    A Thorough Critique of Popular and Psychological Accounts of Meaning of Life

    In this episode, John and Arjun Arora from the University of Toronto present an in-depth critique of current psychological and folk theories on the meaning of life. They discuss the limitations of popular constructs such as purpose, coherence, significance, and mattering, and propose a shift towards concepts like 'orientation' and 'connectedness'. Arjun shares his personal journey from nihilism to understanding meaning, emphasizing the practical significance of this research. The discussion touches on the inadequacies of traditional semantic and personal subjective interpretations, advocating for a trans-objective perspective that integrates cognitive science, phenomenology, and wisdom cultivation. The conversation also explores the notion of deepening our connection to reality and the importance of rationality, culminating in a call for a new metaphysics of meaning that is both practically and academically robust. Arjun Arora is a cognitive science and physics scholar whose work bridges science, philosophy, and the search for meaning. As a student collaborator of Dr. John Vervaeke at the University of Toronto, Arora explores questions at the intersection of cognitive science, metaphysics, and existential psychology. His research focuses on the nature of meaning in life — how orientation, coherence, and connectedness to reality shape human flourishing. Drawing on insights from philosophy, neuroscience, and contemplative traditions, Arora examines how wisdom, rationality, and self-transcendence can counter modern nihilism and restore a deeper sense of purpose. Through his academic and public collaborations, he represents a new generation of thinkers committed to integrating rigorous science with timeless questions of meaning, being, and becoming.   The Blind Spot Meaning in Life: An Analytic Study  Charles Taylor Michael Levin   — 00:00 Welcome to the Lectern 01:16 "What makes a life worth living, even when we are faced by frustrations, failures, and our faults?" 01:30 Meet Arjun Arora 03:00 Critiquing the standard model of meaning in life 04:30 Purpose and orientation 06:00 Coherence and its challenges 08:00 Significance and mattering 11:30 Meaning in life vs. meaning of life 14:30 Worldviews and meta meaning systems 17:00 The role of affordance and adaptivity 22:00 The normativity of meaning in life 47:00 The developmental dimension of meaning in life 52:00 Exploring the connection between wisdom and meaning 52:30 Modal confusion and existential modes 53:00 The having mode vs. the being mode 53:30 The cost of modal confusion 55:00 Existential resilience and meaning in life 58:00 The normative aspect of meaning 01:04:00 The role of trust and belonging in meaning 01:08:00 The problem with the current meaning in life construct 01:12:30 The need for a new metaphysics 01:43:00 The importance of phenomenology in meaning 01:45:00 Concluding thoughts and future directions     —   The Vervaeke Foundation is committed to advancing the scientific pursuit of wisdom and creating a significant impact on the world.

Mark and I have been friends for 30 years and have discussed many topics related to faith and the Churches of God.  He is a well-known author and a great person to talk to.  This is our third podcast.   Career highlights Kellner began writing about issues of faith and freedom in 1983.   From March 11, 1991, to January 18, 2014, he wrote some 1,200 weekly—and for about 18 months, semi-weekly—technology columns for The Washington Times.   He authored a religion-news column for The Washington Times titled “Higher Ground,” which debuted January 25, 2013.   From February 2014 to September 2015, he served as national reporter for the Deseret News in Salt Lake City.   From 2021-2024, Kellner was a national “Faith & Family” reporter for The Washington Times.   He is now based in Mesquite, Nevada.  Areas of focus & contributions Kellner has covered technology topics (especially earlier in his career) and later moved strongly into religion, faith institutions, family issues, religious liberty, and cultural trends.   He has also contributed to other outlets such as Religion News Service, Christianity Today, and various magazines/newspapers.  1 Kellner is a philatelist (stamp collector) and is a member of philatelic societies including the Royal Philatelic Society London, the Collectors Club of New York, and a life member of the American Philatelic Society.   Notable publications He is the author of God on the Internet.   He also wrote a book in the “For Dummies®” series (about WordPerfect or other software) during his technology-writing era.  Significance in journalism Kellner's career reflects a breadth of reporting: from technology journalism to deep engagement with faith and family issues in the public square. His long tenure at The Washington Times (both in tech and faith reporting) gives him significant institutional memory in those realms. Because of his religion and family-focus work, his writing often intersects with cultural, social and values-based dimensions of journalism.

