Imagine Heaven: Near-Death Experiences, God's Promises, and the Exhilarating Future That Awaits You

Product Information

But if you actually saw heaven and lived to tell about it, those things are not what would capture your heart and imagination. The only reason I’m giving it a 4 is because I was hoping it would go into more detail on certain subjects such as relationships in heaven, pet’s in heaven, etc. I've already stated many non-religious people - many of whom were previously religious - already know of religious imagery in some way, shape, or form.

It was a sheer joy to read, it is solidly biblical, and it contains several exciting and convincing NDE accounts. Religious people are more afraid of death than non-religious people are, thus causing them to see all of this religious imagery when they have NDEs.The author goes with the assumption that because these people saw something, therefore it must be believed. And the fact that I had gotten this book before my mom got cancer and was able to share with her some of the stories I'd read was awesome. The focus of this book is definitely heaven, how studies of NDE (Near Death Experiences) support the scriptures.

The final half of the book moved at a fast pace, and I learned a lot about Heaven as Burke used NDEs to illustrate major points in his book. A part of her wasn't sure as she had a strong feeling that she was already home in that beautiful place. In Imagine Heaven, John Burke shares stories from many people who have had near-death experiences and ties together the details and commonalities in each of the stories.

Instead of scrolling through your social media news feed, this is a much better way to spend your spare time in my opinion. My husband was taking a half day off from work for a dental appointment on the 4th of July weekend which was cancelled due to a suspicion of a possible abscess and needed antibiotics before getting the tooth worked on.

I am going to read it at least once more immediately and I will definitely read it repeatedly in the future. The course is so flexible, that it can be used in person or online, in 6 weeks or any number of weeks you choose. Another interesting point is that there is a life review -- a sort of highlight reel (or lowlight reel -- this ain't Facebook) of what you've done. At the beginning he absolutely gives total credibility to near death experiences and the fact that people have been to heaven and experienced life after death.

These NDEs not only provide evidence of heaven's existence but also offer detailed descriptions of what it looks like. John Burke's Imagine Heaven masterfully combines the surprisingly large amount of 'data' from interviews with people who have had near-death experiences (NDEs) with 'data' from the Scriptures to create a remarkably believable picture of what life after death will be like. But the one thing tying all of them together is that they have a strong emotional affect on the person who experienced it, and it usually led to them changing their life in some way.
