À propos de cet audio
A revolutionary new offering from Dr. Jordan B. Peterson, renowned psychologist and author of the global bestseller 12 Rules for Life.
In We Who Wrestle with God, Dr. Peterson guides us through the ancient, foundational stories of the Western world. In riveting detail, he analyzes the Biblical accounts of rebellion, sacrifice, suffering, and triumph that stabilize, inspire, and unite us culturally and psychologically. Adam and Eve and the eternal fall of mankind; the resentful and ultimately murderous war of Cain and Abel; the cataclysmic flood of Noah; the spectacular collapse of the Tower of Babel; Abraham’s terrible adventure; and the epic of Moses and the Israelites. What could such stories possibly mean? What force wrote and assembled them over the long centuries? How did they bring our spirits and the world together, and point us in the same direction?
It is time for us to understand such things, scientifically and spiritually; to become conscious of the structure of our souls and our societies; and to see ourselves and others as if for the first time.
Join Elijah as he discovers the Voice of God in the dictates of his own conscience and Jonah confronting hell itself in the belly of the whale because he failed to listen and act. Set yourself straight in intent, aim, and purpose as you begin to more deeply understand the structure of your society and your soul. Journey with Dr. Peterson through the greatest stories ever told.
Dare to wrestle with God.

From the author of 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos comes a provocative hypothesis that explores the connection between what modern neuropsychology tells us about the brain and what rituals, myths, and religious stories have long narrated. A cutting-edge work that brings together neuropsychology, cognitive science, and Freudian and Jungian approaches to mythology and narrative, Maps of Meaning presents a rich theory that makes the wisdom and meaning of myth accessible to the critical modern mind.

Today’s conservatives know what they’re against. They’re anti-woke, anti-globalist, anti-big government. But what exactly do they stand for? The fact that this is a hard question to answer is a damning indictment of the modern Republican Party which has abjectly failed to articulate an affirmative alternative to the left’s vision. Ramaswamy calls on the conservative movement to articulate exactly what it stands for, or else warns of another illusory “red wave” in 2024.

In The War on the West, Douglas Murray shows how many well-meaning people have been fooled by hypocritical and inconsistent anti-West rhetoric. After all, if we must discard the ideas of Kant, Hume, and Mill for their opinions on race, shouldn’t we discard Marx, whose work is peppered with racial slurs and anti-Semitism? Embers of racism remain to be stamped out in America, but what about the raging racist inferno in the Middle East and Asia?

The Red Book, published to wide acclaim in 2009, contains the nucleus of C. G. Jung's later works. It was here that he developed his principal theories of the archetypes, the collective unconscious, and the process of individuation that would transform psychotherapy from treatment of the sick into a means for the higher development of the personality.

Our ability to prevent and reverse these conditions—and feel incredible today—is under our control and simpler than we think. The key is our metabolic function—the most important and least understood factor in our overall health. As Dr. Casey Means explains in this book, nearly every health problem we face can be explained by how well the cells in our body create and use energy. To live free from frustrating symptoms and life-threatening disease, we need our cells to be optimally powered so that they can create “good energy,” the essential fuel that impacts every aspect of our wellbeing.

A mythic figure in fighting and a legendary member of the “first family of martial arts,” Rickson Gracie is considered the godfather of what we recognize today as Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). Although Rickson’s three decades of total dominance in Jiu Jitsu is astounding, even more astounding is the serenity and spiritual depth of his approach to combat. For Rickson, Jiu Jitsu is a metaphor for life. Some consider Jiu Jitsu a martial art, others consider it a sport, but to Gracie, it is a philosophical system he uses to face and evaluate life’s challenges and maintain happiness and mental balance.

Here is Trump in action—how he runs his organization and how he runs his life—as he meets the people he needs to meet, chats with family and friends, clashes with enemies, and challenges conventional thinking. But even a maverick plays by rules, and Trump has formulated time-tested guidelines for success. He isolates the common elements in his greatest accomplishments; he shatters myths; he names names, spells out the zeros, and fully reveals the deal-maker's art. And throughout, Trump talks—really talks—about how he does it.

How astonishing it was, then, that people should have come to believe that one particular victim of crucifixion - an obscure provincial by the name of Jesus - was to be worshipped as a god. Dominion explores the implications of this shocking conviction as they have reverberated throughout history.

