    Welcome back to Season 10 of Case Closed. We're starting the year with Hayley Scrivenor's Dirt Creek, a small-town mystery with ‘sharp-edged tempers, accidents waiting to happen, and dark inheritances'. You won't want to miss this one.Who's lying about what happened at Dirt Creek?When twelve-year-old Esther disappears on the way home from school in a small town in rural Australia, the community is thrown into a maelstrom of suspicion and grief. As Detective Sergeant Sarah Michaels arrives in town during the hottest spring in decades and begins her investigation, Esther's tenacious best friend, Ronnie, is determined to find Esther and bring her home.When schoolfriend Lewis tells Ronnie that he saw Esther with a strange man at the creek the afternoon she went missing, Ronnie feels she is one step closer to finding her. But why is Lewis refusing to speak to the police? And who else is lying about how much they know about what has happened to Esther?Punctuated by a Greek chorus, which gives voice to the remaining children of the small, dying town, this novel explores the ties that bind, what we try and leave behind us, and what we can never outrun, while never losing sight of the question of what happened to Esther, and what her loss does to a whole town.We'll release two new episodes every week beginning January 21st! Make sure to subscribe to Case Closed to get notified each week as episodes drop. We don't want you to miss anything. Be sure to listen or download by March 6th so you can hear the whole twisty story. Can't wait until next week? You can find Dirt Creek, read by Sophie Loughran, wherever audiobooks are sold.

    //The Wire//2300Z February 6, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: USAID DISCLOSURE SCANDAL CONTINUES. MINOR AIRCRAFT COLLISION AT SEA-TAC.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Greece: Earthquakes continue as before, and increase in magnitude. Most of the earthquake clusters remain centered to the northeast of the volcanic island of Santorini. A state of emergency has been declared as the island has experienced around 7,700 earthquakes over the past week.Philippines: Overnight a US government-affiliated aircraft crashed in Maguindanao del Sur, resulting in the deaths of four American crew members. One active duty soldier, and three US military contractors were killed in the crash. AC: Details have been hard to come by as this aircraft was an Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) asset. Anytime a spy plane crashes, the details regarding the circumstances of the crash will usually not be disclosed. The aircraft itself was a heavily-modified Beechcraft King Air 350 registered as N349CA. -HomeFront-Washington D.C. - The White House has walked back President Trumps claims on his plan for Gaza, with the White House stating that the United States will not be sending boots on ground to achieve his goals. The White House also stated that the American taxpayer will not be funding this venture. Yesterday afternoon SECDEF Hegseth reaffirmed American support to Israel, and stated that "all options" are being considered with regards to American involvement in the Middle East.Also in Washington, scandal continues to develop regarding the audit of USAID, and the various entities that this agency was sending tax dollars to.Washington: A minor aircraft collision was reported in Seattle, as a Japan Airlines aircraft collided with a Delta aircraft while taxiing. Japan Airlines Flight 68 struck the tail of Delta Flight 1921 last night, resulting in minor damage to both aircraft. AC: No injuries were reported and this appears to be a fairly common aviation mishap.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Although no formal evacuation orders have been issued in Santorini, many Greeks have departed the island voluntarily. Local media reports that roughly 12,000 people have already left the island, even though most of the earthquakes have been comparatively small. Nevertheless, local concern is beginning to mount, leading to many locals making preparations just in case.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

