This past weekend, I went to the movies to see Heaven is for Real. The movie is based on the #1 New York Times best-selling book of the same name, Heaven is for Real. It is a true story of a small- town father who must find the courage and conviction to share's his son's extraordinary, life-changing experience with the world. His son claims to have visited Heaven during a near death experience. Colton didn't actually die; he was just under some really good anesthesia during an appendectomy. Colton recounts the details of his amazing journey with childlike innocence and speaks matter-of-factly about things that happened before his birth ... things he couldn't possibly know and things that his family has not told him. When pressed by Todd, Colton insists that Jesus informed him on these matters. Todd and his family are then challenged to examine the meaning from this remarkable event. I personally loved the movie. I had read the book beforehand, so the movie fit perfectly with the plotline of the book. The movie opened my eyes and I was very touched. It brings Heaven to life and you realize that in one second your life could be taken away. You need to go through life acting like today is the last day: make the best out of everything.
