In this episode of From God To Jerry To You, we explore the moment that changed everything: when Jerry heard God's voice for the first time. What began as a private prayer became a divine calling—“Tell My Story.”

But what does that mean in a world of many religions, traditions, and truths?

Jerry shares how God's message was not confined to one faith or one people, but revealed in different ways across history and cultures.

From ancient Israel to India, from sacred texts to personal moments of clarity, divine Reality calls to each of us uniquely.

Can we hear that call in our own lives? What does it mean to be part of God's story today?

This episode invites you to reflect on your own path and how to recognize your most intimate access to the divine.

Romantic Awakening, Divine Listening, and the Inner Self

What does it mean to fall in love, not just with a person, but with the mystery of life itself?

In this heartfelt and thought-provoking episode of What's On Our Mind, Jerry and Scott reflect on the deep emotional and spiritual themes raised in recent episodes and discuss two new series: Jerry and Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue, and What's Your Spiritual Story?

From romantic love and divine connection to shadow work and self-integration, they explore how transformation often begins with listening—really listening—to our hearts, our partners, and the quiet whisper of God.

Scott shares personal growth from theater, marriage, and divine interruptions. Jerry opens up about his "real conversion" which was not to religion, but to love itself.

Together, they trace the difference between merging and mutuality, between fantasy and devotion, and between reaction and responsibility.

This episode is for anyone who’s ever asked: Can I really be known, and loved, as a whole person?

Welcome to What’s Your Spiritual Story: a new series from God: An Autobiography, The Podcast, featuring candid conversations with people whose spiritual lives have been reshaped by direct encounters with the divine.

In this first installment, Jerry L. Martin speaks with pastor and podcaster Mark Groleau, who returns to the show exactly 100 episodes after his original appearance.

Mark’s story is one of radical transformation. Raised in a strict Oneness Pentecostal tradition, he was trained to preach, taught to defend doctrine, and discouraged from asking questions. But once he began studying literature and scripture through a critical lens, everything changed. What followed was a deconstruction of his inherited faith, a period of atheism, and an eventual reawakening through a more expansive vision of God.

This episode follows Mark’s evolving relationship with the divine, from the static, all-powerful deity of classical theism to a God who suffers, listens, and grows. Influenced by thinkers like John Caputo, Jacques Derrida, Greg Boyd, and Terence Fretheim, Mark now embraces process theology, which sees God not as removed from the world but as intimately involved in its unfolding.

Jerry and Mark reflect on what it means to believe in a God who changes. They discuss suffering, divine vulnerability, and the tension between doctrine and experience. Mark also shares why Jesus’ teachings have become central to his life, and why many Christians, ironically, ignore them.

From Hebrew grammar to the Big Bang, from seminary classrooms to Buddhist temples in Korea, this is a conversation for anyone rethinking their faith and seeking something more relational, honest, and alive.

If you’ve ever wrestled with the question of who, or what, God really is, this conversation offers a starting point for something deeper.

Mentioned in this episode:
Creation Untamed by Terence Fretheim, Not Sure by John Suk, #JesusIsMyGuru, Process Theology, Open Theism, Wikigod Podcast, Bereshit, Patripassianism
