Is There a Connection Between the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Library? An Interview with Dr. Matthew Goff and Dr. Dylan Burns (Part 1) Professors Matthew Goff and Dylan Burns realized there were some surprising commonalities between the Dead Sea Scrolls and Nag Hammadi Library. Traditionally, these ancient writings are studied separately, despite their modern discoveries around the same time and relatively close locations. With Dr. Goff's expertise in the Dead Sea Scrolls and Dr. Burns' expertise in the Nag Hammadi Library, they could describe why both are so important for an understanding of the evolution of Judeo-Christian religions. This is part one of a two-part series. The second episode in the series will be released on June 4, 2025. Read the book they co-authored, The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Codices. It's open source, so it's available for free! Dr. Dylan M. Burns is Assistant Professor of the History of Esotericism in Late Antiquity at the University of Amsterdam. He earned his doctorate in Ancient Christianity at Yale University in 2011, before holding research positions in Copenhagen, Leipzig, and Berlin. Among his books are Apocalypse of the Alien God: Platonism and the Exile of Sethian Gnosticism (2014), Did God Care? Providence, Dualism, and Will in Later Greek and Early Christian Philosophy (2020), and The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Codices (2022). Dr. Matthew Goff joined the faculty of Florida State's Religion Department in 2005. He completed an M.T.S degree in 1997 at Harvard Divinity School and finished his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 2002. He studied under John Collins and wrote his dissertation on a Qumran text entitled 4QInstruction. His publications focus on the Dead Sea Scrolls and ancient Judaism, and his most recent book is The Apocrypha: A Guide (Oxford, 2024). His current book project is on demons and monsters in ancient Judaism and early Christianity.

There is a world you can't see... But it can see you, and you're only one step away from it.Some of us see the Barzakh as something distant, and a realm that we only interact with after death, but in reality *we are connected to it even now.* The unseen world is not entirely seperate from us, we interact with it without even realizing. *The Quran and Sunnah* reveal that the realm of the *Barzakh is interwined with our existence here*, but what does this teach us about the *unseen forces that shape our reality*, our *purpose in this life* and *our ultimate destination*? Join us for the first session of our Ramadan Faith Circle series, where Dr. Zohair will take us through the role of the Barzakh in our lives today, the unseen connections between this world and the next, and how our existence is already linked to what awaits us beyond the grave.

The CJNG, or Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación, is one of the most powerful and notorious criminal organizations in Mexico. It is a drug trafficking cartel that primarily operates in the western state of Jalisco, but its influence extends throughout Mexico and into other countries.The CJNG was founded in 2010 by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, also known as "El Mencho," a former member of the Milenio Cartel. Since its inception, the CJNG has rapidly grown in power and has become one of the leading criminal organizations in the country, challenging the Sinaloa Cartel for dominance in the Mexican drug trade.The CJNG is involved in various criminal activities, including drug trafficking, extortion, kidnapping, and acts of violence. It has established a reputation for its brutality and willingness to engage in acts of extreme violence to control its territories and eliminate rival cartels. The group has been responsible for numerous high-profile acts of violence, including mass killings, ambushes on law enforcement, and the use of explosives.The cartel has expanded its operations internationally, with a significant presence in the United States and other countries. It has developed sophisticated smuggling networks and has been able to transport large quantities of drugs, primarily methamphetamine and fentanyl, across the U.S.-Mexico border.The CJNG has also engaged in territorial disputes with other cartels, leading to intense violence and instability in several regions of Mexico. It has clashed with the Sinaloa Cartel, Los Zetas, and other criminal organizations, resulting in a wave of violence that has claimed thousands of lives.Despite facing significant law enforcement pressure, the CJNG continues to operate and expand its influence.It has shown resilience in adapting its tactics and maintaining a strong presence in various regions of Mexico. Its ability to corrupt officials, including police and politicians, has contributed to its longevity and ability to evade capture.The CJNG poses a significant challenge to Mexican authorities and represents a major threat to public security in the country. Efforts to dismantle the cartel have proven difficult, and its influence remains a source of concern for both Mexican and international law enforcement agencies.In this episode, we are going to look at the CJNG's possible involvement in the missing call center worker siutation and how the CJNG utlizes other streams of revenue, such as time share schemes to help supplement their war chest.

