Regenerative design is a way of building that heals our planet and our communities by halting biodiversity loss, reversing climate change, and improving social equity. Over the last decade, the nonprofit design practice MASS has proven that we can yield positive social, environmental, and economic results through a series of projects in Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Seeking Abundance: Design, Ecology and a Flourishing Planet (Axio, 2026) argues for reducing the harm our building activities wage in our environments and that we can—and must—help people and the planet thrive together. The proof? MASS's projects represent a coherent and replicable philosophy that responds to local ecologies and transforms lives. This groundbreaking new book, co-edited by Sierra Bainbridge and Alan Ricks, examines how the power of multidisciplinary collaboration, regenerative practices, and community engagement can actively contribute to a healthier, more harmonious world. The evidence of these works can be found in three case studies, focusing on The Rwanda Institute for Conservation Agriculture, The Ellen DeGeneres Campus of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund, and The Ilima Primary School.

We all have a bit of a "control freak" inside us. When God feels distant or "up there," we often grab the steering wheel of our lives, convinced we know best. But God's heart has always been to move closer. From the smoke and thunder of Mount Sinai to the Tabernacle in the center of the camp, God has been making a way to be with His people. Come discover how surrendering our need for control opens the door to experiencing the presence of the God.
Life can feel uncertain, overwhelming, and even hopeless at times. The Israelites suffered under brutal slavery in Egypt. But God was not absent – He saw their suffering, heard their cries, and acted in power to deliver them. Through Moses, the plagues, the Passover, and the Red Sea, God revealed both His power and His personal care. Come hear the story of God's deliverance of the Israelites from slavery and learn how God delivers us from our slavery to sin.
Alan Ricks and Sierra Bainbridge are founding members of Model of Architecture Serving Society (MASS). Alan, an architect and co-executive director, and Sierra, director of the Landscape Studio and Abundant Futures Lab, are co-authors of the new book, Seeking Abundance: Design, Ecology, and a Flourishing Planet, that looks at MASS's work across three projects as examples of multidisciplinary collaboration, regenerative practices, and community engagement. In this conversation, Jarrett talks with Alan and Sierra about MASS's structure as a non-profit, architecture for the more-than-human, and why design should not be about minimizing harm but rather maximizing abundance.

