Send us a textA document from Joel Webbon's own elders has surfaced—outlining concerns of pastoral disqualification, including sexual misconduct, arrogance, dishonesty, and failure to remain above reproach. While the internet has been quick to sensationalize and focus on one part of the document, this video aims to do something different: offer a biblically grounded, reflection on the entirety of the report and the pattern of character we've seen from Webbon for over a decade. This isn't about piling on—it's about telling the truth with integrity and soberness. The church deserves leaders who reflect Christ—and accountability when they don't.Here's the article about the document with a link to the full document as well: https://x.com/elimcgowan/status/1903177210988777872Support the showSupport the Show! https://www.patreon.com/sparenoarrowsCheck out the video Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@sparenoarrowsConnect with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/spare_no_arrows/Spare no Arrows on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/6CqhvtMWRItkoiv8ZrJ6zVSpare no Arrows on Apple Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/spare-no-arrows/id1528869516

Sunday April 13, 2025 at the Hub City Church Do You Know the Real King Jesus | Luke 19:28-40 // Acts 9:20-31 Palm Sunday 2025 Sermon by Tadd Anderson | Lead Teaching Pastor Sermon Notes: Palm Sunday is not just a day of CELEBRATION — it's a day of EXAMINATION that begs the question: Do we REALLY KNOW the King we CLAIM to follow? 1. Many people PRAISE Jesus as ‘KING' under the FALSE ASSUMPTION that He has come to give them the EARTHLY LIFE they've always WANTED. Mark 10:17,22 // John 6:60,66 // Matthew 11:2-3 // Luke 24:21 2. Following the REAL King JESUS often leads to DIFFICULTY, not COMFORT — because the world OPPOSES the message of His ETERNAL Kingdom. John 15:18-19 // John 16:33 3. King Jesus is WORTH losing EVERYTHING for because He has given us the most VALUABLE thing of all — HIMSELF. Philippians 3:7-10 // Matthew 13:44 “God always gives us what we would have asked for if we had known everything He knows.” — Tim Keller The Hub City Church is a local expression of the church in Crestview, Florida, making disciples Who Believe the Gospel, Abide in Christ and Obey the Word to the glory of God.

Episode Overview:Welcome back to Ryan and Brian's Bible Bistro, where hosts Ryan and Brian dive into the Bible, theology, and all things pertaining to the Christian faith. Recorded during Holy Week, this episode explores the story of Malchus, the servant of the high priest, and discusses encouraging trends in Christian faith globally. From historical insights to modern revivals, Ryan and Brian cover it all with their signature wit and wisdom.Timestamps & Topics:[00:00 - 03:30] Introduction and BanterRyan and Brian kick off with playful banter about Brian's “conversion” to the word “pertaining.”Setting the scene: It's Holy Week, recorded the day after Palm Sunday, with Easter approaching.[03:30 - 06:00] Holy Week ContextBrian shares his busy schedule as a pastor, preparing for a unique Maundy Thursday service and Easter celebrations.The episode will cover two main topics: a biblical reflection for Holy Week and a discussion on current trends in Christianity.[06:00 - 28:00] The Story of MalchusFocus on Malchus, the servant of the high priest, whose ear is cut off during Jesus' arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane.Examination of the account across all four Gospels:Mark 14:47: An unnamed person cuts off the servant's ear; Jesus rebukes the action (Mark 14:48).Matthew 26:50-51: Similar account, with Jesus saying, “All who draw the sword will die by the sword” (Matthew 26:52).Luke 22:49-51: Adds that Jesus heals the servant's ear, still unnamed.John 18:10-11: Names the servant as Malchus and the disciple as Simon Peter; Jesus commands Peter to put away his sword.Discussion on why details differ:Traditional view: Later Gospels add details for verisimilitude.N.T. Wright's perspective: Gospel writers interacted, emphasizing different aspects.Scholarly insights from Richard Bauckham's book (Jesus and the Eyewitnesses):Anonymity in earlier Gospels (Mark, Matthew, Luke) may have protected early Christians, like Malchus, from persecution.Naming in John could indicate safety or recognition of Malchus as a believer.Theories suggest Malchus became a Christian after Jesus healed him, supported by early church traditions.Criteria for authenticity:Multiple attestation (all four Gospels include the story).Criterion of embarrassment (Peter's rebuke reflects poorly on him, suggesting authenticity).Connection to Holy Week: Jesus' call to avoid violence and embrace a “cruciform life” of sacrifice.[28:00 - 50:00] Resurgence of Christian FaithThree encouraging studies highlight a revival in Christianity:UK Bible Society Report (The Quiet Revival):Interview with Dr. Rhiannon McAleer, Director of Research.Church attendance in England and Wales has grown, especially among Gen Z.Stats: Young men's attendance up from 4% to 21% (2018–present), young women from 3% to 12%.Quote from Dr. Rob Barward-Simmons: Church offers meaning amidst mental health struggles, loneliness, and loss of purpose.Barna Group Study (US):66% of U.S. adults report a personal commitment to Jesus, up 12% since 2021.Gen Z men show a 15% increase in commitment (2019–2025).David Kinnaman's Faith for Exiles: “This is the clearest trend we've seen in more than a decade pointing to spiritual renewal.”Ryan Burge notes a plateau and slight decline in “nones” (religiously unaffiliated).Voice of the Martyrs Report...

