    On this, our 337th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss how Western society is treating its children. First, the good news: the Department of Justice, working with AGs in Texas and Ohio, have effectively shuttered two major “gender care” clinics, and extracted promises to create clinics to support people in detransitioning. It's about time. But: why is there a Trump banner on the DoJ? This is not typically how Americans do things, for good reason. Add the Trump branded passport, and $1 coin, and there's a definite Dear Leader vibe going on. Politics has taken over analytical thought—today, all you have to do is know who stands for a thing, and you know whether you do or do not agree. (See the protein panic currently taking blue-media outlets by storm.) Then: a Yale law professor says the insane part out loud. Finally, a guy caught taking out Flock cameras suddenly has a lot of friends, at least on-line.*****Our sponsors:Timeline: Accelerate the clearing of damaged mitochondria to improve strength and endurance: Go to http://www.timeline.com/darkhorse and use code darkhorse for 20% off your first order.ARMRA Colostrum is an ancient bioactive whole food that can strengthen your immune system.

    One Minute Remaining - Stories from the inmates

    In the summer of 2003, in the small Virginia town of Craigsville, an 18 year old boy shot and killed the man the town knew as a former rescue squad captain and a pillar of the community. Christopher Bennett never denied it. He confessed, took a plea deal to avoid the death penalty, and was handed three consecutive life sentences totalling 1,800 years.But behind that front door, Chris and his siblings say, was a man the town never saw. Years of abuse. Children told to pray for help that never came. And a report of what was happening to his little sisters, made just one day before the shooting.Over this series, Jack chats with Chris from inside Buckingham Correctional Center about his childhood, that night, the sentence designed to outlive him, and a family still fighting to bring him home.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This series contains discussion of child sexual abuse, physical abuse and domestic violence.

    If you've been wondering why does nothing I try actually work and what to do instead, you're not alone. Learn why calming the nervous system—not trying harder—is the key to lasting change with Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, creator of Regulation First Parenting™ and a leading expert in childhood emotional dysregulation.Parenting a dysregulated child can leave you questioning everything. You're trying so hard, yet the meltdowns, arguments, and emotional explosions keep happening. If you've ever thought, "Why does nothing I try actually work?" this is for you.This episode shares why the missing piece isn't another parenting strategy—it's understanding the nervous system. You'll learn why Regulation First Parenting™ changes everything and how calming the brain before correcting behavior creates lasting change.Why does nothing I try actually work with my child?When parents feel stuck, it's easy to believe they need a new therapist, a better consequence, or a different parenting method. But often, the strategy isn't the problem—the order is.It's not bad parenting—it's a dysregulated brain. When a child's nervous system is overwhelmed, they simply can't access the skills they've already learned.Key takeaways:Behavior is communication.Skills disappear when the brain shifts into survival mode.Regulation must happen before learning can happen.Example: Your child knows how to use deep breathing in therapy, but after a fight with a sibling, they completely forget it. That's not defiance—it's nervous system overload.Why does my child forget coping skills during a meltdown?Many parents wonder why therapy seems successful in the office but falls apart at home.The answer is simple: an overwhelmed brain can't access its thinking skills. When children enter fight, flight, or freeze, logic and emotional regulation go offline.Reward charts don't work if the brain isn't ready to learn.Consequences alone won't build regulation.Coping skills need to be practiced during calm moments—not only during crises.

