God: An Autobiography, The Podcast, welcomes philosopher and returning guest Dr. Richard Oxenberg in this thought-provoking Life Wisdom Project. The two explore what it means to “come up for air” when asking life’s deeper questions: how everyday tasks like grocery shopping or filling the gas tank relate to profound concepts of purpose and spiritual wisdom.
Drawing on Aristotle’s eudaimonia, Jerry and Richard discuss the distinction between intrinsic and instrumental value, and how recognizing love- whether romantic, familial, or communal- can connect our horizontal and vertical dimensions of existence.
They also examine the paradox of God as both One and Many, highlighting the yearning for oneness at the heart of all religious traditions. From insights on humility and community to practical ways of weaving prayerful intentionality into our daily routines, this enriching conversation offers guidance for anyone seeking deeper meaning and life wisdom in a diverse and interconnected world.
