This teaching explores the theme of helplessness in our relationship with God, emphasizing its importance as a starting point for spiritual growth. Through the story of a centurion whose servant was gravely ill, it addresses three fundamental questions we often ask in moments of vulnerability: "Can you do this?" "Will you do this?" and "Do you love me?" The teaching highlights that Jesus' response to the centurion's faith illustrates God's willingness to help and His deep love for us, regardless of our perceived worthiness. Ultimately, it encourages us to embrace our helplessness as a pathway to experiencing God's love and support in our lives.

If you are looking for more peace and order in your life, you may need to look at your boundaries! This is episode #153 of #lifewithoutbaggage . This is taken from a chapter from my book "Anxiety, Depression & Helplessness: Keys to Break Free"

Loneliness has been on the rise for the past few decades and has reached epidemic status. A widespread sense of hopelessness, helplessness, and depression is also pervading today's culture. We don't know if anything can be done to save our world, nation, and communities, with many of us wanting to throw our hands in the air and hide from everything. This episode dives directly into these issues, focusing on the ways that community and group involvement can help alleviate these severe issues and effect both external and internal change. In it, LDF host Dan Wotherspoon is joined in conversation by three wonderful guests, Jordan Harmon, Laura Marre, and Becca Kearl, each of whom are working as activists in these areas.

Right after Jesus commends Mary for choosing to sit at Hisfeet to worship in Luke 10, in Luke 11:1-14 He teaches His disciples aboutprayer. God created us to worship Him and commune with Him. Worship isrecognizing Who God is and ascribing to Him His worth! It is acknowledging ourneed for Him as the only One Who can meet every need we have in our life! AndGod has given us the avenue of prayer to enter into His presence and ask Him tomeet those needs. The first mention that I can find in the Bible about prayeris in Genesis 4:25-26;“And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son andnamed him Seth, "For God has appointed another seed for me instead ofAbel, whom Cain killed." And as for Seth, to him also a son was born; andhe named him Enosh. Then men began to call on the name of the LORD.” “Then men began to call on the name of the LORD.”Whenis then? It is right after the first murder in the human race took place. Cainkilled his brother Abel and shortly afterwards God gave Adam and Eve anotherson, named Seth, who also has a son named Enosh. “Then”, immediately “men”began to pray and call on the name of the LORD for mercy and help! The worldwas already in a mess! Years ago, I'll never forget reading a book on prayer by anauthor named Ole Hallesby.  He wrote that:"Prayer is not using God for our own means but rather prayer isdependence, openness, trust, and listening." Basically, what I remember best,is his simple statement about prayer: “True prayer is a sense of helplessness”. If you asked me why people or Christians don't pray likethey should, I would answer that it is because they don't think they need topray. We are getting along just fine without praying, and we make excuses bysaying we don't have time to pray because we are so busy. But when we areoverwhelmed with a tragedy or a problem beyond our ability to deal with, we pray,or we ask others to pray for us. I've often said that there are no atheists infox holes! The real truth is that we desperately need God, His mercy,His grace, His love, His protection, His provision and His help every moment ofour lives! If only we really realize this! Over the years, one of the things I have done to remind meof this is to memorize verses on prayer like:2 Chronicles 7:14-15:“If My people whoare called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, andturn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgivetheir sin and heal their land. Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentiveto prayer made in this place.”Jeremiah 33:3:“Call to Me and I willanswer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know.”Matthew 7:7-8:"Ask, and it willbe given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. "Foreveryone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks itwill be opened.”Ephesians 3:20:“Now to Him who is ableto do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to thepower that works in us”.The Bible is full of prayer promises! Read and memorize them! I also regularly read good books and devotionals on prayerby praying people like:Dr. Elmer Towns: “Praying the Lord's Prayer for SpiritualBreakthrough”Andrew Murray: “With Christ in the School of Prayer” –Also: “Intercessory Prayer” and “God's Best Secrets”Every morning for the past four years I have been using a one-minutedevotional by E.M. Bounds called: “The Power of Prayer” –published by ChristianArt Publishers. Reading these verses and books is like “priming the pump”for my prayer life! The Holy Spirit and God's Word comes alive, and I love thetime in prayer with the Lord! Do you sense your helplessness and your need for the Lord today? God bless!

