Here's a more SEO-focused version built around high-value search terms for Apple Podcasts and Spotify, including religious trauma, Christian deconstruction, conservative Christianity, Christian theology, loving God, toxic religion, and religious abuse: How much love is enough? In this episode of It's In the Code, part of the series “Questions I Wasn't Supposed to Ask in Church,” we examine one of the most influential teachings in conservative Christianity: that Christians must love God or Jesus more than anyone and anything else. What happens when this teaching becomes an impossible demand? Drawing on a listener's powerful experience, we explore the connection between the love of God, religious trauma, Christian deconstruction, and the damaging effects that toxic religious teachings can have on relationships with parents, children, partners, and family. For many people leaving high-control religion or evangelical Christianity, questions about how to love God—and whether loving God requires loving other people less—can become central to the process of religious deconstruction. This episode also explores the history of Christian theology and the influence of Greek philosophy on Christian ideas about God, love, the body, the material world, mortality, and human relationships. Is loving God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength really the same thing as loving God more than everyone else? Can love of God and love of other people exist in harmony? And what if the things we love most are precisely the things that are finite, temporary, and mortal? This conversation about conservative Christianity, religious trauma, spiritual abuse, Christian deconstruction, and the meaning of love ultimately asks whether we need to rethink both love and God.

Read OnlineLifting the Sacred VeilThe disciples approached Jesus and said, “Why do you speak to the crowd in parables?” He said to them in reply, “Because knowledge of the mysteries of the Kingdom of heaven has been granted to you, but to them it has not been granted. To anyone who has, more will be given and he will grow rich; from anyone who has not, even what he has will be taken away. This is why I speak to them in parables, because they look but do not see and hear but do not listen or understand.” Matthew 13:10–13Have you ever looked but failed to truly see? Or heard something without really listening or understanding? Jesus' words teach us that seeing is more than the use of our eyes, and listening is more than the mere act of hearing. The mysteries of the Kingdom are not grasped through sensory perception; they require a deeper interior awareness. Seeing, listening, and understanding demand a receptive heart—a heart attuned to grace.When the heart is attuned to grace, the mind becomes capable of perceiving life from God's perspective. This is the gift of Wisdom. Wisdom is the pinnacle of the intellectual gifts, perfecting knowledge, understanding, and counsel by ordering them toward divine truth. Thus, a person who truly sees and listens perceives, not just information, but God's Eternal Truth. The veil is lifted, and the mysteries of faith come into focus. This interior illumination produces peace, amazement, and a profound sense of gratitude.Parables are like sacred veils, at once concealing and revealing divine mysteries. For those who are humble, docile to the Holy Spirit, and eager for truth, parables become radiant windows into the heart of God. They are like floodgates, pouring divine light into the soul and drawing it to the very threshold of eternal mysteries. Does the floodgate of divine light pour truth into your mind and grace into your will?For the proud or indifferent, however, the veil remains drawn—but not without purpose. Jesus does not arbitrarily withhold the divine mysteries from those whose hearts are hardened. Rather, the parable, in veiling the truth, invites the soul to seek more deeply. It stirs a holy curiosity and awakens spiritual desire. It is as if Jesus presents a sacred gift, wrapped in a beautiful veil. He sets it down, says, “This is for you, but don't peek,” and then smiles and walks away. The hiddenness of the truth is not a rejection; it is an invitation.Even before this moment, Jesus had already begun to lift the veil. In the Parable of the Sower, just preceding today's Gospel, He cast seed upon the hearts of His listeners. Some received it attentively, understood it, and were filled with interior consolation as divine light shone within them. Others might have enjoyed the story and found it interesting, but failed to grasp its deeper meaning. Of these, Jesus quotes the prophet Isaiah, saying, in part: “Gross is the heart of this people, they will hardly hear with their ears, they have closed their eyes…” (Matthew 13:15).“Gross is the heart of this people…”—what a powerful statement. The Greek word translated here as “gross” is not condescending but descriptive. More literally, it means that the heart of the people “has become dull,” “has thickened,” or “has grown insensitive.” Jesus is not condemning; He is lamenting. And even in His lament, He does not give up hope. He continues to teach. He offers the Parable of the Sower, and then, after today's Gospel, teaches several more parables. Why? Because He is determined to sow the seed of His Word into every heart—no matter how hard the soil may be.Reflect today on the disposition of your own heart. Are you truly open to the deeper truths of God? Do you seek to understand, or are you content merely to hear? Ask the Lord to lift the sacred veil from your eyes and ears so that you may behold the mysteries of His Kingdom with clarity and awe. Let His Word penetrate your soul like seed falling on rich soil. And if you discover areas of dullness or resistance within, do not be discouraged. Christ continues to sow generously. All He asks is that you receive His Word with humility and allow it to take root.Lord of Eternal Truth, You desire to lift the veil and reveal to me the profound and glorious Mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven. Please give me eyes to see, ears to hear, and a heart open to understanding. Flood me with the light of Your Truth and strengthen me to respond to that Truth with all my being. Jesus, I trust in You.

