BIBLE STUDY| MIRACLES OF JESUS SERIES.|THE FIFTH MIRACLE OF JESUS pt.29| THE POWER OF RETREAT| JESUS WALKING ON WATER| CHIMDI OHAHUNA In this episode, we explore the profound truth that prayer is not merely spoken words but a lived life of worship and homage to God. Drawing from the examples of David and Joseph, we uncover how true prayer is expressed through obedience, thanksgiving, and continuous service to the Lord. Key Themes - Prayer as Lifestyle: More than petitions, prayer is the daily alignment of our lives with God's Word. - Thanksgiving & Allegiance: Psalm 50 reminds us that offering gratitude and paying our vows is the essence of prayer. - Adoration Beyond Benefits: We are called to worship God not only as Provider or Healer, but simply because He is God. - Living in the Secret Place: Communion with the Holy Spirit is dwelling under the shadow of the Almighty (Psalm 91). - Admiration of God: True intimacy flows from admiration, telling the Lord, “You are beautiful, wonderful, magnificent.” - Prayer as Attitude: Beyond activities and prayer points, prayer is an attitude of love, devotion, and admiration toward God. Prayer is a life of perpetual worship, thanksgiving, and admiration. It is choosing to serve God even when He doesn't meet our expectations, and finding joy in His presence rather than in His acts. As we admire Him, we are transformed from glory to glory (2 Corinthians 3:18), and our situations reflect His beauty. Jesus is Lord.

Delivered by Elyanne from the Parish of Saint James in the Diocese of Surabaya, Indonesia. 2 Timothy 3: 10-17; Rs psalm 119: 157.160.161.165.166.168; Mark 12: 35-37.THERELATIONSHIP BETWEEN JESUS CHRIST AND DAVID The theme for our meditation today is: TheRelationship between Jesus Christ and David. In one of His teachings, Jesusinvited the scribes to meditate deeply on the identity of the Messiah.According to them, the Messiah was the son of David, because he was indeed adescendant of King David. But Jesus asked a question that left them speechless:if the Messiah was only David's son, why did David himself call Him his"Lord"? This means that the Messiah was not only the human successorto David's throne, but He who had divine dignity. Jesus is the fleshlydescendant of David, but also the God that David himself looked forward to. Jesus actually showed that it is not enough to knowGod just by mastering religious knowledge. The scribes had a great deal ofknowledge of Scripture, but they failed to grasp the deepest meaning of theWord of God they were studying. They were amazed at Jesus' wisdom, but wereunable to accept the truth he proclaimed. Admiration alone is not enough tobecome a disciple. Faith requires humility to receive God's light. King David himself was an example of humility.Although he was a great and respected king, he acknowledged that the comingMessiah was far greater than he was. David did not make himself the center, butinstead set his sights on the God who would save His people. This attitude iswhat distinguishes the heart of a believer from a heart that only seeks respectand self-recognition. On the contrary, in Paul's letters we see a beautifulexample of a relationship between a teacher and a student. Paul guided Timothynot only by words, but also by living example. Timothy accepted that teachingwith faithfulness and obedience. Paul counseled him to hold fast to theteachings he had received and not to be easily influenced by misleadingteachings. Timothy believed in God working through Paul's guidance. The relationship between Paul and Timothy shows afaith that grows through companionship and faithfulness. It is not enough tojust hear God's Word or admire His preachers. We are called to live the truthwe have received. Timothy not only listened to Paul, but also practiced what hewas taught.  Today the Lord invites us to ask ourselves: do we onlyadmire Jesus, or do we really follow Him? Do we only know His teachings, or dowe try to apply them in our daily lives? May we have true humility as a sign oftrue faith.Letus pray. In the name of the Father ... O Lord, strengthen our faith in You sothat we may be a sign of Your presence and work in this world. Glory to theFather and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit... In the name of the Father ...

