Heaven Can't Wait: A Glimpse of the Eternal in the Present

"What if heaven isn't just our destination, and happiness isn't something we wait for, but realities we can begin to live now? In this warm, accessible guide to Christian joy, Fr. Edward Maristany invites readers into a refreshing and deeply hopeful vision of the Chistian life-- one where joy is not postponed until the next world, but encountered right here in the present. With wisdom rooted in Scripture, the saints, and the lived experience of the Church, Fr. Maristany guides us through the spiritual logic of happiness: God's plan for us, the tragedy of sin, the healing power of Christ, and the grace-filled path to sanctity in ordinary life. Along the way, he answers the questions every believer faces. This book is a heartfelt call to live as beloved sons and daughters of God, to find meaning in the moment, and to walk the daily road of faith with confidence, peace, and purpose. If you've ever longed or more than momentary pleasure-- if you want lasting joy and a life that bears eternal fruit-- this book is for you. Because for the Christian, heaven can't wait.
