What Happens When You Die?

Philosophy and Theology

The Soul and Near-Death Experiences

What happens when you die? In this episode of the Table Podcast, my friend Kymberli Cook interviews me, along with Gary Habermas and Daniel Hill about near-death experiences and evidence for the soul. We focus on the intermediate state and a theology of the afterlife.

I was especially honored to talk about near-death experiences alongside Gary, as I've appreciated his work in this area since I first heard him speak during my time in the apologetics program at Biola University.
