What do people see as death approaches? What will Heaven be like? What will Hell be like? An Army In Heaven records the deathbed visions of hospice patients, as well as those in a critical care setting who have died and then returned to describe their experience on the other side. Read about their accounts of Heaven and Hell, their visions of loved ones who have long traversed to the other side. Compassionate and compelling, this book retells their experiences. Their accounts are moving, edifying and sometimes disturbing, as cases of terrible abuse, neglect and even the demonic are also witnessed. Written by the nurse assigned to their care, An Army In Heaven is a compilation of their stories, what they saw on the other side and what they see as the veil thins during the dying process. It will change how you view life and most importantly, how you view death.

There is currently more scientific evidence to the reality of near death experience (NDE) than there is for how to effectively treat certain forms of cancer, states radiation oncologist Dr. Jeffrey Long is his groundbreaking new book Evidence of the Afterlife. In 1998 Dr. Long and his wife, Jody, began the Near Death Experience Research Foundation with the goal of creating a forum for near death experiencers to share their stories. Grounded in first-hand evidence culled from over 1,600 verified NDE accounts, Evidence of the Afterlife presents the strongest argument yet for the underlying truth of those who have died and returned to share their tales.

We are all going to die. But what happens after that is the big question. Many don't believe in life after death, or they wonder if there just might be something on the other side. This book is for them. It leads the reader gently and logically along a path of enquiry into this vital question, arguing from reason and experience. We can all have our opinions, but what awaits us after death does not depend on what we think is going to happen. There is reality out there. And, as this book shows, the reality is eminently positive and it fills us with hope.

John Flader's book is a must-read for those in any doubt about life after death. There are some sobering lines such as 'What happens after we die does not depend on what we personally think it is going to be'. The studies by my colleague, Dr Jeffrey Long, M.D., another radiation oncologist, on almost five thousand near death experiences, add a wealth of data. I will be recommending this book to my patients.

Those of us working in palliative care know how managing psychological and spiritual pain can often be far more challenging than managing physical pain. This is especially the case when our patients do not know what awaits them, if anything, after they die. I am convinced that Dying to Live - Reflections on Life After Death will be a big help to many, giving them comfort and filling them with hope and purpose in this difficult phase of their life.

Dying was not something Michael J. Hession, MD, had thought much about. In abstract terms, he understood its inevitability, but as a seasoned and healthy physician, mortality seemed distant. That all changed on December 31, 2013, when the abstract became a chilling reality. Faced with a near-death experience, Hession found himself grappling with profound questions: How does one recover from a near-death experience? What skills are needed to navigate such a harrowing ordeal?

In the wake of his near-death experience, Hession found himself overwhelmed by fear, confusion, and a sense of existential dread. Struggling to make sense of their newfound mortality, he started to slowly rebuild his body, both physically and emotionally, as well as searching for a new meaning for life, purpose, and happiness.

Although the events in the book occurred between December 31, 2013, through 2015, the inspiration to write this book came in January of 2020. His son was a senior resident in Medicine at Bellevue Hospital in New York City during the COVID-19 pandemic that was laying waste to the world. He felt hopeless and unable to help as he was recovering from elective hip replacement surgery. It was then that he realized that his personal story of survival and recovery could possibly help others. Drawing from his own life-changing experience, Michael J. Hession, MD, offers a unique perspective as both a survivor of near-death and a seasoned physician. With over three decades of caring for critically ill patients, Hession brings unparalleled expertise and empathy to his memoir, providing invaluable insights into the complexities of recovery and the human spirit.

By the end of this compelling memoir, you will emerge with a newfound sense of resilience, hope, and purpose. Through Hession's poignant storytelling and practical wisdom, readers gain the tools and perspective needed to navigate their own healing journeys and feel empowered to face adversity with courage and grace, armed with a deeper understanding of life's fragility.

Physician Heal Thyself resonates and helps guide both survivors of near-death and their loved ones through the agony of recovery and the Herculean task of rebuilding a life. Discover the power of the human spirit to overcome unimaginable challenges and emerge stronger than ever before while finding solace, guidance, and hope for the journey ahead.

While providing many remarkable accounts of near-death experiences (NDEs), Lessons from the Light is much more than an inspiring collection of NDEs. In clear language, the practical lessons for living and dying are to be found from the study of these experiences. Written by one of the foremost authorities on NDEs, Lessons from the Light is a book for those looking to gain knowledge and wisdom to enhance their own lives by incorporating the insights stemming from what many people have come to believe is the ultimate spiritual experience.

