Fear is a totally normal emotion! We all feel it sometimes, whether it's when we are heading into "unknown territory" or facing a difficult situation and we aren't sure how it's going to turn out. Many of us experience fear when faced with the prospect of looking for a new job or leaving an old one, entering into or leaving a relationship, or even just getting in the car and trying to stay alert to potential dangers on the highway. BUT: When it comes to making decisions or even just starting the day, fear can cripple us. It can prevent us from taking action, prevent us from speaking our truth, prevent us from trying something new that may turn out to be the best thing we ever did. Our Inner Sage, that Divine Self that loves us unconditionally, will help us, if we draw on it. Using the Sage powers of Positive Intelligence, we can tap into our Sage through mindful breathing, using our senses to stay in the present moment, and even praying, asking for help. Trust your Sage. Know that when you are fully present, you are neither in the past nor in the future. You are right here, right now. Look at your feet. Where are they?

What did Hitler believe about God, religion and faith? Richard Weikart joins us. Plus, Do you feel uncertain about how to share your Catholic faith with others, especially as society increasingly rejects religion? Why not follow examples from the scriptures and saints to guide you? We talk with Kevin Cotter, who has tips for becoming a daily disciple in a hostile world.

Dr. Jeanette welcomes Lynne Renoir, author of God Interrogated - Reinterpreting the Divine, to explore God and religions throughout history.How did we get here? Who is the ultimate life being or force that brought us into this world?Can we see that perhaps our beliefs, morals, and truths are now shifting from what was held dear as the rule in past decades and centuries before? Are we finding the old stories might no longer work in our perception of life today?Is the word God bringing up emotions or resistance that has been handed down from generations within a family structure and you are expected to do what had been handed to you to follow in growing up?What if everything you know, isn't? Are you open to explore your life experience?Even if everyone has a different point of view and follows different truths, perhaps what we are all seeking is the greater acceptance of all? As we are seekers, we are now unraveling the beliefs so dearly held and allowing new ways of being a loving human being to enter our hearts and soul.For more information on Lynne visit: www.LynneRennoir.comFor a session with Dr. Jeanette on spiritualtiy in your world and how to navigate through all the questions visit: www.DrJeanetteGallagher.com

Today, I interview Jami Carlacio whose mother died when Jami was an infant. An older sibling cared for her for a few months, and then her grandmother took over for a while. When Jami was five, the family was gathered in Spokane and her grandmother suddenly died while they were there. An already precarious little life had just gotten infinitely more difficult. Jami was left behind to stay with family in Spokane until she was 21. During this time, Jami felt lost and alone. She began using drugs and alcohol at age 12 to ease the pain of feeling unlovable and unwanted. Jami struggled with alcohol addiction for the next 25 years, living in misery and experiencing suicidal thoughts. She had hit a spiritual rock bottom. Then, she looked back on her grandmother. Her grandmother had cared for her when no one else would. She had planted the seed of love during those first crucial years of Jami's life. Jami began to understand that she was lovable and that she had been very loved by someone. She saw that perhaps she was, in fact, still worthy of love. She realized that alcohol couldn't fill the void in her life. It couldn't heal her heart. Only love could do that. Her grandmother's sweet words came back to her, and this was the voice that empowered her to move forward and find value in herself. Jami then felt led to become a priest, but couldn't do this as a woman. So she went to New Haven and studied theology, earning an MDiv. God was leading her toward her purpose, and her purpose was to facilitate powerful, meaningful change and healing. She became a successful writer, coach, and activist.After experiencing so much loss, neglect, and trauma, Jami has come out so much stronger on the other side. She made it, and today she takes others by the hand to show them love and belonging. She has made it her life's work to help others find validation, encouragement, wholeness, and self-esteem by harnessing the power of their own voices. __________________ Jami Carlacio is a master-certified trauma-informed life coach, a writer, and a writing consultant. She has also consulted on gender equity in the workplace as well as on white privilege and anti-bias. Jami holds a PhD in rhetoric and composition and has taught writing and literature at various colleges and universities, including Cornell and Yale. She is the author of numerous scholarly works that feature the rhetorical genius of religious Black women in the public sphere. She is the editor of a collection of essays designed to help educators teach the work of Nobel Laureate Toni Morrison. Her most recent book is an edited collection entitled Activism in the Name of God: Religion and Black Feminist Public Intellectuals from the Nineteenth Century to the Present, due out in August of 2023 from the University Press of Mississippi. After about 25 years in academia, Jami left to pursue her spiritual calling. Since June of this year, she has focused her attention on coaching women who struggle with trauma-informed self-sabotaging behavior, who are re-evaluating their career choices, and who want to develop the self-confidence to choose healthy, affirming personal and professional relationships. Find Jami here:https://jamicarlacio.academia.edu/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100088134970508 https://www.empoweredlifecoaching.me Access Jami's book, From Trauma to Triumph: The Spiritual Path to Joy: https://empoweredlifecoaching.me/empowered-products-for-you/ebooks ________________I'm your podcast host, Dr. Doreen Downing, and I help people find their voice so they can overcome anxiety, be confident, and speak without fear. Get started now on your journey to your authentic voice by downloading my Free 7 Step Guide to Fearless Speaking: https://www.doreen7steps.com.

