I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” - Revelation 21: 2-4 (NIV) John's website for ALL links and books: https://imagineheaven.net/ Link for John Burke's new podcast on YouTube: / @johnburkeimagineheaven Link for itunes Imagine Heaven Podcast with John Burke: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/imagine-heaven-podcast-with-john-burke/id1784735801 Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/johnburkeofficial

" I think we're going to get to the other side and we're going to see all the ways that we didn't know that God used something. It's going to bring us to our knees to see how amazing our Jesus is, what He does, and how He longs to include us in what He's doing. How great it is to get to be part of that! And that's the greatest thing in life when God lets you be part of something He's doing. I don't think there's anything else that brings more joy and excitement. It's so, so awesome. I think that's what we're designed for. That's why it's so fulfilling, right? Ephesians 2:10 says we are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works, which He prepared in advance for us to do. God can move in big ways when we step out in obedience!" - Tim Ainley, CEO Forward Edge Matthew 25:40 New Living Translation (NLT) “And the King will say, 'I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!'" History of Forward Edge MInistries: For the first 22 years of our history, Forward Edge was primarily a short-term missions agency engaged in a wide range of ministry activities. In 2005, following Hurricane Katrina in the Gulf Coast, we transitioned into a full-fledged relief and development organization with ongoing field programs directed by local leaders in some of the world’s poorest countries. The majority of our short-term missionaries now serve in locations where we have ongoing children’s programs, including Cuba, Haiti, Ghana, Kenya, Kosovo, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Uganda. This unique history has positioned us to not only understand what it takes to engage in effective, cross-cultural development, but also provide meaningful mission opportunities that strategically support ongoing programs in the field and contribute towards lasting change. We invite you to be part of God’s unique work through Forward Edge!

"Everyone's got a shark in their story. People often want to make the story about the shark. The truth is, it's not the size of the shark that really matters. It's the strength of your Savior, and that's what our story is. It's not a shark story. It's a little boy who had big faith in an even greater God. Face your fear by faith. The key of faith always unlocks the door of fear. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom." - Jameson Reeder Sr.
The Reeder family's testimony is such a powerful reminder that even the most fearsome challenges can be faced and conquered with God. Thank you, Reeder family, for allowing me to share your miracle testimony!

Closing prayer and blessing by John Burke:
We have a LIVING HOPE in Jesus - 1 Peter 1:3-9 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, 5 who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. 7 These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. 8 Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, 9 for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

In 1989, 10-year-old Joshua Dennis went missing in Utah's Hidden Treasure Mine. Despite a massive five-day manhunt, Joshua remained unfound, trapped in the dark, cavernous mine without food, water or light. All hope may have been lost had it not been for angelic protection and guidance. In this episode I get to meet Joshua Dennis and Garrett Batty, the man who has written and directed the movie based on this miracle. Joshua and Garrett share a bit about the journey getting the testimony on the big screen, a few of the highlights and what they hope viewers will take from the film. Did Joshua suffer with injuries after the incident? He did share with me (after our recording) that he suffered from frostbite on his toes and feet briefly and there was talk about possible amputation, but praise God his feet were healed and he does not suffer long term effects. John Skinner (a major role in the film) is still alive to see this event captured on screen. Apparently he is even more shy than Joshua, but this warmed my heart to know he is able to celebrate with everyone who lived through this event.

Prayer to fight fear and encouragement to walk by faith and not by sight Scripture related to this episode: Romans 8:11 NIV "And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you." The Bible verse "your young men will see visions" appears: Joel 2:28 "And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions" Acts 2:17 "In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people; your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams" John 16:7-15 But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment about sin, because people do not believe in me; about righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer; and about judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned. “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you. All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.” Song that Dave heard in his experience: https://youtu.be/GKxMRFcLlww?si=21DbCw486PoLzjme More info on shallow water blackouts and how to avoid it: https://underwaterhypoxicblackout.org/how-it-happens

"I just want you to know, God loves you. God has you in the palm of his hand. You may be fighting a battle right now, but don't believe those 'never' lies. Don't believe the never lies that I'm never going to get well. I'm never going to overcome this. Just keep persevering, keep trusting God, keep doing everything that you know to keep your head up. Keep your head up looking at God and trusting in Him and exercising your faith and feeding your faith every day. And you are going to get your breakthrough miracle in Jesus name. God doesn't want to withhold it from you. He wants to give it to you, but sometimes he's doing a work in us before he does a work for us. And that's why God didn't do everything instantly because sometimes he's trying to grow our spiritual muscles and, and develop us and grow us up." - Steve Austin "I am the Lord who heals you." -Exodus 15:26 "These signs will follow those who believe: In my name...they will lay hands on the sick and they will recover." -Mark 16:17-18 (Words of Jesus) Steve's website for new devotional BE HEALED with pre-order perks!: https://www.pastorsteveaustin.com/ Where to find more on the Living Hope Chaplaincy: https://livinghopechaplaincy.com/home Steve's email: steveaustin700@hotmail.com Steve's wonderful book GOD HEALS with declarations, prayers, and so much more: https://a.co/d/5JLaFI5 Ramiro's American Idol miracle share and singing Amazing Grace: https://youtu.be/gpoobGy9Ph4?si=Ru3yzclmZ1koy4Bc

He was also guest on my podcast who is passionate about empowering others in their healing journey. Many have been interested in what type of medications were used in Lynne's treatment. She had chemo: 8 months of fulfirinox, 8 months of gemcitabine (Gemzar). The clinical trial of immunotherapy was a combination of nivolumab, ipilimumab, and cobimetinib. A few of Lynne's favorite verses for her fight: 2 Thessalonians 3:3 "But the Lord is faithful and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one." Lamentations 3:22-23 "Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. God loves you. He pours out extravagant grace to you every single day."
God created you in His own image. You are His beloved child and He has incredible plans in store for your future. God wants the very best for you and His vision for your life will always be immeasurably more than you could ever ask, dream, or imagine. Jesus makes life meaningful, but He also makes death meaningful. He saves us from life vanity and gives us a hope beyond the grave!

That there is nothing, absolutely nothing, that can separate you from the love of God that he is in complete control.

"I just want you to know, God loves you. God has you in the palm of his hand. You may be fighting a battle right now, but don't believe those never lies. Don't believe the never lies that I'm never going to get well. I'm never going to overcome this. Just keep persevering, keep trusting God, keep doing everything that you know to keep your head up. Keep your head up looking at God and trusting in Him and exercising your faith and feeding your faith every day. And you are going to get your breakthrough miracle in Jesus name. God doesn't want to withhold it from you. He wants to give it to you, but sometimes he's doing a work in us before he does a work for us. And that's why God didn't do everything instantly because sometimes he's trying to grow our spiritual muscles and, and develop us and grow us up." - Steve Austin I am the Lord who heals you. -Exodus 15:26 "These signs will follow those who believe: In my name...they will lay hands on the sick and they will recover." -Mark 16:17-18 (Words of Jesus) Steve's website: https://www.pastorsteveaustin.com/ Where to find more on the Living Hope Chaplaincy: https://livinghopechaplaincy.com/home Steve's email: steveaustin700@hotmail.com Steve's wonderful book with declarations, prayers, and so much more: https://a.co/d/5JLaFI5
When James Harrison left the comforts of his home to join relief efforts in East Africa, his eyes were opened.

Over the last decade, Open Eyes has connected donors to the world’s most difficult places, where Open Eyes Mobile Messengers™ are delivering the Gospel to unreached and underserved people every day.

