In this episode of Imagine Heaven, John Burke sits down with investigative journalist Billy Hallowell to explore the evidence behind supernatural encounters, spiritual warfare, and the unseen realm.

From documented cases to personal investigations, Billy shares what he’s uncovered about how angels and demons may be interacting with people today - and what that could mean for your life.

Are these beings real? And if so…how close are they?

What if non-speaking autistic individuals aren’t “trapped”… but experiencing something far beyond what we can see?

Pastor Joe Infranco joins John Burke to reveal stunning parallels between Near-Death Experiences (NDEs) and what autistic non-speakers are now communicating through spelling.

These individuals—once thought unable to express themselves—are describing encounters with the same realities reported in Imagine Heaven:

•  A “mysterious hill” - Encounters with spiritual beings
•  Overwhelming peace, love, and clarity
•  Verifiable details that raise serious questions

Why are their accounts so consistent with NDEs… even though they’ve never died? Is this a deeper level of spiritual awareness?
Or a hidden truth we’re just beginning to understand?

This conversation also builds on ideas explored in the viral The Telepathy Tapes—but introduces a perspective many believe has been overlooked.

At just 20 years old, Gabe Poirot thought he understood God. He had been to Bible college. He believed in Jesus. Millions were already watching him teach about faith online.

But everything changed in an instant. 

After a 30 mph crash on a motorized skateboard, Gabe suffered a traumatic brain injury that cracked open his skull - and led to a life-altering near-death experience. 

What he encountered wasn’t what he expected.

In this powerful episode, Gabe and John share:

• What he saw and experienced beyond this life
• The reality of God in a way he had never known before
• The four distinct loves of God and how they apply to YOU
• How this moment completely transformed his faith

This conversation will challenge what you think you know about God, and invite you into something deeper.

Joe Joe Morris grew up in an extremely strict religious environment that gave him a harsh and fearful view of God. Raised within Mennonite and Hutterite communities, his faith was built on rules, judgment, and shame.

But everything changed the day he nearly died.

During a powerful near-death experience, Joe Joe says he encountered God in the throne room of heaven - and the God he met was nothing like the one he thought he knew.

In this powerful conversation, John Burke talks with Joe Joe about the difference between religion and relationship, and how encountering God's love completely transformed his life. 

If you've ever struggled with religion, felt burned by legalism, or wondered what God is really like, Joe Joe's story may change how you see faith.

What would you do if a doctor told you that you only had two years to live?

In this episode, John Burke interviews Mike Olsen, who faced that exact reality.

After receiving what felt like a two-year notice, Mike began living with new urgency and clarity - only to later actually die, experience a profound near-death encounter, and return with life-altering insight. 

In this powerful conversation, Mike shares what his NDE revealed about suffering, trials, fear, purpose, and how God uses even our darkest moments for transformation.

If you are walking through hardship, illness, loss, or uncertainty - this episode will deeply encourage you.

Mike Lewis lived for years under the weight of horrific things that had been done to him - and what he had done to others. Shaped by childhood trauma, buried shame, and a constant sense of condemnation, he believed God could only be disappointed, if not disgusted, by who he had become.

Then, in a near-death experience, he met Jesus face to face and everything changed.

Brian Dickinson is the only person in history to solo summit Mount Everest and make it back alive after going completely blind.

During his descent from the top of the world, Brian lost his sight, faced certain death, and encountered a Presence that changed the course of his descent.

This is not just a survival story - it’s a powerful testimony of faith, surrender, and the Presence of God in our helplessness.

Do you have a guardian angel? What are angels really like - and what role do they play in our lives?

In this special audio-only episode, John Burke shares four powerful angelic encounters told by near-death experiencers he has interviewed over the years.

These firsthand stories reveal the many ways God uses His angels to guide, protect, and comfort us - often in moments we never even realize. From announcing and watching over the first Christmas to quietly guarding our lives today, angels remain deeply involved in God’s work and in your story.

This audio was originally recorded for The Unfolding Podcast, where you can hear more angel stories throughout the Christmas season.

What if you died… met God… saw Heaven… and then woke up believing it was 1969? That’s exactly what happened to Doug Knake.

One moment, Doug was slipping into darkness, chased by terrifying beings that looked like silhouettes made of fire. The next, a presence filled everything around him — powerful, peaceful, unmistakably God — saying, “Do not be afraid. I am with you.”

In an instant, he was lifted into a world bursting with color, a city bustling with life, streets and buildings he couldn’t describe. A place so alive he didn’t want to leave. God showed him the effect of all his choices, then told him he had a purpose still to fulfill on earth. But God wasn’t finished.

He sent Doug back to his body — and Doug woke up in 2006 with no memories of the past 30+ years. Not his wife. Not his job. Not even the existence of modern technology. He remembered Heaven… but not his own life.

This is one of the most shocking and moving NDE stories we’ve ever shared — a real-life “50 First Dates” journey of love, loss, identity, and the presence of God that never left and redeemed it all with love.