Send us a Text Message.Introduction:Mind-body harmony is discussed as the fourth pillar to Live Long and Well (along with exercise, nutrition, sleep, exposure to heat/cold, social relationships).Mind-body activities encompass meditation, controlled breathing exercises, yoga, and spending time in nature.Part 1: The Connection Between the Mind and the Body:The mind influences bodily functions such as movement, heart rate, and breathing.Conversely, the body communicates with the mind, signaling when to breathe, sensing pain, and indicating hunger.Chronic stress can disrupt the mind-body connection, leading to health issues.Part 2: Impact of Mind-Body Imbalance on Health:Chronic stress can have adverse effects on health, including an increased risk of heart disease and mortality.The stress associated with losing a spouse significantly increases the likelihood of dying for the surviving spouseStudies show associations between stress and conditions like high blood pressure, asthma symptoms, migraine headaches, irritable bowel syndrome, multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, and mental health disorders.Stress can exacerbate existing illnesses and affect overall well-being.Assess your stress level with the Perceived Stress Scale QuestionnairePart 3: Improving Mind-Body Harmony:Various mind-body activities, such as meditation, yoga, breath exercises, and nature walks, can enhance well-being.Walking in nature reduces evidence of stress in the brain. Studies of mindfulness meditation demonstrate reductions in blood pressure, improvements in sleep quality, and decreases in depression symptoms and decreased cortisol levels.Yoga practice has been shown to reduce blood pressure, improve insulin resistance, and BMI. Where do we go from here?As always, it is important to determine whether these activities will help you!Start with a baseline assessment of your mood or blood pressure, or general wellbeing.Then select a mind-body activity to begin/testAfter several weeks, assess the same baseline elements--see if you have made progress in that area.For more information, go to:  www.DrBobbyLiveLongandWell.com

Summary In this episode, Erica explores the concept of shadow work and its connection to the womb. She discusses the original source of shadow patterns and how they can be influenced by our experiences in the womb and during birth. Erica shares her personal experiences and reflections on her own shadow patterns, as well as the importance of healing ancestral and collective traumas. She also recommends several books on healing trauma and reclaiming the power of the womb. Takeaways Shadow work involves exploring the unconscious aspects of ourselves and healing ancestral and collective traumas. Our experiences in the womb and during birth can shape our shadow patterns and influence our behavior and emotions. Understanding and integrating both the lunar (water) and solar (fire) shadow patterns can lead to a more balanced and healed womb. Healing the womb and clearing energetic imprints can have a profound impact on our own healing journey and the future generations. Recognizing and questioning our shadow patterns can help us discover our authentic selves and find balance in our lives.

Adult ADHD ADD Tips and Support Podcast - A Podcast for Neurodivergent Creatives. The Connection Between the Hunter Farmer Theory of ADHD and Neurodiversity. This podcast is an audio companion to the book "The Drummer and the Great Mountain - A Guidebook to Transforming Adult ADD / ADHD." In this episode, we'll explore the connection between the Hunter Farmer theory of ADHD and the concepts of neurodiversity and neurodivergent. As we unpack these two viewpoints of ADHD, they both seem to point in the same direction: people with ADHD have gifts to contribute to society. We'll also discuss how the hunter-farmer theory can lead us back to ancient and deeply nourishing practices that can allow us to feel more at home in the world and with ourselves.

Word Beneath the Words with Malcolm GuiteWe're joined on our podcast by poet, priest and songwriter, Malcolm Guite. With grace and insight, Malcolm has written of the mystery, beauty and imaginative force of language and the ways in which our imaginations apprehend truth that our reason cannot fully comprehend:“Jesus says, love the Lord your God with all your heart, and all your soul, and all your strength, and all your mind. And somewhere in all those ‘alls' is all your imagination.  And in fact, when we look at the teaching of Jesus, it's mostly an appeal to the imagination as a way of perceiving truth in a fresh way. He tells stories and parables.”We trust that you'll be inspired by the beauty of Guite's poetry, and by the ways in which the poetic imagination brings healing to the false divide between the subjective and the objective.04:44 The Connection Between the Priestly and Poetic Vocations12:02 The Role of Imagination in Apprehending Truth17:48 The Responsibility of Language and the Power of Words23:24 The Idea of Being Spoken into Being32:25 The Destructive Power of Words36:23 The Importance of Intellectual HospitalityThis podcast is an edited version of an online conversation recorded in 2024.

In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it can be easy to overlook the quiet yet profound messages in the Bible. In this video, we dive into the wisdom of John 10:27 and uncover valuable life lessons that can inspire and guide us on our spiritual journey. Highlights God's Unseen Knowledge: Have you ever felt like someone was judging your faith? Remember, God is the ultimate judge. He knows the hearts of all, and whether you're declared a Christian by others or not, it's God's recognition that truly matters. The Connection Between the Shepherd and His Sheep: Just like a shepherd and his flock, there's a special bond between God and His children. The sheep follow the shepherd, illustrating the connection between believers and God. He Calls Us by Name: The personal relationship between God and each individual is highlighted. God knows us by name, showing the depth of His love and care for us. The Shepherd Leads: In the Bible, the shepherd goes before the sheep. God leads us, showing the way and guiding us through life's challenges. Recognizing the Shepherd's Voice: God's voice is distinctive to those who truly belong to Him. The ability to distinguish His voice from others is a hallmark of faith. Attentiveness to His Word: His sheep not only recognize His voice but also pay attention when He speaks. The ability to focus on God's word is a crucial aspect of our faith journey. Obedience to God's Word: The ultimate test of our faith is whether we obey God's word. It's a reminder that His voice echoes through the Bible, and any other "voice" that contradicts His word isn't from Him. Conforming to His Teachings: Are you shaping your life according to God's teachings? True followers of God aim to live according to His standards and align their lives with His word. In a world filled with noise and distractions, John 10:27 encourages us to listen to God's voice, obey His word, and be His true sheep. Let's always seek to hear His voice and respond with faith and obedience. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gnbc/message

