Tune in as they break down how to avoid common health mistakes and tailor a strategy that actually works for you.

The Apostle Paul writes that “the law is spiritual,” but what does that mean? Today, David answers that question. And the answer will explain why he said last week that the answer to “What is a Christian view of law?” depends on a person’s metaphysics. The answer Scripture provides is the only antidote to the metaphysical nihilism that infects so many Christians engaged in law and public policy advocacy, from professionals to preachers.

In this engaging conversation, we explore various themes including musical practice, insights from the Christian Comedy Association, the quirks of surveillance work, and the importance of making wise choices in life. We also discuss the value of listening to podcasts over other distractions and delve into humorous discussions about everyday items like a propane torch kit and Quaker Oats. Our conversation is filled with laughter, insights, and a light-hearted approach to serious topics. In this episode, we engage in a humorous and insightful discussion about various topics, including the challenges of weeding, the debate over all-purpose tools, the claims of broom technology, and the evolution of playground equipment. We explore the practicality and effectiveness of different tools while infusing our conversation with wit and banter. In this conversation, we explore various themes related to technology, communication, and cultural references. We discuss how technology is portrayed in media, particularly in sci-fi films, and the evolution of communication methods, especially with the advent of cell phones. Our conversation also touches on the humorous implications of having Jesus present in everyday situations and the origins of certain cultural phrases. Through humor and insightful commentary, we reflect on societal norms and the absurdities of modern life.

The Southern Poverty Law Center has been in the business of big hate for decades. Even after inspiring a 2012 domestic terror attack by an attempted mass-shooter who used their "hate map," the SPLC doubled down. The organization is once again targeting conservatives for their views. Daily Signal's Tyler O'Neil and Family Research Council's Chris Gacek explain the history and corruption of SPLC, their devolution to the far left, and impact of its hate map.

One of the areas where business people are tempted towards irrelevant fluff is in the area of Finance. There are so many metrics that could be tracked, so many numbers that could be calculated, so many ratios and statistics that could be presented. If it wanted to, the Finance Department could be the business BS department. The 4 things that the Finance Department should focus on in order to provide value to customers and owners are Data, Analysis, Insight, and Action.

If you have to scale back and take on roles that you previously delegated while you rebuild, do it. Yes it sucks. But sitting and moping, wishing it were not so as you wait for things to pan out on their own is not an option for you. All things considered, you have to know when it's time to scale back.

This is CrossPoliticNews’ Weekly Roundup sponsored by Christian Business Leaders Network. If you want to find out more about this network and its efforts to connect Christian business leaders so that they can more effectively help their businesses and shape culture, visit businessmakers.network. Again, that’s businessmakers.network. (https://businessmakers.network/) Well, as our journalist Justin Chartrey reported, Washington state is in for some trouble right now because their governor, Bob Ferguson, just allowed more taxes to be passed in the state. And if this wasn’t bad enough already, these look like they will be some of the largest tax increases in the state’s history. According to our reporter, Justin Chartrey, the bills that were passed will increase the state budget. "The budget, expected to increase an additional $12 billion over the budget from two years ago ...Washington’s Congress operates on two-year budget cycles..., also adds more than $9 billion in new/updated taxes." Specifically, there are three big areas that these taxes are hitting: house prices, gas prices, and small business taxes. For houses, these taxes will increase the cap of 1 percent to at least 3 percent on the annual property tax. This might sound familiar because I covered this particular tax a few weeks ago, but basically it will make housing taxes fluctuate worse by taking away specific limitations. For example, these taxes will partly depend on population growth, which as everyone knows, can change. Secondly, the gas price is going to rise six cents. This one might not sound as bad as the others, but since gas prices in Washington state are already more expensive than most other states, this tax doesn’t really help the state move in the right direction. Finally, there are a few new taxes that will make it much harder to maintain a small business. It’s already hard enough to make money in a small business, and the last thing that these small business owners need is to have more taxes breathing down the back of their necks. And did you know that even Tesla owners are impacted by other new taxes? Check out the full article on crosspoliticnews for more information on these new tax laws in Washington state. (https://www.crosspoliticnews.com/news/governor-signs-off-on-tax-hikes) Meanwhile, our journalist Justin Chartrey also wrote an article about baseball bans and Pete Rose. Pete Rose, nicknamed Charlie Hustle, had been permanently banned from the game of baseball in 1989. He has the all-time hit record, and he played for 24 years, but since Rose would bet money on baseball games, he was prohibited from playing the sport and banned from any possibility of entering the hall of fame. Mark Dewey, the podcast host of In the Bullpen and a former major league pitcher, said that, “I vaguely remember all of us kind of looking at each other, thinking, this is unbelievable. But I don't think any of us had any concept of, ‘Oh, this doesn't mean he gets in the Hall of Fame’. I think it was simply we knew he could not work in the game of baseball, and especially for a guy like Pete Rose. I mean it truly was sad. It truly was his life.” (https://www.crosspoliticnews.com/news/baseball-permanent-bans-and-integrity) And yet Pete Rose was also banned from the hall of fame. At least, he had been banned until now because, even though he has passed away, his ban was just recently lifted. Now, there is a possibility again that he can re-enter the hall of fame. Of course, this raises many questions. Should we lift the ban only after a player has passed away? Is that just? How should we judge whether someone should make it into the hall of fame?

