This impacting event will move you deeply and leave you enthused, prepared and longing for your heavenly destination. Very few Christians have ever heard a talk on present heaven. As a window into heaven gets opened you’ll discover the Biblical answer to many of the questions surrounding the death of your loved ones and your own ultimate destination including:
David Oliver is based in the Salt & Light family of churches where he works across the churches internationally in a prophetic role. When David & Gill faced the death of their son Joel at the age of 38, following a short and brutal fight with cancer, David set about researching and writing on heaven. Through a thorough and practical examination of scripture, this evening will answer questions, allay fears and have your hearts skipping at the thought of being there. The official tour guide takes the words of Jesus, John, Paul, Daniel and others and explores what scripture says; the possibilities and the facts.

Each year ecumenical partners in a different region are asked to prepare the materials. In 2024, the churches of Burkina Faso are inviting us to join with them in a process of self-reflection as they consider what it means to love our neighbour in the midst of a security crisis. Using the parable of the Good Samaritan the reflections explore how we find our common identity in the experience of God’s love. As well as the need to place love at the centre of the quest for peace and reconciliation.
You can download the reflection booklet from HERE
The parable of the Good Samaritan is found in Luke 10:25-37 Read the chapter and passage (NIV) and also listen and watch a dramatization on Bible.is HERE
