About this listen

"You were on your way home when you died. It was a car accident. Nothing particularly remarkable, but fatal nonetheless. You left behind a wife and two children. It was a painless death. The EMTs tried their best to save you, but to no avail. Your body was so utterly shattered you were better off, trust me. And that’s when you met me."

A short story about the universe.

Thought provoking, extremely thought provoking with God having a very simple conversation with a recently deceased man.
Well worth the cost of the download.

I can't speak high enough praise for this book. It's simple, short, and concise but in that short period of time it's also immensely thought provoking.

This man seriously just wrote a Bible you can read in 8 minutes
