In this episode, Tripp hosts New Testament scholar Matthew Thiessen to discuss his book on The Jewish Paul and explore a fresh understanding of Paul's letters within their proper Jewish context. Conversation Highlights: Paul's Jewish Identity: Matthew explains how we should understand Paul not as someone who left Judaism for Christianity, but as a Jew who maintained his Jewish identity while believing Jesus was the Messiah. The Law and Gentiles: The conversation explores the complex debates in early Christianity about how the Jewish law applied to Gentile believers, with Paul arguing that while the law remained important for Jews, certain aspects (like circumcision) were not required for Gentiles. Paul's Pharisaic Background: Matthew discusses how Paul's identity as a Pharisee shapes his understanding of the resurrection and how Jesus being raised from the dead modified but didn't abandon his pharisaic worldview. Resurrection Theology: The discussion examines how Paul's understanding of Jesus's resurrection as the "first fruits" reflects his Jewish eschatological hope, even while grappling with the surprising gap between Christ's resurrection and the general resurrection. Rethinking Christian Tradition: Tripp and Matthew discuss how recovering Paul's Jewish context challenges many modern Christian theological assumptions and opens up new possibilities for understanding his message. Reading Paul in His Context: The conversation explores how modern readers often misunderstand Paul by projecting post-Enlightenment concepts onto his writings rather than understanding his ancient cosmology and worldview. Check out Thiessen's previous visit to the podcast: Jesus & the Forces of Death You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Matthew Thiessen is a professor at McMaster University specializing in early Judaism, Christian origins, and the relationship between early Christianity and Judaism. His work focuses on the rise of Christianity, particularly as it relates to early Judaism and the questions related to ethnicity and identity construction.

In this episode, I am joined by Dr. Kurt Gray, a psychologist specializing in the nature of outrage and its impact on culture. Our conversation centers around his new book Outraged: Why We Fight About Morality and Politics and How to Find Common Ground. We explore the psychological foundations of our polarized culture. Dr. Gray, currently transitioning from UNC Chapel Hill to Ohio State, shares insights from his research on how perceptions of harm drive moral judgments across the political spectrum. The conversation delves into how humans evolved more as prey than predators, explaining our heightened sensitivity to threats and tendency toward outrage in modern contexts. Dr. Gray challenges popular theories about moral foundations, arguing that both liberals and conservatives care about similar values but perceive vulnerability differently across four domains: the environment, marginalized groups, authority figures, and religious symbols. We unpack practical approaches to navigating political and moral divides, from the importance of face-to-face conversations to understanding the psychological mechanisms behind moral certainty. They explore how religious communities might address polarization, the challenges of engaging with opposing viewpoints in the social media age, and the limitations of using facts alone to bridge moral chasms. This episode offers valuable insights for anyone seeking to understand and transcend the outrage that dominates our public discourse. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Dr. Kurt Gray is a Professor in Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he directs the Deepest Beliefs Lab and the Center for the Science of Moral Understanding. He received a PhD in Social Psychology from Harvard University. With over 120 published scientific papers, he explores the psychology of morality, politics, religion and AI. Gray is the recipient of numerous early-career and best paper awards, and his findings has been featured in New York Times, the Economist, Scientific American, Wired, and Hidden Brain. Gray is the co-author of the book The Mind Club: Who Thinks, What Feels and Why it Matters. He was almost a geophysicist, but a night trapped in the Canadian wilderness convinced him otherwise.

In the inaugural live stream of the class Paul the Pharisee: Faith and Politics in a Divided World, John Dominic Crossan joins me to dig into the radical historical Paul. Crosson argues for the importance of understanding Paul within the context of the historical Jesus, despite Paul's often radical and misunderstood teachings. We explore topics like Paul's controversial stance on gender and slavery, backed by textual analysis, and the influence of his letters within early Christian communities. The session also discusses the story of Thecla as an archetype of Paul's radical vision and how these narratives have been reshaped to fit different sociopolitical contexts. Questions from participants help flesh out the complexities around Paul's portrayal in the New Testament and subsequent interpretations. To access all 5 of Crossan's lectures, submit questions, and join future live streams, head here to join the class.

Topics include the historical evolutions of religious movements, the role of modernity in creating meaning crises, the impact of disenchantment and exclusive humanism, and the intersections of masculinity and identity in contemporary times. Whether discussing the procedural intricacies of revivalism, the transformative power of community found in choirs, or the overwhelming drive for control in modern structures, Tripp and Gerardo have fun nerding out.

