Un nino sale de una cirugia, que le salvo la vida, contando asombrosas historias acerca de su visita al cielo.

El cielo es real es la verdadera historia del hijo de cuatro anos del pastor de un pequeno pueblo de Nebraska que durante una operacion de emergencia visito el cielo.

El nino sobrevivio y afirma que veia, desde un plano superior, al doctor operando y a su padre orando en la sala de espera. La familia no sabia que creer, aunque pronto la evidencia se hizo mas clara.

Colton decia que conocio a su hermana que murio antes de nacer, de la que nadie le habia hablado; y a su abuelo, que murio treinta anos antes de que Colton naciera. Ademas, describia el caballo que solamente Jesucristo montaba, lo enorme que es Dios y su silla, y la manera en que el Espiritu Santo derrama poder desde el cielo para ayudarnos.

Relatado por su padre, el mensaje es que El cielo es real, que Cristo ama a los ninos y que estemos preparados, porque viene la ultima batalla.

Heaven is for Real

A young boy emerges from life-saving surgery with remarkable stories of his visit to heaven.
El cielo es real is the true story of the four-year old son of a small town Nebraska pastor who during emergency surgery slips from consciousness and enters heaven. He survives and begins talking about being able to look down and see the doctor operating and his dad praying in the waiting room. The family didn’t know what to believe but soon the evidence was clear.

Colton said he met his miscarried sister, whom no one had told him about, his great grandfather who died 30 years before Colton was born, then shared impossible-to-know details about each. He describes the horse that only Jesus could ride, about how “reaaally big” God and his chair are, and how the Holy Spirit “shoots down power” from heaven to help us.

Told by the father, but often in Colton’s own words, the disarmingly simple message is heaven is a real place, Jesus really loves children, and be ready, there is a coming last battle.

God is for Real, a new book from author of the best-seller Heaven is for Real, addresses soul-searching questions about God, likeWhat is God like? Why are things the way they are in spite of who God is?

If Todd’s first book, Heaven Is for Real, was about the then and there of heaven, God is for Real is about the here and now on earth:

Why are there are so many hypocritical church people? Why do Christians make such a big deal about the cross? Why doesn’t God seem to answer our biggest prayers?

People are tired of pat answers offered up in churchy language explaining away their questions; we want the down-and-dirty truth. What bothers us about life and faith is real and gritty. We need a plain-spoken voice to offer God’s answers to difficult struggles and painful doubts.

Todd charges into these subjects with a fireman’s courage, a small-town friend’s vulnerability, and a local pastor’s compassion. He helps articulate the questions people have, then gives them relevant biblical wisdom for taking their next steps in faith.

God is ready to meet you! Are you ready to meet Him?

How does a visit to heaven change your life? Todd and Sonja Burpo’s almost-four-year-old son Colton made an unforgettable trip to heaven and back during the darkest, most stressed-out days of their lives. Times were tough, money was scarce, and the bills, frustrations, and fears were piled high. How did Colton’s visit to heaven change things for them individually and as a family? And what does any of this mean for you and your life? Todd, and for the first time ever Sonja and Colton, from their perspectives, share what has happened since the release of their New York Times bestseller, Heaven Is for Real. Through their own experiences, and after hearing from thousands of the more than eight million readers who have shared how the story has affected them, they show you how believing heaven is for real will help you survive hardships here on earth, including the death of a loved one or the loss of a child through tragedy, miscarriage, or even abortion. Todd, Sonja, and Colton answer questions such as: (1) Is it really okay to struggle with and question God? Really?; (2) What hope is there for me if I’ve lost a child or a loved one to death? Will I ever see them again?; (3) What does heaven feel like?; (4) Can I know for sure that I’m going to heaven?; and (5)Does God really hear me when I pray? They also explain how their story can help you keep thoughts of eternity in mind in the midst of your own overly busy, stressed-out lives. Heaven truly is for real, and believing it changes everything!

When 4-year-old Colton Burpo emerges from life-saving surgery with remarkable stories of his visit to heaven, his family doesn’t know what to believe.

“Do you remember the hospital, Colton?” Sonja said. “Yes, mommy, I remember,” he said. “That’s where the angels sang to me.”

Colton told his parents he left his body during an emergency surgery–and proved that claim by describing exactly what his parents were doing in another part of the hospital during his operation. He talked of visiting heaven and described events that happened before he was born and how he spoke with family members he’d never met. Colton also astonished his parents with descriptions and obscure details about heaven that matched the Bible exactly, even though he had not yet learned to read.

With disarming innocence and the plainspoken boldness of a child, Colton recounts his visit to heaven, describing:

• Meeting long-departed family members
• Jesus, the angels, how ‚Äúreally, really big‚Äù God is, and how much God loves us
• How Jesus called Todd, Colton‚Äôs father, to be a pastor
• The Battle of Armageddon

Retold by his father, but using Colton’s uniquely simple words, Heaven Is for Real offers a glimpse of the world that awaits us, where as Colton says, “Nobody is old and nobody wears glasses.”
