What Is Project Sun Streak? The CIA's Search for the Ark of the Covenant

The Jules Rimet, trophy of the FIFA World Cup, was stolen from a stamp exhibition in Westminster Central Hall on March 20th, 1966 - the year England was hosting (and went on to win) the tournament. The theft sparked a massive Police investigation and multiple offers of rewards for its recovery. Astonishingly, the trophy had not been heavily guarded or alarmed, so the thieves stole it with bolt cutters. In a twist straight out of Enid Blyton, the cup was eventually discovered not by the boys in blue - but by a pet dog called Pickles, who was then lauded as a national hero. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly reveal the identities of the London gangsters who poached the Cup; explain what music hall star Tommy Trinder had to do with it; and discover how, in Brazil, the Cup was to go AWOL again…  Further Reading: • ‘The Theft of the Jules Rimet Trophy - The Hidden History of the 1966 World Cup, By Martin Atherton (Meyer & Meyer, 2008): https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/The_Theft_of_the_Jules_Rimet_Trophy/m7SbwNM4Y0sC?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=theft+of+the+world+cup+1966&pg=PA45&printsec=frontcover • ‘The World Cup is stolen' (The Guardian, 1966): https://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/mar/21/world-cup-stolen-football-archive-1966 • ‘Pickles - The dog who saved the 1966 World Cup' (The Sun, 2018): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQjZagahHKU Love the show?

Be honest, how much time do you spend looking at screens?It's probably more than you'd care to admit. The bigger question is, what is all that screen time doing to your brain?In this episode I am joined by Richard Cytowic, author of Your Stone Age Brain in the Screen Age. We discuss the impact of screen addiction on the brain and body.Astonishingly, Richard explains that our brains have not evolved since the Stone Age. They also have fixed energy bandwidths that make multitasking inefficient, which leads to overwhelm and a dulled ability to communicate.Richard emphasises the importance of self-awareness for overcoming our addiction to screens, and the power of silence to help our brains to regulate themselves.If you are looking to boost productivity in your workplace this discussion is not to be missed.“Self-awareness is key to managing screen time” – RichardYou'll hear about:·      What's going on in our brains?·      How does energy relate to neuroplasticity?·      What does the screen do to the brain?·      The lack of screen regulations·      How to start a healthier relationship with screens·      The power of silence·      Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable·      The role and power of dream diaries·      Richard's advice for CEOs·      What does Richard's best day look like?·      The impact Richard wants to have on the world About Richard Cytowic:Richard E.

Who is the most successful president in American history? George Washington secured American independence. Abraham Lincoln preserved the union and ended slavery. Franklin D. Roosevelt ended the Depression, remade government, and won World War II. But if we define "success" as the ability to articulate your goals and achieve every single one of them, perhaps only one president in American history was ever perfectly successful. In 1845, James K. Polk, newly elected by a whisker-thin margin, confided to his friend George Bancroft the four goals of his four years in the White House. Acquire Oregon from Great Britain. Acquire California from Mexico. Reduce the tariff. Establish an independent treasury. Four years later, he'd done all this and more. As the historian Daniel Patrick Howe wrote, "Judged by these objectives, Polk is probably the most successful president the United States has ever had.” And that's why Polk is the subject of today's show. I don't think another president in American history has so large a gap between his modern reputation and his actual achievement. There are two great biographies about Polk that I've read that have been published in the last 20 years. I'm very pleased that today, we have both authors on the show. Walter Borneman is the author of 'Polk: The Man Who Transformed the Presidency and America.' And Robert Merry is the author of 'A Country of Vast Designs: James K. Polk, the Mexican War and the Conquest of the American Continent_._' If you have questions, observations, or ideas for future episodes, email us at PlainEnglish@Spotify.com.

Diagnosed with Fanconi Anemia (FA) as a child—a rare genetic disorder that often leads to bone marrow failure and cancer-Jonathan was initially identified as a potential bone marrow donor for his brother Anthony, who was also battling FA. However, tests revealed that Jonathan too had the disorder.

Jonathan's brother Anthony, who endured four bone marrow transplants, ultimately lost his battle with cancer. Despite his struggle, Anthony became an enduring symbol of resilience and perseverance, teaching his family and others the meaning of "NEVER GIVE UP." Jonathan now carries forward Anthony's legacy through a lifestyle philosophy he calls "4-ANT" (For Anthony), a daily reminder to live positively, never give up, and honor his brother's memory. Inspired by the relief marijuana brought Anthony in his final years, Jonathan has embraced cannabis as a cornerstone of his well-being and success in his own battle. Today, he owns a marijuana business in Colorado, dedicated to educating the world about the plant's benefits and its potential to improve quality of life. Beyond his entrepreneurial efforts, Jonathan is in the process of launching a nonprofit organization to support families affected by FA. His mission is to provide hope, resources, and encouragement, demonstrating that even in the face of tremendous odds, a positive mindset and determination can make all the difference. Through his work, Jonathan aims to spread the 4-ANT message worldwide: to live a positive lifestyle, never give up, and find hope in the darkest of times.

