"The world could be yours if you confront it."
Truth, purpose, faith, and the battle between good and evil sit at the center of this conversation. Drawing on the ancient Jewish concept of emet—the Hebrew word for truth—the discussion explores how timeless spiritual questions continue to shape modern life. Through the lens of storytelling, mythology, and personal growth, the episode examines humanity's search for meaning, the challenge of confronting doubt, and the importance of living with purpose rather than pursuing comfort or happiness alone.
Roger Simon discusses his new novel EMET, a thriller that blends the ancient golem legend with contemporary events in the Middle East. He explains how the story became a vehicle for exploring questions about God's role in human affairs, the nature of faith, and the struggle between good and evil. Simon also shares personal insights on purpose, aging, health, discipline, and the lessons he has learned from a lifetime of writing and reflection.
Roger Simon is an Academy Award-nominated screenwriter, bestselling novelist, journalist, and founder of PJ Media. Known for his acclaimed Moses Wine mystery series and political commentary, Roger has spent decades exploring culture, faith, politics, and human nature through both fiction and nonfiction. His latest novel, EMET, continues that tradition by combining suspense, spirituality, and philosophical inquiry into a compelling modern thriller.
