Vassula Ryden, author of just released
Heaven is Real, But So Is Hell: An Eyewitness Account of What is to Come, was interviewed by Paul Arthur, host of INSIGHT TV Show, about the book and her mission to spread messages and prophecies brought her to her from God through prayer, visions and writings. INSIGHT is broadcast across Canada and is part of the Miracle Channel. As an Evangelical Christian program, normally skeptical of someone like Vassula, they were at first wary of having her as a guest. However, the audience response was so positive and effusive she was asked back for multiple appearances.
Heaven is Real is Ryden?s spiritual autobiography which chronicles her lifelong ability to tap into the supernatural and how, eventually, her Guardian Angel Daniel came to her with an assignment from God. What follows is a fascinating journey through an intense struggle as the forces of darkness sought to subvert the mission she was assigned to undertake.
Paul Arthur opened the first segment wondering about who God chooses to speak through or provide prophecies for followers and the world. After going through a number of aspects of this subject, he said ?our guest is somewhat controversial, she believes that she receives messages directly from Jesus through handwriting, which is a bit of different take on things for sure. We normally think of these things coming through orally.? The host then informed the audience that calls were welcome as he launched into his detailed interview of Vassula Ryden, author of the just released Heaven
is Real, But So Is Hell: An Eyewitness Account of What is to Come.

About Vassula Ryden:
Vassula Ryden, author of
Heaven is Real But So is Hell: An Eyewitness Account of What is to Come, is a Greek Orthodox Christian speaker and author who is known worldwide.
Born of Greek parents, Ryden grew up in Egypt, until her family moved to Switzerland when she was a teenager. Then in 1985, while she was living in Bangladesh, she had a spiritual encounter that changed her life, as well as many others. Ryden was working on a grocery list when she felt the presence of an angel. ?My hand was taken as if by an invisible hand, and I let it go because I felt he wanted me to write something,? she says.
At the time of the encounter, she had no relationship with God and hadn?t received any religious training. Soon after that encounter, God allowed Ryden to experience a painful purification process. After experiencing this dark and lonely time when she did not hear from God, she made the decision to fully surrender to Him and put God first in her life.
Since then, she has had thousands of similar experiences, transcribing ?messages? from God in a different style than her normal handwriting. The messages have been compiled in books, videos and other materials, which are promoted and distributed under the title, 'True Life in God' after Vassula was told by God in 1987, I have chosen you as a blank canvas to fill it up only with My Work which I will name: "True Life in God.?
Ryden also has what she calls ?interior visions? of heaven and the future and has foreseen three important events, which came to fruition:
? The destruction of the World Trade Center towers on September 11, 2001;
? The Indian Ocean tsunami in 2004; and
? The fall of Communism in the former Soviet Union.
But such ?doomsday? prophecies are not the focus of her ministry. God?s messages to Ryden emphasize His love and desire that all people have an intimate relationship with Him. They also stress the need for unity among Christian denominations.
Although she is Greek Orthodox, Ryden has a large Catholic following. She has cordial relations with many Vatican officials and presented a copy of True Life in God to Pope Benedict XVI in 2008. Ryden lives in Greece with her husband, but she is a frequent traveler, having spoken in 79 countries.