Millions of people across six continents have reported a personal near death experience. Do these accounts prove the existence of a loving God? John Burke was an engineer and an agnostic. As his dad was dying of cancer someone gifted his family with Raymond Moody's book "Life After Life." John read it in one sitting at his father's bedside. It sparked the thought, "Could this be real? Could there be an after life? A God?" This led him to read the Bible, where he found undeniable evidence in the scriptures and Bible prophecy about the existence of a real and loving God. He left his career to become a pastor and dedicated his life to ministry. Over the last 35 plus years John has grown in his faith and also studied over 1,000 near death experiences. His award winning book Imagine Heaven was written in hopes of highlighting scripture that is correlating to what experiencers collectively and around the globe are reporting in their testimonies. Imagine Heaven is now available in over 22 languages and the global response to it has been more than John could have ever anticipated. God has led him to write a new book, but this time John is writing about what these experiences, when evaluated through the lens of scripture, say about GOD. In this interview John shares: * What led him from agnosticism to the Bible, Jesus, faith and ministry * The overwhelming response to his book Imagine Heaven and God's call to write Imagine the God of Heaven * A note around discernment as we listen to near death testimonies and anchoring our theology in scripture * A Hindu man's experience with heaven, hell, a narrow gate, and his conversion to Christianity * Three of the ten points of evidence for life after death * How we reconcile different reports of Jesus's eye color and appearance * Reports of experiencers SEEING prayers in heaven and realizing the power of our prayers * A beautiful account of a former agnostic who dies and encounters Jesus and experiences a joy he has never known * His hope for every reader (per my closing note)

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world. ~ 1 John 4:1-3 NIV Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, 11 or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. 12 Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord; because of these same detestable practices the Lord your God will drive out those nations before you. ~ Deuteronomy 18:10-12 NIV

Nothing is going to help you the way that digging into the Word and surrendering to the Holy Spirit. Those are the main tools that you've got to cling to. He is the main one, really the only one that's going to give you all your answers and all your comfort and all the tools that you need to get through that situation." - Lindsay Jeter

Imagine hearing, "There is nothing we can do for you. You've got stage 4 cancer that has progressed to 90% of your bones. You may have 1-3 months to live. Just go home and be at peace with your family." Chuck Keel had always been a fighter. At a low point in the hospital, Jesus appears to Chuck and touches him on the shoulder. The message from Jesus and the journey that followed can only be described as miraculous! Today (over 8 years later) Chuck is thriving. His relationship with Jesus is solid and he is being obedient in his new calling of counseling others who are getting similar news from their doctors in his foundation called, "Get up and Live." Thank you, Chuck, for sharing your amazing testimony with us and for serving others around the world with your whole heart! You radiate the light of Jesus and are undoubtedly an inspiration to every person you meet! "When you believe in Jesus, when you believe that Jesus came here, suffered, died, and was buried, rose from the dead and took away all of our sins, everything changes. Despite all of the crazy decisions and stuff that I did in my life, Jesus is here for me now. You can go to him no matter what. There's a song, 'I run to the father again and again, we're broken, we're human, but He's there waiting for you.' My faith was what allowed me to say, you know what, I'm the guy riding around in my truck with my white knuckles trying to control everything, my kids, my job, my relationships, and guess what? Now that Jesus is a big, huge part of my life and my best friend, I can't change these things. But guess what? How about if I give them all to Him? I give them all to You, Jesus. Change the things you can and give the rest to God. It is so true. I lost my wife to cancer. I have kids, I have bills, I have every human thing just like you guys do. But the joy that I have in my heart now from walking with Jesus is absolutely incredible. I pray that you can open your heart to Him and experience this too." - Chuck Keels Chuck's website filled with resources for those fighting cancer, books, contact info: https://www.getupandlive.org/ Chuck's testimony on 700 Club (Miracle Man Sees Jesus): https://youtu.be/1Gg58qoBWoM

Aurora was 35, married with 4 young kids under the age of 7 when the doctors diagnosed her vision issue as optic neuritis related to Multiple Sclerosis (MS). They said her sight would never return, and based on the location of 10 lesions on her brain, the incurable, progressive disease would confine her to a wheelchair within five years. Aurora was devastated but soon found herself on a journey with God and forever changed. In this episode Aurora shares: * The first signs and the shock of seeing 10 lesions on her MRI * Getting the news from top local physicians * The turning point from fear and hopelessness to faith in Go * God leading her on a journey to healing through promptings and people * An impactful moment from her past would lead her to set the goal of one triathlon (while she still had function) * Seeing results from holistic and functional medicine providers that she didn't know were possible * The joy of receiving the call that her MS lesions completely disappeared * Finding a new love of a sport and completing over 51 triathlons(!) * Her passion as a triathlete becomes a platform where she could minister to others
"I have come that they might have life, and have it in abundance." -John 10:10

Shaun and I have a few things in common. We both have strong conservative Christian roots, and would have never imagined God would lead us to share near death testimonies on a platform. I loved having this opportunity to discuss his experience over the last few years and how this calling has challenged him, changed him, inspired him, and connected him to a beautiful community of believers. Shaun has interviewed an extensive list of near death experiencers (NDE), both heaven and hell, as well as guests with spiritually transformative experiences (STE). He has co-published 2 books around this subject and has a third one coming soon.
In this episode Shaun shares:
- How he was led to share near death testimonies
- How have these shares have at times challenged or supported his theology
- Which member of the Trinity is most frequently encountered
- Elements that have surprised him from both heaven and hellish reports
- How his view of prayer has been impacted
- One similarity between hellish and heaven experiences
- His thoughts on why some heaven experiencers are healed and some not
- His thoughts on the enhanced spiritual gifts of experiencers
- Which testimony has impacted him the most and relationships that have formed in the journey
- Thoughts on how God may be sending a direct message to the lost through these reports and some of the feedback from listeners
- What are some of the things he looks forward to in heaven
- Heaven feeling near as he continues to pray for his wife's healing and how God has moved in their family.

Trigger Warning: while this episode's focus is on miraculous healing and offers hope, there is mention of sexual abuse, satanic ritual abuse, suicidal thoughts, sexual addiction and eating disorder. Randy didn't want to admit he had a dark sexual addiction, but after nearly losing his life, he had no choice. Initially, Randy and his wife Cynthia had no idea regarding the extent of repressed trauma that was triggering these behaviors. Randy's sexual abuse started at age 3 and progressively got darker into his teens. On the heels of satanic ritual abuse at 14, he had a breakdown which required hospitalization and electroconvulsive shock therapy. The trauma of this unimaginable abuse would be repressed for 33 years. In a situation that seemed completely hopeless, Jesus led Randy and Cynthia to find healing, redemption, forgiveness, and restoration. In this episode Randy and his wife Cynthia share: * Randy's first realization that he was dealing with a sexual addiction * A pivotal prayer that would start his journey to healing * The courage to seek professional help, being diagnosed with PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) * Their experience with MDMA therapy after exhausting every possible avenue * Inviting Jesus to be with him through the trial...and meeting him in the trial * An other worldly experience with Jesus and people that Jesus wanted him to meet * A life changing experience with Jesus and God the Father * A grandmother's love and the power of her prayers * Randy's new calling and desire to bring hope for those that are struggling with PTSD
"I want others to know that no matter how dark it is, there is always hope, and God can meet you in your hopelessness. He will bring you hope. I want to help someone else. I want to plant hope and healing in those who are lost." - Randy Lail Cynthia's words for loved ones of those struggling with PTSD: "They've got to get through it. Don't put off getting help. The memories are not going away until you face them and deal with them. And you've just got to be there and love on them and don't give up. To get to this point that we're at now is amazing. But it was a lot of really hard years. God kept us together. I kept praying and going to church and trusting that God would bring him out on the other side and it would be amazing." "In Him (Jesus) was life, and that life was the light of men. The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it."

Katie J. Carsten radically encountered the Lord Jesus Christ and His love for her in 2014 and she has been on fire for Him ever since. She spent many years as a nurse until the Lord called her away from her job in 2018, telling her that her primary ministry was to her family and to bring them to Him. Little did she know that less than a year later she would encounter the greatest fight of her life, the fight for her son’s salvation and destiny. God, in His infinite wisdom and great love, prepared her in advance for what was coming, making sure that she had the time needed to devote not only to the battle, but to her family and the women God has brought into her life and He has more than abundantly provided for her and her family.

Isaiah 61:3 (Insert names) will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor. "You better believe he can meet our prodigals. Anyone's prodigal, Anyone's lost ones, no matter how lost, how deceived, they are not too far gone for Jesus. Don't give up. That's the key. Don't give up. Never ever stop believing. Never. Even if you have to go to your grave believing, you go to your grave believing for their salvation." - Katie Carsten How to reach Katie: Katiekmj1@gmail.com

This process has brought about changes in character and changes in the way I approach relationships with people. It changes the very notion of the man that I'm supposed to be on this Earth." - A grateful and faith filled Steve Had Steve Had's contact on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/steve-had-3196423 Denise's email: denise@myfarmcamps.com Denise's beautiful farm and ministry: https://www.myfarmcamps.com/ Denise's testimony on her youtube channel: https://youtu.be/iAkUJF2vVWI A link for the gamma knife radiation treatment that Denise referred to: https://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/brain-stereotactic-radiosurgery/about/pac-20384679

