In this episode, we examine how Americans view government power and economic responsibility during another federal shutdown. We discuss growing distrust of federal authority, confusion over who holds real power, and how political brinkmanship creates real-world consequences such as missed paychecks, grounded flights, and suspended food aid. We cover the ethics of welfare and workfare, the balance between private charity and public assistance, and the economic effects of shutdowns, tariffs, and education spending. Together, these issues reveal how political dysfunction continues to weaken public trust and fiscal stability. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:30 The Myth of Hard Work and the American Dream 01:58 Capitalism vs. Socialism 03:41 Public Distrust in Federal Power 06:43 Trump's Tariffs and the Economics of Uncertainty 09:56 Trump Derangement Syndrome 12:42 Do Billionaires Really Hoard Wealth? 19:18 Foolishness of the Week: Arizona's $80 Million Stadium 22:58 Education Spending and Misplaced Government Priorities 25:20 The Real Cost of a Government Shutdown 29:13 Welfare Reform and the Ethics of Government Aid 32:40 Private Charity vs. Public Assistance 35:05 Flight Delays Due to Shutdown and Thanksgiving 39:17 Who Eats the Losses of a Shutdown? 45:31 Healthcare Costs, Subsidies, and Political Optics 49:09 How Shutdowns Expose Government Dysfunction 51:12 How Will the Shutdown End? 57:01 No Happy End in Sight 59:14 Dream Podcast Guests and Conclusion Learn more about your ad choices.

Imagine waking up one day and realising everything you believed was true… was a lie. The scariest part? You were convinced you were right the entire time. Ignorance isn't harmless. It's the disease that blinds a person while they believe they can see. Across the world, Muslims have endless access to knowledge - reminders, verses, hadith, fatawa - all just a scroll away. Yet never has confusion been so widespread. Sins parade as "freedom." Music is suddenly rebranded as "halal" by modern du'āt despite clear proof to the contrary. Zina, alcohol, and misguidance are no longer shameful - they're personal "choices," "differences of opinion," and "no big deal." The signs of the Hour flicker around us while people argue online. The guardians of knowledge diminish, and ignorance confidently rises to take their place - shaping beliefs, corrupting morals, and slowly dismantling the Ummah from within. People feel confident discussing matters that once made the greatest Sahabah pause. Opinions replace evidence. Impulse replaces forbearance. Foolishness replaces understanding. Ignorance isn't just "not knowing." It is turning away from the truth when it comes. It is rejecting what saves the soul. It is the very reason past nations fell - even after witnessing miracles with their own eyes. It is why some Muslims cannot recognise truth anymore - even when it stands clearly in front of them. It is why sins feel easier than obedience. It is why misguided voices sound convincing. It is why the heart feels dark, heavy, and spiritually dead. This lecture by Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan dives deep into the Qur'an and Sunnah to expose: • How ignorance destroys Iman • Why it leads to shirk, sin, and moral collapse • The spiritual blindness that blocks truth • Why Allah turns away from those who turn away from knowledge • The simple, powerful cures Allah has given us So now, the real question comes to be - are you okay being ignorant? Or will you revive your heart with the light Allah revealed?

In this episode, we discuss Denmark's proposal to grant citizens ownership of their face, voice, and likeness to combat AI deepfakes, and the ethical and legal implications of personal identity rights in the digital age. We highlight the “foolishness of the week” involving tariffs and political overreaction to a Canadian ad campaign, and explore the concept of sound money with guest Jp Cortez of the Sound Money Defense League.

A new MP3 sermon from Founders Baptist Church is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: The Foolishness of False Christianity Subtitle: Series - Revelation 2024-2025 Speaker: Richard Caldwell Jr. Broadcaster: Founders Baptist Church Event: Sunday - AM Date: 10/26/2025 Bible: Revelation 17:7-18 Length: 64 min.

Introduction: Someone once said, "Sin is its own worst avenger." THIS IS TO SAY, "IN THE SINS THEMSELVES ARE THE SEEDS THAT DESTROY." The CONSEQUENCES of sin punish the transgressor. The man or woman who chooses sin chooses self-harm. WHY? BECAUSE SIN IS TRANSGRESSION AGAINST GOD HIMSELF. Whatever is contrary to God's nature and God's will is contrary to GOOD. ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS IS GOOD AND ALL SIN IS DESTRUCTIVE. And standing behind all sin, all rebellion against God is the great leader of that rebellion — Satan — and he is a DESTROYER. ESV John 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. NAS Revelation 9:11 They have as king over them, the angel of the abyss; his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in the Greek he has the name Apollyon. (Ἀπολλύων is "a destroyer.") In sin is that which is OUT OF ORDER. In sin is that which is SELF-DESTROYING. In sin is that which is OTHERS-DESTROYING. In sin is the WISDOM FROM BELOW that produces CHAOS ALL AROUND. THE FRUIT OF SIN IS PAIN, LOSS, REGRET, DISCONTENTMENT, AND EMPTINESS.

