In this episode Dr. Oord engages with the new little book from Ian Todd entitled Veridical-Experiential Theology (VET): Christianity that takes 'extraordinary' evidence seriously.
In the book, author Ian Todd explores three areas of evidence are considered: near-death experiences (including out-of-body experiences), reincarnation and miraculous healings. The result is that VET is neither theologically conservative/fundamental nor ultra-liberal but is compatible with progressive theologies such as Open and Relational Theology.
