Beyond Heaven's Door By Max Lucado
Beyond Heaven's Door
By Max Lucado
One of the smaller of Max's books I have read, yet this had the Biggest impact.
Max openly and honestly shares the bible and how it says what Heaven will be like.
There are many rooms in my Father's House; I would not tell you this if it were not true. I am going there to prepare a place for you. After I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me so that you may be where I am. (John:2-3)
Max talks about us having new bodies.
corruption, dishonor and weakness- changing to incorruption,glory and power.
Max questions us.. can we argue with these words? I know I can't.
Another question? Can you imagine a world with out sin? If you can.. than you can imagine Heaven.
Earlier I said that this book hit me BIG... well I am broken.. in many ways.. as we all are.
Reading this book has helped me to see that yes one day I will run with 2 legs.. both of my own body and not as now one that is man made...
He will transfigure these wretched bodies of ours into copies of his glorious body (philppians 3:21 TJB
This little book is a new friend..
****Disclaimer- I revieved this book through Booksneeze.com for free. I give my review in return. I am not paid for reading and/or reviewing this book.

I have read many of Beth Wiseman’s books. This was a very
good book showing forgiveness.