WISDOM is to understand the FOOLISHNESS of the Unwise. Seek Jesus Christ and claim Holy Spirit WISDOM.Contact Us: Covenants.llc1@yahoo.com; @Covenants; CovenantsOnLine.com; or call 304.528.9220.

In this episode, we explore how the message of the cross stands in stark contrast to the wisdom of the world. Paul faced a culture in Athens that was obsessed with knowledge, philosophy, and reasoning, yet he boldly proclaimed Christ crucified. The gospel may seem foolish to some, but it reveals the true wisdom and power of God to those who believe. Join us as we unpack how this truth still challenges hearts and minds today—and how we can share it boldly in a world that often misunderstands it.

Embracing chaos as a source for positive change is a powerful mindset shift. Instead of viewing disruption as a disaster to be resisted, you can learn to see it as the energy of possibility—a necessary period of deconstruction before a better creation can emerge. This process requires retaining hope and using the pause created by the chaos to your advantage. 1. Retaining Hope: The Inner Anchor in Chaos Focusing on Agency (What You Can Control): Chaos is defined by what's out of control. Retain hope by aggressively focusing on your immediate sphere of influence: your daily routine, your physical health, your choice of response, and your mindset. Small acts of personal order create pockets of hope. Practicing "Hopecore": Actively look for and amplify positive elements. This means limiting overwhelming news consumption, surrounding yourself with supportive people, and intentionally engaging in activities that bring you genuine joy or a sense of purpose. 2. Seeing Chaos as a Source for Change Chaos is, by definition, a state where old structures have broken down, making it the most fertile ground for transformation. The Deconstruction Principle: A chaotic event (a job loss, a global crisis, a relationship change) doesn't just destroy; it clears the slate of outdated assumptions, commitments, and habits that were holding you back. This forced deconstruction reveals what truly matter. 3. Bending Change for Positive: The "Positive Chaos" Mindset To "bend" the energy of chaos for positive outcomes, you must adopt an active, experimental approach. 4. Using the Pause: Transformational Stillness Chaos often imposes a pause—a stop to old momentum—which is a profound gift for reflection and intention. Mindful Observation: Use the pause for mindfulness, not just passive waiting. Observe your situation without judgment, letting go of the ego's need to control the external world. Identify the core values and priorities that the chaos has brought into sharp relief. Strategic Repositioning: A pause is not inaction; it is re-action. It's the time to plan your next move, not just repeat your last one. #AnxietyRelief #StressReduction #MentalHealthMatters #SelfSoothe #StopTheScroll #Mindfulness #MindfulLiving #InnerPeace #PresentMoment #BeHereNow #DailyCalm   NaNoWriMo is No Mo;; While no single entity has officially replaced NaNoWriMo, the closure spurred a surge of new and existing independent writing challenges designed to fill the void and continue the spirit of communal novel writing. Notable alternatives and new competitions that have emerged for November (and often for other months like April) include: Novel November (NovNov) by ProWritingAid: A 50,000-word challenge with workshops, daily co-writing, and a collaborative spirit, supported by various writing companies. Reedsy Novel Sprint: Follows the classic NaNoWriMo timeline and word count target but offers prizes and professional development support. AutoCrit's Novel 90 Writing Challenge: An extended challenge running for 90 days (often Oct 1 - Dec 31) to allow for a more sustainable pace in completing a first draft. The Order of the Written Word (O2W): An alternative founded by a former Municipal Liaison, specifically positioned as a space for authors against the use of AI. Other Platforms: Gamified platforms and tools like 4thewords, Shut Up & Write!, and Pacemaker continue to offer community-driven goal tracking and support. The Parable From Calculus of the Street to Blockchain Building A New World Ledger Verification at a Time. ”In the late hours, when Marcus recited proofs from memory and Sarah spun stories of exile and resilience, I remembered the calculus of the streets—the way information pulsed through networks invisible to those in power. We weren't inventing anything new; we were translating old survival strategies into modern code. We were reclaiming what was always ours: the right to build systems that served those who'd been left out.” Natasha Sanderson, The Collab; The Trickster: A Parable “The hypocrisy was sickening. Christian America, preaching order and self-sufficiency, was wholly dependent on the slave labor of the workhouses. In turn, its own supply lines were so weak they were being raided by common criminals. The system was eating itself alive. Their fixed world was a complete lie. We were witnessing the final, brutal truth of the Pox era: the collapse of centralized power created not just chaos, but a vacuum that anyone—whether a black market trader or a Trickster prophet —could exploit. This chaos, this failure of the old world order, was the fertile ground in which Earthseed was even able to survive. The more the surface world failed, the more vital our subterranean self-sufficiency, our digital Collab, and our hydroponic gardens became. We were a tiny, living island of order in a sea of unraveling lies.” Reality TV...Continue the Cycle of Absudity...Non-Black commentors may want to keep Dr. Wendy Osefo's name out of your mouth...The Belles from Celebration of Life to Glendale Man-trum...Reconciliation through Weed Muffins...

