Connecting This Life to the Next
by Nathan Bierma
P&R Publishing, 2005
This book introduces a vision for daily living that addresses what Christians say they hope for but often don't: eternal life in heaven. We have been misled by historical assumptions and popular prophecies to think of heaven as irrelevant and intimidating, but by reexamining the biblical picture of heaven as terrestrial and urban, and as a relevant resolution to the current cosmic story, we form a framework for living with Christian purpose in our vocation, citizenship, recreation, and families.
...shows the relevance of the Bible's vision of a future transformed creation to the present-day challenges of cultural discipleship.
— Richard Mouw
An engaging, provocative, and practical book on our responsibility to be agents of renewal in the world even while avoiding worldliness ... a must-read.
— Quentin Schultze
