Podcasts about complain

On today's episode, Inky Johnson shares a powerful story about shifting your perspective, trading complaining for appreciation, and getting back to passion and purpose instead of seeking out validation for our egos. This episode is a great opportunity to consider what you're complaining about. What are you willing to do to change it? Because if you're not interested in changing it, then it may be time to let it go.Source: Inky Johnson x iDrive Logistics “Commit To The Process”Want ad-free episodes?

With the Cardinals holding some meetings outdoors to slow the Covid problems, Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Felipe Corral Jr. slip inside the studio to discuss a 6-0 team that for some reason has yet to capture the pundits' collective confidence. There is plenty to discuss, like the impressive win in Cleveland despite the absence of Kliff Kingsbury, among others; how Sports Illustrated “minority reported” the Cards in their rankings; how J.J. Watt and DeAndre Hopkins may view their first game against the Texans since leaving Houston; Kyler's MVP level and a defense that may be even better than some stats show.

As we approach November, when we'll be filming my 2nd feature film, I've been getting ahead of work. This way, things are done and no one has to pick up the slack for me. I've also been finalizing freelance work for the time being. To ensure that, it's a coordinated effort to communicate with them and let them know of deadlines otherwise it'll be a month before I can resume. The other prep work I've been doing is for the movie. This past week we had final rehearsals. Plus we had to alter the schedule and a method for some graphics. The latter two being things that I knew I had to do but felt like somewhat of a gut punch. But, it was easier to just roll up my sleeves and get to work than to complain about it. And sure enough, by embracing and doing both things, the result is that much better. This is an idea I explore, not only exemplified in this way, but also in other areas of my life. There's lots of nuggets in there for you to utilize, so enjoy. Thanks for tuning in.

Recently, streaming platform Netflix came under a firestorm of criticism from the LGBTQ+ community both outside the company and internally, with transgender Netflix staff planning a walkout on 20th October. All this was caused by the launch of Dave Chapelle's final standup comedy special on their platform, which contained “transphobic” content, and the CEO's defense of the material in spite of the backlash. Why is everyone closely watching this controversy, and why would it matter to someone in Singapore? Elsewhere, the Hooters franchise unveiled a new uniform for their servers that ruffled feathers, so much so that they had to backtrack on the implementation of these uniforms.   Find us here!

"Please... be quiet!" That's the desperate plea that becomes a constant refrain for 13-year-old Benny Oh, the protagonist of Ruth Ozeki's new novel, "The Book of Form and Emptiness." After his beloved father dies, Benny starts literally to hear "things" - from the old lettuce that sighs from the refrigerator to the stapler that yaks away unbidden. Benny comes to find solace in a library and discovers "the Book" that will narrate his story. We talk to Ozeki about the novel and the Zen philosophy that informs it.

