Podcasts about Exile

In today's reading from Jeremiah, Fr. Mike points out how God rejoices in doing us good, and wants to pour out his grace and mercy upon us. As we begin reading from Judith, he explains that, while it might not be historically accurate, the story is there to convey truth. The readings are Jeremiah 32, Judith 1-2, and Proverbs 16:25-28.

Episode 825 has classic hardcore and punk bands covering, "oldies," a partial Exile on Main Street reimagining, some power pop, glam and even some swing. Another roller coaster ride, as it should be. 

Michael Moritz has written books through every phase of his life: the first history of Apple and an account of Chrysler's near-death while he was a journalist at Time, a study of Alex Ferguson's Manchester United in the middle of his 38 years at Sequoia, and now Ausländer, a family memoir, after leaving the firm. Moritz calls himself a dilettante with too many interests, but listen to him on learning to paint in his 40s, or the questions he would ask a ten-year-old boy in a German village in 1890, and you may decide that unsatisfied curiosity is not a small thing to build a life on. Tyler and Michael discuss his childhood in Wales, where his love for visual arts came from, why he disappointed his Latin teacher, having Thanksgiving dinner with Philip Roth, why children don't interrogate their parents about their history, what he feels visiting Germany and why he now holds German citizenship, how a history major with no technical background talked his way into Sequoia, his unpublished Don Valentine profile, what people underrate about Steve Jobs, obsessives versus dilettantes, why capitalism was more ablaze in China than America, what funding the Booker Prize taught him about his own ignorance, how to improve San nonprofits, how an incurable cancer diagnosis changed his calendar, why Britain's stuck, what he'll learn next, and more.

We all know the Steve Jobs who came back in the late 1990s and saved Apple from becoming a footnote. And we've all heard the story of how, in 1985, he was pushed out of the company he'd created. What we don't know is what happened in between. Geoffrey Cain spent years reconstructing the decade Jobs spent outside Apple. NeXT spent years losing money. His co-founders left. His investors lost faith. His fortune nearly disappeared. At one point, he was a weekend away from shutting the company down. Somewhere in those failures, Jobs learned how to become the leader Apple would eventually need. This is Steve Jobs before he became Steve Jobs. ------ Chapters: (0:51) Why Steve Jobs Was Pushed Out of Apple (3:04) Steve Jobs' Failed Coup Attempt to Oust CEO (4:33) The Failure of Macintosh II (8:27) Starting NeXT Computers (9:34) The Story Behind NeXT's Iconic Logo (11:38) A Perfect Cube: The Impossible Design of NeXTcube (13:50) What Movies Get Wrong About Steve Jobs (14:02) The Ultimate Trait Steve Jobs Looked For in Hiring (14:59) Decision Making By Intellectual Combat (16:40) Steve Jobs' Reality Distortion Field (17:25) The Flaw that Almost Destroyed Steve Jobs (21:25) How NeXT Software Changed Computing Forever (24:44) Steve Jobs' Self-Sabotages at NeXT (25:02) Ross Perot and Steve Jobs (28:48) How Pixar Saved Steve Jobs from Bankruptcy (29:19) The Realization Steve Jobs Had at Rock Bottom (31:49) The Last Ditch Effort to Save NeXT Computers (38:55) Steve Jobs Gets His Revenge (43:09) Larry Ellison's Friendship with Steve Jobs (45:05) How Steve Jobs Brought Out the Best in His Employees (48:08) The Lessons Steve Jobs Learned From Failure (50:08) Bill Gates and Steve Jobs Rivalry (51:44) The Funniest Steve Jobs/Bill Gates Moment (53:43) Steve Jobs Takes Over As Apple CEO (57:08) How Meeting Laurene Changed Everything (59:01) Rapid Fire Questions (59:21) How Steve Jobs Inspired His Team (1:00:31) Steve Jobs Medical Treatment (1:01:42) What We Can Learn from Steve Jobs ------ Follow Geoffrey Cain: X: https://x.com/geoffrey_cain ------ Newsletter: The Brain Food newsletter delivers actionable insights and thoughtful ideas every Sunday.

