Episode 135: A space within God

from Mid-faith Crisis Hosted by Nick Page & Joe Davis

Welcome back to Lockdown everyone! And welcome back to our discussion of creation and where it all has come from. How do you square a loving God with an often brutal creation? What about nature red in tooth and claw? We look at how loving means allowing freedom to the beloved, explore the concept of tsimtsum and wonder ‘what are we to make of all this?’ It’s a bit of a quotefest, and more than a little mind-mangling at times. But if you need cheering up, listen to the ending! John V Taylor, The Christlike God Excerpt on ‘Tsimtsum’ William C. Placher, Narratives of a Vulnerable God https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tzimtzum

I'm Patti and it's been said - many times - that I talk too much. I'm a teacher, author, nature lover and for ten years I owned a coffeehouse cafe where my faith in the goodness of humans was restored every day. This podcast highlights the awesomeness of humanity - er...outside the warmongers, globalists, tyrants and politicians in general. You know, the rest of us weird, quirky and sometimes hilarious humans. We'll talk woo, probe mysteries and leave you thinking about something more interesting or entertaining or uplifting than your grocery list, or boss or that oil change your car needs. I talk too much because I can't help my Gemini moon and Leo Rising nature. I do a podcast because it's cheaper, funnier and more productive than therapy.
