In this episode of the Orbital Tribe, Aya discusses her upbringing in a spiritually open family, contrasting her experiences with fear-based doctrines often found in traditional religious settings. She reflects on her spiritual awakening during the pandemic, which led her to explore the Bible and discover profound connections between neuroscience and the teachings of Jesus. Aya emphasizes the importance of developing a personal relationship with God, moving away from fear-based beliefs, and fostering intimacy in spiritual practices.

The conversation delves into the significance of forgiveness, the impact of fear on mental health, and how understanding neuroscience can enhance one's spiritual journey. Aya shares her insights on how scientific principles align with biblical teachings, particularly regarding love, forgiveness, and the importance of critical thinking in faith. This episode discusses the necessity of personal relationships with God, the role of prayer, and the importance of fostering a sense of wonder and curiosity in spirituality.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 — Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

Do it afraid, but do it anyway!

Joshua 1:9 "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not be terrified nor dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

Coming out of Isaiah Chapter 40. The Gospel means good news and God has good news for His.

Practicing being in the present moment, and living fully from trust and faith that God has me.

God is still revealing and unfolding His glory, redemptive love, and my need for Him in this area. If you are with me share your story with the Tribe!

Isaiah 43,44.45;60,61