In this episode of the Ezra Interviews, Dr. Michael Thiessen interviews lawyer Barry Bussey about the evolving landscape of charity law in Canada, particularly concerning religious organizations. In the first part of their discussion, they discuss the historical context of charitable status for churches, the implications of recent government recommendations to remove this status for pro-life and religious organizations, and the broader philosophical shifts in society regarding the role of religion. The conversation underscores the significance of charitable status for churches and the potential implications of altering government policies on religious communities. They also discuss the implications of changing charitable status for Christian organizations in Canada. They explore the philosophical foundations of charity, the role of government in influencing church operations, and the need for churches to respond proactively to these changes. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of understanding the historical context of charity, the necessity of making religious arguments in the public sphere, and the challenges churches face in maintaining their mission amidst political pressures.

What is a Christian view of law? According to Romans 7:14, the answer depends on one’s metaphysics. Today David explains why some Christians would find such an answer too philosophical and speculative sounding to be Christian, even perhaps even unbiblical. But Herman Bavinck and Abraham Kuyper told us more than 100 years ago this would happen. Kuyper even saw the Calvinism he loved grinding to a metaphysical halt.

Man, we had a blast diving into this chat about robotics, AI, and all that nostalgic stuff that just hits us right in the feels. We were cracking up, talking about how robots and AI are sneaking into our everyday lives—think self-driving cars or that Roomba zipping around our floors. We got to joking about what the future’s gonna look like with all this tech, laughing about how we might end up arguing with our toasters someday. And those old commercials? Oh man, we were losing it, swapping memories of jingles that still live rent-free in our heads. Then we went full-on memory lane, swapping stories about the quirky origins of peanut butter and our love for snacks like Oreos—yep, we’re the ones twisting ‘em apart for that creamy center. It got us thinking about how food, especially cookies, shaped our childhood vibes, like sharing one was a total power move at school. We even chuckled about the physics of food collisions, picturing cookies crumbling in epic lunchroom battles. We were cracking up about how some of our favorite snacks just vanished—like, where’d they go? We’re still out here chasing the perfect cookie. Then we got to chatting about Indiana’s food scene, sharing stories about its exports like ducks and popcorn. The whole convo was just us vibing, tossing out funny anecdotes and insights about food, culture, and all those little quirks we grew up with.

Business growth is more comparable to a staircase than a ramp. It's not smooth and linear. It's patterns of straight up and flat plateaus. You seek growth, land more work, and increase your sales volume. Then, you stop to build up your systems and processes, train and equip your people, and make sure the new work volume is being digested well. You start to prepare for the next growth spurt, figuring out what you might need to be aware of as more work comes in. And then you go for the next growth spurt, increasing your volume.

The Michelin-star rating system is a way to help us think through our business and value-offering. Not every business can or should have that expectation. Sometimes we need just a convenient and affordable gas station. There's nothing wrong with that. It's a needed business. And, if that's you, expect to be "just another gas station." But if you don't want that as your standard, if you want customers going out of their way to buy from you, or to have customers who can't wait to give you their money, then you'll have to dream a little bigger, care a little stronger, and work a little harder in order to provide that service and be a Michelin-Star Business.

Speaking of Wurmbrand, just a couple hours after posting last week’s episode of the Prison Pulpit, my flight from Oman to London took me directly over Iraq (dry and desolate), Turkey (green and gorgeous), and then after crossing the Black Sea, Bucharest, Romania, where Richard Wurmbrand was from, and where he was arrested and spent years in solitary confinement! I’ve been to Bucharest once, even meeting a few folks who KNEW Wurmbrand, but I don’t know the city well enough to locate anything in particular from the sky. However, it was fascinating nonetheless! Unbeaten.vip Also, and I promise this is the last time I’ll mention this until NEXT year, Sunday, May 25, was the anniversary of my arrest and interrogation seven years ago…UNBEATEN.VIP!

Today’s episode is an “extra” for this week in anticipation of Friday’s podcast on “A Christian View of Law.” It is a sermon David preached on Psalm 25:14 in November 2023 to re-ignite the imagination of those who might have lost the wonder of the “secret” God reveals to “those who fear him.” David's story as a member of a secret society for BMOCs and Chesterton's "Ethics in Elfland" expose how easily we can easliy lose ourselves in a made-up "real" world.

On today's episode the Pugsters welcome clinical mental health counselor Dr. Natalie Atwell onto the show. Dr. Atwell noticed a tremendous increase in the unusual number of rare mental health cases in her practice, many of which were in people who were engaged in occult practices. This has led her to work discerning the boundaries between mental health and spiritual warfare. Dr. Atwell’s ideas and experience generate conversation about the practical aspects of her work, the implications of Heiser’s work for mental health, and a variety of other related topics.

