Hell and Back Review

Here is an email I recently recieved that moved me deeply. I am humbled more each day as this story is read and loved. A story that I supposedly created from my own innate brilliance or wit. The more other people are moved by it, the more I feel that I was merely a stenographer. SC Sherman.

The following is from Becca Potter.

Soooo I read the book you sent and finished it in like 4 days, which is pretty incredible as I normally don't even start reading books because I don't have time, but just couldn't put it down. I was totally blessed and encouraged by this book. It was entertaining in that I wanted to follow the story line to the end; but it was also challenging and very thought provoking. It caused me to think deeper and look closer. I loved how you were just reading along and then you would just hit this line that plowed its way straight through your mind and settled in your heart like a penny settles to the bottom of a well. There were profound truths expressed in ways that allowed me a deeper understanding, amazing. I would also say that the depiction of heaven is one that I have embraced in many ways. An excitement has been birthed within me to be fully united with my King that was not there before. There is a glimpse of what it could be like to be free of time, space, distance, physical need and yet seeing that what God created on earth is in fact a type and shadow of that which awaits us in perfection. Tammy and I talked for 20 or 30 minutes tonight about different things that stood out to us, provoked us. Anyway, not that my opinion is of any great literary value but please pass along to Steve that as a sister in Christ I was blessed by the work of the Holy Spirit in him!






Love you sis!! Thanks so much for giving us the book!!
