Journey to Enlightenment
by Tim Kushner
A true story of dying, returning, and awakening to divine purpose. Tunnel of Light: Journey to Enlightenment takes readers through Tim Kushner’s extraordinary near-death experiences and his transformation from silent endurance to spiritual surrender. A story of faith, love, and redemption — reminding us that Heaven is real, love never dies, and light always finds its way through the darkness.
Tunnel of Light: Journey to Enlightenment is the powerful and deeply personal testimony of Tim Kushner — a man who died three times and returned each time with a clearer understanding of God’s plan, the eternal nature of love, and the true meaning of faith.
Through vivid storytelling and heartfelt honesty, Tim invites readers into his extraordinary journey: from early loss and heartbreak to near-death experiences that opened his soul to Heaven’s light. Guided by divine encounters — including messages from his soulmate, Laura — Tim comes to understand that his survival was no coincidence, but a calling.
Each chapter illuminates a lesson from his spiritual awakening — walking in daily faith, confronting self-doubt, surrendering ego, embracing forgiveness, and learning to live as a messenger of hope. His journey reveals that strength is not found in silence, but in surrender; not in self-reliance, but in God’s grace.
Tunnel of Light is more than a memoir — it’s a message for anyone seeking meaning in suffering, light in darkness, and confirmation that God is always near. It reminds every reader that what we do on Earth echoes in eternity, and that even the hardest trials are preparing us for something divine.
Written with the collaboration of David Poulsen, Tim’s longtime friend and creative partner, this book stands as a testament to faith, purpose, and the boundless love of God.
Whether you are facing grief, searching for hope, or yearning to understand life beyond this world, Tunnel of Light: Journey to Enlightenment will stir your spirit, renew your faith, and remind you that you, too, know what to do — you always have.
“"He who is divine and wise, derives maturity from the absence of pride and ego. They shall teach those who are willing to listen"”
