A Life’s Journey with The Urantia Book (Charles Montgomery)

Charles Montgomery is our special guest this week. Charles was introduced to The Urantia Book (TUB) in 1969 by Kermit Anderson. He is a past member of the Fellowship's General Council. He has created several Urantia-inspired posters and a You-Tube show, "Ascent to Paradise." At the 2011 conference in Salt Lake City, Charles coordinated a "Happening," with 8 musicians, 4 dancers, 9 painters and 5 readers of excerpts from TUB, all of whom worked on a 16-foot canvas which was torn into 64 numbered paintings and given away.

Charles has a BA from Harvard in Architectural Sciences and an MPA from USC. He has been a City Planner (33 years in Los Angeles), College Instructor ("The Growth and Development of Cities"), Renaissance Faire Gamesman ("Come hither, my lord, and slay this dragon!") and Property Investor (47 units near Sedona). He and his wife, Pam Tyler, are currently managing a retreat center in Taos, New Mexico. They have built a large stone labyrinth and a three-acre prayer path.

Charles enjoys studying the superlatives in the Urantia Book. Pop quiz: What is our first duty, our highest privilege, and potentially our most exquisite pleasure? Hint: The answer starts with W.
