Fantastic stories of the afterlife!

Amazing stories of people who died, their consciousness remaining alert, as they experienced the love and glories of heaven — and sometimes hell. They came back to tell us of the absolute reality of the afterlife, and how God wants us with him. How the only way to have the heavenly afterlife is by accepting Jesus’s sacrifice for us which changes us forever into beings worthy of living with God.

Most Uplifting and Inspirational!

One of my favorite Christian topics has to do with NDE’s and how they’re all different for everyone who’s ever experienced one, as someone said in his book, “ they seem to be custom made experiences depending on the person, their needs and prior life experiences.

Excellent book

I am always a little skeptical of NDE books so I only read from authors that I trust. Randy Kay and Shaun Tabatha are my most trusted writers on this subject.
