He and his college buddies were traveling through the Ozark mountains on their way to the Buffalo National River. They were going to canoe the entire river during their spring break. So, they pulled up to a general store in a small town at the end of the river where they were going to leave one car. Walking in to that store, he asked the men that were sitting there "How do I get to the start of the river?"
Well, that started an argument. One man said one thing, another contradicted him and said another. A third man said they both were wrong and proceeded to give yet another set of directions. Who was right? Confused, he asked again "What’s the best way to get there?" but that started a whole ‘nother argument among the men in that general store.
How do I get there? Most of us have asked that question at some point in our lives, haven’t we? And it’s a question that many people today ask when they come face to face with the fact of their mortality. We’re all going to die, eventually. And if there is a heaven (and God assures us there is),"HOW DO I GET THERE?" Let’s see if God answers that question for us today.
