Heaven is for Real Deluxe Edition By Todd Burpo with Lynn Vincent - Review

After hearing and reading quite a lot of reviews about this book, I was recently able to read "Heaven is for Real" and form my own opinion about it. Although I was skeptical about the credibility of this book I was really interested in the story itself.

 First of all, I don't know if anyone else felt the same way but I always thought this book was written from the perspective of Colton, the boy who supposedly experienced heaven. This is not the case. Nonetheless this book was an easy and mostly interesting read.

Anyway, the father, who is also the pastor, is the actual author of this book and basically writes about how his son got sick and eventually recovered.  It then goes on to how Colton knew things that no one ever told him about ans started telling his parents about God and Jesus, etc. Although the latter part of the book was really interesting, I have to admit that this book starts out pretty slow and I was really expecting the book to be more about what Colton experienced in heaven.

Overall this book was very inspiring as well as an interesting read. I would recommend that everyone read it and form their own opinion about it.
