This week, we will continue our study in the book of Romans by taking a closer look at the peace with God that is available to us through the work of Jesus Christ. Christ died for us while we were still sinners, so anyone who puts their faith in Jesus is no longer under God's condemnation. This truth ushers in the reality of peace with God, which leads us to experience joy: in our waiting, in our trials, and in our relationship with God.  Key Verses: Romans 5:1-11

In this ITEST webinar, Dr. Rob Koons and Dr. Terrence Lagerlund deliver talks on Brain and Artificial Intelligence: A Tale of Two Computers, but Only One Made in the Image of God (October 12, 2024)AI and Aristotle: Why No Artifact could ever be ConsciousRobert C. (“Rob”) Koons is a professor of philosophy at the University of Texas at Austin. He holds an M. A. from Oxford and a Ph.D. from UCLA. He is the author or co-author of five books, including The Atlas of Reality with Timothy H. Pickavance (Wiley-Blackwell, 2017) and Is Thomas Aquinas's Philosophy of Nature Obsolete? (St. Augustine Press, 2022). He is the co-editor of four anthologies, including The Waning of Materialism (OUP, 2010) and Classical Theism (Routledge 2023).  He has been working recently on an Aristotelian interpretation of quantum theory, and on defending and articulating hylomorphism in contemporary terms.AbstractThe ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle developed a comprehensive philosophy of nature that laid the foundations for all subsequent scientific inquiry. A central notion of Aristotle's notion is that of a substance (ousia in Greek)—an essentially independent entity that has the highest possible degree of unity (what Thomas Aquinas called ‘per se unity'). Living organisms have this kind of unity, which explains their possession of essentially unified causal powers, like nutrition, growth, and sensation. Simple, homogeneous inorganic substances also exist, like drops of water or quartz crystals. However, all human artifacts, including all robots and computers, are mere “heaps” of inorganic components, lacking the sort of unity required for life, sensation, and consciousness. AI programs can emulate the behavior of conscious organisms, but there is an irreducible gap between appearance and reality.Terrence Lagerlund, MD, PhDBrain, Soul, Artificial Intelligence, and Quantum MysteryDr. Terrence Lagerlund has been a neurologist in the Division of Epilepsy at Mayo Clinic for 35 years, treating patients with epilepsy and interpreting their electroencephalograms. He also lectures to residents and fellows on electroencephalography including basic principles of electricity and neurophysiology. He has published papers and authored book chapters on electroencephalography and epilepsy, particularly regarding quantitative analysis of electroencephalograms. Prior to becoming a neurologist, he obtained a Ph.D. in physics and worked as a postdoctoral research associate at the MIT Laboratory for Nuclear Science (doing research at Brookhaven National Laboratory and CERN) and as a term physicist at Fermilab.AbstractSome computer scientists claim that artificial general intelligence systems will soon be created which can duplicate and eventually far exceed the intellectual abilities of humans. In this presentation we will compare the architecture and learning ability of artificial neural networks implemented on an electronic digital machine and the neural networks of the human brain (of which Professor Marvin Minsky of MIT once pronounced that “the brain is merely a meat machine”). We will demonstrate by philosophical arguments and a mathematical theorem involving Turing machines that understanding abstract concepts, abstract reasoning to ascertain truth, and making free decisions are powers of the human mind that exceed the capabilities of any physical system whether made of electronic circuits or of biological neurons; rather, these capabilities require a nonphysical soul that tightly integrates with the human brain, because of which we can truly say that humans are made in the image and likeness of God.  We will also discuss a new theory of how the soul may interact with the brain by influencing the outcome of quantum processes involving passage of ions through neuronal ion channels within the brain's neural networks synchronized by the 40-70 Hz oscillation, and thereby continually influence retrieval of memories and behavioral choices occurring in these networks so as to allow the soul's choice based on rational deliberation to cause a neuronal network undergoing chaotic behavior to converge upon a different final state (attractor), thereby allowing the soul's choice to be implemented in the brain and body.Brain and Artificial Intelligence—A Tale of Two Computers—But Only One Made in the Image of God - Institute for Theological Encounter with Science and Technology (faithscience.org)