Understanding the Connection Between the Sefirot and the Name of Hashem, Yud Kay Vov Kay

The CJNG, or Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación, is one of the most powerful and notorious criminal organizations in Mexico. It is a drug trafficking cartel that primarily operates in the western state of Jalisco, but its influence extends throughout Mexico and into other countries.The CJNG was founded in 2010 by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, also known as "El Mencho," a former member of the Milenio Cartel. Since its inception, the CJNG has rapidly grown in power and has become one of the leading criminal organizations in the country, challenging the Sinaloa Cartel for dominance in the Mexican drug trade.The CJNG is involved in various criminal activities, including drug trafficking, extortion, kidnapping, and acts of violence. It has established a reputation for its brutality and willingness to engage in acts of extreme violence to control its territories and eliminate rival cartels. The group has been responsible for numerous high-profile acts of violence, including mass killings, ambushes on law enforcement, and the use of explosives.The cartel has expanded its operations internationally, with a significant presence in the United States and other countries. It has developed sophisticated smuggling networks and has been able to transport large quantities of drugs, primarily methamphetamine and fentanyl, across the U.S.-Mexico border.The CJNG has also engaged in territorial disputes with other cartels, leading to intense violence and instability in several regions of Mexico. It has clashed with the Sinaloa Cartel, Los Zetas, and other criminal organizations, resulting in a wave of violence that has claimed thousands of lives.Despite facing significant law enforcement pressure, the CJNG continues to operate and expand its influence.It has shown resilience in adapting its tactics and maintaining a strong presence in various regions of Mexico. Its ability to corrupt officials, including police and politicians, has contributed to its longevity and ability to evade capture.The CJNG poses a significant challenge to Mexican authorities and represents a major threat to public security in the country. Efforts to dismantle the cartel have proven difficult, and its influence remains a source of concern for both Mexican and international law enforcement agencies.In this episode, we are going to look at the CJNG's possible involvement in the missing call center worker siutation and how the CJNG utlizes other streams of revenue, such as time share schemes to help supplement their war chest.(commercial at 9:26)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:The Connection Between the Jalisco Cartel, Missing Employees at Call Center, 45 Bags of Body Parts, Timeshare Scams, and American Tourists (vallartadaily.com)This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5080327/advertisement

The CJNG, or Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación, is one of the most powerful and notorious criminal organizations in Mexico. It is a drug trafficking cartel that primarily operates in the western state of Jalisco, but its influence extends throughout Mexico and into other countries.The CJNG was founded in 2010 by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, also known as "El Mencho," a former member of the Milenio Cartel. Since its inception, the CJNG has rapidly grown in power and has become one of the leading criminal organizations in the country, challenging the Sinaloa Cartel for dominance in the Mexican drug trade.The CJNG is involved in various criminal activities, including drug trafficking, extortion, kidnapping, and acts of violence. It has established a reputation for its brutality and willingness to engage in acts of extreme violence to control its territories and eliminate rival cartels. The group has been responsible for numerous high-profile acts of violence, including mass killings, ambushes on law enforcement, and the use of explosives.The cartel has expanded its operations internationally, with a significant presence in the United States and other countries. It has developed sophisticated smuggling networks and has been able to transport large quantities of drugs, primarily methamphetamine and fentanyl, across the U.S.-Mexico border.The CJNG has also engaged in territorial disputes with other cartels, leading to intense violence and instability in several regions of Mexico. It has clashed with the Sinaloa Cartel, Los Zetas, and other criminal organizations, resulting in a wave of violence that has claimed thousands of lives.Despite facing significant law enforcement pressure, the CJNG continues to operate and expand its influence.It has shown resilience in adapting its tactics and maintaining a strong presence in various regions of Mexico. Its ability to corrupt officials, including police and politicians, has contributed to its longevity and ability to evade capture.The CJNG poses a significant challenge to Mexican authorities and represents a major threat to public security in the country. Efforts to dismantle the cartel have proven difficult, and its influence remains a source of concern for both Mexican and international law enforcement agencies.In this episode, we are going to look at the CJNG's possible involvement in the missing call center worker siutation and how the CJNG utlizes other streams of revenue, such as time share schemes to help supplement their war chest.

