Urantia Radio

Majorie Ray, scienitist and Urantia Book student, joins us to talk about the Nov 6 and 7, 2025 Scientific Symposium (sponsored by the Urantia Foundation) We discuss current events, the growth of the revelation, her recent trip to various Urantia community events, as well as in Israel, and the future of the fifth epochal revelation. Bio on file:Marjorie Ray is a retired biochemist who was given The Urantia Book over 45 years ago. Jim Mills, also a trained scientist, was an early and profound influence upon her studies. After graduate school in Florida, Margie became a scientist at The University of Alabama Birmingham. Having participated in some of the largest science endeavors on this planet, including six NASA Space Shuttle missions, a Soyuz, and one SpaceX mission to Space Station, Margie continues to find coherence in both science and personal religious experience as revealed in The Urantia Book. Now into her seventh decade, she hopes to be of more service to the Urantia Book community.

Today, there are several examples around us that show how angels are helping humanity, from brokered peace deals, to cooperative efforts of disease prevention, and even education outreach. These sound like human endeavors, but how much are we being influenced by the presence of our "unseen friends" behind the scenes? According to the Urantia Book in Paper 114, they are everywhere and their range in human affairs is vast ,as 'The Most High Rules in the Kingdoms of men" is explained....

Let's talk about the spirit that lies within each of us. If you have a question about the Urantia Book, please ask me. Today the question is:: tell us about the seven psychic circles, and what of the Thought Adjusters? Music intro by Cristina Seaborne

In response to a listener email about Thought Adjusters and the Seven Psychic Circles (Paper 110), we delve into the purpose of this spirit fragment in us and its relationship with us throughout our lives. The email really got me thinking about the universal truth of potentials and actuals in the physical world and in the spiritual world. After all, it is not what we are, but what we strive to be that matters most in our journey.

In this episode, we discover the story of what happened with Jesus on Mt. Hermon prior to his baptism. There are lessons of fatherhood, mercy, the resolution of the Lucifer rebellion, and why this may be the most important passage you will find in the entire Urantia Book. It appears everything we know and care about in the universe came down to this one moment in time. It's the story everyone needs to hear in order to understand the profound relationship God has with his children.

In this episode, we look at what life is like on our sister sphere, a world very similar to our own as described in full detail in Paper 72 from the Urantia Book. The Urantia Book informs us special permission was required by the Melchizedek who sponsored Paper 72 depicting the living conditions and standards of a race of humans who constitute a continental nation comprised of 140 million inhabitants on a “near-distant” world. If we were given this information to achieve societal advancement, to better our conditions and to improve our estate, then perhaps we should take a deeper look at how our sister sphere is coming along, since it appears we are not so different, even from our galactic cousins who also inhabit God’s wonderful creation.

In this topical impromptu discussion, would conservative American activist Charlie Kirk, a man who dedicated his life to God and Christ, and who successfully influenced a young generation comprised of over 20 million people towards Christ-based principles, be an excellent candidate for a seat at the table of the Four and Twenty Elders described in the Bible (Revelations) and in the Urantia Book? These Elders were put in place by Christ himself, and they have continued to serve as an advisory committee of human affairs on our world, according to the Urantia papers. Among these elders council members, we are told are John the Baptist, Enoch, Adam and Eve, and other past human leaders of importance, who now sit on this heavenly council. It's worth exploring just how much influence Kirk in his short time on earth.

We were recently joined by Center for Unity co-founder Gabriel Rymberg. Among many interesting topics we discussed, including the moral and ethical need for the Urantia Book teachings, we also look one-hundred years after the Celestials delivered the revelations, and what might be healthy next steps to spreading the good news of the Urantia Book. Is it AI, is it more social networking -- or something else entirely? Gabriel also shares news about exciting new projects coming from Center for Unity. Gabriel was contracted to translate the Urantia Book into Hebrew, and it was through this project he came to develop a relationship with Jesus (from the Life and Teachings) during the fiver years he worked on the translation.

