Revisiting Psalm 23: An Interdisciplinary Perspective © 2026 .mp3Abstract OverviewPsalm 23 is more than its poetic simplicity might suggest. Beneath its tranquil verses lie profound theological insights, literary artistry, layered cultural significance, and deep spiritual comfort. Existing biblical scholarship has long praised these aspects (Brueggemann, 2014; Goldingay, 2006), yet my approach adds a fresh lens by integrating perspectives from publishing, cinematography, photojournalism, and communication theory. This broad interdisciplinary engagement reveals how Psalm 23 communicates enduring truths in ways that resonate powerfully with contemporary audiences through various artistic and media forms.Dr. William Anderson Gittens, Doctor of Divinity, Podcast 302 Revisiting Psalm 23: An Interdisciplinary Perspective By Dr. William Anderson Gittens, D.D.© 2026 ISBN 978-976-97997-0-7 Devgro Media Arts Services Publishing®2015 In collaboration with iMovie present Podcast 302 Revisiting Psalm 23: An Interdisciplinary Perspective By Dr. William Anderson Gittens, D.D.© 2026 ISBN 978-976-97997-0-7RECOGNITIONSAs I take a moment to reflect on my journey, I am filled with profound gratitude for the Creator's guiding hand that has led me every step of the way. Life has brought me countless blessings, and at the forefront of these blessings is the immeasurable debt of thanks I owe to my late parents, Charles and Ira Gittens. They bestowed upon me their wisdom and creative spirit, which have been a consistent source of inspiration throughout my life. Their counsel and encouragement continue to resonate within me, shaping my path and purpose. To my beloved wife, Magnola Gittens, your unwavering support has been my anchor in turbulent seas. Your love and understanding provide the strength necessary to navigate life's complexities. I am eternally grateful for your presence, which comforts and uplifts me. To my brothers—Shurland, Charles, Ricardo, and my late brothers Arnott and Stephen—as well as my sisters, Emerald, Marcella, and Cheryl, thank you for being my steadfast companions along this journey. Each of you has contributed uniquely to my narrative, reminding me of the importance of family ties in shaping who I am today. I extend my heartfelt appreciation to my cousins: Joy Mayers, Kevin and Ernest Mayers, Donna Archer, Avis Dyer, and Jackie Clarke. Your love and camaraderie have enriched my life beyond measure. To my uncles, Clifford, Leonard Mayers, David Bruce, and Collin Rock, your support has been invaluable, strengthening the bonds of our family. To my children, Laron and Lisa, grandson Elijah you are my pride and joy, the motivation behind my work, fuelling my desire to create and inspire.Moreover, I am equally grateful to all who have believed in me and wanted nothing but the best for my growth. Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Platizky, Mr. Matthew Sutton, Mr. Juan Arroyo, Mr. and Mrs. David Lavine, and many others have played pivotal roles in my development, encouraging me to pursue my passions relentlessly. During my time at New Jersey City University (NJCU), I had the privilege of receiving guidance from exceptional mentors, including the late Dr. Joseph Drew, Merline Mayers, Mrs. Ellen Gordon, Dr. Nicholas Gordon, Rev. Dr. Scofield Eversley BSS, and many others. Conversations about enhancing my writing skills after graduating were integral to my growth, providing the foundation for my future endeavours. Over the past three decades, my experiences in the leisure activities industry have significantly shaped my journey. From 1995 to 2026, I have devoted myself to writing, resulting in 474 E-Publications and 302 podcasts that resonate within the community. In recognition of the profound impact Dr. Joseph Drew had on my academic and personal development, I dedicated my 66th publication, "A Tribute to Culture" Vol. 1, to him—a small token of gratitude for his enormous influence on my life.As I look forward to what lies ahead, I remain thankful to all who have contributed to my story and to the Creator for the endless possibilities this journey holds. Each person's presence has left an indelible mark on my life, guiding me toward a future filled with hope and potential.Dr. William Anderson Gittens, D.D. ReferencesAlter, R. (2007).

