S6E9: Eternity in Their Hearts
Wednesday Mar 29, 2023
Wednesday Mar 29, 2023
Welcome to season 6 episode 9 of Being Known Podcast. This season we are looking at The Beauty of Wisdom.
Shame doesn’t just appear out of nowhere. Shame begins in the earliest communities in which we dwell. It is to those communities we now turn to see how shame emerges there—but also what we can do to retell the stories of those communities: our families, our churches and schools. Listen in as we get to the bottom of the places where our stories begin, and begin to reimagine how God can transform them on the way to doing the same for the larger communities in which we live.

S6E8: The Wisdom of Many Advisers
Wednesday Mar 22, 2023
Wednesday Mar 22, 2023
Welcome to season 6 episode 8 of Being Known Podcast. This season we are looking at The Beauty of Wisdom.
We live in a world that has trained us to believe that we each live in our own personal silo. But this flies in the face of what neuroscience tells us about the interconnectivity of our minds. So much of our anxiety—and our lack of wisdom—stems from our trying to live against the current of how God has created our minds to function. We think we need to be able to live life on our own, and we seek knowledge so that we can do just that. But wisdom tells us that we were not made for silos, we were made for each other.
Curt and Pepper have learned just how true this is, and invite you to join us as we explore the wisdom of having many advisers by whom we are deeply known.

S6E7: Where Are You... And Where Are You Going?
Thursday Mar 16, 2023
Thursday Mar 16, 2023
Welcome to season 6 episode 7 of Being Known Podcast. This season we are looking at The Beauty of Wisdom.
It’s hard to know where we are going if we first do not know where we are. The integration of the domain of our state of mind is critical if wisdom is what we seek. For if we are not aware of the state that our mind occupies—knowing where we are—how will we be able to move in the path of wisdom?
Join us as Pepper and Curt discover how being known enables us to more consistently be aware of our states of mind, and so have greater access to the wisdom that is being offered to us there.

S6E6: The Story of Wisdom
Wednesday Mar 08, 2023
Wednesday Mar 08, 2023
Welcome to season 6 episode 6 of Being Known Podcast. This season we are looking at The Beauty of Wisdom.
The book of Proverbs portrays Wisdom as calling out in the streets. She, in effect, is telling her story, and asking us to join her. As it turns out, it is crucial in becoming people of wisdom that we not only understand the stories we tell about ourselves, but that we tell them wisely. And to do this, we need other trustworthy people in our lives who can help us do this. For it is in the very process of telling our stories that we knead wisdom into the dough of our lives.
In this episode, Pepper and Curt have the opportunity to continue to tell each other their stories, a telling that opens the door for wisdom to enter.

S6E5: Wisdom of the Ages: Remembering our Future
Wednesday Mar 01, 2023
Wednesday Mar 01, 2023
Welcome to season 6 episode 5 of Being Known Podcast. This season we are looking at The Beauty of Wisdom.
The memory domain of integration is not only about the past, it’s about the future. The future we are remembering. And indeed, becoming wise has everything to do with how you make sense of your past, something you are doing every moment of your life, even if you are not aware of it.
For if we are to be wise as we approach our future, we must be aware of how our past is shaping us as much as any new information we accumulate along the way. Curt and Pepper explore how our own memory—and the memory of those who have gone before us—enable us to be more deeply known, and people of greater wisdom as a result.

S6E4: Right and Wrong: Being and Knowing…and Being
Wednesday Feb 22, 2023
Wednesday Feb 22, 2023
Welcome to season 6 episode 4 of Being Known Podcast. This season we are looking at The Beauty of Wisdom.
We often assume that wisdom is to be equated with knowing things. And indeed, knowing things is important. But only to the degree that it enables us to create beauty and goodness in the world, not least that of flourishing relationships.
Our challenge is that so often we are interested in acquiring knowledge because we are more concerned with being right than we are about being loving.
The horizontal domain of integration—that of the relationship between the right and left hemispheres of the brain—is the setting in which we learn that wisdom is so much more than knowing: it’s about being known. In this episode, Curt and Pepper will connect with their right and left brains—and with you—as we continue on this marvelous journey of becoming people of wisdom.

S6E3: The Wisdom of the Body: Beginning at the Beginning
Wednesday Feb 15, 2023
Wednesday Feb 15, 2023
Welcome to season 6 episode 3 of Being Known Podcast. This season we are looking at The Beauty of Wisdom.
God creates mankind in a particular sequence, as Genesis tells us. He begins with mud, into which he breathes his breath. And so we too, in order to become people of wisdom, people who are deeply known, must be present first to our bodies.
What are they telling us? And how do we then make sense of what we are sensing? How do we act with our bodies in such a way that wisdom is acquired?
We discover even more when we read how Paul considers the body of Jesus to be a collection of all of his followers together. This is the work of the vertical domain of integration. Pepper and Curt begin at the beginning of being present to what wisdom has to teach us.

S6E2: 2. The Word of God: The Presence of Wisdom—and the Wisdom of Presence
Wednesday Feb 08, 2023
Wednesday Feb 08, 2023
Welcome to season 6 episode 2 of Being Known Podcast. This season we are looking at The Beauty of Wisdom.
In the beginning, it was God’s presence that hovered over the deep waters of chaos. But before that wisdom was with God, and then was at his side as God brought order and purpose in his creating the world. Presence. For to know what wisdom is, let alone acquire it, we must first be present to it—in the same way that we must be present to God, to ourselves, and to each other as the starting point to being known; to becoming people of beauty and goodness.
We will encounter the conscious domain of integration—and so learn how wisdom begins by being present.
