Wrestling with God

About the Book

WRESTLING WITH GOD is a trilogy of three mystical dramas, exploring the bewildering conditions that are imposed upon those who travel in eternity, from life to life. It examines the consequences of those who have committed suicide, murder, and other misdemeanors, and attempts to depict the sometimes playful or impenetrable attitudes of higher powers toward humans. The dramas are meant to be given together, as three very different variations on a similar theme.
