About this audiobook

Arthur Conan Doyle draws parallels between the practices of the early Christian church and those found in modern spiritualism in this bold and thoughtful essay. Arguing that both traditions embrace communication with the divine and the afterlife, Doyle presents a spiritual lineage that connects ancient faith with contemporary belief. It's a unique theological perspective that attempts to bridge doctrine and psychic experience.
