One more thing... What about āwhat would Jesus do?ā Donāt you feel that we should fight feelings like anger, jealousy..?
What do you make of all the things people experience in near death experiences?
dude. DUDE. this is what I was writing to myself about last weekend, what Iāve been feeling for a while. spooky. come up to the Bay Area! you have fans here. - Tess
I still think about this episode a lot. I am a person with constant ideas. And Iām always disappointed in some way when I bring them to life. Itās so good to hear that itās a normal ans good thing. Also I love the idea of seeing everything, even the mundane, as part of the art piece. I am inspired to play the long game and accept circumstances and people as they are not as I want them to be.
This is life changing. I have listened to it 3 times. I offer up my estranged sonās childhood.
Also...in listening to this the second time around... I want to know the WHOLE ROB BELL. It will not change my perception of you. And I really admire your audacity in all youāve done. Grief is also part of joy...like you say in that one tour.
After I listened to this Rob cast, I listened to the Quartet for the End of Time. Stunningly beautiful!
Iāve been burned so many times at so many jobs. I donāt even have a career and Iām in my 30s. I know you always say itās not too late. But thereās trauma in what you go through and itās real. How can you deal with that? I tried journalism, wanting to give voices to others. I still believe Iām meant to write. Iāve been involved in a screenplay group since youāve released this episode. Itās less lonely. But still not making the bills.
WARNING Some listeners may find this episode challenging, disturbing or triggering. At least half of this episode is about the death of the podcasterās father.
This episode touched me deeply. I lost the love of my life after being with him for only 5 years. He disappeared just like that, a sudden heart attack. Listening to someoneā genuine grief and authenticity is so luminous ā¦ Thank You so much !
Rob, you already know this, but I LOVE you AND your family. Youāre just as amazing as your dad, if not more, in my opinion.
Sorry to hear about your dadās passing Rob. I know exactly where youāre coming from mate, take care.
When you did this, it was actually the tallest building in the Southern Hemisphere. Someone in Indonesia built a slightly taller building in 2022, so it only just lost the tallest title :)
blinded for 3 days sounds like jesus being dead for 3 days ! 3 days blind ...the sight received 3 days dead ...on the third day risen
Hey Rob Bell! What kind of a doctor told you that youād blown all your fuses? I need one of those!
Rob Bell! Plenty of us ready to sign up if you come to Europe!
Five years later and I still want to know what you and Caleb talked about when you shut the microphone off. But I agree. He should write a book about the afterlife, not as a defense, but to tell stories about funeral directors and their experiences and stories.
I had a dream where you told me to listen to this podcast right before you released it. It ended it up being so helpful. Now Iāve been still healing from a lost love and work trauma. A lot of voices can interfere with you listening to you. Iām doing what I need to do and have a ways to go and am getting closer. But I need to keep listening...to me. So thank you.
Awesome my first time on your podcast! Read your books but this is real time! Working on some amazing miracles that have been given to me by letting go and letting god!
Skunk on the beach! Ok here is why you told that story. You made my DAY!š¤£ššššš. Best day ever! Riding my bicycle to work through a forest preserve a deer 5 beautiful full grown deer bounding across three path. THEN I get to the story on the beach Andi laughed the entire test off the way to work. Thank you!!
Thank you for introducing me to Pete Holmes. You 2 are gold.
Hi Rob, you sounded quite emotional during the the talk. Thank you for sharing something which affecting you so deeply. Xx
Thank you Rob for introducing me to Joseph š
Mr & Mrs Bell, this is a corker or should I say doozy! ā¤ļø Love it when youāre on board Kristen āŗļø
English is my extension language. I am Brazilian. The way you speak helps me understand the audio really well and makes it clear. thanks
Hiya Rob, from the land of OZ... We finished listening to episode 328 of your RobCast āThe Heroineās Journeyā & weāre GOBSMACKED at the similtudes with our most recent blog āRhythmās of LifeĀ #2Ā - The Adventure Within & Withoutā which has been 12 months in the making ( Link in bioĀ @ashrawartĀ on instagram) & with our own creative personal and collective journey.Ā Ashton & CoĀ šššĀ [Founder AshRawArt | Visual Artistry & Production]
Love the Brighton train anecdoteš Classic!
Such an amazing conversation!!
Iāve listened again and again to this episode. Iām still getting over a relationship that ended and a career that didnāt go how I thought. Redefining who I am isnāt easy. I love how you pointed out Lizās address of you as Pastor Rob. Itās given me an abstract way to think about what Iām going through. Chrisā girlfriend. Journalist. Such hard stuff.
WoW, now you got me wondering along with youā¦ what an interesting question. Have you perhaps come across and sort of answer to this?
Confidence in trying, I like that. I just try to go on a straight line and keep level.
Sometimes itās not bad and good, but then and now. Just what I needed to hear.
Thank you for this episode enjoyed the polyphonic spree reference!!
Whelp good thing I listened to Tia because I was thinking of how I could force/manipulate/ my son Into listening to āThat which is set before youā. Thank you Rob Bell!!!! Good thing we can laugh.
Rob, I so needed to hear a voice of reason! I actually attempted suicide because I canāt get my head around how Christians are behaving in all of this? How can I continue to love them. I barely go to church anymore! Thank you for helping me understand Iām not alone! I agree wholeheartedly with you!
Sorry Rob I just want to make it clear that these questions come from a place of wanting to understand. I listen to you when I need to breath š
