Inches From Heaven
Between this life and the next; a near-death journey and the voice of God

Book Details
About the Book
A Story That Had to Be Told
In 2016, Lindsey Cockerell nearly died. During childbirth, she suffered an Amniotic Fluid Embolism — a rare, catastrophic event that kills most of its victims. Lindsey survived. But what happened in those moments between life and death changed everything.
She heard the voice of God. She was given a choice. And she was sent back.
For nine years, Lindsey carried this experience privately — processing it, questioning it, and eventually finding the courage to write it down. Inches From Heaven is the result: a raw, honest, and deeply personal account of what it means to stand at the threshold of eternity and return.
This is not a book about theology. It's a testimony. And it's for anyone who has ever wondered whether God is real, whether He is near, and whether He speaks.
— Lindsey Cockerell
