Doctor Gloria Polo was an orthodontist living in Colombia when she was struck by lightning and had a near death experience in which she was judged by Jesus and condemned for mortal sin. Fortunately, a very pious, humble farmer who saw a picture of her in the newspaper prayed for her soul and Jesus granted her a second chance, with a mission to repeat what she witnessed not only a thousand times, but a thousand times a thousand; and that when she comes back before Jesus to be judged again, she will be judged with greater severity, due to her second chance and all that she saw while over there.

This second edition – twenty-six years after Gloria Polo’s electrocution and ten years after the publication of the first edition edited by Flaviano Patrizi – is the only edition in the world supervised by Gloria Polo.
It is not a mere transcription of Gloria’s oral testimony, a transcription that would be inadequate to convey Gloria’s total communication, but it is a literary work that is extremely faithful to Gloria’s original narrative. The text, therefore, offers guarantees of authenticity and is suitable for conveying to the reader what in an oral testimony would escape the listener’s attention.
This second edition, which became necessary for the reasons given in the proem, contains many new unpublished narratives and explicates the many implicit contents present in Gloria’s oral testimony and in the first edition of it, explications that cast a new light on Gloria Polo’s experience and make it fully understood. The text is accompanied by notes and biblical references.
WHY READ GLORIA POLO’S TESTIMONY
- To feel the Christian proposal concrete and shining;
- to gain a deep sense of life;
- To have the certainty of eternal life;
- to overcome the fear of death;
- to learn to make a serious examination of conscience;
- to gain new impetus in facing the daily difficulties of life;
- to be spurred to love.
WARNING
Dr. Gloria Polo never wrote her testimony herself, but left it to the theologian Flaviano Patrizi-who has shared eleven years of mission with her so far-to draft a literary version of it and supervised its content. So all other texts that list Gloria Polo as the author are, in fact, mere transcriptions of Gloria’s limited and terse oral testimony.
