In episode 465 of The Reformed Brotherhood, hosts Tony Arsenal and Jesse Schwamb explore Jesus's parable of the wheat and tares (weeds) from Matthew 13. This thought-provoking discussion examines Christ's startling teaching that good and evil will always coexist within the visible church until the end of time. The brothers carefully unpack the theological implications of Jesus's command not to separate wheat from weeds prematurely, challenging our natural tendency to judge others while offering wisdom about God's sovereign plan for final judgment. This episode wrestles with difficult questions about church purity, assurance of salvation, and how believers should approach the reality of false professors within Christ's church—providing biblical guidance for faithfully enduring in a mixed communion. Key Takeaways The Coexistence of True and False Believers: Jesus teaches that the visible church will always contain a mixture of genuine believers and false professors until the final judgment. The Danger of Premature Judgment: Christ explicitly warns against attempting to completely purify the church before the harvest (end of age) because doing so would damage the wheat (true believers). Proper Biblical Interpretation: Unlike some parables, Jesus provides a detailed allegorical explanation of this parable—the sower is Christ, the field is the world, the good seed represents believers, and the weeds are the sons of the evil one. The Challenge of Discernment: One of the most difficult theological pills to swallow is that it's often impossible to perfectly distinguish between true and false believers. Final Judgment as God's Prerogative: The separation of wheat from weeds is reserved for the angels at the end of the age, not for current church leaders or members. The Reality of False Assurance: Some professing Christians may have false assurance of salvation while genuinely believing they are saved. The Importance of Theological Integrity: Public theologians and pastors have a moral responsibility to be transparent about their theological convictions and changes in their beliefs. Deeper Explanations The Difficult Reality of a Mixed Church Jesus's teaching in the parable of the wheat and weeds directly challenges our natural desire for a perfectly pure church. By instructing the servants not to pull up the weeds lest they damage the wheat, Christ is establishing an important ecclesiological principle that will hold true until His return. This means that no matter how rigorously we apply church discipline or how carefully we examine profession of faith, we will never achieve a perfectly pure communion this side of eternity. The visible church—which can be understood as those who profess faith and are baptized—will always include both true and false believers. This reality should cultivate humility in how we approach church membership and discipline. Jesus isn't suggesting that all attempts at church purity are wrong (as other Scripture passages clearly call for church discipline), but rather that perfect purification is impossible and attempts at achieving it will inevitably damage true believers. This teaching directly refutes movements throughout church history (like Donatism) that have sought absolute purity in the visible church. The Problem of Discernment and Assurance One of the most challenging aspects of this parable is Christ's implicit teaching that true and false professors can appear nearly identical, especially in their early development. Like tares growing alongside wheat, false believers can profess orthodox doctrine, participate in church life, and exhibit what appears to be spiritual fruit. This creates profound implications for how we understand assurance of salvation. As Tony notes, while "assurance is the proper and rightful possession and inheritance of every Christian," there's also the sobering reality of false assurance. Some may sincerely believe they are saved when they are not, raising difficult questions about self-examination and spiritual discernment. This doesn't mean believers should live in perpetual doubt, but rather that we should approach assurance with both confidence in God's promises and healthy self-examination. True assurance must be grounded in the finished work of Christ rather than merely in our experiences or behaviors, while false assurance often lacks this proper foundation. The brothers wisely note that final judgment belongs to God alone, who perfectly knows who belongs to Him. Memorable Quotes "The visible church is set before us as a mixed body. Maybe everybody else's churches, but certainly not my church, like the one that I actually go to on the Lord's day. So it seems like there might be this shocking statement possibly that he has for us, whether you're Episcopalian or Presbyterian or independent or Baptist or Christian life assembly, whatever it is, that no matter what we do to purify the church, our churches, we're never gonna succeed in obtaining a perfectly pure communion." - Jesse Schwamb "I think that's what I find shocking. It is like a massive statement of reality that is at equal points totally sensible. And other times we would think, 'well, surely not in the church Lord, like of all the places, like aren't we talking about a kind of purity of your people?' ...and what I think he's striking at, which I do find a little bit wild, is that Jesus is essentially saying, at least to my ear, anything we try to do, even the purest preaching of the gospel, is not gonna prevent this in every age of the church." - Jesse Schwamb "I'm affirming that assurance is the proper and rightful possession and inheritance of every Christian." - Tony Arsenal Full Transcript Jesse Schwamb: Welcome to episode 465 of The Reformed Brotherhood. I am Jesse. Tony Arsenal: And I'm Tony. And this is the podcast with ears to hear. Hey brother. Jesse Schwamb: Hey brother. Guess what? It looks like you and I are taking another trip back to the farm on this episode. Tony Arsenal: Yes. For a couple episodes. Jesse Schwamb: For a couple episodes. Yeah. [00:01:01] Exploring Jesus' Parables in Matthew 13 Jesse Schwamb: Because what, Jesus will not stop leading us there. We're looking at his teachings, specifically the parables, and we're gonna be looking in Matthew chapter 13, where it seems like, is it possible that Jesus, once again has something very shocking for us to hear? That is for all the ages. 'cause it seems like he might actually be saying, Tony, that good and evil will always be found together in the professing church until the end of the world. Like in other words, that the visible church is set before a mixed body. I mean. Maybe everybody else chose churches, but certainly not my church, like the one that I actually go to on the Lord's day. So it seems like there might be this shocking statement possibly that he has for us, whether you're Episcopalian or Presbyterian or independent or Baptist or Christian life assembly, whatever it is, that no matter what we do to purify the church, our churches, we're never gonna succeed in obtaining a perfectly pure communion. Could that possibly be what Jesus is saying to us? I don't know what we're gonna find out. Tony Arsenal: We are. We are gonna find out. Jesse Schwamb: It's gonna be definitive. And if now that makes sense. If you don't even know why we're looking at Jesus' teachings, you could do us a favor even before you go any further. And that is just head on over in your favor, interwebs browser to or reform brotherhood.com, and you can find out all of the other episodes, all 464 that are living out there. There's all kinds of good stuff, at least we think so, or at least entertaining stuff for you to listen to. And when you're done with all of that in a year or two, then we'll pick it up right back here where we're about to go with some affirmations or some denials. [00:02:39] Affirmations and Denials Jesse Schwamb: So Tony, before we figure out what Jesus has for us in Matthew 13, in the parable of the weeds, or the tears, or the tears in the weed, what gets all of that? Are you affirming with, are you denying against, Tony Arsenal: I am denying. First of all, I'm denying whatever this thing is that's going on with my throat. Sorry for the rest of the episode, everyone. Um, I'm denying something that I, I think it is. How do I want to phrase this? Um, maybe I'll call it theological integrity, and maybe that's too strong of a word, but maybe not. So the listener who's been with us for a little while will remember that a while back. Um, you know, we've, we've talked about Matthew Barrett and he was a Baptist, uh, who's heavily involved in sort of the theology, proper controversies. He wrote Simply Trinity, which is just a fantastic book. He was a teacher or a professor at Midwestern, um, Baptist Theological Seminary. And he recently, um, uh, converted is not the right word. I hate calling it a conversion when you go from one faithful Bible tradition to another. But he recently, um, changed his perspective and joined the Anglican Church. And at the time I kind of, you know, I kind of talked about it as like, it's a little bit disappointing, like the reasons he cited. [00:03:57] Theological Integrity and Public Disclosure Tony Arsenal: Where I'm bringing this into a matter of sort of theological integrity. And it's not, it's not just Matthew Barrett. Um, there's other elements of things going on that I'll, I'll point to too is it's often the case when someone who is in some form of professional theological work or professional vocational ministry, that as they start to change perspectives, um, there comes to be like an inflection point where they should notify whoever it is that they are accountable to in that job or vocation, uh, uh, and then do the right thing and step down. Right? And so with Matthew Barrett, um. He continued to teach systematic theology at a Baptist Theological Seminary, which has a faith statement which he was obligated to affirm and hold in good faith. He continued to teach there for quite some time, if, you know, when he, when he published the timeline and he's the one that put all the timelines out there. So it's not like people had to go digging for this. Um, he continued to teach under contract and under that, that faith statement, um, for quite some time after his positions changed. I remember in college, um, sim very similar situation, one of my professors, um, and I went to a Baptist college. It was a General Baptist college. Um, one of my professors became Roman Catholic and for quite some time he continued to teach without telling anyone that he had converted to Roman Catholicism. Um. And I think that there's a, there's a, a level of integrity that public theologians need to have. Um, and it, it really makes it difficult when something like this happens to be able to say that this is not a moral failing or some sort of failure. Um, you know, James White has jumped on the bandwagon very quickly to say, of course we told you that this was the way it was gonna lead. That if you affirm the great tradition, you know, he was very quick to say like, this is the road to Rome. And I think in his mind, um, Canterbury is just sort of one, one stop on that trip. Um, it becomes very hard after the fact to not have this color and tarnish all of your work before. 'cause it starts to be questions like, well, when, when did you start to hold these views? Were you writing, were you, were you publicizing Baptist theology when you no longer believed it to be the truth? Were you teaching theology students that this is what the Bible teaches when you no longer thought that to be true? Um. Were you secretly attending Anglican services and even teaching and, and helping deliver the service when you were, you know, still outwardly affirming a Baptist faith statement. And the reason I, I'll point out one other thing, 'cause I don't want this to be entirely about Matthew Barrett, but there's a big, uh, hub glue going on in the PCA right now. Um, a guy named Michael Foster, who some of our audience will probably be familiar with, um, he and I have had our desktops in the past, but I think he and I have come to a little bit of a, of a uneasy truce on certain things. He, uh, went to work compiling a, a list and there's some problems with the data, like it's, it's not clean data, so take it for what it's worth. But he compiled a list of. Every publicly available church website in the PCA. So something like 1800 websites or something like that. Huge numbers. And he went and looked at all of the staff and leadership directories, and he cataloged all the churches that had some sort of office or some sort of position that appeared to have a, a woman leading in a way that the Bible restricts. And that more importantly, and starting to say it this way, but more importantly, that the PCA itself restricts. So we're not talking about him going to random church websites and making assessments of their polity. We're talking about a, a denomination that has stated standards for who can bear office and it's not women. Um. So he compiled this and people in the PCA are coming out of the woodwork to basically defend the practice of having shepherdess and deacons. There was one that he cataloged where, um, the website actually said, uh, that was the pastor's wife and the title was Pastor of Women. Um, and then as soon as it became public that this was the case, they very quickly went in and changed the title to Shepherd of Women or Shepherdess of Women or something like that. So it's, it's really the same phenomena, not commenting, you know, I think we've been clear where we stand on the ordination of female officers and things like that, but not that all that withstanding, um, when you are going to be a part of a body that has a stated perspective on something and then just decide not to follow it, the right thing to do the, the upstanding morally. Uh, in full of integrity move would be to simply go to another denomination where your views align more closely. PCA churches, it's not super easy, but it's not impossible to leave the PCA as an entire congregation and then go somewhere like the EPC, which is the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, which still on the spectrum of things is still relatively conservative, but is in general is in favor of, uh, female officers, elders, and diegans. So I, I think, you know, and you see this with podcasters, there was the big, there was a big fu and Les became a Presbyterian, and then when Tanner became a Presbyterian on the pub, I think it is, um, incumbent on people who do any form of public theology and that that would include me and Jesse when our views change. There comes a point where we need to disclose that, be honest about it, um, and not try to pretend that we continue to hold a view that we don't be just because it's convenient or because it might be super inconvenient to make a change. I don't even want to pretend to imagine the pressures, uh, that someone like Matthew Barrett would face. I mean, you're talking about losing your entire livelihood. I, I understand that from an intellectual perspective, how difficult that must be, but in some ways, like that kind of comes with the territory. Same thing with a pastor. You have a Baptist pastor or a Presbyterian pastor. It can go both ways, I think. I'm more familiar with Baptist becoming Presbyterians. I don't, I don't see as many going the other direction. But you have a, a Baptist pastor who comes to pay to Baptist convictions and then continues to minister in their church for, I've, I've seen cases where they continue to minister for years, um, because they don't, they don't have the ability to now just go get a job in a Presbyterian context because there's all sorts of, um, training and certification and ordination process that needs to happen. Um, so they just continue ministering where they are, even though they no longer believe the church's state of, you know, state of faith statement. So that's a lot to say. Like, let your yes be yes and your no be no, and when we really all boil it down. So I think that's enough of that. It, it just sort of got in my craw this week and I couldn't really stop thinking about it. 'cause it's been very frustrating. And now there are stories coming out of. Doctoral students that, um, that Barrett was teaching who have now also become Anglican. Um, so, you know, there starts to be questions of like, was he actively pros? I mean, this is like Jacob Arminius did this stuff and, and like the reform tradition would look down on it, where he was in secret in like sort of small group private settings. He was teaching convictions very different than the uni. I'm talking about Arminius now. Not necessarily Barrett. He was teaching convictions very different than the, the stated theology of the university he taught for, and then in public he was sort of towing the line. You have to ask the question and it is just a question. There's been no confirmation that I'm aware of, but you have to ask the question if that was what was going on with Barrett, was he teaching Baptist theology publicly and then meeting with, with PhD students privately and, and sort of convincing them of Anglican theology. I don't know. I'm not speculating on that, but I think it, the situation definitely right, brings that question to mind. It forces us to ask it. Um, and had he. Been transparent about his theological shifts sooner than that may not be a, a question we have to ask. Um, the situation may not be all that different, but we wouldn't have to ask the question. Jesse Schwamb: Yeah, that's totally fair. I mean, disclosure is important in lots of places in life and we shouldn't think that theological dis disclosure, especially like you're saying among our teachers, among our pastors, it is a critical thing. It's helpful for people to know when perspectives have changed, especially when they're looking to their leaders who are exhibiting trust and care over their discipleship or their education to express that difference. If there's been a mark, change it. It's worth it. Disclose, I'm guessing you don't have to over disclose, but that we're talking about a critical, we're talking about like subversive anglicanism, allegedly. Yeah. Then. It would be more than helpful to know that that is now shaping not just perspective, but of course like major doctrine, major understanding. Yeah. And then of course by necessary conviction and extension, everything that's being promulgated or proclamation in the public sphere from that person is likely now been permeated by that. And we'd expect so. Right. If convictions change, and especially like you're talking about, we're just talking about moving from, especially among like Bible believing traditions, just raise the hand and say loved ones, uh, this is my firm conviction now. Tony Arsenal: Yeah. Yeah. I think if someone walks up to you and says, do you think that we should baptize babies? And you're like, yeah, I think so. Then you probably shouldn't be teaching at a Baptist seminary anymore. Like, seems like a reasonable standard. And that seems to be what happened, at least for some period of time. Um, you know, and, and it, that's not to say like, I think, I think there are instances where the church, a given church or um, or a university or seminary or, or whatever the situation might be, can be gracious and recognize like, yeah, people's perspectives change and maybe we can find a way for you to continue to finish out the semester or, you know, we can bridge you for a little while until you can find a new, a new job. Um, you know, we'll, we'll only have you teach certain courses or we'll have a guest lecturer come in when you have to cover this subject that is at variance and like, we'll make sure we're all clear about it, but it doesn't seem like any of that happened. And that's, um, that's no bueno. So anyway, Jesse. What are you affirming and or denying Tonight? [00:13:43] Music Recommendations Jesse Schwamb: I'm just gonna go with something brief. I suppose this is an affirmation of me. I'm saying that like somewhat tongue in cheek, but maybe it's, wait, I'll rephrase. It's because this will be more humble. I'm affirming getting it right, even more than I thought. So I'm just gonna come back to the well and dip it into something that I mentioned on the last episode. So the keen listener, the up-to-date listener might remember. And if you're not up to date, uh, just let this be fresh for you. It'll, and I, it's gonna be correct because now I have posts, you know, I'm on the other side of it. I've clear hindsight. I am affirming with the album Keep It Quiet by Gray Haven, which I affirmed last week, but it came out on the same day that the episode released. And since you and I don't really like record in real time and release it like exactly as it's happening, I only did that with some, a little bit of reservation because I only heard they only released three songs in the album. And I thought I was overwhelmed that they were, they were so good that I was ready to jump in and loved ones. Oh, it, it turns out. I was so correct and it was, it's even better than I thought. So go check it out. It's Grey, GRE, YH, and they are, this is the warning, just because I have to give it out there and then I'll balance it with something else for something for everybody here today. So, gr Haven is music that's post hardcore and metal core. You're getting two cores for the price of one, if that is your jam. It has strong maleic sensibilities. It's very emotional, it's very experimental. But this new album, which is called, um, again, keep It Quiet, is like just a work of arts. It real like the guitar work is intricate haunting, lovely, and it's bold, like very intentional in its structure and very el loose in its construction. It's got hook driven melodies and it's got both heart and soft. It really is truly a work of art. So if you're trying to, to put it in your minds, like what other bands are like this? I would compare them to bands like, every Time I Die, Norma Jean, let Live Hail the Sun. If you just heard those as combinations of words that don't mean anything to you, that's also okay. No worries. But if you're looking for something different, if you're looking for something that's maybe gonna challenge your ear a little bit, but is like orchestral and has all of these metal core post hardcore, melodic, textured movements, there's no wasted notes in this album. It's really tremendous. If that's not your thing. I get, that's not everybody's thing. Here's something else I think would be equally challenging to the ear in a different way. And that is, I'm going back to one other album to balance things out here, and that's an album that was released in 2019 by Mark Barlow, who I think is like just. So underrated. For some reason, like people have slept on Mike Barlow. I have no idea why he put together an album with Isla Vista Worship called Soul Hymns, and it's like a distinct soul and r and b album of praise with like these really lovely like falsetto, harmonies. It's got these minimalistic instrumentation, warm keys, groove oriented percussion, like again, like these false soul driven melodies. It's contemplative. It's got a groove to it. This is also equally a beautiful album for a totally different reason. So I think I've given two very book-ended, very different affirmations, but I think there's something for everybody. So my challenge to your loved ones is you gotta pick one or the other. Actually, you could do both, but either go to Gray Havens, keep it quiet, or go to Mike Bellow's Soul hymns. I do not think you will be disappointed. There's something for everybody on this one. Tony Arsenal: Yeah, I, it was funny because as you were saying the names of those bands, I literally was thinking like Jesse could be speaking Swahili and I wouldn't know the difference. And then you, you, you know me well, yeah. Uh, I haven't listened to Gray Haven. Uh, I probably will give it a couple minutes 'cause that's how it usually goes with songs that meet that description. Uh, I can always tell that the music that Jesse recommends is good from a technical perspective, but I never really, I never really vibe with it. So that's okay. But I mean, lots of people who listen to our show do so check that out. If, if you ever. Want a good recommendation for music. Jesse is the pers so much so that he can recommend amazing music before it's even available and be a hundred percent correct, apparently. That's right. So Jesse Schwamb: affirm with me everybody, because turns out I was right. Uh, it was easy to be correct when of course I had all of that fair sightedness by being able to listen to those. Yeah, those couple of songs, it, this is a kind of album. Both of these, both of these albums. When I heard them, I reacted audibly out loud. There are parts of both of 'em where I actually said, oh wow. Or yeah, like there's just good stuff in there. And the older you get, if you're a music fan, even if you're not, if you don't listen to a lot of music, you know when that hook gets you. You know when that turn of melody or phrase really like hits you just, right. Everybody has that. Where the beat drops in a way. You're just like, yes, gimme, you make a face like you get into it. I definitely had that experience with both of these albums and because. I've listened to a lot of music because I love listening to music. It's increasingly rare where I get surprised where, you know, like sometimes stuff is just like popular music is popular for a reason and it's good because it's popular and it follows generally some kind of like well established roots. But with these albums, it's always so nice when somebody does something that is totally unexpected. And in these, I heard things that I did not expect at all. And it's so good to be surprised in a way that's like, why have I never heard that before? That is amazing. And both of these bands did it for me, so I know I'm like really hyping them up, but they're worth it. They're, they're totally worth it. Good music is always worth it. Tony Arsenal: Yeah. Yeah. I, uh, I think that is a good recommendation. I will check those out because, you know, you're a good brother. I usually do, and I trust your judgment even though it, you'll like the second one. Yes. Hopefully. Yeah. Yeah. Jesse Schwamb: You'll like the second one. Second one is like, just filled with praise and worship. And like, if, if you're trying to think, like say, here's how I'd couch the proper atmosphere for Mark Barlow's soul hymns you're having, you know, it's, it's a cold and chilly. A tal evening, the wind is blowing outside. You can hear the crisp leaves moving around on the pavement and the sun has gone down. The kids are in bed, the dinner dishes are piled up in the sink. But you think to yourselves, not tonight. I don't think so, and you just want that toneage to put on. You want that music as you dim the lights and you sit there to just hang out with each other and take a breath. You don't just want some kind of nice r and b moving music. You don't want just relaxing vibes. You want worshipful spirit filled vibes that propel your conversation and your intimacy, not just into the marital realm, but into worship and harmony with the triune God. If you're looking for that album, because that situation is before you, then sol hymns is the music you're looking for. Tony Arsenal: See, I'm gonna get the, I'm gonna get the recommendations backwards and I'm gonna sit down with my wife with a nice like evening cup of decaf tea and I'm gonna turn the music on. Yes, it's gonna be like, yes. That was me screaming into the microphone. That was not good for my voice. Well, the good news is it's gonna, it's gonna wake the kids up. That's, I'm gonna sleep on the couch. That's, it's gonna be bad. That's, Jesse Schwamb: honestly, that's also a good evening. It's just a different kind of evening. It's true. So it's just keep it separated again, uh, by way of your denial slash affirmation. Tony disclosure, I'm just giving you proper disclosure. Everybody know your music KYM, so that way when you have the setting that you want, you can match it with the music that you need. So it's true. Speaking of things that are always worth it. [00:21:30] Parable of the Weeds Jesse Schwamb: I think the Bible's gotta be one of those things. Tony Arsenal: It's true. Jesse Schwamb: And this is like the loosest of all segues because it's like the Sunday school segue into any topic that involves the scriptures. We're gonna be in Matthew 13, and how about we do this? So this is one of these parables and in my lovely ESV translation of the scriptures, the, we're just gonna go with the heading, which says the parable of the weeds. You may have something different and I wanna speak to that just briefly, but how do we do this, Tony? I'll hit us up with the parable and then it just so happens that this is one of the parables in the scripture that comes with an interpretation from our savior. It's true. How about you hit us up with the interpretation, which is in the same chapter if you're tracking with us, it's just a couple verses way. Does that sound good? Tony Arsenal: Let's do it. Jesse Schwamb: Okay. Here is the parable of the weeds. Jesus puts another parable before them saying The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sewed good seed in his field. But while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sewed weeds among the weeds and went away. So when the plants came up and bork rain, then the weeds also appeared, and the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, master, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have weeds? He said to them, an enemy has done this. So the servant said to him, then, do you want us to go and gather them? Then he said, no. Lest in gathering the weeds, you root up the wheat along with them, but let them grow together until the harvest and at harvest time, I will tell the reapers, gather the weeds first, and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn. Tony Arsenal: Alright, so then jumping down. To verse 36. We're still in Matthew 13, he says, then he left the crowds and went into the house and his disciples came to him saying, explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field. He answered, the one who sows the good seed is the son of man. The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are the angel. Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the end of the age, the son of man will send his angels and they will gather out of his kingdom, all that, all causes of sin in all lawbreakers and throw them into the fiery furnace. It is that in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their father. He who has ears let him hear. Jesse Schwamb: So let me start with just like a little bit of language here, which I've always loved in this passage because where else in like the contemporary context, do you get the word tear? Yeah. Aside if you're like using a scale, and that's a totally different definition. I like this. I like the word tear. It force, it forces to understand that what's common to our ear, why that's being used, it often is translated weed. Here's just like my, my little like linguistic addition to the front end of our discussion and is the reason I like it is because here does have a specific definition. If like you were to look this up in almost any dictionary, what you're gonna find is it's like a particular type of weed. It's actually like an injurious weed that is indistinguishable in its infant form from the outgrowing of green. So I like that because of course that is exactly why. Then there's all this explanation of why then to not touch anything in the beginning because one, it causes damage to it looks like everybody else. I just thought I'd put that out there as we begin our discussion. Tony Arsenal: Yeah, yeah. You know, I, um, I am a homeowner and I don't own the land that I'm on, but I'm responsible for the land that I'm on. And we have this really gnarly weed problem. There's this, uh, sort of floor growing, uh, carpeting weed called, uh, I think it's called like a carpeting knob, head weed or something like that. Some really descriptive thing. And I went out there the other day and there's really nothing you can do about this other than to rip it up. But I went out there the other day to start to pull some of it up and it totally wrecks the yard. Like it totally pulls up the grass, it destroys the sod. And when you're done, this is why it's kind of nice that I don't have, I'm not responsible for the land as I'm not gonna have to pay to resod the land. But when you're done pulling up this weed, you have to resod the whole place. You have to regrow all the grass because it, first, it takes over for the grass, and then when you rip it up, it rips the roots of the grass up as well. And so this parable, um, on one level is immediately obvious, like what the problem is, right? The situation is such. That the good, uh, the good sower, right? He's a good sower. He knows what he's doing. He understands that simply ripping up the weeds. Even if you could distinguish them right, there's this element that like at an early stage, they would be very difficult, if not impossible to distinguish from, uh, from wheat. Even if you could distinguish them, you still wouldn't be able to pull up the weeds and not do damage to the grain. And so we, we have this sort of like, um, conflict if you wanna follow like literary standards, right? We have this conflict and as we come to sort of the climax of this, of this plot is when all of a sudden we see that, that the problem needs a resolution and there is a resolution, but it's not necessarily what we would think it would be. Jesse Schwamb: Yeah, I think that's what I find shocking. It is like a massive statement of reality that is that like equal points or equal times totally sensible. And other times we would think, well why surely not in the church Lord, like of all the places, like aren't we talking about a kind of purity of your people, the very people that you're assembling together, the chief of which is Christ and the apostles being the building stones and Christ of course being the cornerstone. And I, I think that's what I find and I wonder the people hearing this, if they thought like, well, surely Lord, that not be the case like you are bringing in and ushering in this new kingdom. Isn't this new kingdom gonna be one of absolute purity? And, and what I think he's striking at, which I do find a little bit wild, is that Jesus essentially saying, at least to my ear, anything we try to do, even like the purest preaching of the gospel, is not gonna prevent this in every age of the church. The same state of the things that's existed in that is in the time of the early fathers. In the first century, and the church as it stands right now in the land and the time of the reformers, and of course with the best ministers at this hour right now and on your next Lord's day, and everyone after that, there is always and ever will be a visible church or a religious assembly in which the members are not all wheat. Yeah. And then I like what you're saying. It's this idea that. There's a great harm that's gonna come about if you try to lift them up because you cannot tell. So, and this is what's hard, I think this does influence like how we interact with people online. Certainly how we interact with people in our own congregations, but we are going to have no clear convicted proofs. We might only have like probable symptoms if we're really trying to judge and weigh out to discern the weeds from the weeds, which at most can only give us some kind of conjectural knowledge of another state. And that is gonna sometimes preemptively judge cause us to judge others in a way that basically there's a warning against here. It, it's, it's not the right time. And ba I think mainly from the outside where I find like this parable coming together, if there's like maybe a weird Venn diagram of the way Christians read this and the way unbelievers hear this, the overlap between them is for me, often this idea of like hypocrisy and you know. When people tell me that the church is full of hypocrites, either like Christian or non-Christian, but typically that's a, a, you know, statement that comes from the non-Christian tongue. When people say that the church is full of hypocrites, I do with a little bit of snark, say it's definitely not full of hypocrites. There are always room for more in the church and, and there's like a distinction of course between the fact that there is hypocrisy in the Christian or whether the Christian is in fact or that person is a hypocrite. So like when I look through the scriptures, we see like Pharaoh confessing, we see Herod practicing, we see Judas preaching Christ Alexander venturing his life for Paul. Yeah, we see David condemning in another, what he himself practiced and like hezeki glorifying and riches Peter. Doing all kinds of peter stuff that he does, and even all the disciples forsaken Christ, an hour of trouble and danger. So all that to say, it goes back to this like lack of clear, convicted proofs that I think Jesus is bringing forward here, but only probable symptoms. And I'm still processing, of course, like the practicality of what you're saying, Tony, that in some ways it seems like abundantly clear and sensible that you should, you're, you're gonna have a problem distinguishing. But our human nature wants to go toward distinguishing and then toward uprooting sometimes. And the warning here is do not uproot at the improper time. And in fact, it's not even yours to uproot because God will send in the laborers to do that at the time of, of harvest. And so there will be weeds found among the wheat. It's just like full stop statement. And at the same time it's warning, do not go after them now. Tony Arsenal: Yeah, I, I'm sure this, um, I, I'm sure this will spill over into a second conversation, but we, I think we have to talk a little bit about the interpretation here before we, before we even like talk more about the parable itself, because if you're not careful, um, and, and. I need to do a little bit more study on this, but it, it's interesting because Matthew almost seems to want you to sort of blend these parables together a little bit. Jesse Schwamb: Yes. Tony Arsenal: Right. These, these, there's three, um, there's three, maybe four if you count the parable of the treasure in the field. But there's three agricultural parables that have to do with sowing seed of one, of, one way or another. And in each one the seed is something different. And I, it almost seems to me. And then on top of that, the parables are like interwoven within each other. So like right smack in the middle of this, we have the parable. Uh, is given. Then the next parable of the mustard seed, which we're gonna talk about in a future episode, is given, and then the explanation of this parable of the tears is given. Um, and so we have to talk a little bit about it and sort of establish what the seed is, because we just spent three weeks talking about the seed in the par of the sower. Um, or the parable of the, of the soils. And in that parable, the seed was the word of God in this parable. And this is where I think sometimes, um, and again, this is like the doctrine of election in parable form, right? Yes. I think sometimes we read this and we, we misstep because the seed is not, uh, is not the word of God in this. The seed is the believers. Jesse Schwamb: Yes. Tony Arsenal: Right. So the good seed is sewn into, uh, into the field, which, you know, I think maybe there'll be some, we, we can save this for, for next week. But a little sneak peek is, it's not always clear exactly what the field is. Right. And I think we often, we often talk about the field as though it's the church that doesn't necessarily align a hundred percent with how Christ explains the parable. So we'll have to, we'll have to talk through that a little bit. I affirm that it is the church in, in a, a broad sense. Um, but, but the, the way that Christ explains it slightly different, but the, the seed is sewn into the world. The sons of the kingdom of heaven are sowed into the, into the world. And then the seed of the enemy, the bad seed, is the sons of the devil that's also sewn into the world. And so these two seeds grow up next to each other. If we think about the seed here as though it's the word of God, rather than the, the actual believers and unbelievers that elect in the ate, we're gonna make some missteps on how we understand this because we're not talking about, um, the, the seed being, you know, doctrine being sewn into the world. And some of it grows up good and some of it grows up bad or good doctrine and bad doctrine. We're talking about the believers themselves. Sorry, Jesse is mocking my rapid attempt to mute before I cough, which I, I did. That was pretty good. Jesse Schwamb: Yeah, that was, that was pretty good. Listen, this is real. Podcasting is how it goes. Yeah, I'm with you. Thank you for pulling out that distinction. 'cause it is critical. We, we have some overlap of course, with Jesus being really ascribed as the farmer, the son of man, right. He's sowing this good seed, but not the word. It's believers or the sons of the kingdom. And it is into his field, which is the world. Part of that world of course, is necessarily the church, right? But while everybody's sleeping, this enemy, the devil, he comes, he sows weeds or unbelievers, the sons of the evil one among this weed, they grow, go up together. And of course, like if I were servants in this household, I'd ask the same thing, which was like, should we get the gloves out? Yeah. Just pull those bad boys out. Like and, and so again, that's why I find it very so somewhat shocking that. It's not just, you could see like Jesus saying something like, don't worry about it now because listen, at the end of all time when the harvest comes, uh, I'm gonna take care of it. Like it's just not worth it to go out now. Right. That's not entirely The reason he gives, the reason is lest they uproot the wheat by mistake. So this is showing that the servants who are coming before Jesus in the parable, in this teaching here to really volitionally and with great fidelity and good obedience to him to want to please him to do his will. He there, he's basically saying, you are not qualified to undertake this kind of horticulture because you're just not either skilled enough or discerning enough to be able to do it right. Tony Arsenal: Yeah. Yeah. And you know, I think, um. Maybe just a word of meth methodology too. Um, this parable also flies in the face of all of the, like, parables are not allegories, kind of kind of people. Um, and this is, we talked about this in our introductory episode. You have to take each parable for what it's worth, this parable very much is explained like a traditional allegory, right? Right. [00:35:39] Understanding the Parable's Symbols Tony Arsenal: It's got, it's got several different elements and Christ goes through and the first thing he does is tell you what each element represents, right? The sower is the son of man, the field is the word. The good seed is the sons of the kingdom of the weed. It's like, he's like clicking down all of the symbols and then he explains how all of it works together and like a good, all like a good allegory. Once you understand what each element and each symbol is, the rest of it actually is very self-explanatory, right? When you understand who's what in the parable. The outcome and the sort of the punchline writes itself as it were. And I think this is one of those parables that we would do. [00:36:18] Challenging Our Sensibilities Tony Arsenal: I think we would do well to sort of let marinate a little bit because it does challenge a lot of our sensibilities of what, um, what is real in the world, what is real in terms of our interaction with the world, right? What's real in terms of the role of unbelievers in the life of a Christian, um, whether we can identify who is or isn't an unbeliever. Um, I think we, you know, I, I'm not one of those people that's like, we should assume everyone's a Christian. And I'm certainly not one of those people who's like, we should assume nobody is a Christian. But I think there are a lot of times where we have figures either in public or people in our lives. Like personal acquaintances that have some sort of outward appearance. And, and that's like the key here that that distinction between weeds is a, is not a great translation as you said. Right. Because right. That distinction between wheat and weeds, to go to my analogy, like it's very clear what is grass and what is this like carpeting, knob weed. Like there's no, there's no doubt in my mind, which is the weed and which is the grass. Um, that's not what we're talking about here. And so it does, it does say here, I mean, it implies here that it's not going to be easy to distinguish the difference between exactly. The, a son of the kingdom and a son of the evil one. And I think that's a, that's a. A theological pill that is very difficult to swallow. Yes. [00:37:43] Personal Reflections on Identifying Christians Tony Arsenal: Because a lot of us, um, and this goes back to like what I, what we were saying in the last, the last parable, A lot of us were reared in our Christian faith on sort of this idea that like, you can check your fruit or you can check other people's fruits and you can determine, you can easily identify who's a Christian and who's not. I remember when I was in high school, you know, I got, I was converted when, when I was 15 and, um, I got to high school and it felt very easy to me to be able to identify the people who were play acting Christianity and the people who were real Christians. That felt like the most natural thing in the world to me. Um, it, it's an interesting story, but one of the people that I was absolutely sure was not a Christian. That he was just doing kinda civic Christianity. He was in confirmation 'cause his parents wanted him to. Um, and I had good reason to believe that at the time he was very worldly. He, he, um, did not seem to be serious about his faith at all. There was good reason to make the assessment that I did. And then I ran into him on Facebook like 15 years later and he's a pastor at the Lutheran Church and he's, you know, he loves the Lord Jesus Christ. And he would not explain it as though he had a later conversion story. It's not as though he would say like, well yeah, in high school I pretended to be a Christian. And then, you know, I got through college and uh, I really became like I got converted. He would, would grow this, or he would explain this as slow, steady growth from an immature state that knew the facts of the gospel and in a certain sense trusted that Jesus was his savior and didn't fully understand the ramifications of that. I mean, who did at 15 years old? Mm-hmm. Um. And, and that it was a slow, steady growth to the place that he's in now. [00:39:21] The Difficulty of Distinguishing Believers Tony Arsenal: So I, I think we should take seriously, and maybe this is the takeaway for this week at least, and we can, we can talk about it more, is we should take seriously the fact that the Sons of the Kingdom and the Sons of the evil one in this parable are not only inseparable without doing damage, but in many ways they are not easily distinguishable. Jesse Schwamb: Right. On. Tony Arsenal: Um, and that, that's a baked into the parable. And I think we do spend a fair amount of time and I, I'll. I'll throw myself on on this. You know, this, we, I'm not just saying we, um, we as a genuine statement, like I have participated in this. I'm sure that I still do participate in this sometimes intentionally. Other times, uh, subconsciously we spend a fair amount of time probably in our Christian lives trying to figure out who is a Christian who's not. And it's not as though that is entirely illegitimate, right? The, the, as much as we kind of poke at the, the, um, workers in this who sort of are kind of chumps, right? They're sort of like the idiots in this. They, they don't seem to know how this happened. They propose a course of action that then the master's like, no, no, that's not, that's not gonna work. They can tell the difference, right? They can see that some are weeds and some are are weeds, and they're asking, well, what do we do about it? But at the same time he is saying like, you're not really competent to tell the difference, Jesse Schwamb: right? On Tony Arsenal: a good, uh, a good. Competent farmer could probably go out and take all the weeds out. Just like a really good, I dunno, landscape technician, I'm not sure what you would call it. I'm sure someone could come into my yard and if I paid them enough money they could probably fix this knobby grass, weed, whatever it is. Um, infestation. They could probably fix it without damaging the lawn. Like there are probably people that could do it. I am not that competent person and the workers in this are not that competent person. And I would say by and large in our Christian life, we are not that competent person to be able to identify who is and who isn't, um, a Christian who is or isn't a son of the kingdom versus a son of the devil. Jesse Schwamb: And there's sometimes like we just get history reprised, or it's like, again, the same thing microwaved over and served to you three or four times as leftovers. So it's also gonna remember like any as extension that like any attempt to like purify the church perfectly, and this has happened like donatism in the fourth century I think, or even like now, certain sectarian movements are completely misguided. Yeah. And Jesus already puts that out ahead of us here. It's almost like, do not worry what God is doing because God again is, is doing all the verbs. So here's a question I think we should discuss as we, we move toward like the top of the hour. And I think this is interesting. I don't know if you'll think it's interesting. I, I kind of have an answer, but I, I'll post it here first. [00:42:01] Visible vs. Invisible Church Jesse Schwamb: So the setup like you've just given us is two things. One, we got the visible church, we talk about the visible church. I think a lot across our conversations. Yeah. And we might summarize it, saying it's like the community of all who profess faith, maybe even the community of all who are baptized. Right. Possibly. Yeah. And it's going to include then necessarily as Jesus describes it here, true and false believers. So that's one group. Then we've got this invisible church, which as you said is the elect. Those who are known perfectly to God. So the good seed is those elect true believers. The weeds, then the weeds to me, or the tears, even better, they sound a lot like that. Second and third soils that we talked about previously to some, to some degree. I'm not, I'm not gonna lump them all in because we talked about receiving the word and it taking root, all that stuff, but to some degree, and also probably like a soil one. But here's, here's the way I would define them up and against or in contradistinction to the elector believers. They're the reprobate. They're false professors or they're children of the evil one. Now here's the question, Doni, Alex, I, I think this is very interesting. I'm trying to build this up for like more dramatic effect. 'cause now I'm worried it's not that good. The question is, I'm going to presume that this good seed, the elect, true to believers, the confidence of perseverance of the saints, the justification in sanctification of God's children is in fact though we at some points have our own doubts, it is made fully aware and known to the good seed. That is, we should have, as you and I have talked about before, the confidence that God has in fact saved his elect. So the question that on the other side is for the ta, do the tears always know that they are the tears? Tony Arsenal: Yeah, I mean, you know, I think, um, I've said this before and I, I mean it, and I think it takes probably more. More discussion than we have time for tonight. And and that's fine because we can do as many episodes on this as we want to. 'cause this is our show and you can't stop us actually. Jesse Schwamb: Correct. [00:43:56] Assurance of Faith and False Assurance Tony Arsenal: Um, I've said before that assurance is the proper and rightful possession and inheritance of every Christian. Jesse Schwamb: Amen. Tony Arsenal: Right. So I, I am not one to say that the technical terminology is that assurance is not of the essence of faith. Um, I think we have to be really careful when we say that it's not, but we have to be equally careful when we say that it is. Because if we say that assurance is of the essence of faith, then what that means is someone who doesn't have assurance, doesn't have faith. Um, the reason I say that we can say that is because there's a sense that that's true, right? If you don't believe you're saved, then you don't believe you're saved and you don't trust that you're saved. But that doesn't mean that you always have full awareness of that confidence. And, you know, I think, um, I think. I think you're, you're right that, um, it may not always be, let me put it this way. I, I think that we have to consider the entire life of a Christian when we're, when we're making that analysis. And in a certain sense, like, I'm not even sure we should be making that analysis. That's kind of the point of the, the, um, the parable here, or at least one of the points. But, um, when that analysis is made, we'll, we'll channel a little bit of RC sprawl. It's not as funny when he's actually, uh, gone. I don't really mean channel RC sprawl. We will, uh, speak in the tradition of RC sprawl, um, in the final analysis, whatever that means. Whenever that is. You have to consider the whole life of a Christian, the whole life of a believer. And so there may be times in the life of a believer where they don't possess that full assurance of faith or that that full assurance is weak or that it seems to be absent. But when we look at the entire life of a believer, um, is it a life that overall is marked by a confident trust, that they are in fact children of God? Um, that a confident, uh, a confident embracing of what the spirit testifies to their spirit, to, to borrow language from Romans, I think in, in the life of a true elect Christian, um, that with the perseverance of the saints, uh, with the persistence of the saints and the preservation of the saints, um, I think that yes, those who are finally saved, those who are saved unto salvation, if you wanna phrase it that way. They finish the race, they claim the prize. Um, that assurance will be their possession in their life as a Christian. Jesse Schwamb: Right on. Tony Arsenal: All of that to say, I think there are, are, there's a good case to be made for the fact that there is also people who have false assurance, right? And this is where it takes a lot more, you know, finagling and jockeying and theological explanation of how can we know we have true assurance versus false assurance. You know, it's kinda like that question, like, does an insane person know they're insane? Well, does a false, does someone with false assurance know that their assurance is false? I don't think, I don't think so. Otherwise, it wouldn't be false assurance. Um, if they knew it wasn't real assurance, then they wouldn't have any kind of assurance. So I, I think I agree with you at least where, where I think you're going is that we do have to, we do have to make some judgements. We have to look at our own life, right? Um, there is an element of fruitfulness in this parable, right? We'll talk about that. I, I think we'll get into that next week. But it's not as though this is entirely disconnected from the parable of the soils. Both of them have a very similar kind of. End point. [00:47:20] Final Judgment and Eschatology Tony Arsenal: At the end of all things, at the end of the harvest, when the end of the age comes, and the reapers, the angels are sent, what they're gathering up are fruitful Christians, right in the parable, he sends out the, it's funny be, I love my dispensational brothers and sisters, but in this parable, like the rapture is the rapture of the unbelievers, right? The angels go out and reap the unbelievers first. The, the weeds are bundled up and thrown into the fire, and then the, the fruitful wheat is gathered into the barns. Um, there is this delineation between the fruitless weeds and the fruitful wheat or the, the grain that has borne, you know, borne fruit. That is part of what the, the outward. Elements of this parable are, so we should talk about that more, of what is this trying to get at in terms of not just the difference between weeds and wheat and how that maps up to those who are in Christ versus those who are not in Christ, but also like what is this telling us about the, the end of the age eschatology. All of that's baked in here and we haven't even scratched the surface of that Jesse Schwamb: yet. Yeah, we, we, I, and we just can't, even on this episode, probably, you're right, we're gonna have to go to two so that, I guess it's like a teaser for the next one. I'm told they're with you. It's interesting. I've been thinking about that, that question a lot. And I do like what you're saying. You know, at the end here, it's almost as if Christ is saying at the time of harvest, things become more plain, more evident In the beginning. The chutes are gonna look really, really similar, and you're gonna go in and you're gonna think you're guessing properly or using your best judgment, and you're gonna get it wrong in the end when he sends out those who are harvesting. I liken this passage here in the explanation as you read to us starting in verse 36, how there's this comparison of heat and light. And so there is the heat and light of the fiery furnace into which, as you said, all of those who are the children of the enemy will be gathered up and burned. And then there's that contrast with in verse 43, then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their father. So there is like a reward that comes from the bearing of the fruit and that made evidence by a different type of heat and light. So I do struggle with this question because. It's easy to answer in some ways if we're defining the weeds in pirate or the tears in pirates as false professors typically. Let's say false professors of a nefarious kind, then it seems pretty plain that somebody, right, that the enemy has implanted certain people to stir up trouble with the intention to stir up trouble that is in fact their jam. Or they know that even if they're putting on heirs, that they're in fact play acting that the hypocrisy is purposeful and that it is part of like the missional efforts that they're doing to disrupt what God is doing in the world. So I might think of somebody like when we go, when we're looking in, um, Exodus, and we find that at least to some degree, all of Pharaoh's magicians can replicate everything that Moses is doing. Moses doing that by the power of God. But the magicians are so good and whatever means they're using, but they know, I presume they know they're not, they're not using Yahweh, they're not drawing their power or their influence from Yahweh. Tony Arsenal: Right? Jesse Schwamb: But it's so convincing to the people that Pharaoh is like, eh. Obviously I've seen that before because we just, we just did that here. Come back with your next trick until God flexes his mighty muscles in a really profound way, which cannot be replicated. And at some point there's a harvest that happens there. There's a separation between the two, those who are truly professing, the power that comes from God, the one true God, and those that are just replicating the cheap copy, the one that's just pure trickery and smoke and mirrors. So. That's an easy category. I'm with you. And I'm not saying that this is an invitation to bring the kind of judgment here that we've just spoken against. I'm not condoning this. What I do find interesting though is if the enemy is crafty, is it possible that they're always going to be forms of terror in the world that do feel that they have very strong conviction and belief about biblical things? Maybe there's, there's strong hobby horses or there are misguided directions here that pull us apart, that become distractions. Or maybe it's just even attitudes, uh, things that can be divisive, disruptive, derogatory that again, pull us away. For making the plain things, the main things and the main things, the plain things, which in some ways draws us back to like the whole purpose of you and I talking every week, which is we wanna get back to what the scripture teaches. We wanna follow the our Lord Jesus Christ very, very closely. I'm gonna clinging to the hymn of his rob as we walk through life so that we do not fall to those kind of false convictions. So I'm not, please hear me, loved ones. I'm not trying to call into question your faith as Tony just said. I am saying that there, this is kind of scary, just like we talked about. There are elements of the parables of the, of the soil that were equally scary. And so it's just in some ways to say, we gotta keep our heads not theological, swivel. We, we gotta be about the Lord's business, and we gotta be about understanding through prayer and study and communion with him, what it is that he wants to teach us in the purest way, knowing that the church itself and the world, of course, is never going to be entirely pure. At the same time, it is our responsibility to, as you already said, test for ourselves to understand what is that true gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Because some tears are going to be maybe easy to identify and with without, you know, throwing too much shade or. I was gonna say spilling the TI don't think that works here, but I'm not young anymore, so I'm trying to use or or put on blast. Yeah. I'm looking at you Mormons or Jehovah's witnesses. Like it's, it's easier there to be like, yeah, right, this is wrong. It is a false profession, but we've just gotta be careful even in our own hobby, horses not deviates into ground. I think that doesn't preclude us from being children of the light and children of the kingdom, but can still be disruptive or uh, you know, just distracting. But either way, yeah. I think what's scary to me about this is exactly what you said, Tony, is, is could it be that there are people that are very sincere about the Christian faith, but are sincerely wrong? Tony Arsenal: Yeah. Jesse Schwamb: And what does that mean for God's elected purpose? What does that mean for our understanding of how to interact in our churches in the world? Does that make sense? Tony Arsenal: It does. And I'm not sure whether you were trying to set up the, what might be the first genuine reformed brotherhood cliffhanger, but you did. Because we're on minute 54 of a 60 minute podcast, and, uh, there's no way we're gonna get into that and not go for another 60 minutes. So, Jesse, I, I'm, I'm glad that we are taking our time. Um, I know that sometimes it's easy when you put out a schedule or you put out a sort of projected content calendar to feel like you have to stick to it. But I wanna give these parables, the time they deserve and the effort and the, uh, the, uh, study and the discussion that they deserve. And I think the questions you're posing here at the end of this episode are really, really important. And they are questions that this parable forces us to ask. Right, right. It's not as though we're just using this as a launching pad. Um. If the workers can't tell the difference between the, the seed and the, or the, the weeds and the weeds, it's reasonable to think that the weeds themselves may not be able to tell the difference. Right? The sons of the evil one, um, are probably not in this parable, are probably not the people like in the back, like doing fake devil horns, right? And like, you know, like there's, there's probably more going on that we need to unpack and, and we'll do that next week. Jesse Schwamb: I love it. So we've got some good stuff coming then, because we've gotta, this is like, do you ever remember when you were in, uh, you know, doing your undergraduate postgraduate work, you'd get like a topic or an assignment or a paper and you'd be super stoked about it and you start reaching it, be like, okay, researching it. And you'd be like, all right, I've got some good topics here. And then you get into it, you're like, oh, but I'm gonna have to talk about this. And Oh, like before I could talk, I'm gonna have to explain this. Sometimes when we get into these, as you and I have been talking, that's what it feels li