 Audio recordingSermon manuscript;I'd like to begin today by setting the scene for our Gospel reading. It is from Luke chapter 4, so this is towards the beginning of the story of Jesus. Not long before our reading Jesus was anointed with water and the Holy Spirit when he was baptized. Then he went out into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. With our reading today he has come back to Galilee and Nazareth, which is his hometown. Thus our reading today is a report of what was happening early on. People were just beginning to hear and know about Jesus. This was because of what Jesus himself was saying and doing. However, Jesus is not always believed in and accepted. At the end of our reading, the people of Nazareth wanted to throw him off a cliff. In the sermon today I'd like to look more closely at Jesus's sermon, which was based on a section of Isaiah. We will see how Jesus's sermon was applicable to the people at Jesus's time as well as being applicable to ourselves. Then I'd like to consider how and why Jesus was rejected. This, also, I think you will see, is applicable to us. So, let's take up the main point of Jesus's sermon. Here is a portion of what he read from Isaiah: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor.” When Jesus was finished reading he said, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.” Jesus was saying that this prophecy was about him. Let's look more closely at this prophecy. It says, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me.” We know that the Holy Spirit came down upon Jesus in the form of a dove at his baptism. It says, “Because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor.” This is a good, general statement about what Jesus does. The word “anointed” is the meaning of the word “Christ.” Jesus is the anointed one. The reason why he has been anointed is “to proclaim good news to the poor.” “Good news” is the meaning of the word “Gospel.” Thus we have a couple short statements that well describe Jesus: He is the anointed one, the Christ. He proclaims the Gospel, good news, to the poor. Good news is always welcome to the poor. Poverty is a major hindrance to the enjoyment of life. It prevents people from doing what they would otherwise like to do. People might not be able to buy what they want because they are poor. People might be able to go to the doctor because they are poor. If it gets really bad, people might not be able to buy food. Poverty is the lack of power to do what you want. Throughout the Gospels you can read about how Jesus helped people who didn't have the resources to help themselves. People came to him who were in the grips of evil spirits. The evil spirits made them miserable, but they lacked the power to get them out. People came to Jesus who were sick with various diseases. If any of you have had diseases that don't go away, you know how tiring and frustrating that can be. Helplessness in the face of a disease that is stronger than you can be very frightening. It might mean the death of you. Jesus helped people like that. Let me pause for a moment to point out that Jesus continues to have good news for the poor. This has not stopped, nor has it been lessened from the reports of Jesus's miracles that we hear about in the Gospels. A lot of people assume that since miracles like that aren't very common, Jesus must no longer be at work, or that his work is strictly spiritual and therefore somewhat unreal. The truth is that Jesus's work after the resurrection is stronger and more profound than anything he did before. The works Jesus does and will do are greater. Let me give you a few examples. Jesus forgives sins. Maybe you have grown cold to that idea, but maybe I can refresh it for you by a simple question: What are you able to do to make up for the evil you have done? There's nothing. You are powerless. You are poor. The good news that is proclaimed to the poor is that the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin. Or how about those diseases? How about that progressive onset of death that we call getting old? How about death itself? What can you do in the face of these things? Our options are severely limited, even with all our medical advances. The good news is that by his death Jesus defeated the power of death, and by his resurrection he opened the kingdom of heaven to all believers. Let me give you one more healing that I am especially looking forward to. What can be done with our evil minds and souls? What can be done with our anger? What can be done with our dirty minds, our coveting, meanness, sadness, apathy, coldness towards life, and a host of other evils? We are bombarded with