This is an audio version of an essay on my substack, Process This. The essay explores the evolving spiritual landscape of America, noting the decline of traditional religious institutions and the rise of new forms of meaning-making. Here, I examine how Donald Trump and the MAGA movement reflect a unique manifestation of a new civil religion, combining aspects of self-creation, positive thinking, and atavism. Historical context traces the roots of self-creation from Martin Luther's reforms through the Enlightenment and the rise of consumer capitalism. I highlight how Trump's persona and the MAGA movement resonate with American cultural consciousness, focusing on self-promotion, community, and opposition. It also explores the psychological and sociopolitical implications of this movement, the erosion of community, and the yearning for a mythological past, providing insights into the appeal and dangers of this modern spiritual-political fusion.

This is an audio version of an essay on my substack, Process This. The essay explores how digital platforms have transformed human experience into a new form of colonialism. It discusses the historical evolution of the internet from a decentralized space to one controlled by tech giants, and highlights the data extraction, surveillance, and algorithmic governance that dominate modern digital spaces. By drawing parallels to historical colonialism, the essay outlines the systematic ways in which platforms explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate alternative ways of being social. It also examines the rise of a new digital aristocracy in Silicon Valley and the erosion of personal autonomy. Finally, it explores emerging forms of resistance and reimagination, emphasizing the need for digital wisdom, community-owned platforms, and new forms of digital literacy to reclaim human autonomy and genuine connection.

In this episode: Envision your ideal future in vivid detail.Hey there! Thanks for joining me for today's guided meditation. We're going to explore something fun - visualizing the life of our dreams.The foundation of what we're doing is pretty simple - it's all about being present and mindful, without getting caught up in judging our thoughts. When we practice mindfulness, we can just be here now, instead of getting tangled up in worries about the past or future.Once we're feeling nice and relaxed, we'll start painting a picture in our minds of our ideal life. We'll make it feel super real by imagining all the little details - what we see, hear, and feel in this dream life of ours.Then, when we're really into that visualization, I've got a little surprise twist for us.Ready to dive in? Let's get started!PS: Introducing the…

In this episode: Guided affirmations practice to speed up your journey to FIWant to reach financial independence faster? Learn to spot and act on opportunities around you. These could be things like finding a new job, catching up with old contacts, or starting a side business. Once you train your mind to look for opportunities, you'll start seeing them everywhere.I created a meditation to help you do exactly this - to help you see opportunities and take action toward your goals.

You can use this technique to develop any mindset you want.In this meditation, we'll focus on two main mindsets:Opportunities are all around me - in my life and in my work.When I take action, I learn and grow.Here's why this works: Your brain is always trying to predict what will happen next. It prepares your thoughts, feelings, and even your body for what it thinks is coming.Think of it like this: We all tell ourselves stories about how our lives will turn out, and then we act in ways that make those stories come true.

How do you step into a new year with purpose? Life can feel like a constant rush, can't it? Maybe you're juggling tasks right now, trying to get it all done before the clock strikes midnight on December 31st.  But as we prepare to turn the page on this year, what if we paused?  What if we took a moment to breathe deeply, to reflect, and to realign with what truly matters? Believe it or not, you have done a lot of good this past year. Yes, there may be places where you have slipped up or there were hard lessons to learn, but look at the good. And look at the good God has done in you. God loves you. He really loves you. He delights in you! Take a moment to really let that sink in. God delights in you. As we step into the new year, I invite you to hold on to that truth. So, how can you make the new year something that will honor Him and help you grow? Here are 10 things we suggest: 1. Continue to take time to reflect on this past year Where did you see God's hand in your life and marriage? Even in the hard moments, what growth or blessings came out of them? By reflecting, you not only honor what God has done but also prepare your heart to hear what He might want to do next. 2. Start your mornings with Purpose Your mornings set the tone for the entire day. Carve out time to meet with God—reading Scripture, praying, or journaling your thoughts and goals. It doesn't need to be lengthy or perfect, just consistent. A morning routine focused on Him can help you anchor your day in peace, purpose, and His perspective, rather than the perspective of the world. 3. Prioritize reading Scripture from a physical Bible There's something grounding about holding a physical Bible in your hands. It slows you down, removes distractions, and helps you focus on God's Word. His truth brings clarity and wisdom, especially as you make decisions and set goals for the year. 4. Pace Yourself It's tempting to set ambitious goals for January, but remember—life is a marathon, not a sprint. Instead of overwhelming yourself, focus on what's realistic. Break down your goals by quarter. What's most important for the first three months? Then build from there. 5. Aim for 80 Perfection is not only unattainable but also draining. Instead of striving for flawless execution, aim for steady, faithful progress. Aiming for 80% will get you much farther than burning out in pursuit of an impossible ideal. 6. Create a Life Vision If you haven't done this in our program yet, a Life Vision is about looking at the bigger picture. Who is God calling you to be? What kind of legacy do you want to leave? Your Life Vision can guide your daily decisions, helping you prioritize what truly matters over what feels urgent. 7. Take Inventory of Your Relationship with your Spouse this past year Your marriage is one of the most significant relationships God has entrusted to you. How was your connection this year? Are there areas where you want to grow closer—spiritually, emotionally, or physically? Taking inventory helps you identify what's working and where you'd like to improve in the coming year. 8. Remember to Defend Against the Enemy's discouragement Discouragement is one of the Enemy's favorite tools to derail us. Be alert to his lies and counter them with God's truth. Surround yourself with Scripture and people who remind you of your worth and God's plans for your life. Remember, “Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4). 9. Fight the Battle of Comparison Comparison can steal your joy and distract you from God's unique calling for your life. Just as the eye and the foot serve different purposes in the body, we each have our roles in His plan. Focus on what He's calling you to do, not what others are doing. 10. Ask yourself, “What does God want me to focus on?” At the heart of all your planning and reflection, this is the most important question. Seek His wisdom and guidance as you set your intentions for the year. He knows the plans He has for you (Jeremiah 29:11), and they are good. Through it all, stay rooted in God's eternal perspective. Fix your heart on Christ, let His Word transform you, and step into the good works He's prepared for you. As we enter this new year, know that we're here for you. Whether it's helping you grow in your marriage or deepen your walk with Christ, we're rooting for you and we cannot wait to see what God has in store for you. God bless you!   Love,    Belah & Team

