In this session, delve into the role of believers as witnesses testifying that "the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world." Through an examination of the Greek term "soter," we connect this to Old Testament patterns of deliverance, like Moses and the judges, and reflect on the world as both victim and villain in need of God's transformative love.

On this episode, we're leaving the 1960's behind and jumping to South Korea in 1980. In Jang Hoon's A Taxi Driver (2017) we get a wild sampling of genres in a remarkably well balanced film. It's an action film. A single father supporting his daughter story. It's dramatic and also quite goofy. It's based on a actual events, but it's also highly fictionalized. It documents political history while being oddly apolitical at times. And it's a journalism film too.  International treasure Song Kang-ho stars as a Seoul cabbie who's transporting a German journalist to cover what is rumored to be a student protest. They both become unlikely witnesses and participants in the 1980 Gwangju Uprising and the massacre at the hands of governemnt forces.  If you're up for a marathon of South Korean films, here is the five film lineup Aaron mentions that covers the politics and events from 1979-1981: The Man Standing Next (2020) The President's Last Bang (2005) 12.12: The Day (2023) A Taxi Driver (2017) The Attorney (2013) Follow us at: Patreon / Instagram / Letterboxd / Facebook 

Reverend Yuen Kristina Houck gave this Dharma Talk May 11th, 2025. In it, she reflects on her recent experience in the Zen Peacemakers Bearing Witness to Racism retreat in Alabama. Though the layers of suffering are profound, in the midst of Samsara, the ineffable "it" expresses itself through hope, courage, persistence and faith. 

On May 8, 2025, the MM in partnership with the Holocaust Commission of the United Jewish Federation of Tidewater and the Virginia Holocaust Museum, hosted Dr. Roger Loria, a holocaust survivor. The event was particularly poignant – it was held on the 80th anniversary of V-E Day – the day the Allies defeated Nazi Germany. A video of the presentation is also available via YouTube: https://youtu.be/nltcQ4eKIgU?si=qsTn9-DI2gZ5qp-u  Have a comment about this episode?

Easter reminds us that the goodness which shaped the universe and continues to sustain all of creation will ultimately triumph. But what does it mean to bear witness to this goodness? What does it look like to align ourselves with its energy and rhythm? The lives of Tabitha (Dorcas) and Peter offer us glimpses—examples of what it means to live in harmony with this divine goodness. May their witness inspire us to do the same.Scripture: Acts 1:8, Acts 9:36-42

When British-Australian doctor Mohammed Mustafa walked into the terminal at Perth airport last week, there were hundreds of people waiting to welcome him back. He touched down after spending weeks on a medical mission, volunteering at the last fully functioning hospital in Gaza City.

Join us today as we speak with Dr. Daniel Hill, Assistant Professor of Christian Theology at Baylor University's George W. Truett Theological Seminary, on the topic of his upcoming book Bearing Witness: What the Church Can Learn from Early Abolitionists. Due out in April 2025, Dr. Hill's new book draws on the rich legacy of nineteenth-century abolitionists David Ruggles, Maria W. Stewart, and William Still, to construct a compelling evangelical framework for public witness, anchored in Scripture and the practice of lament and burden-bearing.

Bearing Witness by Ordinary Mind Zen School

Pastor walks his children through Westminster Shorter Catechism question 77—especially explaining how God has given each of us an unique set of experiences that place us under obligation to T.H.I.N.K. before we speak. Q77. What is required in the ninth commandment? The ninth commandment requireth the maintaining and promoting of truth between man and man, and of our own and our neighbor's good name, especially in witness-bearing.

Event Date + Time:Sunday,Mar 23 ·9:57 — 11:30am(1 hour, 33 minutes)Description:Description:Fear can keep us silent, but the cost of bearing witness is real. In John 9:18–23, we see the parents of the healed man hesitate to speak the truth out of fear of rejection. What does this mean for us today? Are we willing to stand for truth, even when it costs us something?In this message, we explore: ✅ The power of fear in silencing truth ✅ The cost of bearing witness (Martyria) ✅ The dangers of weaponizing “truth” ✅ How truth in Christ welcomes, not excludes ✅ The courage to speak with love and wisdomJoin us as we reflect on how faith calls us to boldness and love, not fear and division.

This week we experienced some technical issues with the recording, so Pastor Bryan created a recap of his sermon. Join us as we continue in our series, Life in the Spirit. 

Jesus could have established an earthly kingdom or endorsed a leader or government. Instead he changed the whole concept of “kingdom.” He changed the whole purpose of power. In him, God was among us as one who served. And the picture we get of God's kingdom is one that transcends not only national boundaries, but all boundaries.

It's been an interesting experience for me to experience the loss of my dad and both feel my own grief and also observe it with the lens of a palliative care physician.I have noticed how healing it has been for me when others bear witness to my pain and also when they bear witness to my dad as a person.This is how we can best support people who are grieving after someone they love has died: bear witness to the pain or bear witness to the person.Helping healers heal others and themselves.DeliaDelia Chiaramonte, MDwww.integrativepalliative.comCoping Courageously: A Heart-Centered Guide for Navigating a Loved One's Illness Without Losing Yourself is available here: www.copingcourageously.com A free guide for physicians to help reclaim your joy at work and in life https://trainings.integrativepalliative.com/pl/2148540010Please review this podcast wherever you listen and forward your favorite episode to a friend!

Send us a textSince 1997, Rabbi Hirschy Zarchi has been the founder and head of the Chabad house at Harvard University, one of the largest Chabad campus operations in the United States. In the aftermath of the 2023 Hamas attack on Israel, Zarchi and investor Bill Ackman organized a showing of Bearing Witness, which showed scenes of extreme violence recorded during and after the incursion, on the Harvard campus. The showing was the first campus audience to view the film. Eylon sits down with Rabbi Zarchi to discuss the ongoing issues faced by Jews on Harvard campus, Zarchi's criticism of Harvard's stance on antisemitism and described "an atmosphere of fear for Jewish students" while speaking in front of Harvard president Claudine Gay and that Harvard does not allow Chabad to keep a menorah displayed overnight due to fears of vandalism.Co-Creator and Host - Eylon LevyCo-Creator and Creative Director - Guy RossExecutive Producer - Asher Westropp-EvansDirector - Lotem SegevGraphics - Thomas GirschEditor/Assistant Director - Benny GoldmanStay up to date at:https://www.stateofanationpodcast.com/X: https://twitter.com/stateofapodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/stateofapod/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...

To watch and be able to do very little, if anything at all. That's why I'm literally losing my mind, as my therapist begs me to back away, but I think that means ignoring atrocity and brutality.
