What does it mean to treat every person as made in the image of God? In his sermon at St. Peter's by-the-Sea Episcopal Church in Narragansett, Rhode Island, Bishop Nicholas Knisely unpacks Matthew 10:40-42 — Jesus' promise that even the smallest act of kindness, a cup of cold water offered in his name, carries an extraordinary reward.Bishop Knisely makes the case that true kindness flows not from what someone has done to deserve it, but from who they are in relationship with God. Every human being carries the image of God, and if we could see each other the way angels do, we would treat every person with the dignity that is already theirs.His challenge: start with your neighborhood. Treat people as worthy of respect not because of how they vote, what they believe, or how they behave — but simply because they are human and they are a child of God.
IntroductionThe welcome of baptism is for all God's children. This baptismal gift sets us free from the power of sin and death. In today's gospel, Christ promises that the disciple who gives a cup of cold water to the little ones serves Christ himself. From worship we are sent on our baptismal mission: to serve the little ones of this world and to be a sign of God's merciful welcome.ReadingsPsalm 89:1-4, 15-18, Romans 6:12-23 and Matthew 10:40-42

On this Sunday, we came to three little verses that cap off Matthew 10. And it's the last thing— the last bit of instruction, the final words if commission— that Jesus gave before He sent His Apostles off on their mission. Wonder if the apostles were trying to grapple with the fact that their lives truly were no longer their own? Now they had to take on the same mission— and even the destiny— of their Master.
We worship together in-person and stream our service each week. If you would like to watch the entire worship service, it is available to view on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@WPCRICHMOND/streams.This morning, we welcome Rev. Anna C. GheenScripture: Matthew 10:40-42
In a world that celebrates the powerful, the successful, and the highly visible, Jesus tells a very different story. Beginning with a memorable account from preacher Fred Craddock, this sermon explores one of the most surprising promises in the Gospel: that the person who offers something as simple as a cup of cold water stands alongside prophets and the righteous in the Kingdom of God. Through ordinary acts of love, quiet faithfulness, and unseen service, Christ reveals that no disciple is insignificant and no gift offered in faith is ever forgotten. This is a message of grace for everyone who has ever wondered whether their small acts of kindness really matter.
Refreshing others and being refreshed as we find our life by losing it. Homily for the Thirteenth Sunday of Ordinary Time.

Cold water oceans do not always get the same attention as coral reefs and tropical beaches, but they are full of incredible life, beauty, and ecological importance. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, Andrew Lewin speaks with Kirsti Burnett about why cold and temperate marine ecosystems deserve more love, curiosity, and protection. From Nova Scotia's eelgrass beds and coastal inlets to blue sharks, mola mola, leatherback sea turtles, North Atlantic right whales, and cold water kelp forests, this conversation celebrates the ocean environments that many people overlook. The episode also explores why local knowledge, science communication, and personal connection are essential for helping people care about the ocean close to home.

Ocean sunfish are one of the strangest fish on Earth. They can look like a giant floating dinner plate, drift sideways at the surface, and appear almost lifeless, but their strange behaviour is part of an incredible survival strategy. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, Andrew Lewin explores why the mola mola, also known as the ocean sunfish, spends time in cold Canadian waters. These waters may not look tropical or crystal clear, but they are packed with plankton, jellyfish, nutrients, and life. That productivity attracts whales, turtles, seabirds, sharks, and even one of the heaviest bony fish on the planet. This episode is a reminder that cold water oceans are not boring. They are full of surprises, strange animals, and signs of healthy food webs hiding in plain sight.

