Heaven Is Not the Last Stop by Sheila Keene-Lund is the first book to attempt to reconcile the cutting edge of today's metaphysics, history, theology, and cosmology with the unprecedented teachings of The Urantia Book, a 2,097-page text claiming to be a planetary revelation. Keene-Lund addresses this formidable challenge in four sections: The first three address humanity's origin, history, and destiny; her fourth section builds upon the universal and inspiring worldview that results from her research, and offers readers an advanced framework for living a life of love and service.

My uncle, the renowned Ingo Swann, was a man of mystery and intrigue. As one of the US Government’s top psychic spies, he held secrets that few knew and even fewer understood. One day, he confided in me with a hushed tone and a glint in his eye: “We are not alone on this planet.” This wasn’t entirely new to me. I had encountered numerous inexplicable events, but I couldn’t believe they were actually real. It just seemed too impossible. Years later, however, my curiosity drove me to learn more. Amidst this learning adventure, I stumbled upon a declassified briefing from 1973 stating a group of Nazis was to blame for releasing an arcane terror upon the world. Unless one is deeply roo...

When we die our body remains behind on this planet, but where does the real us-soul, spirit, consciousness-go? Can something so vital one minute disappear into nothingness the next? Some say that we cannot know, that nobody has ever come back to tell us. But is this true? Many believe that angelic beings as well as "the dead" can transmit information to us telepathically via gifted human receivers, and many a...