In this episode, we perceive an expression of awe, uttered to a beloved, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 257, penned by Uraiyoor Maruthuvan Thaamotharanaar. Set in the ‘Paalai’ or ‘Drylands landscape’, the verse portrays the dangers of traversing this domain. வேனிற் பாதிரிக் கூனி மா மலர்நறை வாய் வாடல் நாறும் நாள், சுரம்,அரி ஆர் சிலம்பின் சீறடி சிவப்ப,எம்மொடு ஓர் ஆறு படீஇயர், யாழ நின்பொம்மல் ஓதி பொதுள வாரி,அரும்பு அற மலர்ந்த ஆய் பூ மராஅத்துச்சுரும்பு சூழ் அலரி தைஇ, வேய்ந்த நின்தேம் பாய் கூந்தல் குறும் பல மொசிக்கும்வண்டு கடிந்து ஓம்பல் தேற்றாய், அணி கொளநுண் கோல் எல் வளை தெளிர்க்கும் முன்கைமெல் இறைப் பணைத் தோள் விளங்க வீசி,வல்லுவைமன்னால் நடையே கள்வர்பகை மிகு கவலைச் செல் நெறி காண்மார்,மிசை மரம் சேர்த்திய கவை முறி யாஅத்து,நார் அரை மருங்கின் நீர் வரப் பொளித்து,களிறு சுவைத்திட்ட கோதுடைத் ததரல்கல்லா உமணர்க்குத் தீ மூட்டு ஆகும்,துன்புறு தகுவன ஆங்கண், புன் கோட்டுஅரில் இவர் புற்றத்து அல்கு இரை நசைஇ,வெள் அரா மிளிர வாங்கும்பிள்ளை எண்கின் மலைவயினானே. In this trip through the much frequented region, we get to see interesting sights, as we listen to the man say these words to the lady, at a time when the lady has eloped away with him, and they are in the middle of the drylands: “Traversing the drylands on a day, when the fragrance of the honey-filled, faded flowers of the summer Trumpet flower tree, with huge, bent blossoms, wafts around, reddening your fine feet, adorned with pebble-filled anklets, you have come with me, to walk on this lonely path, closely combing your radiant tresses, and adorning it with the exquisite flowers of the burflower tree, which stands bereft of buds, having bloomed entirely. At this time, you don't even know how to chase away the many little bees swarming around your honey-fragrant tresses. Our travels take us through this mountain, where to help wayfarers find the right way amidst the many paths filled with the danger of robbers, high on top, twigs are stacked on a ‘Ya' tree, whose thick trunk is torn apart by a male elephant, seeking the moisture within, and the broken barks then serve as firewood for illiterate salt merchants, who pass that way. Such spaces abound with trouble, where seeking the food that is to be found within the mounds amidst bushes with drying branches, young bear cubs dig in, making white snakes within to twist and turn. As you sway your bamboo-like arms with soft wrists, and forearms adorned with tinkling, fine-stemmed, radiant bangles, and walk on, I wonder how you have become capable of doing this daring deed!” Let’s walk along the formidable paths and eavesdrop on this couple’s conversation! The man starts by describing how the lady is walking along with him through the drylands, during the hot summer, when the flowers of the trumpet flower tree have faded and are exuding this old fragrance through the scrub jungle. He describes the lady as wearing burflowers on her tresses and etches her innocence by saying how she seems not even capable of chasing away the bees that are laying siege on her fragrant head. Then he goes on to talk about the mountain, they are traversing, and here, we find an instance of care for strangers. People who have walked that way previously, wanting to guide those who come after, stack twigs on Ya trees, letting the followers know that this is the right path amidst all those fearsome ones, filled with attacking highway robbers. The man then zooms on to one such ‘Ya’ tree and points out how its bark has been torn off by an elephant to taste the moisture inside and how those chewed barks later come to serve as firewood for travelling salt merchants. These salt merchants sure have had no time to sit and read, for the man describes them as ‘uneducated’. Interesting qualifier for these ubiquitous sellers of the Sangam era! Perhaps their learning is through the experiences of their travels rather than knowledge from books.  Returning, after that portrait, the man goes on to visualise how bear cubs are on and about, digging up termite mounds, in search of their favourite food, and in their attempts make the snakes hiding within to roll about hither and thither. After painting what a harsh and dangerous place this is, the man then concludes by looking at his beloved and wondering how she has dared to take this difficult journey along with him.  In my eyes, I see the young maiden struggling to walk, unused to the harshness of her surroundings and this is the man’s way of encouraging her to walk on, by admiring her decision to take this journey. Nothing like a shot of positivity to nudge someone to scale those peaks!

