“I think the problem we have had comes from the wrong conception of heaven. Once you start to think of heaven not as a place miles up in the sky, but as God’s dimension of reality that intersects with outs (but in a strange way that is to us unpredictable and uncontrollable), you realize that for Jesus to go into the heavenly dimension is not for Him to go like a spaceman miles up into space somewhere, and not for Him to be distant or absent now. It is for Him to be present but in the mode in which heaven is present to us. That is, it’s just through an invisible screen, but present and real.”

Boyd also presents us with incredible data on poverty.
