pastor john burke examined 1,000 stories of near-death experiences. joining me now pastor john burke of the gateway church in austin, texas. the author of the book "imagine heaven." welcome to you tonight. >> well, thank you, thanks for having me on. >> what is it that you analyzed 1,000 near-death experiences. what did you find? >> well, it's fascinating because, you know, the hope that is christmas, that we look for in christmas, i believe really god's greate esest gift that hee at christmas was the hope of heaven. what i found was really hard-hitting evidence that this hope is real, that it's not just a pipe dream. there is something coming after this where finally there really will be peace and the joy that, you know, that we hear promised but gosh, we look around the world and there isn't much. >> from talking to these people, what do they say that heaven looks like? >> well, so what i do is i put together the commonalities and show how it really reveals the heaven in the bible. but they talk about it in very pragmatic terms. like they talk about

john burke. you can find out all about him on in the arena.com. >> i will attack the [ bleep ] of you saying we should accept everybody for who they are. they're absolutely right. we should. when i look at somebody who is overweight i find that utterly repulsive and disgusting t shows a lack of self discipline. >> i can get your point but there are people quite comfortable eating what they want to eat and looking k and they feel beautiful in their own skin. >> for some people this tough love approach works. >> some people may hear what he's saying and say, i agree with him. >> at the same time though people who have maybe body image problems dealing with self esteem problems they hear this and probably feel judged. >> you can make a point without being -- this is generallyizing that everyone who is overweight is lazy. that's not fair. >> this is not a john burke saying hey [ bleep ] you're disgusting yada yada yada. understand whats it that you are doing to your children as well as your own life

final question, do you believe in life after death in accounts like we discussed with john burke? face book.com. thanks for watching, everyone. i'm megyn kelly. this is "the kelly file." good night. >>> tonight -- >> we need new and great leadership. >> donald trump continues to dominate the polls as a large majority of republican voters think he'll win the general election. the one and only mark steyn is here tonight with reaction. then just days after a new york city police officer was gunned down, quentin tarantino reportedly calls cops murderers at an anti-police rally. >> i have to call the murderers the murderers. and i have to call the murders the murders. >> former new york city police commissioner ray kelly and sheriff david clark are here to respond.

and this is called "imagine heaven" by john burk. let's hope you're right. with passion. but i keep it growing by making every dollar count. that's why i have the spark cash card from capital one. i earn unlimited 2% cash back on everything i buy for my studio. ♪ and that unlimited 2% cash back from spark means thousands of dollars each year going back into my business... that's huge for my bottom line. what's in your wallet? vo: it happens so often, you almost get used to it. i'd like to make a dep-- we got this. vo: which is why being put first takes some getting used to. ♪ nationwide is on your side nationwide is the exclusive insurance partner of plenti. the wolf was huffing and puffing. like you do sometimes, grandpa? well, when you have copd, it can be hard to breathe. it can be hard to get air out, which can make it hard to get air in. so i talked to my doctor. she said... symbicort could help you breathe better, starting within 5 minutes. symbicort doesn't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden symptoms. symbicort helps provide significant improvement of your lun

i disagree -- john burke says in the second inaugural, meaning disappears completely and all we have is indeterminacy in ambiguity. i don't think he revels in ambiguity the way hawthorne does. i disagree with that, but i think he does know about uncertainty. then you avoid -- ambiguity combined with a sense of vision and morality and ethics, that's very hard to achieve for a politician and political leaders. it got us into a lot of danger in the 20th century and 21st century because people don't generally have that kind of vision. any other questions? >> what became of the booth emily acting careers? >> admin booth actually became superduper famous. admin booth was -- admin -- ed mund booth, he was really great. i think was a much better actor than john wilkes booth. others in the family trickled out, he owned any theaters he was a manager and actor and he was really great. he was never very proud of his brother at all and they disagreed so radically as his sister asia loved john wilkes booth so much. she wrote a defensive memoir and always loved john wilkes booth more than anybody.

