As an editor who reads countless books in the spirituality and New Age genres, I assign very few a permanent place in my personal library. Courageous Souls is one of those few. If you’re trying to put the puzzle together, this book will provide one piece – one very important piece – you don’t want to miss.

"Courageous Souls is eye opening in it's clarity. It answers many questions about the unique twists and turns of our lives . . . Robert Schwartz has written an important book."

"I was enthralled by Courageous Souls and thought it a fascinating and inspiring book. It took my understanding of pre-birth planning to a much deeper level."

"Robert Schwartz has finally given us what we have all been waiting for — solid corroboration of our long held suspicion that the circumstances of our lives are pre-planned and the outcomes of agreements made between souls prior to our incarnation. The benefit to me is that this makes Radical Forgiveness even more believable for people. Thank you Robert for your commitment to revealing the truth in a way that should convince all but the most skeptical."

"You can't read it and not have it change your life forever."

"After speaking at length with Robert . . . I found it easy to think of him not just as an author, but as a healer with pen in hand. His work is based in healing spiritual wisdom and is awe-inspiring. Read Courageous Souls. You will find yourself examining your life and finding meaning in the most unlikely places."

". . . the REAL reason why "bad things happen to good people" . . . it brings the clarity and peace which come from understanding the workings of the Universe."

"Robert Schwartz offers a clear rationale for life's difficulties and a way to appreciate and resolve them. Courageous Souls ranks among the best materials from Neale Donald Walsch and Esther and Jerry Hicks. It is simply one of the most important books I have ever read, and I can't recommend it highly enough."

"In Courageous Souls, Robert Schwartz elegantly achieves what is quite rare in the broad field of spiritual development/personal growth - with compassion, understanding, and clarity, he speaks to  the very root of what motivates and challenges us in our lifetimes. Read this book to gain clarity on the forces that may be underlying the design of your life path!"

"Whether or not you believe for a certainty that pre-birth planning is real, this book is so helpful in prompting the reader to see behind the obvious day-to-day reality of our lives. It asks you to ponder why the homeless man is sitting there in the cold, why the friend suffers with cancer. Shining through every page of this book is Robert Schwartz's warmth and caring -- and his courage to face the hardships in life and find meaning in them. Bravo to Robert Schwartz and to all the courageous souls who made this book possible!"

"This book is beautifully crafted: well written, well organized, interesting stories. It presents a very original, affirming life viewpoint. In fact, I would say it is the most all-encompassing positive viewpoint on suffering that I know of. This book may bring great comfort to those enduring great challenges, with its life-affirming messages of love, non-judgment, and spiritual growth."

". . . gently and beautifully - sometimes also startlingly - adds to our understanding of the agreements we make before we step into human form."

". . . a work of mercy . . . one will read through once and then return again and again to sample according to one's current position in life."

". . . my best friend and I for years have discussed how we believe that we do choose the events, both good and bad, that we experience in this lifetime. While I am still going to send my friend a copy of this book, there really is no need as I continued to call her and read her part after part! Still, one will be purchased for her as she will not be getting my copy . . . This is a remarkable, educating and enlightening read."

"My emotions throughout the book ranged from delight...to gratitude...to tears...to a sense of peace...to a knowingness...to absolute belief...to love.  Thank you for this book.

"...beautifully written, gentle, profound, heartfelt...Your observations and questions of what was being said by the guides and souls were so insightful and your questions dug deeper, I believe, than I've ever run across before...in another 100-200 years it will be in every home on the planet and a must read for every enlightened being."

“For those who are embarking upon a passage in their lives which challenges their ability to find goodness and rightness in what is happening, this book is a very helpful resource. Why do illnesses, accidents, death and other sources of suffering happen to us? Robert Schwartz’s Courageous Souls offers strength and resources in dealing with this question. Schwartz comes to the powerful conclusion that at a very deep level, love is who we really are. I think you will enjoy the journey upon which he takes you in coming to that conclusion!”

“In Courageous Souls, Robert shares an intimate and compassionate introduction to the awareness that we are part of a much larger plan of life and that we participate in both it's creation and expression through unconditional love.”

“There is a plethora of spiritual/New Age books on the market; however, Courageous Souls stands out as an excellent tool to help us understand why, before birth at a soul level, we agreed to experience the many painful challenges of this and other lifetimes. I am sure you will find that each of us has experienced one or more of the situations featured in this book either personally or through members of our family, friends or acquaintances. Courageous Souls will further validate the concept that we are not being punished by God, but are being given an opportunity to return to balance and harmony and our true state of Being as a divine cocreator on the Earth plane.”
