heaven at last?

Last week we finished our look at heaven and to some extent hell, all stemming from Tom Wright's book Surprised by Hope.

This book proved hard to summarise! so I won't try that here (also I have yet to read it). For me the main thing to come out of this was that creation is basically good, that this world is not going to be swept away and replaced by heaven, rather the image is of this world being redeemed & transformed as will people. So what we do here and now is important here and now, the possibility of heaven does not stop us caring and acting for justice in this world.

My thoughts anyway... please feel free to comment/disagree etc.
