The author says, "I'm just an ordinary human being whose
curiousity about human existence beyond death led me to
extraordinary experience. . . . If there is any difference between
you and me it is only that my curiousity has already led me to
exlore and know what lies beyond death in the Afterlife."
This fascinating volume recounts the story of some of his
voyages past the edge of life, using techniques learned at The
Monroe Institute. Moen describes for the reader how to access this
knowledge for themselves and to learn what the Afterlife really
is.

Saint of the Later Days Positive Confession Movement of a New Era
The Theology of Liberation What does the Bible Say? 'There is way
that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death, '
Solomon wrote in Proverbs 14:12. Today it is necessary to have a
simple and strong biblical manual, like the one that the author
offers to the evangelical world. This manual satisfies two needs:
to identify false doctrines so we can stay strong in the truth, and
to love and direct those that are lost in the darkness to the
light, Jesus Christ

2018 Edgar Award Finalist—Best Fact Crime “A thoroughly
readable, thoroughly chilling account of a brilliant con man and
his all-too vulnerable prey” (The Boston Globe)—the definitive
story of preacher Jim Jones, who was responsible for the Jonestown
Massacre, the largest murder-suicide in American history, by the
New York Times bestselling author of Manson. In the 1950s, a young
Indianapolis minister named Jim Jones preached a curious blend of
the gospel and Marxism. His congregation was racially mixed, and he
was a leader in the early civil rights movement. Eventually, Jones
moved his church, Peoples Temple, to northern California, where he
got involved in electoral politics and became a prominent Bay Area
leader. But underneath the surface lurked a terrible darkness. In
this riveting narrative, Jeff Guinn examines Jones’s life, from
his early days as an idealistic minister to a secret life of
extramarital affairs, drug use, and fraudulent faith healing,
before the fateful decision to move almost a thousand of his
followers to a settlement in the jungles of Guyana in South
America. Guinn provides stunning new details of the events leading
to the fatal day in November, 1978 when more than nine hundred
people died—including almost three hundred infants and
children—after being ordered to swallow a cyanide-laced drink.
Guinn examined thousands of pages of FBI files on the case,
including material released during the course of his research. He
traveled to Jones’s Indiana hometown, where he spoke to people
never previously interviewed, and uncovered fresh information from
Jonestown survivors. He even visited the Jonestown site with the
same pilot who flew there the day that Congressman Leo Ryan was
murdered on Jones’s orders. The Road to Jonestown is “the most
complete picture to date of this tragic saga, and of the man who
engineered it…The result is a disturbing portrait of evil—and a
compassionate memorial to those taken in by Jones’s malign
charisma” (San Francisco Chronicle).
"A masterful piece of reporting . . . Reitman tells a spellbinding
story of a larger-than-life personality whose quirks, ticks and
charisma shaped America's newest homegrown religious movement." --"
Washington Post"
Scientology is known for its celebrity believers and its team of
"volunteer ministers" at disaster sites such as the World Trade
Center; its notably aggressive response to criticism or its attacks
on psychiatry; its requirement that believers pay as much as
hundreds of thousands of dollars to reach the highest levels of
salvation. But for all its notoriety, Scientology has remained
America's least understood new religion, even as it has been one of
its most successful.
Now Janet Reitman tells its riveting full story in the first
objective modern history of Scientology, at last revealing the
astonishing truth about life within the controversial religion for
its members and ex-members. Based on five years of research,
confidential documents, and extensive interviews with current and
former Scientologists, this is an utterly compelling work of
nonfiction and the defining work on an elusive faith.
"A meticulously researched history and revealing expose, a
frightening portrait of a religion that many find not just
controversial, but dangerous." -- "Boston Globe "
"This book is fearless." -- "Wall Street Journal "
