Beyond Jesus: Patricia Pearce - A Former Pastor's Journey into Mystical Awareness
In this conversation, we speak with writer and spiritual teacher Patricia Pearce, whose journey from Presbyterian pastor to mystic invites us to rethink the boundaries of faith and spiritual identity. Patricia shares how a profound shift in consciousness opened her to the illusion of separateness and the deeper unity beneath all things. Together, we explore the transformation that led her to leave the institutional church and step into her vocation as a writer and guide on unitive consciousness.
*****
Patricia Pearce was born and raised in Denver, Colorado. After graduating from college she served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in the Andes of Ecuador, an experience that set her on a path of spiritual exploration and into ordained ministry.
For seventeen years she served as a Presbyterian pastor, but in the early 2000's, following the death of a close friend, she experienced a spiritual awakening which showed her that Reality is an interconnected whole, the essence of which is Love; that separateness and the separate self are illusions in the mind; and that this world is a form of dream.
The insights from her awakening led her beyond the bounds of conventional Christian belief, and in 2010 she left the Church to embark on a vocation of writing, speaking, and teaching about the global shift into unitive consciousness.
She is the author of two books—Beyond Jesus: My Spiritual Odyssey; and No One in I Land: A Parable of Awakening.
Patricia shares her latest writings and podcasts on her WeAwakening Substack. You can learn more about her and her offerings on her website, www.patriciapearce.com.
