Home with God: In a Life That Never Ends

I read all three of the Conversations With God series and also A Friendship with God and I found them to be very comforting. I trust my intuition or inner guidance whenever reading a spiritually based book and if it does not resonate with me then I do not continue reading. These books for the most part did resonate with me. There were a few passages in the books where i thought Neale was just doing some creative writing based on his experiences , but overall they did feel like they were a conversation with God, The Universe, a higher power, our higher self...It does not matter how you want to describe it; it is al the same. I feel the author has given a great gift to the world with his experience and concept. We need to communicate with God in a real way that makes sense. God or The Tao is naturally loving and giving. It is in no need of worship or fear. This book of the entire series resonated with me the most. As I read the words it just made sense. I have read many books on the near death experience and life after death. I began exploring this concept when I was young after losing a close friend tragically and suddenly. I felt there has to be more to who we are and this experience then just what we feel with our senses. The ones we love just cannot vanish and be gone because a physical body stops working. That life force we love when we look into the eyes of someone we love feels so powerful. it would be naive and short sighted to think that inhabiting this body is all it is there for. When I read this book I felt like all my thoughts and questions about where we go next in our journey was answered. Some of it felt like very new concepts but much of it felt like a reminder, like I was remembering something that was deep inside of me. It gave me great comfort but not in a false way. I didn't feel that it was just a nice story and meant to give me comfort like so many theories have felt like. I really felt that this was the process. About a year after reading this I lost another friend and rereading this book gave me comfort again. My father has been grieving since the loss of my mother 8 years ago and I recently gave him my beat up and dog eared copy of this book to read. I was hesitant because he can be cynical and I was afraid he would try to discourage my beliefs. he had read other books and and even went to hear some lectures from people who had near death experiences and always felt disappointed. He always seemed to feel that they were either fakes or he was not getting what they were saying. He loved this book and felt it was speaking to him. He said he felt very peaceful while reading it and keeps it bu his chair every day to look at if he has the urge. I am going to give this book to every one I know. It will be a great tool and comfort if they are able to just stay open and let the message wash over them. It is a book full of good vibrations and loving thoughts. We are always home with God but don't realize it. Death gives us a larger perception that the physical closes us off from because we get so caught up in what is here. our heaven is right here and so is all the love we have experienced with everyone we ever knew alive or passed on. I urge everyone to give this book to yourself as a gift if you are at all curious about the subject, have lost someone close to you( you never lose them), or just enjoy the Conversations With God concept of living in this world. I hope it brings you more peace and Joy. I am so grateful the author has shared this with the world. Peace.

Out of 323 pages, am only at page 129 after having the book for over a month now. I have to "chew" it, close it and "think about what is being said", but the time element is of no concern to me as there is so much to learn from these teachings. Having been a Catholic for 32 years, I left the church much to the dismay of my relatives, especially because I was "depriving your children" (mine) of the one, true, catholic and apostolic faith. Because "I" could not believe in the teachings of the church, nothing my family could say produced guilt or the shame that I always felt in the Catholic church. After going to many other churches, from JW's to Pentecostals and all in between, I came to a conclusion. There is no "right" religion; in fact, organized religion causes much division and war! I had my own pre-conceived notion of who God is/was which brought me much peace, but I'd had no actual confirmation outside of myself to affirm what I believed. That is, until I got my hands on Conversations With God, and there it was finally! The saying that "when the student is ready, the teacher will come" was crystal clear to me in that moment! I could never conceive of a "loving" Father/Mother/Creator sending Its Child to a place of eternal damnation; could you as a parent, no matter what your child did, turn your back and say, "you are damned to burn forever!" Wow, I could not! I don't believe in hell, I think it exists right here on earth over many lifetimes, and that we come back as often as we'd like to learn from prior (you may call them "mistakes", I choose to call them "experiences") which we want to repair, grow from, therefore, spiritual evolution. Oh, my, yes....Reincarnation! Second chances! Who'da thought that a loving parent would give second, third, fourth, a million, etc. chances. Yes, the words in his books completely resonated with my soul and I felt more peace than I'd ever experienced before. Home With God shows the reality of a loving Parent while He explains scientific truths and universal laws about what happens when we pass over into the next plane, the ease of death compared to the horrible physical suffering of illness. Some may find this to be esoteric BS, but from young adulthood, I knew that I was being taught to believe what "others" felt safe in believing and teaching me, not actually what "was" or "might be". Call me a maverick, but Neale Donald Walsch's books have moved me to a higher spiritual plane and a perception of the great,wonderful, all-encompassing and unconditional love of the Creator and the Universe. If you are wondering what to believe, having doubts about your faith, just try reading one of these books, stick with it for a bit, read the sentences over again until you understand. You might find the peace you are looking for.

