  • PLEASE LIKE, FOLLOW AND SUBSCRIBE! Today's Listener Letter is sent in by "Settling into my Spirit Side". Dear Bellamy Black, The thought of religion and spirituality has me conflicted. Growing up, my family was very religious, almost to the point where some may say it was “cult-ish”. There were expectations of behavior and punishment or ridicule if I did not comply. At first, these methods of fear mongering completely turned me off religion of any kind. I identified as Atheist, for years, but in my older age I feel called to spirituality again. But I am not sure where to really start. I was researching Wicca, and found the Earth Based spiritual and energy-based practice to be intriguing, but ultimately I am struggling with the underlying structure of it all. I kind of just want to be a free range heathen. Is this ok? Does one have to associate with a particular religion in order to find their spiritual side? I want to learn, and in some ways I need guidance (or at least I think I do). Where do I begin? Join Bellamy Black as she interviews Dr. Sarah Montgomery-Richards, Professor of Philosophy and Religious Studies at Northwestern Michigan University in Traverse City, MI, and Adrian College in Adrian, MI. Together, they delve into the nuanced topic of Religion vs. Spirituality, illuminating the idea that there are "many paths up the mountain." In this enlightening conversation, Bellamy and Dr. Sarah explore the personal relationships people have with their Ultimate Sacred Reality, discussing how these connections shape their lives and worldviews. They examine the differences between religion and spirituality, highlighting how structure and organized religion play distinct roles in these ideals. Religion is often characterized by established doctrines, rituals, and institutions, providing a structured framework for communal worship and shared beliefs. Spirituality, on the other hand, is more individualistic, focusing on personal experiences and inner growth. Bellamy and Dr. Sarah discuss how organized religion offers a sense of community, tradition, and continuity, while spirituality emphasizes personal exploration, authenticity, and a direct connection to the divine. They also explore various ways to research and learn about alternative religious movements, offering practical tools to help listeners access religion and spirituality in an informed and respectful manner. This episode will inspire you to reflect on your own spiritual journey and consider new perspectives on the sacred. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that bridges the gap between religion and spirituality, helping you navigate your own path up the mountain. #religion #spirituality #ultimatesacredreality #manypathsupthemountain #newreligiousmovements #wheredoibegin #davidbowieisgod #gobroncos #nostupidquestions #knowledgeispower #blessedbe #askawitch #bellamyblack #podcast #traversecity #cydeproductions HARVARD PLURALISM PROJECT https://pluralism.org/ GREAT LAKES TREATS - local mushroom foragers https://greatlakestreats.com/ To Find Dr. Sarah Montgomery-Richards NMC Human Resources Directory https://www.nmc.edu/departments/human-resources/staff-list.html TEA ENCHANTING CHAI- CONTAINS SO "MUSH" MAGICK Black china tea, cinnamon, assam tea, cardamom, clove, ginger, black pepper, chicory, chaga, reishi, red rooibos, licorice root.
