What I Saw in Heaven

The Incredible True Story of the Day I Died, Met Jesus, and Returned to Life a New Person

By: Heidi Barr, John Burke - foreword

Narrated by: Nan McNamara

Heidi Barr didn't believe in Jesus. No one in her Jewish family did, nor did they want to—especially not her father, who told her that Jesus Christ was the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on humankind. So when Heidi was in a terrible horseback riding accident and died at age sixteen, Jesus was the last person she expected to see. Yet she did. And then she returned to life.

This is the incredible true story of Heidi's difficult family life, her sudden death, her unexpectedly loving encounter with Jesus, and her return to life on earth as a person completely and irrevocably changed. This is also the story of Heidi loving her father and mother despite their disbelief of and disagreement with her faith. And this is the gripping, beautiful story of her parents' eventual reconciliation both with Heidi and with God, through the redeeming grace and all-encompassing love of Jesus Christ.

how much God loved Heidi in spite of all of her ups and downs. how he had been with her since her birth. that is a loving God!

I loved the book and feel blessed to have read it. It was so good for the soul. My spirit was elated and sore at times. I grieved with her at times and laughed with her but always rooted for her!

Your wholesomeness

I liked the flow of the events and how you expressed yourself as well as the others impacting your journey.

Raw, emotional, beautiful, & imperfectly perfect just like our walk with Christ.

I personally relate to this author in many ways. Have gone to Heaven & met Jesus. Have suffered abuse although different, many ways the same. I say all this to say, this story, her story, HIS STORY is written so well. I cried, I laughed, I grimaced.. So many hunan emotions spilled out of me like a fountain. Our testimony of Jesus is rocky. Its perfectly imperfect, yet intentional & wonderful. Even if you've never gone to Heaven. Even if you haven't experienced some form of abuse, you would do well to listen to this. Beautiful story & testimony. Thank you to the author, & the wonderful narrator who told the story so beautifully and helped it truly come to life! God bless all!

This story was very well written.

I have heard many different stories of NDE’s and this one was amazing and it was spiritually moving. I suggest this book highly. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I Love Heidi Barr

I love her spirit, honesty, patience, forgiveness. I love how she knew Jesus was always with her even as a small child
