This week on the Spiritual Forum host Rev. Carol and guest Tams Nicholson (Executive Director of All-Creatures, Biblical Theology & Care of Creation expert) explore the powerful concept of transcending our current culture of death to embrace an evolutionary new paradigm of compassion and mercy for all – bringing Heaven to Earth. Discover insights into liberation theology, the Golden Rule of all faiths, Judeo-Christian ethics, scripture interpretation, the vital care of creation, and a rising consciousness towards universal compassion – the "Homo Ahimsa." Tams also shares her journey from atheism to a practicing Third Order Franciscan and how her organization, All-Creatures, is a spiritual and educational resource for everyone. Tap in for hope, inspiration, and a fresh perspective on living an authentic life.
