I love this book! No matter what religion you are, it lets you know that Jesus and Heavenly Father are IN DEED real and care for our well being. It really is a faith booster! Some stuff that he talks about seems kinda weird but other than that...most is really uplifting and enjoyable!
If you want to know where you will be when your die this book will tell you of this man who experience hell and what he saw. It is in the bible and I like it because I am using it as a tool to follow what I should do before I die and learning it and reading the Bible. I think everyone should read it and check it out and I tell you it talks about the Love of God and that the Love of God is so overwhelming that shakes that human body and soul, for HE IS THE CREATOR. We will be judge according to our deeds and it is in this book what this man done in his life and how sad it made the Lord and His angels that took him up for judgement. Believe it or not its scriptural. I recommend this book, this man was athiest.
If you have just lost a loved one, and not sure where you are, or how to pick up the pieces this book is for you...I love my wife...and it helped me feel about 20% better about losing my wife...although you might never feel 100% better because no one can...it did give me some since of peace
With the help of Anne Rice (whom after reading Howard Storm's initial report became convinced enough to give up vampire writing) Howard Storm has bravely documented an experience he will never forget and would have never believed himself before it happened. That in itself is truly an interesting read and worth purchasing the book for. I also was given cassette tapes of his visit to Seattle of his experience when he had a speaking engagement and so was eager to purchase the book when it was released. Although near death experiences are often hard to swallow for most of us who have not had such experience, I believe the majority of them are valid as I had a son who was 'so called' dead for over 9 minutes when he was 6 months old and choked on food and was not under any medication nor in a hospital setting until after he was revived and told me about several different and unusual things that he somehow remembered. He relayed what he remembered to me when he was around 3 1/2 years old and children that age usually do not lie so we took him when he was much older to a near death experience group meeting and found many similarities so you might say that I have a serious interest in the field but must admit that I don't quite understand it all myself. I highly recommend reading this book as it is very much a revelation of what truly took place to Howard Storm. If it convinced Anne Rice then what better reason then to give it a try.
This is a fascinating account of an one individual's unique near death experience. After visiting both hell and heaven, this athiest returned to life to become a minister. Insightful and inspiring.