Send us a textThe Sauchie Poltergeist of 1960 remains one of Scotland's most chilling paranormal cases. At 19 Park Crescent, 11-year-old Virginia Campbell was plagued by terrifying phenomena both at her home, and at school —knocking sounds, moving objects, and more. Many believe Virginia's psychic energy created the disturbances, but new evidence from Malcolm Robinson challenges the theory. Could it have been a discarnate entity haunting the house? Or even the entire street? Astonishingly, similar activity was reported at 17 and 30 Park Crescent in 1969 and as recently as 2020. Is Sauchie cursed by something far darker than we imagined? Join me as I unravel this enduring mystery.NOTE: All voices featured in this episode (apart from my own) are actors, however, they are all speaking the exact quotations from the witnesses in question. For more on Peter Laws check out:www.patreon.com/peterlawsor www.peterlaws.co.uk

Emma is a champion Ironman age-group triathlete, a competitor in the Pro category of Hyrox events, a mother of three, and the owner of her own chiropractic clinic. Oh, and she rides racehorses every morning for fun! But Emma's story doesn't stop there.

Emma had sustained multiple injuries, including spinal fractures. As you'll hear in this episode, that wasn't the only time Emma would face a hospital stay and the challenge of learning to walk again. Astonishingly, after each of these life-altering events, she returned to triathlon competition within a few months and even made it to the podium. Emma's story is one of extraordinary resilience, determination, and gratitude. It's a testament to the incredible healing powers of the body and mind, as well as the importance of fitness and self-compassion. In this episode, we'll cover: How neglecting self-care led to a devastating bike crash Learning to swim as an adult Celebrating small victories along the way Why success starts with giving yourself credit The literal journey of learning to walk before you can run The importance of self-compassion and gratitude Emma's recovery journey from renal failure, osteomyelitis, and three months of bed rest (losing 30% of her body weight) to competing in an Ironman 70.3 event just eight months later To follow Emma's adventures, please check out the following social media channels Instagram - tri_athlete.emmab   You can also find her for business at the following websites Chiropractic - bexsonchiropractic.com Personal Training shipstonpersonaltrainig.co.uk   IMHO, Emma should write about her own story but until then….. this is Emma's inspirational book: The Brave Athlete: Calm the F*** Down and Rise to the Occasion - Lesley Patterson & Simon Marshall Join our SWAT/High Performance Human tribe using this link, with a happiness guarantee!

Her words resonate powerfully when she shares, “I don't need my face to win the world championship.”Astonishingly, Rhonda not only survived this horrific incident but rose above it. She stepped onto the court and triumphed at the World Championships, proving that her strength was not only physical but deeply mental and emotional.Tune in to hear this powerful story of survival and victory, where Rhonda's journey reminds us all of the power of resilience and the mindset needed to overcome even the most unimaginable challenges.-Where to find Tyler Hall: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tylerchall/ Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/the-tyler-hall-archives-7018241874482122753/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/sirTHALL Work with Tyler: https://www.tylerchristianhall.com/

The explosion of the Space Shuttle Challenger in January 1986 riveted millions of Americans, who watched the horrific event live on television. What they didn't know then was that the tragedy was largely preventable, a disastrous result of hubris and “magical thinking” as much as flawed engineering. Journalist Adam Higginbotham's new book, “Challenger: A True Story of Heroism and Disaster on the Edge of Space,” is a definitive account of what went wrong, and how NASA failed to learn from its own mistakes. Higginbotham's story begins with an earlier fatal accident, a fire in the capsule of the Apollo 1 mission, which presaged Challenger's fate. He then recounts the early days of the space shuttle program. Astonishingly, the very mechanical flaws that led to Challenger's destruction were known, but the warnings of a few engineers were ignored by more senior officials, who by the time Challenger was set to launch the first teacher into space faced tremendous political and public pressure to make the mission happen, despite obvious risks. Higginbotham spoke with Shane Harris about his book, why he wanted to tell the Challenger story, and the future of human spaceflight.

VATICAN INSIDER: ST. JOHN CANTIUS, THE STORY OF A CHICAGO PARISH My guest this week in the interview segment of “Vatican Insider” is a longtime friend, Fr. Frank Phillips, former pastor for 30 years at Chicago's well-known St. John Cantius Church. After a number of years, we met serendipitously over my vacation at a pre-investiture ceremony for the Order of the Holy Sepulchre that was held at St. John Cantius. I've always been intrigued by the rich history of this parish and you will be too as you hear Fr. Frank talk of his 30 years here, of his love of reverent and beautiful liturgy, of his founding of a religious community, the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius, and so much more. Thanks to Fr. Frank's dedication, inspiration, as well as decades of both material and spiritual renewal, the current pastor, Fr. Josh Caswell and his staff offer many liturgies during the week, including morning, afternoon and evening prayers, vespers and high and low Masses in both Latin and English. Astonishingly enough, the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius today work in 3 parishes in 2 dioceses in Illinois, offering 57 public Masses weekly and hearing more than 700 confessions each week! Yes, you read that right! First called the Society of St. John Cantius by Cardinal George, the name was later changed to the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius.

