Ministry Matters Aaron Nelson Some of the most important, interesting and challenging conversations we can have revolve around things like purpose, spirituality, faith, hope, and God. Important – because we are all hardwired to seek out answers to these questions! Interesting, because hearing about other people’s journey can give us hope or encouragement or a sense of…I’m not alone! – and challenging because these kinds of conversations can be super charged with so much baggage that we fear opening up about them with someone else. But hopefully fear will be far from here! Every few weeks, the Ministry Matters podcast The MindThatEgo Podcast Ricky Derisz Welcome to the MindThatEgo Podcast — hosted by Ricky Derisz. MindThatEgo's ethos is to explore nuances of mind, body and spirit by igniting challenging conversations with insightful thinkers, combined with deep reflection on subjective experience. Vulnerability and authenticity are guaranteed as Ricky talks to psychologists, spiritualists, philosophers, scientists, friends and fellow human beings during his quest to understand key questions — what's the key to wellbeing? How can we reduce suffering? What tools are most useful in managing mental health?

Who are those who are making our world a more loving and compassionate place? Who are the those who are building peace and connections in a horribly divided land? And who are those who are lifting up culture with Kingdom values to promote human flourishing? Let’s have some fun and challenging conversations to help us to think, grow and walk courageously down the narrow road.
