In Surprised by Hope, Tom Wright transformed how millions understood life after death – showing that authentic Christian hope isn’t about “going to heaven,” but about “heaven coming to earth” in the new creation. A profound follow-up to Surprised by Hope, God’s Homecoming is essential reading for anyone interested in Christian theology, biblical studies, the afterlife, and the hope of resurrection, as well as fans of Tom Wright (NT Wright). Now, in God’s Homecoming, world renowned theologian Tom Wright takes this vision a step further.

Through a powerful exploration of Paul’s letters and the Hebrew prophets, he reveals that biblical hope is not limited to individual salvation, but the renewal and reconciliation of all creation. At the heart of this hope is the promise that the Creator God will return to dwell among his people, filling the whole world with his glorious, healing presence.
