Amid the cessations, he experienced visions of heaven. In two cases, he was visited from friends long passed who gave him advice and instructions for when he returned to life. Even devout believers often wonder if there is a heaven. This book helps answer that question.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTom is America's most traveled outdoorsman.
