Subscribe to States of Independence. Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither was Beggars Banquet. The story starts in 1974 with three mates, a little bit of cash, and the dream of opening a record shop. But when punk happens, it changes everything – and suddenly there's a new fantasy to chase. Label founder Martin Mills drops us into the chaotic formative years of Beggars Banquet and introduces us to their very first signing, The Lurkers. Then, we meet their first star, Gary Numan, who details his meteoric rise from just another punk rock pretender to one of the definitive voices of the new wave. In the process, the legend of Beggars is born. Find more illuminating podcasts on the ⁠⁠⁠Talkhouse Podcast Network⁠⁠⁠. Visit ⁠⁠⁠talkhouse.com⁠⁠⁠ to read essays, reviews, and more.

First up, we look at the absurdities of modern leadership with goofy governance. Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey has declared he won't attend Donald Trump's state banquet — a bold refusal of an invitation he never received. Mark and Pete explore what this reveals about the theatre of British politics and the problem of symbolic posturing in governance. Next, we turn to the tennis court. Daniil Medvedev lost his cool when a photographer strayed onto the court, showing how easily anger boils over in sport. But when is anger righteous, and when is it destructive? Pete reflects on biblical teaching about temper, from Jesus cleansing the Temple to Paul's warning not to let the sun go down on our wrath. Finally, posture comes under scrutiny. Scientist and BBC presenter Dr Xand van Tulleken has urged people to improve their posture for health's sake. Pete has tried this himself and shares why posture matters — not just physically, but spiritually, as Scripture calls us to stand firm in faith.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mark-and-pete--1245374/support.

Welcome to this LCMS Lutheran Sermon: “A Banquet of Mercy” (Luke 14:1–14) for the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost, Proper 17C. In this Christ-centered message, Pastor David Balla of the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod preaches on Jesus' parable at the Pharisee's table, showing how the Kingdom of God is not a banquet of pride or self-interest but a banquet of grace and mercy.This sermon proclaims the heart of the Gospel: that Christ invites the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind—those who cannot repay—into His feast of forgiveness, life, and salvation. You'll hear how Jesus exposes our pride, how He embodies true mercy in His death and resurrection, and how the Lord's Supper is the foretaste of the eternal marriage supper of the Lamb.If you are looking for a Lutheran sermon, Christ-centered preaching, Biblical teaching, or a Gospel-focused message that points clearly to what Christ has done for you, this is for you.If you would like to support this ministry, you can do so here: https://buymeacoffee.com/whitegandalphBe sure to subscribe for more sermons, guided meditations, and devotions rooted in God's Word and the real presence of Christ.Hashtags#LutheranSermon #LCMS #ChristCenteredPreaching #GospelSermon #BanquetOfMercy

She talks about the need to stay present in whatever you're doing, whether that's eating an orange, answering emails, texting a friend, etc. She talks about how to be a saint in our time, by exaggerating the things the world doesn't do well to inspire them to do those things well.References:Saint Thomas Aquinas by G.K.

Forgiveness is an act of judgment that acknowledges a wrong has occurred, not pretending the offense didn't happen. It differs from reconciliation, which may not always be possible or appropriate depending on the severity of the offense. Interestingly, small everyday slights can sometimes be harder to let go of than major offenses, as we tend to collect and nurture these minor hurts. The hardest person to forgive is often yourself, due to hindsight bias and judging past actions by current standards. When we carry unforgiveness, we cannot fully enjoy the banquet of blessings God has prepared for us.

In Proverbs 9:1–6, wisdom is pictured as a gracious host who has prepared a feast and invites the simple and those lacking understanding to come and partake. Her call is public, urgent, and full of promise—bread for the hungry soul and wine for the thirsty heart. But accepting her offer requires turning away from the path of folly and choosing the way of understanding. In today's study, we explore how this divine invitation still goes out to all who will hear and respond.

In episode 142 of White Canes Connect, Lisa Bryant takes the lead to interview co-host David Goldstein and NFB of PA President Lynn Heitz about our experiences at the 2025 NFB National Convention in New Orleans. We share highlights from Pennsylvania's strong showing — 56 attendees, 10 first-timers, four national scholarship finalists, and a Jernigan Leadership graduate. Lynn and David reflect on the energy of the general sessions, memorable speeches, and some lively debates during resolutions. We also talk about the bustling — and slightly oddly laid-out — exhibit hall, where Pennsylvania sold out of chocolate-covered pretzels. From the opening ceremony's brass band and very cool Whozit beads to reconnecting with Federation friends and meeting new ones, the week was packed with learning, networking, and a few surprises — including a fire alarm that cleared the ballroom mid-vote. We also touch on standout presentations on AI, Social Security, and blindness research, plus the banquet speech from President Mark Riccobono. You'll also hear reflections from first-time attendees Denise, Clarence, and Parri, each sharing their most memorable convention moments. Whether you were there or not, this episode captures the energy, camaraderie, and purpose that make national convention such a powerful experience.

Jesus' parable of the Great Banquet reminds us that God's invitation is for everyone - and His heart is to fill His table with those the world often leaves out.

This week Fr. Michael reflects on the reaction of the shepherds to the driving out of demons from the swine, and how that reaction differs from St. Photina's reaction to encountering Christ. He talks about how Jesus can look at our true poverty and provide true contentment.References:Matt 8:28 - 33John 4:1-30Save the Date for the Bridegroom's Banquet!Follow and Contact Us!Follow us on Instagram and FacebookWe're on YouTube!Join our Goodreads GroupFr.

Dooley broke his neck... Not really but yeah. Dennis dropped his poppers drunk on his stairs. What's the best coffee at a gas station compared to the worst? What about movie theater candies? Loren had one of the experiences of all time with a banquet for 25 people.

Luke 14:15-2415 When one of those at the table with him heard this, he said to Jesus, “Blessed is the one who will eat at the feast in the kingdom of God.”16 Jesus replied: “A certain man was preparing a great banquet and invited many guests. 17 At the time of the banquet he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, ‘Come, for everything is now ready.'18 “But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said, ‘I have just bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please excuse me.'19 “Another said, ‘I have just bought five yoke of oxen, and I'm on my way to try them out. Please excuse me.'20 “Still another said, ‘I just got married, so I can't come.'21 “The servant came back and reported this to his master. Then the owner of the house became angry and ordered his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the town and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind and the lame.'22 “‘Sir,' the servant said, ‘what you ordered has been done, but there is still room.'23 “Then the master told his servant, ‘Go out to the roads and country lanes and compel them to come in, so that my house will be full. 24 I tell you, not one of those who were invited will get a taste of my banquet.'”
