Heaven - Part 2 – The Default Destination

Heaven - Part 1 – Why Heaven Matters

All people have a fear of death.  Jesus gives the answer to that fear promising eternal life with Him by grace through faith.  Heaven is where God dwells - but what is it like.  The Bible gives good pictures of heaven - it is good to try to imagine it and hope for it.
