Ralph Jensen passed beyond the veil after suffering a major heart attack.  During his NDE he saw the life of Jesus.

Ralph learned how precious each of us are to Jesus and God.  One miraculous aspect of Ralph’s experience is that the type of heart attack he had, is nearly always fatal.

Ralph wrote a book, Taught by Christ, about his NDE. Readers report it book has given new purpose to their lives, as well as greater personal self-worth and value. It has even stopped individuals from taking their own lives after making the effort to read it and understand their Savior and his healing power.  

Ralph invites you to share in his extraordinary journey by attending his presentation of his NDE at Utah IANDS.

When she was pregnant with her second child, Stephanie Arnold had a sudden and overwhelming premonition that she would die during the delivery. Though she tried to tell the medical team and her family what was going to happen, neither the doctors nor her loved ones gave her warnings credence. Finding no physical indications that anything was wrong, they attributed her foreboding to hormones and anxiety.

One member of the medical team did take her concerns seriously enough, and made the fateful decision to order extra units of blood “just in case.” Then, during the delivery, Stephanie suffered a rare Amniotic Fluid Embolism. She went into cardiac arrest and flat-lined for 37 seconds. She died. Using the supplementary blood, the medical team revived her, and she remained unconscious for more than six days.

After months of recovery, Stephanie began to remember details of her experience, details she knew because she had witnessed the entire dramatic event, including her death, from outside her body—beside other spirits that were with her. In this remarkable true story, Stephanie will share her NDE, and the spiritual insights she learned from it. We are not alone and have more loving help than we can imagine.

Her book, 37 Seconds, chronicles her story.

Bridget was adopted when she was six months old. She always felt unworthy and a little broken. Even growing up in an amazing home, that feeling of unworthiness made her overcompensate. She worked too many hours while attending college, and it began to wear on her body. Everything took an enormous toll.  In her 20s, Bridget was rushed into emergency surgery and started on several intravenous antibiotics. While in the hospital, she had a near-death experience, in which Bridget was given instructions and spiritual knowledge about how to move forward with a changed life. The physical change was miraculous, but even more so, her mental and spiritual change. Bridget could see herself and everyone she came in contact with across the world from a place of love.

We invite you to come in person and hear Bridget’s remarkable story.  Bridget is a New York Times best-selling author. She also helps people with NDEs and other significant life experiences tell their own stories in the best way possible, in book form.

The Utah IANDS presenter this Friday, February 23 at 7 PM will be Travis Shreeve. Travis believed that there was little chance that he would be exposed to Covid-19 and so hesitated to be vaccinated. As fate would have it, he contracted Covid-19, was hospitalized and at death’s door had an NDE. Travis will tell us what he saw and experienced on the other side, and what he learned. It’s a message of love and the bonds of family.

Jeff Olsen is a bestselling author and inspires audiences across the country with his intriguing personal story of perseverance and inner strength. In 1997, Jeff experienced a horrific automobile accident which inflicted multiple life-threatening injuries, including crushing both his legs. His left leg was amputated above the knee. The most devastating outcome of the accident was the loss of his wife and youngest son, both killed instantly. At that time, Jeff had a profound Near-Death Experience, which deepened his spirituality and gave him insights and gifts not common in today’s world. He found the courage to carry on, heal, care for his living son, and eventually thrive in his career and community contributions. Jeff has since remarried and adopted two more boys.

Understanding death, loss, and forgiveness after such a profound tragedy is a lifelong journey.  Jeff’s latest book “Where Are You” is a collaborative father-son work telling his son’s experience of losing half his family. Jeff has also authored, “Knowing”, an extension and completion of “I Knew Their Hearts” and “Beyond Mile Marker 80”. Join us for deeper insights.

Bonni J. Burrows will be joining us this Friday.   Bonni was born on a small, backwoods farm in the Eastern United States at the end of WWII. On the farm, she, her sisters and two older brothers grew up without indoor plumbing, electricity, or phone. Water was carried from a spring in a galvanized bucket and food was cooked on a wood stove, winter and summer. Her father plowed the fields with a mule or horse and her mother washed the family’s clothes on a washboard. The children had very little social interaction outside the family until they were six or seven years old and could go to school. Religious teachings were very fundamental.

In 1975, Bonni was a young mother, living on a small farm, expecting her third child. Complications six months into that pregnancy took her, first to the hospital and then, on the greatest journey of her life—a Love-permeated journey so incredible she would have chosen to abandon her beloved family to remain in that realm, her true home—Our True Home.

Bonni will tell you of consciously leaving the body and traveling to visit her young sons before exiting this world, entering the light and being met on the other side by family, loved ones and her guardian angels. There she met her stillborn sister for the first time, many unborn spirits and a very special soul-mate. This is a story of reunion, forgiveness, and love more powerful than anything known this side of the veil.

She will tell you about her life review, visiting other worlds, being taught things only dreamed about on Earth-plane and truths so complete and crystal clear that we don’t have words for them.

The November 24th meeting of IANDS will begin at 7PM Salt Lake County Commission hearing Room at the County Government Center, north building located at 2001 South State, SLC.   We meet the fourth Friday of each month except December.  Bring a friend as meetings are free of charge.
