Peace and Friendship

On the next Stay Peaceful, Peace and Friendship will be our topic.

As Easter happens this weekend, Easter Sunday is the day that Christians mark the most holy event of their calendar. Christ reportedly said: "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends" (John 15:13).

So, Stay Peaceful will be discussing the topic of friendship and its inherent value and meaning in our lives, lives that often strain to find true friendship.

This will prove to be an interesting show.

I hope you can tune in.

Stay Peaceful,

Jason

Peace and Prayer

On today's Stay Peaceful, our topic will be Peace and Prayer.

As Catholics enter their most holy week, prayer is a central activity that all are called to do. Daily, obligatory prayer is a hallmark of most religions, and the attendant experience of prayer has been cited as a benefit not only spiritually, but physically to the one praying.

So, today's Stay Peaceful will focus on aspects of prayer and ideas surrounding the practice. From uttered, sung and intoned prayer to silent prayer to promises of prayer, this activity is as everyday as sunshine for many.

SPECIAL GUEST: John Sargent, Bahá'í Community of Kamloops

I hope you can tune in.

Stay Peaceful,

Jason

Consumerism and Peace

On the next Stay Peaceful, the topic will be Consumerism and Peace.

We live in a highly commercialized environment. The so-called "American Dream" that was forged after WWII is now being chased by several countries that had previously rejected the idea of reaching for the proverbial brass ring. The "Pursuit of Happiness" is now synonymous with the pursuit of wealth. The North American economy has demonstrated that consumerism is not sustainable, nor is it a healthy way to live, environmentally or spiritually.

So, this Sunday's discussion on Stay Peaceful will focus the following areas of consideration:

  • What does consumerism tout as the way to live?
  • What have been the effects of consumerism to individual peace and happiness?
  • What do writings, modern and ancient, have to say about living a consumerist life?
  • Since we all must consume to live, how should an individual live as a consumer?
  • How do we make good choices in regards to our need to consume?
These issues will be discussed on the next Stay Peaceful.


I hope you can tune in.

Stay Peaceful,

Jason

Peace and Memory

On the next Stay Peaceful, the topic will be Peace and Memory.

Mental health is often marked by the ability to have a "good" memory. Yet, memory is a confounding issue. Many studies suggest that the idea of "selective memory" is really the case at all times. Memories can soothe, elate, entertain, but memories can also cause depression and be a source for mental disease. Memories can serve as the source of our present reality, according to some philosophical views.

So, Stay Peaceful will explore this topic with a focus on the the relationship between memory and our inner peace.

I hope you can tune in.

Stay Peaceful,

Jason

Fasting and Peace

On the next Stay Peaceful, the topic will be Fasting and Peace.

Fasting is an ancient practice, often used today for its health benefits. Health food stores proffer cleanses and other packages of supplements to aid in making your body healthier through a controlled series of fasts.

Fasting has a spiritual aspect as well. Fasting is promoted and practiced in practically every major religion and nonreligious quest today. Historically touted as a way to "draw closer" to a seeker's goal or spiritual desire, fasting could be the most common tradition in a spiritual journey. However, despite this call to fast, many followers of spiritual traditions do not practice this mandatory aspect of their faith.

Fasting has also entered the social landscape as a method of protest, as a way to challenge power and injustice. Often successful, this aspect of fasting is gaining wider and wider popularity with recent social and economic issues worldwide.

The next Stay Peaceful will discuss fasting and its relationship to peace, both personally and globally.

This week's show will be 2 hours, starting at noon and running until 2pm Pacific.

I hope you can tune in,

Stay Peaceful,

Jason