commercials for various drugs, some of which might help somewhat, but they can't ever get to the core. The resurrection means healing not only for our bodies, but also our minds and souls. Believing in Jesus is trusting him to do things that otherwise seem impossible. So, to get back to our text: After he finished reading from Isaiah Jesus said, “I'm the fulfillment of what you heard. I preach good news to the poor. I set people free from unbreakable chains.” And, as it turns out, the people were quite receptive. “How interesting!” they said. “He speaks so well! Maybe I'll sign up for his newsletter. It's especially surprising since one of our own. He's Joseph's son, is he not?” This is the point at which everything changed in the story. The change is so abrupt that it's easy to miss. Everything was going fine, the people were enjoying Jesus, but then Jesus said some more stuff and they were no longer pleased. They started to push and shove him towards the brow of a cliff. What happened? It's Jesus's fault really. Jesus turned on them. After they started talking about him as the mere son of Joseph, Jesus knew that they would eventually be dissatisfied with him, and he told them so. Others—foreigners—would believe in him, but they would be left out in the cold. He brought up a couple Old Testament examples with the prophets Elijah and Elisha through whom God did miracles to foreigners, but not to his own people. This was what upset his hearers in his hometown. If he would have just left them be with their lukewarm admiration, they wouldn't have had such a violent reaction—at least not at that point. Jesus got pushy, and they didn't like that. This is not uncommon. There are several examples in the Bible where people responded to the Gospel by saying, “How interesting. I would not be opposed to hearing more about that in the future.” However, the message that Jesus preaches is not just a pleasant way to pass the time or to be part of a community. Jesus's message is “Repent, and believe the Gospel.” Another way of saying the same thing is: “Change your ways, change your mind, believe the good news that Jesus preaches to the powerless poor.” That is an all or nothing proposition. Either you will change your mind or you won't. Either Jesus will have all of you, or you will reject him. Jesus speaks this way in other places as well. It always make us nervous, because we are afraid to commit completely and totally. So, for example, Jesus says: “Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” That is being “all in” on Jesus. It is difficult and scary, but it makes sense if you think about it. Jesus is the difference between total bliss and freedom on the one hand or total sadness and imprisonment on the other. Either Jesus sets you from all your enemies—even those that you thought were impossible to overcome. Or you are still stuck—powerless and impoverished—in the face of things much mightier than you. It makes sense that this must be an all or nothing kind of thing. Jesus is not like an insurance policy that you stick in the filing cabinet until you have to use it. Jesus is Christ the king who is at work with the Gospel and sacraments. He is converting one soul at a time by the power of the Holy Spirit. The purpose of his kingdom is to destroy all the evil works of the devil. You don't fight wars with insurance policies. Wars involve total commitment. The people at Nazareth refused to be completely serious about Jesus. They thought he was interesting. They thought he was a good speaker. They would have told you that they were on his side! But they quit being on his side when he told them that their lukewarm approval wouldn't cut it. Eventually their lukewarm approval would turn to criticism, because then it is only a matter of time before Jesus says or does something that doesn't meet their complete approval. It is easy to apply this to ourselves. We are not unlike those Nazarenes! None of us, including myself, are comfortable “losing our lives” as Jesus puts it. None of us are as eager as we should be to take up our cross and follow him. It is much easier to believe that merely being a fan of Jesus is good enough. And, if you think about it, how convenient! We can feel good about being a fan without having to live as a soldier of the cross, denying ourselves. But this fakery only makes sense if there is no real war going on. There is a war. Jesus is our king. He is fighting against the devil and all evil, including the evil that is found in us, his Christians. The nature of the situation requires us always to repent and believe the Gospel. Repent and go “all in” with Jesus. You will not be disappointed!

