Warren took an overdose in a suicide attempt on May 7, 2007, resulting in him being placed on full life support in intensive care. During his near-death state, he left his body and saw his deceased father who motioned to him with his arms to go back, saying "it's not your time yet." Though his father didn't speak verbally, Warren understood everything he was thinking through a form of telepathic communication.

He then heard the voices of his wife and children crying, which triggered his return to his body like a rubber band snapping back. He woke up in the ICU on full life support. The experience included incredibly fast thoughts, time distortion, vivid senses, awareness of things elsewhere, seeing his father in a "very nice wooden land," encountering unearthly light, and feelings of happiness, relief, joy, and unity with the world. He experienced a life review and scenes from the future. His father served as a barrier preventing him from crossing over permanently. The experience led to religious changes in his life.

--- Biblical Summary ---
Biblical elements: The encounter with his deceased father serving as a guide aligns with biblical accounts of the deceased existing in the afterlife. The message that "it's not your time" reflects biblical concepts of appointed times (Ecclesiastes 3:1-2). The telepathic communication, unearthly light, life review, and profound peace correspond to biblical spiritual encounters. The barrier preventing crossing over suggests the boundary between life and death that only God controls.

Unbiblical elements: None identified. While suicide attempts are contrary to biblical teaching about the sanctity of life, the NDE itself contains standard elements compatible with biblical accounts. The father's role as messenger aligns with biblical instances of the deceased appearing with divine permission (like Samuel to Saul).
