In this episode Adam, Brett, and Jason continue their series on Article 2 “Free Will” in the Formula of Concord by doing a Bible study on 1 Corinthians 2:1-16.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”The battle between love and lust rages in every human heart. In this powerful exploration of the Maria Goretti story, we uncover how what we consume shapes who we become – sometimes with devastating consequences.Maria Goretti was just 11 years old when Alessandro Serenelli, a young man living and working with her family, attacked and murdered her after she refused his sexual advances. What drove this ordinary farm worker to such violence? The toxic media he consumed played a crucial role. Alessandro filled his mind with sensational novels about crime and lust, creating a dangerous inner landscape where "forbidden fruit no longer nourished him" and "self-abuse infuriated him."Our guest Michael Lichens, author and editor with a passion for overlooked aspects of Christian history, walks us through this harrowing yet ultimately redemptive story. As John Paul II observed, "The problem with pornography is not that it reveals too much, it reveals too little." It fails to reveal the person – the human heart that longs to be loved, not used. This insight resonates powerfully today as young people navigate a hypersexualized culture bombarding them with distorted messages about sexuality and human dignity.The story takes an extraordinary turn when Alessandro experiences a vision of Maria while in prison. Get Your Copy Here!

The same happens in all aspects of life: the slippery stepping stones sometimes trip us up, but somehow we all end up learning from less than joyous times.

In this soul-nourishing conversation, Kat sits down with Lynnsey Robinson—a certified hypnotherapist and intuitive guide—shares her journey into the world of hypnotherapy and spiritual healing. She speaks to the deep connection between her intuitive abilities and the subconscious realm, offering insight into how past life regression and ancestral work can uncover what's been hidden and gently bring it to light. The dialogue flows through various healing modalities, including EFT and EMDR, each one held with reverence for the body's innate wisdom and capacity to heal. At its core, this conversation is a reminder that emotional healing is both personal and ancestral, and that true transformation begins with self-awareness, compassion, and the courage to feel what's been unfelt.00:00 – Introduction to Hypnotherapy and Intuition07:52 – Where Intuition Meets the Subconscious15:17 – The Transformative Power of Hypnotherapy18:50 – Mediumship, Energy, and Spirit Connection25:38 – Trauma as a Catalyst for Spiritual Growth40:13 – Free Will, Patterns, and Personal Power45:52 – The Family System's Role in Emotional Healing47:34 – Subconscious Work & the Hypnotic State50:30 – Ancestral Connection as a Healing Portal

SummaryIn this conversation, Clayton Cuteri delves into the multifaceted concept of karma, exploring its origins, cultural interpretations, practical applications, and the debates surrounding it. He emphasizes the importance of understanding karma as a principle of cause and effect, moral accountability, and personal responsibility. The discussion also touches on the complexities of free will versus determinism and the potential for victim blaming in the context of karma. Ultimately, Cuteri encourages listeners to stay present and mindful in their actions as they shape their karmic outcomes.Clayton's Social MediaLinkTree | TikTok | Instagram | Twitter (X) | YouTubeTimecodes00:00 - Intro01:18 - Cultural Interpretations of Karma09:31 - Practical Applications of Karma15:22 - Debates and Controversies Surrounding KarmaIntro/Outro Music Producer: Don KinIG: https://www.instagram.com/donkinmusic/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/44QKqKsd81oJEBKffwdFfPSuper grateful for this guy ^Send Clayton a text message!Support the showNEWSLETTER - SIGN UP HERE

Cindy and Jeffrey discuss how we can become more aware of what is causing us to feel drained or exhausted, and how to use our Free Will to shift ourselves into greater energy!

Saint Augustine of Hippo (354–430 CE), a prominent theologian, philosopher, and bishop in Roman North Africa, profoundly influenced Western Christianity and philosophy. Known for works like Confessions, The City of God, and On Christian Doctrine, he developed doctrines on original sin, grace, just war, and ecclesiology. His thoughts shaped medieval theology, inspired Protestant Reformers, and continue to impact Christian teachings.

