Faith deconstruction has become one of the defining conversations in modern Christianity—but what does it actually mean to deconstruct your faith? In this episode of The Biblical Mind Podcast, Dru Johnson sits down with pastor, YouTuber, and book reviewer Joel Wentz to explore why so many Christians are questioning their beliefs and how those questions can lead to deeper spiritual maturity rather than cynicism.Drawing from his own experience growing up in evangelical Christianity, Joel shares how wrestling with doctrines like hell, eschatology, and biblical interpretation led him through a season of deconstruction before discovering a richer understanding of historic Christian faith. Together, Dru and Joel discuss the difference between sincere faith exploration and tearing down beliefs for their own sake, the role of church culture and church hurt, why asking difficult questions is deeply biblical, and how the Nicene Creed and church history provide stability amid uncertainty.The conversation also explores theological humility, the importance of Christian tradition, the dangers of intellectual arrogance, and how pastors, churches, and Christian communities can create safe spaces for honest questions without abandoning biblical orthodoxy.Whether you're personally deconstructing your faith, walking alongside someone who is, or simply want to understand one of today's most important conversations in Christianity, this episode offers thoughtful, compassionate, and biblically grounded wisdom.Visit Joel's youtube channel (Click Here), or his Patreon (Click Here)Contact us at The Biblical Mind: Click HereWe are listener supported.

What does it really mean to be a yogi? In this episode, Kino explores the heart of yogic life beyond postures and performance. A yogi, she reminds us, is someone sincerely committed to realizing the Self and who understands that cultivating sattva (clarity, harmony, and balance) is an essential step along the path. Drawing from Patañjali's Yoga Sūtra and the teachings of the three guṇas (sattva, rajas, and tamas), Kino examines how our daily choices, from the food we eat to the words we speak and the actions we take, either cloud the mind or orient it toward truth. She also explores the eight limbs of yoga (aṣṭāṅga) as a practical framework for living a yogic life, demonstrating how each limb supports the cultivation of sattva. This episode is a reminder that being a yogi is not about perfection. It is about showing up with sincerity, choosing clarity over confusion, and returning to the practice again and again. In that sincere effort lies the heart of yoga. Ready to deepen your practice?

Conversation with Washington Post columnist and political scientist Shadi Hamid on American power, democracy, and the case for hegemony in the 21st centuryIs America a force for good in the world? It's a question that has become increasingly uncomfortable to ask—and even more uncomfortable to answer. In this episode of Due Diligence, I sit down with political scientist, columnist, and author Shadi Hamid to explore one of the central tensions of modern politics: how should we think about American power in a world where power is unavoidable? Drawing from his new book, The Case for American Power, Shadi argues that while America has often fallen short of its ideals, it remains the least bad option in a world where someone will inevitably wield power. Throughout the conversation, we wrestle with a question that sits at the heart of Due Diligence: How do we hold America accountable for its failures without losing sight of what makes the American project worth preserving? Whether you're skeptical of American power, broadly supportive of it, or deeply conflicted about both, this conversation offers a thoughtful exploration of democracy, empire, idealism, realism, and the future of the international order.(00:43) Meet Shadi Hamid(01:56) Why power must be embraced(04:14) Why America is morally superior among great powers(05:28) The Nirvana fallacy (09:28) Is American foreign policy responsive to democracy?(12:09) How Gaza became a progressive litmus test (15:13) James Baldwin's argument(17:37) Why Democratic pride in America collapsed (20:44) Pride in country vs. love of country(25:17) Why American hypocrisy is a feature, not a bug(33:50) Sincerity vs. propaganda(36:21) Why having ideals makes America different(37:53) Why presidents fold on their foreign policy promises(41:15) The Obama tragedy & disappointment(42:59) How Obama obstructed Arab democracy(45:37) The uncomfortable reason America doesn't support Arab democracy(48:02) When America chose the moral path (51:23) Why supporting democracy is in America's self-interest(54:27) Why China's rise has been overstated(59:43) The role of cultural values in democracy(01:03:50) Idealism vs. realism(01:06:35) The challenge of writing this book(01:08:54) Why America's advantage is immigrationAbout Shadi HamidShadi Hamid is a columnist at The Washington Post, where he focuses on culture, religion and foreign policy.

