Almost every interview wants the 3-year-old. This one is for the 27-year-old.
Colton Burpo nearly died at age 3 when his appendix ruptured. What he said he saw became Heaven Is for Real — 10 million copies, a film, 20 years of headlines. He is now a husband, a father, an electrician, and a worship pastor.
We did not retell the operating-room story. We asked what a man does with it 23 years later:
• What he wishes people asked instead of “What did Jesus look like?”
• How he keeps the original memory from being worn down by a thousand retellings
• The high-school years he felt like a fraud
• What replaced sitting on Jesus’ lap
• Why he chose a trade instead of a full-time heaven circuit
• What he would say to a Christian living in fear they will not “make it”
• A direct word to parents who have buried a child
If you are grieving, start at 47:12.
If you are afraid of the other side, start at 39:05.
