My Conversation with Glenn Ostlund about Mysticism

I have a chat with Glenn Ostlund about my journey from Mormonism to mysticism, and related mystical metaphysics and spirituality.

This last week I had the opportunity to have a conversation with Glenn Ostlund, host of the Infants on Thrones podcast, about mysticism.

It was a good conversation, the first time I’ve really talked openly about mysticism in a dialogue form, including describing more details of my history and spiritual journey from a very conservative literalist Mormonism, with a deep interest in the LDS temple, to a more progressive and universalist contemplative mysticism.

You can find the podcast at this link, or listen in the player below, or subscribe to the podcast (Apple Podcasts|Android|Google Podcasts|RSS) to listen on your favorite podcast player or app. It is episode #611. I hope you enjoy the conversation, and I look forward to hearing your comments and thoughts.

Thank you, Glenn, for the conversation. I look forward to future chats.
