Overview
A Universal Question, thoughtfully answered!
What do you think: Will we see our dogs and cats in the hereafter? Does God's plan for eternity include the created nonhuman world? Franciscan friar and popular writer Father Jack Wintz brings a love for all creation and infectious enthusiasm to the serious task of exploring answers to these long-asked questions,
In Will I See My Dog in Heaven? Father Jack admits that no one really knows what God has in mind for us in the next life. But in ten thoughtful chapters, he lines up evidence from the Scriptures, Christian tradition and liturgy, and the life and teachings of St. Francis of Assisi, that God desires all creatures (yes, including our beloved pets!) in the afterlife.
Synopsis
A Universal Question, Thoughtfully Answered!
Graham Christian - Library Journal
This little volume by longtime writer and Franciscan friar Wintz has a strikingly serious yet warm message. For Wintz, a careful and spiritually adept student not only of the Bible but of the life and words of St. Francis, God's promise of a new creation at the end of time extends to the animal companions we have known and loved in this life: "the whole created world will somehow be saved." Strongly recommended.