Tomas shares his life changing encounter with Jesus and how Jesus called him to create a new version of the cross. Tomas had always been sensitive in the spirit. After his church failed to help him understand and develop these gifts, he fell into the world of new age. It was 1988 when Tomas was awoken from his sleep to a vivid encounter with Christ that would lead him to truth. In this episode Tomas shares: -His open vision and encounter with Jesus that changed everything -How he was called to create a new version of the cross, and its meaning -A supernatural phenomenon at a church where light beamed from the cross -How a big project for the Seoul Olympics was tabled but is now finding purpose -A Buddhist receives a supernatural sign from God through the cross sculpture -A unexpected supernatural sign that came from the shadow of his art for a rehab facility -His connection to other artists who are using their art to serve others "And for those believers that have drifted into what we call the new age, which is sort of the belief that all spokes lead to the center, a book that was a motivational book for me was called The Beautiful Side of Evil. And this challenges these spirit entities, I'm not even suggesting that they're not there. They are there. I know you're dealing with real things, but the litmus test comes down to this. Who are they serving? And are they acknowledging that Jesus is the son of God? And that they're serving him because his name is the name that they have to acknowledge and bow... There's an atonement that happens through his sacrifice. And he makes a way for us to be restored back to standing in front of the tree of a life, which is the cross being washed in the water of the word, being washed spirit, water, He cleanses us and repurposes us." - Tomas Fernandez, Prophetic Artist To follow or contact Tomas and his prophetic art: www.tomasjfernandezartist.com YouTube links for Tomas: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4sLkeKp00PLlMKsrU95vEiU9bhhxdz3F

John died twice while in the hospital being treated for sepsis in 2020. The second time his heart stopped he had a profound experience and found himself in the arms of Jesus Christ. Jesus baptized him and explained that John was not going to be staying, but that he would be sent back with an important message. He also heard scripture from Jesus and was not aware it was scripture until his return. Also in his experience he had a life review, he saw the Archangel Michael, visited with many of his old family members, saw some well known saints, and enjoyed the beauty of heaven. Upon his return, John is filled with the love of Jesus and has been blessed with a gfit to see when people are dealing with demonic oppression. He shares two experiences where he was able to address those presences directly and help the person find freedom. "He said, 'I am sending you back. There's too much hate in the world right now, way too much. I'm not very happy about that and I'm gonna send you back and I want you to teach people how to love one another, as I love them.'" - John Carter
This is my commandment: Love each other in the same way I have loved you. John 15:12 NLT

John says he has been forever changed by his experience and is passionate about serving others and loving people, and sharing his message from Jesus. He has established a website where he shares a painting of Jesus that he feels is exactly what he saw. www.john-carter.org John worked for 22 years as a corrections officer and then as a Federal Air Marshall following 9/11. The portion of John's testimony around the health part of this journey was arduous and life threatening. It included times where he was close to multisystem organ failure. After having a section of his aorta and heart replaced, he reports that he is now nearly 90% and hopeful to make a full recovery. Thank you, John, for sharing your testimony! You are certainly a light for Jesus!
Susan's 15 year old son Josh was crushed in an ATV accident just days before Christmas. Medical help may have been far away, but God was not. Susan shares how God prepared her for this event, how her family was prompted to pray, the miracles that would follow, and how it led her to get involved with Moms in Prayer, and ultimately, with the Open Eyes ministry. A former Registered Nurse, Susan Younis has been an Area Coordinator for Moms in Prayer for 3 years and leading Moms in Prayer groups for 7 years. She is also working with a beautiful ministry called Open Eyes as a Donor Ambassador. Susan shares as she reflects back to attending her first prayer group solo as Josh was healing: "The takeaway is to say yes when He (God) calls you to something. I love what Charles Stanley says, 'Obedience always brings blessings.' It's scary but I want to be where God wants me to be. On our journey He writes our story, He loves us, and has good plans for us. Sometimes it is hard to step out of that boat, but when you do, it honors God. It will bless you and you'll be a blessing to other people." - Susan Younis 1 John 5:13-15 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.
Thank you Susan, for sharing this beautiful testimony with us, and for your service with Moms in Prayer and with Open Eyes as well! You are a blessing to me and to so many others! Moms In Prayer links: https://momsinprayer.org/

In March 2020, Randy contracted COVID-19 and spent six weeks in the hospital. Three and a half weeks were spent in a medically induced coma on a ventilator, on dialysis, and finally on an Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) machine. As Randy's heart and organs began to fail, he was given a 3% chance of survival. While in the coma, Randy experienced three near-death experiences. He traveled twice through a dark tunnel. His first trip exited into a beautiful building resembling a great hall and his second into a magnificent city. He was privileged with the ability to see several deceased relatives and was honored when an unknown deceased veteran chose him to deliver a message to his granddaughter. Randy was able to validate this experience (evidence!) by locating the granddaughter and passing her grandfather’s message to her (54:00). These experiences have inspired in Randy a love for Jesus and for the Bible. "God has a plan. He is real. There is a heaven and it's beautiful." -Randy Schiefer "Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.” Jesus's words from John 14:1-4 NIV Randy holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology and a Master of Forensics Science Degree. He spent 20 years in the United States Air Force as a Security Policeman and as a Special Agent in the Office of Special Investigations. He retired in 1992. From the Air Force Randy started teaching at the collegiate level, entering as an adjunct instructor and working his way to Department Chair and finally as the college campus Director. He retired (again) in 2014 and moved to Florida in 2015.

Lorrie and her friend Jacki witnessed a precious miracle blessing that God performed for a group of children on their mission trip in Tecate, Mexico. A group from their church traveled and sponsored a birthday party for Jesus event complete with shoebox gifts, puppet shows, food, punch, birthday cake, and a craft. Lorrie and Jacki purchased 500 pieces of polaroid film per the church budget, and personally assembled the accompanying frame and decor in 500 plastic bags. The photo line seemed never ending and Lorrie was praying that each child waiting would get to have a coveted photo and craft. "Don't look up, just keep shooting," Jacki reassured Lorrie. The ending to this heartwarming story is something the two of them could not have imagined and will forever hold dear.
God LOVES children. He showed up quietly, yet undeniably, at the birthday party. "God is alive. God is real. He is still in the business of performing miracles!" - Lorrie Grant
Mark 10:13-16 People were bringing little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them, but the disciples rebuked them. When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.” And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them.

Heidi was 16 when she died and met Jesus. She grew up in a Jewish home and was told that Jesus was not real, that he was a hoax, yet when she saw him, she knew immediately who He was, and that He had been the one that she had been talking with for so many years in her childhood. This phenomenal experience impacted her profoundly and changed the trajectory of her life. Her physical healing after her horse riding accident is also miraculous! Heidi's new and all consuming love for Jesus led her to Israel, where she lived for over one year. She learned Hebrew and relished walking where Jesus walked during his time on Earth. "Since I met Jesus I know that God has a plan. The plan is unfolding and we are all part of his plan. If I can meet Jesus, coming from my background, anyone can. He's there for every single one of us, no matter what we are going through, and I know that without a doubt." - Heidi Barr For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 Thank you, Heidi, for sharing this powerful testimony with us!
Wayne suffered from a heart attack just 7 days after he accepted Jesus as his Savior. He experienced a profound time with Jesus during this near death experience where Biblical things were clearly highlighted. When Wayne did get to the hospital after his incident, a heart attack was confirmed, but miraculously there was no residual damage to his heart muscle! Wayne is a lawyer from Texas who is currently working in Australia. He also has a history of working in military defense as a contractor and has a very logical and detailed personality. His near death experience has left him with a voracious hunger for reading scripture and he loves to share that Jesus is real and that his love for each one of us is more than we can fathom. "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

Alex was days away from his first day of college (2020) when tragedy struck. A jet ski accident left him with a severe traumatic brain injury, 3 broken ribs, a broken jaw, a broken clavicle, fixed and dilated pupils, and a punctured lung. Given his Glascow Coma Score of 3 (lowest possible score nearly always indicating no chance of survival), and the loss of most of his blood volume, his father was greeted in the ER with the news no parent wants to hear, "We need to prepare you." Despite the worst possible prognosis, Alex has overcome impossible odds. Miraculously, he is alive, he has a new relationship with the Holy Spirit, he is working, he is running, and has plans and big dreams for college in 2022!
In this episode Alex shares: -How the accident affected his body and memory. -The people God sent into his life that had a huge impact on his healing. -The beautiful new relationship he has with the Holy Spirit, who clearly guides him. -Being featured on the local news several times and meeting the people that intervened on that crazy day (watch link below to see a few of the key people that are part of this miracle). -How contracting the big bad virus was actually a blessing for him (crazy!). His doctor was amazed. -How prayer and worship music was so powerful in his journey (see playlists below). -How life is different now, a new career path and new dream. -His gratitude to God, to his care providers at Atrium and at the Shepherd Center (Atlanta), and especially his parents, for doing everything in their power to help. Some of the therapies Alex has utilized in addition to PT/OT for his healing include hyperbaric oxygen treatments, neurofeedback treatments, speech therapy, vision therapy, vestibular therapy.

