David and his best friend saw a Saucer shape UFO that looked like a spinning top. It had portals (windows) circled around the top or near the top of the craft. They stood there in awe, there was also missing time because David's Mom was really mad when he came home so very late. He experienced four other UFOs since then, and the last one was a large triangle craft in April 2011. Saw all the components on its underside as it passed over him. His Mom and two Brothers also saw this one just down the Street. David has been abducted at least four times. Encounters with two ETs while wide awake and several in vivid regressed dreams. And a very strange encounter with a lady believed to be a hybrid.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-41-beware-of-the-flying-saucers/Want to share your encounter on the show?Email: UFOChronicles@gmail.comOr Fill out Guest Form:https://forms.gle/uGQ8PTVRkcjy4nxS7Podcast Merchandise:https://www.teepublic.com/user/ufo-chronicles-podcastHelp Support UFO CHRONICLES by becoming a Patron:https://patreon.com/UFOChroniclespodcastX: https://x.com/UFOchronpodcastThank you for listening!Like share and subscribe it really helps me when people share the show on social media, it means we can reach more people and more witnesses and without your amazing support, it wouldn't be possible.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ufo-chronicles-podcast--3395068/support.

In This Episode:What happens when a missionary couple confronts a demonic entity face to face—in the middle of a war-torn Ugandan village?Today, Jim, John and Lonaiah recount a chilling true story from Troy Brewer's ministry via the Confessionals Podcast, where he and his wife encountered a supernatural threat while working in Uganda. This spirit spoke audibly, threatened death, and matched prophetic warnings shared by locals.The team dives into spiritual warfare, discerning of spirits, the power of the blood of Jesus, and how believers can walk in real authority—not just theory. Plus, they share how demonic intimidation often targets those on the brink of major kingdom impact.What We Cover:

Finding Jesus in Unexpected Places // Jesus and the Leper   Matthew 8:1-4 (NLT)“Large crowds followed Jesus as he came down the mountainside. Suddenly, a man with leprosy approached him and knelt before him. ‘Lord,' the man said, ‘if you are willing, you can heal me and make me clean.' Jesus reached out and touched him. ‘I am willing,' he said. ‘Be healed!' And instantly the leprosy disappeared. Then Jesus said to him, ‘Don't tell anyone about this. Instead, go to the priest and let him examine you. Take along the offering required in the law of Moses for those who have been healed of leprosy. This will be a public testimony that you have been cleansed.'” John 6:37-39 (AMP)“All that My Father gives Me will come to Me; and the one who comes to Me I will most certainly not cast out [I will never, never reject anyone who follows Me]. For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but to do the will of Him who sent Me.” Romans 10:13 (NLT)“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” We are the Leper … … And Jesus has come to heal Healing is Found in an Encounter with the Authentic Love of God. We Get to Love Like Jesus  John 14:12-14 (NLT)“I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father. You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father. Yes, ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it!”  Matthew 10:8 (NLT)“Heal the sick, raise the dead, cure those with leprosy, and cast out demons. Give as freely as you have received!”

Patrick discusses viral video of UFO witness telling his story for the first time.

You'll never experience complete deliverance until you walk in forgiveness. During the close of his series, Deliverance, Dr. Gabe challenges us to reflect deeply on generational patterns, personal transformation, and the realities of deliverance—not just for ourselves, but for those who will come after us.Through honest stories and scriptural insights, Dr. Powell confronts the realities that many of us normalize: from the everyday struggles we're reluctant to admit to the generational wounds we often hide. He emphasizes the urgent need for deliverance and the power that transforms forgiveness—reminding us that true freedom and breaking these cycles often come down to our willingness to forgive those who have passed down these patterns to us.Support the showText encounteratl to 94000 to stay up-to-date on all things Encounter.Worship with EncounterSundays at 9 AM ET | Wednesdays at 7:30 PM ETSupport EncounterText egive to 77977 Connect with EncounterFacebook | Instagram | TikTok | YouTube | WebsiteConnect with Dr. GabeInstagram | YouTube | Website