The world seems full of tragedy of late, how do we make sense of it? One place to gain insight (and perhaps even some comfort), is from Paper 3 in the Urantia on the Attributes of God, is a paper dealing with the viscitiudes of living, and why there is pain and suffering in our world.Is courage important, is love desirable, are valor and altruism worthy pursuits? Let's explore these question together n this latest episode of the Urantia Radio podcast..

Author and Urantia Book student Ryan McGuire joins us to discuss his book The Case For The Urantia Book. McGuire lays out numerous cases for validating the Urantia Book's claim it is a divine revelation from non-human sources.

A candid conversation with long-time Urantia Book reader Joseph Morgan, who, among other things, single-handidly changed the lives of the entire State of Louisiana, and is probably the only person to ever have the opportunity to share the Urantia Book on national TV. Not to mention Joseph found the time to construct the only known Father's Temple to exist on the planet.

This is an essay that will change your life. It will really underscore the importance of revelation. It also potrays Jesus’ faith in us to recieve the whole story of God.

This episode covers two very important topics. First, the ten most important Ueantia Book teachings that could change the world. Plus, examining how the teachings of Christianity and the Jewish faith have made the world a better place, and how the Urantia Book continues the thread of religious revelation into the future.

How does the Trinity concept help harmonize faith with science? In Paper 104 from the Urantia Book, we learn about the Trinity Concept and how the functionality of Trinity aids us in understandng how God can both a personal loving spiritual father, at the same time can also be the primal energy source of an entire universe.

Taking a slight offramp in this episode, let's talk about a recent case where someone associated with the Urantia Book is "cancelled" because of so-called "ties to eugenics." Alvin Kulieke, related to David and Marilynn Kulieke (early readers of the Urantia Book), was a long-time teacher and principle at Prospect High, well regarded for his long tenure at the school. A student journalist who looked into the Urantia Book felt its writings promoted eugenics, which, of course, is ludicrous. Still, the school board did agree to remove Alvin's name from the school's theater marquee. This being the first event I can recall where the Uratia Book resulted in someone being "cancelled." The lesson is we, as students of the revelation, need to prepare for defense. The Urantia Book makes many bold proclamations, that, if taken out of context, could be used against it. Today, there are many forces in the world that would prefer the Urantia Book ndid ot exist; its liberating truth gets in the way of the sordid influence being wielded by organizations of great power. They refuse to believe that "the Most HIgh rule in the kingdom of men." It will not just be the Urantia Book that is attacked,, it wll be all of Christendom under fire. This recent epsiode in Upstate Illinois just demonstrates how easy it is for instituions to cave in on (supposed) public opinion.

In this episode we explore Paper 112:3 and the three kinds of death. The subject of human personality is also clarified, and we learn what happens to our spirit when we pass from the human life to the next stage of existence on the Mansion worlds. The revelators offer a comprehensive explanation of the phenomena of death - but also the more important concept of survival of the human personality beyond the limitations of material life.

The Urantia Book tells us much the genesis of war and why it persists. It is also thoroighly explains why it must be abandon. It's wirht a good rview of Paper 70 and its first two sections on War.

Father's Day is an excellent opportunity to look at the spiritual value of fathers in mortal life, and how human fathers shape our view of the greatest father of all, the Creator Father. Prayer is the method through which we can attain a connection with our father in Paradise because he has sealed within each of us a fragment of his spirit, which provides a living personal connection to and with Him during our mortal lives. Happy Fathers Day to all of those dads who make such a profound difference to our children, in service to the Father who has made life possible.

UBtheNews founder and longtime Urantia Book reader Halbert Katzen shares important insights as to the next vital step for wider acceptance of the Urantia Book. We discuss mysticism, channeling, repudiation and other distractions that undermine Urantia credibility. To Halbert's credit, his UBAnnotated project (and UBtheNews) continues to challenge UB skeptics by providing evidentiary information that validates the Urantia Book assertions on anthrooplogy, geology, early human history, race, Adam and Eve's legacy and other fascinating subjects.

During these times it is good to reflect back at the early beginnings of man and and the first revelation gifted to us by the Sons of the Most High, and also to spend a few minutes to consider the power of prayer and worship as spiritual aids, and how connection to God is vital to our spiritual growth.
