I'm your China travel guide in exile, Missionary Ben. Follow me on Twitter/X (@chinaadventures) where I share a new Chinese city or county to pray for every single day of the week. Feel free to email anytime: chinacompass @ privacyport.com. Visit PrayGiveGo.us for Patreon, Substack, Books & everything else! Why the Prison Pulpit? The goal is to remind people to pray for persecuted believers as Hebrews 13:3 teaches: “Remember those who are in prison, as bound with them.” We’ve looked at Wang Yi and Early Rain Church’s writings in the aftermath of their arrest and attack in 2018, but I’ve also regularly turned to other persecuted ministers who have gone before, such as Richard Wurmbrand, to give us a voice literally from prison. A lot has happened in the Middle East this week. There is much to pray for, but I want to focus specifically on reminding us all to pray for the believers in the various countries in the middle of (or even in the periphery of) the current conflict: Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Oman, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Israel, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Iraq, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (those are just off the top of my head, although I think that covers most of the nations either bordering Iran or somehow involved in the conflict). I took a few minutes to put these nations into four groups, based on the similarities as to how they treat local Christians, or missionaries, within their borders. (Note: I am not an “expert” on the Middle East).

I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is the author, academic, screenwriter, creator of fantastical worlds and nocturnal roof-climber, Katherine Rundell. An award-winning non-fiction author for adults and fiction writer for children – whose books have sold over 4million copies worldwide, Rundell has penned works that span from the Impossible Creatures series – set in magical, endangered Archipelago – to Rooftoppers, about a young girl called Sophie who climbs the roofs of Paris in search of her mother, which is, one of my favourites. Because another of Rundell's great works is Why You Should Read Children's Books Even Though You Are So Old and Wise, a small yet mighty book that argues for children's fiction as integral to our reading output. A place which invites us not only to understand the fundamentals of good and evil, but reminds us of the importance of taking kids seriously, as Sophie, the protagonist in Rooftoppers, reminds us: “Do not underestimate children, do not underestimate girls.” I also highly recommend Rundell's lecture on this subject that was published in the London Review of Books last winter. A Fellow of St Catherine's College, Oxford and quondam fellow of All Souls College, Oxford – where she was admitted as the youngest fellow in 2008 – Rundell is also a scholar on the 16th century poet, preacher, politician, lawyer, Dean of St Paul's Cathedral (and more) John Donne, with her electrically-written biography, Super Infinite: The Transformations of John Donne that won her the Baillie Gifford Prize. A #1 NYT and ST bestselling author, the winner of Waterstones Book of the Year, and the Author of the Year, as recognised by the British Book Awards, Rundell is one of our greatest thinkers, writers, creators, and campaigner for “putting imagination first”. And it is reading her books that I am reminded of that superpower, the brilliance of human capability that not only gets us to dream up different worlds, but imagine how we can make this complex one a much more beautiful and better place. This week marks World Book Day 2026, and excitingly the publication of my first children's book, so I couldn't be more honoured to speak with Katherine today, about writing, art, books, and more. –– KATHERINE'S BOOKS: https://www.waterstones.com/author/katherine-rundell/53343 MY CHILDREN'S BOOK! https://www.waterstones.com/book/the-story-of-art-without-men/katy-hessel/9780241824214 -- THIS EPISODE IS GENEROUSLY SUPPORTED BY THE LEVETT COLLECTION: https://www.famm.com/en/ https://www.instagram.com/famm_mougins // https://www.merrellpublishers.com/9781858947037 Follow us: Katy Hessel: @thegreatwomenartists / @katy.hessel Sound editing by Nada Smiljanic Music by Ben Wetherfield

