Todd Burpo

Dios es Real aborda las preguntas: C mo es Dios? Por qu son las cosas como son, a pesar de quien Dios es? Si el primer libro de Todd, El Cielo es Real, fue sobre el "entonces y all " del cielo, Dios es Real es sobre el "aqu y ahora" en la tierra: Por qu hay tantos hip critas de iglesia? Por qu los cristianos hacen de la cruz un asunto tan importante? Por qu Dios no parece contestar nuestras oraciones m s grandes? Las personas est n cansadas de las respuestas adecuadas que se ofrecen en lenguaje de iglesia explicando sus preguntas; nosotros queremos la verdad directa y expl cita. Lo que nos molesta de la vida y la fe es real y rudo. Necesitamos una voz franca que brinde las respuestas de Dios a las luchas dif ciles y a las dudas que duelen. Todd va a la carga sobre estos temas con el valor de un bombero, la vulnerabilidad de un amigo de pueblo, y la compasi n de un pastor local. l ayuda a articular las preguntas que tienen las personas, y luego les aporta sabidur a b blica relevante para que den sus siguientes pasos en la fe. Dios est preparado para conocerte. Est s t preparado para conocerle? God is for Real addresses the questions: What is God like? Why are things the way they are in spite of who God is? If Todd's first book, Heaven Is for Real, was about the then and there of heaven, God is Real is about the here and now on earth. Why are there are so many hypocritical church people? Why do Christians make such a big deal about the cross? Why doesn't God seem to answer our biggest prayers? People are tired of pat answers offered up in churchy language explaining away their questions; we want the down-and-dirty truth. What bothers us about life and faith is real and gritty. We need a plain-spoken voice to offer God's answers to difficult struggles and painful doubts. Todd charges into these subjects with a fireman's courage, a small-town friend's vulnerability, and a local pastor's compassion. He helps articulate the questions people have, then gives them relevant biblical wisdom for taking their next steps in faith. God is ready to meet you Are you ready to meet Him?

"Det var där som änglarna sjöng för mig." När Colton Burpo klarade sig igenom en allvarlig bukhinne­in­flam­mation efter en sprucken blindtarm var familjen överlycklig över hans mirakulösa tillfrisknande. Men under månaderna efter opera­tionen framträdde en berättelse som de inte var beredda på – en berättelse lika vacker som storslagen, som beskrev deras lille pojkes resa till himlen och tillbaka. Colton, som ännu inte hade fyllt fyra, berättade för sina föräldrar att han lämnade sin kropp under operationen – och bevisade det genom att exakt beskriva vad hans föräldrar gjorde i en annan del av sjukhuset under tiden han blev opererad. Han berättade att han besökt himlen och återgav vad han hört från människor där som han aldrig träffat i sitt liv och beskrev händelser som skedde innan han föddes. Han förvånade också sina föräldrar genom sina beskrivningar med svårförståeliga detaljer som stämde överens med Bibeln till punkt och pricka, trots att han ännu inte lärt sig läsa. Med en avväpnande oskuldsfullhet och med ett barns frispråkighet berättar Colton om att han mötte avlidna släktingar. Han beskriver Jesus, änglarna, hur "riktigt, riktigt stor" Gud är och hur mycket Gud älskar oss. Återberättad av hans far, men med Coltons unika och enkla språk ger Himlen finns på riktigt en glimt av den värld som väntar oss, där som Colton säger: "Ingen är sjuk och ingen har glasögon." Himlen finns på riktigt kommer att förändra hur du ser på livet efter detta och ger dig möjlighet att se och tro som ett barn.

En treårig kille ... en mirakulös resa till himlen ... och ett mycket viktigt budskap till barnen ... Jesus älskar VERKLIGEN barnen. Och han älskar VERKLIGEN dig! I den här boken berättar Colton med egna ord om vad han var med om när han besökte himlen. Han beskriver hur det är att möta Jesus, hur himlen ser ut och vilka personer man kommer att möta i himlen. Colton ger svar på frågor barn har, till exempel: Finns det djur i himlen? Hur stora är änglarna? Boken bygger på den mycket uppskattade boken ”Himlen finns på riktigt”. Förutom Coltons egen berättelse, ur ett barns perspektiv, kompletteras boken med vackra målningar. Boken: • Hjälper barnen att lita på att himlen finns på riktigt och att himlen är ett glatt ställe. • Ger föräldrar en utgångspunkt för att prata med sina barn om himlen och hur man kommer dit. • Innehåller bibelord om himlen och en sektion med frågor och svar. Himlen finns på riktigt, och du kommer att tycka om den!

Da ColtonBurpo overlevde sprukken blindtarm, var familien overlykkelig over miraklet. Det de ikke var forberedt på, var det som kom for dagen i månedene etterpå - en fortelling like vakker som den var uvanlig, om den lille guttens snarvisitt i Himmelen. Colton, som ennå ikke hadde fylt fire år, fortalte foreldrene at han var utenfor kroppen under operasjonen - og han skildret nøyaktig hva foreldrene holdt på med akkurat da i en annen del av sykehuset. Han snakket om besøket i Himmelen og gjenfortalte ting han hadde hørt av mennesker han hadde truffet der, personer han aldri hadde møtt her i livet og som fortalte ham om ting som skjedde til og med før han ble født. "Himmelen er på or'ntli" er Coltons fortelling, gjengitt av faren og gir oss et glimt av den verden som venter oss. En verden der "ingen er gamle og ingen bruker briller", ifølge Colton.
