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.

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.

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.

The believers at Corinth believe that since they have decided to follow Jesus and he has given them freedom from the bondage of sin, they can do whatever they want. In their culture, just like ours, temptation is all around them, everywhere they go. Temples with prostitutes are seen from any direction, meat sacrificed to idols is being sold in restaurants and marketplaces, and with their freedom they have in Jesus, they tend to give into temptations and sin. Paul says, “Yes, you have freedom in Christ, but not all freedoms are beneficial. The King James Version says they are not all expedient and edifying. Yes, we have been set free from sin by Jesus, but there are other people to think about, and this is what Paul is saying. Don't let your freedom cause others to sin!

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.

Many Christians assume the Old Testament is primarily about rules, restrictions, sacrifices, and barriers between God and humanity.But what if those things existed for the exact opposite reason?In this episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb explores one of the Bible's most important themes: God's relentless desire to dwell with His people. From Eden to the Tabernacle, from the Temple to Jesus, Scripture tells the story of a God who continually moves toward humanity—even after humanity moves away from Him.Why did God's presence become dangerous after Genesis 3? What were priests, sacrifices, and purity laws actually accomplishing? And how does Jesus restore what was lost in Eden?Join us as we trace the story of God's presence across Scripture and discover why the Old Testament may not be what you think it is.#bible #podcast #jesus #faith #christ #christianeducation #christian #oldtestament #biblestudy #devotional #scholar #god Study deeper with GlossaHouse:

Send us Fan MailThe world feels like it's accelerating, and not always in a good way. Wars flare up, families strain, truth gets treated like a preference, and technology races ahead faster than our ability to process it. When you feel that tension, it's easy to ask, “Are these the signs of the Second Coming?” I take that question head-on, and I frame the signs the way the Savior does: not as a code to crack for a date, but as an invitation to prepare with faith.I walk through several major “signs of the times” with a gospel lens, including the Restoration of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the gathering of Israel through missionary work and the covenant path, increasing wickedness and the rising cost of standing for eternal truth, and “wars and rumors of wars” that show up both in nations and inside our own souls. We also talk about natural disasters, the earth “groaning,” and why crisis can either harden us or turn us toward Christ. And because we live in an age of information overload and AI-generated confusion, I highlight spiritual deception and why personal revelation and discernment aren't optional anymore.Finally, I share one of the most hopeful signs happening quietly across the world: temples. Temples aren't just buildings, they're a call to become a covenant people ready to meet the Lord. If you've been watching headlines more than you've been watching your heart, this is your reset.

Apocalyptic AI and the Stories Technology Tells with Robert Geraci

In this episode of Hunger for Wholeness, Ilia Delio speaks with scholar Robert Geraci about apocalyptic AI, robotics, transhumanist hope, and the religious stories embedded in technological imagination. Geraci traces how his study of robotics led him to notice strikingly religious themes in the writings of engineers and futurists: immortality, resurrection, salvation, and the future transformation of humanity.Together, Ilia and Robert explore the mid-20th-century roots of computer intelligence, the shadow of world war, and the deep eschatological hopes and fears that shaped early conversations about machines, minds, and human destiny. They consider how figures such as Hans Moravec, Ray Kurzweil, J. B. S. Haldane, Julian Huxley, Norbert Wiener, and Alan Turing reveal the religious imagination at work within technological culture.Later in the episode, the conversation turns toward technology, ecology, and responsibility. Rather than treating technology as the enemy, Ilia and Robert ask how human beings might reclaim the deeper narratives, values, and forms of belonging needed to guide technological development toward the flourishing of the whole Earth community.ABOUT ROBERT GERACIRobert M Geraci is the Knight Distinguished Chair for the Study of Religion & Culture at Knox College.

“Architecture should bring a true sensation of wellbeing. We were really lucky to experience that as children, and now as architects, we try to bring all that we learned into our practice.”Salwa and Selma Mikou are the founders of Paris-based Mikou Architecture. Born in Fez, Morocco and educated in Paris, they have spent the last two decades reimagining the relationship between the built environment and the cultural landscape.After honing their craft under two of the world's most iconic architects, Jean Nouvel and Renzo Piano, they founded their own studio. For them, architecture is a living interaction with landscape and what they call the Atlas of Resonance, interpreting the hidden layers of a territory, geology, memory, and craft. It is a philosophy that rejects the generic, seeking instead to weave together technological innovation with local materials.

