Dr. Smith delves into the transformative conversion of Saul in Acts 9, highlighting the radical shift in his identity and loyalties. Saul, once a persecutor of Christians, experiences a dramatic encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus. Blinded by a divine light, he undergoes three days of introspection, fasting, and wrestling with his newfound understanding. Ananias, a disciple, is then called to restore Saul's sight, marking the beginning of Saul's new path as an apostle to the Gentiles. This conversion demonstrates the power of God's grace to change lives and advance the Gospel, even amidst opposition.

The Porch discusses the concept of the "Remnant"—a faithful group of believers who remain steadfast to God through times of chaos, calamity, persecution, and spiritual decline. The Remnant are called out from both Jews and Gentiles, united in Messiah, and tasked with building God's Kingdom according to His blueprint—not man's traditions or divisions that over time have complicated the original design, yet the Holy Spirit continues to purify and unify the true Remnant empowered by the Holy Spirit, to restore the Church to its original purpose and unity.

BC made headlines in 2018 when it became the first province in Canada to commit to a $10-a-Day child care system. The promise was to make high-quality, affordable child care accessible to families across the province while supporting early childhood educators. But progress has been slow, with only about 10 percent of child care spaces now priced at $10 a day, and many parents facing long waitlists. Guest: Lisa Beare - B.C.

With Arcand out sick, Meghan Ottolini, Jon Lyons, and Justin Turpin are in tonight to start looking at the Chargers side of the Wild Card matchup at Gillette this Sunday. How will the Patriots be viewed if they are a one-and-done thanks to LA? Then, Drake Maye's shine will dim if the Pats lose to the Chargers so much that he'll be viewed like his opposing quarterback Justin Herbert. And, Mike Vrabel was a candidate for the Chargers head coaching job before Jim Harbaugh was hired which makes us wonder how would both side look if Vrabel was coaching LA.

 “Causes of Beautiful Consciousness” explores how our inner world is shaped by three powerful factors—feeling, prompting, and knowledge. This episode explains how pleasant, neutral, and unpleasant feelings influence our habits and reactions; how our health, discipline, and environment affect whether our actions arise spontaneously or need deliberate prompting; and how past actions, learning, and meditation nurture wisdom. Through relatable examples—like the taste of blue cheese, the cheerfulness of a child, or the narrow vision created by anger—the talk reveals how our present mindfulness can guide the arising of wholesome, beautiful states of mind. This episode offers a practical roadmap for cultivating clarity, wisdom, and wholesome roots in daily life, and ultimately, for shaping our future path toward liberation. YouTube Video LinkYouTube Channel Link Website:www.satipatthana.caDonations and Memberships

About Julie Condliffe Julie Condliffe is a 4x bestselling author, global speaker, and reputation reinvention strategist who helps high-achievers rise from public shame, digital defamation, or personal collapse. A former solicitor turned international voice for the silenced, Julie empowers professionals, leaders, and women in transition to reclaim their credibility, voice, and calling — not despite what they've been through, but because of it. Her latest book, Unbreakable: A Roadmap for Turning Adversity into Advantage, is both memoir and manifesto — a raw, insightful guide for anyone who's lost a title, a platform, or a sense of self, and is ready to rebuild with purpose. Julie doesn't offer polished platitudes; she speaks from lived experience, having rebuilt her life after a systemic and unjust attempt to silence her voice. Now, Julie supports others in their reinvention journeys — from senior professionals navigating reputational recovery, to ambitious women rebuilding after personal or career collapse. Her approach is honest, empowering, and deeply human: she reminds us that no one else gets to write our ending. Whether on global stages or in one-to-one transformations, Julie champions resilience that's real — not performative. She brings warmth, authority, and a message that transcends roles and resumes: that we are not defined by what breaks us, but by how we rise. Julie brings powerful storytelling, grounded insight, and a roadmap for reclaiming visibility, confidence, and identity — especially for anyone who's been knocked down and is ready to rise again.

In this Dhamma talk at the International Buddhist Meditation Center Los Angeles on July 20, 2025, Subodha discusses the 12 causal conditions in paticcasamuppada (dependent co-arising) and relates them to our direct experience in the present moment, asking us to pay attention to what originates in us due to ignorance and what originates in us as we grow in our understanding of the Four Noble Truths.

Everyone carries baggage. It's really not a question of if, but how much. What we must allow God to do in our lives is help us shed the baggage that can hinder us from fulfilling our purpose and destiny. We must let go of it as God highlights it in order to move toward wholeness. Removing the baggage from our lives that keeps us from prospering, that keeps us from fulfilling our purpose and destiny in our lives.

What would the divine feminine or Goddess nature want to ask or expect of a man today? If you were a man representing the divine masculine, and had the chance, what would you want to ask or say to a woman at this moment? Can we even imagine ourselves and each other as different expressions of a divine source, more than merely a personality?These were among the inquiries that helped inspire a profound exploration of the divine feminine and the Goddess archetype at this Fall's Metamodern Spirituality Lab. To learn more, Portals brought together Aviv Shahar and Lab organizers and metamodern leaders Layman Pascal and Brendan Graham Dempsey, along with participants Mariah Rose McKay and Antonia Louise.This is the newest conversation in the Portals series exploring metamodern spirituality.A central theme for this special collaboration of women and men was exploring the role of the Goddess, the feminine, in metamodern spirituality: an embrace, rather than historical denial, of the feminine presence at the heart of the human's universal nature. The Lab itself was a space where gatherings and rituals supported a freer expression of the divine feminine and masculine influences in both women and men.The openness allowed for the emergence of many facets of the Goddess nature: maternal, warrior, healing, wisdom. For many participants it produced a trust and chance for intimacy that in turn generated a deep sense of healing and release of ancient tensions between the genders.Other Lab insights include:It's the importance of community; we cannot do this alone. It's the practical elements, but also the deep and intimate bonds we form, and the healing power of deep relationships.There is the long-wave dimension and nature of this work: we need to include the generational transmission; a project of the next 100 years.When the god and goddess are prepared to embrace each other, inside each of us, a birthing process occurs; those two configurations merge into a third nature that liberates a new future.We don't know the ripple effects of how our hearts and consciousness can affect the world when we change our relationship to the goddess.This quality of intimacy and way of being with each other, where people are held in a place where they can begin a sentence without knowing how they will end it, takes time to build.We honor the broad spectrum of ways women show up from a “masculine” stance, and men from a “feminine” stance; these are potent and helpful ways of looking at the world and ourselves.This conversation is part of the continuing Portals discovery into what is emerging on the frontiers of human experience in this time of profound change.

