What happens when we die? And what does heaven really look like? In this powerful Memorial Day weekend message, we explore the astonishing story of Casey Cleveland—a worship leader who suffered a massive stroke and experienced a profound peace on the brink of death. His near-death testimony offers a glimpse of something greater… but Scripture tells us there’s even more.
Drawing from Revelation 21, this sermon challenges popular ideas about heaven and paints a more hopeful, grounded picture: not of escape, but of renewal. A holy city. A world made whole. God’s presence with us, forever.
If you’ve ever wondered about life after death—or struggled to find meaning in the here and now—this message will bring comfort, clarity, and hope.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
