Publisher's summary

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 best-selling book Evidence of the Afterlife, Dr. Jefferey 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 reviews of their lives - 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 and meeting God and have returned to share their journeys. Groundbreaking and profound, it provides new insight into the human experience and expands our notions of mortality, offering possibility, hope, and comfort.

Life Changing

Excellent research into the afterlife and God.
More contrast between the readers would have helped.

Interesting but a bit light

Would you listen to God and the Afterlife again? Why?

Probably not. It was interesting enough to listen to – NDE subject matter is fascinating almost without exception – but I felt this book didn't really contain any substantial insights that I would not have previously thought. Hence, I'm unlikely to re-listen to this book, although I would recommend this to anyone interested in NDEs.

What other book might you compare God and the Afterlife to and why?

This very much felt like the part II to Jeffrey Long's first book, Evidence of Afterlife, and indeed, this very much is the part II.

What does Walter Dixon bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Clean performance.. it was appropriate for this book; an annoying reader can destroy an otherwise good book. But since this book didn't really have "characters", there was only so much a reader could do.

Both Fascinating and Reassuring

I really appreciated the beautiful stories that people shared so vulnerably. The overall organization of the book was well thought out and had a beautiful flow.

very interesting concepts

easy to listen to, non judgmental, very easy to understand. God is love. I really grasps the concept that we every living thing from plants to humans are interconnected by energy. it's easy to get lost in your spiritual journey listening to these near death experiences really helps you get back on your path.

Profound!

My thanks to all the people that shared their NDE experiences, and to Dr. Long, Paul Perry and all who were involved in bringing to us the wisdom imparted within the NDEs.

I found the scientific and impartial approach taken to analyze the NDE accounts both respected those that shared their NDEs, and provided undisputable evidence for the validity of NDEs.

The core truths from the NDE accounts of life after physical death, a loving non-judgmental God, that we are one with All That Is and that our purpose on Earth is to embody Love is so profound that I hope that everyone will get a chance to both hear it and to chose to internalize it within their lives.

Great book. It opened my eyes to several ideas,

I never considered that God may be religiously agnostic. I will have to learn more of NDERF.
