David Youngren, Life Ascending

Author: Ramsey Zimmerman - Holistic and Natural Health Specialist, Author, and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner April 3, 2025 Duration: 50:28
How do you understand the idea of Consciousness in Christian terms, through a broader understanding of scripture? Ideas and practices like collective consciousness, meditation, and connection are often unfamiliar or uncomfortable to traditional Christian believers. Yet, they are comfortable with ideas like the Holy Spirit, or “God is the Light of the World”, or “God is above all, through all, and in all.” David Youngren, in his book Life Ascending, explains how the Aramaic meanings of these and other Biblical phrases can explain ideas of mental and spiritual connection to a whole new audience.  Ramsey and David had a deep spiritual and philosophical conversation which included David’s journey realizing that he did not have all the answers, and that there must be more of God’s Truth out there that he needed to explore.  This is a “bridge-building” episode that will be powerful to listen to for traditional Christian believers and those who ponder and experience Consciousness beyond traditional scriptural teachings.  Learn more at www.davidyoungren.com.
