About this episode
This episode discusses the different meanings of 'heaven' in Scripture during a sermon at Broken Arrow First Church of the Nazarene.
Sunday morning service at Broken Arrow (OK) First Church of the Nazarene, November 11, 1991. This message outlines three main usages of the word "heaven" in Scripture and what is meant by each one: God's realm here on earth, the sky, and God's dwelling place above. There are Scriptural examples of each and some acknowledgement of the confusion over them as well, eventually landing in John 14. The message concludes with a story about the Stipp family's foreign exchange student from Japan. The story is abruptly cut off and the message and is incomplete, but seemed 'complete enough' to publish.
