Hey everybody, Greg Laurie here.

You're listening to the Greg Laurie podcast.

And my objective is to deliver, hopefully, compelling

practical insights and faith, culture, and current events

from a biblical perspective to find out more about our

ministry, just go to our website, harvest.org.

So thanks for joining me for this podcast.

Today we have a very special treat in store here.

We're going to speak with a prolific author,

whose name is Randy Alcorn.

Now, if you can be an expert on the topic of heaven,

the topic of the afterlife and the new earth.

He's probably read every book that's been written on the subject.

In addition, he has studied scripture.

And really, I think that his volume on the topic of heaven,

which I have right here, is probably the best book
