    The Problem of Evil (Part 2)

    The Problem of Evil (Part 2)

    We wrap our discussion of evil and suffering with a look at some other sorts of responses to the problem and a reflection on where we land personally. If you haven't heard part 1, start there first.

    Due to the subject and the tone of this conversation, these episodes do not include a beverage tasting.

    Content note: this conversation includes discussion of evil and suffering and is probably not suitable for children. Though we try to avoid explicit extreme examples where possible, there is mention of specific instances of harm, including to children.

    The Servant-Child Mindset

    The Servant-Child Mindset

    In this message, Pastor Caleb discusses the importance of being a servant of God as well as a child of God.  When a Christian has the mindset of being a servant and a child victory will come.  Serving God and knowing the inheritance that is available as a child of God establishes a true relationship with Him.

    More about your host:

    Alicia is a mumma of four. She has been a lawyer since 2001 and has transformed from being an exhausted perfectionist workaholic to now living a life of delicious chaos, juggling mum life alongside her own legal business and her spiritual wellness business. 

    In March 2012, while hanging out the washing, Alicia started to spontaneously channel one of her Spirit Guides, an Ascended Master called Goenga who spoke to her using her own voice (like Whoopi Goldberg in the movie, Ghost). This was the start of her channeling journey. 

    Six years later, Alicia pushed through her massive fear about what people would think and honoured her calling. She came out of the ‘spiritual closet’ and shared with her friends and family that she is a Channeler. She now channels a team of guides and angels and has founded the Global Soul Centre.

    Alicia loves to help people to thrive, enjoy life more and reconnect with their soul and remember who they really are - eternal pure love and magnificent light beings. 

    Alicia has written a book called, PURE ENERGY - The Busy Women’s Energy Guide to Thrive. She has a passion to help humans understand themselves as energetic beings.

    Alicia lives with her family in the Dandenong Ranges in Victoria, Australia.

    The AI Takeover: A Conversation w/ Dr. Derek C. Schuurman

    The AI Takeover: A Conversation w/ Dr. Derek C. Schuurman

    The rise of artificial intelligence has happened at a startlingly rapid rate, and it seems like it's only accelerating by the month. Whether it's AI writing (plagiarizing) college papers and lazy pastors' sermons,  potentially curing horrific diseases, making fake humans, or taking over the world, we all have an endless amount of questions when it comes to what to expect from AI.

    Dr. Derek C. Schuurman is a computer science professor at Calvin University and has written extensively on the rise of AI and what a Christian's proper response to it might be. In this episode, we talk to Derek about all of those questions and more. Cheers!

    In this episode, we tasted Fortaleza Anejo Tequila. To skip the tasting, jump to 8:27.

    The Art of Devotion and the Black Madonna with Stephanie Georgieff

    The Art of Devotion and the Black Madonna with Stephanie Georgieff

    "The Black Madonna represents a time of direct connection.  She is the spiritual connector.  She is the energy behind creation. We are to bring our thinking into our heart and have this influence our deeds" - Stephanie Georgieff,  The Black Madonna: Mysterious Soul Companion

    Stephanie Georgieff is the host of the Black Madonna Speaks Podcast.  We had a most marvellous and deep conversation about her work, books and her journey with the Black Madonna.   The questions and quotes from this episode are related to her book The Black Madonna: Mysterious Soul Companion if you are curious to know more.  

    Black Madonnas are scattered all over the globe, yet Italy is one of the places they seem to proliferate (France and Spain too).  You can visit places like Venice, Positano, Loreto, Rome, Tropea, Naples and Sicily to see the shrines and sacred sites, if of course you haven’t already.  

    There are Marian trails and pilgrimage routes all over Italy and a vast history that has many people exploring Europe and beyond to know more.  Stephanie’s devotion to uncovering the heart of the Black Madonna is quite a triumph.  She describes herself as a practical mystic and each week on her Podcast shares a unique story, of a unique Black Madonna, from a unique place at  The Black Madonna Speaks

    You are welcome to email me at 23colours@gmail.com if you would like to share your story or experience of The Black Madonna….

    Science and Religion Walk Into a Bar

    Science and Religion Walk Into a Bar

    Are science and religion compatible? Should there be any crossover whatsoever? Why is it dangerous when we try to make our science fit into our religion? These are questions that Randy and Kyle chat about in our latest episode. Kyle strongly thinks that science and religion are in completely different categories and should almost never mix. Randy likes the "almost" in that statement.

    The guys really, honestly tried to have a debate in this episode...we'll see if they were successful.

    The resources mentioned in this episode are:

    The whiskey we tasted in this episode is the outstanding (for the price) Smoke and Sea by Oppidan.

    To skip the tasting, go to 8:26.

    You can find the transcript for this episode here.

    Content note: this episode contains some mild profanity.

    E197: Neil McKinley- Learning to settle into whatever is happening

    E197: Neil McKinley- Learning to settle into whatever is happening

    In Neil's Own words:

    "I have spent more than twenty-five years immersed in the practice of meditation. This span includes leading events of 100+ people both in-person and online. Through this time, I have also been a parent and partner, a teacher, author and competitive swim coach. In recent years, 'survivor' has been added to this list as I recover from a relationship with a dysfunctional spiritual mentor. 
    This last piece lends a compelling and affirming sense of story to my discussion of meditation. Talking about what I went through in that relationship, speaking to how I am recovering from this experience, and sharing how all of this is animating my work in remarkable new ways communicates much to listeners. First, that turning toward the difficult in our lives can reveal fresh perspectives and direction to us. Second, that meditation has much to offer our ‘turning toward’ process.  

    Put another way, all I’ve been through of late suggests that our lives - our lives as they are - hold an inner wisdom that has much to offer us as individuals and more. And meditation can play an important role in our deepening relationship with this wisdom, our deepening relationship with the path we are born to express. In many ways, these revelations now form the core of the story and work I’d like to share with you all"
