Transcript
0:00:13 Tansy Rodgers: Welcome back to the Energy Fix, a podcast dedicated to help you balance your energetic body by diving deep into the sweet world of all things health and spirituality. My name’s Tansy and I’m an intuitive crystal reiki energy healer, energetic nutrition and holistic health practitioner, and a crystal jewelry designer. It’s time to talk all things energy.
0:00:38 B: Let’s dive in.
0:00:40 Tansy Rodgers: There are just some episodes that feel destined, and this is one of them because we are landing on episode number 1111 11. It couldn’t be more aligned. 11 1, a sacred number sequence all about alignment, intuition, and new beginnings. And today’s conversation, well, it is pure soul medicine. I had the honor of sitting down with Michael McAdams, a beautiful channel and spiritual teacher who shares his powerful insights about how we connect with spirit, how to trust the guidance that we’re that we receive, and how to open ourselves to a deeper relationship with the unseen.
0:01:24 Tansy Rodgers: We’re going to be talking all about connecting into spirit and angels and what that means. And honestly, could it have come at a better episode number than 11 1? I’m so excited in this episode today, we’re gonna be talking all about spirit teachers, angels, intuition, the real challenges that we face when trying to listen and connect in, and how to clear the static so that we can hear the whispers that are meant just for us because they are around us all the time.
0:02:00 Tansy Rodgers: Just like waves in an ocean, they are coming in and out, ebbing and flowing. But are we hearing them? Are we hearing, hearing those whispers in the waves? This conversation that we’re going to have today feels like a warm light on the path. If you’ve been asking for signs, praying for clarity, or simply just longing to trust yourself again, I really enjoyed this conversation with Michael and just understanding and learning his process and learning how his life transformed into the work that he’s doing today.
0:02:38 Tansy Rodgers: All right, now, before we jump into this episode, as always, I like to give you some updates of things that are going on because there is always something spinning around in the world over here at Beu Complete and Beu Crystals. So wow, we can we just talk a little bit about energy right now? It is the beginning of my expo season, really. I’ve done a few expos already, but now we’re really diving in. I’m feeling the buzz. There is so much going on and I’m really excited because if we’re talking about powerful connections and sacred timing, this is such a great, a great connection to me and to what makes me feel alive and feel excited.
0:03:20 Tansy Rodgers: This Saturday, May 3rd, I will be at the May Day Metaphysical Market in Pottsville, Pennsylvania at the library. Come out and find me if you want to explore some crystals, get a dose of soul aligned vibes through the jewelry or just to say hi and connect because because as I’ve said so many times, that is my favorite part of doing expos is getting to connect with people. Then it is full steam ahead into the Spiritual Holistic Expo in Allentown, Pennsylvania and that’s happening May 17th and 18th. It is an incredible show.
0:03:58 Tansy Rodgers: It’s huge. It’s an incredible show with so many great vendors and if you are in that area and you love holistic wellness, you love metaphysical stuff, this is the place to be. It is another chance also to connect with me to shop my energy tools, to recharge in a space that is really filled with magic and good feelings. It is all of the feels there. So definitely something to come on out and check that out as well.
0:04:31 Tansy Rodgers: On Saturday, May 24, I will be doing for the first time live at an event I will doing mini energy healing sessions, energy Crystal healing sessions and offering a small but mighty display of Beu Crystal jewelry at Reiki by Ricky’s in Harrisburg. If you’ve never experienced that space, it’s so sacred. It is just beautiful and the people that are there, it’s a great feeling. So come on out, experience a mini session either by myself or one of the other practitioners that’ll be there.
0:05:09 Tansy Rodgers: Check out some of the other vendors that will be vending. It’s just a nice little place to get away and enjoy a day of low key shopping and connecting and energy healing and healing in general. So love to have you out there, love to see you there as well. And so as you can hear, there is a lot going on and that’s only a few things. I haven’t mentioned everything yet. I’ll do that in later episodes.
0:05:33 Tansy Rodgers: There’s so much going on, which means that I needed to decrease the amount of spots available for energy healing, one on one sessions in particular. So there are only four spots left for my Crystal Energy healing and intuitive sessions in the month of May. It’s going to be a wildly busy month and so I am so grateful for doing the work that I do and being able to have the privilege of doing energy healing and holistic wellness practice with each and every one of you.
0:06:10 Tansy Rodgers: But I also have to honor my own energy and so so if you are interested, definitely grab one of those because I am. I’m keeping it. I’m keeping it small. But Mighty this month. I’m so grateful to you, to all of you for booking and sharing and tuning in. Because of you, I get to do the work that I love, that feels fulfilling to me and that really, truly makes me come alive. So thank you, thank you, thank you.
0:06:40 Tansy Rodgers: And I will also say before we dive into this conversation, I just, I need to share the other piece that is lighting me up. I’m so excited. I am going to be on Friday, on Friday, May 2nd, I’m going to be at a women’s retreat in Ocean City, New Jersey and getting the honor of offering energy, healing and crystal work to a circle of incredible women. I’m feeling so, I’m feeling so expanded by that. I’m feeling honored to be part of such a sacred space where this transformation and this deep connection and heart led expansion really gets to unfold.
0:07:18 Tansy Rodgers: I can already feel the magic that’s going to be happening throughout that room. I’m just, I’m just grateful. And so I will probably be bringing more feedback and more, more information from that and just letting you know. And definitely if that’s something that excites you or interests you, I know that the practitioner who is leading it will be doing this in the future. So I can definitely share that information and give you some insights on how it went. So.
0:07:50 Tansy Rodgers: All right, we are going to get into this conversation with Michael McAdams, allow you to dive into the wisdom and the words that he wants to bring forward today and share the connection to spirit. Learning how to share that connection to spirit a little bit easier, a little bit clearer, a little bit more aligned. Let’s dive in.
0:08:18 B: Welcome to the Energy Fix. Michael, it’s so great to have you here today.
0:08:22 Michael McAdams: Well, thank you, Tansy. Thank you for having me as a guest.
0:08:26 B: You know, before we hit record, we had a great little conversation and I got to know a little bit about you and I can’t wait for you to really dive in and open all that up on the show today as well. But before we do, I love for the listeners to really know you and where you’re at right now at this point in your life and what is driving you. So is there a word or a phrase that you feel that you’re embodying at this season, this point in your life?
0:08:56 Michael McAdams: These messages and teachings that are in the book An Angel Told Me so were dictated directly from spirit teachers, which are the same thing as angels dictated word for word from the other side. And one of the messages that was received for me said, blessed is he who remains Always in understanding of his calling. And that, along with when the student is ready, a teacher will appear, has been the driving force in my life. Being a sincere seeker of truth, that vibration that you put out, being a seeker, will attract to you people who will suggest a book, an event, a movie, a speaker.
0:09:40 Michael McAdams: And it just, it’s a path that we walk. And I feel that what I’m doing, what you’re doing is really just shining a light on that path for others who also want to know.
0:09:55 B: So when you get questioned about your belief system, the work that you do, where you’re at spiritually, this, this sense of, of what you just talked about, what do you do to bring yourself back on track or how do you stay focused, to keep moving forward?
0:10:14 Michael McAdams: Well, it’s kind of, it’s an ongoing process where you’re never really separated from your own spirit teachers, spirit guides. I was brought up with a foundation of faith, church based, Bible based. My mother was an extremely, extremely religious daily reader of her Bible. My grandmother was a Pentecostal preacher. My uncle was a fiery Pentecostal pastor. And having that foundation of faith, you, you know, you’re, you’re comfortable reaching out.
0:10:43 Michael McAdams: You know, most people with a foundation of faith would reach out in prayer, but the nice thing about having a foundation is that you can build on that. And I’ve always been more spiritual than religious. You know, a lot of people, we know the story, but we think there has to be more. There just has to be. Turns out there is.
0:11:05 B: I have to share. This is. We just started the podcast. This is exactly what I needed to hear right now, because before we even got on today, I had a little test of my own personal spiritual faith and, and connection and got, got, got into a whole inner dialogue within myself of, you know, staying on my path and staying and doing the work that I know that I’m meant to do, that I’ve been called to do.
0:11:34 B: And, and this came out of a conversation that was brought into my hemisphere. And so I love that we started immediately with this message because this has been heavy on my heart and this was exactly what I needed to hear. Is just continuing with that trust that you are on the right path?
0:11:57 Michael McAdams: No, it’s amazing to me and I think it’s just meant to be. I talk to a lot of people each day. You talk to customer service, you know, different people that you’ll talk to. And I always try and share this information. I’ll tell them you sound intelligent. Do you like to read? Oh, yeah. And then I share information about the book and my website. And after we talk for a little while, they’ll say, you know, I think I was meant to take your call today.
