Week 1 – Conceived in the Dark Apprentice: Nicodemus Text: John 3:1–8 Nicodemus comes at night. Curious. Confused. Reputable but searching. Apprenticeship begins in questions, not certainty. New birth cannot be mastered. Following Jesus means entering mystery. Practice: Ten minutes of silence each night. Let questions surface.
Today is day 53 and we are in the section on the Second Article of the Apostles' Creed on Jesus Christ the Son of God. Today we are on the sixth line: “He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of The Virgin Mary” and studying question 53. 53. What does it mean that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit? Jesus was conceived not through a human father but by the Holy Spirit coming upon the Virgin Mary in power. (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:18–20; Luke 1:26–38) We will conclude today with The Collect for Saint Mary the Virgin found on page 631 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

Sean is best known as the founder and creative force behind The Waldorf Project, an ongoing experimental art platform launched in 2012 that has gained international recognition for pushing the limits of immersive and participatory experience.Through The Waldorf Project, Sean has conceived and directed large-scale, radical performance environments often described as “empathy engineering” experiments. These works dissolve the boundary between audience and performer, combining ritual, architecture, sound, choreography, and psychological framing to explore connection, vulnerability, and collective consciousness. The project has been realised worldwide, involving over 5,000 participants in Thailand and a high-altitude performance for 400 people aboard a Lufthansa flight, an unprecedented context for live immersive art.As a natural continuation of The Waldorf Project, Sean expanded his practice into virtual reality with Virtual Serenity, translating his principles of collective experience into a large-scale XR environment. Conceived as one of the most ambitious location-based VR empathy experiments to date, Virtual Serenity enabled up to 288 participants to share a synchronized virtual journey, extending Sean's exploration of presence, emotional resonance, and shared human states into the digital realm.Across physical and virtual realms, Sean's career is defined by his ability to operate at extreme scales, lead interdisciplinary teams, and consistently redefine what immersive art can be, positioning him as a key voice in the future of experiential and human-centric art practices.AffiliatesThese are products we personally use and recommend.* Framer: build websites, the easy way* Rize: magically track everything you do* Color AI: generate meaningful color palettes* Sublime: turn ideas into worlds of inspirationSean on LinkedIn | Waldorf Project| Waldorf Project on Instagram This is a public episode.

At its core is a clear mission: to change perceptions of blindness, to invite visitors to act in their own ways to make the world more welcoming, and to serve as a global model for inclusivity.If you enjoy this episode, visit arcat.com/podcast for more.If you're a frequent listener of Detailed, you might enjoy similar content at Gābl Media.Mentioned in this episode:Social Channel Pre-rollPromotes the YouTube channel, ARACTemy, and social handle.
Simon and Garfunkel - Bookends (Columbia) Released on April 3, 1968,Bookends stands as one of the most concise yet thematically ambitious albums of the 1960s. The album blends folk, pop, and studio experimentation into a unified meditation on aging, memory, and identity. Conceived partly as a song cycle, Side One traces the arc of life—from youthful searching in “America” to mortality in “Old Friends”—framed by the delicate “Bookends Theme.” Inspired by the album-as-art statement approach of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, the record features layered production shaped by engineer Roy Halee. Side Two balances introspection with radio-ready immediacy, including the cultural landmark “Mrs. Robinson,” written for the film The Graduate. Though running under 30 minutes, the album feels expansive in scope, thanks to its orchestration, field recordings, and emotional pacing. Bookends became the duo's first No. 1 album and helped secure their full artistic control for the even more ambitious Bridge Over Troubled Water. More than a collection of hits, it remains a poignant reflection on time's passage and the fragile beauty of human connection.(S5-Ep7)
Pryce Seymour opens up about growing up in chaos, being conceived in jail, surviving a violent and unstable childhood, and finding purpose in the United States Marine Corps. From prison visits as a kid… to boot camp prank wars… to brutal infantry training… to nearly dying in a high‑speed rollover accident… this story doesn't let up.Pryce was later selected to be followed by Netflix for a Marine Corps documentary — but what you didn't see on screen is even crazier. The drinking, the injuries, the culture shock, the fights, the deployments, and the mental toll of living life at full throttle.This Urban Valor episode goes deep into Marine infantry life, the reality of training and deployment, the brotherhood, and the mindset that forms when you're pushed past what most people ever experience.