    'Saint Antony was the son of poor Christians from Athens. In order to help his parents, he entered the service of an Albanian Muslim at the age of twelve. In 1770, during the repression which followed the Greek rising in the Peloponnese, his masters sold him to some Turks, who tried in vain to convert him. He was then sold to a succession of five harsh, fanatical masters, but he remained unshaken in the Faith, and was bought at last by a Christian coppersmith in Constantinople. Having been warned one night in a dream that he would receive God's help to obtain the glory of martyrdom, he was recognized next day in the street by one of his former masters, who began shouting to the passers-by that the young Christian was his runaway slave and an apostate from Islam. Antony was dragged to the court amid much commotion. He confessed that he was willing to die a thousand deaths for the love of Christ. "You would become a Christian more easily than you could make me deny my Christ," he told the judge. Unable to persuade the Saint to feign conversion in order to save his life and under pressure from false witnesses, the judge reluctantly committed him to prison. Antony consoled the other Christian prisoners, gave away what little money he had to the poor, and wrote to thank his master for all his kindnesses and through him asked the forgiveness of all Christians and besought the prayers of the Church.   'As the vizir delayed passing sentence, the Saint's accusers made a complaint to the Sultan Abdul Hamid who, fearing a breach of the peace, ordered his immediate execution. The valiant sixteen-year-old went joyfully to the place of martyrdom. He offered his neck to the executioner, who struck him lightly three times to see if the pain would make him yield. Then, finding that he remained steady, he cut his throat like a slaughtered lamb.' (Synaxarion)

    The English noun gospel comes from the Anglo-Saxon term godspell, meaning "glad tidings." It is translated from the Greek evangelion, which means "good message." Originally, the word was related to news of military triumph. –https://www.gotquestions.org/gospel-good-news.htmlWhile mainstream Christianity has a relatively narrow definition or view of the Good News, e.g., limited to the New Testament and only relating to the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, a broader, more scriptural perspective exists that is less taught, if taught at all.Didn't the prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and others preach good news? What was their good news about?If the Good News is only about the death, burial, and resurrection of Messiah Yeshua, why did He teach and preach about it? What did He say is the Good News?Is the Good News about the Messiah, or is it of the Messiah?As is his usual practice, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings a more profound understanding to this topic by allowing scripture to define itself just as he has done in his other teachings.• Opener• 2 Corinthians 4 Review• 2 Corinthians 5:1 – A house not made with hands• 2 Corinthians 5:6 – At home in the body - absent from the Master?• 2 Corinthians 5:8 – Absent from the body?• 2 Corinthians 5:9 – To be pleasing to Him• 2 Corinthians 5:10 – You are in control of this• Ephesians 1:13 – Key verse• Ephesians 1:1 – Context• Ephesians 1:2 – Grace; unmerited favor?• Ephesians 1:3-4 – Set-apart in love• Ephesians 1:5-8 – It's His good pleasure• Ephesians 1:9 – Elohim uses teachers• Ephesians 1:10-11 – The Below aligning with the Above• Ephesians 1:11 – According to the counsel of His desire• Ephesians 1:11 – Ordained?• Ephesians 1:12-14 – We are the praise of His honor [esteem]• Ephesians 1:15 – Good job!• Ephesians 1:17 – A spirit of wisdom and revelation • Ephesians 1:19-23 – The same power that worked in Messiah…• Ephesians 2:1-3 – You were dead!• Ephesians 2:4-5 – Made alive together with Messiah• Ephesians 2:6-7 – Are we sitting in the heavenlies?• Ephesians 2:8 – That's the gift!• Ephesians 2:9 – Not by works?• Ephesians 2:10 – We are His workmanship• Ephesians 2:11-12 – We were excluded?• Ephesians 2:13-14 – Brought near by the blood of Messiah • Ephesians 2:15-16 – The dogma, not the Torah• Ephesians 2:17 – Peace restored• Ephesians 2:18-19 – Spiritual bigotry• Ephesians 2:19-22 – Being built together into the dwelling of ElohimListen to the Afterburn tomorrowSubscribe to take advantage of new content every week.To learn more about MTOI, visit our website, https://mtoi.org.https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwidehttps://www.tiktok.com/@mtoi_worldwide You can contact MTOI by emailing us at admin@mtoi.org or calling 423-250-3020. Join us for Shabbat Services and Torah Study LIVE, streamed on our website, mtoi.org, YouTube, and Rumble every Saturday at 1:15 p.m. and every Friday for Torah Study Live Stream at 7:30 p.m. Eastern time.

    Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com  The gospel is about sacrifice. It came as a sacrifice, it lived a sacrifice, it ended in a sacrifice… if we do not share the gospel in a sacrifice mindset (that it will cost us) then we will never share the gospel - we will just share salvation. i.e. I want you to know about Jesus, but only if it is comfortable for me to share it and it does not cost me anything… that is anti Gospel. - im only sharing it because its comfortable to me… its not really about the gospel- its about me… uh oh!      The highest form of selfishness is a man content to go to heaven alone! JC Ryle     V. 16 ASHAMED epaischunomai: To be ashamed, to feel shame Original Word: ἐπαισχύνομαι Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: epaischunomai Pronunciation: ep-ahee-skhoo'-nom-ahee Phonetic Spelling: (ep-ahee-skhoo'-nom-ahee) Definition: To be ashamed, to feel shame Meaning: I am ashamed, am ashamed of. Word Origin: From the preposition ἐπί (epi, meaning "upon" or "on") and the verb αἰσχύνω (aischynō, meaning "to be ashamed”).   In sum, 1870/epaisxynomai ("dishonor") refers to being disgraced, bringing on "fitting" shame that matches the error of wrongly identifying (aligning) with something. I.e. I will not be the one who identifies with someone who is afraid or ashamed to share the gospel.   BUT - epaisxýnomai (from epi, "on, fitting" intensifying 153/aisxynō, "disgrace") – properly, I will not be like someone "singled out" because they misplaced their confidence or support. Dumb it down for me: Paul is saying I will not be the one who stands before God and is the one who was afraid or ashamed of sharing the gospel.      V. 16 POWER Meaning: (a) physical power, force, might, ability, efficacy, energy, meaning (b) plur: powerful deeds, deeds showing (physical) power, marvelous works. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb δύναμαι (dunamai), meaning "to be able" or "to have power." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H3581 (koach): Often translated as strength or power, used to describe God's creative and sustaining power. - H1369 (geburah): Refers to might or strength, often in the context of God's mighty acts. Usage: Dunamis primarily denotes power, strength, or ability. It is often used in the New The early Christians understood dunamis as the transformative power of God at work in believers, enabling them to live out their faith and witness to the world. HELPS Word-studies 1411 dýnamis (from 1410 /dýnamai, "able, having ability") – properly, "ability to perform" (L-N); for the believer, power to achieve by applying the Lord's inherent abilities. (1411 /dýnamis) is needed in every scene of life to really grow in sanctification and prepare for heaven (glorification). 1411 (dýnamis) is a very important term, used 120 times in the NT. universally, "inherent power, power residing in a thing by virtue of its nature, or which a person or thing exerts and puts forth”     The power of God - This expression means that it is the way in which God exerts his power in the salvation of people. It is the efficacious or mighty plan, by which power goes forth to save, and by which all the obstacles of man's redemption are taken away. This expression implies, (1) That it is God's plan, or his appointment. It is not the device of man. (2) It is adapted to the end. It is suited to overcome the obstacles in the way. It is not merely the instrument by which God exerts his power, but it has an inherent adaptedness to the end, it is suited to accomplish salvation to man so that it may be denominated power. (3) It is mighty, hence, it is called power, and the power of God. If is not a feeble and ineffectual instrumentality, but it is “mighty to the pulling down of strongholds,” 2Co 10:4-5. It has shown its power as applicable to every degree of sin, to every combination of wickedness. It has gone against the sins of the world, and evinced its power to save sinners of all grades, and to overcome and subdue every mighty form of iniquity,   Dumb it down for you… it is the super steroid for your life.   Jesus shares the gospel and moves in power The disciples in Mark 9, 10 share the gospel and move in power In Acts they share the gospel and move in power Power for every occasion- miracles, healing, financial, wisdom, protection, relationships…

