As women contributed to the cause of the church in the early 20th century, they faced the challenge of juggling professional and domestic tasks, often caring for multiple generations while providing financial for the family, yet were often paid less - even half as much - as their male counterparts.  Despite working themselves into the ground, women continued to work for the benefit of their church, and Alma McKibbin was one of them. But Alma barely made it out alive.  Thank you to our guest, Laura Wibberding, Assistant Professor of History and Department Chair, Pacific Union College.  Explore More Article | Alma KcKibbin - https://encyclopedia.adventist.org/article?id=AIPT&highlight=Alma|Mckibbin  Book | A manual of lessons in Old Testament history for academic grades, by Alma McKibbin - https://lccn.loc.gov/18003993  Book | "Step by Step: The Story of Alma McKibbin" (1964) - by Alma McKibbin Book | "My Sister Alma and I" (1980) - Alonzo McKibbin Article | Sarah Peck - https://encyclopedia.adventist.org/article?id=AJI9&highlight=sarah|peck  Archive | Pacific Union College Archives - https://library.puc.edu/library/content/heritage/archives-special-collections  Article | The Sandwich Generation - Pew Research - https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2013/01/30/the-sandwich-generation/  This episode discusses Alma McKibbin and Sarah Peck, Jenny Irland, Minnie Sipe, and Alonzo McKibbin.

What financial lessons can we learn from a tax collector who climbed a tree? Stay tuned and find out.Of course, you know I'm talking about Zacchaeus in Luke 19. That story is filled with important teachings about money, stewardship, and generosity. Dr. Kelly Rush joins us today with some interesting observations about the life of Zacchaeus.Dr. Kelly Rush is a Professor of Finance, Department Chair, and Financial Planning Program Coordinator at Mount Vernon Nazarene University in Ohio. The Cultural and Financial Context of ZacchaeusIn first-century Israel, political, social, and religious divides were as prevalent as they are today. Labels like Pharisee, Sadducee, and zealot carried heavy connotations, just as terms like Democrat or Republican do in our culture. Among the most despised figures in Jewish society were the tax collectors, or publicans, who collected tribute for the oppressive Roman Empire.A publican acted as a financial middleman, collecting various taxes such as road tolls, harbor dues, and purchase levies. Chief publicans, like Zacchaeus, oversaw entire regions and often amassed great wealth by overcharging and exploiting their fellow Jews. Essentially, publicans were seen as greedy traitors who profited from an unjust economic system—what we would call white-collar criminals today.Zacchaeus' position as chief publican meant he was not just a participant but a leader in this corrupt system. However, his story took a radical turn when he encountered Jesus.A Life-Changing Encounter with JesusIn Luke 19, Jesus is passing through Jericho, heading to Jerusalem for Passover. Despite being days away from His crucifixion, Jesus takes the time to walk through the town, looking for Zacchaeus.Zacchaeus, unable to see over the crowd because of his short stature, humbles himself by climbing a sycamore tree to catch a glimpse of Jesus. In a moment of divine grace, Jesus stops, looks up, and calls Zacchaeus by name, inviting Himself to his house. This moment showcases a beautiful truth: while Zacchaeus was seeking Jesus, Jesus was already seeking him.The turning point in Zacchaeus' story comes when he joyfully receives Jesus and declares his willingness to make restitution:He pledges to give half of his possessions to the poor. He commits to repaying anyone he has cheated four times the amount—going far beyond the Old Testament requirement of returning stolen goods plus 20% (Leviticus 6).This response highlights a powerful principle: true financial transformation begins with a changed heart. Zacchaeus' generosity wasn't an attempt to earn salvation, but a response to the salvation he had already received.Lessons from Zacchaeus' Financial TestimonyJesus Seeks the Lost, No Matter Their Financial PastZacchaeus' reputation was well known, yet Jesus didn't shy away from him. Instead of condemnation, Jesus offered restoration. No financial mistake is too great for God to redeem. Repentance Leads to ActionZacchaeus' turnaround was immediate and public. He didn't just feel remorse; he acted decisively to make things right. This challenges us to evaluate our own finances and take bold steps toward integrity and generosity. Money Reflects the HeartHow we handle our finances reflects what's happening inside of us. Zacchaeus' newfound generosity was evidence of his transformed heart. Salvation Precedes StewardshipJesus declared, "Today salvation has come to this house" (Luke 19:9), showing that salvation is a free gift, not a reward for financial generosity. Stewardship is simply our response to God's grace.Many people struggle with shame over their financial decisions, preferring to keep them hidden from God and others. Zacchaeus, however, openly acknowledged his financial failures and took steps to correct them. His story reminds us that God's grace covers our past, and He calls us into a new future of faithful stewardship.Zacchaeus' story ends with a bold proclamation: "Look, Lord, here and now I give!" His financial testimony stands as a powerful example of what happens when we allow Jesus to transform not just our hearts, but our wallets as well.Let Zacchaeus' example inspire you to take an honest look at your finances, surrender them to God, and trust Him to guide you in stewardship that honors Him.Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly PublicationYou can read Dr. Kelly Rush's full article on Zacchaeus in our new quarterly publication, Faithful Steward.

