Most of us see no further than the horizons of this world. To correct our shortsightedness, God prescribes a vision correction that allows us to look through the lens of eternity. 

This issue includes: Why an Eternal Perspective Changes Everything by Randy Alcorn, Spend Your Day with Eternity in Mind by Adoniram Judson, 25 Years of God's Faithfulness to EPM: An Interview with Randy and Nanci Alcorn, and more.  

I encourage you to read through this great post by Kevin DeYoung, "40 Questions for Christians Now Waving Rainbow Flags," then consider sharing it.

In this three-minute video, I talk about the artificial distinction made by many Bible-believing Christians between happiness and joy. (I address this in my book Happiness, which will release this October.)
