23 Minutes in Hell is a personal book written by Protestant Christian Bill Wiese and published in 2006.

[1] The book and the underlying story within it are the topic of a series of speaking tours given by Wiese, predominantly to Protestant churches and other Christian organizations.

[4] 23 Minutes in Hell spent at least three weeks on the extended New York Times Best Seller list for paperback nonfiction.

[6][7][8] Lawrence Yang, a columnist for the Filipino-American newspaper Asian Journal, devoted two columns to Wiese's book, treating it as an accurate description of hell.

"[11] The claims in Wiese's book have received sardonic reactions from some writers, both in the Christian and secular press.
