This episode is the first Noriko's Philosophy Playground of 2026 and explores The Tower of Babel painted by Pieter Bruegel the Elder.Noriko reflects on seeing the large version of The Tower of Babel in Vienna at the Kunsthistorisches Museum. Inspired by the painting, she discusses human ambition, limits, and the role of language.The biblical story tells of people who once shared a single language and tried to build a tower reaching the heavens. Their excessive ambition led to confusion of language, loss of cooperation, and the collapse of the project.Bruegel's painting shows countless workers focused only on their own tasks, without seeing the whole structure. Parts of the tower are already collapsing, symbolising miscommunication and lack of coordination.Noriko connects this to modern life and language learning, asking three philosophical questions:How important is it to see the big picture?How much ambition is healthy for humans?What does it really mean for language to “connect” people?She concludes that true communication is not just grammar or vocabulary, but the attitude of trying to understand others. Language learning, she suggests, is ultimately about understanding people and the world through words.フィロソフィー（philosophy）プレイグラウンド（playground）プロジェクト（project）コミュニケーション（communication）インターネット（internet）バージョン（version）ディーテール（detail）ビジョン（vision）アプローチ（approach）コーディネーション（coordination）野心（やしん） – ambition限界（げんかい） – limit言語（げんご） – language言葉（ことば） – words混乱（こんらん） – confusion協力（きょうりょく） – cooperation理解（りかい） – understanding全体像（ぜんたいぞう） – big picture誤解（ごかい） – misunderstanding傲慢（ごうまん） – arrogance本質（ほんしつ） – essence理想化（りそうか） – idealization労働者（ろうどうしゃ） – workers崩れる（くずれる） – to collapse態度・姿勢（たいど・しせい） – attitude / mindset

Everitt and Ashworth review primary sources shaping Nero's legacy, distinguishing gossip-laden Suetonius from hostile but reliable Tacitus, while noting Petronius of the Satyricon and Pliny the Elder's anecdotal encyclopedia.NERO

The Evergetinos does not offer us inspiring stories. It offers us a blade. These elders do not behave reasonably. They do not protect their reputations. They do not appeal to due process. They do not defend themselves. They kneel. They ask forgiveness for crimes they did not commit. They accept punishment. They allow their names to be dragged through the dust. And this is exactly where modern religious people begin to choke. We admire Christ until His way threatens our dignity. We praise the Cross until it begins to cost us something that feels personal. We speak of humility until it asks us to surrender our right to be seen as innocent. Then the mind rises up. The lawyer wakes. Natural reason sharpens its pen. We start dissecting the text. Surely this is symbolic. Surely this is exaggerated. Surely there must be limits. But the Gospel has no interest in preserving your image. The divine ethos revealed in Christ is not reasonable. It is cruciform. Look at the Elder who accepts blame for theft. He knows he did not steal. He also knows something far more dangerous. He knows that Christ Himself was accused, beaten and condemned while innocent. So he chooses to stand where Christ stands rather than where the ego demands to stand. He does not argue. He does not clarify. He does not try to control the narrative. He bows. He becomes small. He lets truth be carried by God rather than by his own voice. This is not weakness. It is terrifying strength. In the second account the Deacon accepts public disgrace, penance and exclusion from communion for a crime planted in his cell by envy. He allows his spiritual father and the entire community to think him a thief. Why. Because love of God is worth more than the right to be seen as virtuous. And because hatred of slanderers is more deadly than slander itself. Notice what breaks the demonic power. Not investigation. Not confession extracted by pressure. But the prayer of the one who was falsely accused. Only the slandered man can heal the slanderer. This is the law of the Cross. Wounds heal wounds when they are offered in love. The story of Abba Nikon goes even further. He is beaten, excommunicated and isolated for three years for a crime he did not commit. He stands outside the church every Sunday begging for prayer like a criminal. When his innocence is finally revealed, he does not remain to receive praise. He leaves. He knows that glory is as dangerous as slander. Both feed the ego. Both can poison the soul. This is what divine discernment looks like. Not clever arguments but crucified love. Abba Isaiah gives the rule that offends every modern religious instinct. If you are slandered make a prostration and say forgive me even if you do not know what you did. This is not moral confusion. It is spiritual clarity. It is a refusal to let the heart harden. It is the choice to stand with Christ rather than with self justification. St Maximos explains why this cuts so deeply. The demons cannot always trap us through money or pleasure. So they use slander. They try to provoke hatred. They want you to burn with indignation. They want you to lose love. They want you to step off the Cross and into self defense. To endure slander without hatred is one of the highest ascetical acts. It requires that you look to God alone for vindication. St Ephraim then gives the final warning. Even when the truth comes out do not become proud. Do not feast on your vindication. God delivered you. You did not save yourself. This is why we want to soften these stories. They leave no room for spiritual narcissism. They strip away our moral theater. They expose how deeply attached we are to being right, to being respected, to being seen as good. The Cross does not negotiate with your ego. It kills it. Slander reveals what we truly love. If we love Christ we will accept being misunderstood. If we love ourselves we will fight to be cleared. The Evergetinos does not ask whether this is fair. It asks whether you want to belong to the Crucified. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:01:41 Fr. Charbel Abernethy: Page 349 number 2 00:03:19 Fr.