Exile can be both literal and metaphorical – a physical displacement from home and a deeper experience of living in a place, season, or circumstance where we feel unsettled, disconnected, or longing for something more permanent. JRR Tolkien wrote to his son, "Our whole nature at its best and least corrupted, its gentlest and most humane, is still soaked with a sense of exile." Yet Jesus knows exile full well as he left his heavenly home to make a home with us in our wilderness experience as we wait for the permanent home prepared for us and coming to us in the age to come. The faithful one is faithfully with us as we orient ourselves to his presence even in our experiences of exile. Scripture: Hebrews 11:13-16

Makenzi Koyen kicks off our new series based in the book of Peter called 'A Life Worth Living' - Sunday August 30th, 2026

Josiah Osgood, Part Two: Cicero reaches his political peak by defeating Catiline for the consulship and exposing his popular debt-relief conspiracy. However, executing five citizen conspirators without a trial becomes Cicero's fatal mistake. His enemy Publius Clodius Pulcher, seeking revenge after Cicero breaks his alibi in the sacrilegious Bona Deascandal, passes a law exiling anyone who executed citizens without trial. Cicero's prized mansion is destroyed, and he is forced into exile. He eventually returns, witnesses Julius Caesar's dramatic assassination, and wages a fatal oratorical war against Mark Antony via his Philippics, leading to his execution. (2)

Jane Rogoyska, author of Hotel Exile: Paris in the Shadow of War, Part Two: Rogoyska details how German anti-fascists and French Jews fled Paris for Marseilles and Spain in 1941. While Heinrich Mann escaped successfully, philosopher Walter Benjamin tragically committed suicide at the Spanish border. Rogoyska notes that Samuel Beckettjoined the resistance after Paul Léon's arrest. The Abwehr, aided by the treacherous priest Robert Alesch, infiltrated resistance networks, but was sidelined as the Gestapo's brutality worsened. Post-war, the Lutetia hotel became a repatriation center processing concentration camp survivors. Beckett survived and wrote literary masterpieces, while Alesch was executed. (6)

Hey, everybody! Sid and O'Dell are back this week to discuss some of the biggest announcements from Gamescom, the upcoming full release of Path of Exile 2, and our latest gaming obsessions.  

The promised land of intimacy is not a quiet house. It is a payout. You walk in looking for the land of milk and honey embodied within a person. Someone to end the wandering. Someone to cash the check the first house bounced. Metaphorically speaking, Egypt is or was that first house. First deep love and first fracture in the same hands. Parental potters, works in progress, missing chances to love on you and tend what you needed. You loved them and quietly loathed them in the same breath. You lowered the price of being shaped. The labor was the cost of the strategy you had to develop, which let you keep the love for the parental potter's hands while surviving the mess their brokenness created within the environment and within your chest. Canaan is the fantasy that one later body will be the exodus. Disney named it happily ever after. Spacious. Sweet. Rest from that labor. Needs that no longer have to go on sale. No more exposure. No more self-knowledge. Happily ever after shirks the responsibility of a holographic relational environment. That environment is a crucible. Psychological nudity. Being known without a costume. The credits roll so you never have to stand in that. Inheritance, as if a vow sworn to a people could be performed by a spouse. You call that chemistry, destiny, finally. Intuition says I can rest now. Ask which climate trained that rest. The potter's house or here. Authority sold you settlement as love, then sold you the ending. Reason says one finite person cannot flow with milk and honey on command, and cannot cancel the crucible. Canaan in a couple is destination-logic, not peace-logic. In the text the land is sworn possession, deliverance into fruit after barrenness, pasture after scarcity, rest from war. Cities you did not build. Wells you did not dig. Vineyards you did not plant. Eat, be full, do not forget. That cargo gets dropped on a lover and renamed happily ever after. They will see you so the first invisibility dies. They will stay so the first leaving gets reversed. They will tend what the first potters missed. Conflict then feels like eviction from the land. Ordinary human limit feels like exile, like having to raise the price of yourself again. Peace becomes a product you buy with silence, sex, image, or church. You were not relating. You were occupying. The land already had people in it. Promise arrives with contest. Spies taste the fruit and still panic at the giants. Watch what you do after closeness. That is the empirical test. Do you soften into here, or do you scan for proof the giants are gone, the old quota is canceled, and the story has finally gone to credits. Their actual life becomes what must be driven out so your hunger can settle. A healthy bond is the anti-promised land because it refuses to hire one nervous system to finish the potter's job and refuses to play happily ever after with a human being. Presence is not a refund for Egypt. Relating is not collection for missed tending. Happily ever after is how the mask avoids psychological nudity. A kiss cannot annex a past. A vow cannot unwrite a childhood. The vows you can keep are smaller and harder. Tell the truth. Do not vanish. Do not turn their life into your territory. Stay in the exposure. Stay in the crucible. Covenant in the book can be lost. Exile sits in the same library as milk and honey. So can the marriage that was asked to be Canaan. The mask that will fight this hour is simple. I am the one who is owed rest from the labor of being shaped. I am the one who is owed a land that flows and a story that ends. If I drop that, I do not know who I am. Name one result that would change your mind. If you cannot, you are not inquiring. You are defending the deed. Are you with them in this room, or are you occupying them as the last Canaan that might still make you whole, waiting for them to keep a promise they never made, in a land they are not.

