New Thinking AllowedAug 27, 2026

Religion professor Stafford Betty discusses his novel The Afterlife Therapist, a fictional journey through the afterlife built on decades of research into spirit communications received through mediums. He describes an astral world much like our own, where the newly dead take on youthful bodies, choose unpaid work, and grow spiritually, while earthbound spirits and self-made shadow realms trap those bound by addiction. The conversation ranges from rescuing Henry VIII from a 500-year imaginary kingdom to competing souls choosing reincarnation and saints visiting from higher heavens.
