Do you have a guardian angel? Do you believe there's a heaven, a beautiful destination beyond this life? What about the other side of that coin? Are there demons, fallen angels? Do you believe in hell? A recent survey found that while 74 percent of Americans believe there is a heaven, only 59 percent there is a hell. Interesting, isn't?

We all have thoughts and beliefs about these spiritual matters, but where do those beliefs come from? These topics are casually, matter-of-factly included in movies, television, and books all the time, fueling our thoughts and imaginations, but perhaps clouding the issues too.

Because we all think about these things and wonder about these things, we're going to address those things from a biblical perspective in our upcoming sermon series, "Angels and Demons, Heaven and Hell." The topics, week-by-week will be:

July 25 - Angels and Demons

August 1 - Heaven and Hell

August 8 - The Intermediate State (no, we're not referring to purgatory)

Join us as we look to the scriptures together to better understand this world in which we live and the worlds that perhaps lie beyond this one.