NASA wants to assess how humans will react if alien life is found on other planets and discovery could impact our ideas of gods and creation. According to reports, the agency is hiring 24 theologians to take part in its program at the Center for Theological Inquiry (CTI) at Princeton University in New Jersey, which NASA gave a $1.1 million grant to in 2014. CTI is described as building 'bridges of under understanding by convening theologians, scientists, scholars, and policymakers to think together. The program's aim is to answer questions that have confused us for a long time such as 'What is life? What does it mean to be alive? Where do we draw the line between humans and aliens? What are the possibilities for sentient life in other places?'Presently, NASA has two rovers on Mars, and several probes orbiting Jupiter and Saturn. It also launched the James Web Telescope yesterday that will study galaxy, star and planet formation in the universe. The agency is in hopes to discover life outside Earth. The Rev Dr Andrew Davison, a priest and theologian at the University of Cambridge with a doctorate in biochemistry from Oxford, is among 24 theologians chosen for the program.'Religious traditions would be an important feature in how humanity would work through any such confirmation of life elsewhere,' Davidson shared in a blog post on the University of Cambridge site.'Because of that, it features as part of NASA's ongoing aim to support work on 'the societal implications of astrobiology', working with various partner organizations, including the Center of Theological Inquiry at Princeton.' Davison is set to publish a book next year, titled Astrobiology and Christian Doctrine, which notes he believes we are getting closer to finding life on other planets.About Jim WillisA theologian, historian, and musician, Jim Willis earned his Bachelor's degree from the Eastman School of Music, and his Master's degree from Andover Newton Theological School. He has been an ordained minister for over 40 years. While serving as an adjunct college professor in the fields of comparative religion and cross-cultural studies, he was the host of his own drive-time radio show and part-time musician. His concern for spiritual growth in modern-day society prompted a series of lectures on historical studies and contemporary spirituality. Upon retirement, he was determined to confront the essential, mystical Reality that has inspired humankind since the very beginning of time. A background in theology and education led to his writing more than a dozen books on religion, the apocalypse, cross-cultural spirituality, and arcane or buried cultures, specializing in research bridging lost civilizations, suppressed history, and the study of earth energy, dowsing, and out-of-body experiences.www.jimwillis.net

Dr. Jeanette welcomes Alan Davey as we begin a new Lenten season and the idea of 'what is God' is being discussed in many households after such loss and destruction of the last several years. Alan will be sharing his new book Walking the Line: Embracing the Imperatives of Jesus which explores contemporary issues of our day.God is inviting us to live in a house of love, not fear, but how do we get there from here? If we have never know God or love, how can we recognize it in the first place when it comes knocking?Have you given up religion and God because of the dogma that others, books, family, traditions, or beliefs does not seem to fit today's world and you just don't know what is real or truth anymore? Who is really in control of our lives, our breath, and our soul? Perhaps we do not want any control in our life and are on a quest to cut all ties to anything that tries to tell us what to do, how to be or what is real. If we allow ourselves to become so hardened to the possibility of a new concept of existence, who will come by my side to support me and walk this journey with me, in spite of all the other naysayers that are out there?What is the world we are trying to navigate and how can we explore what questions to start asking of our heart and soul; maybe that is the first place to start.For more information from Alan visit: www.AlanDavey.comFor free articles, gentle healing book, session coupons, and newsletter from Dr. Jeanette visit: www.DrJeanetteGallagher.com Dr. Jeanette offers sessions via telephone across the globe, to guide and support those who are seeking peace and healing in their lives.

