Mes chers camarades, bien le bonjour ! On entend souvent qu'Eugène Viollet-le-Duc a retouché à pas mal de monuments pour les adapter à sa vision du Moyen Âge, voire carrément à des villes, comme ça a pu être le cas pour la Cité de Carcassonne ! Mais alors la Carcassonne médiévale, elle ressemblait à quoi ? Eh bien pour en avoir un aperçu, j'ai un conseil : la nouvelle expédition immersive “Les Derniers Remparts, Carcassonne 1304”, qui a été réalisée par Excurio, le partenaire du nouvel entretien que vous pourrez entendre sur le podcast dans quelques jours ! Excurio a déjà par le passé réalisé plusieurs expériences en réalité virtuelle en lien avec l'Histoire, et dans celle-ci, on suit les pas d'un jeune seigneur du nord du royaume de France dans la Carcassonne du début du 14e siècle. Pour la réaliser, ses équipes ont travaillé main dans la main tout au long du projet avec des spécialistes, et notamment avec le CMN, le Centre des Monuments Nationaux. Cela a généré de nombreux échanges passionnants, et à ce sujet mon invité du jour, Ludovic Marguerie, qui a participé à plusieurs niveaux à la réalisation de cette expédition immersive, nous donne quelques anecdotes à propos de changements faits suite à ces discussions. Je n'en dis pas plus, bonne écoute !➤ Pour en savoir plus sur l'expédition immersive : ➜ Jetez un œil au site d'Excurio : https://www.excurio.com/les-derniers-remparts/➜ Et à celui du Centre des Monuments Nationaux : https://www.monuments-nationaux.fr/innovation/projets-innovants/les-derniers-remparts-carcassonne-1304

Send us a textIn 11 short years of marriage, Kaitlyn McKinney and husband Jared have experienced more tragedies, challenges, and heartbreaks than many married couples do in a lifetime together. Two cancer diagnoses, a myriad of lifesaving surgeries, four failed adoptions, and a host of disappointments would have broken many down, but have proven to only strengthen this church-planting couple. In this episode of Let's Talk with Sanctuary, hear the heartfelt worship pour out from Kaitlyn's heart as she recounts the countless blessings she and Jared have discovered when faith in Jesus is what is holding you together.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Kaitlyn McKinney, her husband Jared, their sweet daughter Wrenley, and two doodle pups live in Billings, Montana where they pastor Canvas Church. The couple moved to Montana in 2017 from Seattle Washington where they served as youth pastors for several years. Kaitlynn is passionate about the local church and loves what they get to do. Kaitlyn adds, “I don't feel complete unless my nails are done, my eyebrows are presentable, I'm wearing something cozy and have coffee in hand.” She's an avid shopper, which makes living in Montana somewhat of a challenge, so traveling is also a must. Kaitlyn currently serves as the worship director at Canvas Church and often sings her sentences or breaks out in a good song when it seems necessary. The last five years have included her husband battling leukemia twice, as well as four adoption disruptions. But through it all, The Lord has been teaching her to rely on Him more than ever. “I don't know how to make it through a day without Jesus, and my hope is to teach people that even in your lowest valley God is still good,” Kaitlyn adds. She reminds us the biggest thing she's learned is not to blame God, but to lean into Him further.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Connect with today's featured guest, Kaitlyn McKinney:Facebook: @KaitlynMcKinneyInstagram: @kaitlynmckinney7Featured:Earn a chance to win a $100 Amazon gift card by giving Let's Talk with Sanctuary a Rating + Review on Apple podcasts!Join Sanctuary's private Facebook group for ministry wives.Follow Sanctuary on Instagram @sanctuarym2mwMany thanks to our host, Bridgette Tomlin, and engineer Justin Lynn of Justin Lynn Music.

