Why did ancient people build ziggurats, and what do their towers reveal about humanity’s ambition and hubris?Why do humans keep building monuments that reach toward the heavens? In this episode, I explore the world of ziggurats with Dustin Wright. These towering temples that once dominated Mesopotamia and other regions now stand in ruins. We’ll consider what they meant to ancient cultures, how they connect to the biblical Tower of Babel, and what they tell us about humanity’s search for meaning, power, and transcendence. Along the way, we’ll uncover how these ancient structures still speak to our own modern attempts to climb higher than we were ever meant to.Charting Life:Podcast Website: https://rss.com/podcasts/chartinglife/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093839421655Dustin Wright:Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/4nAkqeH8wUkcDfPzCokTll?si=a796f58a3c5441eaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61564600215684

What if “be anxious for nothing” isn’t a command to feel nothing but an invitation to be shaped by something deeper?What does it mean to “be anxious for nothing” and have we misunderstood the word be? In this episode, Dustin Wright joins me to explore anxiety not as a failure of faith but as a space for formation. Rooted in Philippians 4, our conversation traces how Scripture invites us to bring everything before God, while actively shaping our minds toward what is true, honorable, and worthy of praise. This isn’t about denying emotion, but about becoming the kind of person who learns peace in the presence of Christ.Charting Life:https://rss.com/podcasts/chartinglife/Raising the Wild Ones Podcasthttps://open.spotify.com/show/4nAkqeH8wUkcDfPzCokTll?si=ecfd06673c5141ed

There are some details in popular Bible stories that easily get overlooked. In this episode, we explore passages that get skipped in Sunday school, not to poke fun, but to ask what’s really going on and why they’re there in the first place. As we dig into giants, Nephilim, and other overlooked details, we find that some of these oddities and weird details don’t weaken our faith. Instead, they magnify the power and authority of Christ.Follow Dustin and Raising the Wild Ones Podcast:https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61564600215684https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-hz5ij-18b436dhttps://open.spotify.com/show/4nAkqeH8wUkcDfPzCokTll
