October Inspirational Podcast on Line

In the final episode for 2018, Scott ‘Q’ Marcus interviews Chaplain Carl Magruder of Resolution Care.

Chaplain Magruder, a non-denominational spiritual leader, and Scott, engage in a free-wheeling and long-ranging talk on everything from ‘What is Mortality?’ to ‘Are computers sentient?’

From his experience in dealing with hundreds of people facing their last moments, he talks about what he’s learned, who has inspired him, whether we exist beyond this material level, and even whether or not death of our existence. This is not a talk about religion, but more about the connection each of us to the universe as a whole.
