Lee Christoffels was ordained in the Christian Reformed Church in 1970. He has been preaching ever since — in Worthington, Minnesota, where his congregation has held services in four languages and watched the community around it change week by week; in Edgerton, where he now serves part-time in retirement; and in pulpits across the region whenever someone needs a preacher on a Sunday morning. Fifty-two years in, he still loves it. This episode is a conversation with a man who has seen everything the CRC has been through since the 1970s and has something clear to say about what holds. Lee traces the drift that has shaped the denomination's current crisis back to a single question: what is Scripture, and does it have final authority? That question surfaced seriously in the 70s, when debates over biblical infallibility began to fracture the clarity the CRC had inherited. From there, Lee argues, the line runs directly through the battles over women in office in the 90s to the tensions surrounding Synod 2022. The problems were never sudden. They were the slow consequence of decisions made decades earlier, each one loosening the anchor a little further. The conversation turns on one of the most misused phrases in contemporary church life: semper reformanda — always reforming. Lee insists the historic qualifier was never optional. Always reforming according to the word of God. Reformation is not evolution. It is not the church adjusting to its cultural moment. It is the church being called back — daily, personally, institutionally — to what Scripture actually says and what the church of the ages has always confessed. As Jason points out, the original Reformers did not see themselves as innovators. They quoted Augustine and Irenaeus and said: we are standing where the church has always stood. It was Rome that moved. That same logic applies now. The episode ends where every episode ends: this is Christ's church and he bought it with his blood. Wolves will come. Keep a close watch on your life and on your doctrine. Preach the word in season and out of season. Lee Christoffels has been doing exactly that for 52 years. It is worth hearing from someone who has stayed the course that long.

We are very sad today as we re-broadcast this conversation with Reggie Edgerton. You may have heard that Reggie has died. We've lost a brilliant mind, and a long-standing research scientist who was focused on spinal cord injury. Reggie was a frequent presenter at our Symposia and a generous teacher and mentor to those in and outside the academy. We wanted to rebroadcast this episode as a remembrance of him but also because Jason and I were so impressed in this interview with Dr. Edgerton's relentless curiosity, despite his pedigree and experience. That he was still, all these years later, trying to puzzle over how to improve plasticity after a spinal cord injury using neuromodulation and rehab. It was always a pleasure talking to Reggie. We are very sad that he is gone. I hope you listen to the interview and enjoy just how influential he was to the field of SCI research. Thank you, Reggie! Thank you for all the years of sharing your relentless curiosity with us. It's much appreciated.
00:00 I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. 00:27 spacious skies for amber waves of 00:37 For purple mountain majesties. 00:59 share his grace on thee. 01:12 from sea to shining sea. America is back. Yes, sir. And we are back. Well, today, um the uh Speaker of the House in South Carolina, probably the most powerful man in government here in South Carolina, he made a little video. 01:39 that he put out talking about all of the wins that they had yesterday in the House. have this overwhelming vote in support of the budget. Also after the budget, we did income tax. We concurred with the Senate amendments. So that means income tax is going to get accomplished in South Carolina. It's on the way to the desk of government master and hopefully going to have government master sign that in very near future. 02:03 So we're going to see immediate relief. We're going to untether ourselves. Hey, let me go back. That wasn't exactly the beginning. Here's the beginning. Hey, everyone. It's 9.30 on Tuesday. We just wrapped up our second day of the budget debate. It's been a historic day for us here in South Carolina. What's happened today is we adopted a budget, which is a strong budget that protects taxpayers and protects the 02:27 Teachers and core functions of government is something that we're very proud of. want to give a shout out to the Ways and Means Committee. Huh. A shout out to the Ways and Means Committee. 02:39 Gilda Cobb Hunter was appointed, she's a Democrat, appointed by that fellow, Merle Smith, to the Ways and Means Committee. want you to listen to what Gilda Cobb Hunter said about Moms for Liberty. T-A or some, Moms for Liberty, please. They are a terrorist group. Moms for Liberty, that is, that's who Merle Smith. 03:06 That's who Murrell Smith, the same woman that called Charlie Kirk a racist, that's who Murrell Smith appointed as the first vice chair of the Ways and Means Committee. Now, was everything that he was saying actually even possible? Because remember, a lot of these people that voted for this, they didn't even read the bill. Representative Mike Kukaski was talking with Representative Serita Edgerton when he said this. 03:36 ah you will find that there is no provision requiring you to actually read anything. And I think that after this short couple weeks you've been with us, you'll find that too often nobody reads anything. Nobody reads anything. Let's talk with Sarita Edgerton right now. Representative Edgerton, welcome to the program. Hope you're doing well. Hey Charlie, I just wanted to say I started out my morning with some terrorists at the Moms for Everybody press conference. 04:03 Oh, exactly right. right. Unbelievable. And she's first vice chair. So what Merle Smith was... She had a subcommittee, not a whole committee. Yeah, the subcommittee. But she was appointed by Merle Smith. But the question is here, he's talking about all of these great things in the budget. What he's leaving out is this is the largest budget in South Carolina history, right? That's correct. Increased by 2.1 or 2.2 billion dollars of the B9M. Yeah. 04:34 So that's a lot of money. Now, how can you give tax breaks and increase the budget at the same time? um You asked a very good question, Charlie. I don't see where you can. I just don't know that it's financially and fiscally responsible to do so, um but self-sufficiency will try it again. Yeah, absolutely. So we are hearing that this tax plan that they have 05:00 is actually going to increase taxes on about 20 % of South Carolinians? So, yes, and forgive me, my numbers aren't exactly correct, but it's about 22.6 % will see an increase. Approximately 42 point something percent will see no change at all, which is good for them. Right. And about, I guess, 30 something that's left or yeah, something that's left, ...
In this deeply personal and powerful episode of Machine Shop Mastery, Paul sits down with Dave Hataj, third-generation leader of Edgerton Gear in Wisconsin. What begins as a conversation about a custom gear job shop quickly unfolds into something much larger — a story about culture change, humility, sabotage, burnout, mentorship, and the responsibility manufacturers carry in shaping the next generation. When Dave returned to his family's shop in the early 1990s, he walked into a deeply dysfunctional environment. Alcohol flowed freely in the lunchroom. Leadership was fragmented. Trust was thin. When he began making changes, the resistance was immediate and intense — including internal sabotage from senior employees and the loss of key team members. What followed was years of long hours, strained relationships, and hard-earned lessons about leadership and character. Instead of doubling down on control, Dave made a different choice. He committed to building a culture centered on humility, trust, mentorship, and service. Over time, that commitment reshaped not only Edgerton Gear but also his vision for workforce development. Out of that journey came Craftsman with Character — a program that connects high school students with real manufacturers while intentionally developing virtues like responsibility, purpose, teachability, and excellence. What started as a local experiment in one Wisconsin community has expanded across multiple states and reached hundreds of students. This episode explores how character-driven leadership can create both cultural transformation and business growth — and why manufacturing may be one of the most powerful vehicles we have to restore dignity, purpose, and opportunity in our communities.