In this episode, Cherise is joined by Mariam Issoufou, Founder and Principal at Mariam Issoufou Architects with offices in New York, Niamey, Niger, and Zurich, Switzerland. They discuss the Rolex Pavilion in Venice, Italy.You can see the project here as you listen along.Conceived as both an architectural gesture and a cultural offering, the 2025 Rolex Pavilion stands as an ode to sustainability, to Venice, and to the city's enduring relationship with the art of making. Two-hundred-year-old timber beams salvaged from Venetian palazzi are reimagined as the pavilion's walls, while locally crafted Venetian glass is formed into circular discs that compose the ceiling above. Glass extends to the ground plane as well, where terrazzo flooring incorporates recycled Murano glass shards as aggregate.If you enjoy this episode, visit arcat.com/podcast for more.If you're a frequent listener of Detailed, you might enjoy similar content at Gābl Media.Mentioned in this episode:Social Channel Pre-rollPromotes the YouTube channel, ARACTemy, and social handle.
Writer, composer, and producer T.J. Armand announces the release of Happy Hour Blues – Volume 2 (Demo Sessions), the latest chapter in his three-volume recording project exploring queer life, immigration, and identity through the lens of New York City nightlife.Happy Hour Blues is a multidisciplinary project anchored by a developing musical that follows Adam, a queer immigrant navigating love, exile, and belonging inside a country-themed gay bar in Hell's Kitchen. Conceived during the isolation and cultural upheaval of the pandemic, the project introduces a vivid ensemble of characters shaped by longing, survival, and chosen family — including the bar's sharp-witted female bartender, a role Armand is developing with Tony Award nominee Mary Bridget Davies in mind, known for her electrifying portrayal of Janis Joplin.With the release of Volume 2, Armand expands the sonic and emotional scope of the project, further defining its Blues Rock, Roots, and Americana direction while deepening the world introduced in Volume 1.A QUEER + IMMIGRANT AMERICANA STORY BORN IN ASTORIAThe Happy Hour Blues project was conceived in Astoria, where Armand wrote during the height of the pandemic. What began as private late-night notes and lyrical sketches evolved into a larger narrative shaped by Armand's interest in blending queer life with country-esque storytelling. The material naturally gravitated toward the raw emotional language of Blues Rock, Roots, and Americana.The companion book, Happy Hour Blues: Lyrics, Notes & Reflections, contains more than fifty lyrics, notes, and reflections that outline the world of Adam and the bar's community. Core themes include: queer life and nightlife culture, immigration and self-reinvention, exile and the search for home, chosen family, New York City as both refuge and pressure cookerThe book is complemented by street photography from Astoria and Manhattan, grounding the project in the visual textures of the city that shaped it.⸻THE RECORDINGS: A THREE-VOLUME SOUNDTRACK TO THE STORYThe recording project unfolds as a three-volume series of demo sessions that chart the evolution of Happy Hour Blues:•Volume 1 introduced the project's musical and lyrical foundation, featuring early demos created with the assistance of AI as part of the development process.•Volume 2, released today, builds on that foundation, expanding the emotional palette and further defining the project's Blues Rock / Roots identity.•Volume 3 will follow in Spring 2026, completing the demo-session trilogy.Together, the albums and book form the first complete expression of the Happy Hour Blues universe — a world that will continue to evolve as the musical develops around Adam's journey.⸻ABOUT T.J. ARMANDT.J. Armand is a Turkish-American writer, composer, and producer based in New York City. A Berklee College of Music scholarship recipient and protégé of Arif Mardin, Armand's two-decade career spans songwriting, global beats, concert production, and theatrical storytelling.He has produced concerts for Chaka Khan and The Manhattan Transfer, and produced albums for The Queen's Six and Tony Award nominee Mary Bridget Davies. Along with his partner Carl H. Paiva, Armand was an investing producer on Broadway productions including Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812 starring Josh Groban and Stephen Sondheim's Merrily We Roll Along.His original work frequently explores queer identity, immigration, and the cultural pulse of New York City — themes that anchor Happy Hour Blues.⸻BOOK & MUSIC AVAILABILITYHappy Hour Blues: Lyrics, Notes & ReflectionsPaperback available now on Amazon.Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G5V6SQ7T?ref_=pe_93986420_774957520&dplnkId=370a7816-ff8f-4a69-a5af-b048c2f2a09d&nodl=1Happy Hour Blues — Volumes 1 & 2 (Demo Sessions)Streaming on Spotify, Apple Music, and all major platforms.

