About this audiobook
New York Times bestseller
A kayak accident during a South American adventure takes one woman to heaven-where she experienced God's peace, joy, and angels-and back to life again.
In 1999 in the Los Rios region of southern Chile, orthopedic surgeon, devoted wife, and loving mother Dr. Mary Neal drowned in a kayak accident. While cascading down a waterfall, her kayak became pinned at the bottom and she was immediately and completely submerged. Despite the rescue efforts of her companions, Mary was underwater for too long, and as a result, died.
To Heaven and Back is Mary's remarkable story of her life's spiritual journey and what happened as she moved from life to death to eternal life, and back again. Detailing her feelings and surroundings in heaven, her communication with angels, and her deep sense of sadness when she realized it wasn't her time, Mary shares the captivating experience of her modern-day miracle.
Mary's life has been forever changed by her newfound understanding of her purpose on earth, her awareness of God, her closer relationship with Jesus, and her personal spiritual journey suddenly enhanced by a first-hand experience in heaven. To Heaven and Back will reacquaint you with the hope, wonder, and promise of heaven, while enriching you own faith and walk with God.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent well thought out book. Breathless. Astounding. God really shows his love for humanity. His transcending love has no limits
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This story will hit a cord in you, as the author’s honesty and experiences can’t be denied.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It’s one of those books that has helped me to keep my eyes fixed Jesus rather than on everything else and has leaded me to reflect and focus on my true purpose and mission on this earth. It just made me feel a little closer to God as it gave me this longing and desire to taste and see heaven and spend time in the presence of the Lord in a greater world than ours.
