Beneath the Phoenix Door

When his Near-Death Experience turns a seminary professor in a life-changing direction, he and a loving companion get recruited to uncover the myths and realities of the Garden of Eden. Could the Garden become a refuge for a chosen few during the earth's decline, or is it a monitor and mirror for the good and evil we are living through today?

Jacob Alexandre and Maggie Colburn confront the personifications of good and evil in this novel built on visions from actual NDEs.

Rev. Dr. Lee Witting is the host of NDE Radio, which he produces on behalf of IANDS, the International Association for Near-Death Studies. He earned his doctorate in NDE Studies from Bangor Theological Seminary, and served for fifteen years as Chaplain at Eastern Maine Medical Center. There he personally interviewed hundreds of NDErs, and worked with others who recounted other forms of personal mystical events, including Shared-Death Experiences, prophesy, and After-Death Communications. This novel recounts a story inspired by real NDEs, and what they tell us about our role in the creation.
