Can reason alone lead us to God? Proving That Deism Is True presents a clear, evidence‑based case for an impersonal creator — the independent, non‑material source of the universe’s existence and order.

Through logic, science, and philosophy, host Dr. Jay Forrest argues that Deism best fits reality: a Creator who made the universe but does not intervene in daily affairs. Rational faith, grounded in reason.

Main Idea: Design requires a Designer.

What do we make of modern-day miracles? Are they true acts of divine intervention—or something else entirely? This episode asks how a perfect Creator could need to “fix” the universe through miracles, given the realities of evil, suffering, and natural disaster.

We also explore the opposite view: that so-called miracles arise from human perception—mass hysteria, placebo effects, psychosomatic healing, or simple coincidence. Could faith itself be the true agent of change?

From a Deist perspective, perhaps the universe itself is God’s perfect design, needing no intervention. Nature, not scripture, is the divine revelation.

Join us for a thought-provoking journey into the mystery of miracles, faith, and reason.

Key Idea: God makes masterpieces, not mistakes.

What happens when the quiet clarity of Zen meets the rational spirit of Deism? In this first episode, we explore Zen Deism—a spiritual approach that combines the Deist’s trust in reason with the Zen practitioner’s devotion to meditation.

Drawing from thinkers like Paul Tillich, Anthony Flew, and Aristotle, this episode examines God not as a “supreme being,” but as the Ground of Being—the infinite intelligence underlying all. From dhyāna to Deism, from silent sitting to clear seeing, we’ll look at how meditation becomes a way to reconnect with the mystery reason reveals but cannot explain.

Join me as I trace my own path from Deist philosophy to Zen practice, discovering what it means to live with a Deist mind and a Zen heart.

Key idea: God gave us reason, not revelation.
