When a parish church is built, it is the recognition of the need we have to come together to worship God.

Churches are meant to be different and stand apart. Much like our own hearts are meant to be different and set apart for God.

This conversation was originally recorded and published in November, 2024. In light of Richard's passing, we wanted to share it again because his insights remain as inspiring and relevant as ever. We extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends and colleagues.

Jesus has rebuked the Pharisees for being spiritually blind, though they claim to be the spiritual leaders of God's people. Jesus is not like these men: he is the good shepherd who knows his sheep, calls them by name, and lays down his life for them. During the Festival of Dedication, which we know as Hanukkah, Jesus is cornered by Jews who demand that he plainly say whether or not he is the Messiah. Jesus responds by saying that his sheep know his voice, and that they don't believe because they aren't his sheep. They try to seize him, but escapes their grasp and retreats across the Jordan where John had been baptizing. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

This episode honors a brother gone home to Jesus by replaying his interview from RSM Podcast Frontline Servants (Episode 74). Nathan Thomas recounts his journey from a childhood call to preach, through 40 years of ministry across small churches in several states, to his service at Vinemont Christian Church. The program highlights his dedication to Christ, family, and community, shares stories of challenges and joys in ministry, and reflects on his concerns for church teaching and the next generation of believers.

Hey there Voices of the Bench community, this is Trish Jones with Ivoclar. If you've been curious about fast-firing zirconia to improve efficiency but aren't convinced it can deliver predictable, high-quality results, I'd encourage you to connect with us. Our new IPS Emax Zirconia offers multiple fast-fire protocols designed to help save you valuable production time while maintaining consistent results. Time is money in every lab. Don't wait. Reach out to your local Ivoclar rep today and discover how IPS Emax Zirconia can help streamline your workflow. As full-arch dentistry continues to grow, so do the demands on today's dental laboratories. That's why Knight Dental recently launched SimplyARCH Studio, a dedicated production environment built exclusively for full-arch restorations. To support this specialized workflow, Knight invested in an XTCERA milling system and carefully evaluated multiple CAM software solutions before choosing hyperDENT. The decision came down to exceptional milling quality, minimal hand finishing, and impressive production efficiency. But what truly set hyperDENT apart was the implementation process. From the very beginning, the team provided more than software training—they shared the knowledge and experience needed to build an optimized workflow for complex full-arch cases. With proven expertise in advanced milling strategies and laboratory production, hyperDENT helped ensure SimplyARCH Studio was designed for long-term success from day one. The Voices From the Bench microphones head to the FDLA Symposium for three conversations that perfectly capture what makes this industry so special. Thanks to the wonderful people at GPS Digital RPD, Elvis and Barb got to sit down with longtime friend Morris Fucarino to celebrate an incredible milestone—50 years as a CDT. Morris shares how he found his way into dental technology, what earning certification has meant throughout his career, and why he believes every technician should strive to be the best they can be. From belt-driven handpieces and gold crowns to running a successful one-man laboratory with just three loyal doctors, Morris proves that passion, relationships, and knowledge never go out of style. His stories are a reminder that while technology continues to change, craftsmanship and pride in your work remain timeless. Next, the conversation shifts to Enja Dorjchuluun from Sakr Dental Arts, who talks about helping lead one of Florida's fastest-growing laboratories while serving on the FDLA Board of Directors. She discusses the challenges of managing a lab spread across multiple buildings, the excitement of moving into a brand-new facility, and why giving back through organized dentistry has become such an important part of her career. From developing future technicians to creating educational opportunities and strengthening state associations, Enja shares why investing in people is every bit as important as investing in technology. To wrap things up, Elvis and Barb meet Joseph Núñez Reyes from GPS Digital Dental Lab, whose journey from Puerto Rico to Orlando is fueled by determination, curiosity, and a love for digital dentistry. After leaving biomedical engineering behind, Joseph found his passion in the dental laboratory, worked his way from the model room to supervising a modern CAM department, and now showcases laboratory workflows through social media to inspire the next generation of technicians. With dreams of one day returning to Puerto Rico to build a state-of-the-art laboratory, Joseph reminds us that the future of dental technology is in very capable hands. Ever notice the busiest labs aren't always the ones working the longest hours? They're usually the ones with a workflow that keeps moving—even after everyone heads home. Real productivity isn't about asking your team to do more; it's about having the right tools doing more for your team. That's where Roland's DGSHAPE DWX milling solutions really shine. Built to keep production moving whether you're milling a single case or running overnight, they free your technicians to focus on finishing cases, serving customers, and growing the business instead of babysitting equipment. That's what real productivity looks like: more output, fewer interruptions, and less time spent chasing problems. Because every hour your mill is producing is another hour your lab is creating value. If you're ready to get more from every production day, discover what Roland's DGSHAPE DWX milling solutions can do for your lab at rolanddental.com.Special Guests: Enja Dorjchuluun, Joseph Núñez Reyes, and Morris Fucarino CDT.