Too often when women are dealing with health issues—whether menstrual-related problems, perimenopause, menopause, vaginal infections, recurrent yeast, BV, high-risk HPV, or abnormal pap smears—we're left without enough information. Women are experiencing fatigue, weight they can't seem to lose, autoimmunity, gut health issues, skin rashes, anxiety, depression, and migraines. I've been there. I've experienced these symptoms too. I know how difficult it is to get answers and to get real help. The standard medical approach, particularly for women's health issues, relies on very few test results. You can do a blood test, but the commonly ordered blood tests often don't include the tests that would provide the specific information we need to figure out the underlying issues. If you've been dealing with any kind of health issues and you've already been to the doctor's office, they've sent you home saying all of your blood work is normal and/or your vaginal culture is normal, or if you're dealing with recurrent bladder infections and the doctor says you can just keep taking antibiotics—to me, that's just not enough of an answer. If I haven't met you before, I'm Dr. Doni Wilson. I'm a naturopathic doctor, midwife, and clinical nutritionist. That means I was trained as a primary care provider for women's health, and I understand all of the guidelines of standard medicine. Yet many years ago I too was in the gynecology office with migraines, severe menstrual cramps, and high-risk HPV. I realized there has got to be more answers out there, and so I became a medical investigator for my own health but also for my patients. I've been in practice for 25 years helping women in the tri-state New York, Connecticut area as well as around the world. What I do now is specialty care for women dealing with all different types of health issues. I trained as a women's health expert in functional, holistic, naturopathic medicine in the '90s, and I'm still learning through my own health journey and through thousands of women I've helped over the years. I'm here to help you!

