With all great leaders who find connection through life events and signs from the universe, Jacob Cooper demonstrates lessons learned when he encountered a near-death experience (NDE) as a child climbing a playground ladder. The result is a transformational guide that provides tenets and wisdom of each rung of the ladder, just like Jacob from the Bible. Upon applying these tenets, one can be reminded that they do not have to wait to get to heaven to see the light that is within themselves; the inner light is omnipresent. Follow Jacob's journey as he teaches lessons from his NDE, shares his wisdom from the hereafter, and rediscovers his own inner light, soul purpose, and how to be of service to others.
