Heaven Is for Real (film)
Plot
As both parents suffered appendicitis, Sonja accurately guesses Colton is suffering from it. They rush to the hospital, where he undergoes emergency surgery for acute appendicitis. As the rupture happened days previously, Colton is not given a good prognosis. His mother asks everyone they know to pray. Finally, he pulls through, then immediately asks to return to touch an animal he had feared before.
Plot
Back in Denver to touch the tarantula, Colton tells his incredulous father about having seen the surgeon operating on his ruptured appendix, Sonja calling people in the waiting room to pray, and him in the hospital's chapel yelling at God to not let him die. Then at home, Cassie tells their father that Colton has been speaking oddly, then the boy elaborately describes things he saw in heaven.
Plot
Colton speaks about his experiences in Heaven, and Todd is faced with the dilemma of determining the legitimacy of his son's experience. Todd's wariness about discussing the situation erodes the confidence of the board members of his church, and he is contacted by several members of the media.
