College Ave Podcast

What really happens the moment you die? In this episode, Pastor Chris Hilken breaks down what the Bible actually says about life after death; what it means to be "with the Lord" without a physical body, and why heaven looks less like harps and clouds and more like a renewed, physical earth. Walking though Hebrews 10 verse-by-verse, Chris explains why the Catholic doctrine of purgatory doesn't hold up under biblical scrutiny and what Scripture says happens to the soul immediately after death. The episode closes with one of Christianity's toughest questions: how can a loving God send anyone to hell?
