Supernatural Healing Is VERY REAL | Lee Strobel on Miracles Doctors Can’t Explain
Jesus wasn’t just a teacher; he was an exorcist and healer. What does that mean for how we see sickness, the supernatural, and spiritual warfare today?
In this episode of The Dr. Josh Axe Show, I’m joined by investigative journalist and bestselling author Lee Strobel. He is known for his books, "The Case for Christ" and "Seeing the Supernatural," which uncover the truth behind the supernatural. From encounters with angels and demons to scientific evidence for miracles and near-death visions, we’re diving deep into the mysteries of the spiritual world of health.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
Why near-death experiences may offer clues about heaven
The real reason people are drawn to "energy," crystals, and manifestation
How pop culture opens the door to spiritual deception
Whether science supports, or undermines, belief in the supernatural
What the Bible and eyewitnesses say about angels and miracles
