Heaven Is for Real is the true story of the four-year old son of a small town Nebraska pastor who, during emergency surgery, slips from consciousness and enters heaven. The family didn’t know what to believe but soon the evidence was clear. Colton said he met his miscarried sister whom no one had told him about, and his great grandfather who died 30 years before Colton was born, then shared impossible-to-know details about each. The disarmingly simple message is heaven is a real place, Jesus really loves children, and there is a coming last battle.
