The Frontier Beyond Fear (Susan Larison Danz)

First show in the series...Author of the upcoming book "The Frontier Beyond Fear", Susan Larison Danz has written extensively online about transcending the often unspoken fear-based beliefs and patterns from her conservative evangelical past. Described as a "talented and powerful" inspirational writer and a "sacred activist", Susan's honest, heartfelt online posts expressing challenging spiritual questions have been surfaced multiple times via popularity to the front page of the entire Oprah web site. Susan seeks a common ground of understanding and dialogue as the first step in healing the perceived spiritual/religious divisions within our society and within our hearts. With her own journey as an example, she unabashedly addresses the anguished conflicts of conscience experienced by many being told they must justify fear in the name of Love.

In a continuation of the premiere episode of "The Frontier Beyond Fear", inspirational writer Susan Larison Danz will examine 1 Corinthians 13 (often called "the Love chapter" in the Bible) from a perspective firmly anchored in Unconditional Love, reflecting the expanding consciousness of humanity, free from fear. Susan will also discuss common misconceptions and generalizations about those who believe a "New Age" is dawning for humanity, as well as point out the common ground we share in anticipating a coming era of Peace on Earth, a time when humanity does indeed release its "childish ways" of fear.

Inspirational writer and sacred activist Susan Larison Danz will spontaneously discuss her heartfelt perspectives on Freedom of Religion and the Tea Party movement, from the standpoint of someone who came from a conservative background and understands multiple points of view, even while currently embracing some more liberal philosophies. People may talk of liberty all day long (and Susan has heard the talk), but if true freedom of religion is not one of those liberties, if only one religion is considered paramount in government and society, if it's considered perfectly fine for government to intervene in matters deemed by some to be incompatible with that particular religion, then what does this have to do with liberty? Susan has been listening closely to multiple perspectives recently, including Fox News and Glenn Beck. She will provide some insights into the challenges we face in a pluralistic society in understanding and respecting the spiritual viewpoints of others. Susan is not currently affiliated with any political party. She voted for George W. Bush (in his initial run, not the second time) and Barack Obama.

As the U.S. election season draws to a close, it seems that the divides between many of us couldn't be greater. Yet is that really the case? Spiritual writer Susan Larison Danz will spontaneously reflect upon the remarkable parallels she has seen among seemingly divided groups of people, drawing on her observations in the past week of both the Glenn Beck show and Jon Stewart's Rally to Restore Sanity. Susan has walked multiple paths in her life, both politically and spiritually. It is her intent to seek and promote understanding of multiple perspectives.

A dedicated Christian who has been deeply involved in the faith community for many years, Su Elliott founded the meetup group "Portland Christians with Questions" (http://www.meetup.com/Portland-Christians-with-Questions/) in January 2010 to give evangelical Christians an opportunity to explore challenging doctrinal questions in a supportive, non-judgmental setting. This group is very specifically "not anti-Christian" and designed for people "who are deeply committed to Christ, but can't stop asking questions that they are afraid to ask in church or are not satisfied with the answers they get". The group is not hesitant to take on questions such as "Is the Bible still to be taken literally in all ways and all days? If it's not, then how do we deal with the Pandora's box that opens for us?" A composer, artist, director, writer, vocal arranger and playwright, Su Elliott spent 13 years singing, directing and composing for the "Desperate Measures" Christian music and comedy troupe, with songs taking on some delicate, challenging topics within conservative Christianity (http://su-elliott.co.cc/csn.html). In what promises to be a unique dialogue addressing topics rarely discussed, Susan Larison Danz and Su Elliott will openly and honestly discuss deep philosophical questions faced by many evangelicals and ex-evangelicals.

Susan Larison Danz will have a conversation with Kevin Fitzgerald, author of "The Contract", a divine dialogue on relationships and spiritual awakening. Kevin Fitzgerald facilitates empowered journeys worldwide with spiritual leaders such as don Miguel Ruiz and David Wilcock. A teacher of A Course in Miracles (ACIM), Kevin will discuss how a mystical approach to Christianity has transformed his life. Kevin considers forgiveness to be the gateway to returning our awareness to true Oneness with the Divine and with one another. During this time of transition for so many people, he will discuss his powerful initiatory journey from seemingly having it all to losing it all, only to discover Everything in the process. Kevin's web site is http://www.LivingEmpoweredNow.com

Susan Larison Danz will reflect upon the value of the cherished individual within the greater reality of All That Is. Many of us have come to realize that we are united as One, but we must never forget that each of us was created to be a beloved, unique expression of the Rainbow of Creation.

