90 Minutes in Heaven

Today I'm linking up with Heather with Blonde... Undercover Blonde for Book Club Friday.


Based on a True Story- Don Piper is in a car accident just outside of Huntsville, Texas, and is pronounced dead at the scene. This is a fascinating story of a man's visit to Heaven, and his life after returning to earth. Don Piper is an ordained minister in a town outside of Houston, TX, whose recovery continues to be grueling physically. The life and death experience changed his life forever.

The first part of this book was intense. Leaving me waiting to hear more as he describes, as best as possible, what he saw as he spent 90 human minutes in heaven, as we as telling the gruesome story of his rough-life long journey of recovery. The 2nd half of the book he talked about how is experiences helped others. Definitely a book worth reading.

I found several quotes from the book that were inspirational as well.
"Sometimes things we take for granted every day can be taken from us permanently and suddenly, and we're changed forever."
We're willing to save someone in a visible crisis, but a lot of folks are in a spiritual crisis and we don't say a word about how they can get out of it."
"There are no accidents or surprises with God."
