READ: 90 Minutes in Heaven by Don Piper

I have finished this book, the first of my 25 books this year.

Here’s my brief review:

As he is driving home from a minister’s conference, Baptist minister Don Piper is hit by a semi-truck that crosses into his lane. He is pronounced dead at the scene. For the next 90 minutes, Piper experiences heaven where he is greeted by those who had influenced him spiritually. He hears beautiful music and feels true peace. Back on earth, a passing minister who had also been at the conference is led to pray for Don even though he was told that the man was already dead. Piper miraculously comes back to life and the bliss of heaven is replaced by a long and painful recovery. For years Piper kept his heavenly experience to himself. Finally, however, friends and family convinced him to share his remarkable story. Don goes on to become an inspiration for his faith and for his recovery.
