Urantia Radio

I took a moment to refelct on the upcoming Ascension Day and what it means to me. - When Jesus resurrected, he set certain things in motion that would transform his creation forever, including:- Becoming an esteemed Master Son, reserved for those Sons who bestow themselves as creatures of the realm (7 times)- Sending the Spirit of Truth- Betrothal of the Daughter of the Infinite Spirit- The "Proclamation of Equality" from both the Master Son and The Divine Mother- Establishment of the Michael Memorial on Jerusem- Establishment of the Archangels' Circuit (and headquarters) on our world- A blanket approval of the Father's spirit in the minds of all mortals on Urantia- The creation of the Council of the Twenty-Four Elders on Jerusem- Christ was appointed the Planetary Prince of our world- The authorization of the roll-call of sleeping mortals in our dispensational resurrection- The establishment and completion of he 4th Epochal revelation of truth on Urantia- The embarkation of the next mortal epoch of the people of Urantia - The establishment of the truths which precipitated the religion of Christianity on earth, the only world religion tied directly to the life and teachings of Jesus, the Son of Man and the Son of God.

Stephen C. Meyer was on my podcast a few years ago. He had just written a book and I reached out to him to ask if he would come on my show, which he did.Stephen can be described as a scientist as well as a philosopher. He is also an avid reader of the Urantia Book. Stephen is well versed in the UB, and he smartly uses present science to substantiate and validate spiritual truths found in the Revelation.Today, Stephen has a major movie coming out. It’s called The Theory of Everything, and it proves, through scientific evidence, that is massive evidence that shows man is created by intelligent design, and further,, there is ample evidence to show life did not evolved accidentally. It is also exciting to know the Christian community is supportive of Mr. Meyer works and is involved in promoting the film worldwide. Many Salem Radio hosts (which is a Christian network) are interviewing Stephen this week , he will be across America by millions of people.Stephen's remarkable film is music to ears of a world that has given up on religion, has become spiritually blind and deaf, but still seeks for meaning in life and spiritual truth.Christians are thrilled with Stephen because he gives validation to spiritual truths through analytic practice. He asserts spiritual truths that are apparent if you just point them out, like gravity for example, which an example indication of absolute laws, not random causation.Stephene is an ambassador.This weekend millions of people will see his movie and members of the Urantia community should be thrilled to know Stephen is taking UB truths to mainstream.Here is my interview with Stephen from June 2021.

In this episode, we explore a series of recent mysterious deaths of UFO-UAP scientists connected to government-run extraterrestrial research programs, including several who were about to reveal the extraterrestrial phenomena prior to their deaths.Add to this we discuss a recent article by Anna Michael-Krista on "Aliens" which states the so-called Alien phenomena may be directly connected to spiritual agencies operating on our world, including various Seraphim, Midway perssonalities, and Melchizedeks.Are world leaders covering up the truth behind these so-called "alien contacts”?

Amidst the noise and haste lies a new revelation, but can the Urantia Book save humanity during its most crucial test, or did the Revelator's have something else in mind?In this episode, we talk about the past spiritual epochs and the way our predecessors revealed new truth to the young human minds of a long ago.We talk about The One Hundred teachers (pre-Sumerian), the first epochal revelation; the second epochal age with Adam and Eve; the third epochal revelation with the Melchizedek Mission including choosing Abraham as a spiritual leader, and then there was Jesus and his bestowal mission as the 4th revelation of new truth. What is the common denominator of each epochal revelation? And should we follow the same strategy?Let's explore that strategy.

Today we take listener questions about the Urantia Book.Topics include: Reincarnation, The Adamic Children after the Garden, and will Adam and Eve someday return?Wanna comment or ask a question? Go to urantiaradio.org and leave a comment today.

What happened to Jesus the man during the time between his death on Friday and his rise on Sunday, for this we look to the Urantia Book Paper 188, and included, the final words of the Master before his ascent.

Lessons from Easter, plus a heartfelt look at the history Truth on our world, including ideas about The Second Coming and what we might expect when it happens.We also have a great selection of social media sound clips we can discuss from the perspective of a Urantia Book reader (me), touch-love concepts about how humanity treats the teachers of truth.We dedicate this episode to Jesus, the reason for the season.

