Alan Streett and his book Exploring the Paranormal: Miracles, Magic and the Mysterious

R. Alan Streett returns as our guest in this episode discussing his book Exploring the Paranormal: Miracles, Magic, and the Mysterious (Eerdmans, 2024). Streett is senior research professor emeritus of biblical theology at Criswell College in Dallas, TX.  The book's website description:

A personal exploration of questions surrounding psychic healing, séances, astral projection, and more.

After an injury threatened his chances of signing a professional baseball contract, R. Alan Streett sought help from Olga Worrall, a world-famous psychic healer. This encounter set in motion his lifelong search for the origin and nature of psychic phenomena. Were they natural or supernatural? From God, or from the devil? Were they mentalists’ tricks, or feats of the subconscious mind? Streett invites us to join him in real time as he explores the fascinating world of the paranormal, offering insights into healing, magic, trance channeling, yogic meditation, alternative medicine, astral projection, and the brain’s ability to produce spiritual and mystical experiences. Ultimately Streett enables readers to draw some time-tested and cutting-edge conclusions. Exploring the Paranormal is a helpful guide for all who wish to understand the varied forms of spirituality that are so popular today.
