Why We Need to Think About Heaven More (Not Less) - with Matt McCollough
Description
In this episode of Theology for the People, Nick Cady sits down with pastor and author Matt McCullough to discuss his new book Remember Heaven.
Building on the themes of his previous book Remember Death, Matt explores how the biblical vision of heaven is meant to shape our lives here and now—not just as a future hope, but as a present motivation for rest, urgency, and faithful discipleship.
Together they talk about:
How our cultural views of heaven often miss the God-centered reality the Bible presents
Why remembering heaven matters in a distracted and comfort-driven world
How heaven gives us peace in anxiety, urgency in mission, and love in community
What the Bible actually says (and doesn’t say) about the afterlife
How the local church functions as a “colony of heaven” in the country of death
This is a hopeful, practical conversation that will encourage you to set your mind on things above and live today in light of eternity.
📘 Remember Heaven is available now wherever books are sold.