Ever wonder what life might be like in a far off place?Let's talk about paper 72 and learn about such a country far, far away...

In this episode we discuss the power of faith and how it played a part in the healing phenomena when Jesus began his second tour (his first real tour accompanied by his newly-trained Apostles and the 100 or so Disciples who followed him).In Paper 149), the Revelators explain how the power of faith makes healing possible.Plus, we look what's trending on Social Media and some of the important discussions people are having about God, spirituality, the Nephilim, and personal growth.

In this exciting episode we discuss the relative nature of time from the perspective of God, who is eternal. This might help us better understand the importance of patience in discerning God's evolutionary plan on our world. Also, a new Jesus movement is underway, and people are moving toward learning more about his actual teachings. We'll look at what social media has to say about the Son of Man.And from Paper 142, we learn how the early followers of Jesus, in trying to appeal to the religious rulers of Palestine, may have sacrificed the saving message of Jesus as he lived and taught the gospel of "fellowship for all peoples, religions and nations."Follow on X @Urantiaradio Visit and join our community at UrantiaRadio.org

Author Jayme Brock joins me to talk about her new book Recipe of Jesus - which examines Jesus' life as it is presented in the Urantia Book, against the backdrop of something called. "The Laws of Natural Order."According to this philosophy, Jayme explains, "When we deviate from the laws that govern the natural order of things, systems break down, and we cannot evade the consequences of our actions."It's a fascinating and uplifting discussion of why things sometimes go wrong, and how Jesus tried to show us this very truth in his life and his teachings.

The Urantia Foundation provided some great insight on its growth in reception. The report shows how the Urantia Book is doing in terms of growth and distribution. The numbers point to solid, steady growth across all sectors of the Urantia community here at home and abroad. Plus, there is an exciting new project underway, and I will share some of the details with you in this episode.Bottom line: The Revelators must be encouraged by the good news. The people of Urantia are receptive to new spiritual truth!

Part of our Personality Profile series, we draw from Paper 118 and specifcially Immanuel's role in universe government. Who are Trinity Ambassadores? what role did they play in the Lucifer rebellion, and what is Michael 's relationship with his "elder brother?"All of this and more revealed in this mind-blowing episode of the Urantia Radio Podcast

Joel Garbon first joined us years ago to talk about his work in bringing the Urantia Book to the UFO communityJoe is also an avid student of the fifth epochal revelation and with the most recent news that the U.S. Government will be giving "disclosure" to what they know and what they can tell us about aliens from other possible worlds here on earth.We'll cover the entire gamut, from Roswell to Ancient aliens, including discussion about higher spirits who may play a role in alien contact.

In our personality profile series we look at Paper 78 and the story of Noah. Was the story of the flood real? The story of Noah serves as a good example of our stories become legend, and eventually sacred. Many biblical stories started out this way, and Paper 78 explains why so much of Jewish history became sacred over time.

Mind is your ship, the Adjuster is your pilot, the human will is captain. The master of the mortal vessel should have the wisdom to trust the divine pilot to guide the ascending soul into the morontia harbors of eternal survival. Only by selfishness, slothfulness, and sinfulness can the will of man reject the guidance of such a loving pilot and eventually wreck the mortal career upon the evil shoals of rejected mercy and upon the rocks of embraced sin. With your consent, this faithful pilot will safely carry you across the barriers of time and the handicaps of space to the very source of the divine mind and on beyond, even to the Paradise Father of Adjusters (your spirit).

Author and lecturer Byron Belitios joins us to discuss next steps in Urantia Book growth, and how we go about finding our target audience for the revelation. As Byron explains, we actually have two products, the book and the gospel; how do we define our message and what the Urantia Foundation (and other Urantia-related groups) should do to reach the right audience to ensure Urantia Book growth and awareness continues.It's a good conversation covering a whole host of Urantia-related topics.

Continuing our discussion on the message of the Urantia Book Let's look at its five basic principles. Plus more discussion about Grandfanda, and a little lesson is cosmic humility.

UBAnnotated.com and UBTheNews Founder Halbert Katzen joins us to discuss his recent trip to Tbilisi, Georgia to speak to people about the Urantia Book. Katzen was invited to present his findings on Microcephalic gene research, and how his findings -and new recent developments - corroborate Urantia Book teachings on early human evolution.

