Getting To Heaven: A Kaleidoscope Of Stories

Do you have an image of heaven? Most people have a vague notion of billowy clouds and singing angels, but, when pressed, they have little idea about what awaits them in the afterlife. When asked for more details, many people are evasive-they don't want to think about it, because thinking of heaven inevitably means thinking about death. Author and religious philosopher Laurie McRobert argues this is a mistake. Those who develop a clear image of heaven and sustain it throughout life can meet death in peace. Individuals and the medical community alike are more and more concerned with dying well-of meeting and fully experiencing dying as a final, moving part of life. Having a clear image of heaven helps you face the dying experience lucidly and without fear, living life to the fullest extent, even at the end. McRobert doesn't claim to prove heaven exists-each of us must choose whether to not to believe. Nor does she claim the image of heaven you create will match reality. Instead, she offers a series of moving shorts stories and tales to show how a deeply personal idea of heaven comforts and prepares us for our final moments on earth.