What if the thing that saved your mental health wasn't a pill, a program, or a therapist — but a stranger in a gym telling you that you looked terrible and needed a cold shower? Get 12% off an Ice Barrel or Chiller with code DRMOTLEY at https://shorturl.at/3Ejhb. That's the real origin story of Ice Barrel. Wyatt Ewing didn't build Ice Barrel for athletes. He built it because cold therapy stopped his anxiety and depression when nothing else could. In this episode, Dr. Motley and the founder of Ice Barrel go deep on the nervous system science of cold exposure, the vagus nerve, contrast therapy, and why just 2 minutes in cold water can reset your entire stress response. Plus: Wyatt's vision quest story post-acquisition that nobody's heard. 00:00 - Introduction 03:20 - Wyatt's Story 04:14 - The Stranger who Changed Everything 05:07 - Cold Shower to Ice Barrel 06:19 - Going Broke to Build Something Real 09:08 - Why Cold Therapy is Unlike Anything Else 17:03 - Wyatt's Personal Protocol 18:16 - Modern Comfort, Ancient Struggle 23:00 - What Cold Does to a Nervous System Under Pressure 32:02 - Mammalian Dive Reflex and the Vagus Nerve 34:50 - Contrast Therapy is the Future 42:06 - Cold Has Been Following Me My Whole Life 49:05 - Youth Athletics and the Recovery Gap 51:14 - Where You Can Find Wyatt Key Takeaways Cold therapy works in 2 minutes. Unlike exercise, meditation, or supplementation, cold immersion produces immediate, measurable changes in mood, energy, and stress hormones. Wyatt's benchmark: 'I've never seen anybody get out of an ice bath without a smirk on their face' — and he's offered $1,000 to prove him wrong. The upright posture isn't cosmetic — it's neurological. Lying in a bathtub during cold exposure sends conflicting signals: the body enters fight-or-flight but is told to rest. Ice Barrel's upright design mirrors how the human body actually responds to cold stress in nature, producing a more complete physiological response. You're not training for cold — you're retraining your nervous system. Wyatt noticed that after months of cold therapy, his palms stopped sweating during high-stakes corporate negotiations and his resting heart rate during stress dropped. The cold isn't the point; the recalibrated default stress response is. Start with the hose. Tap water from a garden hose runs at 55-60°F — cold enough to activate all the primary benefits. Beginners don't need ice. Start there, work toward 50-55°F, and only go into the 40s when you're confident. Shivering is the body's signal to get out. The future of cold therapy is contrast. Hot/cold alternation — sauna then cold plunge, repeated — produces norepinephrine and euphoric endorphin release that standalone cold or heat cannot. Ice Barrel's partnership with Sunlighten (infrared sauna) positions it at the center of this shift. Comfort is the enemy, and hot water is new. Even the wealthiest person 1,000 years ago struggled to get hot water. The modern convenience of hot-on-demand is an evolutionary novelty, and Wyatt cites research showing that people who believe stress is good for them live substantially longer than those who don't. ------ Want more of The Ancient Health Podcast?

