Heaven is For Real ~ Colton Burpo's "A Glimpse of Heaven"

Is there life after death? Just ask 4-year-old Colton, who emerged from life-threatening surgery with astounding details about heaven! Colton's detailed account includes floating away, seeing God's throne, and meeting relatives---including his sister who died in a miscarriage (and whom his parents had never mentioned). From the book, "Heaven is for Real" by Todd Burpo. Video courtesy of CBN

During crucifixion didn't they put the nails through the wrists and ankles... not the hands and feet? I believe in God, but this seems a little off... Maybe I'm wrong though.

@orangegold1 Do you remember the story of doubting Thomas?

John 20:25 So the other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord!" But he said to them, "Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it." When Jesus appeared He said to Thomas, "Reach here with your finger, and see My hands; and reach here your hand and put it into My side; and do not be unbelieving, but believing." Hope this helps.

I'm not really the hugging type...

@G4m3r4 why does it matter how he looked? all I know is that Jesus came to save, and he did

I don't think any of this was all about the money...they wanted to share something for others to gain faith...loved the book really opened my eyes... There will always be at least one person who has to find or say something negative...I recommend reading this book

@1HAMLINFAN I just today finished reading the book. I started it this morning and finished in a few hours. Just think of all the people that saw Jesus when He walk the on the earth. All the They saw Him they ate with Him He healed them they wrote about Him. He was the Word and the Word became flesh and dwelt amoung us. He said to his disciples, when you see me you see the Father. For I am in Him and he is in Me and I am in you,

I am not saying this isn't true at all..but I thought no one could see GOD and live or come back from heaven..I would think the little boy would have had to stay there in heaven since JESUS is GOD(GOD THE SON)..Idk ...maybe a pastor reading this can clarify this for me..

I experienced something like this in a dream..I did not see JESUS, however I did see the bright light as bright as the sun and a cloud in the shape of a hand motioning me to come forward as I drifted off into the sky.