Colin Harris speaks with Dr. Jenellen Good about issues like climate change, technology, and eco-spirituality. They discuss how these issues are communicated, both societally and educationally, and the role these issues play within the education system. Dr. Good is currently the Department Chair of Communication, Popular Culture and Film at Brock University in Ontario. She is also a professor at Brock University researching the role of communication in how people relate to the “natural environment.” More specifically, she explores intersections of screens and the climate crisis, materialism, eco-spirituality and media/digital literacy.

Should We Give Teachers Matches? With Alex Auriemma  Description:Back in September I released episode 218 titled “Teacher Evaluation is Broken.” Before I recorded that episode I had been thinking about the topic, and today's guest and I actually recorded the conversation you are about to listen to prior to me recording number 218. I'm not sure why I decided to hold onto this episode so long, but it is time for it to see daylight. This episode is a discussion, not an interview. I hope you will feel like you are a part of this discussion. Hearing to leaders tear into the teacher evaluation and teacher growth processes should be healthy for you. By the end of the discussion, my hope is you have increased clarity on how you support and grow your teachers. Guest Bio:Alexandra Auriemma is a New York based educator and leader with over 10 years of experience working in the NYC public school system.  Formerly an English Language Arts teacher, Department Chair, and Instructional Coach, she now works as a Co-Principal at 6-12 school in Queens.  In addition to her service to New York City, she also has written and implemented curriculum for a private tutoring company in Shanghai, China.  She is passionate about curriculum and instruction, empowering educators within their classroom domain, and investing capital in human relationships.   Warmup questions:·      We always like to start with a celebration. What are you celebrating today?·      Is there a story that will help listeners understand why you are doing what you do? Questions/Topics/Prompts·      In our pre-conversation, we each came at the issue of teacher growth from opposite sides. You took the role of the AP who just wants to help her teachers get better. I took the role of the teacher who is resistant.·      Let's each share our own starting point, the assumptions we made about why we were there, and about the other person.·      Before we begin working towards the middle, let's define where it is and why it is important. What does the middle look and sound like?·      What are the barriers for each of us in getting to the middle space?·      What do I, as the teacher, need to know and be able to do to get to the middle?·      What do you as the leader need to know and be able to do?·      What processes and frameworks can help us continue this journey? Closing questions:·      What part of your own leadership are you still trying to get better at?·      If listeners could take just one thing away from today's podcast, what would it be?·      Before we go, is there anything else that you'd like to share with our listeners?·      Where can people learn more about you and your work… Sponsorship:I want to thank IXL for sponsoring this podcast… Everyone talks about the power of data-driven instruction. But what does that actually look like?

