Send us a text Remember that crazy guy with the "End Times" warning blasted from a bullhorn on college campuses? I do. At Indiana University we called him Mad Max. Well, after all this time -- geez, maybe the guy was legit. It's a crazy world out there and no matter what side of the fence you sit on -- liberal/conservative, religious/spiritual, believer/skeptic ... you can't deny we are undergoing either pure chaos or a predetermined destiny. On this episode we talk solar eclipse, CERN, cicadas, and how/if it all ties into biblical prophecy. Take a listen and decide for yourself. After all, we all have free will. BISHOP LARRY RAGLAND Larry Ragland has been serving in pastoral and church ministry for more than 30 years. He is an author and public speaker. Alongside his wife Sandy and their two daughters, he planted Solid Rock Church in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1994. Together they have pastored the same church since its founding. Larry is known throughout the world through his television program “The Big Picture” and the Internet Video program by the same name. Bishop Larry travels the nation and the world, equipping churches, ministers, and leaders for this strategic moment in the Kingdom. Larry has two podcasts – “The Big Picture” and “The Remnant Leadership Podcast.” Larry’s book, “I See Greatness In You,” is literally shifting a culture. It is a movement. It is Larry’s purpose in life to help others “unlock” the hidden potential within them. It is there, but most need someone else to help us “pull it out.” His book, and his speaking, will do just that. Websites LarryRagland.comFacebookPodcastRumbleYouTubeOpening music from Zapsplat.com.

Send us a text "I am not afraid of death. I just don't want to be there when it happens." Woody Allen Tonight's episode is literally a trip. You may have heard about Near Death Experiences (NDEs), but what about Shared Death Experiences (SDEs)? Dr. Scott Taylor has not only had an SDE (a surreal experience of sharing a loved one's death with them, without actually dying); after decades of research Scott has also found a method to visit the Afterlife while we are still breathing. Turns out it is easier than astral projection and less final than death itself. You won't want to miss this episode! ABOUT DR. SCOTT TAYLOR Dr. Scott Taylor is the President of the Expanded Awareness Institute (EAI). EAI helps people interested in near-death and shared death experiences explore what that experience means to them and to our culture as a whole. Scott’s gift is the ability to make the exploration of the nonphysical universe accessible to the curious. Scott is also author and voice of six best-selling CDs of guided meditations on near-death experiences in his Into the Light series (which can be purchased on his website). He is a spiritual teacher, speaker and researcher on near-death experiences.
