Sean Illing talks with neuroscientist Gregory Berns, author of The Self Delusion. Berns claims that the idea of a unified, persistent self is a kind of illusion, and that we are better understood as multiple selves at different moments in time, tied together by a story — which is what we call our identity. Sean and Greg also talk about whether the brain is a computer, how perception works, the limits of thinking too much about thinking, and what psychedelics can do to disrupt and change the stories we tell about ourselves. This episode originally aired in November of 2022.

No matter how dark your past may be, God's light shines brighter.No wound is too deep.No trauma is too severe.And no life is beyond the reach of Jesus Christ.In this powerful and deeply moving conversation, John Martin sits down with Jahan Berns to share an incredible testimony of survival, healing, and God's redeeming power.Born and raised in Uganda during a time of civil war and political unrest, Jahan's childhood was marked by profound loss and hardship. Her father, a military leader, was assassinated when she was only six years old, leaving her family devastated and vulnerable.Already living in the middle of a war-torn nation, Jahan suddenly found herself navigating grief, uncertainty, and fear at an age when most children are simply learning about life.Raised in a Muslim household, Jahan watched as her mother struggled with overwhelming depression after her father's death. Eventually, searching for answers and relief, her mother became involved in occult practices, opening doors that brought even deeper darkness into their lives.Jahan shares how those years were marked by spiritual oppression, trauma, abuse, and emotional pain. By the time she reached her teenage years, she was carrying wounds that seemed impossible to overcome.But God had another plan.While attending a boarding school founded by Christian missionaries, Jahan began hearing the Gospel for the first time. She encountered believers whose lives reflected genuine love, compassion, and faith.More importantly, she encountered Jesus.At just fifteen years old, Jahan experienced a powerful transformation and surrendered her life to Christ. That decision launched a lifelong journey of healing, freedom, and discovering her true identity in God.As she grew in her faith, Jahan overcame intense spiritual battles, endured persecution for becoming a Christian, and developed a deep passion for helping others find the same freedom she had found through Christ.Her journey eventually led her to law school, where she met her husband, and later to the United States, where she became an attorney with a prestigious law firm. By every worldly standard, she had achieved success.But once again, God had a different calling.Despite a thriving legal career, God began stirring her heart toward ministry. In an act of surrender, Jahan left behind the security and prestige of practicing law to found Triumph of Hope, a ministry dedicated to sharing the Gospel, equipping believers, and helping people find freedom from spiritual oppression.Throughout the conversation, Jahan offers profound insight into spiritual warfare, healing, and the authority believers have through Jesus Christ. She reminds listeners that while spiritual battles are real, God has not left His children defenseless.Through Christ, believers have access to:Truth through God's Word.Healing through His presence.Freedom through the power of the cross.And victory through the authority of Jesus.Jahan encourages anyone struggling with fear, depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, spiritual oppression, or hopelessness to remember this truth:Jesus is greater.No matter what you are facing today, God's power is stronger than your pain, and His love reaches deeper than your deepest wound.This conversation is a reminder to:Stay grounded in God's Word.Develop a daily prayer life.Get connected to a Bible-believing church.Surround yourself with strong Christian community.And never stop believing that God can restore what feels impossible.Your past does not define you.Your pain is not your identity.And your story is not over.What would happen if you fully trusted Jesus with the areas of your life that still need healing?Contact Jahan Berns:

