The Great Divorce 11 - Facing Heaven and Hell

April 08, 2018

Langdon Palmer

What happens after we die ? Is that just the end, or is there an after life ? Are Heaven and Hell myths or reality ? If they are real, how could an all loving, all powerful God allow anyone to be in Hell ? What we believe about eternity will drive the priorities and stance we take towards our lives here and now. Today we jump into difficult waters and try to get some grasp of eternity. We draw from multiple scriptures and the picture painted in C.S. Lewis’ The Great Divorce (in chapters 9, 13 and 14) to try to understand what awaits us on the other side of death.