Is Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey a true cinematic masterpiece—or an impressive visual epic that falls just short of Nolan's best work? On this episode of The Next Reel, Tyler Johns and Lance Taylor break down one of the most anticipated movies of 2026: Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey After seeing the film twice during its premiere weekend, Tyler shares his complete review of Nolan's ambitious adaptation of Homer's legendary Greek epic. The discussion covers the movie's enormous scale, stunning IMAX cinematography, emotional themes, major performances and the importance of choosing the right theatrical format. Tyler explains why watching The Odyssey outside of a full 70mm presentation can affect the film's aspect ratio, visual impact and overall sense of immersion. They also discuss Matt Damon's performance as Odysseus, including how he handles the character's guilt, shame, exhaustion and helplessness throughout the journey. Tyler also highlights Jon Bernthal's performance as Menelaus, praising Bernthal for stepping outside the aggressive, hot-headed roles audiences often associate with him. While many early viewers have called The Odyssey a masterpiece, Tyler offers a more measured reaction. He considers the film a powerful visual spectacle and gives it 4 out of 5 stars, but does not rank it among Christopher Nolan's very best movies. The review also examines several creative decisions made in adapting Homer's original story, including notable pieces of dialogue and mythology that were changed, shortened or removed. Did Nolan's version capture everything that makes the original epic so memorable? Should audiences prioritize seeing it in IMAX, or could waiting for the digital and streaming release provide a more complete visual experience? Before getting into The Odyssey, Lance recaps a scorching weekend trip to New Orleans that unexpectedly became a New Orleans-themed movie marathon. That includes Nicolas Cage's bizarre and completely over-the-top performance in Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans, along with a viewing of the 1975 Paul Newman thriller The Drowning Pool. Then, Tyler and Lance take a trip through movie history as they reveal their personal *op five nostalgic summer movies. These are not simply the biggest blockbusters or the most critically acclaimed summer releases. They are the movies connected to unforgettable theater experiences, childhood friendships, family memories, music, vacations and specific moments from their younger years. Which films made their lists? Which summer classics still hold up decades later? Which movie memories are about more than just the movie itself? Watch the full episode to hear both countdowns and see which selections earn the number-one spots. Let us know in the comments: What did you think of Christopher Nolan's *The Odyssey*? Is it one of Nolan's best movies? Should moviegoers see it in 70mm IMAX? What are the five summer movies that bring back the strongest memories for you?
There's finally bipartisan support for something in the U.S. House of Representatives. They've passed a bill to...make Daylight Saving Time permanent? Is this real? Is it a good thing? Our scrappy host, Mike Slater, reviews all of the evidence on both sides of this debate whilst also speaking with listeners like YOU! Following the opener, Slater gabs with Dr. Benedict Whelan, Associate Professor and Chairman of the English Department at Hillsdale College, about the new movie based on Homer's ancient Greek epic poem.

SPOILER ALERT Christopher Nolan made The Odyssey, and somehow the loudest movie of the year is about a guy who just wants to go home. This week on Thumb War, we're joined by Dan to break down Nolan's massive Greek mythology epic: Matt Damon as Odysseus, Tom Holland as Telemachus, Anne Hathaway as Penelope, Robert Pattinson, Jon Bernthal, Benny Safdie, Samantha Morton, Elliot Page, Charlize Theron, gods, monsters, boats, gongs, suitors, and one dog scene that nearly destroyed us. We talk about the IMAX spectacle, the punishing Dolby sound mix, the score, the Cyclops, the Sirens, Calypso, Athena, the suitor massacre, Tom Holland's eternal Spider-Man baby face, Matt Damon's “smart guy” energy, and whether this is actually top-three Nolan. Jason went in dreading The Odyssey. Rachel saw it twice and would apparently go again. Dan elevated the show, as usual. Full spoiler review is up now.

