Podcasts about culturally

In this episode, I speak with Gul Rukh Rahman, a woman whose life and work cross continents, cultures, and the fault lines of global politics.Born in Pakistan and raised in countries including Libya and Saudi Arabia, Gul moved to the US for university before settling in Europe 15 years ago. She grew up in conservative Peshawar in the protective bubble of a military family, yet in a region marked by instability and violence, including bomb blasts during Eid celebrations. Family expectations came with tightly controlled choices for education and relationships, leading Gul to go on a hunger strike to avoid dentistry school.Culturally hard to categorise and politically impossible to intimidate, Gul reflects on identity as a woman and a Muslim in the aftermath of 9/11, her decision to wear the hijab as a political statement, and the circumstances that prompted her to take it off. She chose activism over the safety of a corporate career, driven by a commitment to speak uncomfortable truths.Now teaching at the University of Geneva, Gul works far beyond the classroom, advising philanthropists and nonprofits, investigating where the money really goes, and exposing the darker side of “doing good.” We dive into silent philanthropy, the geopolitics shaping global giving, and how vast wealth from the Global South still flows into bank accounts in Switzerland and Dubai while the South continues to “beg” the North.This conversation blends biography, political critique, and a fearless look at philanthropy's contradictions. Gul doesn't pull her punches: and that's exactly why you should listen.Connect with Gul on LinkedIn at linkedin.com/in/gul-rukh-rahman-1b74604.Instagram: @at.the.coalfaceAnd don't forget to subscribe to At the Coalface for new episodes every two weeks.Help us produce more episodes by becoming a supporter.

The Australian Dental Association says around 1.5 million kids are missing out on free dental care every year. This Dental Health Week, dentists are urging parents to check if they're eligible for the free dental cover and to brush up on their understanding of good oral hygiene. Meanwhile, Aboriginal health organisations say awareness around the issue is not the only barrier facing First Nations and Culturally and Linguistically Diverse communities. - 大人の歯科治療はメディケアに含まれませんが、条件を満たす家庭は2年ごとに最大1,132ドルを上限に、子どもの歯科治療への支援を受けることができます。

This week's episode is a panel from the SPA 2025 Conference about bias within the profession. Dr Vishnu Nair, Professor Betty Yu and Associate Professor Sarah Verdon discuss the history of our field's alignment with medical approaches, and the subsequent bias particularly in relation to race, disability, and the intersection of disparities, with a particular focus on neurodiversity. This conversation aligns with the launch of a new SPA resource, the Culturally responsive speech pathology, position statement, which Dr Marie Atherton introduces at the start of the episode.

