The Divine Within Podcast – Update

By Santiago Kneeland

Countdown to Launch

These past 2 weeks have been momentous for the Podcast project: The Divine Within. We recorded the first 5 episodes, and are in the process of post-production editing, and a launch date will be announced very soon.

It has been an amazing journey, and I'm very happy to say that many in the UB community participated, and we all had a blast! This is the beginning of a new chapter in The Center For Unity's mission to foster the individual's relationship with God. We are now taking all the assets we've created these past 3 years to the world: Discover Jesus, Urantia Book Tutor, Urantia Book Podcast, AskJesus Chatbot, and most recently, Urantia Book Trivia Game. These, along with many other works, and even The Urantia Book will now be readily available for them.

I try to put myself in the shoes of someone who just came across this Podcast, and wonder what will happen when they see a bunch of people talking about the Religion of the Spirit and learning that they have a "Divine Within" – a fragment of God. Well, they can start clicking on the links and discover the wisdom of The Urantia Book. They can ask the UB Tutor a simple question, Who am I? and they will get an answer something like this:

"The question 'Who am I?' is one of the most profound inquiries a person can make, and its answer lies at the intersection of your spiritual essence, your human experience, and your relationship with the Divine.

"At your core, you are a unique personality, a creation of the Universal Father, endowed with the potential for eternal growth and spiritual realization. You are not merely a physical being but a spiritual entity experiencing life in a material form, designed to grow through experiences, relationships, and the pursuit of truth, beauty, and goodness.

"Your identity is deeply tied to your capacity for free will, which allows you to choose to align with the Divine will and grow closer to the Universal Father. This choice is the essence of your individuality and the foundation of your eternal journey. You are also a part of a vast cosmic family, interconnected with all other beings, and your life contributes to the unfolding of a greater divine plan. In this sense, your existence is both deeply personal and uniquely significant."

Imagine the countless individuals that will be touched by this message? Every soul that decides to embark on this journey, like all of us, will find solace in the wisdom of The Urantia Book.

The launch of The Divine Within Podcast will usher in new times for the Revelation, where we hope to take one step closer in fulfilling our mission: Fostering the Individual's relationship with God.