fWotD Episode 3192: Life on Mars? Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Friday, 30 January 2026, is Life on Mars?."Life on Mars?" is a song by the English musician David Bowie, first released on his 1971 album Hunky Dory. Conceived as a parody of Frank Sinatra's "My Way", "Life on Mars?" was recorded on 6 August 1971 at Trident Studios in London, and was co-produced by Bowie and Ken Scott. The track features piano by the keyboardist Rick Wakeman and a string arrangement by the guitarist Mick Ronson. "Life on Mars?" is primarily a glam rock ballad, with elements of cabaret and art rock. The lyrics are about a girl who goes to a cinema to escape reality, and include surreal images that reflect optimism and the effects of Hollywood.In June 1973, at the height of Bowie's fame as Ziggy Stardust, RCA Records issued "Life on Mars?" as a single in the United Kingdom, where it peaked at number three. To promote the single, Mick Rock filmed a video that shows Bowie in make-up and a turquoise suit singing the song against a white backdrop. Bowie frequently performed "Life on Mars?" during his concerts, and the track has appeared on numerous compilation albums.Commentators generally consider "Life on Mars?" to be one of Bowie's finest songs and one of the greatest songs of all time. Critics have praised Bowie's vocal performance and the string arrangement. The song has appeared in films and television programmes, and the British television series Life on Mars was named after it. Artists including Barbra Streisand, and Nine Inch Nails members Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, have recorded cover versions of the song; and following Bowie's death in 2016, "Life on Mars?" was frequently chosen as a tribute to the artist in live performances and cover versions. That year, a "stripped down" version of the song, remixed by Scott, was released, along with a reedited version of the promotional video including an extended outro.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:10 UTC on Friday, 30 January 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Life on Mars? on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Kimberly.
From Adoption Trauma to Root Healing - Saane's Extraordinary JourneyThis episode is absolutely raw and it's one you need to listen to if you're exploring what's really underneath your pain.I sit down with Saane, a physiotherapist turned Root Coaching founder, who was adopted from Sri Lanka as a baby and spent decades not knowing her story. Her journey took her from numbing with drugs and unsafe relationships, to meeting her biological mother, to using plant medicine (ayahuasca) to access the deepest layers of her trauma, to now helping others heal their inner child and access their roots.This is not a light conversation. It's deep, it's real, and it's about understanding that everything that happened before you were even born is living in your nervous system.This episode is for you if:• You've experienced adoption trauma or identity confusion• You're using substances or behaviours to numb overwhelming feelings• You want to understand what plant medicine actually does for healing• You believe trauma needs to be FELT to be healed (not bypassed)• You're interested in inner child work that goes beyond talking therapy• You're ready to go to the root instead of managing symptoms• You want to know what authentic healing actually looks likeIn this episode, we cover:✨ What it means to be adopted and the nervous system imprint that creates✨ How Saane numbed decades of pain with drugs and escaping✨ The moment she decided to search for her biological mother in Sri Lanka✨ What ayahuasca is and why she felt called to use it for healing✨ The difference between plant medicine in ceremony vs. random use✨ How the ego protects us from truth and why plant medicine bypasses that✨ The apology exercise that broke her open (writing apologies from people in her life)✨ Why having someone physically present while you feel is the healing✨ Trauma is created in relationship, so it can only be healed in relationship✨ The difference between feeling it to heal it vs. rapid resolution (bypassing pain)✨ Inner child work and why it needs to be a whole-body experience✨ Authentic movement (not dance) as a way to release emotion through the body✨ What happens when you combine inner child work + plant medicine✨ How she now helps clients through Root Coaching✨ The power of five minutes of silence when your nervous system is restless✨ You can't force healing. You create space and it unfolds✨ The lady who didn't cry for 10 years and what shifted it✨ Why you need a safe person to heal. You can't do this alonePowerful quotes from the episode:
TECH CLUBBERS PODCAST W/ ARMANDO By the mid-2000s, his connection to clubbing and electronic music had already taken shape. What began in Italy gradually expanded across Europe, driven not by allegiance to a specific genre but by a deep commitment to club culture as a shared space of freedom, safety, and collective expression. Formed through countless nights on the dancefloor, his artistic identity is rooted in the physical and emotional impact of music. His sets unfold as immersive journeys built on relentless grooves, driving low-end pressure and hypnotic tension, where rhythm and atmosphere work together to generate moments of collective intensity and release. Rather than following trends, his approach focuses on the function of music within the club: creating continuity, energy, and connection between bodies, space, and sound. This vision has led him to perform across key venues in Milan and clubs throughout Italy, shaping a sound that is direct, dense, and deeply dancefloor-oriented. In 2025, he founded SLATE, a project born from the desire to foster a conscious, inclusive, and community-driven club culture. Conceived as a bridge between local and international scenes, SLATE reflects his ongoing commitment to building meaningful spaces where clubbing is understood as both a cultural and collective experience.

