Let Me Answer That - Part 2C

In this book, Don Piper recounts his experience of dying in a car accident on January 18, 1989, and spending what he believed to be 90 minutes in heaven. During this time, he describes experiencing immense happiness, meeting deceased loved ones, and participating in a heavenly choir. However, his return to earth was marked by a long and painful recovery from severe injuries. The book details not only his heavenly experience but also his grueling recovery process and how it affected his faith and life. Despite the controversy surrounding the validity of his heavenly experience, the book has been a bestseller and has inspired many readers.

The book describes Alex Malarkey's alleged experiences after a car accident in 2004, including an out-of-body experience, meeting Jesus, and encounters with angels and the devil. However, it was later revealed that Alex admitted to fabricating the story. The book was promoted as a supernatural encounter but was eventually pulled from publication due to the admission of its falsity. The Malarkey family, particularly Alex and his mother Beth, have publicly disavowed the book and its contents.

The book tells the story of Colton Burpo, who after surviving an emergency appendectomy, began sharing detailed and biblically accurate descriptions of his experiences in heaven. He described meeting long-departed family members, seeing Jesus and the angels, and experiencing the love of God. The story, retold by his father Todd Burpo, offers a childlike perspective on eternity and the nature of heaven, which has inspired many with its simplicity and faithfulness to biblical accounts.