We're taking a break from uploading shows from The Vault of the Ancients to bring you 2 episodes that aired in early 2022. Here we converse with Prof. Humberto Casanova, a Chilean theologian. Mr. Casanova has impeccable credentials in the school of Reformed theology. But his thinking as taken a turn toward the more progressive end of Christianity. In his book Imagining God he examines the poetry, mythology and metaphor that permeate The Bible. While to some this kind of thinking somehow "diminishes" the status of Holy Writ, for others, a book like this can be a lifeline to a refreshed faith. Enjoy.

Do you believe in God? Contemplating your relationship to spirit can feel supercharged with triggering emotions, especially if we've had negative or uninspiring interactions with religion in the past.  In this episode, K + L reflect on their spiritual evolution and relationship with God. From traditional rituals of childhood conditioning to the framework they feel aligned with today. They discuss how they navigated resistance around what it means to believe in God, and how the process of unlearning conventions has helped them cultivate a connection with God that feels unconditional, authentic, and life-affirming.  We also talk about: Individual journeys with religion  Coming back to a relationship with God  Spectrums of religion Judgements in religion and consequences  How to make spirituality your own Sponsors: Athletic Greens | Get a 1-year supply of Vitamin D + five FREE travel packs with your first purchase at http://www.athleticgreens.com/almost30 (athleticgreens.com/almost30) Bev | Get 20% off your first purchase + free shipping at https://drinkbev.com/pages/almost30?utm_campaign=almost_30_november_2021&utm_medium=podcast&utm_source=almost_30 (drinkbev.com/almost30) or use code “ALMOST30” at checkout Elavi | Get 15% off when you use the code ALMOST30 + free shipping on 2 pouches or more at https://www.elavi.co/ (elavi.co ) Open | Get 30 days free with the code ALMOST30 at https://o-p-e-n.com/community?code=ALMOST30&utm_soure=manual&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=ALMOST30 (open-together.com/almost30) Daily Harvest | Use code ALMOST30 to get up to $40 off your first box athttp://www.daily-harvest.com/almost30 ( www.daily-harvest.com/almost30) Resources: https://www.samharris.org/books/waking-up (“Waking Up: A Guide to Spirituality Without Religion”) by Sam Harris https://www.amazon.com/Untethered-Soul-Journey-Beyond-Yourself/dp/1572245379 ( “The Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself” )by Michael A.

This is a tricky one since Lawrence Krauss's critique of Christianity/religion is potentially the most scientifically grounded (Though it actually isn't). And I'm not a physicist. However, given the character of Krauss's critic of Christianity, it soon becomes evident that the governing thought process of this atheist (i.e. antitheist) is the belief in the importance of undermining religion as an end itself, and in the process set science 'free': That is to make it untethered from any moralistic concern that may emanate from a religiously inspired teaching or worldview. Writing in the New Yorker in 2015, Krauss states: "In science, of course, the very word “sacred” is profane. No ideas, religious or otherwise, get a free pass. The notion that some idea or concept is beyond question or attack is anathema to the entire scientific undertaking". The problem with this view is that, if everything is subject to question and scientific scrutiny, then why not the fundamental rights that govern modern societies: That of life, liberty, and freedom from oppression, and to pursue one's happiness. A notable point of Lawrence Krauss's critic of God/Religion is his arguments for the origins of the universe. Supposedly from nothing. A matter that Christian apologists and scientists alike have confronted. With most notable secular push back against Lawrence Krauss's position and subsequent book: A Universe from Nothing by David Albert in the New York Times in 2012. My problem with Lawrence Krauss is a somewhat different one. You see the thing about people like Lawrence Krauss, whose beliefs and actions are driven by their obvious vendetta against religion is the very real impact that it is likely to have on Western culture and Western civilization. This is a much bigger subject that cannot be engaged here. But what the anti-religious critic advanced by the likes of Lawrence, notably against Christianity-since this is the religion of the West-the only real place where the scientific enterprise developed and as arisen to the lofty standards that it has today-is that it translates into a logical critic or attack on the spiritual foundations of the West. To undermine Christianity: intellectually, culturally, and ultimately politically only works to weaken the foundations of Western civilization. Further problematic is Krauss's elevation of science as some self-contained reality. That can or ought to operate with a mind of its own. Understand this, science in and of itself does nothing. Science is basically a set of rules and processes on how to go about studying the nature of reality: Which involves steps like forming hypotheses; collecting data to support or contradict it, developing theories; carrying out experiments, testing the results to validate or invalidate the original theory or hypothesis, etc. This scientific process in and of itself does not tell us what kind of experiments to conduct, what kind of scientific theories are worth developing and pursuing. And needless to say what kind of scientific applications are good or bad in terms of their immediate or ultimate effects on humanity and the world. This requires a moral framework that cannot be reduced to the scientific method, as there isn't one in the world of science. Krauss's attack on Christianity, and by extension Western culture, only works to undermine the very society that gave rise to the scientific method: one that is for the most part values the human.

