3. Thanking God For Making Me Weak

6. Evangelical Christians Always F*ck Up What Jesus Said

Today I chat about Religious Trauma and other fun memories from growing up in Evangelical Christianity and offer another way we can interpret some of those "scary" stories Jesus told. Join patreon.com/holyshitpodcast [patreon.com/holyshitpodcast]

5. Where is God in our Suffering?

Welcome to The Holy shit Podcast where I offer reflections on the Love of God as a beginner on the Christian Contemplative Path - a path that I believe is harmonious with the mystical traditions of all the world's great religions.  If you’d like to stay connected beyond the podcast, I’d love to invite you to join my Patreon community.

4. Below The Surface

Each week I offer my reflections on the love of God as a beginner on the Christian mystical and contemplative path. While Christianity—is my native tongue—this path is not exclusive to Christians. In fact, it flows in deep harmony with the mystical heart of all the world’s great traditions, like the stillness of Zen, the surrender of Sufi Love, the non duality of Advaita,  the sacred silence in indigenous wisdom, ...or the sacred fire of Kabbalah, where every letter, every breath, every crack in the world is a doorway back to the One who is endlessly hidden and endlessly near. You don’t need to be religious, or even spiritual in any traditional sense. The Love I speak of isn’t confined to dogma or doctrine. It’s open to Atheists and Agnostics alike.  It’s the Love that undergirds all of reality—the silent intimacy that holds us even now, beneath our thoughts, behind our striving, before we had names for any of this. So however you come—come as you are as we all dive into the deep into the deep end of The Great Mystical Mystery or as I like to call it - infinitely compassionate and unconditionally affectionate LOVE OF GOD. "If you’d like to stay connected beyond the podcast, I’d love to invite you to join my Patreon community.

My heart is to give this away as a gift, the way the Love we’re exploring is freely given to us. If something you hear stirs you and you feel moved to support the work, there’s an option to give.

3. Thanking God For Making Me Weak

This past week I had a stunning moment in my silent time with God and I discuss that along with what it's like being a brand new student on the Christian Mystical Contemplative Path that falls in sync with all the mystical paths of all the great world traditions. If joining me on (occasional) Sundays with practicing contemplative prayer sounds like something you'd like to do or if you feel stirred to support you can visit my PATREON [PATREON.COM/HOLYSHITPODCAST] BUT if you would like to learn more about contemplative prayer or find a great teaching podcast on this subject - my highest reccomendation would be "Turning to the Mystics" with Dr. James Finley

2. Deconstructing Evangelical

Deconstructing Evangelical to Reconstructing Mystical Contemplative Christian - - well that's a fucking mouthful. But that's my story. Today I'm joined by my friend Georgia and we talk mostly about this then we practice a little contemplation and invite you to join the party. Speaking of joining the party. If you feel stirred to support you can do so on PATREON [PATREON.COM/HOLYSHITPODCAST]
