Pat: THE BIBLE SAY, NO EYE

AND NO

EAR HAS HEARD WHAT GOD HAS

PREPARED

FOR US.

HEAVEN IS A WONDERFUL PLACE

AND TUCKER

WRITES, THE JOY OF GETTING

THERE IS AS

WELL.

IN TELEVISION SHOWS LIKE

THE BIBLE

SERIES MAKES A STRONG CASE

ABOUT

PEOPLE WANTING TO GO TO

HEAVEN.

IN HIS BOOK, "HEAVEN BOUND"

HE TALKS

ABOUT THE GOAL AND HOW TO

MAKE THE WAY

SPECTACULAR.

Pat: HE WAS FROM THE BOARD

OF REGENT

UNIVERSITY WHICH IS A

VIGOROUS CAMPUS

OF 6200 PEOPLE AND HE'S

WRITTEN A BOOK

CALLED "HEAVEN BOUND",

TUCKER, IT'S

GREAT TO SEE YOU.

THANK YOU.

GLAD TO BE HERE.

YOU LOOK MARVELOUS.

I'M AN OLD MAN.

I'M GETTING THERE.

BOTH OF US.

THIS BOOK WAS WRITTEN TO

YOUR

GRANDCHILDREN.

HOW MANY GRANDCHILDREN DO YOU

HAVE?

17.

I HAVE 14, I THOUGHT I WAS

WAY

AHEAD.

17 WONDERFUL KIDS.

YOU FELT YOU NEEDED TO

INSTRUCTION

THEM IN THE ULTIMATE GOAL.

I WAS THINKING ABOUT MY

WONDERFUL

GRANDFATHER AND HOW MUCH I

KNEW THEM

AND I WISH THEY HAD WRITTEN

ABOUT

LIFE AND THE LORD AND VALUES.

I THOUGHT THAT MIGHT APPEAL

TO MY

GRANDCHILDREN IF I HAD

ANYTHING TO SAY

AND I DID.

I STARTED TO DO MY MEMOIRS

FOR THEM

AND THEN IT BRANCHED INTO

BIBLICAL

TOPICS AND FB ONE IS HOW WE

HAVE COME

TO KNOW HIM AND BLOOD OF LAND

AND MY

FRIENDS THOUGHT I OUGHT TO

PUBLISH IT.

THAT'S THE RESULT.

BUT THE WHOLE IDEA WAS I

REALLY HAVE

KIND OF A PET PEEVE.

YOU KNOW, SOME ADVANTAGE LIST

WHEN

THEY LEAD PEOPLE TO JESUS

THEY TALK

ABOUT THE GLORY OF HEAVEN AND

NOTHING

LIKE HEAVEN.

IT'S THE EPITOME, THE

GREATEST PLACE

IN THE WORLD, BUT RARELY DO

THEY TALK

ABOUT THE INCREDIBLE WALK,

THE JOURNEY.

WHAT ABOUT THE 15-YEAR-OLD

THAT

ACCEPTS JESUS AND LIVES TO BE

85.

WHAT HAPPENS IN THOSE 70

YEARS.

LIKE MY GRANDMOTHER WHOM YOU

MET,

ALICE TUCKER, SHE SAID I KNOW

MY

HEAVEN IS HOME.

THERE WERE KEYS YOU TALK

ABOUT IN

THIS BOOK IN

YES, FOUR KEYS TO BECOMING

A

BELIEVER, BELIEVE IN THE LORD

JESUS

CHRIST, RECEIVE, REPENT AND

FORGIVE.

THOSE ARE THE FOUR KEYS.

IF WE LOOK AT THOSE, IT'S

EASY TO

REMEMBER BECAUSE WE DO HAVE

TO BELIEVE

ON HIM IN THE FULLEST SENSE

OF THE

WORD "BELIEVE" AND WE HAVE TO

INVITE

HIM INTO OUR LIVES.

WHEN WE DO, HE COMES.

AND AS I SAID IN THE TITLE

THAT YOU

JUST MENTIONED AN INCREDIBLE

JOURNEY.

HAVE YOUR GRANDCHILDREN

READ THIS

YET?

YES, A NUMBER OF THEM.

THEY RANGE IN AGE FROM 3-27.

SEVERAL OF THE YOUNGER ONES

HAVE.

I HOPE THEY ALL WILL.

BUT I HAVE WRITTEN ON VARIOUS

BIBLICAL

TOPICS FOR THEM WHICH I WILL

PUT IN A

VOLUME FOR THEM.

THAT IS REALLY MY LEGACY FOR

MY

GRANDCHILDREN.

THEY ARE ALL FOR THE LORD,

JUST

EVERY PAGE.

I APPRECIATE THE EXPOSURE

OF THE

BOOK ON THE "700 CLUB"

BECAUSE I THINK

IT'S A BOOK THAT YOU CAN GIVE

TO A

PERSON.

IF YOU READ ON THE BACK, I

SAY HER,

HEAVEN BOUND, GETTING THERE

IS THE

ULTIMATE.

BUT THE PROCESS, THE JOURNEY

IS IS

SPECTACULAR.

HOW DOES IT HAPPEN?

IT'S NOT A SECRET.

AND THEN HEAVEN BOUND FOR

THOSE WHO

WANTED TO KNOW, FOR THOSE WHO

DON'T

WANT TO KNOW AND FOR THOSE

WHO ALREADY

KNOW.

THAT'S HOW I HOPE THE BOOK

WILL BE

USED.

YOUR MOTHER AND FATHER

WERE SUCH

WONDERFUL FRIENDS AND YOUR

GRAND WHO

LIVED DOWN IN RALEIGH, A LADY

NAMED

MINNIE WATERS.

GREAT HERITAGE, TUCKER, YOU

ARE

PASSING IT ON.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS

A GREAT

BOOK TO GIVE AT CHRISTMAS.

HOW DO THEY GET IT?

PROBABLY THE EASIEST WAY

IS TO GET

IT THROUGH AMAZON

TUCKER HAS BEEN A FRIEND

FOR MANY

MANY YEARS.

WE HAVE BEEN ON THE BOARD

WITH CBN AND

THE CHAMBER OF THE BOARD AT

REGENT

UNIVERSITY.