As we honor all of those who have served in the military this Veteran's Day I thought it was the perfect time to share a beautiful piece of my father's testimony. Kendal Stewart was born in a small mountain town in Kentucky and enjoyed a modest, yet joy filled and innocent childhood. He was the 8th of 9 children, and developed a strong work ethic early in his life. His mother and father taught him strong Christian values and how to appreciate the beauty in simple things. Upon graduation from high school he planned to enlist in the Army, but God directed his military service differently than he expected. He reflects upon the fervent prayers of his mother and is grateful to see God's hand in pivotal steps of the journey. In this episode Kendal shares: -How God led him to serve in the US Air Force. -How his education prior to enlisting set him up for his life's work. -His role in the Air Force not being what he had hoped, but exactly what would suit God's plan. -His multiple roles serving in Dover, Delaware (AC & Heat, Funeral duties, Disaster Control team), being offered a promotion to fly over Cuba on a special mission. -His experience of being filled with the Holy Spirit for the first time and the impact it had on his life. -That our best testimony is in how we live and in loving others authentically. -What he would say to his 18 year old self if he had the chance. John 15:13 NIV Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends.
Mike Olsen died on the operating room table when he bled out during his double lung transplant. He found himself in heaven where he met Jesus and his organ donor, where he was able to let the donor know his deep gratitude, and get a message from Jesus about the new lungs. Yes, Mike's testimony is remarkable, but what I love most about his message are his insights from heaven. He experienced overwhelming peace in heaven, and he sees life differently in the light of eternity. "I realized I couldn't remember my past. I couldn't remember any sin. it was like it had been erased from a black board. I felt so encouraged and blessed. I just felt, WOW... it was all Jesus! Everything we accomplish in life...it is all Him. All of the striving, all of the worrying! I had an epiphany in heaven. Oh my goodness, I wasted SO much time worrying about finances, family, my spouse, how I appear to others, if I was doing enough, if I was pleasing God. It was like a weight had been lifted, and I realized that in Heaven none of that matters! Even the suffering, although I didn't like it, even though it was hard waiting for the transplant, even that doesn't matter in the light of eternity. The things that we go through might seem like they are long and gruesome, and horrible down here, But in the light of eternity, it's all woven into who we will be." - Mike Olsen Mike and his wife Patti live in Louisville, KY. He is a retired Pastor of Iona Community Church. In 2014 he was diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a disease of progressive scarring of the lungs with no cure. The doctors told him he had 2 years to live and advised him to go home and make arrangements. Transplant would be his only option, but not a guarantee. Mike decided he wanted to make every breath count. He was passionate about bringing awareness to IPF and in helping others. He received his new lungs on January 7, 2019. In this episode Mike shares:
-God's word to him at the time of the devastating diagnosis that gave him supernatural peace.
-The power of the prayers he was receiving.
-Ruben's 3am call and the impact of listening to someone in need.
-God's orchestration of meetings with politicians, celebrities, and the President to promote awareness and make an impact.
-God's beautiful message in a vision during his wait for transplant.
-The experience of being bathed in the light of heaven, seeing swirls of colorful lights (rainbow) and angels singing, meeting Jesus and the donor.
-Seeing an angel at his bedside during recovery.
-His book in progress about his experience and many other pieces of his journey, titled, "Bathed in Heaven's Light."
-Joshua Mills' testimony where he was taken in the Spirit to China and evidence that followed.
-Experience in his church with God's glory manifesting as gold on a child.
"Our God is in heaven; he does whatever pleases him." - Psalm 115:3 NIV
"Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven. He was robed in a cloud, with a rainbow above his head; his face was like the sun, and his legs were like fiery pillars. and he gave a loud shout like the roar of a lion." - Revelation 10:1 NIV

Jocelynn realized something had to change when she saw herself on television in a "Most Wanted" report. Sixteen felonies, a drug addiction, multiple crimes to sustain it, the lies, homeless and tired of fighting, she called the police department and turned herself in. It was a process, but she submitted her life to Jesus and was delivered. In the years to come God would call her to serve in so many ways, including the donation of her kidney to one of the officers who arrested her on 3 different occasions. In this episode Jocelynn shares: -The heartache of those darker days, and her path to recovery. -How God told her she would have a facility for helping others get set free from addiction. -The day she clearly heard God tell her that she had the officer's kidney, how it was such a perfect match that the hospital assumed she was his daughter, that it was in excellent condition, and it set a record for most urine output after transplant! -The beautiful way God blessed her in how she would share the news of the kidney donation with her children (God is in the details). -The Place for Grace ministry and how God is opening doors and providing in miraculous ways. -Her encouraging message for those listening who are struggling with addiction. -A fundraiser ending 10/20/2021 where you can donate $100 and get a chance to win a car -I pray a blessing over our listeners and we give God the glory for who He is and how He loves us.

Sheila has experienced many miracles and is grateful to be alive! She has overcome hardships from nearly every possible spectrum of struggle. She has two muscle and nerve diseases that present daily challenges, she has been in 20 car accidents, she was paralyzed from the neck down in her past, was hit by a bus, and was once married to a man who struggled with addiction. While she has overcome so much hardship, is now a best selling author, and has achieved great success as a business professional, it is Sheila's humility and passionate love and devotion for the Lord that I admire the most. I was thrilled to have a chance to talk with her about what it means to love God with all your heart, all of your soul and all of your mind. In this episode we discuss: - The importance of doing the healing work to overcome false beliefs about ourselves we may have incorporated in childhood (therapy can facilitate this for many). -Choose the truth of God's Word about your identity versus what your past life experiences dictate. -Truly accepting God's love, forgiveness and grace for yourself, then you can be capable of loving him with ALL of you, and then radiating that out to your neighbors. -The story of the prodigal son as an illustration of God's love for us. -True identity and responsibility of a Christian (are we truly acting Christ-like?). -Asking God to help us see others as HE sees them can help us to react from a place of love. -Navigating loving a person suffering from addiction without enabling them. -A powerful moment where she experienced the overwhelming peace of the Holy Spirit in conflict, which equipped her to be Christ-like in the moment. -Practical tips for this time of division include taking every thought captive, when you want to react, stop and pray and remember that we are to be kind like Jesus was kind. -Sheila's 6 books and new upcoming podcast "Made Whole." Inspired by Sheila's share and I cannot wait to check out her other highly rated books! Thank you, Sheila! Matthew 22:36-40 NIV 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”
37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” James 1:19 NIV My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry.

Chuck Carr has experienced some profound losses in his life, but also profound healing and redemption! He has known tremendous grief in his life, has overcome depression, has learned to cope after loss and now has a heart to help others that are grieving or suffering with depression or hopelessness. God has blessed Chuck with a new calling through this healing process, a beautiful support network, and a new found joy! In this episode, Chuck shares losing his college sweetheart and wife to a battle with stomach cancer in 2008, losing his youth ministry that he loved after a church split, a life altering traumatic brain injury in 2018, and the process of healing that took place, the impact of a testimony (Joni Eareckson Tada), God's new calling of writing, some of his divinely inspired award winning books, and how his testimony is not only reaching people around the world, it is equipping them and bringing them healing! I so enjoyed my time chatting with Chuck, his transparency, his love for Christ, and his genuine desire to minister to those that are hurting. I cannot wait to see what God does through him next! Chuck's message to those in a place of heartache, "God will not leave you here. Be faithful to God. God will be faithful to you."
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."

Jeff Fusco is a husband and father from Canfield, Ohio who experienced not only a baffling physical healing from the virus of 2020/2021 (has been featured on Fox news with video testimony of 2 of his many physicians), but a powerful near death experience where he saw Jesus. Jeff's testimony is so powerful that the enemy tried to steal it! During his time in the hospital Jeff was approached by an evil entity and tempted. His medical records reflect and support his testimony. He is sharing his spiritual journey and a beautiful message to inspire others. The devil was rebuked and Jeff is living out his testimony in such a powerful way and sharing the light of Jesus! On top of all of this goodness, Jeff is one of the kindest people you can meet. I loved recording this testimony!
Back in March of 2020, Jeff was 57 and working as an Executive Vice President of GBS Corp in North Canton, OH (a high tech productivity firm) and was one of the first 100 people in OH to contract the well publicized virus. Jeff had some underlying risk factors (multiple myeloma and leukemia). Upon being diagnosed, he deteriorated rapidly. Within days he was placed on a ventilator (for 3 weeks), ran a temp of 104 for 2 weeks, experienced renal failure requiring dialysis, his epithelium in his intestines were ravaged which caused hemorrhage so severe he lost liters of blood with a hemoglobin as low as 4, experienced multisystem organ failure with liver and kidney involvement, a decubitus ulcer with sepsis, and 3-4 surgeries. There were an estimated 100 physicians having some role in his care, 3 hospitals last of which he was airlifted to the Cleveland Clinic. At the lowest point his family was told to make preparations for his passing, likely within the next 2 hours.
In this episode, Jeff shares his profound, undeniable medical miracle, his encounter with Jesus, being approached and tempted by an evil entity (twice), and the beautiful confirmation from God he received shortly before he was discharged. In Jeff's encounter with Jesus, he was given free will as to whether he could stay in heaven or come back and was told he would do God's work in either place. Jeff is truly doing the work, even as he is still rehabilitating, and has encouraged and witnessed to many people around the globe. His heart for helping others is truly beautiful. His testimony is being published in a book by Guide Post and is due to be in print this fall.

