“We don’t go to Fort Chicago,” said Ta-Kumsaw. “We go to the holy place.”
“A church?” asked Alvin.

“Well what does make a place holy?” asked Alvin.

Every bit of land is a holy land, and every drop of water is a holy water, and every single child is a son or a daughter of the one earth mama, and the one earth papa.
Michael Franti

Mike Huckabee
The holy Nakhchivan land is a dear place for me. I bend my head in front of this land.

Heaven is where God dwells. It is a specific place; …a place of unparalleled tranquility and beauty. It includes the new heaven and new earth.