Group Guide Use this guide to help your group discussion as you meet this week. TranscriptGood morning, my name is Chet. I'm one of the pastors here. Grab a Bible and go to First Samuel, chapter 25. We are working our way through the book of First Samuel. We left off last week where David had the opportunity to murder Saul. Saul's been chasing David, trying to kill him. David finally has Saul right in his grasp in a cave and he does not kill him. He comes, cuts off a piece of his cloak, follows him out of the cave and says, see this? Do you notice that it used to belong to your cloak? Check out your cloak. I could have killed you and I didn't because I don't want to.Saul and David have this moment where Saul says, I'm wrong, I shouldn't be doing what I'm doing. There's a little bit of a peace. Then it says they head separate ways. We're picking up in chapter 25, and we're going to see this interaction with David and some other people, and we're going to see David actively pursuing sin and how God meets him in that, what happens, how David responds, and how these other people respond. Hopefully, we will learn along with David to appreciate correction.The verse says this:> Now Samuel died, and all Israel assembled and mourned for him and buried him in his house at Ramah.Samuel has passed and his work as the last judge is over. He's the last judge of Israel. He has transitioned under the leadership of God and under the desire of the people to a monarch ruling the land. It hasn't gone well. We've seen how all that's worked out. The last we saw him, David had run to him to try to hide while Saul was chasing him. He is now passed, and it says all Israel gathered to mourn. I think it is likely that that included David and Saul, but if it excluded one of them, it was probably David. The way the text is written seems as if David was there.It also says that Samuel was buried in his house at Ramah, which makes me think people didn't keep living in that house. I don't know; maybe it became a site for the people of Israel, but the text doesn't give us much information about that.Continuing in verse 1, it says:> Then David rose and went down to the wilderness of Paran. And there was a man whose business was in Carmel.The man was very rich. He had 3,000 sheep and a thousand goats. Take a moment and try to picture that. That's a lot of sheep and goats, a lot of people that have to tend to them. The man was shearing his sheep in Carmel. Now, you may have a picture of what shearing sheep is like. You understand that it's removing the excess wool from a sheep. But culturally, when we just say he's shearing his sheep, I don't think we completely capture the festivity.This was festive. In order to shear 3,000 sheep, you need a lot of shearers. They gather, it's like a harvest. You've kept these sheep alive all winter; it's now about to get hot, and it's spring. They gather. It's celebratory. A bunch of people together. The wool means wealth—he can use it, he can sell it. People gather, eat, celebrate, shear sheep, and then eventually they have to spread back out because you can't have that many sheep in one place at one time.So they've been all over the place, gather, shear the sheep, have a festival for however long this takes, a bunch of people together, then spread back out. That's what's happening. Culturally, when they heard "sheep shearing," it's like us hearing it's Christmas time. It's festive in their mind with all it entails.He's shearing his sheep. Verse 3:> Now the name of the man was Nabal, and the name of his wife Abigail.There's another cultural thing missed on us here: the word Nabal means fool or boorish; his name is "fool." If you spoke Hebrew, you'd catch that. Names mean things in their culture. Either it was a rough time in the life of his parents when he was born and they took it out on him, or he was born and his mom said, "You look a lot like your father; we're gonna name you Fool." Some family dynamics we don't want to get into. Or he has earned this name over time and just rolled with it.It'd be like if you introduced him as "my buddy Blockhead," and he'd say, "Sup?" You'd have guesses on what this dude's like. That's what's happening here: his name's Fool.Then it tells us where we are. The woman, Abigail, was discerning and beautiful, but the man was harsh and badly behaved. So he's earned it; he's lived up to it. At least he was a Calebite, meaning he comes from a prominent family inside the tribe of Judah. David is also in the tribe of Judah, so they would have considered each other kin, more especially kin than just being of the people of Israel.David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep. So David sent ten young men, and David said to the young men:> Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name. And thus you shall greet him:>> Peace be to you, and peace be to your house, and peace be to all that you have.>> I hear that you have shearers.>> Now your shepherds have been with us, and we did them no harm, and they missed nothing all the time they were in Carmel.>> Ask your young men, and they will tell you.>> Therefore, let my young men find favor in your eyes, for we come on a feast day.>> Please give whatever you have at hand to your servants and to your son David.David sends a ten-man delegation to say, "We hear you have shearers, which means it's a feast day. We've been with your shearers and shepherds. We've actually been part of the reason all your sheep are alive. If there's anything you could give us, that'd be great."This can sound a little extortionary to us: "I helped you out, you owe me." Maybe a little of that is there, but they're of the same tribe. This is a normal thing to be hospitable and to expect hospitality. So what David has helped him, he's saying, "I'm part of the reason why this has gone so well for you this year, and we'd like to participate in this feast."The next layer is that we're of the same tribe. They belong to each other. Another layer is you should just say yes to this anyway, no matter who shows up and asks because that's what the people of Israel are supposed to be like: hospitable and welcoming.Well above our cultural pressures to be hospitable and welcoming, this is a normal cultural thing that you would say yes to.It's a little bit like if someone says, "Hey, is there anything you could do? It would be really helpful. You know it is Christmas." Saying "It's Christmas" adds this "You should" kind of thing to it. But they should say yes all the time. At sheep shearing time, it's more festive and more hospitable; there are all kinds of layers to why Nabal should say yes to this. It's expected, it's good, it's what he ought to do.Remember his name, right? Let's see how he acts.Verse 9:> When David's young men came, they said all this to Nabal in the name of David. And then they waited.And Nabal answered:> David's servants, who is David? Who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants these days who are breaking away from their masters. Shall I take my bread and my water and my meat that I have killed for my shearers and give it to the men who come from nowhere, whom I do not know?That would be rude to us. It is wildly, excessively rude to them. You ever watch a Western? You know how there's a moment where one calls the other a liar, and everything gets tense? They stand up because you've called me a liar. Obviously, I have to shoot you now. That's the kind of thing happening.Or in the play Hamilton, they've seen multiple duels in writing letters back and forth. You can tell these are fighting words, working toward a duel. Culturally, we don't have that anymore. We don't do duels anymore; that's probably good for us.Every once in a while you meet someone and think, "I wish someone had hit them upside the head," but in general, culturally it's good that we turn the other cheek, that we're calmer, that we don't overreact or defend our honor in that way.But what Nabal has done is aggressively, intentionally disregarded, dishonored, picked a fight with David in pride. He said, "Who is David? Who's the son of Jesse? You come from no one; you are worth nothing." He says there are many people who have broken away from their masters and are roaming around the woods these days. You want me to feed all of them? Like, no.This is very aggressive.They go back to David. Let's see how David responds.Verse 12:> So David's young men turned away and came back and told him all this.David said to his men:> Every man, strap on his sword.Every man strapped on his sword; David also strapped on his sword. About 400 men went up after David, while 200 remained with the baggage.He leaves 200 and takes 400, saying, "Put your swords on. Let's go talk to Nabal ourselves."Verse 14:> But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, "Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to greet our master, and he railed at them. Yet the men were very good to us. We suffered no harm, and we did not miss anything when we were in the fields. As long as we went with them, they were a wall to us both by night and by day. All the while we were with them, keeping the sheep."Now, therefore, know this and consider what you should do, for harm is determined against our master and against all his house. He is such a worthless man that one cannot speak to him.There's a handful of things going on here. Somebody watches this interaction and says, somebody go tell Abigail, somebody get Ma—she'll handle this. That's the assumption.You can actually see the kind of respect and the position that she held in this household by the way they're responding. I don't know if your life has been like mine, but I've been wildly blessed by ladies like this who can handle things, who will sort stuff out, who, when something's going poorly, you say, "Yeah, go get them. Explain this to them. They'll step in, make this better, know what to do." That's the situation she's in: somebody goes to say, "Hey, real quick, Nabal was Nabling, and I need to talk to you about what just happened."They explain it to her.I also want to point out that they say, "You know what he's like. You can't talk to him. He is such a worthless man. No one can speak to him." I just want to tell you that you don't want that to ever be true for you. You don't want people to say, "Well, you know what it's like to talk to them? They don't listen. They're hard to talk to."You want to actively fight that in yourself. When someone says, "Hey, I need to talk to you about something," you want to go, "Okay, this is my chance. Lord, help me. Don't get defensive. Help me listen," because that's a bad spot to be in.They say he was very rude to them, and they've been great. David was great to us. It was great to be with David. We didn't worry about anything. As long as we were with them, there was nothing to worry about. They helped us; they protected us; they defended us.Not only should he probably not respond that way to anybody, but he certainly should be good to these guys because they've been very good to us. That's the situation they're saying to him.Verse 18:> Then Abigail made haste and took 200 loaves and two skins of wine and five sheep already prepared, and five seahs of parched grain, and a hundred clusters of raisins and 200 cakes of figs, and laid them on donkeys.That's a lot of food just ready to go.She starts piling this on donkeys: 200 loaves, five sheep already prepared, 200 cakes of figs. He's very rich.We'll find out later it's not like she went and cleaned out buffets. They don't even notice this stuff is gone. Not only should he have said yes, he actually had the ability to say yes and not even notice it. So he's got all this ready to go at the moment. It's unnoticed.She puts it on donkeys.Verse 19:> She said to her young men, "Go on before me; behold, I come after you." But she did not tell her husband Nabal.As she rode on the donkey and came down under the cover of the mountain, behold, David and his men came down toward her. She met them.David had said:> Surely in vain have I guarded all that this fellow has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that belonged to him. And he has returned me evil for good.>> God do so to the enemies of David, and more also, if by morning I leave so much as one male of all who belong to him.David's plan as he's traveling is, when we get there, we're going to kill every man. David says to himself that it was a huge waste of time that he defended his sheep.If you lived in a modest home backed up to somebody's massive acreage and could see all the wealth they had, and at some point their fence broke and their little yappy dog got out, you helped catch the dog and fixed the fence. Then later, you go around and say, "Hey, you wouldn't happen to have any eggs?" and they say, "I can't be giving handouts to people who can't afford eggs." What does that look like? Charity? "Get off my lawn before I call the police."You might go back to your house and think, "I'm going to break their fence and steal their dog." Originally, you weren't doing it because you knew one day you were going to need something, but there might be something in you that goes, "That was a waste of time. This guy's such a jerk. He doesn't deserve any good thing I've ever done for him."You might just be losing it in your backyard.That's a little bit of what's happening with David here. He's responded violently and is saying to himself, everything that I did that was good was a waste of time. He's decided he's going to kill everybody.He gives an interesting curse—we've seen several curses in First Samuel. This is one of the better ones because of how he words it. Most curses we've seen have followed a pattern: "May the Lord do so and more also to me if I don't blank to them." But David says:> May the Lord do so and more also to my enemies if I don't kill all of them.A double outward-facing curse. It seems like a better way to word it. If I don't kill them, may the Lord kill them. He just puts it out that way; he doesn't bind himself in a curse.His plan is to go kill everybody.I want you to hear this clearly: David is wrong. Don't read your Bible and think this is one of the good guys. Not everything he does is good. The Lord is good, and what he does is good. You can see what he's doing and say that's good (Jesus is good). The Bible isn't about good people and bad people; it's about bad people and Jesus.You see Jesus at work; you can say, "This must be good," but you can't do that with anybody else.What David is about to do is wrong; he's going to defend his pride through massacre. Nobody talks to David like that; that's where he's at.But who just met him? Abigail.David's coming with 400 men, all with swords strapped on. They don't look pleasant; they're on their way to harm people. She comes to talk to them.What she's about to do is insanely courageous.You know how you have things you're afraid of? Meeting new people, large crowds, public speaking, facing down an army, possibly being murdered, conflict. She's about to do all those, and handle them extremely well.When you look at Proverbs 31, which talks about what a woman should look like—a wife should look like—Abigail is Proverbs 31 on display: using intelligence, ability, wisdom for the good of those around her.She could have avoided this situation. She knew something bad was coming. She could have left; it would have affected her household. But she was involved.She jumps right in the middle for Nabal's sake and for David's sake. She sees two foolish men. She actually knew that something bad was going to happen.As soon as she heard the situation, she said David's on the move. She was right. She said, "I don't think you can talk stuff to David like that without there being a lot of bad things that happen next."She's right.She's going to intercept David and Nabal, jump in the middle of them and this brokenness where pride, arrogance, anger are about to slam into each other.Suddenly there's Abigail on a donkey, about to give the largest speech of any woman in the Old Testament. She's going to share wisdom, clarity, humility, faith.This is what she says.Verse 23:> When Abigail saw David, she hurried and got down from the donkey and fell before David on her face and bowed to the ground.She begins with a very humble posture. She shows up, bows to the ground. It does not tell us if she gets up. It's possible she continues speaking from that posture or maybe stands.Verse 24:> She fell at his feet and said,>> On me alone, my lord, be the guilt.