Reports of near death experiences, glimpses of heaven and encounters with Jesus are occurring at a frequency as high as 1 in 10 in Europe. While these reports are subjective, and cannot become the framework for our theology, there are undeniable commonalities that clearly correlate with scripture. Could these testimonies be God's way of allowing us to have more insight to the life that is to come? If yes, how do these revelations change the way we live today? In this episode: What led John to study near death experiences? What is a near death experience and at what rate are they occuring? What are common features of a near death experience? What do people experience in heaven? What is a life review? WHO do people see in heaven? What are some of the scriptures that correlate with these reports? How many people have a hell experience? How do different religions/cultures interpret their experiences? If God loves us so much, how can he send anyone to hell? Who goes to heaven? What resources are helpful for those searching for proof of Jesus Christ as the Son of God? What steps does someone take if they want to know Jesus? Where to find more on John and the interviews he has conducted? John Burke has studied over 1,000 near death experiences over the last 30 years. He has spoken on this topic in over 20 countries to over 200,000 leaders and Christians. He has attended seminary and also studied the world's major religions and ancient writings. A former engineer, his research is thorough and analytical.

Kenny and Kelly prayed for a miracle for their unborn baby girl (2002). Doctors had diagnosed the unborn baby with serious birth defects and advised that they terminate the pregnancy. While the parents prayed for a miracle, they also made preparations for her passing shortly after her delivery and chose a casket and burial place. Full of mixed emotions, they arrived at the hospital to deliver their baby and were thrilled to see that she was born and was thriving! A national Christian network was notified and broadcasted the story of the medical miracle, and God was praised. It wasn't long, unfortunately, before the couple realized that the doctors were right about many of the hardships they would have to face related to Ellie's complex medical issues. In this episode Kenny shares the deeply personal story of their journey with their daughter, how God moved through other people to bless their family, how God moved through their situation to bring good to a local facility, their family's adoption of Landry Kate, and gives valuable insight as to what the Bible says about trials and trusting in God's heart when you can't see his hand. Abortion is also discussed and we pray over those in a trial and for those who have had an abortion in the past. "Dr. Kenny Hibbard, founder and lead pastor of Team Church, is a straightforward Bible teacher who uniquely connects God’s unchanging biblical truth with today’s culture. Kenny's creative conversational style of teaching is practical, inspirational and easy to understand.

A diagnosis of 3A Hodgkin's Lymphoma came as a shock for Randy Sage. He and his wife Angela were fit and healthy, had a full life, family, and a thriving custom home building business. The physicians expressed that the aggressive cancer growing rapidly in his neck and chest must be treated right away. Without the chemotherapy, he was given a prognosis of only months to live.
Teena grew up in a controlled environment, was sexually abused, oppressed, lonely, full of fear, and even suicidal at times. Risking everything, she escaped from her forced, pre-arranged marriage and hoped to find a new life. Her Earthly family disowned her, but God had plans. Teena soon relocated from the UK to Canada where everything would change. After witnessing a tragic accident she began to think about heaven and the afterlife and her own salvation. In late 2016 Teena attended church with a friend, where she accepted Jesus and was baptized in 2017. God gave her a special revelation as she learned the meaning of the new nickname she had chosen after leaving her family, "follower of Christ." God began revealing a special gift to Teena as she began to get downloads of poems. These divinely inspired songs/poems were found to contain actual scripture from the Bible that Teena had not yet read! She began to realize that these downloads were from the Lord and were powerful prophecies and evangelical messages. She continues to write with power and passion and has produced some of these (see attached videos and links). God gave Teena a special gift through her new VOICE, something that she felt she never had in her previous life! Teena shares many other pieces of the story, including her life as Muslim versus the new life as a Christ follower, the conversion of her current husband to Christianity, her new passion with her spoken word, and a beautiful message of love and forgiveness. Although Teena has not reconnected with her family in the UK, she shares that she loves and forgives them. She shared with me, "Love is not an option, love is not a choice, love is not a recommendation or suggestion. Love is a COMMANDMENT." Teena takes a moment to speak to the Muslim community and she concludes our time by offering an invitation and a prayer of salvation, and I am nearly speechless. I am in awe that in this world where so many can be so far from God in a moment, yet there is ALWAYS hope in Jesus Christ. I am beyond honored to share this miracle of redemption and restoration, and healing! I am excited to see where God takes this passionate woman, and all that are going to be set FREE through her powerful testimony! Praise Jesus! Isaiah 41:10 NIV "So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Jeremiah 29:13 NIV
"You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." John 3:16 NIV "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

Amy shares some of her highlights and heartaches while living in the beautiful United Arab Emirates. She married a Captain in the Egyptian Army, who risked everything to be with her. Their life was full of adventure and joy, but also the painful loss of twins (one in utero and one born premature), a miscarriage, and ultimately a divorce. Sadly, Amy also lost her father, her mother and her sister. All of this while experiencing progressive loss of her vision as she was diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentosa at age 28, a hereditary vision condition that results in blindness. In her book Seeking Solace: Finding Joy After Loss she shares how God healed her heart many times, often in supernatural ways. She found, especially in the case of her babies, that God did give her so many miracles to glorify him in her healing. He also faithfully brought people into her life that could love her and encourage her in difficult times. Today Amy is an author, blogger, speaker, and she continues to educate others through her books and talks in spite of her vision and hearing loss. She's a Low Vision Motivator with High Expectations. While she features other cultures in her writing, she focuses on how God has taken her life on adventures of faith through losses right at home. She loves to speak about a bright future no matter how dark it physically becomes. Amy’s memoirs include: Mobility Matters: Stepping Out in Faith, Cane Confessions: The Lighter
Side to Mobility and a memoir / devotional, Seeking Solace: Finding Joy After Loss. In 2015, Amy joined a group of blind professionals who volunteer their time to help others
cope with blindness at VisionAware.org, an outreach website now under the auspices of the
American Printing House.
In 2016, Ohio Valley University, Amy’s undergraduate institution, awarded her the
Distinguished Medal of Literature for Mobility Matters.
Amy is an active member of several community groups, which include Pennwriters, West
PA Authors, Toastmasters, the West County Lions Club, and the National Federation of
the Blind. Jeremiah 31:13 NIV "Then young women will dance and be glad, young men and old as well. I will turn their mourning into gladness; I will give them comfort and joy instead of sorrow." Isaiah 42:16 NIV "I will lead the blind by ways they have not known,
along unfamiliar paths I will guide them;
I will turn the darkness into light before them
and make the rough places smooth.
These are the things I will do;
I will not forsake them."
Her husband and high school sweetheart was found dead after he was crushed under a 300 lb piece of metal (January 3, 2012). Although he was miraculously resuscitated, she was given no real hope for a recovery. Against all odds, not only has Doug survived death and the brain injury, he is also far exceeding medical expectations. He’s proving the medical community wrong and that God is still in the miracle business. Holding on to hope and standing in faith, Tammy contended for his life after hearing what she understood to be an audible voice telling her, “This will be the hardest journey of your life, but if you trust me, Doug will be okay.”
Tammy shares openly:
-How God prepared them for this trial
-How God spoke to her so clearly throughout the experience and delivered on these promises
-The miracle of Doug's recovery and the rigors of rehabilitation
-The road to Doug's half marathon and the joy of encouraging others
-Interaction with possible angel with a much needed message at a low point
-Importance of self care and getting counseling or help for yourself as a caregiver and spouse
-Insights about the importance of allowing yourself to grieve after a traumatic experience
-A beautiful prophetic gift from Doug with a powerful message (for all of us!)
-Calling to share her message in a book, how the writing became therapeutic for her
-Importance of taking time to be with Jesus, surrendering and the renewing of your mind
-Beautiful take away message and insight for those going through a difficult time (this is SO beautiful!)
1 Peter 1:6-7
"In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed."
Tammy and Doug reside in beautiful Missoula, Montana. Tammy is an author and speaker and is passionate about encouraging others as a Life Coach. Loved this update from her website:
"When I am not rewiring the brain, coaching, or speaking, I can be found in the kitchen trying out the latest recipe I have discovered or hiking/cross country skiing in the woods with my dogs, Lark, a Border Collie and Sidney, an Australian Shepherd. Doug and I love to float the river or ride our recumbent bikes together when the opportunity presents itself. We are optimistic Doug will be able to resume skiing in some fashion. We continue to seek out new adventures, and we love to share our miracle story of hope and healing with others."

