In Routed to Heaven, Julie Bonn Blank shares the story that changed everything: a medical crisis that stopped her heart, ushered her into Heaven, and placed her face to face with Jesus Himself. In that sacred encounter, she experienced His overwhelming love, witnessed the breathtaking beauty of Heaven, and received a mission that would forever redirect her life.
But this book is more than one extraordinary testimony.
Routed to Heaven weaves together over twenty powerful near-death (NDE) and afterlife accounts, each offering a glimpse beyond the veil and a confirmation that Heaven is real, God is active, and time is far more urgent than we realize. From miraculous healings to divine encounters, these stories echo one truth: eternity intersects with our lives far more often than we imagine.
What sets this book apart is its purpose.
Julie doesn't leave readers inspired yet unsure what to do next. Each testimony is paired with thoughtful reflection and practical guidance that confronts the real barriers keeping believers from living with eternal intention-fear, grief, trauma, unforgiveness, mental health struggles, spiritual warfare, and waiting on God's timing.
Through what she calls a Heaven-Minded Mission Manifesto, Julie invites readers to move from passive faith to active obedience. She equips them with spiritual tools such as deep prayer, worship, gratitude, belief, love, and reliance on the Holy Spirit-helping them not just endure the times we're living in, but live boldly within them.
With honesty forged through personal suffering-including abuse recovery, loss, and seasons of profound testing-Julie writes from the trenches, not from a distance. Her voice is compassionate, courageous, and anchored in unwavering devotion to Jesus.
Whether you are seeking hope, healing, purpose, or confirmation that Heaven is real, Routed to Heaven bridges the gap between eternity and everyday life-showing how a glimpse of Heaven should transform how we live today.