Generations passed since God had wiped humanity's slate clean with the flood, but mankind didn't learn. And yet God wasn't finished; he promised to launch his plan of redemption through Abram. But then nothing happens for decades. Come and learn about faith when the timeline stretches, answers don't come, and doubts creep in.
Paul Merriman sits down with Larry Swedroe — author of 22 books and one of the most respected voices in evidence-based investing — for a conversation that covers everything from the five factors that actually matter to why Bitcoin might go to zero.Larry explains why judging your investment decisions by their outcomes is one of the most dangerous mistakes you can make, lays out the academic criteria he uses to separate real factor premiums from data mining, and reveals that he's made only three tactical moves in 30 years of investing. He and Paul use three eye-opening slides to show why chasing recent winners almost guarantees you'll underperform.They also dig into why growth stocks don't deliver the returns most people expect (hint: the growth rate is already in the price), why traditional index funds are "dumb traders" bleeding money to hedge funds, and how AI will make markets harder to beat — not easier.The audience Q&A covers emerging markets, the updated "Larry Portfolio," crypto, private equity, and which fund families Larry actually trusts with his own money.Part of the Spring Financial Education Series hosted by the Bainbridge Community Foundation in partnership with the Merriman Financial Education Foundation.LINKS & RESOURCES: "Enrich Your Future" — Larry Swedroe "Your Complete Guide to Factor-Based Investing" — Larry Swedroe & Andrew Berkin "Your Complete Guide to a Successful and Secure Retirement" — Larry Swedroe Larry Swedroe on Substack: https://larryswedroe.substack.com The Hidden Flaw in Style Index FundsThe Hidden Costs of Index Replication: What Every Investor Needs to Know AboutAdverse Effects of Index ReplicationWatch the video here.Coming up in this series: Christine Benz (Morningstar), Mike Piper, and Bill Bernstein.
Creation, corruption, catastrophe. So goes the first part of the human story. Our mighty Creator is far too good to be close to rebellious people like us. But no matter how much he's allergic to our sin, he deeply loves us and wants us. When you read the start of The Story, you can't help but feel both unworthiness and acceptance. God is on a mission to bridge the gap between us and win back our straying hearts.
What does it actually take to move from a solo practitioner at a home desk to leading a high-profile architectural firm? In this episode, R. Kenner French sits down with Matthew Coates, a visionary architect based on Bainbridge Island, to peel back the curtain on the evolution of modern design.Matthew shares a raw look at the "unemployable" spirit that drives entrepreneurs to step out on their own and why "half-assing" a business venture is the fastest road to failure. From navigating the complexities of high-end residential projects to exploring the untapped potential of artificial intelligence in the creative arts, this conversation is a masterclass in staying relevant in a rapidly shifting marketplace.
Whether you know him from his award-winning and bestselling novel set in Puget Sound, Snow Falling on Cedars, or his columns in Pacific Northwest publications, Bainbridge writer David Guterson may be one of our region's most well-known writers. He's written a new novel, Evelyn in Transit, which explores what it means to live a righteous life, maybe even in spite of our imperfections. Guterson's novel introduces Evelyn Bednarz, who is radically open-minded, formidably strong, and unusually clear-eyed about herself and others. Yet Evelyn has always been a misfit in society. She's easily bored, unsuited to life at school, asks odd questions about faith and time, and sees through conventions others take for granted. Seeking to be true to herself, she hitchhikes across the American West, taking odd jobs. Meanwhile, in distant Tibet, another life unfolds: the life of a boy named Tsering, raised as a Buddhist monk in the mountains of Tibet, who eventually becomes a high lama. And yet, Evelyn and Tsering are linked, which Evelyn discovers when a trio of Buddhist lamas show up at her door to announce that her five-year-old son, Cliff, is the seventh reincarnation of the illustrious Norbu Rinpoche, recently deceased. The lamas' visit sets off a family crisis and a media firestorm over Cliff's future. As he's done in his other writing, Guterson links the Pacific Northwest with universal human truths. Evelyn in Transit asks us what it might mean to "live the right way," and to closely examine humanity's strivings for transcendence. David Guterson is the author of several novels: the national best seller Snow Falling on Cedars; East of the Mountains; Our Lady of the Forest, a New York Times Notable Book and a Los Angeles Times Best Book of the Year; The Other; and Ed King. He is also the author of two story collections, two books of poetry, a memoir, and the work of nonfiction Family Matters: Why Homeschooling Makes Sense. The recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, he lives in Washington state. Karen Maeda Allman is a bookseller alum, having worked for over 30 years at Independent Bookstores (including as author events co-coordinator for the Elliott Bay Book Company). She has served on many jury and awards panels, including for the National Book Award for Translated Literature, the DSC Prize and the Kirkus Prize for Nonfiction. She's currently at Wales Literary Agency and also serves on the Board of Seattle Arts and Lectures. Buy the Book Evelyn in Transit: A Novel Elliott Bay Book Company

Currencies of Cruelty: Slavery, Freak Shows, and the Performance Archive (NYU Press, 2026) is a bold and incisive reconsideration of the relationship between enslavement, disability, and performance in 19th- and early 20th-century America; a time when transition from slavery to legal freedom became entangled with the spectacle of the freak show stage, where disabled and racialized performers became lucrative attractions. At the heart of this powerful study are conjoined twins Millie Christine McKoy, born into slavery and later emancipated, and the so-called “original Siamese Twins,” Chang and Eng Bunker, who navigated the freak show circuit not only as performers but also as enslavers. Their stories reveal how archival practices surrounding enslavement and performance labor worked in tandem, creating a system where unfree and newly freed bodies were simultaneously valued and devalued—exploited for their spectacle yet rendered abject within traditional labor economies. Blending historical analysis with innovative archival theory, Currencies of Cruelty challenges conventional narratives of labor, freedom, and human worth. A gripping exploration of race, commerce, and bodily spectacle, this book sheds crucial light on how histories of subjugation continue to shape our understanding of value and visibility today. Author Danielle Bainbridge is an Assistant Professor of Theatre at Northwestern University, where she also holds courtesy appointments in Performance Studies and Black Studies.