Although Lessons from the Light recounts many moving stories of NDEs, it is not just another book filled with inspiring testimonies--it includes helpful guidance and practical exercises concerning how readers can make use of this knowledge to live with greater self-insight, self-compassion and concern for others, as well as be better prepared for death, dying, and bereavement. Readers can easily apply what they have learned to their own lives and absorb and internalize these lessons from the Light in such a way as to lead to deep personal and spiritual transformation.

This edition replaces the previous edition (ISBN 978-1-930491-11-3) and contains a new postscript by the author.

Thousands, perhaps millions, of people have had near-death experiences (NDEs). Why do so many report uncannily similar experiences? What are they--a simple trick of the mind and body or something more? What are we to make of them, and do they tell us anything about the possibility of an afterlife?

An illuminating and thought-provoking journey into the enigmatic territory where science, spirituality, and human consciousness converge, Near Death Experiences: Afterlife Journeys and Revelations presents a comprehensive journey through different interpretations of NDEs:

The Scientific. What neuroscience, medicine, and biology have to say about what happens at the brink of death.

The Religious. What NDE-like experiences found in the Bible, the Tibetan Book of the Dead, the Talmud, the Quran, and other religious tracts tell us.

Historic and Personal. What folklore and personal stories reveal about this alternate consciousness that occurs during a life-threatening situation.

The Metaphysical. Possible answers involving quantum reality, parallel universes, and the subconscious.

Challenging you to explore all possibilities, Near Death Experiences will have you reconsidering your understanding of life, death, and consciousness!

A true story, this fascinating page-turner demystifies what happens after we die and will forever change your views about life, death and the hereafter.

Annie Kagan is not a medium or a psychic, she did not die and come back to life; in fact, when she was awakened by her deceased brother, she thought perhaps she had gone a little crazy

In The Afterlife of Billy Fingers: How My Bad-Boy Brother Proved to Me There's Life After Death, Kagan shares the extraordinary story of her after death communications (ADC) with her brother Billy, who began speaking to her just weeks after his unexpected death.

One of the most detailed and profound ADC's ever recorded, Kagan's book takes the reader beyond the near-death experience. Billy's vivid, real-time account of his on-going journey through the mysteries of death will change the way you think about life. Death and your place in the Universe.

In his foreword, Dr. Raymond Moody, author of Life after Life, explains the phenomena of walkers between the worlds, known to us since ancient times, and says that Dr. Kagan's thought-provoking account is an excellent example.

John Habib came back to the faith of his youth in young adulthood after reading an afterlife story handwritten by an Egyptian Christian monk. This book is the culmination of over fifteen years of research on a quest to arrive at what the Orthodox Christian understanding of the afterlife really is. After incorporating the guidance of several Orthodox scholars and theologians, this book gathers together a plethora of afterlife experiences of Orthodox Christians from all over the world, spanning 2,000 years of Christian history. The reader is taken on a journey from the moment of death to crossing over into the next existence, witnessing the afterlife through the eyes of others who beheld it and were able to tell us their stories. Each aspect of the afterlife presented in the book is grounded first on the Holy Bible, and then an array of early Christian writings is presented to provide a foundation upon which the reader may understand the experiences presented. The remarkable feature of this book, as one endorser put it, is that all the experiences are remarkably consistent.... Far from speculative-they suggest an underlying and almost overwhelming unity with both Scripture and the Church Fathers. This book delves into a treasure trove of Orthodox history to seek out answers to questions such as the following (and much more): - What is death and what does it feel like to die? - What will our spirits look like? - What will we see immediately after death? - What is the experience after death? Is it a journey, or do we directly find ourselves in some other place? - What is Hades like? Is it really a fiery torment? Is everyone punished the same? - What is Paradise like? How does it look? What does it feel like being there? - What happens to infants after they die? - Will we see God in heaven? Will we see the Father? The Son? The Holy Spirit? - What will we do in the afterlife? Will it be enjoyable?

If there is proof you have the innate power to change your life dramatically, and that when you die you are guaranteed to return to heaven no matter what you have done, would you want to hear it? Trial lawyer Nanci Danison returned from the dead with proof that we are far more powerful than we imagined. She gives us the tools we need to unleash that power, such as self-healing and consciously creating reality. BACKWARDS: RETURNING TO OUR SOURCE FOR ANSWERS relates the author's astounding intimate communications with God in the afterlife about life and death, eternal truths directly from God that are more reassuring than what religions teach. BACKWARDS summarizes the answers God gave her to the questions: What is God? What am I? What does God expect of me? What is the purpose of life? And more. In partial answer, God showed the author a review of Earth's history and future as well as suggested societal changes we can make to improve human life. She returned to share those answers.