>> Please let your servant speak in your ears and hear the words of your servant.>> Let not, my lord, regard this worthless fellow Nabal, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name, and folly is with him.Quick pause: I don't believe this gives wives license to speak however they want about their husbands, even their foolish husbands. Which I know is a follow-up question.Put your hand down.But if you are negotiating good for his entire household and trying to save his life, I think the rules get looser than when you're at book club with your friends. She doesn't speak in a very honoring way of her husband. He has actively done dumb things. She is trying for the sake of their household to bring good.She's trying to bring blessing to him, even though he's acted like that.But this isn't how I think you're allowed to talk about them all the time.Even if she did, you still shouldn't.She starts off by saying we don't want Nabal representing her house. This is on me.Don't let him lead you into this. That's what she's saying.She continues:> But I, your servant, did not see the young men of my lord whom you sent. Please forgive me. This is on me. If I had seen him, we wouldn't have this problem.Verse 26:> Now then, my lord, as the Lord lives and as your soul lives, because the Lord has restrained you from blood guilt and from saving with your own hand, now then, let your enemies and those who seek to do evil to my lord be as Nabal.She says it's so good the Lord restrained him from blood guilt. She assumes graciously and boldly that he's going to stop. The Lord has intercepted him to keep him from doing something foolish.She doesn't say "foolish," but it's baked in.The fool was about to create folly, and she's thankful the Lord helped stop it.Then:> May the Lord make all of your enemies like Nabal—not dead, but foolish. Let them act foolish, but don't let you act foolish.Verse 27:> And now let this present that your servant has brought to my lord be given to the young men who follow my lord. Please forgive the trespass of your servant, for the Lord will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord is fighting the battles of the Lord, and evil shall not be found in you so long as you live.> If men rise up to pursue you and seek your life, the life of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of the living in the care of the Lord your God, and the lives of your enemies shall he sling out as from the hollow of a sling.She's wise in words, uses sling metaphors for David. He gets it immediately.She brings blessing. She shows up in the middle of sin, takes guilt, and brings blessing.She brings physical blessing and then verbally blesses him. She says, “Take this gift,” and then she blesses David, his house, family, future.Verse 30:> When the Lord has done to my lord according to all the good that he has spoken concerning you and has appointed you prince over Israel...It seems known that David has been anointed and that he's going to be king; that has spread at least to the people in Judah.Verse 31:> My lord shall have no cause of grief or pangs of conscience for having shed blood without cause, or for my lord working salvation for himself.> When the Lord has dealt well with my lord, then remember your servant.She says when she shows up, "I'm glad the Lord let me intercept you to keep you from blood guilt." She ends with, when he makes you king, you won't feel bad about this. You won't have pangs of conscience that you tried to save yourself or shed blood without cause.It's wise, clear, corrective, humble.Verse 32:> David said to Abigail,>> "Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who sent you this day to meet me.>> Blessed be your discretion, and blessed be you who have kept me this day from blood guilt and from working salvation with my own hand.>> For as surely as the Lord, the God of Israel lives, who has restrained me from hurting you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, truly by morning there had not been left in Nabal so much as one male."David erupts in worship:Oh, thank the Lord! Blessed be the Lord! Blessed be your discretion! Blessed be you that you came because I was about to do something so foolish!Y'all, may we respond like David when we're corrected. May we love the people who correct us.Culturally, we celebrate, "I want my friends to match my energy." Like, if I'm amped up, I want you to get amped up with me.I saw a clip from a movie: a guy comes in, looks at his friend, says, "Hey, you can't ask me questions; I need you to come with me. We're going to hurt some people. We can never talk about this again." His friend looks at him and says, "Are you driving, or am I driving?"Culturally, we say, "Yay! Best friends! Secret murders!"That's what we want. We want friends who ride or die. We want you to hop in the car if I say, "Let's go."Reality is, no. You need some calm, patient, wet blanket friends. Some people who say, "Why aren't you mad?"You need people who have wisdom, discretion, who slow you down, love you enough to risk a relationship by correcting you.I'm not talking about argumentative, contrary people. I'm talking about people who love you enough to say, "Hey, we need to talk because what you're doing is unwise, unhelpful, foolish, sinful."We want to learn to be people who say, "Praise Jesus that you listened to the Spirit when I didn't! Thank you, Lord, that you sent them to be around me."You're doing things over your life that are unwise. You're doing things that aren't good. You're sinning.The last time you were corrected is maybe the last time someone showed you genuine love.If you go long seasons without correction, you need to begin to work on how you respond to correction and the type of people you surround yourself with.May we be people like Abigail who love people enough to say something. She jumped in the middle, could have left, but she was involved.Verse 35:> Then David received from her hand what she had brought him.>> He said to her, "Go up in peace to your house. See, I have obeyed your voice and granted your petition."Abigail came to Nabal, and behold, he was holding a feast in his house like the feast of a king.Nabal's heart was merry within him; he was very drunk.She told him nothing at all until morning.Verse 37:> In the morning, when the wine had gone out of Nabal, his wife told him these things.>> His heart died within him, and he became as a stone.>> About ten days later, the Lord struck Nabal, and he died.She went and explained: you said this, I did this, I met David with 400 men coming to kill everybody, the gift I gave him.He locks up; something happens to his heart, his body. He dies ten days later.Verse 39:> When David heard that Nabal was dead,>> He said, "Blessed be the Lord, who has avenged the insult I received at the hand of Nabal and kept back his servant from wrongdoing.>> The Lord has returned the evil of Nabal on his own head."This principle runs throughout Scripture: we aren't meant to get vengeance ourselves. We're to trust the Lord that He will respond, will care for us, and this is not to be taken into our hands.We are to say, "Lord, I will bear insult, trusting you'll bring about good."That's how David responds when he hears that: "Thank you, Lord, for letting his wickedness fall back on him and not on me.""For me not getting involved, me not doing wrongdoing, You kept me back from him."Verse 40:> Then David sent and spoke to Abigail to take her as his wife.When the servants of David came to Abigail at Carmel, they said to her:> David has sent us to you to take you to him as his wife.She rose and bowed with her face to the ground, saying:> "Behold, your handmaid is a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord."Abigail hurried, rose, mounted a donkey, and her five young women attended her.She followed the messengers of David and became his wife.First of all, she has little notes: she has the largest lady entourage of anybody in Scripture.She's wealthy and well attended to. She humbly accepts this. She even responds, "I'll just be a servant." I think she knows she's going to get married, but she humbly says, "I'll be a servant." She's gracious.The story begins with David sending men to say, "Hey, Nabal, can we have some food from your feast?"It ends with him going and getting Nabal's wife.It's a wild story.One thing is when David's corrected by Abigail, he loves her for it; he responds.I want to read the last of this chapter before considering a few things:Verse 42:> So she became his wife.David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel, and both of them became his wives.Saul had given Michal, his daughter, David's wife, to Palti, son of Laish, who was of Gallim.Personally, I wish that note was somewhere else, because it feels like you see this interesting little love story play out, and at the end they're getting married, but then there's another lady also, and you're like, "Wait, what?"Historically, men in power had multiple wives.We see David wrongfully, angrily respond to a thing. We see him begin to take multiple wives.He's not handling everything well.One of the things for kings is they wouldn't have too many wives. He's not even a king yet; he's just roaming the woods.He already has two and a half because we're not exactly sure what's going on with Michal. She's married to someone else but also married to him.We'll see how that plays out.That's the situation.Looking back, consider something beautiful in this text.Abigail rides in to intercept in the middle before things go wildly wrong.David loves her for it.He walks under the shadow of the mountain, ready to murder.He leaves praising the Lord.His heart is softened at her correction.Nabal is hardened at her correction. He turns to stone, and it kills him.We have softening and love, and death born out of the same action.This reality is how Jesus comes to us.He intercepts us in our sin.He comes to correct us, call us away from sin, stepping into situations He didn't have to but does because He loves us and wants to rescue and bring blessing.He steps in to take guilt on Himself, saying, "Let the guilt fall on me."All who hear this message will either, like David, soften and love Him or will harden and say, "Who does He think He is? Why do I have to worship Him? Why do I have to follow Him? What does He mean He died for my sin? What is sin? He made the rules. Why would I have to?"You will twist on it.There's a way to respond that brings life, blessing, joy, hope.There's a way that hardens you up.If you belong to Jesus, your heart ought to be very soft to Him and His correction.You ought to see with joy the love He shows when He corrects.You ought to be soft in correction to those around you who say, "I think you're wrong about this."You ought to say, "Thank you for loving me."Try to listen as best you can, understand what they're saying, sort it out, be patient.Praise the Lord for people who will correct you.None of us want to harden ourselves against Jesus or His people so we might work closer to death, locking ourselves into stone so we can't hear His voice or listen.Let's pray.God, may You in Your grace let us be soft and receptive.May we be receptive to Your Spirit when You call us to repentance.May we be receptive to the people in our church family and those around us who know us and love us and love You who correct us.May it be a delight to our soul as David was blessed and continued to bless Your name for turning him away from wrongdoing.Lord, may we love the people in our church and those close to us enough to correct them.I pray in Jesus' name and by Your Spirit's work, for those who have hardened themselves against Your calls to repentance, may You not let them do it.May You not let them harden their heart or turn to stone so they cannot hear Your voice or listen to Your people.May You intercept them by Your grace even now.May they hear and repent.We ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.As a church, we are going to take communion together.I'd like to read from Luke chapter 22.This is Jesus on the night He was betrayed, at the last supper with His disciples.Luke 22:19 says:> And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying,>> "This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me."When we take communion together, we take a loaf and remember that Jesus' body was broken for us.Our hope is not that we would suffer and die for ourselves, atone for our sin, but that He has.We share in one loaf, and when we do this together, we remind ourselves and each other that our one hope is Jesus and Jesus alone.And then likewise the cup:> "This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood."This hope is made sure because it is covenanted with us through the blood of Christ, sealed through His work.If you have trusted Christ, we take communion as a remembrance of this moment and the covenant made with us.We take it in hope of the day coming when all things are restored and made new, forgiven fully and made free.If you have not placed your faith in Jesus, this is not for you.We say Christ is for you. His offer of salvation is for you. Repentance is for you.But we ask you not to take communion until you understand fully what you're celebrating.For those who've placed faith in Jesus, take a moment, listen to the Spirit.If there's somewhere you need to repent, if there's someone you need to talk to, do that, then come joyfully.Remind your soul your sin has been paid for, and your hope is held sure because of Christ's work.If you have a gluten allergy, we have gluten-free back there.

