UntitledToday’s message is inspired in part by the new movie HEAVEN IS FOR REAL,
based on the well known book Heaven is for Real by Todd Burpo. Todd is
Pastor of Crossroads Wesleyan Church in Imperial, Nebraska. He is the
father of Colton Burpo, who during an emergency appendectomy and miraculous
recovery, recalls in detail his trip to heaven and back. Colton, not yet
four years old, told his parents he left his body during the surgery and
authenticated that claim by describing exactly what his parents were doing
in another part of the hospital during his operation. Colton talked of
visiting heaven and relayed stories told him by people he met there—people
whom he had never met in his life—sharing events that happened even before
he was born and giving astonishing descriptions and obscure details about
heaven that match the Bible exactly. When young Colton Burpo was asked by
the book editor, “What do you want people to know from your story?” Colton,

without hesitation replied, “I want them to know that heaven is for real.”