In this episode of The Break–Down, Deputy Editor John Merrick is joined by historian and author David Edgerton to discuss how his historical work has shaped his understanding of the climate crisis, the rise of China as both a major emitter and a green tech powerhouse, the retro revivalism of the British right, and the ubiquity of AI boosterism.The history of the climate crisis is often told as a story about technology. Growing out of the dark satanic mills of the Industrial Revolution and accelerating with new forms of production and consumption in the mid-twentieth century, we are frequently told that it is technological development and innovation that got us into this mess.But technology is also presented as the way out: a new green industrial revolution, expanded nuclear power, or even forms of geoengineering are held up as solutions.In this conversation, Edgerton asks whether a more nuanced history of technology and production might tell us something different about the politics of the climate crisis. And whether it might help us imagine paths beyond fossil-fuelled capitalism altogether.
H2-Seg2-TCJS- Tues1/13/26- Interview with Sc Rep Sarita Edgerton about Bill 3310 00:00 All right, let's go to the WRD talk line. We've got Mark in Pickens. I want to go to him. He's got a response to Drew McKissick. If I can push that button. There you go, Mark. Welcome. Hello, Charlie. Hello, Mark. Can you hear me? I can. Yes, sir. What's on your mind? OK, I'm sorry. I want to ask you a question. Now, if you were a, let's say a seasoned lawyer that run for office, which most of the politicians in Colombia are. Yeah. 00:29 Would you say that you weren't aware when he said that maybe they didn't know that these primaries were causing the things that they're causing? They know. How in the world? They know. Exactly. know. Anybody that's been there for any length of time, they know. They know about that. Exactly right. So yeah. to say that, and he's the head of GOP in South Carolina or the bring home of the GOP? 00:56 You would have to have just fallen off the turnip truck and landed in the South Carolina State Legislature to not know that closing the primaries would be beneficial. You're exactly right about that, Mark. Let's go to Serita, Representative Serita Edgerton. Serita, welcome to the program. So Drew was talking about House Bill 3643, but there's another bill out there that might be a little stronger. Yes, sir. 3643, while it does move the ball to the next 01:26 first down line to use a football analogy. This one actually kicks it into throws it into the end zone for a touchdown. Um, so I call it a jar primaries 36 43. It just keeps the door open a little bit. Um, but 33 10 actually closes the primaries, um, and, and keep make sure that the independence just can't go and you can register as an independent and vote wherever you want to. 01:55 It really nails down what you have to do as an independent if you want to vote in a primary. Now that's going to get a lot of pushback from the ACLU, but that's going to happen anyway, so we don't need to worry about that. How does 3310 actually address the quote unquote unaffiliated voter? 02:15 Well, I have to get that for sure. I think they have to register. If they're independent, they can't vote in either of the Republican or Democrat primary. They can vote in the November election, but they cannot vote in a primary. OK, now the way I think the bill reads is you can vote if you're an independent, you can vote in the Democrat primary if the Democrat primary allows independent voters to vote in it. That's correct. I believe that's right. Yeah. Or if the Republican primary 02:45 If the Republican Party decided to allow independent voters to vote in that primary, they would also be able to do that. So it does close it up just a little bit. And like Drew was telling us, I'm sorry, go ahead. No, no, go ahead. Drew was telling us what? That, and you mentioned this as well in a text, that this hearing has actually been moved. Any idea why? The reason given from the House floor by Chairman Jordan was that they had received such 03:14 feedback on it that they needed to go back and relook at some of the bills that were in there and take a little bit more time to think about them. So your calls are working people your calls are where I was about to say I'm going to take that as a good thing. do and another thing that has 3643 which is a little concerning is the 2 out of 3 voting in 2 out 3 South Carolina primary right. That could cut off. 03:43 people in the military who moved to our state and have voted in a Republican primary elsewhere. ah they wanted to run for office and they're an upstanding citizen, but they've only voted in one out of, only voted in the last one. So ah maybe, you know, that would cut some of those veterans out from running for office until they have to be in the state for so many years to vote in uh so many primaries in a row. 04:12 Yeah, I heard and I don't know who filed it. It was just kind of in passing that somebody was looking at a bill ...