Well, all this snow this past week has had me thinking about summertime and the beach, and I want to let it be known that the beaches in North Carolina are better than the beaches in Texas. I grew up about an hour and a half from the coast in North Carolina and my family would vacation at the beach every year, and so I do admit that my opinion is a little bias, but I've been to the beach in Texas once, and it was a terrible experience.It was few years ago, Melissa and I took our older kids on a trip to visit family friends in Austin, and we decided to drive down to the beach one day, and it was a little overcast and windy, but the kids really wanted to swim, and it just so happened that the beach was not crowded at all. So we get out there, and they ran into the water and they're splashing around, having a great time, and then after a little while they came running back out of the water and they said they were stinging and itching all over. They were screaming “Get it off! Get it off!” We didn't see anything right way, but as we looked them over we found these little, almost translucent bugs everywhere. And then we looked around and noticed, about every 30 yards or so, there were purple flags out. And we said, “Hmm. Wonder what these purple flags mean?” Well we looked it up … the purple flags mean “dangerous marine life has been spotted.” We walk over to the water and looked and there were more jellyfish than I'd ever seen before in my life. And we found out later that those the little bugs were actually jellyfish larvae … also known as “sea lice” — and look, I've gone to the beach in North Carolina my entire life and never heard of this! I go to the beach in Texas once and my kids get sea lice.But here's the thing: as much I wanna blame it on Texas or the Gulf of Mexico or whatever, the whole thing was really my fault — because the purple flags were out. The warning was right in front of me, but I ignored it. And typically, as a general rule, when we ignore warnings, bad things happen. The warnings are there for a reason. That is certainly the case in Hebrews Chapter 3. In verses 7–11, after we read the quotation from Psalm 95, what we see here in verses 12–19 is a very clear warning, and my objective in this sermon is to make sure we don't ignore it. We're going to look at it in two parts. Two questions: What Is the Basis of the Warning?What Is the Heart of the Warning?Father, by the power of your Spirit, please open the eyes of our hearts to behold wonderful things in your word. Accomplish your will in us, for your glory. In Jesus's name, amen. 1) What Is the Basis of the Warning?Now before we really dig in here, I think it'd be good to step back and get a view of the passage overall. And I want to encourage you to get your Bible open and look at the words with me. And if you don't have a hardcopy Bible we would love to give you one! We have them over here and back there on tables, and they are yours to take. If possible, I want everybody to see what's going on here.With your Bible open, look at verse 7. You can see that verse 7 down to verse 11 is that quotation. Pastor Joe helped us out last week by explaining that this quotation is from Psalm 95, and Psalm 95 is referring to an event that happened early in Israel's history in the Book of Numbers.And the short summary of that story is that Israel failed to trust Yahweh, even after everything they had seen him do. They did not trust his word, they rebelled against him, and as judgment on them, God said he would kill them all. And he did. The only exception was Joshua and Caleb because they had faith. Every other person above the age of 20 who grumbled against God, God put them to death in the wilderness over the course of forty years. That's the story. It is a cautionary tale of unbelief and judgment.So Psalm 95 looked back on that story to give us a lesson from it; and now the writer of Hebrews looks back on Psalm 95 to repeat that lesson. And that lesson is a warning.After the writer quotes Psalm 95, in verse 12 we see the warning. He says: “Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart…” Now, the way the passage is organized, the writer gives the warning first in verses 12–13 and then he gives the rationale for the warning in verses 14–19, but this morning I want to explain the passage by switching that order around. We're gonna start with the rationale, or the basis of the warning (these bottom verses), and then we're going to come back to the top and look closer at the warning itself. Why Warnings ExistWhen it comes to the basis of the warning it has to do with the possibility of danger. That's the case for any kind warning. Warnings exist because there is some danger we want to avoid, like jellyfish, and avoiding that danger is usually for our good. This means that warnings are really expressions of kindness. We don't typically think that way about warnings. My guess is that for a lot of us the word “warning” itself sounds negative and uncomfortable and we don't like it — we'd rather keep it all positive. But warnings are important, and we need them because we live in a world of real danger. And real, spiritual danger is the issue here in Hebrews. It's the danger of apostasy.The Threat of ApostasyThat's something that we talked about several weeks ago when we started in the Book of Hebrews. Remember that one of the problems that these early Christians were facing — one of the main things that occasioned this letter — was the threat of apostasy. It's that people have and do fall away from the faith. There are important nuances and details with that and we talked about those in that first sermon, but at least on the surface, people walk away from Jesus. People abandon Jesus. And that is a problem, that's dangerous, because if you forsake faith in Jesus, you will not be saved by Jesus.We see that basic point repeated here at least three times:First, it's in verse 6. It's what leads into the quote from Psalm 95. Hebrews 3, look at verse 6: “…And we are his house [God's house], if indeed we hold fast our confidence and our boasting in our hope.” Second, we see the same point in verse 14. Look at verse 14: “For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end.” Verse 14 repeats verse 6. The same conditional conjunction is used. It's the word “if”, and the same word for “hold” or “hold fast” is used. Verse 6: “if indeed we hold fast our confidence”Verse 14: “if indeed we hold our original confidence”Same idea. And now we can see that being God's house in verse 6 and sharing in Christ in verse 14 are also the same idea. They're both ways to describe our salvation. It means we are God's people, we are truly Christians, we are united to Jesus and co-heirs of his benefits. That is us if we keep on believing. The message is that we are saved by Jesus if we keep clinging to Jesus by faith. But the danger, apparently, is that it's possible that we might stop clinging to Jesus. It's possible that some might forsake Jesus. And to make this point, this is where Psalm 