The Counter Culture Mom Show with Tina Griffin

For centuries, many rabbis have denied the deity of Jesus Christ. Why do so many Jewish people refuse to accept the Gospel and affirm Christ’s sacrifice on the cross as both God and Savior? Dr. Brian Crawford has the answers to these complex questions. Brian is the director of digital evangelism for Chosen People Ministries and the author of The Scandal of a Divine Messiah: A Response to Maimonidean and Kabbalistic Challenges to the Incarnation. He explains the roots of these two separate schools of Jewish thought, with particular details about Jewish Kabbalistic philosophy, which is ultimately rooted in the mystery religions of ancient Greece, Egypt, and a slurry of varied beliefs. Brian provides loving counterpoints to these misled beliefs about the Bible and educates Christians on how to share the Gospel with their lost Jewish brothers and sisters.

TAKEAWAYS

Religious practicing Jews are unaware of the Greek and pagan origins of Kabbalah

Kabbalah is a form of Jewish mysticism and they believe all beings are god in the flesh, and that all things in the universe are divine

Kabbalah originated with ancient Jewish philosophers, and later became mixed with Gnosticism and mystery religions

Kabbalists are universalists, meaning they believe everything will be saved and made whole, regardless of what people believe

The leaders of our country are often criticized, scrutinized, and called out. There is an overwhelming need to directly minister to government leaders and their families. The heart and mission of Alabaster House is to provide spiritual resources to government leaders in our nation’s capital through confidential prayer, biblical devotionals, and friendship. Kimberly Genau is the executive director and founder of Alabaster House, and she has been nurturing relationships with political leaders in D.C. for 28 years. Ministering to congressional members and bridging partisan gaps by reliably providing safe spaces to connect is a big part of her mission. “Leaders in D.C. set the tone for the nation, and they have the Legislative power,” Kimberly states. “As they go, so goes America. It’s critical to reach out to our leaders missionally and provide them with spiritual resources.”

If you are living in a perpetual state of fear and discomfort, it’s time to get curious and ask yourself why! Dr. Geoff and Cyd Holsclaw discuss the integral link between faith and attachment, sharing their thoughts about why Christians get spiritually “stuck” and how they can overcome that. Geoff and Cyd are authors and the co-hosts of the Attaching to God podcast. They are also the co-directors of the Center for Embodied Faith, which examines the science of today and how that technical knowledge is backed up by the best source: the Bible. “Science today is just catching up to the wisdom that God has already given us so long ago,” say Geoff and Cyd.

TAKEAWAYS

The brain and the body reflect the truth found in Scripture

A foundation of joyful attachment is found in a healthy relationship between a child and a parent

We naturally develop survival strategies as we grow up that adapt to the environment we live in

If something feels unsettling to you, ask yourself WHY and bring your fears and anxiety to Jesus daily

When someone you love is late to a party, how do you react? When your spouse doesn’t text you back promptly, what happens? Do your palms get sweaty? Does your heart race? Are you filled with panic, imagining the worst possible scenario for what happened to your loved one if they are MIA? If this type of anxiety response sounds relatable, you’re not alone. Dr. Geoff and Cyd Holsclaw are the co-directors of the Center for Embodied Faith and the authors of Landscapes of the Soul: How the Science and Spirituality of Attachment Can Move You into Confident Faith, Courage, and Connection. Cyd has wrestled deeply with anxiety and attachment issues due to traumatic life events in her past, that she has now overcome. Geoff and Cyd share practical and God-centered solutions for dealing with fear and panic.

TAKEAWAYS

God made us for connection and relationship and we need both connection and protection from God and others

The way we manage our relationships on a human level is how we interact with God

Relying on our own strategies to deal with fear gives us a distorted view of who God really is

The way to get yourself unstuck from a fear cycle is to learn new strategies that can give you the ability to adapt and overcome