How To Build Your Best Life - Week 1

Daily audio recordings of CMFI Praise, Prayer and Fasting Crusade. From 13th October to 21st Nov 2025

Friend of the Pod, Amanda Hunt, is back to talk about Real Housewives of Salt Lake City and Real Housewives of Potomac and other tangents!

How do we avoid the path of foolishness that the book of Proverbs talks about? How do we walk with wisdom in this world and honor Jesus with our lives?

Fr. Mike contextualizes our readings from 1 Maccabees today which covers the beginning of Roman rule over the Jewish people. Additionally, he emphasizes the wisdom from Sirach about surrounding ourselves with influences that lead us closer to God and help us grow in holiness. Today's readings are 1 Maccabees 8, Sirach 22-23, and Proverbs 22:26-29. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

Ashley wants proof of Stacey's divorce, saying, “We can be a lot of things, but we can't be liars.” That sets the tone for a night of shade and shifting alliances.Wendy tries to play peacemaker, but Ashley quickly stirs things up by calling Stacey out for lying. Stacey feels attacked and confused as the women gang up on her, while Karen's friend Cookie makes a cameo ahead of Karen's upcoming birthday.We meet new Housewife Tia, who reveals her Nigerian royal lineage and her upscale lifestyle — a total contrast to the other ladies. Meanwhile, Ashley throws in an “epic surprise”: a stripper. Because, of course.Later, Wendy and Stacey meet for a low-key catch-up (sparkling water instead of champagne). Stacey drops two bombshells — she's back with her husband and she's launching a cannabis line. Wendy's face says it all: girl, the math isn't mathing.We get a glimpse into Angel's life in the DMV, her NFL hubby Bobby, and their stunning Colorado mansion. She's adjusting to life as the group's “rookie,” but as she says, “I'm not a rookie woman.”At Tia's house, we see her family dynamic and Giselle's first impressions. Giselle, as usual, keeps the pot stirring — especially after learning about a supposed “chin check” between Angel and Kiarna.The “Truth and Tranquility” yoga party turns into “Lies and Foolishness,” according to Giselle. Angel tries to keep things zen, but once Giselle brings up the “chin check,” chaos follows. Kiarna ends up apologizing, and the ladies try to regroup with mints (for more reasons than one). Ashley claims the mints were meant for Stacey's “hot breath,” which adds insult to injury.During the fire circle, Stacey calls Ashley over to confront her about questioning her divorce and shows what she says is a legal notification — but Giselle immediately calls it fake. The receipts aren't receipting.Finally, the ladies honor Karen's birthday without her, sharing memories from her time in jail. But the biggest twist comes from Cookie's phone: a text from Chris Samuels. Apparently, Stacey tried to shoot her shot with Monique's husband — even asking Ashley's friend to introduce them. Three weeks later, word gets back to Monique… and it's clear this mess is just getting started.TakeawaysWendy's arrest impacts her role in the show.The editing choices reflect the seriousness of Wendy's situation.Ashley faces scrutiny over her divorce and its authenticity.Group dynamics shift as alliances form and dissolve.Stacey's character is questioned by the group.The introduction of a stripper at a party raises eyebrows.Champagne mishaps highlight the cast's social skills.Stacey's relationship updates create tension among the women.Giselle's treatment of Karen is seen as hypocritical.Tia's background adds depth to her character.Ashley navigates complex family dynamics.Speed dating leads to new romantic developments.Angel's transition into the group is met with mixed reactions.Giselle's mean girl tactics are criticized.The sound bath event serves as a backdrop for conflict.Confessions reveal deeper issues among the women.The mint controversy symbolizes ongoing tensions.Karen's birthday celebration is overshadowed by drama.Chris Samuels' involvement raises questions about Stacey's intentions.Monique's return couldSupport the showhttps://www.wewinewhenever.com/