Send us a textThroughout their multi-decade tenure in vocational ministry, predominantly as lead pastors, Bryan and Haley Jarrett have come to the conclusion: Haley prefers the shadows to the spotlight. She's uncomfortable with platform ministry and, despite her many efforts to "grow into the part", has come to recognize that she is called to her husband, and not quite as much to the traditional roles with which the title of "pastor's wife" has often been culturally linked. Cultural expectations, Bryan reminds us, are not Scriptural expectations. In this episode both Bryan and Haley join host Bridgette Tomlin to discuss unhealthy demands, the conversations ministry couples should be having privately, and how to promote women in leadership roles without demeaning those who thrive behind-the-scenes.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Abuse, abandonment, and addiction defined Bryan's early life. After meeting Jesus, God's grace not only dealt with his sin, but also began to heal the hurts of his past. This experience with grace forged in him a passion for broken people. Pastor Bryan serves in leadership roles in multiple universities, missions agencies, church planting networks, and global financial institutions. He has a B.A., an M.A., and an earned Doctorate. He is an author and sought-after speaker, both in the U.S. and internationally. In 2015, he and Haley founded Lonesome Dove Ranch, a place of healing for abused children and a place of rest and resourcing for America's small-town pastors.According to Bryan, his most honorable professional title is being called “Pastor” by the great people of Northplace Church. Pastor Bryan is married to his high school sweetheart, Haley. They have three young adult children. In August, Bryan and Haley became grandparents for the first time to grandson, Lincoln James Jarrett.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Connect with today's guests, Bryan and Haley:Haley IG: @hjarrettBryan: @drbryanjarrettFeatured: Learn about Let's RetreatListen to Pastor Bryan's message at the CMN Conference.Learn about Lonesome Dove RanchMany thanks to our host, Bridgette Tomlin, and engineer Justin Lynn of Justin Lynn Music.

Ladies and gents, Dani Deahl is BACK on SITB and it's an absolute honor. Dani is doing some incredible things right now in dance music but for this episode we mostly focused on Chicago Music Nexus and her involvement in the event. Dani is one of the panelists on the "Adapt or Die" portion of CMN and I wanted to get Dani's take on a few things leading up to the conference. As a multi-faceted individual in dance music, her unique perspective and experience deserves all the respect in the world. This was a really fun conversation about the state of the industry, evolving an artists brand, and why you should care about something like Chicago Music Nexus. Dani, I appreciate you so much and it's always so much fun choppin it up with you!

This is the FIRST co-hosted episode with my fellow podcaster, friend and business partner Olivia Mancuso. Some of you might have seen but Olivia and I are hosting a 1 day conference and networking event later this year called "Chicago Music Nexus" CMN was created to help fill a massive void in the US dance market where artists can learn, grow, and collaborate together in a space outside of the club or festival. Our mission is to help artists, entrepreneurs and music business professionals elevate their brands by connecting with other like-minded individuals through engaging panels and conversations with leaders from various parts of the industry. It's happening Saturday November 23rd at Loft Lucia and we couldn't be more excited to make it all happen. This episode is dedicated to the background on why Olivia and I created CMN, the panels, the people, the experience and so much more. If you're as serious as you say or think you are about building a career in the music industry, then we should see your bright smiling face in November.

In this conversation, Edmund interviews Krisanne Vaillancourt Murphy, the executive director of the Catholic Mobilizing Network (CMN), about the fifth commandment and the work of CMN in promoting the value of life over death. They discuss the history and implications of the death penalty, the role of faith-based advocacy, and the challenges of promoting restorative justice. They also explore the misconceptions and myths surrounding the death penalty and the need for a deeper understanding of the Gospel's call to respect life. The conversation explores the themes of justice, vengeance, and retribution in relation to the death penalty. The revised paragraph 2267 of the Catechism is discussed, highlighting the church's teaching that the death penalty is inadmissible because it attacks the inviolability and dignity of the human person. The conversation also touches on the importance of restorative justice and building a culture of life.00:00 Edmund introduces Krisanne Vaillancourt-Murphy, Executive Director of the Catholic Mobilizing Network (CMN). Krisanne shares her journey into faith-based advocacy, driven by a desire to address social justice issues. She discusses her inspiration from Pope Francis and the film "Dead Man Walking," emphasizing the importance of examining societal norms and moral convictions regarding the death penalty.09:26 In this segment, Edmund and Krisanne discuss surprising facts about the death penalty.

