The Unseen Realm

By: Dr. Michael S. Heiser

Narrated by: Gordon Greenhill

In The Unseen Realm, Dr. Michael Heiser examines the ancient context of scripture, explaining how its supernatural worldview can help us grow in our understanding of God. He illuminates intriguing and amazing passages of the Bible that have been hiding in plain sight. You'll find yourself engaged in an enthusiastic pursuit of the truth, resulting in a new appreciation for God's word.

• Why wasn't Eve surprised when the serpent spoke to her?
• How did descendants of the Nephilim survive the flood?
• Why did Jacob fuse Yahweh and his angel together in his prayer?
• Who are the assembly of divine beings that God presides over?
• In what way do those beings participate in God's decisions?
• Why do Peter and Jude promote belief in imprisoned spirits?
• Why does Paul describe evil spirits in terms of geographical rulership?
• Who are the glorious ones that even angels dare not rebuke?

After listening to this book, you may never read your Bible the same way again.

There is a world referred to in the scripture that is quite unseen, but also quite present and active. Michael Heiser's The Unseen Realm seeks to unmask this world. Heiser shows how important it is to understand this world and appreciate how its contribution helps to make sense of scripture. The book is clear and well done, treating many ideas and themes that often go unseen themselves. With this book, such themes will no longer be neglected, so listen to it and discover a new realm for reflection about what scripture teaches.

Heiser provide so much insight

I'm a pastor, author, and an avid reader but it's rare that I would consider reading a book twice after having processed it. This is a book that I will absolutely listen to again. I would recommend that you get either a printed or kindlel copy of this book as well because there's a lot of things ayou re going to want to take note of if you are listening.(keep your highlight already)

Don’t Read Only Once

This book has opened up Holy Scripture for me like shining a bright light in a dark room. I thought I knew how to feel my way along in the dark. I was wrong. I’ve read my Bible probably fifty times as it is my joy. Now I’m reading again ‘for the first time’ after reading this book several times. I wish I could have thanked Dr. Heiser before he died for this blessing.

Absolutely life changing!

I have never read the entire Bible from cover to cover. I've always done studies of the stories, principles, etc. Now I can't wait to read it straight through and use this view as the lens. Dr Heiser's writing and delivery to the everyday person is just what every Christian needs. He also reaches the "critical thinkers" and people whom have simply stopped going to church or talking to God due to lack of information and or tired of cookie cutter sermons on information and perspective that are largely regurgitated again and again. EVERY PASTOR needs to read this book :)

need to re listen 3 times i guess

it was informational ocerload that i feel i need to revisit. at times chapters seemed disconnected more than i could follow. still amazing book, just more challenging to listen to. it almost requires full attention, dont count on this to be you daily commute listen.

Something to think about

It is hard to follow and steady unless you are truly looking for knowledge but it has great information and is a wonderful book if you are looking for a deeper relationship with God