The subject of Spirit Reality, from Paper 12.In this episode, we explore Science and Spirit reality as a personal living experience. The spirit nucleus is real.It's an advanced concept that brings to light why material science can never pfully rovide all of the answers to life, and how spirit values help to complete the picture.

Our final look at Paper 12, about the essence of energy, gravity and the three elements of true reality.

Examining Paper 12 ("The Universe of Universes"), a summary description of our universe, how space is expanding and where we fit as a planet in the cosmos.

We discuss Paper 64 and the history of the migration of the Sangik Races, the first colored peoples of earth and why the revelators say colored races are important to human evolution.Plus, a look at upcoming Urantia events, and some commentary on a recent article by Byron Belitsos - how do we move the Urantia Book into mainstream at a time when the people of earth could really benefit from revealed truth?

The Urantia Book tells us about Ratta, the woman who married the first son of Adam, and we learn about her contributions to the world some 35 thousand years ago during the early days of the spread of the Adamites.It's a wonderful story of a person whom time has forgotten, but whose journey and impact is explored on the pages of the Urantia revelation.

How did life evolve? Was it accidental, or by deisgn?Let's look at what the Urantia Book says in Part 3 on the origin of life on our world. And an extraordinary confession from an astrophysicist who says spontaneous creation is highly unlikely, and that the arrangement of black holes throughout the universe proves the creation could not have been random.

This episide discusses Paper 21 and the mission and natures of Creator Sons, and includes several different topics all related to Jesus Christ, the Son of Man and Son of God to over a billion people on earth.What is the real significance of Jesus, who appeared on the scene two-thousand years ago and changed the entire world with his teachings?Who was Jesus before the bestowal? Why is it important to know about Christ Michael in connection with the bestowal of Jesus of Nazareth?Today, thousands are punished and even willing to face death because of their faith in him, governments today still fear him, and Western countries who have benefited from his teachings now shun him (to their own peril) in greater numbers.Let's go deep on this, because no other subject draws such dramatic distinctions than between the teachings of Christianity and the teachings of the Urantia Book, on the the story of Jesus Christ.

In this episode our guests are Gabriel Rymberg and Joel Garbon, fellow students of the Urantia Book, to discuss a bold and exciting project called The Angelic Story of Jesus, producing cinema creations of the important events in Jesus' life, stories of Jesus from the Urantia Book.We also discuss current events, the spiritual crisis in the world, AI and its benefits - as well as dangers for humanity - and the continued efforts of getting people to learn about he Urantia Book and to discover the divine within.

Perhaps the second most important spiritual leader in history, whose influence led to Abraham, Moses, the great religious awakening of the 5th Century, and most importantly, prepared for the reception of the Son of Man and God, Jesus of Nazareth. Here is how Melchizedek saved our world.In this episode we discuss- Early Hebrew faith- The birth of Monotheism- The link between Abraham and Moses, both of whom founders of the Hebrew- and later- Christian faith, as well as Islam.- The dangers of over-teaching revealed truth.

Majorie Ray, scienitist and Urantia Book student, joins us to talk about the Nov 6 and 7, 2025 Scientific Symposium (sponsored by the Urantia Foundation)We discuss current events, the growth of the revelation, her recent trip to various Urantia community events, as well as in Israel, and the future of the fifth epochal revelation.Marjorie Ray is a retired biochemist who was given The Urantia Book over 45 years ago. Jim Mills, also a trained scientist, was an early and profound influence upon her studies. After graduate school in Florida, Margie became a scientist at The University of Alabama Birmingham. Having participated in some of the largest science endeavors on this planet, including six NASA Space Shuttle missions, a Soyuz, and one SpaceX mission to Space Station, Margie continues to find coherence in both science and personal religious experience as revealed in The Urantia Book. Now into her seventh decade, she hopes to be of more service to the Urantia Book community. 

Today, there are several examples around us that show how angels are helping humanity, from brokered peace deals, to cooperative efforts of disease prevention, and even education outreach. These sound like human endeavors, but how much are we being influenced by the presence of our "unseen friends" behind the scenes? According to the Urantia Book in Paper 114, they are everywhere and their range in human affairs is vast ,as 'The Most High Rules in the Kingdoms of men" is explained....

