★☆★THE PANEL★☆★

Curtis Childs is the director of OffTheLeftEye at the Swedenborg Foundation. While obtaining his degree in communication studies from Oakland University, Curtis experienced an internal battle with depression that led him to question God and his lifelong interest in Swedenborgian theology. After a period of intense suffering, he recovered from his depression with the help of modern medicine, therapy, and a return to the spiritually uplifting messages he found in Swedenborg’s writings. Now, Curtis is applying his education and desire to help others find peace through Swedenborg’s insights by producing and hosting this weekly webcast.

Chelsea Odhner is a production manager and scriptwriter for offTheLeftEye. A lifelong Swedenborgian, Chelsea's interest in Swedenborg's spiritual work intensified in her early twenties when she realized she wanted to make conscious changes in her life and behaviors. When paired with her study of yoga practice and philosophy, Chelsea found Swedenborg’s worldview connected all the spokes of different faiths and philosophical perspectives that she values. Initially interested in pursuing a career in integrative medicine, her passion for poetry, writing, and music led her to focus on serving the spiritual side of health and well-being.

Karin Childs is a scriptwriter and online moderator for offTheLeftEye. Her spiritual growth is largely informed by a lifelong Swedenborgian education. While raising five children with her husband, Jon, she applied her love of the Bible and Swedenborg's writings to volunteer work, creating Sunday school programs and church pageants. It was Swedenborg's works that Karin turned to for solace after the devastating death of their oldest daughter. For 17 years, she and Jon ran a small Swedenborgian publishing company to help others dealing with loss and grief, and wrote three novels herself. Now, Karin puts her compassion into action through the work of the Swedenborg Foundation.

Chris Dunn is a community manager for offTheLeftEye. Chris spent much of his life steeped in various faith traditions and cultures. Growing up, he experienced both Judaism and Protestantism within his family, and as a young adult was influenced by the spiritual direction of Catholicism. After Chris began his professional career he was led to Swedenborg, and found his writings to be revolutionary—so much so that he felt called to enter seminary to align his heart and mind more deeply with Swedenborg's work. During his time at Bryn Athyn College, Chris was asked to help support offTheLeftEye as a YouTube moderator and he found himself instantly at home providing spiritual support for the online community. It was this experience that led Chris to decide to transition from his third year of seminary to a full-time role with offTheLeftEye. Chris now enjoys leveraging his technical skills to help create meaningful pathways for spirituality to flourish in the world.
