Book Review of 90 Minutes In Heaven: A True Story of Death and Life

90 Minutes In Heaven: A True Story of Death and Life
reviewed on + 4 more book reviews


I'd had this book on my "to-read" list for awhile, mostly given its popularity. Yes, I am a Christian, but I tend to be pretty picky about my Xtian reads, preferring more theological thinkers than fluffy light reads. So did the book fall into the latter of the two categories? Absolutely, without a doubt - but I say that knowing my own skeptic cynicism shines brightly through. I'd place it in the same category as "Heaven is for Reals", one that I'd much prefer to have read solely about the heaven experience, and not the aftermath of his journey. Piper is not a prolific writer, but his easy-reading style made it the perfect fit for 1 am feedings with a newborn.
