DescriptionYou are in for a treat today…you are about to enter “evangelizing catechesis heaven”. If there is one thing that I believe about teaching and preaching it is that “when you teach, preach!” Catechists can no longer (and this has been true for a long time) assume that the people they are teaching have a real life relationship with Jesus. So…all of our teaching has to be imbued with the core Gospel message. But HOW?? How do you do this? Well this is exactly what we dig deeply into today! And I am pumped for you to check it out!BioDr. James Pauley is Professor of Theology and Catechetics and editor of The Catechetical Review at Franciscan University of Steubenville. He is the author of two books focused on the renewal of catechesis: An Evangelizing Catechesis: Teaching from Your Encounter with Christ and Liturgical Catechesis in the 21st Century: A School of Discipleship . Dr. Pauley began working as a parish catechetical leader in 1989 and has served professionally in parish, diocesan, and university catechetical formation for more than thirty years. Having received his Doctorate in Sacred Theology from the Liturgical Institute at the University of St. Mary of the Lake in 2014, he enjoys serving as a frequent speaker in dioceses and parishes nationwide on a variety of topics related to evangelization, catechesis, and the transformative sacramental encounter. Dr. Pauley is married to Katrina, and they are blessed with three daughters.Link to Evangelizing Catechesis book:https://www.amazon.com/dp/1681924323/ref=mes-dp?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=DUOSP&content-id=amzn1.sym.27ff3460-3571-4b3a-9a28-9e9ebed7694a&pf_rd_p=27ff3460-3571-4b3a-9a28-9e9ebed7694a&pf_rd_r=Y2DHAC109F5MTTZJPC1R&pd_rd_wg=EQ0CO&pd_rd_r=329769cb-ccf0-4f36-8c68-ceab749dad70 Link to Liturgical Catechesis book:https://www.amazon.com/Liturgical-Catechesis-21st-Century-Revised/dp/1616716819/ref=sr_1_2?qid=1683257851&refinements=p_27%3AJames+C.+Pauley&s=books&sr=1-2&text=James+C.+PauleyLink to the Catechetical Review journal:https://franciscanathome.com/crLinksFor more information about the Better Preach Podcast visit: www.ryanohara.org/betterpreachBetter Preach Podcast is now on YouTube.

In this crucial episode of Self Talk, Dr. Ray warns listeners to beware of a church or denomination that teaches the gifts of the Holy Spirit, such as prophecy, tongues, and healing, are no longer valid for today. This teaching distorts scripture, forcing it to align with preconceived ideas, and it's perilous. It can even border on blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. 2Pe 2:1 But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves.  Help Dr. Self continue this show - partner at www.icmcollege.org/donate  Answer your call by enrolling with the International College of Ministry at www.icmcollege.org/enroll  Purchase Dr. Ray's latest book, "The Call."

The Great Simplification with Nate Hagens ✓ Claim : Read the notes at at podcastnotes.org. Don't forget to subscribe for free to our newsletter, the top 10 ideas of the week, every Monday --------- For many people today, the idea of societal collapse is unimaginable. Yet history shows that well-established civilizations have fallen again and again – often for similar reasons. In fact, the same forces that build empires can also culminate in their downfall. How can understanding these historical patterns help us prepare for similar existential risks we may already be facing today?  In this episode, Nate is joined by existential risk researcher Luke Kemp to explore the intricate history of societal collapse – connecting patterns of dominance hierarchies, resource control, and inequality to create societies which he calls Goliaths. Together, they delve into the deep history of what egalitarian humans were like before complex civilizations emerged, and the changes in climate and agriculture that created the conditions for hierarchical societies. Luke explains how these very same factors have culminated in the rise and fall of Goliaths, and how these have led to today's global challenges such as nuclear warfare and even AI-fueled surveillance states.  Can knowing our past help us avoid repeating it? Are we in collapse now, and was this civilizational trajectory inevitable? How does the study of civilizational collapse help us grasp the best and worst of humanity – and can we use that knowledge to lean into the better sides of ourselves and put ourselves on a different, more resilient path? (Conversation recorded on August 6th, 2025)     About Luke Kemp: Luke is a Research Affiliate at the Centre for the Study of Existential Risk (CSER) and Darwin College at the University of Cambridge. His research focuses on understanding the history and future of extreme global risk. Luke has advised the WHO and multiple international institutions, and his work has been covered by media outlets such as the BBC, New York Times, and the New Yorker. He holds both a Doctorate in International Relations and a Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies with first class honours from the Australian National University (ANU). His first book, titled Goliath's Curse: The History and Future of Societal Collapse, was published in 2025 and is now available.   Show Notes and More Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

He brings a deep commitment to relationship-centered practice, equitable access, and systems-level change.  Dr. Steffner is the Founder and Chief Training Officer of Restorative Leadership Consulting LLC, where he specializes in restorative practices, behavioral interventions, behavioral threat assessment, master scheduling, mentoring, and mediation.

