Life Beyond Heaven invites you on an exhilarating journey through the vibrant, colorful landscape of eternity—a landscape richly portrayed in scripture as brimming with activity, achievement, and excitement. It is the same journey that took the author, Dan Lee, from apathetic Christian to impassioned believer.
With careful attention to the biblical text, he shows us that the real eternity is far more than playing harps in an ethereal, ultra-serene heaven. Instead, eternity will unfold on a refreshed Earth that overflows with creativity, adventure, and great opportunity for vital impact on the world around us.
Life Beyond Heaven reveals how you can start shaping your eternity now—so that when you arrive, you will be empowered by God to change the fabric of nations and create the future Kingdom of Light. Scripture’s bright vision of eternity, and all you can accomplish there, has the capacity to supercharge your spiritual motivation.
This is a slightly oversized book, because it is part workbook … with over 50 pages of interactive material.
“Magnificent! … provocative and challenging … refreshing and full of hope. It is like reading the missing chapters of a captivating story … [Dan] has exposed the ‘biggest why’ – the ‘ultimate why’ – ‘the why that trumps all other whys’.”
– Tom Otley, former Senior Vice President, Dale Carnegie Training
“Powerful. Thought-provoking. I laughed; I cried; I got a spiritual kick in the butt. … An exciting journey … provides a shocking, yet biblically supported, view of the future – the missing link we humans all unconsciously seek.”
– Betsi Bixby, author of multiple books, including Professional Performance 360 with Richard Branson
“This book soars! — and lifted me up with it. Beautifully written, easy to read … If you want to replace your image of a ‘drab’ heaven … Life beyond Heaven is a must-read.”
– Katharine Decker, former Christian book editor and Anglican missionary
“I love the twist it has on Heaven being much more than an eternal destination … It was inspiring to me … It will inspire Christians to ‘get back in the game’.” – Mark Cole, CEO of the John Maxwell Co.
“Extremely exciting and motivating. … Christians could be handed the earth exactly as it is at the moment of Christ’s return … with all the challenges we would face and the creativity with which we would respond.”
– David Ware, retired, pastor and creator of The Template, a blueprint for full-spectrum ministry
“Excellent for those open to the biblical perspective on life and eternity … Overcomes the dualism that can exist with the popular understanding of ‘earth’ and ‘heaven’.”
