In this booklet, Pete Burak, Vice President of Renewal Ministries, examines what the Bible teaches us is necessary to get to heaven: conversion, repentance, and faith.

Relying heavily on Jesus’ words in Scripture, Burak clearly explains why the Church shouldn’t strive to find common ground with the world but rather to help the world—and each of us individually—conform to the Gospel.
