CURRENT EPISODES

Taking a slight offramp in this episode, let's talk about a recent case where someone associated with the Urantia Book is "cancelled" because of so-called "ties to eugenics."

Alvin Kulieke, related to David and Marilynn Kulieke (early readers of the Urantia Book), was a long-time teacher and principle at Prospect High, well regarded for his long tenure at the school. A student journalist who looked into the Urantia Book felt its writings promoted eugenics, which, of course, is ludicrous. Still,...

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 differ...

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 ...

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 Templ of the Father at St. Peter's Square.

In this episode we listen to two AI's having a conversation about Morontia Mota, referencing a recent article about why the Revelators withheld certain Mota concepts in the UB. It is a fascinating look at how high tech interprets the Urantia Book teachings.

Plus, the Urantia Book only uses the exclamation point (!) 429 times throughout its one-million plus words of text, so what is so special about the statements? Let's take a look at a few of them.

And finally, why is Life itself so difficult...

What is the defining message of the Urantia Book? And what drives social evolution?

For this we go to Paper 68 and discuss the early drivers of human emotion and how these tendencies moved humanity forward. But could these same drivers also bring civilization down? You may be curious what one Melchizedek has to say about the matter.

Plus, how does the UB serve the greater Christian community? We'll discuss it in this episode.

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 26th, 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....

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 A...

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 Master Jesus.

It is said these papers have been instrumental in convincing many readers of the Urantia Book of its authenticity as a divine revelation, including Dr. William S. Sadler, and the reverend and Dr. Meredith J. Sprunger.

You will be more than captivated learning abo...

Paper 72, section 11 teaches about life on a planet and a country not unlike our own, even with a similar a checkered period of their own earth history, and a time line commensurate with our own. We learn about a particular nation that is also a Constitutional Republic, and also trying to survive in a hostile world with geo-political threats among warring nations.

So, why would the Revelators share the story ? Could it be because they want us to learn from this off world civilization, and help ...

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 Cen...

From Paper 38 we delve into the character, nature and purpose of these high spirit personalities who serve ascendant mortals as guides and protectors.

"Only good can come from you learning more about them," the Urantia Book says, and it is in these two groups we have our deepest relationships along the spirit journey.

This episode is about Paper 36 on the mission of Life Carrier Sons, a unique order of divine Son's whose mission it is to design and implement progressive life on the worlds of time and space.

Author and lecturer Byron Belitsos returns to discuss many great endeavors he is involved with in an attempt to create new brodges with other religious communities, using the Rodan approach in his mission.

Check out his Rodan Institute
Plus, the Urantia movement and why it stalled in the beginning, and what we can learn from the Eastern Orthodox approach to Christ's teachings.

In this episode, we look at what the Urantia Book tells us about these 'ancient aliens' who were a rich part of our pre-history, including the One-Hundred Dalamatians (who later became known as the Nodites and Nephilim), and of course, the Adamic Race, who have had a profound impact on our later history and spiritual development.

Were these the ancient aliens who spawned the stories of the Annunaki and "Giants in thise days," or is there a deeper story to be considered.

And is this why human b...

Amazingly, a brief section of Paper 52 outlines what stage humanity is in right now, why were are out of step with what they call "normal evolutionary worlds," and what is required for us to get to the next stage - and what awaits us if we make it.

Paper 52 is one of the most unique and thrilling chapters in the whole revelation, and it certainly gives us the tools we need to ensure our survival as a planet.

Brad Garner joins us to talk about life under a Urantia philosphy growing up (as a 2nd generation reader), plus his work with Symmetry of Soul, an online open study group that digs deep on Urantia topics, and a candid view of the world today and how the Urantia Book can benefit mankind.

Examining Paper 195, we look at the revelators warning about the crisis of secularism and materialism on mondern society and how the teachings of Jesus are the only way to save society from collapse.

Join me as we get to know the folks behind a new global Urantia Book-based initiative called ⁠The UB Read Thru Project⁠, an innovative online effort to bring students of the Urantia Revelation together to read the papers as a global community.
Diane Labrecque, Conrad Lavallee, Erica Montgomery and others join me to talk about their unique Urantia Book experiences and what this project means to them.