Det här är berättelsen om fyra nepobabies som vände upp och ner på dansbandssverige och fick ta emot en offentlig dödsdom i direktsändning. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. – Priset går till … Popsicle!Ett stort jubel utbryter när indiebandet från Piteå klämmer sig fram mellan borden inne på Berns salonger i Stockholm. Det är slutet av februari 1993 när Popsicle sopar hem ett av Grammisgalans tyngsta priser – Årets rockgrupp. Vid ett av de där borden sitter fyra, storögda killar. Casper, Kim, Tommy och Lasseman i Arvingarna är kvällen till ära klädda i matchande kavajer i olika färger, den ena skrikigare än den andra. Grammisgalan är deras första möte med musikeliten och kvällen är så här långt en succé. Deras liveframträdande tidigare gick precis som det skulle och för bara en dryg timme sen vann även de en grammis, Årets dansband. Nu när Popsicle tar emot sitt pris, skålar killarna med sina bordskamrater – Eva Dahlgren, Lisa Nilsson och så Marie och Per från Roxette. – Jaha, vem ska de säga de väl valda orden?Ingen i Popsicle verkar vara sugen på att hålla tal, men närmast mikrofonen råkar bandets gitarrist, Fredrik Norberg, stå.– Egentligen gillar vi ju att vara elaka. Jag vet inte vad jag ska säga.Den kortsnaggade Fredrik har på sig en uppknäppt bomberjacka. Han kollar ner i golvet och letar efter orden. Med ett slugt leende lutar han sig fram mot micken igen.– Tack till oss själva och varsågod och hoppas Arvingarna dör i någon tragisk bussolycka.För mindre än ett år sen skakade Arvingarna om dansbandssverige med sitt fräcka debutalbum Coola killar och blev snabbt stjärnor på den svenska musikhimlen. Nu möter de på nära håll det förakt som legat som en skugga över dansbandsvärlden i generationer bakåt. Men vad varken de själva eller artisteliten på Grammisgalan vet är att Arvingarnas definitiva genombrott är mindre än en vecka bort.Medverkande: Kim Carlsson, Tommy Carlsson, Casper Janebrink, Lars ”Lasseman” Larsson, Lasse Holm, Thomas Deutgen, Dennis Janebrink och Elin Andersson.Programmet gjordes och programledes av Siri Hill sommaren 2026Producent Lars TruedssonExekutiv producent Anna JohannessenSlutmix Fredrik NilssonP3 Musikdokumentär produceras av Tredje Statsmakten MediaLjudklippen i programmet kommer från SVT (1993, 2019), TV5 (1993), TV4 (2019) Göteborgsposten (2020), Östersundsposten (2020) samt Youtubekanalerna Jonsson Records (2024), Leif Jansson (2024) och Melodifestivalen (2019).

