I got a tour inside the San Diego Latter-day Saint temple and now I'm following up with an interview with Neal Walton who is a stake president in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in San Diego. Apparently, I was the first Christian apologist who'd ever shown up with a film crew and asked for an interview. We worked through the differences plainly. The Trinity. Whether God the Father has a physical body. Baptism for the dead. Faith and works. Exaltation versus salvation. Whether Jesus is the uncreated, eternal God. Neither of us pretended those are small, and neither of us tried to win.

The Sanhedrin, or rabbinical council, is officially petitioning heaven to reveal the Jewish messiah (Mashiach ), destroy all the enemies of Israel called “mixed multitudes,” and to construct the third temple. In Jewish eschatology, this would bring about the end of the world as we know it and the establishment of a global Judaic empire. Numerous rabbis have spoken about why and how this would be accomplished. The most powerful “mixed multitude” is the United States which must be destroyed as punishment for Rome, or Edom. The false prophet Jesus Christ must be mocked and his followers defiled. The temple must be built at all costs, including the provocation of a global war. The billions of deaths are necessary because these people are idol worshipers, i.e., Jewish leaders seek to slaughter almost everyone on the planet because their god commands it in the name of idol worship. Rabbis have said that the non-religious would be protected by their god to destroy the religious before they themselves would be enslaved. This is why they embrace every form of immorality and perversity, as duties to destroy the nonbelievers and the non-chosen. Additionally, we learn that the first and second Temples were actually destroyed by the Jews themselves, and that both Nebuchadnezzar and Titus offered numerous peace proposals to the revolting Jews before deciding to march on them with force. We also learn how the Jewish covenant with god and their divine laws were plagiarized from far older and more sophisticated cultures, from Babylon to Egypt. https://israel365news.com/420045/sanhedrin-rules-it-will-formally-petition-heaven-to-reveal-mashiach-and-rebuild-the-temple/*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

We’re taking a deep dive into Virtual, Vodou, and Fundy Temples. It’s a fascinating look at secret and highly controversial world of divergent temples and modern groups of the Restoration. Following the assassination of Joseph Smith, the temple liturgy fractured like a prism, scattering the sacred rites of the Restoration in vastly different directions. https://youtu.be/L6vQWsbxxaE Don't miss our other conversations on temples: https://gospeltangents.com/mormon_history/lds-temples/ Copyright © 2026 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved What you will discover in this presentation: Lost Rites of Mormonism: Discover early temple ordinances that the mainstream LDS Church left behind, including the Law of Adoption (sealing members to prominent church leaders rather than biological parents), baptisms for health (ritual immersion for physical healing), and the controversial Oath of Vengeance. The 1978 Breaking Point: Understand how early 20th-century alterations to the endowment and the 1978 revelation lifting the racial ban on Black members became the “last straw” for fundamentalists, who believed mainstream temples were defiled and set out to build their own sacred spaces. Inside Secret Sanctuaries of Fundy Temples: Go behind the scenes of Warren Jeffs' isolated YFZ Ranch in Eldorado, Texas, and the dramatic 2008 paramilitary raid sparked by a hoax call. Plus, hear about an exclusive interview conducted inside the temple of Christ’s Church (the Righteous Branch) in Nevada, where they still practice the multi-hour 1877 St. George endowment and perform second anointings. Decentralized and Progressive Temples: Explore Missouri Independents who reject the traditional fundamentalist racial ban to allow Black members to receive full temple ordinances, and the progressive Church of Jesus Christ in Christian Fellowship (CJCCF) & Reform Mormons. Both churches conduct virtual temple worship over Zoom using “home temples” and ordain women to the priesthood. Mormonism Meets Haitian Vodou: Learn how Haitian Latter-day Saints engage in “bricolage,” beautifully blending Mormon temple theology about the thin veil between the living and the dead with indigenous Vodou ancestral veneration.

