Publications and Videos:

John is an author of books that center on guidance from the psychic readings of Edgar Cayce. From 1985 - 1990, John served as a trustee on the national board for the A.R.E., Association for Research and Enlightenment, in Virginia Beach, VA. He has studied the Edgar Cayce readings for most of his life and is one of the main presenters on the YouTube channel Edgar Cayce Arizona.

His earlier publications, (God in a Chat Room, 2001), (The Price of Prosperity, 2003), and (Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled, 2012), are best described as self-help books illustrating many principles given in the Edgar Cayce Readings for achieving our highest spiritual potential.

Fictional Novels:

In 2015, Through the Valley of Death was published as a fictional novel. It is the first book in a trilogy that centers on finding the three mystical chambers, which Cayce's psychic readings referred to as the Hall of Records. The second book in the series, In the Presence of My Enemies, was published in 2018. The final book of the story, Beside the Still Water, was not released under its own cover. Instead, all three books were combined together in 2020 as The Hall of Records Trilogy.

As of this date, John is preparing to publish a prequel to The Hall of Records Trilogy entitled The Gates of Arcturus. The book explores the background behind many of the major characters in the trilogy going back to before the beginning of time. A brief description of John's latest book comes from Sidney D. Kirkpatrick, best-selling author of Edgar Cayce, An American Prophet:

"Give them free will? What could go wrong?" In answering these two questions, author John Schroeder takes us on the ultimate cosmic journey, a multidimensional thrill ride through time and space back to a primordial existence when souls shape-shifted and the war was begun between the Children of the Light and the Sons of Darkness. Dare I mention the incredible cast of demi-Gods, heroes, and heathens, from Adam and Eve to Enoch and Queen Nefertiti? This is a history of our universe told through the eyes of angels, mystics, and a higher intelligence that created it. Most of all this is a book of stories, inspired by the Edgar Cayce readings, that reveal the deeper truths and universal laws that govern our supernatural selves.
