Hollywood lost a legend with the passing of Robert Duvall. On this episode, we remember one of the greatest actors of his generation — a quiet giant whose performances defined toughness, vulnerability, and authenticity on screen. From Tom Hagen in The Godfather, to Lt. Col. Kilgore in Apocalypse Now, to his Oscar-winning turn in Tender Mercies, Duvall brought gravitas to every role. Hutt and Chad reflect on his legendary career, the characters that shaped cinema history, and why his understated brilliance stood out in an era of big personalities.

This week's conversation feels especially important. I sat down with Gregg Braden, luminary, teacher, and dear friend, to explore where our world is headed and how to stay rooted in heart-led consciousness as everything accelerates around us. We talked about optimism and overwhelm in a world changing faster than ever. About discernment. About honoring what makes us deeply, beautifully human. Gregg reminds us that our divinity is not something to outsource or overlook. We are living at a turning point — and the choices we make now matter. This episode invites you to reflect: Are the tools you use affirming your divinity…or quietly replacing it? I would truly love to hear what this stirs in you. What feels empowering? What feels confronting? What feels newly possible? We are living through a defining moment in history and your awareness matters more than you know. I'm honored to walk this journey with you.   Takeaways We are living in a time where technology is increasingly integrated into our lives. Human divinity is defined as the ability to transcend perceived limitations. The chronic use of AI can diminish our creativity and cognitive abilities. It's essential to create benchmarks to assess whether technology affirms or denies our divinity. The distractions in our world are designed to keep us from recognizing our true potential. We are at a pivotal moment in history where our choices will shape the future of humanity. Honoring our humanness is crucial in the face of advancing technology. The existence of non-human intelligence has been part of our history and is becoming more acknowledged. The choices we make daily impact our sense of well-being and creativity. We must love ourselves enough to preserve our unique gifts and divinity.   About Gregg Braden Gregg Braden is a five-time New York Times best-selling author, scientist and pioneer in the emerging paradigm bridging science, social policy and human potential. From 1979 to 1991, Gregg worked as a problem solver during times of crisis for Fortune 500 companies, including Martin Marietta (now Lockheed Martin) where he worked as a Senior Computer Systems Designer, and Cisco Systems, where he became the first Technical Operations Manager in 1991. He continues problem-solving today, and his research resulted in the 2003 discovery of intelligent information coded into the human genome and the 2010 application of fractal time to predict future occurrences of past events. Gregg's work has led to 18 film credits, 13 award-winning books now published in over 40 languages, and he was a 2020 nominee for the prestigious Templeton Prize established by Sir John Templeton to honor "outstanding individuals who have devoted their talents to expanding our vision of human purpose and ultimate reality."

In this Jewish Inspiration Podcast episode (Day 128), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues the Gate of Flattery (Chanufa) from Orchos Tzaddikim, focusing on the second major aspect: praising or commending the wicked (even indirectly) in front of others.Key teachings:Praising evildoers (in their presence or behind their backs) is forbidden—even if not explicitly justifying their evil. Saying “he's a good guy” or highlighting minor good deeds risks elevating them undeservedly.This creates stumbling blocks: people may honor the wicked, envy their “success,” imitate them, or lose respect for true tzaddikim (righteous people).Honoring the righteous inspires others to follow their path and grow in Torah/yiras shamayim (fear of heaven).When tzaddikim are exalted, all creation acknowledges Hashem as Creator; when the wicked are praised, it desecrates divine service.Practical warning: avoid praising the wicked unless also mentioning their evil (to maintain balance and truth). Even neutral or positive comments can lead to misplaced honor.The rabbi ties this to current events (e.g., evil regimes on the brink) and emphasizes aligning with Hashem's values: honor the righteous, distance from flattery, and bring God-consciousness into the world through truthful speech and actions._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on January 5, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on February 17, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

As the United States celebrates its 250th birthday, it’s fitting to reflect on the biblical perspective of leadership. Daniel 2:21 reminds us that God “changes times and seasons; He deposes kings and raises up others. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.” Every president, past and present, serves under God’s sovereign hand. Recognizing their achievements, especially those guided by faith, is a way to honor God’s provision for our nation. Intersecting Faith & Life How can we honor God by recognizing the positive impact of leaders He places in office? In what ways can you personally pray for national leaders and their decisions? Reflect on moments in American history where prayer and faith intersected with leadership—how can this inspire your own spiritual practice? Do you want to listen ad-free?

