In your church or in your business.

And now your host, Carrie Newhoff.

Well, hey everybody and welcome to the podcast.

My name is Carrie Newhoff. and I hope our time together today

helps you lead like never before. I'm super excited about today's guest. His name is John Burke and

maybe you know him because he leads a very effective like large church in Austin, Texas, which is just a fascinating city, very different than most of Texas, and he's had a tremendous ministry there over the last decade but I first

ran into him as an author ten years ago when he released a book called No Perfect

People Allowed. Fantastic and then last year one of his staff members Kenny Connolly put a book of his his new book in my hand

And I started reading it because I tell you about it when I'm sitting down with John but I was doing the series on the supernatural I could not put it down and

he matches up near-death experiences with scripture and it's fascinating so

fascinating in fact that I'm involved with the TV show up here in Canada called

100 Huntley Street which you can follow at 100 Huntley.com and John and I are going to

hang out next month in Canada and we're going to like film a bunch of episodes of the TV show and it's just it's just fascinating so I'll tell you it just as a guy who's preached about heaven for years it just gave me insight into heaven that I thought I'd never really

ever find until I got to heaven.

So I think you'll find the conversation fascinating.

If you read the book, you'll find it interesting. If you haven't read the book you'll find it interesting if you haven't read the

book you'll still find it really really cool so and plus John's a great guy he's

just fun to hang out with so I was really glad rarely do I reach out and just

you know say to an author cold call like we'd never met before.

Hey would you be on my show but he's like yep no problem. So that was a lot of fun.
