Customer Reviews

Sound and balanced

After reading Mary K Baxter's book, I was skeptical about purchasing anymore books about the afterlife. But after watching the Heaven/Hell documentary, it inspired me to purchase this book. I must say that this book is biblical! Joni doesnt conjure up any false visions or dreams about heaven. She sticks strickly with the scriptures, and also adds her real life experiences to express her thoughts of the heavenly realm.

Inspiration, Encouragement,

Jodi has given me such a wonderful outlook on life, people and faith. She has hit such a spot in my soul i cannot begin to share this very very special feelig. I feel truly as a soul inside a shell. The shell is nothing if the soul isn't doing. This is what this is about. God Bless this women and know that she has been given a gift and writing is it. Please read this book then discuss it with me. I would love to talk to anyone about it. Also I would love to know if I can get these books on tape. I have a dear friend with Huntington Disease. She cannot read anymore and I intend to give her these on tape to listen to.

MY FAVORITE BOOK--BESIDES THE BIBLE!

Joni truly has her eyes on the "prize"--Heaven! (see I Corinthians 9:24.) This book is so beautiful; it is really beyond words, it speaks from heart to heart. If you are reading this I truly believe you have been sent here and it is God's will for you to buy and read this book."Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Neither have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him." I Corinthians 2:9 THE HOLY BIBLEPerhaps Joni is the one exception to the above scripture! It is truly Amazing someone can take the limited scripture we have on Heaven and turn it into an inspiring, moving, exciting, and soul-stirring book! I wish this was in every home in the world! Once you start reading it is almost impossible to put down! And if you do, it won't be very long until you pick it up again! "Heaven Your Real Home" will make your soul ache and yearn for Heaven! Really wanting it will definitely help you get there!I leave you with the words of Jesus: "NOT EVERYONE WHO SAYS TO ME, 'LORD, LORD,' SHALL ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN BUT HE WHO DOES THE WILL OF MY FATHER IN HEAVEN." Matthew 7:21 THE HOLY BIBLE

This Book brings you into an eternal, Heavenbound perspectiv

Wow! I read this book while facing the death of loved ones for the first time and it changed my life. I always knew the scriptures and promises of heaven as a Christian's real home, but Joni brings it into reality. Soon after diving into it's chapters, You too will long for your real home...and the fulfillment that will come only from being face to face with our Heavenly Father and Saviour Jesus Christ. Joni reminds us that Heaven is so very real, and so close to us. Heaven cannot be described in human terms, but she does her best to get our thoughts churning in the right direction. This is a book I will go back to throughout the rest of my life!
