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.
Have you ever wondered what lies beyond this life? Imagine Heaven takes you on an eye-opening journey through the intriguing accounts of near-death experiences, weaving them with the promises outlined in scripture, to paint a compelling picture of the afterlife.

Experiences from diverse cultures reveal common threads in visions of heaven. Biblical promises align remarkably with reported near-death experiences. Hope and anticipation in the afterlife can enhance earthly life's purpose.

The book intricately connects the dots between personal accounts and scriptural assurances highlighting similarities in how heaven is described across testimonies and religious texts. Readers are led to understand that these experiences are more than coincidental; they echo the profound truths embedded within ancient scriptural promises. An engaging narrative style invites readers to ponder life's grandest questions encouraging you to reflect on your own spiritual beliefs and life purpose.

I have been looking for a book like this since the '70s. John Burke did a compilation of over a thousand reports of people who have had a Near Death Experience (NDE); what similarities they had regardless of race, religion, nationality, sex, age. It is beyond fascinating. It is a real glimpse of what Heaven will be when we get there!! And brace yourself, there's a chapter on those who went to Hell. We need to know this!!!
I truly never wanted this book to end. I loved it. It’s well written and it had me smiling on almost every page. I highly recommend that people buy and read this book. I believe everything that is said in the book and frankly, it has left me longing for Heaven. See you there!
This is a wonderful book and gives you an excited interest in the afterlife.
The book “Imagine Heaven” is Amazing, There’s So Much hope and joy, when you read it.Lord has Blessed me and many many more other people, through these testimonies of hope of amazing heavenly life to come 🙏
I liked the fact that the author used sources that did not do this for money, or try and write a book about their experience to make a profit. He gathered experiences from all over the world, different cultures, and ages. I also liked the fact that we are getting a preview of Heaven! Would definitely recommend and have!
I am finding this book to be very helpful . I lost my dear husband to cancer 6 months ago , and the NDE cases give me much support in this season of my life . It is well written and I can go forward or back to any story whenever I wish . Beautiful stories .
I was a little skeptical about reading a book regarding Heaven but this book was both an interesting and fascinating collection of near death experiences and first-hand accounts of what people have seen and heard in the afterlife. The testimonies were believable and credible and offer a glimpse into what awaits believers when they enter eternity.
NDEer's is another wild journey to learn about. John Burke did a phenomenal job writing & recording each person's experiences. It's eye opening. It will make you think about your life & how you live it. Plus, believing in Jesus! Praise God for these stories. Hope it touches your hearts as it has done mine.