Dissatisfied ChristiansAre you a Christian who is frustrated with the Church? If you are, you're not alone. More and more Christians are frustrated with the Church than ever.I recently had a conversation with a passionate follower of Jesus, evidenced by his many Christian tattoos. He even had some in biblical Hebrew, but I couldn't read it. I took Hebrew in Seminary, but that was a long time ago and I got a C.I asked him if he was a Christian and what church he went to. He didn't know I was a pastor, so that permitted him to be honest with me.He averted his eyes and shook his head and said, "Man, I'm done with the Church."I felt his frustration and his disappointment. He didn't have to say anything else. I knew what he was feeling.An uncomfortable prolonged beat of silence stretched out between us as searched for something encouraging to say. I'm usually not at a loss for words, but nothing wise and pithy came to me. When he finally reestablished eye contact with me, all I could do is nod my head in agreement and say, "Man, I know what you mean."I used to think that dissatisfaction with the Church was a sign of an individual's spiritual immaturity or religious consumerism. But not anymore. I'm realizing that the angsty dissatisfaction and frustration that many Christians (especially among Gen Y and Gen Z) feel about the Church is becoming normative.But we have to ask, "Is this a good thing?"Is it okay for a Christian to be dissatisfied and frustrated with the Church?Yes, of course, it's okay.Do you know how I know it's okay to be frustrated with the Church? The Head of the Church, our Lord Jesus Christ himself gets frustrated with the Church.In Revelations 2-3, Jesus speaks to the Seven Churches in Asia Minor. For 6 out of 7 of those churches, Jesus has harsh words of rebuke and correction for them. In essence, he says, "I'm not happy with you. If you don't change your ways, I'm going to shut you down."Currently today, I believe that the level of our dissatisfaction with the state of the Church is a huge problem. But the problem isn't that we are too dissatisfied with the Church. I believe that the real problem is that we are not dissatisfied enough.We have become comfortable with how things are. We are happy and content with the mess that the Church is in. Most Christians are just fine with the way things are in the Church even though we have drifted away from God's plan and purpose for us.If you're not disappointed with the Church, just look at what we've become known for. Ask anyone outside the Church what they think of us. What will they say?They will say that we are political, selfish, unloving, and care only about ourselves. They will say we are tribal, judgmental, hypocritical, power-hungry, and driven by greed. They will say we are people who are angry, combative, defensive, and who react out of fear. That we are known more for our passionate fight for our politics and culture war issues, and not the Gospel.This is not how it's supposed to be. We used to be known for our love, unity, and generosity. Reaching out to our neighbors. Caring for the needy. Advocating for the powerless. Welcoming the stranger. Loving our enemies, enduring persecution, and praying for those who persecute us.We were bold proclaimers of the saving message of the Gospel of Jesus. We were once salt and light. A city on a hill to guide the way for a lost and dying world. But now our salt has lost its saltiness.It saddens me that the Church today has become more associated with politics and conspiracy theories than the Gospel of Jesus. It's no wonder that we are becoming less and less relevant to the world God has called us to reach.Jesus asked, "If salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?"More Dissatisfaction, Not LessHow are we going to fix the mess we're in? You may not like my answer.I believe that, if we're going to dig ourselves out of this mess, we need faithful Christians to become more dissatisfied with the Church, not less.I want you to be bothered at how far we've fallen. I want you to be frustrated and grieve and how things are. I want you to get mad at what the Church has become.I see far too many Christians focusing on what's wrong with the world. They get mad and complain about the world, but they ignore what's wrong with us. I want us to take that passion and energy as we look at ourselves and how we need to change.I believe that no biblical, faithful Christian should be satisfied with the state of the Church today. I want to encourage you to be more dissatisfied with the Church, not less. But I want to make sure that your dissatisfaction is productive and not destruction.Two Kinds of DissatisfactionThere are two kinds of dissatisfaction. They may look the same at first glance, but that can't be more different. Sometimes it's hard to tell them apart, but one is good and healthy and the other is bad and destructive.The first type of dissatisfaction is "Productive Dissatisfaction." This is when you say, "Wow, this place is a mess. Let's tear it down so we can fix it and make it better."Imagine the Church is like an old house that you inherit from your grandparents. It's old and smells funny. It has a different ugly mismatched wallpaper in every room. There's termite damage, mold in the walls, faulty electrical wiring, and poisonous lead paint. But at least the asbestos glue is keeping the linoleum in place.Even so, the house has good bones with great potential. You've watched Chip and Joanna Gaines do more