The Path of Freedom

This little book is a story about an accident...my own. When I was hit by a van while hitchhiking and rushed to the emergency room of the nearby hospital, I found myself suddenly at the portal of death. Since I did not die, but returned to good health, I am able to tell my story. I now dare to say that this interruption gave me a new knowledge of God. And so, more strongly than ever, I feel a need to write about it and simply present this knowledge that I cannot keep for myself alone.

I hope and pray that this glimpse beyond the mirror will bring comfort and hope to my brothers and sisters who are afraid to think of their approach death, or who think of it with fear and trembling." Henri J.M. Nouwen