 “Most of any leader's job is change management—setting a vision people buy into and aligning them behind it.”  “I view the organisation as an inverted triangle—the frontline is at the top, and we serve them.” “You should be most concerned when your performance board is all green. Red means there's something to learn.” “Trust in Japan isn't optional—it's the foundation of everything, and it can't be rushed.” “Leadership isn't about a role or title—it's about helping others grow and succeed around a shared purpose.” Previously Kasper was General Manager, Novo Nordisk Denmark & Iceland; Corporate Vice President DFP Manufacturing Development; Corporate Vice President Novo Nordisk Production S.A.S.; Vice President Aseptic Production; Corporate Vice President Global Support; Corporate Vice-President Insulin Manufacturing; Corporate Vice-President CMC Support R&D.  He has an Executive MBA from IMD;  an MSc Psychology from Kobenhavns Universitet-University of Copenhagen and an MSc Management from the University of Bath. Kasper's leadership journey reflects a blend of purpose-driven conviction and operational adaptability. Beginning as a psychologist, his career at Novo Nordisk has spanned over two decades and included transitions from HR to manufacturing, R&D, and commercial operations. This multidimensional path helped him develop a leadership style that balances strategic thinking with deep human insight. He views leadership not as a formal mandate but as the ability to rally people around a shared purpose and help them succeed collectively. Kasper sees change management as the cornerstone of leadership. For him, setting a compelling vision, aligning people behind it, and then designing an organisation that can execute effectively are vital. He believes a leader must master both the financial and human elements of business—but often, the human side is overlooked. His training in psychology gives him a significant advantage in navigating complex interpersonal dynamics and building engagement. In Japan, Kasper encountered leadership challenges and cultural nuances that required adaptation. He was pleasantly surprised to find Japan's corporate culture less hierarchical than expected, describing it as “middle-up-down,” where middle management plays an essential role in shaping and executing strategy. However, he found consensus-building mechanisms like nemawashi both a strength and a barrier—excellent for execution but often limiting for rapid innovation. To counter these constraints, Kasper has implemented informal listening tours, smaller discussion forums, and ambassador-driven strategy sessions to surface ideas from the front line. He emphasises purpose as the unifying force. By focusing on “creating healthy longevity” for patients, he finds alignment across departments and geographies. His model places the front-line staff at the top of an inverted triangle, with leadership tasked with removing barriers to their success. Kasper is acutely aware of the barriers to innovation in Japan's risk-averse culture. He aims to create psychological safety, promote entrepreneurial thinking, and reward experimentation even when outcomes fall short. His own career setbacks are a source of learning, and he values candidates who can reflect on failures more than those who only tout success. Trust-building is another pillar of his approach. Recognising Japan's emphasis on relationships, he actively invests time in social engagement with staff, learns Japanese to demonstrate commitment, and adapts expectations to fit the local environment. He is cautious about imposing quick changes, preferring to spend time understanding needs before charting a strategic course. Culturally, Kasper navigates between Novo Nordisk's global values and the diversity within Japan. He resists overgeneralising Japanese culture, choosing instead to cultivate subcultures within the organisation that reflect future needs. He also aligns his leadership team with these values, making adjustments where necessary to drive cohesion and performance. Ultimately, Kasper defines leadership as helping others grow and succeed. It's not about authority, but about creating a shared direction and empowering people to reach it. This people-centred philosophy, combined with strategic acuity and cultural humility, is what he believes drives sustainable success.  

