Each of us has at some time sensed the world beyond mortal life by the sweeping pass of the thin veil that separates the two. When we sit beside a bed of a dying loved one, watching him bid farewell to all that is so familiar, we can feel the reality of his new birth and the joy of reunion with those who have waited for him beyond. In those moments when the veil is so real to us that we almost feel it has touched our cheek as it stretches over one we love, we realize that we have been taught more than we can say. We feel a nearness to our Father, a peaceful serenity that is too deep for words.
The popular published works on this subject, Return From Tomorrow and Life After Life have had a profound impact throughout the world, but do not even begin to touch on the wealth of knowledge we have access to in latter-day revelation. After an exhaustive and prayerful study of the topic, the authors have gathered an in-depth collection of experiences from interviews with Latter-day Saints, published and unpublished works that shed light on the world beyond. The overall intent is one of spiritual upliftment rather than clinical accuracy.
The Journey Beyond Life covers what most of the world knows about the next life…then carries us one step further…with additional knowledge of our eternal self and family relationships that will strengthen our love for our Savior, erase fear of death in the reality of the other side and increase our commitment to live a better life.
