“I died on January 18, 1989.
Paramedics reached the scene of the accident within minutes.
They found no pulse and declared me dead. They covered me with a tarp so that
onlookers wouldn’t stare at me while they attended to the injuries of the
others. I was completely unaware of the paramedics or anyone else around me.
Immediately after I was in heaven, a Baptist preacher came
on the accident scene. Even though I was dead, he rushed to my lifeless body
and prayed for me. Despite the scoffing of the EMTs, he refused to stop
praying.
At least ninety minutes after the EMTs pronounced me dead,
God answered that man’s prayers.
I returned to Earth.
This is my story.”
New York Times Bestseller, 90 Minutes in Heaven is a heart wrenching, eye opening, life changing
story that takes you through the trauma and torture Don Piper had to face after
the years of agonizing recovery from his horrific car accident. Throughout the
book Piper shares each and every experience with you as the pages turn – the struggles, the embarrassment, and the
progress. Piper is able to answer questions for us that we have longed to know
the answer to; he can take what he knows and ensure us that as death comes upon
us there is nothing to be too worried about, or wonder about. He keeps our faith
alive, telling us his compelling story that he experienced as he was in Heaven.
After reading this book once, you will feel the need to read
it over and over again. His words are as real as God’s own, and with each read,
we are able to find comfort in the thoughts of one day having to move on to a
new part of our lives: death. 90 Minutes
in Heaven is a must read book for any type of religious believer, but even
more necessary for the many non-believers we have in the world. Piper is able
to bring anyone back into a solid ground with God, and this was the whole
purpose. Piper was brought back by God himself to help bring everyone together
and help others believe in something they have never known about, lost faith,
or just didn’t feel they had enough evidence to believe.
