Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

". . . rewarding, comforting, and reassuring." -Christian Review

At 5:00 on a July morning in 1959, twenty-seven-year-old Betty Malz was pronounced dead. A sheet was pulled over her head. Her mother and husband were notified, her father, prompted by the Lord, was already on his way to the hospital.

In My Glimpse of Eternity, Betty describes what she saw, felt, and heard on the other side of the dividing wall that we call "death," then how she returned to her body more than twenty minutes later-to the stunned amazement of her grieving family and the hospital personnel.

Her story is good news for all of us haunted by our own mortality. Yet it is even more than that. For this is the story of how God dealt with a proud, materialistic woman who had to die to learn how to live.

I truly enjoyed this book, the story of one women and her walk through life's journey...until! I liked her openness about herself, her life style and her beliefs before her encounter with the hereafter and I enjoyed the wonderful transformation in her afterwards. I smiled at the faith of her Dad and the goodness of God to prepare her own husband for his soon crossing. God is so good! All in all I felt this book was very tender, showing the love God has for his children and His great, great mercy!

5.0 out of 5 stars My Glimpse of Eternity, June 23, 2000

This review is from: My Glimpse of Eternity-Spire (Paperback)

This mind-capturing autobiography is an inspirational recollection of the authors experiences which led her to come to know the dealings of the Holy Spirit and the nearness of God. I found the book's lessons and the author's experiences to be very applicable to anyone seeking to come to know God's love and how he gently helps and deals with people to overcome their personal shortcomings and learn from their previous mistakes. This intimate exposition of the author's encounter with illness can give us hope and comfort that we may need in our daily lives, especially in times of trauma. Her visit to heaven takes the fear out of death and may help us to gain a grasp of life's priorities. I enjoyed the book very much; it left me with new insights into my own character and a refreshing look at God's attributes too.

3.0 out of 5 stars a nice story of her life, September 21, 2001

By

This review is from: My Glimpse of Eternity-Spire (Paperback)

I think Betty had alot of stress in her life, and I think God attends to those under that kind of stress in incredible ways. I would have thought her story was unbelievable if I had not had my own experiences with life and death and stress. I think it was nice of her to share her story with us, and I'm glad she has found a new life that is more settled (I HOPE!).It's certainly a miracle that she made it through that illness ! And it's wonderful that her first husband was able to ask and recieve many answers to his questions about "the other side" just before his own "death". Thank you Betty! God Bless~!
