Heaven–The Undiscovered Country
Every person who has ever lived has wondered about the place beyond mortality. Shakespeare called it the undiscovered country. God's word tells us about our souls -- our bodies in heaven.

Join me today as I interview Dr. Ron Rhodes, author of Heaven: The Undiscovered Country. Ron is the president of Reasoning from the Scriptures.
Note: Heaven: The Undiscovered Country has since been updated and released with the title What Happens After Life? 21 Amazing Revelations About Heaven and Hell - we encourage you to read this fascinating book!