    The first episode of 2025 of A brush with… features a conversation with Linder, who discusses her influences—from writers to musicians and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped her life and work. Born Linda Mulvey in Liverpool in 1954, she is best known for her photomontages, made from images found in books and magazines across six decades. They bring together sex and sexual politics, glamour and grit, satire and seduction. Since emerging in the punk era of the late 1970s—a culture whose DIY approach and unflinching attitude to society her work embodies—Linder has reinvigorated a radical tradition of avant-garde art-making while developing a singular voice. She reflects on the particularities of her native Britain while also addressing global struggles and themes, including feminism and class politics. She discusses her use of the scalpel as a “magic wand” in cutting up print material, her journey to Delphi and recent use of ancient Greek and Roman imagery, her fascination with Ithell Colquhoun and other Surrealists, the impact of reading Germaine Greer and the Brontës, how she has used the Playboy magazines once owned by the Brutalist architects Alison and Peter Smithson in a new body of work, and how she connects the Indian musical instruments, the dilruba and taus, with Barbara Hepworth. Plus, she answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: “What is art for”?This episode contains descriptions of abuse and sexual violence.Linder: Danger Came Smiling, Hayward Gallery, London, 11 February-5 May; a version of the show, curated by Hayward Gallery Touring, will travel across the UK in 2025 and 2026: Inverleith House, Royal Botanic Gardens, Edinburgh, 23 May-19 October; Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea, 7 November 2025-8 March 2026; Grundy Art Gallery, Blackpool, 27 June-20 September 2026.

    Daily Dose of Hope February 5, 2025 Day 4 of Week 45 Scripture:  Ezekiel 40-42; John 14 Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional and podcast that complements the New Hope daily Bible reading.  It's Recharge day so I hope we see you tonight at 6:30pm in the Garage.   Our Old Testament reading is Ezekiel 40-42.  Here, we begin to see how God's presence is about to return to his temple.  We find Ezekiel being given a tour (in a vision of course) of a new temple.  It's a majestic temple as well, bigger than the one built by King Solomon.  Is this the way the temple will look in the new Jerusalem when Jesus returns?  Some people say yes.  In fact, some people would say these chapters offer blueprints of sorts.  But most people believe that we have a tremendous amount of symbolism here, as we do in the book of Ezekiel as a whole.  Yes, God's presence will be with his people.  It will be amazing and majestic.  But we don't really have the words to articulate what that will be like.    Our New Testament reading is John 14.  Let's focus on the first portion on the chapter.  This is such a great interaction between Jesus and Thomas.  The disciples are experiencing a lot of anxiety.  Jesus has just told them he's going away but he is trying to reassure them.  Jesus is like, I'm on my way to get your room ready.  I'll be coming back to get you, trust me.  But anyway, you already know the way.  And Thomas is like, “Umm…actually, I don't know the way, is there a map or something?”  And that's when Jesus says, “You do know the way because I am the way.  The only way to get to my Father is through me.”  And he reiterated what he has been teaching them, to know Jesus is to know the Father.  If you have seen Jesus, then you have seen the Father. When Jesus says, “I am the way,” he doesn't say “I am a way.” How the Greek sentence is constructed makes it absolutely clear and irrefutable that Jesus is making an exclusive claim here.   He is basically saying, don't go looking to anyone else to point you in those directions, because I am the only one who can!” Well, that feels pretty exclusive, doesn't it?  Yes, it is.  And exclusivity makes a lot of us feel uncomfortable.  So, let's dig deeper.  What other Scriptures point to the exclusivity of Jesus? 1.     John 3:16-18 (Jesus speaking to Nicodemus),  For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.  2.     John 3:36 (later in the conversation)- Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on them. 3.     Acts 4:12 (Peter, speaking before the Jewish ruling council) –  Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” 4.     Rom. 10:9 – If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 5.     I John 5:12 - Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.   And there are many others but I'm going to stop there for now.  I do believe in looking at the full narrative of Scripture – if we look at all of the Bible – it points to Jesus as the way to heaven.  I've searched to see if the Bible allows for other options, possible openings, that might allow for another way and I haven't found any.  There are some things in the Bible in which there is tension – it says this but it also says this – and we have to really dig and pray and interpret.  But there isn't tension here at all --- Scripture clearly points to Jesus as the Son of God, the fulfillment of God's promise from Gen to Rev, and the only way to the Father, the only way to receive salvation, the only way to heaven.    And that makes logical sense to me.  Why would Jesus have voluntarily died on a Roman cross for us if he was just one option among many to provide a way to be saved?  If there were other ways to receive salvation and get to God, then why would Jesus even need to do all that?  Why would Christians throughout the ages have needed to stand their ground and lose their lives?  Why would Christians around the world today be risking their lives to follow Christ?  