95 comes in. Psalm 95 was already quoted in verses 7–11, but then in verse 15 the writer of Hebrews quotes it again.After he repeats the conditional point in verse 14 — that we're saved by Jesus if we keep clinging to Jesus — verse 15 goes, “As it is said …” and then we're back to Psalm 95.The writer is saying, basically, Hey, we're saved by Jesus if we keep clinging to Jesus, just like we've learned from Psalm 95. …The ‘Questions' of Verses 16–18And what exactly have we learned from Psalm 95? We've learned, at the very least, that you can be so close to the salvation of God and yet not be saved because you do not believe. That's the point that the writer of Hebrews drives home in a string of questions in verses 16–18. There are five questions in a row with three conclusions.Have y'all ever played the game called Questions? You try to carry on a conversation with someone only by using questions. It's a great road trip game. For example, if Pastor Kenny and I were on a road trip together, I'd ask him: “Kenny, is Sunday your favorite day of the week?” And Kenny would say, “Is the Pope Catholic?” It'd just be questions back and forth. That's kind of what's going on here. There are five questions but two of the questions are rhetorical questions that answer previous questions. Look at verse 16. Question 1 — verse 16aSpeaking of Psalm 95, “For who were those who heard and yet rebelled?” That is, who were the ones in this story of Israel who heard the word of God and rebelled against him?Rhetorical Question 1 — verse 16b “Was is not all those who left Egypt led by Moses?” See that's an affirmation. The two questions together in verse 16 are saying: Those who heard the word of God and rebelled against him were all those who Moses led out of Egypt and saw what God did. Question 2 — verse 17a “And with whom was he [God] provoked for forty years?” That is, who were the ones in this story with whom God was angry and punished for forty years in the wilderness?Rhetorical Question 2 — verse 17b “Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?” See again, that's an affirmation. Both questions in verse 17 are saying: Those with whom God was angry were those who did not trust God and therefore they died in the wilderness.Rhetorical Question 3 — verse 18 “And to whom did he [God] swear that they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient?” This is a rhetorical question affirming that those who do not believe (the unbelieving, the disobedient) do not enter God's rest. They don't inherit God's promised salvation.Altogether, through these questions, the writer of Hebrews is saying: Hey, keep clinging to Jesus, because we know the story of Numbers, we get the lesson distilled for us in Psalm 95 — it's that those who don't believe are not saved, even if they're so close to God's salvation that they see it for themselves. If they don't believe, then they don't enter God's rest. That's the summary point of verse 19. Look at verse 19: “So we see [through Psalm 95] that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.” And entering God's rest here in verse 19 is analogous to being God's house (verse 6) and sharing in Christ (verse 14). They're all describing God's salvation. The logic of the passage is saying that those who do not believe do not enter God's rest, do not share in Christ, are not God's house. If you do not believe in Jesus, you will not be saved by Jesus; and unbelief is a danger. That's verses 14–19. That is the basis of the warning.These verses are the reason that when we start at the top in verse 12 there's a big warning flag flying in our face. And I mean it's right here. You can't miss it. We started with the basis of the warning in verses 14–19, now let's look at the heart of the warning in verse 12.2) The Heart of the WarningVerse 12, “Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God.” The heart of the warning is a warning about your heart. That's what we find here. The warning is that first command there, “take care.” It's actually the verb “to see,” which is the same Greek word used in verse 19. Everyone look down at verse 19 again. See that word “see” in verse 19 — “So we see…” That's the same word that starts this passage in verse 12. This passage is bookended with the same word because the writer wants us to read this as one unit. The reason verse 12 is translated “take care” is because it's an imperative, it's a command, so he's saying not simply, “See, brothers…” but he's saying “watch out, brothers!” When this verb is in the imperative form it always has that kind of force. It means: Watch out! Look at! Take care! It's a warning. And a warning about what? “Watch out, brothers, lest there be. …”Now the writer of Hebrews is going to give us the ‘purpose' for watching out. There's a negative reality to beware. This is the thing we should avoid. It's in that phrase “lest there be.” Another way to say it is: Watch out, brothers, so that none of you have an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. Now it's important that he mentions the heart. First, that's a call back to the Psalm 95 quote. Look back up to verse 10. The problem of unbelief in the Old Testament story was that the Israelites “went astray in their hearts.” That's what Psalm 95 says, quoted in verse in 10. The “going astray in the heart” in verse 10 is the same idea as “an evil, unbelieving heart” in verse 12 — and that results in falling away from the living God.So by this one verse alone, we can see that the heart is a big deal. What leads people to “fall away” — which is the word apostasize, it means to abandon — what leads people to abandon God is an unbelieving heart. By this fact alone, right here, we could argue that the battle for the heart is the battle for eternal life and death. Verse 12 says as much. But then we also have the full testimony of Scripture. What else does the Bible say about the heart?What About the Heart?The Bible teaches us that the heart is the control center of who we are. It's the source from which we interact with the world. Jesus taught us this. He said, “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks” (Matthew 12:34) He said, “from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, and foolishness.” (Mark 7:21–23) The point is that every sin — including especially the sin of unbelief talked about in Hebrews 3 — comes from the heart. The late J. I. Packer writes, The human heart is the controlling source of all that we do in expression of what we are: all our thoughts, desires, discernments and decisions, our plans and purposes, our affections, attitudes and ambitions, all the wisdom and all the folly that mark our lives, come out of, and are fueled, serviced, and driven by, our hearts, for better or for worse. (8) What Packer says here lines up with what Solomon tells us in Proverbs 4:23, “Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.” In the late 1600s, there was a Puritan named John Flavel who wrote a little book based on that one verse in Proverbs. Because the