HEAVEN AND ETERNAL LIFE

Is death something to be feared? Or can we look it in the face with confidence, knowing that it is just the beginning to a whole new life with God that will last forever?
These books help provide answers.

Note: As I write this in August, 2009, we are still recovering from the suicide of our estranged adult daughter, Sarah. I have told her story on other sites. The first is Sarah: The Suicide of a Child.  The second is a blog I wrote the night I came home from Sarah's memorial service, which had taken us out of town so that she could be buried beside her brother in Long Beach, CA. What Do You Say When You Bury a Daughter?

Heaven: Better By Far: Answers to Questions About the Believer's Final Hope   by J. Oswald Sanders. The author, as he began to get nearer his own time to die, began to study the subject of his eternal home in the Bible. Here are the questions he addresses in this book:

What is death?
How do we gain entrance to Heaven?
Is Heaven a place or a state of mind?
Will we know one another in Heaven?
What will our resurrection bodies be like?
What will we do in Heaven?
What will Heaven be like?
Will mansions be waiting for us?
Who will receive rewards?

The Promise of Heaven: Discovering Our Eternal Home by Douglas Connelly. InterVarsity Press, 2000, Hardcover with jacket. A small, attractive book suitable to give as a gift. This thought-provoking book helps us  focus on what the Bible has revealed about Heaven and being face to face with the Lord. What Mr. Connelly shares will encourage and challenge us as  we seek to live faithful lives in preparation for the day we meet Jesus and give our account of our lives to Him. As Mr. Connelly presents each characteristic of Heaven that he finds presented in the Bible he follows it with a section called "Living Now in the Light of Not Yet." that helps us apply the new insights to our lives now so that we will be more prepared for Heaven when we get there. I highly recommend this books to those who long to hear Jesus say: "Well done, thou good and faithful servant."
120 pages + notes. Cat. #IVP-22313. $10.79-D

 

 

 

We're in the Pacific Time Zone
Our normal office hours when we answer the phone are 10: 30 AM - 4 PM Monday - Friday.
We answer email and ship at other times, but normally take Sundays off.
 

We prefer you ask your questions about products and availability by e-mail (barbsbooks@sbcglobal.net), since that gives us more time to prepare a thoughtful answer and keeps us from playing phone tag. Please remember to put our email address in your address book if you have a spam filter or you won't ever get your answer unless you also leave a phone number. We cannot usually tell you immediately over the phone if a book is here. We have to walk two blocks to check the warehouse, so I usually have to call you back or email you anyway.  We do check our e-mail frequently throughout the day when we are at home. If we should be out, and you leave a message on our answering machine, we sometimes cannot hear the phone number clearly to return your call. Those are some reasons why we recommend you email us first. If you want us to call you, please leave your phone number and time zone.
When you do email us, please do not leave the subject blank or just say "Hi" or "Hello" as the subject. We delete those before opening because a lot of spam messages look like that. 
We have supplied a subject line in the link provided above that will guarantee your mail will be opened fast.
Or call (800)925-8587 (not before 10 AM or after 10 PM Pacific Time)
