Join us for a fascinating conversation on biblical imagery. Dr. Michael Seufert, pastor at Mission OPC in St. Paul, Minnesota, and author of the dissertation Of Beasts and Men: A Study of Genesis 49 in Light of Iconography, Metaphor, and Animal Studies, guides us through the rich tapestry of ancient Near Eastern hero culture and its implications for understanding Scripture. We explore Genesis 49, Jacob's poetic blessing, and its striking use of animal metaphors, unpacking themes of violence, power, and divine faithfulness. Dr. Seufert highlights the ambivalence in biblical heroism, contrasting the lion-like strength of Judah with the paradoxical power of the Lamb in Revelation. Dan Svendsen, pastor of First OPC in South Holland, Illinois, also provides his perspective as a preacher immersed in the narratives of 1 Samuel. Together, we examine how the stories of David and Judah resonate with biblical themes of leadership, humility, and redemption, offering additional depth and richness to our understanding of hero culture in the Bible. With insights into the cultural, theological, and practical applications of these themes, we discuss how the church today can embrace the counterintuitive way of weakness modeled by Christ. This collaborative discussion bridges rigorous scholarship and pastoral application, offering profound encouragement for the Christian life.

The numerical algorithm used in Flo22 is analyzed in detail in Publication 31, Iterative solution of transonic flows.The next work that had a worldwide impact was the JST scheme in 1981. The AIAA Paper 81-1259 (publication 67) has more than 6000 citations on Google Scholar. Prof. Jameson gave two other presentations a few months earlier which describe the numerical method in more detail. These are publications 63 and 65. More recently he gave a history of the JST scheme and its further development in publication 456, which also gives a detailed discussion of the multigrid scheme which was  first  described in publication 78.The Airplane Code described in AIAA Paper 86-0103 (publication 104) was the first code that could solve the Euler equations for a complete aircraft, the culmination of 15 years of his efforts to calculate transonic flows for progressively more complex configurations and with more complete mathematical models. It was never published as a journal article. The design of algorithms for unstructured grids is comprehensively discussed in his book (publication 500).He proposed the idea of using control theory for aerodynamic shape optimization in 1988 in publication 127, and its further development for transonic flows modeled by the RANS equations is described publications 222 and 229.  Its most striking application was the aerodynamic design of the Gulfstream G650 in 2006, when he performed the calculations with Syn107 on a server in his garage.

Dr. Andreas Schlatter is a classically trained physicist (EPFL, Princeton) with a decidedly heretical approach to physics. Though deeply mathematical in his approach, he dispenses with the purely field-based approach to understanding the building blocks of nature, and asks far deeper question about what the mathematics is telling us about the hidden structures of nature. Rather than take the positivist approach, which suggests that anything that cannot be experimentally encountered is not worth considering, Schlatter follows in the tradition of Gödel and the other mid 20th century logicians, who believed that a layer of the universe beyond the visible is available to us if we can reason our way to it. By following this path, Schlatter has reached the conclusion that the only viable interpretation of quantum mechanics is the transactional one. Unlike the other transnational theorists we've had on the show, Schlatter has gone one step further to propose that there is a transactional interpretation of gravity just as is there is for quantum mechanics. He calls it entropic gravity, and in this episode we explore the convoluted path he took to physics, how he found the transactionalists, and how he and Ruth Kastner formulated an entropic explanation for spacetime.

If we don't have a properly cultivated language of explaining, the gulf between spirituality and science will remain. That is one of the significant drivers of the meaning crisis." - John Vervaeke [00:15:33] "What's the point of the religious relationship to Jesus?

On this show I chat with Adam Baldy. Adam holds an MA in East Asian Studies and is a PhD student at the University of Arizona. As a Senior IT Systems Analyst at Pima Community College, he blends his in-person and online teaching experience with ed tech management.Highlights·      Starting a doctoral program is a big decision (perhaps the biggest decision you will ever make). If at any time you feel pressured to start a program, question the motives of that organization.·      Do your research! Speak with current students, graduates, and faculty. Ask for  time-to-completion statistics and graduation rates. Complete the exercises in Ch. 1 of The Happy Doc Student Handbook. See episodes below.·      There are unique challenges for first-generation college students and navigating the unfamiliar territory of graduate school can add to an already stressful environment. ·      Graduate school will happen in the context of your LIFE; there are no easy answers when it comes to deciding how to manage your own mental health, supporting others, building a career, etc.·      Knowing your core values is key; you will have to let some things go; be honest in terms of your priorities during this season.·      Embracing a part-time program may allow you to balance work, academia, and family life.·      Like stepping into a doctoral program, stepping out of one is also a big decision. Be cautious of “reacting."  Instead, responded thoughtfully to these feelings (see the I-Think-I-Want-To-Stop activity in The Happy Doc Student Handbook). ·      If you do decide to step out (whether forever or for a season), refrain from feelings of guilt/failure and listen to the Good Goodbye episode:  https://www.buzzsprout.com/1547113/8016142 Connect with Adamhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-baldry-ab6501117/Relevant episodes for when you are researching programs:#2 The Doc Journey: Things You Need to Know (that they probably won't tell you)#21 Should I Pursue a Doctoral Degree? with Dr. Chris Cappannelli#31 Reality Check: Is a Doc Program for You? with Jamie Hillman#53 Are We Teaching Students To Be Unhappy? with Dr. Leonard Cassuto#69 Career Diversity & The Doctorate with Dr. Leonard CassutRelevant episodes for when you want to STOP:#7 When You Want to Quit with Dr. Jodie Hemerda#10 ABD, Limiting Beliefs and Giants with Dr. Scott BurrusSupport the showSupport this free content: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1547113/supporters/new Get The Happy Doc Student Handbook: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0578333732Other resources at: http://Expandyourhappy.com Treat me to a green tea: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/expandyourhappyWant to make my day?

Navigating the twists and turns of parenting and education can be daunting, but imagine the beauty of seeing those efforts bloom in one's own child. As Davies Owens sat down with his daughter Hannah, they traversed the memories of her classical Christian education, the values it instilled, and the indelible mark it left as she stepped out into the world. This episode is a heartfelt dialogue between father and daughter, examining the potent mix of faith and academia, the protective yet challenging environment of a classical education, and how these experiences equipped Hannah to face life's complexities with grace and confidence.Learning isn't confined to the four walls of a classroom; it's also about the rich discussions over dinner and the life lessons passed down within the family. Hannah's journey from exploring movie-making dreams as a child to becoming an articulate, faith-filled adult shows the profound influence of home life and a Christ-centered education. With candid reflections, they touch upon the balance of safeguarding innocence and igniting a passion for knowledge—a fine line classical Christian education walks with poise, shaping students to become curious, capable individuals ready to engage with the world thoughtfully.Join them as they explore not just the intellectual, but the personal development that classical Christian education fosters. Hannah's return to her Christian roots after a period of agnosticism and her thoughtful approach to modern womanhood and aesthetics offer a narrative that's both uplifting and insightful. For parents and educators investing in the next generation, this conversation is a reaffirmation of the lasting impact of their guidance, and for anyone curious about the intersection of faith, femininity, and education, it's a compelling glimpse into the powerful journey of one young woman's life shaped by these ideals.