Some may say they are disillusioned but I personally don't believe so.  If we believe that Jesus rose from the dead, proving his divinity, proving he is Lord of all – then that means we have to also believe everything he said.  We can't pick and choose.  I'm not a scholar, you guys, but in my mind and heart, all of this points to the truth that Jesus is the only way.  So, that being the case – then other questions come to mind.  And here is where it often gets hard for us – more difficult questions.  What about all of the people who don't believe in Jesus?  If those who believe in Jesus have everlasting life, then what about those who don't believe in Jesus?  Are they doomed to hell?  How could a loving God allow this?  What about those who may have heard of Jesus, but did not really understand who He was? What about those who have never even heard the name of Jesus?  We have read Scripture already that speaks to those who reject Jesus face the wrath of God; those who don't have Jesus, don't have life.  Those who don't profess faith in Jesus will not experience salvation.  They won't spend eternity with God.  Both the OT and the NT speak about a place called hell.  The word most often translated as hell in the New Testament is the Greek word “gehenna.” Jesus uses this word 11 times. The literal translation of the word is the Valley of Hinnom (“ge”+“hinnom”). The Valley of Hinnom was Jerusalem's landfill where people burned their trash. So when Jesus speaks about burning in hell, he's using this image. Jesus' hell is a place devoid of hope and love, a place where God's will is absent, separate from the community.  And Jesus, throughout the Gospels, does speak of people making choices that land them in hell.  To deny the existence of hell is to deny the words of Jesus.  Period.  I've witnessed arguments about whether hell is a real place, whether hell is hot, whether it's cold, you name it.  I think we could probably argue those things until we are blue in the face and it isn't productive.  What we know:  Hell is a Godless place.  It is a place where God is not.  What I know is that God dearly loves us, he dearly loves all people and he desires for all people to know him and have a relationship with him.  But this is the thing, even though we were created to be near God, God does not force us or make us love him back or even force us to be near him.  So hell exists because just as some choose to be with God, some will choose to be without God.  I've had to kind of reconcile this for myself.  God is not mean.  God is incredibly loving.  He does not send people to hell.  He allows people to make the choice – a lifetime and eternity with God OR without God.  Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life.  Do you believe this. Blessings, Pastor Vicki

    Wednesday, 5 February 2025   Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? Matthew 7:10   “And if fish he may ask, not serpent he will give him?” (CG).   In the previous verse, Jesus questioned His disciples, asking what man would give his son a stone when he had asked for bread. He now repeats the sentiment to emphasize His words, saying, “And if fish he may ask, not serpent he will give him?”   Both creatures are introduced into the New Testament. The first is the ichthus (or ichthys), fish. For several of the disciples, this would be a personal example because they were fishermen in the Sea of Galilee. The second is the ophis, snake. It is derived from optanomai, to appear or gaze. The connection is the idea of sharpness of vision.   The snake is used not only to describe the creature but also sly or cunning people, such as in Matthew 23:33, and of the devil (Satan) as in 2 Corinthians 11:3 and elsewhere.   The thought Jesus presents is similar to the first because, depending on the fish, it can somewhat resemble a snake. It would be a close but mocking response to the request. Further, a snake is unclean according to the Mosaic law. Therefore, if this is all he had to eat, it would cause the son to purposefully violate the dietary prescriptions found in Leviticus 11:42 –   “Whatever crawls on its belly, whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet among all creeping things that creep on the earth—these you shall not eat, for they are an abomination.”   Life application: The word translated as fish, ichthus (ichthys), eventually became the symbol of Christianity. Today, the “Jesus fish” is seen on the back of cars and other conspicuous places as displayed by Christians.   The fish had a prominent role in Jesus' ministry because He had called some of His disciples out of their boats as they fished, asking them to follow Him. He used fish in the multiplication of food when feeding the five thousand and then the four thousand. In fact, the two things Jesus uses in His example in Matthew 7, loaves of bread and fish, are the two things He used in the feeding of these masses.   