The Australian Dental Association says around 1.5 million kids are missing out on free dental care every year. This Dental Health Week, dentists are urging parents to check if they're eligible for the free dental cover and to brush up on their understanding of good oral hygiene. Meanwhile, Aboriginal health organisations say awareness around the issue is not the only barrier facing First Nations and Culturally and Linguistically Diverse communities.

Send us a textHave you ever caught yourself becoming a different person depending on who you're around? That's the heart of what I'm exploring in this raw, unfiltered conversation about identity, purpose, and the exhausting work of being everyone except yourself.After nearly 15 years serving in the military, the end of my marriage, and a dramatic shift in my financial situation, I found myself stripped of all the external factors that had defined me. Without these anchors, I was forced to confront an unsettling question: Who am I when I'm not performing for others? This episode takes you through my personal journey of code-switching and shape-shifting – how I became an expert at reading rooms and becoming whoever I needed to be in any given environment. While this chameleon-like ability helped me achieve certain goals, it ultimately led me down paths that weren't meant for me.The consequences became physical. Anxiety attacks in situations where I once felt comfortable. A profound sense of purposelessness when clear objectives disappeared. The painful realization that I had invested my identity in everyone except myself. I'm learning that being what I call "culturally inappropriate" – authentically myself regardless of expectations – is both terrifying and necessary. This isn't about selfishness; it's about alignment with your authentic self and divine purpose. When we stop walking paths laid out by parents, spouses, friends or society and courageously forge our own, something remarkable happens: we find our true selves.Whether you're questioning your own identity or feeling trapped by others' expectations, this episode offers a companion in that struggle. Join me in embracing the messy, beautiful work of becoming who we're truly meant to be. Have you been walking someone else's path instead of your own?Support the show