When neuroscientists scanned the brains of people going along with a group, they expected to find lying. What they found instead was something far stranger. The group wasn't changing people's answers. It was changing what they actually saw. We'll get to that study in a minute. But first, I want you to remember the last time you were in a meeting, and you knew something was wrong. The numbers didn't add up. The risk was being underestimated. And someone needed to say it. Then the most senior person in the room spoke first: "I think this is exactly what we need." Heads nodded. Finance agreed. Marketing agreed. The consultant agreed. And by the time it was your turn, you heard yourself saying, "I have some minor concerns, but overall I think it's solid." You're not alone. Research shows that roughly half of employees stay silent at work rather than voice a concern. And among those who stayed quiet, 40% estimated they wasted 2 weeks or more replaying what they didn't say. Two weeks. Mentally rehearsing the point they should have made in a meeting that's already over. That silence isn't a character flaw. It's your neurology working against you. And today I'm going to show you exactly why it happens and how to stop it.  It starts with what was happening inside your head during that meeting you just remembered. Why Your Brain Surrenders to the Group Most people know about the Asch conformity experiments from the 1950s. People were asked to match line lengths, and seventy-five percent went along with answers that were obviously wrong. That result gets cited everywhere. But the more important study came fifty years later, and it revealed something the Asch experiment never could. In 2005, neuroscientist Gregory Berns at Emory University put people inside an MRI machine and ran a similar conformity task, this time with three-dimensional shape rotation. Like Asch, he planted actors who gave wrong answers. But unlike Asch, he could watch what was happening inside people's brains while the conformity was occurring. Berns expected the MRI to show activity in the prefrontal cortex, the brain's decision-making center, when people went along with wrong answers. That would mean they were knowingly lying to fit in. Just a social calculation. That's not what the scans showed. People who conformed showed no increased activity in decision-making regions. Instead, the activity showed up in the parts of the brain that handle visual and spatial perception, the occipital and parietal areas. The group wasn't changing people's answers. It was changing what they actually saw. Their brains were rewriting their experience to match the room. And the people who resisted the group? Their scans told a different story. Heightened activity in the amygdala, the brain's threat detection center. The same circuitry that fires when you encounter physical danger lit up when someone disagreed with the group. Berns put it plainly. The fear of social isolation activates the same neural machinery as the fear of genuine threats to survival. When you caved in that meeting, your neurology wasn't malfunctioning. It was doing exactly what it was designed to do. Keep you safe inside the tribe. This is why what I call mindjacking works so well. Algorithms manufacture social proof by showing you what's trending, what your friends liked, and what similar people chose. Your wiring responds the same way it does at the conference table. You're fighting your own threat-detection system every time you try to hold an independent position within a group. You can't turn off the wiring. But you can learn to catch it in the act. And that starts with one critical distinction. The First Skill: Separating Updating from Caving Sometimes the people around you know something you don't. Changing your mind in a group isn't always a surrender. Sometimes it's the smartest move in the room. The real skill is knowing which one just happened. You can test this in real time. When you feel your position shifting in a group, ask yourself three questions. First: Did someone introduce information I didn't have before? If the CFO reveals a data point that genuinely changes the calculus, updating your view isn't a weakness. It's intelligence. That's new evidence. Second: Can I articulate why I changed my mind, in specific terms? If you can say, "I shifted because of the margin data in Q3 that I hadn't seen," that's a real update. If you can only say, "I don't know, everyone seemed to think it was fine," that's capitulation. Third: Would I have reached this same conclusion alone, with the same information? This is the killer question. If the answer is no, and you only arrived at this position because others were already there, you haven't updated. You've surrendered. Getting this wrong is costly. And not just the one time. When you capitulate and call it updating, you train yourself to stop trusting your own analysis. Do it enough times, and you won't even bother preparing, because you already know you're going to defer. That's how capable people slowly become passengers in rooms where they should be driving. Capture those three questions somewhere you'll see them. They're your real-time check on whether you're being open-minded or spineless. Those questions work when you're already in the meeting and the pressure is live. But what if you could protect your thinking before the pressure even starts? The Pre-Meeting Lock-In The most important thing you can do to protect your independent thinking doesn't happen during the meeting. It happens before. I call it the Pre-Meeting Lock-In, and it takes less than two minutes. Before any meeting where a decision will be made, write down three things:  Your position  Two or three key reasons supporting it What would it take to change your mind Put it on paper. Put it in a note on your phone. Just get it out of your head and into a form you can reference. Why does this work? Because once the discussion starts, your mind is going to quietly edit your memories of what you believed. You'll start thinking, "Well, I wasn't really sure about that point anyway." Your pre-meeting notes are an anchor against that self-deception. They're a record of what you actually thought before the social pressure arrived. You want to see what happens when someone has the analysis but doesn't lock it in?  