What Dying Taught Me About Living

I was dead for 20 minutes...this is what I saw.

Most Watched Near Death Experience of All Time, with over 21 million views.

The glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud. (Exodus 16:10)

It was like the twinkling of an eye. Suddenly, I was standing in an open field of waist-high grass. It was unique in that the field didn't behave like a normal field of grass. It didn't blow with the wind. In fact, there was no wind to blow the grass, not even a breeze. Instead, it was as if each separate blade was its own entity with its own personality or soul that chose to flow toward me. I remember reaching my arms out to my sides, running my hands along the tops of the grass, and feeling something so special. It was like each gold-tipped blade was...full of love. I could feel the love coming from the grass.

While standing in the field, the guide who had taken me there admonished me to never look back. It was okay to look to the left and to the right, but I couldn't look back. The view in front of me was panoramic. I could see far to the left and far to the right, but the things in front of me were close as if I was standing inside a panoramic photograph.

On my far left were trees-giant pillars with huge trunks that seemed to lead me toward what was in front of me. There were no branches going up the trunk, but I could see lots of leaves at the top, beautiful leaves. They were in brilliant greens, reds, and yellows. Each leaf had a sort of iridescent gold underside. And the trunk wasn't the sort of dirty brown we see here either. It was a beautiful brown color edged in gold.

Between me and the forest were tall wildflowers. Normally, to see each bloom of a rose bush, you'd need to walk around it, but in this case, each colorful flower-and its leaves-faced toward me. The flowers came up to about my waist, and their faces followed me as I progressed through the field. I have never experienced love come from flowers, plants, or trees. But I felt like all of it was alive! Alive with love. And it gave me so much peace. It was like each individual living thing imparted energy charged with unconditional love, support, and encouragement.

Directly in front of me were clouds against a vibrant blue sky. When I saw bioluminescence for the first time, I felt it was the closest thing to what I saw. Then leading me up to the clouds was a sort of mist or fog, just like stairs leading to the stoop of a house. None of the clouds moved, as there wasn't any wind. Directly in front of me was a huge, beautiful cloud that was unique to the rest. Rays from behind the cloud shot toward me, just like the grass and flowers. The cloud itself was a pearly iridescent color that I can only describe as...pure and extremely bright.

In this place, there was no fear, no judgment, and no pain. Only love. Pure, unconditional love. My life before this was fraught with selfishness, greed, and a relentless drive for success in business.

What I learned most from my experience is to not look back. Don't look back at what you've done in your life. Take a good look at your life as it is today, right now. And start looking toward the future. We can change if we want to. If you want to make a difference, just be kind to somebody, be kind to a friend, a fellow worker, or a neighbor. Discover the reaction you get by being kind to them. Most people are very defensive, but there's something about love that calms people down. This life isn't about how much we make. It isn't about prestige or power.

It's about the One. It's about each life we can affect with love.

Not since Betty Eadie's Embraced by the Light has a personal account of a Near-Death Experience (NDE) been so utterly different from most others--or nearly as compelling.

This is a book you devour from cover to cover, and pass on to others. This is a book you will quote in your daily conversation. Storm was meant to write it and we were meant to read it. --from the foreword by Anne Rice

In the thirty years since Raymond Moody's Life After Life appeared, a familiar pattern of NDEs has emerged: suddenly floating over one's own body, usually in a hospital setting, then a sudden hurtling through a tunnel of light toward a presence of love. Not so in Howard Storm's case.

Storm, an avowed atheist, was awaiting emergency surgery when he realized that he was at death's door. Storm found himself out of his own body, looking down on the hospital room scene below. Next, rather than going toward the light, he found himself being torturously dragged to excruciating realms of darkness and death, where he was physically assaulted by monstrous beings of evil. His description of his pure terror and torture is unnerving in its utter originality and convincing detail.

Finally, drawn away from death and transported to the realm of heaven, Storm met angelic beings as well as the God of Creation. In this fascinating account, Storm tells of his life review, his conversation with God, even answers to age-old questions such as why the Holocaust was allowed to take place. Storm was sent back to his body with a new knowledge of the purpose of life here on earth. This book is his message of hope.