Bill sits down with award-buzzed actor Joel Edgerton for a sharp, funny, and moving conversation that jumps from Hollywood absurdities to deeply personal truths. They dig into Edgerton's career-defining performance in Train Dreams, and why stories about ordinary people, loss, and resilience can hit harder than any superhero spectacle. Edgerton opens up about early struggles and the love that carried him through, while Maher shares a bizarre first “job” as an unqualified bodyguard for a South African diplomat's kids. Along the way, they talk about how Australian actors seem to be quietly running Hollywood—and that most American accents these days were probably learned in Sydney watching Leave It to Beaver.

Do you ever look in the mirror and immediately forget what you saw? James suggests that many Christians do the exact same thing with the Word of God.In this week's episode from First Reformed Church in Edgerton, MN, we dive into the second half of James chapter 1. We discuss why our anger doesn't produce the righteousness of God, how the "noise" of our own hearts can drown out the Gospel, and why the most blessed life is one of active obedience rather than mere intellectual assent. Listen in as we explore how to move from being a casual hearer to a faithful doer of the Word.
At a special Little Gold Men live event at the Regent Santa Monica Beach, the Australian actor revealed that he had tried to get the rights to Denis Johnson's book four years earlier. But, he tells John and Rebecca, the wait was worth it to make Clint Bentley's version of the story, which explores fatherhood. "Robert, for me, felt like some version of myself and that felt like a worthwhile thing to do at that time in my life," says Edgerton, who also spoke about how directors like Baz Luhrmann have influenced him and what he thinks about the current state of the industry, including the possible Warner-Netflix merger.

"Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of many kinds." How is this possible? In this week's sermon from First Reformed Church in Edgerton, MN, we look at the internal work of the Holy Spirit during times of pressure. Using the biological reality of "stress wood," we learn how God uses the very things we want to escape to make us "perfect and complete, lacking in nothing".Key takeaway: Your trial is not a sign of God's absence, but a tool of His grace to anchor you in Christ.

