Exploring the Life-Changing Impact of Heavenly Mindedness Though they’re destined for eternal glory, many Christians languish in earthly mindedness. Having never set their sights on things above, they lack hope in adversity and vibrancy in their faith. Where can believers find joy and inspiration for everyday life? It’s in the already-and-not-yet reality of heaven. Following the unexpected loss of his firstborn child, pastor Cameron Cole’s daily focus shifted drastically heavenward. He discovered that an intentional eternal mindset can bring meaning and joy to every Christian’s life. In this heartfelt, theologically rich book, Cole draws from his personal story of grief, the apostle Paul’s letters, and the examples of believers throughout history to demonstrate how heavenly mindedness fosters contentment, hope in suffering, motivation for missions and evangelism, commitment to morality and ethics, and no fear in death. Informative and Captivating: Cole combines personal stories with a biblical theology of Paul’s letters about heaven Offers Hope and Joy: A great resource for those who are grieving or need spiritual encouragement Practical: Features a personal note at the end of each chapter that explains how to apply an eternal mindset