The Inner Grammar of the Eastern Christian Life How the Church actually heals the human person This would be a 10 to 12 week arc that shows how Eastern Christianity is not merely a set of beliefs or practices but a therapeutic and mystical way of being human.

Not as an escape from the world but as a way of becoming inwardly still within it. Here we explore the ancient wisdom of the desert fathers and the lived experience of the Church as a way of healing the heart and learning how to dwell with God in hiddenness.

Healthcare innovator Neal Shah joins me to unpack how artificial intelligence is being used against patients—and how it can be used to fight back.Most conversations about AI in healthcare focus on efficiency, cost savings, or shiny tools. This episode goes deeper. Neal Shah and I examine how insurers have quietly weaponized AI to deny care at scale—and why patients are losing not because they're wrong, but because the system is asymmetrically stacked against them.Neal shares how caregiving for his grandfather with dementia and his wife through years of cancer exposed the realities of denial letters, administrative friction, and time-based exhaustion. We explore how claim denials jumped from 1.2% to nearly 20% nationwide, why most patients never appeal, and how insurers exploit the fact that appeals take hours while denials take seconds.From there, we dig into how AI—trained on successful appeals, billing codes, medical research, and insurer coverage policies—can flip that imbalance. Not by gaming the system, but by restoring access to evidence, speed, and leverage for people who don't have legal teams or financial backstops.The conversation widens into elder care, end-of-life costs, administrative bloat, and why healthcare outcomes don't justify 20% of U.S. GDP. This isn't an anti-technology episode. It's a clear-eyed look at incentives, power, and how tools can either centralize control—or return it to individuals.The lesson isn't blind optimism about AI. It's discernment: knowing where technology helps, where regulation lags, and how ordinary people can protect themselves inside systems that weren't designed for fairness.TL;DR* Insurers now programmatically deny ~20% of claims—up from 1.2% fifteen years ago* 99% of denied patients never appeal, despite high reversal rates* Of those who appeal, ~40% win; with AI support, success jumps to ~73%* Most denials stem from billing errors or weak documentation—not medical necessity* State insurance regulators provide external review boards most patients don't know exist* AI can restore speed and evidence access—but doesn't fix broken incentives alone* Healthcare costs are driven by administrative bloat, not clinical care* Elder care is optimized for real estate returns, not human outcomes* The real crisis isn't technology—it's confusion, exhaustion, and lack of agencyMemorable Lines* “A denial letter is the shadow of a gun.”* “Insurers deny care in seconds—patients are expected to respond in hours.”* “Most people lose not because they're wrong, but because they're tired.”* “AI didn't break healthcare—it just exposed where power already lived.”* “Care is relational, but the system is designed to prevent relationships.”GuestNeal Shah — Healthcare innovator, author, and caregiver advocateFounder of Counterforce Health and Carriya, focused on patient empowerment, insurance accountability, and improving elder care through technology and workforce redesign.