Dean Hall was sick, grieving, and without hope — until he made a decision that changed everything: find something worth living for. In this powerful encore release from the Biological Blueprint, Dean joins Freddie to explore the terrain that no lab test can measure — purpose, spirit, and the courage to take just one more step. Drawing on Viktor Frankl's observations from Auschwitz, Dean reveals why it wasn't the strongest or the smartest who survived the unsurvivable — it was those most passionately tied to a purpose larger than themselves. He walks through his three pillars for navigating a dark night of the soul: releasing the need for perfection, trusting the body's innate ability to heal what it created, and the radical simplicity of asking yourself only one question — what is the next step? Whether you're 180 miles into an open water swim or sitting with a diagnosis that just changed your life, Dean's answer is always the same: you already know. The second half of this conversation goes into territory rarely explored in health and wellness — transgenerational trauma, family systems therapy, and the epigenetic wounds passed silently from generation to generation. Dean shares how he's only recently begun mapping his own ancestral lineage, from a 14-year-old great grandmother who crossed the ocean alone from Sweden to fishermen and brawlers from Northern England — and how forest bathing and cold water immersion have become his most powerful tools for releasing what isn't his to carry. He also shares a profoundly simple breathwork and prayer practice he has used with thousands of clients over 20 years — a tool he calls centering down — that uses the brain's hardwired need to answer every question it's asked to surface your deepest purpose. One hundred percent of people who stick with it through the frustration, he says, find their answer. This one is worth a second listen. Episode Highlights [02:13] – Dean shares the world-record swims that reshaped his life after cancer [06:36] – How mindfulness and purpose helped him endure extreme physical suffering [10:20] – The sudden brain cancer diagnosis that took his wife's life in just 52 days [14:20] – Losing his identity after grief and feeling completely disconnected from himself [20:52] – Discovering leukemia during a routine knee surgery workup [24:30] – Viktor Frankl's work on meaning becomes a turning point in Dean's recovery [31:00] – Why swimming the Willamette River became a mission bigger than himself [41:22] – Attempting the 187-mile swim while living with active leukemia and lymphoma [46:47] – How cold water immersion unexpectedly changed his mental and physical health [51:20] – The shocking blood test that showed his leukemia had disappeared [58:14] – Forest bathing, natural killer cells, and the role of nature in healing [01:03:20] – How grief finally began leaving his body in the forest [01:07:20] – Dean's philosophy of “BioWild Psychology” and reconnecting with nature [01:15:22] – Why people facing illness must become active participants in their healing Links & Resources: Dean's Website: https://www.thewildcureway.com/ “The Wild Cure” book: https://www.thewildcureway.com/books Upgrade Your Health The Biological Blueprint Course: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprint Earn 200 in BitCoin + Change your health BEAM Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN LightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794 Code: beautifullybroken Silver Biotics Wound Healing Gel: https://bit.ly/3JnxyDD 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN StemRegen: https://www.stemregen.co/products/stemregen?_ef_transaction_id=&oid=1&affid=52 Code: beautifullybroken CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/freddie.kimmelYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@beautifullybrokenworld Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Questions? Comments? We love feedback! Email us at info@baishavaad.org Rav Aryeh FinkelQuestion: I built an extension on my house and made a new laundry room. My wife put the first load of laundry into the new washing machine and set the machine on the cold cycle. When she opened it at the end of the cycle, she realized that the plumber had mixed up the hot and cold water pipes, which had caused hot water to come out of the pipe that should have been cold water. This ruined all of the clothing in the wash. Is the plumber liable for this damage?Answer: First of all, the plumber should not get paid for the job.Regarding whether or not he should be liable to pay for the ruined clothing, we would have to find a category of mazik to place him under.The Rishonim say that garmi only applies if the damage occurs at the time of the damager's actions. In this case, the plumber made his mistake well before the woman did the laundry; therefore, he cannot be held liable because of garmi.He also is definitely not odom hamazik as he did not do the damage directly.What he did could perhaps be classified as bor because when he mixed up the pipes he is akin to someone who dug a pit that can cause damage; however, bor is potur on keilim, so the plumber could not be held liable for damages to clothing because of bor.The most likely chiyuv would be aish. If someone places an object in a place where it is likely to be moved by an outside force and cause damage, he can be held liable for aish. The problem is that one is only liable for aish if the object he placed is the thing that ends up causing the damage. In this instance, the damage was actually done by the water. The plumber did not put the water into the machine. He merely installed the pipes in a way that caused the water to be diverted the wrong way.Thus, there doesn't seem to be a way to hold him accountable.I would add that when we said that the plumber cannot be held liable with the rule of garmi, this was presuming that he was not a professional. If the homeowner had hired a professional plumber, perhaps the man could be held liable. The Gemara says that if a professional gives bad advice which leads to a loss of money, that professional can be held liable through the rule of garmi. This would mean that if a professional plumber said that the pipes were hooked up correctly when they really were not, he could be held liable for garmi.
Mo Egger from ESPN Radio in Cincinnati joined the show. Mo saw every snap from Brendan Sorsby last season covering the Cincinnati Bearcats. Sorsby is likely going to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft after he was busted for gambling last month when he was part of the Indiana Hoosiers roster. Mo said he's been wondering if he's missing something about Sorsby, since everyone is labeling him early as a future NFL star. Mo said the performances were so uneven and up & down from Sorsby in 2025 that he finds it hard to believe that he will be a future Top 10 caliber player. Mo broke down some of the shaky games from Sorsby last season while adding that he doesn't expect the QB to play in college ever again. Mo said he truly doesn't understand what everyone is falling in love with when they watch Sorsby play. The guys asked Mo about the tricky situation Sorsby is in after allegedly wagering on college football as a college football player, which is a big no-no.
Ice swimming is a strange outpost on the edge of our sport. It's real, growing, and intense, but still outside the formal World Aquatics structure. In this GMM takeover of the SwimSwam Podcast, we sit down with Chris Ballard, author of THE PLUNGE: Maverick Swimmers, an Unlikely Quest, and the Transformative Power of Cold Water. The book drops June 9th from Simon & Schuster.
