In this episode, Al Roxburgh and Jenny Sinclair talk with Reuben Slife about the challenges of Christian life within the realities of late modernity. Growing up in America's Deep South and beginning in the United Methodist Church tradition, Reuben planned to teach theatre. However, his path took him, via GK Chesterton and the plays of the late St John Paul II, into full communion with the Catholic Church and to life in Steubenville, Ohio, a small town in the American Rust Belt. Reuben finds himself living within an emerging community of Catholic families drawn to building a Christian life together. Reflecting on the dynamics within the town, he describes his experience, both as a Catholic and through his work as an editor of political theology. Reuben explores both the creativity and the tensions around forming Christian life in the midst of a modern Egypt, recognising its harsh categories of self, the state and the market. Drawing on ways of thinking gifted to us from outside the modern West, Reuben is devoted to bringing forward traditions that were vital before the birth of the modern.Reuben Slife is the editor of New Polity Press, in Steubenville, Ohio. New Polity publishes essays, books and podcasts and is a think tank for political theology, dedicated to cultivating the Catholic tradition and fostering a movement to resist the cultural and political trends of the liberal state. Reuben edited and oversaw the translation of Rocco Buttiglione's Modernity's Alternative, on Latin America's “theology of peoples” [teología del pueblo], and currently is working on America in the Mystery of Christ and the Church by David L. Schindler.

In this episode Al Roxburgh and Jenny Sinclair meet again with Avril Baigent. In an earlier episode (#05) of Leaving Egypt, Al and Jenny discovered Avril's involvement with the movement known as Synodality. This is a process initiated by the late Pope Francis across the Catholic Church, enabling Catholics at all levels of the Church to come together in processes of listening to one another and to the Holy Spirit. Centred on an ancient method called “Conversation in the Spirit”, Synodality is slowly enabling fresh spaces within the Church for discerning how the Spirit is calling us to join with God. Sharing real stories of deep transformation through her own experience of this global movement, Avril is clear that this process is no “add water and stir” quick fix for ailing parishes. It takes time. This process takes us deep into encounter with one another and has the potential to resolve difficult decisions, overcome power imbalances and resolve painful conflict. And not only within the Church, it also takes us into deep, listening relationships with the people in our neighbourhoods and local communities. It is in these engagements that discernment emerges as we hear the Spirit through the other.Avril Baigent is co-director of the School for Synodality where she promotes the ancient Catholic practice of 'walking together with the Holy Spirit'. In addition, as Director of Pastoral Development at the Diocese of Northampton, she is embedding synodality in the life of the diocese, promoting lay vocations and helping local Catholic communities to imagine their futures together. Avril has also recently completed her PhD youth ministry at Durham University, and helps out in her parish as a musician and children's liturgy leader.We hope that you are enjoying Leaving Egypt.

Life has found ways to adapt on Earth for almost 4 billion years. Climate change, industrial pollution and diseases pose new and additional burdens on all forms of life. Yet adaptation continues all around us.

Kevin Tarrant, Ex-CHRO of WABCO and current President of HR Co-Pilot Consulting, brings 40 years of human capital experience to Jamie Flinchbaugh's People Solve Problems podcast. With a background spanning manufacturing, high tech, software development, and service industries across global organizations, Kevin shares insights from his extensive career, including his last corporate role as Chief Human Resources Officer for Westinghouse Airbrake Company (WABCO). Kevin emphasizes that problem solving has a significant human component beyond just tools and processes. He notes that employees must trust and respect each other while understanding the different strengths each person brings to a problem-solving team. He explains that employees need to directly impact revenue, reduce costs, or contribute to continuous improvement to remain valuable as companies constantly seek efficiency. From an HR perspective, Kevin observes a shift toward hiring for competencies rather than specific experience. He encourages job seekers to demonstrate how they've applied their competencies in different situations rather than simply listing their work history. These competencies—like building relationships, problem-solving, resilience, and adaptability—can transfer across industries. He shares a compelling example from the 2008-2009 financial crisis when WABCO lost 42% of its revenue in one year. Facing potential bankruptcy, the company implemented creative solutions when cash was scarce. They replaced cash bonuses with stock options at the then-low price and conducted "stay interviews" with critical talent to understand what would keep them engaged beyond money. The result: they retained all key employees, and many became millionaires when the stock rebounded. The foundation for this creativity, Kevin explains, came from WABCO's culture which valued diverse thinking and outside-the-box solutions. He warns that many companies claim employees are their greatest asset on their websites, but actual behaviors during tough times reveal the true culture. Kevin recommends that organizations build teams around solving problems and implement processes to understand each member's strengths before tackling challenges. He notes that jobs that don't contribute measurably are at risk. Finally, he emphasizes that successful companies focus on continuous improvement and reinvention.

