I spent a great deal of time absorbing your book Heaven. I want to tell you what a remarkable joy it was to find your book. I grew up in church and never understood anything about heaven. I'm 55 years old and always secretly dreaded dying and spending eternity in the kind of heaven where you sit around bored and singing, etc. I grew up hearing far, far more about hell. It always seemed too real. Now I can picture a heaven that is joyous to think about. It makes me even more anxious for my loved ones to know Christ and experience heaven with me.
Thank you for a well-written, in-depth, documented look at a subject that should be near and dear to every believer's heart.

I've just finished reading The Grace and Truth Paradox for the second time in two weeks, and it's been an amazing blessing in the deep troubles in my marriage, and in my own walk with Christ.

I just wanted to thank you for the answers to many of my questions in your book, Prolife Answers to Prochoice Arguments. I have some prochoice relatives and this information will help me to be able to answer their arguments with more intelligence and backup information to my answers. Thank you for your help in the prolife cause!

I'm now re-reading Heaven and holding myself back from underlining almost every sentence. In 1998 my husband had a massive stroke. In 10 seconds, after 50 years of marriage, our lives changed dramatically and, for the next 5 years, he was confined to a wheelchair and hospital bed.
By God's grace, we were both strong believers and my husband longed for death and release form his pain and suffering. He died a year and a half ago and there were days when I thought I never wanted to live without him. However, your book has given me a new, fresh perspective on life and death that has enabled me to understand the Bible more clearly and fully.
When our 4-year-old granddaughter asked, "Can Grandpa walk now?" I had visions of him jumping nimbly from rock to rock in a beautiful mountain stream (filled with rainbow trout). I can hardly wait to see him again and take up life where we left off.

EPM's website really is a treasure trove of great resources for today's Christians. I plan to do many of my future devotionals simply reading through some of the articles written by Randy and the EPM staff in addition to reading the Scripture. The front page to this site is really just a tip of the iceberg! Underneath it lies a huge block of ice containing so much wisdom and information that we need today to think eternally.

I was born and raised in the Buddhist religion but when I was eight I did pick up a Bible and converted to Christianity. Four years later I converted my mother.
I received a copy of your book, Edge of Eternity, when I was a sophomore in high school. I read it at a leisurely pace, not really getting into much detail. I am rounding 20 now, and have read the book over 9 times, only just now taking a highlighter and a fine tooth comb to the book. It truly is a work of art, and more importantly of God.

Your book The Ishbane Conspiracy has been an incredible blessing and helped work a miracle. My 22-year-old daughter was looking for a book to read and read Ishbane. It moved her much closer to the Lord in an amazing way and helped her to see stuff I had been trying to get her to see for years!
Then she gave it to my wife (whom I have been separated from for 51 weeks after repeated adultery by her). I had moved out and was about to serve divorce papers—here in Australia you have to wait 12 months.
The scales fell from her eyes like for Rob when he entered heaven in the book. She humbled herself before the Lord and repented. She came to my church this Sunday (the first time she had attended church in years). She is now saved and the Lord is calling us back together. He had kept me from finding anyone else during the last 12 months. Praise the Lord—His ways are mysterious but He has worked a miracle here. It will not be easy given the past but I know He is already renewing us both and our relationship.
