Can anyone recommend some accessible, scholarly books on the Merkabah tradition? There appears to be so much stuff clouded with contemporary New Age material that it’s hard to know what’s actually worthwhile and relevant to the historical tradition. #religiousstudies #religion #judaism #mysticism

Well deserved!
Oh man, what a great name for a show!
Any other Frightened Rabbit fans never heard this deep cut with James Graham? Just me? It’s sad boy season and we’re pulling the 2010s out of retirement:

Thanks!
Do you happen to know if this was recorded? They’re, like, my two favorite people 🤩

And Milchick’s comment that Mark’s innies happiness would come to him in time.
Thank you for this reminder! Incredibly consequential timing for a project I’m working on.
Here we go, folks. The statements are becoming more and more bold, with implications ever more consequential. For those waiting to see what role Jay Stratton may play, pay attention to what he flatly and unapologetically attests to in this trailer. #ufoSky

I appeared on Iowa Catholic Radio KMMK’s Kolbe Konnection podcast to discuss my film about beer brewing monks, AI and sacred art, my journey of faith, and UFOs. It was a fun and wide ranging conversation, available via Spotify! open.spotify.com/episode/4U7i...
I’m also excited to share my interview discussing the exhibition with Michael O’Neill on his radio show “The Miracle Hunter,” hosted by EWTN. Listen here or wherever you get your podcasts:

No guarantees, but if you DM me an address I can reach you at, I may be able to send you some of my work! Reach out if any of the above interests you!
I’ll be posting the digital exhibition of my MFA show, about Catholic visual history, relics, miracles and AI, very soon. I’ve spoken with some folks already, but I have a very limited amount of artworks/souvenirs from the show to send out to those who are interested. (1/2)
Also tune in for discussions of St Janiarus and the liquefaction of his blood (occurring every year on Dec 16th, and other times) as well as the reconstruction of Notre Dame.
I’ll be appearing on EWTN’s Miracle Hunter radio show/podcast tomorrow, Dec 28th at 1 and 7pm, discussing the release of the digital exhibition of my show Felt Presence. We look at the Catholic visual tradition and relics as they relate to art and culture today.
I was honored to serve as the graduate commencement speaker at Towson University’s College of Fine Arts and Communication, having graduated with my Studio Art MFA. Watch me ugly (stoically?) cry at: www.youtube.com/live/2VEVmqQ...

I wrote a thing on X about why I’m choosing Bluesky.
“Hearing stories of events like Fatima, weighed against some of my personal experiences, I’ve leaned more into the direction of wanting to dissect the tradition, get into the weeds, play with the material and make sense of it myself."
My MFA thesis exhibition "Felt Presence" is featured on the Catholic news outlet Aleteia: aleteia.org/2024/12/03/a...
I have forthcoming articles about the artworks of St. Francis’s mystical experiences, analyzing how and why they changed over time, as well as a large body of work exploring the history of miraculous rose petal images and photography as modern relics. Stay tuned!