They delve into its historical and racial context, citing that half of US states still uphold it, driven by misconceptions about deterrence and retribution. Krisanne also reveals the staggering number of exonerations from death row and emphasizes the system's inherent flaws and injustices.20:41 Edmund and Krisanne discuss the Church's teaching regarding the death penalty and the revisions to paragraph 2267 of the catechism in 2018. They clarify that the Church's teaching never fundamentally changed, but the practical application changed with society's capacity to protect itself from criminals without resorting to death. The revision reflects a clear stance against the death penalty, aligning with the consistent call for human dignity.28:10 Krisanne reflects on the profound message in paragraph 2267 of the catechism, emphasizing the importance of not depriving anyone, regardless of their crime, of the possibility of redemption. She draws parallels to St. Paul's conversion, highlighting the abundant mercy of God.

They conclude with a call to action, urging listeners to engage in restorative justice efforts and advocate against the death penalty.This episode is sponsored This episode is sponsored by Catholic Charities USA.  Help Catholic Charities serve your neighbors in need.  Join us at  www.WeAreThere.US. An OSV Podcasts partner.

Nossos sócios Luiz Eduardo Portella, Tomás Goulart e Sarah Campos debatem, no episódio de hoje, os principais acontecimentos da semana no Brasil e no mundo.⁠ ⁠ ⁠No cenário internacional, foram divulgados alguns números mistos nos EUA: os dados de varejo vieram mais fracos que o esperado, com revisões baixistas para trás, e, em contrapartida, os índices de atividade das empresas (PMIs) voltaram a subir, com recuperação do componente de emprego e comentários positivos sobre o crescimento. Já na Europa, os PMIs vieram mais fracos, refletindo também algum efeito negativo das incertezas sobre as eleições francesas. No Reino Unido, a inflação de serviços veio mais alta que o esperado, e o banco central optou por manutenção dos juros, mas com viés um pouco mais dovish. ⁠ No Brasil, o destaque foi a reunião do Copom, que também optou por manter os juros inalterados, mas com unanimidade dos votos do comitê. As projeções condicionais de inflação, com os juros estáveis, vieram um pouco mais baixas que o esperado. Antes e após a reunião, o presidente Lula e outros membros do PT deram diversas declarações a respeito da condução de política monetária, o que foi negativamente interpretado pelo mercado.  ⁠ Nos EUA, os juros abriram entre 3 e 5 bps, e as bolsas tiveram pequenas altas: S&P500 +0,61% e Nasdaq +0,21%. No Brasil, os juros fecharam entre 1 e 7 bps, o Ibovespa subiu 1,4% e o real seguiu desvalorizando (-1,05%). ⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Na próxima semana será importante acompanhar a divulgação dos dados de inflação (PCE) e a parte de investimentos nos dados de bens duráveis dos EUA, além do primeiro debate entre Biden e Trump. No Brasil, a atenção fica para a ata do Copom, o Relatório Trimestral de Inflação, o IPCA-15 e a reunião do CMN. ⁠ Não deixe de conferir!⁠

Identity is under attack, and the stakes have never been higher. Ever felt like you weren’t enough or feared your past defines you? Here’s hope! Join me today on Brave Men as we confront the crucial themes shaping the lives of Christian men today. From the relentless attack on the family to the disruption of the family unit by fatherlessness to the devil's strategic distortion of our sense of self, we at war, and identity is one of our greatest weapons.

