We end Glass Onion's 6^th year with the start of another multi-part series, the first 4-parter in the history of the podcast.

Using (mostly) the John Lennon parts from Steve Turner's excellent 2006 book 'The Gospel According To The Beatles', we trace our hero's religious, spiritual and philosophical journey through its many twists and turns in his intense four-decade ride through life. Antony also comments on his own journey in these areas, some of which overlaps with that of John Lennon and The Beatles.

Part 1 looks at the first two chapters of Steve's book, focusing a lot on the 'Bigger Than Jesus' controversy of 1966. This is preceded by an attempt to lay some groundwork for this series by defining 'religion' and 'spirituality' and pondering what the differences (if any) between them are.

There are multiple audio clips at the start to help us along, and you will find many useful web links in the show notes below

Enjoy! And see you in January 2025 for part 2.

Best wishes from Antony
