387- Part 2-The Hell we Don’t See

“Who gave you your definition of Hell? If it came from Institutional Religion, then it’s likely very different than the teachings of the bible.

In today’s podcast and post we continue our series as I reveal how Church history, fiction and Hollywood have created a version of Hell that is irresistible to economies of religion. By displacing Hell solely to another dimension after we die, Hell’s captivity keeps expanding through invisibility.

Join me now as I reveal the Hell Jesus taught about, and how that helps us see how our modern assumptions about Hell, are the most common forms of captivity in it.

385-Part 1- Obsessed with Hell

“Are you or someone you know obsessed with Hell? The truth might surprise you.

In today’s podcast and post I introduce a new series on Hell which will extract it from religious and cultural frameworks and will allow us to see just how obsessed with Hell we actually are.

Join me now as we see beyond the mythological and follow the stream back to the headwaters of a universal influence of which we just won’t let go.

379- One Hundred Twenty Seventh

“Do you feel like our world is heading in the right direction? 

This is not merely a political question. It’s much bigger. In today’s podcast and post, I will continue in our series of Psalms Greatest Hits with a look at the 127th Psalm. All of human history has ideas about how our cities and countries should be governed.

Join me now as we compare the trajectory of this simple Psalm to the trajectory of the modern world and test if there is any part of us which is able to see beyond everything.

377-Donkey King

“What’s the point of Palm Sunday? Churches refer to this event as the triumphal entry, but what was so triumphant, since the powers of religion and State were clearly going to crucify him?”

In today’s podcast and post we look closer at the prophesy of Zechariah and how Jesus willfully fulfilled it as he went straight into Jerusalem to “poke the bear”.

Join me now to explore how this display of power should have been the end of religion as we know it. Come and see how humility and sacrificial love are the most subversive powers the world has ever known.

364-Questions for Spiritual Renewal

“Do you have sense like you need to get your life on track spiritually? Is it possible to have spiritual renewal without getting sucked into a religion, a cult, or become weird?”

In today’s podcast and post I am going to unpack five questions that will help you understand how you can find spiritual renewal within the privacy of your own soul and how to navigate a world of competing religions and truth claims.

Join me now as we see beyond the religious containers and all their propaganda, and discover how to extract the contents by following the same voice which has called all people, in all times, and in countless ways.

356- FREE

“Do you believe freedom is obtainable?” That’s a loaded question.

In today’s podcast, post, and video I will explore how freedom comes to us incrementally as we uncover the many layers of captivity which plague our lives. This means we are always chasing some new elusive form of freedom.

Join me now as we learn to see beyond our myopia and illusions about freedom in this life, and explore how ultimate freedom, which we can access now, will ultimately require our death.

355- DECEIVE

“Do you think you know yourself? Most of us do. So, imagine our shock to discover we are all living in self-deceit.

In today’s podcast, post, and video I explore how the entire world has become deceived. I’ll reveal how every problem is a truth problem and how our need for validation traps us in a surface level existence, which promises freedom but never delivers.

Join me now as we probe our own self-deception and I point us to the deconstruction project which leads us to authenticity in the Truth.

352- WORD

“What’s in a word?” 

We skim over countless words everyday with endless communication, but what are we really saying? In today’s podcast, post and video we will contemplate words and follow them back to their Source. 

Join me now as discover how these seemingly innocuous bits of non-empirically based reality, have latent within them, the power to make everything new.

350- FLOW

“Is there really such a thing as a state of flow? Has science really unlocked the secret to mental focus or higher performance? 

If we follow the trajectory of modern “so-called” experts in flow and performance, then we enter a marketplace where we can exchange our self for a super-self and our life for a super-life. We’re told that flow is a heightened conscious state where we gain superpowers allowing us to outperform others and rise to the top. 

What if true flow isn’t derived from more effort and output? Join me now as we see beyond the pseudo flow of performance, and learn that true flow sets us on a course, not for doing, and not even for being, but for seeing?

349-PROTEST

“Is there really such a thing as a peaceful protest? Do you really think the government cares about our feelings?

In today’s post, podcast and video, I will deconstruct what is truly behind our protests, and expose the gravitational force which pulls us into political binaries. Politics is like a spinning carnival ride which forces a pledge of allegiance to the shadowy operator pushing the buttons.

Join me now as we see beyond our protests and expose the path of peace which remains largely unbelieved.
