Summary

SummaryI’m Heidi Barr, and at sixteen, my entire life shifted when a runaway horse crushed me and I unexpectedly left my body. Hovering above the crash, I noticed a golden light and recognized Jesusβ€”even though I was raised in an atheist Jewish home and had never expected to see Him. As I floated alongside Him, He guided me through a life review: I saw Him with me in every joy and suffering, rocking me to sleep as if He had always been by my side. Suddenly, we surfed on a wave of vibrant light, and I felt His love encompassing me, carrying me into what I now call Heaven. I saw infinite meadows of singing grass, glowing flowers, and quaking treesβ€”every detail alive with God’s light. When Jesus brought me before the Father, I sat on His lap like a child, overwhelmed by the love and infinitude of that living Light. Though I argued to stay, Jesus told me I needed to return. Back on Earth, hopelessness gave way to unshakable hope, for I knew God is real, Heaven is real, and He never leaves usβ€”even in tragedy. Through that encounter, I learned to live for Jesus, to love my family despite their disbelief, and to walk in faith, trusting that God holds every moment of my life. πŸ˜ŠπŸ™

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 16, 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.
