All of us long to know what life after death will be like. Bestselling author John Burke is no exception. In Imagine Heaven, Burke compares over 100 gripping stories of near-death experiences (NDEs) to what Scripture says about our biggest questions of Heaven: Will I be myself? Will I see friends and loved ones? What will Heaven look like? What is God like? What will we do forever? What about children and pets?
For decades, Burke has been studying accounts of survivors brought back from near death who lived to tell of both heavenly and hellish experiences. While not every detail of individual NDEs correlate with Scripture, Burke shows how the common experiences shared by thousands of survivors--including doctors, college professors, bank presidents, people of all ages and cultures, and even blind people--point to the exhilarating picture of Heaven promised in the Bible.
This thrilling journey into the afterlife will make you feel like you've been there. It will forever change the way you view the life to come and the way you live your life today. You'll discover Heaven is even more amazing than you've ever imagined.

Allowed me to view eternity in a new way
Overall - great stories, but really terrible audiobook reader
-
The book is really interesting and I loved the stories, but the reader is so awful. His normal reading voice could be fine, but whenever he reads any dialogue or spoken sections, he uses very strange, distracting accents and exaggerated tones. Even whenever he reads scripture or words of Jesus, he uses goofy voices that feel disrespectful, even mocking. My kids and I found the reader very annoying. Personally, I don't think a book like this needs any kind of acting performance...the stories speak for themselves.
Overall - Wonderful book!!! Terrible narration.

The book is wonderful!! It deserves 5 stars, however the audiobook is terrible. I read the book along with the audiobook and narrator does not read exactly as the book is written. There are many differences in quotes, stories, and even changes in which scriptures of referenced (example on page 190). His accents and voices of women and children are a distraction to such a powerful book.

- Great content- bad reading

amazing content. I highly recommend reading this book BUT the audio version might distract you from the content. The reader's attempt to sound like women, children and foreigners is horrible. Just a straight reading without trying to sound like the person being quoted in the book would have sufficed.

Interesting stories but the reader's attempt at accents was terrible.