The night before the Challenger launch in January 1986, engineer Roger Boisjoly and his team at Morton Thiokol had the data. They knew the O-ring seals were dangerous in cold weather. They'd written memos. They'd run the numbers. They recommended against launching. But when NASA pushed back hard on the teleconference, Thiokol management called an off-line caucus and excluded the engineers from the room. When the call resumed, management reversed the recommendation. Boisjoly had the analysis. His managers had heard it. But under pressure from their biggest customer, the conclusion got edited in real time. Boisjoly later described it as an unethical forum driven by what he called "intense customer intimidation." He fought like hell, but the room won. That's the most extreme version of the problem. Life and death. But the mechanics are the same in every conference room. The analysis exists. The pressure arrives. And without something anchoring you to what you actually concluded, the room rewrites the story. There's a bonus effect to the Lock-In, too. When you've documented what it would take to change your mind, you've given yourself permission to be genuinely open. You're not being stubborn for the sake of it. You're saying, "Show me evidence that meets this threshold, and I'll update." That's intellectual honesty with a backbone. But you can know exactly what you think and still fail if you can't get anyone else to hear it. How to Dissent and Actually Be Heard Most dissent fails not because it's wrong, but because it's delivered badly.  Blurting out "I think this is a mistake" when the group is already aligned feels like an attack. People get defensive. Your point gets ignored, not because it lacked merit, but because your delivery threatened the group's cohesion. You triggered the same threat response in them that you've been learning to manage in yourself. Charlan Nemeth, a psychologist at UC Berkeley, has studied dissent for decades. You'd expect her research to show that dissent helps groups when the dissenter is right. When someone spots a flaw that everyone else missed. That makes intuitive sense. But that's not what she found. Nemeth discovered that when someone voices a genuine minority opinion, the entire group thinks more carefully. They consider more information, examine more alternatives, and reach better conclusions. And the group benefits even when the dissenter turns out to be wrong. Even when you're wrong, the act of dissenting makes the group smarter. Your disagreement forces everyone out of autopilot. Decades of research by Moscovici supports this. Minority voices don't just influence people in the moment. They shift perception afterward, in private, long after the meeting ends. That's the good news. The catch is in how the dissent happens. Nemeth tested what happens when dissent is assigned rather than authentic, when someone plays devil's advocate because they were told to. It doesn't produce the same effect. Groups can tell when disagreement is performative. The cognitive benefits only show up when the dissent is authentic. When someone actually believes what they're saying. That means the goal isn't just to voice disagreement. It's to voice it in a way that people can actually receive. And the hardest version of this isn't when you have a minor concern about an otherwise good plan. It's when the whole direction is wrong, and finding something to praise would be dishonest. In those moments, the move is to separate the people from the position. "I respect the work that went into this, and I know this isn't what anyone wants to hear, but I think we're solving the wrong problem." You're honoring the effort while challenging the direction. You're not attacking the tribe. You're trying to save it from a bad bet. When the stakes are lower, and you do see genuine merit, you can lead with that. "The market timing argument is strong, and I want to make sure we've stress-tested one thing before we commit." Same principle. You're working with their wiring instead of against it. Either way, your dissent has value beyond being right. Remember that. It's worth holding onto when your amygdala is screaming at you to stay quiet. Everything so far has assumed you're in a room with other people. Your amygdala can't tell the difference between a conference table and a phone screen. The Rooms You Can't See You're not just in meetings. You're in invisible rooms all day long. And most of the time, you don't even know you've walked into one. Every time you scroll past a post with ten thousand likes and think, "I guess that's the right take." Every time you read three articles with the same conclusion and stop questioning it. Every time an algorithm shows you what similar people chose, and you choose it too. Those are rooms full of nodding heads. And your amygdala responds to them the same way it responds to the conference table. Think about the last time you researched a major purchase. You probably started with some idea of what you wanted. Then you read reviews. Then you checked what was trending. Then you asked friends. By the time you decided, how much of that decision was yours? How much of it was the room? Or think about how you form opinions on topics you haven't studied deeply. You read a few articles. They mostly agree. You adopt the consensus. That feels like research. But Berns' scans tell us what's actually happening. Your brain isn't independently weighing the evidence. It's detecting a consensus and rewriting your perception to match. The same process that happens at the conference table is happening every time you open your phone. Mindjacking doesn't need to override your thinking. It just needs to make sure you never finish thinking for yourself before the crowd's answer arrives. And once it arrives, your neurology does the rest. The group doesn't just influence your answer; it shapes it. It rewrites your perception. The Lock-In works for these invisible rooms, too. Before you research a major purchase, write down what you actually want and what you're willing to pay. Before you dive into reviews and opinions, commit your criteria to paper. Before you ask friends what they think about a decision you've already analyzed, record your conclusion. Give yourself the same protection from algorithmic conformity that you'd want before walking into a boardroom. The skill isn't being contrarian. It's being first. First, to your own conclusion, before the room, any room, gets a vote. This is your challenge for the week. Think of one meeting you have coming up where a decision will be made. Before you walk in, open your notes app and type three lines. Line one: what you think. Line two: why. Line three: what would change your mind. That's it. Then sit in that meeting and watch what happens to your thinking when the room pushes back. I think you'll surprise yourself. What if the person you can't resist isn't your boss, your colleagues, or the algorithm? What if it's you? What happens when the decision you need to make threatens something deeper, when being wrong would mean something unbearable about who you are? That's where we're headed next.