Jesus also used the fish to teach Peter a lesson concerning who He is in Matthew 17:27. His miracles, where an abundance of fish was gathered in the nets of the disciples, are taken as a metaphor for the abundance of souls that would be saved through Him. It is because of these things that the fish took on the symbol of Christianity.   But along with that, the word ichthys, was turned into an acrostic to refer to Jesus –   Ἰησοῦς Χριστός, Θεοῦ Υἱός, Σωτήρ (Iēsous Christos, Theou Yios, Sōtēr), which translates into English as “Jesus Christ, God's Son, Saviour.”   Hence, this is the reason why there are often Greek letters inside of the ichthus fish on the back of cars and elsewhere.   Unfortunately, variations of the Jesus Fish, such as the Darwin Fish, have arisen in modern times to mock Christianity. Despite this, displaying the Jesus Fish is something we can do to let the world know that we are Christians.   Lastly, the Roman Catholic tradition of not eating meat (Catholics 14 and older) on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, as well as Fridays during lent, and other Fridays, and instead eating only fish, is nonsense. It is unscriptural and has nothing to do with faith in Jesus Christ –   “One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.” Romans 14:5, 6   We are so grateful to You, O God, for the freedom we have in Jesus. We are not bound to the Law of Moses, and we are not subject to the inane doctrines of aberrant sects and denominations that refuse to accept the grace and freedoms revealed in Your word. Thank You that through Christ Jesus we can live for You and worship You in spirit and truth. Amen.

    What are some of the significant contributions that Greece has made to the world of wine? How does the Greek volcanic island of Santorini produce wines of stunning depth and freshness at the same time? How are Greek wines shifting the perspective on what's possible for warm climate wines? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Master of Wine Konstantinos Lazarakis. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Giveaway Two of you are going to win a copy of his terrific book, The Wines of Greece. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose two people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights What are some of the significant contributions to wine made in Greece? What are some of the unique and complex terroirs found in Greece for wine production? How do Santorini's wines achieve both incredible depth and freshness? What are the hallmark characteristics of Assyrtiko grapes, and how does the wine pair with food? How does the tasting experience of Moschofilero compare with that of Assyrtiko? What should you know about Greece's flagship red grapes, Agiorgitiko and Xinomavro? Which regions are a must-try in your exploration of Greek wines? How was Retsina developed, and why does Konstantinos think it's one of the greatest hopes for the Greek wine industry? How did the Greek financial crisis impact and improve the Greek wine industry? What are some of the opportunities and challenges in the future of Greek wines?   Key Takeaways As Konstantinos observes, Greece was not the first to make wine or even the first to have a God that is dedicated to wine, but we did a lot of things for the first time: the first appellations or regions, sommeliers, wine writers and tastings. For the Greek symposia, the whole format of consuming wine was essential in making sure that symposia were an amazing celebration of the human intellect, and the bringing together of ideas. Konstantinos explains that because Santorini is a volcanic island it has a young soil that's coarse. The vines grow on their own roots, but above ground, it's very windy, extremely hot, so the vines have to kept low on ground to capture a little humidity and be protected from the wind. They trained these vines as baskets by weaving the vine canes over years. Everything that is on the periphery is torn apart by the wind, but then you have only the middle that survives. Every about 30-40 years, the basket gets too bulky, so it's chopped apart and a new cane from the old root system starts a new basket. The root system is four hundred years old. For context, he adds, four centuries ago, Bordeaux was a swamp. Konstantinos says that many people believe that a cool climate wine is superior to a warm climate one. But warm climates can produce amazing wines. Greece has a lot of places that are cold, even more so than the Loire Valley in France. Over the years, the Greeks selected grapes with full flavors at lower levels of alcohol.   About Konstantinos Lazarakis MW Konstantinos Lazarakis MW is the first person in Greece to have passed the notoriously difficult Master of Wine exams. He is the author of Wines of Greece, published by Academie du Vin. As well, he serves as the President of Wines & Spirits Professional Center, General Manager of Aiolos Wines and CEO of Wine Wonders.   Bonus Interview Highlights – Matt Cauz How do I distinguish between sexist, sexy, and sexual writing? What are some strategies you can try to avoid using wine as a coping mechanism? What trends are emerging around generational differences in wine consumption?

