What does the Bible say about dreams? Does God actually speak to us through them? How can they become a source of spiritual insight into life?Morton T. Kelsey, well-known for his writings that connect psychology and religion, puts the meaning of dreams into perspective and helps the reader discover again the richness of the Christian tradition. In this revised and expanded edition, he summarizes new findings in dream research and provides an updated bibliography. A substantial appendix of additional material and an index give further assistance to readers. In his overview of the history of the interpretation of dreams, the author traces the development of Judeo-Christian attitudes about dreams from Old and New Testament times, through the period of the Enlightenment, to the present. Citing Scripture and the views of such diverse writers as St. Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Plato, Freud, and Jung, Kelsey sets down some practical suggestions for Christians today who wish to understand and learn from their dreams and appreciate the richness of the images and symbols they contain.

"This is a book about what really happens after we die by one of today's major religious writers. Professor Kelsey in this successor to his best-selling The Other Side of Silence responds to the question: What ever happened to the Christian belief in a life after death? After showing that many Christians no longer believe in an afterlife because they no longer believe in the spiritual world, Kelsey goes on to demonstrate the reality of the afterlife and its implications for our daily living. The author discusses the role of mysticism and meditation, drawing on his experiences with the dying and his teaching of pre-medical students at Notre Dame, classical spirituality, Jungian psychology and the findings of parapsychology as ways to help his readers deepen their faith."--back cover.