In our previous episode, we went deep into the history of Cabaret Voltaire and their importance to UK industrial and, latterly, dance music. Now, we follow the trail we laid therein by taking a journey through the band's extensive discography, really fleshing out how they went from a Sheffield attic in 1973 to a Patagonian field site recording lizards for David Attenborough. Along the way, we take in televangelists, voodoo, Charles Manson samples, Velvet Underground covers, a near-miss with Todd Terry, and a Taylor Swift pressing-plant mix-up that turned a forgotten ambient track into a viral curiosity decades later.Phil Eaglesham (aka P6 - ex-Stretchheads and De Salvo, current OMO frontman) returns to bestow upon us his encyclopaedic knowledge of the band and British industrial music. We start in 1974 with the lo-fi bedroom experiments of Cabaret Voltaire 1974–76, work through the rough-edged early Rough Trade EPs, the spring-reverb wilderness of Three Mantras and Voice of America, the cult monument that is Red Mecca, and the band's stylistic pivots through Hai!, 2x45, The Crackdown, Micro-Phonies, The Covenant, the Sword and the Arm of the Lord, Code, and beyond. We also pick at the more controversial late chapters, including the major-label years, the slightly-too-late acid house pivot, and Richard H. Kirk's solo reactivation of the name.Along the way, we explore the band as a video production company that happened to make music; their roles as curators and tastemakers via Double Vision; the Burroughs-and-televangelism worldview that made them frighteningly prescient about Reagan-era Christian nationalism; and their unsung debt to Black American music and dub. Chris also offers a wider reflection on what it means to lose the egoless purity of your earliest creative work as ambition and industry pressures take hold.We get deep in the weeds talking about the producers they worked with (Flood, Adrian Sherwood, John Robie, Marshall Jefferson); the labels (Rough Trade, Some Bizzare, Virgin, EMI, Mute); their collaborators and contemporaries (DAF, Wire, Throbbing Gristle, Clock DVA, Soft Cell, New Order, The Shamen); and the bands that lifted from them wholesale (Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, The Rapture, White Zombie, and a generation of Glasgow acts you've heard but can't quite place).It all culminates in us taking a closer look at Eight Crepuscule Tracks, a record that Phil thinks is their best and a very pure statement of what the band can and did achieve. We also settle upon what is perhaps the most important lesson to be gleaned from the Cabs' music: the importance of never compromising on your vision. By entering the belly of the beast and somehow remaining intact, they became one of the rare bands in this corner of music history whom nobody has a bad word for.Highlights00:00 Intro01:18 Welcome Back, Phil02:46 1974–76: Egoless Experimentation04:51 Bedroom Records06:30 Extended Play and DAF07:37 The Velvet Underground Cover08:26 Nag Nag Nag10:20 Van With a PA11:38 Three Mantras12:24 Mix-Up14:50 William Burroughs16:48 Voice of America19:35 Peter Care and Double Vision21:41 Red Mecca24:25 Encyclopaedia Bands27:36 Hai!29:36 2x45 in New York32:07 Sheffield's Family Tree32:55 Chris Watson Leaves36:16 The Crackdown42:23 Micro-Phonies46:38 Covenant, Sword and Arm of the Lord49:48 Drinking Gasoline51:45 Code54:58 Listen Up and Reissues57:12 Groovy, Laidback and Nasty1:00:15 Body and Soul1:03:56 Shadow of Fear1:04:51 The Taylor Swift Accident1:08:27 Richard Kirk's Death1:14:50 Bus Shelter Bashes1:19:58 Sincerity vs Seriousness1:25:00 Debt to Black Music1:29:00 Eight Crepuscule Tracks1:51:00 Why Everyone Loves Cab Vol1:58:36 Coming Soon: Coil?!

