Spiritual Theology

Believers know that when we die, we enter heaven and will spend eternity there with God and the saints who have gone before us. But what actually happens in heaven? What are we going to be doing there? Won't it get boring at some point? According to Scripture, a large part of our experience of heaven will be a continual revealing of God's glory. Not just his glory in the moment, but during all of time.

The Christian faith requires faith. That means that believers are sometimes faced with uncertainty. But is all uncertainty bad? Theologian Joshua McNall encourages listeners to reclaim the little word perhaps as a sacred space between the warring extremes of unchecked doubt and zealous dogmatism. To say "perhaps" on certain contested topics means exercising a hopeful imagination, asking hard questions, returning once again to Scripture, and reclaiming the place of holy speculation as we cling to a faith that stands distinct from both pervasive skepticism and abrasive certainty.

Dr. Neale B. Oliver's What's Up in Heaven? takes a deep dive into Scripture to see what the Bible says about Heaven and to show us, convincingly, that not only is death not the end, it's the beginning of a brand-new existence unlike anything we can even imagine. If you're not sure there's a place in Heaven for you or those you love, it's not too late. Humanity has the promise of everlasting life when we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior—and even better, as Dr. Neale illustrates, we have a home with God that will last for all eternity. That home is Heaven.

An exhaustively researched and beautifully told history of God’s miraculous signs and wonders. In our age of constant innovation, technological achievement, and the sad tendency to see ourselves as the captains of our fate, we may be tempted to make little time for miracles, or give little credence to them.
