Sunday Series-Episode 2--Deathbed Visions: A Glimpse Beyond the Veil

Join host Lance Smith in the second episode of the 20-week series on J. Steve Miller's Faith That's Not Blind as we delve into the intriguing phenomenon of deathbed experiences. These profound moments, often involving vivid visions and encounters with deceased loved ones or spiritual guides, challenge the boundaries of scientific understanding and spark profound theological questions.

In this episode, we explore stories, studies, and personal accounts that suggest these experiences might be more than mere hallucinations. From tales of peace and clarity at life's end to studies indicating consistent patterns across cultures, we investigate whether these visions offer a glimpse of an afterlife, a divine presence, or a profound spiritual reality that transcends our material existence.

Tune in as we consider insights from researchers, ponder the implications of these experiences, and question whether they could be keys unlocking deeper truths about life, death, and what lies beyond.