0:12:24 Michael McAdams: You don’t know how much I needed this. And then they’ll proceed to tell me an incident or something that’s going on in their life. And, and they’re saying, you know, and I tell them, I said, you never know who’s going to walk through your door. And they were meant to take that call and I was meant to share that information. And that’s what you do with your, with your listeners and viewers of your podcast, those that when the student is ready, a teacher will appear.
0:12:49 Michael McAdams: And there you are.
0:12:52 B: And I think that’s so important. Let’s just, let’s just highlight that, Michael, that at any given moment, the person you’re talking to, the book that you’re reading, the song that you’re listening to, whatever you’re engaging in, may be exactly the message that you need to hear to really uplift you and bring you either onto or deeper ingrain you into your calling.
0:13:17 Michael McAdams: That’s true. That’s true. And I believe our own spirit teachers, spirit guides, angels, if that’s your perspective, know what we need and they will direct and lead someone to come into your life, you know, come across your path. There are no coincidences. You know, we’re meant to see and, and talk to and interact with those that will help us on our way.
0:13:43 B: Yeah, well, you’ve already mentioned that you grew up in a household that was very religious and that was your original background, more faith based. So let’s talk a little bit about your journey. Let’s talk about this rich family heritage that you’ve had in this personal exploration. Is there a defining moment early in your life that really helped to set you onto this path of seeking spiritual truth and to bring you into what you’re doing now?
0:14:15 Michael McAdams: Well, even when I was young, I had questions. I mean, my uncle, I said, was a fiery Pentecostal hostile pastor. My mother played piano for some of the church services and long before these huge mega churches where thousands of people would show up. This church that he pastored just north of Cincinnati in Middletown, Ohio, Full Gospel Tabernacle. And this was a fairly good sized church. Nothing, nothing big.
0:14:43 Michael McAdams: But they would routinely have 12 and 1300 people show up for a Sunday service. They would post the attendance and we were always sitting within the first two or three rows and listening to my uncle who was, you know, old time religion. I just had questions. I just, I just didn’t Believe some of the things that I was hearing. It wasn’t disrespectful, but it just didn’t seem right. And so throughout my life as I was growing up, and I spent two years in the army in Germany and it was interesting at the headquarters that I was stationed at, third highest headquarters in Europe, soldiers would rotate in from time to time on temporary duty.
0:15:27 Michael McAdams: They were classified as tdy. And I tell people we are TDY on this planet. This is just temporary duty. Were temporarily assigned in these physical bodies for whatever it is we’re supposed to learn in this lifetime. So as I continued to seek, I was led to events, readers, movies, books. I eventually ended up. I did psychic readings. I had a table to group in Cincinnati called Psychic World for about a year and a half.
0:15:59 Michael McAdams: And I would get messages for people. I did what they call psychometry, and that’s being able to hold rings, watches, keys, anything that carries a person’s vibration. And I had a legal tablet and they would sit down at my table. I didn’t really even, you know, pump them for information. I just asked their first name and they would give me something to hold and I would relax my mind and just start to get a message. Sometimes page, page and a half.
0:16:25 Michael McAdams: When it, when it got done, it stopped. And I would read it to them. Sometimes they would cry. And it was more confirmation as to what they were going through rather than actual prophecy. And from there you just keep going, you just continue. And like I said, doors would open because of that vibration you put out. As a seeker, you’re led on a path and if that’s where you want to continue to go, that’s where it goes.
0:16:53 B: How did your family respond to your shift in your belief system and the work that you are doing? Because I know, especially where I live, I know that that’s not necessarily always cohesive. It’s kind of oil and water in conversation. So I’m really curious what their response or reaction was.
0:17:15 Michael McAdams: Well, my, my mother was skeptical at first. I mean, she, like I said, strict interpretation of the Bible. And she had been brought up that way all of her life when she was young. And I believe she was saved when she was 13 years old. So she had such a deep, profound, you know, background and foundation of faith. But as I would share some of this information, various books that I had read, the Urantia book, are you familiar with that?
0:17:46 B: I’m not, no.
0:17:47 Michael McAdams: That’s interesting. It’s a link posted on my website, Spiritspeaks.com we could talk about that later. But I would share information and. And it didn’t really conflict with what she had been taught, but she would come back and say, well, the Bible says this or the Bible says that. And eventually, as I was getting involved with these psychic readings and some of the other things, she questioned what I was doing.
0:18:12 Michael McAdams: And I asked her, I said, do you think you could have an open mind? And she said, yes, she said, I could have an open mind. And from there, she ended up going to one of these sessions with this group in Cincinnati. And she met the lady, really nice lady, who. Who directed the group. And she just eventually, you know, just started mixing the two, which didn’t really disrespect her faith or. Or go against her faith.
0:18:42 Michael McAdams: And she had always read my mom, even when she was young, she had been spoken to by what she felt were angels, spirit teachers. And she said that she would be doing dishes in the kitchen when. When myself and my sister were young. And she would receive these teachings in her mind. And she’s not. You know, she’s just, wow, this is really good stuff. But she wasn’t writing it down. And eventually she got to the point where she was led in these dedicated sessions to receive messages and teachings dictated directly from spirit teachers she had received and thought before.
0:19:18 Michael McAdams: And I actually have a message that she received in thought that we’ll share here shortly that she felt was confirmation she should put these messages and teachings in a book. She had been praying about it. So she eventually decided that, you know, she had an open mind. And these messages and teachings that she received, dictated from spirit teachers, are the deepest and most profound teachings I’ve ever read. And I’ve been involved in spiritual material for 30 years.
0:19:51 B: What a gift to have had both sides of the fence and to have that openness from your mom. It almost makes me a little emotional as you were talking about it, because I feel for you as a child growing up and then becoming an adult and being able to see both sides of the perspective and to pull together what feels, what is truth for you is, wow. It just really helps to shape that true faith that can help to support you in this human experience.
0:20:22 B: That’s amazing.
0:20:24 Michael McAdams: Well, there, you know, there’s so. Just so many people, they talk about the lack of interest in organized religion. A lot of young people are drifting away from that. Not because they don’t have a foundation of faith that they don’t want to believe, but they want to know more. And I just recently read a post, and it said, I don’t want to just Believe I want to know. And there are a lot of people that feel that way. We know the story.
0:20:49 Michael McAdams: We have a foundation of faith. We’ve had a foundation of faith for 2000 years. And people really just want to know, and they’re ready to accept information and teachings. And for people with a foundation of faith, they’re re. They read and learn and about angels, archangels, guardian angels, people more spiritual nature, who read metaphysical material. They read and learn about spirit guides, spirit teachers, master teachers.
0:21:18 Michael McAdams: These are the exact same beings just viewed from a different perspective.
0:21:23 B: And that’s something that I always try to. To speak of when I have these conversation is it’s all the same thing. We’re just using the terms that resonate with ourselves and with our own path or journey that we’re on. So thinking about that, Michael, you’ve talked a few times now about spirit teachers. So for those who may not know what that is or they’re not familiar with this concept, could you explain what spirit teachers are and how they might differ from what many people understand?
0:21:59 B: Just as angels, they’re the same thing.
0:22:03 Michael McAdams: Spirit teachers are angels. Again, just viewed from a different perspective. One religious, one spiritual. They are true celestial beings that exist on the other side of this physical plane in a spiritual realm. And I believe the spiritual realm is just as vast, almost incomprehensibly vast, as this physical plane that we live on. We sit out here, third rock from the sun, which was a good show, third rock from the sun on the Earth, out here on the outer edge of the Milky Way galaxy. Milky Way is our home galaxy, our point of origin. If you’ve seen Stargate and the Milky way galaxy is 2,000 light years across.
0:22:48 Michael McAdams: That’s 186,000 miles a second times 2,000 years. Our closest galaxy to us is Andromeda. That’s 20 light years away, thanks to NASA and Elon Musk and the Hubble telescope and the James Webb telescope. The James Webb telescope has photographed galaxies 7,000 light years away. I mean, the physical plane is huge. The spiritual realm is just as vast, just as huge. Some would think that to be heaven, but I think it’s so much more than just a place called heaven.
0:23:26 Michael McAdams: And we are separated by that spiritual realm, by a veil, a vibration, a frequency. We don’t really know what the medium is that separates us from the spiritual realm. But these bodies that we write that we ride around, and I tell people, I said there is no death, it’s just graduation. We never really die. We ride around in these bodies. The way we ride around in our cars. And once our physical bodies give out, either through age, illness or an accident, I believe that we cross over.
