Exploring the Connection Between Matthew 16 and Nehemiah For BibleInTen.com - By DH, 14th February 2026 Welcome back to Bible in Ten! Today, we have another bonus episode as our daily commentary from CG at the Superior Word rounds off Matthew Chapter 16. Matthew's Gospel contains 28 chapters, and remarkably, it mirrors the first 28 books of the Old Testament as arranged in the Christian Bible. So in this episode, having considered Matthew 16, we'll now look at its fascinating counterpart: Book 16 of the Old Testament-Nehemiah. Nehemiah (נְחֶמְיָה / Nechemyah) means “Yah comforts.” That is appropriate because the whole book is comfort through restoration after judgment. Nehemiah functions as a historical “control text,” showing an established covenant pattern that Matthew 16 then re-presents prophetically (while still being literal history in Jesus' life, confirmed by the other Gospel writers).  Isn't the Word of God Amazing?! Let us now take a look at 12 connections which which support the summary of the chapter as detailed in the previous episode.     Unlike pairings between Matthew 14 with 2 Chronicles—where the correspondence spans a wider sweep of history across multiple dispensational stages—the Matthew 16 / Nehemiah pairing is compressed into a narrower prophetic frame (the tribulation-period restoration conflict) and does not proceed step by step.  The lack of a perfectly locked step-by-step sequence is itself instructive.   In Matthew 14 the picture maps a long, ordered panorama where chronology matters as it spans events across Israel's history from the dispensation of law to and prophetic future carries a clearer, more sequential structure. .. But in the Matthew 16 / Nehemiah pairing—focused on the tribulation—Scripture is not chiefly giving a detailed internal timetable; it is giving the shape of the period.   So lets turn to that shape now with these 12 steps. A Demand for a Sign and the First Opposition Matthew 16 opens with the Pharisees and Sadducees coming together to test Jesus, demanding a “sign from heaven.” It is leadership pressure-religious power trying to control the terms. Nehemiah opens with the same kind of pressure appearing as soon as restoration is announced. When Nehemiah arrives with authorization to rebuild, opposition rises immediately: Sanballat and Tobiah are “grieved” that someone came to seek Israel's good (Nehemiah 2:10). They then laugh and scorn: “What is this thing that ye do?” (2:19) The pattern is consistent: when God moves to restore, the entrenched powers demand proof, challenge legitimacy, and attempt to intimidate the work before it begins. “You Can Read the Sky… But Not the Times” Jesus says they can interpret the sky, but they cannot discern “the signs of the times.” The irony is that the very men claiming insight are the ones blind to what God is doing. Nehemiah carries that same irony in restoration form. The enemies act as if they understand the situation and control the outcome—mocking, threatening, and plotting as though the work will collapse on their schedule. But they do not know what's really happening. Their blindness shows in this: they only learn after the fact that their plan has been uncovered. In Nehemiah —“when our enemies heard that it was known unto us, and God had brought their counsel to nought…” (Nehemiah 4:15). They thought they were the ones reading the moment, but they were misreading it completely. The builders knew; the enemies did not. And once the plot was exposed, the intimidation lost its power and the work continued. The Sign of Judgment Remembered With the coming of the end times, the leaders of Israel would be expected to understand the situation they are in—but in Matthew 16 they are shown as unable to read it. Jesus calls them “wicked and adulterous” and says no sign will be given except “the sign of the prophet Jonah.” In the previous episode we learned that, Jonah's “Yet forty days” becomes a prophetic template—forty as judgment time—fulfilled in the temple's destruction about forty years after Christ, and then the long exile that followed. The end-times petition is therefore not, “wait for a new sign,” but: look back, read your history through Scripture, and believe. Nehemiah begins with that same mechanism already in place. The “sign” is not in the sky; it is in the city. Jerusalem stands as a covenant witness—broken, burned, and shamed: “the wall of Jerusalem… broken down, and the gates… burned with fire” (Nehemiah 1:3). And crucially, Nehemiah