In this episode of The Vortex Apologetic, Beef and the Brain discuss how we are to live before the world, how we are to submit to government and masters.  They look to 1 Peter 2 for wisdom and guidance. Also, the continued violence and rhetoric that is rampant in our society.  And a look at the foolishness taking place within evangelicalism.  As always, Tune in, listen and be a Berean!     Episode recorded on October 11, 2025

We are finite creatures serving an infinite God, so we must keep learning and growing. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the need for a spiritual understanding of God's movements in the earth. We heard from speakers including Pastor John Amanchukwu, Pastor Rob McCoy, Eric Metaxas, and others during the 2025 Culture & Christianity Conference, and Pastor Allen shares some takeaways from their messages. Holiness and courage must take precedence over our happiness and comfort, and we must renew and deepen our respect for the Lord. Christianity demands of us a willingness to sacrifice our lives—so will we say to the Lord, “I'll follow you”?

"Saint Andrew came of a family of devout, unlettered peasants. He obtained an education by going to church and, on the death of his parents, became a novice at the Monastery of Galich, in the diocese of Kostroma. The Abbot, who was remarkable for his wisdom, discerned Andrew's spiritual gifts and encouraged him to undertake the unusual and difficult ascesis of Foolishness-for-Christ. Andrew left the monastery to lead a wayfaring life, but often returned to reveal his thoughts and deeds to his starets. On his Elder's death, he settled near the Church of the Resurrection in the town of Totma, where he was completely unknown. He spent the whole night in prayer and during the day begged alms that he forthwith gave to the poor. He went barefoot summer and winter and lived on nothing but bread and water. Every year he made a pilgrimage to the holy places of the region. One day he was accosted by the chief of an outlandish tribe. The man was suffering from an eye complaint and asked Andrew, who was already looked upon as a wonderworker, to cure him. Andrew fled, but the wild man washed his eyes in the snow trodden by the Saint and was healed.   "Worn out by ascesis and privation, Saint Andrew foreknew the day of his decease. He called a priest, confessed and communicated in the holy Mysteries, and not long after he fell asleep in the Lord, a heavenly scent pervading the room where his body lay. Some time later, the Saint appeared to a sick woman as she slept, holding the Gospel for her to venerate and telling her to pray at his tomb. When she awoke, the woman was healed." (Synaxarion)

What happens when we stop trusting God? Drawing from 2 Samuel 24 and 1 Chronicles 21, this message shows how King David's decision to take a census exposed the danger of self-reliance, the ripple effects of sin, but ultimately, the mercy that follows genuine repentance and sacrificial worship. Our prayer is that you'll trade counting for trusting, repent quickly, and bring God a costly, obedient worship that invites His mercy and fire into your life.

Proverbs 1:1-7 reveals that true wisdom begins with fearing the Lord—fools reject this, clinging to their own way, leading only to emptiness and destruction.

Monday 10/6/25

In this message, Lee Coate contrasts worldly wisdom, which is driven by envy, selfish ambition, and appearances, with godly wisdom, which produces purity, peace, mercy, and sincerity as described in James 3. He emphasizes that wisdom is not about age or intellect but about humbly applying God's truth through prayerful asking and intentional pursuit in daily life. Ultimately, he challenges believers to embrace what may look like “the foolishness of God”—living counter-culturally in faith, humility, and obedience, trusting that God's way leads to true life and flourishing.

Proverbs 18: 1-24

There are many foolish people in the Bible. They ignore the wisdom of the Lord and choose their own way. But don't be so hard on these characters. Their stories are a reflection of what we struggle with each day. In today's episode, we return to Paul's sermon series from the archives, David: A Matter of the Heart. This week, Paul reveals the foolishness of three men and points us to the only source of Wisdom.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons.Partner with Paul Tripp Ministries:PaulTripp.com/Give
