Exploring the Hope of Our Eternal Future with Christ

If we are not in Christ, this life is the best we will ever experience. If we are in Christ, this life is the worst we will ever experience. But amid the hurry and distractions of this life, we’re only dimly aware of the celestial bliss just around the next bend in the road. 

In Finally Home, Dane Ortlund plunges into the word of God and the wisdom of the saints to help us rightly think about heaven, and to draw strength from our coming future more deeply than we ever have before. Writing with the same pastoral warmth and enchanting prose that mark his well-loved books Gentle and Lowly and Deeper, Ortlund speaks directly to the heart, providing insights into what our eternity with Jesus will be like. Finally Home is a timely invitation to lift our focus from the turmoil of our broken world to the wondrous surprises of our eternal home, where the Lord Jesus Christ himself will wipe away every tear from our eyes (Rev. 21:1–5). 

  • A Vision of Eternity: This book prompts readers to wonder at what awaits us in heaven and the joy of dwelling with Jesus forever
  • From the Author of Gentle and Lowly (Over 1 Million Copies Sold): Written by Dane Ortlund, this book is marked with the same pastoral warmth and enchanting prose
  • Wisdom from Figures Throughout Church History: Including Thomas Goodwin, Jonathan Edwards, C. S. Lewis, Richard Baxter, and others 
  • Scripture-Based: Explores passages throughout the whole Bible to arrest readers with the heavenly realities inevitably awaiting believers
