Carson Phillips Ole Eben has a whole book that he wrote. I think he may have actually had an NDE personally. Regardless, NDEs are wild. I think they’re going to slightly shape some aspects of our theology much the same way as when we discovered that there were people living halfway around the globe. I should probably read this


Jarrett Vandiver Yeah it was great, and yes Eben talks about his NDE experience in this book. The last essay is Eben’s rebuttal of physicalist critique of his own story, and it’s worth the whole book itself
