John Dewey is among history's most celebrated thinkers on democracy and education, yet he has often been underappreciated and misunderstood as a philosopher. This book paints a fresh portrait of Dewey as not only a reformer of schooling but also a profound theorist of human development, whose vision of the centrality of education to democracy, philosophy, and flourishing can still inspire us today. What can we learn from this great thinker as we face challenges such as widespread drudgery and disaffection, estrangement among individuals and groups, and a crisis of democracy? This book supplies the answers, offering a bold new account of Dewey as an educational theorist who is essential for our troubled times. Revealing the true scope of Dewey's educational vision, this book provides a new perspective on a neglected aspect of the philosophical tradition. Natalia Rogach Alexander's Growing People: The Enduring Legacy of John Dewey (Columbia University Press, 2025) presents an alternative canon—running from Plato to Rousseau to Du Bois—that recasts philosophy in terms of education and, in so doing, opens new pathways for social critique and the liberation of human potential. Natalia Rogach Alexander is a lecturer in philosophy at Columbia University. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature.

SUMMARY: This episode is a replay from a previous season of Ops Experts, but the conversation remains just as relevant today. Aaron Hovivian, Terryn Turner, and Savannah Newton dive into what it really means to invest in people beyond hiring—focusing on onboarding, culture, and long-term team development. Rather than treating recruitment as a finish line, the discussion emphasizes building systems and environments that help people grow once they're inside the organization. The team explores practical ways leaders can develop their people, including intentional onboarding, clearly communicating company culture, using tools like EOS and the Vision Traction Organizer, and creating shared learning experiences through book clubs, mentoring, and team huddles. The core takeaway: strong operations aren't just about processes—they're built by developing people in a way that's clear, repeatable, and aligned with where the company is going. Minute by Minute: 00:00 Introduction and Setting the Stage 02:34 Investing in People: Onboarding and Development 08:34 Communicating Company Culture and Vision 12:17 Mentoring and Developing Future Leaders 17:27 Creating a Learning Culture through Book Clubs and Huddles
Pastor Lee wants to move you past a "religious checkbox" faith where reading the Bible feels like a boring homework assignment,. Instead, he describes prayer as a vital "breathing" process: we inhale God's life and strength so that we actually have something of value to exhale to the world,. Drawing from the story of Daniel—who continued to pray even while facing a lion's den and a lifetime of captivity—he shows how persistent prayer can move heaven and impact the supernatural realm,,. This is an encouraging reminder that God isn't just trying to keep you surviving; He wants you running through life like an Olympic athlete.
In this episode of Beyond Rockets, Clark sits down with David Fernandes, Senior Vice President at Mazda Toyota Manufacturing and Group Vice President for Toyota, to go inside one of North Alabama's most transformative projects. David shares his journey from growing up near the Indy 500 and working at GM and Rolls-Royce to leading multiple Toyota plants across the U.S., South Africa, and now the joint Mazda Toyota facility in Huntsville. He explains how the $2.3B plant was built during the pandemic, how it now produces Corolla Cross and Mazda CX-50 models at incredible volume, and why they've grown to a 4,000-person workforce pulled from a 60-mile radius. David also talks about culture, career paths that don't require a four-year degree, local partnerships with schools and nonprofits, and why he believes “nothing's impossible” when a team is aligned. If you've ever driven past the massive facility near Greenbriar and wondered what happens inside, this conversation pulls back the curtain.https://mazdatoyota.comhttps://www.instagram.com/mazdatoyotamanufacturing/
We decided to check out the reviews for Corey Goode's new documentary Beyond Disclosure and they were very lacking. It also appears he may have had to recruit some of his people to leave positive reviews to try to boost his numbers. Then we check out an interview Kerry Cassidy did with George Green. Apparently, Ted Kennedy tried to have relations with his daughter, the Prime Minister of Canada is smoking crack, and the elites are growing people in cows.