He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.” - Daniel 2:21 What does it take to be President of the United States of America? As our nation prepares to celebrate its 250th birthday, we probably have a wide variety of thoughts and answers to this question. Still, throughout history, many men of various backgrounds, political leanings, religious beliefs, and stature have served as the President of the United States. Although we hold elections in the United States, we don’t want to ignore what Daniel explains: that God has a hand in who comes into leadership in our nation and that we really are not the ones in control. As we commemorate yet another President’s Day, it’s biblical to set time aside to honor the many men who have held the office, regardless of our political leanings. Being the President of the United States of America takes bravery and fortitude, as it comes with serious caution and risks to both the sitting president’s life and career. In Prayers and Presidents, author and historian William J. Federer presents statistics on the danger that being President holds: “Not every United States President left the White House on his own accord, with some dying in office and others murdered while serving. Four Presidents left office due to assassination, with the most famous and well-known account being that of the 16th President, Abraham Lincoln, and the 35th President, John F. Kennedy. Along with them, lesser-recognized presidents were murdered while in office, including 20th President, James A. Garfield, and 25th President, William McKinley. As well, 40th President Ronald Reagan and soon-to-be re-elected Donald J. Trump survived assassination attempts on their lives. Reagan, while in office, and Trum,p while on the presidential campaign trail before taking office in his second nonconsecutive term as our 47th President at 78 years old.” Regardless of the risks, from the very beginning of our nation’s birth, prayer has been recognized and encouraged by many of our Presidents, including our very first President, George Washington, who carried a well-worn pocket-sized edition of the Anglican Book of Common Prayer. Providence Forum executive director Dr. Jerry Newcombe describes how General Washington, during the Revolutionary War, felt the odds of winning were too great against us, so on July 4th, 1775—a year before independence—he sent the following order to his troops: “He requires and expects of all officers and soldiers, not engaged in actual duty, a punctual attendance on Divine service, to implore the blessing of Heaven upon the means used for our safety and defense.’" Some doubt God’s hand in America’s history and on America’s leaders. But Proverbs 21:1 reveals that, “In the Lord’s hand the king’s heart is a stream of water that He channels toward all who please Him.” As well, Proverbs 8:15 reassures us that God has a hand in who reigns and rules on earth: “By Me kings reign and rulers issue decrees that are just.” God receives glory for directing ways presidents have honored Him, such as the 33rd President, Harry S. Truman, who initiated the National Day of Prayer as an annual observance in 1952, stating: “In times of national crisis when we are striving to strengthen the foundations of peace… we stand in special need of Divine support.” In April 1970, President Richard M. Nixon urged Americans to pray for the Apollo 13 astronauts who were in crisis. As well, after their safe return, he set aside Sunday, April 19, 1970, as a National Day of Prayer and Thanksgiving. President Ronald Reagan established the National Day of Prayer on May 5, 1988, to be commemorated each year on the first Thursday in May, saying: “Americans in every generation have turned to their Maker in prayer… We have acknowledged… our dependence on Almighty God.”Following the September 11th, 2001, terrorist attacks and Hurricane Katrina, our 43rd President, George W. Bush, declared Days of Prayer. Intersecting Faith & Life: We are honoring God when we honor His accomplishments achieved through the leaders He places into office as our presidents. By recognizing their godly accomplishments, we are expressing gratitude and glorifying God for His just decrees.

Today we honor the journey of Jeremy Johnson, host of the Slutty Grace podcast, as we explore our parallel journeys of religious deconstruction. Both of us were raised in evangelical fundamentalist Christianity, and we discuss how we moved from rigid theological certainty to a more expansive, grace-centered faith. Jeremy shares his path from youth pastor to questioning core doctrines like total depravity, hell, and exclusionary salvation, catalyzed by reading Brian McLaren and experiencing diverse Christian traditions. Jeremy chats about how his childhood religious teachings shaped his self-worth, his eventual separation of faith from institutional paychecks, and his discovery that God's love might be far more generous and inclusive than he was ever taught. The conversation touches on the nature of sin, human connectedness, and the freedom found in embracing mystery and curiosity rather than doctrinal certainty.Find Jeromy at Slutty Grace Podcast!

We must treasure marriage as God does.

