Join this week’s What’s On Your Mind for a profound exploration of divine communication, revelation, and existence. Scott and Jerry share their reactions to the first exchange between philosophers Jerry L. Martin and Richard Oxenberg—the dialogue that inspired Two Philosophers Wrestle with God: A Dialogue, now available on Amazon.

It begins with an email from Richard, whose bold questions spark a thought-provoking discussion about how God communicates across cultures and individuals. Together, the philosophers confront a universal challenge: discerning divine truth from human interpretation. Through their dialectic, they unravel the complexities of revelation, the interaction between the divine and the human, and the enduring mystery of God’s voice in the world.

This episode isn’t just a conversation- it’s an invitation to think deeply, stay curious, and seek clarity in life’s most essential questions. It offers a rare chance to experience a genuine philosophical journey into God, belief, and existence.
Stay curious, ask life’s deepest questions, and seek clarity about how God’s voice is heard in the modern world.