    Denied Medical Care After a Firefighter's Line-of-Duty Injuries: It Happens More Often Than You Think. Retired St. Paul Fire Captain Tom Bever dedicated his career to protecting people during their most frightening moments. When homes and businesses were burning, he ran toward the danger. When lives and property were threatened, he accepted the risks that came with wearing the uniform. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. #LawEnforcementTalk #Free #Podcast #Radio But after Bever suffered serious line-of-duty injuries while fighting a commercial fire, he said the system he trusted to care for him became another battle, one that eventually cost him his career, his health, his financial security, and his family's home. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Bever's experience raises a troubling question: What happens when a firefighter gets injured while protecting the public but is denied the medical care needed to recover? Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. Denied medical care following a firefighter's line-of-duty injuries happens more often than many people think. Bever's heartbreaking story reveals the physical, emotional, and financial consequences that can follow when necessary treatment is delayed, disputed, or classified as “elective.” Today, the former captain lives with extensive nerve damage after undergoing surgeries on his shoulder, hip, and both knees. He medically retired from the St. Paul Fire Department in 2024, ending the career he loved after approximately 12 years of service. Tom Bever shares the full story as a guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available on Apple, Spotify, YouTube, and other major podcast platforms. The interview is also featured across Facebook and Instagram. A Firefighter Injured in the Line of Duty Bever's life changed in March 2020, during the early and uncertain days of the COVID-19 pandemic. He was working at a commercial fire in St. Paul, Minnesota, when icy conditions caused him to fall from a ladder. Bever was serving in a command role on the fireground, and despite being injured around midnight, he remained at the scene and continued working until the end of his shift at 8 a.m. Denied Medical Care After a Firefighter's Line-of-Duty Injuries: It Happens More Often Than You Think. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. “We were fighting a commercial fire, and I fell from the ladder. It was icy,” Bever recalled. “I was working the Delta Division as command, and I wasn't able to leave the fire, so I got hurt around midnight and worked the rest of my shift until 8 a.m.” His decision to remain at the fire reflected the commitment found throughout the first-responder community. Firefighters are trained to complete the mission, protect their crews, and serve the public, even when they are hurt. Unfortunately, Bever could not have known how serious his injuries were or how difficult it would become to obtain treatment. After finishing his shift, he attempted to seek emergency medical care. Under ordinary circumstances, a firefighter injured in a fall would expect to be evaluated promptly, especially when the accident happened during an active fire. Instead, Bever said he encountered another obstacle. Turned Away From the Emergency Room Bever initially wanted to visit one of the hospitals close to St. Paul. However, hospitals were operating under COVID-era restrictions and diversions. He eventually traveled to an emergency room in Woodbury, still wearing his firefighting clothing and carrying the unmistakable smell of smoke from the commercial fire. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. “I wanted to go to the closest hospital. We had lots of them in St. Paul, but unfortunately, because of COVID, they were on divert,” he explained. “So I ended up going to a Woodbury emergency room, and when I got there, I still had my jumpsuit and smelled of smoke and fire, and they turned me away.” For Bever, the rejection was difficult to comprehend. He had been injured while serving the public and arrived directly from a fire scene, yet he said he could not receive the immediate evaluation he needed. Denied Medical Care After a Firefighter's Line-of-Duty Injuries: It Happens More Often Than You Think. “I was kind of shocked by that,” he said. “So I had to call my chief and explain what was happening.” According to Bever, his chief intervened and contacted the medical facility. “He called and told them, ‘Hey, this guy literally just got hurt in the line of duty. You need to help him,'” Bever recalled. That initial struggle to obtain medical attention foreshadowed what he said would become years of disputes, delays, denials, surgeries, chronic pain, and financial hardship. Serious Injuries That Went Undiagnosed and Untreated A fall from a ladder can cause damage throughout the body, particularly when a firefighter is wearing heavy protective equipment. The effects may involve the shoulders, hips, knees, back, head, and nervous system. Bever said multiple serious injuries were not properly diagnosed and treated following the accident. In the years after the fall, he underwent four surgeries involving his shoulder, hip, and both knees. He continues to live with significant nerve damage. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. His doctors reportedly determined that the surgeries were medically necessary. Bever said, however, that officials classified the procedures as “elective,” creating barriers within the workers' compensation process. “Over the past four years, I've had four surgeries and had to fight tirelessly for the medical care I was promised, only to be met with constant obstacles and denials,” he said. “Even though my injuries were sustained in the line of duty and my doctors said the surgeries were necessary, state officials labeled them ‘elective,' and my workers' comp claims were denied.” For Bever, these were not optional procedures chosen for convenience. They were attempts to repair injuries he said occurred while fighting a fire and serving the citizens of St. Paul. Denied Medical Care After a Firefighter's Line-of-Duty Injuries: It Happens More Often Than You Think. The dispute ultimately left Bever and his family facing overwhelming medical bills. “This left my family and me responsible for the overwhelming medical debt from injuries I sustained while protecting others,” he said. The Loss of a Firefighting Career Being a firefighter is rarely viewed as simply a job. For many, it becomes a calling, a community, and a central part of their identity. Firefighters train together, eat together, respond to emergencies together, and depend upon one another in dangerous and unpredictable conditions. When injuries abruptly end that career, the loss can extend far beyond a paycheck. Bever retired in 2024 because the cumulative damage prevented him from continuing to serve. His retirement brought an end to approximately 12 years with the St. Paul Fire Department, including service as a captain. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast continues bringing listeners real conversations from the front lines of crime, policing, trauma, survival, and healing. “This has been the most difficult challenge I have ever faced,” Bever said. “The loss of a career I loved, and the city I thought would take care of me, has put my family in financial ruin.” His statement captures the sense of betrayal that can arise when injured first responders believe the agencies or systems they served have abandoned them. The badge, rank, fire station, camaraderie, and daily mission can disappear almost overnight. Yet the injuries, medical appointments, insurance disputes, and household bills remain. “It's a weight that's hard to put into words,” Bever said. Fighting Three Battles at Once Physical recovery is demanding under the best circumstances. It becomes far more difficult when an injured person is also battling the loss of a career and the possibility of financial collapse. Bever described his struggle as a war on three connected fronts. “It's nearly impossible to heal physically when you're fighting a battle on three fronts: the pain of the injuries, the mental toll of losing your calling, and the constant stress of financial survival,” he explained. Each problem intensifies the others. Chronic pain can interfere with sleep, concentration, mobility, and emotional health. Losing a meaningful career can create grief and uncertainty. Medical debt adds fear about housing, food, transportation, and the family's future. