    Welcome to Day 2792 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2792 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 109:26-31 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2792 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day two thousand seven hundred ninety-two of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Wisdom-Trek: The Verdict of Love – Standing at the Right Hand of the Poor. Today, we reach the conclusion of our journey through the valley of betrayal, Psalm One Hundred Nine. We are trekking through the final stanza, verses twenty-six through thirty-one, in the New Living Translation. In our previous trek, we walked through the darkest corridors of this psalm. We heard David's agonizing cry for justice against the enemy who had repaid his love with hatred. We witnessed the "Boomerang of Justice," where David prayed for the very curses his enemy loved to return upon his own head—for his name to be blotted out and his prayers to be counted as sin. We saw David broken, fasting, fading like a shadow, and mocked by the public. It was a scene of utter devastation. But as we arrive at these final six verses, the atmosphere in the courtroom shifts. David has made his case. He has laid out the evidence of his enemy's cruelty and his own innocence. Now, he turns his face fully toward the Judge. In this closing prayer, we move from the Curse to the Confidence. We see the Accuser—the "Satan" at the enemy's right hand—replaced by a greater Advocate. We see David move from the shame of being a byword to the joy of public praise. And we discover that the ultimate answer to slander is not revenge, but Rescue. So, let us stand with David as the verdict is read. Segment one is: The Final Appeal: Save Me by Your Hesed. Psalm One Hundred Nine: verse twenty-six. Help me, O Lord my God! Save me because of your unfailing love. After the torrent of curses and the description of his own misery, David distills his entire request into one simple, desperate cry: "Help me, O Lord my God!" The word "Help" (ozreni) implies active assistance. He is asking God to step into the fray. But notice the basis of his appeal: "Save me because of your unfailing love." Here is our covenant word again: Hesed. This is crucial. David does not say, "Save me because I am innocent," even though he is. He does not say, "Save me because my enemy is wicked," even though he is. He says, "Save me because of Your character." David anchors his salvation in the loyal love of Yahweh. Even when human love is repaid with hatred (verse five), God's love remains constant. This is the bedrock of all true prayer. When we have nothing else to offer—when we are "skin and bones" (verse 24)—we can always appeal to God's nature. "Lord, be who You are. You are the God of Hesed; therefore, save me." The second segment is: The Theology of Vindication: Let Them Know It Was You. Psalm One Hundred Nine: verse twenty-seven. Let them...

    “Another Betrayal”: How the DOJ's Epstein Release Re-Traumatized Survivors (2/5/26)

    The release of the Epstein files triggered immediate outrage from survivors after the U.S. Department of Justice disclosed identifying details that should never have seen daylight. For many victims, the files were not a moment of transparency but a fresh violation—names, contextual clues, and personal information surfaced in a way that made them identifiable to the public. Survivors and their advocates accused the DOJ of recklessness, arguing that the government had been warned repeatedly about the risks and still chose speed and optics over basic victim protection. The result was renewed trauma for people who had already endured years of abuse, silencing, and institutional neglect.That outcry quickly hardened into a broader indictment of how the Epstein case has been handled from start to finish. Survivors said the exposure confirmed their worst fears: that the system remains more focused on document dumps and procedural box-checking than on the human beings harmed by Jeffrey Epstein. Advocates stressed that anonymity is not a courtesy but a safeguard, especially in a case involving global attention and powerful interests. By failing to protect it, the DOJ not only endangered survivors' privacy and safety but also deepened the mistrust that has long defined this case—turning what was billed as accountability into yet another chapter of institutional failure.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Thousands of Epstein files taken down after some survivors' names and nude photos found | CBC News

    I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 29th of January, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. John 15:26, and I am reading it to you from the Amplified Version: “But when the Helper (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor—Counselor, Strengthener, Standby) comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, that is the Spirit of Truth who comes from the Father, He will testify and bear witness about Me.” Jesus is saying He is going to send us the Parakletos, and He has. That's a beautiful word. I love to say that word. It is the only Greek word I know, the Helper, and He will tell you the truth because He is the Spirit of Truth!We are talking about the Holy Spirit here today. It's so very important in these days to be able to identify the truth from the fake. There are so many fake things on the go at the moment. With this AI sweeping all over the world, you don't know who is who. How are we going to know what is genuine? There are even people who can impersonate me, they can impersonate my voice and that can be quite scary. How are we, as believers, going to be able to discern the truth from the fake?If we look at the word of God in John 17:17, He says,“Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.” That is how the believer will be able to identify the truth from the fake. When they made the movie, “Faith like Potatoes”, the lady who took the part of my wife Jill, a beautiful young lady, was on the set one day, and her sister had come to visit her. Now, they are identical twins. I can't tell them apart, both lovely young ladies. Just for a bit of fun, they decided to swop their clothes and Jeanne's sister came onto the set and they were going to start filming, but straight away the Director, a very wonderful man of God, Regardt van den Berg, spotted her straight away. He said, “You are not Jeanne.” None of us knew. Now, how did he manage to do that? I am telling you why. He knew because he knew Jeanne so well. He was spending time with her every day, shooting the movie. When you spend time in the Word of God, you will identify the truth from the fake.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.Goodbye.

