JUNE 8 | II The Authority of the King | Mark 2:13-28 Once again Jesus went out beside the lake. A large crowd came tohim, and he began to teach them. As he walked along, he saw Levi son ofAlphaeus sitting at the tax collector's booth. “Follow me,” Jesus told him, andLevi got up and followed him. While Jesus was having dinner at Levi's house, many taxcollectors and sinners were eating with him and his disciples, for there weremany who followed him. When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw himeating with the sinners and tax collectors, they asked his disciples: “Why doeshe eat with tax collectors and sinners?” On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy whoneed a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, butsinners.” Now John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting. Some peoplecame and asked Jesus, “How is it that John's disciples and the disciples of thePharisees are fasting, but yours are not?” Jesus answered, “How can the guests of the bridegroom fast whilehe is with them? They cannot, so long as they have him with them. But the timewill come when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and on that day theywill fast. “No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment.Otherwise, the new piece will pull away from the old, making the tear worse.And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burstthe skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pournew wine into new wineskins.” One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and as hisdisciples walked along, they began to pick some heads of grain. The Phariseessaid to him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?” He answered, “Have you never read what David did when he and hiscompanions were hungry and in need? In the days of Abiathar the high priest, heentered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which is lawful onlyfor priests to eat. And he also gave some to his companions.” Then he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man forthe Sabbath. So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”

MAY 25 | Prayer, Preaching, and Purpose | Mark 1:35-45Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed. Simon and his companions went to look for him, and when they found him, they exclaimed: “Everyone is looking for you!”Jesus replied, “Let us go somewhere else—to the nearby villages—so I can preach there also. That is why I have come.” So he traveled throughout Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees, “If you are willing, you can make me clean.” Jesus was indignant. He reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cleansed. Jesus sent him away at once with a strong warning: “See that you don't tell this to anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.” Instead he went out and began to talk freely, spreading the news. As a result, Jesus could no longer enter a town openly but stayed outside in lonely places. Yet the people still came to him from everywhere.

APRIL 18 | Reconciled In Him | Romans 5:6-11 ... You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him! For if, while we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

Part 1:We talk with Corey Johnson, who writes for ProPublica.We discuss Cambridge Analytica, who accessed intimate data about gun owners from various sources to provide to create profiles to use as information to tailor messages to potential voters during the 2016 election cycle. In addition, the kind of analysis that was done, after Cambridge Analytica went out of business continues to be used to target voters in various districts and states. The targeting can thus be very focused. It is important to note that DOGE is reviewing ALL data about all Americans through the various agencies that it is 'reviewing'.Part 2:We talk with Justin Peters, who writes for Slate.com.We discuss with Mr. Peters the myth of the "good billionaire" in the context of Jeff Bezos' actions with respect to the Washington Post. What does Bezos want to accomplish, and why? Consider if we are back to the "gilded age". Music: From David Rovics, “The Richest Man in the World Says So”, 2025
MATTHEW 6:19-21 | Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

MARK 10:35-45 | Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him. “Teacher,” they said, “we want you to do for us whatever we ask.”“What do you want me to do for you?”, He asked.They replied, “Let one of us sit at your right and the other at your left in your glory.”“You don't know what you are asking,” Jesus said. “Can you drink the cup I drink or be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with?”“We can,” they answered.Jesus said to them, “You will drink the cup I drink and be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with, but to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant. These places belong to those for whom they have been prepared.”When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John. Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