0:24:02 Michael McAdams: We may go to an evaluation center to decide how we handled our life, how we treated people, what we needed to learn that we didn’t learn. And I tell people, I say, look at the children born to Bill Gates and Steven Spielberg. They’ll want for nothing. Granted, they’ll have their challenges, but that kind of wealth and connection makes all the difference in the world. And then you have people born to alcoholic fathers, drug addicted mothers, born to just abusive parents. And you can be born anywhere on this planet. China, North Korea, Iran, Iraq.
0:24:38 Michael McAdams: And I believe that we’re assigned to a certain set of parents in a certain social station for whatever it is we’re supposed to learn in this lifetime. And if you’re open to that, then you’re open to reincarnation.
0:24:54 B: And so these spirit teachers, your mother, William. Yeah, William Wilma Jean Jones, had this really profound influence on your spiritual journey and learning that she had this, this connection, this beautiful connection with these spirit teachers. How did she first really discover, Was that the first time, that moment when she was in the kitchen, or was it something that she first noticed that she was able to connect to these spirit teachers? And what impact did this specifically have on you and the way that you started to connect with them?
0:25:32 Michael McAdams: Well, like I said, she had been spoken to pretty much all of her life. She was extremely intuitive. She was told things. And she would, she would. Because Christians, especially Pentecostal, they have a close relationship with the Holy Spirit. And she would always say, one of her favorite expressions when she would be told something was going to happen or something would come true that she’d been spoken about.
0:25:56 Michael McAdams: She would say, thank you, spirit, and always acknowledge that their presence and information was given. And I tell people that, that these spirit teachers, angels, again, if that’s your preference, spirit teachers, their joy is in our recognition of their existence. And if we just choose to recognize them, accept the thoughts that come into our mind. And people say, well, how do you know that an incoming thought is coming from a positive source?
0:26:24 Michael McAdams: And I said, well, you have to establish an aura of protection in your mind and recognize the difference between an incoming thought and a thought that you think it has a subtle difference. But as this journey continued, I was really the one that, that directed my mom into the spiritual side of things. I had, had always been involved in this material. I, you know, I wanted to know and one book led to another and I would go to psychic shows And.
0:26:54 Michael McAdams: And just various speakers and events and that sort of thing. But once she was able to realize that she had this. I mean, she always knew she had the gift, but she had received in thought, like I said, most. Most all of her life. And there was a time when she was just working around the kitchen one day and these words started to come into her mind. She knew it was incoming. She picked up pen and paper. She had beautiful handwriting.
0:27:24 Michael McAdams: And she took this message down that she felt was confirmation. She should put these messages and teachings in a book. May I share this message with you and your audience?
0:27:36 B: Yes, please.
0:27:38 Michael McAdams: So this is what she received. Emptiness is part of fulfillment. Let your resources fill the void left so the distinction of your purpose can be found. Expression is always self explanatory. Therefore, look inside and anchor all your beliefs beside those still waters that will take away your troubled view and renew your strength to recapture that which was lost but is now found to be adequate to pursue the course set before you.
0:28:09 Michael McAdams: And as you reconcile your being to represent those qualities that have been left intact, God will see to it that although circumstances have been trying, to say the least, your weariness will disappear as clouds once removed, allow the sun to shine to dispel the gloom and darkness that has pervaded your countenance. And as once described before, a token of this presence will be deposited to your account and books recorded in his name.
0:28:42 B: That is beautiful. And I’m curious if you can help the listener understand when. For example, if you’re. If this came through for your. Your mom. When this came through for your mom, how can one indicate that it is spirit teachers speaking to them and not their ego or their own voice? You said it’s a subtle difference. But are there some telltale signs to help that person? Say this message is a channel or a dictation versus this was merely my ego speaking.
0:29:21 Michael McAdams: Well, people know that. Who talks like that? No one talks like.
0:29:26 B: Okay, that’s true.
0:29:27 Michael McAdams: I don’t talk like that. And like I said, I have received messages. These messages and teachings that she received dictated from the spirit teachers. They are that deep and that profound. But I tell people, I say, each of us has our own thought system. The thought system is made up of everything that we read, experience, think about. And if you establish an aura of protection and then open your mind that. Let no thoughts, ideas or information be made known to my mind that does not come from God or his direct representatives, that is your protection.
0:30:05 Michael McAdams: And any negative thoughts that may happen to slip through, you can simply disregard. If you pay Attention to your thoughts. Now, some people don’t. They’re just, you know, just random bouncing off the walls inside their mind. And they don’t really pay attention to what they think or realize the control that they have over their own thought system. So, you know, people, the Bible says, test the spirit.
0:30:32 Michael McAdams: And these spirit teachers, they don’t mind taking a quiz. So test them with little things. You know, people believe they have a parking spot angel. And they will ask when they’re going somewhere for a parking spot to be made available. And you probably have malls about where you live. Christmas time, you, you have to go over to the mall. You don’t want to. You dread it. You know it’s going to be packed.
0:30:57 Michael McAdams: But you pull into the mall and you’re on the road that’s running parallel to the mall and you think, I’ll take a left here. I’m just looking for a parking space. And a thought comes into your mind and it says, go up two more aisles and make a left. You’re obedient. What have you got to lose? So you go up two more aisles and make a left. Now you’re driving toward them all. No spots, no spots, no spots, no spots.
0:31:20 Michael McAdams: You get almost to the end of the aisle, three cars back, a car backs out, and there’s your spot. How did they know and where did that information come from? So it’s kind of a confidence building exercise. And once you had that confidence. My dad had retired in Bradenton, Florida. He had a small place down there that he would go over the wintertime. And I would drive down from Ohio, 12, 13 hours straight through by myself.
0:31:51 Michael McAdams: A lot of times I would have radio turned off, not thinking about anything. And I’m driving through Georgia. It’s a five and a half hour state speed limit, 70. I had cruise set on 80. They’ll give you 10. They may not give you 11, but they’ll give you 10. And a thought came into my mind and it said I’d slow down if I had, if I were you. Glanced in the rearview mirror, I didn’t see anything. Shut cruise off on the steering wheel, let the car coast down to about 72.
0:32:18 Michael McAdams: Topped a little rise on the freeway. There sat a Georgia state highway patrol. Now, whether or not he would have pulled out after me at 80, I said, but they see you tap the brakes that you’re paying attention, you know, you’re not swerving around, you’re in the right hand lane. So when I got past the, the out of sight, I ran cruise back up to 80. And I said out loud in the car, thank you, Spirit, because that’s what my mother would say. And I knew that I had been given the information that, you know, that I could accept and reject.
0:32:51 Michael McAdams: And the other thing is that we have that pesky little gift called free will. We can accept or reject any advice, guidance, direction, or support that we’re given. And when we do reject it, because they know what we need and they’re looking out for us, we do so at our own peril.
0:33:09 Tansy Rodgers: When you’re trying to hear from Spirit, when you’re meditating, connecting or tuning into the whispers that guide you, your environment matters. And not just the physical clutter, but what’s actually flowing, floating invisibly in your space. Mold and mycotoxins are some of the sneakiest disruptors of energy weighing down your body, fogging your mind, clouding your intuitive channel without you even realizing it happens in a snap.
0:33:38 Tansy Rodgers: That’s why I love Super Stratum. It’s a powerful plant based solution that clears out mold, spores and toxins from the air, the walls, the surfaces, giving you a cleaner, lighter, energetic field to really tune into your highest messages. Because sometimes when you can’t hear your guides clearly, it’s not your intuition that’s broken, it’s the space that needs clearing. If your body’s been feeling heavy, your mind foggy, or maybe your spirit just feeling disconnected, trust that nudge and check out superstratum.com
0:34:16 Tansy Rodgers: and feel the difference in your space and your soul. If you head down to the Show Notes and click the link for Super Stratum, it will take you right to their website so that you can get your hands on exactly what you need in order to clear your space and open up your channel.
0:34:37 B: Oh, that’s really helpful. You know, it’s. As you were talking, I kept thinking when you said, well, who really talks like that? That was the first thing you said. And I know that there’s many times when things come in for me, I know that it’s definitely spirit. When they’re using terms like oh dear one, I would never say that. You know, that’s just not something that comes through my mouth, you know, so. So I love, I love being, I love that advice of being very understanding, that if it seems very un categoristic of you and who you are and how you verbalize or speak, that that’s a big telltale sign.
0:35:16 Michael McAdams: The language that they use, the phrasing, the, the teachings that they use. When my mother was led to sit down in these dedicated Sessions, she had set up an electric typewriter in her kitchen, and she would be led in her mind, we have a message for you. And she would receive a message for her addressed to her by name. And her spirit teachers would move in. And then she would receive a message to me in the same session addressed to me. And my spirit teachers would move in, but she would put a sheet of paper in the typewriter, drop down five lines and dent five spaces, just like you were going to do a letter.
