My Descent into Death: And the Message of Love Which Brought Me Back

For years Howard Storm lived as a successful art professor and painter. Suddenly he was in excruciating pain and awaiting surgery in a hospital, realizing that death was a real possibility. As an atheist, he was convinced this would be the end. Instead, he found himself out of his body, staring back at his physical form. Drawn into fearsome realms of darkness and death, he experienced the terrible consequences of a life of selfish materialism. He also traveled to regions of light, where he conversed with angels. But the Lord of Light sent him back with a message of love. This is the story of a near-death, recovery, and transformation — of lessons from spiritual beings about the future, the meaning of life, life after death, the role of angels, and much more. Includes eight pages of illustrations.

Howard Storm was born in Newton, Massachusetts, USA in 1946, and was a professor of art for 20 years at Northern Kentucky University. In 1985, following his near death experience in Paris, his life was transformed. He eventually studied to become a pastor and in 1992 was ordained in the United Church of Christ. He now leads Zion United Church of Christ in Cincinnati, Ohio. He has communicated the message he received from his experience on numerous occasions to various groups and through the media.
