Is It God or Your Brain: The Science Behind Near Death Experiences

from Mormon.ish

On a special Halloween episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon delve into the world of Near Death Experiences, also known as NDEs.Near Death Experiences have taken center stage recently as we have learned more about the many people who claim to have had NDEs and those who have been influenced by them.Julie Row, Thom Harrison and the book, "Visions of Glory," Chad Daybell, the new Angel Studio movie, "Near Death," and more, are drawing a great deal of attention and we felt it was important to learn more. In the last few decades, the phenomenon of NDEs has been studied with increasing interest. We now know more than ever about the physiology of the brain and it's capabilities. When death is near, the brain has mechanisms in place that can influence all the senses, resulting in some incredible experiences. Mormonish Podcast shares our research as we look for the truth behind Near Death Experiences. Is it God? Is it your own brain? Is it something in between? You be the judge.Resources used in this episode“The Afterlife is in our heads: The real meaning of near-death experiences” by Kristin Frenchhttps://nautil.us/the-afterlife-is-in-our-heads-240441/ "Near-death experiences tied to brain activity after death, study says" By Sandee LaMotte, CNNhttps://www.cnn.com/2023/09/14/health/near-death-experience-study-wellness/index.htmlHow to Donate to Mormonish Podcast:We appreciate our Mormonish viewers and listeners so much!

'Ships in a Kitchen 'Ships in a Kitchen Ships in a Kitchen is a podcast created by husband and wife, David & Nicky Bamgbade simply with the aim of encouraging relationships with humour, transparency and Biblical truth based on their own cute yet crazy-ish testimony of love, marriage and unplanned pregnancies! David and Nicky have been married for 15 years and while today their marriage is somewhat great, it hasn't been without it’s own up’s, downs and break downs and break ups!

Like a Virgin iHeartPodcasts A new pop culture podcast with a mix of news, cultural criticism, and comedy through a queer-trans lens, hosted by Fran Tirado and Rose Dommu.Though they are best friends now, Fran and Rose grew up very differently. Fran was a cult-ish, sheltered Christian camp counselor and Rose had a penchant for writing deranged fanfiction. Now they’re both godless heathens taking a look back at the formative classics that popped their cherries and made them who they are.Each week, the show starts off with a breakdown of the week’s pop culture news, then does a deep dive into one cultural object that one of them might be experiencing for the first time. They’ll also invite writers, comedians, activists, and entertainers to help them break it down. Follow @rosedommu and @fransquishco on Instagram and Twitter.
