Attaining Heaven: What It Is and How to Get There

Here is the one book you need to grasp the illimitable joys of Heaven - and to discover how to get there. You will learn here what Scripture unveils and what the Church's greatest saints have written about Heaven and its joys, as well as the reason you'll experience bliss, happiness, delights of every kind, satisfaction of all desires, joy unbounded, and pleasure in Heaven.

While any true understanding or appreciation of the joys of Heaven is impossible to us, this book unpacks the many hints of Heaven from Scripture and the saints to provide abundant matter for your meditations. You'll learn that Heaven consists almost entirely of spiritual ideas that cannot be grasped without meditation -- and even then only by one who is not preoccupied with this world and its goods.

Fr. J. P. McCarthy does more than explain what Heaven is - he provides clear guidance on what you can do to secure it. You will learn what to pray for, how to flourish in the virtues of faith, hope