"Notwithstanding you have well done,that you did communicate with my affliction." At first glance, this verse appears to besimply a "thank you" for a financial gift. But it is much more thanthat. Paul is introducing a wonderful truth that we might call the grace ofgiving. Noticewhat he says first: "You have done well." Paul commends thePhilippians. He isn't praising the amount of their gift. He is praising thelove that motivated it. God has always been more interested in the heart thanin the size of the gift. Jesus reminded us of that when He watched the poorwidow place her two mites into the Temple treasury. Others gave much more, butJesus said she had given the most because she gave out of her poverty whileothers gave out of their abundance. God measures giving differently than we do.He measures sacrifice. He measures love. He measures faith. ThenPaul says something very interesting: "You did communicate with myaffliction." Today we usually think of the word"communicate" as talking or sending a message. But that is not whatPaul means. The Greek word is koinōneō. It means to share, to participate, orto have fellowship together. The Philippians were not merely sending money.They were sharing Paul's burden. They were entering into his suffering. Thoughthey were hundreds of miles away, they were saying, "Paul, you are notalone. We are standing with you." Isn't that what Christian fellowship isall about? Theword koinōnia, which is translated "fellowship," appears at the verybeginning of this letter. In Philippians 1:5 Paul thanked God for their"fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now." Now, at theclose of the letter, that same fellowship is still evident. Their partnershiphad not ended. It had continued through prayer... Through encouragement... Andnow through generous giving. True Christian fellowship is much more thanenjoying a meal together or shaking hands after church. It means sharing lifetogether. Romans 12:15 tells us, "Rejoice with them that do rejoice,and weep with them that weep." When one believer hurts, we all hurt.When one believer rejoices, we all rejoice. That is the family of God. ThePhilippians could not remove Paul's chains. They could not release him fromprison. But they could stand beside him by sharing what God had given them. Andthat made all the difference. The same is true today. Not everyone can become amissionary. Not everyone can preach. Not everyone can travel around the worldsharing the Gospel. But every believer can have a part in God's work bypraying, encouraging, and giving. When we support those who are taking theGospel to others, we become partners in that ministry. We share in the workthat God is doing through them. Ioften think about the people who faithfully pray for missionaries around theworld. Others give faithfully each week to support God's work. Some writeencouraging letters. Others quietly meet practical needs. None of those actsmay seem very spectacular. But God sees every one of them. Every act of love isan expression of His grace. That is why I like to call this section "TheGrace of Giving." Giving is not something God wants from us. It issomething His grace produces in us. ThePhilippians did not give because they were pressured. They gave because God'sgrace had filled their hearts. Theirgenerosity was evidence of God's grace at work in their lives. The same is truefor us. When Christ has our hearts, He also has our hands, our time, ourtalents, and yes, even our resources. Giving is never about losing something.It is about sharing in what God is doing. Perhapstoday God is giving you an opportunity to share in someone else's burden. Maybethrough prayer. Maybe through an encouraging word. Maybe through meeting apractical need. Remember, when we share the burdens of others, we arereflecting the heart of Jesus Christ Himself. Let's ask God to make us thatkind of believer.
The heat of the day is fading on the Greek island of Paros. A narrow path leads to a secluded rocky cove where the clear waters of the Aegean Sea meet the shore. You lay out your towel on the warm stones, breathe in the salty evening air, and listen as small waves roll onto the beach. In the distance, the soft chorus of cicadas becomes part of the landscape as daylight slowly slips into dusk. This immersive 8-hour soundscape recreates the quiet beauty of a summer evening by the Aegean. The natural rhythm of water lapping over the rocks, accompanied by distant cicadas, creates a soothing backdrop for deep sleep, relaxation, meditation, reading, study, or simply taking a moment to slow down.

