Most Americans believe that an afterlife exists, but unfortunately mainstream religions teach a generic faith-based view of it and mainstream science ignores the topic altogether. So people are hungry for concrete facts about the afterlife, and afterlife-related books are perennial best-sellers. Just this year, HarperOne published
Evidence of the Afterlife: The Science of Near-Death Experiences by Jeffrey Long and Paul Perry, and Harper Collins published
Heaven: Our Enduring Fascination With the Afterlife by Lisa Miller, both to much acclaim. But neither book answers the basic questions: Where is heaven? What is it like? and How does it feel to die? Nor do any of the many books about the afterlife answer three more basic questions: How is a solid afterlife possible? Who will make it there and who won't? and What are the rules that we must follow to have the best chance of getting there?
The Fun of Dying offers detailed answers to all these questions and more in an easily read hundred pages. It also presents two study guides one brief, and one much more detailed so readers can follow the author in learning these eternal truths. It turns out that for most of us, death is the best time of our lives!
If you wonder whether death ends life, how it feels to die, or what heaven might be like, this book is for you. If you worry about a lost loved one or fret about the death of a pet, all the answers to your questions are here. And if you are afraid of death, if you worry that your life has no meaning, or if you have given up on religions, then let this book ease some of your fears while it brings new meaning to your life.
Nothing in The Fun of Dying is based on the teachings of any religion. Instead, it draws on more than a century s worth of evidence to explain how dying feels, how it happens, and most importantly what comes next. Accounts of near-death experiences are just a small part of the afterlife evidence! A lot of the best death-related evidence was produced in the first half of the 20th century, and it has been ignored ever since by mainstream science and mainstream religions. When it is put together with more recent discoveries, it tells a consistent and amazing story.
The Fun of Dying is a complete account of how dying feels and what comes next. Read it, learn the truth, and apply its lessons so you can enjoy your best life forevermore.
Roberta Grimes had an experience of light when she was eight years old that started her on what became an all-consuming hobby: she spent the next half-century researching the afterlife in an effort to better understand her experience. In the meantime she graduated from Smith College as a religion major and then from Boston University School of Law, and she began a small-business law practice. Happily married for 41 years, Roberta and her husband, Edward, have three grown children and four young grandchildren. After decades of afterlife research, Roberta eventually published The Fun of Dying - Find Out What Really Happens Next! (Greater Reality Publications, 2010), and in recent years she has traveled extensively to help people better understand that we are in fact eternal beings and we are infinitely loved. She has been writing fiction since the mid-seventies, when she wrote the first draft of Letter From Freedom. She jokes that it is easy to write a historical novel when you are in the middle of living that history! Roberta rewrote Letter From Freedom at least a dozen times as she taught herself to write, and she then published two novels, Almost Perfect (Berkley 1992) and My Thomas (Doubleday 1993, BOMC Alternate) before work and family intervened. With her children grown and her legal career moving toward part-time, Roberta is returning now to the Letters From Love series that she first began to think about more than thirty years ago. The first two novels in this series, Letter From Freedom and Letter From Money, were published by Wheatmark in March of 2014. Her six planned novels span almost five hundred years and tell four fresh and engaging love stories that are rooted in what the afterlife evidence tells us is true about human nature. They constitute a reconsideration of everything that we thought we knew about ourselves. The two characters that link the novels are a multi-billion-dollar American fortune and an island in the South Atlantic where a culture has developed that is in every way the opposite of modern American life. Based not in rules and restrictions but in freedom of mind, the Atlantican system fosters deep human unity and an extraordinary core-deep joy. Atlantica is a place where human life works as it never really has worked before, and it takes six novels and a lot of living for us to begin to understand why. To learn more visit RobertaGrimes.com
