"Dear Hart" | SS09

Today I'm joined once again by Greg Pai, author of Voice of the Heart: The Battle for Your Purpose, Peace and Passion. We talk about how technology, media and modern systems increasingly separate us from God, one another and our own sense of purpose; why suffering can become part of spiritual transformation; and Greg's idea of "extraction" — the layers of noise, distraction and dependency that pull us further from truth. We also explore what a more grounded Christian response might look like: stronger communities, greater self-reliance and lives built around faith rather than the values of the world.

I'm joined by Michael H. Peters to discuss his new book Beyond World Religions and his argument that Christ cannot be contained by institutions, denominations or religious systems. We talk about what it means to be born again, the difference between knowing Christianity as a doctrine and actually living in relationship with God, and whether traces of divine truth can be found across different cultures and religious traditions.

Today I'm joined by Gabe Lyons, founder of THINQ and author of the forthcoming The Collapse Is Here. We discuss why he believes we're living through two simultaneous collapses — the weakening of the institutions and systems we once relied on, and a deeper crisis of meaning, identity and human connection. We explore Christianity in the modern world, digital ID and centralized control, building resilient communities outside those systems, and why Gabe believes faith, solitude and genuine human connection will become increasingly important in the years ahead.

In part two of my trip to Washington for the MAHA Summit, I sit down with Dr. Oz and senior CMS leadership to talk about America's chronic disease crisis, obesity, Medicaid and Medicare, the potential — and dangers — of AI in healthcare, and the battle against fraud and waste across the system. We also get into the bigger question at the heart of MAHA: can government, technology and public health actually be rebuilt around prevention, trust and helping people get healthier rather than simply managing sickness?

In part one from the MAHA Summit in Washington, DC, I take the stage to talk about RFK Jr., the fight against Big Pharma and Big Food, and the challenge of keeping a grassroots movement alive once it enters the political system. Afterwards, outside the Capitol, the conversation turns somewhere deeper — Christ, political power, Daniel and Nebuchadnezzar, the danger of worshipping worldly institutions, and what it means to stay anchored in God while standing at the centre of earthly power.
