What happens when we die? NT Wright on the Afterlife and NDEs
Playback speed
Are near-death experiences real? Do they give us a glimpse of the afterlife, or should we approach them with caution? What does it mean to live faithfully as a Christian? And who really has the authority to forgive sin— the individual believer, the priest or the church?
In this episode of Ask NT Wright Anything, NT Wright and Mike Bird explore these listener questions, tackling the theology of near-death experiences and whether these experiences point to an afterlife, discussing the calling of all of us in our everyday Christian lives and fields of work, and the power and limits of forgiveness in the church.