Hi listeners. It's that time of year when we all take a few of those precious moments between the holidays and starting the New Year to look back, plan ahead, and savor those moments before heading back to work. This is the final DiepCJourney® podcast of 2025 and I decided to go solo for the first time since beginning this podcast during the pandemic in January of 2021. Let's take a look back at what we have provided courtesy of my outstanding guests. I always say, a podcast is only as good as its guests, and I am so lucky to have met them via my podcast and many I have met in person. When I had my first podcast with Dr. C in January of 2021, we had been working together in this patient education advocacy space for six years. That number has now rolled over to 11 years working together and he has been a cherished guest on so many topics on the podcast. Since that first podcast in January of 2021, I have interviewed surgeons, both microsurgeons and breasts surgeons from across the world. Thank you to each of you for providing such valuable information to the listeners of the podcast. I set this podcast up originally as a stand-alone platform but now because of changes in social media platforms I am able to share most of the podcast over on the DiepCFoundation YouTube channel. You can find them on the channel listed as Podcasts if you'd like to watch them and actually see my guests. It's a fun alternative and really what some followers like over listening to the podcast. With a niche podcast like this, my priority is creating content that truly serves the community—not chasing numbers. In a space as specific as breast reconstruction, I measure success by connection and education rather than statistics. The beauty of a niche podcast is that it reaches exactly who needs it most, so I focus on value over metrics. Last year in January we kicked off the year with my friend Rory Zura of Foobs and Fitness. Understanding and knowing the research behind the benefits of exercise for breast cancer patients is so important and a topic that is asked about often. Thanks Rory! She is a survivor with her own unique story. Patients stories matter to many, not only other patients, but healthcare professionals who can improve their communication and protocols for patients based on patient stories. One of the most listened to podcast of 2025 was from Margaret Tueller Proffit, a young BRCA genetic mutation carrier who started her reconstruction with implants, transitioned to DIEP flap and then graced us with the conclusion of her reconstruction by sharing one of the best quotes I heard from a patient all year, "Go forth with confidence"! Sensation of the breast always gets a lot of listeners. Our interview with Dr. Lisa Hunsicker was popular. We tackled diastasis recti and why to repair it during DIEP with Dr. Kesley McClure of Southwest Breast and Aesthetics and found out what other procedures are performed in Phoenix at their facility with her colleague, Dr. Arvind Gowda. Dr. Craigie shared a very interesting interview with us on the delay procedure, the SIEA, and the TDAP. These alternative methods of using a patients own tissue are very important for patients who don't always find this information easily. Nipple reconstruction with Dr. Carpenter at PRMA came out of an in-person meeting we had at a microsurgery summit I attended. Thanks Dr. Carpenter for your warm smile and willingness to spend time with me to educate our audience. I invite each of you listening to use the search engine to explore all the topics we have talked about with my guest on the link I'll provide at the end of the episode details. Libsyn has been a great podcast platform for us to use so a shout out to them! As part of the resources we provide at DiepCFoundation, this podcast being one of them, we also have the DiepCFoundation YouTube channel I mentioned earlier and the DiepCJourney® blog. I want to leave you with a message from an end of the year blog I wrote just a couple of days ago. Here is the link to read the entire blog. https://diepcjourney.com/kindness-gratitude-courage-my-compass-for-2026/ Here is what I wrote: As I step into 2026, I find myself returning again and again to three simple words. Those words are kindness, gratitude, and courage. They aren't new concepts. They aren't complicated. But they have become the compass points guiding how I want to show up in the world, how I want to lead, and how I want to serve the breast cancer community that has shaped my life in ways I never could have imagined. These three words have carried me through seasons of uncertainty, moments of profound connection, and the quiet, steady work of advocacy. They have grounded me when the world felt heavy and lifted me when I needed reminding that hope is not naïve. Hope is necessary. And as I look toward the year ahead, they feel more necessary than ever. Here's to a year guided by purpose, connection, and the quiet strength that lives within us all. I cannot wait for you to listen to our guests in 2026, our sixth season. Thank you for listening and being a part of the Journey!