In a study of 1,025 employees, 70 percent reported instances where they or others failed to speak up effectively when a peer did not pull their weight. Half wasted seven days or more avoiding crucial conversations. Forty percent estimated they wasted two weeks or more ruminating about the problem. A 2021 follow-up study by Crucial Learning (formerly VitalSmarts) of 1,100 people found the rumination figure had risen to 43 percent. The script's "roughly half" is drawn from the VitalSmarts finding that the majority of the workforce reported conversation failures, with half losing seven or more days to avoidance behaviors.

Asch, "Effects of Group Pressure upon the Modification and Distortion of Judgments," in Groups, Leadership and Men, ed. Harold Guetzkow (Pittsburgh: Carnegie Press, 1951), 177–190. The expanded report was published as Solomon E. Asch, "Studies of Independence and Conformity: I. A Minority of One Against a Unanimous Majority," Psychological Monographs: General and Applied 70, no. 9 (1956): 1–70. Asch conducted the line-judgment experiments at Swarthmore College. Participants judged which of three comparison lines matched a standard line, with confederates unanimously giving incorrect answers on critical trials. Across conditions, approximately 75 percent of participants conformed at least once, and the mean conformity rate was approximately one-third of critical trials. Group sizes varied across experiments, typically with 6–8 confederates and one real participant. https://psycnet.apa.org/record/1952-00803-001 "neuroscientist Gregory Berns at Emory University put people inside an MRI machine": Gregory S. Berns, Jonathan Chappelow, Caroline F. Zink, Giuseppe Pagnoni, Megan E. Martin-Skurski, and Jim Richards, "Neurobiological Correlates of Social Conformity and Independence During Mental Rotation," Biological Psychiatry 58, no. 3 (August 1, 2005): 245–253. doi:10.1016/j.biopsych.2005.04.012. The study used functional magnetic resonance imaging with a mental rotation task. Participants (n=32, ages 19–41) judged whether three-dimensional shapes were rotated versions of each other while four confederates provided answers. Conformity was associated with functional changes in the occipital-parietal network (visual and spatial perception regions), not the prefrontal cortex. Independence was associated with heightened activity in the right amygdala and right caudate nucleus, regions linked to emotional salience and threat detection. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15978553/ "The group wasn't changing people's answers. It was changing what they actually saw": Berns et al., "Neurobiological Correlates of Social Conformity," 245–253. The researchers isolated the specifically social element of conformity by comparing brain activation when wrong answers came from a group of people versus when they came from computers. Conformity to group-sourced wrong answers produced greater activation bilaterally in visual cortex and right intraparietal sulcus, overlapping the baseline mental rotation network. Berns interpreted this as evidence that social conformity operates at a perceptual level rather than merely at a decision-making level.

