What does it look like to struggle well? Why is the modern church so scared of doubts and questions? Is a CoViD 19 vaccine the mark of the beast? Can the Bible be full of contradictions and be inerrant? https://t.co/2NlXXKZ8zB

In this episode of Deeply Curious, we discuss how we all have limitations and capacities in our life and the benefits of creating margin. Learning how to be a better human is a never-ending process. https://t.co/22hEwHVPOY

90’s parents: “Son, what would Jesus do? Here, wear this bracelet so you never forget.”

90’s kids now: “Dad... is this really truly what Jesus would be doing?”

after everyone else left the hotel room he asked me a question, I turned to answer but midsentence I was surprised with an eye-level view of Dennis Rodman's penis

Without any context, tell me the punchline of your weirdest celebrity run-in.

[Cody Jensen @Cody_Jensen]

If we only follow our desires with no intention other than believing that our desires lead to freedom, who do we end up becoming? Where do we find our identity? If our identity is rooted in desire, who are we truly if desires are ever-changing and never-ending?

People who are turning into love don’t need all the spin, because they aren’t looking for applause or validation from others any longer. They’ve experienced giving away God’s love as its own reward.

[Cody Jensen @Cody_Jensen]

I have learned over the years that in order to live well I have to question everything I believe. That's the only way to figure out WHY I believe what I believe outside of what I was taught, what is culturally acceptable, and who others expect me to be.

[Cody Jensen @Cody_Jensen]

We openly discuss these questions in the newest epsiode of Reflections On Now. Available now wherever you get your podcasts.

Hypocrisy has infected the western church. Not only in many spiritual ways, which are harder to see but in America it has also turned political. Too many pastors, churches, and self-proclaimed Christians have aligned themselves so closely to a political agenda that (1/4)

America is officially post-Christian. The largest religious affiliation is now those who check "None" and are done with organized religion. What is causing this? Is it a problem or an opportunity? Is the Church to blame? How do we move forward and learn to struggle well? (3/4)

[Cody Jensen @Cody_Jensen]

@TheHogeybear Exactly. Reading the Bible as absolute truth in the "fundamentalist" sense is one of the, if not the biggest, root cause of mass suffering and oppression of humans. To believe that it is absolute truth and to act with certainty is how people murder in the name of "god".

I recently asked Sarah how I can better ally with her.

"You believe we are equal but in the end, you ultimately believe that you hold the swing vote. But why do you hold the swing vote? Only because America and the Church taught you that because you're a man you do."

[Cody Jensen @Cody_Jensen]

@TheHogeybear Jesus quite clearly broke these cultural norms. His first appearance after the resurrection was to a woman and instructed her to tell the men. That was no accident. The first apostle of Jesus was a woman.

[Cody Jensen @Cody_Jensen]

@TheHogeybear The Bible is a collection of poems, essays, letters, and fictional stories that tell a larger truth. It is Art. It has to be read and interpreted as such. The verse you pointed to was a letter to Timothy with instructions on how to organize his church in Ephesus.

In the newest episode of Deeply Curious, we discuss this and ask what would our society look like if we allowed women to be who they inherently are? How much better would we be if women could occupy the wild space they were created to inhabit?

If we only know our first thoughts then we don't know ourselves at all. We only know the person that culture has shaped us to be.

We can't input all of the information our tech-filled world offers into our lives and it not affect us. If we don't have the ability (time, desire, mental energy) to sit in silence and solitude then we lose our ability to contemplate.

[Cody Jensen @Cody_Jensen]

When we contemplate we reach into the taproot of Love that is Jesus at our core and we create the space required to process all things. Within that contemplation, we realize that we don't need to voice "that thought" because that's just our first thought, not our actual opinion.
