Podcast appearances and mentions of christian practice

On this episode of Anchored, Jeremy and special guest co-host, CLT Chief of Staff  Katie Prefontaine, are joined by Cornel West and Robert George. Cornel serves as a professor of philosophy in Christian Practice at Union Theological Seminary and is an emeritus professor of African-American Studies at Princeton University. Robert is a professor of Jurisprudence and the director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University. The two discuss their deep bond of friendship, built on the basis of pursuing truth and fostering intellectual humility, explored in their recent book Truth Matters. They discuss how to cultivate these relationships and bring people to the table for these conversations. They conclude by examining the importance of studying both the progressive and conservative traditions for the flourishing of the individual and society as a whole.

In this episode, Senior Pastor Damein Schitter interviews Sarah Williamson about her practice of fasting. Sarah shares her initial experience with fasting in college, where it was primarily seen as a special measure for significant spiritual needs. Her perspective shifted when she began practicing regular fasting as part of her church community's "common rhythm," transitioning it from an occasional to a habitual spiritual discipline. Initially, fasting provided Sarah with profound spiritual encounters, described as moments where she felt deeply connected to God's love and presence. Over time, this experience shifted to a sense of "simulated suffering" that fosters deeper dependence on God, preventing spiritual complacency.Sarah also emphasizes the importance of communal fasting, describing how fasting regularly with her church community deepened relationships and mutual dependence. Practically, she details her approach, typically fasting once a week from dinner to dinner, acknowledging challenges such as balancing fasting with family responsibilities and daily tasks. Sarah concludes by encouraging listeners, even if hesitant, to begin fasting in small, faith-driven steps, as a pathway to greater intimacy with Jesus, despite its initial discomfort or confusion.

If you are anything like me, you experience unhelpful, dysregulating thoughts that seem to just stick around. They almost feel attacking. These thoughts are often the culprit for fear/ stress symptoms in our bodies, and so taking the time to stop, look at them and simply notice them, can help create the separation you need from these thoughts. You are not your thoughts. You are a child of God.

Dr. West teaches on the works of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, as well as courses in Philosophy of Religion, African American Critical Thought, and a wide range of subjects - including but by no means limited to - the classics, philosophy, politics, cultural theory, literature, and music. He has a passion to communicate to a vast variety of public in order to keep alive the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. – a legacy of telling the truth and bearing witness to love and justice.

Professor Dr. Hassanah El-Yacoubi, an esteemed scholar, shared insights that illuminated minds and inspired hearts. Dr. Soboh, Chairman of the Shura Council, brought his wealth of experience and deep understanding of community dynamics to the fore. L

What exactly is satanic? We have a wrong perception of what Jesus would call satanic meaning having the characteristics of satan. It is important to know. Every christian should listen closely and humbly to this intense message.

In this episode, Caleb discusses the topic of theological interpretation of Scripture with Daniel Treier (PhD, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) professor of theology at Wheaton College. The theological interpretation of Scripture (TIS) is not so much a method, but a mode of interpretation; not a neatly defined set of steps, but a set of concerns. In this discussion, Caleb and Dan focus on the three of the central and somewhat defining concerns that animate most advocates of TIS: reaction, retrieval, and rules.

Every true Christian perseveres in this way of universal obedience, diligent and earnest service of God, through all the various kinds of trials that he meets with, to the end of life. That all true saints, all who obtain eternal life, do thus persevere in the practice of religion, and the service of God, is a doctrine so abundantly taught in the Scripture, that particularly to rehearse all the texts which imply it would be endless. I shall content myself with referring to some in the margin.

Dr. Sheryl Johnson is here to share about her book, Serving Money, Serving God: Aligning Radical Justice, Christian Practice, and Church Life. In her research, she examines how Christian finance and stewardship approaches tend to emphasize neoliberal values and entrench white privilege - and her goal is to help us figure out how to change that.About SherylRev Dr Sheryl Johnson serves as a Visiting Faculty Lecturer at Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary and a minister at the Congregational Church of San Mateo.

This was a talk I gave for the Armor of God Men's Group on April 20th, 2023 at St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church's Life Center. In it I go over what fasting is, giving definitions and explanations from Aquinas, De Sales, and Benedict XVI. I also give a history of the Church's fasting disciplines from the Old Testament to the present day. Lastly, I offer some reflections on how these previous disciplines can spur us on to fast with more intentionality today.

In today's episode, we talk about the ways we see culture influencing the way we live out our faith – both for better and for worse. Listen, it's a discussion. We're working through things ourselves and we want to share our thought process with you. This isn't a chance to lament the ways that cultural ideology is making its way into doctrine but rather a step back to look at more the subtle influence. But before we get there...

He spent all of his teen years under the Nazi occupation, was drafted into the army, but never went to the front lines. He eventually escaped and was hidden by his mother until the occupation ended.After the war, Franz studied art, anthropology, and psychology, receiving an MA from the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts and a PhD from the University of Vienna. In 1952 he followed his family who had emigrated to the United States. In 1953 he joined a newly founded Benedictine community in Elmira, NY, Mount Saviour Monastery, where he became “Brother David.” In 1958/59 Brother David was a Postdoctoral Fellow at Cornell University, where he also became the first Roman Catholic to hold the Thorpe Lectureship, following Bishop J.D.R.

His Zen teachers were Hakuun Yasutani Roshi, Soen Nakagawa Roshi, Shunryu Suzuki Roshi, and Eido Shimano Roshi. He co-founded the Center for Spiritual Studies in 1968 and received the 1975 Martin Buber Award for his achievements in building bridges between religious traditions.Together with Thomas Merton, Brother David helped launch a renewal of religious life.

In the 16th century, Michel de Montaigne created a new form of literary self-expression. He called these short pieces "essays," from the French verb "essayer" - "to try." In Episode 48 of everyone's favorite literary podcast hosted by genetic duplicates, Jude and John "try" to explain the appeal of essays to them, and why they find it to be one of the most satisfying and thought-provoking of all literary forms. We then go on to recommend some of our personal favorite collections and writers of essays, which ones we badly want to read and just haven't gotten to, and which writers are regarded as masters of the craft. Essays can be about anyone or anything, and that's why this is such a rich literary rabbit hole to get lost in. We hope you enjoy this all non-fiction episode of the Book XChange podcast!

“Evangelicals in America are one of the most unreached people groups.” - Tony AndersonOn this episode, Michael concludes his conversation with Tony Anderson. As the Executive Producer of the film, The Heart of Man, Tony was intimately involved with every facet of the movie. Tony and Michael continue their discussion about the film but also delve into topics like why African American women are so drawn to the movie, why millions in Saudi Arabia listen to his music, and what Tony's personal relationship with the Lord looks like on a daily basis.The interview was conducted just before the 2017 release and I'd like to reiterate, The Heart of Man is a film we highly recommend - it can be found on multiple streaming platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime.