with less. So you say, "We got to tear out all that stuff so we can fix it and make it better." That's productive dissatisfaction.The second type of dissatisfaction is "Destructive Dissatisfaction." This is when you see the mess and say, "Let's tear it down and light it on fire!"Which type of dissatisfaction do you have? Productive or destructive? What do you have in your hands? Do you have a broom or a molotov cocktail?Signs of Productive DissatisfactionTo make things better, we need more Christians who are filled with healthy productive dissatisfaction. There's a lot of work to do. If you're ready to put down that molotov cocktail and pick up a broom, I have three suggestions for you.1) Make sure your expectations for the Church are biblical and healthy.Disappoint comes from having unmet expectations. You need to make sure that the expectations you have for the Church come from the Bible. Make sure that your expectations are not selfish, immature, or politically motivated. This isn't a matter of personal preference or opinion. You should expect the Church to be what the Bible says it should be.In Acts 2:40-42, the Bible describes the beautiful beginnings of the Church. It describes a loving community of people from diverse backgrounds who were radically changed by God. They were united by their love for each other and commitment to God's mission.They formed a unique community of trust, vulnerability, love, and support. Former enemies and political rivals became brothers and sisters in God's adopted family. They met together daily in the public square and welcomed each other into their homes. As my father-in-law would say, they gave each other "refrigerator rights."They gathered to study the teachings of Jesus. They ate and shared the bread and wine in remembrance of Jesus' death. They worshiped and praised God together. They joyfully sacrificed for each other. The Bible said they sold their possessions and gave the proceeds to anyone who had a need.And God blessed them. He presence with them in a mighty way. God was at work and they enjoyed favor with all the people. God used this newly formed adopted spiritual family to radically transform their community, and eventually the entire world.We today, the Church, are the direct spiritual descendants of that original family of faith. The bad news is that we have fallen so far from that description that it's hard to believe we have any connection with them at all.If you read the Bible and are frustrated with how short we have fallen from God's plan and design for us, then you're in good company. I share your frustration. I also believe that how things are in the Church today is not how Jesus intended it to be.The first step in reforming the Church is to make sure your expectations are biblical and healthy.2) Make sure your dissatisfaction is motivated by love and concern for the Church.Don't be a hater or a troll. Don't just stand outside and be a critic. Critics don't love what they are criticizing.I'm not saying that you can't say anything critical or challenging about the Church. Just make sure it's coming from a place of love and concern, and not from a critical heart.One of the New Testament Church's biggest critics was the Apostle Paul himself. He was hugely frustrated with the Church at different times. Many of his epistles were written out of frustration at how the Church was missing the mark.The most scathing letter Paul ever wrote was his first epistle to the Church in the city of Corinth. We call it 1 Corinthians. The Church in Corinth had lost its way. It fell into moral compromise and fell into false doctrine. Paul doesn't pull any punches and speaks to them very harshly. But it worked. They receive Paul's instructions and start to turn the church around.A little while later, Paul writes a follow-up letter (we call it 2 Corinthians). In this second letter, Paul softens his tone and apologizes for being so harsh with them earlier.He writes:For I wrote you out of great distress and anguish of heart and with many tears, not to grieve you but to let you know the depth of my love for you. (2 Corinthians 2:4)Paul was frustrated and dissatisfied with the Church at Corinth. He let his frustrations be known loudly and publicly. But, please notice, that his dissatisfaction was motivation out of his love, care, and concern for the Church. He said those harsh words out of "great distress and anguish of heart." Paul cried "many tears" as an expression of the depth of his love for them.The source of Paul's frustration is an example to us. His frustration was motivated by love.When you see the Church going astray, it's okay to be frustrated. As long as it's motivated from a place of love, care, and concern, go ahead and let your frustrations show. Just don't be a hater, a troll, or a critic. Critics don't what they are criticizing.Saint Augustine is a good example of this. During the 4th Century, during a time when the Church was going astray by merging power and identity with the Roman Empire, Saint Augustine valiantly lead a faithful remnant.Faithful Christians were appalled at the level of compromise and corruption in the Church in that era. They were justifiably dissatisfied and frustrated. Many thought that the Church was irredeemable.They complained, "The Church has become a whore! She has become a whore to the Roman Empire!"They wanted to tear down the whole thing and set it on fire. But not Saint Augustine. While he couldn't deny that the Church was becoming