Heaven

Publisher's summary

For the past 25 years, Heaven has inspired us to live well on Earth even as we long for eternity. Drawing on Scripture, Joni Eareckson Tada answers the deepest questions of our hearts about what heaven will be like, who we will see there, and who we will be there. 

This updated and expanded edition of Joni's classic brings a new understanding of what heaven is, along with new mysteries and hopes. Now in her late 60s, Joni is much closer to heaven than she was when she first wrote the book in her mid-40s. And she says, “I will soon - soon! - hear His voice, look into His eyes, and feel His embrace. And He will say, ‘Welcome home, Joni.’” It is from this vantage point that Joni now speaks about how we can live for Jesus as we look forward to our real home. 

As a quadriplegic for 50 years, Joni has also endured cancer and extreme ongoing pain. She doesn’t speak lightly when she reminds us that, “God knows the precise tools to use in your life to cut, facet, cleanse, and refine the diamond that is your eternal soul.... Every good thing that God has ever given you will last for all eternity - including the best part of every affliction.” 

In the audiobook companion PDF download, Joni includes additional reflections correlating to each chapter that speak to where she is now, higher up on the hill of perspective. She calls these thoughts Climbing Higher, and that’s her invitation to all who make this journey with her. 

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Joni outdid herself again!

This is no ordinary book. It isn't one that you rush through because you want to get to the end. It needs to be digested in small amounts so you can get the full meaning of heaven. I can't think of a better person to describe Heaven before she actually gets there, than Joni. She is always so real and down to earth and I mean that in a good way. I have begun to understand a little about my future home and I am already longing for it. It has also made me realize that I need to redeem the time and clothe myself in Christ daily so I can do the work he wants me to do for the time is short.

Wonderful!

Love Joni and Ken! I have purchased several of her/their, books.
I highly recommend anything written by this amazingly humble, courageous godly couple. What wonderful examples. May God continue to bless them, and the ministry of Joni and Friends.❤️🙏🙌

Love this author

Joni is so encouraging. I love her personality and honesty. She gives me hope. Thank you Joni

An encouraging

Joni’s joy is contagious, there is a lot to ponder and be encouraged as you read this book.

Superb

This is an excellent presentation of the Christian possibilities of heaven. It is rooted in the Bible but mixed with an encouraging imagining of what the Bible is leading us to consider. It's strength has probably arisen from the life story of the author who has a godly right to focus on our future. The problems of health eventually cause the Christian to more fully turn their eyes on Jesus and heaven. This author has been looking that way in the midst of her current life and ministry. It is a blessing to read and listen to.

loved it!

Joni made me stretch my mind in ways I had never considered heaven. what a treasure.

Just wonderful, Joni is an inspiration.

Loved it, great to hear Joni's beautiful voice. Inspirational as always, now I want to listen to it again.
