This book was a great resource, especially for our introspective 11 year old. She was able to read it on her own and ponder the chapters. It gave her great comfort to know that because of Grandpa\u2019s faith in Christ, he has a promise of eternity in Heaven\u2014free from any more pain or suffering. She also likes to read that Heaven is going to be exciting and active\u2014not a bunch of cloud-sitting and harp playing. In fact, she said, \u201cNow that I\u2019ve learned more about what heaven will be like, I\u2019m a little jealous that Grandpa gets to go so soon.\u201d I highly recommend for any family in a similar situation.<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<p>I just turned 40, and for some reason I began to struggle with feelings of \u201cHeaven will be boring.\u201d I felt the Spirit of God reassure me of its real ness and greatness. I recommend this book!<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<p>I absolutely love this book! I have a progressive disease and worry about my young child growing up without his mom. I read this book first and found great comfort in what it has to say about Heaven. I appreciate all the references to scripture so you can look things up for yourself if you choose. I will now begin reading this to my son so he will have a better understanding of what Heaven is all about.<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<p>\u2026Having grown up in the church, I\u2019ve heard about Heaven so many times and that\u2019s \u201cwhere\u201d we get to spend eternity \u201cpraising God\u201d and such. And that was all fine for me \u2026 until my dad was killed suddenly in a boating accident. Then, just knowing I was \u201cgoing to Heaven\u201d was just not enough for me. And, the more I searched the Scriptures, the more confused I became. I was hopeless and had resigned myself to believing (well, I had been misled by the Evil One) that we would have no idea who people were and heaven was this sort of intangible, mystical place that I was *supposed* to be excited about. I wasn\u2019t. In my heart, I was fatherless and I could have cared less about Heaven if that\u2019s all that it was. \u2026I bought this book for my kids since dealing with death had hit them at such an early age, they always have questions and always felt so incapable of answering their questions\u2026until this book! Thank you, Mr. Alcorn, for giving hope to this hopeless mom!<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<p>My family has been studying both the original\u00a0<em>Heaven<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Heaven for Kids<\/em>\u00a0since our littlest died in February. Knowing the truth and joys of Heaven and the New Earth which are waiting for those who profess Christ, is the BIGGEST source of comfort for me as a bereaved mother. \u2026This is the BEST book for learning about Heaven and creating an excellent stage from which to imagine the beauty of eternity with the Lord.<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<p>My youngest son passed away last June at the tender age of 5. My other son has not talked about his death much, so I bought this book. I think my son thought that talking about my other son\u2019s death and Heaven would make me sadder\u2026 This book opened up discussions between us that never would have happened otherwise. He is almost 10, and I think this book described Heaven perfectly for his age.<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<p>I bought 2 books for my 4 grandchildren\u2026Their grandpa, my husband, passed away 7 months ago. The sons can\u2019t seem to talk about their grief and don\u2019t have a strong church background although they all started attending regularly a year ago. So, the sons don\u2019t know much about heaven. They are at least able to share cheery stories about their dad when we\u2019re together. When I gave the books to the girls, they dove into it right away. It helped open the door to conversation about where Grandpa is\u2026in Heaven.<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<p>My kids and I have read this several times. AMAZING for kids and adults!! This book will leave you EXCITED about Heaven!!<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<p>Though I\u2019m far from being a kid, I enjoyed listening to this book and gaining insight about Heaven. I bought the print copy for my 8-year-old nephew because he had a lot of questions about Heaven. The book answered his questions and calmed his fears. I recommend it to anyone seeking Bible-based answers to questions about heaven.<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<p>I wanted my children to not fall into the same misunderstandings I had. I read this aloud to my 3rd grader and Kindergartner. My 8 year old especially was eager to have his questions answered, and now we all look forward to Heaven together since we understand it better.<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<p>My 9-year-old grandson had questions about Heaven and this book has been a wonderful resource in answering his questions using the Bible verses and explanations that he can understand\u2026 I find this time with him talking about this topic and God as a blessing and something I will cherish.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3 align=\"center\">From Eternal Perspective Ministries: Get an Additional 10% Off<\/h3>\n<p>Through April 2022, we are offering 10% off our already-discounted prices on <a href=\"https:\/\/epm.us8.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=6f6b2b86114c020cf73121fb0&amp;id=68fd1ca0ba&amp;e=4399ebfe06\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" class=\" decorated-link\"><strong>Randy\u2019s books and products<\/strong><\/a>, including\u00a0<em>Heaven for Kids<\/em>!
