I consulted many online resources to prepare to write Spiritual Choices: Putting the HERE in Hereafter. Below I’ve listed Links to some of the more important online sources. A very broad and comprehensive site is: www.religioustolerance.org You could spend many productive hours exploring their numerous non-denominational articles and observe many thoughtful, spiritual/religious points of view.
I have also read fifty-five books to expand my spiritual consciousness and you might like to read some of the more important selections yourself. I’ve listed them on the Recommended Books page.
