Where do Scottish clan slogans come from—and are they the same as heraldic mottos? In this episode, we explore the Gaelic origins of the word "slogan," meaning "army shout," and how these cries functioned in Highland warfare. While many Highland clans had distinctive battle slogans, not all did, and Lowland examples are even rarer. We'll also untangle the confusion between slogans and formal mottos found in coats of arms.

This week, we took a break from Haggai and our Whole Heart series to hear a message on prayer from our Student Pastor, Ryan Oakes. Drawing from Philippians 4, Ryan reminded us that prayer is not about getting everything we ask for, but about being with God in every moment and bringing our honest selves before Him. He challenged us to let go of our desire for control and trust that, while God may not always change our circumstances, He promises a peace that guards our hearts.

On today's program, we're talking to incoming Highland and WACO Superintendent Spencer Lueders about the transition and his first meeting with the Highland school board.

This week Nick Averwater continues his conversation with Faith Serna, Assistant Band Director and Color Guard Coordinator at Highland High School in Highland, Arkansas. The Highland School District serves several small towns in north central Arkansas, and Faith grew up in the district.In the last episode, Faith talked about starting, or improving, color guard in a marching band, but in this second part of the conversation we'll switch directions and learn more about her first job in music education as band director in a very small school district in McCrory, Arkansas, a town of 1,500 people, located 70 miles northeast of Little Rock. We'll hear about the challenges she faced early on as the high school band director, and how she was able to more than triple the size of the program in the three years that she was there.Our conversation was recorded in the Fall of 2024. We've broken it up into two episodes, and this is part two.

In this episode of Spirit Box, I had the pleasure of speaking with folklorist and writer Scott Richardson-Read the brilliant mind behind Cailleach's Herbarium. The focus of today's chat is Scott's new book 'Mill Dust And Dreaming Bread, exploring Scottish folk belief & folk magic'. Together, we explore the deep roots of Scottish folk beliefs, looking at how animistic worldviews were layered over time with Christian, Norse, and Anglo-Saxon influence. Scott introduced me to the Gaelic concept of Dùthchas—the inherited right to place and belonging—and we discussed its significance in shaping Highland identity and political history. We also touched on the shared rhythms of Irish and Scottish Gaelic, the legacy of Alexander Carmichael and the Carmina Gadelica, and the enduring power of charms and spoken magic. One story that really stood out was that of St. Columba lending out his sacred book, only to burn it upon its return—a tale that sparked a discussion about healing, miracle-working, and the threads of folk magic that persist beneath the surface of Christianity. Through it all, Scott painted a vivid picture of a world where people lived in deep, reciprocal relationship with land, weather, ancestors, and the unseen. In the Plus show we ventured deeper into the mythic and cosmological territory of his book. We talked about the Three Worlds, the Primordial Twin, and how these ancient ideas mirror spiritual systems across the globe. We explored the notion of a pact between realms, the sacred nature of hospitality, and what it means to live in a world where everything is animate and interconnected. One of the most fascinating parts of the Plus Show was our discussion on the origins of spoken healing charms—those poetic, potent utterances passed down through families to stop bleeding, mend bones, or ward off illness. Scott spoke beautifully about how these charms carry ancestral knowledge, and I shared stories of people I know who still use them today. We also talked about the Cailleach, the powerful old woman of Gaelic tradition—part ancestor, part deity—who shapes weather and land and who remains a potent figure in both lore and personal practice. Scott spoke about how the Cailleach features in his work and how she represents the deep animism and ecological awareness at the heart of Scottish folk cosmology. We closed our conversation reflecting on the deep-time resonance of folklore—from the Milky Way as the Path of the White Cow to the sacred symbolism of rivers, straw, and cows. This wasn't just a discussion about stories; it was about remembering who we are, where we come from, and how we might live again in right relationship with the world around us.

In this week's message, Pastor John Durham continues our Whole Heart series, teaching from Haggai 2:10–19. He emphasizes that righteousness doesn't come through proximity to holy things but through an internal transformation by God's grace. This grace is powerful, rooted in His character, and can not be earned by our own merit.

