Is there a more important topic than that? Jesus Christ had much to say about heaven, hell, and who goes where. It was one of his favorite topics. And for good reason. Don’t you want to know where you will spend eternity? In Luke 7:36-50 we find the Son of God having dinner with a Pharisee named ...

In God Will See You Through This, author and teacher Dr. Jim Garlow humbly journeys alongside you to share twenty-six of the most life-altering lessons he’s learned.