The sermon examines Jonah's immediate and wholehearted obedience to God's command in Jonah chapter 3, contrasting it with his previous disobedience. It highlights three key marks of true dedication: promptness in responding without delay, industriousness in enduring difficult tasks, and selflessness by denying personal desires for God's glory. The preacher urges believers to live according to the Word of God rather than seeking popularity or comfort, emphasizing that genuine faith requires humble action. Additionally, the message calls unsaved listeners to respond urgently to the gospel with the same earnestness and simplicity found in Jonah's proclamation. Ultimately, the text challenges the audience to commit their lives fully to serving Christ and sharing the truth of salvation.

Ashe in America and Ghost are back to unpack Season 4, Episode 6 of The Chosen, "Dedication," and this one is doing a lot at once. Expect a surprisingly deep detour into Alexander the Great and how his conquests reshaped the world Jesus and the disciples actually lived in, plus a spirited debate about which Bible verses tend to get conveniently trimmed by preachers who like half a promise more than the whole gospel. Hanukkah brings warmth, tradition, and family scenes worth savoring, but the hosts also dig into Judas's growing impatience, the quiet courage of an unlikely disciple in a moment of crisis, and a devastating letter that closes out the episode on a gut punch. Ashe and Ghost trade sharp character analysis with plenty of tangents, humor, and a shared appreciation for the show's attention to detail. It is equal parts Bible study, TV recap, and buddy banter, and it sets the stage for what they promise is a very big episode next week.

By 1942, news of the genocide had reached American shores—but to what extent were Americans made aware of its scale and purpose?    How do we explain why the story of mass murder was often minimized, buried, or delayed by the major American newspapers?

10AM Sunday Service - Baby Dedication

He was a man after God's own heart, a conqueror of giants, and the builder of an empire. Yet, a single evening on a rooftop changed everything. If Israel's most brilliant and wise kings could fall so completely to the flesh and the world, what does it take for us to stand steady today? Summary: In this heavy but necessary episode, we dive into the tragic and cautionary text of 2 Samuel 11 through 1 Kings 11. We analyze the United Kingdom of Israel at its absolute peak of wealth, wisdom, and power, and dissect the exact vulnerabilities that fractured a golden age. The Rooftop Blueprint: We map the micro-steps of David's tragedy—from staying home when he should have been at war, to seeing, looking, inquiring, and taking. We learn why the Savior raised the bar to the level of the heart to stop this momentum before it kills us spiritually. The Cost of the Cover-Up: We uncover the horrific length David went to in order to hide his sin, culminating in the calculated sacrifice of the fiercely loyal Uriah. Thou Art the Man: We break down Nathan's masterful parable of the ewe lamb and analyze why David was so blind to his own hypocrisy until the prophet held up the mirror. The Sins of the Children: We witness the agonizing reality of the law of the harvest as David reaps the whirlwind within his own family tree—exploring the tragedy of Amnon and Tamar, and the heartbreaking rebellion of Absalom. The Wisdom and Wealth of Solomon: We transition to 1 Kings to study Solomon's blank check from God. We celebrate his request for an "understanding heart" to judge with empathy rather than cold calculation, but trace how wealth, materialism, and political alliances slowly sapped his spiritual strength. The Temple vs. The Palace: We contrast the seven years spent building the House of the Lord with the thirteen years Solomon spent building his own massive palace, asking ourselves: "Whose kingdom are we truly trying to build?" Call-to-Action: Saul fell to pride, David fell to the flesh, and Solomon fell to worldliness. Which of these three areas is the adversary currently using to target your foundation? Let's have an honest, supportive discussion in the comments below.