    Jesus is teaching beside the Sea of Galilee when the crush of the crowds prompts him to climb aboard St. Peter's boat and request the soon-to-be-apostle to shove off from shore. Little does Peter know that this is only Our Lord's first request. We'll spend our episode exploring the ins and outs of fishing on the Sea of Galilee and we'll get our hands dirty in the original Greek so as to immerse ourselves into the full emotion of the exchange. Finally, we'll round out our discussion by diving into the Old Testament context for Peter's commissioning as a “fisher of men.” (Mass Reading for Feb 9, 2025) /// Join Katie's Jubilee Pilgrimage to Rome & Assisi: https://kptz.io/rome Registration is closing this March!

    Before we get to our featured conversation this week, I feel compelled to share my annual grievance with you. Again. What is this annual grievance you may ask. It is the endless and ridiculous list of “trends”that many love to create and share at the end of and into the beginning of every new year. Did you see them this year? They looked a lot like last years didn't they? Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. Monogram - It's the details that define Monogram ThermaSol - Redefining the modern shower experience. Without steam, it's just a bathroom. Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home!  - Where service meets excellence TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep They did. They always do. Now listen, I'm not trying to call anyone out. Embarrass anyone. And, while I am going to point out a few of the ones that caught my attention, and post links in the show notes so you can see them for yourself, I am going to say this again so you understand why I am so non-plussed by the annual barrage of opinions and predictions. It's because they are based on no real data, only conjecture. Here are a few examples; House Beautiful and their Design Trends of 2025 article dated 12.30.2024.  Some things you will see in 2025 include… Kitchens Packed with Color Sculptural Lighting “Drenching” Dramatic Drapery Art Deco Era Antiques Moody Hues Cottage Core Gardens Immersive Bathrooms This all sounds fine, right? But keep in mind that what ends up happening is that clients who are new to this will now ask push designers for this because it came out in a well-respected magazine. The people who pick up on this are “influencers”, those with a large following and very little industry knowledge. Just to break this down a bit, “kitchens packed with color” sounds great until a skilled designer has to employ this strategy with a lifespan of 15-20 years. With a “color of the year”, promoted by 5-6 different companies, all with different ideas as to what that color of the year will be, this is not really feasible. And let's all just remember for a moment that Avocado Green and harvest Gold owned the 1970's and reviled in the 1980's. But, for every season, am I right? There was even an article written in May of 2021by the BBC touting the return of Avocado Green to contemporary interiors. The interesting thing about this, the article I'm referencing was incredibly well written, sourced and delves deep into the science and theory of color choices. But the headline… “Why ‘avocado green' is back for interiors” does imply that the color was back en vogue in 2021. I don't think is was and if it did pop up here and there, not many are still touting it today. And if a client says to their designer that they are going all-in on this and buy Avocado Green appliances, cabinetry or tile, they will be living with it for quite some time. This idea of “drenching” seems completely misaligned with the very nature of interior design. From a vernacular stand point, “drenching” means to get something completely wet, yet color drenching is described as painting every surface in the same shade. Sooooo, monochromatic. Why not just say that? It's funny really, monochromatic ideas have been in popular design styles for centuries and can be referenced back to the Greek word, monochromos, meaning, to have one color. While I have read articles that source the French word envelopper, or “to wrap” with the idea for color drenching. And yet, every year there are many who also tout the end of the white kitchen. But white kitchens also appear on many of the trends you will find for every coming year. The white kitchen is also a sort of “drenching”, is it not? Just to put a finer point on this idea, in November, 2023, an article appeared in Vogue entitled, “2023's Latest Interior Design Trend? Matchy-Matchy Rooms”.