“The Man-Trap” by Hamilton Craigie, first snapped its leaves in the November 1925 edition of Weird Tales Magazine. The tale was described as follows: “A monstrous plant makes its kill.”

There are many acronyms, terms, and procedures patients hear either in consultation with their plastic surgeon or online through various social media groups and platforms. Our guest on this edition of the DiepCJourney podcast is a board-certified microsurgeon who will help us sort out three of those terms today. The delay procedure, SIEA, and TDAP in breast reconstruction surgery. We appreciate everyone who is utilizing the DiepCFoundation resources. Be sure to click here for the video interview with my guest at the DiepCFoundation YouTube channel. I am joined by Dr. James Craigie, who specializes and is trained in microsurgery. The primary focus at his practice at The Center for Natural Breast Reconstruction in Mt. Pleasant, SC, is performing complex breast reconstruction procedures which we will discuss in this interview. I want to highlight that Dr. Craigie works with a team of microsurgeons practicing the co-surgeon model in breast reconstruction surgery. To learn more about the benefits of the co-surgeon model check out a previous episode of the DiepCJourney podcast by clicking here. At the Foundation, our focus is to provide accurate information to our listeners and why I ask Dr. Craigie to join us to discuss specific procedures in this interview. The paper I reference in the interview on the value of the co-surgeon model in breast reconstruction can be found and read by clicking here.

Canada is experiencing a housing shortage. Although house prices in major Canadian cities appeared to have topped out, new housing isn't coming onto the market quickly enough. Higher interest rates have only tightened the pressure on buyers, and renters, too, as rising mortgage rates cost landlords more, which are passed along to tenants in rent increases. Even with recent federal budget commitments to bring more housing online by 2030, there will still be a shortfall of 3.5 million homes by then. Gregor Craigie is a CBC journalist in Victoria, one of the highest-priced housing markets in the country. On his daily radio show On The Island he's been talking for over 17 years to local experts and to those across the country about housing. Craigie has travelled to many of the places he profiles in the book, and in his interviews with Canadians he presents the human face of the shortfall as he speaks with renters, owners and homeless people, exploring their varying predicaments and perspectives. He then shows, through comparable profiles of people across the globe, how other North American and international jurisdictions (Tokyo, Paris, Berlin, Helsinki, Singapore, Ireland, to name a few) are housing their citizens better, faster and with determination—solutions that could be put into practice here. With passion, knowledge and vigour, Craigie explains how Canada reached this critical impasse and will convince those who may not yet recognize how badly our entire country is in need of change. Our Crumbling Foundation provides hope for finding our way out of the crisis by recommending a number of approaches at all levels of government. The prescription for how we're going to house ourselves, and do so equitably, requires not just a business solution, nor simply a social solution, but rather a combination of both, working hand-in-hand with all levels of government, and quickly, in order to catch up with and outpace the needs of Canadians in this ever-intensifying crisis over a basic human right. Gregor Craigie is the host of On The Island on CBC Radio One in Victoria. He is also the author of the nonfiction work On Borrowed Time: North America's Next Big Quake and the Radio Jet Lag. Alex Hallbom is a Registered Professional Planner in British Columbia, Canada. He sits on the editorial board of Plan Canada, the professional publication for planners in Canada, and publishes periodically in Plan Canada and Planning West. Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode 285: As I say in the opening of this week's show, it's one thing to get applause for your songs, and it's another to get laughs. John Craigie of Portland, OR has quietly built a robust touring career because he's an excellent songwriter who also keeps his audiences in stitches between songs. His newest album is a collaboration called Pagan Church with TK and the Holy Know-Nothings, the Portland band fronted by admired songwriter Taylor Kingman. We talk about how Craigie developed his stagecraft under the influence of artists like Arlo Guthrie and his friend Todd Snider, as well as his unlikely path to performing while getting a math degree in California. No surprise, it's a lot of fun. Also in the hour, Dave Wilson and John Teer reflect on 25 years as Chatham County Line and the new directions baked into the new album Hiyo.

