A day later all of that changed.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA simple surgery went horribly wrong. Steve Sjogren died on the operating table. He encountered a heavenly world where he felt infinite peace. And then he had to come back--back to a physical reality filled with pain and disability and an endless line of tests. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe drama of dying suddenly paled in comparison to the trauma of living. Sjogren could not face this new existence with his same old comfortable understanding of God. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"I had minimized God,\" Sjogren says. \"Somehow, over time, he had become fairly predictable--like he could be outlined, fully grasped, and contained in a neat set of mere ideas. Now I saw that he apparently wasn't all that impressed with my cool little notebooks.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne day in heaven followed by hundreds in agony forged a deeper and stronger faith than Sjogren could have crafted on his own. In \u003ci\u003eHeaven's Lessons\u003c\/i\u003e, Sjogren shares his experiences and the life-changing ways they have affected his perspective on success, suffering, and the mysteries of God.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWatch the trailer here: http: \/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5l4jugXqiBU\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Nelson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/18\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781400204311\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.30w x 0.60d","brand":"Steve Sjogren","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52732255010997,"sku":"9781400204311","price":16.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-heavens-lessons-ten-things-i-learned-about-god-when-i-died-9781400204311","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