What is dispensationalism? What is the alternate view, covenant theology? Many Christians don’t understand why dispensationalism is being attacked with such vigor; perhaps those doing the attacking don’t either but the prevailing mood today is, there is no rapture or at least not one that takes the Christians out of the world before judgment. And Israel? Well, they aren’t even in the picture and what’s more, that’s not Israel over in, well, Israel. On today’s SUFTT, Mary starts with biblical interpretive systems of prophecy and from there expands on the really big picture of dispensationalism and how it beautifully fits the historical-grammatical-literal interpretation of Scripture. Are we seeing the church age wrap up and the Day of the Lord commence? We look at the history of the Jews, the Temples that have come and gone and why; and why the rapture is as important to us as it would be to Israel. A full hour of fascinating bunny trails.

Interview by Ali Williams There are bad weeks, and then there are weeks where the rehearsal studio you spent a year building burns for 4 days, TEMPLES ON MARS guitarist and vocalist James Donaldson joined HEAVY's Ali Williams somewhat later than originally planned, although his excuse was considerably better than forgetting to check the calendar. Back in the end of June, the London building housing the band's newly completed rehearsal space and studio went up in flames, bringing 150 firefighters and 25 fire engines to the scene and taking 4 days to extinguish. Nobody was hurt, which remains the only part of that story worth celebrating, but the timing was particularly brutal given TEMPLES ON MARS had only just finished creating the space in the first place. Building their own headquarters had been a practical answer to the expensive and restrictive reality of London rehearsal rooms. After spending the better part of a year getting everything operational, the band finally had somewhere they could rehearse and record on their own terms. After having a rehearsal there on the Wednesday night, by the following Friday , they were receiving photographs of the entire building burning.Full interview heavymag.com.auBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.
What happened to the Latter Day Saint movement after it fractured? We discuss the fascination history on RLDS & Bickertonite views about temples. While Brigham Young led his followers West to build physical temples in Utah, multiple restoration branches took a completely different path—formally rejecting Nauvoo theology, secret endowments, and polygamy https://youtu.be/-tjIZUJcOqo Don't miss our other conversations on temples: https://gospeltangents.com/mormon_history/lds-temples/ Copyright © 2026 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved We dive into the fascinating, competitive, and highly diverse world of non-LDS temples. Discover how the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (now Community of Christ) built the massive Auditorium in Independence, Missouri—which historian John Hamer argues was secretly designed as a Kirtland-style temple—before dedicating their famous spiral temple in 1984 under Wallace B. Smith. We also explore: RLDS & Bickertonite Views About Temples The Battle for the Temple Lot: How Granville Hedrick’s followers returned to Jackson County in 1867 and purchased the original plot where 24 temples were once planned. The Great Depression’s Forgotten Temple: Why Otto Fetting's attempt to construct a Greek-style temple on the Temple Lot in the 1930s left a massive excavation hole—and why former President Harry Truman asked to have it filled in. The Bickertonite Chasm: Why William Bickerton abandoned Brigham Young’s church after polygamy was announced in 1852, choosing to reject physical temples entirely while embracing radical inclusivity—including ordaining deaconesses in the 1860s and calling an African-American apostle. Tongues and the “Smith Corpus”: A fascinating discussion on why groups that rejected Joseph Smith's later revelations (like the Doctrine and Covenants) successfully preserved early Kirtland Pentecostal gifts like speaking in tongues, while the mainstream LDS Church largely phased them out.

