Brain Damage with Scott
Thinking the way Father God thinks. From brain damage to metanoia: theology, health, nutrition, fitness, strength, politics & more about all the lies we are fed. What is true and truth? How can we figure that out? Let’s look for the nonsense we have been force fed and determine where we have been manipulated, used, deceived, for less than nice purposes.

Just before I turned 30, I graduated with a Masters of Divinity [M.Div.] from TEDS, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School; now called Trinity International University. I was and am still not a "master" of divine things or beliefs. This is my story of being set free from the angry Father doctrines espoused by John Calvin, Martin Luther, the Roman Catholic Church all by way of Saint Augustine and his sin controlling theology. I thank P...
How can we become a healthy person and have healthy relationships? Most psychotherapists are nuts: lots of unresolved mommy and daddy issues. Is there still such a thing as a nuclear family? Is everything redefined about family? Don't we still need two parents to help us learn and grow into maturity? Where are we headed? Why are things so messed up? How do we handle our trauma? Where is the hope? And the love?
A lot of people love four letter "F" words; well, maybe just the main one. But this one; FEAR, is a huge problem and probably behind many of the uses of the other "F" word. Join us as we explore a bunch of the problems Fear cause, create, and combust. There will need to be follow up episodes to deal with more aspects of this problem that often overwhelms many a soul and locks folks up in prison cells of dread, terror, hiding, explo...
I spent 30 years in the evangelical church world in the USA. Most of that was under the influence of Reformed Calvinist theology. I struggled with the teaching about Father God being angry, judgmental and punishing. If Jesus Christ is perfect love and 1 John 4 states Father God IS Love; how could the Hebrew scriptures really teach the angry Zeus and Janus-like god in the sky? What is God truly like? How did we get to this angry god...
Part 1 of figuring out what is wrong with us and why. We all struggle with relationships. Why? Is everyone in this mess? Or just me? Is there help? Or do I alone struggle? I hear many people complain about relationship and marital strife, struggles, dissatisfaction. This is a first piece of explaining the problems and offering some steps to growing, maturing, and resolving issues and traumas.
Here is the basic analogy: when two people get married, they are often blindly and madly in love overlooking many negatives to focus on the connection and what draws them together. When conflict happens which ends in divorce, many times these two can no longer agree on anything and become vilifying enemies... much like how current democrats and republicans [lower case on purpose] nastily treat the other. It gets myopically blind an...
Shame is a good thing in cultures where people have the best in mind for their fellow group members. Maybe?! Here in the USA, I am convinced shame is used primarily in a bad and very negative way to attack the person; not merely their behavior. It is a type of condemnation against those who violate the principles of the one in power. How dare you? How could you do that to me? Shame makes people feel like they ARE bad; not that they...
Background for what the heck I am doing this podcast. We all have traumas and crazy life events that led us to believe absolute nonsense and garbage. When we grow into adult bodies, often we have so much childhood gunk that we are NOT mature emotionally or relationally. How did we become psychotic, mean, angry, crazy people? Oh, let's throw in the problem of "Good / Evil" to start wrestling with how we got into this mess and why we...
A teaser intro into why we are doing this podcast. What the Heaven / Hell is life about? Be patient. This is going to take a LONGGGGGGG time. Have fun learning and re-thinking most of what you believe. Crappy beliefs lead to crappy thinking and behaviors. Does God love ALL of us? Can you get fit, healthy, and strong after turning 50 years OLD? Let's also do some analysis of USA Christianity and punch Saint Augustine in the mouth fo...
