Today’s Star is Jeffrey Long, M.D.

Is there life after death? Radiation oncologist Dr. Jeffrey Long argues that if you look at the scientific evidence, the answer is unequivocally yes.

About the Guest Jeffrey Long, M.D.

Jeffrey Long, M.D. is a leading near-death experience (NDE) researcher. Dr. Long founded the Near Death Experience Research Foundation (www.nderf.org). Over 15 years of research went into Dr. Long’s study of over 4000 near-death experiences presented in his current book God and the Afterlife: The Groundbreaking New Evidence for God and Near-Death Experience.

Portions of the www.nderf.org web site have been posted in 30 different languages. This is leading to increasing awareness that worldwide and across cultural boundaries we all share these types of experiences, and they are similar to a degree that is medically inexplicable. The potential to heighten world understanding is obvious, and very important. Over 4000 NDEs are currently posted on www.nderf.org, making it by far the largest number of NDEs ever studied, and by far the largest number of NDEs publicly accessible in the world.
