When a 105 degree temperature put Amphianda in the hospital, she was just feeling a little off. But after a few moments of delirium, she found herself leaving her body and entering a beautiful landscape.

After a long period of illnesses, surgeries, and finally a seizure resulting in heart -attack, Alma died. Gratefully, she returned. But when she returned, she had a story to share that she just couldn’t keep silent about.

Today we veer off the beaten path a bit. In response to a generous listener, in this episode I discuss a project I’ve been working on for the past couple years to write an album of music intended to reflect the music one might hear in Heaven. The album, albeit incomplete as yet, is called Home. …

After the suicide of his husband, Brandon suffered from PTSD, and a deep depression set in that led him to take his own life—twice. But thank heaven, Brandon returned both times. Brandon is a listener of the show, and called in to share his NDE with us.

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.

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.
