Will heaven be on earth? from Compelling Truth The Bible refers to both heaven and hell as real places. In a technical sense, these are better understood as the places where the dead are right now. What we commonly think of as “heaven”—the final, eternal abode of enjoyment in God’s presence of those who are His children through Jesus Christ—is the new heavens and new earth.

All 66 Books of the Bible from Over View Bible News flash: the Bible is huge: about 611,000 words long, all divvied up across 66 smaller documents called the “books” of the Bible.

How to Rest in Turbulent Times by Shane Idleman From the COVID crisis to financial burdens, and from fear and isolation to a divided nation, millions are lacking peace and rest. But I believe we can find rest if we look to the right source.
