Goff and Burns explain the significant differences between the two, such as their different dates and locations of origin. But they also explore the similarities, with their mutual interest in more ancient writings, such as how some important figures from Genesis—such as the Book of Watchers, with its myths of evil origins— came from Enoch; and how Melchizedek was the priest associated with the Christ figure. This is part two of a two-part series. The first episode in the series was released May 7, 2025. Read the book they co-authored, The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Codices.

Send us a textEver wondered what it takes to officiate at the collegiate level? John Collins, the National Coordinator of Men's and Women's Soccer Officials for the NCAA, pulls back the curtain on a world that represents both challenge and opportunity for advancing referees.With college soccer now boasting the largest officiating pool in NCAA sports—over 5,380 registered officials—Collins reveals the pathways to breaking into this level. "If you're working at the top youth level and at the amateur level, NCAA soccer is probably a fit for you," he explains, detailing how referees typically move from high-level youth matches to college assignments through networking and regional organizations. The conversation delves into how college soccer strategically positions itself between top amateur competitions and professional matches, creating a unique environment where officials can develop and thrive.Collins, who balances his NCAA leadership role with a career in finance, brings perspectives from his own journey as both collegiate goalkeeper and national referee. His insights on evaluation criteria are particularly valuable: "We're looking for critical, skillful thinkers that can manage games, apply the laws, manage participants, and they've got to be good athletes." This emphasis on critical thinking challenges the simplistic "keep it simple" mantra that many referees learn at grassroots levels.The discussion also addresses the evolving relationship between NCAA and IFAB rules, referee shortage challenges, and the critical importance of experiential learning and community-building for referee development. Whether you're considering collegiate officiating or simply interested in understanding the referee pathway better, Collins offers wisdom applicable to officials at every level, including his personal philosophy: "Plan for the unexpected."Ready to explore collegiate officiating opportunities?

Is There a Connection Between the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Library? An Interview with Dr. Matthew Goff and Dr. Dylan Burns (Part 1) Professors Matthew Goff and Dylan Burns realized there were some surprising commonalities between the Dead Sea Scrolls and Nag Hammadi Library. Traditionally, these ancient writings are studied separately, despite their modern discoveries around the same time and relatively close locations.

It's a Quick Fix featuring Joe Buono (@IslesFix) and former VP of Communications for the Islanders, Chris Botta (@ChrisBottaNHL).The list of potential Islanders GMs is long, very long. In the last week, fans and media alike have speculated about a wide range and variety of candidates from Hall-of-Famers, to retreads, to popular Assistant GMs, and out-of-the-box options from around the league.For the first time, possibly in their history, the Islanders are conducting a proper search for their general manager. The man in charge of that search is John Collins, and reports indicate there's been no shortage of interest from qualified candidates around the league.

The best podcast for military veterans, police officers, firefighters, and first responders preparing for veteran transition and life after service. Helping you plan and implement strategies to prepare for your transition into civilian life. In this episode, Navy SEAL veteran John Collins shares an unfiltered, gritty look into what it takes to navigate the unforgiving landscape of military life—and rebuild purpose after devastating setbacks. If you're a veteran or first responder seeking inspiration, identity, and lessons in mental fortitude, this episode is a must-listen. John opens up about his upbringing in small-town Maryland, early brushes with trouble, and the dream that kept calling—becoming a Navy SEAL. With candid vulnerability, he recounts multiple grueling attempts at SEAL training, the mental resilience following the obstacles put in his way, but this story doesn't end in defeat. Shipped off to Guantanamo Bay as a "BUD/S dud," John found himself face-to-face with high-level detainees, performing duties he never imagined—balancing human dignity with the reality of national security. For veterans and law enforcement professionals, his prison operations experience reveals rare crossover insights into correctional environments, chain-of-command politics, and professional identity in uniform. What makes this story powerful is John's relentless pursuit of redemption. Amidst command resistance and peer resentment, he trained in silence, kept his nose clean, and fought his way back into BUD/S and eventually earned his Trident – after being part of 6 different classes. It's a story of raw perseverance and the kind of internal discipline only military and first responder communities truly understand. He eventually chose to exit the Navy after 12 years due to ineffective leadership and the desire to pursue a family. Today he is a Safety Director. Listeners will relate to John's personal reflections on loss, leadership, and the battle between self-doubt and grit. Whether you're a transitioning service member, aspiring operator, or someone looking for motivation after failure, this episode delivers a profound message: the fight for purpose is never over, and resilience is forged in the fire of rejection.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:IG: WEBSITE: LinkedIn: SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:CONNECT WITH JOHN COLLINSSPONSORS:Brothers & Arms USAGet 20% off your purchaseLink: https://brothersandarms.comPromo Code: Transition20Trident CoffeeGet 15% off your purchaseLink: https://tridentcoffee.comPromo Code: TDP15Human Performance TRTGet 30% off your purchaseWeb: https://hptrt.com/Promo Code: TDP
