Heaven is a place The Carpenter prepares for us. In other words it is a built place like the ISS, Disney World or Manhattan, just as we built the Nautilus and...
It is interesting how pervasive the notion of heaven still being "above us" really is in our society. I'm frequently selecting music for a "progressive"...
