Nick shares how early struggles with dyslexia and high school rebellion eventually gave way to a voracious love for reading, leading him to study philosophy, John Searle's "Chinese Room" thought experiment, and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) at Western Michigan University. Following a painful divorce and season of grief, Nick began questioning strict materialist reductionism through the writings of Jordan Peterson, Jonathan Haidt, and C.S. Lewis. After visiting an Anglican church during COVID and being moved by the liturgy and sacraments, Nick experienced a profound spiritual conversion. Together, Paul and Nick discuss the evolution of human consciousness, behavioral psychology, the Anglican bishop's invitation for Nick to pursue ordained ministry, and the challenge of pastoring a generation navigating the collapse of modern managerial assumptions.    What is the TLC?

n this conversation, Pastor Paul Vander Klay sits down with Beau (Bo) Erickson, a precision rifle machinist and doctoral student exploring cultural theology and the philosophy of Owen Barfield . Beau shares his journey from a mountain childhood in Casper, Wyoming, and a formative missionary assignment in civil-war-era Albania to serving in the U.S. Marine Corps, where military hardship and loss triggered a deep sense of nihilism and spiritual disillusionment . After years working in corporate megachurches and precision machining, Beau encountered the work of Michael Heiser and "The Little Corner" (TLC), eventually discovering Owen Barfield's Saving the Appearances and its framework on the evolution of human consciousness . Together, Paul and Beau examine how Barfield shaped the imaginations of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, the danger of converting living faith into literalistic idols, and how local churches can cultivate participatory faith through story and faithful presence . What is the TLC?
