Have you ever thought to yourself... Is this all there is to the Christian life? Where is the abundant life Jesus promised? Is God mad at me? Will I ever measure up to His standards? You're a child of God. You've got your ticket to heaven and know your mansion is waiting for you on the other side. However, it's right here on earth, in your own home, that you could use some help. But God seems a million miles away. Having grown up with a legalistic, works-based version of Christianity, Wendy Lee Kremer struggled with these thoughts for many years. She says, "I learned all the dos and don'ts, but I had no power to do the dos!" After a devastating divorce that left her a single mom with two young children, she turned her back on God--until a near-death experience abruptly halted her escape. She knew God had rescued her and given her a second chance. Wendy became tenacious in discovering the truth of God's love and grace--searching for the secrets to living God's kingdom lifestyle in power, peace, and prosperity. Now, she is passionate about helping others realize their unique, supernatural identity. She teaches how to claim their inheritance as a coheir with Jesus Christ and use their influence as a king and priest in God's kingdom (Revelation 1:6). Get ready for a revelation that will knock your socks off! More Than a Ticket to Heaven explores your rights and privileges as a child of God. You'll enjoy 101 days discovering how to apply God's promises to practical everyday life situations, so you'll always stay in peace and power. You'll courageously pull back your shoulders and stand up taller when you realize the irrevocable authority God has given you as His representative, His king on earth. You'll find yourself boldly enforcing your inheritance in the kingdom and not backing down in the face of opposition. You'll discover that salvation is more than just a ticket to heaven. It is the power to bring heaven to earth!

In heaven we shall know everlasting rest and the full measure of our inheritance. Though no eye has seen what God has prepared for us, from Revelation 21-22 we can understand a little of what heaven will feel like. We shall know a new freedom, economy, purity, peace, and so much more. Those will be the simple experiences. The greater experiences will be in everlasting love, most especially in an everlasting marriage and an enduring intimate community. Likewise, we shall know a growing and everlasting security within our grand heritage within God’s promises and in the work of Christ. Yet the greatest experience of all is also the hardest to understand, because it is the farthest removed from our earthly experience. The greatest experience of all will be that—for the rest of our everlasting loving lives—we will share in the very life and glory of our dynamic and loving God, our loving Father and Abba. The greatest experience in heaven will be the very life and light that we share with God Himself, so very personal and loving to the uttermost.

Bestselling and award-winning author Lee Strobel interviews experts about the evidence for the afterlife and offers credible answers to the most provocative questions about what happens when we die, near-death experiences, heaven, and hell. We all want to know what awaits us on the other side of death, but is there any reliable evidence that there is life after death? Investigative author Lee Strobel offers a lively and compelling study into one of the most provocative topics of our day. Through fascinating conversations with respected scholars and experts--a neuroscientist from Cambridge University, a researcher who analyzed a thousand accounts of near-death experiences, and an atheist-turned-Christian-philosopher--Strobel offers compelling reasons for why death is not the end of our existence but a transition to an exciting world to come. Looking at biblical accounts, Strobel unfolds what awaits us after we take our last breath and answers questions like: Is there an afterlife? What is heaven like? How will we spend our time there? And what does it mean to see God face to face? With a balanced approach, Strobel examines the alternative of Hell and the logic of damnation, and gives a careful look at reincarnation, universalism, the exclusivity claims of Christ, and other issues related to the topic of life after death. With vulnerability, Strobel shares the experience of how he nearly died years ago and how the reality of death can shape our lives and faith. Follow Strobel on this journey of discovery of the entirely credible, believable, and exhilarating life to come.

I'm not famous. I'm not a theologian. I'm not a Bible scholar. I'm not a pastor. I'm just a regular guy who tries his best to make sense out of the world he's living in, including my spiritual world. To most people, I'm just a nobody. But I'm a nobody who questions what people tell me until I can come to peace with it. I don't take anything at face value. That's the way God wired me. The first time I read the Bible, cover to cover, I had questions, a lot of them, forty typewritten pages worth. For instance, why does God get so angry? Does God ever change his mind? Is there only one way to get to heaven? Is it possible to please God? Did even Judas get saved? What about reincarnation? Will heaven disappear? Do you talk to dead people? Can you trust the Bible? Is Jesus really the son of God? And I had questions about things you hear many Christians say, like "God is in control," but is he? I had hundreds of these questions, and I wanted answers. That's what this book is about. It has been seventeen years in the making. I wanted answers, so I searched for them. I met with my pastor. I read books he recommended. I researched various theological views from trusted online resources. There were times I speculated my own answers because I couldn't find anything else to hang my hat on. Sometimes there simply were no answers. But I found out that it's not about getting the answers that's most important anyway. It's the search for the answers. Join me in that search. You might just find answers to some of your own questions.
