Real stories 2

Ian McCormack
You might be tempted to think of the scenario of The Shock of Your Life as just fiction. However, we know of someone who would appear to have actually experienced something of what the book describes.

New Zealander Ian McCormack was diving for crayfish in the tropics when he was stung five times by one of the most deadly creatures on earth - the Box Jellyfish or 'sea wasp.' The resulting critical paralysis of his nervous system and severe delay in getting hospital treatment meant that Ian was eventually pronounced dead.

Not a Christian at that point, he experienced something of the utter darkness and despair of a place without God, as well as amazing visions of heaven and a breathtaking encounter with Jesus himself. Like Dan in The Shock of Your Life, it wasn't Ian's time yet, and he came back to life.

These few sentences can't do justice to the remarkable and dramatic story of this glimpse of eternity. Watch this space for more details of the story as well as information about how you can get hold of an at-cost, no-profit video of Ian sharing the story of his conversion.

They give the Sea Wasp the highest 'deadliness factor' of any creature on earth.