Bible tells us the heart is super important and pretty much determines everything that matters, and because it's our hearts that God sees and cares most about, Flavel says, “The keeping and right managing of the heart in every condition, is the one great business of a Christian's life.” The writer of Hebrews would say the same thing. The warning in this passage is focused on the heart. Watch out that your heart not become an evil, unbelieving heart. The Connection Between 12 and 13In what way exactly do we do that? How do we “watch out” or “take care”?Well, I think verse 13 gets there. Verse 13 gives us a second command with the same purpose we see in verse 12. Verse 13, “But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” so that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.” And when he says that word “hardened” he's implying the heart. Now listen to a paraphrase of the commands in both verses.Verse 12 says: Watch out so that your heart not become an evil, unbelieving heart.Verse 13 says: But exhort one another so that none of your hearts may be hardened. We can hear the similarity, but now what's the relationship between these two verses? They're connected by the conjunction “but” in verse 13, and most of the time we'd expect “but” to mark a contrast, like “Don't do this, but do this.” That's not the way it functions here though! Verse 13 is not telling us something entirely different from verse 12. It's actually a restatement of verse 12, except verse 13 is explaining or developing verse 12 a little more.In particular, verse 13 develops the command to “Take care” and the danger of an unbelieving heart.I want you to see this. Start with the danger. The Hardened HeartAn evil, unbelieving heart in verse 12 is called a heart hardened by the deceitfulness of sin in verse 13. And I'm interested in those descriptions. Is an unbelieving heart and a hardened heart describing the same condition? Or might one come before the other?Well this text here isn't conclusive on this question, but it raises the question! And if we look closer at this word “harden” we see this verb show up a couple more times in the New Testament. Romans 9:18, “So then he [God] has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he wills.” Acts 19:9, speaking of Paul's ministry, “But when some [the people Paul was preaching to] became stubborn and continued in unbelief, speaking evil of the Way before the congregation, he withdrew from them and took the disciples with him …” Both verses have the same verb translated “harden” and “became stubborn.” And they're both connected to unbelief, and that connection, theologically, is that this hardening is the process by which the heart becomes and stays unbelieving. That's how Luke uses it in Acts 19. The stubborn or hardened heart is the heart that continues in unbelief. An unbelieving heart starts and stays unbelieving by the heart being hardened. Which means, if you want to avoid an unbelieving heart (verse 12) then avoid a hardened heart (verse 13). The heart that is hardened is the heart incapable of faith.This is obvious in the promise of the New Covenant. Remember that the people of Israel were faithless. They could not trust God. So in order for them to believe — in order for any of us to have faith in God — God must give us new hearts! And that is the promise of the New Covenant that Moses foretold in Deuteronomy 30, and it's what the prophets declared, Jeremiah 31, Ezekiel 36 — our only hope of trusting in Jesus is if God changes us here, in the heart.But now here's a question: if it's God who must give us new hearts, how does it work that we're supposed to watch out for our hearts? Does this mean that God gives us new hearts but then it's all up to us to take care of them? How's this work?I think the second command in verse 13 helps us. Exhort One AnotherIt's the command to “exhort one another” everyday. That develops the command to “watch out.” It's the positive side of the warning. We should watch out that we don't have an unbelieving heart — and how? In what way do we watch out for our hearts? We do it by exhorting one another.And that word “exhort” is important. The original word has a range of meaning; it's used a few different ways in the New Testament, but the meaning here in Hebrews 3 is to encourage.It means to encourage or to give comfort or to give consoling help — and it is always in reference to the saving work of God. That's what biblical encouragement is. This is not generic expressions of kindness. “Hey, nice shoes! Hey, great job on that thing!” Those are all fine and good to say to each other — and we should; we should be kind to one another — but the command in verse 13 to exhort or to encourage means to speak words of comfort and help to another about God.Remember this encouragement is the antidote to a hardened heart. What keeps the heart from being hardened? What keeps us from unbelief? It's remembering the truth of what God has done. It's remembering who he is. And this remembering happens through our telling one another.This is amazing!God is the one who, by his grace, gives us new hearts, and we're each commanded to watch out for our hearts, and that watchfulness we're commanded to is an action that God intends to happen through the means of us encouraging one another in his salvation.The creation of our new hearts is the work of God, and the keeping of our new hearts is the work of God through the means of the church's life together.Do we have any idea about the profound obligations we have to one another?The way that God has designed to keep my heart and sustain my faith is through you. The way that God has designed to sustain your faith is through the people sitting around you.And it's not complicated. We simply encourage one another. Tell your brother, tell your sister, that God loves them. I want so badly for us to be a church marked by encouragement. I want it just to be how we live together, how we interact with with one another. We remind one another of who God is and what he's done. We remind one another that God is in control and that God is good. We assure one another that God loves us, and that he's for us, and that he knows what you need before you even ask it, and if he takes care of the birds of the air he's gonna take care of you. In fact, God only always wields his sovereign power for your eternal good. I wanna tell you that. We are commanded to tell one another that. Because that is the way God keeps us.So we come to Hebrews 3 and see the warning flags. The danger applies to everyone. And so does the command to encourage. This is for all of us.And that's what brings us to the Table. The TableThe Lord's Table is the big reminder every week of what God has done. The bread and the cup remind us of the death of Jesus for us, and we remember him together. We eat and we drink at this Table together, as we're doing that, we're believing and encouraging one another in our great salvation.So for all who are here who believe in Jesus, this Table is for us.

