Messages From the Open Door: Narrated Experiences of Life After Death

The messages in this book, recorded in the early 1900s, were provided to Margaret Scott Houts by those who died and then found themselves even more alive and well in a similar but more perfect spiritual world. They then desired to help those left behind to understand what happens after death. Knowing that the spiritual world is real and wonderful can lessen fear and grief. Seeing the interrelationship between the two worlds illustrates that this earthly life is merely a preparation for eternal life. This can provide comfort as we come to view our challenges and tragedies with renewed meaning and purpose as part of our progression to a purer reality. (Originally published in 1912 as Voices From the Open Door, then in 1962 as Messages From Beyond.)