Dean Karayanis, member of Rush Limbaugh's highly overrated staff and New York sun columnist, cuts through the news of a weird week to deliver an unfiltered analysis of current political events, media narratives, and the state of conservative commentary. Dean breaks down President Trump's recent speech on election security and the SAVE Act, offering a candid critique of its delivery, messaging, and strategic focus. He explores why mainstream media miscasts conservative arguments while highlighting the pitfalls of punditry that prioritize clout over principle. As a result, old-school liberals like Van Jones and Bill Maher are facing an insurrection from what they call far-left and communists respectively because young people really believe what they were taught by demagogues like Bernie Sanders, Mr. Abdul El-Sayed, and J.B. “Just Blubber” Pritzker. Beyond election integrity, the episode touches on Iran, the backlash against people of Greek descent who ask Hollywood to live up to its promise of “representation” in Christopher Nolan's “The Odyssey,” and the importance of holding leaders accountable.

We explore the period of the Judges in Israel's history, a time marked by a cycle of sin, oppression, deliverance, and drift. After the deaths of Moses and Joshua, the nations was tasked with continuing the campaign to conquer the Land of Canaan. Their disobedience led to Canaanite influence and oppression. Despite Israel's repeated rebellion and worship of false gods, God showed mercy by raising up judges to save them. These judges brought temporary relief, but the Israelites continued to stray.Support the showRead along with us in the Bible Brief App!

Most people open the Old Testament and see 39 disconnected books. Dr. Carol Kaminski sees one story. A Cambridge-trained Old Testament scholar and the creator of the CASKET EMPTY framework, she has spent three decades helping the church read Scripture the way it was meant to be read, as one connected account of God's plan of redemption running from creation all the way to Chronicles.In this conversation she takes apart the assumption that Noah was chosen because he was good, traces grace as the engine driving the entire Old Testament, and lands on a discovery hiding in the Hebrew of 2 Samuel 7 that points straight to the resurrection. From the call of Abraham to the rise and fall of the kings to the exile and the return, she shows how every period of Israel's history is moving toward a single center.In this episode you will learn:Why the books of the Old Testament are not in chronological order, and how that one fact changes the way you read your BibleWhat the CASKET acronym means and the six periods that hold the whole Old Testament togetherWhy Noah was not chosen for his righteousness, and what that says about graceHow the golden calf story exposes the true character of the God of the Old TestamentWhy the singular word "seed" in God's promise to Abraham points directly to ChristThe Hebrew word in the Davidic covenant that the Greek translates as resurrectionWhy Chronicles closes the Old Testament by retelling the entire story from the beginningHow to finally read the Old Testament as one unified narrative instead of scattered versesDr. Carol Kaminski is Senior Professor of Old Testament at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (Ph.D., University of Cambridge) and the founder of Casket Empty. Her work includes the CASKET EMPTY Old Testament Timeline, Study Guide, Bible Study, and Maps, along with From Noah to Israel, Was Noah Good?, and her commentary on 1-2 Chronicles in Zondervan's Story of God Commentary series.Explore the CASKET EMPTY series and resources: https://www.casketempty.comStay Connected:Johnnyova.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@thejohnnyovaThe Revelation Reset: https://a.co/d/hiUkW8H

Episode Description: The End of Anxiety — Cultivating True Faith in a Heavy World Welcome to For Zion's Sake, hosted by Sheldon N. Volk (Shelley) and June (Juni). As we kick off a new week of broadcasting, we turn our attention to a universal struggle that weighs heavily on the human heart in this day and age: Anxiety, Worry, and Sorrow. Anxiety is a default human reaction to difficult times, but scripturally, it means to be "drawn in different directions"—pulling us away from our true path. By breaking down the original biblical context and language, Shelley and Juni explore how unchecked worry stalls our spiritual fruitfulness, how anxiety serves as the root cause of deep depression, and why fully surrendering our lives into God's hands is the definitive antidote. Inside This Episode: Recognizing a "Bad Day": A humorous look at how we identify a rough start to the day—from stuck car horns on the freeway while following Hell's Angels, to turning our worries over to the One who stays up all night anyway. The Miracle of the Easter Bells: The powerful history of General Masséna's Napoleonic troops and an undefended Austrian town that chose to leave its battle in God's hands, showing that the things we fret over often never come to pass. The Blueprint of Surrender: Reflecting on the profound wisdom of legendary missionary Hudson Taylor regarding putting our plans, loved ones, and influence completely into God's care. Anxiety Defined: Examining the Greek concept of anxiety as being pulled in conflicting directions and looking at how the cares of the world systematically choke out the Word (Matthew 13:22). The Root of Depression: A sobering analysis of Proverbs 12:25, revealing how a heart weighted down by anxiety causes depression, and why the "Good Word" is the ultimate remedy. Dwelling and Cultivating: Finding absolute peace by refusing to fret over evildoers, choosing instead to rely on the faithfulness of the Lord (Psalm 37:1-3). Key Takeaway: "The beginning of anxiety is the end of faith, and the beginning of true faith is the end of anxiety... If you lived your namesake—Sheldon 'Nothing' Volk—you would truly learn to be anxious for nothing!" — June & Shelley Volk Connect & Support: Get in Touch: We would love to hear from you!