A new study into Kiwis' meat-eating habits shows 9 in 10 of us are still meat eaters. New Zealanders seem to gravitate towards chicken over red meat, with chicken accounting for about a third of meals within an average week, compared with beef at 22 per cent - and taste and price are the top factors in purchasing decisions. AG Research senior scientist Cameron Craigie joined Mike Hosking to discuss the findings. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're joined this week by Brendon Craigie, founder of Tyto PR. Tyto is an international PR agency, and much like Bospar, has operated as a remote agency even before COVID. So what made Brendon decide to build a fully remote company? He knew he could create a better way of running a business. He also found that the best way to make his employees care is to give them power, or a pride of ownership. Tyto has employees all over the world -- across the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Bulgaria -- and that's the case because he loves the recruiting process, meeting new people with bright minds from every corner of the globe. For more insights on preparing for the recession, what people are talking about (hint: AI & Machine Learning), and what it takes to build, empower and retain a great team, watch Brendon's episode of Politely Pushy.

Oh and you bet there needs to be employees now! Very interesting story with 3 of Scotland's best Agvocates

For additional notes and resources check out Douglas' website.The book concludes with good news (9:11-15)."The words of Amos burst upon the landscape of the Northern kingdom, Israel, with all the terror and surprise of a lion's roar. Though their main targets were the palaces of Samaria and the shrines at Bethel and Gilgal, the prophet's words were to resound throughout Israel's entire landscape leaving no part nor person unscathed" (Tyndale commentary, p.87).But the message of doom is followed by a message of hope.Gospel! "[Yahweh] committed himself to Jacob's descendants long before they committed themselves to him” (Hubbard 236).Most books of prophecy alternate judgment and restoration oracles, but not Amos.The people will return.Reversals are a major theme of AmosDays are coming (v. that day – 2:16, 5:18ff, 8:3,9,13).Falling/rising (5:2, 8:14).Walls closed up/open.Hunger/harvest.People of God under grace > under judgment.See how many more you can find...The return would take place in the Persian Period.Assyrian exile -- from 722 BC.Babylonian exile -- 605, 597 BC, and fall of Jerusalem in 587/586 BC.Persian period -- Babylon falls 539 BC. Cyrus decrees return of Jews, 539/538. See Isaiah 44, 45, 2 Chronicles 36, and Ezra 1.Greek period -- Persia falls in the 300s. By 333 Persian rules the land of Israel.Roman period -- in 63 BC the Romans march into Israel.The punishment comes to an end. God is good!The fallen tent will be rebuilt.This vision was not fulfilled in 1948, but in 49 AD. Amos 9:11 is fulfilled in the church of Christ, particularly through its Gentile mission, according to Acts 15:16. In Joshua 21:43 the land promised to Abraham (Genesis 12) was received, and during the reign of David and Solomon its borders reached their maximum. After the exile, the Lord brought the people back to their land -- in 539 BC. Now if there was a secondary fulfillment, according to James in Acts 15, it was in the first century, not in the political events of the Zionist movement and the mid-20th century.The restoration of the land does not refer to modern Israel, formed by Zionists (many of whom are atheists…). Orthodox Jews today insist that the restoration to the land will take place only when Messiah comes.The purpose of the rebuilding includes all the nations (as in 9:7 and Revelation 7:9).The plowman will overtake the reaper.Plowing/reaping took place in October/November, March/April.v.13 amazing fertility – grapes growing on upper, inaccessible reaches of the land.Such abundant fertility requires water – streams of Ezekiel 47, Zechariah 14, Joel 3.V.12 Enemies (Edom) to be called by God's name!The towns of the northern kingdom of Israel will be rebuilt.Before we hear this message of hope, we must hear his message of judgment.Conclusion"Perhaps the saddest aspect of the book of Amos is not the tone of doom throughout its pages, but the perennial relevance of its message beyond its own world and time. For human society in the modern world has changed very little from that which Amos encountered, and his message continues to speak to each succeeding generation with the same immediate relevance and urgency” (Craigie 123).The lion has roared— who will not fear? The Sovereign LORD has spoken— who can but prophesy? (Amos 3:8)Further study (repeated from Amos A):Francine Rivers, The Prophet (Carol Stream, Illinois: Tyndale House, 2006)Hosea-Jonah, The Word Biblical Commentary (New York: Word, 1987)The Twelve Prophets, Volume 1 : Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, The Daily Study Bible Series (Louisville: Westminster John Knox Press, 1984)Joel & Amos, The Tyndale Old Testament Commentaries (Downers Grove: Inter-Varsity Press, 1989)Podcast on the prophet Amos (at this website), here.

