Why does a kettle cost less than ten pounds?What kind of official refuses to send the army against protesters in one decade, then puts thirty million people out of work in the next?And when the man who built modern China spent his last twenty years saying nothing at all, what was he saying?Peter Frankopan and Afua Hirsch disagree, at length and on the record, about whether the architect of the modern cheap economy was brave or simply ruthless.Zhu Rongji died in Beijing in August, aged 97. Outside China his name means very little. Inside China, and inside every container ship leaving Ningbo, it means a great deal. He trained as an electrical engineer, was expelled from the Communist Party for speaking approvingly of economic reform in Hungary and Yugoslavia, spent five years doing manual labour during the Cultural Revolution, and came back to run Shanghai. In 1989 he refused to send the army against the city's protesters and went on television to talk them down instead. Then, as premier, he dismantled the iron rice bowl and cost somewhere between thirty and forty million people their jobs. Peter thinks that took nerve. Afua thinks ruthless and callous are the better words. Neither quite talks the other round.Join Legacy Plus for bonus episodes, early access, Q&A's, fewer adverts and more.legacy.supportingcast.fm[0:00] Three deaths in eight weeks, in Havana, Washington and Beijing — and why the deputy often tells you more[4:30] Zhu Rongji, dead at 97, and why a kettle costs less than ten pounds[6:08] Expelled from the Party, then five years of manual labour[8:38] Shanghai, 1989: the man who would not send in the army[11:47] Grasping the large, letting go of the small — and the end of the iron rice bowl[17:00] Brave or callous?

In this shiur, Reb Joey explores the hidden order within the apparent entanglement of lived experience. Through the mystical imagery of the se'aros—the hairs through which higher light descends into the worlds—we encounter the difference between the simplicity and clarity of the upper realms and the complexity, doubt, and fragmentation of life below.Support Reb Joey's Torah: ⁠⁠⁠https://inwardtorah.org/support⁠⁠

Here we are at the underwhelming payoff of last episode's cliffhanger.   We get to see the meeting with the doctor to go over Lego and Pest's medical exam results.  Neither one of them eats well, nor exercises, and the results are what you would expect. At the Pest Nest, they get a visit from ole Pecan Waller and the little lady he married, whatever-her-name-is.    In the Dig, we finally get to Priscilla Waller.  In typical Priscilla fashion, this Dig was planned before but kept getting pushed out of the way by other IBLP mens stories.  If you would like to support the work that we do, head on over to www.buymeacoffee.com/diggingupthedug where you can buy us a coffee, if you would just like to support us in a one-off fashion.

Read OnlineLimitless ForgivenessPeter approached Jesus and asked him, “Lord, if my brother sins against me, how often must I forgive him? As many as seven times?” Jesus answered, “I say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven times.” Matthew 18:21–22In the Book of the Prophet Amos, a poetic formula is repeated: “For three crimes of Damascus, and now four—I will not take it back…” (cf. Amos 1). By the time of Jesus, rabbinic tradition had adopted the interpretation of this passage to mean that God forgives three times, but not four and, therefore, so should we: “When a person commits a transgression the first time, he is forgiven; a second time, he is forgiven; a third time, he is forgiven; but the fourth time, he is not forgiven” (Yoma 86b).In today's Gospel, Peter's question is generous but still rooted in human calculation. His question follows immediately after Jesus teaches about fraternal correction. Peter, taking in this instruction and knowing the rabbinic tradition, more than doubles the expected number of times to forgive, suggesting seven. But Jesus immediately corrects him—not to reject his generosity, but to elevate it: “I say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven times.”This phrase, “seventy-seven times,” is not a literal number; it signifies that forgiveness must be limitless, reflecting the boundless mercy of God. It is not merely a command to repeat acts of forgiveness, but an invitation to let our hearts be formed by Divine Mercy.The parable Jesus tells in response to Peter's question offers deeper insight into His meaning. It echoes the fifth petition of the Lord's Prayer: “Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.” A king has a servant who owes him a huge amount—an unpayable debt, symbolizing the incalculable weight of our sin before God. When the servant begs for patience, the king goes beyond all expectation: he forgives the entire debt out of compassion. But that same servant, having just received mercy, encounters a fellow servant who owes him only a small amount. Rather than extending the mercy he himself had received, he becomes violent, demanding repayment and imprisoning the man. The king, upon hearing this, is enraged—not merely because of injustice, but because of the servant's utter failure to mirror the mercy he had been shown. Jesus concludes with a sobering warning: “So will my heavenly Father do to you, unless each of you forgives his brother from his heart.”Limitless forgiveness is very difficult unless we have a deep and abiding gratitude for the Divine Mercy God has shown us. Our debt before God is incalculable. We could never repay it on our own. Though we might be tempted to think, “I'm a good person,” Scripture reminds us: “All have sinned and are deprived of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). Without Jesus taking on our human condition and paying the debt of our sin through His suffering and death, we could not be saved. Grasping this truth and allowing it to penetrate our hearts is essential to living the Christian life.Only when we become keenly aware of the mercy God has poured into our lives can we foster true gratitude. And it is that gratitude that must inspire and compel us to offer the same limitless mercy to everyone who sins against us—no exceptions, no conditions. Just as we have been forgiven, so must we forgive, from the heart.Reflect today on how deeply you are aware of the mercy God has shown you. Do you take it for granted, or have you allowed it to transform you? Consider especially those you struggle to forgive. Let gratitude for God's mercy soften your heart. From that softened heart, choose to forgive—not seven times, but seventy-seven times and beyond. In doing so, you will reflect the very heart of God and become a vessel of His saving grace in the world.Most merciful Jesus, there is no limit to the love and forgiveness You continuously offer us. We are indebted to You with our very lives. Please give me the grace I need to be truly grateful for Your Divine Mercy and to express that gratitude by showing the same limitless mercy to all. Use me, dear Lord, as a vessel of Your grace and tender care. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image: Jesus and Saint Peter, by Jean-Baptiste CapronnierSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc.

