The Story
Chris Batts, a man with a history of abuse and depression, caused his NDE by attempting suicide. He jumped out of a moving car after an argument and a hurtful call from his mother, hitting his head on the concrete. During the NDE, Chris entered a colorful void. A powerful presence introduced itself as God, confirming angels exist and offering to introduce them, which he declined. He wanted to return to Earth to perfect himself, but God insisted he was loved as is. A projection screen showed God loving all people equally. Chris felt a warm, motherly hug from God. God instructed him to return and tell everyone of His love. He saw clouds with a police station, church, and tossed Bibles, reflecting his fears. Swarms of angels appeared; two held him back from a hole in the cloud. One stern angel asked if he was sure, while a gentle one said he had much to do for many. He viewed his body from above, then zoomed in on paramedics and his friend. Given a choice, he decided to return. After the NDE, Chris woke in the ICU after days in a coma. He no longer fears death and stopped using substances. He now understands people deeply, sees spirits in animals and plants, studies, wrote a book, and focuses on suicide prevention to spread messages of love and purpose.