VATICAN INSIDER: ST. JOHN CANTIUS, THE STORY OF A CHICAGO PARISH My guest this week in the interview segment of “Vatican Insider” is a longtime friend, Fr. Frank Phillips, former pastor for 30 years at Chicago's well-known St. John Cantius Church. After a number of years, we met serendipitously over my vacation at a pre-investiture ceremony for the Order of the Holy Sepulchre that was held at St. John Cantius. I've always been intrigued by the rich history of this parish and you will be too as you hear Fr. Frank talk of his 30 years here, of his love of reverent and beautiful liturgy, of his founding of a religious community, the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius, and so much more. Thanks to Fr. Frank's dedication, inspiration, as well as decades of both material and spiritual renewal, the current pastor, Fr. Josh Caswell and his staff offer many liturgies during the week, including morning, afternoon and evening prayers, vespers and high and low Masses in both Latin and English. Astonishingly enough, the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius today work in 3 parishes in 2 dioceses in Illinois, offering 57 public Masses weekly and hearing more than 700 confessions each week! Yes, you read that right! First called the Society of St. John Cantius by Cardinal George, the name was later changed to the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius. The reference is to St. John of Kenty, Poland! Here are some of the dozens of photos I took at the Holy Sepulchre liturgy on September 24. Some kind of technical glitch prevented me today from uploading all the pictures I took but when I finally make that happen, there are many photos and many stories to tell What you see is only a small representation of the main body of the church, the reliquary room and what I call the Polish chapel, a room in which Fr. Phillips had recreated to one-third original size the main altar of St. Mary Church on Market Square in Krakow. You'll love the story of this Polish parish! (originally from 10/14/22)

A message from Neil: The Beginning of the Journey I was brought up in a Hindu family, and while I outwardly followed the rituals and customs, I considered myself an atheist Hindu. As I entered University at Cal State Fullerton in 2000, my interactions with diverse individuals and exposure to various music genres sparked a transformative phase in my life. I started writing poetry, which eventually evolved into spoken word performances at open mic events in Orange County. My poetry expressed a deep sense of curiosity, questions, and a longing for spiritual connection and healing. There was an underlying feeling within me that something was missing or out of place in the world. It was during my freshman year in college that I stumbled upon videos featuring four individuals: Nassim Haramein, Jim Self, William Henry and Jordan Maxwell. These videos opened up a whole new world for me, leading me down intriguing paths of exploration. I then discovered the ancient Sumerian Civilization and stories of the Anunnaki. This discovery further led me to the works of Zachariah Sitchin and Erik von Daniken, who extensively researched the Sumerian Scriptures. II: A Journey of Transformation This newfound awareness brought me back to my religious roots, Hinduism, but with an entirely different perspective. I delved deep into the teachings, analyzing and dissecting every aspect. I noticed striking similarities between the information on vibration, quantum physics, and the universe found in the Sumerian Scriptures and the teachings of Hinduism. Vedic awareness spoke of the power of vibration, frequency, meditation, and holistic practices, aligning with the cosmic truths I discovered in the Sumerian Scriptures. It became evident to me that these hidden cosmic truths were embedded within the scriptures. My mind was blown. I read translations of the Sumerian Scriptures that echoed the same stories found in other world religions. Astonishingly, these scriptures predated the stories found in religious texts by thousands of years. Moreover, these similar stories often referred to extraterrestrial beings. This realization led me to understand that many world religions shared common or identical stories with older traditions, and that they were, in fact, referring to extraterrestrial or inter-dimensional beings. This newfound understanding resonated deeply with me, propelling me into a journey of exploration. I delved into the global conspiracies imposed on humanity and the corruption that is so deeply rooted in modern society, as well as an apparent disconnection that I observed in our world. I felt that we as a species were wandering aimlessly, allowing itself to be manipulated and controlled. This realization filled me with anger, as I felt deceived and lied to for my entire life. Everything I had known seemed wrong, although deep down, I had always sensed that something was amiss. I dwelled in the darkness for a while, experiencing fear and confusion, but I was determined to make a difference and help shift consciousness on our planet. III: A Breakthrough In 2006, after six years of intensive research, I created a Facebook group called "2012 Consciousness, Mind, Evolution, and Presence." My intention was to find other seekers and share all the information I had gathered over the years. To my surprise, hundreds of people joined within months, and within a year, the group had grown to a few thousand members. In 2007, I had a paradigm shifting realization, and I changed the name of the group to "Consciousness: Evolution and Presence." Later on, it transformed into "Cosmic Consciousness: Presence" before finally, in the summer of 2008, I had a dream in which I was received the name "Portal To Ascension". During that same summer, I was laid off from my job as a financial analyst, and I met a group of individuals who would become my soul family. It was in the summer of 2008 that Portal to Ascension was born, both in spirit and physicality, with a clear sense of direction. Shortly afterward, we organized our first event at a holistic center in Costa Mesa, California, called "Ginger's Garden Wellness Center." Since that moment until the present day, we have been creating groundbreaking events, culminating in many live conferences and workshops and 1000s of online events. Cosmic Reunion 2012 and Cosmic Reunion: Fourth Density were our first big conferences in Irvine, California, in 2012. The journey of creating and evolving with Portal to Ascension has been an incredible ride of self-discovery, extremely challenges, discomfort, fear, ambition, passion, immense abouts of joy and adventure. Every time I veered away from what I incarnated to do and diverting my energy from Portal to Ascension, synchronicity led me back to this 'work'. I now understand more than ever that this is my life's mission. I am dedicated to bringing together brilliant minds and revolutionaries to inspire and raise awareness worldwide, shifting our reality towards unity, love, and unveiling each individual's true potential. We are at the beginning of a great awakening. This is the moment that has been prophesized for 1000s of years. We have the potential to create the world we wish to live in, and a part of that is the disclosure of inherent truths of our true ancient history, divine potential and connection to the stars. I am so excited to be on this journey with you and thank you so much for being here and a part of Portal to Ascension. With LOVE Neil Gaur Portal to Ascension Founder / CEO

