Paul's strong language in Philippians 3 might be surprising to our modern sensibilities, “Watch out for those dogs, those evildoers…” It sounds harsh, but his concern runs deep. He's warning the church against turning something good, faith, into something harmful. Religion, when distorted, can divide people into “us” and “them.” When we start to see ourselves as God's insiders and others as outsiders, pride sneaks in, and love gets pushed out. Paul knew that this way of thinking not only distorts the gospel but damages hearts.Become New is here to help you grow spiritually one day at a time.TEXT US at 855-888-0444EMAIL US at connect@becomenew.comGET OUR WEEKDAY EMAILS WITH EXTRA GOODIES at becomenew.com/subscribeGET A TEXT REMINDER FOR NEW VIDEOS: text BECOME to 855-888-0444SEND US PRAYER REQUESTS: via text or email; we'll send you a written prayer from our team

Tara exposes the rising threats to American sovereignty, free speech, and security, from UN taxation schemes and global carbon taxes to European digital censorship laws targeting U.S. websites. She connects these developments to deep state power plays, including the John Bolton indictment and systemic misuse of classified data by elites. The episode examines NATO's unchecked military actions, the exploitation of U.S. equipment, and the obstruction of peace negotiations with Russia. Tara warns that losing the presidency again could mean permanent erosion of Americans' constitutional rights, highlighting how foreign bureaucracies, oligarchs, and political insiders manipulate law and media to consolidate control.

Atheism is often pointed out as a religion, and in many ways, the obsession with health and wellness has become its own secular form of legalism. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar remind listeners that while bodily exercise is valuable, it can easily become idolatry if it replaces worship of the Lord. Gluttony has long been a silent sin, rarely addressed in churches, yet food can just as easily become an idol as the pursuit of beauty or fitness. The guys emphasize the need for balance: a pastor should not be marked by obvious gluttony, but at the same time, believers must avoid falling into the opposite extremes. Humans are wired to worship—so the question is, what or who are you worshiping?There is nothing wrong with caring for the body, but when the motive is self-glorification rather than glorifying God, the line has been crossed. Historically, Christians have been known for fasting, generosity, and blessing others, rather than being consumed by self-care. When self-care becomes an idol, it often reveals a fear of death and a desire to earn immortality. The truth is that the outer man is wasting away, and eternal life is found only in Christ. Motivation determines whether health is pursued as an idol or as stewardship of the temple of the Holy Spirit. Oscar shares that he lifts weights to maintain strength and longevity, aiming to serve God and his family well as he ages. E.Z. adds that part of his drive is to avoid becoming a burden to his children and to maximize his impact for the Lord.The wellness industry has grown worldwide, but combining wellness practices with paganism introduces another possible danger. Practices like meditation or yoga often promise salvation through Eastern philosophies, but they are just another form of legalism that cannot defeat death. Eternal youth is a false hope; eternal glory in Christ is the true answer. Believers should desire to live fully until they die, striving to honor God with their bodies.The guys emphasize the practical benefits of activity, pointing out that humans were not made for a sedentary life in front of screens. Exercising strengthens both body and mind, and tackling tough challenges builds confidence and resilience. At the same time, they warn against being judgmental toward others who practice moderation. Rest, too, is part of God's design, and the Sabbath reminds believers that they are not machines defined solely by their productivity. Ultimately, the message is simple: avoid gluttony and laziness, reject the idolization of beauty, view health as stewardship, and above all, love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength.Send us a textThanks for listening!

Jesus took away the sins of the world...

Americans today are leaving religion in record numbers. For many, the faith, practices, and institutions that once provided comfort and guidance no longer fit their beliefs and values. Today's guest, Dr. Daryl Van Tongeren, a psychologist scientist who engages big existential questions to promote human flourishing, And author of the powerful book: Done: How to Flourish After Leaving Religioncalls this departure ‘The Great Disillusionment.' His research and writing brings attention to several important, but often difficult questions that arise when people are no longer served by traditional religion: How do they find new meaning and purpose? How do they process the grief that often accompanies religious or spiritual change? And how can they navigate challenging relationships with people who do not support or understand? Today we'll explore this complex terrain as we discuss: The changing landscape of religion in the US and beyond, Why leaving religion can be so hard, which Darryl will reflect on through the lens of his research, but also through sharing the tragic story of losing his brother. A loss that left him questioning, and wrestling with his own relationship to the religion he was brought up in and had built his life around for many years. And finally, the possibility that Daryl writes about so beautifully.In his words:If you are rethinking your religious beliefs, have experienced religious loss or struggle, or have undergone a significant religious change, you are not alone. By understanding how people before us have left or transformed their religion, And using their wisdom as a guide,we can discover new ways of finding peace, engaging with the transcendent, And ultimately crafting a flourishing and meaningful life.For more on Daryl, his books, research, and other offerings please visit darylvantongeren.comEnjoying the show?

Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme of “Tough Questions for Christians” with discussions about how Jesus sees us when no one else does. We turned to Matthew 20:29-34, where we see how Jesus healed the two blind men who were calling to Him, despite the people in the crowd telling them to be quiet. Jesus saw those two men and healed them of their infirmities. Then we had Abdu Murray join us to share his faith story, from being a Muslim to becoming a believer, and he debunked the racial myths associated with Christianity. Abdu is a speaker, author, and attorney who specializes in addressing issues where religious faith and emerging cultural trends intersect and collide. He is also the President of Embrace the Truth and has spent decades analyzing how major religious and non-religious thought traditions have addressed emerging cultural issues. Then we had Rob West join us to explain the biblical design for financial generosity in the church. Rob is the host of the nationally syndicated radio program Faith and Finance LIVE, which airs weekdays at 3 pm on 90.1 FM. He is also the host of the Faith and Finance podcast and has a FaithFi App. He is also the CEO of Kingdom Advisors, a community of financial professionals specializing in delivering biblically wise financial advice. We also opened the phone lines to ask our listeners the question, "What was the biggest question you had about following Jesus, and how was it answered?"

In this talk, Jomon introduces the Japanese Buddhist holiday Ohigan, celebrated at the equinox as a time to honor the ancestors and reflect on the paramitas—the perfections of practice. From there, she explores karma not just as action and result, but as a living cycle of intentions, deeds, and the dispositions they leave behind. Drawing on Buddhist teachings, neuroscience, and personal stories, Jomon shows how our propensities shape the way we perceive the world, and how practicing generosity, patience, and wisdom can shift the very seeds we carry forward. She closes by asking: What kind of ancestor do you want to be, and how do you wish to meet this life?This talk was given during the Wednesday night program at Heart of Wisdom on September 3rd 2025. ★ Support this podcast ★

In this crucial episode of Self Talk, Dr. Ray warns listeners to beware of a church or denomination that teaches the gifts of the Holy Spirit, such as prophecy, tongues, and healing, are no longer valid for today. This teaching distorts scripture, forcing it to align with preconceived ideas, and it's perilous.

Listen to 134 Future Now Show Happy birthday to Al today, aka Dr. Future! We are an acquired taste, but once acquired, we are as tasty as Guinness! This week Richard Cray discusses with us the latest with Space X’s humongus Star Ship, and it’s ground-breaking one hour flight from Texas to the Indian Ocean. Dr. Future shares his tale of losing a drone to a giant redwood in Silicon Valley. Bobby Wilder updates us on his Hawaiian adventures, and the Bitcoin flash dive, Greg Panos looks at the rise of quantum stocks and suggests we explore the free AI software, Replay AI, for cloning voices of friends, family and celebrities. Our AI, Ara, introduces a new text to video tool, IMAGINE, and Dr. F demos his use of Replay, with his Rodney Dangerfield personification, and shares a very cleverly done personalized version of the song, FAME, by Idina Menzel. Enjoy!  Starship 11 in action

In this episode, we're joined by two leaders from AdventHealth who have spent decades thinking deeply about the well-being of healthcare professionals: Dr. Ted Hamilton, family physician, longtime mission executive, and national voice on clinician well-being; and Dr. Carla Park, Vice President of Whole-Person Care, Education & Integration. Together, they led a new peer-reviewed study of CMDA members published in the journal, Religions 2025, that revealed something striking: Christian healthcare professionals reported significantly lower burnout than the broader healthcare population, and three factors tended to rise and fall together in those who were thriving: belonging, calling, and virtue. Through practical insights and personal stories, Drs. Hamilton and Park highlight how faith not only sustains healthcare professionals but also equips them to lead and care more deeply for their patients, colleagues, and themselves.

