Synopsis

Based on the largest near-death experience study in history, involving 3,000 people from diverse backgrounds and religious traditions, including nonbelievers, God and the Afterlife presents startling evidence that a Supreme Being exists—and there is amazing consistency about what he is like.In his bestselling book Evidence of the Afterlife, Dr. Jeffrey Long showed us that there is a strong scientific case for life after death. Now, he goes further, revealing evidence that God is real. At the Near Death Experience Research Foundation, Dr. Long studied the stories of thousands of people who have journeyed to the afterlife. Though there are a wide variety of differences in how people experience NDEs—some see a bright light, others go through a tunnel, still others experience a review of their life—he discovered that many of the accounts shared a remarkably similar description of God; a Supreme Being who radiated love and grace.Expanding on his analysis begun in Evidence of the Afterlife, God and the Afterlife is the first intensive exploration of the people who have reported going to the frontier of heaven, met God, and have returned to share their journey. Groundbreaking and profound, it provides new insight into the human experience and expands our notions of mortality, offering possibility, hope, and comfort.

As I age and attend more funerals, this genre makes me feel positive and hopeful. So many people recount such similar stories that it is hard to question their validity. Besides, what harm is there in believing? Atheists have had like experiences during their near death experiences, so it appears th......more

Goodreads review by Emily on August 22, 2016

Disclaimer: these 5 stars are purely based on the fact that the ideas of this book changed me and came into my life at a time I needed it most. With that said, this book is nowhere near perfect. Some things about the writing almost drove me mad, but it was the message of the book that made it so grea......more

Goodreads review by Iona on April 06, 2018

This is an excellent book about NDEs and, specifically, descriptions of encounters with God during these. I haven’t read any other NDE books with this particular focus. The God Study was the largest study of God in NDEs ever conducted. The book quotes directly many of the NDErs included in the enquiry.......more

Goodreads review by Amy on September 02, 2016

Going to read it again. I totally believe in NDE's and OBE's, there are just too many to discount the theory. Especially children's NDE's or OBE's. When a child as young as 3 years of age with no religious upbringing (church/Sunday school) can report what was going on, and who was where, and what th......more