    Join Rolf Jacobson, Caroline Lewis, and Matt Skinner for Sermon Brainwave as they explore the texts for Christ the King/Reign of Christ Sunday (November 23, 2025) - the final Sunday of the church year and Year C. In this episode, the hosts dive deep into what it means for Jesus to be called "king" and how we understand Christ's reign in a world unfamiliar with monarchies. They examine the Gospel reading from Luke 23:33-43, where Jesus is crucified alongside two criminals, asking: What kind of king is this? A crucified king who sees those we overlook and extends mercy to the marginalized. The conversation also explores Jeremiah 23:1-6 and its promise of a righteous shepherd-king who will execute justice, Luke 1:68-79 (Zechariah's Benedictus) and how it bookends the liturgical year, and Colossians 1:11-20's cosmic vision of Christ's reign. Key themes include: * Unpacking the language of "king," "lord," and "reign" for contemporary contexts * The contrast between earthly kingdoms and the kingdom of God * How Christ's reign is realized person by person through tender mercy * The significance of Jesus riding a donkey as a symbol of peace, not war * God's faithfulness in keeping promises to God's people This episode invites preachers and listeners to reimagine citizenship in Christ's kingdom and what it means to live under a reign marked by justice, righteousness, and mercy.

    Creation, Rest, and Reign: What Genesis Meant to the Ancient World (Rachel Booth Smith) Ep. #224

    What if Genesis 1 wasn't about the origin of matter—but the enthronement of God? And what if “rest” wasn't the end of work, but the beginning of reign? In this episode, Rachel Booth Smith, author of Rest Assured, joins Dru Johnson to explore how the Genesis creation story contrasts with other ancient Near Eastern accounts. With a storyteller's gift and a pastor's heart, Smith explains how comparing biblical cosmogony to Egyptian or Hittite myths can actually strengthen, not weaken, our faith in the text. “Sometimes the campfire would get very upset,” she says, imagining ancient neighbors reacting to Genesis' claim that the sun and moon are just objects—not gods. She also unpacks the significance of Sabbath as sacred reign, not divine nap time. “Rest is like saying sitting down at a throne because everything is operating correctly,” she explains. The seven-day structure wasn't arbitrary—it was holy, “marked out,” signaling both the order of creation and the rhythm of life. Most importantly, Rachel shows how this re-reading of Genesis leads us to trust. “If I can get to the end of a Sabbath and realize you are God and I am not, I feel like that was a win.” For Rachel's book "Rest Assured," head here: https://www.moodypublishers.com/rest-assured/ We are listener supported.

    Every morning and evening, the earth sings of God’s glory. As our daily prayer and devotional remind us, the world is overflowing with beauty — mountains that reach toward heaven, oceans that echo His vastness, and people whose diversity reflects His creativity. Yet amid our busyness, we often overlook these wonders and miss the awe that leads us to worship. In this uplifting reflection, Whitney Hopler reminds us that awe isn’t reserved for mountaintops or faraway destinations — it’s woven into the everyday fabric of our lives. Whether we’re standing beneath a star-filled sky, walking through a quiet forest, or tasting a meal that celebrates another culture, each moment of wonder is an invitation to encounter God. Awe is not just an emotion; it’s a spiritual posture. When we open our eyes to God’s creation — both in nature and in people — our worries grow smaller, our gratitude deepens, and our hearts naturally overflow with joy. Today, slow down and look around. You’ll find that the whole world is whispering of God’s majesty. Today's Bible Reading:“The whole earth is filled with awe at your wonders; where morning dawns, where evening fades, you call forth songs of joy.” – Psalm 65:8, NIV
