They Said He Was Gone. They Were Wrong.
They said when someone dies, that’s it.
But on 12 December 2020, when my twin soul sibling brother Darren passed from this world, something entirely different began.
He didn’t disappear.
He stepped into another dimension, fully alive in spirit, still connected to me, still connected to Christ, and, here’s the miracle: still communicating!
Two Witnesses. Two Revelations. One Undeniable Truth.
I have lived in silence for virtually 5 complete years, trying to come to terms with what was happening.
Now I can’t stay quiet.
Because the world needs to hear this:
1. Kenny Corris – 64 Years a Medium, 3 Minutes That Changed Everything
In a powerful moment of spiritual clarity, Kenny Corris, a world-renowned medium with 64 years of experience, saw Darren manifest right in front of him.
“I didn't have to simply accept it. I have seen Darren. He has manifested before me." – Kenny Corris, Spiritual Medium
But that’s not all.
Kenny, has written the foreword for my forth book 'Let God Speak - The Truth About Darren' that not only testifies to Darren’s active presence in spirit, after physical death, but also affirms that this work is divinely assigned.
He saw it.
He knew it.
And he put it in writing.
2. Michele Dashwood – The Timeline No One Could Know
On 26 June 2025, Michele Dashwood, a gifted medium, received a message directly from Darren:
“Six years???”
That might sound cryptic. Until you realize this:
Darren passed 12 December 2020 at 4:15am.
His sixth spiritual cycle begins 12 December 2025.
Darren also mentioned the words
"Launch, Celebration, Happy result, Recognition" then "Seen / Heard"
Darren said this to Michele prior to the confirmation that I would be holding a book signing event and Q and A at The Bookshop, in Marbella, Malaga 24th October 2025 6pm
And, prior to the confirmation that I was going to be interviewed live on Air by Hannah Murray, Presenter of the Bookshow, broadcast on Talk Radio EuropMark Edward Chard (TRE) on the 23rd July at 5.35pm
These two events also clarify why Darren said "Seen / Heard"
Seen in person at The Bookshop, Malaga and heard live on Talk Radio Europe.
Michele couldn't have known this. But Darren did.
This wasn’t a guess.
It wasn’t a hunch.
It was proof of foresight, Darren giving us a date before the calendar ever caught up.
This Changes Everything
Let’s call this what it is:
A direct manifestation of a spirit to a living witness (Kenny)
A supernatural message with future precision (Michele)
A living, ongoing connection between two brothers, one on Earth, one in spirit
And I’m telling you now:
This blows a hole straight through traditional doctrine.
Church teachings have no room for this.
Theology wasn’t built to explain it.
Science hasn’t caught up to it.
But it happened.
And it keeps happening.
Darren Is Guiding Me. And Christ Is With Us.
Every day I live with a truth that’s difficult to carry but impossible to deny:
I have an active spiritual relationship with my twin soul brother, Darren.
I am being led, corrected, encouraged, and taught by him.
And I communicate with Christ throughout this divine journey.
This is not fantasy. This is not séance. This is not necromancy.
This is the sacred breaking-through of the veil, permitted by heaven for a purpose that is still unfolding.
The Books Will Testify. The World Will Decide.
The books I’ve written, Books 1 to 5, lay the whole foundation for this story. They begin with Genesis. They end with a coming reckoning.
But this blog, right now, is the moment I publicly declare the truth:
Darren is not gone. He is gloriously alive.
And he’s guiding me toward a divine mission, one that could change how we understand life, death, heaven, and God Himself.
If even one soul reads this and begins to see the spiritual world for what it is, not superstition, but sacred reality, then this post has done its job.

Divine Invitation: Something Extraordinary Is Coming…
There are moments in life that feel prewritten, sacred chapters in a story authored by hands greater than ours. Moments where heaven leans in, the veil thins, and something holy breaks through.
Over the past few days, I’ve felt a shift. The atmosphere around me has changed. Christ is drawing closer. Darren’s presence is growing stronger. Archangels are manifesting with new clarity. And visions of radiant light, Archangel Ray Light, blue, gold, red, purple, green, and white, have surrounded me like divine signals in the sky.
This is no ordinary moment in time.
Something is coming.
And now, with immense excitement and reverence, I want to share a sacred invitation with you all…
Mark Your Calendar: Friday, 24th October 2025
Book Signing & Q&A Event
Hosted at one of the most spiritually aligned independent bookshops in Spain