Send me a Text Message!Nehemiah 12 is about a celebration and dedication. That word dedication means to set apart, to consecrate, to totally give over.  As the people were dedicating the  walls of Jerusalem, they were basically saying, "God everything inside of these walls belongs to you.  You are the builder of this city.  You are God of this city.  Not just the temple, the whole city.  The marketplace, the gates, the homes, the people, everything belongs to you." Dedication is more than a ceremony, it's a commitment.But here's the deal when we commit our lives to God, our lives will make a difference in our world. We'll leave a mark. If I could choose the goal of my life, I want to leave a mark with my heart!

Joseph Fournier discusses his Substack article proposing a “solar-driven glacial atmospheric dipole” to explain the Last Glacial Maximum contrast between ice-covered North Atlantic regions and ice-free Beringia. He reviews Milankovitch cycles, zonal vs meridional winds, ITCZ migration, Holocene aridity/desert formation around 4,200 years ago, and Neoglacial solar sensitivity. He focuses on how solar variability (UV, interplanetary magnetic field, energetic particle precipitation, cosmic rays) affects stratospheric polar vortices and couples to tropospheric indices (NAO, SAM), influencing clouds, sunshine, ocean circulation (AMO/AMOC), and glaciers, citing proxy reconstructions and Bond events.

Quick question: Name something former presidents have in common. How about: Begging for money! "I would say parenthetically that one of the things that brings former presidents closest together is the extremely onerous and burdensome task of begging for enough money to build a presidential library from private sources; not from the government, and then turn it over to the federal government in perpetuity as a repository for the records of our great nation." That was Jimmy Carter … speaking at the dedication of Ronald Reagan's Library … November 4th, 1991. On June 18th, 2026, another presidential library is dedicated: Barack Obama's. You might be wondering: how much do these things cost? Why should taxpayers support presidential libraries? What do political opponents say about each other at library dedications? What do losing presidents say about the guys who beat them? Which presidential library opening included protests and police intervention? And what was one of the most amazing things ever said on C-SPAN about presidential libraries – from a legendary presidential historian? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Most Christians think of inheritance in terms of money, land, or possessions. But what if one of the greatest inheritances God has given you is the place where you live? Your neighborhood, your city, your state, and even your nation are not accidents—they're part of the stewardship God has entrusted to you. In this first episode of our four-part America series, we explore the biblical call to seek the welfare of your place and why faithful Christian families have a responsibility to build, bless, and cultivate the communities around them. If you've ever wondered what it looks like to love your country without idolizing it, this conversation is for you.

