Randy Kay

Randy uses his own story about clinically dying from pulmonary embolism and septic shock, which led to his meeting Jesus face to face in heaven. His testimony has been shared with many thousands in speaking and video engagements. The most authoritative voice on near-death-experiences (NDEs), John Burke (New York Times Best Selling Author of Imagine Heaven), wrote the foreword for Randy’s best-selling book, Dying to Meet Jesus. In Randy’s book he details his encounter with Jesus in heaven, and the hope and wonder therein. Randy’s experience allows him to uniquely speak to audiences about death, dying, and heaven while giving hope to those who fear death, or who are grieving the loss of a loved one. If you want your audience to learn about what is on the other side of this life and death, in heaven, from the perspective of someone who has been there, this is the presentation for you.

After a several decade and multi-disciplinary study by Randy’s human development firm, PACEsetters, he discovered the foundations of a thriving life. These foundations were determined as purpose, attitude, connection, and energy. Chief amongst these is faith. Randy speaks as to: how one can dream big to find purpose through pain how a renewal of the mind can produce a thriving mindset and attitude how social connections are the greatest contributors to finding joy, and how communication skills (like vulnerability) and empathy (to understand others) can strengthen relationships how energy is fundamental to thriving through the milieu of life Chief amongst these foundations is faith. But, how does one develop faith to thrive in life? Randy discusses the way to increase faith in discovering the heart of God, to thrive.

Randy shares the sadness in almost losing his daughter to drugs, mental illness, and suicide. Indeed, each member of Randy’s family has suffered from some form of mental illness, including Randy’s own struggle with clinical depression. Through Randy’s own struggles and other compelling true stories of others’ sufferings, Randy teaches listeners how to find joy through sadness, and meaning through pain. He discusses the loss of loved ones, and how even death cannot separate us from the love of God. In this presentation Randy addresses the scourges of mental illness and drugs while offering answers as to how God’s abiding Spirit can turn sadness to joy, and how brokenness is actually an essential part of how we are being conformed to the image of Jesus Christ (Romans 8:29).