This epsiode includes content related to reproductive organs and sexual health and may not be suitable for all listeners.In this episode, we speak with Dr. Oluwatosin "Tosin" Goje, an Associate Professor of OBGYN and reproductive biology at the Cleveland Clinic. We delve into the critical and often under-discussed topic of female sexual health issues related to chronic genital graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a condition affecting many women post bone marrow transplant.Dr. Goje begins by highlighting the prevalence of sexual dysfunction among female survivors of malignancies, particularly those who have undergone bone marrow transplants. Astonishingly, 80% of female survivors report no significant improvement in their sexual function even five years post-transplant. This issue, often underdiagnosed and unspoken about, affects their quality of life despite their physical recovery.She explains that the persistent sexual dysfunction is multifactorial. Factors include the systemic effects of chronic GVHD, which can cause fatigue and changes in body appearance, making patients feel less attractive. Chronic genital GVHD specifically affects the vulva and vagina, causing changes like thickening, rawness, and atrophy, leading to pain with intimacy, burning, and even bleeding. Additionally, medications can alter libido, and the overall psychosocial burden of their diagnosis and treatment exacerbates these issues.Dr. Goje emphasizes the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to manage these problems. She details the symptoms of genital GVHD and the necessity of individualized treatment plans. Hormone replacement therapy is essential for those with premature ovarian insufficiency or menopause, which can be accelerated by the transplant. Vaginal estrogen or other moisturizers and lubricants are often required, along with immunosuppressants like topical clobetasol to manage inflammation.Communication emerges as a vital theme throughout our conversation. Dr. Goje stresses that healthcare providers need to proactively ask about sexual health issues. Patients, often so grateful for their survival, do not prioritize these concerns. Utilizing validated questionnaires can help initiate these crucial discussions and overcome hesitation to begin the conversation. For patients, Dr. Goji advises regular consultations with a gynecologist and open discussions about their medications and any sexual health issues they experience, even before diagnosis.Addressing the specific needs of younger women, Dr. Goje discusses options like egg freezing before treatment to preserve fertility. She also notes that many foundations and insurance plans provide financial support for these procedures.Dr. Goje highlights the various treatments available for managing sexual dysfunction, including the use of silicone dilators, surgical interventions, and laser therapy. She encourages couples to communicate openly about their sexual health and consider sex therapy or couples therapy to address issues together. For patients experiencing chronic vaginal pain or infections, she recommends appropriate medical treatments, including potential surgery or laser treatment. She emphasizes the need for accurate diagnosis and management.Finally, Dr. Goje shares poignant stories from her practice, illustrating her deep commitment to her patients' holistic health. She reminds us that the goal is not just survival but also ensuring a quality life post-treatment.In another episode this season, we discuss male sexual health as it relates to GVHD.More Information:Cleveland Clinic - https://my.clevelandclinic.orgReplens - https://www.replens.comLuvena -https://luvena.comRevaree Moisturizer: https://hellobonafide.com/products/revareeMonaLisa Touch Laser - https://www.smilemonalisa.comNational Bone Marrow Transplant Link - (800) LINK-BMT, or (800) 546-5268.nbmtLINK Website: https://www.nbmtlink.org/nbmtLINK Facebook Page:  https://www.facebook.com/nbmtLINKnbmtLINK YouTube Page can be found by clicking here.Thank you to our sponsors.

