Five-week women’s book study to focus on ‘Imagine the God of Heaven: Near Death Experiences’

Posted

If you could behold what heaven and hell were like, would you change how you live? What if the existence of a loving God was proved by non-Christians? 

Questions like these will be discussed during an upcoming book study hosted by the Pagosa Springs Catholic Women’s Fellowship. The book being studied is “Imagine the God of Heaven: Near Death Experiences,” written by New York Times bestselling author John Burke. 

A self-described skeptical agnostic turned Christian, Burke’s investigative journey started after his father died from cancer. 

With millions of people around the world reporting a near-death experience, Burke has dedicated the past three decades studying the commonalities of stories from those brought back from clinical death. 

His comprehensive analysis not only proved the existence of a wondrous God that correlated with the Bible, it changed the course of his life and beliefs. 

Burke’s book introduces true stories of nearly 70 people from every continent, ethnicity and social status. True stories that include many who did not believe in the existence of God, heaven or hell prior to being clinically dead and subsequently resuscitated. 

The captivating stories of Burke’s book reveal God’s kingdom, His loving story for us, and His invitation for a personal relationship that starts here and now. 

All women seeking a community of women with hearts turned toward God are invited to unveil the wonders of Burke’s book in a small group format. The book is available online. 

The five-week book study will start with a video introduction on Monday, April 14, followed by the second session on April 28. 

The Women’s Fellowship meets at Pope John Paul II Catholic Church, located at 353 S. Pagosa Blvd. Rosary is at 9 a.m., followed by the book study and fellowship from 9:30 to 11 a.m.