Participants who gave independent (correct) answers when the group was wrong showed significantly increased activation in the right amygdala and right caudate nucleus. The amygdala is associated with processing emotionally salient stimuli and threats. Berns described these findings as "consistent with the assumptions of social norm theory about the behavioral saliency of standing alone." The script's characterization that "the fear of social isolation activates the same neural machinery as the fear of genuine threats to survival" is an accessible paraphrase of this finding, consistent with the broader social pain literature (e.g., Eisenberger, Lieberman, & Williams, 2003), though Berns' paper does not use that exact language. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15978553/ "engineer Roger Boisjoly and his team at Morton Thiokol had the data": Roger M. Boisjoly, "Ethical Decisions — Morton Thiokol and the Space Shuttle Challenger Disaster" (paper presented at the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Annual Meeting, December 13–18, 1987). First presented as a talk at MIT in January 1987. Boisjoly, a specialist in O-ring seals and rocket joints at Morton Thiokol, documented how engineers recommended against the January 28, 1986 launch based on concerns about O-ring performance in cold temperatures. During the pre-launch teleconference, Thiokol management called an off-line caucus, excluded the engineers, and reversed the no-launch recommendation under pressure from NASA. Boisjoly described the forum as constituting "the unethical decision-making forum" driven by customer pressure. He was awarded the Prize for Scientific Freedom and Responsibility by the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Nemeth, In Defense of Troublemakers: The Power of Dissent in Life and Business (New York: Basic Books, 2018). Nemeth's research program at UC Berkeley, spanning four decades, demonstrated that exposure to minority dissent stimulates divergent thinking, broader information search, consideration of more alternatives, and higher-quality group decisions. The finding that dissent improves group performance even when the dissenter turns out to be wrong is documented across multiple studies. See also Charlan J. Nemeth, "Minority Influence Theory," IRLE Working Paper No. 218-10 (Berkeley: Institute for Research on Labor and Employment, May 2010). https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1pz676t7 "Decades of research by Moscovici": Serge Moscovici, Elisabeth Lage, and Martine Naffrechoux, "Influence of a Consistent Minority on the Responses of a Majority in a Color Perception Task," Sociometry 32, no. 4 (December 1969): 365–380. In the original experiment, participants viewed blue slides while two confederates consistently called them green. The consistent minority condition produced a shift in approximately 8 percent of majority judgments toward the minority position, and roughly one-third of participants conformed at least once. In the inconsistent minority condition, the effect was negligible (approximately 1.25 percent). The script's claim that "minority voices don't just influence people in the moment — they shift perception afterward, in private" draws on Moscovici's subsequent conversion theory and research on the delayed and private effects of minority influence, including afterimage studies showing genuine perceptual shifts. https://www.jstor.org/stable/2786541 "Nemeth tested what happens when dissent is assigned rather than authentic": Charlan J. Nemeth, Joanie B. Connell, John D. Rogers, and Keith S. Brown, "Improving Decision Making by Means of Dissent," Journal of Applied Social Psychology 31, no. 1 (2001): 48–58. doi:10.1111/j.1559-1816.2001.tb02481.x. Groups deliberated a personal injury case under three conditions: authentic dissent (a genuine minority viewpoint), assigned devil's advocate (a member told to argue the opposing side), and no dissent. Authentic dissent was superior in stimulating consideration of opposing positions, original thought, and direct attitude change. The devil's advocate condition did not produce the same cognitive benefits, suggesting that groups detect and discount performative disagreement. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1559-1816.2001.tb02481.x.

In dieser Folge des Experten-Podcasts spricht Stefan Oliver Berns, Leadership- und Veränderungsexperte, über die Überwindung von Verhaltensmustern und das Entfalten der eigenen Authentizität. Stefan erklärt, wie viele Menschen seit ihrer Kindheit angepasste Rollen übernommen haben, um Ablehnung zu vermeiden, und dadurch oft unter ihrer wahren Persönlichkeit leiden.Er zeigt praxisnah, wie Selbsterkenntnis, kleine Veränderungen im Alltag und gezielte Zielarbeit helfen, diese Muster zu durchbrechen. Dabei betont er, dass Veränderung im Kleinen beginnt – wie ein anderes Verhalten am Essplatz, ein bewusstes „Nein“ oder das Ausprobieren neuer Gewohnheiten – und sich langfristig auf das gesamte Leben auswirkt.Stefan teilt beeindruckende Beispiele aus seinen Seminaren, in denen Teilnehmer:innen Masken fallen lassen, ihre authentische Persönlichkeit entdecken und dadurch sowohl persönlich als auch beruflich freier und erfolgreicherwerden. Die Folge ist besonders wertvoll für alle, die Persönlichkeitsentwicklung, Führung, Authentizität und Selbstbewusstsein fördern möchten.https://www.derumdenker.de/ Hosted on Acast.

Live from Berns, Stockholm

Last week, my guest was Oscar Arias, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and former President of Costa Rica, who brought peace to Central America. This week, I continue to prove that Chatter That Matters has no boundaries, only journeys of those who overcome, who chase, who change their world and ours for the better. My guest is Rima Berns-McGowan, a woman who has devoted her life to making the world a better place. She has walked many paths—scholar, author, community builder, politician and then made one of the most unexpected and courageous pivots imaginable: leaving politics to become a Medium connecting those who live here with those who have departed. What ties it all together is her conviction in tikkun olam, a jewish concept meaning reapir of the world. Whether through evidence-based research, community activism, or channelling messages of love and healing from those who've passed, Rima's life is devoted to building inclusion, belonging, and hope. In this conversation, we explore: How her family's escape from apartheid South Africa shaped her identity and lifelong quest for justice. The lessons she's learned from academia, politics, and the people she's served. Why she believes our ancestors never leave us, and how as a Medium she can help bring messages from the other side that brings healing and forgiveness. What her journey teaches us about choosing good over cynicism, compassion over division, and possibility over despair. Suspend disbelief. Open your heart and listen to the many wonderful messages from Rima Berns-McGown, the Medium. Presented by RBC, because they believe in stories of human possibility.   To learn more about Rima: IG - @rimabernsm or rimabythesea.com

