About this audiobook
Is this all you're living for?
For years, pastor Paul Tripp understood we were "hardwired for forever." But he didn't understand that it was more than a valuable insight. It is a practical tool to help us face the disappointment of everyday life. Now he knows, and he can help you discover how to survive and thrive in the middle of your story, with the final chapter of heaven in view.
Instead of embracing the world's motto--"you only live once"--follow Tripp as he unpacks the biblical truth of the world as a broken place, longing for a second chance. And come alive as you discover the meaning and redemption all this brokenness can bring to your life today.
With practical insights on how eternity impacts your relationships, your job, your kids, and your deepest struggles, you'll be encouraged to relax into the eternal story God is writing for you. You really are hardwired for eternity, and this book reveals how you can begin to view all that happens in your life as preparation for Forever.

I'm 65 and have been retired just over two years. The first year was GREAT and busy. The second year flew by too, but with a longing for the satisfaction that I received doing a job I loved. I don’t want to go back to work, but have been struggling with something that I didn't understand. After listening to this book, I realized I was a work-a-holic. My husband wants lots of fun things to do. Neither of us are looking to Eternity. We've been married 46 years, and these things were and continue to be a struggle.
I'm about to listen again. It's only 14 chapters and we have to hear things several times to actually get it and emplement. I want to live my remaining years looking at things in perspective to Eternity!!!!!
