In this nostalgic episode, Payal speaks with Fredrick, who takes us back to his childhood in a rural kampong more than sixty years ago. He recalls life in a muddy, undeveloped neighborhood, where daily routines included helping his mother rear pigs and chickens, fetching water from ponds, and playing freely in the rain. Fredrick paints a rich picture of open spaces filled with fruit trees, local opera stages, and nearby quarries, a world full of simplicity and adventure. He also reminisces about his early years living in a colonial black-and-white house, where his father worked as a cook, and where he first encountered music through a gramophone. Through his warm storytelling, Fredrick reflects on a childhood rooted in nature, play, and heartfelt memories of a bygone Singapore.[Lumina Vitae,Light of Life,Melting Pot Series, Podcast,The Bloom Fund,Stories of Singapore,Heritage ReimaginedCommunity Through Art,Singapore Stories]#LuminaVitae #MeltingPotSeries #TheBloomFund #SingaporeStories #CommunityArt #TheBloomFund #SingaporeHeritage #AIMeetsMemory #IntergenerationalStories #NHB Hosted on Acast.

What gives someone the courage to stand up for truth—even when it costs them everything? Martin Luther’s bold stand for the Gospel wasn’t born from rebellion but from revelation. Rooted in Ephesians 2:8, his discovery that salvation comes by grace through faith ignited a movement that changed history. Having the heart of a reformer means loving God, loving His Church, and being unwilling to compromise the truth of Scripture—no matter the consequences. Highlights A reformer’s heart begins with a deep passion to draw close to God and live by His Word. Luther’s relentless study of Scripture led him to uncover the truth of salvation by grace, not works. True reformers love the Church enough to seek its correction, not its destruction. Luther’s bold action—nailing his 95 Theses—sparked a spiritual awakening that shaped Christianity. Sharing the truth requires courage, humility, and a willingness to face rejection. Luther’s legacy reminds us that faithfulness to God’s Word outweighs fear of man. Every believer is called to carry that same conviction—to speak truth in love and protect the purity of the Gospel.

If you've ever wished you had a therapist in your back pocket, Dial Emma is here to help.Our dilemma this week comes from a listener who is navigating a lifelong struggle with weight and self-acceptance. After years of dieting without lasting success, she finally found hope through weight-loss injections - but when she had to stop due to the cost, the weight, and the shame that comes with it, returned. Now, she finds herself caught between the pressure to start the medication again and the desire to accept herself as she is.To help me respond to our lovely listener and provide some much needed scientific insight, I'm delighted to be joined by Dr. Fredrik Nyström, professor of medicine at Linköping University in Sweden and author of Lighten the Load on Your Shoulders. Fredrik has spent more than 30 years working within endocrinology and studying hormone-producing glands and organs, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes.Fredrik and I explore the complexities of weight management, the societal pressures that often influence our relationship with food and appearance, and the psychological impacts of dieting. We also discuss the role of GLP-1 agonists in weight loss, the importance of self-acceptance in a world filled with conflicting messages about body image, and the power of challenging societal norms and embracing personal choices when it comes to our health and wellbeing.If you have a dilemma for Emma, please fill out this form. ---Dial Emma is hosted by Emma Reed Turrell, produced by Lauren Brook.---Social media:Emma Reed Turrell @emmareedturrellDial Emma @dialemmapodcastEmail: contact@dial-emma.uk