She was a varsity athlete and honor roll student with a bright future and dreams when she met a young man that lured her down a path that she could have never imagined. Brainwashed, trapped, and beaten, she was traded and sold in the underground world of sex trafficking in Las Vegas for nearly six years.

His assignment from Satan was to kill Pastor Craig Groeschel. For twenty years he lived and worked for the enemy. Today he is a redeemed evangelist and minister and is no longer enslaved in darkness. This testimony is a miracle of redemption and a reminder that hope, peace, joy and freedom are available for anyone, regardless of how far they may be from God.

It was July 13, 2016 when Stephen's son Hudson passed away from primary amoebic meningoencephalitis caused by an amoeba known as Naegleria Fowleri. People commonly refer to it as the “brain eating amoeba.”
Hudson contracted this illness while working at a Christian camp. He was a counselor at that time and he spent his last week on Earth telling kids about Jesus. He was a kind, gentle, and funny young man. Moments after he passed away, his father remembers walking out of the Intensive Care area, seeing one of his mentors and asking him “Was Hudson ok with God?” His overwhelming thoughts immediately were:
-
Is what I’ve claimed to believe all true? Is he just going in the ground now or does he live on?
-
If it is true, is he ok? Did he make it??? I can’t at all take care of him on that side.
Over the past 3 and a half years God has not stopped giving Stephen miraculous reassurances that indeed life does go on, Jesus is real and that he has Hudson wrapped in his arms.
Highlights in this testimony:
-
Jesus at his bedside in the ICU
-
Swing Low Sweet Chariot
-Dietrich Bonhoeffer quote
-Beautiful message to other parents who have lost a child
-Visit from a new friend who shares about allowing people to grieve differently
-Note of thanks and appreciation for Frontier Camp
-My favorite possible way to end this video! Stephen shares about his son and we see a tribute video of Hudson that was created by Frontier Camp. Hudson shares a beautiful message that will be forever treasured. I loved seeing Hudson in his element, proclaiming the way of salvation through Jesus Christ.
Take away messages from Stephen:
"As great as these signs and miracles can be, don't get caught up in them, but keep your eyes on Christ."
"Trying to figure out why is never going to bring you comfort. Seek the presence of God. He will show up and comfort you."
Romans 8:28 New International Version (NIV) 28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who[a] have been called according to his purpose.
Romans 8:38-39 New International Version (NIV)
38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[a] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
John 6: 68-69 68 Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. 69 We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God.”
Stephen, I am honored to share this very personal and powerful testimony of God moving in your life during a time of unimaginable loss. Thank you for sharing your heart and a bit of Hudson with us, and for speaking to others that may be suffering. Your faith and your healing are an inspiration!

Robert Decker endured more trials in his childhood than most endure in a lifetime. His dysfunctional childhood included periods of neglect, substance abuse, and violence. The years of sadness, pain, anger, and hopelessness culminated in a failed suicide attempt. At his lowest point, Robert found himself in a hospital bed with multiple serious injuries, told he would never walk again. He was handcuffed to his hospital bed, accused of a crime he did not commit. It was in this pit of despair that God spoke to Robert in a powerful way. With God's help, everything changed. He was able to turn his story into one of forgiveness, understanding, and love. His desire is to inspire, encourage, and give hope to those who have had similar battles. Today Robert is happily married and living in Colorado Springs with his two young children. He is a husband, father, health coach, fitness trainer, inspirational speaker, and author. He is passionate about helping others. My favorite take aways from Robert: "You are NOT alone. You are LOVED." "There is purpose and hope for all of our lives." "In the midst of trials and hurt there is opportunity for growth." "Allow your heart to be changed. Address the things that hurt so that healing can take place. Forgiveness is HUGE." "Surround yourself with people that truly care about you." "DON'T give up!" "When you receive healing...go out and HELP other people. There is nothing more gratifying than that!" Thank you, Robert, for sharing this deeply personal testimony. I am blessed to hear your faith (and healing) journey after so much heartache. You are undoubtedly an inspiration to many! Let the redeemed of the LORD tell their story— those he redeemed from the hand of the foe. - Psalm 107:2 NIV For you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body. - 1 Corinthians 6:20 ESV
A 15 month old baby girl is near death after contracting meningitis. Her parents are given the grave prognosis and the physicians ask permission to discontinue life support. The baby's father, Don Fallick, felt compelled to give her a blessing before discontinuing treatment. Although he felt at a loss for words, he exercised his faith, and when his mouth opened, "In the name of Jesus Christ, I command you to recover and be well!" The presence of the Holy Spirit was so strong that nurses were drawn into the room stating that they felt something shift. What happens next is miraculous! Don shares the "prefigured" prophetic piece in the choosing of his daughters name 18 months prior to this event and its significance. He also shares more about this very spiritual experience and its blessings in the Children's Hospital Intensive Care Unit. Mark 5:41 NIV He took her by the hand and said to her, "Talitha koum!" (which means "Little girl, I say to you, get up!") Don Fallick enjoys playing the guitar and he has created a site where you can download complimentary Gospel friendly arrangements: https://mormonguitartabs.blogspot.com/2009/01/etud.html

Kaylah's life was forever changed on her first mission trip to Haiti with Bless Back Worldwide in the summer of 2017. She instantly fell in love with the people of Haiti. God planted a passion in Kaylah for empowering educators with the ultimate hope of eliminating poverty. This passion blossomed into a nonprofit organization, Go Teach Be Love, which empowers educators in under-resourced and developing countries in order to foster innovative and sustainable educational environments. In this episode Kaylah shares her experience in Haiti (Oct 2019) during a hostile time when unrest was escalating, roads were barricaded and violence was erupting. She was faced with attempting to evacuate under life threatening conditions when she received a random, divine text from a friend back home reassuring her that God would not set her feet in a place without a plan (he was completely unaware of what was happening at that moment). Listen as she recalls the miraculous way that God cleared the way for her!

In this episode she shares the vivid details of her encounter with the living Jesus Christ, and how it blessed her during her time of struggle with colon cancer. She also shares how the enemy invaded her home after this glorious blessing, and how prayer helped to restore peace. "Its important to let people know what struggles you are experiencing so they can pray for you."

He has a beautiful plan for each of us. Don't underestimate what God can do with the even the smallest thing that you give him!
Bryan was in the prime of his life. Excelling in his law enforcement career, his beautiful wife Meg was expecting, and it was days before Christmas. Responding to a dispatch to an icy condition on a steep hill, Bryan got out of his patrol car and started to walk around the front of the car and that was all he remembered. Witnesses state that his feet slipped out from under him and he landed on his head, breaking two of his cervical vertebrae and sliding down the road. Life changed for Bryan and his family in a mere moment. Bryan candidly shares his very personal ten year struggle that followed, the lowest point at which he felt he could not bear to live, and the path that led to much needed inner healing and the MIRACLE that is undeniable in the return of the function of his right hand and his right leg.

Listen as Jo recalls the experience, the events that come full circle leading into this appearance and the final sign from above affirming the promise that Jo made to Raphael. Just beautiful! "When you feel so far away, that's when he is the closest and is pursuing you the most!

She is faced with caring for a mix of patients simultaneously...a critically wounded child, a female civilian, an Iraqi soldier, and an ISIS fighter. Hear the challenges she faced, the shift in perspective that she never anticipated, how it impacted her faith, and how God provided a miracle conversion in the most unlikely of converts. "Let me give you a new command: Love one another. In the same way I loved you, you love one another. This is how everyone will recognize that you are my disciples--when they see the love you have for each other." John 13:34-35 MSG Brittany's lesson in God's limitless grace and mercy: "If God can work through someone like that, someone who has done unspeakable acts...this was the impossible, and God did it. It grew my faith."
Daytona shares a very personal story about a trauma she endured, and the journey of healing that followed. Her father was stationed in Germany during the war, and she (a young teen) had to undergo surgical placement of an implantable cardiac device for an unstable heart condition.

