066 From Division to Connection: Escaping Enemy Mode with Jim Wilder (Summer Rewind)
Attaching to God: Neuroscience-informed Spiritual Formation
Exploring Relational Circuits, Enemy Mode, and Conflict Resolution
The idea of relational circuits being crucial for effective communication and parenting led to a significant change in the speaker's parenting style 15 years ago. The concept evolved into exploring 'enemy mode,' a state where relational circuits are not just off, but there is a malevolent attitude towards others. The motivation for exploring this concept came from observing societal conflicts during events like COVID vaccinations and political differences, where hate and hostility were prevalent, even among those claiming to be Christians. The speaker aimed to understand the brain mechanisms behind hatred, which often underlies conflicts, division, and alienation, causing disruptions even in churches and families. The significant impact of these conflicts on families and communities continues to linger, highlighting the urgent need for better conflict resolution strategies and understanding of relational dynamics.
