For Rabbi Jeremy Tibbetts, Jewish mysticism is all about turning inwards: both individually and religiously. While he did not grow up Orthodox, Rabbi Jeremy was exposed to Hasidic teachings for the first time at eighteen years old and found that there was something “deeply healing” about the Torah. Over the past decade, he has dedicated himself to studying mysticism and has grown fluent in the writings of the Arizal, Rabbi Isaac ben Solomon Ashkenazi Luria, and other mystical thinkers. Rabbi Jeremy Tibbetts is the co-director of the JLIC Jerusalem Community alongside his wife, Emily. He studied public health at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and currently learns at Yeshivat Siach Yitzchak in Efrat. He is also the director of student leadership at Yavneh on Campus, where he works with students on over forty college campuses to help build local Jewish communities.Now, he joins us to answer eighteen questions with Rabbi Dr. Benji Levy on Jewish mysticism including the role of mysticism in daily life and how each person can find their own “piece of Torah.”Here are our questions: What is Jewish mysticism?How were you introduced to Jewish mysticism?In an ideal world, would all Jews be mystics?What do you think of when you think of God?What is the purpose of the Jewish people?How does prayer work?What is the goal of Torah study?Does Jewish mysticism view men and women the same?Should Judaism be hard or easy?Why did God create the world? Can humans do something that is against God's will?What do you think of when you think about Moshiach?Is the State of Israel part of the final redemption?What is the greatest challenge facing the world today?How has modernity changed Jewish mysticism?What differentiates Jewish mysticism from the mysticism of other religions? Does one need to be religious to study Jewish mysticism?Can mysticism be dangerous?How has Jewish mysticism affected your relationships with yourself and with others?What is a Jewish teaching that you always take with you?

Moshe's father-in-law Jethro, Yitro in Hebrew, had been the world's foremost pagan priest and idolatrous practitioner...but then he turned his life around completely, declaring that the God of Israel is the One True God. How does such a turnabout happen? What was the price he paid for clinging to the truth, and what are the lessons learned for today's spiritual seekers? In this week's Jerusalem Lights podcast, Jim Long and Rabbi Chaim Richman reflect on the life story of this true servant of God and brave iconoclast...for whom the Torah portion including the Giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai is named. Our hosts also discuss the relationship between the Ten Commandments and all the other commandments of Torah. What makes these ten stand out especially, and why were they uttered aloud at Sinai?_________Rabbi Chaim Richman Jerusalem Lights | Torah for Everyone Please support the work of Jerusalem Lights, Inc., a USA recognized 501 ( c ) 3 non-profit organization to enable these productions to continue and grow:PayPal: infojerusalemlights@gmail.com or: https://paypal.me/JerusalemLights?loc...In the USA: Jerusalem Lights Inc.

Questions? Comments? Text Us!What if theology is not a set of inherited doctrines, but life seeking understanding? Learn more in Jerry's latest book, Radically Personal: God and Ourselves in the New Axial Age, and subscribe for weekly episodes that explore God, spiritual experience, and the ongoing journey of the soul.In this second installment of Radically Personal, philosopher Dr. Jerry L. Martin explores what he calls Theology Without Walls — a seeker-centered approach that begins with direct experience rather than boundaries set by any single tradition.Jerry reflects on the challenge of religious exclusivism, the belief that only one religion is true while others must be rejected, engaging the influential argument by Christian philosopher Alvin Plantinga. Plantinga contends that simple logic requires believers to view other religions as false. Jerry examines this claim carefully, suggesting that many spiritual teachings once assumed to be contradictory may, in fact, illuminate different aspects of divine reality. Truth may not be limited to one place or one people.The conversation considers how spiritual knowledge grows. Just as scientific understanding expands by taking in new insights rather than discarding what came before, religious understanding can deepen when seekers remain open to what God may disclose beyond familiar walls. Jerry proposes a different epistemic strategy — one grounded in conviction but accompanied by humility — acknowledging that human beings are limited, that divine mystery exceeds our concepts, and that God may be revealing truth in multiple traditions across the world.This episode is a call to be rooted, open, curious, and responsive — to seek a relationship with the Divine that is radically personal.Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:The Life Wisdom Project – Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.From God to Jerry to You – Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God – A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue – Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story – Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind – Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.What's On Your Mind – Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue. Stay ConnectedShare your thoughts or questions at questions@godandautobiography.com