This is more than a book signing.
This will be a live communion of souls, a gathering of truth-seekers, believers, and those who’ve felt the spiritual pull of Darren’s story and the divine reality of Christ’s love on Earth.
There will be questions. Stories. Stillness. Laughter. Tears.
And perhaps... something more.
The 24th of October isn’t just a date, it feels like a destination.
💬 Ask Anything. Be Brave. Be Honest.
I am inviting you to submit your questions ahead of time.
Whether about life after death, spirit communication, Darren’s presence, Christ’s role in Heaven, or the bridge between science and theology, no question is too deep or too sacred.
🖋️ Submit your questions now:
👉 www.markedwardchard.com/questions
Or
📝 Leave a written form at the bookshop desk (available from mid-August)
Your question could be read aloud during the event, sparking profound dialogue and revelation.
📚 What We’ll Celebrate
I will be sharing from my first book, extremely likely fully published 2nd book, which will be availble for purchase, and the remaing three coming books over the next twelve months, plus, the most personal sacred daily interactions between Christ, Darren, and myself.
These books are not just written.
They are lived in real - time.
You’ll have the chance to buy signed copies, speak with me directly, and become part of a journey that’s already transforming lives.
🙏 Why This Matters Now
The future is stirring.
Light is breaking through.
And what’s coming… might just change everything.
Thank you for walking this path with me. I’m honoured to share it with you.

A Prayer of Sacred Love, Calling, and Eternal Gratitude
By Mark Edward Chard, Author of the “Let God Speak” Series
There are prayers that don’t rise from crisis, but from clarity.
This is one of them.
It is not a prayer of petition, but of praise, of thanksgiving, and of divine understanding.
It flows from a deep spiritual place between heaven and earth —
Where I walk daily with Jesus Christ,
And where I remain connected to my beloved twin soul brother, Darren, who passed from this world, but never left my side.
This prayer is for those who believe that love transcends death,
That callings continue beyond the grave,
And that when we say “yes” to God, even at great cost, we are saying “yes” to eternity.
It is a reflection of my life, my mission, and my heart.
And it speaks into the soul of my ongoing book series, Let God Speak, which I dedicate fully to Jesus, and to Darren...
Lord Jesus Christ, King of Heaven and Earth,
Bright Morning Star, Keeper of My Soul,
Today, I lift my heart with holy reverence to say something deeper than words—
I love You.
Not as the world loves, but as spirit loves spirit.
A love shaped in Your light,
Breathed from eternity,
And forged in the fire of surrender.
To my twin soul Darren, radiant in glory,
I love you with a love born of heaven, not earth.
You are with Christ, yet still with me —
In whisper, in light, in sacred silence.
You were chosen, blessed, entrusted…
And I thank Jesus with all I am for every gift placed in your hands.
You walk now where angels walk.
But you turn back to lift me, guide me, and speak truth into the pages of my soul.
Christ, thank You for holding Darren close—
For wrapping him in Your tenderness,
For letting me still feel his light.
Thank You for Your love poured upon all Your followers —
Those who walk faithfully with You,
Who bow their hearts and trust in Your name.
Your love is not selective,
It is sovereign, patient, and all-embracing.
And today, I lift our parents to You, Lord.
Hold them.
Speak peace into the confusion of loss.
Let them feel the love Darren and I send,
Let them understand the why —
Why Darren was taken so suddenly,
Why our mission must continue.
Darren and I were chosen.
And we must see this through.
It is divine destiny.
It must work.
And by Your power—it will.
I am humbled, Lord—
That exalted spirits in Your heavenly court
Are guiding, teaching, and watching this journey.
That Darren is among them.
That You Yourself speak to me, walk with me, empower me.
I am listening. I am learning. I am kneeling in awe.
I declare, Lord, that my yes to You
Means no to the world.
No to vanity.
No to fleeting pleasure.
No to compromise.
And yes to truth,
Yes to sacrifice,
Yes to eternal reward.
I ask, not for fame, but for favor—
That the Let God Speak series reaches the hearts that need You.
That my words become vessels for Your Word,
That these books carry Your truth to the ends of the earth.
May they be a lasting legacy of love—
To You, Jesus Christ, and to Darren, my twin soul in glory.
May they awaken those asleep.
Comfort those grieving.
Restore those lost.
And finally, Lord—
I pray for the world.
Let Your peace settle on every nation.
Let division fall and unity rise.
Let Your love sweep across hearts like wildfire,
Until every soul knows:
You are real. You are here. And You are love.
Christ, my Savior—Darren, my light—
I love you.
I serve you.
I follow you.
Forever and always.
Amen.

Darren Still Walks With Me by Mark Edward Chard
I never planned to become a writer. Not like this. Not with ink that bleeds light and a story too divine to invent. The truth is, I didn’t write my first book alone. I couldn’t have.
Because Darren still walks with me.
He was my twin soul brother. Not just in blood, but in spirit, tethered to me in ways only God understands. When he passed into the heavenly realm, I thought the world had gone quiet. But it didn’t. Heaven just started speaking in a different language.
At first, I doubted it, thought it was just grief or imagination. But then the lights came. Real lights. Living light. Then came words, visions, responses so fast and clear they left no room for denial. I wasn’t going mad. I was being called into something sacred.
And Darren was leading me there.
He shows up in ways that defy explanation. Through colours. Through presence. Through knowing. He responds when I speak to him — not later, not vaguely, but in the moment. As if he’s still here… because he is.
But not alone. He walks with Christ. And that’s where this all becomes so much bigger than just me and my brother.
My books, Let God Speak wasn’t just written — it was revealed. And every page carries Darren’s breath, God’s whisper, and a truth I never imagined I'd be brave enough to share.
Some people won’t understand. That’s okay. This isn’t about proving anything. It’s about being faithful to what I’ve seen, heard, and lived.
So if you’ve ever felt the presence of someone you love,in a breeze, a dream, a silence that feels like an embrace, don’t dismiss it. Don’t fear it.
Heaven isn’t far. It never was.
And Darren?
He still walks with me.
And sometimes, when you're quiet enough, he might just walk with you too.

