A saúde suplementar e a previdência privada integram o Sistema de Seguridade Social. Todavia, no âmbito das Entidades Fechadas de Previdência Privada (EFPP), a relação entre essas atividades foi a...

#1 New York Times bestseller with more than 11 million copies sold! When 4-year-old Colton Burpo emerges from life-saving surgery with remarkable stories of his visit to heaven, his family doesn’t know what to believe.
