Kerry and Collin are joined by author John A. Zukowski, author of the book "Christmas On the Screen: Reviewing the Evolution of American Spirituality," which provides a springboard into the discussion of the classic "The Bishop's Wife," starring Cary Grant, Loretta Young and David Niven. Why did America need so many movies about celestial beings and angels after WWII? What would the film have been like if Grant and Niven switched roles? What exactly is a "stinger"? (we know it's a drink) All these questions, plus Kerry gives us three more titles (with a classic or two) from the "1,001 Movies You Must See Before You Die" book.  Buy John A. Zukowski's book "Christmas On the Screen: Reviewing the Evolution of American Spirituality" here. Book movies covered: "The Quiet Earth" (1985) "The Sawshank Redemption" (1994) "Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse" (1991)

This week on Black Hoodie Alchemy, we have another special guest: the wonderful, talented and laid-back Ronnie Pontiac. Ronnie is the author of books like 'American Metaphysical Religion: Esoteric and Mystical Traditions of the New World', he's part of the punk rock duo Lucid Nation with his wife Tamra Lucid, and he also just so happened to work as the great Manly P. Hall's research assistant and substitute lecturer for the last seven years of Hall's life. For the first half of the show, we talk about the legacy of Manly Hall as seen and experienced by Ronnie and his wife, who were completely taken under the wing of Hall and his wife in a relationship that eventually grew to feel like grandparents and grandchildren. Ronnie shares many candid stories about Manly Hall and gives us further insights into his philosophies and personal conduct, but beyond this we also get into Ronnie's work 'American Metaphysical Religion', and what it means to consider American spirituality from an outside perspective that focuses less on labels and more on actual conduct. The insights from these perspectives are huge, and include contexts like, for instance, all of the alchemists that were prevalent in Colonial America. Yes, the history of America is a whole lot more esoteric than the 'Pilgrim' stereotypes would lead us believe, and with all this context, Ronnie helps me take a look at modern American spirituality as well. And if that wasn't enough, we also get a little bit into the philosophies of DIY punk rock and even astrology! It was a great pleasure sitting down to chat with Ronnie, and we will definitely be getting him back on the show before too long -- we hope you dig it. my linktree with my books & more Ronnie on Instagram Ronnie on 'Medium' Ronnie's books on Amazon Tamra's book about Manly Hall This week's featured music is brought to you by the wild punk talents of LUCID NATION -- music done by the guest and his wife, Ronnie Pontiac and Tamra Lucid!

This show was originally going to cover primarily myths and legends of a survey of the First Nations. But when one of the most thoughtful voices on spirituality is on a roll, you ride shotgun. Rev. Jim Willis returns to the Garden and we discuss the difference between religion and spirituality, and where the two can diverge. We focus on American spiritualism and this does get to several First Nations beliefs and tales. This serves as an excellent epilogue to the American Cults episode while being a taste of things to come as we plan a forthcoming series focusing on First Nations myths, legends and lore divided by geographical or other means TBD.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4863095/advertisement

American Spirituality & ValuesRevival and various outpourings of the Spirit of God have been tied to reforms of our national culture and morality. Lately some universities across the nation have experienced authentic and intense desire to reflect God's grace in society; not just in church pews, but in classrooms, homes, neighborhoods, employment and marketplaces.Some academic leaders are testing these events with various 'litmus tests'. And Eddie urges us to check out a movie at the theaters with tell a narrative of Hippy preachers of the 60s & 70s, like Chuck Smith, Lonnie Frisbee, and Jack Hayford. All the revivals that brought hippies back to God were also met with skeptics.We also cover several local and state issues, like Tulsa School Board Corruption of Elections, Oklahoma's Marijuana legalization, and Tuition Tax Credits for Oklahoma parents to access more choices in educating their children.AUDIOVIDEOCatch all our shows at www.FreshBlack.CoffeeConnect with us at www.facebook.com/freshblackcoffeeOur audio podcast is at feeds.feedburner.com/thefreshblackcoffeepodcastOur video podcast is at feeds.feedburner.com/freshblackcoffeevideoWatch the video on our YouTube channel, Facebook, website, or with your podcasting app.   We record the show every Saturday and release it later the same day.Jeff Davis commentary appears courtesy of www.theThoughtZone.comClick here to watch this episode »

For 10% off your first month, use the link, http://www.faithfulcounseling.com/gospelsimplicityWhen people think of Eastern Orthodoxy, they often think of ancient traditions, incense, Greek culture, and so forth. Rarely is "African American Spirituality" on the list. That's why, when I heard of Fr. Paul Abernathy's book, The Prayer of a Broken Heart: An Orthodox Christian Reflection on African American Spirituality, I was instantly intrigued. In this video, Fr. Paul and I discuss everything from the history of African American spirituality to St. Moses the Black to the overlaps between Orthodoxy and African American Spirituality. It's a fascinating conversation, and likely one you haven't heard elsewhere.Check out his book: https://amzn.to/3JxnkR8Learn more about Neighborhood Resilience Project: https://neighborhoodresilience.org/Support Gospel Simplicity:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/gospelsimplicityOne Time Donation: https://www.paypal.me/gospelsimplicityMerch: https://gospelsimplicity.creator-spring.comFollow Gospel Simplicity on Social Media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gospelsimplicityInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/gospelsimplicity

From its inception, “the new world” has always been a place of religious experimentation. It was seen as a place where people would be liberated from pre-existing traditions and church structures. And so it's not surprising that the search for the sacred in this country has often seen radical departures from traditional Christian beliefs and practices. So how do contemporary views of spirituality differ from classical Christian views about God, redemption, and spiritual renewal? On this edition of the White Horse Inn, Michael Horton contrasts “American spirituality” with the historic Christian gospel (originally aired 08-15-10). ___________ To receive our new collection, Christianity and Pop Culture: Understanding Our Time, for a donation of any amount go to whitehorseinn.org/popculture. __________ To receive our free INNtro kit which includes the current issue of Modern Reformation magazine and our most recent set of extended-length White Horse Inn CDs, go to whitehorseinn.org/kit. __________ Become a partner and you will receive all of the White Horse Inn extended episodes, access to our extensive archive as well as a subscription to our magazine, Modern Reformation.

We also discuss her work with Ram Dass and the Seva Foundation, as well as the inspiration that led her to cofounding the Center for Contemplative Mind in Society. You don't want to miss this lesson in American spirituality and activism!

Expressions of religious belief through popular media are a regular occurrence in our contemporary age. But the circulation and negotiation of religious identities in public contexts has a fairly long history in American culture. Matthew Hedstrom, Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Virginia, looks beyond the church to determine how religious liberalism was popularized through mainstream book culture. In The Rise of Liberal Religion: Book Culture and American Spirituality in the Twentieth Century (Oxford University Press, 2012) he examines mid-century middlebrow society at the intersection of protestant liberalism, therapeutic culture, and American consumerism. Through an examination of resources such as book clubs, reading programs, key authors, bestsellers, and new publishing initiatives in religion, he argues that American spiritual life during the mid-twentieth century happens through religious commodities. In our conversation we discussed social practices of reading, William James, publishing companies, effects of the World Wars, mysticism, psychology, consumerism, Jewish and Catholic voices, a turn to the East, and the intersecting religious trajectories of the early twentieth century.