interprets that ruin as meaning—he does not treat it as mere geopolitics. He confesses, “We have dealt very corruptly… and have not kept the commandments” (1:7), and he appeals to what God had already spoken in the Scriptures about scattering for unfaithfulness and gathering upon repentance (1:8-9). Matthew 16 points Israel to a coming historical sign—temple judgment—meant to force a right reading of Scripture and history. Nehemiah opens with an earlier historical sign—Jerusalem in ruins—meant to do the same. In both cases, the issue is not that God failed to leave evidence. The issue is whether the people will stop being “clueless,” read the sign correctly, internalize what it says about their covenant state, and then return to the Lord in true faith. Crossing Over: From Exile-Space to Covenant-Space The movement across the sea of Galilee (and thus the Jordan-line running through it) pictured a spiritual boundary-those “on the other side” needing to come through Christ. Nehemiah is structured around a grand “crossing” of its own: movement from Persia and the regions “beyond the river” into the land where God's name was set. The restoration work begins when Nehemiah leaves the place of worldly security and goes to the place of covenant accountability. Beware the Leaven: Corrupt Influence Inside the People In Matthew 16, Jesus warns of the “leaven” of the Pharisees and Sadducees—doctrine and influence that works invisibly, spreading through the whole lump until everything is affected. The disciples first think He is speaking about bread, but Jesus corrects them: the danger is not what you eat, but what you absorb. Nehemiah gives a historical picture of that same leaven-principle. The enemy does not remain at the gate. He aims for infiltration—to become familiar, acceptable, even respected within the restored community. During the rebuilding, Nehemiah notes that the nobles were already entangled: “For many in Judah were pledged to him, because he was the son-in-law of Shechaniah the son of Arah, and his son Jehohanan had married the daughter of Meshullam the son of Berechiah.” (Nehemiah 6:18). The leaven isn't merely threat from outside; it is sympathy and alliance forming inside—compromise that feels normal because it comes through “our own people.” And when that leaven is left unchecked, it advances from relationships to residence. In Nehemiah 13, Tobiah is not simply corresponding with leaders—he is granted an actual chamber in the temple precincts (Nehemiah 13:4-9). The unclean influence in its mature form, so that what begins as tolerated association ends as sanctioned presence. This is exactly the warning Matthew 16 carries forward. Don't misread the matter as “bread,” as though the issue were external details. The real danger is the teaching, the partnerships, the slow drift—leavened thinking that spreads through the body while everyone tells themselves nothing serious is happening, until the holy space itself is compromised. Power, Pride, and the Military Temptation Caesarea Philippi was highlighted as a picture-space: Caesar as deified man; Philippi as leaning on the “horse” principle-military pride. Nehemiah's rebuilding occurs under constant threat. The people must be armed while they build.  They work with one hand and hold a weapon with the other (Nehemiah 4:17-18). But Nehemiah carefully frames this: the sword is not their salvation. Their security is God, and vigilance is obedience. Necessary defense exists, but pride in defense is a snare. The people are restored, yet always at risk of trusting the wall more than the Lord. “Who Do You Say That I Am?” and the Community's Confession In Matthew 16, we have the God assisted confession: “You are the Christ.” Nehemiah contains an extended sequence where Israel is restored not merely by masonry but by identity-confession through God's Word: “So they read from the Book of the Law of God, explaining it and giving insight, so that the people could understand what was being read.” (Nehemiah 8:8). This leads into confession of sin and confession of God's faithfulness (Nehemiah 9). In the Matthew framework: end-times Jews become true “hearers”- not merely readers of signs, but confessors of what the signs meant. 