A brief update on what happened since I last posted a podcast

Peter Rollins is an author, philosopher, storyteller, producer and public speaker who has gained an international reputation for overturning traditional notions of religion and forming “churches” that preach the Good News that we can’t be satisfied, that life is difficult, and that we don’t know the secret.Challenging the idea that faith concerns questions relating to belief, Peter’s incendiary and religionless reading of Christianity attacks the distinction between the sacred and the secular. It critiques theism and it sets aside questions regarding life after death to explore the possibility of life before death.For more of Peter:Twitter: https://twitter.com/PeterRollinsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/peter_rollins/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OrthodoxHeretic/To become a patron and help this program continue producing Mood Altering Substance, go to www.patreon.com/hellohuman and pledge any amount.For more of us:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hellohumans.co/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hellohumans.co/Twitter: https://twitter.com/HelloHumans_coAnd if you’d like to buy us a coffee (or burrito) once a month to help us keep going, you can become a patron by going to https://www.patreon.com/hellohuman and making a pledge of any amount.

At 19, while in his sophomore year of college, BJ was electrocuted and subsequently became a triple amputee. Undaunted, BJ returned to Princeton to study art history and eventually decided to focus on medicine, which ultimately led him into palliative care. Palliative care is a specialty that focuses on patients with life limiting and terminal illnesses, it requires an intimate knowledge of death and a heart that is courageous enough to look into the darkest corners of ourselves to find out what we are ultimately living for. The famed German poet Rainer Maria Rilke wrote, "Let everything happen to you, beauty and terror, just keep going, no feeling is final,"BJ is the living embodiment of this idea.For more of BJ:Twitter: https://twitter.com/bjmillermdTo become a patron and help this program continue producing Mood Altering Substance, go to www.patreon.com/hellohuman and pledge any amount.For more of us:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hellohumans.co/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hellohumans.co/Twitter: https://twitter.com/HelloHumans_coAnd if you’d like to buy us a coffee (or burrito) once a month to help us keep going, you can become a patron by going to https://www.patreon.com/hellohuman and making a pledge of any amount.
