#1 New York Times bestseller with more than 11 million copies sold! When 4-year-old Colton Burpo emerges from life-saving surgery with remarkable stories of his visit to heaven, his family doesn’t know what to believe. Heaven is For Real details what Colton saw and his family’s journey towards accepting their young son had visited the afterlife.
“Do you remember the hospital, Colton?” Sonja said. “Yes, mommy, I remember,” he said. “That’s where the angels sang to me.”
Colton told his parents he left his body during an emergency surgery–and proved that claim by describing exactly what his parents were doing in another part of the hospital during his operation. He talked of visiting heaven and described events that happened before he was born and how he spoke with family members he’d never met. Colton also astonished his parents with descriptions and obscure details about heaven that matched the Bible exactly, even though he had not yet learned to read.
With disarming innocence and the plainspoken boldness of a child, Colton recounts his visit to heaven, describing:
- Meeting long-departed family members
- Jesus, the angels, how “really, really big” God is, and how much God loves us
- How Jesus called Todd, Colton’s father, to be a pastor
- The Battle of Armageddon
Retold by his father, but using Colton’s uniquely simple words, Heaven Is for Real offers a glimpse of the world that awaits us, where as Colton says, “Nobody is old and nobody wears glasses.”
Heaven Is for Real will forever change the way you think of eternity, offering the chance to see, and believe, like a child.
Praise for Heaven is for Real:
“A beautifully written glimpse into heaven that will encourage those who doubt and thrill those who believe.” —Ron Hall, coauthor of Same Kind of Different as Me

By the way, I study these died-and-come-back stories, and there is a book by Petti Wagner called "Murdered Heiress, Living Witness" that I also read constantly. In it, after bringing Petti back to life, he educates her about the three persons that comprise Him. AND he helps her make an impossible escape from a prison they built in a psych. ward of an abandoned hospital in Texas.
I also love the book by Richard Wurmbrand, "In God's Underground", in which he supernaturally forgives his prison torturers and goes back to try to win them. Now that's love! These stories have both really tough parts, and really great parts... kind of exactly like life. Hope this helps!

The THREE persons of GOD (ie a Trinity) are all three people who are cleared identified in this book ie No.1 GOD (the Father) - (Huge); No.2 "God the Son" (ie Jesus Christ); and No.3 God The Holy Spirit (with a blue face).
Chapter 17 "Two Sisters" is an absolute fantastic revelation of Joy to anyone famous in Showbiz such as DAME Olivia Newton John KBE OBE who has lost THREE still born babies after the successful birth of her one daughter Chloe.
Maximum age of everybody in Heaven is exactly Thirty-Three (ie 33) ie exactly the same age as Jesus Christ when he was cruxified on a standard issue wooden cross with exactly THREE iron nails - one nail through both his hands PLUS the third nail through both his feet on the direct orders of: The Romans + The Jewish leaders in charge of the Temple who were running the Temple (dedicated to GOD the father) as a sort of "bank raid job" were by then totally fed up / completely pissed off with this public nuisance "blaspheming" (a right "pain up the armpit") prophet Jesus Christ and thus they all wanted him: out of the way and finished forever / professionally ruined / dead and buried / humiliated / destroyed ...
The Jewish leaders were (of course) completely wrong as Jesus Christ triumphed to infinity so that's why Two of MY very best mates in British Showbiz are now alive in Heaven ie Tony Meehan(The Shadows) & Capital Radio DJ Kenny Everett PLUS Rik Mayall PLUS many other famous VIP Christians eg Rev'd Martin Luther King; David Bowie; George Michael; Aretha Franklin; Donna Summer; Mary Whitehouse.
This fascinating & intellectually absorbing book has now sold in excess of 11 million copies as of the Autumn 2021.!!!