Hi and welcome to How Humans Heal. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, and in today's episode, I'm looking forward to introducing you to Nagina Abdullah. She's a weight loss coach for women in midlife and founder of the website MasalaBody.com. She helps women improve and boost their metabolism naturally. This is important because so many women have questions around metabolism and body weight, especially in midlife. I first met Nagina in a hot tub at a conference. It was like friends at first sight. We discovered that we both have backgrounds in science. I studied science for my bachelor's degree as well, so I totally get her background of studying cell biology and biochemistry. She took that science background and found ways to translate the science of the body to help women with their weight and metabolism. I'm so grateful for Nagina sharing all this with us as a starting point so you can start experimenting with these tips. We know there are so many reasons to be at a healthy weight. Part is how we feel, but at a healthier weight, we're preventing other health issues. We'll prevent cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and dementia. It's a lifestyle of eating in a way that helps us feel good in our body today and in our clothes but also helps our health going forward. We're here to help you!

Are you in perimenopause or post-menopause and dealing with recurrent infections, wondering why now? Why am I having bladder infections or vaginal infections when maybe I haven't had them any other time in my life, or not since many decades ago? I'm Dr. Doni Wilson. I'm a women's health expert, a naturopathic doctor and midwife, and I've been helping women with their health, including their vaginal and urinary health, for over 25 years. This is what I think about and help patients with every day, and I'm so glad that you're here listening in for this information. Maybe you've been searching for answers about why this is happening to you now, at this point in your life. Maybe your doctor isn't giving you answers—they may be prescribing more and more antibiotics for bacterial infections or antifungals for yeast infections without addressing the underlying cause. Or, if it's the case of high-risk HPV virus, they're just telling you there's nothing they can do and to come back and see if there are abnormal cells developing. I know because I'm trained as a primary care provider. I was trained the same way, and I understand that that's what the standard of care is offering right now. I also know, as an alternative or functional medicine practitioner for a couple of decades, that there ARE other options. Let's discuss in today's episode.  I'm here to help you!