We talk a lot about racism in America, but what we're really contending with today isn't just race—it's culture. It's not about the color of your skin, but the code you speak. Not the blood in your veins, but the dialect on your tongue. It's not whiteness that gets punished—it's acting white. It's not blackness that's rejected—it's betraying the culture. This is not racism. This is cultural apartheid.I learned this growing up in Hawaii, where being a haole (white) wasn't the problem—it was acting haole that got you smacked down. The local Asian and Polynesian kids who studied hard, dressed preppy, or spoke standard English weren't accepted. They were called Twinkies (yellow on the outside, white on the inside) or bananas. Brown kids were accused of acting white. It's the same logic that calls Clarence Thomas the “Black face of white supremacy.” The attack isn't about biology—it's about betrayal.My mother knew the code. She drilled it into me. Inside the house, I was to speak proper Manhattanite English—“NPR English,” she called it. She filled my mind with Sagan, Picasso, PBS, poetry, National Geographic. But when I stepped out the door, she expected me to speak local. Slippah talk. Braddah slang. "What, you? Stink eye, eh?" That kind of thing. Code-switching wasn't optional. It was survival.And here's the thing: the people who don't or won't code-switch—who plant their feet and refuse—get culturally ghettoized. Not racially. Culturally. And then they're told this isolation is empowerment. That rejecting the norms of so-called whiteness is resistance. But what it really is? It's opt-in apartheid. It's self-segregation dressed up as identity.This isn't just about dialect or diction. It's deeper. It's about creating pride around disconnection. It's about rejecting opportunity because opportunity looks like assimilation. It's about mocking Black excellence if it “sounds white.” It's about labeling those who succeed outside the culture as sellouts. It's a trap—and it's being sold as virtue.What's happening isn't that different from what eugenicists once tried to do through force—except now it's happening through cultural manipulation. Back then, they sterilized. Now, they convince you to sterilize yourself. Back then, they built ghettos. Now, they convince you to build your own. Back then, they burned bridges. Now, you're told burning bridges is bravery.You want to know the wildest part? Even among white people, there's a caste. I had a guy on Mastodon—a literal white supremacist—tell me I wasn't really white. I'm Irish and Hungarian. That makes me untermench to him. Not Anglo. Not Aryan enough. Catholic, no less. Garbage blood. Slavic trash. So when you talk about whiteness, understand even the racists have tiers.The people who think they're resisting white supremacy by rejecting standard norms are actually reinforcing a deeper, more sinister system—a system that wants you contained, controlled, and culled. It wants you to choose self-limitation and then call it identity. It wants you to abandon the tools of success, then blame “the system” for failure. It wants you broke, isolated, and dependent—and convinced that's freedom.We need to call this what it is: cultural apartheid. Not class apartheid. Not even racial apartheid. Cultural. You're judged not by your skin, but by your syntax. Your style. Your self-presentation. You're either in the house, or you're in the yard. And the tragedy? A lot of people are choosing the yard and calling it liberation.So no, this isn't about “acting white.” It's about refusing to play the game that keeps you small. It's about seeing code-switching not as betrayal, but as strategy. It's about refusing to be a mule who plants their feet in defiance while the world moves on.Speak every language you can. Walk in every world you can. Don't let anyone shame you into staying small. The deck is open. The cockpit has a seat. Don't chain yourself to the hold and call it pride.