Im ersten regelmäßigen Format unseres Podcasts, der "Wundertüte", stellen wir uns gegenseitig seltene oder exotische Motorräder vor, die uns faszinieren, für die wir gerne eine Lanze brechen würden und die wir vielleicht auch gerne in der Garage hätten. Wir sprechen aber auch über Motorräder, die eigentlich viel zu schade sind, um sie so einzusetzen, wie sie gedacht waren. Denn die Seltenheit, egal ob durch eine von vornherein geplante Kleinserie oder durch ein geflopptes Konzept, bringt auch viele Nachteile mit sich: Teils absurd hohe Gebrauchtpreise, schwierige Ersatzteilverfügbarkeit, manchmal auch wenig Händlersupport und fehlende Wartungsunterlagen. In der Fortsetzung des Formats stellen MOTORRAD-Podcaster Ferdinand Heinrich-Steige und PS-Chef Johannes Müller wieder (nicht vorher abgesprochene) Modelle vor und sind dabei teilweise wieder bei absoluten Exoten gelandet. Dabei gab es auch in dieser Folge wieder mehr zu erzählen als gedacht, weshalb wir diese Wundertüte wieder in der Mitte aufteilen mussten. Teil Zwei (bzw. die Wundertüte 5b) folgt demnächst! Damit ihr genauso überrascht seid, verraten wir an dieser Stelle wieder nicht, welche Motorräder zur Sprache kommen. P.S. Trotz des sehr positiven Feedbacks sind wir auch nach den weiteren Folgen auf eure Rückmeldung gespannt: podcast@motorradonline.de Links zu dieser Folge und kleiner Spoiler auf die erwähnten Modelle: Die sehr gute Doku von „KRANKiT“ zu Highland: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrD5jyLb7dI [Werbung] Mit unserem Partner SW-MOTECH erlebst du die perfekte Fusion aus Qualität, Stil und Funktion – passend zu deinem Motorrad.

In this message from Haggai 2:1–9, Pastor Jeremy Daniels reminds us that while the present may seem small compared to the past, God's presence and promises call us to hope. We are encouraged to look up, look back, and look forward—trusting that the future glory God is preparing far surpasses what came before.

Dreaming of a bougie homesteading lifestyle? Tune in to this week's Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast as host Carol Morgan chats with Jennifer and Rob Beecham of Folia Group about Sanctuaire Farms — a modern farmstead living community in Ball Ground, Georgia, offering 5- to 15-acre homesites designed for sustainable, regenerative living. A Modern Take on Homesteading Located in Cherokee County, Sanctuaire Farms features 54 homesites across 461 acres. Each home includes five to 15 acres of land, ready to be transformed with residents' agricultural visions. Natural, rolling hills and creek-front lots offer scenic views from your front door, while onsite agricultural amenities provide ample opportunities to engage with neighbors and connect as a family. Sanctuaire Farms is thoughtfully designed by Atlanta architect, Steven Kemp. Rob Beecham said, “We are conservationists and we are developing a sustainable, regenerative community that is very green-centered.” After the COVID-19 pandemic, the Beecham family purchased a 122-acre plot in Ball Ground and decided to start fresh. They quickly realized they didn't need as much land and subdivided the acreage into a five-track community with friends. The connectivity of this community inspired them to create a central farm where residents could learn farming techniques together and grow as individuals. “What we found is most people moved off the farm several generations ago, and we all lost all those skills, and it's much easier to learn them in a kind of corporate community environment,” said Rob Beecham. “From that experience, we envisioned a much larger adaptation of what we were doing on our farm, and that's how Sanctuaire Farms was kind of birthed.” Agrarian Learning at The Grange In addition to its homesites, Sanctuaire Farms also showcases a 50-acre store and agrarian learning center known as The Grange, where residents can learn helpful farming and gardening practices from professionals. Currently, the Grange includes a community garden, six Highland cows and two horses. At completion, residents will enjoy a fully functioning farm with a dairy and farmer's market. “What we tell people is, you don't have to do everything on your own farm,” said Rob Beecham. “You can do the things you're passionate about and then supplement the other things you don't necessarily need to do. You can supplement by participating in our community farm. It gives you the ability to be a part-time farmer if you want.” Jennifer Beecham will oversee community events at The Grange, such as dinners, social clubs and learning opportunities. “The unique thing is we'll be open to the public,” said Jennifer Beecham. “This is not just something for the community itself; it's also for the whole community and surrounding areas, and so that other people get to enjoy the Grange itself too.” A Focus on Sustainability Sanctuaire Farms is a fully regenerative community, from its produce and animal maintenance to the construction of homesites. Residents will be expected to utilize pesticide- and chemical-free practices and invest in organic farming techniques. "We've changed our complete lifestyle of how we eat, where we shop, and where we buy our food,” said Rob Beecham. “More and more people are coming on board to understand how important this is, and we see that playing a vital role in our community and people's lives.” Life at Sanctuaire Farms When pre-sales began a few months ago, homesites at Sanctuaire Farms went quickly. The Beechams estimate that 30 homes are already accounted for, proving that homebuyers are seeking this lifestyle. The development stage will begin shortly, with sales anticipated to start at the end of this year. “We've got people that are coming in and building smaller homes that are more focused on the farming side,” said Rob Beecham. “And we have a number of folks that have purchased multiple lots and plan on building much larger, kind of grander estates.

