Beverly Brodsky
This Saturday, December 14, 2013, we are pleased to have Beverly Brodsky as our guest speaker, who will share her near-death experience resulting in a horrendous motorcycle accident.
Beverly was raised in a conservative Jewish family in a mostly Jewish neighborhood in Philadelphia. She went through her teens as an atheist. Since learning of the Holocaust at age eight, she had turned angrily against any early belief in God. How could God exist and permit such a thing to occur? In July 1970, her questions were answered when a motorcycle accident led to her near-death experience. Beverly’s testimony was included in the book Lessons From the Light written by Kenneth Ring and Evelyn Elsaeser Valarino. Ring described Beverly Brodsky’s NDE as “possibly the most moving in my entire collection.”
For two years, Beverly was on the Board of Directors for ACISTE (the American Center for the Integration of Spiritually Transformative Experiences), is the San Diego IANDS group leader for over 20 years. She’s also a minister in the L.A. Community Church of Religious Science, and prior to retiring, was a systems and business analyst for the federal government for 28 years.