From our first day of ministry in the Middle East, we were struck by the vibrant faith of the underground church leaders, their stories a testament to the power of perseverance in the face of adversity. This episode pulls back the curtain on the remarkable expansion of Christianity in Iran, a land where faith comes at a high cost, following Jesus Christ a choice often made not just with your words, but possibly with your life. Our special guest, David Yeghnazar from Elam Ministries, shares with us not just the history woven into his family's faith journey but also the broader narrative of Iran's church, rising like a phoenix from the ashes of the Islamic revolution. This will encourage you and also compel you to greater works - to get things done where we live, while our brothers in other nations stay the course for Christ. These stories of resilience and discipleship are fuel for our mission, reminding us that the true measure of a man's faith is not found in serenity, but in the crucible of trials. David and Paul also talk about the new Christian Men’s Network thrust into Arabic nations. CMN is actively translating resources for discipling men into Farsi, Arabic, Russian, Ukrainian and other languages for the Middle East and Central Asian nations.  Brave Men is a production of the Christian Men’s Network.

Here’s some hope in your leadership journey. This week, explore the intrinsic connection between joy and a deep-seated relationship with Jesus with my guest, great friend Michael Murphy and our guest host this episode, my son Brandon Cole. They discuss how joy can act as a spiritual barometer and the profound impact of authentic community within the church.  With Mike's insights from his book "XLR8" and his extensive experience in coaching pastors, along with Brandon's fresh perspective from his years leading a local congregation, C3 Fort Worth, this conversation is a treasure trove of wisdom to deepen your faith and leadership skills. Unpacking the complexities of ministry to men and the evolving narrative of masculinity in today's society they confront the barriers in our culture today. Obstacles that obscure our joy, like unresolved conflicts and internal insecurities. They hit the need for authenticity in cultivating true joy and the fruits of the spirit.  In this fascinating convo, they tackle the pressing issues facing church leaders - from the challenges of pastoral mentorship to the pitfalls of focusing too heavily on church attendance and finances as a metric. They rebuild the metric of success shifting it towards intentional disciple-making and investing in people as the hallmark of a thriving ministry. This episode is an invitation to all who seek to balance leadership, personal growth, and community in their lives, reminding us of the constants amidst a world in flux: the Holy Spirit, the Word, the Church, and our shared mission.

The battle scars of life often linger beneath the surface, manifesting in ways that can challenge our relationships and personal well-being. As Josh and I candidly discuss the shadows cast by father wounds and the distortions created by pornography, we reveal a path forward—one punctuated by faith in Christ, vulnerability, intentional living, and the pursuit of deep, meaningful friendships. Together, we navigate the delicate pathways of neuroplasticity, uncovering how our past, our pain, and our potential for healing are influenced by both our neurological makeup and our faith. This is about navigating life with grace, power and compassion. We discover it’s not just about us, but how we help others in the journey of life.

Embarking on a spiritual odyssey often means confronting the comfort zones that dull our fervor. Stephen Prouse is a spiritual warrior - boldly confronting the comfort zones of a culture committed to self justification. A strong man with a strong voice Stephen is well known online as the Fifth Horseman and the Fourth Watch. But his personal story has been one of a series of obstacles resulting in a dynamic faith in Jesus that defines his heart and life.  Today on Brave Men a robust conversation that unveils the perils of spiritual complacency and the church's posture amidst societal turbulence. Together, we dissect the necessity for believers to put on the full armor of God, not for a parade but for the warfare of faith. We hit the power of prayer to reshape not just our circumstances but our own hearts. Why we must be clear on the fight that we face and the pivotal role of adversity in crafting a robust, Christ-centric life. Stephen opens up a personal narrative most have never heard … the gritty realities of navigating family dynamics and the shaping of our faith amidst a culture that denies Christ. Stephen is a leading voice in the Godly restoration of manhood and masculinity. There is a renewal taking place and it’s time for the men of God to stand for truth, love and righteousness. Today’s Brave Men calls upon men to anchor their identities in Christ, building a life lived with vigorous faith and divine purpose. Join us as we call men across the nations to the adventure of following Jesus Christ and his call to rise up as warriors of faith.

He was the seasoned voice behind the legendary evangelist Billy Graham for over three decades and his expertise has helped amplify the message of thought leaders such as Rick Warren, Bishop Jakes, The Jesus Film, Tony Evans and many others.