We are separate, and we can be as one. I feel like there is a lot of healing that we are doing collectively; how do we embody those in the most healthy and conscious way?” (Antonia) RESOURCES MENTIONED Portals of Perception WebsiteAviv's LinkedIn Aviv's TwitterAviv's WebsiteThe Goddess Arising

In an event bursting with pride and youthful exuberance, the Valley Today welcomed several graduates of the Top of Virginia Regional Chamber's Arising Leadership Program. The program, designed to cultivate the next generation of confident leaders, concluded with a memorable graduation ceremony that highlighted the growth and achievements of its participants. In today's episode, host Janet Michael, shares the experiences and speeches of both the graduates and program sponsors. Cynthia Schneider, the CEO of the Top of Virginia Regional Chamber, delivered an inspiring opening speech to the graduates. She praised their dedication and growth throughout the program. "You all have already mastered many leadership principles. You showed up. That is number one. Your employers are looking for people who will show up on time every day, and you did just that... You've made some new friends. I hope you have," she expressed warmly. Cynthia emphasized the importance of confidence and clarity that the program aimed to instill in the students. "The program was designed to cultivate leaders in the arising generation that radiate confidence. I remember when we were putting this program together two years ago that we wanted young people that would radiate confidence and I think that's what we are seeing." One of the highlights of the evening was the speech by Ava Funkhouser, who was elected by her peers as a speaker for the graduation ceremony. Ava reflected on the personal growth and unexpected discoveries she made during the program. "When I first started this program, I thought we'd be learning about leadership in a traditional sense... But what I didn't expect was how much I learned about myself and what kind of leader I want to be," she shared, her words resonating with many in the room. Ava beautifully articulated the essence of leadership, saying, "It's about listening. It's about caring. It's about showing up for people, even when things feel uncertain. Being a leader is about who you are when nobody's watching and who you become when people are counting on you." Janet interviewed several students, including Ava Funkhouser, Kobe Kerns, Kiahna Venable, Brenden & Colton Luttrell, who shared their favorite aspects of the program and the friendships they formed. Kobe highlighted the unexpected enjoyment and learning experiences: "When I first started, I thought it was gonna be this boring thing. I'm doing it just for the experience of learning new things. And then when I got into it and I started meeting my people and my fellow friends, it just clicked to me that this is actually really fun and I actually had a lot of fun." The program's success would not have been possible without the support of sponsors like Carmeuse Lime and Stone. Logan Thompson, the Area Operations Manager, expressed the company's dedication to local leadership and community involvement. "Leadership is very near and dear to Carmeuse's heart... We want to be one of the places that attract people in a program like this to come back and work in the area." Kaleigh Finchem, who created and led the program's first batch of students, saw it flourish under its new leadership. Sharing her sentiments, she remarked, "It's just really nice with these kids. They come out here, they have an expectation of what they think this program's gonna be... But I'll tell you what, three days in, it's like they come out of their shell." As the event wrapped, Cynthia sat down with Janet to reflect on the program's success and its bright future. She shared the long-term vision for the program and its impact. "This is the culmination of an almost 10-year goal... And now getting that vision, like having the program was a vision. I'm just in awe of how beautifully it's rolling out." Cynthia highlighted the vital role of sponsors like Carmeuse Lime and Stone and shared her confidence in the program's continued success. "Because of them, we then had the confidence to launch knowing that we could pay for every student." The evening concluded with a celebration of camaraderie and shared experiences among students, parents, and organizers. "Our future is looking pretty bright," Janet Michael remarked, reflecting the collective sentiment of hope and optimism for the leaders of tomorrow.

Arising from the McGrath Institute for Church Life, the Sullivan Undergraduate Saints Fellowship forms Notre Dame students as leaders in the study and spirituality of the saints. We launched this fellowship in 2025 with an inaugural cohort of 12 students selected from a pool of many, many applicants. As part of their fellowship, our saints fellows completed a course this past semester (with yours truly) on praying with the saints. Next year they will become leaders of other undergraduate students, as they form groups of students who pray together and serve together in a manner common to a saint each fellow selects. But in between the course they complete and the year of leadership they undertake, the whole cohort of 12 fellows, along with me and a chaplain, make a pilgrimage to immerse ourselves in the cultures that gave rise to particular saints––cultures which, in turn, these saints renewed and enriched. This year's pilgrimage was to France, specifically: Paris, Chartres, Lisieux, LeMans, Tours, and Lourdes. Today, two of our Sullivan Undergraduate Saints Fellows join me to talk about the meaning and significance of this pilgrimage with the saints. Macy Vance is a rising junior and Kate Apelian is a rising senior at Notre Dame, but really I should let them introduce themselves.Follow-up Resources:Learn more about the Sullivan Undergraduate Saints FellowshipCheck out the wildly popular “Saturdays with the Saints” lecture series“Pilgrimage and the Urgent Question of Faith,” by Leonard J.
