Heaven is for Real: A Little Boy’s Astounding Story of His Trip to Heaven and Back

By Todd Burpo (Author), Lynn Vincent (Author) ‘Heaven is for Real’ by Todd Burpo was introduced to me when my pastor spoke about it in church.

Rush Revere and the First Patriots: Time-Travel Adventures With Exceptional Americans

However, after I got my hands on ‘The Burgess Boys’ it sucked me in right from the prologue. If the pages at the beginning of the book do not captivate you too, you should probably put down the book. Elizabeth clearly was given the gift of story telling, her prose is just beautiful and she digs deep down into the human […]
