Episode 148 - Tiffany Yecke Brooks - To Rebehold the Stars

EP148 - Tiffany Yecke Brooks - To Rebehold the StarsIn this episode Matthew is in conversation with Tiffany Yecke Brooks, author of To Rebehold the Stars — a book that doesn’t shy away from the hardest questions about faith, silence, identity, and the stories we tell ourselves about God. Tiffany invites us into a space where certainty dissolves, where divine silence feels indistinguishable from absence, and where the work of knowing one’s authentic self can be both unsettling and necessary.She challenges us to interrogate our assumptions: about spirituality, about the body’s role in emotion and trauma, about whether mystical experiences require anything supernatural at all. This is a book that pushes us out of our comfort zones — not to destroy faith, but to examine it honestly. We're grateful to have Tiffany here to explore these tensions, and to talk about what it means to rebuild meaning when the old frameworks no longer hold.1) To Rebehold the starshttps://www.eerdmans.com/9780802884367/to-rebehold-the-stars/https://www.tiffanyyeckebrooks.com/books2) 2014 Aalto University Studyhttps://www.aalto.fi/en/news/finnish-research-team-reveals-how-emotions-are-mapped-in-the-body3) The Body Keeps The Scorehttps://www.besselvanderkolk.com/https://www.simplypsychology.org/the-body-keeps-the-score-summary.html4) Apocryphahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apocrypha5) The Maccabeeshttps://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/10216-maccabees-books-ofStill Unbelievable! book: https://amzn.eu/d/fmsN1CwApostate book: https://amzn.eu/d/9RIUZYxTo contact us, email: reasonpress@gmail.comour YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@reasonpress2901Our Theme Music was written for us by Holly, to support her and to purchase her music use the links below:https://hollykirstensongs.com/https://hollykirsten.bandcamp.com/