"It's Complicated" is our series at Fusion Christian Church on relationships. Everyone knows our relationships are messy, but not everyone knows how to navigate them. This series will provide godly, biblical principles for keeping your relationships much less complicated! In Part 4, Pastor Zac teaches about honoring your parents.We honor our parents, even when it's complicated, because it's right.Honoring your parents is what God calls us to do even when it is difficult or confusing. Sometimes understanding honor properly is easier when we define what honoring our parents is NOT. Firstly, honoring your parents does not mean blind obedience throughout your life. As a child especially, obedience is right and even necessary. As an adult, you are no longer required to blindly obey everything your parents say, but you are still called to respect them.Honor also does not mean approving of sinful or destructive choices. Sometimes your parents will do the wrong thing, you do not have to approve of that. Honor also does not require you to remain in an abusive situation or relationship. If it is not safe, you are not required to stay. Finally, honor is not compromising your own marriage, faith, or calling in order to make your parents happy. Within these limitations, do your best to show respect to your parents in all situations.Choosing respect over disrespect.This can be most difficult when you disagree with your parents. However honor does not require agreement. You can still show respect for your parents even if you end up choosing something other than what they would. It is up to us to choose to respect rather than disrespect our parents.Choosing care over caring-less.As parents age, it is important for their children to take care of them as best they can. We should not put off care of our parents onto others when we are able to do it. Showing honor and love for our parents means ensuring they are cared for in their old age.Choosing forgiveness over bitterness. Family can hurt us worse than anyone else. The wounds are deeper and harder to mend. Christians are still to forgive. Forgiving others does not mean we must allow them to hurt us again, but it does mean we cannot cling to bitterness. Unforgiveness has destroyed millions of relationships. Christians should not allow this to happen with our relationships by harboring an unforgiving attitude. Christ calls us to forgive, and if we cannot forgive our parents, who will we forgive?

Valentine's Day can stir up all kinds of longing, worry, and relational anxiety — especially if you love deeply and notice closeness and distance acutely. In this episode of Love Each Other Better, I dive into Marshall Rosenberg's famous metaphor: "I want to be flowers on your table, not oxygen for your lungs."

This content was created in 2020. Beautiful soul, this episode is a powerful moment inside the Rewrite Your Story series.

Many of the most powerful teachers of the mysteries are also fierce protectors of truth, and in this conversation, Mellissa Seaman sits down with one of the clearest voices in the modern Magdalene field: Kathleen McGowan. Kathleen is the New York Times bestselling author of the Magdalene series, a lifelong investigative researcher, and a living steward of the lands and lineages connected to Mary Magdalene. Together, they explore what it means to actually study the Magdalene, historically, spiritually, culturally, and somatically, especially in an age where AI-generated "expertise," borrowed teachings, and spiritual fan-fiction can travel faster than lived lineage. This episode is a grounding invitation for anyone who feels devoted to depth: to the land, to the elders, to the documents, to the real human story without losing the mysticism that makes Magdalene's legacy so catalytic. In This Episode, You'll Learn ✅ Why rooted teachings require time, apprenticeship, and real relationship with place ✅ How to discern historical truth from modern spiritual overlay (and why it matters) ✅ The difference between channeling insight and declaring historical fact ✅ Why land-based lineages (like southern France) require proper guidance and stewardship ✅ The importance of honoring the OG women whose scholarship cracked the story open ✅ What "dilution" does to sacred teachings, and why it echoes the very forces we're trying to heal Timestamp Highlights 00:00–03:40 — Mellissa introduces Kathleen's work and the urgency of truth 03:40–07:40 — AI, "downloads," and the rising confusion around Magdalene teachings 07:40–12:30 — Apprenticeship, embodied learning, and why elders matter 12:30–19:40 — Land stewardship, spiritual permission, and the cost of flattening lineage 19:40–26:50 — Honoring the women who opened the field + the responsibility of transmission 26:50–34:30 — "I just want the spiritual info"… and why the history is spiritual 34:30–41:40 — Magdalene as catch-all divine feminine symbol (and why that erases her) 41:40–50:24 — Integrity, devotion to truth, and Kathleen's invitation into deeper study More About Kathleen McGowan Kathleen McGowan is an internationally published author and researcher known for her decades-long devotion to Magdalene history, land-based lineage, and source-rooted spiritual teaching. Her work bridges investigative scholarship with lived, embodied transmission, bringing students into a deeper relationship with Magdalene as a real woman with a real legacy.

There is no pain more disorienting than losing a child—and no single “right” way to grieve.In Episode 58 of Female Voices: Life & Loss, hosts Teresa Reiniger and Wayna Berry come together for a deeply compassionate, honest conversation about grieving parents, whether the loss is through pregnancy, childhood, or adulthood. Drawing from personal experience and professional practice as grief coaches and therapists, they explore how grief shows up differently for mothers and fathers, why talking about children who have died matters, and how parents can find tools, routines, and support that actually help.This episode offers validation, practical tools, and gentle hope for parents navigating the unimaginable—along with reminders that healing does not mean forgetting, and grief does not follow rules.