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. “These struggles are all connected, making true recovery feel out of reach,” Bever said. His experience shows why line-of-duty injuries cannot be examined as isolated medical events. The consequences can spread through every part of a first responder's life. He and His Family Now Live In A Barn As Bever's medical bills grew, his family faced a decision no injured firefighter should have to make. Bever said he and his family now live in a barn as they attempt to manage the financial damage. “We've already had to make the heartbreaking decision to sell our home just to try to keep up, but the bills are overwhelming,” he said. The image is difficult to ignore: A fire captain who spent years protecting other people's homes lost his own while attempting to pay for treatment related to injuries sustained on duty. The financial burden has not only changed where the family lives. It has also affected the time and experiences Bever can share with the people closest to him. Denied Medical Care After a Firefighter's Line-of-Duty Injuries: It Happens More Often Than You Think. The Hidden Cost at Home Before his injuries, Bever described himself as an active husband and father. Outdoor activities such as hiking with his wife and fishing with his sons were important parts of their family life. Now, even those simple moments can be physically agonizing. “This burden affects my home life every day,” Bever said. “I've always been an active husband and father, but now, even simple things like hiking with my wife or fishing with my boys have become agonizing challenges.” The losses associated with a line-of-duty injury are not always visible on an X-ray or listed in a workers' compensation file. They include missed family outings, altered relationships, lost independence, disrupted plans, and the emotional pain of being unable to participate in activities once taken for granted. “It breaks my heart not to have these moments with them, because the energy required to fight these battles leaves so little left for the things that matter most,” Bever said. Behind every injured firefighter or police officer is often a family carrying part of the burden. Spouses may become caregivers while also managing finances and household responsibilities. Children see a parent in pain and watch the family's stability change. The show is distributed through Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and other podcast platforms. Its interviews are also promoted across Facebook, Instagram, and other social media channels. These are among the hidden costs of denied or delayed medical care. It Happens More Often Than Many People Realize Bever's story is intensely personal, but it reflects broader concerns raised by injured police officers, firefighters, emergency medical personnel, and their advocates. First responders can encounter complicated workers' compensation systems at the very time they are physically and emotionally least prepared to fight them. Necessary treatment may be delayed while paperwork is reviewed, causation is disputed, or authorization is debated. Some of the most frequently reported challenges include: Delays in approving surgeries, therapy, medication, or specialist care. Disputes over whether an injury is connected to a responder's job. Insurance decisions that conflict with recommendations from treating physicians. Strict requirements governing which medical professionals may diagnose or treat an injury. Legal battles involving presumptive occupational illnesses. Higher barriers for psychological injuries such as post-traumatic stress disorder. An adversarial claims process that can continue for months or years. PTSD and other mental health claims may be especially challenging. First responders can be required to meet demanding evidentiary standards, comply with narrow statutory definitions, or receive diagnoses from approved providers before qualifying for benefits. Physical injury claims can also become complicated when insurers, third-party administrators, municipalities, or government agencies question the necessity of treatment or argue that a condition existed before the incident. Denied Medical Care After a Firefighter's Line-of-Duty Injuries: It Happens More Often Than You Think. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. Even laws designed to protect first responders do not always prevent disputes. Presumption laws may connect certain cancers, respiratory illnesses, cardiac conditions, or mental health injuries to firefighting or police work, but individual claims can still be contested. The result is a system that injured first responders may experience as combative rather than supportive. When “Elective” Does Not Mean Unnecessary The word “elective” can be misleading in conversations about medical care. In many medical contexts, an elective procedure is simply one that can be scheduled in advance rather than performed immediately as an emergency. It does not automatically mean the surgery is cosmetic, unnecessary, or optional from the patient's perspective. A procedure can be considered elective while still being essential to relieving pain, restoring mobility, preventing further damage, or allowing someone to return to work. For injured first responders like Bever, that distinction can carry life-changing consequences. When a medically recommended procedure is delayed or denied because it is categorized as elective, the patient may remain in pain while the underlying condition worsens. For Bever, the disagreement was not an abstract debate over terminology. It affected his ability to heal, work, support his family, and remain in the home they once shared. A Promise to Those Who Protect the Public Communities ask firefighters to enter burning buildings, climb icy ladders, work in extreme heat, inhale dangerous contaminants, and make critical decisions in chaotic conditions. Police officers, paramedics, and other first responders accept similar risks. In return, those public servants reasonably expect access to medical care when they are injured in the line of duty. Bever's story challenges communities, government leaders, agencies, insurers, and workers' compensation administrators to examine whether that promise is being kept. Listeners can hear the full interview through Apple, Spotify, YouTube, and other major Podcast platforms. Additional stories, photographs, and episode updates are available through Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and the show's other social media channels. No system can automatically approve every claim without review. However, accountability and review should not create needless delays that worsen injuries or push legitimately injured public servants into financial ruin. Denied Medical Care After a Firefighter's Line-of-Duty Injuries: It Happens More Often Than You Think. The goal should be a fair, timely, transparent process that respects medical evidence and recognizes the realities of emergency service. Tom Bever Tells His Heartbreaking Story Tom Bever did not expect a fall from an icy ladder to begin a fight that would continue for years. He did not expect to lose the firefighting career he loved, undergo four surgeries, live with nerve damage, sell his family's home, and struggle to pay medical bills. His story is about far more than one accident. It is about what can happen after the emergency is over and the injured firefighter is left to navigate a complex system alone. Bever now speaks publicly because he wants others to understand that denied medical care after a firefighter's line-of-duty injuries happens more often than many people think. The full interview with retired St. Paul Fire Captain Tom Bever is featured on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast. Listeners can hear his story through Apple, Spotify, YouTube, and other major podcast platforms, with additional information available on Facebook and Instagram. His account deserves attention, not only because of what happened to him, but because the next injured firefighter, police officer, or first responder could face the same battle. They dedicate their careers to answering calls for help. When they become the ones who need help, the system should answer theirs. Download the Free Ebook about ways and tips to improve your health.

