I don't care who you are, or how little, invisible or unneeded you feel.  You are not unimportant to God.  You matter and He knows you.  Jesus  once said, "He's numbered the hairs of your head." It's not because He has a hair obsession, He has a you-obsession.  If you feel like you are living in the margins of life, He is so close. He's attracted to the margins. He lives and loves in the margins. If you are seeking Jesus, you might want to check out the margins. Mother Theresa described her ministry strategy as going out and looking for the dying, the cripple, the lonely, the unwanted, the unloved, "Jesus in disguise." What if Jesus in need, is actually the star that will lead us to Jesus in disguise, Immanuel God with us?

The meantime can be excruciating.

We've never had SO many questions from listeners – it seems you're all either desperately seeking scents that have been discontinued, looking for more affordable alternatives; or perhaps wanting to explore differing facets of our personalities with new perfumes. In fact, some of you are hoping to find fragrant disguises we can use to ease us into new stages of our lives… and we've searched high and low to find you the answers to your dreams.

Trust your own divination; you can either ask a question first or just see if the message gives you insight you need, or any other way you wish to use it. You can also just receive guidance from the symbol that calls you and numbers.

Journalist Alice Hines and former Twin Flames Universe member Lorraine, both featured in the Amazon docuseries Desperately Seeking Soulmate: Escaping Twin Flames Universe, discuss the online community that was Twin Flame Ascension, what attracted people to it, how founders Jeff and Shaleia became more controlling and abusive over time, why encouragement to pursue one's twin flame sometimes led to restraining orders, the group's MLM-like structure, why you couldn't always choose your own twin flame, and their use of gender identity coercion.

Welcome to another steamy episode of Mandcave starring your two favorite twin flame pals, Mandy and Mandy! This week the Mandys dive into the tantalizing world of cults like they're diving into a hot tub full of soulmates. Hold onto your singing bowls, listeners; things are about to get spicy.Mandy is shocked — shocked, I tell you — to learn that Mandy still owns her unsent psychotic stalker letters to her college ex-boyfriend. But that does make for a nice segue into today's show. The Mandys take us on a wild ride through the outrageous documentary "Desperately Seeking Soulmates." Jeff and Shaleia Divine are the cult leader equivalents of Ross and Rachel, if Ross was a deranged narcissist and Rachel pathological enabler.The Mandys are dying to see Jeff and Shaleia's actual classes. Maybe Mandy will get Mandy a class for Christmas! Nothing says holiday spirit like joining a cult. Mandy coins the perfect title for Mandy's autobiographies. Plural. There will be several.In the new segment "Cult or Not," Mandy quizzes Mandy on real and fake cults. They all sound plausible when you're talking about the Mandys' wild Friday nights. Let's all join the Universal Medicine cult together! According to Mandy, whatever happens happens, especially when it comes to breast massages. She's a healer, after all.The Mandcave is clearly the cult for us. Come for the disagreements, stay for the sashes and robes at the mountain retreat.

In this pathbreaking work, Shrayana Bhattacharya maps the economic and personal trajectories--the jobs, desires, prayers, love affairs and rivalries--of a diverse group of women. Divided by class but united in fandom, they remain steadfast in their search for intimacy, independence and fun. Embracing Hindi film idol Shah Rukh Khan allows them a small respite from an oppressive culture, a fillip to their fantasies of a friendlier masculinity in Indian men. Most struggle to find the freedom-or income-to follow their favourite actor. Bobbing along in this stream of multiple lives for more than a decade-from Manju's boredom in 'rurban' Rampur and Gold's anger at having to compete with Western women for male attention in Delhi's nightclubs, to Zahira's break from domestic abuse in Ahmedabad-Bhattacharya gleans the details on what Indian women think about men, money, movies, beauty, helplessness, agency and love. A most unusual and compelling book on the female gaze, this is the story of how women have experienced post-liberalization India.

