Jesus Outside Christianity
Wow I absolutely love this YouTube channel. It’s making the point between Jesus and Christ. Essentially, breaking down the different between Jesus as Teacher / Lord / Messiah vs the rest of the Bible as we know it. Essentially the difference between viewing God as all loving vs having any sort of evil.
Essentially, this idea of “ONENESS” that Jesus speaks of.
Now, I realize that this is very different than Orthodox view of Jesus, which is where I’m coming from.
But how it’s also different from New Age forms of Jesus is that it doesn’t require you to “DO” in order to be “SAVED” either, which is something that so often New Age Spirituality gets wrong. I just thought this is a wonderful channel, and really hits the nail on the head of a lot of my beliefs around faith.
Jewel Never Broken
In an interview with someone, the above YouTuber also had a guest who spoken of Jewel, which is very ironic because her concert is the first “REAL” concert I went to. I mean, I’ve been to punk rock shows as well, one with my sister, which was really intense, but I often remember Jewel’s concert as the first one. And the first in which I tried a cigarette by my friend’s Mom who offered me one, and said it’s better I have a cigarette with her than with anyone else. LOL. ANYWAYS. Jewel created a fantastic website called “Jewel Never Broken” with a free course also attached, which I’ll link here. I thought it was really interesting and a non-religious way at peace.