Welcome to Day 2916 of Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. Day 2916 – Theology Thursday – Ancient Near Eastern Religions versus the God of the Bible Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2916 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2916 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Our current series of Theology Thursday lessons is written by theologian and teacher John Daniels. I have found that his lessons are short, easy to understand, doctrinally sound, and applicable to all who desire to learn more of God's Word. John's lessons can be found on his website, theologyinfive.com. Ancient Near Eastern Religions versus the God of the Bible. The religions of the Ancient Near East form a wide landscape of connected myths, rituals, and divine hierarchies that shaped the worldview of early civilizations. Their gods rose and fell in power, reacted emotionally to events, and relied on worshipers to sustain them. These beliefs created a religious environment built on cycles, fragility, and mutual dependence. The biblical portrayal of Yahweh stands in clear contrast. Scripture presents a God who is self-sufficient, unchanging, and sovereign over creation. Examining these differences clarifies the uniqueness of biblical faith within its ancient setting and helps modern readers understand how Israel's worldview developed in the midst of nations with very different assumptions about the divine realm. The first segment is: The Cyclical Nature of ANE Deities ANE religions anchored their divine stories in the rhythms of the natural world. Gods were believed to participate in the same patterns that shaped human experience. Their power rose and fell with the seasons, crops, weather, and the environment. This worldview created a theological system where even major deities could weaken, die, or disappear, only to return when the cycles of nature renewed themselves. The myths surrounding Inanna and Ishtar reveal this worldview clearly. Their descent into the underworld and eventual return mirrored the cycle of barrenness and renewal that governed agricultural life. Their stories did not present beings who transcended nature but ones who were bound to it. Their vitality could pause or fail, only to be restored when the environment shifted. Egyptian religion expressed a similar idea through the Osiris myth. His murder and restoration aligned with the yearly flooding of the Nile, which created fertile soil for crops. The story served as a theological explanation for agricultural renewal. Osiris did not stand above the cycles of life. He represented them. This pattern appears again and again in ANE pantheons, where divine life and natural life were deeply intertwined. The second segment is: Symbiosis Between Gods and Humans The relationship between the gods and humanity in the ANE was shaped by mutual dependence. The gods depended on humans for food, offerings, honor, and the upkeep of temples. Humans depended on the gods for basic stability, agricultural success, and protection. Religion functioned as a system that maintained cosmic order by ensuring both sides received what they needed. Baal worship in Canaan demonstrates this dynamic. Baal's power and presence were tied to the devotion of his followers. If offerings ceased or rituals were neglected, worshipers feared drought, famine, and ecological collapse. Ugaritic texts describe Baal's strength rising and falling in connection with seasonal struggles against Mot, the god of death. The fortunes of the people depended on Baal's vitality, and Baal's vitality depended on the people. This pattern stretched across Mesopotamia as well. Temples functioned as divine households where priests fed, clothed, and cared for the gods. Worship was not about relationship but maintenance. A god who was not sustained properly could weaken, suffer, or lose influence. These beliefs shaped the ancient expectation that the divine and human worlds were locked in an ongoing exchange of needs and services. The third segment is: The God of the Bible: Transcendent, Stable, and Self-Sufficient The biblical portrait of God stands outside the cycles and limitations that characterized ANE religion. Yahweh does not depend on human worship to sustain His power. He does not rise or fall in strength. His nature remains constant, and His authority extends beyond the boundaries of the natural world. Scripture presents Him as the Creator who governs nature rather than one who participates in its fluctuations. Malachi 3 verse six captures this distinction by declaring that God does not change. The prophets frequently challenge the idea that God requires food or ritual maintenance. Psalm 50 portrays God as the owner of all creation rather than a deity who needs sacrifices for sustenance. Isaiah mocks the absurdity of idols that must be carried because they cannot stand on their own. These passages highlight the difference between the dependent gods of the nations and the self-sufficient God of Israel. Covenant reinforces this distinction. When God binds Himself to Abraham, Moses, or David, His promises flow from His own character and faithfulness rather than human ability to maintain Him. His stability provides a foundation for trust that no ANE god could offer, because their identity and power were subject to the very world they governed. The fourth segment is: Supreme Monotheism and the Divine Council The biblical worldview acknowledges a populated spiritual realm, but it does not portray that realm as