Sjuårskriget 1756-63 utkämpades på tre kontinenter och har därför kallats det första världskriget. I Nordamerika och Indien konfronterades Storbritannien och Frankrike i en kamp om kolonier och kontroll över världshaven. I Europa slogs Fredrick den stores Preussen på liv och död mot franska, ryska och habsburgska arméer.Krigföringen på den europeiska kontinenten innebar något av en höjdpunkt för linjetaktiken och inte minst de välexercerade infanteribataljonerna och deras muskötsalvor.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden samtalar Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved om Sjuårskrigets orsaker, förlopp och konsekvenser främst i Nordamerika och Europa.Konfliktens förhistoria är komplicerad och handlade om den tidens snabba skiftningar och nycker i utrikespolitiken. Preussen ställdes mot en överväldigande koalition av stater bestående av Habsburg, Frankrike, Ryssland och till och med Sverige. I botten på motsättningarna fanns Preussens uppkomst som militärmakt och seger över Habsburg under 1740-talet. På många sätt var det frågan om en maktuppgörelse inom det tyskromerska riket mellan kejsarmaktens Habsburg och utmanaren Preussen. Stöd fick Preussen endast av Storbritannien.Till konflikten på kontinenten hörde även en uppgörelse mellan Storbritannien och Frankrike om kolonier och kontroll över handelsvägar över hela jordklotet. Främst kom kriget att föras i Nordamerika och i Indien. Britterna visade sig i slutänden överlägsna och kunde med kriget slutligen etablera sig som den främsta kolonialmakten på Frankrikes bekostnad.På kontinenten kämpade preussarna mot övermakten och lyckades trots allt rida ut kriget utan att krossas. Inte minst berodde detta på deras militära förmåga och Fredrick den stores ledarskap även om segrar blandades med blodiga nederlag. Med sin taktiska förmåga och inte minst sin flexibilitet och ”sneda slagordning” vann Fredrick spektakulära segrar som vid Rossbach och Leuthen 1757 mot numerärt överlägsna arméer.Litteraturtips är två titlar ur Ospreys serie: Simon Miller Rossback och Leuthen 1757 (2002) och Daniel Marston The Seven Year´s War (2001).Bild: General Wolfes död (1771), på Abrahams slätter, nära Quebec av Benjamin West; wikipedia, Public Domain.

In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show, we dive into a controversial officer-involved shooting in Jackson, Mississippi. A retired FBI expert, Jeffery Artis, has deemed the deadly force used by Capitol Police officers Michael Rhinewalt and Steven Fredrick as justified during a 2022 traffic stop that killed Jaylen Lewis. On September 25, 2022, officers attempted to pull over Lewis's Jeep, linked to auto burglaries. The vehicle struck a police car and accelerated toward the officers, prompting them to fire. Lewis was armed with handguns, an assault rifle, and drugs were found inside. Despite the officers' fears for their lives—backed by witness accounts, including passenger Selena Hayes, who said Lewis was fleeing, not targeting them—Rhinewalt and Fredrick face manslaughter charges from the Attorney General's office, indicted in April 2025.Artis, drawing on Supreme Court standards, argues the response was objectively reasonable, viewing the vehicle as a deadly weapon. Join us as we unpack the evidence, expert analysis, and implications for police accountability.

Toward the end of this episode, you will hear revered Organization Development practitioner Fred Miller speak enthusiastically about an unprecedented wave of change, presenting fundamentally new prospects for organizational development.

Send us a textA Jeep named Blasphemy idled outside a church he never meant to visit—and a single text pushed the door open. What followed wasn't a lightning bolt but a slow, stubborn grace that met a former Luciferian in his grief, his doubts, and his need for peace. We sit down with Frederick to trace the path from fear-based power to a life anchored in Christ, including the moment he saw a cross “lit” that shouldn't have been, the day he renounced the enemy out loud on a lonely road, and the quiet practices that turned turmoil into clarity.We also dig into a question that confuses and scares many: can Christians be possessed by demons? With biblical grounding and help from Dr. Andrew Farley's teaching, we draw a firm line—indwelt by the Holy Spirit means not possessed. The enemy's weapons are accusation, deception, and distraction from the outside, but our identity in Christ—holy, forgiven, a new creation—secures the inside. That shift moves us from demon-focused anxiety to Jesus-centered confidence.Finally, we get practical about living a victorious life. Not hype—habits. We talk discipline that looks like devotion: reading Scripture in context, praying out loud when the mind runs wild, choosing daily to walk as a child of God with power, love, and a sound mind. If you've wrestled with dark nights, lingering shame, or the lies that keep you small, this story and the truths we unpack will help you stand tall in the light.If this conversation encouraged you, share it with a friend who needs hope today.

