The Testimony of Someone Special



Hi. My name is Brad Bush. My mom set up this web page to help me.

(This is me. Of course Mom had to choose a picture of me sticking out my tongue. Silly Mom.)

To understand my story, I need to share some history. I was a normal kid like everyone else until the age of 10. Then, in July 1995, I was in a car accident and was hurt badly. I stopped breathing long enough to cause brain damage. 

I spent two weeks in a coma. When I woke up, I couldn't move anything by myself except my eyes. I spent months in rehab, but came back home and went back to school. I can do some things by myself, but I can't talk because I have damage to the nerves that control talking. This is why I asked my mom to put up this page. Chances are, you came to this page because Mom put a QR code on my tray. This gives me a chance to tell you some things that I can’t easily do in person.

I love, love, LOVE talking about Jesus. Why? Because when I was in my coma, I went to heaven and saw Him. My story hasn't changed since I first told Mom. 

Jesus  took me to heaven so I could see how wonderful and amazing it is. I got to see a lot of people. But Jesus also took me to see hell (years later, in a dream) so I could understand just how bad it is. And let me tell you--hell is the worst possible thing and you can't imagine how bad it is.

I want to tell everyone about this so they will understand this, and I want everyone to go to heaven. How do you get to heaven? You just need to believe that Jesus is God’s son and He died so you could live. You have to trust him to make all your decisions and recognize that He is in charge, not you. 

It’s easy to say, but it’s hard to live out. I don’t get to do everything I want because of my brain injury, but I know that Jesus is always in charge. And knowing Jesus is better than anything else. I know I will be able to walk, talk, and run again once I get to stay in heaven. And I want as many people to come with me as possible.
