Press Release
Based on the Globe and Mail and #1 New York Times bestselling book of the same name, Heaven is For Real brings to the screen the true story of a small-town father who must find the courage and conviction to share his son’s extraordinary, life-changing experience with the world.
The film stars Academy Award® nominee and Emmy® award winning actor Greg Kinnear as Todd Burpo and co-stars Kelly Reilly as Sonja Burpo, the real-life couple whose son Colton (newcomer Connor Corum) claims to have visited Heaven during a near death experience. Colton recounts the details of his amazing journey with childlike innocence and speaks matter-of-factly about things that happened before his birth... things he couldn't possibly know. Todd and his family are then challenged to examine the meaning from this remarkable event.
'Heaven Is For Real' will be released in select Cineplex theatres across Canada on Easter Weekend, beginning Wednesday, April 16, 2014.

There is also a series of sermon resources for the 4 weeks leading up to Easter here.