Why did the Rabbis tell the Exodus through the words of a farmer—and leave Mount Sinai out of the story? What if the Torah's shortest version of the Exodus leaves out the most important moment? The story of the Exodus without using the Book of Exodus? In Parshat Ki Tavo, an Israelite farmer enters the Temple carrying a basket of first fruits and recites a compact history of his people: "My father was a wandering Aramean. The Egyptians oppressed us. We cried out. God brought us forth and gave us this land." Those words would eventually leave the Temple, enter the Jewish home and become the centerpiece of the Passover Haggadah. Geoffrey Stern and Rabbi Adam Mintz explore why Mikra Bikkurim fascinated both the Rabbis and modern critical scholars. Gerhard von Rad called it Israel's "little historical creed," while Jeffrey Tigay noted its memorable alliteration and preservation of Israel's landless beginnings. Ibn Ezra, Rashbam and Shadal debate whether its wandering ancestor was Jacob, Abraham—or all the patriarchs combined. Unlike the narrative in Exodus, this declaration is spoken in the first person: "They oppressed us. We cried out. God brought us forth." It allows every later Israelite to enter the ancestors' history and claim it as personal memory. But the declaration also begins the Exodus before Pharaoh. By reaching back to the wandering and vulnerability of Abraham and Jacob, it transforms the Exodus from a single historical event into a recurring pattern of exile and return, danger and deliverance. Like Isaiah in the Haftarot of Consolation, the Rabbis reopened Genesis and repurposed its ancestral voices to give hope to later generations. They moved this declaration: From the Temple to the home From the pilgrim's basket to the Seder table From possession of the land to life in exile From bringing first fruits to telling the story Finally, we confront the great omission: Why does Mikra Bikkurim move from Egypt directly to the Promised Land without mentioning Moses or the revelation at Mount Sinai? Perhaps the Exodus repeats itself, while Sinai does not. Exile and redemption can recur nationally and personally, but the Torah came down from heaven only once. From then on, lo bashamayim hi—"It is not in heaven." The Torah was given to human beings to interpret and make their own. And as Rosh Hashanah approaches, the same first-person grammar returns in the Selichot confession: Aval anachnu va'avoteinu chatanu—"But we and our ancestors have sinned." We inherit not only our ancestors' redemption, but also their failures, their repentance and their hope. Join us for Liberation: Personal and Recurring. Key Takeaways When History Becomes Identity - Sacred memory is not simply the recollection of what happened to our ancestors. By speaking their story in the first person, we enter it ourselves: their vulnerability becomes our vulnerability, their liberation becomes our liberation, and their history becomes our identity. A Timeless Grammar of Liberation - The most enduring stories are not confined to the events that first produced them. By beginning before Pharaoh and extending the pattern into every generation, Mikra Bikkurim transforms the Exodus from a single historical event into a timeless grammar of exile, survival and return. The Exodus Repeats; Sinai Does Not - Liberation and revelation move through history differently. The Exodus can recur whenever human beings move from oppression to freedom, but Sinai was a singular moment.

Message - Pastor Paul I. KimInto the Storm Series 04"God Left The Building!: Glory of God and Exile”Ezekiel 10:3-24

Do you ever feel like you don't fit in anymore? In this Bible study on 1 Peter 1, Vince Miller begins a brand-new series called STAND FIRM: How to Live Holy in a Hostile World. Peter writes to believers living as exiles—Christians who felt outnumbered, misunderstood, and pressured to compromise. But before Peter tells them how to live, he reminds them who they are. Most people think 1 Peter is mainly about suffering. But suffering is the backdrop. Exile is the theme. And identity is the anchor. In 1 Peter 1, we discover four truths every Christian must remember if they want to stand firm in a hostile world: Remember your identity — you are chosen by God. Remember your destiny — your suffering is temporary, but your inheritance is eternal. Remember your calling — you were saved to live holy and set apart. Remember your family — no believer stands firm alone. When pressure rises, Christians can forget who they are. And forgotten identity always leads to compromised faith. But when you remember that you are chosen, redeemed, called, loved, and kept by God, you become very difficult to move. If you are trying to follow Jesus in a culture that no longer shares your values, this study through 1 Peter will help you stand firm with clarity, courage, and conviction. Subscribe and follow along as we study 1 Peter chapter by chapter. #1Peter #BibleStudy #ChristianIdentity #StandFirm #VinceMiller Reflection and Small Group Discussion Questions: 1. Where do you currently feel the most pressure to compromise, conform, or stay silent as a Christian? 2. Peter calls believers "elect exiles." Which word do you need to remember more right now: elect or exile? 3. How does remembering that you are chosen by God change the way you respond to rejection, misunderstanding, or pressure? 4. Vince said, "The greatest threat to your faith isn't suffering. It's forgetting." What spiritual truths are easiest for you to forget under pressure? 5. In 1 Peter 1:6–12, Peter teaches that trials refine genuine faith. What trial has God used to strengthen or reveal your faith? 6. What is the difference between cultural Christianity expecting comfort and biblical Christianity expecting transformation? 7. Peter says, "Be holy, for I am holy." Where is God calling you to be more distinct, obedient, or set apart? 8. How can Christians live differently without becoming angry, isolated, or self-righteous? 9. Why is Christian community essential for standing firm in a hostile world? 10. What is one truth from 1 Peter 1 you need to rehearse this week so you don't forget who you are?