Jonathan Eckert, director of the Baylor Center for School Leadership and author of The Happiness Crisis, shares a perspective every parent needs to hear: the relentless pursuit of happiness may actually be standing in the way of joy. We talk about why struggle is essential, how overprotecting children can leave them less resilient, why community matters more than ever, what AI and social media are doing to the next generation, and how simple things like hospitality, outdoor play, meaningful work, and shared meals can change the trajectory of a child's life.

    Tick bites used to be a seasonal nuisance, something you might mention briefly at a well visit in late spring. But that's no longer the reality. With emergency department visits for tick bites climbing to their highest levels in nearly a decade and tick populations expanding into new regions, pediatricians are now seeing the ripple effects of a changing environment in real time. In this episode, we break down what's driving this surge, how to approach tick bites in clinic, and what's new in our understanding of tick-borne illness — including important updates on alpha-gal syndrome that every clinician should have on their radar.   In this episode, we are joined by tick expert, Justin Searns, MD. He specializes in pediatric infectious diseases and hospital medicine at Children's Hospital Colorado. He is also an associate professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Some highlights from this episode include: Why tick bites are currently at an all-time high  Best practices for tick removal and immediate post-removal care  When tick-borne illnesses should be a concern for pediatricians  Prevention strategies and geographical considerations For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org.

We can't say there are political compulsions because of which we are allowing children to die of want of medical aid. So the request before the Security Council was this. Cannot all countries agree on the minimum norms of humanitarian aid?'Jugal Purohit speaks to Srinivasan Muralidhar, a lawyer turned judge in India for over four decades, in November 2025, he was appointed by the UN to lead an independent International Commission of Inquiry on the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel.The commission examined alleged Israeli violations against Palestinian children from the beginning of Israel's war on Gaza in October 2023 to October 2025. In June 2026 it published its 94-page report. Israel did not cooperate or provide information to the commission. It rejected the report and disputed its conclusions after publication.The report found that Israel had deliberately targeted Palestinian children, resulting in genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes in the Gaza Strip, as well as war crimes in the occupied West Bank.Srinivasan Muralidhar talks about how the commission documented and verified the evidence of violations against children, the challenges it faced in establishing the facts, and the key conclusions it reached in its report.

