Publisher's summary

On January 18th 1989, Don Piper died in a car accident. Ninety minutes later, after a preacher prayed over him, Piper came back to life with an extraordinary story. He'd been to heaven. So began the phenomenon of 90 Minutes in Heaven.

Now, for the millions who look to him for inspiration, Piper offers the hope that, if he could survive his ordeal after the accident, others can survive whatever life circumstances they're going through - and grow in God's love through the experience. For Piper, heaven is a certainty and so is God's grace. Relying on that assurance, believers can transform pain into purpose and troubles into blessings, finding joy in life even when life turns out not to be what they expected.

Critic reviews

"Piper's story is astounding and his life lessons are real: focus on the eternal, find the humor, accept help, give thanks and just hold on." ( Publishers Weekly)

Very Interesting

I found this book to be very interesting. Even though I wanted to hear about all his recovery(which I read in 90 Minutes in Heaven) and his experiences with all the other people, I really wanted to hear more about his 90 minutes in Heaven. I just wish he had described it in more detail. Other than that, I think it is a great book for all to read or listen to.

Heaven is Real

This book is a book that you could give to someone who is dying or loves someone who is dying. I think it could give deep peace to one who is ill and is terminal and is a Christian. This author has, due to a car accident, clinically died and spent 90 Minutes in heaven before returning to life here on earth. I have approched reading this backward, I really want to read the 1st book about his time in heaven.

Senior believer

This book is better on Audible so listen to it if at all possible, it will be 10 times better. This book is as good if not better than 90 Minutes. This book can lead you to Heaven! He tells you how to get there and what to do to get there! This man has been to the gates of Heaven——what more do you need to believe?

an awakeniong

I really enjoyed this book. He gave credit to all the people in his life and told how they had helped him "recover" from his "death". He distinguished his experience from the NDE, "near death experience". The book was well written in that it had a good flow from beginning to end. It didn't leave us dangling with questions. He tried to answer all the questions and told us how his life had changed.

Well done, Don and Cec!

If you're ready to hear the truth about why you are here and where you are going, you've come to the second best book that will explain these things to you.

Heaven is Real good!

Great title to listen to. Good story points that are applicable to daily use.

Gives a whole new perspective on life, and what to be thankful for and what doesn’t matter. A lot of take-aways from the author’s life changing experience.
