Heaven: Escaping Earth or Healing Creation?

In this episode of The Unintentional Heretic, Greg explores the evolution of heaven through Scripture, theology, Greek philosophy, mysticism, and church history—challenging the common assumption that Christianity is primarily about escaping earth for a distant afterlife. Drawing on the Bible, other faith traditions, contemplative spirituality, and modern near-death research, the episode reframes eternal life not as somewhere we eventually go, but as a deeper participation in divine reality already breaking into the present moment.Would love to hear your thoughts!