Welcome to another episode of How Did I Get Here? From The Vault! Today, we go back to episode 1268 on April 20, 2023 for a special collaboration with Magnet Classics Podcast. Magnet Classics Podcast host Hobart Rowland and I talk to Cotton Mather songwriter and frontman Robert Harrison about their classic album Kontiki. I hope you enjoy our conversation with Robert about this amazing album. I sure did. Below are my original notes from the show. Hello and welcome to a special How Did I Get Here? and Magnet Classics Podcast collaboration episode where we talk all things Kontiki with Cotton Mather frontman, Robert Harrison! Over SXSW, Magnet Classics Podcast host, Hobart Rowland and I sat down with Cotton Mather's Robert Harrison to talk about their 25 year old classic album, Kontiki, from where the band was when he started writing, to recording it to touring with Oasis in the U.K. in support of it. Listen to Kontiki HERE. Check out Magnet Classics Podcast HERE or wherever you pod. Thanks to Hobart and Robert for this enjoyable chat and Magnet for the collaboration. I hope you enjoy it. I sure did. Below are Hobart's notes on Kontiki. "Initially released with a whisper 26 years ago on a tiny Houston-based label, Kontiki is one of the great lost albums of the '90s. Working out of his house and a friend's place in the Texas Hill Country, Cotton Mather's Robert Harrison recorded then deconstructed songs he'd once assumed would get a more conventional rock-band treatment. Tools included an ADAT, a four-track cassette recorder and a two-track DAT machine. The result is one of the catchiest “experimental” albums you'll ever hear. Tracks with odd titles like “Camp Hill Radio Operator,” “Homefront Cameo,” “Aurora Bori Alice” and “Vegetable Row” offer equally strange and cryptic lyrics set to overtly hummable melodies. Conceived in a virtual creative vacuum, Kontiki ranks among the best power-pop albums of all time. A quarter-century later, it still sounds utterly timeless—yet weirdly current." - Hobart Rowland Follow us on Instagram, TikTok, X, Facebook, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or anywhere you pod.

Pastor walks his children through Children's Catechism question 35—especially explaining how Adam's fall means that we are conceived sinful. Q35. What effect had the sin of Adam on all mankind? All mankind are born in a state of sin and misery. The lesson establishes that Adam's sin plunged all humanity into a state of sin and misery, not merely as a personal failure but as a federal representation of his posterity, resulting in every person being conceived and born in sin. In contrast, Jesus, as the Second Adam, reverses this curse by redeeming believers through His atoning sacrifice, imputing His righteousness, and initiating a process of sanctification that will culminate in final glorification.
“How Old Was Mary When She conceived Jesus?” This question opens a discussion on her significance within the Catholic faith, addressing whether she holds a higher status than other saints. The conversation also touches on the nature of Marian prayers and how to respond to those who downplay her importance in Christianity. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 15:41 – Is Mary a saint and if so, is she higher than other saints? 23:29 – Is there any evidence that would suggest Mary's parents were visited by an angel informing them that she would be born without sin and would be the mother of the savior? 31:42 – How do I respond to my protestant friend who says all she needs is God and Mary is not important to Christian Faith? 37:35 – How old was Mary when she conceived Jesus? 41:30 – At the annunciation it was just the Angel Gabriel and Mary, is there any witnesses or way to vouch for the event being true? 46:49 – Why does the Church teach that some things are symbolic about Mary?
On this episode of Fantastic Forum, we break down Escape #1 from Image and Floaters #1, the body-horror one-shot from Finish Line Comics. In Escape #1, writer Rick Remender and artist Daniel Acuña deliver a visceral, war-torn epic that starts with a bomber pilot shot down behind enemy lines in a brutal, anthropomorphic world. Stranded in a city he once helped obliterate, Milton Shaw is trying to escape before his own side's bomb drops and erases everyone in its path. Then we review Floaters #1! Conceived by Edward Davis, this one-shot uses body horror to explore how something as mundane as eye floaters can morph into a nightmarish force that dismantles a person's life. We've read the books, the dust has settled — now it's time to talk about what worked, what surprised us, and why both deserve the conversation.