Modern day students have a great debt of gratitude to the Vedic masters who have captured and preserved Vedic wisdom for millennia, making it available for us to apply to our lives today.One of the most prolific of these masters is Veda Vyasa, who is recognized as being responsible for documenting as much as three quarters of the Vedic literature, and organizing, or “sequencing” it, in such as way that we are still able to access and apply the wisdom even today.In this episode, which includes questions from audience members, Thom gives as a brief insight into the life and work of Veda Vyasa, the Cosmic storyteller.It's a fitting prelude to Thom's upcoming residential course, Vedanta Vyasa, to be held in Sedona this coming July.

The boys try and fail to do a police interogation bit, and get meta wit it. Then Dave asks Breht what the shape of the universe is, leading to an extended conversation about cosmology, including whether the universe is infinite or finite, what leading scientists deduce from the curvature of space time, the size of the observable universe, the speed of light, and whether or not our entire universe is actually inside a black hole... Then they explore the psychology of crowds - at sports games, protests, concerts, etc. - before finally launching into a discussion on the philosophy of Existentialism and the question of Free Will.

“I grew up with puppetry and voices and weird little characters. I never really let that go — I just found ways to turn it into a life.” - Nate Begle In this episode, we're joined by Nate - He's a voice actor and puppeteer with over two decades of experience in storytelling across stage, screen, and sound. His career has spanned live theme park shows, national commercials, animation, and narration work for over 30 audiobooks. Nate has collaborated with major creative institutions, including James Patterson, The Jim Henson Company, Walt Disney Entertainment, and Sesame Street. Deeply rooted in performance, character work, and voice, Nate brings a grounded and authentic presence to everything he creates. He allows the characters, not the performer, to take center stage.Nate and I nestle in for a tender, playful, and witty conversation about a life built around performance. We talk discovering creative purpose early, navigating years of invisible work, and learning how to keep showing up for the craft even when no one is watching.We talk about his roots in Midwest community theater, how Fraggle Rock cracked open a lifelong fascination with puppetry, and the reality of building a career from bits and odd jobs to full-time creative expression. Along the way, we dive into themes like staying grounded while performing, the therapeutic power of play, self-belief in the face of doubt, and the surprising joy of working just off-camera.From humor and nostalgia to identity and intention, this conversation brings small insights that build into something honest, warm, and very real.More notable quotes from the episode:- “A lot of people think voiceover is just ‘talking,' but it's not. It's acting. It's truth-telling. It's intention.”- “It's like, if you see something that's not available where you're at - then make it.”- “There's a moment where you stop trying to get it perfect and start asking if it feels true. That's when you know you're doing the work.”For more on Nate Begle, head over to his IMDB here: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4662429/Checkout Nates website here: https://www.natebegle.com/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@NateBegleLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nate-begle-785155bb/Hit subscribe, we'll see ya next episode.

Lots of questions and debates have existed around humanity and the notion of individual Free Will. what seeing human ecology and the Human Hero's journey through the Lens of Syntropy makes available is moving beyond the flawed language premise of Free Will being a noun as opposed a verb and more over that we greatly benefit from inquiring with the Free part of Free Will and the "Why" someone's will is not operating freely and in peaceful operating activity when a choice for navigating Life is to be made#syntropy #freewill #sovereignty #humanity #humannature #syntropic #cultprogramming #language #english #socialengineering #nature #soul #souls #syntropicagroforestry #metaphors #wisdom #sophia #ecologic #freedom #God #theology #soulful #purpose #free #willingness #humandamage #unresolvedtrauma #trauma #healing #5primaryimprints #socialconditioning #life #livingfree #cells #reenableyournature #enlightenment #spiritualbypassing #freechoice

Ever wonder why you can recognise your friend's face instantly but struggle to remember where you put your keys? Your brain is running the most sophisticated learning system ever created, and most of us have no clue how it actually works. Nicholas Shea is an Oxford and King's College Researcher working in philosophy of mind, cognitive neuroscience and artificial intelligence. He breaks down the fascinating psychology behind how we build concepts in our minds. Think of concepts as mental shortcuts - when you see a dog, you don't analyse four legs, fur, and a tail. Your brain instantly accesses everything you know about dogs. We dissect these fundamental building blocks of learning into how the brain actually works and learns, and build mastery. Three key takeaways: What builds basic concepts into subject mastery? How do emotions inform decision-making?

