Randy and Davey discuss why we need a heavenward focus in our suffering, what we actually know (and what we don’t) when it comes to Heaven, and why our theology matters in thinking about life beyond what we can see. 

The clear reality is that this earth, as it is now, is not Heaven. (I think of wars going on around the world, and the death of Randy’s wife Nanci.) So many hurting hearts, in such a broken, pain-filled world.
