On today's show, we remember some friends of the show we've lost this year. Randy Dixon of the Pryor Center discusses the death of David Pryor, plus the life and music of Zakir Hussain.
As Paul addresses some of the problems with the church in Corinth, he is most concerned with how corporate worship is conducted. Is it a symphony of harmonizing parts for the common good? Does it build up all who are gathered? Temple – build up, edify: seven times (3, 4 (twice), 5, 12, 17, 26 Paul is using a metaphor related to building a temple, of building up the corporate Temple of the Holy Spirit, the Body of Jesus, Jesus himself being the True Temple. Peter uses the same metaphor: “You yourselves, like living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood…” I Pet. 2:5 As we consider prophecy and spiritual language (tongues), we need to hear Paul address how the church should function in worship so that all the gifts of the Spirit are offered FOR THE COMMON GOOD. "To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.” I Cor 12:7 In verse 2 forward, Paul clarifies the proper use of prophecy and tongues in public worship. As we make love our aim, the use of our spiritual gifts has a specific impact on all those gathered in worship. How shall we understand these two gifts? “2 For one who speaks in a tongue speak not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit.” 1. This spiritual language called tongues is not speaking horizontally, but vertically, i.e., to God… he utters mysteries in the Spirit. We understand that speaking to God is actually prayer, praise or worship directed towards God. So tongues is prayer, thanksgiving, in spoken word and song (14:15). 2. Speaking, singing, giving thanks in the Spirit (tongues) builds up the person employing the gift. Prophecy edifies the whole assembly. “ v. 4 The one who speaks in a tongue builds up himself , but the one who prophesies builds up the church.” Paul is saying that praying in tongues is a powerful means of strengthening one's life in Christ. Paul refers to the use of tongues in public as needing interpretation, and when in private devotion, interpretation isn't necessary (one is built up by speaking directly to God in prayer. Let me return to this. For now, one's prayer in tongues edifies, strengthens the person actively praying. Jude 20 20 But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith [and] praying in the Holy Spirit… KJV, NASV, RSV, NRSV do not add “and” … inferring how to build up your most holy faith, praying in the Spirit. Both Jude 20 and Romans 8:26-27 are interpreted by NT Scholars Gordon Fee and Peter Davids as praying in transcendent, trans-rational prayer language. They both refer to I Cor. 14:14-15. Praying in the Spirit? All forms of tongues are considered praying in the Spirit. Verse 5: Now I want you all to speak in tongues (public / private), but even more to prophesy. What is prophecy? A beginning definition might be “speaking forth something God has spontaneously brought to mind.” Michael Green's summary is another good working definition of prophecy: ‘a word from the Lord through a member of his body, inspired by his Spirit and given to build up the rest of the body.' Prophetic Impact (14:1–5) (I Corinthians by David Pryor) 1. Upbuilding: Any purported word of prophecy that undermines or shakes the faith of others must be rejected. conversation. (2) The second word is encouragement (paraklēsis), the same root as the word used in John to describe the Holy Spirit as Paraclete, Advocate, Counsellor. It literally means ‘to be called in alongside' to assist and support. (3) Paul's third word to describe how a true word of prophecy will help the church is consolation (comfort) (paramythia). This has the sense of whispering in the church's ear, probably in the sense of allaying fear and enabling God's people to be calm under pressure. ‘ If this is something of the impact prophecy can have on the church, it is no wonder that Paul wants every Christian to desire such a gift.
