We highly recommend Kenneth Ring's book Lessons from the Light to anyone interested in theology. After studying thousands of NDEs he writes:

"Everyone is loved infinitely, and with incredible compassion. There is a plan or, a kind of blueprint for everyone's life, and, while we each are free to embrace it or reject it, the Light is there to help us find it. If we can open ourselves to the Light and invoke it into our lives, we will, in time, be shown our way - and we will recognize it as ours unmistakable because it gives us joy. Joy in living is the truest sign that we are living right. What kills is judgment; what heals is love. The Light itself is only love, and it never judges; it gently nudges you toward your essential self. It wants you to realize that your core being is this light - it is not something external to you." See p.198.
