Exploring C. S. Lewis' 1945 essay "Talking About Bicycles" with Daniel Payne from the Lamp-Post Listener podcast. As he talks about bicycles, Lewis points out that there seem to be 4 stages to being enchanted by something wonderful. First, before we've been enchanted and know nothing of it - this, he calls "unenchantment." Second, when we first become enchanted by something wonderful - "enchantment". Third, when we become disillusioned by the thing. This is "disenchantment." Fourth, when we, fully accepting of the things limitations, become "re-enchanted" by how wonderful it really is. We discuss how this impacts how we can share the Gospel in a disenchanted age, as well as, how it helps us reflect on the Gospel during the Advent season.

Part 1:We talk with Simon Montlake, reporter for the Christian Science Monitor about the impact of 3rd party candidates. Whom are they likely to hurt or help during the 2023 campaign? We talk about the kinds of voters who are most likely to vote for them, and what is likely to be the most important factor that they will consider.Part 2:We talk with Daniel Payne and Erin Schumaker, Politico reporters. We discuss the changes taking place in health care. There is a shortage of health care workers, and more doctors are specializing, rather than going into general family practice. The work involved in dealing with insurance companies, the government, etc. is a burden on individuals, so many opt to join large groups, which are often owned by private equity. Patients are often treated by non-doctor practitioners, such as nurse practitioners, medical assistants, etc.  WNHNFM.ORG   production

From a Pulitzer Prize winner, a powerful history that reveals how the twin strands of liberty and slavery were joined in the nation's founding. New attention from historians and journalists is raising pointed questions about the founding period: was the American revolution waged to preserve slavery, and was the Constitution a pact with slavery or a landmark in the antislavery movement? Leaders of the founding who called for American liberty are scrutinized for enslaving Black people themselves: George Washington consistently refused to recognize the freedom of those who escaped his Mount Vernon plantation. And we have long needed a history of the founding that fully includes Black Americans in the Revolutionary protests, the war, and the debates over slavery and freedom that followed. We now have that history in Edward J. Larson's insightful synthesis of the founding. With slavery thriving in Britain's Caribbean empire and practiced in all of the American colonies, the independence movement's calls for liberty proved narrow, though some Black observers and others made their full implications clear. In the war, both sides employed strategies to draw needed support from free and enslaved Blacks, whose responses varied by local conditions. By the time of the Constitutional Convention, a widening sectional divide shaped the fateful compromises over slavery that would prove disastrous in the coming decades. Larson's narrative delivers poignant moments that deepen our understanding: we witness New York's tumultuous welcome of Washington as liberator through the eyes of Daniel Payne, a Black man who had escaped enslavement at Mount Vernon two years before. Indeed, throughout Larson's brilliant history it is the voices of Black Americans that prove the most convincing of all on the urgency of liberty. Edward J. Larson is the author of many acclaimed works in American history, including the Pulitzer Prize–winning history of the Scopes Trial, Summer for the Gods. He is University Professor of History and Hugh and Hazel Darling Chair in Law at Pepperdine University, and lives with his family near Los Angeles. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/steve-richards/support

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.