In this conversation on two of the hottest social and cultural issues of our day — the decline of religion and the rise of identity politics, Mary Eberstadt presents her alternative theory for the “secularization thesis” (that religious decline was followed by the decline of the family), arguing instead that the undermining of the family has undermined Christianity itself. Drawing on sociology, history, demography, theology, literature, and many other sources, Eberstadt shows that family decline and religious decline have gone hand in hand in the Western world in a way that has not been understood before — that they are “the double helix of society, each dependent on the strength of the other for successful reproduction.” Eberstadt argues that there are enormous social, economic, civic, and other costs attendant on declines of both family and faith, and Dr. Shermer presents counter examples to show that America's extreme religiosity has been a burden on its social health and that the decline of religion is a good thing. In the second part of the conversation Eberstadt and Shermer discuss her previous book on identity politics and how identitarians track and expose the ideologically impure, as people face the consequences of their rancor: a litany of “isms” run amok across all levels of cultural life; the free marketplace of ideas muted by agendas shouted through megaphones; and a spirit of general goodwill warped into a state of perpetual outrage. This rise of identity politics, she argues, is a direct result of the fallout of the sexual revolution, especially the collapse and shrinkage of the family. Eberstadt argues that from time immemorial humans have forged their identities within the structure of kinship. The extended family, in a real sense, is the first tribe and first teacher. But with its unprecedented decline across a variety of measures, generations of people have been set adrift and can no longer answer the question Who am I? with reference to primordial ties. Desperate for solidarity and connection, they claim membership in politicized groups whose displays of frantic irrationalism amount to primal screams for familial and communal loss.

Spent years Trying to answer this Question. I have spent years trying to understand my visceral reaction to religion. I was 100% there with a higher power, but organized religion was a struggle. I have no idea why. When to church each Sunday, Sunday school, communion, confirmation, etc., but still was repelled by it. I spent my life trying to understand the various religions and Gods of those religions. What I found was all, but one had created a system. If you do steps 1,2,3 etc., you will be loved. For God it was, I will love you regardless.  I could embrace that for sure. It has been and will continue to be a journey. But what I know to be true is there is a powerful force that guides the Universe. Those who understand this force can draw success and love into their life. And let's be honest here, who doesn't want that? Here's to you Finding Your Blue Rose!

The Ansari Podcast: Mahmoud Elansary and 2 of his highschool/college bestfriends talk about what God and religion has menat to them historically, how they feel about God and religion now. They ponder over the creation of God and who is God, how many Gods and religions are there and how to choose. What logic and knowledge mean to God and how important they are and the analogy of a ballroom as life. The issue with cancel culture, not listening to others, and Darrel Davis' experience with KKK leaders and members. They talk about the dangers of social media and some of the pros and cons. They talk about how corrupt governments have risen to power by using “righteousness” as the reason why they do the evil things they do and how one piece plays on that concept. And the problem of people envying one another on social media

We're back with another episode of Backscatter! On this week's episode, Josh and Amir discussed their beliefs in God and why they believe in those particular conceptions of God. They also explored different beliefs in God and why someone may adopt that particular conception. The two of them also discussed religion in a broad sense, the positives, as well as many of the issues they find with organized religion. For example, people who are particularly religious claim to “know” what God is when that is not something anyone could literally know. There is a reason why religion is called beliefs and not knowledge. They also discussed the problem of evil: If God is all good, all knowing, and all powerful, how does evil exist. They discussed some of the solutions they've heard of as well as exploring some of their own solutions. Ultimately though, there does not seem to be an adequate solution, this idea is explored further in the episode. Towards the end they also touched on the concept of miracles and why it seems unlikely that they are real. Stay tuned for more episodes every Thursday at 12 PM PST!

