Riassunto

At age nineteen, pilot Dale Black miraculously survived an airplane crash that killed the other two pilots on board. Hovering between life and death for three days, he had a breathtaking experience of heaven. Against all odds and with insurmountable injuries, Capt. Black recovered from his injuries and returned to fly airplanes as a professional pilot, airline pilot instructor, and jet flight examiner. For forty years he kept the story to himself at the urging of his grandfather to "live" his experience rather than talk about it. The flight to heaven changed Dale's life, and now he allows it to be told in hopes of encouraging others with this wondrous experience.

Recensione:

At only age 19, Dale Black was severely injured in a plane crash. While in a coma, he experienced heaven. He only shared the wonderment of it with his grandfather, who advised him to live his life in the light of what he had seen, and not put himself in the limelight and live off the experience. Dale recovered, learnt to fly again and put his skills into hundreds of Christian ministry flights, as well as being a pilot and instructor. The young pilot listened to the wisdom of his grandfather and for forty years, until now, has kept secret his extraordinary time in heaven. I read Black's account to a friend who had lost a close relative. With tears running down his fact, he took comfort in knowing that what God allowed Dale Black to see was now a reality for that friend. Thank you, Capt. Black for sharing your experience with us. --Catherine Clark, for The Christian Marketplace

An account of flawed humanity encountering the sacred. A journey that started at what could have been the end of Dale Blacks life, a journey he's traveled for 40 years. This book takes you alongside Dale on his journey as he is totally changed by God. --Chester