Sunday Service (5/31/26) // New Building Dedication // Acts 16:6-10 (ESV) // The Macedonian Call // 6 And they went through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia. 7 And when they had come up to Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them. 8 So, passing by Mysia, they went down to Troas. 9 And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia was standing there, urging him and saying, “Come over to Macedonia and help us.” 10 And when Paul[a] had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go on into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.#BibleStudy #BibleExplained #Bible #BiblicalStudies #BibleTeacher #WordOfGod #BiblicalLessons #BibleJournal #BibleReading #BibleStudyNotes #biblestudycommunity #ChicagoChurch #BibleProject #BibleVerse #Bible #danielbatarseh #mbchicago #mbcchicago #dedication #grandopening Website: https://mbchicago.org FOLLOW US Facebook:   / mbc.chicago   Instagram:   / mbc.chicago   TikTok:   / mbc.chicago   Podcasts: Listen on Apple, Spotify & others TO SUPPORT US Zelle to: info@mbchicago.org Web: https://mbchicago.org/give Venmo: https://venmo.com/mbchurch DAF Donations: https://every.org/mbc.chicago PayPal/Credit: https://paypal.com/donate/?hosted_but...

In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study 2 Samuel 11–12 and 1 Kings 1–9, exploring the stories of David and Solomon and the lessons they teach about mercy, redemption, wisdom, and devotion. These chapters remind us that scripture is filled with imperfect people, and yet God continues to work through them, write them into His story, and accomplish His purposes through their lives. The episode begins with one of the most heartbreaking moments in David's life. His choices involving Bathsheba and Uriah reveal the consequences of sin and the pain that can follow when we lose sight of the Lord. Yet even in the middle of failure, God does not abandon David. Through Nathan's confrontation, David is invited to repent, and the story becomes a powerful reminder that mistakes do not place us beyond the reach of God's grace. The discussion highlights how redemption remains possible, even after our lowest moments, because God's work with us is not finished. From David's story, the focus shifts to Solomon, a young king who begins his reign with a sincere love for the Lord. When given the opportunity to ask God for anything, Solomon chooses an understanding heart. Dave and Grace reflect on what it means to see people the way God sees them and how experiences, relationships, and mercy can change the way we view others. Through Solomon's request, we are invited to seek wisdom, compassion, and greater understanding in our own lives. The episode concludes with Solomon's construction and dedication of the temple, a place built through sacrifice and devoted to God. As they study the promises found in the temple dedication prayer, Dave and Grace emphasize God's willingness to hear prayers, offer forgiveness, and welcome all who come seeking Him. Together, these chapters testify of a God who remains dedicated to His people, who redeems broken stories, grants wisdom to those who seek it, and invites everyone to draw closer to Him.

It was winter, 23 and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the colonnade of Solomon. John 10:24 So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.”   John 10:25-26 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name bear witness about me, 26 but you do not believe because you are not among my sheep.   John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.   John 10:28-29 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand.   John 10:30 I and the Father are one.”   John 10:31 The Jews picked up stones again to stone him.   John 10:32-33 Jesus answered them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you going to stone me?” 33 The Jews answered him, “It is not for a good work that we are going to stone you but for blasphemy, because you, being a man, make yourself God.”   John 10:34-36 Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your Law, ‘I said, you are gods'? 35 If he called them gods to whom the word of God came—and Scripture cannot be broken— 36 do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,' because I said, ‘I am the Son of God'?   John 10:37-38 If I am not doing the works of my Father, then do not believe me; 38 but if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.”   John 10:39 Again they sought to arrest him, but he escaped from their hands.   John 10:40-42 He went away again across the Jordan to the place where John had been baptizing at first, and there he remained. 41 And many came to him. And they said, “John did no sign, but everything that John said about this man was true.” 42 And many believed in him there.   The Shepherd knows us.   Psalm 139:1 O LORD, you have searched me and known me!   Psalm 139:13-14a For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. 14 I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.   Psalm 103:13-14 As a father shows compassion to his children, so the LORD shows compassion to those who fear him. 14 For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust. The Shepherd leads us. Psalm 32:8-9 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you. 9 Be not like a horse or a mule, without understanding, which must be curbed with bit and bridle, or it will not stay near you. Hebrews 13:20-21 Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant, 21 equip you with everything good that you may do his will, working in us that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen. The Shepherd cares for us.   Ezekiel 34:15-16 I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I myself will make them lie down, declares the Lord God. 16 I will seek the lost, and I will bring back the strayed, and I will bind up the injured, and I will strengthen the weak, and the fat and the strong I will destroy. I will feed them in justice.   Isaiah 40:11 He will tend his flock like a shepherd; he will gather the lambs in his arms; he will carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are with young. Psalm 145:14-16 The LORD upholds all who are falling and raises up all who are bowed down. 15 The eyes of all look to you, and you give them their food in due season. 16 You open your hand; you satisfy the desire of every living thing. The Shepherd assures us. 1 John 5:11-13 And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life.   Isaiah 43:1b “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.” Isaiah 41:10 fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Jude 24-25 Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy, 25 to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. Psalm 95:6-8a Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD, our Maker! 7 For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.