harmonious or consistently loyal. Scripture presents a divine council, yet this council reflects a world marked by rebellion and spiritual conflict rather than unity. This stands in sharp contrast with ANE pantheons, where deities had fixed jurisdictions and stable roles. Psalm 82 reveals that members of the divine council failed in their appointed tasks. God confronts them for injustice, corruption, and the oppression of the nations they were meant to govern. Their rebellion is a verdict on their unfaithfulness. The psalm ends with God declaring their coming judgment, making clear that divine beings are not beyond accountability. Genesis 6 describes another rebellion in which the sons of God violate the boundaries God established and bring corruption to humanity. This event shaped the Second Temple Jewish worldview and influenced New Testament writers who saw it as a catastrophic turning point in the history of spiritual conflict. These beings did not act out of ignorance but out of deliberate defiance. The Babel event introduces yet another layer of supernatural rebellion. Deuteronomy 32 verse eight and nine describe God dividing the nations and assigning them under the authority of lesser divine beings. These beings later led their nations into idolatry and spiritual deception, choosing loyalty to their own agendas rather than to the Most High. Their failures explain the origin of the false gods and territorial powers that Israel confronted throughout the Old Testament. The biblical writers describe a supernatural realm that is real, complex, and deeply fractured. God alone stands as the supreme Creator. The other divine beings are not competitors to Him, but they are capable of disobedience, corruption, and rebellion. Unlike ANE pantheons defined by competition between gods of similar rank, the Bible presents defiance of the Most High as the central spiritual crisis in human history. The fifth segment is: Stability Versus Variability in the Divine Realm The gods of the ANE were often unpredictable. Their conflicts explained storms, disasters, and political upheavals. Their emotional reactions shaped the lives of their worshipers, who lived in fear of offending them or failing to provide proper care. This instability was a natural consequence of a pantheon filled with beings shaped by the same vulnerabilities as humans. Yahweh's actions are presented differently. His behavior is anchored in His covenantal character. His judgments are consistent with His purposes rather than expressions of divine mood. His promises stand firm even when humans falter. By presenting God as trustworthy and stable, Scripture establishes a theological foundation that separates Israel's faith from the religions around it. The sixth segment is: The Purpose of Humanity: Servants or Imagers ANE creation stories consistently portray humans as laborers created to meet the needs of the gods. In the Enuma Elish, humans are formed from the blood of Kingu after a divine rebellion. Their function is to relieve the gods of work by maintaining temples and performing essential services. Human worth is connected to usefulness, not intrinsic dignity. The biblical account offers an entirely different vision. Humans are created

Temples and the Tabernacle were reminders to the Israelites of Eden (which was the first Temple). Jesus' (the true Temple) death has bought his children back to Eden and we are now Priests in the Temple of the Holy Spirit.
Host Robert Walter sits down with Chaim Dauermann to explore how God communicates through one of the Bible's most profound prophetic books. As they examine Isaiah in light of Tisha B'Av—the Jewish day of mourning for the destruction of the Temples and other tragedies in Jewish history—they discuss how God's warnings, compassion, and promises point beyond judgment to redemption.Whether you're familiar with Isaiah or reading it for the first time, this conversation offers fresh insight into one of Scripture's most powerful messages.Learn more about Chosen People Ministries and request your free chapter of our president Mitch Glaser's new book, "Jewish Missions in the Shadow of the Holocaust," at:
In the spring of the year 73, after Jerusalem had already fallen to Roman forces, 960 Jews atop a desert fortress chose death by their own hand rather than surrender. We know the story because of Josephus, the 1st-century Jewish historian and former rebel commander who turned chronicler of the very revolt he had once been a part of. Yesterday was Tisha b'Av, which commemorates the destruction of the two Temples. Josephus records another catastrophe: Masada, the last stand of the Sicarii, the most militant faction of the Jewish rebels, against Rome, and a mass suicide that Jewish tradition has argued over ever since. Was it heroism? Was it madness? Should the Jews of Masada instead have followed in the path chosen by Rabbi Yohanan ben Zakkai and the sages at Yavneh—accommodating the enemy to preserve the Torah? This week's podcast is an episode of The Pillars, a series produced by the Lobel Center for Jewish Classical Education and hosted by Rabbi Mitchell Rocklin. In this episode, Rabbi Rocklin takes up Josephus's account directly—what it asks of us, what the rabbis made of it, and what it has come to mean for the modern state of Israel. The episode first aired this past March, but its questions are the questions Jews are reflecting on during this week in the liturgical calendar, about the demands of Jewish sovereignty and God's providence in history.
