We continue our discussion with Allen, touching on themes around his latest book "Risk the Real", a wake up call to defy the artificial and embrace your actual authentic life as it is offered by your actual Creator.
He's also giving away a copy of Risk the Real" to one of you lucky Misfits out there. Allz you gotta do is leave a comment on the shownotes at isleofmisfits.com/ by April 30th, and you're in it to win it, baby! But wait, there's more! If you correctly answer the question about the show in the shownotes, you'll be entered TWICE. Now isn't THAT nice??? (and yes, you can do this for episode 1... so for you math whizzes out there, that's a total of 4, count em 4 entries!)

More About "Risk the Real"
The Clash Between the Real and the Artificial is Intensifying…
and You Are the Prize.
Every aspect of life is being invaded by the artificial. But we miss what's at stake when we assume it's inevitable, natural, or even neutral. It actually began in Eden when the serpent offered Adam and Eve a counterfeit reality based on the Tree of Knowledge and the promise to become like gods.
These ancient roots entangle us in more ways than we realize. We seek to redefine reality in our image. We look to the unreal to make us more real. Nothing fazes or amazes us anymore. We stumble through life in a Partificial Daze—partially present and fully disoriented by an artificial haze of anxiety, exhaustion, and addiction.
What's needed is a reality reorientation:

Allz you gotta do is leave a comment on the shownotes at https://isleofmisfits.com/ by April 30th, and you're in it to win it, baby! But wait, there's more! If you correctly answer the question about the show at the bottom, you'll be entered TWICE. Now isn't THAT nice??? (and yes, you can do this for episode 2 when it drops... so for you math whizzes out there, that's a total of 4, count em 4 entries!)

Blaine Eldredge: The Paradise King
Blaine Eldredge, author, teacher, and builder of platforms to help the church thrive in late modernity (oh yes, and son of John and Stasi Eldredge of Wild at Heart Ministries, in case you were wondering) joins us on the Isle to talk about... well, everything. That is, the spectacular future of everything, as described in his new book "The Paradise King".
If that wasn't enough, there's even a poetry slam, Stupid Game style. We won't give it away, as it must be heard to be believed but we will say this much.
Emily Dickinson.
Gilligan's Island.
It does not disappoint.