Are you hooked on a feeling? Soul ties are meant to be good, healthy, and from God, but when the enemy uses them for his purposes, they must be broken. When we have agreed with the enemy in any area, we must acknowledge the agreement, repent, and renounce until the soul tie is broken. Never before have we had visual simulation in the way we do today. TV, movies, and videos can open you up to a soul tie, causing you to relate deeply to something that isn't of God. Horror movies especially mix fear with fascination. The enemy is working to make it so that you are not a threat to his kingdom. But don't fall for his schemes. Don't train yourself with fear. Train yourself to overcome fear with the Name of Jesus.

Ever wonder why you still feel hungry after drinking a sugary soda? It turns out fructose doesn't trigger the same fullness signals in your brain that other sugars do. In this episode, I break down the science of fructose and how it affects your body differently than the natural sugars found in whole fruits. We explore how excess fructose from sodas, processed foods, and fruit juices can lead to fat buildup in your liver, raise your triglyceride levels, and increase your risk for metabolic dysfunction associated with liver disease. I also discuss how fructose impacts your heart health by causing inflammation and stiffness in your blood vessels, which can raise blood pressure. Plus, we talk about the connection between high uric acid levels from fructose and kidney damage over time. Tune in to learn practical steps you can take this week to reduce added sugars without feeling deprived, including simple swaps that protect your liver, heart, and kidneys.   Episode Highlights: The difference between natural fructose in whole fruits versus processed fructose  How the liver processes fructose  The impact of fructose on weight gain and hunger signals Cardiovascular effects of excess fructose The connection between fructose, uric acid levels, and kidney health Practical strategies to reduce fructose intake   Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

There are things, as believers, that ought not be in our lives. Many times, we settle for crumbs when God has promised us bread. Jesus loosed a woman from an infirmity she had had for 18 years. In Jesus' words, what was happening to her should never have been. It is those demonic things that should have never been that God calls us to defeat. Our assignment is to take back territory that remains in the hands of the enemy so we can see the fullness of God's will in our time.

Can body positivity and weight loss medications like Ozempic and WeGovy coexist. Or are they destined to clash? This question has sparked debates across social media and medical offices everywhere. In this episode, I will explore the history of the body positivity movement from its 1960's roots with the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance to its social media explosion in the 2010's. I will discuss how the movement challenged diet culture and promoted self-love regardless of size. Then, I will also talk about today's weight loss medication revolution and the tension it creates. Some feel that taking these drugs contradicts body positivity principles, while others face judgement for choosing medical intervention. I will address the stigma from both sides, the challenge of redefining health, and how to separate personal choice from cultural pressure. Tune in to discover why these two movements don't have to be at war and how you can find a middle ground of honoring your own health journey without judgment.   Episode Highlights: The history and evolution of body positivity movement How society judges people based on size and the ongoing work needed. The rise of drugs like Zepbound and WeGovy and their health benefits The tension between these two movements seeing it as incompatible to each other's principles.

You've done the therapy sessions, meditation retreats, and healing workshops. You've read the books and tried every modality you could find. Yet somehow, you still feel stuck - like you're operating from old patterns that just won't shift, no matter how much inner work you do.Dr. John Churchill brings a unique perspective to this puzzle. With his Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, 15 years of training in Tibetan meditation practices, and founding membership in Ken Wilber's Integral Institute, he's spent 25 years developing integrated approaches to healing that go beyond traditional therapy.In This Groundbreaking Conversation, You'll Learn:• Why trauma isn't just personal - it's multi-generational, cultural, and woven into the fabric of civilization itself • How your nervous system carries imprints from ancestors you've never met, and why this matters for your healing journey• The hidden reason why individual therapy, meditation, and plant medicines can only take you so far before hitting an invisible ceiling • Why your traumas need other nervous systems to release - it's not a personal failing, it's biology • How the culture's dysfunction becomes your personal dysfunction, and what this means for lasting transformation • The difference between transcending your wounds and actually healing them at the root level • Why community healing isn't just "nice to have" - it's essential for rewiring patterns that formed in relationship • How cleaning up childhood traumas unlocks access to profound spiritual states naturallyThis isn't about adding another healing technique to your toolkit. Dr. Churchill reveals how our individual healing journeys are actually part of a larger planetary transformation - and why understanding this connection changes everything about how we approach our own growth.If you've ever felt like you're doing "all the right things" but still hitting the same walls, this episode offers a radically different framework for understanding what true healing actually requires. Listen now to discover why healing happens in relationships, not isolation.Connect with Dr. John:Website: https://www.planetarydharma.com/Instagram:@PlanetaryDharmaEmail: hello@planetarydharma.comConnect with Raj:Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: @raj_janaSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_janaLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.
