90 Minutes In Heaven- A True Story of Death - Life Description:

90 Minutes In Heaven: A True Story of Death & Life review:
4 stars (Good Book but Name is Misleading) - A very good and interesting book, however, the 90 minutes in heaven only take up a couple of pages. The rest of the book deals with all the aspects of recovering from a major accident. I think everyone can learn something from reading this book. Hopefully we will not have to go through similar recovery periods to learn the lessons that are passed on in this book. I would definitely recommend this book!
5 stars (Very Convincing....) - From my own 36+ years of experience walking with God on & off the mission field, the chapters detailing the author's experience before the "pearlescent" main gate of New Jerusalem really witnessed to me. His experience only takes up two chapters in the book, but for me they were almost life-changing - and they did forever alter my perceptions of my temporary stay here on this earth. Brother Piper writes, "I get frustrated describing what heaven was like, because I can't put into words what it looked like, sounded like, and felt like." Nevertheless, he does a good enough job in my humble estimation. Piper states further, "The only way I've made sense out of that part of the experience is to think that if I had actually seen God, I would never have wanted to return (to earth)." Every sentence he writes seems worthy of pondering & meditating over - it is almost as if one is experiencing what he experienced as it is read. The difference between these two chapters & the rest of the book is dramatic Piper must deal with the reality of a broken body as the result of his horrendous accident & all the patient suffering he has endured as he witnesses to the glories of "90 minutes in Heaven."



It would be worthwhile to buy the book to read those two chapters alone, in my opinion. But the rest of the book is worthwhile for those many who have been & will continue to be encouraged by it in their own walk of faith.


5 stars (An Interesting Story...............) - All these reviews pretty much tell you the basic story. I'm just going to say that I enjoyed the book. It WAS alot about the PAIN that he (Don Piper) went through.......in fact most of the book was about that, but it was still interesting, and his connection to the Other Side was believable. That connection keeps you going throughtout the book. I enjoyed it.
