What do we know about "St. Peter's district"? We're all fascinated with the subject of heaven. Every one of us has loved ones there; I assume we all would like to spend eternity there ourselves. So let's learn from God's word about his home.

There's a reason you and I encounter sharks at sea and sharks on land--our world does not run the way it was intended.

As we continue the Lenten season's remembrance of Jesus' death and resurrection, let's think this week about what his sacrifice has done for us in eternity.