In this episode, we discover the story of what happened with Jesus on Mt. Hermon prior to his baptism. There are lessons of fatherhood, mercy, the resolution of the Lucifer rebellion, and why this may be the most important passage you will find in the entire Urantia Book.It appears everything we know and care about in the universe came down to this one moment in time. It's the story everyone needs to hear in order to understand the profound relationship God has with his children.

In this episode, we look at what life is like on our sister sphere, a world very similar to our own as described in full detail in Paper 72 from the Urantia Book. The Urantia Book informs us special permission was required by the Melchizedek who sponsored Paper 72 depicting the living conditions and standards of a race of humans who constitute a continental nation comprised of 140 million inhabitants on a “near-distant” world.If we were given this information to achieve societal advancement, to better our conditions and to improve our estate, then perhaps we should take a deeper look at how our sister sphere is coming along, since it appears we are not so different, even from our galactic cousins who also inhabit God’s wonderful creation.

We were recently joined by Center for Unity co-founder Gabriel Rymberg. Among many interesting topics we discussed, including the moral and ethical need for the Urantia Book teachings, we also look one-hundred years after the Celestials delivered the revelations, and what might be healthy next steps to spreading the good news of the Urantia Book. Is it AI, is it more social networking -- or something else entirely?Gabriel also shares news about exciting new projects coming from Center for Unity. Gabriel was contracted to translate the Urantia Book into Hebrew, and it was through this project he came to develop a relationship with Jesus (from the Life and Teachings) during the fiver years he worked on the translation.

Author and Urantia Book student Ryan McGuire joins us to discuss his book The Case For The Urantia Book. McGuire lays out numerous cases for validating the Urantia Book's claim it is a divine revelation from non-human sources.

A candid conversation with long-time Urantia Book reader Joseph Morgan, who, among other things, was instrumental in heloing bring the Superdome to New Orleans, and and is perhaps the only person to ever have the opportunity to share the Urantia Book on national TV. Not to mention Joseph found the time to construct the only known Father's Temple to exist on the planet.

This episode covers two very important topics. First, the ten most important Ueantia Book teachings that could change the world.Plus, examining how the teachings of Christianity and the Jewish faith have made the world a better place, and how the Urantia Book continues the thread of religious revelation into the future.

How does the Trinity concept help harmonize faith with science?In Paper 104 from the Urantia Book, we learn about the Trinity Concept, and how the functionality of Trinity aids us in comprehending both a personal loving spiritual father, who, at the same time, can also be the primal energy source of an entire expanding universe. The Urantia Book represents the fifth, and latest attempt to teach mankind the trinity concept intended to unify mind, matter and spirit as one cohesive force whose derivation is the I AM of God, the Father of creation.

In this episode we explore Paper 112:3 and the three kinds of death. The subject of human personality is also clarified, and we learn what happens to our spirit when we pass from the human life to the next stage of existence on the Mansion worlds. The revelators offer a comprehensive explanation of the phenomena of death - but also the more important concept of survival of the human personality beyond the limitations of material life.

The Urantia Book tells us much the genesis of war and why it persists. It is also thoroighly explains why it must be abandon. It's wirht a good rview of Paper 70 and its first two sections on War.

Father's Day is an excellent opportunity to look at the spiritual value of fathers in mortal life, and how human fathers shape our view of the greatest father of all, the Creator Father. Prayer is the method through which we can attain a connection with our father in Paradise because he has sealed within each of us a fragment of his spirit, which provides a living personal connection to and with Him during our mortal lives.Happy Fathers Day to all of those dads who make such a profound difference to our children, in service to the Father who has made life possible.

UBtheNews founder and longtime Urantia Book reader Halbert Katzen shares important insights as to the next vital step for wider acceptance of the Urantia Book. We discuss mysticism, channeling, repudiation and other distractions that undermine Urantia credibility.To Halbert's credit, his UBAnnotated project (and UBtheNews) continues to challenge UB skeptics by providing evidentiary information that validates the Urantia Book assertions on anthrooplogy, geology, early human history, race, Adam and Eve's legacy and other fascinating subjects.