Saturday, 6 July 2024   The Book of Matthew; an Introduction – Part IId   The list of books of the Bible that match the corresponding chapters of the Book of Matthew continues here:   --------------------- *Jeremiah (book 24) speaks more of false prophets than any other book in the Bible. Entire sections are dedicated to false prophets and false prophecies. False prophets are even singled out by name several times.     Here is a Matthew 24 connection –   “At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people” Matthew 24:10, 11.    *Another fantastic parallel is in Jeremiah 31. Here's the book/chapter (24)31 –   “Hear the word of the LORD, O nations; proclaim it in distant coastlands: ‘He who scattered Israel will gather them and will watch over his flock like a shepherd.'” Jeremiah 31:10 (NIV)   Now Matthew 24:31 –   “And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.”   Notice the numbers again (24)31 and 24:31   --------------------- *Lamentations (25th book) says –   “The tongue of the infant clings To the roof of its mouth for thirst; The young children ask for bread, But no one breaks it for them.” Lamentations 4:4   Matthew 25:44 says –   “Then they also will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?'”   Notice again, the immensely accurate verse distinction – (25)4:4 and 25:44!   -------------------------- *Ezekiel (26th book) 5:2 reads –   “When the days of your siege come to an end, burn a third of the hair with fire inside the city. Take a third and strike it with the sword all around the city. And scatter a third to the wind. For I will pursue them with drawn sword.”   Now Matthew 26:52 –   “‘Put your sword back in its place, Jesus said to him, for all who draw the sword will die by the sword.'”   Astonishingly enough is that fact that both books read about the “drawn sword” at the numbers (26)5:2 and 26:52, but also worthy of note is that the term “drawn sword” is mentioned more times in Ezekiel than any other book of the Bible, confirming that this is a valid link.   ----------------------- *Daniel (27th book)  –   “A stone was brought and placed over the mouth of the den, and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the rings of his nobles, so that Daniel's situation might not be changed” Daniel 6:17.   Now read Matthew 27:66 –    “So they went and made the tomb secure by putting a seal on the stone and posting the guard.”   Glorious!   *Again in Daniel, the 9th chapter –   “...in the first year of his reign I, Daniel, understood by the books the number of the years specified by the word of the Lord through Jeremiah the prophet, that He would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.”   Now read Matthew 27:9 –   “Then what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled.”   Notice the intricacy: Jeremiah is quoted in Daniel (27)9 and Matthew 27:9.   ----------------------- *Hosea (28th book) 2:15 reads –   “There I will give her back her vineyards, and will make the Valley of Achor a door of hope.” (Achor means trouble.)   Matthew 28:2 says –   “And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat on it.”   If you look at the comparison, it fits very well. God said in Hosea that He would make the valley of trouble a door of hope, and the ending of all our trouble (in and from death) came as the stone was rolled away from the door of the tomb! As usual, notice the numbers (28)2 and 28:2!   *A second marvelous parallel is Hosea 6:3 –   “Let us acknowledge the Lord;     let us press on to acknowledge him. As surely as the sun rises,     he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains,     like the spring rains that water the earth” (NIV).   Now read Matthew 28:6 –   “He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.”   The parallel cannot be mistaken! Just as we were in search of God, He came to us, proving it when He arose and appeared in the morning. And once again, we have the astonishing numerical parallel: (28)6:3 and 28:6!   ----------------------- If you have enjoyed these patterns, we will provide one more fantastic numerical pattern that runs outside of the 28 chapters of Matthew but instead links to the 40th chapter of Isaiah and corresponds to Matthew, the 40th book of the Bible –   Isaiah 40:3 says –   “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord; Make straight in the desert A highway for our God.'”   Now Matthew 3:3 –   “For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying: ‘The voice of one crying in the wilderness: “Prepare the way of the Lord; Make His paths straight.”'”   The interesting thing about this is that Matthew is the 40th book of the Bible. The parallel then is Isaiah 40:3. Matthew (40)3:3.    Life application: The issue concerning the matter that the book, chapter, and verse divisions did not exist at the time Matthew penned his gospel was discussed in a previous introductory commentary.   It was then discussed that just because dispensationalism was not properly understood or taught until much later in the church age, it does not mean that it is not a valid teaching. The fallacy of Chronological Snobbery was then discussed, showing that it is not proper to assume something is incorrect simply because it is new.   But why would God allow the church to go through 1800 years of incorrect thinking if dispensationalism is correct? The answer is obvious when thought through. If the church knew that the return of Jesus for His church and the establishment of His earthly millennial kingdom was based on the return of the Jewish people to the land, it would have become the main passion and mission of the church to make that happen.   However, Israel had a time of punishment preset by God in order to fulfill their promised punishments according to the Law of Moses. That needed to be fulfilled. Also, the church's main mission was specifically given by Jesus in Matthew 28 –   “And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.' Amen.”   These words were the Lord's post-resurrection command to the church. Those so directed didn't quite get it the first time, and so they asked Him about future matters before He ascended. When they did, He reiterated His directive to them one final time –   “Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, ‘Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?' 7 And He said to them, ‘It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. 8 But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.'” Acts 1:6-8   The disciples were looking forward to the kingdom age. The church, if it realized all that God was doing, would have been looking for the resurrection of the dead and the rapture so that they could be with the Lord. If it was understood that Jesus would return when Israel was in the land once again, that is all people in the church would be working towards. An entire planet of people needs to hear the gospel, but the church would be working on reestablishing one little people group into a teeny slice of land in the Middle East. Things would not have worked out well. If you want proof that this would be the case, look at today's modern rapture-seeking crowd. They literally spend all of their time reading about the rapture, watching videos about the rapture, calculating the timing of the rapture, scolding others about their mistaken priorities, and never spending a moment of the day doing what they should be doing – as commanded by the Lord Himself.   Don't be like these people. Read the word! Study the word! Tell people the gospel! And then baptize and disciple those you tell. If you don't do these things, you are being disobedient to the very words Jesus instructed you to do in the word that you fail to pick up and read!   Lord God, help people (including us!) to have properly directed priorities concerning our duties as instructed by You in Your word. May we be faithful and obedient followers and doers concerning what we have been instructed. To Your glory, we pray. Amen.

Send us a Text Message.This week's podcast guest is Julia Kraemer from the Leftovers Foundation, a Canadian non-profit on a vital mission to reduce food waste and enhance food access.The foundation rescues perfectly edible food destined for landfills, thereby preventing greenhouse gas emissions and delivering this food to those in need through the work of dedicated volunteers.Julia sheds light on the critical issues of food security and insecurity, revealing that nearly 9 million Canadians face some level of food insecurity, driven by income inequality and lack of access. Astonishingly, one-third of the food wasted in Canada could feed every Canadian experiencing hunger. Julia's insights and the impactful work of Leftovers offer valuable lessons on a global issue.She also helps us understand the environmental impact of food waste.  Food rotting in landfills produces methane 25 times as potent as CO2 at trapping heat in the atmosphere. If global food waste was a country, it would be the third greatest greenhouse gas emitter in the world! We learned so much from Julia about these important issues and how organizations like Leftovers are doing amazing work to help bridge the gap.

In this interview on the Integrative Cancer Solutions podcast, Denise Stevenson shares her transformative journey following a breast cancer diagnosis at age 50. Initially dismissing some health signs, she eventually visited her doctor upon returning to France from the UK, which led to a diagnosis of breast cancer. Faced with a daunting treatment plan that included a mastectomy, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, Denise explored integrative approaches alongside conventional treatments. She fasted during chemotherapy, changed her diet, exercised, and utilized various supplements and essential oils. Astonishingly, within 11 weeks, her tumor had disappeared. She later opted for a lumpectomy instead of a mastectomy, and has remained cancer-free for six years.Denise emphasizes the importance of integrative cancer care, combining traditional medical treatments with holistic approaches to support the body and mind. She highlights the psychological impact of cancer treatment and the lack of personal understanding she felt from her medical team. Inspired by her experience and the support she received from various resources, Denise created a website to share information and provide hope to others facing similar diagnoses. Driven by her successful outcome and the desire to support others, Denise created a comprehensive website offering resources on cancer and other health conditions.