Former LSU standout, NBA veteran, and professional basketball player Johnny O'Bryant III joins the Krewe to discuss his unique connections to Japan, from playing for the Ibaraki Robots in Japan's B.League to founding Noir Caesar, his own manga publishing company. We explore his experiences living and competing in Japan, how a lifelong passion for manga grew into a business, and what it takes to balance life as a professional athlete and entrepreneur. It's a conversation about basketball, Japanese culture, creativity, and chasing passions both on and off the court. ------ About the Krewe ------ The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

In this powerful interview on Just Tap In with Emilio Ortiz, Geoffrey Hoppe opens the channel for Adamus St. Germain to explore what humanity may be moving through as consciousness approaches what he describes as the “7% threshold.” From the rapid acceleration of AI and the reordering of human consciousness to the emergence of an entirely new form of sentience, this episode asks what becomes possible when humanity moves beyond survival, fixed identity, and the limitations of the mind. Adamus shares that the changes unfolding now may not be leading toward collapse, but toward a profound shift in how reality itself is experienced.✦ Join Emilio's Private Community – The Deep Dive Membership | https://iamemilioortiz.com/the-deep-dive/The conversation also moves through the mystery of parallel Earth realities, the ancient codes carried forward from Atlantis, the role of wisdom in becoming a true creator, and why so many people say they want freedom while unconsciously choosing a more comfortable version of the same prison. Adamus reframes this moment not as the collapse of humanity, but as a passage out of survival consciousness and into a more abundant relationship with energy, love, health, creativity, and self-knowing. This is a transmission about releasing fear, listening beyond the mind, allowing the wisdom of the soul to return, and recognizing that the world may not be falling apart at all—it may be reorganizing into something humanity has never experienced before.___________________PODCAST CHAPTERS00:00 - Adamus St Germain Intro3:20 - How to Deepen Your Connection With the Soul5:28 - Curiosity: The Doorway Beyond the Human Mind8:30 - The New Metaphysics of Fields, Energy & Creation10:29 - The Critical Choice Humanity Is Facing in 202613:42 - Two Earths & the End of Survival Consciousness15:24 - How Geoffrey's Channeling Process Has Evolved18:51 - The Hidden Life of Saint Germain21:22 - Saint Germain's Mystery School Training 27:15 - What the Ascended Masters Are Saying About Earth30:35 - Why Alien Interference Is Being Blocked33:14 - Atlantis, the Temples of Tien & the Crystal Prison35:49 - The Realization That Liberated Saint Germain38:06 - Why Most Humans Are Afraid of True Freedom43:22 - How Close Are We to the 7 Percent Light Threshold?45:52 - Eucatastrophe: The Joyful Event That Changes Everything53:10 - Saint Germain's Experiences Inside the Great Pyramid58:13 - The Surprising Connection Between the Great Pyramid & AI1:03:24 - Why the Wisdom of Your Soul Is Returning Now1:06:00 - The Greatest Initiation Every Master Must Face1:09:30 - The Coming Split Between the Old Earth & New Earth1:14:10 - Adamus' Personal Message for Emilio1:17:55 - Staying Balanced in an Age of Extremism1:21:12 - The Government Disclosure of Non-Human Intelligence1:23:59 - What the Soul Knows That Humans Forget1:26:03 - What Will Surprise Us Most About the Future?___________________Guest: Geoffery Hoppe (Channeling Adamus Saint-Germain)✦ Website | https://www.crimsoncircle.com/✦ Events | https://www.crimsoncircle.com/Events✦ 21 Shaumbra Realizations | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRtpk8kkUno✦ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/crimsoncircleofficial/✦ Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/TheCrimsonCircle Host: Emilio Ortiz✦ IG | https://www.instagram.com/iamemilioortiz/✦ Subscribe to Channel | https://www.youtube.com/EmilioOrtizSpecial Offerings Supporting the Show:✦ Make a One-Time or Recurring Donation on PayPal
On today's page, Chullin 84, the rabbis continue their discussion of the laws surrounding food and sustenance. Recorded around a barbecue table in upstate New York, this special summer episode with Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin and producer Josh Kross reflects on Tisha B'Av, exploring the destruction of the Temples, the enduring lesson of Kamtza and Bar Kamtza, and why the ultimate redemption of the Jewish people remains incomplete. What are we really mourning on Tisha B'Av? Listen and find out.