My mother died on June 11th, five years ago. This is the episode I recorded right after she passed. It's episode 300, and it's dedicated to her. What I didn't expect was what her last six months would teach me. About the matriarchy. About worthiness. About the hypermasculine drive that so many of us — myself very much included — run on until we can't anymore. And about what happens when you finally let yourself receive love instead of earn it. If you still have your mother here, you will want to call her after this one. In this episode: The real history of the matriarchy — and why it matters that it existed before the patriarchy How watching a parent die dismantles the story you've been living What hypermasculine burnout actually looks like from the inside What her last six months looked like — and why she was happier than she'd been in decades What "being enough" feels like when someone you love shows you it's true Timestamps: 00:00 — Dedication and why this episode exists 02:44 — The matriarchy: history, power, and what we lost 05:05 — Who my mother was 09:53 — What her life became my cautionary tale 12:16 — The hypermasculine drive and the burnout 14:37 — Her last six months and the miracle in them 17:05 — The room where she died 20:36 — What the matriarchy is asking of us now Links and Resources: Episode 3 with Kelly Knight on the Age of Aquarius: [link to episode 3] Free podcast strategy call: https://allisonhare.com/freecall Be sure to rate, review, and follow this podcast on your player and also, connect with me IRL for more goodness and life-changing stuff.Schedule a FREE podcast clarity call with me - Your future audience is out there.

My Sheep Know My Voice: The Good Shepherd Continued – John 10:22–42 In Episode 140 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue their journey through John 10 as Jesus boldly reveals His identity during the Feast of Dedication. In John 10:22–42, Jesus declares that His sheep hear His voice, He knows them, and no one can snatch them from His hand. As opposition intensifies, Jesus continues to point people to the evidence of His works and His unity with the Father. This passage is a powerful reminder of the security, assurance, and intimacy believers have in Christ. Together, Jamie and Jane explore what it means to recognize the Shepherd's voice, trust His leadership, and rest in the confidence that we belong to Him. Whether you're struggling with doubt, seeking direction, or longing for deeper intimacy with God, this conversation will encourage you to listen closely to the voice of the One who calls you by name. Am I listening to the voice of the Good Shepherd—or allowing other voices to shape my identity and direction? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

On June 18th, Barack Obama speaks at the dedication of his presidential library. What will he say? Well, here's what another president said when his library opened: "Proverbially, old men plant trees even though they do not expect to see their fruition. Well, so it is with presidents. The doors of this library are open now, and all are welcome. The judgment of history is left to you, the people. I have no fears of that, for we have done our best, and so I say, come and learn from it." That was Ronald Reagan ... November 4th, 1991 ... And joined by fellow former presidents George Bush, Gerald Ford, Richard Nixon — and the Democrat he defeated in 1980, Jimmy Carter. In the latest episode of C-SPAN's podcast "Extreme Mortman," we revisit 10 dedication and re-dedication ceremonies of presidential libraries - featuring best-of moments from each of them. What do presidents say about their libraries? What do presidents say about other presidents' libraries? And what do First Ladies say about their husbands' libraries? Find out in this week's "Extreme Mortman" — the first of a special two-part episode. And we're joined by a very special guest — presidential historian and author Dr. Tevi Troy.

