We read, hear, and consume more information than generations before us would’ve ever thought possible. We can hear any voice we desire to hear instantly. Why is there such a struggle to hear from God? Does the God who created the universe still speak to us today? And if so, why can’t we hear what He’s saying? He still speaks, and He’s provided everything we need to learn to hear Him.

Savannah Writes is a collection of short stories, novel excerpts, and essays by 13 members of the Savannah Writers Group. Each story is as unique as its author.
In the beginning, God spoke, and creation raced to life. Since the beginning of time, His words have been the substance that holds the very fabric of life together. God's Word is true, powerful, and eternal. His instruction is the perfect standard. Sin entered God's creation through Satan twisting and bringing confusion to what God's voice has instructed. Satan's lies brought deception among people who walked in the perfection of Eden with God. That same deception is prevalent in believers today. Modern Christianity has become defined by catchy, easy-to-share, and easy-to-remember phrases and ideas that are accepted as true. But do these ideas even line up with God's Word? Do you really know who told you that?

Savannah Henninger is not the author's real name, but the book is a real account of her spiritual opening and eventual connection to guides and beings of other dimensions through channeling. It became clear to Dr. Henninger that she was experiencing a spiritual unfolding that was the true purpose of her current life on Earth. Beginning with an out-of-body experience and moving to a near-death experience and the spontaneous recall of her past lives, Dr. Henninger now understands her true purpose has only just begun. The sources she has contacted outside our current demission explain that the Earth is transitioning to a higher dimension; as this shift occurs, everyone will experience greater spiritual connection to the source of our creator, whom some call God. As we go through this transition, entities from other dimensions--whom some call extraterrestrials--will assist us to make this transition. There are some entities who fear humans are not ready to join the rest of the universe as conscious partners in cocreation and have thwarted our efforts to advance. Her sources reveal that, despite their interference, the Earth will transition, and nothing can stop the changes that are already in progress. Her guides explain we are all on the path we should be on and provides glimpses into what our immediate future may look like. If we become telepathic and in touch with other dimensions, what would our society be like? What would the future human body be like, and what sensory experiences would it be capable of? This book answers those questions and more.
