What readers are saying about Heaven…Your Real Home—
Not merely in spite of but actually because of her own suffering, Joni is able to give to us her keen vision of heaven’s joy.
Elisabeth Elliot
Joni Eareckson has a unique gift for stating the profoundest wisdom in the vividest and most warmhearted way, and in Heaven…Your Real Home she excels herself. Theologically, spiritually, and humanly, her modeling from her wheelchair of healthy hope for the Christian’s homeland is pure gold, as powerful as it is poignant. Don’t miss it!

What a wise and warm and wonderful book! It will build up many people’s faith and hope and love for God and Heaven.

Professor of Philosophy, Boston College
As long as I’ve known Joni, her heart has been set on heaven. She pores over the biblical promises with an expectant heart. Her conversation, her songs, and her messages reflect a heavenly preoccupation. Now Joni has collected her thoughts on heaven in this moving book, filled with contagious expectation, rich biblical insight, and the warm glow of heaven itself. Joni, always a gifted artist, paints such a vivid picture of heaven that you’ll get the sense she has lived half her life there.

Step back for a moment, focus your eyes of faith, and then come with Joni into a world you’ve heard about from your youth but have never seen: heaven. You’ll learn what heaven is like and who will be there—and how you can prepare your heart here on earth for the reality of heaven. You just might discover that heaven is closer—and more real—than you’ve ever thought.
My friend Joni Eareckson Tada is one of God’s choice servants of today.

Drawing from her work with the disabled, Joni has given us some of the most poignant images of heaven: a place where she will be on her feet dancing, a place where her mentally challenged friends will receive at last completed minds. Now, in Heaven, she gives a full treatment to one of the most important, yet sadly overlooked, doctrines of Christian faith.