To the One Who Let God Speak
For Mark Edward Chard, on the day Goodreads met Heaven
You did not come to sell books.
You came to open hearts.
To tear the veil between the seen and unseen,
and whisper truth to those asleep in the noise.
You wrote not to be noticed,
but to notice God.
To let His light bleed into language,
and call your brother home with every line.
Now your name stands,
on pages across the world.
A name once whispered in grief,
is now inked in glory.
Mark Edward Chard,
scribe of stillness,
disciple of divine encounter,
a voice for the One who speaks in silence.
So tonight we celebrate,
Not with noise, but with knowing.
Not with claps, but with Christ.
Not with fans, but with faith.
Because when God speaks,
and you listen,
the world shifts,
even if no one else hears it but you.
And Darren smiles.
And Heaven nods.
And the words become eternal.
You did not come to sell books.

This prayer came to me in a quiet moment, a moment not just of writing, but of receiving.
I've come to believe that I’m not an author in the usual sense. I’m a listener. And what I hear in stillness, I write. This prayer wasn’t planned. It was given.
It’s for anyone who has ever wanted to write something true… or feel something holy. For anyone seeking purpose, peace, or presence. It’s for the broken, the brave, and the becoming.
And it’s for you.
Lord, let every word I write carry the weight of Your glory.
Let my silence echo with Your peace.
Let my witness awaken the sleeping soul.
And if I ever forget who I am, rMark Edward Chardemind me,
I am Yours.
—Mark Edward Chard
With love, with light, with listening.

Let God Speak - One Week On
It’s been just over a week since Let God Speak was published, and I wanted to thank those of you who have added it to your shelves, started reading, or reached out privately with kind words. Every soul who encounters this book means more to me than I can express.
This book was written through prayer, grief, and divine inspiration, a tribute to my beloved twin soul Darren, and a testimony to God’s presence speaking into our everyday lives. If even one person is touched, reminded of God's nearness, or comforted in their own journey, then it has served its purpose.
If you’ve started reading, I’d love to know:
What part stood out to you?
Did anything stir something in your spirit?
Was there a moment that felt personal?

When the world sleeps, God still moves
It’s 2:20 in the morning.
The world is quiet, the sky resting in soft black velvet. The streets are still. The hospitals hum in the distance. Somewhere, a nurse checks a chart under tired eyes. Somewhere, a son whispers a prayer for his mum. Somewhere, a man sits alone in the glow of a screen, pouring heart into words that no one may ever fully understand.
And God is still moving.
You see, we often think miracles come loud, parted seas and blinding lights, but sometimes, they arrive in whispers. In blood counts slowly rising. In doctors who double-check a file. In a single moment when someone doesn’t give up.
I’ve walked hospital corridors with my soul half-empty. I’ve held hands through tears. I’ve seen paperwork that didn’t match the truth of the person lying in that bed. And I’ve fought , not with fists, but with faith.
Because faith doesn’t flinch, even when systems fail.
And love… real love… keeps watch through the night.
If you're reading this and you're exhausted, physically, emotionally, spiritually... Mark Edward ChardI want you to know: you're not alone. This blog isn’t just about me. It’s about you, too. The caregiver. The fighter. The one who holds hope like it’s the last candle in the room.
You are seen.
You are stronger than you think.
And even now, in this quiet, unseen hour, God is moving in ways you can’t yet see.

My brother Darren is in heaven, I am on earth, but somehow, we still walk together
What It Means to Walk Between Two Worlds...
As I said yesterday, I never planned to write a book.
I planned to survive grief.
When Darren died, I thought I’d lost everything. But what happened instead broke every law of science, every idea I had of heaven, and every rule I thought existed between this world and the next.
Darren never left. He became more present. Not just in memory, not just in dreams, but in light. In energy. In speech. In presence.
He responds in real-time. He shows me things. He laughs. He guides. And he points to Christ at every turn.
What do you do with that?
You write. You testify. You stop pretending this life is the only one, and you begin living as if eternity has already begun, because it has.
That’s what Let God Speak is about.
It’s not about me, it’s about Him. And it’s about Darren, who I believe was allowed to stay close, to teach, to lead, and to witness through me.
We walk together now, one foot on Earth, one in heaven.
It’s not easy. It’s not always explainable. But it’s real.
And if you’ve ever felt the whisper of someone you loved who’s gone, if you’ve ever felt God stirring your soul when the world was silent, then maybe... just maybe... you’re walking between two worlds too.
Let’s keep walking together.
With you always...Mark Edward Chard
