If not another world, we were at the very least made for more than this. I think this explains in part our fascination with the possibility of life on other planets, or our infatuation with Grand Stories such as Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings. We are all looking for something more.

Good thoughts, Tim. And we can see in those grand stories the reflections and echoes of the grandest story of them all—God’s great story that He’s been writing over the centuries!
