The inspiration for this book began on June 12, 2009. Laverne Stewart was at a women's retreat. At 5 a.m. she was alone in her room thinking about her frustration over various works of fiction which she hadn't been able to complete. She suddenly heard a voice say, "You have not been called to write fiction. You have been called to write the truth." She knew that there was no one else with her. It was then she realized she was supposed to write a book about angels and the afterlife.
As a journalist, with over 24 years of experience, she decided to do some research. Did she really hear what she thought she'd heard? She contacted two intuitive mediums who told her they had seen this book being written six months before she'd contacted them. Stewart didn't know anything about angels or the afterlife. The mediums told her not to worry about it because the angels had everything under control. They did. In the nine months that followed she was overwhelmed by the number of people who came to her to share their stories.
"I have met and interviewed dozens of people who have shared their angelic encounters as well as their experiences with the spirits of the deceased. I have interviewed spiritual mediums and people, like me, who don't claim to have any intuitive abilities but who have had encounters with the other side and with angels. I have spoken to people who received healing and encouragement from angelic encounters, those who say the spirits of their deceased children come to them as well as the adult children of elderly parents who said they heard, saw and felt angels in the minutes before their parents crossed over to the other side."
Angels and the Afterlife contains the many stories of people whose lives were saved by beings that others could not see. There are heartfelt stories from people whose lives have been changed forever by their encounters.
Laverne Stewart spent 11 years with CTV in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick before making the leap to print media in 1999. She currently writes for The Daily Gleaner in Fredericton. This is her first book.