As the Jewish people observe Tisha B'Av and mourn the destruction of the Temples in Jerusalem, we reflect on their ancient, unbroken connection to the Holy City. We also confront a growing falsehood promoted by online talking heads: the claim that Jesus was not Jewish.Scripture leaves no room for confusion—Jesus was born Jewish, lived Jewish, worshiped as a Jew, and was called the King of the Jews. Christians must stop outsourcing their theology to agenda driven podcasters and return to the Bible.
The Valley of the temples in Agrigento, Sicily, is an archeological area containing the remains of seven ancient Greek temples, in varying states of conservation. Located along a ridge with breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea in the distance, it represents one of the world's most important collections of Ancient Greek architecture.
Tonight begins the fast of Tisha B'av, the anniversary of the destructions of the Temples in Jerusalem. In this edition, Rabbi Dobrusin considers the potential meanings of a truly remarkable story told in the Talmud about the destruction. What can we learn from this story?
Le sauvetage des temples égyptiens est une aventure archéologique connue surtout pour lʹincroyable chantier lié aux déplacements des temples dʹAbou Simbel. Le sauvetage de Philae sera, lui aussi, spectaculaire ! Pour en parler, Johanne Dussez reçoit Audrey Eller, Maître assistante de lʹUnité dʹEgyptologie et copte de lʹUniversité de Genève. Elle dirige également un chantier de fouilles à Héou en haute Egypte.
What does Tisha B'Av ask of us after October 7? Tisha B'Av is the saddest date on the Jewish calendar, but Rachel Goldberg-Polin argues it also offers hope and opportunity. In a conversation shaped by the personal and collective trauma of October 7, she explains why Jewish tradition gathers centuries of loss onto a single day, why it compels us to look inward, and how mourning is meant to become the first step toward repair. Rachel's suggested reading: This Is Real and You Are Completely Unprepared: The Days of Awe as a Journey of Transformation by Rabbi Alan Lew ___ Call Me Back is made possible by our subscribers.

Greetings Saints. This is the week that pivots. There is one week in the Jewish calendar that moves from mourning to comfort in the space of just 48 hours. It begins with Tisha B'Av, the fast and memorial connected to the destruction of both Temples and other tragedies in Jewish history. But beloved, mourning is not the final word. The very next Sabbath brings Shabbat Nachamu, the Sabbath of Comfort, where Yah declares through Isaiah: "Comfort ye, comfort ye My people." In this teaching, we look at the Biblical calendar signal for the week of July 20–26, the Vaetchanan Torah portion, Isaiah 40:1–26, the Seven Weeks of Consolation, and the comfort we receive through Yeshua Messiah. Yah has not given up on Yasharal. And dear saint, He has not given up on you. Scripture references: Isaiah 40:1–26; Deuteronomy 3:23–7:11; Deuteronomy 6:4–9; Romans 11; Matthew 3:3; Mark 1:3; Luke 3:4; John 1:23; Matthew 10:22; Matthew 24:13; Mark 13:13.
Dans les années 60, la construction du haut barrage dʹAssouan menaçait dʹeffacer à tout jamais des temples vieux de plusieurs millénaires. Mais cʹétait sans compter sur une incroyable opération internationale… Pour raconter lʹhistoire de ce sauvetage, Johanne Dussez sʹentretient avec Audrey Eller, Maître assistante de lʹUnité dʹEgyptologie et copte de lʹUniversité de Genève. Elle dirige également un chantier de fouilles à Héou en haute Egypte.
What role do Japan Societies and Japan-America Societies play in strengthening the relationship between the United States and Japan? In this episode, the Krewe sits down with Dr. Joshua Walker, former President and CEO of the Japan Society in New York, to discuss U.S.-Japan relations, the unique impact organizations of all sizes can have at every level of cultural exchange, and why local interactions remain essential to the partnership between both nations. We also explore what the future may hold for U.S.-Japan relations and how individuals and communities can help shape it. ------ About the Krewe ------ The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

In this solemn and timely teaching, we explore Tisha B'Av — the ninth of Av — and its connection to Yeshua's tears over Yerushalayim. Drawing from Luke 19, Matthew 23, Lamentations, Jewish tradition, and the historic destruction of the Temples, this episode calls believers to recover lament as a necessary and righteous discipline of covenant faith. This is Part 1 of a two-part teaching leading into Tisha B'Av.
