Episode 33 · The testimony
An Interview with Jonathan Hansen
The whole story: a Baptist upbringing, an encounter with God at fifteen through unorthodox means, a life given to Christ and the Church — theological formation in London and Texas, chaplaincy at Imperial College and the Royal Colleges, teaching, priesthood — and the long-standing calling to be a psychedelic missioner to the Church. Clint and I also talk honestly about bad trips, discernment, and what holy intention means.
Clint and I sit down with Dr. Bill Richards — clinical psychologist, one of the longest-serving researchers of psychedelics in the world, and author of Sacred Knowledge: Psychedelics and Religious Experiences. A generous, wide-ranging conversation about mystical experience, the sacred, and what six decades of research have taught him.