Fatherhood and ministry often pull at the seams of a man's life, demanding a delicate balance that can feel impossible to achieve. We get into the grit of our own upbringing, recognizing the silent sacrifices made by our fathers and the influence it casts on the next generation. Our conversation weaves through the Christian Men's Network's mission to cultivate enduring discipleship in local churches, with the promise of seeing the power of God transform families and nations alike. We hit the issues of today’s pastoral life. From burnout to imposter syndrome, we discuss the necessity for a brotherhood of support, grounding our identities in Christ above all else.

When the echoes of my son's laughter blended with the crackling of the campfire, a realization struck me: these are the moments that forge a legacy. That's the heart of our latest episode, where Brian Molitor and I explore the transformative role of fathers and mentors in shaping future generations. The conversation is charged with purpose as we discuss not just the duty but the art of raising boys to become men of integrity, conviction and character in Christ. The path from boyhood to manhood is strewn with obstacles, detours and competing voices. For most boys there is not an articulated rite of passage – for most men they can’t tell you when they became a man. Brian shares his own story that led to the writing of his signature book "Boy's Passage, Man's Journey." We dissect the integral part that family elders and grandparents play, painting a picture of the wisdom and guidance they can offer during these critical life shifts. It's a tribute to the time-honored practices that ensure the torch of maturity and responsibility is passed on with clarity and honor. In our CMN curriculum we predicate the transition into manhood with the phrase, “Maturity doesn’t come with age, but with the acceptance of responsibility”. This episode with Brian is an impassioned call for men to step into their purpose, heal from their past, and lead with a robust spirit of mentorship as we follow Jesus with all our hearts.

He almost lost it all … then, through remarkable tenacity and finding renewal in Christ, recaptured his masculine virtue. Now my friend Skylar Lewis is crushing it. Join me on a radical, sacred, transformative journey with Skylar, founder of Rise Up Kings, as we explore the reconstruction and revival of authentic masculinity. We shatter the myths surrounding toxic masculinity, embrace the rigors of a spiritually focused man, and learn how to balance the pressures of work, family, and friendships and how to live a truly fulfilling life. He candidly opens up about the journey that brought him to create the Rise Up Kings program, emphasizing the profound impact it's had on men globally. This episode is more than just a conversation; it's an invitation to witness how vulnerability and emotional intimacy can be the mortar in building stronger relationships and the fortitude that true discipline fosters within. From navigating triggers to embracing the disciplines of being a truly Christ-centered man we get real and light a path for all men to know who they are and why they are on the earth. Skylar's heartfelt narrative from a business-driven perspective to one centered on faith, family, fitness, and finance showcases the profound impact that balance can have on a man's life. Not only does this conversation spotlight the essential pillars of a fulfilling existence, but it also serves as a testament to the strength found in authentic role models and their ability to inspire change. There can be no discussion about personal growth without centering on the work of Jesus in our lives – the power of grace and forgiveness. We underscore the importance of resilience, repentance, and God's enduring mercy. Finally, the concept of true masculinity is reaffirmed, advocating for spaces where men can heal, grow, and deepen their faith, while positively impacting their families and communities. Skylar's dedication to fostering such communities and his belief in the inherent goodness of Christ-like masculinity serve as a beacon for those seeking to live out their divine calling. This is how we truly become the champions and leaders our families and our culture need us to be. Brave Men is a production of the Christian Men’s Network.