The speculation surrounding the potential Vice Presidential candidate for Donald Trump has been the talk of the town. Trump shared via his Truth Social account recently, his sentiments regarding Nikki Haley, an eminent figure in the Republican party. While there was talk about her potentially being in line for the V.P role, Trump firmly dismissed such rumors. Astonishingly, his message on his social media was outright and simple: 'Nikki Haley is not up for the role of the Vice President, but she has my best wishes.' His posts came soon after the news that she was a possible contender by Axios. This announcement comes at a time when the relationship between Trump and Haley continues to remain frosty, a testament to the competitive nature of politics within the GOP. However, some sources believe that Trump might consider Nikki Haley if it becomes clear that her selection could favor his presidential campaign. The media report stated that if Trump could secure victory in the upcoming presidential election with Haley as his companion, it could provide him with some much-needed financial and legal relief. Both Trump and Haley's representatives remained silent on Friday when grilled about the possibility.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Life is not easy. Especially not in the Bay Area. And if we're honest, the stresses of daily life - especially here in Silicon Valley - can not just overwhelm us, but trap us in the doldrums of malaise. So we increase the amount of entertainment or stimulation in an attempt to feel something - but this can have the reverse effect on us: making us numb to life. So...how can we live with joy? Real, true flourishing where we embrace the incredible wonders of life? Astonishingly, more than two centuries ago, a man named Paul tackled that exact question. And his answer was as perplexing back then as it is today. Paul says that true joy is possible, even in the worst of circumstances. He says that the path to JOY is not found by leading yourself, but following Jesus. Paul says that surrender leads to freedom, that decrease leads to increase and that death leads to life. We'll dive into this short letter from Paul to his friends, and find that it's as relevant today as it was back then. SPEAKERS: Jay Kim (Saratoga), video (South Hills) Bible Passage(s): John 4:5-18

The Bible says that when Jesus taught, people were astonished. His “Sermon on the Mount” shows his amazing communicative power, as he shares insights on prayer, fasting, serving, and knowing God's heart. Unfortunately, many of us take his transformative teaching for granted, and have grown complacent in our faith. Jesus challenges us to live astonishing lives, emboldened by his righteousness and graciousness. Join Horizon for this Equipping series as we go verse-by-verse through the astonishing book of Matthew.

Last Wednesday, President Joe Biden confirmed his presidential pen's application to a new national security package. This legislation advances a strategic allocation of $60 billion for the Ukrainian nation, an unprecedented $26 billion to assist Israel, and a tactical $8 billion for nurturing relationships in the Indo-Pacific region. A fair share of the budget is also set aside for the purpose of humanitarian assistance in Gaza. In this stout-hearted endeavor to augment the tenets of global security, a unique provision finds a mention, concerning the grand oriental technological conglomerate, ByteDance. ByteDance, the parent company of the much sought-after social media platform TikTok, is obligated corporate entity under this new law. The newly signed act mandates that ByteDance sell off its asset TikTok to an American corporation within the upcoming 12 months or risk finding itself in the grip of a permanent prohibition in American territories. 'This legislation has charted an arduous course to find its way to my table. Ideally, the journey should have been relatively more straightforward and speedy,' echoed President Biden after he inked his signature on the pivotal new law. He added, 'But more importantly, America, in its proverbial spirit, once again rose to the occasion. We prevailed against the odds.' The progression of the legislation didn't proceed without resistance, running into a substantial roadblock from the Republican representatives of the House. Astonishingly, it failed to garner majority support from within the dominant party. Despite this setback, Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House from the Republican side, together with his left-wing contemporaries, commandeered the legislative piece to the floor of the House.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A new wave of anti-obesity drugs led by Wegovy (also known as Ozempic) are causing huge ripples in the medical world and popular culture. Astonishingly successful at helping people lose weight, these drugs both offer a tantalising solution to the obesity epidemic and its associated public health crisis, and have also made the pharma companies which own them staggeringly rich as demand rockets ever upwards. But ‘curing' obesity with a weekly injection massively challenges how our culture has long viewed it, as not a medical condition to be treated but a moral failure of self-control to be repented of. Is it unwise to encourage a pharmacological fix to obesity and abandon the age-old method of ‘eat less, exercise more'? And, as our understanding of the hormonal and neuroscientific roots of cravings for food, alcohol and drugs improves, what will this mean for a Christian understanding of free will? Can we still hold onto the idea of personal responsibility for sin, if science can explain how our genetics led us to make those bad choices? • Subscribe to the Matters of Life and Death podcast: https://pod.link/1509923173 • If you want to go deeper into some of the topics we discuss, visit John's website: http://www.johnwyatt.com • For more resources to help you explore faith and the big questions, visit: http://www.premierunbelievable.com