Paul McCaffrey learned he had testicular cancer in 2015. He'd been experiencing groin pain at the time, but he didn't know how to check himself for any other signs of testicular cancer. So, Paul used the Cahonas Scotland's self-check guide and found a lump in one of his testicles. In the podcast, this testicular cancer survivor shares his treatment story for cancer, as well as sepsis and avian flu. Now, he works with Cahonas Scotland as the Community Engagement Officer, where he visits schools, workplaces, and communities throughout the country to raise awareness of the signs and symptoms of testicular cancer. He and his wife are the parents of two children: a son who plays the bagpipes and a daughter who is a Highland dancer. Listen to this episode of Don't Give Up on Testicular Cancer from the Max Mallory Foundation, where you can find other episodes of the podcast. Learn more about Cahonas Scotland and the work of Paul McCaffrey to raise awareness about testicular cancer. Send us a textSupport the showFind us on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook & Linkedin.

Varada Sethu joins Datshiane Navanagayam to talk about stepping into the iconic role of the Doctor Who companion. She shares how she went from a guest star to landing the role of Belinda Chandra, why this character feels like her most personal yet, and what it means to her to bring cultural authenticity to the Tardis. With a background in science, classical dance, and Star Wars fandom, Varada brings a fresh energy to the Whoniverse. To combat the potential exploitation of children on social media content, new safeguarding guidelines around 'child influencers' are being launched next month. Dr Francis Rees, Lecturer in Law at the University of Essex and founder of the child influencer project who has produced the toolkit, joins Datshiane to discuss. In her new memoir Where Angels Fear to Tread, humanitarian aid worker Sally Becker, who risked her life to help wounded children in war zones, recounts her life-saving missions. Sally joins Datshiane to reflect on her experiences and how becoming a mother reshaped her approach to the risks and responsibilities of her work.The ex-partner of a millionaire horse racing tipster who abused women and filmed it has warned someone could die if he is not stopped. Kevin Booth was given a worldwide travel ban after a Scottish civil court heard that he attacked his victims in an underground chamber at his remote Highland home and in foreign hotel rooms. Tammy Conner - who said she was beaten by Booth for four years from the age of 16 - has now decided to speak out in the hope that other women will come forward. Booth has described Tammy's allegations as "laughable" and said he had never been arrested, charged or convicted of domestic violence or abuse. We hear from BBC Scotland news reporter Katie Hunter.

In this episode, we explore the lesser-told story of Clan Menzies, a Highland clan known more for its diplomacy and loyalty than for bloodshed. While not the most warlike of clans, the Menzies still played a role in major conflicts of the 17th and 18th centuries—including the Jacobite Risings—sending troops when duty called. Learn about their Norman origins, their connection to Castle Menzies, and how they maintained influence in Scotland's often volatile clan landscape.