In this episode, I connect with my dear brother Zarak Fatah for a powerful conversation about what it truly means to heal, evolve, and live wholeheartedly. Together, we explore the quiet trap of endless self-improvement and remember that life itself is the ultimate practice—a living curriculum that invites presence over perfection. Zarak shares the wisdom that emerged from a transformational plant medicine experience, opening a doorway into deeper self-inquiry, integration, and embodied leadership.We dive into the courage it takes to be radically honest in our relationships and how emotional transparency is one of the most profound acts of self-love. We reflect on the ways shame, guilt, and unresolved emotions can weigh on our vitality and longevity—and what becomes possible when we meet them with compassion, breath, and truth. This is a grounded conversation that honors both the mess and the magic of being human.From male vulnerability to the awakening of the feminine, we explore the integration of science, mystery, and consciousness—and how that synthesis returns us to wholeness. This episode is an invitation to embrace life exactly as it is, to listen for the quiet guidance beneath the noise, and to rediscover the essence of love and leadership in every breath.

When all hell broke loose for Amy and T.J. three years ago, PR legend Howard Bragman swooped in - refusing to take any compensation - and offered them daily counsel and a safe space. Bragman even insisted that the two join him and his friends on their annual vacation spot, to escape the press and pressure of losing high profile jobs. What they didn’t know at the time, Howard would suddenly pass days before their promised respite together, and his dying wish to them: Go to Mexico and be with my friends, no matter what happens. Howard passed three years ago today, and now, Amy and T.J. have returned to Howard’s favorite home away from home to remember the man who spent his life in the service of others.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I was on my walk at the community college campus when a woman gave me an envelope with the label “John Daniels, Sr. Random Act of Kindness Day.” My eyes widened when I looked inside and saw a twenty-dollar bill and two leaflets with messages about Jesus. A year earlier, John had been fatally struck by a car after helping a homeless man and sharing words about Christ’s love with him. John’s legacy of witnessing through words and deeds lives on through the woman I met that day, along with John's other family members. In Matthew 26:13, one woman was memorialized by Jesus with these words: “Truly I tell you, wherever this gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.” The woman’s tender heart for Christ compelled her to anoint Him with expensive ointment (v. 7). What was misunderstood and criticized by others as wasteful (vv. 8-9) was commended by Jesus as “a beautiful thing” (v. 10). The woman’s costly devotion was used by God in a unique way, just as He uses our deeds today for His purposes. The envelope I received reinforced my desire to distribute resources to those on the street corners in my city, but honoring Jesus can happen in a variety of ways. Let’s tell others about Him and demonstrate His love practically.

In this episode, Odessa—a transgender woman and former Anglican priest—shares her journey of transition alongside a deep wrestling with faith, vocation, and identity. She reflects on growing up with alienation and shame, the freedom she's found in embracing her femininity, and the costs of that journey for her family, church, and relationships. Odessa also explores the intersections of gender, neurodivergence, and spirituality.

What would you do if you dreamed about someone you'd never met — and then God made the introduction?In January 2022, I had a dream about recording a podcast with prophet and dream interpreter Doug Addison. There were technical difficulties in the dream, but I noted that the joy and revelation outweighed the attack. Months later, that dream became a real conversation — technical difficulties and all. What followed was a mentorship that changed the way I interpret dreams forever.On January 26, 2026, Doug went home to be with Jesus. By 2012 alone, he had documented interpreting over 25,000 dreams. Only God knows the true number over a lifetime of that kind of faithfulness.In this tribute episode, I'm sharing two stories from our original conversation — including a seven-year recurring nightmare that turned out to be destiny knocking — and two principles from Doug's Dream Crash Course that I still carry into every interpretation today: why context changes everything, and why dream interpretation is better caught than taught.This one is personal. And I believe it's prophetic for you too.Scriptures Referenced:↳ 1 Chronicles 12:32 — The Issachar anointing↳ Isaiah 59:19 — When the enemy comes in like a flood↳ James 4:7 — Submit to God, resist the devil, and he will flee↳ Numbers 21:8–9 — The bronze serpent and context↳ Acts 10:11–15 — Peter's symbolic vision↳ Psalm 126:1 — We were like those who dream (CHALAM)Mentioned in This Episode:↳ Doug Addison — InLight Connection, Dream Crash Course (still available on his website)↳Dreams Unloaded Podcast that featured Doug Addison↳ John Paul Jackson — Streams MinistriesReady to Go Deeper?↳ The Dreamers Collective School of Interpretation is LIVE on Skool ↳ Weekly teaching, community, live coaching, and biblical foundations for dream interpretationSubmit a Dream:↳ Have a dream you'd like interpreted on a future episode?