Send me your thoughts in a Text MessageMost seekers begin this journey with expectations — about how awakening should look, how it should feel, or what will be lost or gained. But these assumptions quietly block the very seeing they long for.In this short talk, Ilona Ciunaite points to the five biggest mistakes seekers make on the path of awakening: projecting outcomes, fearing loss, doubting simplicity, chasing experiences, and dismissing what's already here.This is a direct invitation to pause the search and look for yourself. What is actually happening right now? What is imagined?Awakening isn't a distant event or a dramatic experience — it's the simple recognition of what's always been here.Watch until the end to see how subtle expectations keep the mind spinning and how the simplest look can shift everything.Subscribe for more conversations, guided sessions, and insights on the journey of awakening.Join Ilona's monthly live events and find more resources at https://ilonaciunaite.comThis video will help you understand how:– Fear that “I'll lose family/job/body” is a protection pattern that blocks looking.– Mind objects to simplicity and prefers to analyze and build stories.– Awakening is everyday living, not a final state or fireworks.– Seeing “nothing” is a real seeing; don't reject it because it is not an experience.When you stop chasing what isn't here and turn attention to what is, awakening naturally reveals itself.Subscribe to my Newsletter for updates and to receive info about free monthly meetings on Zoom https://ilonaciunaite.com/subscribe/Music by Valdi Sabev, Visit his channel for more calm and relaxed music https://www.youtube.com/c/ValdiSabev/featuredWebsiteshttp://ilonaciunaite.comhttp://liberationunleashed.com

Questions? Comments? Text Us!Radically Personal is a new series exploring how divine reality reveals itself within the lives of individual seekers. Based on Dr. Jerry L. Martin's newest book, Radically Personal: God and Ourselves in the New Axial Age, the series invites listeners to rethink what it means to encounter the divine as intimately present and personally responsive. Each episode follows the unfolding conversation between human experience and transcendent reality, uncovering how theology itself must evolve to meet a pluralistic, spiritually awake world.In this premiere episode, “How Divine Reality Reveals Itself in Every Spiritual Journey,” Jerry begins with a simple but profound truth: reality discloses itself. Drawing from philosophy, theology, and lived experience, he explores how ultimate reality — or what we might call God — has revealed itself across times, cultures, and religious traditions.Through stories like missionary Kenneth Cracknell's awakening in Nigeria and reflections on Abraham Joshua Heschel's life-seeking theology, Jerry challenges traditional boundaries and invites a new kind of understanding. Theology Without Walls, he argues, is not just a scholarly ideal but a way of life: the quest to orient one's being toward the ultimate source of meaning.Hosted by Scott Langdon, this episode introduces listeners to a living philosophy of faith — one that honors revelation wherever it occurs and asks how each of us might find our own access point to the divine.✨ Listen as theology becomes personal, revelation becomes universal, and the search for God becomes the search for your truest self.Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:The Life Wisdom Project – Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.From God to Jerry to You – Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God – A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue – Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story – Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind – Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.What's On Your Mind – Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue. Stay ConnectedShare your thoughts or questions at questions@godandautobiography.com

