Summary

TBH 398

9/11. He saw a jet coming right for his office. The wing went through his window. Fire was everywhere as he cried out, "Lord, take over!"

---------

This Christmas week episode is truly a gift. I'm joined by kindred spirit and author Mark Ellis, whose book When Kingdom Light Shines mirrors the heart of the Touched by Heaven podcast--60 powerful stories of divine intervention, angels, near-death experiences, and unmistakable encounters with God.

Mark shares several unforgettable stories, including a man who survived the impact zone in the second tower on 9/11, and an astronaut whose life was transformed when he encountered Jesus--while walking on the moon.

If you're looking for hope, wonder, or a last-minute Christmas gift, this episode (and Mark's book) delivers.