Day 43--The Road of Hope--Ch 34--Examination of Conscience

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop talks with Will Bickford about the future of human intelligence, the exocortex, and the role of software as an extension of our minds. Will shares his thinking on brain-computer interfaces, PHEXT (a plain text protocol for structured data), and how high-dimensional formats could help us reframe the way we collaborate and think. They explore the abstraction layers of code and consciousness, and why Will believes that better tools for thought are not just about productivity, but about expanding the boundaries of what it means to be human. You can connect with Will in Twitter at @wbic16 or check out the links mentioned by Will in Github.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 – Introduction to the concept of the exocortex and how current tools like plain text editors and version control systems serve as early forms of cognitive extension.​05:00 – Discussion on brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), emphasizing non-invasive software interfaces as powerful tools for augmenting human cognition.​10:00 – Introduction to PHEXT, a plain text format designed to embed high-dimensional structure into simple syntax, facilitating interoperability between software systems.​15:00 – Exploration of software abstraction as a means of compressing vast domains of meaning into manageable forms, enhancing understanding rather than adding complexity.​20:00 – Conversation about the enduring power of text as an interface, highlighting its composability, hackability, and alignment with human symbolic processing.​25:00 – Examination of collaborative intelligence and the idea that intelligence emerges from distributed systems involving people, software, and shared ideas.​30:00 – Discussion on the importance of designing better communication protocols, like PHEXT, to create systems that align with human thought processes and enhance cognitive capabilities.​35:00 – Reflection on the broader implications of these technologies for the future of human intelligence and the potential for expanding the boundaries of human cognition.Key InsightsThe exocortex is already here, just not evenly distributed. Will frames the exocortex not as a distant sci-fi future, but as something emerging right now in the form of external software systems that augment our thinking. He suggests that tools like plain text editors, command-line interfaces, and version control systems are early prototypes of this distributed cognitive architecture—ways we already extend our minds beyond the biological brain.Brain-computer interfaces don't need to be invasive to be powerful. Rather than focusing on neural implants, Will emphasizes software interfaces as the true terrain of BCIs. The bridge between brain and computer can be as simple—and profound—as the protocols we use to interact with machines. What matters is not tapping into neurons directly, but creating systems that think with us, where interface becomes cognition.PHEXT is a way to compress meaning while remaining readable. At the heart of Will's work is PHEXT, a plain text format that embeds high-dimensional structure into simple syntax. It's designed to let software interoperate through shared, human-readable representations of structured data—stripping away unnecessary complexity while still allowing for rich expressiveness. It's not just a format, but a philosophy of communication between systems and people.Software abstraction is about compression, not complexity. Will pushes back against the idea that abstraction means obfuscation. Instead, he sees abstraction as a way to compress vast domains of meaning into manageable forms. Good abstractions reveal rather than conceal—they help you see more with less. In this view, the challenge is not just to build new software, but to compress new layers of insight into form.Text is still the most powerful interface we have. Despite decades of graphical interfaces, Will argues that plain text remains the highest-bandwidth cognitive tool. Text allows for versioning, diffing, grepping—it plugs directly into the brain's symbolic machinery. It's composable, hackable, and lends itself naturally to abstraction. Rather than moving away from text, the future might involve making text higher-dimensional and more semantically rich.The future of thinking is collaborative, not just computational. One recurring theme is that intelligence doesn't emerge in isolation—it's distributed. Will sees the exocortex as something inherently social: a space where people, software, and ideas co-think. This means building interfaces not just for solo users, but for networked groups of minds working through shared representations.Designing better protocols is designing better minds. Will's vision is protocol-first. He sees the structure of communication—between apps, between people, between thoughts—as the foundation of intelligence itself. By designing protocols like PHEXT that align with how we actually think, we can build software that doesn't just respond to us, but participates in our thought processes.