Episode 230: Yom Terumah - Feast of Trumpets  In this episode of Hebrews in Exile, we explore Yom Teruah—the Feast of Trumpets. We discuss the biblical mitzvot connected to this appointed time, when it should be observed, its spiritual significance, and its call for Yahweh's people to assemble, remember, and respond. We also examine the challenges modern-day Hebrew Israelites may encounter while preparing to observe Yom Teruah in exile. As the feast approaches, this discussion encourages us to examine ourselves, strengthen our connection with Yahweh, and make the necessary spiritual and practical preparations to honor this set-apart day faithfully. Information on First Tabernacle Fellowship can be at found at:  www.firsttab

Episode 229: To Eat or Not to Eat In this episode of Hebrews in Exile, we examine the biblical mitzvah concerning the eating of meat—particularly Yahweh's command that blood must not be consumed, but properly drained and poured upon or covered with the earth. This requirement is an essential part of preparing meat in a biblically acceptable manner. For Hebrews living in exile, obedience to this command can be challenging because we have become accustomed to commercially slaughtered meat without considering how it was processed. This discussion calls Yahweh's people to reconsider their eating practices and begin reestablishing the importance of consuming properly slaughtered kosher meat.

Being a Light as an Exile Steve Goble

James Romm — Multi-Part, Part Two: Professor James Romm details the violent collapse of the Dionysian dynasty and its influence on Plato's writing. Following a falling out and exile, Dion launched an invasion to liberate Syracuse. However, his rule descended into factionalism, culminating in the assassination of his rival Heraclides and Dion's own eventual murder by his soldiers. The chaos ended when Timoleon of Corinth forced Dionysius the Younger to abdicate; the former tyrant famously spent his final years in Corinth as a humble music teacher. Romm explains that these political failures directly informed the Republic, specifically the allegory of the cave and the concept of the philosopher king. While Plato's letters and Plutarch's accounts attempted to whitewash Dion as a virtuous leader, Romm suggests Plato was often politically naive regarding the brutal realities of Syracusan power. (2)

Colm Tóibín is widely acclaimed for the emotional restraint and quiet power of his prose. His writing explores exile, abandonment, loss and denial, the things that go unspoken and the feelings not acted upon. His novels include Nora Webster; Brooklyn, which was turned into a film starring Saoirse Ronan; and its sequel, Long Island, both telling the story of a young Irishwoman who emigrates to the United States in the years after the Second World War.  In June 2026 he comes to Intelligence Squared to discuss the themes of his new collection of short stories, The News From Dublin. In these poignant tales, a woman in Galway learns of her son's death in the First World War; an Irishman seeks anonymity in Barcelona; and an undocumented worker prepares to leave San Francisco after decades in America.  We were joined by Tóibín at Union Chapel in June 2026 where he discussed the themes of this new collection – exploring the ordinary lives of individuals navigating extraordinary moments in history – and refleted on the influences and experiences that have shaped his writing. ---If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

Fr. Mike points out that the prophecy from Isaiah 61 is fulfilled by Jesus (as described in Luke 4). In Ezekiel, Fr. Mike draws our attention to the importance of the Sabbath as the sign of the covenant with God. The readings are Isaiah 61-62, Ezekiel 20, and Proverbs 13:13-16. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

Fr. Mike points out that separation from God is not due to a lack of power or love on God's part, but is a consequence of our willful refusal to follow Him. He also highlights that despite our unfaithfulness, God always has a plan for reconciliation. The readings are Isaiah 59-60, Ezekiel 19, and Proverbs 13:9-12. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

Fr. Mike reflects on some of the ways that people turn away from God, including: worshipping idols, fasting for selfish reasons, and not honoring the sabbath. He also highlights the passage from Ezekiel 18 that tells us that each person will be judged by their own actions, and not by those of their parents or children. The readings are Isaiah 57-58, Ezekiel 17-18, and Proverbs 13:5-8. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

Fr. Mike focuses on Ezekiel's warnings about false prophets misleading the people of Israel, and challenges us to reflect whether we choose to listen to prophets who tell us what we need to hear, not just what we want to hear. Today's readings are Isaiah 51-52, Ezekiel 12-13, and Proverbs 12:21-24. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.