There is a theological thread woven throughout Scripture that many Christians have never fully traced—a theme that stretches from Eden to eternity, from the wilderness tabernacle to the New Jerusalem. It is the story of God dwelling with humanity.In this episode, we explore the "Seven Temples" of the Bible and uncover how each temple reveals something profound about God's character, humanity's rebellion, Christ's redemptive work, and the ultimate purpose of history itself. From the Ark of the Covenant and the glory of Solomon's Temple to the New Testament believer and the future temple yet to come, this conversation brings together prophecy, theology, typology, and the gospel into one sweeping biblical narrative. If you enjoy seeing how the whole Bible connects, this episode will be deeply rewarding.To discuss today's topic, we are joined by Sam Miles, President of the Living Faith Bible Institute and a Biblical Studies instructor at LFBI.For more information, please follow the link to read the notes for Episode 272.Visit http://lfbi.org/learnmore

Send us Fan MailWhen your “instruments” fail in the clouds, your body can swear you're level while you're actually turning into danger. I open with a real C-130 cockpit moment where two attitude indicators disagreed and the only way to survive was to trust the right reference. Then I connect that to modern spiritual life: identity confusion, anxiety, outrage culture, distraction, and dopamine addiction can make truth feel optional and emotions feel like facts.The anchor is a warning and a promise from Doctrine and Covenants: you will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but if you are prepared, you will not fear. Preparation looks like standing in holy places and refusing to be moved. We talk about why holy places are more than temples (though temple covenants matter deeply) and how your home can become a holy place through prayer, scripture, Sabbath worship, better media standards, and protecting the Spirit at the center of family life.I also share true examples of people who stood firm under pressure, from the Danish rescue of Jews in World War II to the 2,000 stripling warriors who were spiritually ready before the battle began. You'll leave with a simple checklist to audit what spirit shapes your mind and your home, plus a direct challenge: remove one spiritually toxic influence, create one new holy habit, and turn your home into a sanctuary of peace.

The New Covenant isn't a restoration of ancient temple rituals or a performance-based "covenant path," but a relationship with the person of Jesus who already finished the work for us. When He sat down at the right hand of God, He ended the "waiting game" of religious worthiness and opened the veil for everyone to enter His rest. --The Unveiling Mormonism podcast pulls back the curtain on Mormon history, culture and doctrine.

Email us at podcast@pursueGOD.org.Donate Now--Are We There Yet? Finding Rest in the New CovenantMany of us grew up feeling like we were on a spiritual road trip that never quite reached its destination. In the backseat of faith, we constantly ask, "Are we there yet? Am I worthy enough? Have I done enough?" For those coming from a background in Latter-day Saint (LDS) theology, this feeling is often amplified by the teaching that we live in a "restoration" of ancient patterns—new temples, new rituals, and a "covenant path" that can feel more like a performance-based contract than a relationship.However, the book of Hebrews offers a "game-changer" for anyone exhausted by the waiting game. The Word of God shows us that the destination isn't a future point of perfection we reach through our own effort; the destination has already been reached in the person of Jesus Christ.From Contracts to CovenantsIn our daily lives, we understand contracts: "I do this, you do that, and if one of us fails, the deal is off." It is purely transactional. A covenant, in the biblical sense, is relational—like a marriage. It is God saying, "I will be your God, and you will be my people."While many religious systems turn the "covenant path" into a contract—where blessings are earned through tithing, temple attendance, and dietary codes—the New Covenant flips the script. It isn't about what you do to stay on the path; it's about what Jesus did to become the path.The Fulfillment of Every PromiseThe Old Testament is a series of layers building toward a climax. Jesus didn't just add another layer; He fulfilled them all:The Noahic Covenant: God promised never to destroy the earth again, symbolized by a "war bow" pointed toward heaven. Jesus took the arrow of that judgment upon Himself.The Abrahamic Covenant: God promised a "seed" to bless all nations. Jesus is that promised seed.The Mosaic Covenant (The Law): This was a conditional covenant that Israel failed to keep. The sacrificial system acted like a "credit card statement"—it showed the debt of sin but could never pay it off.The Sacrifice That Ended All SacrificesHebrews 10:12 provides a direct challenge to the idea that we need to restore ancient temple rituals: "But our High Priest offered himself to God as a single sacrifice for sins, good for all time. Then he sat down."In the ancient Tabernacle, there were no chairs because a priest's work was never finished. The fact that Jesus sat down is a beautiful, definitive statement. If His sacrifice was good for all time, we no longer need animal sacrifices or modern temples with veils. When Jesus died, the veil was torn, signifyng that the "waiting game" is over.Living in the "Already and Not Yet"We still live in a broken world where we struggle with sin and sickness. Theologians call this the "already and not yet." Our sins are already forgiven and the debt is paid, but the world is not yet fully made new.The difference for a believer is the move from anxiety to assurance. We aren't waiting to see if our check clears at the bank of heaven; the check has already cleared. We are simply waiting for the final statement. You don't need a temple; through the Holy Spirit, you are the temple. You don't need to earn your way; Jesus is the way. It's time to step out of the car and enter His rest.

What if the Appalachian Mountains are hiding ancient places built for something far darker than history will admit? In this episode, Tony sits down with Bo Kennedy to explore the unsettling possibility of hidden Nephilim temples buried deep in Appalachia, where legends of giants, serpent mounds, cryptids, witchcraft, and spiritual warfare still seem to echo through the mountains. Bo shares the real research and personal experiences that inspired his novel, Army of God: Terror by Night, a story rooted in biblical warfare, ancient curses, forgotten mounds, and the fight between prayer and the powers of darkness. As the conversation unfolds, the mystery of Appalachia becomes more than folklore. It becomes a warning about what may still be hidden in the land, and what it means to stand firm in Christ when the darkness pushes back.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.
