I am friends with Dr. Paul Enns, an internationally know and respected Christian theologian. He teaches theology at the seminary level and is an associate pastor at a major Baptist church. There is an extensive list of books that he has written, including the Moody Handbook of Theology, to be found on the Amazon website.

Dr. Enns does not recommend 90 Minutes in Heaven because it is based upon subjective experience with no way to substantiate the claims. He recommends Heaven by Randy Alcorn, also to be found on the Amazon website, as being Biblically based, with all of the descriptions of Heaven based upon specific portions of the Bible. There is an intriguing section dealing with the question of whether or not we will have pets in Heaven. I have read Heaven and agree with Dr. Enns. Dr. Enns became deeply involved in a study of Heaven upon the sudden and untimely death of his beloved wife, and he has also written a book on the subject which is also listed on Amazon.

Dr. Enns teaches seminary courses, open to degree seeking and non-degree students at the campus of Idlewild Baptist Church in Lutz, (north of Tampa) Florida.
