Continuing our discussion about his new book, Byron delves into religion today, how "Open Theism" plays an important role in how we confront evil, and how the Urantia Book offers a lifeline to modern Christianity.

In part 1 of our two-part interview, Urantia student and researcher-author Byron Belitsos shares insight on his new book on how, over the past two millennia, great thinkers have attempted to explain why God allows evil to exist. Byron joins us to discuss the points of his latest book, "The Truth About Evil, Sin and the Demonic: Toward an Integral Theodicy."

We look at what Providence means in terms of the growth of the Supreme Being.

In this episode, we look at the youth problem and what is happening in our society due to secularism, even to the point where young people are no longer connected to "the inner world" where they learn meanings, values, ethics, and moral character. The revelators warned us what would happen if we don't teach basic truths to our young.

In this episode, we talk about the young generation and the "nones" who have no need for religion and yet are among the hopeless many who suffer from anxiety and general apathy. What does the Urantia Book offer to these people, and what is the value of Joy in life?

Plus, thoughts on Bill Sadler and his contribution to the Urantia Book's early beginnings.

In honor of Easter Sunday, from Paper 171:8 I read the story of "As Jesus Passed By" and what this God-man was like as he lived among men and women in his day.

It's a short story, but perhaps one you have not heard before.

The Revelators tell us we have the unique distinction of being a 'decimal planet,' one in ten where new attempts at life-differentiation and diversity is allowed to be pursued in life implantation. In other words, we live on an experimental planet.

Here are fifteen things that make us different from other evolutionary worlds of time and space.

From Paper 49, we learn all about the different kinds of will creatures who evolve on different planets throughout the universe. What makes this even more interesting is the common fact that all will creatures of soul potential have a special gland in their brain that makes our spiritual life even possible, what the Urantia Book calls the "citadel of the mind."

Part 3 of the Urantia starts with the history of our world, including a brief introduction to the beginnings of the nebula that gave birth to our sun. It's a fascinating trip back into the far reaches of time to witness the creation of Christ Michaels's universe, of which we are a part.

This episode puts into perspective the relative meaning of time, the vastness of space, and the effort that goes into universe-building.

In this episode, we talk about the modern definition of what it means to be a Prophet. Plus, from Paper 111 we discuss the Human Paradox from the perspective of a Guardian Angel.
