Touched by Heaven - Everyday Encounters with God
“When my father was seeing another woman, God allowed my mother to hear everything my dad said or even thought.” ---------- Hi! Trapper Jack here. Movie watching has led to our topic this week. The music that has bubbled up in my head comes from the movie Superman with Christopher Reeve. It's a particular piece of music that plays while Superman is taking Lois Lane on a flight over Metropolis. We hear her thoughts. As she wonders, 'Can you read my mind? 'I'm holding hands with a god.' Spiritualized, the scene leads us to the reality that God is always reading our minds. If you...
info_outline PROPHETIC: Is This Why Trump's Life Was Saved? - TBH 342Touched by Heaven - Everyday Encounters with God
What happens when an irresistible force meets an immovable object? They pass through each other. Here, the Trump prophecy of 60 weeks ago passes through the 'why' he was saved. ---------- Hi! Trapper Jack here. I said some crazy prophetic type of stuff 60 plus weeks ago in episode 280. The podcast mentioned how the music that bubbles up in my head led me to the possibility of an assassination of Donald Trump, but divine intervention would lead to an election victory. I kept wondering in that episode what all the little puzzle pieces might mean. Some of you have been wondering if I was...
info_outline Butterfly Kisses - The Pursuit of Childlike Innocence - TBH 341Touched by Heaven - Everyday Encounters with God
"We have to remember what Jesus said, ‘Unless we are like a child, we cannot enter into heaven.’” ---------- I literally just walked our daughter, Carolyn, down the aisle to her wonderful new husband, Daniel. My wife, Elizabeth, and I were just reflecting on a particular Sunday morning, five years ago, while we were headed home from Sunday mass. There was a song playing in my head, ‘For a man shall leave his mother, and a woman shall leave her home.’ It’s called The Wedding Song. When we arrived home, our daughter Carolyn was waiting for us. Carolyn said, 'You know how I've...
info_outline Which Crowd are You Hanging With? - TBH 340Touched by Heaven - Everyday Encounters with God
The Virgin has told us that the chastisement for the world is coming, as the world is not changing. The cup is filling up ~ Garabandal visionaries ---------- Hi! Trapper Jack here. Have you ever pondered the gospel where Jesus has locked up the house that is headed for heaven. In this parable, the crowd arrives and says, ‘open up,’ but Jesus says, ‘I do not know you. Go away you evil doers.’ You and I assume that we are inside the house, right? Well, that crowd had the same assumption. That big crowd had apparently never figured something out. Maybe I’ve missed something. In...
info_outline GHOSTBUSTER - Real Stories with Ghost-Whisperer Maryann Winkowski - TBH 339Touched by Heaven - Everyday Encounters with God
“The caller on my radio show said that she always felt a presence in the car on her way into work. Maryann then said, ‘Yes, he’s in the back seat. He’s looking at your blue butterfly clip that holds your ponytail.’ The caller let out a huge scream!” ---------- I wasn’t sure if I believed in ghosts or not. Then, I met Maryann. For 25 consecutive Halloween mornings, Maryann Winkowski, who inspired the CBS television hit series Ghost Whisperer, would join me on the radio. We would take calls from listeners who believed they had a ghost in their house. Many did. I would push...
info_outline You Never Wait Alone - TBH 338Touched by Heaven - Everyday Encounters with God
I had some knock down drag out arguments with God. ‘Where’s my husband? Everyone else is married.’ That’s when I had two dreams about my future husband. ---------- Hi! Trapper Jack here. I remember reading a much-publicized Newsweek article, almost 20 years ago, that said single women over 40 were more likely to be killed by a terrorist then to find a mate. Cheery thought, yes? Fortunately, it was nonsense, but caught on as a hapless truth of a middle-aged life. Question… Did you pray to have God provide your spouse? Did you pray after marrying the ‘wrong’ one?...
info_outline How Did a Bone Chip from an Apostle Heal Rich? - TBH 337Touched by Heaven - Everyday Encounters with God
"As soon as I turned the corner and saw it behind the glass, the hair stood up on the back of my neck and I felt this incredible warmth. It was like ‘whoa!’" ---------- Hi! Trapper Jack here. As I think about it, it’s really a rather simple story. Rich wanted something. He prayed for it. He got it. Did Rich pray directly to anyone of the three in the Trinity? No. The one he approached for his intercessory prayer happens to be the one known as the Saint of impossible causes. Here, God is awakening us to a basic truth. However you approach God, He is listening. In this case, it...
info_outline The Warning - a Preview of Your Upcoming 15 Minutes with God - TBH 336Touched by Heaven - Everyday Encounters with God
Hi! Trapper Jack here. Many of our podcast guests have included their own Medjugorje stories of repentance, conversion, miraculous healings, and an overall turning back to the will of God. It is even more remarkable how many of these same guests have also experienced what is known as the warning, or the illumination of conscience. This is a period of several minutes where every sin ever committed is revealed. You see how God sees the present state of your soul. This is a moment that many believe we will all be sharing soon. The topic of the Warning leads us to another Marian shrine in...
info_outline What If... Earth is the Center of the Universe? - TBH 335Touched by Heaven - Everyday Encounters with God
Hi! Trapper Jack here. Did you know there is a cosmology crisis? I thought those were the people who do hair and makeup. I have a couple of links here in the show notes to videos that speak to this crisis. There is enough evidence to believe that God has placed us in the middle of the entire universe. Doesn’t that just sound crazy! Listen to my explanation, then take a look, and listen to those brainiacs who actually understand this stuff. It’s truly fascinating! After that, Matt and Veronica join me for an interesting look at a recent dream Veronica had. If it’s prophetic, it’s a...
info_outline Three Drowning Seminarians Saved by Real Angels - TBH 333Touched by Heaven - Everyday Encounters with God
Hi! Trapper Jack here. Spoiler alert. In this podcast episode, we have three seminarians telling the exact same story of being young, strong swimmers, plunging into the ocean and being carried out to a watery grave by a strong riptide. If this sounds a bit familiar, the Holy Spirit is going to build on this recent topic. In all three drowning seminarian stories, frantic prayers were prayed, and divinely sent angels changed the course of history. God intervened in order that these three men in formation became Fr. John, Fr. Michael, and Fr. Paul. All will swear that they were saved...
info_outlineGerard Long died of a heart attack, for thirty minutes. “The doctors expected to find the brain activity of cabbage,” said Gerard.
At 1 AM, Gerard and some buddies were streaming a World Cup rugby game between England and New Zealand. Suddenly, excited by a goal, Gerard went down. For half an hour, Gerard Long was lifeless.
Our brains may be able to survive 5-6 minutes without blood flow, but never 30 minutes. How had Gerard survived? How were his mental capabilities not damaged? Was God saving Gerard for a special purpose?
Enjoy the podcast!