La Agrupación de Vecinos del Rural valoró esta mañana de forma positiva los avances anunciados en el proyecto de saneamiento que afecta a distintas parroquias del municipio. Según señalaron, se trata de un paso “muy esperado” después de años de demandas para dotar al rural de unas infraestructuras básicas que consideran esenciales para mejorar la calidad de vida de la vecindad. El anuncio llega tras la aprobación del paso definitivo para la puesta a disposición de los terrenos necesarios en la fase 1A del plan de saneamiento, que incluye la conexión mediante colectores de Valón, Doniños y A Cabana, con más de 13 kilómetros de tubería, siete estaciones de bombeo e impulsión y la reposición de firmes y pavimentos. Desde la agrupación vecinal subrayaron que el convenio de colaboración firmado entre el Concello y la Xunta, con el respaldo económico de fondos europeos FEDER, representa una garantía para que las obras puedan ejecutarse con plazos más definidos. Recordaron además que la necesidad de expropiaciones puntuales no debe retrasar la puesta en marcha de los trabajos. La inversión prevista en esta primera fase asciende a más de 5,7 millones de euros, de los que el Concello aportará el 30%. En fases posteriores se abordarán otras zonas como San Xurxo, O Confurco y la cuenca del río Sardiña, completando una red de más de 60 kilómetros de colectores. La agrupación insistió en que seguirá atenta al cumplimiento de los plazos y a la coordinación de las administraciones para que el proyecto, que calificaron de “fundamental”, se ejecute sin nuevas demoras y se convierta en una realidad tangible para las familias del rural ferrolano.

Welcome to How Humans Heal! I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, and today I'm excited to introduce you to my friend, a pioneer in menopause fitness and the founder of Flipping Fifty, Debra Atkinson. She's been helping women exercise based on their age and menopause status for a long time, and now it's becoming way more popular. It's at the forefront right now, with everybody talking about menopause, their estrogen levels, and hormone replacement therapy. With Debra's expertise, we can talk about how we should be exercising when we're over fifty because exercise is different at that stage of life.  We're here to help you!

- Che cosa sono cinque pani e due pesci, di fronte alla fame di cinquemila persone? C'è una sproporzione, nel noto racconto biblico, fra le necessità di tutte quelle persone radunate per ascoltare Gesù e le risorse che i discepoli hanno per sfamarle. La pastora riformata Simona Rauch commenta in questa puntata il testo contenuto nell'evangelo di Luca a proposito della moltiplicazione dei pani e dei pesci. Un gesto che parla della sovrabbondanza del dono di Dio, per il quale imparare ad essere riconoscenti.- “Resurrection Blues”, di Otis Taylor. Una canzone che entra in relazione critica con la fede cristiana: utilizza immagini, simboli, figure cristologiche per evocare domande esistenziali sul dolore, sul sacrificio, sulla responsabilità, sulla paura del proprio ruolo di “salvatore”.

In this episode of How Humans Heal, I have the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Aimie Apigian, the author of "The Biology of Trauma". This is such an important topic for everyone, and it's of great interest to me because I've been researching how trauma affects us as humans and how we can recover it for over 25 years. Sometimes in our attempt to heal, we end up just re-traumatizing ourselves. We find that there's been a reason why our body and our mind have wanted to keep everything stuffed down and to keep everything packed tightly away. There's a fear in the healing process of not even knowing if we want to look inside because of all the stuff we're afraid we're going to uncover. Dr. Apigian's intention is to help people not feel as scared about the healing process. She went through the process of healing from trauma herself, and now hopes to help people before they reach the breaking point she hit.  We're here to help you!

In this episode, I'm going to be talking about how to prevent HPV from coming back again and how to keep it gone for good. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, and welcome to this episode of How Humans Heal. Many women who have successfully cleared high-risk HPV worry about what will happen when they become intimate again—either with the same partner or a different sexual partner. The haunting question remains: Is HPV just going to come back again? Often women have been dealing with high-risk HPV for a year, five years, or in some cases even more than 20 years. They've endured numerous procedures at the gynecology office, treatments, surgeries, and have repeatedly felt extremely afraid that the virus could return, cause abnormal cells, and disrupt their lives once more. Focusing on the fear of exposure can make us feel trapped, feeling like we can't connect intimately with other humans. We may become fearful and controlling toward our partners. Many women end up blaming their partners or men in general, when the reality is that HPV is a virus spread by both women and men. I have found there is a better way to keep HPV negative.