In this episode of **The Industry Podcast**, we sit down with **Nicole White**, a bartender currently working at OPA, a Greek and Mediterranean restaurant in Waterville, Maine. Nicole traces her path through the hospitality industry — from her first job at Panera Bread and serving at Ruby Tuesday, to learning the craft behind the bar at The Speakeasy in Waterville, to becoming a full-time bartender in Newburyport, Massachusetts. Nicole's career eventually took her to San Diego, where she spent six years working at spots including Urban North Park (a New Haven-style pizza bar) and the now-closed Magic Dinner Theater in the Gaslamp Quarter, a speakeasy-style venue accessed through an escape room, known for elaborate, intentional cocktails like the smoked "Smoking Elephant" and a Manhattan served through a bullet-pierced glass. She also worked at a comedy club, giving her a unique window into hospitality under very different crowd dynamics. A pivotal early moment in her career was attending Gaz Regan's Cocktails in the Country in Cornwall-on-Hudson, New York, in 2016 — a four-day intensive she credits with shaping her approach to mindful, service-first bartending. The conversation also covers Nicole's deep involvement with **Camp Runamok** (Lush Life Production), where she's participated three times — first in the low-ABV Pathfinder cabin during her sobriety journey, then running the Suze-themed cabin, and most recently joining the beverage team, which included an R&D trip to the Monin facility in Nevada and a seven-day stretch making over 10,000 cocktails for 150 bartenders at camp. Nicole also discusses: - Moving back to Central Maine after her mother's stroke, and rebuilding her career and creative outlet from the ground up - Her certifications, including the ABCs of Canadian Whiskey and the Executive Bourbon Steward program through the Stave & Thief Society - Attending Behind the Barrel distillery experiences at Wilderness Trail and Wild Turkey - Her honest reflection on her relationship with alcohol and sobriety, and how that shaped the direction of her career - Her favorite bars and restaurants across Maine (Portland, Bangor, Rockport) and San Diego (North Park, Little Italy, Gaslamp) - Why she loves doing thoughtful riffs on classic cocktails as a way to make craft drinks approachable to guests ## Connect with Nicole White - Instagram / all platforms: @NicoleXTayl0r A big thank you to Jean-Marc Dykes of Imbiblia.

1976. You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs.Well, silly or not, the charts of this fascinating year were full of big, big hits. Crowdpleasers, I hear you cry? Well, whatever way you view 1976, and many so-called rock journos and hacks would do so rather disdainfully, the twelve months bookended by number ones by Queen and Johnny Mathis (!) were certainly colourful and (checks notes for suitable adjective) erm, eclectic. Whilst certain history threads (I'm looking at you again Channel 5) will tell you that everyone was embracing bondage trousers, safety pins and other overused punk stereotypes, the truth was that the cash registers at Woolworths were ringing to the sounds of everything from the Greek smock admirer Demis Roussos, Dutch fairground dwelling country swingers Pussycat and those loveable Rock and Roll revivalists and brothel creeper wearing funsters Showaddywaddy.And the biggest selling single of the year - well that would be the Brotherhood of Man's lip smacking shoe shuffler and Eurovision winning rocket.Yes, punk would no doubt influence the coming years of popular culture, but not whilst The Wurzels were ploughing the pop fields of '76.The world of compilations was shifting up a gear too as the album charts saw TV advertising become a major factor in changing the landscape of big sellers with huge number one sellers from the kids favourites Slim Whitman, Bert Weedon, Glen Campbell and The Beach Boys, who remained at number one for ten consecutive weeks through that Hot, Hot, Hot summer of 1976. Good vibrations indeed!And in the jet-pack future of the 21st Century, how much fun does 1976 look? Well, pop kids, let the Guardian's head rock and pop critic Alexis Petridis and author Ian Wade guide you through it courtesy of the spanking NOW Yearbook 1976.The emergence of the stadium rock, pop sound10cc inventing Paranoid AndroidGuilty Pleasures (or not!)The wonderfully weird world of FoxDisco - hello!And along the way, rediscover the shimmering sounds that kept us sane through the heatwave, explore how CB radio (and questionable radio 1 DJs, mate) became a real thing (but not by The Real Thing), consider what Cliff Richard and Lou Reed may have discussed in Studio 54, which single was Wadey's first, which artist's concert Alexis was joined by Johnny Trunk at, the story of Ruby Flipper and the Blue Peter garden, which acts not to get stuck in a lift with and why David Dundas is not struggling to find funds for his next pair of jeans.Confused? Lost? Over-stimulated? You're in great pop company then in 1976. And we wouldn't have it any other way.Whether you were there or are rediscovering this amazing pop year for the first time, grab a cool drink, and jump onboard. Hosted on Acast.

