Lee Strobel Changes Tune on Near-Death Experiences in New Film <em>Case for Heaven</em>

Apologist and author Lee Strobel once was a skeptic of near-death experiences. No more. The author of such bestsellers as The Case for Christ, Strobel said he changed his mind on the validity of near-death experiences due to their ability – at least in some cases – to be corroborated.

I have thought deeply about what happens when we leave this life and enter the next one. Here is what has brought endless comfort to me: There is a Heaven, and Jesus has made a way for us all to go there.

We Must Pray for Those We Know Who Do Not Believe in God, Jesus

I am praying that today’s article will be a catalyst for us to pray more passionately for those we know who, to our knowledge, do not have a saving relationship with Jesus. I am praying that we will then respond to our prayers by sharing our faith more diligently, winsomely, and courageously with them.
