Arc 1 – Foundations of Discernment
Episodes 1 – 6
We begin by exploring how we see — what shapes our perceptions, our instincts, and our sense of truth. Learning to notice distortion is the first step toward clarity.

Arc 2 – Origins and Order
Episodes 7 – 12
We turn to beginnings — the patterns, design, and balance woven into the world around us. What can the structure of creation itself teach us about meaning and purpose?

Arc 3 – The Human Pattern
Episodes 13 – 18
We examine the recurring tendencies in human nature — our motives, missteps, and longing for something better. Understanding the pattern helps us break free from it.
Listening in Order Matters
The Ponder Podcast is designed around Arcs—short episodes that build on one another. To get the most from the journey, start with Arc 1 and follow Episodes 1–6 in order; they lay the foundation for everything that follows.
- Start with Arc 1 (Episodes 1–6).
- Follow in order if possible—each episode connects the next.
- After the first few arcs, later arcs can be explored more freely.