Daytona shares candidly the highs and lows in her healing journey, and offers hope for others that are struggling with PTSD (Post traumatic Stress Disorder), and forgiveness.
Julie Kemp has 11 years of experience as a Grief Facilitator. Additionally, Julie has personally experienced loss at the holidays, and she finds peace in helping others that are on a grief journey. Julie lost her husband suddenly in a car accident in October of 1997. While her son Landon (age 8) miraculously survived, he had a long road to recovery. She spent Thanksgiving in the hospital, and got to take her son home the week before Christmas. She shares openly what she experienced that first year, what helped her cope, and offers practical tips for those facing loss this holiday. She also shares warning signs for trouble and how to intervene when help is needed. Julie's recommendations for Thanksgiving: Count your blessings! Be thankful. Create a gratitude list A-Z, anything that comes to mind. Be thankful as you remember the many special ways your life was touched by your loved one. You hurt so much because you loved so much. Julie's top 10 Holiday Survival Tips: 1. Allow yourself to break away from old traditions, or start new traditions, at least for the first year. Even subtle changes can help you cope. Make a plan. 2. Give yourself permission to cry. Don't apologize for your feelings or for your tears. Grief is a process, and it is different for everyone. 3. If you are going to a social function and are unsure you can handle it, take a close friend who can speak for you if the words become too difficult. Make sure you have an exit if needed. 4. Light a candle to remember your loved one. You can create a special area to display photos to honor times together. 5. Don't expect too much of yourself. If you need to get alone, or leave early from an event, allow yourself that opportunity. Set healthy boundaries for yourself. 6. If you don't feel like listening to Christmas music or sending cards, then don't! There will be a time when you feel like doing it again, but you can skip a year or two until you feel ready. 7. Consider giving a gift in memory of your loved on to your favorite charity, needy family, or to an organization your loved one supported or belonged. 8. Finding time to reflect and journal may be beneficial to you and help you deal with your emotions. 9. Reading the Bible, particularly Psalms, can be beneficial. Finding a good devotional book and setting aside a daily quiet time for prayer and meditation will be advantageous for your grief journey. 10. ULTIMATE TIP: Skip the elf, the reindeer, and the tree, and remember the real meaning of Christmas and celebrate Jesus' birthday, and remember that because of his sacrifice that we will be united again for eternity. "Praise the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort. He comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any kind of affliction, through the comfort we ourselves receive from God." 2 Corinthians 1:3-4

Melissa Wood courageously shares many personal trials that she has endured and the importance of living a life deeply rooted in faith. Reflecting on scripture, and her personal experiences, she proposes a four-step plan in preparing yourself for the storms of life. "Consider it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come at you from all sides. You know under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors. So don't try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way." James 1:2-4 MSG "My prayer for you is that you come to live deeply rooted in your faith as I have learned to do. Take the time now, while the storm is at bay, to plan, prepare and practice for your next storm. Build your faith in the one, who when you seek him, will answer you and deliver you, from all your fears. Jesus Christ is our living hope!" -Melissa Wood Thank you, Melissa, for sharing this beautiful testimony!
While we do not worship angels, or pray to angels, their work serves as an important part of God's Divine plan. Angels are spiritual beings created by God who help execute His work on Earth. They bring messages, protect God's people, offer encouragement, give guidance, bring punishment, patrol the Earth, and fight forces of evil. There are both good and evil angels, but because evil angels are allied with Satan, they have considerably less power and authority than good angels. Eventually, the main role of the good angels will be to offer continuous praise to God. In this episode, I share a few of the testimonies that I have received from my personal friends and guests, and a few favorites from specific texts (see sources below). Believers, BE ENCOURAGED! Angels are real and they are fighting for us in the spiritual realm. All glory to God! "For He will command His angels concerning you, to guard you in all your ways." Psalm 91:11 NIV Sources: * The Living Bible Life Application Study Bible NIV Angels by Billy Graham * 7 Lessons From Heaven by Dr. Mary C Neal, M.D. * Angels, Miracles, and Heavenly Encounters by James Stuart Bell
In January of 2015, Heather was en route to serve at her church when her vehicle was struck by a large SUV. She sustained life-threatening injuries and was taken emergently for surgery with a severe traumatic brain injury. The physicians worked diligently but did not see much hope for survival, or any possibility of life beyond a vegetative state.
Heather's family and church surrounded her with prayer. There were friends that lined the hallways to pray. The entire ICU (Intensive Care Unit) was filled with support, food, and love from this Hillsong NY/NJ church family. Heather's family stayed strong and expectant for a miracle.
In this episode, Heather shares MULTIPLE miracles that occurred, not only for her but for other patients and families receiving prayer during this time. I am truly blessed to share this miraculous testimony!
Isaiah 54:17 "No weapon formed against thee shall prosper." KJV
"The love of God is overwhelming! It's so much bigger than what we can even imagine. He loves ALL of us and He wants each of us to be healed. If something bad happens, don't imagine that He would ever want that for you. We have an enemy, but God's love is all we need to survive." - Heather Strazza
Thank you, Heather, for sharing this beautiful testimony of God's healing power, and the miracle of prayer!

Randy Halcomb shares his very personal story about a test he experienced from God. Randy and his wife Darlene were young and starting their lives together. While they were very happy in the modest trailer they lived in, they had no idea the journey ahead would be marked by tremendous financial success. At the height of their wealth, Randy felt God was clearly asking him to sell everything and get out of his highly profitable business. This choice seemed completely irrational to everyone. The unfolding of events, the way God so clearly showed Randy what he was to do, is miraculous! The blessing from God to follow is also spectacular!
God often calls us to things that we don't expect, at a time that we don't expect.

Your best days could still be before you."
Lance Malone was 24 and loving his life in Atlanta when he was diagnosed with acute-on-chronic liver disease, which is associated with organ failure and high short-term mortality.
His liver disease progressed quickly, within just a few months. In his lowest moments, the Doctors informed him he was possibly down to his last hours. Lance poured his heart out to God, "Why?" Miraculously, God answered Lance, making him a promise... that He kept.
The miracle of the promise was just one piece of this story. While Lance experienced lots of bumps in his road to transplant and healing, there were pieces of his recovery that the nurses and doctors considered miraculous as well.
Lance is presently residing in Cleveland. He is the Founder and Visionary for Become Better Ministries, and the Manager of HIV Services at Care Alliance Health Center. He is also a Motivational speaker and Prophetic teacher.
"Have FAITH! Whether your situation is medical, or financial, you've got to trust God when you can't trace Him, and truly you will see that He WILL provide. Your circumstance is not too small for the Lord to intervene. He is still in the miracle making business, and yours is on the way!" -Lance Malone
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7

Its a complete miracle that this beautiful young lady was once referred to hospice and given no hope, and is now the picture of health.
Alyona was only 22 and newly married when she was told she needed to consult with a gynecological oncologist for the mass in her abdomen. What followed those next few years was a journey she could not have imagined.
At her most critical point, she was down to just 80 pounds and suffering from stage 3B ovarian cancer and class IV heart failure, not a candidate for heart transplant. The physicians saw no other options and referred her to hospice.
Tune in and listen to her beautiful testimony of faith and healing! It's simply extraordinary!
"This world, and everything in it, comes and goes. The one constant is our God. Make your faith a priority and lean on Him." Alyona Goncharov
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you."
Matthew 7:7 NIV
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."
Romans 8:28
Thank you Alyona, for sharing your personal testimony with me! I am blessed to have met you!

Ms. Char Howard shares her very personal story of traumatic events and loss that spiraled her into an addiction to food. At her lowest point she finds herself wheelchair-bound, oxygen dependent, on multiple medications, and defeated, when she calls out to God to take her life...or save it?
"True healing of the mind, body, and spirit only comes through Jesus Christ." - Charlya Howard
The vision God gave her in those moments was the catalyst for something miraculous.
Today, Char is FREE from her wheelchair and oxygen. She is FREE from her addiction. She is filled with peace, joy, and love for God. With a background in mental health nursing, she is passionate about serving others and helping them find healing. She is employed at the Healing Care Counseling Center as their Administrative Assistant and scheduler, and she is planning to pursue her Pastoral license. She visits Weight Watchers to inspire others, and credits them with some of her successful habits. However, she primarily teaches the Daniel Plan as it incorporates faith, and is where her heart lies.
Told by her physicians that she would never walk again, Char has now has walked a 5k, 10k, and will walk in her first 1/2 marathon in June. She shares that her MRI still reveals a major spinal cord injury, and she does still have days where she experiences pain, yet her faith helps her to sustain her through those times. Her medications have decreased from over 40 to 7! What an inspiration!
"They begged him to let the sick touch at least the fringe of his robe, and all who touched him were healed."
Matthew 14:36 NLT

Upon being diagnosed with the swine flu, Ken quickly became gravely ill. He was placed in a medically-induced coma for weeks during his treatment, and he suffered multiple serious complications that could have easily taken his life.
At the most critical point of his hospitalization, his physicians reported that he only had a 5% chance of survival. His blood pressure dropped precipitously, his family prayed, and he experienced something extraordinary.
"God's message to me was, 'I love you more than you will ever, ever know, and I have you in my right hand.' It brings tears to your eyes, the feeling of overwhelming love." - Ken Johnson
Millions of people globally are reporting near death experiences. According to John Burke's book, "Imagine Heaven," 1 out of 25 Americans has had a near-death experience. Although scientists have proposed multiple physiologic explanations, these theories fail to fully explain the phenomenon.
How do we interpret these experiences, and more importantly, if they are truly visits to heaven, how does this change our current priorities and the choices we make each day?
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life."