A high-profile chief executive in the shipping sector, Angela Chao, tragically lost her life last month in Texas after her car plunged into a pond. The tragic episode transpired under the influence of excessive alcohol, as per a recent report from the Blanco County Sheriff's Office. Labelled as an unfortunate misfortune, the report noted Chao's blood alcohol concentration was nearly triple the legal limit as allowed by the state. The incident took place on the fateful night of February 10, a night that began with a warm gathering and dinner with an expansive group of friends. The rather rural setting of a ranch near Johnson City, located to the west of Austin, was where Chao spent her final hours. The tranquility of the locale was disrupted when Chao's Tesla found its way into a nearby pond. Her vehicle, a Tesla, miscued and moved back into the water close to a guest house on the ranch, painted a frantic scene that unfolded. Swift efforts by those present and deputies ensued to extract Chao form her sinking car. As the vehicle slipped further into the depths, Chao was still inside, leading to a desperate struggle for rescue. In her final moments, Angela Chao managed to contact her friend Amber Keinan at 11:42 p.m., trapped inside her vehicle as it began to submerge. The next 8 minutes were filled with fear and helplessness as Chao explained her dire predicament. The misfortune was magnified by her telling Keinan that the car was sinking, and she was facing an imminent and unavoidable fate. With love in her voice and acceptance in her heart, Chao conveyed her love to her friend, as shared in the report. Recognizing the gravity of the situation, she made her final adieus to Keinan. Her fearless confession of impending doom prompted immediate rescue attempts by those present. In desperation to bring her to safety, friends plunged into the water while another made a rushed journey toward the vehicle in a kayak. The severity of the situation prompted a 911 call at 11:55 p.m., with the caller managing to stay on the line dispensing critical information for an extended 11-minute call. Upon their arrival, emergency services including sheriff deputies and firefighters, sprang into action. Determined attempts were made to access the submerged Tesla, perpetuating the aerial feeling of urgency. They managed to penetrate the car by breaking the window on the driver's side, initiating the extraction process. In the swirling darkness and confusion, a deputy found and secured Chao's hand. With the help of multiple attending emergency crews, Chao was pulled from her car. Unfortunately, despite such valiant efforts, she was pronounced deceased upon reaching the shore. The time of death was confirmed as 1:40 a.m. on February 11. Subsequent toxicological investigations produced decisive, albeit unfortunate, results. The official report revealed a high blood alcohol concentration of 0.233 grams per 100 milliliters, placing it significantly above Texas's legal limit of 0.08. The array of events leading to the incident paints a solemn picture of Chao's final hours. Angela Chao was a profound executive figure in her family's business venture, the Foremost Group, helming the operations as the chair and CEO. Astonishingly, her responsibilities didn't end here. She was also the president of her father's charitable establishment, the Foremost Foundation, making notable contributions to her community. Residing in Austin, about 50 miles east of Blanco County, she was a cherished member of her community. As the youngest of six sisters in an immigrant family from China who moved to the U.S. in the late 1950s, Chao's absence resonates deeply. She was a beacon of success, a representative of the Asian-American community. In the aftermath of Angela Chao's departure, the loss felt by her family has been profound. Her father, James S.C. Chao, conveyed that her Chinese name echoed the terms peace and prosperity. With her passing, a void has been created, not just in the hearts of her family but the entire Asian-American community. In acknowledging the invaluable contribution of Angela, her father assumed the position of chairman of the Foremost Group following her demise. In addition, Michael Lee, another accomplished executive and former president, assumed the role of the president. These changes reflect the legacy that Chao left behind. Angela Chao is survived by her husband, her father, and her four sisters. Her untimely and tragic death has left them along with countless others mourning the unexpected loss. Despite the unfavorable circumstances that led to her death, Angela's memory and her contributions will continue to bear weight in hearts and memories of those who knew her. While the tragedy has resulted in the loss of an influential figure in the business and philanthropic sectors, it also conveys a cautionary reminder about the devastating consequences of driving under the influence. It's a poignant tale of a night that started with celebrations but ended in an unfortunate tragedy, permanently marking February 10 with profound sorrow.

Mark Ormrod who dared to chase his dreams, entered the Royal Marines in 2011, determined to make a difference. Little did he know that his life would take a harrowing turn on Christmas Eve 2007 while serving in Afghanistan with 40 Commando Royal Marines. Mark faced the unimaginable - a devastating improvised explosive device explosion that resulted in the traumatic amputation of both legs and his right arm. Astonishingly, he was twice pronounced dead. Mark defied all expectations, emerging as the first triple amputee to survive on the battlefield. A mere 14 weeks after being told he would never walk again, he astounded everyone by marching onto a parade on his new prosthetic limbs to receive the Operational Service Medal from HRH the Duke of Edinburgh. Despite his horrific injuries, he remains genuinely humble, refusing to let his disability define him. Living life with the mantra 'no limits,' Mark has inspired thousands of Royal Marines and tens of thousands more to embrace their full potential.

