Being Known Podcast

Who are you becoming—and with whom are you becoming?   We only become by belonging. And this isn't merely a psychological principle. It is woven into the very nature of God, creation, and what it means to be human.   Join Curt and Pepper as they explore what Genesis tells us about belonging and becoming, why we are created unfinished and in need of one another, and what it means to belong to Jesus—not simply as an idea or belief, but as a real Person. What happens when belonging is disrupted? And how might belonging to Jesus reshape the way we belong to one another?   * * * * * Thank you for our season 12 exclusive sponsor, Tabor College Master of Education in Neuroscience and Trauma.   Join us in October for the Center for Being Known annual Connections Conference.

What if becoming who we were made to be is inseparable from belonging?   In season 11 (if you can remember that far back), we explored rupture and repair—the ways our relationships shape us, and how repair allows us to experience secure attachment. This season, we’re taking the next step: belonging to become.   Join Curt and Pepper as they explore what it means to belong, why belonging is essential to becoming, and what happens to us when we experience the absence of belonging or when belonging itself includes ruptures that are inadequately repaired. As we begin this season, we’ll consider the possibility that I can only become to the degree to which I belong—and what that means for the relationships and communities that are shaping who we are becoming.   * * * * * Thank you for our season 12 exclusive sponsor, Tabor College Master of Education in Neuroscience and Trauma.   Join us in October for the Center for Being Known annual Connections Conference.

We live in an age overflowing with information. Answers are always within reach, and with a few taps, we can know almost anything. But does having more information actually make us wiser?   In this special bonus episode, Curt, Pepper, and Amy explore the difference between acquiring knowledge and becoming people of wisdom. They consider how wisdom is formed slowly: in our bodies, in relationships, and even through the mistakes and ruptures we experience along the way.   Wisdom isn't something we acquire. It's something we become, and we become it together. Join us at this year's Connections Conference as we dive even deeper into the theme of The Way of Wisdom.   * * * * Join us in October for the Center for Being Known annual Connections Conference.

What does it mean to become more fully human—and why can’t we do it alone? In this Season 1 encore, we return to some of the foundational ideas of Being Known: Christian spiritual formation, the stories we tell about ourselves, the embodied and relational nature of the mind, and the hard—and beautiful—work of becoming people who create beauty and goodness in the world. Join Curt and Pepper as they look back on the season and explore why being known requires our active participation, how our stories are transformed in relationship with others, and why even suffering can become a place where beauty emerges when we refuse to go through it alone.   Join us as we begin, again, the journey of becoming more fully known, loved, and alive.   This season 1 encore episode is sponsored by Tabor College Master of Education in Neuroscience and Trauma.   Joins us in October for the Center for Being Known annual Connections Conference.

We long for transformation and renewal, but how do we get it? The good news is that our brains are not fixed, but continue to be shaped by experience.