In 2006, Michael was in his early 30s living in New York City as a Tibetan Buddhist Novice Monk. It was an average afternoon in his apartment when he retreated to the bedroom to do his regular meditation practice only that, at some point, he woke up from his meditation in his 15 year old body, in Bainbridge, Washington, back in 1990.

“He will never find God.” “She's a lost cause.” Too little, too late. If we took the time to think about it we could come up with a list of many people we think are too far gone to be reached by Jesus. In the early church there was one man who would have topped everyone's list. He was enemy #1, the biggest opponent to Christianity, and the biggest zealot imaginable. Join us as we see how God transformed Saul's life and the impact that one moment still has on our lives today.
There will always be both false conversions and ignorant converts within the gathering of God's people. This Sunday we will encounter the first wolf in sheep's clothing of the early church. How they responded to this threat to the community will teach us how to avoid becoming distracted and instead continue to spread the Good News in communities everywhere we go.
What happens when survival refuses to stay hidden? On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Sana, Danielle Bainbridge shares the story behind Dandelion and what it means to write honestly about bipolar depression, identity, and being misread by the systems meant to help. This episode is for listeners navigating mental health struggles, stigma, or the weight of being unseen. It offers language, perspective, and a gentler way to think about shame, self-advocacy, and telling the truth without softening your life for others. About the Guest: Danielle Bainbridge is the author of Dandelion, a memoir about living with bipolar depression. She speaks openly about diagnosis, psychiatric care, identity, and the realities behind mental health stigma. Episode Chapter: 00:10:10 — Why this conversation matters 00:11:49 — Why Danielle wrote Dandelion 00:15:50 — The danger of romanticizing bipolar disorder 00:20:36 — Fear, stigma, and being judged 00:22:21 — When identity shapes diagnosis and care 00:26:44 — Moving beyond shame 00:30:13 — Is this level of honesty too much? Key Takeaways: Honest storytelling can help people feel less alone. Mental illness should not be glamorized or simplified. Shame often delays care and self-understanding.

What are you willing to die for? This is a daunting question, but one man named Stephen had a clear answer. When faced with opposition, he became an eloquent and forceful speaker with an unforgettable opportunity to give a history lesson and the gospel to the same religious leaders who convicted Jesus. Stephen's courage in the face of death shows us what he was living for. In the face of seeming defeat, the Jesus Revolution grows stronger!
This women's history month, Donna & Jonathan are graced with the presence, knowledge and insight of Danielle Bainbridge - Assistant Professor of Theatre at Northwestern University, where she also holds courtesy appointments in Performance Studies and African American Studies. Her writing has been featured in Killens Review of Arts & Letters, Moko Magazine, and The Mechanics' Institute Review Online.Discovering the journey Danielle took from adolescence to adulthood, we come to the writing of her most recent book debut CURRENCIES OF CRUELTY: Slavery, Freak Shows, and the Performance Archive that explores how formerly enslaved people and disabled individuals were commodified through 19th- and 20th-century freak shows, examining figures like conjoined twins Millie Christine McKoy and Chang and Eng Bunker to reveal the intersection of slavery, disability, and performance. Through innovative archival theory and the concept of the "future perfect" archive — a system that anticipates what will have been rather than simply documenting the past — Bainbridge challenges established ways of documenting labor, freedom, and human worth, demonstrating how archival practices have historically represented enslaved and disabled performers as commodities and spectacles while devaluing them as people, showing how records of subjugation continue to shape current understandings of value and visibility.Purchase the Book:https://nyupress.org/9781479829569/currencies-of-cruelty/Code for 30% off NYUAU30Watch on YouTube:https://youtu.be/TNvfUl2Qh_s?si=gHRafSVaqyJRH_f3Contact Danielle:Danielle.bainbridge@northwestern.eduhttps://bsky.app/profile/daniellebainbridge.bsky.socialInstagram:@quirkyprofessor_@NowWeKnowThePodcast@DonnaJaneen