For additional notes and resources check out Douglas' website.The Day of the LordThey were not prepared to meet their God (4:12)! And yet they longed for the Day of the Lord, which would be their undoing. Amos is correcting a misconception (Day of Lord) probably developed at Bethel (5:5-6, 7:13).“In fleeing from the lion of the present, such persons will bump into the bear of the future” (Craigie 164).As mentioned earlier, lions inhabited Palestine until about 1300 AD.Bears (2 Samuel 17:8, Proverbs 17:12, Hosea 13:8) survived until the beginning of the 20th century.“The desperate, more detailed pictures of the Day in the prophets (e.g. Is. 13:6-16; Joel 2:1-2, 30-31; Zp. 1:7-16) take their dark colours from Amos' palette” (Hubbard 180).Yet why the stern, dark, severe, judgment?The Lord's demand for righteousness“I cannot stand” || Revelation 3:16. God will no longer take any pleasure in aroma of their sacrifices, which is sickening, not pleasing.Sacrifice without obedience is meaningless ritual (1 Samuel 15:22-23, Psalm 51:16-17, Isaiah 1:10-17, Hosea 6:6, Micah 6:6-8, Jeremiah 7:21-26, Malachi 1:6-14).These were not "solemn assemblies," but noisy festivals. Archaeologists have discovered in Egypt evidence of harps (v.23; see Psalm 33:2) of 10+ strings. Some stood 10-12' high!The best-known verse in Amos is v.24.Righteousness mustn't just stop and start like a desert stream (wadi); it must be consistent, continuous.God's people should be righteous all the time, not just on special occasions.Justice is one of the fundamental attributes of God.Exile is certain!Concerning the "good old days," Israel exhibited general devotion, despite periods of complaint, rebellions, especially in contrast to the present corruption, which make the earlier era appear more righteous. Jeremiah 2:2-3 and Hosea 2:14-15 also look back on those days of relative devotion.Israel will be sent into exile, the ultimate punishment for the covenant people of God.Loss of land, loss of sovereignty, state of being cursed.Opposite of Abrahamic promises (Genesis 12): land, statehood, blessing.ApplicationDon't get caught up in end-time speculations. The day of the Lord is doomsday (doom = judgment in older English). For most this will not be a time of rejoicing. We can only be ready by living right (walking justly -- see also Micah 6:8). For more on this, listen to the audio series Revelation and the End of the World, and also hear the podcasts in the Last Things category.We must be careful not to equate noise and exertion with true zeal. Religion can never take the place of righteousness.There are times for self-reflection, and even for corporate reflection. Yet it is much easier to feel safe in the group. That's why the trumpet blast is so vital; that's why the roar of the lion has a chance to shock us, to bring us back to spiritual reality.I should be praying for the Lord to develop in me a strong sense of social justice. For we will be judged on the basis of our faithfulness to our mission, which is two-pronged: help the poor (Matthew 25) and preach the word (Matthew 28). Neither one of them is optional.AdvancedDark / light (v.20) refer to danger/safety; there are no necessary moral overtones.Does 5:25 suggest the possibility that Israel didn't bring sacrifices in the wilderness? (There is little mention of the sacrificial system in the days of the Tabernacle.) In his speech in Acts 7, Stephen embellishes – changing "beyond Damascus" to "beyond Babylon," thus adapting the passage to the reality of Israel's history.In Acts 15, "the remnant of Edom" has been modified to "the rest of mankind" (citing the LXX). This change enhances the theme of the universalization of the church.Two NT citations of Amos 5:25-27 cited quoted in Acts 7:42-43, and 9:11-12 in Acts 15:16-17.The same two passages quoted in the NT (5:25-27 and 9:11-12) are also cited in the DSS: CD 7:14-15 and CD 7:16, 4QFlor 1:12 respectively.In v.26, two Assyrian astral deities are mentioned, Kaiwan and Sakkuth. The Hebrew vowels have been deliberately changed to heighten the seriousness of the charge of idolatry.

