About The Book
God Said It’s Not Your Time by Chad Klosterman is a poignant and inspiring memoir that chronicles the extraordinary journey of Chad and his wife, Emily, as they navigate the challenges of near-death experiences and the transformative power of faith. In 2000, Chad survived a devastating ATV accident that left him near death and caused him to lose everything he had known. Despite the overwhelming hardship, this traumatic experience set the stage for a series of life-changing events. Just three years later, he met Emily, and their marriage in 2003 marked the beginning of a new chapter filled with hope and renewal.
The couple’s path to parenthood was not an easy one. After being told they would never be able to have children, Chad and Emily’s lives took a miraculous turn when they welcomed their son, Keegan, into the world in 2005. Keegan’s birth, considered a miracle by the couple, was a beautiful affirmation of God’s plan and grace. Yet, just a few years later, their world was shaken again when Emily faced a life-threatening medical crisis in 2008—a ruptured colon that nearly claimed her life. These separate near-death experiences tested their faith, but ultimately brought them closer together and deepened their connection to God.
Through these trials, Chad and Emily’s relationship grew stronger, and their faith was solidified. Their story, told in God Said It’s Not Your Time, serves as a powerful reminder that life’s greatest challenges can lead to profound personal growth and spiritual renewal. Their experiences not only made them better parents and partners but also brought them closer to their faith in ways they never could have anticipated. This book is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the unwavering belief that, even in the darkest moments, God’s plan for us is always at work.