Bueno vamos a hacer balance de (1:43) de cómo ha vivido el sector de la hostelería este verano 2025 a falta (1:48) todavía de que bueno el concello haga una estimación de cómo ha sido el (1:53) verano a nivel turístico, el alcalde nos hacía un apunte hace un par de semanas (1:59) diciendo que había sido un verano espectacular. Tenemos con nosotros a (2:03) Emilio Vázquez el presidente de la asociación de hostelería de Ferrol (2:07) Emilio buenos días y tenemos también con nosotros a María Saavedra que es (2:12) técnico de hostelería de la asociación de hostelería de Ferrol. María qué tal (2:17) buenos días. Hola buenos días. Bueno bienvenidos los dos. ¿Qué podemos decir así (2:21) a lo bruto? Balance imagino que positivo. Así la primera palabra es estamos (2:26) contentos. El resultado de las fiestas de Ferrol como (2:31) remate del verano, el verano que nos vino con mucho sol mucha gente mucha playa (2:37) se estaba muy bien en la calle y eso se traduce en que hay movimiento de gente y (2:43) la hostelería funciona. Emilio pero mucho visitante ¿no? dejamos digamos alto el (2:50) nivel de la atención al cliente que viene de fuera aunque a ver algún (2:55) hostelero me decía la gente viene un poco subidita ¿no? en el sentido de que (3:00) no respetan horarios se piensan que la hostelería bueno pues es un que no (3:04) tenéis vida y gente que hacía sobremesas prolongadísimas que llegaba (3:08) tarde a las citas o incluso que reserva y luego no acude. Esto sigue (3:12) ocurriendo y sigue siendo una lacra que tenéis que combatir. Sigue pasando por (3:17) desgracia pero bueno la gente poco a poco ya se está acostumbrando a (3:21) reservar tanto el día como la noche a reservar con tiempo a ser puntual y a (3:27) pensar que bueno que tenemos vida y entonces lo que estamos haciendo es (3:34) digamos que sensibilizar a la gente de que realmente hay un horario que cumplir (3:38) y que nosotros también queremos llegar pronto a casa. Hay que respetar los (3:42) horarios de cocina que no se puede llegar a las cuatro de la tarde y (3:45) pretender que te hagan reverencias ¿no? Ahora mismo por ejemplo el horario (3:50) normal de cocina más o menos viene siendo las tres y media y a partir de (3:55) las tres y media es raro que te den de comer teniendo en cuenta que bueno que (3:59) hasta las tres y media es un horario bastante amplio como para que puedas (4:04) para que puedas comer sin prisa y con un poquito de sobremesa. Lo que si las (4:10) cocinas tienen un horario tienen que cerrar a las tres y media o cuatro o bueno (4:14) o a la hora que tengan que cerrar pero bueno. Hay gente que esto no lo (4:18) entiende ¿no? Desde que cerráis hasta que os vais todavía queda jornada. (4:24) Queda mucho trabajo desde que sirves el último plato hasta hasta que (4:30) realmente dejar la cocina digamos que preparada para el siguiente servicio pues (4:34) hay muchísimo trabajo. Fíjate que luego vamos a tener con nosotros a (4:37) Olegario Álvarez y también algunos comerciantes te comentan es que no (4:41) entendemos estamos aquí todo el día abiertos y resulta que llegan las ocho y (4:45) media a la hora de cerrar y cinco minutos antes te entra alguien y te hace (4:49) desmontar toda la tienda y te dicen hay como falta de (4:54) respeto al trabajador ¿no? que tiene un horario y hay que cumplir ese (5:00) horario. Esto tenemos que meternoslo en la cabeza y (5:04) respetar a la gente ¿no? Hombre desde la pandemia yo creo que... Hay gente que dice (5:09) aquello del cliente siempre tiene razón bueno a veces no. Eso era antes, eso era antes. (5:14) Tienes razón si la tienes nada más pero realmente las cosas gracias a Dios van (5:18) cambiando los horarios en hostelería tienen que cambiar porque bueno antes (5:23) eran horas y horas y horas y bueno no siempre las horas eran rentables y ahora (5:30) sí ahora yo creo que tenemos que racionalizar un poquito el trabajo el (5:34) tiempo y el servicio más que nada porque vamos a trabajar las horas útiles que (5:39) bueno. Y respetar las libranzas y todo lo demás. Y los descansos, las vacaciones y (5:46) bueno todo lo sobre todo el horario de todos los días teniendo en cuenta que (5:50) bueno que los fines de semana es cuando tenemos que tener un refuerzo tenemos (5:54) que trabajar un poquito un poquito más acelerados pero bueno que realmente (5:58) tenemos un horario eso tenemos que cumplirlo y la gente lo que tiene que (6:03) hacer es entenderlo. Que en verano siempre es mucho más elástico porque (6:08) sencillamente viene gente de fuera hay mucha más gente ahí digamos que doblas (6:13) alguna mesa al mediodía y doblas alguna mesa de noche los locales estaban (6:16) realmente a tope y bueno eso nos da mucho ánimo de pensar que esto (6:21) funciona pero bueno tenemos no vivimos un día vivimos de todo el año y todo el (6:25) año tenemos que concienciar a la gente de que realmente tenemos un horario y que (6:30) por favor nos ayuden a cumplirlo y que realmente (6:35) nuestro trabajo ya es bastante duro no complicarlo más. María qué nos (6:40) puedes contar acerca de cifras de este de este verano habla Emilio de (6:46) satisfacción pero lo reforzamos con datos. Sí bueno sí que es cierto que las (6:52) cifras fueron bastante buenas un poco en muy parecido al año pasado y bastante (6:57) afluencia de gente es en las cifras en ese sentido sí que fueron muy buenas no (7:01) sé si podemos decir el 100% pero sí que es cierto que fueron cifras bastante (7:05) altas de ocupación. A ver los precios han subido el gasto se ha reducido. Es un (7:12) poco lo que también comentaba antes con Emilio. Esto también lo comentan en (7:15) algunos que te llega un grupo de gente y te piden una ración para tres no y (7:20) cosas por el estilo. Sí que es cierto que la ocupación fue bastante buena (7:23) hay bastante afluencia de gente pero sí que hay gente que nos traslada un poco (7:27) eso no el sentido de si vienen te consumen pero quizás una consumición un (7:32) poco más austera no recortando un poco en ciertas cosas pues lo que eso que (7:36) comentas que sobre todo eso lo da mucho pues la gente que es turista en (7:41) diferencia con la gente que está aquí de todo el año no por ejemplo sí que nos (7:43) tienen comentado de gente que es de todo el año pues te pide son dos te piden una (7:47) ración para cada uno el turismo igual más pues eso te vienen cinco o seis (7:52) personas y para compartir. Llama la atención en cualquier caso no porque (7:56) mucha gente viene de capitales grandes de Madrid de otras ciudades en las (8:02) que el coste de la vida y también de acudir a los establecimientos de hotelería (8:07) está muy por encima de lo que está aquí en Ferrolterra y llama la atención que (8:11) luego pues hagan esos recortes. Sí lo único claro al final todo sube en la (8:18) vida entonces claro igual si tiene un cierto presupuesto total. Luego ponen en (8:23) los comentarios esto de raciones abundantísimas. Sí claro igual allí (8:26) también claro no sabemos en cada zona al final tendrán sus circunstancias y sus (8:30) cosas y que es cierto que al final pues es eso. Igual la gente tiene un (8:33) presupuesto dirigido a vacaciones entonces quizás está claro que todo (8:39) está subiendo bastante en tanto en hostelería bueno gastos en general (8:43) entonces igual los presupuestos pueden que sean algo más pequeños y tengan que (8:46) adaptarlos en ciertas cosas. Entonces sí que es cierto que eso la ocupación y lo (8:51) que es la afluencia de gente fue bastante grande ya digo en comparación con otros (8:55) años pues bastante parecida por lo que nos trasladan pero sí que un poco es se (8:59) notan esos pequeños recortes. Y salvo la última semana de agosto digamos que (9:04) el terraceo os ha salvado y os ha dado mucha vida a muchos negocios. Nos ha (9:09) salvado digamos que todo el día. Ya digamos que desde las 10 de la mañana (9:15) las terrazas estaban llenas y bueno yo creo que no paramos. Cerramos un poquito (9:19) más tarde de lo habitual. Cerramos a las 12 de la noche y bueno la gente seguía (9:24) queriendo un sitio de terraza más que nada porque el tiempo llegó y además (9:29) estábamos hablando de unas noches maravillosas y la gente quería sobre todo (9:34) la gente de vacaciones que no tenía prisa lo que quería era disfrutar del terraceo. (9:37) El ayuntamiento ha hecho mucho boom de hemos traído 8.000 personas a ver a Omar (9:43) Montes, los conciertos han sido multitudinarios, la plaza de armas. (9:47) ¿Os gusta? ¿Lo valoráis positivamente? ¿Eso influye también en el movimiento para (9:53) la hostelería o la gente viene a los conciertos y luego se va sin dejar (9:57) huella? Pues, digamos que es muy bonito tener unas fiestas, una última semana de (10:07) agosto, muy bonito tener unas fiestas, un cartel bastante interesante de música, (10:11) música para todas las edades y otra cosa es que la plaza de armas se llene y que (10:16) no se entere el resto de zorro. Por ejemplo la plaza de España ni nos (10:19) enteramos que estábamos en fiestas y quien dice la plaza de España decimos (10:24) hablamos también de otros barrios. De hecho, en la zona del ultramar muchos (10:29) establecimientos cerraron durante esa semana porque decían es que... ¿para qué? (10:35) No, y además incluso el barrio de Esteiro se convierte en un aparcamiento para (10:38) digamos que para el centro de Ferrol y que la gente realmente una vez que (10:41) acaban los conciertos pues no se queda, no se queda, es como cuando vas al (10:45) rafting, la carretera digamos que cuando acaba la autopista tienes allí la (10:50) malata y cuando acaba el partido vuelves a meterte en la autopista y no te enteras de lo que es Ferrol. (10:56) Pues aquí es igual, digamos que el centro sí que estuvo con mucho movimiento. (11:00) ¿O sea que pediríais que se repartiese más un poquito el programa de fiestas por los barrios, María? (11:05) Sí, yo creo que al final eso es un poco lo que dice Emilio, ¿no? Está bien atraer mucha gente... (11:09) Supongo que esto os llega a la oficina de la asociación por parte de los hosteleros, ¿no? (11:13) Sí, claro. (11:13) ¿Tenéis que hacer algo? (11:15) Claro, a ver, pues hay perfiles pues que prefieren que no se haga más en su zona, (11:20) o sea, al final cada negocio pues va también dirigido a un tipo de... (11:23) No, fíjate, en la zona de Plaza de Armas hubo compañeros de hostelería que les hicieron (11:30) levantar las terrazas y tuvieron que cerrar porque no podían atender al (11:36) público, ¿no? Y luego tampoco dejan pues instalar una barra afuera, cosas por el estilo. (11:40) Sí, no cabe duda. Si tienes un buen montaje, digamos que adaptado a las fiestas de Ferrol, (11:49) pues realmente es porque quieres dar servicio y además una fiesta necesita de locales de hostelería (11:55) alrededor. Lo que tienes que hacer es darte facilidades para que, bueno, estamos hablando (12:01) de que puntualmente... Estamos hablando de tres conciertos. De los conciertos o cuatro conciertos (12:07) realmente que son los que movilizan mucho a la gente y ahí es donde yo creo que tampoco hay que (12:13) poner muchas pegas a que quieras trabajar y encima dar un poco de servicio porque, bueno, (12:17) por mucha orquesta que venga o por mucho grupo, realmente lo que necesitas es un acompañamiento (12:23) de hostelería y que la gente realmente, en el momento previo al concierto y después del concierto, (12:30) hombre, que haya todo ese movimiento de gente que repercuta en la hostelería de la ciudad. (12:35) Bueno, por tanto, balance positivo, pero se puede mejorar. Ese sería el titular, ¿no? (12:40) Sí. Sí, bueno, tenías tu razón con lo de la ración para tres y jarra de agua. (12:46) Digamos que eso es el recorte más drástico del presupuesto. (12:50) ¿Y agua? ¿Del grifo? (12:51) Por supuesto. Además, obligado. (12:53) Oye, que hay sitios por ahí adelante que te cobran el agua del grifo, ¿eh? O sea, ojito con el tema. (12:59) Ahora te ponen el tema de esa agua filtrada, no sé qué, y te la cobran igual. (13:03) Y esa agua encantadora del grifo. (13:05) Claro. (13:06) Unas forcadas maravillosas. (13:07) Bueno, una cosilla antes de despediros y después de ese titular que nos dejáis, positivo sí, (13:14) pero se pueden hacer cosas para mejorar la situación de la hostelería. (13:21) Playas. Sería maravilloso que las playas de Ferrol contasen con chiringuito a pie de playa, (13:27) como ocurre en muchos otros lugares. (13:31) Una cosa es montar un churro de chiringuito y otra cosa es montar algo decente. (13:37) De hecho, la ayunta ha sacado ahora una normativa para homogeneizar los chiringuitos de playa, (13:42) pero aquí en Ferrol seguimos sin tener esa posibilidad, salvo en Doniños. (13:47) El resto de las playas, bueno, en Valdoviño también es otro ayuntamiento, pero en las de Ferrol, (13:52) Caranza, por ejemplo, que pide a Gritos tener allí, aprovechando toda esa zona, (13:57) un establecimiento que puedas tomar un refresco, un helado, que incluso pueda tener una pequeña terracita. (14:04) Otras playas. Podría ocurrir algo semejante. (14:09) Desde hostelería, ¿tenéis algo que decir a este respecto? (14:12) Hombre, echamos de menos poder compararnos con las playas de alrededor, (14:19) aunque no pertenezcan al Concejo de Ferrol. (14:24) Pero bueno, si miramos lo que están haciendo otros ayuntamientos, digamos que en sus playas, (14:31) las están revitalizando, están buscando aparcamientos, están buscando duchas, (14:35) están buscando conseguir esa bandera azul y todo eso es a base de dar un buen servicio. (14:41) Y además incluso los chiringuitos yo creo que dan mucha vida a la playa. (14:46) Estamos hablando de chiringuitos, no de chabolismo. (14:49) Estamos hablando de chiringuitos bien montados, de unas terrazas amplias. (14:53) Y bueno, montadas en este sentido por los terreros responsables. (14:58) Respetando internados en la naturaleza, ¿no? (15:02) Porque aquí todo es red natura y no sé qué, no sé cuánto, (15:08) pero es red natura prácticamente toda la costa. (15:10) Y vemos otros lugares en los que es compatible esa explotación durante unos meses de verano, (15:16) que también genera empleo, genera riqueza y da un servicio a los usuarios de la playa. (15:21) Hombre, seguimos siendo responsables con el medio ambiente, (15:25) digamos que teniendo una terraza, cuidándola y bueno, digamos que dándole un poco de vida a las playas. (15:32) ¿Quién dice esto? Hablando en camping, digamos que... (15:35) ¿Y lo habéis planteado formalmente o lo pensáis plantear formalmente ante la administración? (15:40) Por ahora no, porque supuestamente tenemos que hacer un inventario de chiringuitos. (15:44) El inventario de chiringuitos consiste más o menos en ir playa a playa, (15:48) buscando digamos que chiringuitos y si cabe la posibilidad de aumentar el número. (15:53) A partir de ahí, digamos que plantear las limitaciones que pueda haber para montar los chiringuitos. (15:59) Y después, una vez que haya permisos, a partir de ahí animar, (16:03) desde que realmente lo que necesitamos es más chiringuitos (16:06) y empezar a vender las playas como se venden en todo el mundo. (16:08) María, ¿como técnico lo ves factible? (16:11) Sí, o sea, sí que es cierto que al final no es algo que se pueda hacer de la noche a la mañana. (16:16) Al final también sí que es cierto que muchas zonas de playa no dependen sólo del concello, (16:20) sino también de puertos o incluso a veces de costas. (16:26) Entonces, claro, sí que es viable pues quizás presentar proyectos o no sé, (16:33) desde la asociación quizás con las administraciones, (16:35) pero sí que es cierto que tendrían que colaborar bastante diferentes administraciones. (16:40) Claro, yo creo que no depende sólo del concello, sino que hay algunas que dependen también de la diputación. (16:44) Pero hay que ir metiendo la patita, porque si no es que nos van a ganar. (16:48) Sí que es cierto que al final estaría bien un proyecto así, (16:50) pero claro que sí que es cierto que sería un proyecto que llevaría bastante tiempo. (16:55) Pero bueno, sí que es factible. (16:56) Pues pongámonos a ello. (16:58) Gracias a los dos por estar con nosotros y bueno, no sé si va a haber fiesta de fin de verano. (17:04) Tenemos una fecha, el 20, parece ser que se puede adelantar al 19 (17:10) y no siendo posible por las complicaciones que tenemos en cuestión de montajes, podría ser el 27. (17:16) Pero bueno, la fiesta va a venir.

