The story of the men on the roof didn't start with that prison takeover in 1991. It didn't start when they were detained in federal prisons. And it didn't start when the government made a secret list of their names in 1984. Instead, it started in the spring of 1980, with one of the largest refugee crises in American history: the Mariel Boatlift. Want to hear the next episode of White Lies a week before everyone else?

Antje Passenheim über kaum bekannte Helden im Schatten der Terroranschläge.

On September 11, 2001, Christina and Brian Stanton were blown back into their apartment and knocked unconscious by the impact of the second plane hitting the south World Trade Center tower.Four miles north, the staff of Redeemer Presbyterian Church climbed out a window onto a balcony. From there, they saw both towers collapse. Four hours south, the staff of Capitol Hill Baptist Church could feel the reverberations of the plane slamming into the Pentagon.Half a country away, John Piper looked at the staff of his Bethlehem Baptist Church and told them, “This changes everything.”In these stories of loss, trauma, redemption, and eternal hope, we see that God was, and is, and always will be at work—even in the darkest moments.Resources and references from this episode: "Truth, Tears, Anger, and Grace" (Tim Keller's sermon delivered to his congregation of Redeemer Presbyterian Church on September 16, 2001)"A Service of Sorrow, Self-Humbling, and Steady Hope in Our Savior and King, Jesus Christ" (John Piper's sermon response on September 16, 2001)"Terrorism, Justice, and Loving Our Enemies" (article by John Piper on September 12, 2001)"21 Ways to Comfort Those Who Are Suffering" (article by John Piper on September 12, 2001)"Boatlift, An Untold Tale of 9/11 Resilience" (video documentary on the boat rescue evacuation September 11, 2001)

Join Meghan as she talks with the brilliantly warm, trauma informed author, Jessica DuLong, about her extraordinary book: Saved At The Seawall.  A deeply emotional, and personal telling of one of the greatest stories of hope from 9/11, that you may have never heard before.  Jessica and Meghan talk  PTSD, brain science and the ways in which writing can help manage trauma and allow us to tell some of the most important stories of hope. Saved At The Seawall is Meghan's First Book Club book!! Come over to www.griefismysidehustle.com and going "Grief Mates" a grief writing workshop to be part of the discussion on Trauma Narrative, why it's important and how to create one.     “The greatest 9/11 story you've never heard.” —   Garrett M. Graff, The Only Plane in the Sky “No one has told this incredible story better than Jessica DuLong. Saved at the Seawall is a moving page-turner.”  — Kenneth T. Jackson, president emeritus, New-York Historical Society        The definitive history of the largest ever waterborne evacuation, when ferries, dinner boats, and other vessels spontaneously converged to rescue nearly 500,000 stranded people from Manhattan on September 11, 2001 SAVED AT THE SEAWALL reveals the dramatic story of how the New York Harbor maritime community heroically delivered stranded commuters, residents, and visitors out of harm's way. Even before the US Coast Guard called for “all available boats,” tugs, ferries, dinner boats, and other vessels had sped to the rescue from points all across New York Harbor. In less than nine hours, captains and crews transported nearly half a million people from Manhattan. Anchored in eyewitness accounts and written by a mariner who served at Ground Zero, SAVED AT THE SEAWALL weaves together the personal stories of people rescued that day with those of the mariners who saved them.  Jessica DuLong describes the inner workings of New York Harbor and reveals the collaborative power of its close-knit community. Initially published as Dust to Deliverance, this edition, released in time for the 20th anniversary, contains new updates: a preface by DuLong and a foreword by Mitchell Zuckoff. https://bookshop.org/books/saved-at-the-seawall-stories-from-the-september-11-boat-lift/9781501759123 https://jessicadulong.com/saved-at-the-seawall/    

My guest today is Sharon Charde. Sharon is a poet, teacher and author, who recently published a heartfelt, beautifully written book “I Am Not A Juvenile Delinquent: How Poetry Changed a Group of At Risk Young Women”. For over a decade Sharon volunteered as a poetry teacher at a residential treatment facility for delinquent girls. Her initial intention was to reach out to these young women and have them tell their stories, but what happened was that Sharon fell in love with the girls, and as we know about true love… love takes us places we don’t expect to go! This book is a testament that love heals, expands, empowers and transforms us. Sharon compassionately weaves the story of her personal grief and suffering, seamlessly into the stories of the girls’ grief and suffering. She facilitated and witnessed the girls pull the dark shadows from the corner of their souls, bring them into the light, transforming pain and suffering into poetry. Sharon’s authentic dedication to the girls, their lives, along with her tenacity to have their stories heard is priceless. The girls’ courage and realness and the profound power of poetry taught Sharon how to carry her own grief differently, making room for more love than pain. Check out the show notes for links to Sharon’s website, a promotional video highlighting the voices of these young women, resources she mentioned, along with 2 independent book stores that carry her book. With the 19th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, I encourage you to watch a 12 minute video on YouTube called "Boatlift". My previous podcast guest Rick Velleu co-directed this short film with his business partner Eddie Rosenstein. It's a poignant, inspiring account of resilience and the human spirit. Enjoy the podcast!

In this episode, Kristopher discusses Philippians chapter 3 using the metaphor of doorways as an exegetical tool for understanding the message. Kristopher describes how the Apostle Paul challenges the use of religious tribal markers as litmus tests for belonging or even salvation. He unpacks how Paul, in this passage, may even been warning his congregation to watch out for creating exclusive religious cultures inadvertently. The original sermon was given at the Redlands Seventh-day Adventist Church in Southern California during the “Relevant” worship gathering.

The Dukes relive a heroic day with Drs. Tricia Wachtendorf and James Kendra, authors of American Dunkirk: The Waterborne Evacuation of Manhattan on 9/11. From the first impact on the towers, boat captains came by the dozens to rescue hundreds of thousands of survivors in under nine hours. If you don't know this story, you should. Tricia and Jim use it to explore a whole new theory of disaster management. Plus: Andrew learns the Texas Chicken Maneuver and, yes, Mitch cheated. ALSO, we swear (but only about New Jersey). (Some audio borrowed from Boatlift, a brief documentary about the evacuation that you should check out on YouTube).
