Additional Info
The first complete edition of Kreeft’s very popular work includes seven unpublished chapters, along with an important appendix which demonstrates why it is reasonable to ask specific questions about heaven. Kreeft provides a look at the nature of heaven that offers all readers a refreshingly clear, theologically sound, and always fascinating glimpse of that “undiscovered country.” The author’s engaging and informative account thoughtfully answers such intriguing questions as:
How can we know what heaven is like? Will we all be equal in heaven? What will we do in heaven? Will we feel sorrow in heaven for those in hell? Why must we have bodies in heaven? Is there sex in heaven? Will we know everything in heaven? What age will we be in heaven? Are their animals in heaven? How big is heaven? How will we recognize each other in heaven? Does heaven begin now?
Kreeft combines solid scholarship with a lively ability to communicate his findings. He speaks to the heart and mind, blending contemporary thinking and classical views to give us an unexcelled look at one of the most popular, yet least understood, subjects in religion.