Nate makes a special trip to Boston to sit down with Haley Winn of the U.S. Women's Hockey Team following her gold medal performance at the 2026 Olympic Winter Games in Italy. Haley grew up in Rochester and also has strong family ties to Bainbridge, where she has spent significant time over the years. That local connection makes this moment even more meaningful. She played a major role on the blue line for Team USA during the tournament, recording one goal, three assists, and a +11 rating. After a decorated Division-I career at Clarkson University, Haley was drafted second overall by the Boston Fleet in the 2025 Professional Women's Hockey League Draft. This special presentation is broken into three parts: Nate's introduction, a press conference with Haley and the media, and an exclusive one-on-one sit-down with Nate. Thank you to the Fleet for hosting this event at the Boston Sports Institute. Thanks to Haley's family for their support and assistance. Mixing by Robert Child.
Growth can be difficult. Growing comes with growing pains. Whether it's growing a family, growing a business, or growing the church. What do we do when things go wrong? When things get overlooked and things are not as they are meant to be. Perhaps God has prepared you to step into the mess and be the solution you never thought you could be. Join us on Sunday as we see how the church handled some of its own growing pains and discover how God is still using people today to do great things.
“Church is a bunch of hypocrites!” How many times have you heard this statement used? What if instead of trying to argue our way out of this statement, we leaned into it, acknowledged the truth in it, and learned how to recognize and repent of our own hypocrisy. Join us this Sunday as we dive into a time in the early church where hypocrisy was called out, and there was a great opportunity to grow closer to God.
As the church was beginning there was one man named Joseph whose encouragement and generosity sparked a generosity movement that left no needy people among them. Come join us on Sunday to learn how the resurrection of Jesus can inspire radical unity and genuine generosity in our community.
Tension is rising in our society, and fear often shapes how people live and speak. Staying quiet often feels safer than standing out. Jesus' followers in the early church faced real threats and intense opposition—instead of backing down, they became boldly unstoppable. Let's learn from their courage this Sunday!
Although she's been a theater actress for most of her life, Jenna Bainbridge never envisioned herself performing on the grandest of stages -- Broadway. The issue wasn't one of talent or confidence, but rather, accessibility. Partially paralyzed as a child, Bainbridge didn't think she'd find the accommodations necessary for her to live and work in New York. However she's now performing on Broadway in the long-running hit, Wicked.
In this episode of “At Your Convenience,” CSP Editor Chuck Ulie talks with Michelle Weckstein, director of food and beverage brands for Southwest Georgia Oil Co., Bainbridge, Georgia, which operates the SunStop convenience-store chain. They discuss how GLP-1 drugs used for weight loss are affecting the demand for items with protein at convenience stores.On this podcast, Weckstein also talks about how SunStop recognized the GLP-1 diet phenomenon early on—and how her company feels that this is a trend that's going to be around for a while.Click here to learn more about our CRU event!
The early church was filled with messed up people, but in a culture of scarcity, persecution, and suffering, they thrived. Solid teaching, deep connection, commitment to spiritual habits, and extreme generosity marked this early movement, and has marked every healthy Jesus Revolution since. Let's learn from them this Sunday!
120 followers gathering indoors receive the promised Holy Spirit and the church is born. Peter confronts the people who condemned Jesus to death with the Word of God as it is being fulfilled. Repentance was their only proper next step, one that 3,000 took that very day. Come find the courage to speak out for Jesus to those in your life.
Editor Abigail Bainbridge and contributing author Sonja Schwoll join this discussion of Conservation of Books (Routledge 2023), the highly anticipated reference work on global book structures and their conservation. Offering the first modern, comprehensive overview on this subject, this volume takes an international approach. Written by over 70 specialists in conservation and conservation science based in 19 countries, its 26 chapters cover traditional book structures from around the world, the materials from which they are made and how they degrade, and how to preserve and conserve them. It also examines the theoretical underpinnings of conservation: what and how to treat, and the ethical, cultural, and economic implications of treatment. Technical drawings and photographs illustrate the structures and treatments examined throughout the book. Ultimately, readers gain an in-depth understanding of the materiality of books in numerous global contexts and reflect on the practical considerations involved in their analysis and treatment.