more and more corrupted with power and association with the political might of the Roman Empire, he argued for a more productive way forward.Saint Augustine is said to have replied, "The Church may be a whore, but she is my mother."Augustine couldn't deny that the Church was unhealthy and becoming more and more corrupt. But he loved the Church. He couldn't turn his back on her. He couldn't just tear it down and light it on fire.In essence, he said, "I know the Church is a mess, but I love her dearly. Let's figure out how we can fix it, not blow it up."The second step to reforming the Church is to make sure we are motivated by genuine love, care, and concern for the Church.3) Turn your dissatisfaction into a catalyst for change.If you're dissatisfied and frustrated with the Church, don't just complain. Don't just be a critic. Critics never change anything. Instead, allow your dissatisfaction to grow in your soul to become a catalyst for change.One of the ingredients necessary for any change is dissatisfaction. Dissatisfaction is the beginning of change. No change can happen unless you are sick and tired of how things are.As I stated earlier, I believe our problem is that we are not dissatisfied enough. Many of us are dissatisfied enough to complain, or maybe even get up and leave. But I see few Christians dissatisfied enough to make changes.This is how revolutions and reformations are born. They are birthed in the hearts of dissatisfied people who have had enough of the way things are that they finally decide to do something about it.This is how the Civil Rights Movement started. Rosa Parks was sick and tired of being treated as a second-class citizen, so she refused to go to the back of the bus. This is how the Protestant Reformation got started. Martin Luther was sick and tired of all the ways that the Church was becoming unfaithful and corrupt. He wrote a manifesto and detail 95 changes that the Church needed to make and he nailed his lengthy document to the front door of the largest church in town. That manifesto is known as the 95 Thesis became the spark that lit the fire that became the Protestant Reformation.Don't just be a complainer. Become a reformer. Allow your dissatisfaction to become a catalyst for change. Don't just talk about it. Be about it.This reminds me of the story of Nehemiah. He's one of my favorite people in the Bible. Nehemiah was the royal servant to the most powerful man in the world, the King of Babylon. He had a cushy job in the royal palace.Everything was great for Nehemiah. That is until he got a report about the dilapidated conditions of Jerusalem, God's Holy City. When he found out that Jerusalem was in ruins, its walls broken down and gates burned with fire, the Bible said he broke down and wept for days.This lead to a period of fasting, mourning, and prayer. Eventually, his dissatisfaction grew to the point that it was unbearable for him to do nothing about it. That's when he started making a plan to restore Jerusalem.From hundreds of miles away, Nehemiah architected a detailed plan on how he would rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. He calculated how much it would cost, how much lumber and supplies he would need. He thought through the process of getting permits. He decided that he needed security and a line of credit. Included in his plan was an estimate of how long this building project would take.When Nehemiah had the opportunity, he asked the King of Babylon for permission to leave his cushy job in the palace to go and rebuild Jerusalem. When the king asked him what this rebuilding project entailed, Nehemiah, show him the detailed plan he was working on.Nehemiah said, "King, this is how much this project is going to cost. Here is the materials list. This is how many men I'll need to take with me. And this is how long it's going to take. Can I go?"Impressed with Nehemiah's thorough plan, the king blessed Nehemiah's plan and even paid for the whole rebuilding project. When Nehemiah finally arrived in Jerusalem, he gathered up all the people living in the ruined city.He said to them:"You see the trouble we are in: Jerusalem lies in ruins, and its gates have been burned with fire. Come, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, and we will no longer be in disgrace." (Nehemiah 2:17)How did the people respond?They replied, "Let us start rebuilding." So they began this good work.The restoration of Jerusalem started as a seed of sadness and dissatisfaction in Nehemiah's heart. It grew to become a catalyst to change. When the people saw Nehemiah's passion for change, it rubbed off on them. And they go to work.Three OptionsThings are bad right now for the Church. There's no denying it.What are we going to do about it?I think there are three options:Ignore it.Complain about it.Or try to fix it.If we're going to fix this mess, we first need passionate, committed Jesus-followers who are filled with dissatisfaction. But we need to make sure that our dissatisfaction is productive, and not destructive. We need a dissatisfaction that comes from biblical and healthy expectations for the Church. We need to make sure that our dissatisfaction is motivated by love and concern for the Church. And we need people who are committed enough to do more than complain but will roll up their sleeves and get to work.Things may be bad right now. You may be dissatisfied with how things are. The Church is a mess right now, so let's pick up a broom and get to work. We need you.