Episode 72 of What Gives?—the Jewish Philanthropy Podcast from Jewish Funders Network, hosted by JFN President and CEO Andrés Spokoiny. In this episode, Andrés speaks with Dr. Keren Fraiman, Dean and Chief Academic Officer of Spertus Institute for Jewish Learning and Leadership, and Dr. Sivan Zakai, Professor of Jewish Education at Hebrew Union College–Jewish Institute of Religion and director of the Children's Learning About Israel Project. Both are leading researchers in Jewish education whose work examines how young people form their understanding of Israel, identity, and Jewish life. And both are recent recipients of the Ilia Salita Excellence in Research Award for the work they've done in this field. In this conversation, we explore their latest findings, what Jewish children are really learning and feeling, and how funders and educators can better support honest, nuanced approaches to Israel education in today's climate. Take a listen.

In this interview with Dr. James Renihan, we discuss the criticisms of the First London Baptist Confession of Faith presented by Robert Bakewell. 

After the previous episode with Scott Wells and Tina Erwin, I realized Tina and I had a lot more to talk about. The subject of Karma and Frequency came up and I was intrigued. After learning that she had written a book on this, titled "Karma and Frequency," I scheduled another interview with her, got the book, and read it. One could argue that nothing in life is more important than managing our karma, since it determines our "luck," how much we enjoy life, where we go after we die, and what happens after we die.  Tina and I talk about Christianity and Buddhism and how there is no religion in the afterlife, universal truths, the Dalai Lama, Martin Luther, how every person can be their own personal connection to God without intermediaries, the importance of living without the guilt imposed upon followers of some religions, the Urantia Book, predescessor energy, karma, reincarnation, why we shouldn't fear judgement, signs, past lives, the power of thoughts, how to deal with horrible people, surrounding yourself with angels, why angels are standing by waiting for us to ask for their help (they earn karma for helping us), the danger of alcohol and how addiction drops your frequency, how we can improve our karma and raise our frequency, prayer, our ultimate mission here on Earth, and more.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme of “Tough Questions for Christians” with discussions about how Jesus sees us when no one else does. We turned to Matthew 20:29-34, where we see how Jesus healed the two blind men who were calling to Him, despite the people in the crowd telling them to be quiet. Jesus saw those two men and healed them of their infirmities. Then we had Abdu Murray join us to share his faith story, from being a Muslim to becoming a believer, and he debunked the racial myths associated with Christianity. Abdu is a speaker, author, and attorney who specializes in addressing issues where religious faith and emerging cultural trends intersect and collide. He is also the President of Embrace the Truth and has spent decades analyzing how major religious and non-religious thought traditions have addressed emerging cultural issues. Then we had Rob West join us to explain the biblical design for financial generosity in the church. Rob is the host of the nationally syndicated radio program Faith and Finance LIVE, which airs weekdays at 3 pm on 90.1 FM. He is also the host of the Faith and Finance podcast and has a FaithFi App. He is also the CEO of Kingdom Advisors, a community of financial professionals specializing in delivering biblically wise financial advice. We also opened the phone lines to ask our listeners the question, "What was the biggest question you had about following Jesus, and how was it answered?"

IRIS IS BACK, BABY! October means horror movies (it's the only time of year I can get away with it) and questionable life choices, so naturally she picked Immaculate, starring Sydney Sweeney, a convent, and vibes that are NOT Christ-like. Robin countered with The Dark and the Wicked, a film so psychologically deranged it makes Hereditary look like a Hallmark movie.Saturday: Robin's back to doing true crime, and this one's WILD. Investigators tried 418 times...yes, FOUR HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN TIMES...to recreate how this victim died. They failed every single time. It's still unsolved.  Sunday: Red, White & Bruised gets its own damn podcast feed because apparently talking about the dumpster fire of modern politics once a week as a series is still making people angry.

Why would an out queer person in the Gay Liberation Days of the 1970s go to church? What church would they go to? And why would they stay? In the 1960s, and ‘70s, the separation between God and gays was not as vast as it seemed. Rev. Troy Perry started the first Metropolitan Community Church in his Los Angeles living room. Tired of flying to LA every week, a Navy veteran started the second one in a San Francisco gay bar. And the Metropolitan Community Church of San Francisco was there for a young lesbian as she navigated spirituality, coming out, and her increasingly conservative family. When her friend got sick, she tried to be there for him. Church helped.       For images and links about this episode visit https://www.heavenpodcast.org/episode-2. Get more Outward with Slate Plus!