We lezen meer met de synagoge: Deut.3:23-7:11, Jes.40:1-26, en Hebr.12:18-2De komende 7 weken staat de vertroosting na Gods oordelen centraal. Mozes en het volk mochten de berg Horeb niet naderen of aanraken voordat zij de stem van de shofar een langgerekte hoorden geven. Maar die Stem en de verschijnselen waren zo ontzagwekkend dat zij enkel vreze en beving waren. Zij zagen dat de HEERE een verterend vuur is. Het volk verzocht de stem uit het vuur niet langer te hoeven horen.Daar ontvingen zij het eerste verbond en de verbondsvoorwaarden, de tien woorden. Gehoorzaamheid zou hen wijsheid en leven geven en het land doen beërven. Volken en hun afgoden zouden erdoor onderworpen en verdreven worden. Wanneer het volk echter zou nalaten om tegen de afgodendienaars te strijden en hun afgoden weg te doen, dan zou hun dat opbreken en doen struikelen. Allen die Baal-Peor achterna liepen hebben dat echter met de dood moeten bekopen. Je kunt de tien geboden niet ongestraft vervangen door geboden van mensen en overheden. In onze maatschappij zie je dat echter op alle fronten wel gebeuren. In Zweden heeft men onlangs zelfs het Satanisme in de wet als religie erkent. In Amerika vernielen ze de monumenten voor de tien geboden en vervangen die voor afgodsbeelden.Paulus waarschuwt in Hebr.12: 25 Ziet dan toe, dat gij Hem, die spreekt, niet afwijst. Want als genen niet ontkomen zijn, toen zij Hem afwezen, die zijn godsspraak op aarde deed horen, hoeveel te minder wij, als wij ons afwenden van Hem, die uit de hemelen (spreekt). Onze God is een verterend vuur. Zij hebben Hem afgewezen. Daardoor zijn zij in ballingschap gegaan. Maar Hij zal hen vertroosten en doen terugkeren tot Tsion Jesaja 51: 4 en tot Torah, tot Hemzelf.  Want wij zijn genaderd tot de berg Tsion, de stad van de grote Koning, tot God, de Rechter over allen. Van Tsion zal zijn scepter, de Torah uitgaan naar alle volken, Jesaja 2:3 en wij zullen naar de Stem van de goede Herder horen en vrede vinden. Hoe zouden we kunnen en durven naderen zonder een volmaakte Middelaar die Zijn levensbloed, Zijn ziel ten borg stelde voor u en voor mij.Presentator,Robert BernsSupport the show

Nektar bildades hösten 2023, när Ilean Arvman Nelson just börjat gymnasiet och skolkade från ett svenskprov för att skriva en låt på svenska. Han spelade upp den för sin kompis Isak Zander som blev trummis i Nektar, där även basisten Elliot Axelsson Olsson, gitarristen Leo Larsson och keyboardisten Zion Merking ingår. I fjol blev Nektars debutalbum "Magnolia" en stor kritikerframgång och bandet utnämndes till "årets genombrott" av tidningen Gaffas läsare. Nu hälsar Ilean Arvman Nelson och Zion Merking på hemma hos Strage för att prata om texter som inspirerats av att gå hem tidigt från klassfester, om att ta hand om unga fans som kollapsar, om låten som de tycker är den bästa som skrivits på svenska (Solens "Fjärran stränder"), om sina barndomsminnen av Kents "Tigerdrottningen" och om när Strage nyligen skrev upp dem på gästlistan till Kent-efterfesten på Berns där de, efter att ha nekats av vakterna, fick smugglas in via köksingången.

