5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, spiritually uplifting, March 20, 2006

This review is from: Get Us Out Of Here! Maria Simma speaks with Nicky Eltz (Paperback)

This book is amazing. I started reading this book out of curiosity; to find answers to common questions about "the other side." After a few pages, this book satisfied more than just my curiosity, it was a spiritual enrichment I was looking for. I was unable to put it down. I've bought this book for several people, and everyone who read it is amazed. Plus, this book contains the 12-year prayers that St. Brigitte of Sweden received, which contain so many graces.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Truth of Purgatory, May 18, 2007

By 

Melanie Cruz "Mary Michael" (Hazleton, PA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Get Us Out Of Here! Maria Simma speaks with Nicky Eltz (Paperback)

Excellent and theologically informing documented book. The humble pictures of Maria Simms lends upmost credibility to her stories. How many of us really take seriously Purgatory? How many of us ever get to actually speak to suffering souls on the "other side?" Here is one who did, did not necessarily want to, but was asked to by God and she said "yes," and did so until her death. Upon reading this book, it could only make one want to try harder to cooperate with God's holy will so as to get to Heaven and possibly sidestep Purgatory. God is Mercifull!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book on purgatory, July 13, 2008

This review is from: Get Us Out Of Here! Maria Simma speaks with Nicky Eltz (Paperback)

This is probably one of the best books on the subject of purgatory. It is very informative, staying truthful to the source and being spiritually satisfying while also appealing to one's intellectual curiosity. It should be noted that the bulk of the work is a documentary of conversations taped between a "seer" and a learned man (who holds a degree in architecture but with no formal journalism training) on the former's, Maria Simma's, many personal experiences with the Holy Souls. Contained also are some words of advice from both Simma, the Holy Souls she had conversed with, and Nicky Eltz the interviewer and author. The presentation is highly objective while boldly directs its reader to matters pertaining life after death for some of us that we better learn about before it is too late. The conversation was well planned and executed, broadly touching on many subjects that are relevant, such as the proper way to receive the communion, death, authenticity of some well publicized private revelations, the authority of the Pope, and many more. Included in the back of the book are some prayers (St. Briget's being one of them, and others for the Holy Souls), the author's (Nicky Eltz's) argument for receiving the holy communion on the tongue while kneeling. A good resource to deepen one's faith and to correct some of our misunderstandings about issues such as the purgatory, the liturgy, etc. for which sometimes we can find little authorative reference in the literature on. The further readings section includes works both for and against the author's views, and is a bit exhausting, which is worth all that it costs to procure the book in the first place. As expressed by another reviewer previously, this book will amaze you. I literally could not put the book down. Definitely worth the effort to buy. In essence, the book is purely spiritual nourishment, and is expected to be read and reread to gain the most from it (for private meditation and prayers, for example). Another point to note that is that the publishing of this title is related to the Medjugorje phenomenon, which is another avenue one should look into if serious about contemporary Catholicism.