“Simplicity was something I learned from my family and grew up with. The fact is, you do not need fancy food, you do not need a huge variety of food. You can have some potatoes, and you can have one vegetable, and you make a brothy sauce with the vegetables, and you pour it over the freshly cooked potatoes. It can be so comforting and nourishing. So simplicity is something that is important for us to understand.” —Daniela Kratz   “I grew up in a household where we cooked together. Cooking was a way of connecting for us. Culturally, food is a language of love, poetry, and respect for nature. We grew up and used everything that was available; nothing went to waste. So for my kids it was important to pass that on.” —Shirin Gonili Aryanpour   What if the most radical act of sustainability isn't what you buy, but how you gather your family around the table? In a world that tells working moms to do it all, the real challenge is weaving mindful choices into the chaos of daily life without losing the joy, the flavor, or the connection. If you've ever wondered how to nurture your kids, your career, and the planet—without burning out—this conversation is for you. Meet Shirin Aryanpour, a mom and former physical therapist who transformed her family's kitchen into a hub of love, culture, and zero-waste creativity, and Daniela Kratz, founder of Farmhouse Lab, who brings the wisdom of generations and the simplicity of real food to her own children. Together, they share honest stories of juggling work, family, and the pursuit of a sustainable lifestyle, offering practical rituals, cultural insights, and the reassurance that perfection isn't the goal.   Tune in as Justine, Shirin, and Daniela explore how food rituals, cultural traditions, and open-door community spirit can empower working moms to teach their kids about conscious choices, nurture respect for nature, balance busy schedules, and celebrate the beauty of imperfection.    Meet Daniela:  A SF Bay Area-based mom of two, Daniela Kratz, the mastermind behind Farmhouse Lab's high-quality specialty dressings, which she launched in 2016, shifted from a sustainability leadership role with a large global corporation to focus on what inspired her most — directly helping individuals make healthier, more locally-driven and sustainable food choices. Daniela's inspiration for creating high-quality, sustainably sourced, delicious dressings originated from her realization that the majority of dressings on the shelves contain emulsifiers, preservatives, artificial flavors, and/or refined sugars. And what was easy for her to whip up in the kitchen wasn't so simple for many on-the-go parents and professionals. With the start of her own family, combined with her love of entertaining and passion for sustainability, it was a natural for Daniela to create a business designed to promote a healthy lifestyle.

This week, we discuss the potency of urbanism's gateway drug: summer festivals. Culturally, Americans love to frequent farmer's markets, watch fireworks, and attend live arts shows in the park. We often don't realize that these are all functions of a walkable environment (even if often temporary). Vendor tents are proxies for small shops, food trucks could be permanent neighborhood eateries, and running into friends could be a norm rather than a novelty.Instead of closing a parking lot or street for one night only, what if we planned our cities to facilitate and prioritize community all year long?Also: On nostalgia, Pokémon Go, and the Oregon Shakesphere Festival.Timeline:00:00 Aly's back.01:06 Summer festivities and temporary walkability.02:05 Nostalgia and summertime memories.02:47 Pokemon Go and gamified outdoor activities.07:49 Urbanism and community events.12:18 Navigating festivals and parking challenges.22:45 Festival fatigue and urban living.27:07 Our upcoming trip to Ashland, Oregon.30:03 Wrapping up.

When you think of foods that give you a sense of home, what comes to mind? Culturally connected foods are those ingredients, dishes and tastes that connect you back to your heritage and cultural identity. For the AAPI community, finding those foods can be challenging. In May, Where We Live host Catherine Shen hosted a panel discussion called “Cultural Food Systems Through the AAPI Lens” at the Legislative Office Building in Hartford. The panel discussed ways to expand access to these foods and increase food security for all communities in Connecticut.

When it comes to compassion, one size does not fit all.  In this first episode in a series inspired by the Metro North Health Compassionate Care Principles we zoom in on Culturally Informed Compassion with Roslyn Boland, Director of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health at RBWH. Rosyln identifies as an Aboriginal woman of the Mardigan and Kooma peoples and we acknowledge the examples we discuss in this podcast are a composite of her lived experience and of the many stories she holds from communities and families she has engaged with in her work as a health care worker, liaison officer, nurse and healthcare leader. Roslyn's five things:  Compassion for our Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islanders population is the same for everyone else. We need to remain aware of cultural sensitivities Be aware and connected to the additional needs of our indigenous peoples, don't make assumptions ask every time.  Involve our Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander workforce early. When working with Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islanders peoples it is important to remember that compassion has to extend and begin with the patient in the context of their family, friends and community. Keeping the family/friends/community engaged, involved, communicated with is part of compassionate care. Compassion is felt and experienced by others, it is not something ‘done' to others. We have to be relational, recognise that all individuals are different and we discover those needs by connection, questions and listening. Compassion also has to be found in the system. Be an advocate for our Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islanders patients, families, communities, colleagues and peers  

