Surprised by hope rethinking heaven, the resurrection, and the mission of the church N.T. Wright - New York Harper One c2008

Hope for the world -- The hope of the resurrection -- The hope of Heaven -- The hope of Jesus' second coming -- The hope of salvation -- The hope of the Church.

In six transforming, faith-inspiring sessions, premier biblical scholar N.T. Wright reveals the amazing scope of what God's Word has to say about the world to come and the world that is. Whay is heaven really like? Is our main duty as Christians simply to help non-Christians get there? What hope does the gospel hold for this present life, and in what ways does God intend for us to experience that hope personally and spread its healing power to the world around us? Ideal for Bible studies, Sunday School classes, and groups, large or small.
