Heaven Is For Real is one little boy’s story of an astounding trip, a trip that took him to Heaven and back. Carlton Burpo’s family holiday in 2003 took a harrowing turn that literally brought his family to their knees. Pastor Todd Burpo and his wife Sonia prayed that God would help their little boy as the surgeon’s battled to save Carlton’s life. But when they left the hospital 17 days later they had no idea of the amazing things that had taken place or the story their son was going to tell them just a few months later. 'Heaven Is for Real' is the remarkable story of one four-year old boy living in a small town in Nebraska who, following life-saving surgery, began to tell his family about how he was able to look down and see the doctor working to save his life and his dad praying in a small waiting room. As Carlton told his story the Burpo family didn't know what to believe, but when he began to talk about meeting a sister he never could have known his mother miscarried, and sharing impossible-to-know details about his great grandfather who had died 30 years before he was born, his parents Sonja and Todd realised that these couldn’t just be tales from a child’s vivid imagination. When his son went on to describe 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, Todd Burpo realised that his son had been to heaven, and that his story was a message people needed to hear. Narrated by Todd, but often in Colton's own words, the disarmingly simple message of this book is that heaven is a real place, Jesus really loves children, and that we should all be ready, for a final battle is coming. Heaven is For Real is a book that has believers and non-believers asking questions about our ultimate destination! It has been featured in both The Daily Mail and Daily Express newspapers and is becoming a bestseller around the world.
