If you're a child of God, you do not just "go around once" on Earth. You don't get just one earthly life. You get another-one far better and without end. You'll inhabit the New Earth! You'll live with the God you cherish and the people you love as an undying person on an undying Earth.

For the Christian, death is not the end of adventure but a doorway from a wold where dreams and adventures shrink, to a world where dreams and adventures forever expand.

Materialism is a fruitless attempt to find meaning outside of God. When we try to find ultimate fulfillment in a person other than Christ or a place other than heaven, we become idolaters. According to Scripture, materialism is not only evil; it is tragic and pathetic.

By trusting Christ's redemptive work for us, we can enter into what we long for: the happiness found only in God.

Seeking happiness apart from a right relationship God is like trying to turn on a light that's unplugged.

Christ offers us the incredible opportunity to trade temporary goods and currency for eternal rewards.