November 15, 2020 Join us as we continue our series in our Sunday Morning Bible Class on the Judaeo-Christian Heritage of the United States of America.  Last week we talked about "He That Will Not Work". In this weeks study, thinking about the many "free" things being promised by politicians and the incentives they often offer to not work, we are discussing "RELIGION AND MORALITY" .  We hope you will find it interesting, informative and thought provoking.

In these troubling, polarizing and highly partisan times we are living in, we need to think about the influence God has had on America since its founding.  This is our Sunday Morning Bible Class from September 27, 2020 as we begin a series of lessons on AMERICA AND GOD.  We hope you find it edifying and beneficial.

Are Judge Amy Coney Barrett's religious beliefs off-limits for her upcoming confirmation hearings? At first blush, yes, particularly given the long and unpleasant history of anti-Catholicism on the national political stage. But on a second look, and considering the well-settled concept from trial practice about "opening the door" to evidence on a particular issue, there is a distinct and important role for questions about religion. Judge Barrett's first law review article as an academic suggested that Catholic trial judges should recuse themselves from death penalty cases. Is her distinction between trial judges and appellate judges (such as a Supreme Court Justice) a meaningful one? The Senate will have to tread carefully to explore that important topic while maintaining appropriate boundaries between church and state.

This is knowledge that the negative agenda prefer we don't have. The greatest enemy of true wisdom is religion. Knowledge is too empowering and they want control. When we wake up and discover our ancestral roots, we can access the data and memory of the quantum field to really make a grand change on a collective scale. In addition, we are all Gods. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/soulrich/support

This is absolutely a spirit episode, as we are talking to a man who has had two near death experiences, studied divinity and specifically mysticism, AND is an ordained pastor. So a lot of unique perspectives! Rev. Peter Baldwin Panagore, MDiv is an entrepreneur, ordained pastor, and author. A two-time Near-Death Experiencer, Peter first died in 1980 of hypothermia while ice climbing in Canada, and then again of a heart attack in 2015, just as his book Heaven Is Beautiful: How Dying Taught Me That Death is Just The Beginning was released globally. For fifteen years, he broadcast a daily spot on two NBC TV stations with Daily Devotions TV, reaching a grand total of 450 million views and listens on TV, FM, and AM across Maine and New Hampshire, and around the nation. His book, Two Minutes for God: Quick Fixes for the Spirit is a daily inspirational with stories drawn from among the seventeen hundred he wrote and broadcast each day. Peter graduated from Yale University where he completed his Masters in Divinity with a focus on the practices and writing of western mysticism. He is currently at work on his third book with the working title, Modern Mysticism and You. In this episode, we discuss: ·      Peter's experience of death and what he encountered on the other side. ·      The struggle (and sometimes reluctancy) to try to explain and articulate mystical experiences using the constraints of human language. ·      How Peter explains and defines God. ·      The judgment process he went through after death and how it differs from how it is often taught in church. ·      His experience and understanding of Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory. ·      The four characteristics of a mystical experience and the different levels of mystical experiences that people have. ·      The history and relationship between mystics and mystical experiences and the power structure of religion. ·      How judgement can be couched within morality and structure. ·      The history of the Bible and the implications of reading and interpreting it only literally. ·      The definition of true humility and how to find radical equality among all of us.

Secret Religions The Spirit of the Age showed itself at the Golden Globes. Many think that freedom can be found outside of religion. That if people would free themselves from their god, that those people would live without any master, and they would be happy, good people. However, religion is necessary to the human condition. The question is not concerning whether to have faith, but what to have faith in. What is good and who is your God? #Religion #ideology #liberal #choice #faith #Christianity #Church #Pastor #Culture #JesusChrist #GoldenGlobes #MichelleWilliams

If God is a God of love why is there so much injustice? If God created the world who created God? Religion is the source of the worlds problems. These questions and these statements have been around since the beginning of it all. It's nothing new. There are some today who have made it there goal to rid the world of religious groups and people of any kind of faith. Our faith began as a promise to a nation. Out of that nation came the fullness of the promise and came the answer to all our questions. What's your answer to questions about faith? Do you have an answer? Join me this Sunday and let me introduce you to the answer.