In tonight's firsthand account, Melissa takes us back to a quiet Sunday night in 1974, when she was just 11 years old. Her family had just left evening worship at church and was driving a deserted stretch of the newly constructed I-75, between Chattanooga and Knoxville. There was no traffic, no distractions—just the road and something watching from above. What appeared was a massive, disc-shaped craft—liquid silver, like shimmering mercury or pewter—that suddenly hovered over their car, silently keeping pace in the Tennessee night sky. But the most unforgettable part? Seeing fear on her father's face for the very first time. Join us as Melissa recounts this unnerving encounter with a UFO so vast and otherworldly, it turned an ordinary drive home into a moment frozen in time.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-335-interstate-75-encounter/If you enjoy this podcast, please support the show with a virtual coffee:https://ko-fi.com/ufochroniclespodcastFollow and Subscribe on X to get ad free episodesX: https://x.com/UFOchronpodcast/Want to share your encounter on the show?Email: UFOChronicles@gmail.comOr Fill out Guest Form:https://forms.gle/uGQ8PTVRkcjy4nxS7Podcast Merchandise:https://www.teepublic.com/user/ufo-chronicles-podcastHelp Support UFO CHRONICLES by becoming a Patron:https://patreon.com/UFOChroniclespodcastAll Links for Podcast:https://linktr.ee/UFOChroniclesPodcastThank you for listening!Like share and subscribe it really helps me when people share the show on social media, it means we can reach more people and more witnesses and without your amazing support, it wouldn't be possible.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ufo-chronicles-podcast--3395068/support.

Welcome to Brief Encounters—where history's strangest moments collide with the unexplained. I'm your host, Nik. It was April 1665. A quiet day along the shore of the Baltic Sea. Fishermen cast their lines near the German town of Stralsund, as they had for centuries. Salt in the air. Nets in the water. Nothing unusual—until they looked up and saw ships—not in the water, but in the sky. Dozens of them. Moving, maneuvering, and even firing at each other. A battle. In broad daylight. Overhead. And then… a dark object emerged. It hovered. It shimmered. It terrified.Brief Encounters is a tightly produced, narrative podcast that dives headfirst into the world of UFO sightings, the paranormal, cryptids, myths, and unexplained legends. From ancient sky wars to modern close encounters, each episode takes listeners on a journey through some of the most mysterious and compelling cases in human history. Whether it's a well-documented military sighting or an eerie village legend whispered across generations, Brief Encounters delivers each story with atmosphere, depth, and cinematic storytelling. Episodes are short and binge-worthy — perfect for curious minds on the go. In just 5 to 10 minutes, listeners are pulled into carefully researched accounts that blend historical context, eyewitness testimony, and chilling details. The series moves between eras and continents, uncovering not only the famous cases you've heard of, but also the forgotten incidents that deserve a closer look. Each story is treated with respect, skepticism, and wonder — offering both seasoned enthusiasts and casual listeners something fresh to consider. Whether it's a 15th-century sky battle over Europe, a cryptid sighting in a remote forest, or a modern-day abduction report from rural America, Brief Encounters is your guide through the shadows of our world — and the stories that refuse to be explained.UFO Chronicles Podcast can be found on all podcast players and on the website: https://ufochroniclespodcast.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ufo-chronicles-podcast--3395068/support.

Stories from My Hippy Days, Part 2 Featuring David and Rhonda A year or more ago we did a Part 1 podcast on stories from my days as a Stanford Medical student in the late 1960s. This was the Hippy Era and the famous “Summer of Love.” A young man, Clyde, recently asked if we'd do Part 2, since we didn't get to all the stories the first time around. As an aside, there are more stories, so if you like them, we'd be happy to do a Part 3 as well. 1. Husain Chung and the crazy teen from LA: When a stallion wants to run, you run with the stallion!” 2. A frightening encounter with Vic Lovell: And a mentor's advice on how to handle it. 3. Bar next to the Free University Coffee House: Outrageous works, even with the Hell's Angels. 4. The bearded man on the quad near the Stanford Student Union—Telling me to “sit with open hands” 5. Ken Kesey and his merry pranksters walked into the Stanford Student Union—they were dressed in pajamas or clown outfits and Neil Cassady was juggling hammers. 6. The tape recorder experiment: Bizarre week, unexpected conclusion. 7. Encounter at the Medical School: “Psychiatry and Psychotherapy—Are they Relevant or Obsolete?” Featuring Hussain Chung 8. Missing the medical school graduation ceremony: Didn't pick up my diploma until years later. 9. Homeless in Carmel Valley: Saved by Ramadan, Subud and Bapak. Thanks for tuning in today! And keep your requests, questions, and feedback coming. Your satisfaction and happiness are our top goals! Rhonda and David

