Near-death Experience Podcast

Continuing Lance Richardson’s account, we share one of the many examples of music in heaven, as will as a discussion about religion and the near-death experience.

While some NDEs have a deeply ethereal, transcendental flavor, giving the listener the sense that heaven is without senses, but that there is nothing but flowing love and intelligence for eternity, others, like Lance’s, provide a picture that is so relatable as to almost seem mortal—albeit beautiful, joyful, and blissful.

Lynnclaire Dennis had a beautiful near-death experience that completely changed her way of looking at life. Despite initially attacking her husband for bringing her back when he revived her, her experience taught her the true meaning of love.

By now, we may understand that there is a grand, overarching plan to our life here on earth, but what about the individual plan each of us have for our own lives? What about our unique life purpose? The NDE samples read in this episode come from Wisdom of Near-Death Experiences, by Dr. Penny Sartori.

These short NDEs, by Rachel, Greg, Sammy, and Delona, all of which lack detail (1 and 2 out of 5 on the detail scale) have some beautifully profound contents. Another illustration that while lack of detail makes the reading less comprehensive, the experience itself is no less remarkable.

While playing in the ocean with her mother, a massive wave washed over them, separating her from her mother. Fighting for air, and unable to surface, Lisa eventually let go of the struggle, and found herself in the most loving light she’d ever experienced. This is her experience.

Do people in the spirit world work? Are there jobs to be done? With the help of Bettie J. Eadie’s book, Embraced by the Light, we get some clues.

How would it be to have all the answers? For a brief time, during her near-death experience, Jean seemed to have them; as she puts it, “the sum total of all ‘knowing’ or wisdom of all people for all time – past, present and future.’

Just for fun today I thought I’d share a few of the first-hand accounts of a few Hollywood celebrities who had near-death experiences. Though there are dozens to be found out there, these are the ones I could find recordings of them giving the account.

After sharing some very insightful thoughts by a listener, we share the experience of Brad, who both drowned as a child and was attacked as an adult. But unique to Brad’s experience, because he was approached before his second experience and asked if he would like to have the experience.

In his near-death experience, David experienced seven levels of heaven.  And while he didn’t give a great deal of detail (perhaps 2/5 on the detail scale), what he does say about them is… well, out of this world. Plus we share a fun little experience of a high schooler who, in a momentary scare, has …

Nanci Danison had a remarkable near-death experience. It involved an overwhelming encounter with the light that seemed to be completely independent of her senses—no vision, no sound, no sensation—but also seemed to involve the deepest part of her nature, which wanted more than anything to become utterly and eternally one (merged) with God. In this …

This near-death experiencer had 2 NDEs, the second of which came after a brutal bullying. But the lessons learned from the experience pointed to nothing but love.

Ned Dougherty had a heart attack, which killed him. Gratefully, he was revived, but upon his return, not only did he talk about heaven (including heavenly beings, the temple of knowledge, and several other amazing things), but he was given many prophecies about what may happen if mankind doesn’t follow the plan laid out before …

You might say Jonathan learned the danger of LSD the hard way—or you could say he learned it’s danger the nicest way possible. He overdosed, and had a near-death experience. To his credit, though, his NDE jumpstarted the life cleanup that helped him stop doing drugs for good.

Christianne’s NDEs are interesting—not just because she had 5 of them, but also because of her manner of telling about them. A bit of a humorist, but not one to give a lot of detail, the account comes out as a sort of hodge-podge of otherworldly experiences. Still, I think it’s worth adding to our …

P. M. H. Atwater is something of a legend in NDE study circles, because she’s written several books on the subject, and speaks on the subject everywhere she goes. And lest you think she’s doing it as some get-rich thing, it was the Light that told her to write three books. At the time she …

Dr. George Rodonaia died. If there’s any question of that fact, consider that he was in the morgue for three days, and didn’t return from death until they began to cut him open in an autopsy. But his memory of those three days is quite remarkable.

In this third and final reading from John Pontius’ book, Visions of Glory, we talk about some interesting aspects of the interplay between the physical and spiritual worlds. ​

In this episode, we share more from John Pontius’ book, Visions of Glory. John Pontius wrote this book on behalf of Spencer, who had the NDEs discussed, after over 50 interviews with Spencer.
