Smarticle - AGTF - A Rerelease - In the Image of Your Father (and Mother)

Smarticle

In this Rerelease of a Smarticle Podcast show from two and a half years ago, we discuss the concept of God through the lens of Franciscan friar, Father Richard Rohr's ideas. We explore how early images of God are shaped by one's parents and advocate for reframing these perceptions to see a more encompassing vision of God. We delve into the common human tendency to attribute parental characteristics to God and challenges rule-based religious thinking. We emphasize the need to move beyond rigid structures and understand God as an infinite mystery, incorporating diverse experiences and the true essence of the Trinity. 00:00 Introduction to the Lenin Season 00:39 Understanding Our Perception of God 01:25 The Role of Rules in Religion 02:04 Reframing God Beyond Parental Images 02:39 Challenges in Discussing God's Nature 04:05 Scriptural Interpretations and Human Influence 05:48 Personal Experiences and Spiritual Growth 07:32 The Second Half of Life 08:03 Embracing Doubt and Change 08:48 Conclusion and Final Thoughts
