So has his daughter who has been growing up on her own without a father since his disappearance. To their surprise, they are visited one day by two Marines who are there to inform them that Haven is in fact still alive. Haven's return shocks the nation and his life is celebrated while he's simply trying to play catch up in a world that went on without him. It's not long before he stumbles onto the truth, a scandalous truth that finds him mixed up in the middle of unbelievable corruption. Not only was his plane meant to go down, but he was meant to die. And that just scratches the surface of how evil this scandal gets. The movie a producer was planning to make about his story suddenly gets canceled without any explanation. As Haven continues to investigate, he is contacted anonymously by someone who claims to be very powerful.

Soon, friendly hackers are coming to his assistance while bad hackers are hired to take him out. But Haven won't back down and the fight is taken to the real world where he finds himself pitted against an enemy he once thought was on his side, an invisible enemy that reaches quite high and has resources far beyond Haven's imagination. When his daughter comes up missing, he recruits the assistance of friendly hackers who help him chase a human trafficking crew across the country.

But they have no idea how far he is willing to go to save the only person he has left in his life.

Eschatology and ethics are joined at the hip, says Michael Allen, and both need theocentric reorientation. In Grounded in Heaven Allen retrieves the traditional concept of the beatific vision and seeks to bring Christ back into the heart of our theology and our lives on earth.Responding to the earthly-mindedness of much recent theology, Allen places his focus on God and the heavenly future while also appreciating ways in which the Reformed tradition provides a unique angle on broadly catholic concerns. Reaching back to classical ethics as well as its reformation by Calvin and other Reformed theologians, Grounded in Heaven offers a distinctly Protestant account of the ascetical calling to be heavenly-minded and to deny one's self.

Sanctification, the latest volume in the New Studies in Dogmatics series, offers a Christ-centered account of sanctification by viewing the doctrine within its wider canonical and creedal context, bringing its distinctly Christian definition and thoroughly gracious character into greater relief.
