Episode Details

Curtis Childs is the director and host of Off The Left Eye, a Swedenborg Foundation. Emmanuel Swedenborg was an 18th century Renaissance man, who late in life began having spiritual experiences and wrote about them in a series of books that are as relevant today as they were then. Swedenborg was ahead of his time when it comes to science and medicine and his in-depth knowledge of those fields helped him understand when angels and spirits revealed to him what the "Spirit World" is like.

You might wonder how an 18th-century scientist, politician, philosopher, and theologian you've never heard of can help you today. I wondered the same thing until I discovered the program. I have been fascinated by the insights I've picked up there and how so many relate to what people who have had Near Death Experiences tell us.

Curtis helps others understand how Swedenborg can help us understand things in the Bible and about the Spirit World that are often beyond our grasp. In his program, and in this interview, he makes these difficult concepts easier. I've been a fan for over five years. I was a little starstruck sitting down with Curtis and getting to pick his brain on Swedenborg.

You've been listening. You're doing the work. But there's still this feeling that you're circling the same place.

Maybe you've thought about working with me one-on-one. Maybe something's held you back. 

I get that. And I want you to know there's still a place for you.

All of it, pay what you want. You decide what it's worth. Nobody gets turned away because of money.