Recently, we as a community have been having some very important discussions around integrity and our values so that we may be a genuine place of spiritual learning and a safe and inclusive space for practitioners of all sorts, with all types of dispositions who belong to all sorts of spiritual traditions and backgrounds! Naturally, we need to talk about issues of sex, money and power which are most often the downfall of spiritual leaders and spiritual communities. Having clear ideals and having the courage to hold one another to them is perhaps the most important thing we can do so that we don't make the obvious (and very natural) mistakes that spiritual communities have been making for not only centuries, but millennia! In this Q&A discussion following our Free Will vs. Determinism/Self Effort vs. Grace in Tantra discussion, we picked up on some of the themes from the Advice to Spiritual Teachers & Aspirants talk and expanded on them to present a strategy for staying safe in and getting the most out of spiritual learning communities. Support the showLectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST and Friday 10am PST and again Friday at 6pm PST.Use this link and I will see you there:https://www.zoom.us/j/7028380815For more videos, guided meditations and instruction and for access to our lecture library, visit me at:https://www.patreon.com/yogawithnishTo get in on the discussion and access various spiritual materials, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/U8zKP8yMrM

He is so fun to engage with, and I always learn new things when I'm listening to him. Neil Gaur is the founder of Portal to Ascension. In this discussion, we focus on the importance of shadow work, discuss various star races like Lyrans and Sirians, and explore the roles of snakes and dragons in humanity's history of ascension and descension. Neil also shares insights from his many lives in Orion and explains how these experiences relate to his current work.  This episode promises to stretch your understanding with discussions on ancient civilizations, hidden truths, and the intricate balance of light and shadow within and around us.

Recently, we've been reflecting a lot on Is There Free Will? and also How To Really Worship Kālī | Free Will vs Determinism to explain Sri Ramakrishna's very subtle position on the issue: God alone is the Doer ("not even a leaf moves but by the will of God") and yet there arises in us by God's will the "feeling" of free will which makes our decisions meaningful! But ultimately, we realize (a) God only has been doing everything and playing all the roles (absolute determinism on the level of the individual) but also(b) you are God (absolute free-will and voluntarism on the level of the true identity) But while the "free will vs determinism" discussion is a supremely important theme in our personal spiritual lives, another equally important and very related theme is that of "self-effort vs grace"! In this talk, we explain why(a) grace is the only factor in spiritual life and (b) grace can never be caused by anything since that would contradict God's freedom of which grace is an expression and yet (c) we should still do intense spiritual practices anyway since c.i. the very fact that we want to do spiritual practices (and that we have a guru to show us how) is itself a function of grace andc.ii. spiritual practices are worth doing in and of themselves, just for fun and without any desire for outcome! Of course, since we gave this talk as part of our Paramārthasāra of Abhinava Gupta series (which meets on zoom every Friday at 11am PST via the house link here), we use three verses from our text to substantiate our claims on grace:आदर्शे मलरहिते यद्वद्वदनं विभाति तद्वदयम्।शिवशक्तिपातविमले धीतत्त्वे भाति भारूपः॥९॥Just like a face  shines in a mirror free of impurities, exactly like this, this Shining One (śiva/Self) shines resplendently in that intellect which has been made spotless by Lord Shiva's grace.परमं यत् स्वातन्त्र्यं दुर्घटसम्पादनं महेशस्य।देवी मायाशक्तिः स्वात्मावरणं शिवस्यैतत्॥१५॥The Goddess Māyāśakti is the Supreme Freedom of the Great Lord  to accomplish (sampādanam) that which is impossible/inconceivable (durghata): the covering (āvarana) of his very own self (svātma).एकस्मिन्घटगगने रजसा व्याप्ते भवन्ति नान्यानि।मलिनानि तद्वदेते जीवाः सुखदुःखभेदजुषः॥३७॥If the space within one pot is filled with dust, the space within other pots is not stained. Just like that are these individual beings who experience the duality of pleasure and pain/happiness and sorrow.We also gave these two talks on grace some time ago:Śaktipāta & The Role of Grace In Tantra | Vijñāna-Bhairava Tantra and alsoHow To Receive God's Grace | Śaktipāta in Kashmir ShaivismSupport the showLectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST and Friday 10am PST and again Friday at 6pm PST.Use this link and I will see you there:https://www.zoom.us/j/7028380815For more videos, guided meditations and instruction and for access to our lecture library, visit me at:https://www.patreon.com/yogawithnishTo get in on the discussion and access various spiritual materials, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/U8zKP8yMrM

Don't get into fear when you hear the word predestination in the Bible. Everything God has planned for our lives is good, but we do reap what we sow. There is good news: God has not "sovereignly" willed bad or evil for our lives. He is always working to bring good, but our own choices dictate whether we partner with God's plan for our lives.

