Join Kirk E. Miller alongside Bible teacher Nancy Guthrie for meaningful conversation on an all-too-misunderstood aspect of Christian theology: the afterlife. Together, they discuss what the Bible has to say about the so-called intermediate state in distinction from the promise of the resurrection and the New Heavens and New Earth. In so doing, they tackle popular misconceptions about "going to heaven" and explore how these profound truths bring comfort to those who are grieving.
