I always enjoy anytime I get to have a conversation with Sean McDowell, who teaches at Biola/Talbot and has a very engaging and helpful YouTube channel on apologetics. Sean and I did another Q&A on Heaven recently, with some different questions and answers.
- How did your belief in Heaven frame your loss of your wife? (1:00)
- How do you deal with doubt? (3:31)
- What gives you hope? (6:02)
- Is Heaven real? (8:26)
- How will Heaven be exciting if there’s no risk? (13:25)
- Are there animals in Heaven? (16:40)
- How about our pets? (20:15)
- How can we enjoy Heaven if some of our loved ones are not there? (22:53)
- Can people sin in Heaven? (26:53)
- Will there be external temptation? (29:50)
- Are there sports in Heaven? (34:12)
- Will we eat and drink in Heaven? (38:00)
- Will we be able to fly? (41:02)
- How will our bodies be similar/different in the eternal Heaven? (45:06)

Sean kindly mentioned my book The Promise of the New Earth, which combines teaching about Heaven, with beautiful photography. It’s available from our online store and from Amazon.
