Summary

What if you woke up one morning knowing that it was your last day on earth? That's what happened to the thief on the cross, who died a few feet from Jesus. Heaven, How I Got Here is his story, told in his own words, as he looks back from Heaven on the day that changed his eternity, and the faith that can change yours.

Awesome listen!

This is such an impactful listen! A great reflection for me today on Good Friday as I listened to the perspective of the thief on the cross. Beautifully narrated and presented I highly recommend it to anyone searching for answers about the amazing gift of salvation that Jesus freely offers us all.

Truer words were never spoken!

All that the written word is capable of producing in us is powerfully and graphically displayed in Mr. Smith's work. We don't know the name of the thief but somehow my/your name fits. The same Christ that saved the unnamed thief then still responds to sincere hearts now.

Lacking ....

The topic is insurmountably important, the delivery is excellent, but the depth and development of the story was lacking. It could have been more effective as a much shorter story.

Still, I appreciated the attempt to reach the unsaved.

Surreal

brought to me a new understanding of Christ love for me dying on the cross, that final breath, the final chance at redemption.
