Ratings and reviews

This is another interesting account of what someone experienced when he left his earthly body. It is another reminder and teacher of what is ultimately important in this life and beyond. We are reminded as well that our creator can change our best laid plans in an instant.

This is an exceptional account of the near-death experience, or more accurately after-death death experience, of a sensitive but ordinary young soldier during World War II. His descriptions of love and purpose learned in the presence of Christ and hard-won wisdom in his life that followed had me highlighting and notating sections that I never want to forget! Definitely a worthy and captivating benefit to life's journey.

This book added it's witness to many truths taught to me in the scriptures. The different spheres of post-mortal life are reminders to change our actions here, and always be focused on Him, and each other.
