Badir Awe - The Emergence of the Artist | Sacred Synergy #15

Badir Awe - The Emergence of the Artist | Sacred Synergy #15

Badir Awe is a filmmaker, producer, entrepreneur, and the founder of Awesome Productions, Ltd. He founded Awesome Productions in 2014, after finally embracing his calling as an artist. Since then, the company has produced countless commercial and client-driven videos, dozens of events, and a slate of independent films—delivering unforgettable stories and creative excellence from the heart of the Cayman Islands. We cover a number of topics, from Badir’s journey into filmmaking, life in Cayman, Teilhard de Chardin, Bitcoin, faith and beyond. One of the things that struck me most from our conversation was Badir sharing about the emergence of the artist within himself. I’m a firm believer that we, as humans, are called to be co-creators in a process of creative transformation.

Robert Nicastro - The Tension of Tradition and the Future | Sacred Synergy #12

Robert Nicastro, PhD, is the Executive Director of the Center for Christogenesis and is a theologian, teacher, and writer whose research explores the convergence of religion, science, and artificial intelligence. His work focuses on how emerging technologies are reshaping human identity, planetary consciousness, and the future of religious thought. His doctoral dissertation, The Future as Sole Support: Metaphysics, Hyperphysics, and the Theology of Teilhard de Chardin, offers a reinterpretation of Teilhard’s cosmic vision as a compelling metaphysical framework for addressing the complex challenges of the twenty-first century. Robert and I discuss how evolutionary theology had an impact on his vocation and how young theologians are living in a moment of tension between tradition and the future of faith and organized religion. Be sure to consider joining Robert, myself, and others from the Teilhardian communities this November of 2026 for the Center for Christogenesis' 10th Anniversary Conference.

Joan McManness - Spiritual Embodiment and Evolution | Sacred Synergy #11

Joan grew up in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and her Mennonite upbringing created a heart for the world. She and her husband and three children lived in Indonesia for 13 years. Upon returning to the United States Joan taught English as a foreign language to adults in her Lancaster County, Pennsylvania community. Currently, Joan is exploring new avenues of faith and volunteering at Lancaster city’s welcome desk for refugees and immigrants. In addition to enjoying biking with her husband, she adores her three adult children and loves spending time with her four grandchildren. She is who connected me with Brian McLaren and John Keane, of earlier episodes. We discuss her work with BioSpiritual Focusing and evolutionary spirituality.
