M&A014 – Finding God in a Trap House, Losing God in College (w/Asa Leveaux & Leeroy “Cozmix” Alvarez)

12/15/20 • 82 min

When you're raised in crooked religion, atheism can be quite attractive. Nick Snapp and Marcus Plating have a fascinating conversation with a couple of guys who were raised in religion, turned to atheism and then in two very different ways came to recognize the existence of a Divine Creator. Both of our guests today have been part of the LGBTQ community and have very different world views of who Jesus Christ is, and what God thinks of them.

One of our guests spent time hanging with satanists and even shaved his eyebrows to become like a Buddhist monk. Both of our guests have also had miraculous experiences you’ll get to hear about. We really dove deep into their journeys and unpacked the mindsets they had at various milestones throughout their spiritual journey.

Asa Leveaux, America’s leading clarity coach, renounced atheism just two years ago. He has a fascinating story about growing up as a pastor's kid in a twisted church culture. We dove deep into how he turned to atheism, and then away from it and into a Universalist world view.

We also talked with Leeroy “Cosmix” Alvarez back to the Miracles & Atheists podcast. Leeroy considers himself a simple man with a complex past, he’s a blue collar worker hoping to start up his own insurance business and a proactive member of the local community. Leeroy Alvarez is a gospel rapper, and as an ex-atheist, he says above all, he is a Follower of Christ.

M&A013 - Christmas with a Side of Paganism

“The time of year when Christians & atheists suspend their belief systems and come together to celebrate paganism.” -Meme, Unknown Author

We’re going to have a very uncomfortable conversation about Christmas, pagan roots and symbols related to Christmas, and try to unpack to the best of our ability whether it's in a Christian's best interest to partake.

It's unsettling to even question the idea, yet, if we're really truth-seekers, we should be doing whatever we can to understand why we believe what we believe, and why we celebrate what we celebrate.

M&A015 - Hell Doesn’t Exist...or Does it? (w/ Illiana Villalpando)

Does hell not exist because "they" added it to the Book to scare people into living a life without sin? Can we use our own "Christ consciousness" to stop time?

So many interesting topics come up when you start talking about hell. The idea that any of creation would find his or herself in hell has a way of bringing a wide range of emotional topics to the surface that we're not all that used to talking about.

So let's talk about em!

Our guest, Illiana Villalpando is a truth-seeker and spiritual researcher who does not believe that hell exists. She accepts some parts of Christianity, some Buddhism, a bit of Hinduism, and all of science. Illiana is a self-proclaimed agnostic, who chose to be part of our program to open the minds of others and their perspective of good and evil.

As always, we had an interesting conversation about a number of topics our truth-seeking listeners will appreciate.
