What if the purpose of your life is simpler, and far more daring, than you were ever taught?
Jesus said the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant who sold everything he owned to buy a single pearl. So here is a question almost no one stops to ask. What is the purchase price of heaven? And what are you using to pay it?
The answer is neither gold nor good deeds. It is a gift. God gives it freely to every one of us. And once you see what it is, you will never look at the gospel, or at yourself, the same way again.
Buying Heaven began as one man's answer to an old accusation, that Latter-day Saints are simply trying to "buy their way into heaven." But it grew into something far larger. A fresh, scripturally grounded vision of why we are here at all.
This life, it turns out, is a taste-test. We came to sample good and evil for ourselves, to taste both and discover what we truly want. What we reach for again and again becomes who we are. And who we become reveals where our journey on the other side is meant to begin.
Along the way, this book quietly answers the questions that have troubled believers for generations:
This is not the standard treatment, and it does not pretend to be. Written by a man who joined the Church at sixteen, served a mission, and spent a lifetime wrestling these questions to the ground, Buying Heaven draws on the scriptures, the words of the prophets, and personal insights received over decades. It offers a perspective you likely have not heard before, anchored at every turn in scripture and prophetic witness.
And at its heart, it is a father's love letter to his three sons. Everything he most wants them to understand about life, purpose, and eternity, written down before it was too late to say it.
Perfect for:
You already hold the price of heaven in your hands. The only question is whether you know what it is worth, and whether you are spending it on what lasts.
I wrote this for my sons. Now I am giving it to you. Come and discover what you are truly here to do.