Lucifer Is God #Religion #Astrology #Science. - Crumb TV Audio from #CrumbTV ( #GetSnatched)-Crumb breaks down how Lucifer is God. He goes through the Bible and decodes the stories to reveal a hidden revelation. Who is the "GOD OF THIS AGE"? 2 Corinthians 4:4 The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.✍ The SNATCHED Podcast is an Afro-centric or “Black” Consciousness podcast highlighting the content from the media re-evaluator Crumb Snatcher. The use of the word ‘Black' in reference to people is used a commonly accepted term to describe Melaninated people of some level of African and/or Afro-Indigenous / Indigenous / Aborigine / American-Aborigine / Asiatic, Afro-Asian, Moorish, Indian, Neo-Nubian, etc. descent. (i.e. No, we do not think that we are adjectives. We are not literally talking about the color of one's skin, we are not necessarily discussing a nationality or legal status at all times, and we don't believe that we are from the planet, country, or city named "Black". We do love and support the family members that are adamant and strict about these distinctions while we are more fluid in the use of the terminology.Warning - Trigger Warning. You WILL disagree with the Crumb Snatcher!! The Crumb Snatcher is a parody conscious-thought personality that mixes actual facts with humor and shock-antics to demonstrate the absurdity in American and world culture. The Crumb Snatcher is a loveable politically incorrect, thought-provoking, anti-organized religion, profane, demeaning, angry yet introspective collective of poor righteous teachers. Join their antics in conscious thought and new reality. Get SNATCHED!!!

In this episode I am talking with Colette Kulig about our direct experience with religion, self-care, and mental health, it is a deep & authentic conversation around difficult subjects that we are both still learning about. Colette and I met through a mutual friend when I was looking for a photographer. I took one look at Colette’s website and knew she was the gal for me. Her work speaks for itself and I fell in love with the way she captured emotion and stories through the art of photography. I booked her for a shoot and we connected immediately like old friends. Colette has a warm authentic personality and enthusiasm for life that is contagious and we had so much fun on the shoot together. We took a break for lunch and got into a deep conversation about our religious upbringing, our relationship to self-care, and mental health...we wrapped up our lunch but there was still so much more to say so I invited Colette to continue the conversation with us today.   Find Colette here https://www.colettekulig.com https://www.instagram.com/colettekuligphotography/ https://www.facebook.com/ColetteKuligPhotography

In this series, Bishop Malcolm uses Adam and Christ to describe the difference between religion and relationship. According to Bishop Malcolm, religion is the practice of appeasing an angry God and most Christians spend most of their time trying to appease God rather than building a relationship with Him. Bishop Malcolm also informed us that God only sees two people, Adam and Christ. After sinning, Adam took us from relationship to religion, while Christ saved us, taking us from religion to back to relationship.

Thomas was not shunned by the other disciples, and was not condemned by Jesus.  This should give us all courage. Thomas believed, lost faith and returns to even greater faith.   The Character of Thomas: A Different Take Thomas the Negative? John 11:16 - "Thomas, who was called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, that we may die with him.”" John 14:5 - "Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?”" These two passages reveal a man who is not giving in to fear. BUT he does seem to be a bit of a pessimist... AND being brave while others hide in fear can make you a bit "puffed up..." Thomas the Offended? Easy to imagine: "Why would he choose to show up when he knew I wasn't there? Here I am being brave (unlike these fair-weather-disciples) and he doesn't appear to me?!?" Thomas the Testy? We do know this: Thomas failed the "do not put the Lord your God to the test" test. (see Deut 6:16; Luke 4:12) Thomas the Honest He did not try to hide his doubts... Doubts which are left unattended can fester and grow, and can tear you apart. Jesus knew Thomas. And Jesus knows you! Jesus knows your doubts. He knows where you struggle in your faith. If you honestly admit where you struggle with doubts, but you really want to know God in spite of them, He will lead you to a place where you will be content with the answers. Joy in the Presence of the Risen Christ The Reaching-Out of God “Religion is about our reaching out to God; Christianity is about God’s reaching out to us.” Willimon: “The resurrected Christ goes back to, and appears before the very same rag-tag group of people who so disappointed him, misunderstood him, forsook him, and fled into the darkness." This is the dynamic of the Easter message. We don’t find Jesus, he finds us! The nature of a post-Resurrection faith Thomas was the pattern of what was to come: faith beyond (immediate) sight; finding Jesus in the midst of his followers; confession of Jesus as Lord and God The Last Beatitude: Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe.” (John 20:29) The Last Beatitude was reserved for us! Seeing What Cannot Be Seen There are things we believe that we cannot directly see (love of parents; faithfulness of a spouse). They are often the most important things of all!

