Being Known Podcast

S2E4: You’re Right. You’re Left. And In That Order.

Who’s in charge here?

As it turns out, the way the right and left hemispheres of the brain work says a lot about how we answer that question. Be assured, that’ a question we need to answer — whether we know it or not.

 

Listen in as Pepper and Curt introduce the horizontal domain of the mind, and why, as it turns out, it really is important for the right hand to know what the left hand is doing.

S2E3: “And he formed the man from the dust of the earth…”

Dirt. Mud. Bodies.

God began with bodies, and the vertical domain of the mind reminds us that if we aren’t paying attention to our body (that’s right, our body) there will be a great deal of life — not least our relationship with God and others — that we’ll miss.

 

Join our conversation as we awaken to why the triune brain is so much more than just three-part harmony.

S2E2: Are You Paying Attention?

Awake.

Alert.

Attuned.

 

Join Pepper Sweeney and Curt Thompson, MD as they start at the beginning, exploring the domain of consciousness, and discovering why paying attention to what you’re paying attention to matters so much. Because if you don’t begin with consciousness, there won’t be as much to your ending as you would like.

S2E1: Be Ye Whole… Integration and the Symphony of New Creation

What does it mean to flourish — to be whole even as our Father in heaven is whole? How does becoming acquainted with the mind’s domains of integration help us get there? Join Pepper Sweeney and Curt Thompson, MD as they explore the notion of integration and why it matters so much — to everything.

S1E9: Wrap

Join us as we recap this first season of Being Known Podcast — and all the new words Pepper has learned.

S1E8: Neuroplasticity

Learn what it means for our minds to be renewed. Literally. And how our brains can change along the way. Best of all, discover that we don’t have to be left with the stories we have told ourselves.

S1E7: Emotion

What are you feeling, and where do you feel it? Join us as we discover why emotion is so critical to life — and regulating it is even more so. While we’re at it, we’ll also see why it’s so important to God.

S1E6: The Mind

What is the mind? And if we answer that, what does a flourishing mind look like? And if we answer that, what does it mean to love God with all of it?

S1E5: Anthropology and Plausibility Structures

What does it mean to be human, and who decides the answer to that question? Listen to find out why those questions are so important, and how “…standing at the crossroads and asking for the ancient paths — where the good way lies…” can help us answer them — even if there are a lot of syllables in this episode’s title.

S1E4: Story

One thing that makes us uniquely human is that we are storytellers. But in what story do you believe you are living? Believe us, how you answer that question changes everything.
