Theology of the New Heavens and New Earth: A Deep Dive into Hope and Restoration

Join us as we delve into a profound theological exploration of the new heavens and the new earth. Embracing themes of hope, restoration, and redemption, this session discusses how the promise of God's eternal kingdom strengthens, encourages, and instills joy amidst life's sorrows. Key topics include the day of the Lord, the dual nature of Jesus' coming, the renewing power of God's glory, and the complete restoration of our relationships, hearts, bodies, and even the physical earth. Highlighted by personal testimonies and inspired by works like John Eldredge's 'All Things New,' this teaching offers an insightful and uplifting perspective on our ultimate destiny as believers.