We talk beefs (beeves?), dig into Internet drama, and have fun. The NBA is now a 365-day league and it's never been more present in pop culture. From Kevin Durant's burner accounts to LeBron taking his talents anywhere to trusting the Process, the NBA is becoming a pop culture requirement. At the same time, sports can have gatekeepers that make it insular and frustrating for people who aren't die hard fans. We're here to prove that basketball is entertaining to follow for all fans, whether you're actively watching the games or not. Featured in The New York Times!

Is the Kingdom of God present, future or both?

What if you found light amidst the darkest times? Jahan Berns shares her compelling journey from the chaos of a war-torn Uganda to the peace and hope she discovered through faith. Growing up surrounded by violence and loss, Jahan's story is one of resilience and redemption. Faced with the occult's pull during desperate moments, a British missionary boarding school became her sanctuary. There, the profound impact of faith and scripture brought healing and renewed strength to her life, shaping her path toward resilience and triumph over adversity.Jahan's story doesn't stop in Uganda; it extends to her rise in America, where success met a divine calling. From a flourishing career as an attorney, Jahan felt the profound call to full-time ministry, leading to the creation of Triumph of Hope. Her transformative experiences and prophetic encounters, particularly in 2020, affirmed her path. Jahan's narrative underscores a universal truth: material success is fleeting without spiritual awakening and hope, serving as an anchor for the soul in a world in search of meaning.At Triumph of Hope, the mission is clear—preach the gospel, disciple believers, and cultivate prayer partnerships. We discuss their upcoming retreat, a transformative experience aimed at empowering participants with God's grace and love, inspired by scriptures like 2 Corinthians 9:8 and Isaiah 55. This retreat promises a refreshing burst of spiritual renewal, open to all, with scholarships ensuring accessibility for everyone. We close with a heartfelt prayer for listeners, inviting divine grace and protection into your lives. Join us in embracing a journey filled with divine hope and salvation.Triumph of Hope's Abound 30A retreat is on February 7th -9th 2025 in Watercolor / Santa Rosa Beach FL.

Chip Scoggins, Ryan Burns and Justin Gaard review the Gophers 27-24 loss to Michigan on the pod this week. They start by introducing a new member that joined from Michigan Stadium (Randy Berns) before discussing the Big Ten all but admitting the refs screwed up the offsides on the onside kick. There were many things that led to the loss that are also part of the conversation. We wrap it up with some Alabama/Georgia talk and thoughts on the Big Ten/SEC meetings coming up this month. 

Keith Berns, co-founder of Green Cover Seed, is a key figure in the regenerative agriculture movement. Raised on a farm in South Central Nebraska, Keith was a teacher for 10 years before returning to the family farm in 1998, where he and his brother Brian adopted no-till techniques. In 2006, they got introduced to multi-species cover crops, which transformed their farming approach.  Inspired by the positive effects of diverse cover crops on soil moisture retention, plant health, and livestock, Keith and Brian co-founded Green Cover Seed in 2009. The company has since grown significantly, now providing seed for over a million acres annually and playing a pivotal role in promoting regenerative farming practices across the U.S. In this episode, John and Keith discuss: Experimentations that led to diverse cover crop systems Moisture efficiency in multi-species cover crops Weed management through cover crops Increased livestock performance with diverse pasture Nutrient cycling with broadleaf cover crops Additional Resources To learn more about Keith and Green Cover Seeds, please visit: https://greencover.com/ To download Green Cover's Soil Resource Guide, please visit: https://greencover.com/freeguides/ To learn more about AEA's seed treatment products, please visit: https://advancingecoag.com/seed-treatments/   About John Kempf John Kempf is the founder of Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA).

The main focus is in understanding the possible role of design in infrastructures. This series is part of the work done for the EU project: IRISCC. Integrated Research Infrastructure Services for Climate Change Risks. In this project we will develop services using a co-design framework. Therefore, my main question is how design could contribute to the development of services? This interview is part of the lists: D&D in English, Infrastructures, Alimentos y diseño, Comida y diseño, Irlanda y diseño, Finlandia y diseño y Activismo y diseño.
