Reading Heaven and New Jerusalem by Jarod Murphey was a deeply refreshing and eye-opening experience. So often, the concept of Heaven is reduced to vague imagery. But Murphey invites us to return to Scripture and rediscover a far more vivid, purposeful, and exciting vision of eternity. What struck me most was the idea that Heaven is not a passive existence, but one filled with life, creativity, and meaningful purpose. The New Jerusalem, as Murphey describes it, is a real city—radiant, physical, and central to God's plan for the Millennial Kingdom. His interpretation of Revelation and other prophetic texts paints a future that feels both awe-inspiring and deeply personal. I recommend you read this book. It will open your mind and remind you of what we have to look forward to as Christians.