Bierkergaard: The Writings of Soren Kierkegaard

Jesus doesn't want admirers. He wants followers. For He is the "Pattern" for us. Admiration in Soren's eyes can too easily turn to envy actively or just plain old apathy where we give lip service. The goal is to admire at a distance and at no cost. Parlor Warfare.

Admiration can feel simple on the surface, but beneath it often lies a deeper, more personal connection. The people who inspire us may reflect qualities within us that are waiting to emerge, expressed, or fully lived. Without awareness, it is easy to turn admiration into comparison or place those qualities at a distance. In this episode, we explore the inner relationship we form with those who inspire us, and how to engage with it in a way that deepens self-understanding and growth.

Let's know what you liked and learnt! Markets don't just test intelligence. They test temperament.In this Timeless Wisdom episode, Shyam Sekhar breaks down the psychological traps that quietly shape investor behaviour—virality, FOMO, imitation, hype cycles, and the dangerous tendency to copy other people's conviction without understanding your own risk appetite.From Warren Buffett worship to crowd-funded investing and popular market trends, this conversation explores why successful investing is ultimately rooted in self-awareness. A sharp look at how investors lose perspective, why popular trends become destructive, and how understanding your own circle of competence may be the most important investment skill of all.  5 Key Takeaways1. Popular trends often destroy more wealth than they create    Virality attracts late money—and late money usually suffers most.2. Your circle of competence matters more than market excitement    Investing outside your understanding is usually emotional, not rational.3. FOMO is not a strategy    Just because others are participating doesn't mean you should.4. Great investors learn from heroes without becoming copies    Admiration without independent thinking becomes imitation.5. Risk must align with personality and life situation    Investment decisions are deeply personal—not universally repeatable.Chapters00:01:32:15 – “Don't Worship Warren Buffett.

Hey GIGI girls, Today we have a brand-new story for you - we are looking at a woman in the Bible found in the New Testament. She was married to Ananias, and they both made a terrible mistake. You can find their story in your Bible in Acts 5: 1-11. Here is a sneak peek....                             A small leather bag filled with coins lay on the table between them. Ananias paced back and forth.  Sapphira watched him. Her stomach fluttered. "We have to decide now," he said, voice low and urgent. They had sold a field—something many believers had been doing to support the new church. The generosity was incredible, and people admired it deeply. Barnabas had given a magnificent gift just the week before, and his name was on everyone's lips. Sapphira's eyes dropped to the bag of coins. "Are we truly giving all of it?" she asked quietly. Ananias stopped pacing and looked at her with a confident smile. "We'll give most of it," he said. "Enough to look like everything. No one will know." A breeze slipped through the open doorway, brushing cold across her arms. "But… we said we would give it all," she whispered. Ananias stepped closer, lowering his voice. "Sapphira, listen. We're not lying to God. We're still helping the church. We just don't need to tell them about the part we're keeping." Her throat tightened. The uneasy feeling in her spirit grew heavier. Respect. Admiration. Approval. The things she secretly wanted crowded her thoughts. And the coins glimmered temptingly in the dim morning light. She nodded. But her heart felt heavy as stone.

This is a conversation about moving from performance to presence, from being admired to being known, and from surface-level connection into real intimacy, community, and spiritual aliveness.Wil shares a personal Fire Island story about “curating belonging,” unpacks how people-pleasing and performative confidence keep us from being truly seen, and offers a simple somatic check-in to help you distinguish anxiety from intuition—including the moment many of us recognize: the quiet “Uber home” realization that enough is enough.What You'll Hear In This EpisodeWhat “Fire Horse energy” symbolizes: momentum, intensity, and the end of stagnationWhy performative success can still leave you feeling lonely and unseenThe Achiever-Performer pattern in dating, friendship, masculinity, and spiritualityThe difference between being desired vs. being nourished“Stop auditioning.

