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.

From the Back Cover:

In the New York Times bestselling book Evidence of the Afterlife, radiation oncologist and near-death experience (NDE) expert Dr. Jeffrey Long gathered findings from the Near Death Experience Research Foundation (NDERF) that pointed toward a strong scientific case that there is life after death. Dr. Long has continued his groundbreaking research and has collected the largest near-death experience study in history for God and the Afterlife. Once again, the findings overwhelmingly point to the existence of an afterlife, but this time Dr. Long has another startling scientific conclusion: God exists, and there is amazing consistency in the reporting about what God is like.

God and the Afterlife expands upon Dr. Long's findings about the afterlife and is the first deep scientific exploration of those individuals who claim to have met God or spiritual beings. Dr. Long shares testimonials from near-death experiencers who meet God, venture into heavenly realms, reunite with deceased loved ones, and meet spiritual beings before returning to our world to report their journey. What he discovers is that these testimonials share unique similarities that provide overwhelming evidence that God is real.
