About this title

From the Publisher

From the independent publisher that discovered the New York Times bestseller Where Angels Walk now comes the ultimate book about the afterlife, Evidence from Beyond. Hailed as "quite literally a Godsend" by Juliet Hollister, Founder of the Temple of Understanding, and as "convincing evidence of the seamlessness of life in the Hereafter," by the Right Reverend Bennett J. Sims, Bishop Emeritus, the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta, this inspiring book takes readers on an unforgettable journey through the unknown. Their guide is beloved Lutheran theologian the Reverend A.D. Mattson. Renowned as a pastor who lived by his faith, on earth he took very seriously the biblical injunction that we are our brother's keeper. He devoted his life to working with and for the downtrodden. His deep faith led to an interest in the paranormal, and he promised his daughter, Ruth, that if it was at all possible, he would communicate with her from the Beyond. Since 1971, he has been blazing new trails through the unknown, communicating through the distinguished British medium Margaret Flavell.

In Evidence from Beyond, Ruth shares A.D.'s most recent messages. In addition to vital revelations on karma and the soul's ascent, and to glorious descriptions of the realms of heaven, A.D. probes the eternal questions about good and evil, and life, death, and the hereafter that people have grappled with since the beginning of time. With love and compassion, he guides readers on a journey that brings an astonishing revelation at every turn. Its destination is hope and help for all mankind--and its end is a new beginning for every reader.

About the Author

While a post-graduate student at Yale, the Reverend A. D. Mattson, S.T.D., became interested in the scientific study of the paranormal that was being conducted there. It became a lifelong interest, and even led, after his death on earth, to his ability to deliver the messages in this book. Dr. Mattson taught for thirty-six years at the Augustana Theological Seminary (now the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago) and was Chairman of the Department of Christian Ethics. A.D. was always at the forefront in the struggle for civil rights, workers' rights, and social justice. Wherever greed, politics, and power threatened human well-being, A.D. would point to the Scriptures and voice God's condemnation. In his eulogy, the Reverend Allen C. Nelson spoke for all who knew A.D. when he said, "A.D. didn't preach the Gospel--he was the Gospel!"

As the daughter of Lutheran theologian A.D. Mattson, Ruth Mattson Taylor was nurtured in the Christian faith, yet taught to respect and learn from other religions and cultures too. A spectro-chemist, she earned her A.B. degree at Augustana College, and her Master of Science degree at Northwestern University. She lives in Maine, where she is active in both community and church projects. She is an academic member of the Academy of Religion and Psychical Research, and a member of Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship, the Spiritual Advisory Council, the Institute of Noetic Sciences, and the Association of Research and Enlightenment.

A born clairvoyant, Margaret Flavell is a graduate of the London School of Paranormal Psychology and Sanctuary of Healing. During World War II, she was commissioned by Lord Hugh Dowding, Marshal of the Royal Air Force, to use her unique abilities to trace missing RAF pilots. A Methodist by background, she is a deeply religious person. She has been a frequent leader at spiritual retreats both in the United Kingdom and the United States. There and in her own community, she helps others to deepen their faith and to become more God-centered. The Reverend Canon Berton S. Levering, Rector Emeritus of All Saints Episcopal Church in Detroit, considered Margaret "a brilliant translator of thought communication from the world of the departed. One feels her integrity of mind and deep sense of responsibility as she makes known the continuity of life."