The Weight You're Carrying — When the Exhaustion Isn't About the WorkThere's a kind of tired that sleep doesn't touch. You take the day off, sleep well, run a clean service — and still drive home feeling heavy. This episode is for the chef who keeps waiting for that weight to lift with one more vacation, one more good hire, one more season that doesn't crush them — and is starting to suspect it never will.Register for the free monthly Culinary Leadership Lab: a live working space for chefs ready to lead without losing themselves "This didn't start as obligation. It started as love."The Tired Sleep Doesn't TouchYou know the feeling. Solid service, food went out, team was locked in, guests were happy. You did everything right and you still feel heavy. Not frantic. Not chaotic. Just weighed down, and you can't quite name it.Here's the reframe that runs through the whole episode: what if that exhaustion isn't a sign you're weak or burned out or not cut out for this? What if it's information? Because the weight you're carrying usually isn't coming from the work. It's coming from something older than that.Emotional Labor Without AuthorshipThe chefs who show up most depleted almost never identify the right source of the weight. It's the hours. It's the team that won't step up. It's a business that never stops taking. All true. But underneath it, almost every time, there's something else — emotional labor without authorship.Managing the energy in a room, holding the container, absorbing the tension, keeping people steady — that's real work, and it costs something. In a kitchen it falls on the leader invisibly, without acknowledgement and without end. What makes it unbearable isn't the labor. It's doing it without ever consciously choosing it. It just accumulates. And what started as care becomes exhaustion. What started as love becomes weight you didn't even remember picking up. The Chef in the Black ForestYears ago, on a balcony in the Black Forest in Germany, Adam watched a chef step out a side door between lunch and dinner prep. No rush. He grabbed a basket and walked into the trees for 40 minutes — foraging, unhurried, present, like the work and the rest were part of the same thing instead of opposites.That image came home to a high-volume kitchen of ticket stacking and noise, and a belief that slowing down had to be earned. Adam kept telling himself the next job would feel right. Better kitchen, better team, better ownership. The next job came, and the one after that, and the feeling didn't — because the problem was never the kitchen. It was what he carried into every kitchen. He'd confused the weight with the love.------------------Stop chasing stars and start building a career that actually works. Join the National Champions at A-B Tech in Asheville for hands-on training that respects the hustle without losing the soul. Real tools for real chefs .------------------- How We Got ConditionedWe came into this with open hearts. We fell in love with the craft, with the choreography of a kitchen firing on all cylinders. But the industry we walked into had a very specific set of ideas about what dedication looked like, and we absorbed them before we had language to question them. Dedication looked like staying the longest. Commitment looked like absorbing the most. Caring looked like never setting anything down.So we learned to conflate sacrifice with love — to treat the weight as proof of our investment. Nobody handed us a contract to hold other people's motivation as our personal responsibility. It happened through the culture, through the chefs who modeled it, through an industry that rewarded endurance over presence and called it excellence. That's not a character flaw. That's conditioning. What's Actually in the BagThe first step out is naming what's actually in there. You carry other people's moods — you read the room before you read the board. You carry other people's motivation, feeling responsible when someone won't perform. You carry unspoken expectations you never agreed to. And you carry the gap between the chef you imagined you'd be and the chef the business requires you to be. Most of us carry it all silently, as if it's just part of the deal. It doesn't have to be.The Authorship ResetWhen did you stop choosing this? Not when did it get hard — when did you move from *I choose this* to *I don't have a choice?* Because choosing nothing is still a choice, and choices can be revisited. The refrain to take from this episode: this didn't start as obligation. It started as love. Love without authorship turns into obligation. Obligation without boundaries turns into resentment. And resentment is just love that's lost its way.The reset is three steps — on paper, not in your head. One: name what you're carrying that isn't yours. Two: name what you're choosing today. Three: release one expectation you never agreed to. Pick one. Just one. The reset isn't a reinvention. It's a reclamation.-----------------------You wouldn't run a kitchen with broken equipment, so why are you redlining your own body?