This week, for Christmas, a heart-warming festive treat full of joy, goodwill and Peter Sellers at his cuddliest. ONLY JOKING.Actually, it's Carol for Another Christmas, Rod Serling's bleak, angry, Cold War reworking of A Christmas Carol . Conceived as the opening salvo in a run of UN-friendly TV specials, the film is a full-throated warning against isolationism, nuclear brinkmanship and the idea that minding your own business ever ends well. Xerox paid for it, ABC aired it ad-free on 28 December 1964, viewers and critics were divided about it, and it then disappeared for nearly 50 years.Directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz (Cleopatra) in his only television outing, the film stars Sterling Hayden as Daniel Grudge, a wealthy American industrialist who hates foreign aid, diplomacy and the United Nations in equal measure. On Christmas Eve he clashes with his liberal nephew Fred (Ben Gazzara) and is hauled through a series of visions featuring war dead, nuclear devastation and, most memorably, Peter Sellers as “Imperial Me” – a cowboy-Santa demagogue preaching radical individualism. It was Sellers' first screen appearance after his near-fatal heart attack earlier that year.Also featuring Eva Marie Saint, Robert Shaw, Steve Lawrence, Pat Hingle, Britt Ekland and music by Henry Mancini, the film is verbose, didactic and relentlessly grim – and all the more fascinating for it.Joining Tyler is Tilt Araiza (The Sitcom Club / Jaffa Cakes for Proust), drawing parallels with Planet of the Apes, The Prisoner and unpacking Serling and the social and political climate just one year after after the assassination of JFK... looking at how things came together to produce this Christmas curio.
Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: .Sermon Notes:1. A New Beginning That Looks Scandalous (v. 18)“Birth” = genesis → a new creation is beginning.Conceived by the Holy Spirit, not human effort.From God's view: glorious.From human view: confusing and shameful.2. Joseph: Righteous and Compassionate (vv. 18–19)Betrothal = legally binding marriage.Joseph assumes unfaithfulness, yet:Chooses a quiet divorceWilling to absorb personal cost to spare Mary shame.A just man who shows mercy.Foreshadows the grace and truth we later see in Jesus.3. God Speaks Into Fear (v. 20)An angel appears while Joseph is considering his options.“Do not fear” — a repeated Christmas command.God's saving work confronts and overturns human fear.4. The Grand Miracle: God With Us (vv. 20–23)The child is conceived by the Holy Spirit.The Virgin Birth makes the Incarnation possible.Jesus is:Fully GodFully humanChristmas is holy ground.5. Faith That Obeys (vv. 24–25a)Joseph believes God's word and acts.Takes Mary as his wife.Exercises sexual self-control until after Jesus' birth.Honors the sacred work of the Holy Spirit.A model of obedience, reverence, and self-control.6. The Name: Jesus — Yahweh Saves (v. 21)God chooses the name.Yeshua = “Yahweh saves.”His mission:Not primarily political or socialTo save his people from their sinsMary and Joseph were the first humans to speak his name.7.

The life and legacy of Evan Roberts gets stranger
So how does God decide who is a murderer?When God weights acts of murder, He doesn't go easy on those who kill very young and very little babies. He doesn't decree an intermediate condemnation for those who murder these very little ones not yet attached to their mother's womb because they only have "intermediate moral value."The murder of the very young or very old is not more or less evil based upon the pain others do or do not suffer at his loss. Man is not the measure of all things.God is. And what has God decreed concerning murder?Whoever sheds man's blood,By man his blood shall be shed,For in the image of GodHe made man. (Genesis 9:6)

The B-29 Superfortress and the Battle of Omaha — Arthur Herman — Herman recounts the genesis of the B-29 Superfortress bomber, conceived after General Hap Arnold consulted with Charles Lindbergh in 1939. The B-29represented the ultimate expression of air supremacy doctrine, demanding revolutionary technologies including pressurized crew cabins and remote-controlled gun turrets that did not yet exist. Bill Knudsen directed the program, overcoming severe delays and persistent technical deficiencies. Knudsen won the "Battle of Omaha" by insisting that aircraft be extensively modified after assembly to achieve operational flight status, thereby integrating a massive female industrial workforce into B-29 production processes. 1945 LOS ALAMOS.