The SOURCE OF Complaining

Take a listen and you might hear a lot of verbal noise. People are complaining. There's a lot of frustration out there, for sure. But there is a better way than to complain 24/7. First Prez Senior Pastor Dan Chun has some ideas to avoid complaining. And he's got some great stories to support his ideas.

The Dangers of Complaining

Please leave a rating or a review. Download the pdf "Top 5 Tools Every Spousal Caregiver Must Have" now. Show Notes: Episode 79 "How Not to Hate Caregiving" You might have woken up today and thought how crappy it is to have to be a caregiver. It could be a difficult week, month, or year for you. I know how it feels. I get having the feeling that caregiving is suffocating you. If you feel like you can't breathe, like you can't do this anymore, that caregiving has ruined your life or that you're getting really close to feeling that way…then maybe we should talk about trying to approach things a little differently.  Let's talk about how not to hate caregiving. Now I'm not an overly positive person. I have met people who have survived cancer and they are full of gratitude for just being able to wake up each day. You've met them… the people that when you want to talk about how much life sucks you know they'll respond with everything you should be happy about right now. There's nothing wrong with seeing the world this way… I'm just not that person. If you are, I'd love for you to send me an email and let me know what keeps you going with that mindset. In fact, if any of you want to send me an email I'd love to hear from you. If you're signed up for the newsletter all you have to do is hit reply and I'll get it.    Now even though I'm not a rose-colored glasses type of person I do try to find the good out of a situation and I work hard at holding on to the ability to enjoy my life as much as possible. That isn't a gift for me it's a skill that I am continually refining. I have to work at this because oftentimes the best things to do in life are the hardest. I'm sarcastic by nature. I'm quick to respond especially in difficult situations. I'm always reading between the lines and I'm quick to create boundaries.  So when I say that caregiving can fuel you. When I tell you that it is possible to feel good inside when you're a caregiver I am not telling you that because I feel that being a caregiver is easy. I am telling you because caregiving is easily one of the hardest things I will have to do long-term and I refuse to hate my life while I do it. I believe you can do the same.  It isn't easy to figure out how to enjoy life when you first become a caregiver. I didn't gleefully jump into being a spousal caregiver when my husband was diagnosed with cancer. My beginning experiences with caregiving were horrible. I quickly started to experience caregiver burnout and I was oftentimes miserable but there were some moments of clarity. If you listened to last week's episode you know I learned a valuable lesson in the hospital with my husband and I went through that first year having many little aha moments but I was just too exhausted to put them all together to see the big picture.  A lot of us find ourselves struggling in the beginning. We work hard to get a handle on things and right when we think we know what we're doing something changes and we have to start all over again. It's very easy to not even notice how life feels, in general, when you are in this first phase because you don't have a chance to take a moment to step back. But when you do have that quiet moment it can really bring you down. Do you remember when you had just enough quiet time that something inside you made you look back on the past year or years of caregiving and you realized that you haven't been happy in a while? Or maybe right now is that moment. Then you just didn't have the energy to know what to do with that information and you went back to the way things have been. You continued to be unhappy but it was worse because you now knew you were unhappy. Before you didn't realize it and it wasn't a thing you thought about but after that moment that fact was always there.  Knowing you aren't happy with your life and being able to make changes are two different things. First, you have to know you aren't happy with the way things are before you can become open to making a change. Making a change has to then become important enough for you to do it. I understand how hard it is to make changes in your life. I see it every time I work with a caregiver. There's too much going on for you to make a change and you don't have an idea of what that change would even be or how to address it if you did.  We all become family caregivers for a specific reason. You could have decided on it because there was no question in your mind that you would care for your spouse, child, or loved one. Maybe there was no question in the minds of the people around you that you would be the one to do it and so you did possibly out of obligation. Or it's possible that you are somewhere in between those two.  So let's move forward on the assumption that you are a caregiver because, at least in the beginning, you at the very least, cared for this person. I know that over time caregiving goes from being something you are doing as a response or reaction to this big pile of crap that was thrown into your lap. However, over time, it turns into things you do to then things you HAVE to do to things you HATE doing. Right? The way we look at caregiving shifts over time and it very easily can become something that we dislike doing. It's the thing that keeps us from living the lives we wanted to live. It breaks the relationship that you had with that person before they needed you to care for them. It makes you angry. So now, going forward, everything feels difficult.  Now think of all of that anger, frustration, and overwhelm and then think of the last time you felt good about taking care of that person. How long ago was that? You see caring for someone benefits them in every way. If we see our caregiving as only benefitting the person on the receiving end then we're really missing out on an opportunity to find a way to enjoy life as a caregiver.  