[About The Episode]We constantly hear many Christian believers describe their faith and devotion as a relationship with God devoid of transactions. But I beg to differ. I think transactions are at the very foundation of every relationship, and "faith" isn't exempt. This episode discusses transactional Christianity and why people might not be attending church as much anymore in Nigeria.[Chapters]00:00 - This Is Important03:00 - Realising Christianity is Transactional06:56 - Transactions Are Exchanges09:31 - Old Testament Verses12:19 - New Testament Verses15:58 - Salvation Isn't Really Free19:11 - Christians and The Inadequate Church25:47 - What Sustains Your Religious Relationships?32:14 - It Doesn't Undermine Your Faith34:36 - The Point of It All37:37 - Thanks For Listening[Social Media] Email: danieladisa8@gmail.comInstagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@danielbriggz⁠⁠⁠Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@danielbriggz⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[Subscribe To My Newsletter]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://briggz.substack.com[Music Used in Order]Jay Troit by Lax SuperlativePienso Viento by Casa RosaChase Waves by KarneefStarry Night (Classical Orchestral Melody) by Jordan CritzSnakes and Fire (Instrumental) by Par Hagstrom

[About The Episode]Forgiveness is a concept that manifests itself across many aspects of our lives. We're taught it's a virtue of divine origins and that we should always, always forgive. But when the harm is done, the hurt lingers and forgiving is not what comes to mind. Are we wrong? Is it right to ask or demand forgiveness of those who have been hurt and victimized?[Chapters]Intro: 00:00 - 02:46Welcome: 02:53 - 04:06Is It Necessary to Forgive: 04:07 - 05:18About "The Glory": 05:19 - 08:00Victims All, We: 08:01 - 08:54When Revenge Sustains: 08:55 - 11:26Forgiveness?

There's a difficulty in describing the state of emotional void. A state of extreme apathy, where you simply just feel nothing, numb.

"I don't trust anyone. I don't think I can trust again". Many of us have been here (including myself). Some have conquered this, and some of us are still dealing with it. But the statement got me into a spiral of questions: What is Trust? What factors motivate trust? etc. In a series of upcoming episodes including this one, we'll explore the concept of trust to better understand it, and how we relate to it.This was motivated by a listener, Peter Taiwo - you can follow him on Instagram and show him some love: https://www.instagram.com/teepeerespect/(tags: psychology, trust, relationship)----------------Link to everything else: https://daniel.curious.page

A rhetoric that commonly surrounds anti-lgbt content and personalities is the idea that their existence is of existential threat and danger to children. I have found that this is just one of the reasons we give ourselves to justify the dehumanization of those we consider "other". Homosexuality is a sin, but sins are still committed by humans.-----------------------------Social Media and donations: https://linktr.ee/danielbriggz

Every day men are out here living their life, each as complex yet simple as the next person. The socio-sexual hierarchy by Vox Day is one of those social theories that seek to explain how men act and view themselves in society.
