Are you ready to courageously follow your own sense of mercy, justice, and truth? Are you searching for religious teachings that make sense? Are you having a hard time accepting teachings which seem spiritually unholy and untruthful? Then, have we got a show for you! The Cosmic Citizen is a show for progressive religionists and spiritual people who are ready to find a spirituality worthy of an age of science and enlightenment. Our hosts, Paula Thompson, Andre Radatus , Chuck Thurston, Pamela Chaddock, and Marvin Gawryn are ministers, students and scholars of The Urantia Book, all with at least four decades of experience with it. We sometimes interview guests on topics related to modern and progressive spirituality, but most often we explore The Urantia Book together on air. We embrace diversity, civil and intelligent dialogue, and a willingness to serve a purpose that is true, beautiful and good. Please join us!

Upcoming Broadcasts

This week we will FINALLY continue our reading of Urantia Paper 11, The Eternal Isle of Paradise, with a study of Section 8. Paradise Gravity, and we hope to conclude with Section 9. The Uniqueness of Paradise. The numerous forms of cosmic force, physical energy, universe power, and various materializations disclose three general, though not perfectly clear-cut, stages of response to Paradise gravity: Pregravity Stages (Force) - Gravity Stages (Energy) -Postgravity Stages (Universe Power). Space potency, originating from Paradise, is not subject to gravity but is the source of all force energy and material organization. Everything is ultimately drawn towards Paradise. Paradise is the eternal and exclusive realm at the center of all spiritual destinies. It's the center of infinity, distinct from the universal creation, and serves as the source of all energies and personalities. Originating from the Universal Father, Paradise symbolizes the nonpersonal aspect of reality, contrasting with the personal, spiritual expressions. It's not a creator or conscious entity but the absolute pattern for all creation. Ultimately, Paradise is the glorious, eternal abode and the final destination for all God-knowing mortals on their journey toward divinity and perfection. We hope you can join us for another exploration of the Isle of Paradise!
