Endorsements for William's book, Dying for a Change
“In his book, Dying for a Change,
William has brilliantly captured that single thing that every great Sage seeks; the epiphany.
The reader is transported to a place where heretofore only the prophets have been. There you experience the wonder of human transformation as William reaches into his soul and somehow magically conjures the words that allow us all to feel the events that changed his life; that fateful moment when he stood at heavens door”.

ABOUT THE BOOK By William Murtha Dying for a Change is the gut-wrenching, inspirational true story of William Murtha’s fight to survive hypothermia and drowning in the freezing waters off the coast of Britain. It is a riveting story of survival that will captivate readers with a compelling, life-changing message about miracles and the power of choice. In 1999, William’s life was rapidly spiraling out of control when all meaning and purpose had vanished. While riding his bike along a channel one evening, William was swept out to sea by a twenty-foot freak wave and had a close brush with death. Only this wasn't any “ordinary” near-death experience. As his body finally began to shut down, and the excruciating pain subsided, William suddenly became acutely aware of a Presence close by. What followed, and the book vividly recounts, is the enlightening and heart-warming conversation he had with this Higher Presence. Caught someplace between this world and the next while struggling to stay alive, William “re-lived” many pivotal moments in his past and had every question he had ever asked about life answered with absolute blinding clarity. Dying for a Change will inspire readers to come face-to-face with their own deepest fears. It is a powerful, emotional story of hope with a profound message that many people in today's frantic, crisis-filled world will identify with in their own lives. This thought-provoking and insightful book challenges views on mortality, birth, life and God while inspiring readers to live more fully by questioning ideals and dogma that may no longer serve them. William used his horrendous ordeal as a catalyst for positive change. He eventually gave up the manic, fifteen-hour work-obsessed days and walked away from a materialistic and ego-driven lifestyle that almost killed him. After his “wake-up call,” William turned his whole life around, reconnected with his family and found his true purpose in life. In Dying for a Change, William clearly demonstrates how personal trauma can be used positively to become the inspiration for individual, social and global transformation. Readers will cheer at William’s “one in a billion” spine-tingling rescue that made headlines in the U.K., inspired a segment on a television documentary and has left audiences spellbound during his global speaking engagements. Dying for a Change is essentially an everyday, grounded and contemporary story of redemption, healing, forgiveness and new beginnings that will connect with readers of all ages and beliefs.
