In this thought-provoking episode, host Scott Langdon and Dr. Jerry L. Martin engage in an honest conversation about the concept of God, divine presence, and absence. They explore the idea of God as both omnipresent and intimately personal, sharing personal experiences ranging from profound connection to moments when God seems distant.
The episode highlights the closing of Jenny's letter, which emphasizes her profound connection with God, offering a refreshing take on a deeply personal divine presence. Listeners also hear from Chris, who candidly expresses feeling ignored by God, as if they can only see God's back. Dr. Jerry L. Martin provides valuable insights and advice on navigating moments of spiritual distress, emphasizing the importance of honest prayer for maintaining a connection with God.
This What's On Your Mind contrasts traditional theological doctrines, such as God's impassibility, with the more personal view of God presented in God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher. Scott and Jerry encourage listeners to explore their spiritual experiences and emotions openly, even if they involve questioning or anger toward God.
Join us for an exploratory episode of the complexities of human-divine relationships with guidance on staying connected with God, even during moments when it may seem like God has turned away.
