In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore ancient covenant ceremonies and what covenants truly meant in biblical and Israelite culture — far beyond the modern idea of a simple two-way promise.
Using the story of David and Jonathan as a primary archetype, this lesson reveals how ancient covenants involved the merging of identity, shared inheritance, protection, loyalty, sacrifice, and sacred relationship. These covenant patterns illuminate how God relates to humanity and what it means to enter a covenant relationship with Jesus Christ.
You’ll learn:
✨ Why ancient covenants were relational, not contractual
✨ How covenant ceremonies symbolized shared identity, strength, and inheritance
✨ The spiritual meaning of robes, weapons, and sacred exchanges
✨ How covenant blood symbolism points to Christ’s atonement
✨ Why God identifies Himself as One who keeps covenant and shows mercy
✨ How covenant blessings extend across generations
✨ What covenant faithfulness, justice, and mercy look like in real life
This episode also explores the story of the Gibeonites, the seriousness of covenant obligations, and how God honors covenant relationships even across centuries. Viewers are invited to reconsider temple covenants as sacred relationships of transformation rather than mere ritual compliance.
If you’ve ever wondered what temple covenants truly mean, how God relates to covenant partners, or how ancient practices illuminate modern worship, this lesson provides essential spiritual foundations.

In this episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan sits down with Nelson Whiting—bestselling author of Your Problem Isn’t Pornography, certified clinical hypnotherapist, and founder of No Limits Hypnotherapy—for a grounded, expansive conversation about hypnotherapy as a form of deep repentance: getting beneath behavior to the belief systems that drive shame cycles, anxiety, compulsions, and spiritual disconnection.
Nelson explains how real change happens when the conscious and subconscious mind come into agreement, why “time heals” is often a myth, and how prayer, meditation, and clinical hypnosis can help quiet survival mode, restore inner safety, and create rapid transformation through new perspective and new choices. They explore the spiritual implications of inner work, the role of agency, and why healing often requires moving from self-criticism into self-love—so you can reconnect with God, truth, and your highest identity.
You’ll also hear discussion on spiritual discernment (including “false spirits”), the balance of masculine and feminine within healing, and a powerful closing reflection on being “born again” as a spiritual rebirth—held in what Meghan calls the cosmic womb.

In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore how to interpret temple symbols and why symbolic language is central to spiritual growth, revelation, and scripture study.
This lesson introduces a foundational principle of temple worship: symbols are layered, multidimensional, and designed to teach us throughout our entire lifetime. Rather than limiting symbols to one fixed meaning, viewers are invited to approach temple imagery, scripture, and sacred ritual with spiritual curiosity, humility, and discernment.
You’ll learn:
✨ Why all scripture can be viewed as temple text
✨ How symbols operate on micro and macro levels of meaning
✨ Why spiritual stagnation happens when symbols are interpreted too narrowly
✨ Multiple symbolic interpretations of the veil — including Christ, creation, protection, unbelief, and the divine feminine
✨ How to let the Spirit expand your understanding over time
✨ Practical ways to study and apply symbolism in your personal worship and scripture study
This episode also explores examples from Doctrine & Covenants 109, Hebrews 10, the Sermon on the Mount, and the Book of Mormon, showing how temple symbolism weaves throughout sacred text.
If you’ve ever felt that the temple holds deeper meaning than you were taught — or if you desire a more experiential relationship with God — this lesson offers tools to begin seeing with spiritual eyes.

In this profound episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan Farner is joined by Nekesha Burrell, who shares how her near-death experience (NDE) transformed her relationship with God, fear, and consciousness itself.
Raised in a strict Christian environment and exposed to multiple faith traditions, Nekesha describes the journey from religious fear and survival mode into direct knowing of God beyond limitation. She explores breath as consciousness, intuition as divine guidance, and why peace—not fear—is the true signal of alignment with God.
Together, Meghan and Nekesha discuss religious conditioning, spiritual gifts, embodiment, feminine wisdom, emotional regulation, and why spiritual evolution is not rebellion—but expansion. This episode invites listeners to release fear-based faith, trust their inner knowing, and experience God as an ever-expanding presence rather than a confined doctrine.

In this first episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen introduce five powerful paradigm shifts that radically transform how we understand temple worship, spiritual growth, and our relationship with Jesus Christ.

✨ Why ordinances are symbolic of real spiritual experiences of grace and transformation
✨ How every element of the temple ultimately testifies of Christ

Rather than approaching the temple as a checklist of religious compliance, this course invites you into a living, experiential relationship with God — where the temple becomes a blueprint for spiritual maturity, identity, embodiment, and divine intimacy.

In this first episode of Hidden Wisdom for 2026, Meghan introduces the core framework behind the podcast’s direction: living the mysteries. Drawing from ancient traditions, Christian mysticism, symbolism, archetype, and scripture, this episode explains the difference between exoteric religion and esoteric wisdom, and why both are essential for true spiritual maturity.
Meghan explores the soul’s journey as a process of repeated death and rebirth, the movement from head knowledge to embodied wisdom, and the transformation that occurs when inner false identities are released. This episode addresses spiritual development, deconstruction, shadow work, repentance, grace, and theosis, all framed within a Christ-centered path.
Listeners are invited to develop “eyes to see,” reclaim personal spiritual authority, and understand how religion can prepare us for deeper, inward communion with God rather than replace it.
This foundational episode sets the tone for Hidden Wisdom in 2026 and offers a grounded, Christ-rooted approach to esoteric spirituality, divine law, and living a transformed life.

In this extended episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan Farner offers a courageous and deeply grounded exploration of what it truly means to call the Bible “the Word of God.” Drawing from history, theology, mysticism, and personal discernment, Meghan invites listeners to approach scripture—especially the Old Testament—not as an inerrant divine transcript, but as a profoundly human record of humanity wrestling with God.
This episode examines biblical authorship, political and cultural influences, polytheism in ancient Israel, the suppression of the divine feminine, and the role of ego, power, and hierarchy in shaping scripture. Meghan introduces the four levels of Hebrew interpretation, demonstrates how symbolic and mystical readings restore depth and coherence, and reframes troubling biblical narratives as invitations to inner transformation rather than external obedience.
Ultimately, this episode is a call to spiritual maturity: to trust Christ, cultivate discernment, and allow God—not institutions—to be your primary tutor. For anyone studying the Bible this year, navigating faith transitions, or seeking a lived experience of the Divine beyond fear, this conversation offers clarity, permission, and profound hope.
