The Mediums' Book - A Milestone in Spirituality

MB
Celebrating 161 years on January 15th, The Mediums' Book is the first comprehensive treatise on spirit communication in history.

The second book in the Spiritist Codification, The Mediums' Book dives into the nature and processes of mediumship, the ability to act as an intermediary between the physical and spiritual realms, through a rational and structured approach.
The Mediums' Book is the book to read for those wishing to understand how mediumship happens -- and how to practice it safely.

You can download a free PDF version or find where to buy a paper or digital copy here.

Genesis - Re-evaluating Miracles and Predictions

Genesis, the final book of the Spiritist Codification, takes readers back to a re-evaluation of the genesis story, miracles, and predictions contained in the Bible through a rational spiritual lens built over the previous four books of the Spiritist Codification.

Genesis is a rich read for those wishing to build a deeper understanding of the spiritual science underpinning many of the events in the Bible.