    "If you step into the Bible, you'll find the word gentle in several places. If you look at the Greek language, something more robust reveals itself. The Greek word for gentleness is pra - ooh - tayce. Historically, this word originally described the space existing between having a hot temper … and having no temper at all. I think this definition gets at something our usual understanding of gentleness misses. Gentleness only exists when there's an opportunity not to be gentle — when harshness is an equally available option. To be kind or tender or mild-mannered is gentleness … IF you have the ability to NOT be kind or NOT be tender or NOT be mild-mannered. So, what I'm saying is this: the foundation of gentleness is actually power. It's authority. It's the ability to use force — but choosing to restrain … to be gentle. A gentleman is someone with strength – someone who could do harm – but instead treats people with gentleness and kindness. Let me show you how this plays out in our lives."

    Before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. — Revelation 7:9 God gave the apostle John a magnificent vision of a diverse multitude—people from every part of the human family—forming a great chorus worshiping the Lord and proclaiming his victory over evil. This vision portrays what believers in Christ have been laboring and praying for through the centuries. The goal of God's mission in Christ is that people from all over the earth will receive his salvation and worship him. But this great chorus is not yet complete. Not all of God's people are gathered in; many are missing. There are still language groups and people groups that have no followers of Jesus. The original Greek word used for “nation” in the New Testament is ethnos, from which our word “ethnic” comes. Sometimes ethnos refers to major countries in Bible times, like Egypt, Syria, and Persia. Sometimes it is translated as “Gentiles,” referring to non-Jewish groups of people. And sometimes ethnos refers to smaller cultural and linguistic groups. One country can include many such groups. So even though there are Christians in every country on earth today, there are still many people and language groups that have no Christians. As Jesus' followers, we need to bring the gospel (the good news of Jesus) to them. What role does God want you to play in this task? Use me, Lord, in your great mission to bring people from every group on earth into your family. In Jesus, Amen.

    Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day

    Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for February 3, 2025 is: sarcophagus • sahr-KAH-fuh-gus • noun Sarcophagus refers to a coffin, and specifically a stone coffin. // The crypt under the abbey church contains the sarcophagus of the monastery's founding abbot. See the entry > Examples: "Experts found as many as 1,035 artwork fragments, as well as one hundred graves increasing the cathedral's total record to more than five hundred burials. Many of the coffins, along with scattered bones, remain unidentified. A lead sarcophagus that may belong to the poet Joachim du Bellay is among one of the more notable burials." — Francesca Aton, ARTNews, 4 Dec. 2024 Did you know? Body-eating coffins might sound like something out of a horror film, but flesh-eating stone? The latter plays a role in the etymology of sarcophagus; it is the literal translation of líthos sarkóphagos, the Greek phrase that underlies the English term. The phrase traveled through Latin between Greek and English, taking on the form lapis sarcophagus before being shortened to sarcophagus. It's not clear whether the ancient Romans believed that a certain type of limestone from the region around Troy would dissolve flesh (and thus was desirable for making coffins); that assertion came from Roman scholar Pliny the Elder, but he also reported such phenomena as dog-headed people and elephants who wrote Greek. Regardless, there is no doubt that the ancient Greek word for the limestone traces back to a combination of sárx, meaning "flesh," and a derivative of phagein, a verb meaning "to eat."