Warehouse 13 Fancast Lead Agent Shannon is envious of Artie's Warehouse apple and Agent Carolyn succumbs to all Pete's Warehouse memory feels while Janitor SP is thankful for Leena's slight retcon. This week's crew review and rewatch the Warehouse 13 season 5 sixth and series finale episode "Endless." The Agents discuss all the feels with the finale and the series, if the finale stuck the landing, why the Warehouse didn't move, the important retcon with Leena, why binging the series made it better, the inverse ninja law, all the new Warehouse fact and seeing the Warehouse as a character, if we would like to see a continuation or reboot or prequel, our advice to future Warehouse 13 podcasters, and all that heartfelt audience feedback. We also touch upon what Mrs. Fredrick showed to Jinks, Artie's marquee Warehouse apple scene, Artie's son and telling Claudia to be selfish, Mrs Fredrick's laugh, Pete finally reading the manual and his defining moment, that Pate and Myka kiss that changed everything, the Munsters, Star Trek references including Jinks defining moment, artifact neutralization (again), and that big production tap-dance scene.

It got me thinking that I really want to start something with my Legacy Fiber Artz minis from previous year advents. Maybe a Granny Stripe blanket? Or perhaps another Recollections crochet blanket. I made one in the summer of 2022 (check out my Ravelry Project Page). It uses fingering weight yarn held triple and treble crochets. You work each row right to left and cut each time. between each set of clusters you use a main color. Debating using Fibernymph 10g minis from last year's advent for those rows (notes say it used- about 8g per row but that's held triple which might just be too annoying). I'm debating making a smaller blanket that will live on the backseat of my car, draped over. Mostly for the pop of color with my gray interior but I bet the kids would use it when they're back there. I'd also like to make a crocheted granny square tank top for the summer so I could potentially use some of my minis for that. Do you have any ideas for me?   From the Armchair   The Wandering Purl YouTube channel- I have a Gilmore Girls sock sized bag from Bethany and I know lots of you are fans of her, but I didn't realize she had a channel!  Enjoying her content, check it out.

(free crochet pattern on Ravelry). Yarn has a lot of twist, got all tangly and we stayed after to untangle it together while other cast members performed on stage. On the first night of rehearsal one of my cast-mates asked about my knitting and through that conversation we figured out we've worked together before. She was the choreographer when I was in a production of Crazy for You at a local community college when I was in high school. I wore my Aurealis sweater (Ravelry Project Page) one night to music rehearsal and my friend Deana complimented it and I told her I knit it! Laura's sock drawer! How gorgeous is this?   In My Travels Vegas trip for BOSS Reseller Remix & FearLESS Living Fund 2025 Awards We gave away 2 $5,000 scholarships Mom's friend Crystal got a fearless tattoo on her arm. We enjoyed visiting the Sphere to see the Postcards from Earth documentary. We checked out the Bellagio Conservatory for their beautiful display of Easter decor/flowers. Knitting at craps table with Jeff. The manager told me he doesn't see many firsts anymore but I was the first person he'd ever seen knitting in a casino before. He came back a few minutes later asking what I was making- definitely intrigued. It took until the last day- walking through New York New York to find Wizard of Oz slots Mom loved best. It was obviously a bittersweet trip. Ryan Wilson said it best when he said before talking about 2 winners- in some ways this is the most important year because its the first one without Mom and we're still doing it.

Have you heard of it?   Ask Me Anything Instagram- Knitbakecook- Do you ever have crafting slumps? If so, how do you overcome them? Yes! Sometimes it helps just to lean into that, don't pressure yourself and then lean back in when you get the urge. More often, what works best is to start something new (or pick back up something that is exciting you). Ideally something small like a hat or a toy so you get that dopamine hit of finishing something fun to get those creative juices flowing. Search your Ravelry favorite or queue, browse Instagram or Pinterest and let yourself day dream a little. Creative time should be fun so find the fun and you'll be excited to get back into things.
