Have Heart: Bridging the Gap Between Heaven and Earth

Are you grieving after the passing of a loved one?
Have you discovered the source of healing for your broken heart?
Do you wonder what your loved one is doing in Heaven?
Are you living on earth with Heaven in mind?


Since their son Josiah went to Heaven on his nineteenth birthday, Steve and Sarah Berger have developed a new, contagious passion and excitement for Heaven, its inhabitants, and its activity. As a pastor and pastor's wife, they had counseled countless families in their time of deepest need, but on August 14, 2009, God launched their own family on a journey that has forever changed their lives. As they hit their knees and cried out to God and searched their Bibles for answers, God began to reveal fresh truth and healing from familiar passages in His Word. Have Heart presents the fruit of their personal studies on Heaven, grieving, brokenheartedness, honoring a loved one's legacy, and living each day with Heaven in mind.

If you are grieving the passing of a loved one, or if you're just curious about what Heaven is like, Have Heart will encourage you to firmly place your trust in Jesus and your hope in Heaven.

About the Author

For more than twenty years, Steve Berger's ministry has been marked by realness and relevance. He is the founding Pastor of Grace Chapel, a community of over 4,000. Steve is known for his straight-talk in the pulpit and practical, Biblically-based preaching. He is a conference speaker and part of the teaching faculty for the National Worship Leader Conferences. Steve is a regular contributor to several publications. He has also written the small group studies, 40 Days with the Word of Promise and the Seven Love Letters of Jesus.

Along with his wife, Sarah, who leads Grace Chapel's Women's Ministry, they recently published Have Heart: Bridging the Gulf between Heaven and Earth. This project, the most personal to date, deals with the events surrounding their 19 year old son's entrance into Heaven. Whether preaching or writing, in great joy or pain, Steve longs to be a proclaimer of the grace and hope that Jesus came to offer. Since June of 1987, he has been married to Sarah, the love of his life, and together, they have four beautiful children.

What People are Saying About This

Chuck Missler

Like Steve and Sarah, Nancy and I have a son in Heaven. It wasn't until we looked at Heaven as the country that our son now inhabits that it yielded its truths to us in an undeniable way. This book illuminates the glorious truths about our future home with a life-changing force and a biblical depth that makes it a 'must read' for all who have made travel plans for Heaven. (Dr. Chuck Missler, Founder, Koinonia Institute)

James Robison

Steve and Sarah Berger show us how we can find light and life beyond death's shadow by allowing God to carry us behind the 'Why?' to the 'What are you going to do through this circumstance?' No one ever wants to face the heartache this family has experienced, but the Bergers help us see up-close and personal the power of love and the beauty of life in God's eternal presence. (James Robison, Founder and President, LIFE Outreach International)

Bill Frist

The story of the life of Josiah Berger should be shared far and wide. From this most tragic accident, there came life. Josiah's decision to donate his organs allowed 77 people to live longer, healthier, better lives. He is a hero to these 77 people, and he is a hero to society. As a heart transplant surgeon, I can attest that there is no better story to capture what was Josiah's favorite phrase, 'Have Heart.' (Senator Bill Frist, M.D., Former U.S. Senate Majority Leader)

Greg Laurie

Steve and Sarah Berger have faced the worst tragedy imaginable: the tragic death of their son, Josiah. There are no words to describe the pain and sense of loss a parent feels when they have lost a child. To say that your world changes forever is an understatement of epic proportions. I know, because our son also died. In fact, it was through our mutual loss that my wife and I became friends with the Bergers. In their new book, Have Heart, Steve and Sarah write candidly of what they have experienced. And yet, despite the very real pain they live with each and every day, this book bursts with hope.

While no one ever gets over the death of a child, the Bergers are going through this experience with more than their faith intact. As you will read, their faith is deeper, their insights are more penetrating, and their hope is bright with the expectation of seeing their beloved son again. I trust this book will be a blessing to you. (Greg Laurie, Author and Founding Pastor/Evangelist, Harvest Christian Fellowship)

William Paul Young

Framed within the most intimate of losses, this book allows its readers to peek into life-and-death perspectives of those who follow Jesus. (William Paul Young, Author of The New York Times Best Seller, The Shack)