Editor Abigail Bainbridge and contributing author Sonja Schwoll join this discussion of Conservation of Books (Routledge 2023), the highly anticipated reference work on global book structures and their conservation. Offering the first modern, comprehensive overview on this subject, this volume takes an international approach. Written by over 70 specialists in conservation and conservation science based in 19 countries, its 26 chapters cover traditional book structures from around the world, the materials from which they are made and how they degrade, and how to preserve and conserve them. It also examines the theoretical underpinnings of conservation: what and how to treat, and the ethical, cultural, and economic implications of treatment. Technical drawings and photographs illustrate the structures and treatments examined throughout the book. Ultimately, readers gain an in-depth understanding of the materiality of books in numerous global contexts and reflect on the practical considerations involved in their analysis and treatment. Our conversations in this episode discuss how this book is a key reference text for the field, how it fuels important conversations about decision-making and ethics, and what approaches it encourages to learning the practicalities of book conservation.

God never forgets his people. But the 400 years of divine silence following the Old Testament can make you think he does. Among God's forgotten people is an elderly forgotten couple, barren but faithful. They had yearned and prayed for children and now their time had passed. They were no longer asking or hoping for a child. God seemed silent but he was working out an incredible plan that included them. Just when all hope seems lost God tends to show up and do his best work. We can only marvel.
Griff comes on to talk about the Bainbridge event with 15K added cash! And we catch up with current PDGA news. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
When times are tough, salvation is coming.
When all hope seems gone, God carries out his purposes
In this new Tasting Talk session, Dan and Dave dig into a compelling bottle from Bainbridge Organic Distillers: the Battle Point Wheat Whiskey finished in Hokkaido Mizunara Casks.They explore how Bainbridge takes its organic wheat whiskey and finishes it in Hokkaido-grown Mizunara oak, creating a whiskey that blends tropical warmth with the famed incense-spice character of Japanese Mizunara. Expect them to break down:Aromas: vanilla cream soda, and that signature Mizunara temple incensePalate: sandalwood , toasted coconut from the Mizunara influence, and big creamy vanilla notesFinish: long, viscous, warming, with lingering oak spiceOverall impressions: Does this Bainbridge expression push the Battle Point line into new territory?Dan and Dave compare tasting notes, debate the dominant flavors, and deliver their verdict on whether this bottle earns a spot on your shelf. They also talk about how the western U.S. is churning out exceptional single grain whiskeys. Hint: because a lot of it's grown in the west!

Sexier Than A Squirrel: Dog Training That Gets Real Life Results
Send us a textSome animals step into the arena and you can feel it—the spark, the “cue me now” readiness, the sense that they want to win with you. We bring that feeling into focus with international dressage rider and team manager Beth Bainbridge, comparing notes across horses and high-drive dogs to show how trust, routines, and basics turn talent into stable, repeatable results.Beth takes us from the highs of elite competition—national anthems, big stages, and stallions who light up—to the quiet work that makes it possible: building security on fundamentals, respecting individual preferences, and designing environments that lower friction. We dig into welfare checklists for “behaviour” problems (teeth, saddle fit, backs, vet, forage), why continuity of routine matters for older or rehomed animals, and how a calm, predictable setup protects performance. You'll hear practical competition strategies too: filmed run-throughs, targeted training blocks, clear day-of schedules, ring walks, visualisation, and the crucial rule that the calmest handler takes over when nerves spike.Teaching gets a playful spotlight as Beth explains how to make dressage irresistible for kids by pairing precise asks with joyful releases. We compare “hot” and cooler types—how sensitive athletes often settle with more consistent contact, and how thoughtful, steadier horses become quicker by rewarding smaller aids. Expect honest personality talk (DJ Loki vs accountant Reef), transferable routines for travelling dogs, and the shared principle that basics win under pressure.If you care about advanced dog training, dressage performance, equine welfare, or simply building better partnerships with animals, this conversation is a blueprint.