In a dream, the narrator boards a bus on a drizzly afternoon in Hell and embarks on an incredible voyage to Heaven. Anyone in Hell is invited on board, and anyone may remain in Heaven if he or she so chooses. But do we really want to live in Heaven?

Ce que les critiques en disent
“At a time when so many of the mainstream Christian churches are either drifting along with the culture or turning inward to bicker about who has power, it is perhaps not surprising that the most compelling interpretation of the Scriptures is coming from a layman, a psychologist, someone outside the ecclesiastical structures. Jordan Peterson makes no claim to give an adequate theological account of the Bible, but he is indeed shedding light on what the Church Fathers called the ‘moral sense’ of the sacred text. It is practically impossible to imagine anyone who would not find illumination and inspiration in the pages of this book.”—BISHOP ROBERT BARRON, founder of Word on Fire
“This book revitalizes ancient wisdom and builds a bridge between human biology and theology—a bridge we must cross to rescue ourselves and our civilization from the biblical errors now visible on every horizon.”—BRET WEINSTEIN, cohost of DarkHorse Podcast and coauthor of A Hunter-Gatherer’s Guide to the 21st Century
“Peterson breathes psychological fire into ancient mythological motifs, and he proposes a new understanding of spirit that bridges religion and science. This book will help many people recover the roots of their spirituality while orienting them to a new expression of that spirituality.”—JOHN VERVAEKE, professor of psychology and cognitive science, University of Toronto, author of Awakening from the Meaning Crisis, and creator of the video series After Socrates

Excellent and Interesting Book
We Who Wrestle with God is an extraordinary exploration of the human spirit, diving deep into the complexities of faith, morality, and the struggle for personal growth. Jordan Peterson has once again crafted a masterpiece that bridges the ancient wisdom of religious texts with modern psychological insights, urging readers to strive upwards toward the Absolute Good and to recognize the spirit of God embedded within our inner conscience.
One of the central themes of the book is the idea of striving towards the "Absolute Good" — an ideal of moral excellence and spiritual integrity. Peterson uses the story of Jacob wrestling with God as a powerful metaphor for the human condition. This epic struggle is not only about wrestling with divine forces but also about confronting the very essence of good and evil within ourselves. Peterson argues that this ongoing struggle is central to personal transformation, urging us to seek out higher meaning and virtue, even in the face of suffering and doubt. He believes that, much like Jacob, we must wrestle with the divine and our own limitations to evolve into the best versions of ourselves.
What makes this book truly remarkable is how Peterson ties the idea of striving towards the Absolute Good with the spirit of God that resides in our inner conscience. He makes a compelling case that this divine presence is not just an abstract theological concept but a vital force within us, guiding us towards moral clarity and a sense of purpose. Peterson shows that, when we align our actions with this inner conscience — the voice of God that speaks through our highest moral impulses — we move closer to fulfilling our true potential.
His analysis of biblical figures like Adam, Eve, and Jesus Christ is equally profound. Peterson explains how these archetypes represent aspects of the human experience that call us to confront our flaws, overcome temptation, and embrace redemption. For Peterson, these stories are not merely religious parables but timeless guides for how we can cultivate virtue, wisdom, and a deeper connection with the divine spirit within us.
Throughout the book, Peterson blends psychological theories with spiritual wisdom, offering practical insights into how we can integrate these profound ideas into our daily lives. His ability to connect abstract philosophical concepts with real-world applications makes the book both intellectually stimulating and deeply inspiring.
In sum, We Who Wrestle with God is a powerful call to action: to wrestle with our own flaws, to strive toward the Absolute Good, and to listen to the spirit of God within our hearts. This book is an essential read for anyone seeking to better understand their moral and spiritual journey and to uncover the transformative power of aligning with the divine presence within us. Peterson’s insights will leave readers not only enlightened but also inspired to live with greater purpose and integrity. Highly recommended

Reestablishment of the covenant
This book is a beautiful and forceful examination of our fractured relationship with the essence of what is good. It is so abundantly clear to so many of us that we are collectively lost in the dessert. Jordan has tirelessly strived to set an example for the rest of us of what renewal of the covenant with the divine looks like and this book is just the latest example of that striving. His unique ability to integrate across the disciplines of religion, psychology, evolution and many more permits the open minded reader access to the collective wisdom contained in the stories of the bible in an entirely new way. This books unflinching treatment of the fundamental realities of the human condition is a gift for those of us hungry for the truth.
