Almost everyone at some point in their lives questions their faith and/or belief in God. Even the most learned religious scholars, ordained and lay readers and faith-based teachers admit to having doubt at times. The author wrestled with faith and a belief in God for many years but feels blessed to have experienced a series of life-changing events that opened his eyes, heart, and mind. Today he has absolutely no doubt in the existence of God and that there is an afterlife.
A Spiritual Journey to Unwavering Faith is a multi-denominational and multi-dimensional book written for every reader regardless of their religious backgrounds or spiritual beliefs. It details the writer's unique experiences, and the purpose in sharing his spiritual journey is to give those with doubt, a sense of comfort, peace, and hope. It also provides confirmation and inspiration to those who already have faith, and to hopefully strengthen their existing belief.
The author's spiritual journey began about a year before the passing of his father-in-law and continued to grow and become stronger with the passing of his father and mother. Each died in the author's arms and as they took their last breaths, he asked them to please give him a sign or do whatever they could to confirm the existence of God and the afterlife. Literally moments after they each passed and many times since, each communicated with the author and provided profound signs that were personal connections known only between themselves. Initially the author viewed these After Death Communication (ADC) signs as sheer coincidences, but after experiencing a series of unique, strange, unexplainable encounters the writer finally realized he was witnessing events that went beyond the obvious or what could be identified by using his five key senses. Once he accepted the possibly a higher power was at work, he allowed his eyes, heart, and mind to be opened to a whole new world or realm. He also discovered the incredible power of prayer.
During his research and the discovery process the author read many books that included historical mythology, afterlife experiences, spiritual enlightenment, faith, the Old and New Testaments of several different Bible translations, excerpts of the Koran, Divine interventions, and devotionals written by lay persons from around the world. He especially enjoyed reading devotionals from people of all walks of life who told their stories through essays that connected to specific scripture. Their personal experiences relating to selected scripture were genuine, insightful and deeply moving.
The author found it interesting how philosophies and life recommendations quoted in so many modern day spiritual and self-help books and materials are rooted in scripture. As the author connected his own personal events to specific scriptures, he realized everything he was searching for was already compiled in one comprehensive best-selling book of all time ... the Bible.