In this Guts Church teaching, Elder Chris Hart talks about how Galatians 5 reminds us that Christ has already set us free—and the call now is to stay free. In this message, Guts Church walks through the contrast between grace and law, freedom and bondage, flesh and Spirit. The Apostle Paul's words reveal how what we feed determines what we produce, and how love is the ultimate proof of faith working through grace.This teaching breaks down the fruit of the Spirit, exposes subtle distractions that pull believers back into old mindsets, and challenges the church to live led by the Holy Spirit instead of human effort. As the Daniel Fast concludes and the church prepares for a powerful Healed Service, this message calls believers to walk in freedom, maturity, and Spirit-led love.

In this Mobile Metron episode, Bishop Jim Swilley tells the raw, unfiltered story behind his mother's fall, the impossible decisions of elder care, and the unexpected “angels” who showed up right on time. Then he pivots into a provocative teaching on Chronos vs. Kairos, why guilt keeps us trapped, and why Jesus' words to Peter in John 21 sound a lot like modern caregiving. Along the way, he challenges fundamentalism, reframes “the fall,” and asks the question most of us avoid until life forces it: Are you trying to live longer… or live freer? 5 takeaways Chronos measures life. Kairos interprets it.Chronos is the clock/calendar; Kairos is the “time-out-of-time” moment where meaning snaps into focus (anchored by “my times are in your hands” — Psalm 31:15). Elder care isn't a “curse” — it's a season.Swilley reads Jesus' words about aging and dependence (John 21:18) as less “doom” and more “this is what long life often looks like.” Guilt isn't proof you're loving. It can be a leash.A care team's permission—“you don't have to come every day”—becomes a spiritual release: love can be real without self-punishment. Be specific about the life you're asking for.Not just “more years,” but “more years with clarity, mobility, and peace,” reflecting on the idea of long lifespan (Swilley references 120 years; see Genesis 6:3) and the cost of unmanaged longevity. Your life becomes lighter when it becomes useful.The old hymn idea—“If I can help somebody, my living shall not be in vain”—turns into an inventory of legacy: what you built, who you lifted, what your presence changed (echoing the wisdom of “teach us to number our days” — Psalm 90:12). Pull-quote (from the episode) “Focus on the kairos time of your life. Don't be so obsessed with the chronos time.” Scriptures referenced (with citations) “The kingdom… brings out… treasures new and old” — Matthew 13:52 “The Spirit of the Lord… liberty to the captives” — Isaiah 61:1 (also echoed in Luke 4:18) “The tongue of the learned” — Isaiah 50:4 “Let there be light” — Genesis 1:3 “My times are in Your hands” — Psalm 31:15 “Rightly dividing the word” — 2 Timothy 2:15 “The heavens declare the glory of God” — Psalm 19:1 “Man shall not live by bread alone…” — Deuteronomy 8:3 (quoted in Matthew 4:4) “I AM” — Exodus 3:14 “I desire mercy, not sacrifice” — Hosea 6:6 (quoted in Matthew 9:13 and Matthew 12:7) Curses / sweat of brow / labor pains — Genesis 3:16–19 Jesus & Peter on love, feeding sheep, aging, and “what is that to you?” — John 21:15–22 “Teach us to number our days” — Psalm 90:12 “120 years” — Genesis 6:3 “Blessed when you come in and go out” — Deuteronomy 28:6 “No plague… near your dwelling” — Psalm 91:10

Elder Bruce C. Hafen and his wife, Marie, spoke to BYU-Idaho students about the importance of sacrifice. Elder Hafen shared a story about his lifelong friend, President Jeffery R. Holland, when he was at a crossroads when deciding if he should serve a mission or not. This sacrifice would go on to forever impact his life. Elder Hafen said the Lord requires sacrifices to help His disciples grow into who He expects them to be.