Too Christian for New Age, too New Age for Christians—where does A Course in Miracles really belong? In this episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles, Robert and Emily Perry take a closer look at one of the most common and controversial questions about the Course. Many Christians see ACIM as “unbiblical” or even dangerous, while many spiritual seekers view its Christian language as outdated or off-putting. So where does the Course really stand? In this discussion, we explore:  The Course's use of Christian language—God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, forgiveness—and how it reinterprets those terms. Key differences between ACIM and traditional Christian doctrine. Surprising compatibilities that go beyond language into the heart of the message. How the Course might be “more Christian” than its critics (and even many of its students) have realized. At the Circle of Atonement, we believe ACIM and Christianity are not opposites, but conversation partners—each with something to teach us on our shared path to God. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles. We are the publisher of the Complete and Annotated Edition of the Course (known as the “CE”), which is available as a paperback*, ebook*, and via Audible. Our work grows out of our commitment to be as faithful as possible to what A Course in Miracles says,  years of dedication to walking this path ourselves, and a desire to see the Course's purpose realized in the lives of students and in the world. You are invited to download the free ACIM CE App to read, search, or listen to the Course wherever you are in the world, by following the instructions at https://acimce.app/ Whether you are new to ACIM or you've been a student for many years, you are welcome to join our online community and learning platform to access a vast collection of resources designed to help you understand and apply Course teachings in everyday life: https://community.circleofa.org/ To submit a question or suggest a topic for a future podcast episode, please email info@circleofa.org.

Do you consider yourself spiritually open-minded? Maybe you believe that there is a God. Or you've discovered that there is definitely a spiritual aspect to this world. Do you know that the only true spiritual seeker is God Himself? He is the one who comes and seeks after us. He's even seeking after you—pursuing you right now. Have you considered that you could be known personally and live in an intimate relationship with the living God? He is the majestic, great King, the Judge of all earth, and Creator of the universe. But at the same time, He says: I will be your Father, and I long to adopt you. And we will live life together. ** That is His offer for you today. Not a religious chasing around, but a close, personal relationship with God Himself. I urge you to say “yes” to Him today. Let God find you. Always remember, there is hope with God. "For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him." John 3:16-17 radio.hopewithgod.com

In this episode, join us as we delve into the fascinating journey of Leslie Grace, a registered nurse, vibrant journey alchemist, soul mentor, and co-author of a Wall Street Journal Bestseller. Leslie's story is one of profound transformation, spiritual exploration, and embracing life's mysteries.  Leslie Grace shares her background, growing up in a conservative Catholic environment in the Midwest. Despite leaving the church in her teen years, she always sensed a deeper connection to the universe and embarked on a journey of self-discovery.  During her college years, Leslie studied biopsychology and cognitive science, delving into the nature of the mind and consciousness. She also explored Buddhism and Eastern thought, sparking her curiosity about the essence of consciousness.  Leslie began experimenting with psychedelics, leading to eye-opening experiences that hinted at a deeper reality. These encounters stirred her interest in meditation and spiritual seeking, propelling her into a voracious quest for understanding.  Leslie defines successful seekers as individuals who have achieved significant success in their lives but still feel an inner yearning for something more. These seekers are driven by a desire for wholeness, connection, and a vibrant existence beyond material accomplishments. The conversation shifts to the misconception of success and the pursuit of happiness. Leslie highlights the common belief that financial security solves all problems, but emphasizes the importance of emotional well-being, self-actualization, and self-transcendence.  Leslie shares her profound spiritual experiences, including encounters with plant medicine, which allowed her to perceive the sacredness in all things. She emphasizes the interconnectedness of life and the importance of embracing the divine within and around us. Leslie emphasizes the importance of continual self-discovery and acceptance of all aspects of oneself, fostering compassion and self-love.  Drawing from her background in end-of-life care, Leslie reflects on her role in providing spiritual support to patients and their families. She shares heartwarming stories of individuals embracing death with grace and surrender, illuminating the beauty in the transition.  Leslie's journey serves as an inspiring testament to the transformative power of embracing life's mysteries. Her insights challenge conventional notions of success and invite listeners to embark on their own inner explorations, fostering a deeper connection with themselves and the world around them.  Join us in this episode as we explore the transformative journey of Leslie Grace, celebrating the endless possibilities that unfold when we embrace the mysteries of life.  Key Takeaways:    Introduction Meet Leslie Grace: RN, soul mentor, and transformation leader[00:56]    Breaking Free and Spiritual Seekers [02:30]    Understanding Successful Seekers [04:50]    Chasing Success and The Never-Ending Journey [06:40]    Motivation and Limiting Beliefs [10:05]    Reconnecting with the Divine [12:12]    Intimacy with the Universe [14:28]    Living the Journey [15:18]    Overcoming Fear of Death [16:18]    End-of-Life Care Experience [21:26]    Death as a Transition [27:12]    Psychedelic Insights and Fearlessness [30:07]    Upcoming Vision Quest [34:22]    Burning Man Initiation [34:47]    Conclusion and Contact Information [35:14]    QUOTES:  “Finding a wholeness and a sense of presence and like all-encompassing compassion that's larger than whatever our fears and traumas have been that lets us include those as part of what makes us human and whole”. - Leslie Grace [17:50:09]  “I am ready to step into my responsibility as a creator here in the world and to create community, create culture, and just seeing that there's more for me to step into, more power, more sovereignty”. - Leslie Grace [31:12:014]  About Leslie Grace:  Meet Leslie Grace, RN, a dynamic journey alchemist, soul mentor, and co-author of a Wall Street Journal Bestseller, leading a transformative movement for visionary leaders and entrepreneurs.   She empowers individuals to confront their inner demons and unlock their full potential as heart-centered creators of a brilliant collective future.