after that comment and his letter to the john burkes society disparaging dr. king, he had to apologize to his widow for the comments he made. right before teeing off the whites only golf course. ronald reagan did ultimately sign the legislation that created the martin luther king holiday. it is often forgotten now how reluctant he was at the time to do it. >> it's official now, the dream of his family, friends, and followers when president reagan, not an enthusiastic supporter of the bill, signed the bill to make it a holiday to remember martin luther king jr. >> there was a under lying tension in the white house. today, mr. reagan did not repeat his recent statements that raised the possibility that he was a communist sympathizer. >> traces of bigotry still mar america. so each year on martin king day, let's recall dr. king and rededicate ourselves to the commandments that he sought to live every day. they discussed the king holiday and his role in it. >> weird stuff happens in the political arena. i'm just glad we got that bill signed. >> maybe that's what t

deirdre: dan shaffer, john burke with me there. staying with politics, the house republicans officially nominating wisconsin congressman paul ryan to replace john boehner as speaker. peter barnes back with me as promised. is he going to get the necessary 218 votes from the floor? >> reporter: we will see, deirdre, in a bit of embarrassment, ryan did not get the nod with the 218 votes he needs to win the gavel tomorrow. in a closed-door meeting, ryan got 200 colleagues' votes while florida congressman daniel webster backed by the conservatives in the freedom caucus got 43 votes. kevin mccarthy got one as did tennessee's marcia blackburn. a top republican called the votes a protest vote and half of them from non-freedom caucus members according to another source. officials predicted that ryan will get the necessary 218 to become speaker tomorrow, but deirdre, i don't know anymore. in the last couple of hours, ryan spoke like a winner. deirdre: he certainly did. >> tomorrow, we are turning the page, we are not going to have a house th

john burke of burke financial strategies. whether it pays to sell in may and go away, or april for that matter. phil flynn in the c-m. -- cme. phil, the final trading day of the month but does the selloff con into may? >> it looks like it is going to. the momentum indicator are terrible into the market. we took out key support. nasdaq with low 50 day moving average. typical rebound that we've seen after a selloff like this. this is probably the worst i've seen the mood in the market in a long time. a lot of times everybody has seen selloffs, buying opportunity. today the mood feels somewhat different. sense much other guys in the pits today. cheryl: jason, really, we heard from the fed. we got that gdp rating for the first quarter. there is just no growth. really may not come as a surprise to you we're seeing this type of selloff in the markets today, yesterday. a rough day, the question when does turn around come. >> you know, i think we have to look to the back part of this year. what has been going on is up until this rece

john burke from burke financial strategies says look for regions where rates are declining. where is that? oh, he'll tell you. and alan nutman in the pits of the cme. alan, quite the bull run again today. to what do you attribute that? >> i think it's just getsing a bounce. we saw unwinding on friday, but it wasn't heavy volume, and you could see the action in the vixx on friday wasn't real significant, so it didn't feel like it was a hard selloff. it felt like some profit taking. for me, i'm looking at half waw levels. the halfway level on the upside of the selloff is 2,085 in the spx, if we can get back above that, we could see a full recovery. and looking down below, 2050 is the halfway point of the rally that we saw in february those highs. so those are numbers to keep an eye on to see is the market half full of half empty? david: it came on a day when traders seemed to like just about every stock except for alibaba a. as liz has said, you have got a couple of names in the tech sector. >> sandisk is unloved for a couple of reasons. the first is it looks like they've lost

liz: that makes me bring in john burke. john, you feel the same way. could be put money in u.s. companies that don't have as much exposure to the u.s., right? >> liz, the way we look at the u.s. market, either the activity has to slow down enough for the fed to put off the fed raising rates, or the fed will raise rates. that is not a good choice. kind of like mike bracket tonight. either wisconsin wins or duke wins, either way i don't win the bracket. >> don't have wisconsin? >> neither one. liz: nicole petallides and i have wisconsin. she doesn't have them to win. i have them to win. you have to make sure there isn't too much exposure to the united states? >> we like rest of the markets. we like europe as a trade. we're not a long-term bull on europe. currency, look at slow down in the u.s. in the first quarter, has less to do with weather, more to do with currency. when you go to europe you have currency at your back and ecb which is in easing mode which is opposite what you have here in the u.s. >> bernie, we're looking at a dollar chart, 1.09, couple days, more than a week a

one of the recipients was 92-year-old john burke. he's the man standing next to the governor. today, mr. burke said in his words, you get medals for doing what you have to do you know? he was an army ranger. he says he thanks god for a wonderful family and a good life. >>> next a pregnant woman says this video proves that deputy punched her. >> it's ridiculous. >> tonight, we'll tell you what sparked the arrest and why the sheriff says his deputies had to use force. >>> they were struck by a car while responding to an emergency call on the beltway. they returned to the fire house today. >>> and an nba player stabbed two others arrested. the fight that turned a nightclub into a crime scene. >>> an altercation outside a new york nightclub left three people injured including an nba player. he and his girlfriend were having an argument last night. that's when the suspect intervened and pulled out a knife. he stabbed copeland and his girlfriend. police arrived and arrested the suspect. two atlanta hawks players were also arrested. all of the victims are expected to be okay. >> a te