What if the sacrifices you make aren't actually about service... but identity? In this episode of Friday Field Notes, Ryan Michler breaks down the dangerous trap many men fall into: building their entire identity around suffering, responsibility, and sacrifice. Drawing from philosophy, psychology, and personal experience, Ryan explores how men unconsciously become martyrs - believing their worth is tied to how much pain they can endure. From Carl Jung's concept of the persona and shadow, to Stoic philosophy and Sartre's idea of "bad faith," this episode challenges men to ask a difficult question: Are you sacrificing for something... or sacrificing as something?   SHOW HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 - The Question That Changed Everything 01:05 - Becoming "The Responsible One" 03:35 - The Persona Men Build 05:35 - When Suffering Becomes Identity 06:45 - The Trap of Proving Your Worth 07:20 - Sartre and "Bad Faith" 09:20 - The Mindset of the Martyr 10:40 - Stoicism and Virtuous Suffering 12:15 - Why Men Perform Sacrifice 13:20 - Carl Jung and the Shadow 15:15 - The Hidden Patterns of Martyrdom 16:00 - Keeping Score in Relationships 17:10 - Why Martyrs Refuse Help 18:50 - Resentment Disguised as Dedication 21:05 - "I Had No Choice" 22:15 - Why Nobody Loves a Martyr 24:05 - Martyrdom vs Purpose 25:05 - The Story Your Kids Learn From You 26:15 - Losing Yourself in Responsibility 27:30 - How to Break the Pattern 28:00 - Name the Performance 28:50 - Reclaim Your Sovereignty 29:55 - The Boy Still Carrying the Weight 31:20 - Conscious vs Compulsive Sacrifice 32:10 - Building Identity Beyond Suffering 33:20 - A Man Who Knows Who He Is 34:35 - The Epictetus Quote 35:20 - Learning to Put the Weight Down 36:10 - Suffering With Purpose 37:00 - Final Thoughts on Martyrdom 37:45 - Share This With Another Man Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!

Today, I have the honor of interviewing Dr. Doris Day, a board-certified dermatologist who specializes in cosmetic and longevity dermatology. She is also a clinical professor of dermatology at NYU, recognized for her dedication and excellence in teaching, and is widely regarded as a leader in the aesthetic dermatology field. In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Day is a medical journalist and a prominent media figure. In our discussion, we examine the basics of perimenopause and menopause from a pathophysiology perspective, including the 30% decline in collagen synthesis that occurs during the first five years of menopause. We explore the skin microbiome, inflammation, and inflammaging, and why hydration, electrolytes, reducing processed sugars, and eating a nutrient-dense diet can have such a visible impact on skin health. Dr. Day also explains her approach to facial balancing and how our bones, fascia, muscles, and fat pads age. We discuss topical agents, advanced interventions including lasers, microneedling, PRF, PRP, stem cells, and growth factors, and even touch on emerging research suggesting that certain laser treatments may help reduce the risk of skin cancer. Throughout the conversation, I also openly shared what I have done to support my skin. Stay tuned for today's fascinating conversation about menopause, skin health, collagen loss, and the evolving science behind modern aesthetic dermatology. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: The sudden skin changes many women experience during early perimenopause Dr. Day explains how she personalizes skincare routines for each patient How collagen synthesis rapidly declines during the menopause transition How hydration, sleep, and nutrition can visibly improve skin tone and puffiness How inflammation, blood sugar issues, and poor metabolic health contribute to inflammaging and visible skin aging Why facial balance is more important than trying to erase every wrinkle or line Dr. Day shares how she combines lasers, topicals, and recovery protocols to support skin healing and collagen production How fillers and other cosmetic procedures can create an unnatural appearance when used incorrectly Bio: Dr. Doris Day, MD, is a board-certified dermatologist specializing in cosmetic and longevity dermatology.
