Spiritual Nomad is a podcast for seekers with a curious mind and open heart, exploring the landscape of spirituality in pursuit of deeper meaning and authentic inner realization.
Since 2017, host Luke Bricker has shared openly about the evolution of his own spiritual path, while inviting listeners into conversations and reflections on mystic Christianity, contemplative practice, and inter-spiritual wisdom.
While the podcast originally began during a season of evangelical deconstruction, it has since grown with Luke's journey to integrate themes from Advaita Vedanta, Zen Buddhism, Kashmir Shaivism, A Course in Miracles, Gnosticism, and Western Esoteric traditions.
Spiritual Nomad seeks to offer a thoughtful space for seekers to glean from both ancient wisdom and modern expressions of the spiritual journey.
If you are drawn to meditation, mysticism, and the evolving story of spirituality in our time, you will find a home here.

Does "Universe" = God?
Tuesday Feb 25, 2020
Tuesday Feb 25, 2020

In this video I share my thoughts about using the term "Universe" synonymously with "God" If you're familiar with Christianity, using these words interchangeably is a major issue! As I've journeyed further into #MysticChristianity and #Interfaith spirituality I've come to embrace the value of intentionally using the "Universe" as "God" A friend once explained to me the correlation between Universe and Jesus Christ as described by John; "Uni" = one "Verse" = word Universe = "One Word" The Word became flesh and dwelt among us who was one with God, i.e. The Universe became flesh and blood and showed us The Way (Jesus uses this exact language) to live into our own individual Universe Incarnation. As #AlanWatts famously said, we are the universe experiencing itself! Jesus was a prototype to show us the same experience of Oneness offered to each of us.

But, What If I Don't "Feel" Very Spiritual Today?
Monday Oct 07, 2019
Monday Oct 07, 2019

In this episode, I talk about the reality that not every moment of every day is "bliss" and that's OK!
When we don't feel connected spiritually we need to listen to that and not force a spiritual practice, or worse, simply "act" super spiritual.
Let me know what your "right foot, left foot" practice is when you feel spiritually out of balance.
