Are you going to Heaven? What's Heaven going to be like? Who will be in Heaven? What are we going to do in Heaven? Will we have spiritual bodies? These are just some questions I've been asked since I came to see my Heavenly Father. I decided to dedicate this site on helping answer these questions.
The first question I was challenged concerning this topic was a UMM student. He asked me isn't it going to be boring if we just worship God all the time. This was asked 5 years ago, which I thought he really d idn't reall know God if he thought it would be boring. As one come to know God personally, he or she would be more excited about looking forward to worshiping God! In fact, a Bible verse comes to mind that relates to this....
"Worship God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind"
& "Offer you body as living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God"
The meaning and interpretation of the last scripture above has changed more and more as I grow to know my Heavenly Father. When I first heard this, I interpreted this as worshipping and singing to God, like what we do on Sunday mornings at "church" services. Now I interpret this as how we should use our God-given bodies for his glory, whether it's working at a job using what we've been blessed (gifts, talents, skills, etc...) with or taking care of our physical body-health wise!. We try do this 24/7 on earth, which when we go to Heaven-we'll be doing the same thing-but with our spiritual "heavenly" bodies!

Heaven & Hell Near Death Experiences (NDE)
"Watching an 11 year old boy talk about what he saw and heard after being run over by his Daddy's farm tractor sparked my interest in Near Death Experiences. I remember watching him describe floating out of his body, and entering a white light filled with total love, and seeing and talking with Jesus.
He went on describing what he saw and heard while in the presence of Jesus.
But the thing that convienced me and made me realize that there must be something real about NDE's is when the boy told his mom that Uncle Bob said hello. His mother looked stunned when she heard that! She said that Uncle Bob had died 10 years before the boy was born, and that she had never told him anything about his Uncle Bob!
Ever since hearing the boy tell about his NDE I've watched other people from around the world share simliar stories about what they experience at death.
Some scientists are trying to laugh this off by saying NDE's are just hallucinations from a brain under tremendous stress from injury and trama. But what these scientists are helpless to explain is how these NDE people can re-call and describe in vivid details what they saw and heard while laying dead in the hospital. They shock the doctors with exact details of what the monitoring machines displayed while connected to their body! Many people who have had NDE are able to accurately describe what family members were wearing and talking about even though they were not allowed in the room where the body was being given electrical shocks to try and restart the heart and breathing.

Hear Us From Heaven
"God dropped the idea for this video into my head a few weeks ago. The song is "Hear Us From Heaven" by Jared Anderson. I used some clips from The Passion as well as some images from Bound 4 Life. These images are from silent prayer sieges al over the nation. The prayers also come from the Bound 4 Life website. The main verses for this video are: Before I formed you in your mother's womb I knew you. Before you were born I set you apart. I appointed you a prophet to the nations. (Jeremiah 1:5) If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land. (2 Chronicles 7:14) Jesus, I plead your blood over my sins and the sins of my nation. God, end abortion and send revival to America. Not only America, Lord, but let a fire of revival and repentance be set ablaze across all the countries and continents of this earth. Check out www.bound4life.com"

ETERNITY - PART 1
"Eternity is a powerful evangelistic production that emphasizes the truth about Heaven and Hell and the unconditional love of Christ. It shows through flashback sequences how the choices we make here on earth determine our ultimate destinies. People are able to see themselves on the stage and relate to what the characters are feeling. They can relate to what the character's struggles are and see that there is a way out. Because people's hearts are so open to receive the Gospel, there has never been a better time to reach your community.
Eternity is a ministry that has seen thousands come to know the knowledge and saving power of Jesus Christ. They have responded to the Gospel message and out of repentance, a spirit of brokenness, and the true conviction on sin. There has been testimony after testimony after testimony of marriages restored, people healed, and lives rededicated to the purpose and call of Jesus Christ. Cities, communities, and churches are left with an awesome passion for the extension of God's Kingdom, knowing that God has done something eternal in their midst. "