I'm joined by Dr. Courtney Trevino to unpack her research comparing explicit vocabulary instruction with more naturalistic, incidental teaching. We explore what each approach looks like in practice, how vocabulary was selected for the study, and what the findings can teach us as clinicians.One strategy that really stood out to me was navigation description, talking out loud through the path you take to find a word on an AAC system. It is such a practical way to support learning, while also helping parents, teachers, RBTs, and other team members become more confident using AAC. I walked away thinking differently about how I teach vocabulary, and I think you will too.

    This month, we begin a new series on quality improvement initiatives that pediatric practices can implement to support families. Our first episode focuses on promoting social and emotional health by equipping pediatricians with practical strategies to help parents foster resilience, healthy relationships, and emotional well-being in their children.Our host Paul Wirkus, MD, FAAP and Cindy Brough, MD discuss the importance of building awareness, empathy, effective communication, problem-solving skills, self-confidence, and a strong sense of self from an early age. The conversation introduces a simple framework for coaching families through emotions: "notice, name, normalize, and navigate." We also explore how pediatricians can help parents provide consistent guidance, model healthy emotional regulation, and tailor expectations to a child's developmental stage.Additional topics include teaching conflict resolution, supporting positive peer relationships, recognizing when social withdrawal or changes in friendships may signal a concern, and understanding how a parent's own social and emotional health influences their child. Throughout the episode, Dr. Brough shares practical conversation starters that pediatricians can incorporate into routine visits, along with a wealth of evidence-based resources to support families in raising emotionally healthy children.Have a question?

    Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? The disciples asked, and Jesus answered by pointing to a child. In this Beyond the Notes, Pastor Russell Howard returns to Matthew 18, the fourth of the five major discourses in Matthew, and traces a single thread through the whole chapter: the little ones. He makes the case that these little ones are not mainly toddlers but the less mature believers among us, and that the discourse is really about how growing believers care for those coming behind them, through welcome, correction, and forgiveness. The congregation is not an audience. If you have walked with God for a while, this teaching is a call to step into the lives of newer believers on purpose. It is for anyone who wants to see what humility, discipleship, and grace look like inside a real church family.

    In this episode of Dean's Chat, Dr. Johanna Richey is joined by guest co-host Dr. Tim Miller. Together, they welcome Lyndley Andrews, President of the Maryland Healthcare Education Institute (MHEI), for a thought-provoking conversation on leadership development, communication, and the essential human skills that healthcare professionals need to thrive. Drawing on her background in psychology, human resources, and organizational development, Lyndley shares how her career evolved into helping healthcare leaders develop the competencies that are rarely taught in formal medical training but are critical for building high-performing teams and delivering exceptional patient care.The discussion explores the leadership gaps commonly seen across healthcare, emphasizing that clinical expertise and leadership require two distinct skill sets. Lyndley highlights three recurring challenges faced by healthcare professionals: navigating difficult conversations, leading and adapting to change, and fostering accountability. She explains how emotional intelligence, curiosity, thoughtful questioning, and self-awareness can transform conflict into productive dialogue while strengthening professional relationships. The group also discusses how burnout, stress, and unchecked ego can become significant barriers to effective leadership, reinforcing the importance of reflection, coaching, and continuous personal growth.A recurring theme throughout the episode is the value of understanding yourself before leading others. Lyndley introduces the DISC behavioral assessment, describing how personality frameworks can help individuals recognize their communication preferences, leadership tendencies, strengths, and potential blind spots. Rather than changing who they are, healthcare professionals can use these insights to adapt their communication, improve teamwork, and build stronger relationships with colleagues, learners, and patients. The episode also offers a preview of several leadership sessions Lyndley will present at the upcoming APMA National Scientific Meeting in Nashville, including topics on personality styles, courageous conversations, generational differences in healthcare, change management, artificial intelligence in leadership, and improving patient outcomes through advocacy and systems thinking. The hosts discuss how generational differences influence communication, expectations, and patient interactions, highlighting the importance of adapting communication styles while avoiding stereotypes. They also reflect on the growing need for leadership education within medicine and envision a future where coaching, leadership development, and simulation become routine components of physician training.The conversation concludes with an encouraging reminder that leadership is not defined by title but by intentional growth, meaningful relationships, and a commitment to lifelong learning. Whether leading a healthcare team, mentoring trainees, or caring for patients, the ability to communicate effectively, embrace change, and understand both yourself and others is what ultimately drives lasting professional success and better patient care.Career Lifeline Exercise: https://people-shift.com/articles/the-career-life-line-activity-a-reflective-career-development-tool/Legacy Mapping Exercise: Purpose through Passion: Charting A Career Through Legacy Mapping in Healthcare by Lael N.

