The Dr Pat Show, April 6, 2011
Regardless of your religious beliefs, there is no denying that the Bible informs much of America's culture. Historical and cultural touchstones that range from the Da Vinci Code to many of today's socio-political movements have been strongly influenced by the Bible. Yet, most people know little about the book itself and where it came from.
Raised a garden-variety Lutheran in northern Minnesota, Kristin Swenson studied biology and religion in college before earning a Ph.D. in the history and literature of ancient Israel. For over fifteen years, she has shared her passion for learning about the Bible, its history and literature, with seminary and university students. She is associate professor of religious studies at Virginia Commonwealth University's School of World Studies and fellow at the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities. Particular interests include the Bible and ecology, theology, science and religion, mysticism, and food and religion.
The Dr Pat Show
Called “The Oprah of Radio” by her listeners, award-winning host, Dr. Pat Baccili is blowing the doors off of traditional talk radio shows with her energizing delivery and powerful interviews with renowned leaders in the field of human potential.
Her fresh, new perspective on living life full out has catapulted her show to the top position in alternative talk radio! She’s a ‘CAN-DO’ kind of gal who will help you break free from everything that’s keeping you stuck in. Dr. Pat brings her cut-to-the-chase attitude and delivers a common sense approach to spirituality using common language that is powerful and entertaining.
The show is all about being informed, savvy, and open to the possibilities of the spiritual world. It’s about how to develop strategic relationships and understanding the law of attraction and how to put it to use in your life. But mostly, it’s about demystifying spirituality. “You don’t have to be a monk living in a monastery and meditating daily to understand that you are truly a divine spiritual being. So tune in, because I want to help you THRIVE, not merely survive!” – Dr. Pat
