I was able to read a portion of your book Tell Me About Heaven to my Kindergarten class this week, the morning before a boy from our school died from Leukemia. God used your ministry in perfect timing to help them understand that the young man is in a better place, in the presence of God. — T. H.

Rich Stearns says, "This book will shatter the way you understand the faith/works debate. It should be required reading for every serious Christian and will change your life -- if you let it." —Randall Murphree, Crosswalk.com, September 20, 2003

I just finished this book last night. I've been a believer for 45 years and a Bible Study teacher for 12, [and] I came away with a much better understanding of God and of Scripture. –D.P.

God's sovereignty doesn't mean meticulous control of every event that occurs. It does mean that God is free to meticulously control everything if he so chooses. This was one of the most refreshing books on the subject that I've read, and I've read a lot. Alcorn writes with graciousness toward all sides and a deep love of God. –T.F.

Randy Alcorn (Heaven), director of Eternal Perspective Ministries, serves as a guide on the road toward true happiness and fulfillment in this hefty but appealing tome. 

Whether you know your Bible or not, this is a great way to get a child or young adult to become interested in their Scriptures. I use to read church comics when I was younger and I was encouraged to pick up my Bible and read the passages. Comics are not a bad thing (my first books were comics. That's what kept me encouraged to read. Also, the way the format of comics is set up, the storylines are in depth). I've bought mine in hopes of inspiring some young adults in my life! —R.R.

Randy Alcorn is a talented story teller and a godly pastor and friend and his heart is throughout this book, because his heart reflects the heart of Jesus. Of course Randy had a great story to work with, and the I believe he also had the leading of the Holy Spirit of God, but his re-telling of the writings by the Apostle Paul, is artful, masterful, and most important of all, Biblical. —Roger Manning
