Heaven (eBook) by Christopher W Morgan and Robert A Peterson

Our culture has a lot to say about heaven. But too much of it is based more on imaginative speculation or "supernatural" experiences than on the Bible itself.

In the latest addition to the Theology in Community series, Christopher Morgan and Robert Peterson have assembled an interdisciplinary team of evangelical scholars to explore the doctrine of heaven from a variety of angles. Among other contributors, Ray Ortlund examines the concept of heaven in the Old Testament, Gerald Bray explores the history of theological reflection about heaven, and Ajith Fernando looks at persecuted saints' special relationship to heaven in the New Testament.

This team of first rate scholars offers modern readers a comprehensive overview of this often misunderstood topic—shedding biblical light on the eternal hope of all Christians.

Part of the Theology in Community series.

Detailed, insightful and accessibly written

I learned so much through reading this book, and have already bought this book for two people who have lost close relatives and want a more detailed picture of what the Bible tells us about Heaven. They too are finding it a really helpful read! It offers a detailed, comprehensive and insightful look at what the Bible tells us about Heaven. The study questions at the back are an excellent addition and make it a great tool to use in a discussion group.