In the late sixteenth century, a German Lutheran scholar named Martin Crusius compiled an exceptionally rich record of Greek life under Ottoman rule. Although he never left his home in the university town of Tübingen, Crusius spent decades annotating books and manuscripts, corresponding with the Greek Orthodox Patriarch, and interviewing Greek Orthodox alms-seekers. Ultimately, he gathered his research into a seminal work called the Turcograecia, which served for centuries as Europe's foremost source on Ottoman Greece. Yet as Richard Calis reveals, Crusius's massive—and largely untapped—archive has much more to tell us about how early modern Europeans negotiated cultural and religious difference. In particular, Crusius's work illuminates Western European views of the religious “other” within Christianity: the Greek Orthodox Christians living under Ottoman rule, a group both familiar and foreign. Many Western Europeans, including Crusius, developed narratives of Greek cultural and religious decline under Ottoman rule. Crusius's records, however, reveal in exceptional detail how such stories developed. His interactions with his Greek Orthodox visitors, and with a vast network of correspondents, show that Greeks' own narratives of hardship entwined in complex ways with Western Europeans' orientalist views of the Ottoman world. They also reflect the religious tensions that undergirded these exchanges, fueled by Crusius's fervent desire to spread Lutheran belief across Ottoman Greece and the wider world. A lively intellectual history drawn from a forgotten archive, The Discovery of Ottoman Greece (Harvard UP, 2025) is also a perceptive character study, in which Crusius takes his place in the history of ethnography, Lutheran reform, and European philhellenism. Richard Calis is an Assistant Professor in Cultural History at Utrecht University, who specializes in the history of science and intellectual history Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature. YouTube channel. Twitter.

Welcome to Brief Encounters—where history's strangest moments collide with the unexplained. I'm your host, Nik, and today we kick off this series with one of the oldest and most vivid mass sightings ever recorded: the day the sky turned into a battlefield.On April 14, 1561, in Nuremberg, Germany, a peaceful dawn was shattered by chaos in the heavens. Hundreds of citizens witnessed an aerial event so bizarre they could only describe it in the terms of their time: a sky war. Dark spheres, cylindrical crafts, crosses, and rods collided, exploded, and fought. Then, as suddenly as it began, it ended, leaving behind scorched earth and a woodcut that would etch this mystery into history.Brief Encounters is a tightly produced, narrative podcast that dives headfirst into the world of UFO sightings, the paranormal, cryptids, myths, and unexplained legends. From ancient sky wars to modern close encounters, each episode takes listeners on a journey through some of the most mysterious and compelling cases in human history. Whether it's a well-documented military sighting or an eerie village legend whispered across generations, Brief Encounters delivers each story with atmosphere, depth, and cinematic storytelling. Episodes are short and binge-worthy — perfect for curious minds on the go. In just 5 to 10 minutes, listeners are pulled into carefully researched accounts that blend historical context, eyewitness testimony, and chilling details. The series moves between eras and continents, uncovering not only the famous cases you've heard of, but also the forgotten incidents that deserve a closer look. Each story is treated with respect, skepticism, and wonder — offering both seasoned enthusiasts and casual listeners something fresh to consider. Whether it's a 15th-century sky battle over Europe, a cryptid sighting in a remote forest, or a modern-day abduction report from rural America, Brief Encounters is your guide through the shadows of our world — and the stories that refuse to be explained.UFO Chronicles Podcast can be found on all podcast players and on the website: https://ufochroniclespodcast.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ufo-chronicles-podcast--3395068/support.

What happens when curiosity becomes obsession—and the wild starts watching back?In this episode, we journey deep into the heart of cryptozoological mystery, where strange creatures aren't the only things lurking in the dark. From remote mountain ranges to disaster zones veiled in smoke and secrecy, we follow the breadcrumbs left by researchers, explorers, and locals who claim to have seen the impossible—and sometimes paid the price for speaking out.You'll hear accounts that defy easy explanation: humanoid figures glimpsed in fog-draped valleys, fieldwork that ends in silence and blood, and eerie patterns of vanishing evidence. As the line blurs between folklore and field science, one question echoes through every story: what aren't we supposed to find out? This isn't just a tour of cryptid lore—it's a confrontation with the hidden cost of seeking the truth in places the world forgot. Expect shadowy encounters, vanished research, and the uncomfortable possibility that some legends are protected by more than just disbelief.