Pastor John Durham kicked off our Easter sermon series "As He Promised" with a message exploring how Old Testament prophecies in Isaiah point to Jesus as the Lamb of God. Through His silent sacrifice on the cross, He took our place, absorbing the penalty of sin. In this act, God lovingly substituted Himself for us, offering salvation to all who believe.

The Nurse, the Lie, and the $1.5 Million Motive She told her patient she had terminal cancer. But she didn't. Then she injected her with insulin and sat by while she died. This story out of Highland, Utah, doesn't need any dramatic buildup—it's already that shocking. On August 12, 2024, a 911 call came in from a man named Mark Farnsworth. He told dispatchers his niece was unconscious, gasping for air like she was drowning, and that she had “major, major health issues.” Her name was Kacee Lyn Terry, 38 years old. When police arrived at the home, they found Kacee unresponsive in a bedroom. She wasn't alone. Sitting right there next to her was 47-year-old Meggan Randall Sundwall, a registered nurse who claimed Kacee had been in that state for “a couple of hours.” She told officers that Kacee had terminal cancer and had signed a do-not-resuscitate order. She said Kacee didn't want to go to the hospital. Sounds like a complicated end-of-life scenario, right? Except everything Sundwall said was a lie. Kacee Terry never had cancer. There was no DNR. No power of attorney. No medical records backing up any of it. Her own primary care doctor confirmed it. Let's rewind. Kacee was transported to Mountain Point Hospital and paramedics noticed something didn't add up. First, they found a diabetic needle near her. But Kacee wasn't diabetic. When they checked her blood sugar level, it came back at 14—dangerously low. Anything under 40 is considered life-threatening. Doctors worked to stabilize her in the ICU, but the damage had already been done. Three days later, on August 15, Kacee was declared brain-dead and died. When doctors asked the family about her medical history, Kacee's sister told them she had terminal cancer and had been dealing with it for four or five years. That's what she had been told. But then came the hard truth from Kacee's actual doctor: there had never been a cancer diagnosis. And when the autopsy results came back, it confirmed it—no cancer, no major health problems, nothing. So where did this whole narrative come from? Enter Meggan Sundwall. Police started digging. They found a disturbing thread of over 28,000 texts between Meggan and Kacee, going all the way back to 2019. In these texts, Sundwall repeatedly talked about suicide, telling Kacee that if she were in her shoes, she'd kill herself. She even allegedly offered to “help” Kacee die—framing it as a kind of mercy killing while casually mentioning how her death could solve her money issues. Yeah. That kind of help. Then investigators discovered that shortly after Kacee's death, Sundwall deleted over 900 messages from her phone and began searching for Kacee's life insurance policy. According to the police report, Sundwall believed she was the beneficiary of a $1.5 million policy on Kacee. Let's take a moment here: this wasn't a heat-of-the-moment thing. According to Kacee's family, they'd suspected for years that Sundwall had been plotting something. And the evidence found in those text messages seems to suggest this wasn't some spontaneous act—it was calculated, groomed, and dragged out across years under the guise of friendship or caretaking. When it was time to act, Sundwall allegedly administered a fatal dose of insulin—unprescribed, unauthorized, and ultimately lethal—and just sat there while her so-called friend slipped into a coma. Police arrested Meggan Randall Sundwall on charges of first-degree aggravated murder and third-degree obstruction of justice. She's now being held in Utah County Jail without bail. Cold-blooded, deliberate, and allegedly driven by money. And all of it hidden behind a nurse's badge and a fabricated cancer diagnosis. #TrueCrime #NurseAllegations #LifeInsuranceMurder #UtahCrime Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this week's sermon, guest Pastor Jay Mathis led us to reflect on the true meaning of communion, emphasizing that it is a gift of grace, not something we create. Through faithful obedience, we remember the finished work of Christ, proclaim the power of the gospel, and examine the affections of our hearts. Communion calls us to repentance, renewal, and joyful participation in the life Christ offers.

This week, Pastor John continues in our Way, Truth, Life sermon series, as we explore the high cost of true discipleship. Jesus calls us to deny ourselves, take up our cross, and follow Him fully, with a heart fully dependent on Him.
