Born in Iran, raised in Afghanistan, shaped by Islam, transformed by atheism — and still left searching. UNLAYERED is the honest unraveling of identity, belief, and meaning. A path that ultimately led me to Jesus — the framework of reality.
In this episode, we deconstruct the New Testament narrative of Peter—moving past the religious tropes to explore the psychological reality of his experience. From the physical exhaustion of a fisherman on the Sea of Galilee to the crushing weight of his own denial, we look at the architecture of his collapse and subsequent restoration. This is a reflection on lived experience, the nature of failure, and whether modern distraction has cost us the ability to recognize the extraordinary.