over the next half-hour hour, john burke of presides over the discussion with a few remarks by other members of parliament. >> hi, thanks. welcome back. order. order. the youth parliament will now consider the third motion of the day and titled better work experience and careers advice. to remove the motion, i call on miss chloe stevens. [applause] >> richard branson started work at the age of 16. ? and started an apprenticeship at 14. all successful. they amassed success and at a young age. do we have these skills? the government claims that our education is more diverse and prepared for life than ever before. yet 76% of employers say we are not ready for work. schools want us to quote shakespeare. if the primary point of education is to help us were why -- earning the bridge between education and work. now, 57% of companies say that young people lack communication and teamwork skills. why is this? school is structured where you are surrounded by people your own age. life is not like this. in the workplace, you must work with evil of all ages and all backgrounds to get the job done.

one recipient john burke is originally from d.c.. he was an army ranger who says he thanks god for a wonderful family and good life. just the bravery, the courage, sacrifice. i can't engine to think about what it was like that day. >> we just have to show our appreciation. >>> well, stay with us "news 4 today" continues right now at 5:00 a.m.. >>> it is 5:00 a.m. good morning, everybody. >> welcome to "news 4 today" for this thursday. it is april 9, 2015. and we're starting off with another cloudy day. sgr another cloudy day. let's get right to tom kierein for a look at your forecast. >> not going to be real sunny today. we have clouds pushing in a little bit of light rain around the metro area. a band that stretches from near hagerstown through frederick and right just north of winchester martinsburg over to leesburg getting a few sprinkles as is montgomery and howard the district and prince george's county. and that's moving right now across anne arundel, calvert, charles, st. mary's and tracking east will be crossing the bay over

burkes and his policy director, hazen marshall. in addition, our floor and cloakroom staff have been very helpful, led by laura dove and robert duncan. senator cornyn and his staff did a marvelous job of helping to find out what difficulties there were and what things needed to be corrected. senator thune did a great job of lining up speakers. and senator barrasso did a great job with his staff in lining up some of the messaging. thanks are due to the senate finance committee, the staff director, chris campbell, the chief health counsel and policy director, jay colsa, and the health policy advisor, katie simmion, heath rutledge and becky shipp. and i want to extend my gratitude to the staff of the health, education, labor and pensions committee, senator alexander has done a marvelous job there but his staff -- including staff director dare cleary, his deputy staff director, lindsey sideman, his senior policy advisor and health counsel, liz rowe and health policy director mary sumter-lipinsky. i also need to thank the former budget

comcast sports john burke tells us about the loss. >> it's a roller coaster ride and going down hill. they got blown out by the cardinals. arizona is one of the best teams in football. the birds are nowhere near their class. they have decent shot at winning the division. they beat the giants at met life stadium the last week in the stadium. they win in the afc east even though they won't have a winning record. if they lose this week, they're done, eliminated. the eagles were coming off two good wins over the patriots and bills. three of the last five weeks they have been blown out. here is chip kelly today, the birds are inconsistent. >> i don't think it's tough. i mean, that's what we have. i think, again, i still think we have a good football team. when we play to our capabilities i think we're a really good football team. we've got to do a better job from a coaching standpoint. so we can have a team to play against buffalo and new england and play on saturday against washington. >> birds line backer last night said the redskins got something coming to them. that's real bleep. let's

john burke is originally from d.c.. he's standing next to governor mcauliffe. he says he thanks god for a wonderful family and a good life. >>> if you feel like apartment rent is worse than a mortgage payment, you could be right. realty trac took a look at housing payments and they found mocht monthly mortgages on average are more affordable than apartment rents in most of the country. in our area the study found that it's better buying in prince george's county. for a look at other areas, just head to nbc washington app. the rental market in our area is so crazy. it's a one bedroom with no parking and still paying over $2,000. >> but i've had people tell me i should buy something. i prefer renting. i like the perks, i don't have to call a plumber when something breaks. i just put in a request and they come fix it. >> but you don't get a tax write-off. >> but i don't get wet either when it's raining. so i'm happy. speaking of rain, a live look outside. cloudy for certain. >> those low clouds hanging right over the washington monument a live view from our city c

final question, do you believe in life after death in accounts like we discussed with john burke? thanks for watching, everyone. i'm megyn kelly. this is "the kelly file." >>> tonight -- >> we need new and great leadership. >> donald trump continues to dominate the polls as a large majority of republican voters think he'll win the general election. the one and only mark steyn is here tonight with reaction. then just days after a new york city police officer was gunned down, quentin tarantino reportedly calls cops murderers at an anti-police rally. >> i have to call the murderers the murderers. >> former new york city police commissioner ray kelly and david clarke are here to respond. and a daring raid to free hostages held by isis. here with reaction. hillary gets a ringing endorsement from the one and only katy perry on the campaign trail. >> you just have to roar about what you need to fight for. >> "hannity" starts right here, right now. >> welcome to "hannity." tonight donald trump continues to dominate the republican field. a new associated press gfk poll shows that a large m