Lindsay Hart was only 21 when she committed to an 18 month mission trip in the jungle of Bolivia.
She was excited and hopeful to share the light of Jesus Christ, and she quickly fell in love with the culture.
Months into the mission experience she encountered something that threatened her life, completely unexpected, and she found herself in some of her darkest moments.
Hear her testimony and how, in surrendering everything to God, that she not only overcame, but she found herself even stronger and more faith filled than ever before!
“God is aware of EACH one of us. He knows us so well, what we are capable of, how far we can be stretched. If we allow ourselves to stretch, to surrender, and go through really dark times, we can find how much lighter and brighter we are going to come out in the end.” - Lindsay Hart
Lindsay, thank you for sharing this experience! You are truly a beautiful person, inside and out, and I am honored to publish your story!
“God is our refuge and strength, an ever present help in trouble.” Psalm 46:1
As a Nurse Anesthetist, I find it difficult to fully express the value of Hospital Chaplains. Many of my patients have received emotional and spiritual support during times of crisis, whether pre-surgery, traumatic events, or during their last moments of life.
Chaplains have also been valuable to comfort hospital employees and patient family members during emotional distress. They comfort a diverse population, all cultures and all faiths at their most vulnerable moments.
"Be open to the extraordinary. Don't get limited and distracted by Earthly activities." -Chaplain David Carl, Senior Executive Director of Spiritual Care, Atrium Health
Chaplain David Carl has a Master of Divinity, and 45 years of experience! His background and his role is very unique, and I was honored to have a chance to spend an hour with him and capture some of his insight and his experiences. See below for what we discussed in our short time together:
[0-6:00] The extraordinary experience which called him to ministry, his unique background, and how he landed at Atrium Health
[7:33] Story of an unexplainable reunion
[14:57] A woman battling cancer is visited by an angel and her two deceased grandmothers with a reassuring message
[17:30] Chaplain Carl discusses "ghosts" on Earth and in the Bible
[21:00] Are we visited by spirits before we die? Are they angels or spirits of actual loved ones?
[21:52] A man in the ICU is visited by an angel with a beautiful message.
[24:43] Death visions. Hospice Chaplains believe we all have them near the end.
[25:25] A man in the process of dying has a dramatic vision that is so powerful the Chaplain and I hold back tears.
[31:39] Have you witnessed people have a negative (HELL) near death experience?
[33:20] End of life "meeting"
[34:00] Chaplain Carl discusses visions vs. hallucinations vs. delusions
[36:41] There are voices that are not from God. Be careful.
[38:00] WHY do some people get the miracle and some do not?
[40:00] Chaplain Carl's final message to the world after 45 years of experience as a Chaplain. Beautiful. Love this.
Thank you, Chaplain Carl, for what you do, and for this time to share such beautiful experiences!
Samantha August shares the story of her experience with a very rare syndrome that took her within days of death— on more than one occasion.
She credits her survival to God, seeing Him move in her life in so many beautiful, and sometimes unexpected ways.
Listen and hear about how her faith equipped her and sustained her for her trial.
"God has a purpose for your life. Look to Him. He will show himself to you in the most unexpected and beautiful ways."
-Samantha August
Sam is now volunteering with the International Foundation for Gastrointestinal Disorders, and she also has plans to speak among several groups in hopes of promoting awareness of this rare syndrome. I love how she is using her trial to help and encourage others (like so many of my other guests)!

Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Denise Hammond was kicked in the head by her horse and thrown 40 feet one morning during her work on her farm. Shortly after, she received her CT results to find not only a severe concussion, but something much more serious, and completely unexpected. The journey that followed over the next 2 years was one of revelation, extensive surgery, complications, and rehabilitation, and an even stronger faith in a God who was with her every step of the way. Listen and hear about how her faith equipped her and sustained her for her trial. "It doesn't matter what your trial is, its significant to God. The key is to bring it to Him, allow Him to carry it. He allows it for a greater purpose." -Denise Hammond

We are often reminded to put our faith in God to find healing. On this episode we hear a testimony from Lynne Holcomb that highlights the necessity for faith in times of crisis. After being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer—one of the deadliest forms of an already lethal disease— Lynne has beaten what could have been a life sentence.
Through the constant reminder of God's grace from family, friends, members of her Church, and even strangers, Lynne has outlived her diagnosis and wants to use her experience to help others.
“Don’t give up. God doesn’t want you to give up.” - Lynne Holcomb
Lynne was in the shape of her life, working as a personal trainer and teaching kickboxing for 25 years when she was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer and given 3-6 months to live.
- After receiving this life sentence, a nurse informed Lynne that faith could get her through the ordeal. Lynne recognized in this moment that the nurse was delivering God’s message of reassurance.
- In the three years since her diagnosis, Lynne has been reminded by her support system of God's ability to heal her. Additionally, she has had her own conversations with Him in which she has found great comfort.
- A clinical trial ended up not only stopping Lynne's cancer from spreading, but actually got rid of her tumors.
Lynne beating stage 4 pancreatic cancer is a reminder that miracles do happen, and she is passionate about sharing her story to remind others of God's ability to heal. Indeed, her own journey was paved with reminders from others of His grace. Though a harrowing experience, Lynne's ordeal should be a story of hope to all who hear it. Even when all odds seem to be stacked against us, God has the power to help us. What must keep fighting, and continue to have faith.

She also strives to highlight the importance of faith to get through life's challenges.
After a traumatic experience, you have to remember to take care of your emotional wounds, as well as your physical ones. It’s easy to experience anger, misery, and resentment, but you have to let those things go if you want to find peace and joy. How do you go about doing this? How do you process and heal the hurt?
On this episode, I reflect on my own experience of forgiveness and share some of the things that have worked for me. Ultimately, forgiveness is a decision.
God draws close to the broken hearted. I share just a few of the examples of how He was there for me in the midst of things, how prayer was an important piece of the healing, and how he used me to bless others even when I didn't see it coming.
Colossians 3:13 " bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive."
In July 2015, what I thought was a pain in my neck, following a chiropractic manual neck adjustment, was actually bilateral vertebral artery dissections and an aneurysm, that could have taken my life. If it wasn’t for a miraculous message I received, I could have experienced a fatal stroke. In this episode, I share the supernatural experience I had, and how it rescued me and deepened my faith.
A flood of urgency washed over me, and I just knew I had to go to the ER. -Julie Hedenborg
Vertebral artery dissections can be fatal. If it weren’t for that feeling I had in my kitchen that made me rush to the ER, I might not be here to share this story.
I believe God saved my life that day. I believe He is bigger than any threat we can possibly face on this Earth.
Isaiah 41:10 "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
One thing we learn is the importance of holding onto God during our darkest times, because that’s where we’ll find strength and healing. On this episode, Evalee Egan shares her incredible story about being diagnosed with one of the rarest cases of cancer with a low chance of survival. She talks about how she put her faith in action, how God melted the cancer away, and why she is so grateful for her life.
I believe in prayer. I believe that God can do anything. He can touch your body and heal, no matter what it is or how far gone it is. -Evalee Egan
Evalee explained how a persistent cough that she thought was just asthma turned out to be a symptom of stage 4 lung cancer. She was turned away from clinical trials because doctors thought she was too far gone. She also shares the moment she felt God touch her, and the wonderful moment the doctors told her she was cancer free.
Evalee also shared on:
- The miracle of people and how they helped her through her illness
- Allowing herself to be used by God to help someone else
- Why she never looked at her scans
Evalee Egan’s story is a powerful testimony of God’s power and a potent reminder that God is able to heal, give us hope, and help us through our struggles. No matter how big a challenge is, if we cling to His word and remember that He is able, there is nothing we can’t overcome.
People don’t often discuss out-of-body experiences, yet so many of us have had them, and I witnessed many first hand while working as a nurse. There was one story that really stuck with me and changed my life at a time I really needed it. On this episode, I share on one man’s miraculous story, how I was lucky enough to witness it, and what it taught me.
Your out-of-body experience has power for somebody else, and it needs to be heard. -Julie Hedenborg
We live in a highly isolated world where depression and suicide are prevalent to a frightening degree. I think one thing that would change this is if people were able to openly and freely discuss the miracles they’ve experienced in their lives. When I witnessed a man who was medically dead for 5 minutes come back and share what he saw, it changed my life and renewed my faith. It’s something I hope this show can do for anybody else who needs it!