While tuberculosis is not a major health issue in New Zealand, worldwide it remains the leading infectious disease killer.   The vaccine against tuberculosis, called BCG, was first developed in France more than 100 years ago using a strain of bacteria that lost its disease-causing ability. Scientists refer to this as a live attenuated vaccine.   On Our Changing World, the Malaghan Institute's Dr Kerry Hilligan explains to Claire Concannon how this old vaccine is teaching researchers new tricks.

"There's nothing adaptive about AHM!" Why is this viewpoint wrong?  "Follow the science!" Why is it not that simple? On this episode, Kayci Messerly and Dr. Mike Brasher go on location at the US Geological Survey Eastern Ecological Science Center to visit with Dr. Mike Runge, quantitative ecologist, to learn about the unparalleled history and legacy of the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in making North American waterfowl management the envy of the world. Home to the Bird Banding Lab, Waterfowl Breeding Population Surveys, Harvest Surveys, and Adaptive Harvest Management, the federal scientists who have walked the halls of Patuxent are giants in their field and have answered some of America's most pressing questions in wildlife management. Yet this expertise extends beyond waterfowl and includes pivotal work on the recovery of the endangered whooping crane, lead poisoning, DDT, moist-soil management, and much more.

Sunday Evening- Pastor Larson- Deuteronomy 28:8-14

Imagine waking up one day and realizing the world changed, but you didn't. That's what it's like for many organizations today, stuck on a decades-long train ride, speeding ahead without ever looking out the window. The future of work isn't coming. It's already here, and most companies are still running on definitions of “work,” “manager,” and “employee” that feel more like satire than strategy. Work sucks for too many people, and it doesn't have to. In today's Leadership Spark, we break down the five major trends transforming work as we know it: evolving behaviors, shifting demographics, globalization, mobility, and accelerating tech. As we step into the future of work, organizations must get off the train, look up, and start designing work that actually works for humans. ________________ This episode is sponsored by Workhuman: Don't you hate how every HR company out there says they are powered by AI?

Harmony and Russell sit down with Paul Bramadat — professor, anthropologist, and longtime yoga practitioner — to explore the spiritual, cultural, and deeply human dimensions of modern yoga. Paul, who began his yoga journey in Harmony's studio in Victoria, BC, now returns not as a student, but as the author of Yoga Lands, a fascinating book that blends memoir, ethnography, and cultural critique. Together, they dive into the real reasons people are drawn to yoga: not just for fitness or flexibility, but as a response to suffering. From the spiritual to the sociopolitical, this episode weaves personal stories and academic insights into a rich discussion of cultural appropriation, inclusivity, identity, and the subtle energies that shape how we relate to each other in the yoga room. This episode is essential listening for yoga practitioners, teachers, and anyone who's ever felt the transformative pull of the practice — even when the reasons are messy, complicated, and rooted in pain.

This week we're delighted to welcome Carl Frampton to the show. Second dive into boxing is long overdue and so much has happened since we last visited the sport. A boxing legend and Ring Magazine ‘Fighter of the Year' in 2016, he was the first Northern Irishman to hold world titles in two weight classes, Carl is recognised as one of the best fighters of his generation. As you may expect, there is far more to him than the success he achieved in the ring. This was also the time for us to understand what the life of a top class fighter looks like, and how the business of the sport works from the athlete's perspective. Saudi involvement has elevated both prize money and fight calibre in recent times, correcting some of the big problems in the sport and making the fights that everyone wants to see actually happen. But this hasn't always been the case, and from the promotion world that can consist of exploitation and mismanagement to the challenge of driving commercial opportunities building the brand of the individual, Carl's story is one of both past and present. Now one of the leading media figures in the sport as well as exploring a number of business ventures including his own whiskey brand, we take a look inside a sport that is re-establishing itself as one of the major assets in global entertainment. Whether a fan of Carl or just fascinated by the boxing industry, this is one you'll enjoy.  On today's show we discuss: Boxing Industry: A Good Place to be? Why is professional boxing considered by Frampton to be a “crooked” and exploitative business? What happened in Carl Frampton's legal dispute with Barry McGuigan, and what does it reveal about fighter vulnerability? Is the real danger in boxing the fights themselves, or the hundreds of rounds of sparring in training camps? What can be done at the coaching level to reduce head trauma and protect fighters? Business of Boxing:  How does a fighter's earning potential evolve from early career to world championship level? What role do management structures play in limiting or enabling endorsement and sponsorship deals? Why did Frampton earn more from sponsorships after leaving his initial management, even without a world title? Why is building a brand now essential for boxers to reach the top commercially? Who are the best and worst examples of fighters whose success (or lack thereof) was defined by branding? Changing World of Boxing: How has Saudi Arabia, and specifically Turki Al-Alshikh, changed the boxing landscape? Why are previously impossible matchups now becoming reality, and how did the Saudi-backed model enable this? Does influencer boxing help or hurt the sport overall? How are fighters like Jake Paul impacting the visibility and pay of other boxers, especially women? Is jealousy among traditional boxers driving backlash against influencer fights? Fighter Psychology & Motivation: How did Frampton's mindset evolve through his career, and did he ever truly enjoy boxing? Why did he set a retirement age early on, and how did that shape his choices in the ring? What motivates fighters to retire and then return and is it often driven by financial pressures? How are fighters like Jake Paul impacting the visibility and pay of other boxers, especially women?