Harnessing Inner Balance [00:28:07] “That's a big part of this process…to have courage to undo old beliefs or realize where you've abandoned yourself also requires building a new relationship with yourself where you can trust yourself to step into what is more true, what is more you and you.”[00:36:59] “The feminine's biggest wound is that she'll be too much, too emotional, too sensitive, too soft. The masculine's biggest wound is that they won't be enough. I won't have enough to succeed. I won't have enough power, enough of this. And so the healthy version of that is really bringing union to the inner masculine, inner feminine, so that we can show up more whole.” [01:10:30] “Because we're designed to live life in a way that is both challenging and causes us to evolve and grow, and also brings a lot of joy.

Do you have a prophetic vision from God for your life and business?  Proverbs 29:18 says, Where there is no vision [no revelation of God and His word], the people are unrestrained; But happy and blessed is he who keeps the law [of God]. AMP Another version of Proverbs 29:18 says, When people do not accept divine guidance, they run wild. NLT Others say … Where there is no vision, the people perish: KJV Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint ESV To succeed in our call, we NEED a vision for our lives. The great news is that God has a VISION for each of us.

Today's Guest is Shelli Roberts. Shelli is a Life Alchemist, Transformational Healer, and Success Strategist who works with Awakened Souls who are feeling the Call to Be, Do, and Have more out of their life – More Success, More Fulfillment, More Joy, More Inner Peace, More Abundance, More Confidence.  After navigating and overcoming a lifetime of trauma, she now believes this state of Being is our birthright.  Shelli's Heroine Journey through Life has been fraught with peril.  She was physically bullied every day of her elementary school years, bullied and oppressed in the workplace, and experienced Narcisistic abuse by multiple family members and work authorities throughout her adult years.  This lifetime of trauma has developed a deep well of resilience within her, and deep compassion for others who are still recovering from similar abuse.  Her own Inner Peace and sense of Well-being are hard-won, as is the personal Sovereignty she has cultivated through many years of Inner Work.  Her passion is to empower, guide, and enable healing for spiritual individuals on this same recovery journey so they may understand themselves in new ways that will enable them to become more successful, more joyful, and to unleash their passion into all aspects of their lives - a lot faster than she did!   Through her teachings and courses, speaking, workshops, and program offerings, she guides Awakened Souls to their Authentic Self, and provides healing, coaching, and intuitive tools and techniques for greater self-awareness and greater Soul connection, and practical life application as we navigate our Soul Path experiences towards personal mastery and our Highest Expression.

This time, we'll be tackling the roadblocks that can hinder your journey toward your ideal life. We'll discuss how perception shapes our obstacles, the role of self-doubt and fear, and the pitfalls of procrastination and distraction. Drawing inspiration from James Clear's "Atomic Habits," we'll explore different types of goals—outcome-based, process-based, and identity-based—and how embracing an identity-focused approach can set you up for lasting success.