Books that deal with controversial topics often provoke reactions of opposite extremes. Just look at the number of 5 star reviews and 1 star reviews on this book. If you are looking for a sincere review on the book, I can tell you right now that most of the 1 star reviews are written by cynics, hard-core Christians, and (strangely) kids promoting a book by someone named Maddox. I especially love the review ironically entitled "Wake Up," because that is exactly what Neale Donald Walsch is trying to do. If you are one of these people, all I can say is that belief is not required - and this book is probably not for you. As someone who has read all the previous Conversations with God books, I honestly think "Home with God" is one of the best books in the series. It contains fascinating information about the process of life and death, and if you have read a lot of metaphysical works already the ideas are not exactly new. However it is definitely a new spin on old ideas, and the ways they are expressed in this book are intense, eloquent, and inspiring. As another reviewer pointed out, the Neale in this book reminds me of his voice in CWG 1-3, where he is for the most part asking questions to satisfy his own curiosity and thirst for knowledge rather than posing questions for "the skeptics". Like most other books in the series, there are great moments of revelation, inspiration, and humor, and each moment build on the next so that you're left with a sense of absolute wonder at the end of the book that is rather hard to explain in words. But don't take my word for it. Read it and find out for yourself.

absolutely amazing and eye opening... makes me a little less scared of death

As an interior designer I’ve had the privilege of working in many client homes. I’ve acted as a sounding board for just about every conversation imaginable including many people’s profound fear of death. How I wish they’d read this book. Through a question and answer method, the author explores the reasons for our lives and our deaths, what happens to us when we die, and why we would choose to experience life again, and again, and again. The book asserts there are no victims when viewed from a spiritual perspective. We are all one another’s angels. We are never judged—by anyone, and least of all God. There is such a place as the unmanifested reality of God where everything exists without form. We go there every night in deep sleep to reconnect and replenish with Source, and we enter this state once again when we die before going on to our next life choice. This hits home for me as I’ve had the profound experience of being in this unmanifested state of reality. I’ve also had nearly seventy people share their near-death experiences with me, not one of them afraid to die. I know death is not the end, only life transforming. This book is as close to explaining what I and others have experienced in a realm beyond our life on earth. I highly recommend this book because everyone is going to experience death. Our thoughts create our perception of reality. This is true after we die as well. It’s vital we help people through the dying process by ending their fear of it. The information in this book can help us embrace this transition peacefully.

Walsch's book Conversations With God Book 1 was the first time I'd read ANYTHING that lined up with the way I was taught spiritually and answered so many questions no religious leader would ever provide me with a straight answer to. Home With God: In a Life That Never Ends did the same thing with regard to life and what happens after we disembark from the Earth plane and put me at peace knowing that we never really die, we just move on to the afterlife when our soul's purpose here has been achieved. It made me lose the fear of the unknown on the other side. Home With God helped me understand the stages of passing on, that there is only love - no hate, we only go when our soul has experienced what it came here to experience, and that no matter what, God is ALWAYS with us. Free will is always in play throughout life and the after life. It is quite difficult to explain all of this, so if you feel like there's something more after you pass on or you perhaps need to know that there is nothing to fear, just read this book. I have read all of Walsch's books. They have made all the difference in the world with how I live my life and how I feel about leaving the Earth plane. Oh, and if you are reluctant because you think it might be just a bunch of new age BS, check that idea at the door. No crystal balls or tarot cards here.

This book is a genuine Gift from yourSELF to yourself. It's a remarkable journey through some of Life's most epic questions. Where did we come from? Why are we here? Where are we going? What will be there when we get there? It's a beautifully orchestrated tool of "rememberance." Your Soul will remember and resonate with its eternal Truths as it opens to them, like "a thousand pedaled lotus opening to the Core of ITS BEING; Our BEING." I truly agree with the concepts set forth in this book and when reading them for the first time. I had my own theories regarding most of these concepts but reading this was like having my own philosophical ideas being read to me but in a much more polished and refined way. I believe that there is Ultimate Reality, beyond the Space/Time continuum, and that when someone leaves their physical body, in `no time at all', the other will be there in re-Union. This is a quote from "Home with God" that I resonate with so perfectly: "Such is the wonder of the ultimate Reality that, though it may be experienced as a long while for those who remain living in physicality within the illusion of time, it will be in your own Moment of Now that you will be reunited." - Page 300 If you are reading these words, your Soul has invited you to read this book. Do it now. Accept the gift and then BE the Gift. BE the change you wish to see in the world. Love is truly all there really IS.

A friend gave me this book when my father passed away suddenly. I'd read much of Neale Donald Walsch's work, and loved it, but hadn't heard about this one. While I was at home back east with my family right after Dad left, I was reading it every night at bedtime, and actually feeling HAPPY for my Dad rather than SAD for us "losing" him. Neale's work puts everything in perspective for me, expands upon my intuition of the circular nature of life, and it makes SO much sense! I highly recommend this book for anyone grieving the loss of a loved one, OR openly searching for answers to the meaning of life. I now have a great sense of peace and acceptance surrounding death AND life...the peace that passeth understanding. This takes all I learned in Sunday School (Dad was a Methodist minister) to a WHOLE 'NOTHER LEVEL! One that works for me as an inquisitive soul searching adult, and takes NOTHING away from my traditional Christian upbringing. It just adds fresh perspective to what I was taught, and in my opinion, really resonates with the words of Jesus. It's like the next layer of understanding for me...now that I'm ready for it. Why wouldn't God keep speaking to us today, in these changing times of evolving intellect and heightened awareness? Thank you, Neale, for being the messenger practical hope and clarity.

Excellent book

I am speechless. The book is just amazing. I thought I would never come across again a book that excites you so much that you can’t stop. And then came God through Neale Donald Walsh. Thank you

Love this book

Uno de los libros más extraordinarios que he leído. Los mensajes directos al corazón, como si fuera a mi a quien estaban dirigidas las palabras!

A perspectiva que fornece a respeito de vida e morte, do que significa todo esse ciclo de vida e morte é incrível. Nunca tinha lido ou ouvido falar de algo tão magnífico, que trouxe muito sentido para a Vida, exatamente como ela é. Amei a nova perspectiva que ganhei sobre a vida.