0:35:55 Michael McAdams: And she would say a prayer, ask for protection, because you are opening your mind. And she would see three or four words just float into her mind and hang there. They would not go away until she typed them. Once she type those three or four words, they would just fade away and three or four more would show up. That’s how she got these messages. Full page, many times, single space type with no paragraphs, but they do provide punctuation.
0:36:24 Michael McAdams: And these spirit teachers in these messages repeatedly refer to themselves in first person. We feel, we believe, we advise. Our view encompasses more than your view can comprehend. One line in a message said, we hear the spirit cries above the words you speak. We don’t talk like that.
0:36:47 B: Yeah. And so when this started to come in and your, your mother took this information and she dictated it and she began to connect on a regular basis and to have these sessions, what did she do with that information? Where did she take it?
0:37:05 Michael McAdams: Well, I mean, she was receiving messages weekly. Sometimes one day she received three messages in one day. And she just continued, she would make a copy for me. So I had all this information because the message that in this session, one of the messages was always for me. And on my website, Spiritspeaks.com there’s tabs at the top. There’s a television interview that my mother gave in Cincinnati and posted on that interview, she’s the pretty lady in white on the left. You can scroll down and watch. That was a message from volume two, which is not out yet. I’m looking for a new publisher to do a revised edition of volume one in the next two volumes.
0:37:51 Michael McAdams: And this was the message. This was the only time in a session where she was led to sit down and receive two different spirit teachers moved in in the same session, gave two different messages and signed two different names. And it was obvious that the second teacher was a different teacher than first because the whole cadence and phrasing of the message is different. But this first teacher’s message was little more than a long paragraph.
0:38:18 Michael McAdams: But the next to the last line is the line that will make you sit up and take notice. May I share this with you and your audience?
0:38:25 B: Yes, please.
0:38:27 Michael McAdams: There is a resurrection period through which man must travel in order to come into the realm of things godlike. You are to consume and digest all that is given here. As this comes from one highly qualified to meet the needs of this generation. You are not the sole property of yourselves. God still holds the everlasting command over your being, and in him must one take refuge. You are to be considered as one who has been stripped of all belongings and left to die by the wayside.
0:38:57 Michael McAdams: In this manner, are you then open to any help that would be forthcoming. You are by your very nature ones who would depend on your own intellect to carry you through. However, by giving of your soul into the hands of God, do you prosper and develop more freely into that which denies the outcome of some situations, knowing full well that it is the hand of God leading and directing you so that you may arise victorious in the end.
0:39:26 Michael McAdams: There is never a time when you will be without the Father nor his ever loving approaches to see that you follow the path that directs you homeward. Take note that we say homeward. As your heavenly Father so resides in that vast insurmountable environment of time and space, so shall ye abide in joint communication with him by the grace with which he covers you and by your ability to accept this grace and use it for your own development.
0:39:55 Michael McAdams: There are others here who wish to make themselves known to you. So I will step aside for this time. My love and devotion follows you as you trod onward, but ever faithful to your goal. That message was signed your loving guide. Now my question, that next to the last line, there are others here who wish to make themselves known to you. My question is, who are the others and where is here? What do you mean there are others here? Where are you in relation to us on this physical plane.
0:40:31 B: And what have you come up with? Have you had any insights to that?
0:40:37 Michael McAdams: Well, they’re in, they, they, they come from the spiritual realm. Again, that’s on the other side of this physical plane. But there’s two way communication between this physical plane and the spiritual realm. You know Christians, people with the foundation of faith, they’ll reach out to the spiritual realm. In prayer, we reach out in thought and then we receive those in for that information that we talked about earlier.
0:41:03 Michael McAdams: Guidance, direction, support that will help us along our way. And we are born. I believe that we all have the innate ability that we’re born with to communicate with the spiritual realm. And this spiritual realm Again, is separated only by a veil, a vibration, a frequency. And we are simply riding around in these physical bodies for the lessons, the choices and decisions that we’re supposed to make in this physical existence.
0:41:35 B: And so. Oh, go. No, go ahead, go ahead.
0:41:38 Michael McAdams: That spirit teacher moved out. Another spirit teacher moved in and gave a page and a half a deep, profound teaching. But the last paragraph of that spirit teachers, that second teacher’s message, these spirit, these messages always end with a deep, profound last sentence or a profound last paragraph. And this was the last paragraph of this second teacher’s message. You are not a sheep herded here and there, but you are likened into the lamb that is cared for, individually nourished and loved until the full and total development allows it to be master of itself.
0:42:17 Michael McAdams: So is man so kept and denied only those things that would not in the long run nourish his spirit. God is all wise and loving in his dispensations. We are not to judge the workings of our Father, nor are we to judge each other. Work always to improve your own beings, for in the end time there lies your soul with all the nourishment that you have given it, totally dependent upon the outcome of your intentions.
0:42:46 Michael McAdams: That message was signed your loving spiritual teacher.
0:42:54 B: You mentioned just a little bit ago. You talked the, the last, the last sentence of the first part was that your loving guide. Is that who that was? Your loving guy?
0:43:04 Michael McAdams: Is that what they first teacher’s message, Your loving guide?
0:43:08 B: Your loving guide? Yes.
0:43:09 Michael McAdams: And the, the next to the last line was that I will, you know, there are others here who wish to make themselves known to you, so I will step aside for this time. And then he personally says, my love and devotion follows you as you trot onward, but ever faithful to your goal.
0:43:26 B: Yes. And so knowing that there are these others you just talked about, there are these others that are here that are maybe separated by this veil. And knowing that we all have been born with this innate connection, how does one really develop that deeper so that they connect with these others that are here that we’re being guided to connect with and to develop our spirit deeper?
0:43:55 Michael McAdams: Well, for all of the decisions that we make on a daily basis, some small, some may be life changing, we can decide on our own what we want to do, or we can ask for help and then we can decide if we want to accept the help. So again, we can we allow, if we are open and establish an aura of protection to keep any negative negativity, negative thoughts away. And depending upon the outcome of our intentions, you know, depending on Your intentions, what you decide to do each day, how you treat people, how you handle the situations that come into your life.
0:44:34 Michael McAdams: Being connected with spirit teachers and, and accepting this information doesn’t mean you’re not still going to have car trouble. Doesn’t mean you’re not still going to have family issues, work issues. But it just helps you know that you’re not alone, you’re connected. And that as you walk your chosen path, you’re not, you know, this information is given to help you along your way. That just came into my mind.
0:45:06 B: I think that one of the things that you just said that is so profound, easy, it’s an easy concept, but profound is that it gives you the peace of mind that you’re not alone.
0:45:17 Michael McAdams: Comforting. Yes, comforting. And for anybody, whether, whether you’re alone in life or whether you have somebody that you’re sharing life with, it is just such an advantage to, and you want to incorporate that. If you have a foundation of faith, build on that. Don’t be afraid of any of this. No. And you can continue to, to, to be religious. But then, you know, at the, in the end time, you know, where I parted company with organized religion was a belief in heaven and hell.
0:45:56 Michael McAdams: And I always had a problem with both. Are, you know, my, I knew a lady one time that had a, had a son that was constantly getting in trouble. She, the money they had spent for fines and bail and attorneys. It was just a rough time. And she was brought up Baptist, extremely religious, carried a Bible around with her every day and she just knew she was going to heaven. But she knew a lot of the things that I was involved in and she just bound to determine that hell was a real place to go.
0:46:31 Michael McAdams: And I asked her one time, I said is there any thing that your son could do, anything at all that would cause you not to want to give him another chance? And she just put her head down and said no. And I said what makes you think God loves us any less? Do you really believe that we’re going to be sentenced to all eternity, you know, for damnation and punishment with no chance for reprieve, no chance for a do over because we were stupid, because we had bad parents, chose bad friends, made bad choices and decisions?
0:47:04 Michael McAdams: Or do you think we’re going to be given another chance?
0:47:10 B: What did she say?
0:47:14 Michael McAdams: She didn’t say anything. I mean there wasn’t anything she could say. She, she just knew that that’s how I felt. And like I said, we’re, we’re, we’re all led in this particular Lifetime. And I mean, look at the lives that people are living on this planet today. We’re not talking about any of the other worlds, you know, in our galaxy or across the universe, society, civilizations that we exist right now that we have no idea are there.
0:47:43 Michael McAdams: We could be born anywhere. You know, Earth may be a punishment planet for all we know, but look at the lives that some people are living. You know, alcoholics, drug addicted, homeless people living on the street, people tortured, living in China, North Korea. What if that is their hell in this lifetime? Now, it only lasts for a lifetime. And then they may go to an evaluation center and say, see, see how you treated people?
