Have you listened to the FULL EPISODE yet?

"Everything you are working and striving for, you already have. That so often we're working, sweating, clinging, grasping, striving to feel worthy enough. And the fundamental good news, what's called the gospel, is the announcement that you're loved exactly as you are." - Rob Bell

Spiritual teacher Rob Bell unveils a profound truth about the human struggle for worthiness, challenging our deeply ingrained beliefs about achievement and acceptance. Through his candid reflections, he reveals his own battle with the relentless inner voice that whispers "push, push, push," and "it's not enough," while sharing how he's learned to embrace the radical notion that we're already complete. Bell's journey demonstrates the transformative power of accepting our inherent worthiness, showing how this acceptance frees us to create and achieve from a place of wholeness rather than lack.

In a remarkable convergence of spirituality and surfing, Bell shares how his daily encounters with the ocean have become a form of moving meditation, offering glimpses of the divine in unexpected places. From swimming with dolphins off Venice Beach to witnessing great white sharks at Sunset Point, these experiences embody the rare combination of terror and wonder that characterizes authentic spiritual awakening. His stories illustrate how finding joy isn't about achieving more, but about awakening to the wonder that already surrounds us – even in the midst of our everyday struggles and imperfections.