During the past week, just about everyone has been talking about the new airport security procedures. After a rather tumultuous week in which many of us have felt the push and pull of strong emotions and often deeply held convictions, Susan Larison Danz will talk about her own emotional journey regarding this topic, then reflect upon a perspective that seeks to transcend what troubles so many of us, no matter what our particular point of view. As we appreciate the fellowship of dear family and friends this holiday weekend, could it be possible that we can ALL find our way to that place where we truly want to live, the place where we want our children to live, that place where we live free from fear?

Launching a new series of programs for 2011, "Frontier Beyond Fear" host Susan Larison Danz will reflect upon what true planetary Transformation and Awakening actually imply for the "Darth Vaders" of the world. Do we choose to believe in a limited version of the Shift, or can we trust in the Hope of global Awakening? Do we choose to cling to endless patterns of fear-based retribution or can we accept the possibility of miraculous Transformation? What if we discovered a Now so immersed in unconditional Love that even forgiveness itself was transcended? That's what the Shift awaiting Humanity is all about.

Portland "Christians with Questions" facilitator Su Elliott makes a return appearance to the Frontier Beyond Fear radio program to have an honest, thought-provoking dialogue with Susan Larison Danz, a "New Ager" with an evangelical past. Today's focus is exploring our questions and beliefs regarding the concept of "Evil", comparing and contrasting Christian and New Age perspectives. Susan Larison Danz's heartfelt questions regarding Biblical inerrancy, the status of women and the concept of hell have been surfaced in the past as top posts via viewership on the Oprah® discussion forum (under pseudonym "bridgebldr"). Susan leads support groups for people struggling with fear-based beliefs at spiritual conferences. A dedicated Christian, Su Elliott regularly meets with Christians in the Portland, Oregon area to discuss challenging questions regarding their Faith. Su also spent 13 years directing the Desperate Measures Christian music & comedy troupe.

Award-winning author of "The Voice of the Muse: Answering the Call to Write", Mark David Gerson is a screenwriter, spiritual mentor, motivational speaker and creativity coach. He is currently actively engaged in pre-production for "The Q`ntana Trilogy" of films based on his visionary novel "The Moonquest: A True Fantasy". Mark David's life journey has been a pure walk of faith, demonstrating all that is possible when you open your heart. Susan Larison Danz first encountered Mark David when he became her coach a couple of years ago, at a time when much of her writing was anonymous on the Oprah discussion forum, often on controversial topics. Through the encouragement and inspiration of Mark David's coaching, Susan found the courage to authentically claim and expand her voice. Mark David only does limited coaching these days due to his busy schedule, but he is discovering ever more radiant ways to inspire others.

Christine Wushke and Susan Larison Danz will explore the mysteries of the sacred together, including a spontaneous chat about parenting (and why the "non tiger mom" approach is our choice as conscious parents). Christine is a certified yoga, meditation and Satsang instructor with over 15 years experience. Susan is a complete yoga neophyte (and not afraid to ask the questions on the minds of not-feeling-so-limber beginners ;-). We'll also talk about quieting the mind, expanded states of consciousness and mystical encounters with dolphins. Join the conversation, add comments/questions on the show page - and don't hesitate to ask your yoga and meditation questions, as Christine is widely recognized for her masterful, gentle teaching. Christine's web site is http://innerlightyoga.blogspot.com/. (Note: Parenting discussion begins around 28:00.)

Have "the End Times" commenced? Is it the End or the Beginning? Will we be judged or healed? Will our Consciousness expand? Who qualifies for the rapture or ascension? Will anyone be "left behind"? Is "God" a neutral energy field, a loving personal Creator or some combination of the two? What does God's omnipresence imply? Can the concept of eternal hell be consistent with conscience or Love? Is an existence free of challenge actually heaven? Is the Earth undergoing a clearing or initiation? Must we suffer to evolve or find God? What about 2012? Does reincarnation exist? Are there "soul agreements" in which the ends justify the means? Do demons exist? How about extraterrestrials? No topic is off limits for this wide-ranging discussion between spiritual writer Susan Larison Danz and Portland "Christians with Questions" founder Su Elliott. What is your perspective? Feel free to leave comments/questions and we will respond. And expect another show soon, as we continue the discussion...