Historiansplaining: A historian tells you why everything you know is wrong
Excerpt of a lecture for patrons only for 1 year: We explore the tumultuous history of Central Africa, embracing the enormous Congo rainforest, the great rift valleys, the Indian Ocean coast, and the gold fields of the Zambezi basin, as formidable kingdoms—Kongo, the Swahili cities, and the mysterious Great Zimbabwe—emerged in the tropical landscape, adapted to the traumatic incursion of the Portuguese, and eventually struck back against European power, through diplomatic schemes, military struggles, and religious awakenings. This same region of the world produced some of the most remarkable and towering figures in African or world history, such as King Afonso I and Queen Nzingha, as well as many of the first captives to be taken to the New World, including the “twenty-and-odd negroes” that were famously landed at Point Comfort, Virginia, in 1619.

We're celebrating the 50th anniversary of Jaws by looking back at Spielberg's genre-defining original and its progressively wilder sequels. A quartet of films that not only redefined summer horror but also played a pivotal role in shaping contemporary fears of the ocean, the Jaws franchise embraced genre hybridity, influenced public perception of sharks, and contributed to the rise of the summer blockbuster. But are there other reasons that explain the original film's enduring cultural relevance? We're diving in today with spoilers, so stay tuned!ReferencesCaputi, Jane E. "Jaws as Patriarchal Myth."

Each day, more than 10,000 Baby Boomers in America turn 65…and it's been happening for years. By 2034, there will be more Americans over the age of 65 than under the age of 18. It's unprecedented. How those Baby Boomers continue to participate in society will be an overwhelming factor in what kind of country and world younger generations inherit. An aging population is not just an American phenomenon. It's happening in many developed countries. Aging is one of the trends that will have an outsized influence over the next 20 years. Artificial intelligence is another. The AI we experience in 2025 is juvenile compared to the magical technology that will be embedded in just about every part of our work and personal lives a decade or more from now. In this interview, Matthew Edgerton describes how he and his team at Cogensus are using artificial intelligence to help seniors alleviate loneliness, extend community, empower care, and preserve legacy. In addition to discussing how seniors and their loved ones benefit from using an AI bot to actively journal their daily thoughts and feelings, Matthew shares how these insights can assist in providing better health outcomes for the seniors who use this platform. Matthew goes on to talk about his vision for the final decade of an aging adult's life, his vision for the future of aging, other innovative ways AI is being used to help older adults flourish, and advice for people who have anxiety about the advancements in the field of artificial intelligence.Matthew Edgerton is the Founder & CEO of Cogensus; a technology company focused on improving mental health in the elderly and providing enhanced cognitive insights for providers. Matthew is a polymath and recognized thought leader in the areas of Innovation, Technology, and Media. His experience spans a variety of disciplines including: GTM strategy, AI, Product Development, and Entrepreneurship. In 2022, he was published by the United Nations under the ITU. His globally recognized technology emissions frameworks and rating system offer a more unified approach to measuring and categorizing business impact on climate.
You just heard from Jimmy Edgerton about a crucial time in his entrepreneurship career, a moment when it seemed like his new startup was going down in roasted chickpea flames. Luckily, these hard times didn't last forever, since today I'm presenting a special episode, a podcast swap with seasoned entrepreneurs and business consultants Jimmy Edgerton and Julie Meyer from AugMentors. Before they taught us to navigate the nuances of networking, Jimmy and Julie learned these lessons firsthand through running their own successful businesses. Julie found her start in writing her book Eat Well Shanghai and now works as the co-ceo of nutrition company Eat Well Global. Meanwhile, Jimmy worked in real estate until a fateful beer garden meeting launched his business career running Watusee Foods. But before we get ahead of ourselves, let's hop in a time machine to the start of Julie's story and see how these lives intersected. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Investigative journalist, Katie Kaplan, from the Two Sleuths Podcast and I discuss the unsolved murder of Stephon Edgerton, who is also known as DJ Juan Gotti.
This week, in Edgerton, Kansas, a wild family dynamic leads to fighting, insults, bad feelings, and eventually a dastardly murder plot, from the person you'd least expect. As cruel & brutal as it was, it was almost the perfect crime, but when the body is stumbled upon, the whole web of lies comes crumbling down, turning a mother against her son, and a daughter against her mother. The whole thing is just a huge mess, and as crazy a story you'll ever find!!Along the way, we find out that everybody has a "Frontier Days" festival, that when your mother tells you that someone has to die, you don't have much choice, and that love & a refusal to accept reality can apparently conquer all, including the murder of your son!!Hosted by James Pietragallo and Jimmie WhismanNew episodes every Thursday!Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com and use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.comGo to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports!Follow us on...twitter.com/@murdersmallfacebook.com/smalltownpodinstagram.com/smalltownmurderAlso, check out James & Jimmie's other show, Crime In Sports!