Today I'm talking God & Religion. Does God Exist? In the Judeo-Christian sense I would suggest not. That idea had too many negative connotations attached to it. God is not the big boss man pushing things around, making laws, deciding who's good and bad. That idea is dead, or at least should be. larrygmaguire.com my friend Ray Heffernan inspired this episode with his Stephen Hawking quote this morning --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/sunday-letters/message

Listen to episode 237 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Carl Jung on Life, God & Religion. Edited and adapted from the work of Carl Jung. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Welcome to the Inspirational Living podcast. Visit our lifestyle brand BookofZen.com to shop for inspirational fashion and gifts. Proceeds help support the production of our podcast. Today’s reading was edited and adapted from the work of Swiss psychologist Carl Jung. “The decisive question for humanity is: Are we related to something infinite or not? That is the telling question of our lives. Only if we know that the thing which truly matters is the infinite can we avoid fixing our interests upon futilities and upon all kinds of goals which are not of real importance. The more we lay stress on false possessions, and the less sensitivity we have for what is essential, the less satisfying is our life. We feel limited because we have limited aims, and the result is envy and jealousy. If we understand, and feel, that here in this life we already have a link with the infinite, our desires and attitudes change.” “An understanding heart is everything in a teacher, and cannot be esteemed highly enough. One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feeling. The curriculum is so much necessary raw material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child.” “I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become…..You are what you do, not what you say you'll do.” “There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness…..As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light of meaning in the darkness of mere being.”

Jesus calls to us and says, “Anyone who is thirsty may come to me and drink (John 7:37-38).” And that thirst is only satisfied in relationship with God. He has designed us for relationship with Him. Over the next several weeks we will be talking about the daily intimate relationship available in Christ.

There are many religious people who claim to be serving God, but who are in fact mostly serving the demands of their own ego. Find out the difference between Religion 1 and Religion 2 and you'll easily be able to spot them.   COPYRIGHT 2017 SCOTT E. ROKELY

Jesus tells us what God is like in the so called parable of the Prodigal Son. The problem is, organized religion often does not know this God.   COPYRIGHT 2016 SCOTT E. ROKELY

Addiction is, at the core, a spiritual dis-ease. In order to feel whole again, our souls need to be cared for. We cannot afford to ignore our innate spirituality or the fact we are spiritual beings in human bodies. Join me as I discuss my own experience with religion and God as a child and how my understanding has changed and grown as I have continued on the path of self exploration. What does God mean to you? What do you believe or not believe? What is the difference between spirituality and religion? Are you seeking something? WHat are you seeking?

The Halakah of God God created man to enjoy Him and Walk with Him. Ever since then mankind has hid from God Religion is one of the ways we hide…

"Hey Cooper... tell us how you really feel!" "Well alright then."  We've discussed organized religion and how it's affected our own relationship with sexuality, how it influences our community as a whole and... at times, indelicately pointed out where we take issue with its monopoly on morality and its right to judge what's acceptable and what's not.  We finally said fuck it, threw up our arms, and invited Darrel Ray, author of the books The God Virus: How Religion Affects Our Lives and Culture, and Sex and God: How Religion Distorts Sexuality to join us for a discussion on how we really feel, what we see on a day to day basis, and how we can move forward and still live and love those who believe, even if we disagree.

Host: Chris Mooney By now you've probably heard the finding-the United States is growing less godly. More precisely, more and more Americans in surveys report that they lack a religious identity. These are the so-called "nones," and they already comprise 15 percent of the total population. But there are estimates that their numbers will continue to grow and could someday even surpass major denominations like Catholicism (currently 24 % of the country). Being a "none" is particularly popular among those aged 18-29. Barry Kosmin is the nation's leading expert on the "nones," a group that he studies through the ARIS, or American Religious Identification Survey. In this episode of Point of Inquiry, he discusses where America is heading with respect to its religious identity, why this change is occurring, and what the implications will be for secular advocacy in the future. Barry Kosmin is a sociologist and research professor in the Public Policy & Law Program at Trinity College, and founding director of the Institute for the Study of Secularism in Society and Culture. Dr. Kosmin has been a principal investigator of the American Religious Identification Survey series since its inception in 1990 as well as national social surveys in Europe, Africa, and Asia. His publications include One Nation under God: Religion in Contemporary American Society (1993) and Religion in a Free Market (2006).
