Episode 3: Glimpses of Eternity by Raymond Moody, M.D.

When a colleague tells Dr. Raymond Moody about witnessing first-hand a death experience with her mother, the author sets out to learn more about shared death experiences. Dr. Moody, who coined the term "near death experience," writes that while skeptics might scoff at a near-death vision experienced by one person, it's not so easy to pass off an experience where one or more individuals witness the same thing. The author tells us that shared death experiences might just offer a level of proof that a heavenly plane exists.

Episode 2: Life After Life by Raymond Moody, M.D.

Although people have been experiencing near-death visions for millennia, it was Dr. Raymond Moody who coined the term, near-death experience (NDE) in the mid 1970s. In his bestselling book, Life After Life, Dr. Moody investigates these phenomena and shares vivid NDE accounts that range from meeting deceased relatives and beings of light to participating in panoramic life reviews. Learn more about this classic book that has become part of a growing body of evidence that consciousness survives physical death.

The Afterlife Explorers Book Club, Episode 1: A Brief Introduction

An overview of the Afterlife Explorers Book Club with host and literary curator Bill Gleeson. This enlightening podcast examines books by physicians, scientists and scholars who are contributing to an ever-increasing body of evidence that our consciousness survives physical death. More specifically, there is a spiritual afterlife; there are people on the earth plane (called mediums) who are able to communicate with discarnate spirits and who serve as a bridge between our two worlds; and we have lived many physical lives.