May we join you?" Sincerity shone in Jiho's eyes.Ko: 잠시 경계하던 그들은 따뜻한 미소로 맞아주었습니다.En: Initially cautious, the family welcomed them with warm smiles.Ko: 돌판 불고기의 맛은 감동적이었습니다.En: The taste of the doltpan bulgogi was moving.Ko: 그들은 단순히 음식을 경험하는 것 이상의 가치 있는 순간을 보냈습니다.En: They spent a moment that was more valuable than simply experiencing food.Ko: 가족과의 대화 속에서 제주도의 문화와 부처님 오신 날의 의미를 배웠습니다.En: Through conversation with the family, they learned about Jeju Island's culture and the meaning of Buddha's Birthday.Ko: 지호는 깨달았습니다. "여행에서 중요한 것은 목적지가 아니라, 여행에서 만나는 경험"이라는 것을.En: Jiho realized that the important part of travel is not the destination, but the experiences encountered along the way.Ko: 그날 밤, 세 친구는 웃음 속에서 여행의 참된 의미를 깨달았습니다.En: That night, the three friends understood the true meaning of travel amidst laughter.Ko: 제주의 밤하늘 아래, 그들의 마음은 따뜻하게 빛났습니다.En: Under the night sky of Jeju, their hearts shone warmly.

Ecclesiastes peels back the illusion of a full life without God, testing the usual suspects like money, power, pleasure, and even religion. In chapter 5, the spotlight turns to worship, where Solomon calls for reverence over routine. Entering God's presence isn't a casual stroll but sacred ground that invites humility, honesty, and awe. True worship isn't performance for others but a heart posture that recognizes who God is, echoed in the lives of figures like David, Isaiah, and Paul, who approached God with brokenness and deep reverence. Listening and speaking become the twin gates of worship. Ears are meant to be tuned for God's voice, not dulled by distraction or empty ritual, while mouths must resist careless words and transactional vows. Scripture presses for integrity where life and worship align, not a split existence. At the center stands the fear of the Lord, a steady compass that brings clarity, shapes character, and softens the heart. When that reverence takes root, even our words begin to change, shifting from sparks that burn to embers that warm and give life.

"I'm not suggesting that repression has lost its place as a fundamental defense mechanism. Repression remains central, coherent, and fundamental to the founding of the unconscious. It is what makes certain contents inaccessible to consciousness, and what we access as psychoanalysts through dreams, play, symptoms, and associations. That remains true. What I was observing, and I'm still observing more now, is something different. When I see children and adolescents that are more capable to work on a task while doing homework, and at the same time listening to music, and at the same time texting with somebody - I don't think that they are real. This is my point. I don't think they are real. This multitasking way of living is part of life today… The clinical question for us becomes this - when does this multiplicity become a symptom? When does it interfere with the capacity for depth, for intimacy, for a sustained emotional contact?  I think that this is what we need to see, to study and to differentiate in our consulting room."    Episode Description: We consider how changes in our culture may impact the individual's intrapsychic space and from that the nature of the psychoanalytic encounter. Virginia comments on the diminishing of the paternal symbolizing function and with that a change in the 'rites of passage' that adolescents traverse - now the rituals are "created by the young people themselves" as contrasted with those passed down by their elders. This, she feels, has resulted in "intimacy becoming spectacle" and for many, the analytic session is where "the construction of intimacy may begin."  She shares clinical material with us from 40 years ago and contrasts the nature of her interventions with her contemporary treatments. Now, "I appreciate the mystery in the process and that we create meaning with the patient." Virginia closes with seeing analytic treatment as "an invitation to a process of thinking that, to remain alive, must be rethought."   Our Guests: Virginia Ungar M.D., training analyst at the Buenos Aires Psychoanalytic Association (APdeBA). She specializes in child and adolescent analysis, was the Chair of the IPA's Child and Adolescent Psychoanalysis Committee (COCAP) and of the IPA Committee for Integrated Training.

