Heres Peter Chattaway doing that rare and wonderful moviegoer trick: Paying attention. And I really, really love this: Finally, on a theological note, I have to note that it is kind of odd that a movie on this subject was released just in time for Easter, because the whole point of Easter is the bodily resurrection of Christ, which points forward to the bodily resurrection of us all. In casual speech, people often talk about going to Heaven or going to Hell when we die, but Christianity has always been a bit more complicated than that, and has always emphasized the physicality of our new bodies and the new Earth in which we will live. What exactly is meant by all that is a bit mysterious, but the fact that it has already happened — to Jesus — gives us some idea of what to look forward to. So, yes, Heaven is for real. But it is not our final destination.