If you struggle to rest, you are not lazy. And you are not bad at slowing down.When your nervous system resists rest, it is often responding to something older than your calendar.Many driven, responsible adults live in low-grade urgency. Not because they love hustle, but because their body learned early that motion meant safety. Achievement meant connection. Stabilizing the room meant belonging.So when things get quiet, the body does not interpret that as peace. It interprets it as unfamiliar.This episode explores: • why high performers feel restless in stillness • how predictive processing reinforces familiar reward loops • why responsibility fuses with identity • how “being the steady one” becomes a nervous system strategy • the grief that surfaces when intensity becomes normalWe are not teaching neuroscience. We are illuminating lived experience.Your brain repeats what reduces uncertainty. If competence calmed tension, your system stored it. If achievement strengthened attachment, your system reinforced it.Over time, adrenaline can feel like clarity. Urgency can feel like maturity. Rest can feel exposed.This is not traditional burnout. It is identity drift layered with nervous system conditioning.Identity-Level Recalibration is not another productivity tactic. It is root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective. We begin with the who, not the how. Identity precedes behavior.Reclamation does not mean becoming less driven. It means separating commitment from consumption.You can remain sharp without staying strung tight.You can lead without living in low-grade adrenaline.You can care deeply without being consumed.Identity safety feels like breath. Not adrenaline.Like silence that does not accuse you.Like performance flowing from steadiness instead of panic.This is orientation before resolution.Recognition before force.Companionship instead of correction.Today's Micro Recalibration:When rest feels uncomfortable, place a hand on your chest and quietly say, “My body learned that motion meant safety. It is okay that this feels unfamiliar.” Then take one slower breath than usual.Not to fix anything.Just to introduce your system to a new option.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration → Schedule a conversation with Julie to see if The Recalibration is a fit for you → Learn about The Recalibration Cohort→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Travis and producer Eric unpack America's literacy crisis (54% of adults read below 6th-grade level, costing $2.2T in lost productivity), celebrate streamer Kai Cenat's public 30-minute daily reading challenge, debate childhood favorites like Dr. Seuss, and tie it all to self-improvement and earning potential. On this episode we talk about: Shocking U.S. literacy stats: 45M adults functionally illiterate, 40% of 4th graders below basic reading, and 44% read zero books yearly. Streamer Kai Cenat's vulnerable reading streams (Atomic Habits, looking up words like "spontaneity") mocked online but praised by Jamie Foxx and Hasan Piker. Generational reading habits, Dr. Seuss debates (Butter Battle Book vs. Green Eggs & Ham), and kids' books like Monster at the End of This Book and Rainbow Fish. How low literacy traps families in poverty cycles and kills income potential—humility in learning beats pretending to know it all. Workaholics cruise insights: Comedians aren't the "party slobs" they portray; successful ones prioritize health, work ethic, and growth. Top 3 Takeaways 1.  Reading builds irreplaceable skills for communication, income, and breaking poverty cycles—start with 20-30 minutes daily like Kai Cenat.2.  Embrace looking "dumb" by googling words or admitting gaps; mockery reveals the mockers' insecurity, not your flaws.3.  Self-improvement (gym, books, skills) fuels real money-making—don't mimic entertainers' jokes as life advice; model their unseen discipline. Notable Quotes "An estimated 130 million U.S. adults read below a sixth grade level, which is about 54% of adults ages 16 to 74." "Low literacy is estimated to cost the US economy up to $2.2 trillion per year in lost productivity." "This is literally the process of learning... if I don't know what it means now, I'm not going to just magically learn it." "Why are the things that are most important to know the things that are most taboo to talk about?" "Read a book this year, and don't be a part of the 44% who are not." ✖️✖️✖️✖️

What happens when we stop treating the Bible as a sacred object and start paying attention to how we actually use it? In this conversation, theologian David Dault reflects on interpretation, responsibility, and the ethics of reading scripture in a fractured world. In this episode with Evan Rosa, Dault reflects on interpretation, responsibility, and how readers shape the meaning and moral impact of the Bible. Together they discuss the materiality of scripture, translation and betrayal, moral seriousness, scriptural reasoning across traditions, catastrophic love, and the ethical responsibility readers bear for how sacred texts are used. Episode Highlights “To assume that we know what a text is telling us is a matter of hubris.” “The Bible doesn't tell you to do anything. You as a reader decide what to do.” “Violence is always an act of interpretation.” “We never get to a place where everything is clean and everyone benefits.” “We have to take responsibility for the violence we involve ourselves in.” About David Dault David Dault is a theologian, journalist, and media producer whose work explores religion, culture, ethics, and interpretation. He is Executive Producer and host of Things Not Seen: Conversations About Culture and Faith, a nationally distributed public radio program. He teaches in the Institute of Pastoral Studies at Loyola University Chicago. Dault's scholarship focuses on hermeneutics, religion and media, and the ethical implications of how sacred texts are interpreted and used in public life. His book The Accessorized Bible examines the material forms, cultural framing, and interpretive communities that shape how people encounter scripture. He holds degrees in theology and religious studies and frequently writes and lectures on religion, politics, and culture.

In this re-air of my interview with author Elizabeth Beller, we revisit the life and legacy of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, the enigmatic wife of John F. Kennedy Jr., whose story continues to fascinate a generation. With renewed interest sparked by the upcoming FX series Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette, inspired by Beller's book, this conversation feels more timely than ever. In Once Upon a Time: The Captivating Life of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, Beller reexamines Carolyn's life beyond the tabloid mythology. She explores Carolyn's early years, her career in fashion, her complicated relationship with fame, and the intense media scrutiny that defined her marriage. The result is an effervescent and deeply researched portrait of a woman often misunderstood — stylish yet private, modern yet steeped in the weight of American legacy.

