Edge of Eternity
A disillusioned business executive whose life has hit a dead-end, Nick Seagrave has lost loved ones to tragedy and his family to neglect. Now, at a point of great crisis, he unbelievably and inexplicably finds himself transported to what appears to be another world.
Suddenly he’s confronted with profoundly clear views of his own past and personality. At the same time, he’s enabled to see, hear, taste, and smell the realities of both heaven and hell–realities that force him to face dangers and trials far greater than any he’s known before.
Pitted against flying beasts, a monstrous web that threatens to hold him captive, an evil, brooding intelligence, and undeniable evidence of a spiritual world, Nick must finally consider the God he claims not to believe in.
Walking between two worlds, Nick Seagrave prepares to make decisions that will change his life forever, as he stands on the Edge of Eternity.
Wow! what a great read.....an allegory of the Christian life.....and then just as he thinks he's entering eternity.....a change I didn't see coming....made me aware to live each day as though it could be my last....and so ever thankful for Grace!
I wasn't too sure at first if I would like this book, but as I read more and more, I was struck by the beauty and genius of this Christian allegory. It made me excited all over again to know the grace of God. Woohoo!
Great fiction scattered with biblical truths. Written for those who enjoy Christian fiction with a message and for those who need a reminder of why we are still here. This is a good book to give to a friend. I would highly recommend it for the joy of reading. Some thinking is necessary which is the kind that I like. This is my second Randy Alcorn book to read.
This is a cool book- it is one i can turn back to and read again and again.
In this book, the central character is whisked into another worldworlds, actually, that overlap. Here he experiences the hereafter, while still alive. I have mixed emotions about this book. While some of the lessons learned through this allegorical-style tale are valuable and reinforce important Biblical teachings, the writing-style and other story elements were, in my opinion, rather lacking. I never felt connected to any of the characters save one, they never felt alive. The only one that was
I really enjoyed reading this book. I rate it with John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress. If you liked Pilgrim's Progress, you will definitely like Edge of Eternity. Throughout the story you will find familiar Scripture referred to as Nick Seagrave (the main character) tries to find his way heaven.
