1-800-Dial-God.                                
The mission statement of Religion-Outside-The-Box is to empower people to find and be with (the) God (of their understanding).

Many people tell me that they aren’t certain how to begin – that getting in touch with God seems difficult or hard.

In this regard, you can buy my book How To Find Out What (the) God (of your understanding) Wants From You.

And, I have three other, wonderful opportunities for you.

1. Write

Until recently, the Heaven Request Form was only available at seminary libraries. But thanks to the Internet, that form is now available for download. Should you care to give your feedback about the running of the universe, please click here to download the pdf.

2. Phone

Simply enter the phone number at which you would like to be contacted and God or one of the archangels will get in touch with your immediately. (Really.)

(If you do not see a graphic into which you can
enter your phone number, CLICK HERE.)

When you click, you’ll immediately receive a call from (225) 522-4116 – apparently there is some angelic field office in Louisiana – just answer the phone!

3. E-mail

Write an e-mail!

What could be easier.

Just click here.

I highly encourage you as a spiritual-religious exercise to think about what you would do if you were going to…

With love,


Rabbi Brian

The 77% Weekly


The 77% Weekly: The Religion-Outside-The-Box Newsletterhelps people find and be with (the) God (of their understanding) 40 out of 52 weeks a year.

Why 77%?
Two reasons:
1) 40/52 = 0.76923 and it is sent every Monday except the last of each month.
2) In school 77% was a passing grade and ROTB wants to remind you that life isn’t graded, it’s pass/fail.

Religion-Outside-The-Box is a donation-supported,
non-denominational, internet-based, 501c3-tax exempt religious congregation.

The Delay

January 14, 2026

2026 issue #03 — The Delay I’m in my buddy David’s car. He’s driving me from my mom’s apartment in NYC to Newark, NJ, where I’m going to catch a plane back home to Portland. David and I have been friends for fifty years. Amazing. My phone dings. I look at it. Nothing important. Just an alert from United. *

Lifeboats. Summer. Bridges. Helpers.

January 10, 2026

Lifeboats. Summer. Bridges. Helpers. The rapid succession of a toddler-drunk-on-power messes is overwhelming. I’m exhausted by the sheer number of (what seem to me) reprehensible acts. My country is sickening me. federal agents shooting at (and killing) civilians actions against immigrants, federal workers, the environment, reproductive rights invading a sovereign nation and abducting its leader pardoning people who committed reprehensible

A Friday Night Tradition

December 14, 2025

I’m not misusing the word religiously to mean fanatically, as in the improper use of it in the sentence: She exercises religiously. I use the word religiously as it should be used—with more positive connotations—as in calmly, forgivingly, without rushing. So,