In this Bible Story, we learn about King Zedekiah's stubbornness against the Babylonians. He fights against them despite Jeremiah's warnings. Jeremiah continues to warn people that fighting against Babylon is a vain attempt - like grasping at air. This story is inspired by 2 Chronicles 36:10-16 & 2 Kings 24:18-25:2 & Jeremiah 37. Go to https://www.BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is Jeremiah 37:17 from the King James Version.Episode 158: Jeremiah, still captive in the courthouse of Judah, was praying to God when he received a Word from Him that Hanamel would soon be coming to sell him his land in Anathoth. But this was about more than relieving his uncle of a burden, it was God's way of showing the people what He would do for them. So Jeremiah continued to preach the Word of God to the people and he continued to receive beatings from them. One day, he was summoned by King Zedekiah to give him the truth of the situation and though he spoke honestly to the King, he did not follow Jeremiah's advice. Yet even as the gates of the courthouse were being broken down, God protected Jeremiah and gave him mercy.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

In this episode of The Psychedelic Podcast, Paul F. Austin sits down with Dr. Stefanie Kleine, psychospiritual coach, author of BE THE WORK, and co-founder of The Sacred House of Eden, to explore the hidden wound that often drives achievement and why lasting transformation happens on the level of being rather than doing. Find full show notes and links here: https://thethirdwave.co/podcast/episode-361/?ref=278  Drawing on more than two decades of experience coaching executives, founders, athletes, physicians, and other high performers, Stefanie shares how her first psychedelic experience revealed the pattern beneath a lifetime of accomplishment and opened a path toward deeper self-acceptance. She explains her framework of grasping versus generative desire, the Be-Do-Have inversion, and why many personal growth and wellness practices can unintentionally reinforce the same striving they aim to heal. The conversation also explores psychedelic integration, Internal Family Systems-informed coaching, conscious leadership, nervous system regulation, AI and human connection, and what it means to move from proving your worth to inhabiting it. Throughout, Stefanie offers a grounded perspective on why ceremony is only the beginning and how true transformation unfolds through the choices we make afterward. Dr. Stefanie Kleine is a psychospiritual coach, guide, and author who has spent more than 23 years coaching executives, founders, attorneys, physicians, athletes, and other high performers. She holds a master's degree and PhD in psychology and is the co-founder of The Sacred House of Eden, one of the leading psychedelic retreat centers in the United States. Since 2018, she has guided more than 1,600 ceremonies and integration processes. Her work centers on what she calls the Be-Do-Have Inversion: the shift from human doing to human being. She is the author of BE THE WORK: The Shift from Human Doing to Human Being and has been featured in Bloomberg, The Wall Street Journal, and Forbes. Highlights: The wound beneath high achievement Stefanie's first psychedelic awakening Grasping versus generative desire Why transformation happens on the being level The Be-Do-Have inversion Psychedelic integration beyond ceremony Internal Family Systems and coaching Conscious leadership after psychedelic work AI, humanity, and authentic connection Moving from striving to wholeness Episode Links: Dr. Stefanie's website The Sacred House of Eden "BE THE WORK" book Free Guided Meditation by Dr. Stefanie Episode Sponsors: The Practitioner Certification Program by Third Wave's Psychedelic Coaching Institute.

“This Wisdom Is a Grasping of God; Its Fruit Love and Joy” by Gregory Haggard (CA'26) Senior Address Commencement 2026 Thomas Aquinas College, California

Pastor Valerie spoke about our identity as image bearers. We need to clearly understand what it means that we are created in the image of God. He has created us to be a Kingdom of Priests, His representation on earth. Isaiah 32:1-4 and other passages show us how this is possible. Grasping this better enables us, as we seek God, to do as Jesus did, as His disciple, but also to disciple others.

In this conversation, we speak with John Sweat, Jared Ebert, Dewey Dovel, James Edwards, Justin Miller, and Jason Gunter on their new book "From Dust to Glory: The Fourfold State of Man." The aim of this joint project by the Savoring the Savior Fellows is to unpack the theology of the fourfold state of man for the building up of the ordinary Christian. Because we are created for God, our souls find their only true Sabbath in Him. Through the Scriptures, God provides the dual knowledge of the Creator and the self—a knowledge that guards against idolatry and anchors the soul in true worship. Grasping this story of dust to glory will cause you to long to be increasingly transformed into the image of God in Christ and long to enter the state of glory with Him.  Pick up your copy here: https://www.amazon.com/Dust-Glory-Fourfold-State-Man/dp/B0GSZQPCBY/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3TLZYQK571NMA&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.YsBuCmsaZWItIhrHC9OoTSrnykXUpCIxohMCMKOl_evQrvBn0SM4ws-asw9_b7mJbh3sSnNj8ylUWxIRLjPyO1FlhdlQrXfcbDor8xFWIiwtW_VTg4PcIrh1n_FxvvE3z6-4fVtnkg3bG3aeczPqi0mUSZ3zWQE7UP7-0yuJSNApstvOCR6FKMKQWRDHD38aDF4AzZl5_QKZBL8kkAS1bYp0OQr7gRUmHT_V1z6v5ec.eFOSyJX-btYZZx_mYfr05Abx2chNmX8YLsx4reCFpbA&dib_tag=se&keywords=Dust+to+Glory&qid=1777315229&s=books&sbo=RZvfv%2F%2FHxDF%2BO5021pAnSA%3D%3D&sprefix=dust+to+glory%2Cstripbooks%2C137&sr=1-3