In this episode I'm really excited to introduce you to Dr. Nasha Winters, who is author of the book "The Metabolic Approach to Cancer." She's a naturopathic doctor and founder of Metabolic Regen University and has created a metabolic approach to helping people prevent and address cancer and metabolic health disorders. I'm so glad she's here with me on How Humans Heal today. Because Dr. Nasha and I are both naturopathic doctors and graduated from naturopathic medical school at a similar time, our paths have crossed many times over the years. We are both passionate about sharing the message that health can be achieved by addressing the root cause of the health issue. We help patients figure out what's going on under the surface and help them understand what that means in terms of what they can implement to make a difference, especially related to cancer. Dr. Nasha's teaches around the world to both lay audiences and professional audiences, and created the Metabolic Regen University as a way to train clinicians in her approach to cancer. In this episode, Dr. Nasha shares her personal experience with ovarian cancer, how she healed herself, and how that inspired her to become a naturopathic doctor. We talk about high risk HPV related cancer, and cancer in general – how to think about it differently, and non-conventional ways to support healing. If you or someone you know is dealing with cancer, or at risk of cancer, this is an essential interview to listen to in your research process to identify alternative and integrative ways to prevent and address cancer, alongside conventional cancer treatment or if/when conventional approaches fail. We're here to help you!

Have you been wondering whether high-risk HPV and having an abnormal pap smear could impact your ability to have a baby? In this episode, I'm going to talk about the link between high-risk HPV and fertility issues. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a Naturopathic Doctor and Certified Professional Midwife, as well as a Clinical Nutritionist. I've helped thousands of women with abnormal pap smears and high-risk HPV virus to help them prevent progression of abnormal cells, prevent cancer, and help them clear high-risk HPV to negative and keep it negative throughout their lives. I help a lot of women who are at the time in their life where they're hoping for a pregnancy. In fact, sometimes women have gone in to see the gynecologist for a pap smear because they're trying to get pregnant, and that's when they find out they are testing positive for high-risk HPV. For some women, it's once they are already pregnant and go in for a pap smear in early pregnancy, only to discover they're testing positive for high-risk HPV. I also help women who are peri and postmenopausal and dealing with HPV at that point in their lives as well. In this discussion, I want to focus on those of you who are thinking about pregnancy, or might already be pregnant, and are now dealing with high-risk HPV. I know that in the doctor's office, they're not likely to tell you that there is anything you can do. They're likely to tell you to just come back and get retested to see if the cells progressed or got worse, but they're not likely to tell you about any kind of diet changes, lifestyle changes, let alone nutrients, herbs, or other approaches that you can take to protect yourself from HPV and support your body's ability to clear the virus to negative.

Dal Vangelo secondo LucaIn quel tempo, Gesù passava insegnando per città e villaggi, mentre era in cammino verso Gerusalemme.Un tale gli chiese: «Signore, sono pochi quelli che si salvano?».Disse loro: «Sforzatevi di entrare per la porta stretta, perché molti, io vi dico, cercheranno di entrare, ma non ci riusciranno.Quando il padrone di casa si alzerà e chiuderà la porta, voi, rimasti fuori, comincerete a bussare alla porta, dicendo: “Signore, aprici!”. Ma egli vi risponderà: “Non so di dove siete”. Allora comincerete a dire: “Abbiamo mangiato e bevuto in tua presenza e tu hai insegnato nelle nostre piazze”. Ma egli vi dichiarerà: “Voi, non so di dove siete. Allontanatevi da me, voi tutti operatori di ingiustizia!”.Là ci sarà pianto e stridore di denti, quando vedrete Abramo, Isacco e Giacobbe e tutti i profeti nel regno di Dio, voi invece cacciati fuori.Verranno da oriente e da occidente, da settentrione e da mezzogiorno e siederanno a mensa nel regno di Dio. Ed ecco, vi sono ultimi che saranno primi, e vi sono primi che saranno ultimi».Parola del Signore

Hi and welcome to How Humans Heal. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, and today I'm excited to introduce you to Jane Hogan, a functional medicine certified health coach and wellness educator. She's the author of the best-selling book "Pain-Free on Purpose." I love that name. The subtitle is "Use Your Mind to Heal Your Body and Get Your Life Back," which sounds amazing and so helpful. I can't wait to hear all about this new book. I was sharing with Jane, and a lot of the How Humans Heal listeners know my story and health journey - I spent so many years in pain - pain migraines, and from having Ehlers Danlos syndrome and joint hypermobility, as well as pain from chronic arthritis. So I understand what it's like to be in pain and how it feels to want to get out of pain. Often as humans, we have not just physical pain but emotional pain, and often they go together. When we are in physical and emotional pain, we tend to reach for substances to get us out of pain, even if it's temporarily, and even if there are side effects or addictions. What Jane is here to share with us is how she was able to get herself out of pain without medications, and without side effects or addictions. We're here to help you!

I'm going to talk you through the progression from abnormal pap smears to cervical cancer, what the risk is, and share an example case. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor and midwife turned advocate for women dealing with abnormal pap smears and high-risk HPV virus. The conventional medical system is not doing enough to help women prevent cervical cancer.

Hi and welcome to How Humans Heal. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, and today I'm excited to introducing you to Anu Simh. She is a Board-Certified Functional Health Coach and the author of the new book called "Flourish from Within: Feed Your Gut for Lifelong Health." We're going to be talking about, you might have guessed, the gut microbiome and all the amazing ways that optimizing your gut microbiome can optimize your health. The microbiome is such an important topic, especially over the past 10 years. More and more people are learning about the microbiome and getting a better understanding of how it impacts our health. We hear a lot about probiotics and sometimes we hear about prebiotics, but there's still a lot of confusion about it. That's why I'm really glad we can set the record straight today. The journey to optimal gut health is personal and unique to each individual, but the fundamental principles remain the same: feed your beneficial bacteria with diverse, whole foods, support them with healthy lifestyle choices, and be patient with the process. Your microbiome has been your partner throughout your entire life, and with the right care, it can continue to support your health for years to come. And we're here to help you!

Did you just get your pap smear results back showing that you're testing positive for high-risk HPV virus? In this video, you'll learn what the results really mean—and what to do next. Maybe your doctor mentioned that there are some abnormal cells, and they've told you to either wait and come back in three, six, or twelve months to see if it gets worse. Or perhaps your doctor is already talking about doing a biopsy, procedure, or surgery to remove abnormal cells. No matter what the situation, it's a reason for concern because now you have information saying there's a virus in your body that has the potential to cause cancer. You don't want to just wait around and see if it gets worse – you want to do something about it. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a Naturopathic Doctor, Professional Midwife, and Clinical Nutritionist. I've been helping women with abnormal pap smear to heal their cervix, and prevent cervical cancer as well as vaginal cancer, for over 25 years. I was originally trained to do primary care, but I saw that there was a huge gap in women's healthcare. I saw that women need access to help to address HPV virus and prevent it from causing abnormal cells. I've made a very conscious decision to completely focus my practice on helping women whose doctors are telling them that all they can do is wait and see if it gets worse or recurs. Doctors are telling women there is nothing they can do to get rid of HPV, when my patients are able to get negative HPV and pap results. I'm here to help women with everything you can do to prevent cervical cancer. I do this both locally in the New York - Connecticut area, and around the world, because women can learn and implement my protocol to fight high-risk HPV and reverse abnormal pap smear results from wherever you are.

Welcome to How Humans Heal. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson. This episode is about psilocybin, which is a psychedelic substance that is helping people heal from many health issues, including anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The way we help people with mental health issues, and trauma in general, is changing, and psychedelic therapy is part of that change. I'm proud to introduce you to Nina Badoux. She is a psychedelic practitioner and founder of Nanacatl Healing, as well as a board member of the Guild of Guides Netherlands. She's joining us from the Netherlands. She is currently studying for her master's degree in Psychedelics: Mind, Medicine and Culture from the University of Exeter. She has over 7 years of experience guiding private and group ceremonies using psilocybin. You may have heard of magic mushrooms? Psilocybin is the active substance in the magic mushrooms. I'm so honored to have Nina here with us today because she has so much experience and knowledge about the use of psilocybin and how it's being used to help so many people around the world. We're here to help you!

You don't have to live with HPV. Here's how thousands of women have cleared it naturally! Even though your doctors or gynecologist may have told you that there's nothing you can do to get rid of high-risk HPV, I'm here to tell you that it is possible to reverse HPV and avoid procedures and surgeries. Unfortunately, doctors often scare women saying that they will have to deal with HPV for the rest of their lives, and that they may need to have a hysterectomy. If that's what your doctor told you, I'm so sorry, and I'm so glad that you found this video. I would be happy to help you. I've been helping thousands of women for over 25 years to clear high-risk HPV virus to negative, to heal their cervix, to prevent the need for surgeries, and to prevent HPV from ever coming back again. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson. I'm a Naturopathic Doctor, a Certified Professional Midwife, and a Certified Clinical Nutritionist. I specialize in helping women, and my goal is to help over a million women to clear HPV and prevent cervical cancer, as well as other HPV-related cancers. So if you're looking for a holistic approach, a natural approach—using diet, herbs, nutrients, and other natural ways to treat high-risk HPV, heal your cervix, and prevent cancer without surgery — then you are in the right place!

Many of you have been asking me about my recent trip to a healing retreat center in the Peruvian Amazon, so in this episode I'm going to be sharing about my experience at the healing retreat center, why you may want to consider going to a retreat center or doing a detox or reset type program, and also why a person might consider using psychedelic plant medicines, such as Ayahuasca, as a way to support your healing process. This video is going to be helpful for you if you have tested positive for high-risk HPV virus and maybe abnormal cells on your cervix and potential risk of cervical cancer or vaginal cancer, or any other kind of cancer for that matter. This will also be helpful for those of you who are working to conceive a pregnancy and prevent a miscarriage, and those of you who are going through perimenopause and post-menopausal symptoms, weight gain, blood sugar issues, sleep problems, anxiety, depression, migraines, autoimmune conditions, and simply wanting to prevent other health issues like heart disease and dementia. So really, this information could be helpful for all of us humans to heal!  I hope this gives you new hope and inspiration for your ability to heal.

Doni & Chaim Bin-Nun on Let's get Real with Coach Menachem, Sunday June 15, 2025 #234A Relationship Reborn: A Father and Son's Journey from Chaos to Connection

In this episode I'm going to help you answer the question: should I be starting hormone replacement therapy during peri or post menopause? Over the past 23 years, there has been a lot of fear about hormone replacement therapy (HRT). The Women's Health Initiative originally reported a concern about breast cancer risk, and that led many women to avoid hormone replacement. A newly updated report from the same researchers has completely changed the perspective on hormone replacement. The researchers are now stating that HRT is not increasing breast cancer risk the way they once feared. Instead, HRT can actually decrease disease risk, including by decreasing heart disease, dementia, diabetes, and osteoporosis. That is such essential information, and such a shift in what we've been hearing, that I wanted to cover this topic in detail. Choosing hormone replacement therapy is a very individualized decision. It's important to understand and think through your medical history and your health risk factors. It's also important to work with a practitioner who understands the latest research. It is essential to individualize your doses and how hormones are delivered to your body (oral, cream, patch, etc). I'm going to cover how to find a practitioner who can guide you every step of the way. I'm here to help you!

