Lesson 1: Looking for a City

This introductory lesson sets the stage for our study on heaven, and what themes we will cover in the coming weeks. By grounding ourselves in the promises of Scripture, from Abraham’s longing for a city with foundations to John’s vision of the New Jerusalem, we will see that heaven is not a vague idea but the certain home of God’s people. This study will help us lift our eyes above the temporary struggles of life and focus on the eternal promises of God.
