5/8/2023 0 Comments Heaven is for real bookIt should be noted that the objective of this review is not to question the character of Todd or Colton Burpo but to observe and compare this reported “new revelation” experience of heaven in light of the revealed truth of Scripture. The method for properly examining such claims is for one to weigh the author’s claims against the Scriptural evidence. Did he have an out of the body experience in heaven or is this experience the product of a child’s vivid imagination? Critical Evaluation Whether true or false, the story forces the reader to make assessments about Colton’s supernatural claims. Todd Burpo, who speaks for Colton in the first person in the book, gives the reader vivid images and accounts that he supposedly experienced while his body was lying on the operating table. Burpo claims that his son’s experience occurred while undergoing an emergency appendectomy in the hospital, a few years before he wrote the book. In an attempt to give the reader insight into the glorious place called “heaven,” pastor and author Todd Burpo, records the experiences of his three year old son, Colton Burpo, who allegedly visited the place called heaven.
