The Element of Being | Perilous World Radio 5/07/25

On this episode of the Perilous World Radio show, hosts Alan Masters and Brian Bouteller from the Grants Pass Gospel Rescue Mission delve into the fascinating life of inventor Nikola Tesla. Alan highlights Tesla's unique approach to innovation, noting that he often experienced sudden bursts of clarity when developing his ideas. These moments of inspiration would frequently arrive alongside visual hallucinations and intense flashes of light, overwhelming him with a profound understanding of various devices and theories in an instant. He believed that this knowledge came from a higher source of knowledge. In a moment of reflection, Alan contemplates the essence of courage and the strength of character exemplified by Jesus Christ. He realizes that true courage stems from faithfulness to God, contrasting it with the superficial displays of bravery often portrayed in Hollywood. Alan wonders why many men falter in their strength, despite knowing the right path and having the example of Jesus before them. He recognizes that while everyone experiences doubt, this doubt does not equate to a lack of faith. Instead, faith is about believing in what lies beyond sight—a deep trust in God. Alan likens human existence to that of a caterpillar, limited in perspective, while recognizing that God has much to offer. He reflects on how a fleeting moment of insight can provide profound thoughts to ponder throughout the day, prompting him to question his own strength of character and faith. In the end, he comes to a profound understanding that walking by faith means embracing the unseen and steadfastly resisting the pull of doubt. This revelation unfolds within the first hour of the show, setting the stage for an inspiring journey. The second half of the event is set to be even more exciting, showcasing a vibrant energy from Alan, Brian, and Colonel Tony Monaco, who is representing the Patriot Outreach. Their shared faith and enthusiasm for the journey ahead promise an inspiring and refreshing experience for everyone involved.
