A Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist reports heaven is realRoger Snell's career as a newspaper reporter exposed cops who owned crack houses. He shed light on vehicle defects causing fiery accidents that killed more than 100 people. His reporting on ethical abuses led an angry Ohio Supreme Court justice to break the ribs of another justice he thought was a source of leaks.
In his 19-year career, Snell wrote over 3,000 stories and won top investigative awards, including the Pulitzer Prize, shared with a newsroom of talented reporters. But when his health unraveled, Snell won what appeared to be his final assignment reporting on his near-death experiences.
In Love, Grandpa, Snell records heavenly messages in his memoir dedicated to his 2-year-old granddaughter.
"I sought to change the world. Instead, this wonderful world changed me."
After years of digging for dirt and seeking the worst in people, Snell learned to see the world differently when he became a bishop for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Soon, he was surrounded by faithful and extraordinary members who turned life's tests into testimony, including his own daughter who lost her son 40 days after birth.
Snell describes his own life's conversion as switching from demolition to construction.
Inspiring faith, hope, and humor for his granddaughter's future, this book will help you see a troubled and contentious world differently.
What if you were certain about life after this one?
Would you seek a more meaningful life?