In this episode of People-First Builders, host Fletcher Wimbush sits down with Jim Robinson, President & CEO of CGP Maintenance & Construction Services, leadership coach, and soon-to-be author of Lead With Empathy (co-written with Chris Voss). With 40 years in business, Jim has grown CGP into a people-first organization known for unmatched employee loyalty, multi-decade tenure, and an education-driven culture. His approach is simple but rare in the trades: grow the person first — and performance will follow. What You'll Learn from Jim in This Episode: • How leading with empathy builds long-term loyalty Jim shares how early experiences serving others shaped his leadership philosophy and taught him to meet people where they are — whether they want slow growth or rapid acceleration. • Why CGP trains not just employees, but their spouses You'll hear how CGP discovered that growing an employee too quickly without involving their partner created conflict at home — and how including significant others in conferences and education transformed entire families. • The power of structured education and the "law of anticipation" Jim explains CGP's multi-year training journey, weekly assessments, and how always giving employees something to look forward to keeps them engaged, hungry, and committed. • Why hiring for character beats hiring for skill CGP hires tradespeople based on empathy, urgency, energy, and values — not technical ability — because skills can be taught, but character can't. • How CGP fills leadership roles exclusively from within You'll learn why Jim avoids hiring competitors' employees, why the company never rehires people who leave, and how internal promotion protects culture. • CGP's lightning-fast "application to offer in 8 hours" process Jim breaks down how they evaluate values alignment, involve supervisors immediately, and create a high-urgency experience that mirrors what's expected on the job. • How CGP runs 24/7 operations with cross-trained teams Hear how they prepare people for multi-disciplinary work across nights, days, and three construction shifts — and why it creates pride, mastery, and team connection.

Peter's last letter is an exhortation to grow in the grace and knowledge of Christ as we live in the last days. After encouraging us with the certainty of the Christian life based on the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophetic Scriptures (chapter 1), and warning us about false teachers within the church (chapter 2), Peter brings this all together with the certain truth of the Second Coming of Jesus. This morning, we conclude how we are to be anticipators of the Second Coming.A REPENTING PEOPLE (vv. 9, 15)A HOLY PEOPLE (vv. 11, 14)A FORWARD-LOOKING PEOPLE (vv. 12, 13, 14)A GROWING PEOPLE (vv. 17, 18)

This episode is replublished from earlier in the season.Jacob Beaton, an Indigenous farmer from British Columbia, shares his experiences and insights on various topics. He discusses his tribal name and the matrilineal society he belongs to. Jacob talks about living in a remote area and the challenges he faced while farming and homeschooling his children. He also shares his vision for an ideal educational system and the importance of problem-solving skills. Jacob highlights the agrarian roots of First Nations people and the impact of colonial policies on Indigenous food systems. Jacob Beaton shares his experience of running a training farm and the challenges faced by Indigenous Canadians.

He shares the success and struggles of his training farm programs and the difficulties in securing funding. Jacob reflects on the benefits of raising children on the farm and the power and creativity of young people. He concludes by expressing his passion for Indigenous crops and his love for potatoes and squash. In this episode, the hosts discuss various topics in their 'Cussing and Discussing' segment. They talk about the annoyance of having boots everywhere during winter, the challenges of funding and business planning in farming, and the friction between white farmers and First Nations farmers.Key TakeawaysIndigenous nations were traditionally matrilineal societies, where names and property rights were passed through the mother's line.Living in remote areas can present unique challenges, but it also offers opportunities for self-sufficiency and a closer connection to nature.An ideal educational system should focus on building confidence, streaming individuals towards their interests, and developing problem-solving skills.First Nations people have a long history of agriculture and food production, which has often been overlooked or misrepresented.Colonial policies have had a lasting impact on Indigenous food systems, and there is a need for policy changes and greater recognition of Indigenous farming practices. Winter brings the challenge of having boots scattered everywhere in the house.Funding and business planning are difficult aspects of farming that require careful consideration.There is a need for better understanding and collaboration between white farmers and First Nations farmers to work towards common goals.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Tribal Name01:17 Matrilineal Society03:03 Location and Remote Living05:35 Growing People and Mixed Vegetable Farm07:01 Healthcare Experience in Mexico08:18 Homeschooling and Life Skills15:36 Ideal Educational System18:42 Background in Computer Science27:24 Transition to Farming35:44 Agrarian Roots of First Nations People46:36 Becoming a Lightning Rod47:17 Mystical Stereotypes48:16 Revitalizing Traditions49:32 Local Community Resiliency51:22 Roots of Racism53:13 Different Realities in the United States and Canada56:37 Challenges Faced by Indigenous Canadians59:10 Training Farm Programs01:05:21 Success and Struggles of the Training Farm01:11:29 Balancing Work and Family01:16:14 Barriers in Government Funding01:20:43 Raising Kids on the Farm01:27:20 Recognizing the Power of Children and Young Adults01:32:22 Dominating the County Fair01:33:17 Cussing and Discussing: Boots Everywhere01:35:16 Cussing and Discussing: Funding and Business Planning01:37:06 Cussing and Discussing: Friction Between White Farmers and First Nations FarmersThank you for...
