Do you know what the Bible teaches about heaven? Are you sure? Jesus told the thief on the cross that he would be with him in 'Paradise'. Jesus also talked a lot about the 'kingdom of heaven'. Is that Paradise? The apostle Paul mentioned a place called the 'third heaven'. And, of course, in Revelation a place called the 'new Jerusalem' is mentioned. Confused? Is this all the same place? How many heavens are there? In this short article I want to clear up any confusion you might have. If one does not know what these terms mean, the Bible can be very confusing.

New Parables to Ponder: 12 Stories to Spark Spiritual Questions
I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world. -from a prophecy in the songs of Asaph ***** Jesus is famous for teaching with parables, earthly stories with heavenly meanings, as people call them. But if you read the eye witness accounts closely, you'll find that Jesus made a point never to explain what the parables meant to the crowds of people. Why? The power of learning a spiritual truth is not from someone giving you the answer, but when you wrestle with the question and find the answer for yourself. Jesus' parables have been over-analyzed for millennia, so it's hard to read one these days without already knowing the meaning before you begin. This book attempts to craft new parables, but without just giving you the hidden meaning. It's a puzzle wrapped in a story just waiting for you to dig up your own answers.Complete

Experiencing Moments with my First Love ✔️
This book seeks to share how to remain in love with Jesus and strengthen one's relationship with Him. Unlike any other relationship, where a partner is not meant to be shared or have a romantic connection with someone else, a relationship with Jesus is meant to be shared with everyone. Each chapter of this book is designed to draw you closer to Jesus by encouraging personal moments with Him-not just for a portion of your day but for your entire life. I pray that you come to know Jesus more deeply, fall more in love with Him, and develop a stronger relationship with Him until He comes again. "So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God because our Lord Jesus Christ has made us friends of God." -Romans 5:11 𝗧𝗼 𝗚𝗼𝗱 𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗹𝗼𝗿𝘆!
