Dr. William S. Sadler professed that a group of celestial beings started to keep up a correspondence to him through a sleeping man in Chicago from 1911 until 1923. He and his wife, Lena Sadler, both well-known and highly respected local physicians, claimed there were “probably 250 night sessions,” all the way through which these celestials spoke through their patient. The identity of the patient was once never revealed. From 1924-1934, the Sadlers held a Forum in their home to study the voluminous notes and to compose questions for the celestial beings about human origins and destiny. The result was once The Urantia Book, which claims to be the fifth epochal revelation to humankind. Published in 1955, it has sold over 750,000 copies by word of mouth. Even if translated into 17 languages, quite few people know about it or the amazing story of its creation. The History Of The Urantia Book explores the professional lives and non secular pursuits of the Sadlers and the ordinary role that Dr. Sadler played in bringing this 2,097-page tome to the world. It compares the “origin story” with the scholarly discovery of relevant facts and circumstances that led to its publication. It also sheds new light at the fiercely safe identity of the “patient” and likely scribe for these revelations.
