Summary
What would you do if a doctor told you that you only had two years to live? In this episode, John Burke interviews Mike Olsen, who faced that exact reality. After receiving what felt like a two-year notice, Mike began living with new urgency and clarity - only to later actually die, experience a profound near-death encounter, and return with life-altering insight. In this powerful conversation, Mike shares what his NDE revealed about suffering, trials, fear, purpose, and how God uses even our darkest moments for transformation. If you are walking through hardship, illness, loss, or uncertainty - this episode will deeply encourage you.