Podcast 259 TEAM-CBT for Eating Disorders, featuring Donna Fish In today's podcast, Rhonda and David are delighted to welcome Donna Fish, LCSW, a New York mental health professional who's doing pioneering work applying TEAM-CBT to eating disorders such as overeating / obesity, binging and vomiting (bulimia), and anorexia nervosa (starving oneself in combination with excessive exercising). These problems appear to be more prevalent in modern society, perhaps because of the emphasis on physical beauty as well as the availability of fattening foods and the financial resources to purchase them. Donna is an LCSW and Level 4 TEAM-CBT therapist. She is a guest lecturer on eating disorders at Columbia University and Harvard University, and author of Take the Fight Out of Food. She has been a popular guest on many radio and television shows, writes for Psychology Today magazine, and more. Donna began the interview on a personal note, reflecting on one of Dr. Burns' workshops in 2014. She volunteered for a role-play with David illustrating the Externalization of Voices, a powerful cognitive therapy technique David developed during the mid-1970s. That experience pointed Donna in the direction of learning more TEAM-CBT. Here's how she described her experience at the workshop: It blew my mind! I don't easily follow any one particular ‘school of therapy, but I joined a TEAM-CBT training group that Dr. Taylor Chesney had just begun in NYC and then continued my online training until this day! I am thrilled to combine my eating disorder training and experience with the TEAM approach, and have been training therapists at Elise Munoz's Feeling Good Center in NYC, so that they can use TEAM with the common problem of Binge/Restricting. Donna started her career as a professional dancer, and struggled with her own eating and body image issues. She saw these problems in her many peers and colleagues working as performers as well. She said: I was always on a diet, and saw foods as “good” or “bad.” I would restrict (fasting) during the week and then binge on all the “bad” foods on weekends. My life was a yo-yo of binging and restricting. Later, I taught myself how to eat in a healthy way, and how to say, “Yes, I can have that food and I can have it right now if I want it (which I do). But do I really need it right now?” This simple change in how I talked to myself freed me and cured me! When I became more accepting and less rigid in my “eating rules,” I paradoxically began to feel happier and more in control. I saw so many actors and dancers who used up tremendous amounts of emotional energy struggling with body image issues and problems with eating. That's why I did a 3-year training program in working with eating disorders. When some of my patients who had recovered became pregnant, they worried about giving their own children an eating disorder. That's why I wrote my book incorporating the methods that had been so helpful to them. This included a 4 Step Program to help them to give their kids a healthier relationship for life. These are the four steps: Step One: Talk To Your Kids About Nutrition Step Two: Reboot the Connection Between the Belly and the Head Step Three: Separate Hunger and Fullness from Other Feelings Step Four: Teach Your Child Skills and Develop Confidence in Decision Making I incorporated many of the ideas and techniques in TEAM-CBT, including Dr. Burns' Decision-Making Tool, as well as his “Addiction and Habit Log.” (link to the free chapters on these tools available on the home page of my website). Donna emphasized the role of restricting in the maintenance of eating disorders. She explained that restricting and fasting actually cause and perpetuate the problem because the cognitions become ‘Tempting Thoughts' to binge such as: “I will definitely re start my diet tomorrow, and I won't eat that cake that I shouldn't have had, so I may as well eat more now since I've already blown it.” She explained: If you commit to having a piece of that cake tomorrow as well, and in fact every single day, you are less vulnerable to the Tempting Thought of “I won't have that ‘bad food' tomorrow' which tempts you to eat the cake, and then every other food that you ‘won't eat tomorrow or again', since you've already had a piece. In fact, learning how to eat a piece of cake, or whatever food you deem ‘bad,' is imperative to learning how to eat well and balanced in order to modulate your weight. The Tempting Thought that you will Restrict Tomorrow, seduces you to binge. The Focus needs to be on Reducing the Tempting Thoughts to Restrict!  A Method like ‘Examine the Evidence' can be used to see if Thoughts like:  “I won't eat tomorrow or have that food again,” evolve into Tempting Thoughts that promote the 'binge' in that moment of temptation, and it becomes a circular game of ‘Restrict/Binge'. Donna described some of the dangerous medical consequences of restricting and severe weight loss that you see in young people with anorexia, including brain shrinkage. She said that parents are sometimes ambivalent about treating their children who have anorexia for a variety of reasons, including the fact that anorexic teenagers are typically perfectionistic high achievers. But when the parents learn about the medical consequences, it sometimes changes their thinking. David adds that two parents will frequently be in conflict about the best way to deal with any problem in a child, and this conflict is nearly always the cause of the “stuckness.” When, and if, the parents decide to work together as a team, the problem nearly always improves significantly. This, in fact, is the whole idea behind the fairly successful “coercive treatment” for anorexia nervosa pioneered at the Maudsley in England. This program involves both parents sitting on the two sides of the child, and forcing him or her to eat, and not giving in to the child's attempt to manipulate and insist that she or he cannot, or will not, eat. Although the program sounds crude, and most parents initially resist, this type of forceful intervention is effective for roughly 50% of the children with anorexia nervosa, and can be life-saving. This is critical since a significant proportion of these children ultimately die from anorexia nervosa if they don't have effective treatment. Donna described additional medical consequences of various eating disorders, as well as the cycle of binging and vomiting, which leads to dehydration and actually causes the patient to feel bloated. One of the key cognitions in patients with bulimia and anorexia is the fear of losing control and gaining a great deal of weight, so they engage in many ritualistic activities in an attempt to gain control. However, most of these efforts actually trigger a loss of control. One of the