Based on the personal insights and memories of highly acclaimed medium James Van Praagh, <i>Talking to Heaven</i> offers comforting and startling stories about his contact with the deceased. Van Praagh could have used this text to prove that his gifts as a medium are authentic--the story about the deceased teenager who led his parents to his murderer is impressive (the result was a murder conviction)--but instead, Van Praagh offers spiritual and psychological comfort to those grappling with the loss of a loved one. He also helps readers develop their own means of talking to heaven. Even those who aren't aching for contact with the deceased will find Van Praagh's down-to-earth discussions of karma, the afterlife, and spiritual guides fascinating. 69072 1997 Talking to Heaven: A Medium's Message of Life After Death total:205|5:70|4:67|3:56|2:11|1:1| 205 809 258 30 5 0 false false Mon Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 1997 Fri Sep 07 03:16:17 -0700 2007 Fri Sep 07 03:23:55 -0700 2007 more...]]> 3 0 false false Thu Aug 27 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat May 30 17:04:05 -0700 2009 Fri Aug 28 06:30:12 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Thu Aug 20 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Apr 10 10:49:30 -0700 2009 Fri Aug 21 06:47:27 -0700 2009 1 more...]]> 5 0 false false Wed Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Nov 15 06:53:23 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 15 06:55:33 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Thu Jan 08 19:38:33 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 08 19:40:25 -0800 2009
I was 15 when I read it and for some reason it made an impression on me. It helped to calm some of my fears and confusion about death.]]> 3 0 false false Tue Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Nov 16 05:14:03 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 16 05:16:54 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Tue Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2006 Fri Jan 16 22:06:46 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 16 22:07:34 -0800 2009 2 5 0 false false Thu Feb 26 05:45:47 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 26 05:47:50 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Thu Jan 29 12:25:05 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 29 12:25:36 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Fri May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue May 26 07:55:37 -0700 2009 Tue May 26 07:56:08 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Tue Jan 29 10:18:11 -0800 2008 Tue Jan 29 10:19:21 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Fri Aug 15 18:49:44 -0700 2008 Fri Aug 15 18:53:47 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2000 Sat Feb 09 07:17:42 -0800 2008 Sat Feb 09 07:22:05 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Sun Apr 22 13:17:40 -0700 2007 Sun Apr 22 13:18:55 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Tue Jun 10 13:11:24 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 10 13:20:47 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Thu Apr 24 09:06:34 -0700 2008 Thu Apr 24 09:07:50 -0700 2008 2 0 false false Fri Aug 03 22:58:31 -0700 2007 Fri Aug 03 22:59:04 -0700 2007 0 0 false false Mon Sep 21 08:18:13 -0700 2009 Sat Nov 14 03:39:00 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Thu Dec 13 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Sun Mar 02 07:28:47 -0800 2008 Sun Mar 02 07:29:47 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Fri Aug 31 07:46:17 -0700 2007 Fri Aug 31 07:51:21 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=71321