0:48:11 Michael McAdams: See what you did to people. And that same thing happens to them. Not to say that, that bad things, you know, happen to good people for a reason. You know, there are just accidents. Some people were in the wrong place at the wrong time. But I be, I believe that existence is by design that were that it’s not just random and that we are here for a reason. Born to a certain set of parents in a certain social station.
0:48:39 Michael McAdams: And there is a movie, actually, I recommend two movies for people involved in this material or who want to know more. I don’t know if you’ve heard of them. The first one is called Defending your life. That has Albert Brooks and Meryl Streep in it. Highly recommend that the second one is called Always, and that has Richard Dreyfuss and Holly Hunter. So defending your life and always. And that will help people understand or at least gain a perspective possibly as to why we’re here and what comes next.
0:49:21 B: And so I just had this conversation as you were talking, I was thinking this conversation I had this morning. And it was all about. It was. It was all about essentially awakening and your soul taking you to where you need to be at this point in life. And as I was speaking, I was saying that awakening is really just a concept. It doesn’t matter if your soul is saying, I need faith, I need Christianity, I need Judaism, I need spirituality. I.
0:49:51 B: Whatever it is, it’s all about allowing your soul to expand into knowing that there is something greater and higher. And then you choosing, you choosing what is truth for you and what resonates for you at this time. Because whatever that is is exactly what your soul is needing at this moment. It’s where you are supposed to be. And so as you talked about this whole concept of heaven and hell, I really appreciate that because that was actually the point for me that shifted my awakening into spirituality work and into the work that I’m doing now because it just did not feel like that truth for me.
0:50:31 B: And it’s what pulled me away from the upbringing that I had that was more Christianity based. And so I think that it’s always important, no matter what you’ve chosen as your truth, where you’re being led. I think what’s is that you are reevaluating saying, but does this feel like truth to me? Is this. Is this what I’m being guided towards? Is this what the spirit teachers want me to connect to?
0:51:02 Michael McAdams: I agree, I agree. And it’s all about the journey. Life is a journey with choices and decisions that were put in a position to make. And that was the other question that I had about heaven. If you go to heaven, I mean, to think that in this short blink of an eye, existence, this physical existence, that we then deserve to go to a place called heaven for all eternity, forever and ever. To do what? Where everything is provided, everything is taken care of, and the human spirit requires choices and decisions.
0:51:37 Michael McAdams: We need to be put in a position to decide and choose. And those choices and decisions guide the path of our life in this lifetime. Now, we may eventually work up to being promoted, but even on the other side, there are levels, spirit guides, spirit teachers, master teachers, and even much higher teachers than that leading up to our heavenly Father. And one of the messages that my mother received, these spirit teachers even referenced higher teachers.
0:52:10 Michael McAdams: And they said, we received this information from higher teachers. We in turn pass it along to you. So they’re acknowledging that there are higher teachers above them that are sharing information regarding our lives and what we’re involved in. I think that’s an amazing concept. And that’s the difference between the physical plane and the spiritual realm is those levels of higher teachers that. That go, as you know, far beyond our imagination.
0:52:44 B: Yeah. Wow. Did you have something. I’m sorry, did you have something more that you wanted to add to that?
0:52:53 Michael McAdams: No, I’m good.
0:52:54 B: Okay. Okay. Sorry. Just look like you wanted to say something before we. I want to talk about specifically how for somebody who’s just starting on this journey, how they can learn to connect deeper into their spirit teachers, into this wisdom that’s being passed down. But I want to take one step back just a little bit. You know, before we jumped onto this recording, you had mentioned that this information that your mom.
0:53:22 B: That your mom got, that you’ve gotten to create the book, has been dictated. Not channeled, not automatic writing, but dictated. So can you talk just a little bit about what the difference is between channeling versus automatic writing? Writing versus dictation. And if there’s any other ways that this information comes in.
0:53:44 Michael McAdams: Well, like I said, when my mother was led to sit down in these dedicated sessions, she had set up the electric typewriter and actually saw words. But she had been spoken to and thought before. Channeling is where people drop down in level, almost into a trance state. And they will speak in the, in the voice. A lot of times it’s even a different voice that a spirit teacher will, will channel through them.
0:54:10 Michael McAdams: And they will either give a reading for someone or they will write it down. Automatic writing is where someone will again drop down in level, relax their mind with pen and paper in hand and they will, their arm will start to write and they will automatically start writing down these words. But I tell people that these messages and teachings, and an angel told me so. Even though the messages were given specifically for my mother. And to me it’s like they’re woven with a universal thread.
0:54:43 Michael McAdams: And everyone who has read these messages have said, well, this sounds like what I’m dealing with. This sounds like they’re talking to me. And I tell people, I say, when you get the book, read each message once as it was given for my mother and given for me. Then read that same message again as if, as if it’s being presented for you and see what hits. And it’s amazing what hits. It’s almost a little spooky.
0:55:09 Michael McAdams: And I tell people that this information is, is shared and acknowledged and given directly from spirit teachers from the other side. Now my grandmother, like I said, was extremely religious, pastored a small Pentecostal church. And when she would receive sermons, dictated to her mind in thought that she would write down and preach in church, and she would even receive verses to songs that she would write and put to music.
0:55:39 Michael McAdams: And in the book in the photo gallery, there are six verses to a song that she received lying in a hospital in Columbus, Ohio. She had been taken by ambulance from Dayton to Columbus. She, they didn’t think she was going to make it. And she was in a room by herself praying. And these words started to come into her mind. She had pencil and paper beside her, her bed on a nightstand, and she wrote this down. My sister, who’s a flight attendant with Delta based out of Cincinnati, still has the original paper that she wrote these words down.
0:56:15 Michael McAdams: And reading those six verses will almost bring you to tears. Now my, again, my grandmother had said that God had spoken to her heart and given her this information. That’s the perspective that someone with a church based, Bible based foundation is Going to interpret anything that they receive. People who are more spiritual in nature, who recognize they have spirit guides and spirit teachers. They know, you know, where the information is coming from.
0:56:44 Michael McAdams: Still a high source, still a protected source, but something that you can be open to.
0:56:51 Tansy Rodgers: Ever notice that when you’re trying to tap into intuition or spiritual guidance, your mind really gets jumpy, your body gets restless, or you just can’t seem to quiet the noise? Oh, my gosh. I know exactly what that means. That happens to me all the time. But what I’m learning is that it’s not always about me. It’s not always you. Sometimes it’s the invisible frequencies that are flooding our world.
0:57:19 Tansy Rodgers: The WI fi, the Bluetooth, the tech, it surrounds us everywhere. We can’t get away from it. Unless you go out into the deep, deep fields of nature. Electromagnetic fields or emfs are real and they can scramble the sensitive, energetic sacred signals that you’re trying to listen for. That’s why I love EMF rocks. They’re not technology, they’re pure earth medicine. Crystalline structures that ground, protect and stabilize your energy field so that your intuitive gifts can come through super clean, super clear.
0:57:58 Tansy Rodgers: You can keep them around your home, near your bed, even, even by your meditation space, because when the world gets noisy, your soul still deserves to hear itself. If you jump down into the show notes, you can find the link for EMF rocks. Protect your peace, my friend. Protect your gifts. Your energy is so sacred and there are tools out there to help make it easier.
0:58:28 B: For someone who’s just starting their journey. What is some practical advice for how they can connect in, but also that practical advice to make sure that they are connecting to the highest love energy, the highest love guides that are trying to bring them messages.
0:58:47 Michael McAdams: I think anybody who’s willing to be open to, to this path, willing to be open to receiving this information which they’ve probably already received all their lives, they weren’t really sure where coming from. An affirmation. Affirmations are outstanding for protection because you’re protecting your mind, you’re protecting any, anything that may be incoming into your thought system. So find various affirmations that, that you agree with, that you feel will offer you the protection that you’re looking for.
0:59:21 Michael McAdams: If you, if you have a foundation to start with, you’re ahead of the game because you can simply say a prayer asking for protection. Now, when my, when I do a number of these interviews and they say, well, your grandmother received, your mother received, they said, do you receive? And I said, yes. I said, I’ve Been spoken to most all of my life. And when I was first looking for a publisher, I was on a number of different publisher websites.
0:59:48 Michael McAdams: One of the websites asked questions about your work. One of the questions was, what makes your material unique? Why would anyone want to read this great question? And I’m sitting. I was sitting where I’m sitting right now at my computer. I didn’t really even ask for an answer. I just relaxed my mind and an answer started to be dictated to my mind. It was 12 lines long and I was just taking it down.
1:00:14 Michael McAdams: And I have read this answer to a number of hosts on the air and more than one has teared up. May I share this answer with you and your audience?
1:00:22 B: Yes, please.