By Doug Wendt - This sermon focuses on two vital questions: 1). Is my humility acceptable to God? 2). Does my self-examination lead to change? When we combine the components of examination and humility together, it provides the best outcome for honoring God and following His instructions!

How to understand and deal with anxiety of women?Hey StefanHope all is wellHave you and your daughter been on any adventures?Father daughter memories?What's something you'd like to experience with your family while you're here in this life together ?Are you allowed in New Zealand?!It would be nice to make a series on the Examination of the major European philosophers and philosophic movements of the 17th and 18th centuries. Particular attention paid to the transition out of the medieval period into the Age of Enlightenment.Happy with the bitcoin price?Why does no one talk about what happened to Rhodesia?Do you still support fluoridation given it is now a known neurotoxin?If you still experience pain thinking about a toxic relationship you walked away from, does this mean you haven't processed the morality properly? I'm still thinking about my sister that I don't speak to anymore. My therapist said that it will always be a “pain point.” What are your thoughts? (asking again- apologies if you answered in a previous stream and I missed it.)Dear Stef, I am currently at a bar on a late Saturday night, I just ordered a drink and the bartender said to me after I ordered a beer, ‘Is that all lovely?'. It was strange to hear this but also flattering to hear a young female bartender refer to me as ‘lovely'. It made me believe that this young bartender was probably flirting with me. I don't recall any other bartender using the word lovely towards me. whilst the term ‘lovely' is often used by older women to refer to younger people, this woman was approximately in her early 20's about 10 years younger than me. She looked reasonably attractive, blonde hair, bright blue eyes but she was also a little chubby, so I wouldn't date her to be frank, but my question still stands, if a younger woman says to a man ‘Is that all lovely?'. 1. Would she say that to a man she is not attracted to?2. Would you say it is flirting to use the term ‘Is that all lovely?'. I've been to my local bar for the past 10 years and I never recall hearing a bartender say to me ‘Is that all lovely?'. If you dothink it is flirting, doyou think it is appropriate to ask her out as I'm ordering or should I attempt to find her after work or when she is on her lunch break when there is a bit more privacy away fromother customers?Dear Stef are nightclubs and bars in Canada known as a place where people meet, but the only people who meet there are generally trashy people? I ask because I am currently in a bar trying to find a girlfriend, I am sitting alone because I don't feel the need to bring male friends with me and to be frank I don't have any male friends not that that bothers me because I would just use male friends as wingman to meet women. Anyway I don't live in Canada anyway, I live in the continent of Australia, anyway I'm listening to this terrible hip hop music playing which is strange because there aren't many African people living in Australia, I see people talking and socialising at this bar late on Saturday night and I am just perplexed by the whole experience which I find just almost miserable to be honest. Stef what chance do I have to find a girlfriend at a place like this? it may seem like a strange question but it's not like there are alternative ideal places a man can go to meet women and ask them out? Anyway why is the West infected with this terrible hip hop music especially in Australia where there are virtually no black people, this music really infects my mind to be frank?What do you think about Saylor starting a fund that buys so much BTC?If you've researched it: Is it a good thing or bad thing?Hi Stef, I asked this question the other day? I was wondering if you had an opinion on outsourcing. Large companies sending jobs to third world countries, and paying pennies on the dollar. Its a part of the free market and capitalisms, and wonder if it could be considered predatory, or just supply and demand. The consumer loses out on jobs, but benefits on cheaper goods and services, and the third world although paid a low wage, still benefit from a better job otherwise provided by their society. Thoughts?Also do you have any thoughts on the United Healthcare CEO being murdered. Again, there seems to be a lot of happiness over a man being murdered. People feel that he caused the deaths of many people because the company denied a lot of claims. But is that just the jealousy of the poor, who do not appreciate the value of the insurance company and want free healthcare, or again the free market at work once again?GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

In this episode, William Egginton invites you to ask the question, “What if you’re wrong?” as he explains how being uncertain makes us more human. William explores the surprising overlap between a physicist, a philosopher, and a poet—each of whom came to the same unsettling truth: that we mistake our model of reality for reality itself. But this isn’t just about subatomic particles or dusty old philosophy books. It’s about how certainty—especially in our relationships—can blind us. What if embracing uncertainty is actually the doorway to wisdom, compassion, and a more connected life? Key Takeaways: Exploration of the intersections between philosophy, literature, and quantum physics. Discussion of the nature of reality and the limitations of human knowledge. Examination of biases and their impact on perception and understanding. Importance of interpretation in both science and philosophy. Relational understanding of identity and its formation through interactions. Analysis of free will versus determinism and its philosophical implications. Concept of “degrees of freedom” in understanding human agency. Implications of quantum mechanics on our understanding of reality.