In this week's episode of then & now, we present a recording of a recent event hosted by the UCLA History Department, "Why History Matters: Reproductive Rights and Justice." This event brought together experts to explore the far-reaching effects of the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision in June 2022. Hosted by Kevin Terraciano, the conversation delves into the historical misuse of legal doctrines to limit reproductive freedoms and calls for a comprehensive reproductive justice framework that extends beyond abortion to include the right to have or not have children and to raise children in safe environments. Professor Cary Franklin critiques the Supreme Court's "history and tradition" test in Dobbs, arguing it distorts historical perspectives on liberty and equality, while Dean Alexandra Minna Stern discusses the lasting impacts of eugenic sterilization on marginalized groups, emphasizing how patterns of reproductive oppression persist today. Professor Elizabeth O'Brien examines Mexico's recent Supreme Court rulings decriminalizing abortion and highlights grassroots activism's role in shaping a broader framework for reproductive rights in Latin America. In the U.S., maternal mortality and preventable deaths have risen sharply since the Dobbs decision, underscoring the panel's call for historical research to inform advocacy as surveillance and criminalization of reproductive health grow. Through these comparative perspectives, the discussion powerfully illustrates how understanding historical contexts can guide efforts to protect and expand reproductive rights in the U.S.Kevin Terraciano is a Professor and the Department Chair of History at UCLA. He specializes in Latin American history, especially Mexico and the Indigenous cultures and languages of central and southern Mexico. Among many books and translations, he is the author of The Mixtecs of Colonial Oaxaca: Ñudzahui History, Sixteenth through Eighteenth Centuries, a comprehensive study of Mixtec society and their adaptation to colonial rule.Cary Franklin is the McDonald/Wright Chair of Law at UCLA and serves as the faculty director of the Williams Institute at UCLA as well as the Center on Reproductive Health, Law, and Policy.

Empowering the practice of architecture to achieve consistent, predictable, positive impacts on human well-being and planetary health is perhaps one of the most pressing topics in the AEC today. Starting with a review of the history of the search for Bioclimatic Law, this conversation with Dr Bill Braham, FAIA is an invitation to architects to reclaim their power. Bioclimatic Law is the relationship between architecture and life. In practice “life” is more narrowly defined by architecture as “comfort” or “comfort, health and well-being”. At its core bioclimatic design asks “What are the climate opportunities?”. The basic principle is to start with a clear understanding of the ambient climate and map those inputs to the design of the building - its massing, orientation, enclosure systems, and window sizes, locations, and shading devices. Beyond these truly passive methods, there are always active systems involved in maintaining a balance between heat flowing into the building and heat sources within the building.Our buildings mediate between the external climate and our lives. From a thermal perspective, actively managing the enclosure can lead to comfortable indoor conditions 60-80% of the time in most climates. From a well being perspective, as the external climate becomes more unpredictable and severe we have an opportunity to improve the quality of the lived experience of the buildings we deliver to ourselves to protect and shelter us. Join Kristof as he and Bill enjoy a thoughtful, wide-ranging discussion about the role of architecture in society and the role of buildings as extensions of our lives and goals. Big picture, we also want to thank you for being listeners who, in our increasingly soundbite world, appreciate the depth, breadth and subtlety of conversations like this. We're happy that you're noticing and valuing that we “go there” in these idea exchanges. Please keep your emails and comments coming.Bill BrahamWilliam Braham, PhD, FAIA is a Professor of Architecture at the University of Pennsylvania, where he previously served as Department Chair and Chair of the Faculty Senate, and is currently Director of the Master of Environmental Building Design and of the Center for Environmental Building + Design.