Enroll now for AHRC Summer School — https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/ahrc-coursesIs sincerity even possible when the medium is rigged against it? In this episode, Hannah Smart, fiction writer, critic, and author of the debut novel Meat Puppets, joins Craig, Adam, and Emma to think through the legacy of David Foster Wallace and Mark Fisher, tracing the connections between Wallace's call for a new sincerity and Fisher's hauntological vision of a culture that forgot how to imagine its own future. Together we wrestle with the performative male, the death of boredom, the trap of self-consciousness, and whether any of us—writers, theorists, or just extremely online humans—have actually found a way out of the irony that Wallace spent his career trying to dismantle.Hannah SmartWebsite — https://hannahsmart97.wixsite.com/homePreorder Meat Puppets — https://merchtable.bigcartel.com/product/meat-puppets-by-hannah-smartLARB Essay — https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/nothing-ever-happens-mister-squishy-and-the-year-of-the-sentence-diagram/Twitter — https://x.com/fowlinghantod?s=21&t=ZAJhi-EV7b2OIyMqqtFrtwInstagram — https://www.instagram.com/howlingfantod?igsh=MTVvdmY4YmJscXJrbw%3D%3D&utm_source=qrSubstack — https://substack.com/@howlingfantod?r=64xrn&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=profileSupport the showSupport the podcast:AHRCCurrent classes at Acid Horizon Research Commons (AHRC): acidhorizonresearchcommons.comAHRC Course Archive: https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/ahrc-course-archivesSubmit your course proposal: acidhorizonresearchcommons@gmail.comMore LinksWebsite: https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcastBoycott Watkins Media: https://xenogothic.com/2025/03/17/boycott-watkins-statement/Subscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438Merch: http://www.crit-drip.comSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast platform: https://pod.link/1512615438LEPHT HAND: https://www.patreon.com/LEPHTHANDHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam's blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.com​Split Infinities (Craig's Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/​Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/

In this episode, we get real about the chaos of raising a big family. We talk about losing time for hobbies like gaming, dealing with the stress of bedtime routines, and what it's like when none of our friends have as many kids as we do. We share our advice on raising boys, from building a solid home environment to trusting Allah when things get tough. We also discuss the trap of social media fame, why keeping some good deeds private is a "cheat code" for sincerity, and how to stay grounded when the internet is always watching.

Mike Sperrazza and Mike Hoeflich open the show riding high on the Buffalo Sabres' game one playoff win over the Boston Bruins, reflecting on what it means for a city that hasn't seen postseason hockey in 14 years and why sports can unite people in a way that politics never does. From there, the Mikes turn to California's AB 2624, a bill drafted by Attorney General Rob Bonta's wife that would criminalize journalists exposing fraud in immigrant-run programs, the same kind of fraud that investigator Nick Shirley had already exposed in Minnesota. The conversation shifts to Eric Swalwell suspending his California governor campaign amid sexual misconduct allegations, with the guys unloading on the hypocrisy of politicians who built careers attacking Trump's character while apparently living very differently behind closed doors. Ilhan Omar's claim that a reported $30 million jump in her net worth was just an "accounting error" gets the same treatment. The Mikes close out with a breakdown of Trump's maximum-pressure strategy against Iran, debating whether the back-and-forth approach ever forces a true resolution, what NATO allies owe the U.S., and why the midterms in six months make the end-game question more urgent than ever.

In today's segment we discuss the New Moon in Ashwini, which marks new beginnings and a fresh perspective. Ashwini is the first of the 27 nakshatras and is often associated with healing, rejuvenation, passion, and impulse. This nakshatra is fast-moving and action-oriented, so there may be a strong urge to begin something new or make a quick decision. It's a good time for energetic intentions, but it's important to stay mindful of impulsivity.Akshaya Tritiya is coming up on April 19th, which is traditionally associated with long-term growth and lasting results. Actions taken now are believed to have staying power. Akshaya Tritya lands on a day of intensity this year, so be sure to focus on Dharma, Service, and Sincerity. We are still working with Yama Yoga (through May 11) keeping an environment of intensity. This combination can feel restrictive or frustrating, as Mars pushes forward while Saturn slows things down. It may bring pressure, delays, or a need to take responsibility and act with more discipline.On a more exciting note, Venus will enter Taurus on April 19th, which will provide stability and sensuality. This is a strong placement for Venus and can help with grounding, relationships, and focusing on what is steady and sustainable.YOUTUBE:D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras,  spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse

It felt kind. It felt loving. But over time, we've learned that constantly over-explaining, overextending, and trying to control how others perceive us is not Christlike and it's not peaceful.We talk about how easy it is to give away your power by managing other people's emotions, controlling narratives, and fearing being misunderstood. But when we look at the Savior's life, we don't see someone who chased approval. We see someone calm, restrained, honest, and rooted in His relationship with the Father.Ultimately, this episode is about anchoring your identity in Christ rather than in how well you are perceived. When we know God understands our heart, we don't have to beg to be understood by everyone else.People may misunderstand you. You may lose relationships. But if you are honest with yourself and striving to be Christlike, that is enough.00:00 – Opening music00:03 – Welcome to Endure to the End00:40 – Introducing the topic of people pleasing01:12 – How people pleasing gives away your power02:24 – Sincerity and anxiety behind people pleasing03:18 – Christ didn't over-explain Himself04:08 – Self-abandonment and emotional exhaustion05:02 – Letting people misunderstand you06:07 – Over-explaining is not Christlike07:20 – The “Let Them” mindset08:16 – Trying to control the narrative09:08 – When people hold onto their version of you10:26 – Christ was misunderstood and crucified11:22 – Being misunderstood by close relationships13:40 – Scripture: Moroni 8:1614:47 – God's love is not conditional16:26 – Two good people can still talk past each other18:48 – Being understood by God more than man19:35 – Perfect love casts out fear20:52 – Love does not equal access21:14 – Jesus loved everyone but gave access to few22:08 – Correction reveals character23:31 – Sponsor: Zunex Pest Control24:04 – Correction and humility25:22 – Don't force relationships26:20 – Habits vs personality28:24 – Scripture: Matthew 7:629:00 – Protecting your pearls30:18 – Shallow bonding vs safe connection31:38 – Seasons of independence32:24 – Not everyone belongs in your inner circle33:56 – Oversharing can strain your marriage34:52 – “Team No New Friends” season36:43 – Big rocks: spouse, kids, God38:18 – Losing people doesn't mean losing yourself40:36 – Christ as the perfect interpersonal example42:31 – You are loved44:33 – Think Celestial moment

What does it really mean to trust someone—and how intentional are you about the choices you make every day? You'll rethink trust from the inside out as Charles Feltman challenges the idea that trust is vague or emotional and reframes it as a conscious decision to make something you value vulnerable to another person's actions. You'll learn how trust works in both directions and why being trustworthy isn't enough if you're unwilling to extend trust to others. Charles shares a practical, behavior-based framework built around four key domains—care, sincerity, reliability, and competence—along with real workplace examples that show how trust can be strengthened, assessed, repaired, or rebuilt through honest conversation and clear commitments. Charles has nearly three decades of experience helping leaders and teams build, maintain, and, when necessary, restore trust. He currently runs trust-building workshops under the banner of Trust at Work® and also speaks on the subject. An overarching goal in his work is that his clients achieve what they consider to be their full potential as leaders and as human beings. He is the author of The Thin Book® of Trust: An Essential Primer for Building Trust at Work. Currently in its 3rd edition, it has sold over 100,000 copies worldwide. You'll discover: How to define trust in clear, practical termsThe four domains that determine whether trust grows or erodesWhy focusing on behavior—not character—matters mostHow leaders can repair trust after a misstepA shared language that makes trust discussable at workConnect with Charles FeltmanLinkedIn Website Insight Coaching  BooksThe Thin Book of Trust, 3rd edition: An Essential Primer for Building Trust at WorkCheck out all the episodesLeave a review on Apple PodcastsConnect with Meredith on LinkedIn

At the heart of the name 'Greg' are the letters 'R, E.'" "I'm gonna be coming strong." "Sex is too serious, let's have a little fun." "Sincerity is overrated in the boudoir." "Nobody finishes like me." Today's cast: Dan, Greg, Chris, Jeremy, and Tony. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