8. Kingdom-Order, and Covenant Enrollment In Matthew 16, everything turns on identity and confession. Israel can offer many assessments of Jesus—prophet, teacher, threat—but the end-times remnant is identified as those who follow Peter's confession: “You are the Christ.” After this, Jesus blesses Peter with a name that ties back to the only sign granted—Bar-Jonah, “son of Jonah.” In other words, Peter typifies the Jews who have heard the sign of Jonah, interpreted their own history rightly, and therefore confess the Messiah they once missed. That confession marks them out as the out-called, and it is on that proclamation that Christ speaks of kingdom entry—the granting of the keys. Nehemiah provides an Old Covenant “control text” for that same movement: a remnant comes to understanding, confession, and then formalized belonging. After the Scriptures are read and the national confession is made (Nehemiah 8-9), the people do not remain in mere emotion or general agreement. They move into enrollment—a defined act of covenant identity: “And because of all this, we make a sure covenant and write it; our leaders, our Levites, and our priests seal it” (Nehemiah 9:38; detailed in chapter 10). Names are written. Allegiance is publicly owned. Commitments and boundaries are stated. And the Hebrew meaning of these written names themselves bear connection to tribulation period events described in Revelation. In typology terms, Nehemiah shows a keys-of-the-kingdom counterpart in historical form, a concrete act of authorized inclusion into a defined covenant community. As Bar-Jonah represents those who finally hear and identify the true Messiah, the sealed covenant in Nehemiah represents those who finally own and enter the restored order. 9. A Messiah Who Must Suffer: The Offense of God's Way In Matthew 16, Peter stumbles over the suffering plan. The moment Jesus speaks openly about rejection, suffering, and death, Peter tries to correct Him—and Jesus rebukes him sharply. The warning is against demanding a triumphant, expectation-shaped messiah while rejecting the true Messiah as God presents Him—first crucified, then glorified. Nehemiah provides the historical control picture of that same offense. Restoration there advances through obedience under scorn. The workers are mocked (Nehemiah 4:1-3), threatened (4:7-8), and worn down by discouragement (4:10). Yet the work moves forward because they refuse the “easy” path of retreat, silence, or compromise. That is the typological connection: Peter's impulse—“this shall not happen to You”—is the human instinct to reject a deliverance that comes through suffering. Nehemiah's remnant models the opposite posture: they accept that God often brings vindication after humiliation.   10. Deny Yourself: The Cost of Faithfulness Under Pressure In Matthew 16, Jesus' call to deny yourself is not abstract spirituality—it is a demand for costly allegiance. In the end-times picture drawn, it means refusing the survival-instinct that compromises truth, and choosing fidelity to Christ even when it carries temporary loss. Nehemiah provides a clear historical control of that same principle. He refuses the governor's allowance—he will not enrich himself at the people's expense: “I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the governor” (Nehemiah 5:14-19).  In both cases the work of God is advanced by those willing to serve faithfully even when they could have claimed their rights. Vindication: God's Work Revealed Before Enemies Matthew 16 ends with the thought of the Son of Man coming in glory with His messengers-a public unveiling of reality. Nehemiah contains a miniature version of that unveiling: The wall is finished, and the enemies “perceived that this work was wrought of our God” (Nehemiah 6:15-16). The point is the pattern: endurance, completion, public recognition that God did it, not man. What is done in faith is later shown to have been of God. A Remnant Standing at the End Some will make it through the tribulation without tasting death when they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom. In Nehemiah, the “standing remnant” idea is stated in the narrative milestones that mark survival through the entire pressure campaign to the realized outcome. They survive to completion: “So the wall was finished…” (Nehemiah 6:15). They survive the intimidation campaign and remain in place: after the plot is exposed and collapses, the work continues and the enemies are put to shame (Nehemiah 6:16). They transition from building under threat to ordered life in the city: once the wall is finished, “the doors were set up,” gatekeepers and Levites are appointed, and watch is established (Nehemiah 7:1-3). They are still there as a gathered people at the end of