Embraced by the Light

On the night of November 19, 1973, following surgery, thirty-one-year-old wife and mother Betty J. Eadie died.... This is her extraordinary story of the events that followed, her astonishing proof of life after physical death. She saw more, perhaps than any other person has seen before and shares her almost photographic recollections of the remarkable details. Compelling, inspiring, and infinitely reassuring, her vivid account gives us a glimpse of the peace and unconditional love that awaits us all. More important, Betty's journey offers a simple message that can transform our lives today, showing us our purpose and guiding us to live the way we were meant to -- joyously, abundantly, and with love.

Betty J. Eadie is the mother of eight children and celebrated forty-eight years of marriage to her husband, Joe, before his passing in 2011. The seventh of ten children, she was born in Valentine, Nebraska, and was raised on the Rosebud Indian Reservation and in Rapid City, South Dakota. Her mother was Lakota Sioux and her father Scots-Irish. Embraced by the Light was her first book. She is also the author of The Awakening Heart, The Ripple Effect, and Embraced by the Light: Prayers and Devotions.
