With All Your Mind Tom Amos

"God... Who are you?" 

In this rather turbulent time of opinion and frustration during the pandemic I have had a lot of questions for God: questions about His nature, His goodness, His existence, His will and His ways. In this episode I explore these questions in the form of a prayerful reflection where I speak to Him about the things that I'm feeling and ask Him what His own thoughts have been over the past year. As ever, with this series, the questions are unscripted, unplanned and for your own provocation, encouragement and invitation to ask more! I hope you enjoy it!

In this episode I kick off the Questions Series for real with asking questions to myself. So often we want to point the finger outwards at everything and everyone else that should be contributing to change in the world without first asking "what am I contributing?" My heart in this episode is not to stray into self-condemnation, but to wrestle with some self-reflecting questions which allow me to be real with who I am, who I've been and who I want to become. I hope you enjoy! 



As a disclaimer - the volume on this episode is a little quiet, and the voice recording suddenly gets rather deep half-way through! I actually quite like my deeper, smoother voice when this happens, but it might be a bit jarring! Due to the episode being an unrehearsed reflection, it didn't feel right to rerecord my reflections inauthentically, so I've kept the recording, despite some of the technical bumps! I hope that it is still an enjoyable and challenging listen - it's probably my favourite reflection of the lot!

This week I introduce a new series: Questions! I have a feeling that this could be a messy but exciting series, born out of a large amount of processing my thoughts that I have been doing over the past year. It has been a year of many questions, and probably not a huge amount of answers. Instead of trying to give planned thoughts and half-hearted solutions to all of my questions, I am going to spend the next few episodes in some times of unplanned reflection and questioning. 

This idea doesn't feel massively comfortable, I think it's going to be stretching, but a sincerely hope that it is helpful. I hope that these questions will serve to challenge you and to inspire you to do some questioning of your own!

The Three Act Story is one of the most basic structures for writing a story - it is recognisable in most Hollywood movies. In this episode I explain for the Three Act Story  works through testing it against Toy Story before going on to explain the thrust of the main story of the Bible by structuring it as a Three Act Story and breaking down one or two of the themes. This was a bit of an experiment and I really enjoyed it! I hope it helps you to both understand the story for yourself and feel inspired to go and explore the story of the Bible as well! It's not a comprehensive covering... but we'll get there ;)

Have great weeks, I'll catch you soon! 

Stories are powerful. They provoke us, they stir our emotions and they resonate with our experiences. We remember stories far more deeply than most other forms of teaching or communication. Stories are incredibly powerful, with the best simply revealing to us the truths of life and saying: This Is. In this episode I explore how the Bible communicates through story, the ways in which stories are effectively communicated and some ways in which we might be letting ourselves be frustrated by the Bible's stories through not approaching them in the way they may have intended to be. Come and join me! 



As ever, I would love for your comments, feedback, or for you to share with your friends!

Today I kick off a probably 5 parter series on the Bible! In this introduction I ask what the Bible is, why is matters and why is it significant that it was written by people? Through this we will be examining a little bit of what is called textual criticism and (hopefully) beginning to see how fascinating and complex the Bible can be when it's not being used as a weapon to win an argument. 

I really enjoy doing this Podcast and would love some help from you! Please send me feedback and questions/topics you'd like to hear more about on: withallyourmind1@gmail.com
