E101 Spiritual Weirdness: When Faith Gets Funky
In this episode Dr. Merrill G Greene discusses his book "The Weirdness of God" and his journey from a conservative Baptist background to exploring altered states of consciousness in the Bible and contemporary charismatic Christianity. Hosts Brandon and Lindsy engage with Dr. Greene on topics such as the Trinity, the Holy Spirit, and the phenomenon of speaking in tongues. They delve into the theological and experiential aspects of these subjects, emphasizing the importance of an open-mind to God, discernment, and a deep relationship with God in understanding and practicing spiritual gifts.
