Meet Father Nathan Castle, OP, Catholic Priest of the Dominican Order

Father Nathan Castle, O.P., is from Groves, Texas. Father Nathan received MA and MDiv degrees from the Dominican School of Philosophy and Theology at the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, California. He served in campus ministries at the University of California Riverside, Arizona State University, and Stanford, and is currently in residence at the University of Arizona. Father Nathan has chaired the Executive Board of the Catholic Campus Ministry Association (CCMA). 

Father Nathan Castle, O.P., has helped more than 600 “stuck” and not-so-stuck souls who died suddenly and traumatically to adjust to the afterlife. Victims of fires, automobile accidents, shootings, stabbings, drownings, and suicides come to him in his dreams seeking help to resolve their Interrupted Death Experiences. Father Nathan believes that providing such help is something the Holy Spirit has given him and his prayer partners to do. In his Afterlife, Interrupted: books, Father Nathan is quick to point out that not everyone who dies suddenly gets stuck. He is the author of “And Toto, Too: The Wizard of Oz as a Spiritual Adventure” and “Afterlife, Interrupted (Books 1 and 2): Helping Stuck Souls Cross Over.” His latest book: “Afterlife, Interrupted Book 3: Please Let Me Explain.”

"Afterlife, Interrupted Book Three: Please Let Me Explain" explores Interrupted Death Experiences and their impacts on our lives. Written by a Catholic priest, the book emphasizes the power of these life-altering examples to make us more conscious, connected, and loving. Fr. Nathan dispels misconceptions about deceased loved ones being stuck and provides support for those navigating grief, emphasizing the possibility of moving forward with peace. 

Book Three features a special section authored by Jimmy Akin, a senior Catholic apologist and internationally known author and speaker. You can find his podcast, Jimmy Akin’s Mysterious World, on standard podcast apps, at Mysterious.fm, and at YouTube.com/JimmyAkin.