i'm john burke. >> and i'm kimberly joseph. >> you already know that the hardest part of getting projects done is the lugging and the carrying and the moving of heavy materials, right? >> right. and a lot of times what i have to move is just too heavy for me. so i need to wait around until i can find someone to help me. the worx aerocart is a revolutionary new way to easily move just about anything, all by yourself. >> come on. take a look. see, most old-fashioned wheelbarrows have just one wheel. well, that makes you do all the work. >> right. you need to be pretty strong to carry this load on just one wheel. [ strained ] ohh! it's extremely heavy and really... >> watch out! watch out! >> ...unstable. >> what a mess! the worx aerocart changes everything. its revolutionary design does up to 90% of the heavy lifting for you. >> now, watch this. amazingly, the worx aerocart makes this 200 pounds feel like just 17 pounds. this is so much lighter. >> a regular wheelbarrow has one wheel up front, and that's a really bad design that makes you do all the heavy lifting. now, the secret is in the

i disagree with john burke's books who says in the second inaugural, meaning disappears completely and all we have is indeterminacy in ambiguity. i don't agree with that whatsoever. i don't think he revels in ambiguity the way hawthorne does or medal -- melville does. i disagree with that, but i think he does know about uncertainty. that's part of his political philosophy. that's important. then you avoid -- ambiguity combined with a sense of vision and morality and ethics, that's very hard to achieve for a politician and political leaders. it got us into a lot of danger in the 20th century and 21st century because people don't generally have that kind of vision. any other questions? >> what became of the booth family acting careers? >> edwin booth actually became super duper famous. edmund booth, he was really great. he didn't have the american style so much as much as the subtle sort fof dawdler. i think was a much better actor than john wilkes booth. others in the family trickled out but edmund booth owned many theaters and he was a manager and an actor and he was really great. in t

pastor john burke. good morning. >> good morning. >> so, it was a couple of decades ago. you were at your father's death bed and watching him die. and until then you'd never really thought about death, had you? >> no. i really hadn't. i picked up the first book about near-death experiences and read it and that night i just said, wow, this may be true. >> mm-hmm. >> and that really started me on the last 30 years of a journey of faith, of studying scriptures. but also studied about 1,000 of these near-death experiences. and weave them together, and you see this exhilarating future that awaits us. >> so what you notice is there are some things, you know, some people go, well, you know, that bright light is just the operating room light. or something like that. but you have put together all these near-death experiences, and there are some things that are common. >> oh, yeah. and in "imagine heaven" i talk about the 12 commonalities that people see, across ages, professions -- >> like what? >> well, like we

in this regard, john cooper took an edmund burke-like approach to his job. cooper led in many areas of public endeavors besides civil rights, including federal assistance for local schools environmental protection, and creation of the appalachian regional commission. in all the areas on which cooper left an imprint, his work in foreign affairs is perhaps best known. in this frame, cooper's expertise was such that his counsel was sought by senior members of both parties. as many of you know, the senate plays or is supposed to play a significant role in foreign affairs. the senate provides advice and consent to treaties as well as appointment of ambassadors. they consider bills to fund departments of state and defense. senate powers are not self-executing. senators must assert those powers and they have to do so against the tendency of the executive branch to overstep its bounds. john cooper played a major role in defending the prerogatives of the senate and of congress, a principal near and dear to my own heart. his best-known forays into foreign affairs in t

the unlikely love story started in london in 1969 when our two heroes, john rendall and ace burke, went shopping at harrod's department store and bought a lion. >> so ace and i went up to the pet department there were these two lions, the lioness and the cub that we subsequently called christian and he was totally, totally irresistible. it was really a shock to see these beautiful creatures in such a tiny cage. >> we half wanted to rescue him from this situation and we half thought it would be an adventure. >> anyone could see that he really loved us, we really loved him. we were all part of his pride. >> eventually the lion became too big so he was turned over to conservationist george adamson who would release him to the wild. about a year later john and ace went back to africa to look for christian and found that the magic was still there. >> he comes closer and closer and closer, and then you can just see that click of recognition. so we called him and it's when he took off. and he ran towards us with such excitement. the exuberance of it is what surprised everyone, the euphoria of
