Welcome to Season Three! I'm celebrating with a long episode.. Enjoy!
We've all heard someone say they were 'spiritual but not religious.' It seems more of us join that category each year. In this episode I talk about the rise in spiritualty, and what that means for the world.

SHOW NOTES
Quotes:
“The main requirement for spiritual growth: A yearning to know who you really are.” - Adyashanti
"Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice." - Steve Jobs
“Make your own Bible. Select and collect all the words and sentences that in all your readings have been to you like the blast of a trumpet.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson
“In the religious sphere, many people have observed that these kind of changes seem to happen every 500 years—a period of upheaval followed by a period of settling down, then codification, and then upheaval again because we do not like to be codified.” Phyllis Tickle, author of The Great Emergence: How Christianity is Changing and Why (from an article in the Vancouver Sun article)
"People are looking for a new and different encounter with God. The strength of Protestantism was its rationalism—it took religion to the head. But today people want religion that also touches their hearts. It’s not anti-intellectual; mind and reason are still very important. But people want more than just an intellectual challenge. They want something that moves them emotionally, as well. It is bringing the heart and the head together." Phyllis Tickle, author of The Great Emergence: How Christianity is Changing and Why