the building phase: “all Israel dwelt in their cities… and all the people gathered themselves together as one man” (Nehemiah 7:73-8:1). They move from completion to public dedication: “at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem…” (Nehemiah 12:27), culminating in corporate worship and rejoicing (Nehemiah 12:43). Nehemiah doesn't just end with “a wall.” It ends with a preserved community—still present, still assembled, moving from survival under pressure (6:15-16) into established order (7:1-3), unified gathering (7:73-8:1), and dedication/worship (12:27, 43). So the narrative picture of a remnant standing is explicit: some make it through, and they stand in what God established. CONCLUSION: Why This is Controlled Typology In Nehemiah, the question is: Will the returned people truly become God's people again-by truth, separation, and covenant fidelity-rather than by mere structure? In Matthew 16, the question becomes sharper and final: Will Israel discern what their own history meant, reject leavened leadership, confess the true Messiah, accept the suffering plan, and endure to the kingdom? Nehemiah gives the Old Covenant restoration pattern in history. Matthew 16 gives the New Covenant restoration petition in prophecy-picture-centered entirely on Jesus: who He is, what He must do, and what His people must endure in the tribulation period. Nehemiah rebuilds a wall around a city.  Matthew 16 reveals the confession upon which Christ builds His out-calling. Lord God, we thank You for Your word-holy, faithful, and true. Give us discernment for the times we live in. Guard us from leaven-quiet compromise, false teaching, and fear-driven counsel that sounds spiritual but serves another master.  Strengthen us to bear reproach, to deny ourselves, and to endure faithfully until Your purposes are complete.  And may all our confidence rest not in walls, not in strength, not in man-but in the name of the Lord our God. Amen.

Exploring a Novel Nutraceutical Approach to Brain Cancer Treatment: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses a recent study from the Advanced Center for Treatment, Research, and Education in Cancer in Mumbai, India. The study explores the impact of a simple, cost-effective nutraceutical tablet containing resveratrol and copper on glioblastoma, a highly aggressive brain cancer. The results indicate a favorable shift in cancer markers and a reduction in tumor aggression without the side effects associated with conventional treatments like chemotherapy and radiotherapy. This alternative approach suggests a potential paradigm shift in cancer treatment, focusing on healing rather than destroying cancer cells. The episode highlights the significance of thinking outside traditional cancer treatment methods and the promise of nutraceuticals in oncology.

Friends, it's been a minute. I'm deeply troubled by the times - yet, I'm honoured to share this conversation with Nisha Moodley, an integrative leadership coach, community builder, and founder of the Center for Devotional Leadership.We have been in mutual orbit for years, including sharing a number of mutual friends and an appreciation for each other's work in the realms of cultural healing. While much of our current collective attention is fixed on the horrific revelations of the Epstein files, Nisha and I sit on either side of this inquiry to ask: What is the deeper work required of us now?Nisha shares her perspective on the “holy wail” currently rising from women and mothers—a fierce refusal to continue normalizing a culture of domination and extraction. We explore the “social codes” that keep men silent and the “alpha” masks used to hide deep-seated anxiety. Together, we look at the necessity of moving beyond the trap of being a “good man” to instead take a clear-eyed look at the shadow we all carry.Central to our talk is the exploration of matriarchy- not as a mirror of patriarchal power, but a return to the sacred circle, where our societies are reorganized around kinship, service, and a “soft-bellied” freedom that makes the world safer for all our children.Subscribe to The Mythic Masculine for new episodes in your inbox.For men who wish to do this inner work, you are invited to my upcoming immersion & online cohorts: * Awakening the Wild Erotic, Vancouver Island (April 24-26) * The Deep Masculine, Online (next cohort begins May 3) As well, don't miss the innaugural Cascadia Men's Conference, happening just north of Vancouver Aug 6-9th, 2026.

