Publisher's summary

Dr. Raymond Moody revolutionized the way we think about death with his first book, Life After Life, first-hand accounts from people who clinically died and then returned to life. Their experiences of going through a tunnel and encountering angelic beings confirmed life after death for millions of listeners and readers. Since the publication of Life After Life, thousands of people contact Dr. Moody each year to share the unexpected things they felt, saw and heard when they were close to death...or when someone dear to them passed away.

As a result of this steady stream of material, Dr. Moody uncovered another common thread to what happens when we die. Glimpses of Eternity tells us that family and friends are often swept into the firsts moments of their loved one's journey from this life to the next. Dr. Moody calls these "shared death experiences." Glimpses of Eternity is the first book to talk about this beautiful aspect of our spiritual connections with one another. Entire families gathered for a loved one's passing all see a bright light from an unknown source. Some witness a gentle mist rising from an unknown source. Others tell of accompanying a family member halfway to heaven. A woman recounts experiencing a film-like review of her spouse's life and learning things she could never have known otherwise.

The stories in Glimpses of Eternity are at once surprising and soothing. They offer comfort and hope, and shed new light on the mysterious journey we take at life's end.

Best book on the subject ever!

Raymond is a gift to us all to give us a glimpse into the afterlife. He has devoted his life to listening to others tell their stories of experiences with those leaving this world, and generously sharing them and his ideas with us along with his personal experiences. I don’t know what part Paul Perry plays in this book, but whatever it is I am sure it’s helped to forward this book to us and I’m grateful. Thank you Raymond and Paul.

The narrator was awful

I have been through several Moody works and am a stout believer in his work. Unfortunately this book’s narrator was so grating that I could not make it through more than a couple chapters, even after trying numerous times. I eventually removed it from my device and will likely have to buy the book. Bummer to have wasted a credit on it. Buy the book but listen to a preview before spending a credit.

Excellent in every way

In this work, the topic of shared near death experience has been well researched by Dr. Raymond Moody and provides a sound basis for belief in the existence of a loving Creator who cares for all persons both now and in the realms of light. It speaks words of comfort and inspiration to persons of all faiths and none. I would especially recommend it to those who are grieving a loved one or who are seriously ill.
I found the voice of the reader enjoyable to listen to and easy to understand

I really don't like this narrator.

The stories are compelling and well written. However the narrator borders on cheesy. His performance detracts from the gravity of the subject matter.

A remarkable explanation of the shared death experience. 🥰

I liked the first person hood of it. Made it more real for me to hear Dr Moody speak.

Unable to listen to the narrator

Dr. Moody’s other books have fantastic narrators, but the tone and tempo here is intolerable. I will buy the hardcover.

good read

good read that is well formated, but needs a different narrator for a stronger delivery.