Please join Denise and Samantha as they discuss different ways to implement a daily practice into your life. They explore different ways to work specific practices attuned to you into your day in order to feel more balanced mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Studies have shown that integrating daily practices can enhance mental clarity, emotional regulation, and overall well-being. The focus of small, consistent actions that can be easily integrated into daily life, such as mindfulness, physical routines, and spiritual rituals seems to be a key in developing consistency. Some practices can evolve with life stages and contribute to cognitive functioning and resilience but what it really comes down to is finding the personal rituals that resonate with you and find a way to prioritize this self-care into your daily routine. If you have a routine or practice that has improved your quality of life in some way and you’d like to share, please send us a note at: http://enlightenedempaths.com For more information about Samantha and her work: http://samanthafey.com Denise and her offerings can be found at: http://thegratefulmessenger.com

In this special solo episode, I reflect on the surprising, emotional power of football—not just as entertainment, but as a vehicle for emotional expression, tribal connection, and generational bonding. Using the recent Buffalo Bills playoff loss as a launch point, I explore why sports hurt when we lose, why they matter when we win, and how something so seemingly trivial can touch the deepest parts of our humanity.I talk about the ritual of watching games at a Bills Backers bar, the magic of celebrating with strangers, and the sacred phone calls I share with my dad every week during the season. We also touch on the contrast between the fan and the player—the joy for us, the sacrifice for them—and why honoring both truths is part of growing up. If you've ever wondered why this “game” hits you so hard, this one's for you. Episode Highlights[00:00] – Why losing a football game hurts more than we admit[01:15] – Our primal need for battle, stakes, and tribal expression[02:43] – Ancient arenas vs. modern stadiums: how ritual never left[04:10] – Community medicine: bars, strangers, and bonding over a team[05:09] – Celebrating with strangers becomes something sacred[06:30] – The real therapy: weekly phone calls with my dad after every game[07:32] – Honoring the grief of knowing those calls won't last forever[08:45] – Sports as socially accepted emotional expression[09:32] – Holding two truths: joy for the fan, risk for the player[10:45] – Maybe it's not just a game, maybe it's one of the few places we let ourselves feel it all Links & ResourcesCathcBio https://www.catchbio.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENThe Biological Blueprint Program: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/Beam Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENSilver Biotics: bit.ly/3JnxyDD— 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENLightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794— Code: beautifullybroken CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/freddie.kimmelYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@beautifullybrokenworld Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This episode of Honoring the Journey is a deeply personal conversation with Justin Telthorst, who shares his journey of coming out as gay at age 25 while remaining within the Catholic Church—a path that defied the common narrative of leaving religion behind. Growing up in a conservative Catholic environment in the Midwest, Justin initially viewed his sexuality as a "cross to bear" and his secret testimony to overcome. After years of internal struggle, falling in love with a man, and experiencing profound peace in that relationship, he faced a pivotal moment: conversations with unsupportive priests led him to leave his dream job at a Catholic nonprofit and begin the painful process of coming out. Rather than abandoning his faith entirely, Justin found his way back to Catholicism after several years, choosing to stay and create welcoming spaces within the church. He now runs a Discord community for LGBTQ+ Catholics, offers one-on-one spiritual direction, and advocates for a theology centered on God's infinite mercy and love rather than rules and condemnation.Follow Justin on Instagram.Empty Chairs WebsiteKey Points of Interest: • Justin's realization that the Catholic Church's teaching on homosexuality was based on outdated 1950s psychology, not serious theological reflection • The profound moment of peace he felt holding hands with a man while driving through the Colorado mountains—a spiritual experience that contradicted everything he'd been taught • His decision to return to the Catholic Church after leaving, viewing it as a place where he encounters God while maintaining spiritual autonomy • The importance of taking deconstruction "one step at a time" rather than trying to figure out the entire future at once • His discovery that Jesus's only commandment is to love God and neighbor—a realization that transformed his entire theological framework • The role of online community and welcoming churches in providing support during the coming-out process • His perspective that God's justice IS mercy, and that divine love is an "unfathomable ocean" we can't fully comprehend Honoring the Journey is hosted, produced and edited by Leslie Nease and the artwork for the show is also created by Leslie Nease.Want to get updates/announcements and a FREE Deconstruction Journaling Prompt PDF?