Text a Message to the ShowToday we're talking to Deborah Green; she was a California dispatcher for almost 30 years and has a compelling story to tell.  She dispatched her deputies to a middle of the night call at a marijuana grow in the forests of California where they were ambushed by drug cartel gunmen.  The story itself is remarkable but I wanted you to hear this one because it's told from the point of view of the dispatcher.  In part two of the interview we will look at the aftermath of the shooting and what the fallout was for everyone involved including the dispatchers. Music is by Chris HaugenHey Chaplain Podcast Episode 104Tags:Dispatchers, Drug Cartels, CISM, Communications, Helplessness, Line of Duty Death, National Guard, Radio, Shootout, Trauma, CaliforniaSupport the showThanks for Listening!

For 17 January 2025, Memorial of St. Anthony, Abbot, based on Mark 2:1-12

We all want our kids with anxiety or OCD to believe in themselves. We want them to try hard things. We want them to push through their fears. But we only have so much control on how motivated they are to do those things to help themselves.We do, however, have control over how we show up to our child's battle with anxiety or OCD. When we over accommodate, over enable and cocoon our kids from all discomfort and failure, we rob them of the opportunity to develop resilience.It is a balancing act and it looks different for each child.In this week's episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about how to find the sweet spot of empowering our kids to face their anxiety or OCD, while not pushing them over the edge.

This episode comes in two parts. At the beginning of this year the PAS published its second installment of the Platypus Review Reader. This volume, in addition to Marxism in the Age of Trump and Chris Cutrone's recent publication The Death of the Millennial Left, are a curated selection of articles in our monthly publication spanning between 2013 and 2017. In the first segment, we present a roundtable with Platypus members involved in the curation, publication and digestion of the Platypus Review Reader 2, opening up a discussion about the long history of the Platypus Review, the denouement of the Millennial Left, and how we make this history meaningful as the Zoomer Left enters the mid-2020s. In the second segment, Pam N. sits down for an interview led by our German members, Kat and Lara, to discuss the teach-in she gave in November 2023, after the October 7th attacks, and take up the horizons of possibility of the Millennial Left, the new forms of politicization and depoliticization, and the task of political education by Platypus today. --- Platypus Review Reader 2 Roundtable links: "The Platypus Review Reader" 1 and 2 and "Marxism in the Age of Trump" are available at https://platypus1917.org/publishing/ Full table of contents for the PRR2 available at https://platypus-publishing.square.site/product/pr-reader-ii-soft-/4?si=true "Editorial Statement" for the Platypus Review: https://platypus1917.org/platypus-review/editorial-statement/ Some key articles mentioned: "Program and Utopia" Platypus Panel (July 2013) https://platypus1917.org/2013/07/01/program-and-utopia/ "What is a Political Party for the Left?"

In this episode, I explore the concept of unfairness and its impact on individuals. I share a story about a woman who felt sidelined at work, highlighting how perceptions of unfairness are often rooted in feelings of helplessness. I discuss how seeking external validation and control through labeling situations as unfair can lead to a cycle of resentment and entitlement. I caution against prioritizing equality of outcome over opportunity, as it can undermine meritocracy. Instead, I advocate for taking ownership of circumstances, focusing on personal growth, and cultivating resilience to navigate challenges successfully and break free from a victim mentality fixated on fairness.GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Also get the Truth About the French Revolution, the interactive multi-lingual philosophy AI trained on thousands of hours of my material, private livestreams, premium call in shows, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2022

In this episode, we explore the complex emotion of anger. We discuss how anger can be a suppressed emotion (and create conditions for bingeing and restricting) because sometimes, it's an emotion we are afraid to feel. On the other hand, it can be a high-energy emotion that just takes a lot of wrangling to keep regulated!   For the first time ever on this podcast, we actually discuss -- live, and without pre-planning -- a recent personal conflict between us when we went to Bournemouth for a workshop. In real time, we hope to demonstrate the importance of rupture and repair in relationships.   This episode also touches upon the interplay of helplessness and anger, the significance of understanding physical responses to emotions, and strategies for managing these intense feelings.   03:00 Revealing Today's Topic: Anger 05:23 Personal Experiences with Anger 07:31 A Moment of Conflict 10:42 Processing and Reflecting on Anger 23:05 Memory and Miscommunication 24:39 Physical Reactions to Emotional Stress 26:56 Rupture and Repair in Relationships 27:58 Personal Experiences with Conflict Resolution 30:40 Helplessness and Control 36:59 Balancing Perspectives and Finding Ease 43:18 Reflections and Closing Thoughts Learn more about Stef's 3-month Binge Recovery Program (from anywhere in the world!) beginning the 9th of September, 2024.  Join our growing support community.