It is what moves the sun and the other stars.” – Abigail L. RosenthalJerry and Abigail remind us that truth is not always found in the dominant worldview. Often, it comes from moments that break through: a glance, a conversation, a shared fight for something that matters.This intimate dialogue speaks to those who live at the edge of conventional categories, those who are spiritual but not religious, seekers of meaning, lovers of wisdom.If you've ever felt there must be more to love than psychology, more to life than surface logic, this is your episode.Begin here.

On Episode 121 I speak with Gia Prism. Gia is a trance medium, one through whom Spirit speaks. As a psychic medium and an inter-dimensional channel, Gia is a portal to the other side, opening the door that separates the worlds and facilitating a dialogue between the living and all that lies beyond. She uses her abilities as a teacher, healer, and channel to help audiences heal and walk the path of ascension through live events and on TikTok, where she speaks on the spiritual aspect of current events. I only just started following Gia back in like February or so as she was regularly speaking on national politics through a spiritual perspective which I found comforting and affirming. We had an interesting conversation about her early years being raised in a Mormon home and being diagnosed with mental illness while not realizing her psychic gifts. She woke up to her gifts over 15 years ago and now is a gifted trance channeler, unapologetic about the messages Spirit gives her. I appreciate her gifts and was grateful for her time. :)  To learn more about me (Karen) and the work that I do, go to rebalancewithreiki.com - if you are local to Northern NJ and you'd like to check out my store front you can visit my page moonmagicwellness.com.