Your Daily Portion – How to Study Bible Prophecy | Lesson 10 of 13Session Overview- Date: May 31, 2025 (Sabbath)- Host: L. David Harris- Program: Your Daily Portion- Theme: The Ends Have Come Upon Whom the Ends Have Come- Focus: Interpreting Bible prophecy with a lens on the last days, recognizing both warnings and promises in Scripture.---Key Biblical Reference: 1 Corinthians 10:11–13> "Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come."> "There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it."---Section 1: Recognizing Warnings and Missing PromisesKey Points:- Many believers see the warnings in Scripture but miss the promises.- God's people often become self-reliant and forget that every good gift comes from Him.- Historical events (e.g., Exodus) are not just ancient history—they are prophetic models for today.Important Examples:- Exodus Generation: Except for Joshua and Caleb, the first generation did not enter the Promised Land due to unbelief.- Manna, Water from the Rock, Unworn Shoes: God provided miraculous daily needs.- Babylonian Captivity: God's people needed to be removed from Babylon, but also needed Babylon removed from them.Memory Aid:> "Warnings without promises lead to fear. Promises without warnings lead to pride. Together, they lead to faith."---Section 2: God's Faithfulness in the Last DaysKey Points:- We live in the last days, and God's Word is especially relevant now.- God gives examples from history to teach us how to live today.- The stories are not just to warn us, but to show us who God is—faithful, powerful, and merciful.Faithful God Framework:- Faithful Deliverer: God delivers us from every sin and temptation.- Faithful Provider: He supplies every need.- Faithful Guide: He gives a way of escape in every trial.Quote to Remember:> "God can perfectly steer the events that will happen in the last days, events that He revealed to the prophets, but He won't force you to love or serve Him."---Section 3: Interpreting Bible Prophecy with PurposeKey Points:- Bible prophecy is not just about future events—it's about character transformation.- Ask yourself: What does this teach me about God? About my time? About His faithfulness?- Prophecy should lead us to Jesus, the faithful Rock.Actionable Questions:- What does this story teach me about God's justice?- What does it teach me about God's mercy?- How does this story point to deliverance in the last days?Analogy:> "Bible prophecy is like a mirror—showing not only what's ahead, but also what's inside us."---Section 4: Free Will and Prophetic FulfillmentKey Points:- God respects free will, but still fulfills prophecy.- We can choose to follow God or not—but the best choice is clear.- The Bible gives us both warnings and invitations.Quote to Remember:> "Whatever way you're gonna go, if God be God, serve Him."---Section 5: Summary and EncouragementKey Takeaways:- Warnings in Scripture are real, but so are the promises.- God is faithful—He will provide strength and a way out in every trial.- Bible prophecy should be read through a last-days lens.- We are called to serve God fully, trusting in His promises.Closing Scripture:> "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God." – Matthew 4:4---Study Tips & Memory AidsMnemonics:- W.A.R.N. – Warnings, Always, Reveal, Needs (to also look for the promises)- P.R.O.M.I.S.E. – Promises Reveal Our Motivation, Inspire Strength, and EncourageFrameworks:- The 3 Lenses Approach: 1. Historical Lens – What happened? 2. Prophetic Lens – What does this mean for today? 3. Personal Lens – What does this teach me about God and myself?- Promise Sandwich: - Bottom Layer – The Warning - Middle Layer – The Trial or Temptation - Top Layer – The Promise of DeliveranceReflection Questions:- What warning am I seeing in this passage?- What promise is connected to it?- How does this help me trust God more today?Analogy:> "The Bible is like a GPS—giving both warnings about the road ahead and the route to safety."---Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/your-daily-portion-with-l-david-harris--2912188/support.

What falls under God's sovereignty? And what falls under man's free will? This is a question worth answering. There is so much confusion in the body of Christ around this subject, but the Word clearly has the answer.