In this episode I dive into a teaching that can help us understand the difference between solid and sturdy love versus insecure attachment (or filling a void).In the midst of the gender discourse, conversations about love and humanity can get skipped over. There is a foundational human-ness that exists in men and women that is found through trust, respect, and appreciation that must exist first. Then we can layer the masculinity and femininity conversations on top of this.Listen in to learn about where most modern relationships go wrong, the two human souls, how healing works, where masculine and feminine energy comes in, why the Sound of Music is a great example of true love in film, and much more.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 — Intro02:40 — Why The Sound of Music still resonates05:25 — Remembering impact over details08:05 — When ideals clash with reality10:47 — Admiration, respect, and integrity13:30 — The voids shaped by childhood16:13 — How pain turns into darkness18:52 — Reflection and pause21:37 — What a trustworthy man looks like24:58 — Integrating the lesson27:01 — Outro___________________________If you found some value today then help me spread the word!

From saving bankrupt franchises to leading iconic sports organizations, Dave shares the defining moments that shaped his career and his character.This conversation goes far beyond headlines and trophies. Dave opens up about faith, injustice, loss, and the unseen preparation behind opportunity. He reflects on how early rejection fueled resilience, how mentorship changed the trajectory of his life, and why building “championship culture” matters more than talent or capital alone.Now operating in private equity after decades in the global sports spotlight, Dave explains why influence without attention has become more fulfilling than power with a platform. This is a rare masterclass on leadership, readiness, and building a life of meaning long after the applause fades.⏱️ Episode Chapters00:00 | Admiration, Sports, and a Life in Leadership03:35 | Growing Up in Bountiful & Learning to Hustle Early08:34 | Rejection, Injustice, and Missing High School Basketball12:20 | Turning Setbacks into Fuel for Growth15:25 | Making the BYU Basketball Team Against the Odds20:14 | Faith, Obedience, and a Defining Spiritual Promise24:19 | Why That One Year of College Basketball Mattered28:19 | Ambition at 70 and Never Being Finished30:48 | Business School, Bain, and Early Career Acceleration35:27 | Clayton Christensen, Mentorship, and Consulting41:31 | Helping Danny Ainge and Entering Pro Sports47:26 | Walking into the NBA Office Unannounced52:58 | Sparring with David Stern—and Earning His Trust57:09 | Why the Celtics Deal Fell Apart59:17 | Being Chosen to Save the Utah Jazz at 2701:02:42 | Championship Culture vs. Winning Culture01:09:14 | Painful Partnerships and Hard Lessons01:16:21 | Tragedy, Loss, and Perspective01:20:04 | Faith, Gratitude, and the Experiences You Wouldn't Choose01:22:14 | Raising Capital to Save the Jazz01:27:00 | Legacy Beyond Sports and the Spotlight Hosted on Acast.

In the hacks of the week, we have a lo-fi camera, a very refined Commodore 64 laptop, and a MIDI slapophone to entertain you, as well as taking a detailed look at neutrino detectors. Then CYMK printing with laser cut stencils draws our attention, as well as the arrival of stable GPIB support for Linux.

Verdict with Ted Cruz

Play Episode Listen Later Aug 28, 2025 16:20 Transcription Available


Summary of Events The shooter, identified as Robin Westman (born Robert Westman, 23 years old), carried out an attack at a Catholic church and school during mass. Weapons used: pistol, rifle, and shotgun. Casualties reported: 2 children (ages 8 and 10) killed, 17 others injured (14 children and 3 adults). The shooter allegedly took their own life inside the church. The FBI labeled the case as a hate crime and domestic terrorism targeting Catholics, though local police had not fully confirmed the motive. Shooter Background Legally changed name from Robert to Robin at age 17. Described as transgender by commentators in the text. Left behind videos, writings, and a manifesto with disturbing content: Admiration for previous mass shooters. Anti-Catholic, anti-Trump, and anti-Israel messages written on firearms and magazines (e.g., “Kill Donald Trump,” “Israel must fall”). Obsession with school shootings and extremist rhetoric. Mother previously worked at the same school; shooter graduated from it in 2017. Political & Media Reactions Trump administration officials and FBI leadership framed the shooting as an act of religiously motivated hate. Commentary in the document accuses Democrats and liberal media of downplaying the hate-crime angle and focusing instead on gun control. References to Amy Klobuchar, Jen Psaki, and the Minneapolis mayor, criticizing their calls for tighter gun laws and for allegedly ignoring the ideological/mental health aspects. The mayor’s emotional remarks about gun violence and children’s safety are quoted, but framed as anti-gun rhetoric. The commentary repeatedly emphasizes a pattern of transgender shooters and accuses mainstream media of suppressing that detail. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
