428: Tim Ross Exposes the Fragility of 'Spiritual' Personas, Reveals True Healing Methods, Healing the Nervous System the Right Way, and How Curiosity Can Defeat Offense
Manage episode 467409450 series 1235430
At some point, almost everyone hits a wall in their faith. The emotional highs don’t last, the formulas stop working, and the deeper questions won’t stay buried. Midlife, in particular, isn’t just about aging—it’s about confronting what’s real, what’s broken, and what needs to change. And if we’re not careful, we settle for a faith that looks polished on the outside but leaves us spiritually depleted on the inside.
That’s why this conversation with Tim Ross is so crucial. Tim is known for his raw, unfiltered approach to faith and culture—challenging easy answers and pushing beyond surface-level spirituality. In this episode, we’re diving deep into:
- Why spiritual formation in midlife requires a different approach than in your 20s and 30s.
- The right way to heal your nervous system—and why emotional and spiritual health are inseparable.
- Why curiosity and offense cannot coexist—and how learning to sit with discomfort leads to real transformation.
- The deceptive side of being ‘spiritual’—why some of the most "mature" believers are actually the most fragile.
If you feel like your faith has stalled, if you're done chasing the next emotional high, or if you're wondering how to build true resilience in a culture addicted to outrage, this episode is for you.
Listen now and start rethinking what real spiritual growth looks like.
