    When does life truly begin? Explore the fascinating intersection of science and scripture as we uncover the importance of our first breath, guided by Genesis 2:7. You'll discover how the breath of life is not just a physical act but a profound spiritual moment, linking the birth and the essence of life to the Holy Spirit. We'll also discuss the poignant moment of death, where the cessation of breath marks the end of our earthly journey, intertwining physical and spiritual realities in a meaningful exploration.

    Moreover, we offer insights into living a truly abundant life with Jesus, inspired by John 10:10 and Colossians 1:27. Learn how recognizing God's presence within us can shape our choices, leading to a life brimming with love, joy, and purpose. Through practical examples and scriptural wisdom, we shed light on how to make the most of the "dash" on your tombstone—the time between birth and death.

    May 4 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Embark with us as we navigate the intricate landscapes of Hell and the afterlife, illuminated through the lens of evangelical Christianity. Unravel the nuances of "Four Views on Hell," where theologians debate the destinies awaiting us beyond life's veil. With each perspective — from the traditional fire-and-brimstone to the merciful annihilation or the hope of universal salvation — our conversation probes deeper into the theological underpinnings that have both comforted and confounded believers through the ages. As your host, I open up about my own gravitation toward universalism combined with temporal purification and cleansing and invite you to weigh its compassionate rationale against the backdrop of eternal suffering.

    Our journey doesn't shy away from the pivotal moments that define our spiritual trajectory. Imagine standing before a manifestation of pure love and mercy, tasked with a choice that echoes into eternity. Through scriptural passages, we confront the beauty and the dread of this decision, juxtaposing the embrace of divine love with the abyss of its rejection. We consider the transformative encounter with the divine, embodied by Jesus, and how one's response could seal their fate, as I share my conviction in the overwhelming allure of such love.

    Finally, we turn inward, contemplating the assurance that faith in Jesus provides, despite our imperfect understanding. Reflecting on the nature of faith and the character of God as revealed in scripture, we touch upon the comfort and promise of Revelation's vision of a pain-free existence under God's loving gaze. As we wrap up this episode, I encourage you to mull over these profound concepts and join the conversation, sharing how your own reflections on faith and afterlife resonate with the ideas we've traversed together.

    Mar 28 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Have you ever found yourself pondering the origins of our connection with the divine, or how our choices shape our existence? Embarking on a narrative voyage with Love Boomerang, we explore these metaphysical curiosities within the realms of an imaginative creation story. In our latest podcast episode, we walk alongside Jeremiah, a representation of humanity's awakening consciousness, as they emerge into a sensory world filled with wonder and the daunting task of understanding identity, purpose, and the divine connection that threads through our very being. By sharing Jeremiah's experience of naming the elements of life and meeting their kindred spirit, Ima, we peel back layers of what it means to truly exist as part of a larger, intricately woven tapestry of life and love.

    As the journey unfolds, Ima and Jeremiah's tale takes us through the lush, yet treacherous gardens of temptation and the struggle with choice and consequence. Their story, deeply resonant of timeless allegories, reveals the visceral emotions of fear and shame that accompany disobedience and the loss of innocence. However, the heart of our episode lies in the powerful narrative of redemption, where the figure of Abba's parental love mirrors the unconditional nature of divine compassion. Through the allegory of a generational curse and the redemptive arc that follows, we reflect on the extraordinary lengths to which love will go to protect and uplift, drawing an intimate parallel between our human experiences and the boundless grace that defines our collective journey. Join us as we ponder these profound themes and consider the unwavering bond we share with creation, our creator, and each other.

  • Perception and Divinity: Exploring the Nature of God Through True Repentance
    Mar 9 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Have you ever wondered if your perception of the divine is clouded by the lenses through which you view the world? Prepare to embark on a spiritual odyssey that reframes our understanding of God's nature, as we engage in a deeply insightful conversation about the power of perception in shaping our theology. Our perceptions act as a prism, bending and coloring our views on spirituality, influencing our actions, emotions, and beliefs. With a focus on 'seem' and its profound connection to our belief in what God is like, this episode invites you to contemplate whether the act of repentance is less about turning from sin and more about transforming how we see the divine. We also entertain the fascinating idea that the consumption of the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge could have been a deliberate move in a larger divine plan to enhance human perception, prompting you to consider how you appear to God and vice versa.

    Continuing our journey into the heart of spirituality, we delve into the contrasting images of God as an embodiment of love or as a dispenser of punishment, with insights gleaned from scripture such as 1 John 4-8 and James 2-13. Our dialogue highlights the importance of adopting a perspective that sees God mirrored in the character of Jesus—a figure of unbounded mercy and love. By embracing this view, we posit that our actions and relationships with others should be infused with forgiveness and compassion, reflecting the benevolent nature of the divine. This episode is an invitation to carry the profound teachings of mercy into every interaction, transforming not just personal faith but also the fabric of our collective human experience. Join us for an episode that promises a transformative shift in how we perceive and live out our spiritual convictions.

  • A Journey Towards Inclusive Divinity in Modern Worship
    Mar 2 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Embark on an enlightening journey through the spiritual and scriptural landscape as we grapple with a question that's as ancient as faith itself: How do we understand the gender of the Divine? In this episode, I peel back layers of historical context and theological discourse, inviting you to consider a God who transcends our gender binaries. We navigate the Hebrew scriptures, revealing how terms like 'adam' reflect a God whose image is not confined to male or female, but encompasses a broader spectrum—challenging us to expand our perceptions and language around the divine.

    Witness a profound shift in spiritual narrative as we examine the cultural implications of God's masculine portrayal and how it intersects with gender equality in our sacred spaces. Insights from contemporary works like "The Shack" bring fresh perspectives, portraying God with a nurturing femininity that defies traditional norms and prompts a wider conversation on inclusivity. By embracing a God who embodies love and compassion beyond gendered constraints, we pave the way for a more welcoming and representative spiritual community, affirming that the message of the gospel is, indeed, for everyone. Join us for a conversation that promises to not only deepen your faith but also inspire a more inclusive embrace of the Divine.

  • Redefining God's Judgment and Punishment Through the Lens of Love
    Feb 21 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Embark on an enlightening quest with us as we unravel the essence of divine love and its role in shaping our understanding of God's judgment. Venture beyond conventional beliefs to embrace a narrative where God's discipline is likened to that of a nurturing parent, not the harbinger of eternal punishment. As we dissect the notion of being made in God's image, we confront the illogical notion of predestined condemnation and the idea of an inherent sin nature. Using the book of Colossians as our foundation our discussion veers toward the empowering belief that each of us contains a divine spark, and that life, rather than death, is our ultimate destiny. We examine scriptural affirmations in the book of Hebrews to show our intrinsic value and God's loving correction, drawing parallels to the nurturing guidance provided by loving earthly parents. Through this lens, we perceive a God whose essence is love, offering us pathways to growth and transformation.

    The journey continues as we grapple with the idea of purification in place of condemnation, proposing a vision of God's discipline that is temporary and corrective, mirroring the way we, as parents, aim to steer our children towards betterment. With a deep dive into the meaning behind Romans 8:1, we unpack the profound implication that through Christ's reconciliatory sacrifice, grace is a universal gift. This episode is an invitation to reconsider and share a perspective of grace that holds no room for condemnation, setting the stage for our future discussions on the misconceptions surrounding original sin and the reinterpretations of 'hell'. Join us as we forge ahead, hopeful and inspired by the ever-present divine within.

Our dialogue is a testament to the importance of communicating salvation through a lens of love and joy, mirroring Christ's own approach.