When Nancy Houston and I sat down to record this podcast, little did we know that our conversation would travel such depths of the human heart, exploring the rhythms of building healthy relationships. This is part two of a remarkable and healing conversation.   Enriched by personal stories and a shared history with our spouses, we discuss the vital shift from self-centered desires to a nurturing, selfless love. What it means to live a strong, honest, authentic life as a man following Jesus. This shift is not just a theological or philosophical idea; it's the bedrock of deep connection and an enduring marriage. As we peel back the layers, we uncover the importance of supportive communities within local churches, and the transformative role that personal and leadership health play in our lives and the lives of those we touch.   Our journey takes us through the often-treacherous terrain of vulnerability and intimacy and masculinity. With Nancy's insights as a licensed professional counselor guiding the way we confront the heavy issues of guilt and shame that can stifle relationships and stop our growth as a man.   We walk boldly down the path to forgiveness—a journey that can change family dynamics and lead to profound healing. It's a candid look at the challenges all men face in showing vulnerability, the pressures of societal masculinity, and how being real with our emotions and emotional health can lead to stronger, more intimate relationships. The conversation is as much about personal growth as it is about changing perceptions of what it means to be a Christian man in today's world.   We hit the power of fatherhood and masculinity, from roughhousing with our kids to setting the stage for their future security and self-worth. We wrap up with a spotlight on the Christian Men's Network's global initiative, inspiring men to live with passion and faith. Our dialogue is an invitation—join us in this profound discussion and be part of a movement towards God honoring relationships and becoming a better man.    Brave Men is a production of the Christian Men’s Network.

Her life looked like it was headed to an apocalyptic crushing conclusion … then an unexpected turnaround when she met Jesus and Ron.

In this candid and vulnerable conversation Dave Novak leads us into the depths of despair and pain from father wounds as recounted in his remarkable book “No More Dad Issues”.

Are you prepared to break free from the difficulties impacting your emotions, decisions, and relationships due to tension stemming from your dad? Listen and engage with Paul Cole and Dave Novak as we take a heartfelt journey through the dark tunnels of trauma to the sunlight of healing.

The episode takes a reflective turn as I share about my wife and me and our own moments of rediscovering joy within our walk of faith. A profound shift in perspective transformed our sense of duty into a powerful life of passion. This enriched our marriage and deepened our understanding of true ministry. It is a strong reminder that sharing our faith shines a beacon of hope in even the darkest corridors, lighting up our walk with Jesus.  Our high-octane discussion culminates with an invitation to embrace the nudges of the Holy Spirit, to defeat fear with faith, and to discover the unshakeable joy that comes from living freely in God's favor. With passionate stories we explore how our smallest gestures can have the largest impact, shaping lives and legacies. Whether you're a gearhead, a seeker, or just someone curious about the intersection of passion and faith, this episode offers a roadmap to igniting a life of purpose, fulfillment, and joy.

Today's episode marks a final chapter in this series specifically touching on Believers in Christ Jesus and how their faith influences the way they show up in this work. In closing, I am joined by Caitlin Morneua, the Director of Restorative Justice for the Catholic Mobilizing Network. The Catholic Mobilizing Network is a nationwide organization with two very distinct calls - a call to end the usage of the death penalty and a call to promote a restorative justice system.

Vietnam. Just that name brings back memories and pain for many. For others the compelling story of an emerging global economy. For a remarkable group of people it is about the compassion to help so many who are the human toll of a century of conflict. And in the midst of this mix and against many obstacles is an emerging church. Brimming with hope and living in faith that tomorrow will be a better day. That Jesus changes everything. Along with our partner Giving It Back To Kids and traveling with good friend Ps. Joe Onasai we conducted a powerful series of events in Vietnam recently. It was awesome. In a conversation with my son Bryce we recount the stories. BraveMen podcast is a production of the Christian Men’s Network. CMN.men

My friend Chris Harper takes us on a journey of joy, fatherhood, realness and biblical masculinity in this enjoyable and motivating episode of BraveMen. Chris is the Chief Storyteller at Better Man ministries, an ally with Christian Men’s Network and a powerful voice for Biblical masculinity across the nations. Chris is an engaging witness of the power of God and illustrates it by recounting how he went from being a law student to the pastor of a local church. It’s a crazy story – and that’s Chris. He has an earned doctorate from Southwest Seminary and travels and writes extensively. The ministry he leads came out of the “Men’s Fraternity” outreach of Pastor Robert Lewis and “33 the Series”. Harper believes the world needs some bold men for Jesus. And that’s what you’ll get today – you’ll be fired up after listening to Paul and Chris. Chris is married with four children, loves Nashville hot chicken, sports of all kinds and 90’s hip-hop. He believes hospitality is the new evangelism and that art, music, community and commerce are the most powerful mediums for gospel witness.