Time to take charge of your future? Design Your New Life in Retirement ________________________ Transitioning to retirement comes with challenges. And what if you love the work you're retiring from? That makes it harder. Our guest today, Cathy Bishop-Clark shares her experiences in transitioning to retirement - and why you'll want to have a retirement mentor. Cathy Bishop-Clark joins us from Ohio. ________________________ Bio Cathy Bishop-Clark recently retired after a 34-year career at Miami University of Ohio. She finished her career as Associate Provost of Miami's regional campuses.  and Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Applied Sciences. Prior to her Dean position, she was a professor in the Computer and Information Technology Department, a Department Chair, Assistant Dean and Associate Dean. She has a bachelor's degree in Computer Science, an M.S. in Quantitative Analysis and a doctorate in Educational Foundations.  Over a period of 34 years she taught a variety of computing classes and she has published over 40 articles and a book, most of which related to the scholarship of teaching and learning. She enjoys exercise and new adventures including hiking, kayaking, camping bicycling, learning new things, and traveling.  A couple years ago she rode her bicycle across America. She and her husband (who was a third grade teacher) have two adult daughters and a son-in-law. Cathy and her husband both retired a year ago.  While her husband has excelled at retirement, Cathy has found the transition more difficult.  To help her learn about that transition she took Joe Casey's group program, intensely studied retirement and taught a course on the topic of retirement this past Spring. ________________________ Mentioned in This Episode Riley Moynes Andy Robin Barbara O'Neill ________________________ Podcast Episodes You May Like If You Love Your Work, What Challenges Will You Face in Retirement? – Michelle Pannor Silver The Power of Reinvention – Joanne Lipman Live Life in Crescendo – Cynthia Covey Haller _________________________ Wise Quotes  On Having a Retirement Mentor "...and he talked about one thing that really resonated with me that I have paid attention to - and that is having a retirement mentor. You don't think about that right? Everybody thinks about having a work mentor. We have mentors at work and I had  done this in a way before I retired. I invited people who had retired to lunch and I said Okay what do I need to know about retirement? But the thing is everybody's retirement journey is so different and so some would say things like There's nothing to know about retirement. It's it's so easy and it's so great and there's nothing to learn. And other people would say Well, you know I struggled a lot with the schedule." And so interestingly, my retirement mentor has been the same career mentor that I had and she retired about five years ahead of me. I admire what she has done and so I continue to use her as my retirement mentor." On Trying New Things "So first for about a year a half, you just have a great big honeymoon. It's just fun, fun, fun, fun, fun. And then you start looking at different things to do. And then you start feeling a loss. Well, I think I simultaneously, like on day one, jumped in on all three things simultaneously. So I did vacation, in fact, and since we retired in May, I've been on nine different trips and I've been to Colorado many times, that's where my daughters are, Norway, Michigan, New York, Galapagos Islands. So we did lots of honeymooning and vacation. And then at the same time, I did a lot of experimentation. I took some new classes through a retirement group. I explored some new things, with my husband, we explored some new faith communities. We hired a personal trainer. I got into yoga. I started to deeply understand our financial planning. I had known it as a superficial level.

It's human nature to be concerned about having enough, but would you know it when you get there?It's a question we don't ask ourselves enough…how much is enough? We have a great story in the Bible that gives us a clue, and Dr. Kelly Rush joins us today to talk about it.Dr. Kelly Rush is a Professor of Finance, Department Chair, and Financial Planning Program Coordinator at Mount Vernon Nazarene University in Ohio. Understanding Lifestyle CreepIf you're unfamiliar with the concept of "lifestyle creep," it's where individuals tend to spend more on lifestyle comforts and luxuries as they earn more money. For example, a college student on a Taco Bell budget may progress to eating at Panera and eventually to dining at more expensive restaurants like the Cheesecake Factory as their income increases.Lifestyle creep isn't limited to dining choices. It affects various aspects of life, including vacations, clothing, entertainment, and cars. For instance, a high school student might start with an old Ford Taurus, but they may drive a luxury car like a Mercedes or BMW by their peak earning years. This progression happens gradually and can lead to significant lifestyle changes over time.Is Lifestyle Creep Wrong?Increases in lifestyle spending can be healthy and motivating but can also be a slippery slope if left unchecked. It's essential to monitor our budgets and hearts to avoid falling into the trap of excessive spending.Lifestyle creep is fundamental to the human condition and not just a result of cultural norms. There are parallels to the biblical story of Lot, who progressively moved closer to the affluent and corrupt city of Sodom, illustrating that the desire for more is a timeless human trait.Lessons from Lot's StoryLot's story in Genesis 13 shows how he chose the greener pastures of Sodom for greater financial gain, eventually becoming influential in the corrupt city. This progression highlights the dangers of prioritizing wealth and lifestyle over spiritual and moral values.While Sodom is often associated with sexual sins, Ezekiel 16:49-50 reveals that their iniquity also included arrogance, gluttony, idleness, and neglect of the poor and needy. Wealth gave them a false sense of superiority and security, leading to their downfall.Avoiding Lot's MistakesTo avoid the pitfalls of lifestyle creep, it's crucial to set financial finish lines—real dollar limits on spending that help define "how much is enough."