During these times it is good to reflect back at the early beginnings of man and and the first revelation gifted to us by the Sons of the Most High, and also to spend a few minutes to consider the power of prayer and worship as spiritual aids, and how connection to God is vital to our spiritual growth.

Topic of this episode is Echoes of Divine Hierarchy: A Comparative Analysis of the Sons of God in the Urantia Book and the Catholic Church Structure and The Providential Hand In Catholicism.Perhaps at some future point the Catholic Church may welcome the Temple of the Father at St. Peter's Basilica, as described in Revelations and The Urantia Book.

We continue with our series on several of the more notable Apostles, as described in paper 139 of the Urantia Book. We learn about the diverse backgrounda and personality of Matthew Levi, and his fellow Apostle Thomas Dydimus; what made these men tick, what was their family life like, and how did Jesus appeal to them?Many readers relate to one or more of the Apostles, perhaps there are qualities in these two men that will touch your heart.

What About the Science in the Urantia Book? Let's ask one.Scientist Marjorie Ray joins us to discuss the upcoming Urantia Foundation Scientific Symposium (November 6th, 2025) in Chicago. As a scietist and experience Urantia Book raeder, Ray discusses contemporary science and the Science of the Urantia Book. We discuss genetics, (Ray is a trained bio-chemical engineer who, amongh other accomplishments was involved in the NASA space program), astronomy, paleontology and other UB-related science. About the Guest:Marjorie Ray's area of science was biochemistry:  protein/lipid interactions and protein crystallography.  I worked at the University of Alabama at Birmingham for my entire scientific career.  Officially Nov. 2013 but came back as a short term consultant to finish a project we had been working on for NASA.  NASA got us space of Elon Musk’s first rocket that made it up to the station.  Marjorie says she had been doing missions to the Space Station for a number of years before the shuttle program shut down.  During that time she decided to apply to Oxford to study philosophy and started in a program there in 2017 (part-time), and now lives in the Pacific Northwest.

Continuing our series on the Apostle from paper 139, we now learn about Andrew and Simon Peter, brothers and friends of John and James Zebedee, whom introduced them to Jesus as candidates for Apostolic consideration. We learn about the characters of these two young men, how they complimented each other in life, Peter's penchant for getting in trouble, and how Andrew, or " Chief" as the twelve referred to him, became the administrative head of this unique group of men who would go on to become Ambassadors of the Kingdom.

From paper 139 we explore the personalities as they are described n the Urantia Book regarding John Zebedee and Judas Iscariot, two apostles who could not be farther apart in personality, character and faith in the their faith with Jesus. You will be more than captivated learning about these two men who were part of the most important spiritual event in the history of mankind, being ambassadors for the Son of Man and Son of God.

Paper 72, section 11 teaches about life on a planet and no country not unlike our own, with a similarly checkered past, and a time line commensurate with our own present advancement.We are also informed this other off-world nation is a constitutional Republic like the United States, coexisting alongside more hostile neighboring countrries with corrollating geo-political threats similar to our own. Why would the Revelators share this story ? Could the revelators foresee a dangerous trajectory for our world and thought it wise to offer solutions gleaned from another sister sphere located somehwere in our galactic neighborhood?Nowhere else in the Urantia Book are we given such a detailed description of life of other humans beings. This should stir anyone’s imagination.It is also self-evident that our world faces grave challenges between preserving the peace, or continue suffering from more genocidal conflict. In this context, it behooves us to consider what our unseen celestial friends have to share.#Urantia#Extraterrestrial#War#military#NATO#DavidStockton#AI

A continuation of our discussion on the impact the Urantia Book is making today.

Rick Lyon has been studying the Urantia Book since 1978, when he found an original first edition Urantia Book in a landfill. Today, Rick looks back to decades of studying and sharing the Urantia Book with thousands of people through his work with the Urantia Association, and talks about where the Urantia Movement is today, and what's to come.In this podcast we talk about early criticism of the Urantia Book, the integration of AI and the Urantia Book, and Rick's recent involvement with the CenterforUnity.org#UrantiaBook#Centerforunity#Jesus#Religion#Faith
