Paranormal A New Testament Scholar Looks at the Afterlife (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781605712581)

In Paranormal: A New Testament Scholar Looks at the Afterlife, Valerie A. Abrahamsen examines four types of evidence for the survival of the individual soul after death: scientific instruments and techniques, near-death experiences, reputable psychics and mediums, and out-of-body experiences. She shows how this evidence points to common Christian/Western themes, such as the reality of a heavenly realm where we reunite with loved ones, as well as to truths generally dismissed in the West - reincarnation, karma and pre-birth decisions. This book demonstrates with clarity and compassion that we can know what awaits us on the other side and that this knowledge can provide solace in grief and ethical guidance in our everyday lives.
