About

The Tao of Christ is a podcast which explores the mystical, intuitive, and contemplative side of Christianity. It explores what has been historically called the unitive life and union with God. I call it Christian nonduality, nondualism, and unitive awareness. God has been speaking since the Big Bang 13.7 billion years ago, long before there were human beings, written scriptures and religious traditions. In this podcast I explore that wider revelation. I interpret the Chinese classic the Tao te Ching from a Christian perspective. I share a book I have written on Christian non-duality, as well as presenting recent teachings. The Chinese word Tao means the Way, which is how Jesus referred to himself, saying, “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.” It is what the Gospel of John calls the Logos, or the Word, when he writes: “In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God.” According to the Book of Acts the earliest Christians called their spiritual path simply “the Way.” This podcast is about this ancient and primordial Way. This is the Tao of Christ.
