Saved by the Light: The True Story of a Man Who Died Twice and the Profound Revelations He Received
by
by
An interesting account of Dannion Brinkley's near-death experience. Well-written and profoundly thought provoking.
From back cover:
"On September 17, 1975, after being electrocuted by a bolt of lightning, Dannion Brinkley died. When he revived twenty eight minutes later in a morgue, he had the story of a lifetime to tell-a profoundly moving account of what happened to him during his near-death experience.
It is a tale of a dark tunnel, a crystal city and a cathedral of knowledge where thirteen angels shared with him 117 revelations about the future-95 of which have already come true. Even though he now possessed the ability to read minds, no one believed his story of the spiritual transformation that changed his life-except others who had died and come back. A second near-death experience reunited him with his angelic instructors. This time, they revealed that he was to use his new psychic gifts to help the dying. Since then, he has dedicated his life to working with the sick and elderly and sharing his fantastic story with people everywhere."
