Show Notes

In this episode David and Christopher focus on 2 Corinthians 12:2-4. These verses contain one of Paul’s mystical experiences that may prove confusing to Christians unused to mystical concepts, practices and experiences. The Sufi concept of worlds or realms beyond the mind and senses, concepts of high states of consciousness are referenced in order to provide an alternate, spiritual path toward reading and internalizing Paul and his experience.