1:00:24 Michael McAdams: So the question was, what makes your material unique? And this is the answer that I was given. The uniqueness of any material is in the manner in which it touches the soul. An open and searching mind pulls the soul and the body in which it inhabits. Onward and upward with hunger and determination in its quest for spiritual nourishment. Ever mindful that the path upon which we walk is the path toward God.
1:00:51 Michael McAdams: Lives lived, experiences endured, goals accomplished, and loved ones lost are all encounters upon that path. Strive always for the highest possible communication with our Heavenly Father. Believe in yourself as the Father within you is guiding, leading, directing, and comforting you upon this journey that we call life. Blessings be upon you as you walk your chosen pathway. That was not me, but I appreciated it.
1:01:27 B: And I love that because it just ties in. It is exactly what we’ve been talking about that it’s about your journey and whatever it is or wherever you choose to be on that journey, and as you’re walking it, you are going to be guided and taken care of.
1:01:48 Michael McAdams: That’s true. That’s true. And you asked about how people would. Would be able to understand their own gifts and be able to tune into their own spirit teachers. And the best way would be to read messages and teachings that have been received. If I might share my own in, an angel told me so, you know, take a look and see what’s being received by others. You know, pick and choose wisely. You know, make sure that what you’re, what you’re choosing is of the highest level, highest caliber, highest quality.
1:02:24 Michael McAdams: And then incorporate those teachings and that information into your thought system. And again, people don’t realize the control over they have, that they have over their own thought system. It’s like a little mini solar system within your mind and you have avenues and information that comes and goes. You can accept or reject Any advice, guidance, direction, support that you’re given and just do so with, with the best possible intentions.
1:02:57 Michael McAdams: Again, you know, the end, in the end time, there lies your soul, with all the nourishment that you have given it, totally dependent upon the outcome of your intentions.
1:03:08 B: And I would love to talk deeper about your book and exactly this, because one of the things that I have the utmost respect for and the ones that touch closest to my soul is when I am reading teachings and writings that are specifically pulling in various spiritual texts and really spanning across to bring so much wisdom. Because like, we’ve already talked about these spiritual texts, texts that are out there, like the Bible, for example, there’s so much wisdom that is embedded in these writings. And when we can pull and reference that and bring that into the wisdom that we are channeling, dictating automatic writing, what, however, is coming in for you?
1:03:49 B: I feel that there’s so. There’s so much deep perspective to connect to, to help you on your way. So let’s talk about that. Let’s talk about how you bring that information in, how you connect to it. You’re referencing and, and what has really driven you as you move forward in creating, writing your book.
1:04:12 Michael McAdams: Well, I’m just the messenger. I didn’t really write the book. The book itself and this, these three volumes that will be published. The book itself is the collection of messages and teachings that my mother received. And these messages given for her and given for me, but seem to be so applicable to everyone that reads it. And I tell people, I said, when you read these messages, know that you’re holding in your hand proof, real proof of the existence of a spiritual realm on the other side of this physical plane.
1:04:45 Michael McAdams: Again, we’ve been taught, you know, that we should have faith. And we’ve had faith for 2000 years. And so many people now want to know. They really want to know. And this is the advantage that this information gives, is that allows people to know, to see these messages and teachings dictated directly from spirit teachers, many of them signed with the name of the spirit teacher, presenting the message, my mother.
1:05:14 Michael McAdams: I mean, aside from your loving guide and your loving spiritual teacher, my mother received a message that was signed your spiritual counterpart. I have received messages to me in the book that were signed your spirit brothers, your spirit light. These are real celestial beings from the other side of this physical plane, reaching out to my mother in these dedicated sessions and that these messages and teachings seem to apply to all who are reading them.
1:05:49 B: I don’t want to just believe. I want to know you said that line earlier. And that is, that is wisdom right there. People don’t want to just believe anymore. They want to know, they want, they want to have that deeper connection. They don’t want to just be told what to believe. So you just said with your book, you know, we now have proof. What do you say to skeptics who want to know more but aren’t quite sure if they actually believe that you are connecting into something higher?
1:06:26 Michael McAdams: Well, again, test the spirit. Take a look at what you believe and see if this information anyway contradicts what it is that you believe. These message, these spirit teachers in these messages repeatedly reference God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit in these messages. One message that I offer that I actually will, will send to you when we, when we get off the air, gave a prayer, offered a prayer in this, in a message.
1:06:59 Michael McAdams: And my mother had always wanted to go to the Holy Land to see the, the sites where Jesus was. And like I said, she was extremely religious and she had given a message. That message where the first the two spirit teachers moved in in the same session was given in April, I think of 1977. And then she had connected with a church group in Cincinnati and had the opportunity to take a 10 day tour over to Egypt, Jerusalem, all of the holy sites.
1:07:34 Michael McAdams: And it was November when she, after she got back, she had shots, passports, that sort of thing she had to get. And it was November before she was able to sit down and get another message. And these spirit teachers in these, in that message referenced the time that had been lost while she was gone. I mean they are with us in real time. And they, they said the time lost, it is regrettable. But then they, and this was, that was a three page message.
1:08:04 Michael McAdams: As these messages and teachings went on in volumes two and three, it’s like higher teachers start moving in, giving even deeper, more profound teachings and the messages become longer, deeper. They aren’t necessarily addressed to Wilma or myself, they are more general teachings, but they will reference us in the messages. So the proof that people can have or the information that they can add to whatever they already know and it’s up to them how far they want to take it.
1:08:39 B: I keep thinking through this whole conversation how refreshing this is, that it is that everything you speak of is just really about pulling together where you’re at, honoring, meeting where you’re at, and then adding onto that and bringing in the full spectrum. It’s not that this is wrong or this is right or you need to do this or you need to do that. It is Honoring where you are and pulling it all together because it can all live beautifully, harmoniously together.
1:09:15 Michael McAdams: That’s true. That’s true. And these Spirit teachers, like I said, they may be our own, but they. They are available for everyone. And as they, I said, they refer to themselves in first person repeatedly. And there was a message, I think this is in volume two. And there was a message that my mother was receiving. Long message, full page. She was on the second page of a three page message. And as she was receiving these teachings, these messages, she stopped right in the middle of the message and she asked, who is the I and the we? Because they repeated to refer to themselves as we, our and us.
1:09:58 Michael McAdams: Sometimes an I will make himself known and that’ll make you sit up and take notice. And she asked about the I and the we being the source of this information. And they congratulated her for asking. And then they gave a definition. I have not read this for a while, but may I found this while we were sitting. May I share this with you? Because I think I was led to share this. So who is the I and the we that’s being the source of this information?
1:10:26 Michael McAdams: This was their answer. There was a delegate of spiritual beings set aside to deliver help to those who are driven by a strong desire to be guided without interference from outside influences and believe and who believe God really does reveal himself when souls reach out by a sincere desire to deliver teachings as well as establish themselves in their beliefs that include directed treatment of God’s holy realm.
1:10:55 Michael McAdams: That’s just one sentence where rebukes are sometimes expressed by those who conform to his image in some instances, but neglects to put the use of measure of faith. God has given to each one so that they might exercise this innate ability. God uses other means to instruct so as not to deter their progress. Let your mind be assured that God has always allowed your use of his knowledge to keep your soul intact. And although trouble comes, he has rescued you in a manner that builds your faith rather than discourages it.
1:11:31 Michael McAdams: I is used when a serious point is being expressed to get your attention, for you must be arrested at times when doubt enters and interferes with this delivery. I represents the Godhead of Christ and the Holy Spirit. Arrangements are made to counteract any influence that would try to distract you from your purpose, which is to serve. In this manner, we congratulate you on your perseverance in insisting that an explanation be given to differentiate between these expressions.
1:12:04 Michael McAdams: We are governed by the Godhead of Christ, which is the ultimate source whereby you can petition The Father for inner guidance that cannot come except by his command. We are those chosen to lead by means of his admonitions so that you are resurrected and brought forward in a manner that will decipher that which God gives and by means of His Spirit will convey to you his never ending will to see that all that is accomplished within your being is an expression of his love and devotion to those who are truly his own and will seek his wisdom and judgments through obtained instructions that can only be delivered by those whom he has chosen to do so.
1:12:48 Michael McAdams: Therefore, we are givers of the Word, chosen by his compassionate nature so that you will not be led in darkness, but the light of his revelation will guide you against perils that seemingly are ever present but cannot flourish in the darkness. By their origins of their origins, by our very nature, we are God’s creation. And Wilma made a note. She said she didn’t want to be prone to use her own definition so many angels as, namely angels.
