You cannot see it, hear it, or touch it and yet you know you have a soul. Can we use our outer physical senses as a pathway to our inner spiritual senses? In this episode, host Curtis Childs guides us through the revelations about the mind-body-soul connection that eighteenth-century philosopher Emanuel Swedenborg had during his spiritual experiences. Throughout his vast theological and philosophical writings, Swedenborg devotes much attention to meticulously describing the composition and inner workings of our bodies and souls.

Curtis Childs is the digital media producer at the Swedenborg Foundation, a nonprofit organization whose goal is to spread eighteenth-century philosopher Emanuel Swedenborg’s timeless message of hope to all. While obtaining his degree in communication studies from Oakland University, Curtis experienced an internal battle with depression that led him to question God, existence, and his lifelong interest in Swedenborgian theology. After a period of intense suffering, he recovered from his depression with the help of modern medicine, therapy, and a return to the spiritually uplifting messages he found in Swedenborg’s writings. Now, Curtis is applying his education and desire to help others find peace through Swedenborg’s insights by producing and hosting a weekly webcast called Swedenborg and Life on the offTheLeftEye YouTube channel. Each week, Curtis and his behind-the-scenes team pour their talents and passions into creating a new episode for a worldwide audience that focuses on spiritual and societal topics such as the afterlife, angels and spirits, near-death experiences, overcoming worldly issues, and more.