If you just found out that you're testing positive for high-risk HPV on your pap smear result, I'm going to walk you through the five essential steps I recommend for anyone who has received a positive high risk HPV diagnosis. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor and certified professional midwife who has been in practice for over 25 years helping women understand high risk HPV and what they can do to protect themselves from cancer associated with the high-risk HPV virus. You're in the perfect place to learn exactly what you need to do because I understand how scary it can be when you first get those test results back from your gynecologist showing positive for high-risk HPV. The diagnosis might be type 16 or 18 or one of the other fourteen types of high-risk HPV that are associated with cancer risk. No matter which type is testing positive—or sometimes more than one—it can trigger significant fear, anxiety, and worry about what to do next. What can you do to protect yourself? How can you be proactive? Often, gynecology offices tell patients to "just wait and come back in three to six months or a year, and there's nothing you can do about it." I speak with thousands of women every year, and this is what they consistently tell me their doctor's office says—that there's nothing you can do but wait and see if it causes abnormal cells or cancer. As someone who has been helping women for over 25 years—thousands of women around the world—I'm here to tell you that you don't have to wait and see if it turns into cancer. There are steps you can take starting now, and that's the purpose of this guide: to give you clear direction on what you can do immediately. I know it's challenging to find this We're here to help!

In this episode I'm excited to introduce you to Dr. Shilpa Sayana. She is Board Certified in both Internal Medicine and Functional Medicine and practices in the Los Angeles area. As a menopause expert, Dr. Sayana helps women through perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause, focusing on hormone replacement and both symptom management and prevention of health issues throughout a woman's lifetime. Over 1 million women become menopausal every year in the U.S. I – Dr. Doni – am so grateful to have been trained in how to support women through menopause using natural approaches and bio-identical hormones when I was in naturopathic medical school at Bastyr in the 1990s. I've been helping women for over 25 years. And I'm so glad more medical doctors, like Dr. Shilpa, are becoming open to natural approaches, and trained in how to support women. We're here to help!

In this episode I'm going to be talking about how to choose clinically effective supplements to help you clear high-risk HPV virus naturally using nutrients, herbs, and other natural products. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor, midwife, and clinical nutritionist. I'm an expert in helping women address high-risk HPV virus and abnormal pap smears, meaning abnormal cells on the cervix, vagina, vulva, or other areas. I've been helping women in this area for over 25 years, starting when I was in naturopathic medical school specializing in women's healthcare. I've subsequently helped thousands of women from around the world clear high-risk HPV virus to negative and prevent it from coming back again. Women come to me for one-on-one or group programs and say, "Dr. Doni, this is what I've been taking for the past three months or six months or even years, and HPV hasn't gone away. What am I missing?" Today, I want to share the five most common mistakes I find when I review supplements that people are taking to try to fend off HPV. It's not about perfection or being hard on yourself. It's about being gentle with yourself, acceptance of your body, acceptance of your thoughts, acceptance of your emotions. It's through being present with ourselves that we develop self-love, self-acceptance that's extremely healing and necessary when dealing with HPV and cancer risk. I'm here to help!

The number of women who are postmenopausal is increasing every year. By 2030, it's estimated that over a billion women around the world will be postmenopausal. That's exactly why in this video I'm going to be talking about menopause—both perimenopause and postmenopause. I believe this topic deserves way more attention, and I want to be part of educating women and being an advocate during the menopause transition, helping them make informed decisions for their health now and into the future. I'm Dr. Doni, host of How Humans Heal and Women's Health expert. I've been helping women with their health, including menopausal symptoms, for over 25 years. I recently completed two additional trainings in helping women through menopause, including a menopause boot camp taught by my mentor and instructor in Women's Health, Dr. Tori Hudson. I want to share information that should be within your reach to help you become better advocates for yourself and make informed decisions going forward. There's so much I want to teach you about menopause—more than I can cover in this one video. Today, I want to talk about the common symptoms and health issues for women to start thinking about and noticing in your bodies so you can understand the experience of menopause for yourself.

Today I'm excited to introduce you to James Barry. James is the CEO and founder of an organ-based superfood seasoning called PLUCK. He's also a private chef with over 20 years of experience cooking for celebrities like Tom Cruise, George Clooney, and Barbra Streisand. Additionally, James is the co-author of several cookbooks, helping authors create their recipes. As a clinical nutritionist and naturopathic doctor, I'm constantly talking to people about their diet and food choices. Patients continuously ask me what I eat, what they should eat, and what they should avoid. It's an ongoing conversation about food, which is crucial because our food can be either our medicine or work against our health if we're not paying attention. We need to understand that what we consume directly affects our overall well-being, from our immune system to our energy levels and beyond. James works as what I would call a "holistic chef" - someone who knows how to cook and eat in a healthy way. He describes himself as "the how guy." When clients meet with doctors, nutritionists, or dietitians who tell them what foods to avoid, they often wonder, "How do I do that?" That's when healthcare professionals call Chef James because he understands food swaps and knows how to make those changes delicious. He ensures people don't feel deprived, which is key when dispensing information about food. We must remember people are human with emotions tied to food. We can't just say, "Don't eat this and eat that." We need to consider the emotional state, support people where they are, and then swap in foods that will help them reach their desired outcomes.

In this eye-opening episode of Keeping Abreast, Dr. Jenn Simmons is joined by naturopathic doctor and women's health expert Dr. Doni Wilson for a deeply important conversation about HPV—the virus that's quietly impacting millions of women and is still surrounded by silence, shame, and misinformation.Together, they explore the truth about HPV, its undeniable link to cervical cancer, and why the current medical system is missing critical pieces in prevention and care. From the overlooked role of vaginal estrogen to how immune health and blood sugar impact risk, Dr. Doni and Dr. Jenn share a new path forward—one rooted in empowerment, education, and evidence-based prevention.

In this episode I'm going to talk about five types of mind-body medicine that I recommend you include in your healing plan to help your body protect you from high-risk HPV virus and prevent cancer caused by high-risk HPV strains. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor, clinical nutritionist, and midwife. I've been practicing for over 25 years, specializing in women's health and helping women address abnormal pap smears, including high-risk HPV. I help them heal their cervix, get HPV to negative, and keep it negative—which is unheard of in standard care. In standard care, well-trained surgeons can remove abnormal cells, but that doesn't remove the virus, which is why many people are told HPV won't go away. Yet research clearly shows the human immune system can clear HPV, even though it's a DNA virus with 14 high-risk types associated with cancer. The immune system can clear HPV, and I focus on this information. Why isn't your immune system clearing HPV? Why is it still there? Why is it causing abnormal cells when 90% of people clear the virus without developing abnormal cells? We need to determine what in your system is depleted, imbalanced, or disrupted. One natural approach to clearing HPV is the mind-body connection. I didn't always know this was essential. However, through case after case of working with women and researching what works best, I've found several effective approaches: - Diet changes to eliminate inflammatory foods - Nutrients to address deficiencies and support immunity - Probiotics for gut and vaginal microbiomes - Homeopathy to remind your immune system to protect against HPV We're here to help!

In this episode I'm excited to introduce you to Dr. Toni Engram. She is what's referred to as a biological dentist. She's also an integrative health coach and the owner of Flourished Dental Boutique in Richardson, Texas. For a lot of people, we think a dentist is only a dentist, but that's not really the case anymore. To understand what it means to be a biological dentist, think of it as the functional medicine or naturopathic version of dentistry. While biological dentists still do fillings, crowns, and other standard procedures, how they do these things is very intentional. Biological medicine has an appreciation for the biological terrain. It's not just about one germ causing one illness - it's about what our toxic bucket looks like. Have we filled it too much and is it overflowing, or are we supporting it? In biological dentistry, practitioners look carefully at what materials they're using and whether those are helping or hurting. They look for infections in a patient's mouth that might be hiding and could impact overall health. When toxins or infections are involved, biological dentists use techniques that aim to be safer and more natural whenever possible. They don't use fluoride anywhere in the office. When taking out old silver fillings that are half mercury, they follow specific protocols to protect patients and staff. Even the filling materials used are carefully sourced as responsibly as possible. People can search online for a biological dentist in their area. Many patients switch to a biological dentist when their regular dentist retires, or when they realize that traditional dentistry doesn't align with their values. It's about finding a practitioner whose approach matches what you believe in. Some patients don't want fluoride, don't want unnecessary junk in their mouth, and want to ensure dental work is done safely without unnecessary X-rays. What's interesting is that Dr. Toni also has health coach certification, which isn't common even among biological dentists. This gives her a broader perspective on health - she's not just looking at the patient's mouth but considering how their diet and overall health relate to what's happening with their teeth. Health coaching skills help her with one-on-one patient conversations and in communicating with the public through platforms like Instagram and YouTube. It gives her more fine-tuned skills around how to actually help patients to do the things that support them in getting healthier overall. We're here to help!

In this episode I'm going to be covering 5 foods to include in your diet to help clear high risk HPV and prevent HPV-related cancers such as cervical and vaginal cancer. I know how confusing it can be to figure out what to eat and what not to eat. Once you realize that the food you feed your body each day can be your medicine and actually help prevent health issues, you start to understand the importance of choosing foods that will do the most good for you. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor, clinical nutritionist, and midwife. I've been practicing for over 25 years and specialize in women's health, particularly helping women with abnormal pap smears as well as humans with various different stress-related health issues. I want to emphasize that the food choices I'll be mentioning here will help your overall health. It's not that they only help with abnormal pap results or high risk HPV. When we choose these foods, they help our whole health. Most often, when women test positive for high risk HPV, they are also dealing with other health issues in their body—whether that's digestive issues, skin issues, weight issues, anxiety, depression, mental health issues, sleep issues, autoimmunity, hormone imbalances, or other health concerns. The foods I'll cover in this video will help with any and all of these health issues. Our priority is to choose foods to help support your immune system protect you from high risk HPV so you can clear it to negative and prevent it from coming back again. We're here to help!

In this episode I'm excited to introduce you to Dr. Brad Jacobs, who is board certified in internal medicine and integrative medicine. He is the owner of BlueWave Medicine Clinic in Sausalito, California, and also co-author of the Anti-Inflammation Cookbook. He specializes in psychedelic medicine and a form of therapy called Hakomi. Dr. Brad is now leading in-person retreats in Costa Rica on precision medicine and longevity. We'll be talking about health transformation, longevity, and recovery from trauma by making diet changes to reduce inflammation and using psychedelic medicines. Dr. Brad has been involved with integrative medicine since he was 10 years old. He grew up doing martial arts, and that Chinese upbringing infused him with a different view of how to think about health and healing—not just the treatment of disease but the prevention of disease, thriving and flourishing. I'm so glad Dr. Brad was able to join me on How Humans Heal today to discuss these important topics to help all of you know what is possible for transforming your health and recovering from trauma.

Are you worried about how high-risk HPV could be affecting your fertility and future pregnancy? In this video, I'm going to be sharing everything you need to know about high-risk HPV and how to protect yourself from HPV-related cancer, and support your fertility and pregnancy at the same time. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson. I am a naturopathic doctor, midwife, and women's health expert with over 25 years of experience. Welcome to the How Humans Heal podcast. Maybe these are some of the questions you have: Is it OK to get pregnant when I'm testing positive for HPV? Is it OK to get pregnant if I have abnormal cells on my Pap smear result? What if I'm already pregnant and then I find out that I have HPV and abnormal cells? What can I do or take during pregnancy and even during breastfeeding to protect myself from high-risk HPV and HPV-related cancer that is safe for my baby? Another common question is: Is it possible to pass the high-risk HPV to my baby either during pregnancy or after? I know how worried you must feel. As a woman, a mom, a grandmother, and a practitioner, I understand what you're going through. And that's exactly why in this video, I'm going to answer all of these common questions and help you to know what you can do to protect yourself, and your baby. We're here to help!

Today I'm looking forward to introducing you to Dr. Susan Fox. She's a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine, and she's the creator of the "Your Fertile Health Program" as well as the "Best Prep for Pregnancy - Naturally or through IVF or Egg Freezing" Online Summit. So many people out there are struggling with fertility and going through the IVF process with all the stresses that come with it. They're needing help and guidance, but might not know where to turn or what their options are. I think it's wonderful that Dr. Susan is offering fertility support from a Chinese medicine perspective. In my practice I also help many couples to conceive naturally and/or through IVF, and to prevent a miscarriage, with a naturopathic approach. It is so rewarding to help people to create the family of their dreams. As with most health concerns, including preparation for pregnancy and prevention of pregnancy loss, it is when we use strategies from all systems of medicine that we can achieve improved results. It's not about choosing one approach or another. Natural approaches can be combined with allopathic approaches to improve fertility outcomes. Learn more about the role of Chinese medicine and acupuncture in this episode, and about the Best Prep for Pregnancy Summit, with Dr. Susan Fox.