1:13:20 Michael McAdams: She wanted to go with what was being given. Concentrate your efforts now with full assurance and God’s blessings that you are not led astray by the actions of your commitment to learn not only about God’s goodness, but portray that which will bring you together with His Holy Spirit that speaks loud and clear to those who have an ear to hear. We do not conjure that which by its own admission is in retrospect a device used to control and overcome that which God has created for a plan.
1:13:52 Michael McAdams: For we are to expel all that falls under our jurisdiction and to deliver those from evil, those who by choice are enacting the will of the Father with the true understanding that he raises up a generation that will not falter in spite of affliction. I haven’t read that for a long time, but it just decided that it was time and for them to acknowledge who they are, how they have assembled and why they are here and what they are here for.
1:14:26 Michael McAdams: I mean, you don’t get any closer connection to the other side than that.
1:14:31 B: As you were reading, I. All I kept thinking about was, you know, when they use the term we, it’s really. Well, like they said, it’s the knowledge of God’s source that we are innately connected to that we need to know that, that that is the information available to all of us. But it almost felt like when there was a highlight, like, you know, when you are writing up a document and you want to highlight or you want to really bold something and you take that and you, you hit control B, you want that to stand out. Right.
1:15:05 B: It almost felt like when I came in, that was God Source poking his head in and saying, listen up. This is important. This is my bold statement. That’s what it felt like. It. It felt. It felt like it was the highlight of the conversation that was being driven home.
1:15:29 Michael McAdams: I agree. And there are a number of messages where an eye will move in. I will make myself known. Therefore, I advise otherwise. A lot of the messages are given in plural. We feel, we believe, we advise. Again, our view encompasses more than your view can comprehend. But many of the messages, even though the teachings are given in plural, a lot of the messages are signed with a singular name. Your loving spiritual teacher, your loving spirit guide.
1:15:59 Michael McAdams: And it almost seems like there is a group that are combining, collaborating to give this message, present this message and teaching as it was being taken down on that day. But yet an individual teacher will sign his name. It sounds like a he. It feels like a he will sign his name to the message as a signature. And I. I advise you that, like I said, she had received other signatures. She even saw a script and she tried to copy it, and it was an lz.
1:16:36 Michael McAdams: The initials LZ was a signature to one of the messages. And in a later message from that same teacher, it was signed L. Zebedish. So, you know, it was a name given. Again, we’re talking spiritual teachers, spirit teachers from the other side of this physical plane.
1:16:55 B: Yeah, well, now, that was a powerful message, the we I indication that your mother received. I’m curious about you, Michael. Has there been any particularly powerful or transformative message that you received from your spirit teachers that has helped to significantly shift or shape some of your own writings and teachings?
1:17:20 Michael McAdams: Well, in the book, as these messages and teachings continued, I. I just did a recent interview for someone who had read the book, and he said, well, your spirit teachers really have high plans for you. And I just. Yeah, they do. And it. It’s. They know what we’re going through. And these messages and teaching, again, they seem to apply to everyone who reads them. Now, my mother went through a divorce. I’ve gone through a divorce.
1:17:55 Michael McAdams: Not everyone is going to have those same life experiences. But again, we talked about just the comforting nature of these teachings, the strength. And I feel that I’m here for a reason, and that reason is to share this information with other sincere seekers of truth who are on a path. And again, you do the same thing as I do. You’re sharing of this information. It’s like shining a light on a path in the darkness.
1:18:22 Michael McAdams: Some people are walking in darkness. And this is their light that they can use to direct their path and have confidence to deal with everything that they’re dealing with. For people with a foundation of faith, church based, Bible based, who believe there must be more, there has to be more, this information will take them that next step that will open doors for them and allow them to see that there is information available that is truth.
1:18:53 Michael McAdams: And again, the Bible says, ask and ye shall receive. Seek and you shall find. Knock and the door shall be opened. Each one of those three statements requires a positive action on our part. If we want to know, we have to ask to receive. If we don’t ask, if we just ride through life taking what comes and we’re not willing to take the next step to ask, why should we be allowed to receive if we’re not seeking, if we’re not wanting to know more, not wanting to know the truth, how will we, how will we find the answers that we’re seeking?
1:19:32 Michael McAdams: And if we’re not willing to knock on the door, knock and the door shall be opened. And to you, if we’re not willing to knock, take that action. If we’re willing to just sit back and say, well gee, there’s nothing I can do, I guess I have to take what comes, then we will wallow in our own self pity and say, well, gee, I don’t know why my life had to turn out this way when all this time we had the choice, the control, the decisions that we could make to change our path.
1:20:09 B: One of the most common questions I get asked all the time, and this goes with something you just said, you said all you need to do is ask, you need to seek. One of the most common questions I get asked all the time is, well, but I’ve been asking, I’ve been seeking. I don’t feel that I’m getting any answers. So in your experience, what are some of the most common challenges or barriers that maybe people face that don’t allow them to feel like they’re getting the information that they need to be able to connect to their spirit. Teachers and do you have any practical advice of how to overcome those obstacles?
1:20:49 Michael McAdams: I think it would be within their own minds, what they’re willing to accept, what they’re willing to consider and what they’re, what they’re saying, well, no, I don’t want to go there. I don’t believe in that. If you can have an open mind and if you can find the information again that’s directed, that opens doors for you, then follow that. If you’re not willing to follow new information. If you’re not willing to walk through a door that is opened right in front of you, then you won’t go any farther.
1:21:24 Michael McAdams: And, and you can. You can feel that you’re trying, but just don’t give up. Refuse to give up and go where the path leads you. Follow this information. I’ve never read anything like this. I’ve been involved in spiritual material for 30 years, and I have never read any information like this anywhere. It’s the. It’s the deepest and most profound teachings that I’ve ever read.
1:21:55 B: And I think you have a very, very valid point right there. Because I know that on those moments where I feel like I don’t want to hear the answer or I feel closed down, I. It is those exact moments that I feel like I’m completely alone and that my. My spirit team, my spirit teachers, they are not talking to me. I feel cut off. I feel like I’m not getting the guidance I need. But yeah, you’re right.
1:22:24 B: It really comes back to just staying open. And even. Just like. Like Hansel and Gretel following the. The breadcrumb trail all the way back to their cottage, right? Like you need to. To just take one step at a time and, and, and stay open to what does come through, even if it is the smallest little piece of guidance.
1:22:47 Michael McAdams: I agree. I agree. And to make that connection with your own spirit teachers. Now, there’s other information besides this I recommend. Obviously, I recommend an angel told me so because these messages and teachings are so personal and applicable to what people are going through. But on my website, spiritspeaks.com if you scroll down to the middle of the home page, there’s a painting that I have at home. And there are five hidden messages in that painting.
1:23:18 Michael McAdams: So you can take a journey through the painting, find the hidden messages. The last message is the message that my mother received and thought that she felt was confirmation she should put these messages and teachings in a book. There’s a great links page which is a link to two even more advanced books. One is a book on Edgar Cayce. Are you familiar with Edgar Cayce?
1:23:40 B: Oh, yeah. Yeah.
1:23:41 Michael McAdams: And I think I. I list a book that I believe is the definitive biography on Edgar Cayce by Sidney Kirkpatrick. And Edgar Cayce actually lived here in Dayton, Ohio for a year and a half. He had a photography studio. He was a photographer by trade and had a photographer studio on first street in downtown Dayton. And then there’s a book called the Urantia Book. Have you ever Heard of that?
1:24:07 B: Yes.
1:24:08 Michael McAdams: The Urantia book is, is really interesting. It’s more advanced. It’s my light reading, 2107 pages and you don’t read it like a novel. It’s a series of papers numbered, entitled, that was written, transmitted through an individual in 1935. First published in 1955. Urantia is their name for the earth. So it’s really the earth book been translated into 16 languages and they never identify the guy that the man that this was transmitted through.
1:24:43 Michael McAdams: But the, the infer. There’s only four parts to the book, but the fourth part is a 650 page section on Jesus that sounds like they were standing beside him with a microphone for 33 years. The detail is amazing and it agrees with the bible. Bible about 98%. Little twists on stories and stuff, but not enough to get your pants in a bunch. And it’s just, it’s an amazing body of material. Talks about various levels, realms above the realms that we even know about.
1:25:21 Michael McAdams: And it’s just an interesting. It’s. It’s like it’s more advanced material and you don’t read it like a novel. But when I got the book, I actually had a psychic who was head of that group that I told you about. She said, here you are. She said, you’re ready for this. And I glanced through it, you know, flipped through some of the pages and I. But the, the section, the part that interested me the most was the section on the life and teachings of Jesus.