Today, we're diving into a critical discourse on equity in education with our guests, Ann Ishimura and Decoteau Irby, who are unveiling their forthcoming book, *Doing the Work of Equity Leadership for Justice and System Change*. This episode addresses the challenges school leaders and educators face as they work to create equitable learning environments amid rising resistance to diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. Drawing on nearly a decade of research, Ann and Decoteau show that despite political pushback, many educators remain committed to equitable practices. We'll explore the cyclical nature of equity leadership through their "mornings, middays, and evenings" framework, showing how leaders can navigate their roles and drive systemic change. They emphasize actionable steps such as implementing school-wide equity audits, fostering inclusive decision-making processes, and providing ongoing professional development on equity issues. Join us as we unpack the intricacies of leading for justice and the importance of action over awareness in pursuing educational equality.Exploring the confluence of education, equity, and leadership, the latest Becoming Bridge Builders podcast features a discussion with Ann Ishimura and Decoteau Irby, esteemed education researchers and co-authors of the forthcoming book, 'Doing the Work of Equity Leadership for Justice and System Change'. This episode examines the transformative practices school leaders and educators use to foster equity amid mounting resistance and backlash against diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. Drawing on nearly a decade of collaboration with educators nationwide, Ishimura and Irby unpack the challenges and strategies that define equity-focused leadership today. They introduce the concept of 'mornings, middays, and evenings' as a framework to guide educators through the daily cycles of equity work. The 'mornings' focus on setting intentions and building momentum, 'middays' involve navigating the inevitable obstacles and maintaining progress, and 'evenings' are about reflection and recalibration. These phases can be applied through real-life scenarios, such as starting the day with an equity planning meeting (morning), adjusting strategies during a midday teacher collaboration session (midday), and ending with a reflective debrief (evening). By emphasizing action, they show that real progress requires a commitment to change beyond surface-level initiatives. This episode sheds light on the historical context of equity movements in education and critiques the cyclical nature of progress and resistance, urging listeners to reflect on the ongoing journey toward justice in educational systems.Takeaways: The podcast emphasizes the critical need for equity in education, highlighting how systemic barriers affect students differently based on their backgrounds. Ann Ishimura and Decoteau Irby discuss their decade-long research that underpins their book, focusing on the practical actions leaders must take to promote equity. Listeners are encouraged to understand the cyclical nature of progress in equity work, likening it to daily cycles of morning, midday, and evening leadership efforts. The conversation reveals that the political dynamics of education are essential, as they shape who has access to resources and opportunities in schools. A key insight shared is that education can't be viewed in a vacuum; the socio-emotional context of students plays a vital role in their learning outcomes. The hosts and guests stress that awareness must lead to action, urging educators to go beyond surface-level commitments to effect meaningful change in schools.

Let me introduce you to my good friend Kisma Orbovich. I met Kisma at a mastermind, and the moment I met her, I knew I wanted to know her better both as a person and as a spiritual mentor. In this episode of the Wealthy Wellthy podcast, Kisma shares her journey from international classical musician to prosperity coach, and the pivotal moments that led her to study and teach the universal laws that govern success, fulfillment, and wealth.We talk about intuition, resilience, and what it means to live in alignment rather than force. Kisma breaks down the universal laws in a way that's grounded, practical, and accessible, explaining how concepts like vibration, non-resistance, and cause and effect show up in everyday life, business, and money. She also shares why so many well-meaning people feel stuck, anxious, or unfulfilled, and how subtle shifts in belief, perception, and action can radically change the future to more ease and abundance. This conversation is about moving from survival to self-mastery. We explore the relationship between spirituality and business, why money is energy, and how conscious decision-making can open the door to greater prosperity, clarity, and peace of mind. If you're feeling like there's another level available to you, personally or professionally, this episode will help you understand what's been blocking it and how to begin shifting in a meaningful, practical way. What We Talked About:"You're a prisoner of your past, but you're the architect of your future.""Action is the insignia of life.""Money is energy, and it's one of the great energies of the planet.""If you haven't decided internally that you can have this life, you'll keep running into obstacles.""Gratitude is a soothing emotion that can help reset your vibration."