As a member of a sixth-generation wine family in northern California, Rob Bundschu was just minding his own business - drinking like a fish, getting into trouble - when it dawned upon him one day (in his favorite bar) that he wasn't really having any fun. This was the first subtle push toward a spiritual journey that would eventually lead to an extraordinary experience of going to Heaven, Where he received a message he felt prompted to share with the world.


Raised on the grounds of the historic Gundlach Bundschu winery in Sonoma, Rob grew up tying vines to trellises, chainsawing tough manzanita shrubs, and otherwise preparing to become the farmer he sensed he'd never be. At 26, a wine-soaked run as the national sales manager for "Gun Bun" worked well enough, until a dramatic break with reality knocked him out of his everyday routine and changed his life forever. Eventually, a stint as a bookseller introduced Rob to a wealth of spiritual literature that included A Course in Miracles, the modern transformational teaching that would revolutionize his life. The startling story of how Rob Bundschu survived all the highs and lows of his life to return to the family business - now happily married and dedicated to a miraculous way of life - is a journey worth a toast, whatever your drink of choice.