This week's sermon explores the "Dangerous Prayer" of examination, found in Psalm 139:23-24, where we invite God to search our hearts and reveal any offensive ways within us. Just as we might avoid a doctor's visit for fear of what we'll discover, we often hesitate to fully surrender to God's examination. However, this sermon encourages us to trust God's goodness and perfect timing, allowing Him to conduct a "heart audit" to expose and address those areas that hinder our relationship with Him. It's a call to complete surrender and a willingness to confront any inconvenient truths, ultimately leading to freedom and the incomparable fruit of walking in the Spirit.

The salient point of this podcast episode revolves around the critical examination of the concept of virtual church within the apologetics community. We assert that the practice of attending virtual church cannot replace the fundamental need for physical gathering among believers, as outlined in biblical teachings. The discussion delves into the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on church attendance, highlighting how many individuals erroneously believe that participating in church services online suffices for genuine fellowship and worship. We further explore the necessity of accountability, communal worship, and the ordinances of the church, which cannot be effectively realized in a virtual setting. Ultimately, we contend that the essence of the church lies in the physical assembly of believers, where the richness of community and the fullness of worship can be experienced.Takeaways: The podcast emphasizes the necessity of attending physical church, especially in light of the challenges faced by the apologetics community post-COVID. It is argued that virtual church cannot replace the communal and accountability aspects of a physical gathering of believers. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding the true nature of church as defined by Scripture, which is centered on corporate worship and fellowship. Listeners are encouraged to recognize that merely participating in virtual church does not equate to being part of a local church community. The hosts stress that while virtual interactions can support fellowship, they are not substitutes for the physical gathering of believers. The episode concludes with a call to action, urging individuals to engage actively in their local church and to seek genuine community with other believers.

In this week's show, I'm sharing something a little different for Lent—an examination of the heart. We're used to hearing about an examination of conscience, but this goes even deeper. Lent is more than just fasting, prayer, and almsgiving; it's also an invitation to slow down and take a hard look at what's really in our hearts. Sometimes, without even realizing it, we carry around old wounds—some fresh, some buried beneath years of busyness, distractions, and taking care of everyone else. But God wants to bring those wounds into the light and heal them. I'll walk you through five steps to help you recognize what's weighing on your heart and bring it to God for healing. I've worked with so many women who feel stuck in guilt, regret, betrayal or unworthiness—maybe that sounds familiar to you, too. The truth is, we don't have to carry this heaviness alone. Healing starts when we get honest with ourselves and with God. It's not always easy, but I promise, there is so much freedom, peace, and joy on the other side. We're also going to talk about forgiveness—yeah, that tough one! It's not about pretending the hurt didn't happen, but about letting go so it doesn't have power over us anymore. I'll also share how the sacraments—especially confession and the Eucharist—have been such a huge part of my own healing journey. If you've been feeling weary, distant from God, or just weighed down, this episode is for you. So grab your journal, find a quiet place, and let's walk through this Lenten reflection together. God is waiting to meet you right where you are, and I can't wait to share this with you. Jennie Guinn is a Catholic speaker, Life Coach, Podcaster, Weekly Radio Show Host on Nashville Catholic Radio and Radio Maria USA, and the founder of Catholic Moms in the Middle. After 26 years of working in Catholic education, Jennie felt God calling her "to step out of the boat" to serve in a new way. In her new ministry, she equips and encourages middle-life women to encounter the love of the Father and to be transformed and healed by the power of the Holy Spirit so they can MAGNIFY Christ in their corner of the world.

Instead it offers a glimpse into the religious life of the atrium, a specially prepared place for children to live out their silent request: “Help me come closer to God by myself.” Here we can see the child's spiritual capabilities and perhaps even find in our own souls the child long burdened with religious information. This book serves as a companion to the second volume, The Religious Potential of the Child 6 to 12 Years Old. The desire to have this essential text available in audio has been a long-held goal for many. The work of many hands has combined to bring this release to life as an audiobook.    Find out more about CGS:       Learn more about the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd     Follow us on Social Media-  Facebook at “The United States Association of the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd”  Instagram-  cgsusa  Twitter- @cgsusa  Pinterest- Natl Assoc of Catechesis of the Good Shepherd USA  YouTube- catechesisofthegoodshepherd