That might be difficult to hear. You do so much for this person. You have given up so much of your life for them and you don't feel like they appreciate it and you definitely don't get the recognition you feel you should from the people in your world. So the last thing you want to do is find a way to be happy about making them their 500th dinner! I know that anger and I can tell you that the alternative feels much better.  We have no control over how the person we care for accepts and acknowledges the things we do for them. We can't control if other people think being a caregiver is important. What we can control is how we view caregiving. The reasons why we do things are under our control. Changing your perspective could be the key to making an important change in your life especially if you have grown to dislike parts or all of caregiving.  Let's get to it… There are studies that show that helping another person can help you. (and I'll add the links to them in the show notes for this episode on the website) Researchers have found that when someone does something for another person to help them it makes them feel good. There are positive effects to a person's mind and body when they help. It can give that person a sense of purpose and satisfaction and people report that they feel happier. The key to this is - their perspective.  If you wash your loved one's clothes or help them take a bath you can do it with the mindset of a person who has to or a person who does it to help them. It's not about wanting to do it exactly. It's about wanting to help them. The focus is on what you can do to help them. Now if you listened to Episode 73 You know there are moments when you have to set boundaries around the things you do for a person who is able to do them for themselves. We aren't talking about those things. We are talking about the things you really need to do or the things you chose to do because it's helpful even though they could do it for themselves. Can you do your caregiving tasks without being annoyed about doing them? Is it possible for you to shift your perspective so you can see things that you do a different way? Can you do these things focused on how you are helping that person?  Now I'm not asking you to be that rose-colored glasses type of person I mentioned in the beginning. Believe me, I can be in the middle of making my husband's breakfast happy that I can because he just came home from surgery and have something happen that pisses me off. Like having a raw egg drop through that crack in between the counter and stove and spends 15 minutes cursing at it while I figure out how to clean it up if I can't reach it. Then I finish the breakfast and, with a happy heart, take it to him. I'm not saying not to have emotions.  What I'm suggesting is for you to try to take something that really puts you in a bad mood or angry that you have to do it and find a way to see the good you are doing for that person. For example, changing diapers for any human is not a fun task. But have you noticed the different perspective between a parent changing a babies' diaper and that of a person who needs to change an adult one? Both humans need a diaper change. Soiling the diaper is a basic human function. Let's assume they both can't change the diaper on their own. Now a parent will change the diaper. Complain maybe about how much of a crap show it was and then move on to the next thing. Most times it doesn't make them bitter. They do it because it's a task they have to do and most times they interact with the child in a positive way while doing it. So if you had to change your loved one's adult diaper, and maybe you already do, can you do that out of love the same way? I'm not asking you to take time to address the fact that this is not the role you agreed to when you came into this world or into this relationship with the person you care for. I'm not asking you to acknowledge the emotional reasons why it is so hard to do it. I'm asking if it is possible or would it be possible for you to do it out of the love you have for that person despite the fact that it is difficult for you to do? Changing your perspective doesn't change that something can be difficult for you to do.   Can you change your mind about how you think of the things you do as a caregiver? Can you be open to this one way that has the potential to allow you to enjoy your life a little bit more even though you do things as a caregiver that you don't necessarily like to do?  Now don't go too far over to the other side either. I'm not asking you to embrace being a martyr. That actually will make things worse because in that situation you do things out of obligation or guilt and in the process you sacrifice your well-being. You also aren't doing things so that other people will think highly of you. This is just you and your mind trying to find a positive way to go forward as a caregiver so you can enjoy living it.   Being open to this mental shift can begin to help you see that human as a person you love. We so often fall into the doing of caregiving that we lose sight of the human we care for. It also creates the possibility of making your connection with this person stronger. You might find you enjoy being around them more or have more to talk about.  As you begin seeing caregiving as a way you can help the person you love, you are also enhancing your life. You are showing up for not only them but for you as well.  So try it… take one thing you do as a caregiver that really annoys you. Now think of how you doing that one thing helps the other person. Imagine how you would feel if you were that person and not able to handle doing that one thing. Now imagine in your head that you do that task but out of love. Not obligation. Not because that's what you've always had to do. Just because you love them and want to help them. Notice how it makes you feel to imagine doing it this way. If it warms your heart even just a little bit, then practice doing that one thing with that frame of mind. If you don't then let that task go and go through the same process with something that annoys you less. You might have to pick something that is hardly troublesome and work your way up.  I promise you that as difficult as this might be you will benefit so much from making this shift in how you look at caregiving. Finding an alternative to the anger, frustration, and overwhelm is the best way to care for yourself as well. It's also a good way to show up every day as the best caregiver you can be. Let me know how that works out for you.

