In his book Through the Eyes of God: A Supernatural Experience, Reverend Terrance G. Mackey, Sr., shares his personal encounter with God that began on June 28, 2010. The writer describes heaven as a beautiful place and indescribable. He tells the story of his out of body experience and how the Lord took him on a heavenly journey to show him things to come, things that are and things not to talk about. The Lord said, "I send you back with a message to the church. They have left their first love." He echoed to me John 13:34, "A new commandment I leave with you, that you love you love one another as I have loved you." My prayer and hope for those who read this book is that you come away knowing that the greatest weapon that we have is love for one another. "In every age there are men and women like Rev. Mackey who are raised up to simply believe God and allow Him to demonstrate His mighty power. This book is a record of his journey of faith that is both simple and profound. It basically portrays the doubts and fears which beset him in his early days of struggle for a meaningful faith. Granted, this is a record of a single minister and as remarkable as it is, Rev. Mackey's account does not stand alone. There are men who have honestly faced death and heaven and they've lived to tell about it. They have discovered that those who come back from the experiences are alive to bring a message back to the church. "You left your first love." Loving God, Loving the Church and loving one another is the message that Rev. Mackey received and charged to tell the church." Dr. Marcus E. Dixon
