The Book
What really happens when we die? Before You Croak pulls back the curtain with an unprecedented blend of real near-death experiences, biblical insight, and historical and scientific evidence that challenges the way we think about the moment our lives end … and what begins next. Inside these pages are gripping accounts from people who briefly crossed the threshold—encounters with the afterlife brought clarity they could never forget.
Drawing from Scripture, famous death-bed experiences, early church testimony, medical cases, and modern investigations, Before You Croak offers a compelling, hope-filled look at the reality of life after death. Whether you are a skeptic, a believer, or simply curious, this book will open your eyes, steady your heart, and invite you to reconsider everything you thought you knew about what lies ahead.
You might be surprised to learn that God's not looking at your deeds, He's looking at your faith.
Death is not the end. When you have peace with God, it's the beginning of the greatest adventure of all.

This book should convince the reader that there is an afterlife destination for each of us. Heaven and Hell are real places. The testimonies about Hell in this book are powerful, giving any reader pause.
Where we go is our decision.
Tim and Beth also share how you can be confident in your destination by sharing the difference between religion and relationship.
Your afterlife destination is the most important decision you will ever make or not make.
As the book argues, why gamble on eternity?
Paul & Carolann
This book captivated us in so many ways. We loved the heart behind the book, to make Jesus known to those that don’t know him yet and to provide evidence of Jesus through scriptures and testimonials.
The stories about hell really stirred our spirit and made us want to share our faith with people in our life that don’t yet know him. It also challenged us to grow closer in our relationship with him.
This book will be a great tool to share with everyone in our lives, believer or non-believer. It will give them hope that they too can have the assurance of an eternal home in heaven.
Carol
I absolutely enjoyed every word of Before You Croak. There is a DEFINITE need for its content and I already have a list in my mind of individuals to whom I want to give a copy.
Time and again, hurting people have confided in me their wish to leave this world as soon as possible, yet they have no comfort or certainty about what comes next.
I truly believe this book has the power to touch lives across the globe. Everyone should have the chance to read it.
Thank you again for the privilege of allowing me to read it in advance. Hallelujah!
Shelley
This is a must read! I'm going to buy a ton of these to share with everyone I love.
I was especially touched by the chapters on Heaven and Hell. The testimonies of those with near death experiences shook me to my core, and compelled me to dive deeper into my personal relationship with the Lord.
I love the Lord and want everyone I know to experience a relationship with God and the assurance of having their eternal home in heaven.
I am so glad I know where I am going when the time comes. I hope and pray everyone reads this.