1:25:53 Michael McAdams: And I actually have six or seven papers and page numbers that I recommend for new readers. So if any of your listeners would want to contact me on my website, Spiritspeaks.com I have a contact page. I would be happy to share that information with them to be just kind of a guide to allow them to decide if they think that’s something that, that’s worth investigating for them. But the material is out there. You talked about how do people know, how do they incorporate this, how do they use this as a guide to direct their path and direct their journey.
1:26:30 Michael McAdams: And again, these messages and teachings that my mother received that seem to be so personal, so applicable to what people are going through, I believe that is going to really make a difference in their journey and how they approach life itself.
1:26:47 B: And definitely an angel told me so I think is a great place to start, you know, your book or. And I’m assuming the prince that you were talking about is that your spiritual parchment print prints that you have on your website, right?
1:27:02 Michael McAdams: Those spiritual partridge prints. Those are actually A set of my own writings. Well, two of them. I wrote one. The third one was a message dictated to my mind and thought as a personal message to me. And that. That was. That was just something else. I. I used to own a satellite dish company. I did satellite dishes for a living. And I had come home late one evening, went upstairs to change clothes, and these words greatness and spirit came into my mind.
1:27:34 Michael McAdams: I knew it was incoming. I opened a drawer, pulled out a tablet and a pen, and I started writing these words down. And it was coming so fast, I was scribbling to keep up. And I even had trouble the next day typing it up. Now that you’re asking about that. This was a personal message that I was. That was given for me. But I feel like it applies to all of us who are in this work. Would you like to hear this message?
1:28:01 B: Of course.
1:28:03 Michael McAdams: All right. So, like I said, the words greatness and spirit came into my mind. And this is the message that I was given. Greatness in spirit shall touch the lives of many. You will come into contact with hearts and lives will be touched and changed by your presence. Enable yourself by the will of your being to respect and respond to changes in individuals as you become aware of the true potential of your spirit in the eyes of God.
1:28:33 Michael McAdams: Thou hast made thyself worthy of all the riches and gifts of spirit that shall be forthcoming unto you. Be as you will in relationship to the Holy Spirit that inhabits and dwells within thy being at this time. Look always to the future with anticipation and gladness, for thou hast made thyself a living receptacle for the spirit of God, and all good things shall come to thee. Now, that’s a pretty good personal message to receive.
1:29:06 Michael McAdams: But again, I think that applies to all of us who are in this work or want to expand their journey, which is what you and I are trying to do.
1:29:17 B: Do you feel that that message was what gave you maybe courage or confidence to do the work that you’re doing now, to move. To move away from the satellite business and to step into this realm?
1:29:30 Michael McAdams: Well, I had. All I had been doing both. I had actually published the first volume of the book. Book. While I was still involved with the satellite business. Now, this was after my mom had passed away. Like I said, she wasn’t really sure because of the personal nature of these messages that, you know, she wanted to put them in a book. But based on what I knew and what I had read, I said, this is just too powerful.
1:29:56 Michael McAdams: This is too deep, too profound not to Share so that people can see what, what can be received and then incorporate these teachings into their own experiences in their life and their path. So I was really doing both at the same time. But again, you know, from the time I was in my early 20s, I have always been involved, invested in this material. And it’s just been a progression. One book, one movie, one speaker, one event.
1:30:26 Michael McAdams: And this is what I do now. I’m trying to connect with a spiritual speakers Bureau to be able to do presentations and make do speaking engagements and share this information with the widest possible audience.
1:30:42 B: And, you know, everything that you’re sharing and your book. I was going to say this earlier when we were talking about when somebody feels like they can’t quite connect in, right. All of this teaching and the speaking that you are pushing forward to doing, the book that you just, that you wrote, an angel told me so the spiritual parchment prints all of the books that you’ve recommended. As we were talking today, all the information that you brought forward that your mom had dictated just by listening, reading, engaging, connecting into this, I think automatically turns us, dials us in a little bit closer to being able to connect in, on, on our own level, with our own spirit teachers, but also to then be able to receive the information as well.
1:31:38 Michael McAdams: Oh, I agree. And to know that this information is available, well, if, if Michael can do it, if Tansy can do it, if Wilma can do it, then I can do it. There isn’t any, anything stopping anyone from connecting with their own spirit teachers. All they need to know is that it’s safe, that it is comforting and it’s real. And if, if you can realize that you have, you know, people with a foundation of faith, use that as your foundation and guide to investigate even deeper and higher teachings.
1:32:19 Michael McAdams: And for people who may not believe anything at all, well, gee, I didn’t know any of this. Look at what’s being received and then incorporate these messages and teachings into your own thought system and apply these teachings. And it. Again, it’s just amazing how much of this information in these messages received by my mother, for her and for me seem to apply to everyone who reads them. So I’m just happy to be able to share and be put in a position where I can share this information and reach out to people and say, we did it, you can do it too.
1:33:02 B: This has been an incredible conversation. I’ll tell you, Michael, this was exactly the conversation that I needed to have right now. This was wonderful. And so soul connecting. I want everybody to get your hand, get their Hands onto your book. So let’s talk about that. Where can people find your book? What are you excited about with your book? And, you know, what can they expect to gain from reading it?
1:33:34 Michael McAdams: Well, the book itself. It’s available on my website, Spiritspeaks.com it’s available through Barnes and Noble System. Any Barnes and Noble in the country can order it. My national distributor is Ingram. So any neighborhood bookstore, any bookstore across the country can order it. It’s also available on Amazon. And my goal, like I said, I’m looking for a new publisher. This first volume was published in 2017, and I’ve been told that I need to do a revised edition to.
1:34:06 Michael McAdams: For a more current release since it’s been, you know, nine years, eight years. So I am looking for a new publisher to do a revised edition of volume one. The volume two, the manuscript is complete. All the messages are typed in. And I weave a narrative as to what was going on in my mother’s life and in my life between each of these messages that were dictated from spirit teachers. And then I’m working on volume three, which gets even deeper and more profound.
1:34:43 Michael McAdams: Again, these messages and teachings, these dedicated sessions, she started receiving these in in August of 1977, and they lasted until the end of the year 2000. And my mom had developed some. Some medical issues and she wasn’t able to continue to do this anymore. It would take three to four hours, you know, to receive a message for her and a message for me. And it just became hard on her. So. But to this, this depth and quality of this information and the sheer volume of these messages and teachings that were dictated directly from spirit teachers is something that lets people know that it’s real and they can do it themselves and incorporate that.
1:35:32 Michael McAdams: Hopefully to be able to incorporate their own spirit teachers messages and guidance. And that’s the whole point. That’s why I’m doing this.
1:35:45 B: This has been fantastic. Thank you so much for the work that you’re doing and for bringing these writings to the public. Where can people find you outside of your website? Where can people find you? And do you have any last words for the listeners today?
1:36:03 Michael McAdams: Well, the website is. Is the best way to contact me. I have a contact page on my website. If anyone had any questions or feedback, recommendations, they can contact me on my website. I do presentations and book signings in. In Lilydale, N.Y. we talked about Lilydale, the world’s oldest and largest community of spirit mediums and readers. I’ve done book signings and presentation presentations at Casadaga down in Florida, which is a sister community to Lilydale.
1:36:35 Michael McAdams: But I continue to do these interviews. I’m wanting to connect with the Spiritual Speakers Bureau and any, any events or anything that I’d be able to appear at, I would certainly post on the website. But I really thank you for the opportunity to share this information. And again, it’s. It makes you feel good when you talk to people that say, you don’t know how much I needed this. You don’t know how much I. I needed to share, you know, to have this information.
1:37:05 Michael McAdams: And I’m glad that I could share it with you.
1:37:09 B: Yes. Thank you. All of the links will be down in the show notes, so make sure you jump on down there and get your hands onto the book. Get into Michael’s world. I can feel the love and the authenticity and the connection just reverberating off of you. So it’s a really good feeling. Thank you.
1:37:36 Michael McAdams: Thank you, Tansy. Thank you very much.
1:37:40 Tansy Rodgers: Maybe today’s message was exactly what you’ve been needing. Maybe it was a nudge to keep trusting even when it’s silent. Maybe it was a whisper from your guides telling you that you’re closer than you think. You were born intuitive. You were born connected. You were born to hear the love that always is surrounding you. This week, I invite you to lean in and ask yourself these questions. Where am I? Still doubting my own inner knowing?
1:38:10 Tansy Rodgers: How can I create more space to listen rather than hustle for answers? What would shift if I trusted that spirit speaks to me even when it’s quiet? And if this episode sparked something in you, share it with someone you love. And if you haven’t already already, it would mean the world to me if you subscribed, left a five star review, or just sent me a message about what landed for you. It helps ripple this energy out to more people who are craving it.
1:38:44 Tansy Rodgers: It helps ripple the energy more than you can imagine. And until next time, keep spreading that beautiful energy you were born to share.