This Day in Legal History: Orval Faubus Resists Brown v. Board of EducationOn September 4, 1957, Arkansas Governor Orval Faubus made a highly controversial decision to call in the Arkansas National Guard to prevent nine Black students, known as the "Little Rock Nine," from entering Central High School. This action directly defied a federal court order mandating the integration of public schools, following the landmark 1954 Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education, which declared racial segregation in schools unconstitutional. Faubus argued that the move was necessary to prevent violence, but critics saw it as a blatant attempt to resist desegregation.The crisis quickly escalated into a national issue. President Dwight D. Eisenhower responded by deploying the 101st Airborne Division to Little Rock on September 24, 1957, and federalized the Arkansas National Guard to ensure that the students could safely attend school. This marked one of the most significant federal interventions in a state's civil rights matter during the 20th century. The standoff highlighted the ongoing resistance to civil rights in the South and the federal government's increasing role in enforcing civil rights legislation. Central High School became a symbol of the struggle to dismantle Jim Crow segregation, and the courage of the Little Rock Nine became a defining moment in the broader civil rights movement.After leaving the governorship, Orval Faubus made several unsuccessful attempts to reclaim his political position, running in the Democratic primaries in 1970, 1974, and 1986 but losing to prominent figures such as Dale Bumpers, David Pryor, and Bill Clinton. Despite these defeats, Faubus remained active in politics and made a surprising shift in the 1980s by supporting civil rights leader Jesse Jackson during the 1984 and 1988 Democratic presidential primaries. Faubus passed away from prostate cancer on December 14, 1994, and was laid to rest in Combs, Arkansas.Former U.S. President Donald Trump announced in a court filing that he would plead not guilty to the charges in a revised indictment accusing him of trying to overturn the 2020 election. The indictment, brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith, reiterates the original four charges, including fraud and obstruction related to the election's certification. Trump chose to waive his court appearance, allowing his attorneys to enter the plea on his behalf. The indictment was revised after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Trump has broad immunity from prosecution over actions taken during his presidency. Trump's legal team and prosecutors are set to meet to determine next steps following the court's decision.Trump to plead not guilty to charges in revised US indictment | ReutersA U.S. judge ruled that former President Donald Trump cannot move his New York hush-money case to federal court, denying his bid to delay sentencing beyond the November 2024 election. U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein stated that Trump's actions, involving hush-money payments to Stormy Daniels, were private and unrelated to his presidential duties, falling outside the bounds of federal jurisdiction. Trump argued the case should be dismissed based on the Supreme Court's ruling granting broad immunity to presidents for official conduct, but Hellerstein found the payments were not part of his official role. Trump has filed an appeal, continuing his efforts to transfer the case, while his sentencing remains scheduled for September 18. The case stems from Trump's conviction for falsifying business records related to a $130,000 payment to Daniels to suppress claims of a past affair during the 2016 campaign.Trump Loses Bid to Move NY Hush-Money Case to Federal Court (3)Starlink, Elon Musk's satellite broadband company, has complied with a Brazilian Supreme Court order to block access to the social media platform X in Brazil, after initially resisting the directive. The court's order, issued by Judge Alexandre de Moraes, included freezing Starlink's accounts to secure potential fines owed by X, which is also owned by Musk. Despite calling the freeze illegal, Starlink announced it would follow the court order. Brazil's telecom regulator, Anatel, confirmed that Starlink had begun restricting access to X. The platform was ordered blocked for lacking a legal representative in Brazil, a decision upheld by the Supreme Court. Starlink has since initiated legal proceedings challenging the order, arguing it violates Brazil's constitution. The conflict stems from a prior Moraes ruling that targeted X for spreading misinformation and hate speech, which Musk denounced as censorship. Some users in Brazil continue to access X through alternative methods like VPNs.Starlink backtracks, complies with order blocking X in Brazil, says regulator | ReutersA group of Republican-led states filed a lawsuit on September 3, 2024, seeking to block the Biden administration's new student loan relief plan. The lawsuit, filed in the Southern District of Georgia, claims the U.S. Education Department is overstepping its authority by pushing forward with a revised debt forgiveness plan after previous versions were halted by courts. This follows the Supreme Court's August 28 refusal to reinstate Biden's earlier loan forgiveness initiative. The latest plan, which targets borrowers with increasing loan balances or those in repayment for over 20 years, is being challenged for allegedly circumventing prior court injunctions. The states, including Missouri and Georgia, argue the plan is unlawfully advancing and seek an immediate restraining order. Biden has continued efforts to reduce student debt after his initial forgiveness plan, which aimed to cancel up to $20,000 in loans for millions, was struck down by the Supreme Court in 2023.Biden Student Loan Relief Plan Faces Fresh GOP-Led Lawsuit This is a public episode.