At first glance, the book I'm talking about today seems like the ultimate odd-couple pairing – a insightful analysis of the condition & economic prospects of women in India, combined with the adoration of a national movie icon. However, as it turns out, these two subjects might not be so disparate after all. Today I had the pleasure of speaking with Shrayana Bhattacharya, an Indian economist about her 2021 book, Desperately Seeking Shah Rukh. The book follows Shrayana's time spent collecting data on women's ambiguously defined and chronically undervalued employment across India. Over time, she started to notice a thread common to many of the women and girls she spoke to: a love for a certain Bollywood superstar called Shah Rukh Khan – a love which she in fact shared. Unlike other male action movie stars in India who are big on muscle and short on emotion, Shah Rukh, with his sad, gentle eyes, slighter frame, and willingness to help his cinematic leading ladies peel carrots and wash dishes, has struck a unique chord with the country's women. A lack of financial freedom and bodily autonomy hangs over the lives of the women Shrayana talks to – eighty percent of Indian women need approval from a family member to go outside the home to visit a health centre (171), and three in five adolescent girls feel unsafe in public places (196), she tells us. However, what shines through this text is the off-the-charts wattage of respect and affection with which she tells their stories – allowing both the harsh realities of these women's day-to-day lives and their playful, pragmatic crush on a good-looking movie star to exist simultaneously. Even though the book is a rigorous and detailed sociological analysis, the writing is accessible, fun and witty. It would be a perfect read for someone who is interested in feminism, economics and politics, but who might equally be a little apprehensive about approaching the drier tomes that tend to populate non-fiction bestseller lists. Books mentioned in the episode: One book about India (non-fiction): (50.10) Dreamers: How Young Indians are Changing the World, Snigdha Poonam, about the dreams of various segments of Indian youth. One book about India (fiction): (51.55) Ghachar Ghochar, Vivek Shanbhag (translated by Srinath Perur), a family rags to riches story set in Bangalore. Favourite book I've probably never heard of (52.33): The Higher Education of Geetika Mehendiratta, Anuradha Marwah a coming of age story about a young girl. Best book she's read in the last 12 months (53:22): Sakina's Kiss, Vivek Shanbhag (translated by Srinath Perur), (54.01)  Book she has found disappointing in the last 12 months (54.10): She found a whole genre disappointing – nonfiction accounts of very powerful men writing about themselves and the economy, vanity trip stories about themselves and how they became powerful Desert Island Book (55.24): The Odd Woman and the City, Vivian Gornick, a memoir about friendship and aging, set in New York City, published in 2015 Book that changed her mind (56.15): Future Sex: A New Kind of Free Love, Emily Witt, a guide to modern sexuality, published in 2016 ⁠⁠Find Shrayana: Instagram: ⁠@bshrayana Twitter: @bshrayana Buy her book: https://amzn.eu/d/2YpWR4A Follow me ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@litwithcharles⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for more book reviews and recommendations!

Today's episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.  Let's admit it. Despite the billions of people on earth, the world can be a friggin lonely place. And for the VIP-lonely among us, Jeff and Shaleia charge a mere $8888 for all the answers to life's big love questions. If you're seeking a first-person narrative about what it's like to pay to play in Twin Flames Universe, check out Keely Griffin on ALBC.  For this show, we features Alice Hines – the Emmy-award winning investigative journalist and executive producer of Desperately Seeking Soulmate: Escaping Twin Flames Universe, a new docuseries chronicling the two kooky, creepy founders Jeff – a real Keto Keith Raniere – and his partner Shaleia as they go from run-of-the-mill influencers to building what Vice has called a ‘cult empire'.  Hines dives right into her curiosity around the creepy repercussions of internet culture on IRL relationships and how that led her to explore, report on, and be invited into Jeff and Shaleia's home where she filmed the duo. You can watch that footage in the docuseries.  For now, take a listen for the inside scoop on the culty couple.   NOTES  Alice Hines is a writer, documentary film producer, and news correspondent that speaks truth to power and sheds light on unseen subcultures. She's contributed to The New York Times, Vanity Fair, and New York Magazine, among others. She introduced the term “Chads” – the ideal, buff, white, manly man at the heart of incels' standards of attractiveness. And she won a News Emmy for her work on-camera for a Vice News series. Based on her reporting for Vanity Fair, Alice executive-produced the Amazon Prime docuseries, Desperately Seeking Soulmate. Alice grew up in South Carolina, got her writing creds at Brown University, and even worked as an editor at the sartorial Vestoj, a research vessel with fascinating pieces that explore the bridge between fashion theory and sales – that is, why we wear what we wear.   If you really want to go down the word salad rabbit hole and you're armed with many grains of salt, you can read Jeff and Shaleia's response to Alice's Vanity Fair exposé.    Here's Alice's website, her Instagram, and her Tik Tok.   Also…   Let it be known far and wide, loud and clear that…   The views and opinions expressed on A Little Bit Culty do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the podcast.

The parable of the rich farmer wanting to build bigger barns and Jesus' teaching on worry and possessions resonates with one of the the main themes found in the Feast of Trumpets/Rosh HaShana holiday: God's Kingship and the confrontation with idolatry. Surely, the idols of our age are the search for personal prosperity, peace and security. And when these become our primary goals we are tested in the very things that we crave. Such testing should be welcomed as it enables us to deepen our discipleship and model Jesus' alternative to the world's well meaning, desire for the good life.
