Résumé : |
Books about near-death experiences top the New York Times bestseller charts. Movies are made about alleged encounters with UFOs and alien beings. Sociologists report millions of people experiencing ESP. Doctors and businesspeople look to Eastern meditation and healing techniques.
The beliefs and practices flowing out of such experiences captivate popular culture. Sometimes they look and sound like Christianity or even— with their dramatic stories—“new and improved” Christianity. So what are Christians to make of such phenomena? In Testing the Spirits, Elizabeth Hillstrom draws on biblical principles and the latest in brain science for faithful and accurate discernment. |
