Inspiring ( ) On 10 December 2009, Crystal McVea, mother of four, thirty-two years old, stopped breathing and fell into unconsciousness. She left her hospital room and spent nine minutes in heaven. Nine minutes in the presence of angels. Nine minutes in the presence of God. This is her story. A sort of a memoir, a look at the past and present of her life, interspersed with her remembrances from those nine minutes spent in the presence of the Creator. Her return to her earthly life came with God’s words: “Tell them what you can remember.” And so she has. Against the cruelty and difficulty of her life, she discovered uplifting words of peace and love as she experienced the glory of heaven and spent nine minutes with God. Recommended. Wake Up In Heaven by Crystal McVea ★★★ This isn’t my normal kind of book. While I would call myself spiritual, that’s as far as I would go. Many of these books of this genre have been known to make me uncomfortable but when my therapist handed it to me, insisting it would help me out, I took it because trust me, I need all the help I can get ;-). The author doesn’t hold anything back. She tells her life story, how she got where she is and all her experiences. It is sad, emotional, raw, and completely honest. Life was rough for her when she was younger and I wanted to just wrap her up in my arms. She talks about the good and the bad, even the very bad. I give her credit for her ability to be so honest, to share her story with complete strangers; it couldn’t have been easy at all. Its matter of fact and not too preachy, which I liked (she had the attitude of “this is what I went through, your choice to believe it or not”). She just frankly tells her life story and her experience in the 9 minutes she was considered dead (as in she stop having any sort of breathing, pulse, etc but was not pronounced by a doctor) – where she went to Heaven. The last part of the book was a tad more preachy than the rest and repetitive. This book would have been better if it had been cut just a bit. I may not have agreed with everything the author said and I’m still up in the air about many issues but either way her story is commendable and a comfort. A very uplifting book about someone who really lived a wild youth can still be assured the promise of everlasting life. The description of her time in heaven only takes up a handful of the book, with the rest being about her life. The last 25 or so pages can be re-read for daily encouragement. A big take away is to obey those nudges from God! keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