Peter Bromka sits down with JP Trojan, an Olympic Trials qualifier who ran 2:10 and finished fourth at the California International Marathon, a breakthrough performance that put him firmly on the map as we look ahead to the 2028 Trials.JP's path is anything but typical. He ran collegiately at William & Mary and later used eligibility while attending Syracuse Law School, building his running career alongside a demanding academic track. Today, he trains with Minnesota Distance Elite while working full time as an immigration attorney in Minneapolis. JP shares what it looks like to hold both worlds at once, how he structures training around a high-responsibility job, and why he races with a competitor's mindset instead of chasing a time.In light of what's happening in Minnesota and the broader climate in our country, JP also talks about his work in immigration law and what this moment has been like on the ground. He offers tangible ways listeners can support affected communities, including two trusted organizations doing critical work.

    The cost of living crisis is getting worse and worse, and it's not by accident.#WeNeedToTalk about why everything feels more expensive right now. Utility bills are rising year over year, healthcare costs are spiraling, and recent policy choices — including the “Big Beautiful Bill” — are making things worse by cutting over $1 trillion from Medicaid and stripping away renewable energy incentives that would lower costs for families. Renewables remain the most affordable and fastest-to-deploy energy solution, but incentives are being blocked while fossil fuels receive massive handouts.In this live conversation, I break down what's happening through the lens of faith, justice, and shared humanity, because these aren't just policy issues, they're dignity issues. And if we care about our neighbors, our communities, and the people most impacted by these rising costs, we have a responsibility to stay informed and hold our elected representatives accountable.What We Can Do* Stay informed about how rising utility and healthcare costs are connected to policy decisions.* Contact your elected representatives and tell them affordability, renewable energy, and healthcare access must be prioritized.* Support renewable energy expansion, since it is the cheapest and fastest solution to lowering bills long-term.* Share accurate information with friends, family, and community members to push back against misinformation.* Advocate for Medicaid protections, especially for children, seniors, disabled individuals, pregnant people, and rural communities.* Have compassionate conversations in your circles, using data and personal stories, to help others understand the human impact.* Strengthen community care networks, checking in on neighbors, elders, and vulnerable families who might be struggling.* Use your faith and values as a guide, grounding your advocacy in love, dignity, and collective responsibility.* Support local mutual aid or community organizations that help families bridge the gaps created by policy failures.* Raise awareness online, amplifying justice-centered voices and keeping attention on the communities most impacted.#WeNeedToTalk is a reader-supported publication.

    In some ways, the characters in this book were my first lovers.Today we meet Michael Horvich and we're talking about the queer book that saved his life: Giovanni's Room by James Baldwin.Michael is a retired Elementary School Educator and University Instructor. In addition he's many things, here's just a partial list: Poet, Collector, Museum Curator Emeritis, Book Binder, Supernumerary, Flea Circus Ringmaster, and Dementia/Alzheimer's Advocate. He has published two volumes poetry, which in part portray his journey navigating his life partner's Alzheimer's. His advocacy work has led to presentations at numerous organizations including at the Northwestern University Kellogg Graduate School of Business, 33rd Annual Alzheimer's Disease International Convention, and the Chicago LGBTQ Center on Halsted. He also gave the opening key note at the 2019 Mayo Clinic / Minnesota-North Dakota Alzheimer's Association Conference. Michael was featured in ALAN TELLER's “STILL AT IT!"ART SHOW.James Baldwin was a novelist, essayist, playwright, poet, and social critic. His first novel, Go Tell It on the Mountain, appeared in 1953 to excellent reviews, and his essay collections Notes of a Native Son and The Fire Next Time were bestsellers that made him an influential figure in the growing civil rights movement. Baldwin spent much of his life in France, where he moved to escape the racism and homophobia of the United States. He died in France in 1987, a year after being made a Commander of the French Legion of Honor.Connect with Michaelwebsite: www.horvich.comsubstack: mhorvich.substack.comfacebook: facebook.com/mhorvichcreatesOur BookshopVisit our Bookshop for new releases, current bestsellers, banned books, critically acclaimed LGBTQ books, or peruse the books featured on our podcasts: bookshop.org/shop/thisqueerbookBuy your copy of Giovanni's Room here: https://bookshop.org/a/82376/9780345806567Become an Associate Producer!Become an Associate Producer of our podcast through a $20/month sponsorship on Patreon!