I have a background in music–classically trained in violin and viola–and that informs the way I go about some of the more technical things I do. It opens me up to endless possibilities.Sustainable living shouldn't be a luxury—it should be the standard. That's the driving philosophy behind Corey Johnson's innovative real estate development project, NEIGHBR. Corey, the founder and CEO of NEIGHBR, is pioneering a bold new approach to housing that integrates sustainability, affordability, and a resort-style community experience."We like to build spaces that positively impact our community and really serve as a prototype for the future of sustainable living," Corey told me in this episode. His development firm isn't just creating housing—it's showcasing what's possible when cutting-edge technology, biophilic design, and eco-conscious infrastructure come together.At the heart of NEIGHBR's vision is an eco-village concept that fuses sustainability with affordability. The project features tiny homes, geodomes, on-site farming, and commercial spaces, all built with renewable energy sources and water conservation systems. “We're using solar, geothermal, rainwater harvesting, on-site composting, and a farmhouse that fosters a circular economy,” Corey explained.What makes NEIGHBR truly unique is its reimagining of financial accessibility in housing. By leveraging investment crowdfunding, Corey is inviting everyday people to be part of the journey from the very beginning. “What I love about this approach is that it allows people to feel like they've been along for the journey,” he said. “I like to believe that those early investors will really be some of our earliest residents.”NEIGHBR is currently raising capital through Funding Hope, an investment platform aligned with the United Nations' sustainable development goals. For Corey, choosing Funding Hope was intentional: “We're after positively impacting the climate. We're about making people better. And Funding Hope shares that mission.”The first NEIGHBR eco-village will take root in Atlanta, Georgia, with plans for rapid expansion nationwide. With a vision to scale sustainable communities across the country, Corey and his team are laying the foundation for a new model of housing—one that isn't just environmentally responsible but also socially transformative.To learn more about NEIGHBR and explore investment opportunities, visit s4g.biz/neighbr.tl;dr:* Corey Johnson's NEIGHBR project is reimagining sustainable housing with eco-friendly, affordable, and community-focused designs.* NEIGHBR integrates renewable energy, biophilic architecture, and financial accessibility to create resort-style eco-villages.* Corey leverages investment crowdfunding through Funding Hope, inviting the public to participate in the project's growth.* Corey's superpower, "artistic engineering," blends technical precision with creative vision to build transformative spaces.* Through innovation and community engagement, NEIGHBR aims to scale sustainable living across the nation, redefining housing for future generations.How to Develop Artistic Engineering As a SuperpowerCorey describes his superpower as "artistic engineering." Rooted in both his background in civil engineering and his classical training in violin and viola, Corey fuses technical precision with creative vision. "I almost feel like I'm Dr. Strange, who can just grab all types of different ideas and actually pull them into reality," he explained. By balancing analytical problem-solving with artistic expression, Corey designs spaces that are not only functional but also deeply engaging and transformative.Corey exemplified his superpower when designing and building a wellness facility in Atlanta. While ensuring the structure met technical and regulatory standards, he infused the space with biophilic elements, including a koi pond, to foster a sense of tranquility. "We can solve real-world problems, but if something doesn't feel good to the human soul when they interact with it, that can be a challenge," he said. His ability to merge aesthetics with engineering created a space that left visitors in awe, proving that artistic engineering can elevate both form and function.Tips for Developing Artistic Engineering:* Embrace Both Logic and Creativity: Don't limit yourself to one way of thinking—tap into both analytical and imaginative processes.* Immerse Yourself in Music: Corey believes listening to classical compositions enhances problem-solving and fosters a deeper understanding of complexity.* Stay Open to Possibilities: Approach challenges with a mindset that solutions can come from unexpected places.* Prioritize Humanity in Design: Consider the emotional and sensory experience of the spaces and products you create.* Observe Nature's Balance: Nature seamlessly integrates structure and beauty—use it as inspiration for your own projects.By following Corey Johnson's example and advice, you can make artistic engineering a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileCorey Johnson (he/him):CEO, Founder, NEIGHBRAbout NEIGHBR: NEIGHBR is a world-building organization dedicated to creating spaces that enhance the human experience at scale.

LUKE 5:15-16 NIV - Yet the news about him spread all the more, so that crowds of people came to hear him and to be healed of their sicknesses. But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.

MATTHEW 6:16-18 NIV - “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you."

1 Peter 2:4-6 NIV | As you come to Him, the living Stone—rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to Him— you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. For in Scripture it says: “See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone, and the one who trusts in Him will never be put to shame.”

On this episode, I spoke to editor Hansjörg Weißbrich about his work on September 5. Weißbrich has been nominated for a Critics Choice Award and Independent Spirit Award for his work on the film. He tied for the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award for Best Editing. Co-Written and Directed by Tim Fehlbaum, September 5 stars Peter Sarsgaard, John Magaro, Ben Chaplin, Leonie Benesch, Zinedine Soualem, Georgina Rich, Corey Johnson, Marcus Rutherford, Daniel Adeosun, Benjamin Walker, Ferdinand Dörfler. September 5 unveils the decisive moment that forever changed media coverage and continues to impact live news today. Set during the 1972 Munich Summer Olympics, the film follows the ABC Sports broadcasting team who quickly shifted from sports reporting to live coverage of the Israeli athletes taken hostage. Through this lens, September 5 provides an important perspective on the live broadcast seen globally by millions of people at the time.
JOHN 15:4-8 NIV | Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.

PSALM 1:1-3 NIV | Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers.

MATTHEW 2:1-12 | After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.” When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. When he had called together all the people's chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born. “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written: “‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.'” Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared. He sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.” After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.

1 JOHN 4:7-12 | Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