This episode begins with an explanation. ⁠⁠http://now.tufts.edu/articles/how-burdensome-are-secrets⁠⁠ The world of work has changed quite a bit in the last few years. Today, more people are not just looking for a paycheck or promotion, they are looking for meaning in what they do. Another big change is that many workers today have more than one job. People relate to their work and their employer differently than they used to. Bruce Feiler has been watching and researching these changing trends and joins me to discuss what these changes mean and what opportunities they create for all of us. Bruce is the author of six consecutive New York Times bestsellers including ⁠⁠The Search: Finding Meaningful Work in a Post-Career World (https://amzn.to/3OKgwUI)⁠⁠ It seems like just about everyone today has allergies.

She is a medical anthropologist, and associate professor of science and technology. She is also author of the book ⁠⁠Allergic: Our Irritated Bodies in a Changing World (https://amzn.to/43d9uwb)⁠⁠ You know that exercise is good for your health.

In today's episode, I sit down with Chris Callery, a former top Vegas DJ who walked away from nightlife, toured the world on cruise ships, studied risk management, and eventually bought a 75-year-old family-owned jewelry business with his wife. We talk about what it really means to be an “overnight success,” how to pivot when life demands it, and why emotion, not just utility, drives value—whether you're selling tacos or timepieces. Chris shares how storytelling, consistency, and connection have helped Huntington Jewelers thrive in a digital age, and how the right watch can say more about someone's values than any smart device ever could.

Today on Our Changing World – we have a piece from the archives – from 15 years ago. Chatham Island tūī once were common on the main Chatham Island, but from the 1930s their numbers started to decline, and by the 1990s they were all but gone. In 2009 fourteen tūī were transferred from nearby predator free Rangatira island to the main island. They all survived the winter, and some started to breed. Following up on this success, local conservation group the Chatham Island Taiko Trust decided to translocate more in 2010. We join Alison Ballance and the tūī team just after they've caught and contained 40 birds.

What happens when scientific advancement outpaces our ethical frameworks? As Christian Life Resources celebrates 42 years of ministry, this compelling discussion explores how a once primarily pro-life organization evolved to address the complex moral questions of our time and prepare for what's ahead.The conversation takes us from CLR's humble beginnings—marked by a watershed moment when U.S. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop spoke at their 1984 convention—to today's expanded mission addressing everything from surrogate parenting to end-of-life care. National Director Bob Fleischmann candidly shares how the organization matured from focusing solely on fetal development arguments to helping Christians navigate ethical dilemmas through a biblical lens.Looking forward, three critical frontiers demand our attention: revolutionary procreation technologies including artificial wombs, CRISPR gene editing that blurs the line between healing and enhancement, and artificial intelligence that's reshaping human interaction. These advancements arrive amid deepening social fragmentation, where truth increasingly becomes whatever opinion garners the most likes.Yet amidst these challenges, CLR maintains unwavering hope grounded in Scripture. The organization is preparing for the future with exciting initiatives: succession planning for leadership transition, a comprehensive "Debunk" series addressing common misconceptions about life issues, an AI-enhanced website launching this fall, and expansion of their New Beginnings - A Home for Mothers and elder care ministries.Have questions about navigating today's complex ethical landscape from a Christian perspective?