⏱ Timestamps 00:00 Introduction to Kisma and Her Journey01:03 Kisma's Background and Early Influences04:51 The Shift from Music to Yoga and Spirituality09:30 Understanding Universal Laws14:02 The Law of Vibration and Its Impact20:34 The Importance of Action and Cause and Effect30:00 Blending Spirituality with Business Success36:58 The Current State of Humanity and Spiritual Awakening40:55 Common Themes in Kisma's Clients44:51 Practical Steps for Overcoming Struggles48:23 Exploring the Hermetic Laws49:54 Money as Energy and Its Spiritual Significance56:21 Kisma's Work and How to Connect

Jane Armstrong Tucker was a Boston stenographer scrabbling to get by as a single woman in the Gilded Age, until she was offered a once-in-a-lifetime chance. Madeleine Pollard was a Kentuckian with humble roots who had used charisma to work her way into the parlors of the Washington, DC, elite. Tucker hid behind an alias―Agnes Parker―but Pollard had a secret, too. Alias Agnes: The Notorious Tale of a Gilded Age Spy (UP of Kentucky, 2025) details the story of Jane Tucker, who took a job as an undercover detective with a ten-week mission. Her target: Madeleine Pollard, former mistress of Congressman William C. P. Breckinridge, whom she had sued for breach of promise when he failed to marry her. Exploring the intricacies of this trial and a scandal that captivated the nation, author Elizabeth A. DeWolfe demonstrates that a shared lack of power did not always lead to alliances among women. DeWolfe uncovers the strategies women used to make their way in the world, drawing parallels between the previously forgotten and incomplete tales of Tucker, Pollard, and the women who testified in the trial―from formerly enslaved persons, to white socialites, to single government clerks, to divorced physicians.Written in engaging prose with all the intrigue and suspense of a detective tale, Alias Agnes chronicles the lives of women at the cusp of the twentieth century―the opportunities that beckoned them and the challenges that thwarted their dreams.

BUFFALO, NY – February 11, 2026 – A new #casereport was published in Volume 17 of Oncotarget on February 6, 2026, titled “Exploring the potential link between mRNA COVID-19 vaccinations and cancer: A case report with a review of haematopoietic malignancies with insights into pathogenic mechanisms.” In this report, led by first author Patrizia Gentilini along with corresponding author Panagis Polykretis from the “Allineare Sanità e Salute” Foundation and Independent Medical Scientific Commission (CMSi), Milano, an international team of researchers presented a detailed case involving a healthy, athletic woman who developed acute lymphoblastic leukemia and lymphoblastic lymphoma shortly after receiving her second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA vaccine. The authors reviewed existing literature and discussed possible immune-related mechanisms that could connect mRNA vaccines to blood cancers, calling attention to the need for further investigation. The case report focuses on a 38-year-old woman who began experiencing immune-related symptoms the day after her second COVID-19 mRNA vaccine dose. Within months, she was diagnosed with an aggressive blood cancer affecting early-stage lymphocytes. While she initially achieved complete remission through chemotherapy, she later experienced a central nervous system relapse and underwent a stem cell transplant. The sequence of events raises questions about whether the vaccine-induced immune response may have contributed to disease onset or progression. To provide broader context, the authors reviewed several other reports describing similar cancer cases after COVID-19 vaccination. These included lymphomas, leukemias, and other haematopoietic disorders. In many cases, symptoms appeared shortly after vaccination. While these instances remain rare, the authors argue that the patterns merit closer study. They also discuss potential mechanisms, including immune suppression, increased inflammation, and vaccine-related interference with key cancer-protective proteins such as p53. One concern highlighted in the report involves lipid nanoparticles used to deliver the vaccine, which may circulate beyond the injection site and reach organs such as the bone marrow. The authors note that changes in immune signaling, antibody responses, and genetic material could, under certain conditions, create conditions favorable to cancer development in susceptible individuals. However, they emphasize that a definitive cause-and-effect relationship has not been established. “The carcinogenic risk associated with these technologies, which has long been known within the gene therapy field, represents an area of research that cannot be ignored, given the fundamental principle of medicine “primum non nocere” (first, do no harm).” Although the case does not prove that vaccination caused the cancer, it adds to a small body of evidence suggesting that immune disturbances from mRNA vaccines should be studied further.