Big O says it was an ugly win but why complain.

This time the game really was over by halftime. Spencer Rattler was great, the defense was dominant, the week leading up to Western Carolina was brutal in practices. OU was so dominant on defense it was like one big nameless, faceless group. Danny Stutsman led the team in tackles. So what do you take out of a dominant performance against an overmatched opponent? All you can do is just keep moving forward and thank the lucky stars you aren't Texas or Iowa State this week. And you seek out that opponent that will help you find your old friend: adversity. And Texas? Seriously? Wow! Also the sun rises in the east and Iowa always beats Iowa State early in the season. Carey also started drinking a big glass of whiskey during this podcast and was probably a bit drunk at the end.

Today Pastor Mark continues our study in Philippians in chapter 2. Today we are challenged to do everything without grumbling and arguing (or complaining) to the end of becoming blameless and pure by holding firmly to the word of life. Consider how we are to be in contrast to culture as stars shine in the dark sky.

Download Numbers 15:22-18 We are in The World stream reading from God's Word Translation. 7streamsmethod.com | @7StreamsMethod | @serenatravis | #7Streams | Donate Commentary by Dr. Drake Travis 15:22ff - when unintentional sins are committed there is still guilt to deal with. That is a rule of the world that applies. Many people die and always have for ignorance of physics. A child cannot protest about a burnt hand because they were not aware that fire burned skin. It's all unfortunate that thousands of traffic tickets get written daily because someone is driving in a different-than-home city and doesn't know the local rules. This doesn't let them off. Politicians may claim that they should be allowed to slide because they didn't violate anything intentionally.  No one else gets to make this fallacious claim. -the assertion of the Sabbath rule may appear harsh but it had to be reiterated. Whole societies become ill for working 7-days a week. It isn't healthy and God will not permit it. -the tassel concept may seem a cute thing but God just wanted them to remember ... it worked. 16 - The issue here is rebellion. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft and must be obliterated. It should never be allowed. They are complaining ultimately in a way that would not be happening if they had already proceeded into the Promised Land like God had already invited/urged/ordered them to go, but they rebelled there and whined and wouldn't go in. God must have been saying "what do you jokers want from me?" They had to go or the whole community would have been corrupted and the children permanently warped beyond spiritual recovery. So God did some cleansing that day.  This purging of rebellion preserved a nation. 17 -  The budding and producing staff of Aaron's is God reminding them again to listen to Moses and Aaron.  God spoke to Moses and Aaron would speak for Moses. This was instituted a while back and God did not changed His mind. This was God telling them for the how-manyTH time just follow, obey and don't complain.  God is this way and He made us this way. What do you feel like doing about the complainers in your neighborhood? at your school? in your family? at your job?  Yeah, right, you'd like to hose them off and/or throw them outside. Complain blurs and blunts even blocks the progress of anything.  So let's all stop the complaining and let God take us to where we are meant to be spiritually and in every other way. 18 - the gravity and tenants of the priestly service are told. This is a serious matter. If faith is not taken seriously and taken so to the core, then eventually (and sooner than some may think) nothing else is taken seriously. We see the crumbling of societies right before our eyes today of lands that took their Christendom much more seriously than they do now. They are paying the consequences for it. And as for the contributions - they needed to be handled very responsibly. Percentages and proportions were to be strictly followed. They are accounting for God; for God's sake.  They can't be acting like the governments of the world that are habitually wasting trillions and trillions.

We just wanted to take an episode to complain about shit. Not that we don't do it every episode.