This is CrossPoliticNews’ Weekly Roundup sponsored by Christian Business Leaders Network. If you want to find out more about this network and its efforts to connect Christian business leaders so that they can more effectively help their businesses and shape culture, visit businessmakers.network. Again, that’s businessmakers.network. (https://businessmakers.network/) What if I told you that the Supreme Court is reading the Constitution wrong because they don’t understand basic grammar that a fourth grader could know? Yes, it’s actually true, but before I explain why, we first need to talk about the tug of war going on in Washington State about transgenderism. As our journalist Justin Chartrey reported, our country was broadly forced to accept the lie that boys could play in women’s sports, and if anyone questioned it, they were called names and canceled. That sounds like a toddler tantrum to me. Well, thankfully, Trump signed an executive order in February to keep boys out of girls’ sports, so this has been a blessing to our nation. However, not everyone on the West Coast has gotten the memo. The government of Washington State does not want to change its liberal policies, and this has frustrated the Central Valley School District by the city of Spokane. This school district is not only writing a complaint against the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction of Washington State, but it has also appealed to Washington D.C. by asking the department of education and the department of justice to investigate Washington State’s transgender sports policy. The Central Valey School District is not alone in its efforts, though, because the Mead School District in Washington State is also opposing Washington State’s transgender sport wickedness. However, I mentioned before that this is a tug-of-war, and so this is why. If the state government doesn't comply, then the federal government will hold money from the school districts. But if the school districts comply with the federal government, then the state government will take away funding. And here's the practical side of the problem. The federal government only holds 5% of a school district's budgets with their funding, but Washington State controls 78% of a school district's budgets. So, right now, the state government is the holding the bigger gun, but this hasn’t stopped Central Valley from asking for help from Washington D.C. anyway. We need more school districts like Central Valley and Mead to step out and do the right thing in states that are steeped in a liberal government. Check out the details at crosspoliticnews.com. (https://www.crosspoliticnews.com/news/school-districts-take-up-title-ix-fight) Meanwhile, our reporter David Fowler wrote about the confusion over the first amendment in the Supreme court, and, like I said earlier, the court doesn’t understand the grammar right. We saw this begin to play out again a few weeks ago in a case where a Catholic charter school in Oklahoma wanted tax support from the state, but the state’s government refused. This made its way to the Supreme Court, but it seems like the Court will probably rule against the school because the court tends to rely more on its past precedents and rulings than the Constitution. And even though its previous rulings sometimes contradict each other or don’t seem to fit together, it doesn’t seem like there will be much support for the Catholic school, mostly because people have misunderstood what the Constitution says about religion. People love pointing to the First Amendment as proof for why the U.S. should stay away from religion in politics, but this is where looking at the grammar is helpful. The first amendment specifically says that, quote, Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, unquote. As Justice Story wrote back in the 1800s, the first amendment was supposed to specifically prevent Congress from establishing a, as our journalist David Fowler wrote, quote, “national ecclesiastical establishment” unquote. Congress was the subject in the first amendment—not individual states. Again, as our journalist David Fowler wrote, “The First Amendment’s religion clauses do not give this Court jurisdiction to legislate a tax and educational policy for those in Oklahoma.” (https://www.crosspoliticnews.com/news/will-scotus-get-the-religion-clauses-wrong-again) Find out more of the details at crosspoliticnewscom.

In this episode of the Ezra Interviews, Dr. Michael Thiessen interviews Clint Elliott, the Executive Director of the Justice Defense Foundation of Kentucky, discussing critical legal issues surrounding conversion therapy bans, the role of the church in addressing these issues, and the implications for parental rights and women's rights in public spaces. They explore the impact of executive orders in Kentucky, the importance of defining biological sex, and the need for awareness and action within the Christian community to navigate these challenges. In this conversation, Clint and Michael discuss the importance of Christian advocacy in the face of cultural challenges. They introduce the AAA framework—Awareness, Awakening, and Advancement—as a guide for engaging with contemporary issues from a biblical worldview. The discussion highlights the church's need to assume a leadership role in societal matters, the importance of truth in love, and the challenges of self-censorship faced by Christians. They also explore the concept of justice in relation to the second coming of Christ and the importance of building relationships that prioritize truth over comfort.

I'm still traveling (6 countries in 6 days), so today's show is a mashup of two shorter bonus episodes I recorded exactly one year ago. The first discusses John G. Paton on his birthday (May 24, 1824), as well as a little bit about his contemporary Hudson Taylor. In the second, I spill the beans about the day I was deported from NW China in 2018. Note, these have been lightly edited from the old originals, but some 2024 or otherwise time-bound references are sure to remain. My apologies in advance. Part I: The Autobiography of John G.

What is a “Christian” view of law? David says the answer depends entirely on what the word “Christian” means. So, in this episode, he explains why he thinks the word has lost it original meaning,; pans an emerging alternative, “Jesus follower;” and sets the stage for next week’s topic: Are “Christians” using the law lawfully?