Jane Armstrong Tucker was a Boston stenographer scrabbling to get by as a single woman in the Gilded Age, until she was offered a once-in-a-lifetime chance. Madeleine Pollard was a Kentuckian with humble roots who had used charisma to work her way into the parlors of the Washington, DC, elite. Tucker hid behind an alias―Agnes Parker―but Pollard had a secret, too. Alias Agnes: The Notorious Tale of a Gilded Age Spy (UP of Kentucky, 2025) details the story of Jane Tucker, who took a job as an undercover detective with a ten-week mission. Her target: Madeleine Pollard, former mistress of Congressman William C. P. Breckinridge, whom she had sued for breach of promise when he failed to marry her. Exploring the intricacies of this trial and a scandal that captivated the nation, author Elizabeth A. DeWolfe demonstrates that a shared lack of power did not always lead to alliances among women. DeWolfe uncovers the strategies women used to make their way in the world, drawing parallels between the previously forgotten and incomplete tales of Tucker, Pollard, and the women who testified in the trial―from formerly enslaved persons, to white socialites, to single government clerks, to divorced physicians.Written in engaging prose with all the intrigue and suspense of a detective tale, Alias Agnes chronicles the lives of women at the cusp of the twentieth century―the opportunities that beckoned them and the challenges that thwarted their dreams.

Have you ever felt like you understand your Human Design chart, yet still notice places in your life where fear, grief, or uncertainty linger — especially around love, loss, and endings?In this episode, I explore why understanding Human Design — like understanding spirituality, death, or consciousness — is only the first phase of alignment. True transformation happens when we move out of the mind and into embodied soul awareness.This conversation was inspired by a quiet moment of grief while watching The Fault in Our Stars, which opened a deeper inquiry for me: what if death isn't the end of love, but a transition? And what if the same principle applies to how we live our Human Design?In this episode, I explore:Why two people can experience the same event — or have similar designs — and live entirely different realitiesWhat it means to move from reading your design to living itHow embodiment changes the way we lead, love, grieve, and let goThis is an invitation to soften, to trust, and to let alignment become something you live — not something you try to figure out.Timestamps:01:19 Exploring the Concept of Death and Transition03:06 The Soul's Journey After Death05:24 Personal Experiences and Insights08:11 The Holding Pattern Explained17:55 Stages of Soul Transition25:48 InvitationSTAY CONNECTED: Soul Guide Circle: JOIN the Soul Guide Circle closed Facebook Group Facebook: FOLLOW on Facebook Instagram: FOLLOW on Instagram YouTube: Follow in YouTube Ready to grow a prosperous soul-guided business?

Is border security truly biblical? At least in the way in which this administration is advocating? In this compelling episode of the Voxology Podcast, Mike and Tim tackle this pressing question with thoughtful analysis and deep theological reflection. Exploring passages like Romans 13 and Leviticus 19:34, they examine the intersection of faith and politics, addressing claims about the Bible's stance on border security and justice. Together, they navigate key cultural challenges, unpacking how scripture is often used—or misused—in political debates. This episode dives into the role of the church in society, highlighting the importance of cruciformity, compassion, and justice in how Christians respond to immigration and broader governance issues. The hosts challenge listeners to rethink assumptions, engage critically with scripture, and consider how the teachings of Jesus call us to uphold human dignity in all circumstances. Join the conversation as we explore how faith intersects with cultural issues, and how humility, curiosity, and critical thinking can guide us in pursuing justice and embodying the upside-down kingdom of God.

They discuss the importance of transformation in faith, the role of festivals in worship, and the transition into Lent. The conversation highlights the need for churches to balance sacred spaces with active ministry in the community, emphasizing the call for believers to be transformed by their faith and to recognize the presence of God in their lives. Takeaways Transfiguration Sunday is a pivotal moment in the Christian calendar. The stories of the Transfiguration of Jesus and Moses are foundational to understanding faith. Transformation is a key aspect of the Christian experience. Churches must balance worship with active community engagement. The significance of festivals in the church calendar should not be overlooked. Lent is a time for reflection and transformation. The encounter with God often requires a response of action.