Young Activists Plan the Audacious Pan-European Picnic. Matthew Longo describes how in late June 1989, young activists Fedins and Maria in Debrecen conceived an audacious plan to throw a protest party—The Picnic—at the Iron Curtain near Sopron. They aimed to challenge communism and celebrate freedom. Though the Curtain was a deadly "death zone," not a simple fence, they secured a unique one-time crossing, allowing Austrians to join the Hungarians. Guest: Matthew Longo.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I am absolutely honored to finally have on the show - MK ULTRA, child trafficking and SRA survivor, targeted individual, survivor advocate, Ordained Minister, YouTuber and content creator, writer and author, one of my dear friends and one of God's fierce warriors, Holly Baglio!In the shadowed laboratories of a world gone mad, where Nazi ghosts whispered blueprints for hell, Holly was not born - she was engineered. Conceived in a test tube under the merciless gaze of Josef Mengele, the "Angel of Death", Holly entered existence on September 12, 1974, as Project Mannequin's living canvas. Fusing Annunaki DNA, Rothschild bloodlines, and fragments of her biological parents' essence, Mengele sculpted her not as a child, but as a weapon: a programmable slave in the sprawling nightmare of MK ULTRA.For 37 unrelenting years, she was a ghost in the machine of black ops and elite depravity. Trafficked as a child through Deep Underground Military Bases (DUMBs) in Texas, Canada, and beyond, Holly endured the unimaginable: electroshock fractures to splinter her psyche into 169 alters, surgical enhancements to twist her body into a super soldier's shell, and satanic rituals that summoned entities from the void.The "Daisy Game" haunts her still - a petal-plucked roulette of Mengele's whimsy turned carnage. "He loves me... He loves me not." The final "not" spared Holly that day, but sealed the fate of the child beside her, torn apart before a circle of wide-eyed prisoners. Survival was no mercy; it was a curseTrafficked for her elite genetics, she was the elites' invisible hand - politicians, military brass, secret society puppets - who masked child trafficking rings and ritual murders behind taxpayer-funded veils. Pizzagate? Not a conspiracy theory, but Holly's lived hell.But in December 2011, salvation shattered the chains. Three little boys from her childhood cages - now grown men of unbreakable vow - stormed back for her, honoring a pact forged in blood: "If one gets free, we return for the rest." They didn't leave her behind. But it wouldn't be until 2014 when she'd wake up to memories that shattered everything she knew about her life and the road to healing would begin. Having had a relationship with God since she was a young child, Holly's journey has been filled with incredible moments including being baptized by the one and only Ruzz Dizdar and becoming an ordained minister.Holly is no longer a slave to shadows. She is the dawn that devours them - a living testament that one soul, forged in hellfire and redeemed by heaven's blaze, can topple empires of evil. Her abusers tried to dumb down her courage and strength, but what they didn't realize was that they actually forged a warrior. A child who would grow into a woman with unrelenting bravery, a voice that would shake the Luciferian Kingdom, and a heart of gold - which is evident in her advocacy work for other survivors. Through YAHUSHA's name, she storms the gates, healing the fractured, awakening the asleep, and heralding a reckoning where no child is caged, no truth is buried, and no darkness withstands the light.CONNECT WITH HOLLY: Website: https://hollybaglio.com/CONNECT WITH EMMA: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@imaginationpodcastofficialEMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.com OR standbysurvivors@protonmail.comMy Substack: https://emmakatherine.substack.com/BUY ME A COFFEE: Support the show
There's a stigma around the word “underwear”. You don't talk about it until you don't have it. -Catherine Maloy This week's guest is a mom who saw a simple need for children in crisis and made it her mission to do something about it. Catherine Maloy is the Founder & Executive Director of a non-profit called Cocotree Kids www.cocotreekids.org. Let's all agree: underwear is not glamorous, but it is fundamental. Without it, children may feel shamed, vulnerable, and excluded. Conceived during the pandemic and launched as a neighborhood clothing drive, Cocotree Kids has established 30 partnerships with hospitals, shelters, and schools, distributing 430,000 pairs of new underwear to 60,000 children throughout Massachusetts. “Underwear is an essential human need,” says Catherine. We want to give children in crisis the dignity, hope, comfort, and confidence they need to succeed, despite their circumstances.“ Originally from Miami, Florida, Catherine was raised in a home where philanthropic acts of service connected family to community. A 14-year veteran of Deloitte with a focus on Consulting and Human Resources, Catherine offers this advice: “Be a part of something bigger than yourself. Success is something you are supposed to be proud of.” For 20 minutes of empathy and innovation, just hit that download button. #children #non-profit #crisis #community
We delve into the miraculous events surrounding the conceptions of John the Baptist and Jesus. We explore Zechariah's encounter with the angel Gabriel, which left him mute and prophesying about the significance of his son, John. We also follow the angel's announcement to Mary, revealing that she would conceive Jesus, the Messiah. As Mary visits Elizabeth, the Holy Spirit confirms the miraculous pregnancies, highlighting the divine plan unfolding through them. Zechariah's restored speech leads to a powerful prophecy about John's role in preparing the way for Jesus.Support the showRead along with us in the Bible Brief App!

