What Is Heaven? - The Inner Life - July 21, 2026
The Inner Life
On today’s show, Fr. Allan Hoffa joins to discuss “what is heaven”? * Gary - Why do you believe God will give you a glimpse of heaven while you're still here on earth? * Break 1 * Will I see my family members in heaven? * When we die, do we wait until the end of time to go to heaven or hell? Where are we when we actually die? * God doesn’t decide whether we go to heaven or hell. Those who have died have chosen heaven or hell. God has just honored their decision. * Break 2 * What is purgatory? * Margaret - Based on what's been said, different people are going to experience God on a different level on how their life was. Why doesn't purgatory bring everybody up to the same level? * Rose - If you go to confession before you pass, why do you still go to purgatory?
