Welcome to our new series on the Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head podcast. I’m Richard Lloyd Jones. We’re calling this series Healing Through Consciousness. An abstract title, perhaps. In our western civilization, with its over-emphasis on the material solutions for disease of pills, surgery, vaccines, righting our chemical imbalances and tweaking our diets, it’s possible we’ve

Welcome to Episode 17 – our final episode – of the Modern Relevance of God Podcast Series on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head. I’m Richard Lloyd Jones. You know, as I think about it, 17 is kind of an odd number for the final episode in a series about spirituality, isn’t it? It’s not particularly

How many times have you heard this phrase: “I don’t believe in God anymore because how could a loving God allow all this misery on Earth?” Usually it’s a Bruce Willis-like character in a war zone in some desolate African country squinting his eyes and muttering weightily, “God abandoned this place a long time ago.”

Can God and science exist together? I think that’s a fundamental question. I’ve heard some of the more vocal scientists proclaiming that a belief in God is the sign of a weak mind. Well, one thing I’ve discovered: the deeper I delve into the theological and philosophical knowledge, the more I encounter rather brilliant minds,