On today's episode  I start off talking about my weekly adventures in the real world. I speak about running into an ex and seeing that she didn't upgrade her taste in men, she just didn't like me. I also speak about this heat wave and how people feel that their natural deodorant is out in the real world combating strongly… it is not. Now on the reality side i almost get to find out f vampires are real by seeing one in maybe action.THE BOSS - JAMES BROWNGET DOWN  -  NAS(00:00 - 22:10)I have a new not so new segment which is about movie reviews and spoilers. This week i speak about   “ 28 YEARS LATER ”  which to me was almost a great movie all the way until we get to the end of the movie. It was a great story of the passage to rights or status of being a man. From there this young man gets to experience the world outside of his own village. With a few twist and turns this movie does a great job keeping your attention and asking WTH lol(22:11 - 39:30)I then jump into The Cool Report  where i discuss a new trend going on in the influencer streets, where some pretend that it is cool to play a criminal, These kids are going out pretending to be on house arrest, by purchasing amazon ankle monitors. From there we speak about The Mexican OT speaking out of place and it seems like he got his pass revoked in some hoods. Then i get to remind you about the next New York state of mind, we have now been classified as sub tropical, what does that mean i don't know i just live here. (39:31 - 01:05:28)We then step into a segment where the listeners ask me 3 questions about myself or just randomness. A character brings up the Jim vs Was debate and boy oh boy do i go. I start off right away letting the followers know QGTM and we're not here to play around. Another character triggers me by asking me to speak on a subject that is culturally inappropriate. While another sends me another trend going on in these social media streets, and boy goh boy these folks are delusional. (01:05:29 - 01:27:41)Then we have 2 fans ask us a questions for PTL where we get asked the tough questions where we place ourselves in their shoes. Like how to get rid of dead weight when summer his upon us, and i must say i have never took part of the ritual, i get rid of people for far far less. Another lover wants to know is marriage transactional when it comes to getting someone help with citizenship and will the current ex rat… I say yes yes they will. (01:27:42 - 01:36:47)THE FINi give thank to everyone that shows us love and wish y'all the best on the journey called life.(01:36:48 - 01:42:05)please continue to like, share, comment and subscribe.PEACE OUT!!!! For questions to be answered on Part time lover please email @nospecialcharacterspod@gmail.comTIME CODEINTRO/ WHAT'S NEW - 00:00MOVIE REVIEW - 22:11THE COOL REPORT - 39:31ASK ME A QUESTION - 01:05:29PART TIME LOVER - 01:27:42OUTRO - 01:36:48

Pastor Joe Park shared from Daniel 1:8-17 on the theme of learning to be culturally savvy Christians in the world.

 Stuart and William don't see the listener questions before they press record. They don't really have guests. They explore these topics cold without preparation. Not trying to be the go-to experts as they feel there are enough out there already, they see themselves as the go-to guys who are willing to explore things cold.Scott, Arisaig, Scotland - “What are your biggest challenges personally in 2025, and what are the biggest culturally?”Stuart marched into 2025 armed with flipcharts, fire in his belly, and a dream of accessible fields for all. But by March, the flipcharts were supporting a sad-looking houseplant, and his greatest obstacle was not uneven terrain, but patience and acceptance toward his own ill-health. He'd tried yoga, herbal tea, and shouting at ducks—none worked.Meanwhile, William's job title changed so often it needed a loyalty card. One day consultant, next day “freelance strategist of vibes.” He embraced the chaos like a man at a buffet who forgot what he came for.Culturally, both were baffled. Stuart declared British culture was invisible but everywhere—like damp. William wondered if he was English, British, or just someone who owned a teapot and too many socks.Their shared mission? End othering, talk to strangers, and dismantle the great wall of cultural confusion one biryani-powered chat at a time. Because progress starts with a ramp—and maybe a really good biscuit.Jess, Bishop's Tatchbrook, Warwickshire, England - “Unless it's on the edge of disaster and on the precipice, humanity never seems to want to change, adapt and evolve. Discuss”.Stuart insists that “change,” “adapt,” and “evolve” are not synonyms, despite what motivational posters and management consultants would have us believe. Change, he says, is swapping oat milk for cow's milk and pretending it's just as good. Adapt is realising your oat milk curdles in tea but drinking it anyway. Evolve is becoming lactose-intolerant and being smug about it.William thinks the climate crisis is like waiting for a Hollywood meteor—we want a big dramatic moment before reacting. Meanwhile, Europe is quietly crisping like the forgotten toast languishing in the bottom of a bag belonging to a fellow Speedway supporter of Stuart's. He points out we've already had the disaster movie, we just missed the trailer.They agree: humanity is great at adapting... often in ways that make things worse. Evolution won't save us—it takes millennia, and we've barely got until next Thursday. But if individuals act, influence leaders, and maybe stop voting for people who think climate change is just “weather being moody,” there's hope.What do you make of this discussion?

Hello sunshine! How do you enter a new day? Do you slowly stretch into it, or do you immediately plug in to dopamine via technology and screens? Join Camille and Luis as they discuss how living seasonally and cyclically can be supportive and resourcing to our bodies. At one time everyone lived in tandem with the seasons.  Caffeine and electricity allowed our ancestors to break their own boundaries and nature's boundaries (of seasons, light, and temperature). This evolved into the dissociative "go go go crash" cycle, causing us to ignore the fatigue and exhaustion. Culturally this looks like overreach, personally it looks like burnout. Contributing to this mindset is the overcoupling of depression with the minimalism and stillness of winter. However, Fall and Winter are not about death, but about energy conservation in preparation for the productive seasons of Spring and Summer.  Join us as we harness the energy of the sun on Saturday, June 28, 2025 at 12pm EDT for a webinar where we sink more in to this juicy topic. When is your season of wintering in a year, month, and day? When is your season of rebirth and productivity in a year, month, and day? You can register for the webinar here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/events/living-seasonally-cyclically-how-i-recovered-from-burnoutYou can read more about, and register for, the Living Seasonally & Cyclically webinar here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/events/living-seasonally-cyclically-how-i-recovered-from-burnout You can read more about, and register for, the 6-month Embodied Nutrition group here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/slow-practice-nutrition-group----You can learn more on the website: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/ Learn more about the self-led course here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/self-led-new Join the waitlist to pre-order Luis' book here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/the-book You can follow Luis on Instagram @holistic.life.navigationQuestions?
