Pursuing God with Gene Appel
Episode 1008: Joy and Laughter
We are exploring heaven and all God has planned for those who trust Him. We’ve been discovering how heaven is a place of joy and laughter.
Hell is not going to be parties, friends, or fun and games for eternity; it’ll be eternal separation from God and others. Heaven, on the other hand, is anything but a boring place. Everything good in this life that we see now, will be perfect in the unseen life to come. It will be better than you could ever imagine.