    Send us a textMore of us are being seen by nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician associates/assistants (PAs); for routine care outcomes look similar to physician visits, but for complex, new, or worsening problems you should push to see the doctor and ask for clear oversight.Key topicsWhy this is happening: Longer waits and rising demand meet a physician shortfall, so systems lean on NPs/PAs to expand access. New-patient waits average ~31 days, varying widely by city and specialty (AMN). Fewer people have a usual source of care, pushing visits to urgent care/ER (Milbank Scorecard).The scope shift: NP involvement in Medicare outpatient visits rose from 14% in 2013 to ~26% in 2019 (Harvard/Tradeoffs summary). Projections show rapid growth in NP and PA roles through 2030 (ValuePenguin analysis).Training differences (at a glance): NPs typically complete a master's/DNP with ~500–700 supervised clinical hours and, in many states, can practice independently; PAs complete a master's with ~2,000 supervised hours and practice with physician collaboration; physicians complete medical school plus 3–5+ years of residency (~10,000+ hours) and broad rotations—critical for complex differential diagnosis (AJMC overview).Quality of care, by the evidence: For common, protocol-driven issues, outcomes are generally similar. A Cochrane-summarized evidence base finds comparable results for blood pressure control, mortality, and patient satisfaction, with longer counseling time in NP visits (AJMC summary of RCTs). Patients often feel PAs spend more time with them (JAAPA survey). Diabetes care quality appears similar across clinicians (PubMed); NPs tend to deliver more smoking-cessation counseling (AANP brief).Where this works well: Routine follow-ups (blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes), protocol-based care, minor acute concerns (UTI, simple URI), post-op checks when all is going well—especially with clear physician involvement.When to push for the doctor: New, unclear, or non-resolving problems (e.g., complex headaches, persistent back pain, ongoing fatigue or depression), multiple chronic conditions, many medications, or when a serious alternative diagnosis must be ruled out (e.g., “heartburn” vs. cardiac disease).Advocate for transparency: Ask in advance who you'll see, whether your case will be reviewed with a physician, and how escalation works if you're not improving.TakeawaysAccess will keep driving NP/PA growth; use it to be seen sooner.For routine care, NPs/PAs are often a solid choice with similar outcomes and more counseling time.For complexity, insist on physician evaluation or documented oversight.You have the power to ask questions, confirm the plan, and request escalation when needed.Links mentioned in this episode AMN wait-time trends →

    Description:This is your wake up call: your body was never the problem. By midlife, so many women are exhausted—not just by life, but by decades of being told to manage, fix, discipline, and override our bodies. Wellness culture promised health and control. What it often delivered was shame, disconnection, and the quiet belief that rest, ease, and joy had to be earned. Today's conversation asks us to wake up to something different. Chrissy King is a writer, educator, and body liberation advocate whose work exposes the harm baked into diet and fitness culture and offers a radically more honest path forward. One rooted in consent instead of control. Trust instead of punishment. Listening instead of fixing. In this Wake Up Call episode, Chrissy opens our eyes to what happens when we stop treating our bodies like projects and start treating them like partners—especially in midlife, when our bodies are changing and asking us to pay attention. We unpack why rest is a biological need (not a reward), and how relearning how to listen can be a form of liberation. This is a wake up call to the truth we've ignored: the body knows. It knows when something isn't working. It knows when we're depleted. It knows what it needs next. And when we learn to trust that wisdom—not just individually, but collectively—we don't just heal our relationship with our bodies, we change the story entirely. If your body has been tapping you on the shoulder, this episode is your invitation to listen. Thought-provoking Quotes: “Society has conditioned women to put all of our value, effort, and energy into being the smallest version of ourselves possible. Then we have to spend the second half of our lives trying to unlearn that.” – Chrissy King “In ancient art, we see these big, beautiful bodies being immortalized and looked at as beautiful. So, how did we get to this point where we're demonizing people in larger bodies?” – Chrissy King “I think falling in love yourself is the most beautiful love story of all time.” - Chrissy King “The focus can't just be, do I feel good in my body? The focus has to be, is anybody in any body able to feel safe and respected and exist in their body free of harm? That's what the modern body positivity movement is really missing.” - Chrissy King “I think that we have to accept what our abilities are today, that what our bodies look like today is what it looks like today and tomorrow could be completely different. Bodies are designed to change.” - Chrissy King Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Awake: A Memoir by Jen Hatmaker - https://amzn.to/4qoLTnZ The Body Liberation Project: How Understanding Racism and Diet Culture Helps Cultivate Joy and Build Collective Freedom by Chrissy King - https://amzn.to/49m6TWn The Body is Not an Apology: The Power of Radical Self-Love by Sonya Renne Taylor - https://amzn.to/3YJyfQ9 Fearing the Black Body: The Racial Origins of Fat Phobia by Dr. Sabrina Strings - https://amzn.to/49rmeoA White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism by Robin DiAngelo - https://amzn.to/3NyO75z Be The Bridge organization - https://bethebridge.com/  We Were Never Meant to Have Universal Healthcare by Dr. Jessica Knurick - https://drjessicaknurick.substack.com/p/we-were-never-meant-to-have-universal Guest's Links: Website - https://chrissyking.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/iamchrissyking/ Twitter - https://x.com/iamchrissyking TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@iamchrissyking Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/ChrissyKingFitness/ Substack - https://chrissyking.substack.com/ Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