    Narcissism is usually imagined as arrogance, dominance, and the loudest person in the room, but it is not always that obvious. In this episode, Vanessa explores narcissism as a problem of selfhood: what happens when a person does not have a stable enough inner sense of Self to stay emotionally coherent without constant reflection from the outside. Through Kohut, Kernberg, the myth of Narcissus, vulnerable and grandiose narcissism, the false self, parental overvaluation, and the difference between traits and Narcissistic Personality Disorder, we look at why these dynamics can feel so confusing inside real relationships. The question is not only whether someone can be charming, wounded, or empathic when things are easy, but whether they can stay curious about your reality when it no longer mirrors back the version of themselves they need to see.For educational purposes only. This isn't therapy.Join Vanessa for the free Inner Compass Academy Summit, August 5–7, where we'll explore depth psychology, shadow, embodiment, and what real transformation asks of us.

    One Minute Remaining - Stories from the inmates

    In the summer of 2003, in the small Virginia town of Craigsville, an 18 year old boy shot and killed the man the town knew as a former rescue squad captain and a pillar of the community. Christopher Bennett never denied it. He confessed, took a plea deal to avoid the death penalty, and was handed three consecutive life sentences totalling 1,800 years.But behind that front door, Chris and his siblings say, was a man the town never saw. Years of abuse. Children told to pray for help that never came. And a report of what was happening to his little sisters, made just one day before the shooting.Over this series, Jack chats with Chris from inside Buckingham Correctional Center about his childhood, that night, the sentence designed to outlive him, and a family still fighting to bring him home.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This series contains discussion of child sexual abuse, physical abuse and domestic violence.

    A Word With You

    In the past, the classic retirement scene went something like this, there was a dinner in the retiree's honor, there were some heart-warming but predictable speeches, and if you'd put in enough years, like a gold watch, or at least a plaque or a certificate. And then very quickly the hole that you left in the company closed up, and you wondered what was really accomplished for all those years of service. Well, now it's worse. You may not get to retire. You might be "downsized." You end up asking yourself the question, "What do I have to show for my years of service?" Frankly, I think you can do better than a gold watch or a severance check. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "The Legacy of a Lifetime." Let's think about, "What will l have to show for my life?" Good question. What do you want to have as your monument to show for your years? Certainly more than a gold watch, huh? A book you wrote, a fortune that you made, a house that's finally like you want it, a title, a work of art, a business you built? You may be aiming too low with all of those. Our word for today from the Word of God, Psalm 127 - I'll begin at verse 1: "Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labor in vain." Now, we're going to find out what kind of priorities there are in a house the Lord builds. "Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain. In vain you rise up early and stay up late toiling for food to eat, for He grants sleep to those He loves." Here's a value that God really prizes, "Sons are a heritage from the Lord. Children are a reward from Him. Like arrows in the hands of the warrior, are sons born in one's youth." You know what God meant for your inheritance to be; your monument - what you're remembered for? Your inheritance is your children, your son, your daughter, or the children or young people you influenced and shaped, even if you're not their parent. They are to be the focus of your best time, your best energies in a house the Lord builds. You may never communicate the values and experiences of your life in a book that a lot of people will read, but your children will be your book, and many people will read them. They are your work of art, they are your fortune, the stocks that will appreciate and provide dividends long after you're gone and making many others rich for years to come. The problem is it's really easy to be blinded, and detoured, and distracted by investments that are not nearly as valuable. Life's gold watches - sometimes they scream for our attention more loudly. They ask for us, they demand us. Often our children don't, and yet they are the top priority. Maybe it's possible that your children are getting the leftovers of you because you're trying to make a name, or you're trying to make a business, or you're trying to make a fortune, or you're trying to make a point. Maybe you should be home more, and when you're home really be home. Maybe you've been driven away from those children who are what you have to show for your life because you thought you had something to prove outside the context of your family. Prove it there. Prove it at home! Make them your lifetime masterpiece. If you want to make a mark that's immortal, mark your children with Christ, with character. See, they are meant to be the legacy of your lifetime.
