Subtitled \u003cem\u003eMy Dream of Heaven\u003c\/em\u003e and At a time before popular discussion of and research into near death and after life experiences was in the popular consciousness, Rebecca Springer courageously and faithfully penned this account of her own passing \"into the light\u003cstrong\u003e. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArranged in chapters as a loose narrative, \u003cem\u003eIntra Muros\u003c\/em\u003e comprises a series of dreamlike episodes and reflections upon the essence of life, death and what comes next after we perish. Steeped in the Christian tradition, the author's narration discusses the spiritual planes that follow death, and her descriptions of heaven are evocative and reassuring.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The appearance of the heavenly realms, the blessings of the angelic spirits, and the journey the believer's souls render the author's words profound and evocative. The imagery is vast in scope, yet the emotional comfort she provides remains constant. For Christians who are bereaved through the harrowing experience of loss this comfort is especially welcome.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Rebecca Ruter Springer was a poet and author who published fictional stories and verses. Much-liked and gentle of nature, she suffered from infirmity of health for decades, and her condition was often infirm. This fragility occasioned her to contemplate death and the path the soul takes after the body expires; these reflections resulted in \u003cem\u003eIntra Muros\u003c\/em\u003e, which has been consulted by Christians ever since.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51367961526495,"sku":"9781684224357","price":8.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/JMSLqzrFtq9781684224357.webp?v=1789116974"},{"product_id":"intra-muros-paperback","title":"Intra Muros - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"It was a great joy to me that I could do so, little sister,\" he said gently. \"Shall we go now?\" and he drew me toward the window. I turned my head and looked back into the room that somehow I felt I was about to leave forever. It was in its usual good order: a cheery, pretty room. The attendant sat by the stove at the farther end, comfortably reading a newspaper; and on the bed, turned toward the window, lay a white, still form, with the shadow of a smile on the poor, worn face. My brother drew me gently, and I yielded, passing with him through the window, out on the veranda, and from thence, in some unaccountable way, down to the street. There I paused and said earnestly: \"I cannot leave Will and our dear boy.\" \"They are not here, dear, but hundreds of miles away,\" he answered.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51370449600735,"sku":"9781544633428","price":9.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/v95bu4xW5Z9781544633428.webp?v=1789161359"}],"url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/collections\/rebecca-ruter-springer.oembed","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
