But, What If I Don't "Feel" Very Spiritual Today?

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. Website: TheSpiritualNomad.org Instagram: @The_Spiritual_Nomad

Mystic & Progressive Christianity: What's The Difference?

Someone sent me a DM on Instagram asking what the difference is between mystic and progressive Christianity. I thought it would be a good idea to make a podcast / youtube video based on my response. The short answer, if think holistically, is: Mystic = soul / spirit Progressive = body & mind Connect with me online! TheSpiritualNomad.org Instagram: @The_Spiritual_Nomad Twitter: @Luke_Bricker

How To Have Difficult Dialogue While Deconstructing and/or Reconstructing Your Faith

In this episode Luke shares 3 ways we can have healthy confrontations with people who are having trouble understanding our deconstruction or not fond of the way we are reconstruing our faith, beliefs, and values. Here are the points: 1. Don't take their frustration personally. *Most* of the time their anger is about the idea/theology, not you as an individual person. 2. Exercise immense emotional intelligence and have a lot of empathy. This is hard, but crucial! 3. Don't second guess your path based on someone else's opinion! Join me online!
