Book Description
What if you didn't have to die to see heaven? What if heaven already has a place for you, now, while you're still living on the earth?In October 2011, while still very much alive, Steve was taken up to heaven and found himself in the presence of Almighty God! This was just the beginning. For the next five months he would be taken up repeatedly, where he would have divine encounters with God. There, Steve experienced true friendship with His Creator, discovering that regardless of our best successes or worst failures, God has indeed “saved our seat” in His Presence!Saved Your Seat, written by Steve Dittmar, pastor of Jubilee Church in Camarillo, CA, chronicles Steve's thirty-five year journey to "bring God's Kingdom to earth," only to discover that God would rather we dwell "where He is; in the completed work of His Son." What God wants of us...is Friendship.In the candid re-telling of his journey, we experience the familiar expectation, excitement, pain, loss, resurrection and joy of a man "following hard after God." Steve addresses some tough questions: "Why doesn't my life line-up with what I believe about God?" "What happened to those promises over my life?" "Why does trying harder, believing more, praying and fasting, seem to take me further away from those promises at times?" "Why should I believe You God, when You don't answer my prayers the way I think You should?" "Why am I still encountering so much warfare, when the Cross is a finished work?"