James Leudeke - The Qualifications of an Elder by Northwest Church of Christ

Rabbi Jim has been a Jewish believer in Yeshua (Jesus) since 1977. He has served Congregation Shema Yisrael as Elder, Home Group Leader, Prayer Leader, Outreach Coordinator, Youth Group Leader, Special Events Coordinator and Head Usher. Rabbi Jim has been the full time Messianic Rabbi of Shema Yisrael since 1996.Prior to entering full time ministry Rabbi Jim worked for Xerox Corporation in Webster, NY for 24 years as an Optical Engineer and Engineering Manager. He holds more than 45 patents in the areas of copier imaging systems and laser printing. Rabbi Jim received a Bachelor's degree in Optical Engineering from the University of Rochester in 1967 and a Master's degree in Physics from the University of Southern California in 1970. He is ordained by the IAMCS (International Alliance of Messianic Congregations and Synagogues). Jim and his wife Diane live in Brighton and they have two grown children.Rabbi Jim's parents were atheists who taught him that God did not exist, and that organized religion deceived and oppressed people. He began his search for spiritual reality when he left his parents' home to go to college in 1963. His search took him into the world of mind-altering drugs and Yoga meditation. It ended with a dramatic encounter with the Messiah who revealed Himself to Jim in the privacy of his bedroom without the assistance of any other person.Rabbi Jim has published four books on deep spiritual meaning of the Moadim, or Jewish Holidays, which can be purchased online at www.figtreegiftbooks.com. They are Yom Teruah (The Day of Sounding the Shofar), Yom Kippor (The Day of Atonement), Pesakh (Passover) and Firstfruits/Resurrection Day Rabbi Jim has also been involved in several community efforts.

“Carthage must be destroyed” – and with these words Cato the Elder doomed his North African rival by helping spark the Third Punic War, the last in a century of conflicts between Rome and Carthage. Deprived of its military in the aftermath of Zama and harassed by the Numidian king Massinissa, Carthage nevertheless managed to bounce back as an economic powerhouse during the first half of the second century B.C. Yet this recovery made the Senate suspicious of their Punic neighbor, which rapidly escalated into a war of annihilation as the Romans were determined to secure their position as sole master of the Mediterranean.

We talk about why mystery is not the same as thrillers, how “millennial cozies” are changing the genre, and why her books are the perfect gateway for romance readers who want puzzles, banter, and emotional payoff—without nightmare fuel.We also dig into why Jenny chose to write standalone companion novels instead of a single sleuth series, the rise of cozy mysteries set in big cities, and the nonfiction rabbit holes (poison! art theft!) that inspire her storytelling.

In Part 2 of our series on mindfully engaging with the news, Rabbi Josh Feigelson explores why the news so often sends us into emotional spirals—and how we can respond with more awareness and compassion. Drawing on the Buddhist teaching of the “second arrow,” Jewish wisdom about hesech hada'at, and a classic Talmudic story about Hillel the Elder, this episode offers a practical mindfulness practice to help us meet difficult news without adding unnecessary suffering.

The Roman towns of Pompeii and Herculaneum were wiped off the map within 24 hours of Vesuvius erupting, buried under volcanic debris that would entomb them for centuries. In this second episode of our four-part series, Kev Lochun is joined by historian Dr Jess Venner to explore the cataclysm with the help of the experiences of two men: Roman statesman Pliny the Elder, who sailed into danger never to return, and his nephew Pliny the Younger, whose letters provide the only known eyewitness account of the disaster.   ––––– GO BEYOND THE PODCAST Want to know more about the story of Pompeii?

Faun discusses a transformative experience under an elder tree at a crossroads, experiencing The Hat Man as a teenager and a childhood memory of a transparent young girl . Faun came on pilgrimage to Britain and met some of us at the MFSP patreon community meet up in Glastonbury. They had many synchronicities and profound experiences during their journey: an archetypal-looking pilgrim who kept appearing and a person whom appeared to be channelling Dionysus on Glastonbury Tor. In the BONUS EXCLUSIVE FULL-LENGTH VIDEO VERSION on Patreon we hear about the powerful qualities of Elder and Faun shares a further experience with Orbs and a malevolent manifestation which took place in her mothers bedroom.