For additional notes and resources check out Douglas' website.This lesson explores Amos 4:1-13.By this point in the book of Amos all the major themes of the book have been introduced.From here to chapter 7 the material in Amos is more personal: directed against unfaithful Israel in more personal terms, and opening a window into Amos' personal life.The boom will fall (by the 720s, Assyria will have taken northern Israel into exile)! First to be challenged are the aristocratic women of Samaria.The fat cows of Bashan (4:1-3)Bashan was a fertile region of Gilead along the Yarmuk river in Transjordan, and its cows were a special breed.These women will be prodded like the corpulent cattle they are!Amos recognizes the important and responsible place of women in society. (He was thus hardly misogynist or chauvinistic.)“One does not have to dirty one's hands in the actual business of exploitation; someone else can do it, someone else can engage in the dirty work. It is possible to delegate dirty deeds, but it is not possible to avoid their guilt.” “Those whose lives of luxury had been lived at the expense of the poor would be dragged off into judgment.” – Craigie 152…Note the parallels between chapter 4 and chapter 6.The pilgrim festivals at Gilgal and Bethel (4:4-5)Gilgal and Bethel (along with Dan and Samaria) served as religious centers for the corrupt northern kingdom.After a parody of invitation to worship come five oracles of judgment. ("O come, all ye faithless..")Though disciplined, they have not responded (4:6-11)!There's a similarity to the wicked refusing to repent in Revelation, or Pharaoh failing to respond to the evidence and message from Moses.Various disciplines/punishmentscleanness of teeth =  faminelack of rainfall (Jeremiah 5:24)thirstblightagricultural woesplaguewarcity after city overthrown (Samaria not until 732, all Israel not until 722)All these threats were uttered in the Law of Moses (Leviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 28).Prepare to meet your God (4:12-13)!Irony: unlike the shallow and hypocritical preparations the Israelites went through before visiting their idolatrous shrines, Amos is talking about really meeting God (for real).The true meaning of the Day of the Lord will be expounded in the next chapter.Lessons for us:Examine our lifestyle. Are we guilty of conspicuous consumption?Ask whether we're living lives of self-indulgence (1 Timothy 5:6).Discover whether we might be oppressing the poor even indirectly.Listening to repeated warnings, rebukes, input… Are there common themes when I receive input from other disciples? From my spouse? Even from my own conscience?Recognize that the Lord expects a response. Constant hardening will lead us to a very dark and perilous place.We mustn't intellectualize judgment day.Further:Gilgal and Bethel (4:4) were on the prophet Samuel's regular circuit (1 Samuel 7:16).Among the various literary devices used by the prophet, Amos makes effective use of summary quotations:4:1 – callous demands of idle rich women: “Bring us some drinks.”6:13 – people exulting in military prowess: “Have we not by our own strength captured Karnaim for ourselves?”8:5 – greedy merchants: “When will the new moon be over, that we may sell grain? And the Sabbath, that we may offer wheat for sale, that we may make the ephah small and the shekel great and deal deceitfully with false balances, that we may buy the poor for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals and sell the chaff of the wheat?9:10 – complacent populace: “Disaster shall not overtake us.”
