About book

Releases My Book.

After forty-three years of ministry, including preaching, teaching, and counseling, I have engaged with many on the topics of heaven, hell, and the afterlife. Some believed in heaven but not hell, some believed in annihilation after death, and some believed that as soon as they died, they would be walking in heaven on streets of gold. However, hardly anyone talked about how things were initially created and how they, and their occupants, would change over time. I am writing this book with the purpose and hope of providing light and biblical proof of how things began and how they have indeed changed over time. All in the master plan of the Almighty God. Let’s get started.

Dr. Burford's exploration of eternity is both sobering and inspiring. He doesn't shy away from hard truths, and his use of Scripture is solid and respectful. This book helped me rethink how I view life’s purpose and the importance of preparing

D. Nguyen Designation

I appreciated how thoroughly Dr. Burford referenced the Bible throughout. It's not just opinion—it’s rooted in Scripture. A must-read for believers who want clarity
on life after death.

Karen D Designation

Burford does an excellent job of making a complex topic accessible. Eternity is something we all face, and this book serves as a spiritual compass for navigating it. Some chapters felt repetitive, but the core message was strong.

Bethany L. Designation

This book truly touched my heart. I lost a loved one recently, and Dr. Burford’s insights gave me comfort and hope. It reminded me that death is not the end but a transition for those who trust in Christ.