David Pryor of Planet DDS is back on “The Patient First Podcast,” and in this episode, we discuss a hot topic: how to successfully implement a new technology in a dental practice or DSO network to unlock its full potential. Overwhelmed with the vast array of innovative technologies currently available to choose from, it's all too easy for the well-intentioned decision-makers of dental care organizations to invest in solutions and systems which then don't get properly executed, and the benefits are never realized. In this interview, Dave and I excavate the core truth that sometimes gets buried by stats, figures and overthinking, and we render it down into actionable steps that decision-makers can take to ensure the successful implementation of technology across their network. I'm Dr. Bryan Laskin—dentist, entrepreneur, author and champion of technological solutions that make dentistry easier for both patients and providers.

Unlike in America, there is little debate between pro-gun control and pro-gun ownership lobbies in the UK. There is general public consensus against ownership of handguns, which is enforced under strict legislation. Despite these strong sentiments, the UK has not averted gun crime by any means. In the year ending 31 March 2019, there were a total of 6,759 firearm offences recorded in the England & Wales. This was an increase of 4% compared with the previous year and the highest recorded number since 7,040 in 2010/11. Handguns are most commonly used and rifles remain the least commonly used in firearm offences. In this episode the team are joined by Former Senior Forensic Scientist specialising in Firearms and Wound Ballistics and an internationally-renowned expert in the field, David Pryor. As the ballistics expert called to the scene of the shooting of Jill Dando, David’s analysis and subsequent evidence were critical to the case. In the episode he joins the Listening to the Dead team to discuss his memories of those frantic days and his years of experience in identifying ballistics evidence. Over six episodes, the team will investigate six causes of death: talking with experts, hearing how real life crime scenes are worked, exploring the latest innovations and discussing some famous cases.

Ep 217 | Aired 11/4/2020 After years of community service and an illustrious political career, my guest today on Up In Your Business with Kerry McCoy, Mr. Skip Rutherford, has decided to step out of the limelight this December and retire from his role as Dean of the Clinton School of Public Service. It was 1978 when Mr. Rutherford became interested in politics and volunteered to work on David Pryor’s first Senate run. Ten years later, Skip was named chairman for the Democratic Party of Arkansas and went on to assimilate an impressive resume spanning four decades. On today’s show, Mr. Rutherford talks about his first meeting and lifelong friendship with President Bill Clinton; what he said when he was asked to work on Governor Clinton’s presidential campaign; and why he chose, unlike his peers, to stay in Little Rock when President Clinton went to Washington. Listen to hear Skip’s story about what he mistakenly overlooked on the Clinton Library’s grand opening weekend in downtown Little Rock, Arkansas.

The passing this year of Dale Bumpers and Ray Thornton has stirred memories about the 1970s as a dramatic and transformative time in Arkansas politics. The decade was an era of moderation and modernization, “of happy hours and high times,” as described in a recent "Talk Business and Politics" article by John Brummett. In this program, Brummett will moderate a conversation about that decade with David Pryor, who ran two epic Senate races and served two terms as governor during it; Ernie Dumas, the legendary "Arkansas Gazette" journalist who covered it all; and Archie Schaffer, a former Tyson Foods executive and the nephew and executive secretary for Bumpers as governor and later campaign manager for Thornton in the famous 1978 race for the U. S. Senate. John Brummett is a columnist for the "Arkansas Democrat-Gazette" and a contributor to "Talk Business and Politics." He has worked for Arkansas newspapers for 46 years and as a columnist on politics since 1986.