Walk with God | October 2, 2024 Season 18: Partners in the GospelSCRIPTURE: Philippians 1:1-5SHOW NOTES: We invite you to subscribe to our ministry website – Discover God's Truth – where you will find resources to encourage you in your Walk with God. The book of Philippians is Paul's thank-you letter to the church at Philippi. He has great affection for the people who have partnered with him in the Lord's ministry, and this is another opportunity for Paul to encourage the believers. He greets them with these words, “May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace.” (Philippians 1:2)A small city, Philippi was a Roman colony. Paul and his mission team were specifically called from Asia Minor (current day Turkey) to Macedonia. They immediately departed and, a few days later, arrived in Philippi.A vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia was standing there, urging him and saying, “Come over to Macedonia and help us.” And when Paul had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go on into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them … setting sail from Troas, we made a direct voyage to Samothrace, and the following day to Neapolis, and from there to Philippi, which is a leading city of the district of Macedonia and a Roman colony. We remained in this city for some days. (Acts 16:9-12) Paul met Lydia, the seller of purple, and a group of women praying by the river. After hearing the Gospel message, she and her house believed and were baptized. Following a conflict in the marketplace, Paul and Silas were beaten and thrown into prison. God sent an earthquake that night, and the doors were opened, and their chains unfastened. Everyone in the prison that night saw God's mighty power. You have been my partners in spreading the Gospel from the day you first heard it until now.

Even when the task seems insurmountable, we are part of building a better world. That is our sacred mission.This link is to a blog post by Rabbi Wendy Pein that shares tangible actions we can take in this time of need: https://www.tinw.org/rabbi-pein-blog.html?post_id=1465541For our Torah Study this week, Rabbi Jaech reminds us that Reform Jews are not a movement that dogmatically follows biblical laws, although we do emphasize ethical laws.

This week we look at choices in the foods we eat.The text of this podcast is available on our blog.If you like this podcast, you might enjoy the book Biblical Origins: The Political Intent of the Bible's Writers, by renowned Bible scholar Dr. S.

Journey Church Sunday Worship Gathering Audio - Bozeman, Montana

Bob Schwahn | Lead Pastor Question: Why do you do what you do? Luke 15:25-32 (NIV): 25 “Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. 26 So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. 27 ‘Your brother has come,’ he replied, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’ 28 “The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. 29 But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these years I’ve been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. 30 But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!’ 31 “‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. 32 But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’” Matthew 4:19 Matthew 28:18-20 1) Approval Addiction Matthew 6:1-4 “At issue here is the question: ‘To whom do I belong? To God or to the world?’ Many of my daily preoccupations suggest that I belong more to the world than to God. A little criticism makes me angry, and a little rejection makes me depressed. A little praise raises my spirits, and a little success excites me. . . . Often I am like a small boat on the ocean, completely at the mercy of its waves.”— Henri Nouwen (from The Life I Always Wanted, John Ortberg) Galatians 1:10 2) Burnout Matthew 11:28-30 3) Entitlement Mentality Philippians 3:7-9a Matthew 7:21-23 Reflection Questions: Why is it important to ask the question: “Why do I what I do?” with regard to our spiritual lives? What are the potential dangers of not asking that question?Why do you do the things you do “for” God? What are your heart motivations? Do you have mixed motivations? Explain.Read Luke 15:25-32 (Older Son) What are observations you make about the heart motivations (why?) of the older son? What observations do you make about the Father’s heart motivations?In what ways are the motivations of the younger son and the older son similar? How are they different?Have you ever felt like your worth was tied to your performance and service and impact for God? (Explain) Why can this be dangerous thinking? Which of the 4 aspects of the Pause is the most difficult for you?Living life FOR God instead of life WITH God can have some negative side effects that God does not desire for us. Approval Addiction (Matthew 6:1-4, Galatians 1:10) Burnout (Matthew 11:28-30) Entitlement Mentality (Luke 15:28-30) Can you relate to any or all of these? Share your experience? How does Life WITH God address these issues? (Read Scripture references for each.)Read Matthew 7:21-23 How is it possible to do things FOR God and not really be WITH him or even having a relationship with him?