Questions? Comments? Text Us!In this special episode of The Life Wisdom Project Jerry L. Martin is joined by acclaimed horror author, essayist, and religious thinker Matt Cardin for a profound exploration of divine duality, Zoroastrian cosmology, and the moral landscape of good and evil.Together, they dive into God's revelations to the prophet Zoroaster as recounted in God: An Autobiography, As Told to a Philosopher, unpacking a worldview where life is not a passive unfolding — but an active battlefield between light and darkness, truth and illusion. Through the lens of Zoroastrianism and Manichaean thought, the conversation traces how spiritual maturity demands we choose a side — not in tribal allegiance, but in moral clarity and existential responsibility.Matt Cardin brings his unique background at the crossroads of religion, metaphysical horror, and philosophical inquiry to the fore. The episode confronts some of the most challenging spiritual insights from the book, including:“Most spiritually attuned people are not truth seekers.”“To look evil in the face is a spiritual act.”“My aspects have a life of their own and go wayward.”These statements form the foundation for a dialogue about spiritual integration, shadow work, divine self-awareness, and the lived tension between peace and calamity — as illustrated in both Zoroaster's vision and Isaiah 45, where God declares, “I form the light and create darkness.”The episode also explores how horror writing, when used with spiritual intent, can serve as a radical form of not turning away — of confronting the hidden, the repressed, the divine and monstrous within. Cardin's reflections on Jung, Freud, and the archetypal struggle for integration are especially resonant for seekers navigating complexity in both self and cosmos.Whether you're drawn to Zoroastrian theology, psychological integration, or the spiritual function of horror literature, this conversation invites you to experience divine reality with open eyes — and a willingness to face the truth, however unsettling it may be.Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:From God To Jerry To You- a brand-new series calling for the attention of spiritual seekers everywhere, featuring breakthroughs, pathways, and illuminations.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God- sit in on a dialogue between philosophers about God and the questions we all have. What's On Our Mind- Connect the dots with Jerry and Scott over the most recent series episodes. What's On Your Mind- What are readers and listeners saying?

Episode 120: The Plan B Chronicles: Divorce, Defiance, Liberation I had Meredith as a guest here on the podcast last June, episode 113 Taylor Swift and the Divine Feminine. We have since gotten to know each other a little better and when I heard that she was promoting her new book, I wanted to support her in spreading the word.  In The Plan B Chronicles: Divorce, Defiance, Liberation, psychotherapist Meredith Beardmore delivers a raw and compelling memoir chronicling her journey through betrayal, healing, and self-discovery. After discovering her husband's infidelity, Meredith's life spirals into chaos, challenging everything she thought she knew about love, trust, and personal strength. Drawing from her professional experience in therapy and somatic healing, Beardmore navigates the emotional wreckage while offering readers valuable insights and practical tools for overcoming similar challenges. Through her path of somatic therapy, spiritual awakening, and ultimately reclaiming her personal power, Meredith's memoir is a candid, inspiring account of how the darkest moments in life can lead to profound transformation. This book serves as both a healing guide and a story of empowerment, making it essential reading for modern women questioning their own relationships and seeking a way forward. I was happy to read a copy of her book last weekend- she is a great writer and storyteller and I loved the way she wove it all together… Nevermind the sprinkling in of messages from spirit and divine interventions along the way! Right up my alley! She did a beautiful job of making magic from her hardship and in turn will help loads of others who are on a similar journey. Meredith Beardmore is a licensed psychotherapist, author, and the creator of the YouTube channel Mend with Mere. Her second book, The Plan B Chronicles: Divorce. Defiance. Liberation., is a fierce and funny collection of essays about heartbreak, single motherhood, and rewriting your future when life blows up the blueprint. She's also the author of Hey Addiction, Thanks for Nothing: A Brutally Honest Guide to Loving an Addict Without Losing Your Mind, inspired by her years of supporting families of addicts—both professionally and personally. Meredith holds a master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from The Ohio State University and integrates ACT, CBT, mindfulness, and expressive arts into her therapeutic work. Her writing has appeared in The Huffington Post, Buzzfeed, and Colman McCarthy's Teaching Peace.

On Episode 119, I speak with Kate Olson who is a priestess and Seidr practitioner whose work is centered around reclaiming the sacred feminine and reintegrating the feminine into our collective consciousness and our individual lives. Sitting at the intersection of history, psychology, and spirituality Kate weaves together the Pre-Christian traditions of Northern Europe and the Lineage of The Rose to hold truly transformational spaces. I learned about Kate through the Instagram algorithms somehow along the way. Her handle is @themysticinthewoods and I just appreciated the sharpness in which she delivers information and how much that she knows, and that she's a scholar. She's a great teacher, she's down to Earth, she's fun and full of information! We speak about so many things, but notably the Witch Wound and the church's creation of the Devil! It's all so fascinating.