Trump once said he wanted generals like the Nazis. Today, at his limp MAGA rally, he made his pitch. Photos show military leaders looking stunned, confused, and struggling not to laugh. His approval ratings are collapsing, especially in swing states, as he flails in an Epstein cover-up implicating Mike Johnson, who's blocking the swearing-in of Arizona's new Democratic representative–the vote that could force a House debate on releasing the Epstein files. Trump is the Frankenstein's monster of a 50-year Christian nationalist plan using the prosperity gospel to turn America into a dictatorship, making him the most dangerous enemy from within. The Seven Mountain Mandate reads like a discarded Lord of the Rings draft where Sauron wins. It's a 50-year plan to bring a strongman like Trump to power and turn America into a dictatorship. Conceived in the 1970s by Bill Bright (Campus Crusade for Christ) and Loren Cunningham (Youth With A Mission), it emerged as a white-rage backlash to Civil Rights, bankrolled by Big Oil. Later, televangelist Lance Wallnau popularized it through Ziklag, a network for Christian nationalists worth over $25 million, and passed the torch to third-generation leaders like Charlie Kirk. Kirk's Turning Point USA targeted Matthew Boedy, a University of North Georgia professor, harassing him for speaking against guns on campus. After being placed on a “watch list,” Boedy began researching and wrote The Seven Mountains Mandate: Exposing the Dangerous Plan to Christianize America and Destroy Democracy. The Mandate's strategy is to dominate seven cultural “mountains”: Religion – Shape faith and morality to normalize fascism. Family – Patriarchal households dictate politics; LGBTQ+ people, feminists, immigrants, and academics are silenced, outlawed, and erased. Education – Raise children in a dominance culture where “might makes right” to normalize fascism. Government – Collapse church-state separation, recasting America as a “Christian republic,” not a democracy. Media – Control the narrative so news becomes propaganda. Arts & Entertainment – Capture Hollywood, TV, even TikTok, using culture as a weapon (i.e., attacks on Jimmy Kimmel). Business – The prosperity gospel – “Jesus wants you to fund my jet” – drew greed-driven donors who built the movement across generations. The goal: capture every cultural sphere until society mirrors their theology. Stopping it requires progressives to build their own generational strategy, rooted in empathy, inclusion, and solidarity.

3/4: This file details Steady State theory creation, Hoyle's element theory, coining "Big Bang," and CMB discovery. Fred Hoyle, Bondi, and Gold conceived Steady State theory after watching The Dead of Night (1946/47). Their model proposed continuous creation via quantum uncertainty. Hoyle solved carbon formation: two helium atoms form unstable Beryllium-8, briefly uniting with third helium to forge Carbon-12. Hoyle predicted carbon's specific energy level, which Willie Fowler at Caltech verified. Hoyle coined "Big Bang" derisively on BBC radio, mocking single-blast creation. Gamow and Ralph Alpher called initial substance "ylem." Hoyle and Gamow met in 1956 La Jolla, discussing universe temperature; Hoyle believed near 0 Kelvin, Gamow preferred 10 Kelvin. In 1964, Penzias and Wilson at Bell Labs accidentally discovered persistent background radiation—the Cosmic Microwave Background—proving the Big Bang that Gamow sought.

Khrushchev chose cavalryman Ivan Pliyev of North Ossetia to command the operation, valuing his loyalty and multi-unit experience. Over 40,000 unprepared Soviet troops were deployeD. 1962 CUBA