main goals of Donna's treatment is to change this rigid mind set which is the actual cause of the eating disorder. Donna emphasize the importance of the TEAM-Therapist's mind set as well: I don't need any of my patients to change. . . The use of paradox in TEAM is powerful. I work with my patient to list the many GOOD reasons for overeating. Donna described how she integrates the tools and strategies of TEAM into her brilliant work with patients with eating disorders, including David's Triple Paradox technique. David described the Triple Paradox, which is one of the latest tools he has developed for any habit or addiction, including the eating disorders. If you'd like two never-published chapters on these tools, you will find a free offer for them on the very bottom of my home page at feelinggood.com! These two chapters were originally intended for my book, Feeling Great, but removed due to length. They are intended for therapists and the general public alike. Donna also uses the Brief Mood Survey, testing patient's moods at the start and end of every therapy session, along with the Assessment of Resistance, the Miracle Cure question, Dangling the Carrot, and more. She also emphasized the vitally important “fractal” concept, focusing on one specific moment when the patient wants help. The idea is that all the patient's suffering will be encapsulated in one brief moment when the patient was struggling, and the solution in that brief moment will often be the solution to all of the patient's suffering. If you would like to contact Donna, you can email her at Donna@DonnaFish.com, or visit her website, www:DonnaFish.com. Thanks for listening today! And thank you, Donna, for illuminating how we can use TEAM-CBT in our work with individuals who are struggling with eating and body image problems. I was personally impressed with Donna, not only for her obvious and impressive mastery of the treatment of eating disorders, but also for her warmth, grace, and vulnerability, which will definitely inspire trust and positive expectations in her many patients!

Girl Boner – A Story of Empowerment My guest is August McLaughlin. She is a celebrated health and sexuality writer, the creator of Girl Boner, wrote a book with the same name, and is a fellow podcaster! As she states during the talk, her experience with sexual education was very lacking and lopsided. From an early age, she was prepared for the terrifying world of cramps and bleeding without mention of the empowering sexual satisfaction that women can experience. This would lead to her investigating sex on her own terms, and in turn, she has empowered countless women through her work. She talks about how working in the modeling industry-led an eating disorder, how she discovered masturbation, the way toward empowerment, and much more! Connection Between her Sexual Shame and Eventual Healing August says that it's hard to separate how we feel about our bodies and our emotional selves. If we don't really talk about our genitalia and sex is considered taboo, we aren't able to awaken the empowerment within ourselves. As August went through her eating disorder while she was doing modeling work, she also realized that an underlying cause for her not being sexually empowered was the sexual shame she carried around with her. She says that therapy certainly helped, but she was still not addressing the root of her problem. She says that a turning point in her transformation was that she started getting uncharacteristically angry. She would get sad, frustrated, and angry with herself. She realized that, as a woman, she was taught not to access her sexuality. August also realized that she didn't know much about her own anatomy. She said she was having pleasurable sex at this point, but it became something else entirely when she connected with her body and felt empowered. Masturbation as a Turning Point August said that for the majority of her life, she had been more inclined to participate in intercourse than outercourse. She said that external stimulation had never really done anything for her, and besides, there had always been a layer of shame surrounding the act itself. It wasn't until she revisited masturbation with a new perspective that it eventually opened up her eyes to more empowerment. She says that she switched careers. August was a full-time writer, she was in a monogamous relationship, and one day while her partner was traveling work, she was confronted with a desire for sex and no outlet for it. That was when she tried masturbation. August was 30 years old at this point. On the night she discovered the empowerment of masturbation, she was so excited she called her partner and told him that she had achieved an orgasm on her own! For more on this, listen to August tell the story in her own words. The “Girl Boner” Origin and Mission After the orgasm that changed her life, she applied for the trademark on the term ‘girl boner'. The term itself has multiple meanings for August. It's a humorous term she used in grade school, it stands for sexual potency and empowerment, and it's one of those titles that gets your attention right away. How Journaling has Helped August While she was freewriting and journaling, a lot was coming out about her acting career and her sexual insecurities. She thinks it's a very powerful tool for unearthing inner sexual desires and to help with fostering curiosity. It also helps you to approach a difficult or awkward sexual subject and get closer to it in a much more comfortable way.

Economic Value Added (EVA) is a little-known, but impressively effective measure to boost your profitability. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b317Ifo_2kI Coca-Cola, AT&T, Quaker Oats, CSX, and Briggs and Stratton helped the term rise to prominence when they adopted economic profit, or EVA, in the 80s and 90s.  Focus on this insightful accounting measure resulted in an overwhelming increase in business value, stock price, and profits. Because of attention to increasing EVA, Quaker Oats shifted their production schedule. Rather than using big sales promotions to spike production at each quarter's end, they leveled out with more consistent production.  Then, instead of requiring large warehouse volume they more efficiently used their real estate, by stocking more consistently. With fewer warehouses and staff, they reduced costs. This put their company on the map as they launched into long-term sustainability. CSX implemented Economic Value Added by shrinking labor and fuel costs, along with the number of containers, trailers and locomotive fleet. At the same time, they boosted freight volume, significantly enhancing profits.  In each case, the shift to improving EVA had more invested capital working harder, more of the time.
