Publisher's summary

Millions of people around the world have reported a near-death experience. Do they prove the existence of a loving God?

Never in history, until now, have we been able to hear from so many people around the world who have been brought back from clinical death. Modern medical resuscitation and digital communication have revealed a goldmine of intriguing near-death experiences (NDEs) that show us the character of God. John Burke has spent the last three decades studying the commonalities of more than 1000 NDEs. His investigative journey started as a skeptical agnostic, when his own father was dying from cancer. When he first read these eyewitness accounts, he couldn’t help asking himself: “Could this be real evidence—even possible proof of God’s existence?”

  • In this book, you will discover:
  • Analysis of 1000+ near-death experiences and how they reveal the wondrous attributes of God and correlate with the Bible
  • Follow up research to Burke’s exploration of the afterlife, Imagine Heaven, a New York Times best-seller of over 1 million copies
  • True stories from nearly 70 people from every continent who have died, been resuscitated, and now testify to having been more alive than ever in the presence of a loving God they never wanted to leave
  • People of all ethnicities and backgrounds―including doctors, engineers, and CEO―experience the same God.

John Burke unveils the love story and characteristics of this God of all nations, revealed throughout history and in Scripture, now illustrated by these thrilling encounters. You will realize God’s love, power, compassion, friendship, and guidance are closer than you could ever imagine. And for such a time as this, people need to know a loving God is within their reach.

Thank you!

I am so grateful for this book! John Burke does an amazing job presenting his research with love and knowledge!
I felt so close to Heaven while listening to the audiobook - but even more so - the overwhelming love of the Father for each one of us! I will be listening to it again and again! Thank you!

God does not care about your ethnicity or religion. He knows what is in your heart. He knows you by your name.

This book has become my favorite book. The audio version was narrated by the author. So good ! Give it a try. You will not be disappointed

Changed My Life, View of Life, and View of God

This book is for you if you are human, and even if you’re an animal, hah! This changed my life in a few different ways.

I realized that God’s grace is great—so much greater than I ever imagined! It seems that God gives people a chance to see His love in a way that is unmistakable, and people still have a choice whether or not to make Jesus their Savior when they leave their bodies.

I see that Heaven is so much more awesome than I imagined, more exciting and fun and beautiful and wonder-filled. I was not afraid of death before, but now I have a different perspective. I wouldn’t say I welcome death, but I look forward to the blessings beyond this life much more, and I feel less afraid to die. I know that if Jesus wants me back in my body, He will heal me, and I will return, so I don’t have to fear dying before my time. My time is whenever He wants it to be!

I believe the main narration is done by Burke himself. He sounds a lot like him, anyway, and well done! One of the best narrations and audio quality in an audiobook that I have experienced.

I cannot stress enough how much I recommend this book, whether you are a Christ-follower or not!

If you’re a skeptic but open to evidence and reasonably honest about what constitutes evidence, this book will give you the kind that is irrefutable. You will see that you don’t stop existing when your body gives out.

If you are a believer, John Burke turns your eyes up towards Heaven, and you will be blessed.

I want you to experience the numerous testimonies in this book, which represent Burke’s 30 years studying of over 1000 NDE’s. I promise you will be blessed, and very likely changed, like I was.

—Matt
