Near-death experiences are a fascinating area of research that converge fields of psychology, neurology and sociology, but for the people that experience it, it usually feels far more complex than any sort of -ology. It transforms you. 

Josh Rodgers had 40,000 volts of electricity go through his body when climbing a tree. He broke his back in two places when he fell and then had his left arm amputated due to the burn damage. He spent five weeks in the hospital, 3 days in an induced coma, underwent multiple surgeries and had a few blood transfusions – all less than 6 months before we met him at the Forge men’s retreat this year. And he still has more surgeries to come.
