https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Wld0ARqx_4
Have you ever stared into a sunset and marveled at its beauty? Or perhaps gazed at the stars on a bright, moonlit night? At some point in your life, you may have asked yourself how Heaven would compare, or how life in Heaven might be. Today, Christians and non-Christians alike find themselves wondering what Heaven might look like if it were real and how people would spend eternity if they ever were to go to Heaven. Some claim that Heaven is nothing more than a sea of clouds with frolicking angels, while others still believe that Heaven’s grandeur is impossible to comprehend. But did you know that the Bible goes into great detail about what Heaven will look like, as well as what it holds for us? Watch Pastor Chris Holland unravel the biblical account of Heaven in Episode 8 of Unlocking Bible Prophecies: Digging Deeper! MEET THE HOST:
