90 Minutes in Heaven by Don Piper


This book has surpassed the Purpose Driven Life.

I started to read this book a few months back and if I was a fast reader like my mom, I would have been done in a day.... but there is more to this then just the thickness of the book. After reading about the accident and his journey to Heaven each page forces you take in each word and with great detail of Don Piper, he explaines how Heaven looks, smells, the sounds, the people, and you'll soon find yourself sobbing that your not there.
After the first chapeter, I would come back to work and discuss it with Lonnie and the emotional attachment you feel towards Don Piper and it would end up taking me weeks to get from one chapter to another. My thoughts were filled of songs, sounds, and possible people you could see in Heaven.
I have heard that describing Heaven to humans is similar to what explaining the internet to an ant would be like. Incomprehensible.
This book really should have only taken me a few days to read, but I soaked up each page, filled my days with thoughts of Heaven, and held on tight for three weeks.
