Hi, I'm Susie Larson.

Thanks for listening to this podcast from Susie Larson Live.

It's only just a matter around.

Welcome to Sissy he's always honored to spend this time with you.

In fact, I look forward to bringing you conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk, the deep in your understanding of God's word, and that heightens your awareness of his very real presence in your life. We have an important show for you today. So here's a question to start us off.

What comes to mind when you think about heaven? What comes to mind when you think about heaven?

Did you know that the honest answer for many people sounds a bit like this? Fog machines,

harps, white togas, and never-ending church service.

Think about that.

If many people, including Christians, really think that this life is actually better than

the one that's to come, well, we'll live as though this life is all there is.

And doesn't it sort of seem like that's the case?

But what if heaven is wonderful beyond your wildest imagination?

And what if how you lived here directly impacts how you live there? I'm so honored to welcome back to the show. Chip Ingram, he joins me today to talk about his important book, the real heaven, what the Bible actually says. And I just got to say it's so gracious of him to join us because he's got a lot going on, this book released some time ago. But to me, it's one of the best books on heaven I've ever read. We're going to get him on in just a moment. Just a quick announcement, only a few days left to sign up for our online study. This summer study, we're going to be working through my book, fully alive, learning to flourish, mind, body, and spirit. It's all about what happens in the soul, happens in the cells. And we're just taking a time for a spiritual reset for some soul restoration. Free to sign up at myfaithradio.com. Once registration closes on July 5th, that's it. Registration is closed because the emails are scheduled then to go out. You can do it without the book. If you want the book, it's under $10 on Amazon right now. I hope you'll join us. I'm really believing that God's going to walk us through some really significant times. Again, more information on the web at my faith radio.com. Let me tell you about my guest. We'll get him on the show. Chip Ingram is a bestselling author, pastor and teacher. He serves as CEO and Teaching Pastor of Living on the Edge,

an international teaching and discipleship ministry. For over 35 years, Chippus Pastored Churches ranging from

60 to 6,000. He served as president of Walk Through the Bible. His passion is helping Christians

really live like Christians. He's helped believers around the world to move from spiritual

spectators to healthy,

authentic disciples of Jesus by living out God's truth in their lives and relationships in

transformational ways. I think this is why we get along so well, because this is my passion as

well. Welcome back to the program. Thanks for making time for us today. My joy. Thanks so much,

Suzie. Looking forward to it. And friends, I want to tell you, we do have five copies of the real heaven, what the Bible actually says. We've got five copies of this hardcover book.