Learn more about how New Agers view the world at a huge L.A. metaphysical Expo, interviewed from the perspective of someone with an evangelical past. Spiritual writer and bridge builder Susan Larison Danz will reflect about the gathering and spontaneously talk with people at the Conscious Life Expo in Los Angeles (http://www.consciouslifeexpo.com). Also, an answer to the question from the last show on how some New Agers perceive and deal with "demons" - a brief interview with "psychic house cleaner" Sheldon Norberg in the second hour of the show. Mystical Christian Kevin Fitzgerald also returns to the show in the first hour.

If our Creator is Love, then why do darkness and cruelty exist on the planet? Is it all about free choice? If a "devil" or "demons" are responsible, then wouldn't their very existence diminish the Love and power of our Creator? Can darkness and pain exist without a Divinely sanctioned purpose? Susan Larison Danz is a New Age spiritual writer with an evangelical past, choosing to now openly call herself "a New Ager with questions". Su Elliott is a Christian musical director, former worship leader and the founder of the growing Portland, Oregon group "Christians with Questions". Susan and Su will authentically explore their honest questions of conscience on this topic and more...

Visionary entrepreneur & shamanic explorer Ross Blaine will discuss this powerful question with host Susan Larison Danz, including how one can still have a personal relationship with the Divine, along with other topics exploring New Age and shamanic teachings. Ross has studied alternative spirituality for over 20 years, including New Age thought, Native American, Meso-American & South American spirituality, shamanism, paganism and the occult. As a Master Practitioner of Energy Medicine, he has studied in Peru with Andean shamans. Susan first met Ross several years ago while participating in a group studying the teachings of shaman "nagual" don Miguel Ruiz. At the time, Susan also participated in a couple of shamanic ceremonies with Ross at a Medicine Wheel. This was all new to Susan (very soon after her leaving the evangelical church), and she continues to be curious about what she observed and experienced. We will also discuss the significance of 2012 and how Ross believes it relates to the end of the karmic cycle of reincarnation on Earth. We will discuss healing wounds from past lives, the nature of time, as well as a brief exploration of indigenous views of ETs.

If God is Love, why should anyone ever fear God? Does fear have a purpose? What if fear-based, divisive depictions of the "End Times" are resulting in fear of the very unity that will deliver us? Has fear skewed common evangelical interpretations of the Bible? Why should anyone ever be afraid to question? Will a quantum expansion of Consciousness transcend fear to bring humanity together? Host Susan Larison Danz is "a New Ager with questions", a spiritual writer & speaker with an evangelical past who has written extensively online about her honest questions. Su Elliott is a Christian musical director, former evangelical worship leader and the founder of the growing Portland, Oregon group "Christians with Questions". Join Susan and Su as they authentically explore their honest questions of conscience, making new discoveries in the process...

Inspirational writer & speaker Susan Larison Danz will spontaneously reflect upon the crisis in Japan, including her thoughts on how the power of Faith is not exclusive to any one spiritual group, yet can elude us if we are caught in fear. We are ALL connected, and at no time is that more apparent than after a natural disaster. We will also once again revisit the topic of the End Times/Beginning Times and 2012, from a non-fear-based, uplifting perspective.

Join "New Ager with Questions" Susan Larison Danz and Portland "Christians with Questions" founder Su Elliott for an in-depth exploration of the concept of hell, including a discussion of minister Rob Bell's new book "Love Wins", in which he claims an eternal torturous hell has nothing to do with the true Christian message. A New Ager with an evangelical past, Susan Larison Danz has had questions about hell most of her life, eventually launching her online writing career questioning hell through one of the "hottest" posts ever on a popular conservative Christian apologetics forum (with well over 1000 replies) - a discussion the forum eventually shut down as "no longer relevant". Susan went on to ask more questions on the Oprah discussion forum, with a post on hell in 2008 appearing as the top "Everyone's Talking About" discussion forum topic on the front page of the entire Oprah web site. Su Elliott is a former conservative evangelical worship leader of conscience who sincerely questions how a loving God would ever cause eternal suffering with no reprieve.

Portland Christians with Questions founder Su Elliott will join host Susan Larison Danz for an honest, heartfelt discussion of how fear-based approaches to spirituality and religion can result in lingering wounds that often go unacknowledged and unhealed.  Is it ever helpful to berate people experiencing hardship or illness that they are to blame, either because of their lack of belief, prayer or intent?  Such behavior is commonplace in both the Christian and New Age communities. How does a belief in hell or a violent or indifferent God result in distancing people from a personal experience of the Divine?  How can we transcend the wounds and seek true healing?  Join this provocative discussion in our chat room.  Susan will be facilitating a live support session on this topic at the Portland Body Mind Spirit Expo at the Oregon Convention Center 2:00 PM Sunday, April 17, where Su will also be participating.