When the Jewish people were trapped at Yam Suf , they cried out to Hashem in prayer to help them. Astonishingly, Hashem said to Moshe, Why are they crying out to me? Tell them to march forward. The Ohr HaChaim writes there, “I don't understand. Who else should they call out to if not Hashem? Especially at a time of need, prayer is always the way we get help from Hashem. And even if they already prayed, the rule is, so long as a person has not been answered, he is supposed to continue praying.” The Ohr HaChaim answered based on the words of the Zohar HaKadosh , that at that time the Jewish people had a midat hadin upon them, because they were on a very low spiritual level, still involved with avodah zarah . According to the rules, even with prayer, they were not going to be saved. Hashem told Moshe they needed a zechut that would strengthen the midat harachamim , and that zechut would come if they would go into the Yam Suf with complete trust in Hashem that He would save them. This was not an easy task. Even after Moshe Rabbenu told them what to do, it required a heroic effort of Nachshon ben Aminadav to start the process. And the sea did not split until the water almost drowned them. It was the continued trust in Hashem, despite what it seemed, that gave the people the zechut of that miracle. Trusting in Hashem is an extremely powerful zechut . There are times when people find themselves trapped in certain difficulties, and they are searching for ways to escape them. If the person can get himself to trust that it was all set up by Hashem, and the same Hashem who brought about the difficulty can easily save him from it, that would be an enormous zechut . The person has to feel in his heart a special feeling, that his loving father is in charge, who wants to help him. And perhaps that trust could be the zechut he needs. A man who has a real estate business related, over the past year his business has been declining. Almost a year ago, he lost one of his key tenants, which put him at risk with his mortgage with the bank. This tenant was a very reputable company, which the bank trusted in. And so when the tenant left, besides for the $8,000 a month the landlord would be losing, he was also losing his trust with the bank. Recently his mortgage was up for review, and he was already a few days late with his current payment. It was in the tens of thousands of dollars, and he did not have the money to pay. The one thing that he did have was emunah. He was completely calm about the matter. He knows he made his normal hishtadlut , and it was all in Hashem's hands. He was able to go to sleep every night without any worry. His friends said that his emunah was inspiring. He had run out of people to borrow from, and his business seemed to be in jeopardy of closing down. With steadfast emunah, he continued moving forward every day with his regular schedule. And then the yeshua came in the blink of an eye. He received a check in the mail for $96,000 from the city of New York. And just like that his problems were solved. Two years before this, the city asked him if they could use the roof of his building to put scaffolding on to work on a neighboring building. He declined their requests until they offered a significant amount of money, $8,000 a month. He agreed and asked for a contract. It seemed too good to be true, and when they never got back to him, it appeared it wasn't going to happen. Now, almost two years later, they sent him the contract with one full year's rent in advance. Not only did he make up the $8,000 he lost from that other tenant, he also got a very trustworthy tenant that the bank was happy with, the city of New York. His mortgage got renewed, his business continues to exist, and his emunah continues to get stronger. The power of trust in Hashem is truly wondrous.

Arresting Corrupt Officers First Day As US Marshal. Plus, Anti terrorism mission overseas to Middle East. One of them was killed on 9-11. Arresting two Law Enforcement Officers on my first day as the US Marshal marked the beginning of an extraordinary Federal career. This journey led me to undertake anti-terrorism missions overseas in the Middle East, where one of my colleagues fell victim to the 9/11 terror attacks. Astonishingly, the echoes of those tragic events persist, with some of the same issues and radical hate still prevailing. In his riveting memoir, "Jersey Lawman: A Life On the Right Side of Crime," author James Plousis recounts over four decades of involvement in captivating cases and issues within the realm of law enforcement. From encounters with notable figures like Donald J. Trump, Bernie Madoff, and Chris Christie to pivotal moments such as 9/11, Hurricane Katrina, and Little Nicky Scarfo, Plousis shares a life dedicated to serving justice. Arresting Corrupt Officers First Day As US Marshal. TV personality John Walsh hails the book as the story of "a remarkable career in law enforcement." The narrative unfolds in clear, straightforward prose, offering insights into Plousis' roles as a sheriff, cop, and federal agent. Actor Brian Dennehy, who has portrayed various law enforcement roles, commends the real-life account of a sheriff and U.S. marshal in New Jersey, describing Plousis as a man dedicated to making communities safer. "Jersey Lawman" received recognition from the Public Safety Writers Association, earning the second-best non-fiction book award in 2020. This accolade not only acknowledges the gripping narrative but also supports a noble cause. The book's proceeds contribute to the U.S. Marshals Survivors Benefit Fund, a charitable organization providing assistance to the surviving family members of those who sacrificed their lives in the line of duty. Arresting Corrupt Officers First Day As US Marshal. Plousis, whose journey began as a police officer in Ocean City, NJ, went on to become the youngest elected county sheriff in America. His innovative approaches to law enforcement during five terms as sheriff garnered national recognition. Appointed as U.S. marshal by President George W. Bush in 2002, Plousis played a crucial role in implementing the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Safe Surrender program in the Garden State and worked on high-profile cases domestically and abroad. Following seven years as chairman of the New Jersey Parole Board, he now chairs the Casino Control Commission in Atlantic City. "Jersey Lawman" not only unveils professional achievements but also shares personal endeavors, including a humanitarian mission to earthquake-ravaged Haiti. The collaboration between Plousis and freelance writer George Ingram ensures that the book's proceeds contribute to a worthy cause—supporting the families of fallen U.S. marshals. Arresting Corrupt Officers First Day As US Marshal. The Public Safety Writers Association, founded in 1997, recognizes the significance of this memoir, welcoming both experienced and new writers in the field of public safety.

Vangunu, one of the Solomon Islands, is home to a giant species of rodent called Vika. Astonishingly, this rare and very large rat has jaws so powerful it can bite through a coconut shell! That made me think of Rep. Jim Jordan, the GOP’s rattiest, far-right-wing congress critter. There is no documented proof that this extremist partisan was raised on Vangunu, but he sure keeps gnawing on Joe and Hunter Biden, desperately trying to crack open a scandal that simply doesn’t exist. Vikas are powerful, but they’ve not been accused of being smart.

Democrats are increasingly protesting their fellow Democrats, as the Biden administration's support for Israel is literally shattering the left!  Highlights:  “While Republican voters are overwhelmingly pro-Israel, about 80% of Republican voters back Israel's campaign against Hamas, the situation is very different when it comes to the Democrats.
