He survives and begins talking about being able to look down and  see the doctor operating and his dad praying in the waiting room. The  family didn\u2019t know what to believe but soon the evidence was clear.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Colton said he met his miscarried sister, whom no one had told him  about, and his great grandfather who died 30 years before Colton was  born, then shared impossible-to-know details about each. He describes  the horse that only Jesus could ride, about how \u201creaaally big\u201d God and  his chair are, and how the Holy Spirit \u201cshoots down power\u201d from heaven  to help us.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Told by the father, but often in Colton\u2019s own words, the disarmingly  simple message is heaven is a real place, Jesus really loves children,  and be ready, there is a coming last battle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From DSC: I &#8220;happened to see&#8221; this book at Barnes &amp; Nobles the other day, and I started to read it.
