Why I Want to Go to Heaven
August 15, 2026

Guest Pastor Dave Stone explores the promise of heaven and eternal life with Christ, drawing from John 14 and Revelation 21. We discover that Jesus's promise to prepare a place for us isn't a vague hope but a solid foundation to hold onto amid life's uncertainties. We learn that our earthly bodies are temporary tents while an eternal home awaits, and one day we will know God fully, face to face, rather than through the dim reflection we experience now. And we are challenged to live with heaven in mind, recognizing that our true citizenship is in heaven and that Jesus himself—not a place or activity—is what makes heaven truly heaven.

Where does God meet us? Throughout Scripture, he meets his people in real places—mountains, deserts, seas, and the temple. Each place teaches us something about who he is. Join us for The Places Where God Meets Us, a six-week series exploring how these spaces point forward to Jesus, the one who meets us still.