Easter reflections upon the verses in the Bible pertaining to unconditional Love and what they imply about the awakening and transformation of all of humanity.

Can a "New Ager" have a personal relationship with God?  Is God a "We"?  And are we all part of that "We"?  Are we lower level beings with respect to God or are we God expressed in human form?  Are many of us suffering from the "I'm not worthy" syndrome with respect to God?  Did we each exist before we were born, and are there many more incarnations to come?  What about astral projection, prophetic experiences, meditation and Oracle cards?  How do two people with scientific backgrounds embrace and express our authentic spiritual paths?  We will ponder concepts prevalent in "New Age" circles (for lack of a better label), exploring these ideas through multiple perspectives.  Inspirational writer Susan Larison Danz will look through the lens of her evangelical past, asking some challenging questions in the process.  Longtime "New Ager" Bryan Ressler will provide his perspectives in this relaxed, wide-ranging conversation.  The intent of this conversation is to better define and understand multiple spiritual perspectives, even when they are seemingly at odds with one another.   We may be surprised to discover just how much we share in common.

If you think you are free, does that make you free?  Is freedom something you truly possess or seek?  Can you be free if authoritarian structures exist in the workplace, in society, or on your spiritual/religious path?  Who decides the limits to freedom a society is willing to allow?  And when does that become oppression?  Is our freedom in the U.S. decreasing or increasing?  And what does that say about the state of our country and the world?  If there is freedom of religion in a society, is it appropriate to impose beliefs on others that they do not accept - for example, with respect to women's rights or the right to marry?  Will expanded Consciousness ultimately set us ALL free? Susan Larison Danz and Bryan Ressler thoughtfully explore the concept of freedom from diverse perspectives, taking it to a higher spiritual level. Both Susan and Bryan are active in the inspirational community.

Bishop Carlton Pearson is transforming the world with his courageous, uplifting message of Inclusion and Expanded Consciousness.   Bishop Pearson has invited a stellar array of enlightened spiritual leaders to the Inclusion 2011 Conference July 28-31, bringing together powerful teachers such as Bishop John Shelby Spong and Rev. Michael Beckwith.   Bishop Pearson is the author of two spiritually liberating books: "God is Not a Christian, Nor a Jew, Muslim, Hindu...God Dwells With Us, In Us, Around Us, As Us" & The Gospel of Inclusion: Reaching Beyond Religious Fundamentalism to the True Love of God and Self".   Once a popular evangelical minister and singer with a large conservative following, Bishop Pearson experienced a life-changing revelation regarding the non-existence of an eternal punitive hell. He fearlessly chose to preach about the true Unconditional Love of God to his conservative congregation.   Labeled a heretic by his fundamentalist peers, he lost his entire evangelical mega-church. But he launched a powerful new ministry, spreading the Loving enlightenment of a Message firmly grounded in conscience, focused on the Unconditional Love that personally empowers each and every one of us.   Join us in the first hour on The Frontier Beyond Fear to experience an enlightening live conversation with one of the most courageous, uplifting spiritual teachers of our time. A live chat room will be open for comments and questions from listeners. Learn more about Bishop Pearson at http://bishoppearson.com/. 

Fear is a choice.  If we allow Fear to take control over our lives and our choices, we are setting ourselves up for distress, disillusionment and disempowerment.  The Fear habit is one we break by making a Conscious choice to be empowered in the moment.  You don't need to worry about the hour, the day, the week, the month, or the year.  When you master the moment, you master your life, one moment at a time.  Join Susan Larison Danz for a spontaneous discussion.  The chat room will be open.

Playwright and performer Swithin Fry shares the poignant story of his penpal correspondence with Tim, a convict on Ohio's Death Row.  From his vantage point in the United Kingdom, Swithin became aware of the difficulties Tim has faced seeking a retrial, leading to Swithin visiting Tim in prison and launching "Tim's Hope Campaign". In Swithin's words..."I'm not saying they are all innocent; I'm not saying that Tim is innocent - though I believe he is.  I'm saying the death penalty is wrong, morally wrong, the same way that killing is wrong, morally wrong.  Tim is seeking a retrial.  Nothing more, nothing less." On March 1, Swithin debuted a monologue he wrote about his experience visiting Tim, performed at a major regional theater in England.  Swithin hopes to take this on tour in America. Swithin and host Susan Larison Danz discuss how as a civilized, enlightened society, we must humanize our understanding of "justice" in consideration of the accused, the convicted and the victims.  Compassion,  conscience and truth can set our society free.
