Etcetera – 07.02.08 – Life and Death
Erik Guzman July 3rd, 2008
This week on Etcetera, The Comedy Ninja and The Spastic Mystic joined me in the studio for a ride down the Internet Stream of Collective Consciousness. That's my silly way of saying my friends Matt and Sharon stopped by and we recorded a conversation that seemed directed by a Mind beyond ourselves.
I was all prepared to talk about my recent fascination with death (and birth as the beginning and end of death). Then, Matt gave us the update on the impending arrival of baby Alejandro and Jordo called in to talk about walking through his valley of the shadow of death after a recent breakup (which is how Sharon's book, A Doxology in Darkness, begins)!
The coolness of experiencing all this is probably lost in my description, use one of the options below to listen and see if any of this means anything to you.
Here are some links that came up in this show…
-Chapters one, two and three of Sharon's book, A Doxology in Darkness.
-Why They're Not Emergent – Kevin & Ted on SBE
-Thanks to Bill Mallonee and Leo Nevillo for providing music for the show.
Also, I'll be on vacation next week, so no Etcetera for you. Look for new episodes starting the week of July 14. But, check the blog next week for chapter 4 of A Doxology in Darkness and join Sharon on her journey to "…give thanks in a state of inner desolation [and] to trust in the love of God in the face of the marvels, cruel circumstances, obscenities, and commonplaces of life" (Ruthless Trust, Manning).