Frank and Dan explore why modern Mormon temple interiors resemble upscale hotel lobbies rather than awe-inspiring sacred spaces. They compare Mormon architecture with historic cathedrals, discuss the church's increasing architectural homogenization, and argue that Mormon aesthetics have become more corporate than spiritual. We also tease organizing a TGIA group visit when the renovated Salt Lake Temple opens to the public. Also this week: Turkey bars an LGBTQ+ cruise from coming ashore, Indiana's lieutenant governor declares America a Christian nation, the Church of England stumbles into a conversion therapy controversy, a new poll reveals which religions Americans like (and really don't like), a MAGA preacher insists Jesus had a six-pack, and a Catholic hospital sale restores access to reproductive healthcare previously blocked by church doctrine.

The southern Sicilian city of Agrigento was founded in 580 BCE by a group of Greek colonists from the nearby town of Gela with the name "Akragas." It quickly became one of Magna Grecia's most important cities and eventually defeated a Carthaginian army at the Battle of Himera in 480BCE. To celebrate the victory, a series of majestic temples were built along a nearby and known today as "The Valley of the Temples."

I remember trying on clothes with my mom in a Calvert's store in Needham, MA (big in New England back in the day) and feeling nauseous and overwhelmed every time we walked in. I couldn't explain it. The lighting, the energy, something about that space just didn't sit right in my body. This happened a lot growing up. I'd beg my mom to pick me up early from certain friends' homes, and at others I never wanted to leave because the energy felt so good. I sensed it young and could never put my finger on why. Have you ever walked into a space and just felt something, without knowing why. A church, a temple, an old building, maybe even a room in your own house that never felt right? My friend Dr. Lydia De Leon has spent her whole life studying that feeling, and it turns out there is real science behind it. She has a PhD in sacred architecture, she's measured the energy fields inside ancient temples all over the world, and what she shares is absolutely stunning. We get into sacred geometry, why your bedroom might be sitting over an energetic disturbance without you knowing it, and the five levels she uses to bring a body or a building back into harmony. The story about her own health crisis in a brand new apartment is wild (and honestly explained so much for me about my own space over the years). Oh, and Dr. Lydia is also leading a retreat this fall inside the gorgeous living temples of Damanhur in Italy, hand carved with no machines. She's sharing a special code for 400 euros off! Check it out here and if you're feeling the pull use the code YOU. With so much love, Julie xo Key Topics Sacred geometry as the language of the universe The scientific basis of temple design and energy fields The five levels of personal and environmental harmony The role of sacred sites in healing and consciousness Practical ways to activate and work with temple energies About Dr. Lydia De Leon Dr. Lydia De Leon is the founder of the Geophilia Institute and author of The Power of Sacred Location. She holds a PhD in sacred architecture and geobiology, and has spent over a decade measuring the energy of ancient and modern temples around the world.

In this episode of Hunger for Wholeness, Ilia Delio continues her conversation with Robert Geraci on the ethical future of technology, the possibility of a global mind, and the stories we need to tell if civilization is to flourish. Together, they ask how AI might help us build shared spaces of learning, dialogue, and human connection rather than deepen division, surveillance, and algorithmic isolation.Ilia imagines noospheric classrooms and a global heart, where technology becomes a medium for shared values across cultures, religions, and planetary communities. Geraci reflects on the need for humility, public goods, meaningful work, and stories that draw us toward a better future rather than trap us in conflict, wealth, and power.Later in the episode, Geraci discusses his book Future-Proofing Humanity, exploring existential risk, technological culture, the Epic of Gilgamesh, and the importance of civilization as an unfinished project. Rather than fearing technology itself, Ilia and Robert invite us to ask what kind of humanity our technologies are calling us to become.ABOUT ROBERT GERACIRobert M Geraci is the Knight Distinguished Chair for the Study of Religion & Culture at Knox College.