Today we're talking about strength. Building muscle doesn't have to mean lifting heavy weights in a fancy gym. In fact, you can do it from the comfort of your living room. No expensive memberships, no extra long workouts, no excuses. To prove it, I asked human performance expert Andy Galpin to design an at-home strength session for someone who's never lifted a weight before - my sister. It's quick, cheap, and a sure fire way to add years to your healthspan.  If you're new to strength training, this episode is the perfect place to start.

If sales have started to feel heavy, frustrating, or emotionally draining, the problem may not be your strategy—it may be your mindset. In this episode, Ray Higdon explains why sales feels hard and how simple mindset shifts can immediately change your experience and results. Most salespeople unknowingly tie their emotions to outcomes, rejection, and responses. But top performers detach from results and instead anchor themselves in activity, patience, and consistency. You will learn how to stop fearing rejection, why becoming addicted to activity transforms performance, and how shifting from "trying to close" to simply "seeing who's open" reduces pressure and increases conversions. Ray also explains why consistency, courage, and stepping outside your comfort zone are essential for success to become inevitable. —  

When productivity starts to define you, pressure and quiet exhaustion follow. For high achievers who feel responsible for everything, this isn't a discipline issue — it may be identity misalignment, and a gentle invitation to release shame.There is a difference between working hard and letting productivity define you.For many high achievers, the pressure isn't just about deadlines or performance. It's about identity. When usefulness becomes intertwined with worth, rest can feel disorienting and responsibility can feel inseparable from who you are.This episode explores the subtle identity shift that happens when competence becomes belonging.We look at:• how high performers often learned early that capability created connection• why responsibility can become a stabilizing role in families, teams, and relationships• how burnout sometimes masks identity misalignment rather than exhaustion• the grief that surfaces when you realize you became “the steady one” too soon• the fear that loosening productivity will let others downIf you have ever felt that you only belong because you are useful, this conversation meets you there.We gently separate:-Work from worth.-Responsibility from identity.-Productivity from belonging.This is not a conversation about abandoning ambition. It is about understanding what shaped it.This episode also addresses the deeper fears beneath identity drift:-What happens to everyone else if I stop being the stabilizer?-If I loosen this, do I disappear?-Who am I when no one needs anything from me?Release does not mean dropping responsibility.It means carrying it without carrying your worth inside it.If you resonate with being the capable one, the reliable one, the one who steadies the system, you are not broken. You adapted well. Now you are simply learning that you can belong without performing.Today's Micro Recalibration:Choose one accomplishment from today.Notice the impulse to attach identity to it.Gently say, “That is something I did. It is not who I am.”Let it feel unfamiliar if it does.Release often feels subtle before it feels free.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration → Schedule a conversation with Julie to see if The Recalibration is a fit for you → Learn about The Recalibration Cohort→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Not feeling like yourself without work can create quiet pressure and confusion, especially for high achievers who feel most solid when producing. This isn't burnout. It may be identity misalignment — and a gentle invitation back to who you are beneath output.There's a quiet identity shift that doesn't look dramatic from the outside.Your calendar is full. Your responsibilities are real. Your leadership is steady.But when work quiets, something in you feels exposed.Not burned out. Not collapsing. Just… less defined.This episode explores what happens when productivity and identity become braided together — and why rest can feel strangely uncomfortable for high achievers and responsible leaders.We examine:• why usefulness can become tied to self-worth • how responsibility evolves into over-identification • why being “the strong one” feels stabilizing — and exhausting • how the nervous system pairs competence with safety • what identity drift actually isMany high-performing professionals don't struggle with motivation.They struggle with separation.If I'm not producing, who am I? If I'm not needed, do I still matter?Over time, the brain learns:Productivity equals safety. Responsibility equals belonging.That pattern is adaptive — not permanent.Identity-Level Recalibration is not another productivity strategy or mindset tactic. It is the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective. When identity precedes behavior, action becomes sustainable instead of performative.This episode also names the quieter fears beneath identity drift:• Is it too late to change? • Will I lose my edge? • Can I be valued without earning it?Recognition is not demolition. It's noticing the braid.Today's Micro Recalibration:When you finish a task and nothing urgent demands your attention:• Pause for ten seconds. • Notice what emotion surfaces first. • Name it quietly.No correction. No optimization. Just awareness.Because awareness is where recalibration begins.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration → Schedule a conversation with Julie to see if The Recalibration is a fit for you → Learn about The Recalibration Cohort→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!