In Episode 194, we explore John 7:32-36 and Jesus' mysterious statement that confuses the Pharisees completely. The Pharisees and leading priests are trying to arrest Jesus because they're threatened by Him and want to silence His message. So Jesus says something that baffles them: "I will be with you only a little longer. Then I will return to the one who sent me. You will search for me but not find me. And you cannot go where I am going." The Pharisees are completely confused. "Where is he planning to go?" they ask. "Is he thinking of leaving the country and going to the Jews in other lands? Maybe he will even teach the Greeks!" They're trying to solve the riddle logically, searching for a geographic answer. But they're missing the point entirely. Through guided meditation, discover what Jesus is actually saying. He's not talking about geography—He's talking about His ascension. He's saying: I'm going back to My Father. You cannot follow Me there because you don't know the Father. You don't believe in Me. You're trying to arrest Me, but you cannot stop what is coming. But there's something even deeper here that applies to all of us. Jesus is saying: "You will search for me but not find me." There will be a time when Jesus is no longer physically present. There will be a time when His followers have to follow Him by faith, not by sight. The disciples will experience this after the resurrection. Jesus will ascend to heaven. He will be gone physically. And yet He will be more present than ever—through His Spirit, through His Word, through His church. This episode explores what this means for your life: You cannot follow Jesus if you need to see Him. You cannot follow Jesus if you need to understand where He's going. Faith means trusting Him even when the destination is unclear. Faith means following Him into mystery. The Pharisees wanted certainty. They wanted to know exactly where Jesus was going so they could stop Him. But Jesus doesn't offer certainty—He offers Himself. He offers a relationship. He offers trust. Learn why Jesus speaks in riddles: He's inviting us into deeper trust, calling us to seek Him rather than answers, challenging us to follow a Person rather than a plan. Discover practical steps for identifying where Jesus is leading you into mystery and finding the courage to follow without needing to see the whole path. Find the freedom that comes from trusting Jesus more than you trust your own understanding, and experience how seeking Jesus Himself becomes more important than seeking answers or certainty.

rWotD Episode 3364: Council of Jerusalem (536) Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Monday, 20 July 2026, is Council of Jerusalem (536).The Council of Jerusalem of 536 was a meeting of Chalcedonian representatives of the church of the Three Palestines (Prima, Secunda, Tertia) to condemn certain persons accused of the Monophysite heresy. It was convoked at the initiative the Roman emperor Justinian I following the forced resignation of the Patriarch Anthimus I of Constantinople in February or March, an event in which Pope Agapetus I had played the main role.Following the Council of Constantinople in May–June 536, Patriarch Menas of Constantinople wrote to Patriarch Peter of Jerusalem urging him to hold a council of the Three Palestines to condemn the same heretics as had Constantinople: Anthimus, Severus of Antioch, Zaʿūra the Stylite and Peter of Apamea. The emperor also sent a letter. These letters were delivered by the monks of the Judaean Desert who had traveled to Constantinople to take part in the council there. Since Jerusalem had only been raised to a patriarchate by the Council of Chalcedon in 451, the authority of the bishop of the city over the church in the Three Palestines was not accepted by anti-Chalcedonians.The council met on 19 September 536 in Jerusalem (formally Aelia Capitolina). It conducted its business in Greek. Its acts are preserved in the collection known as the Collectio Sabbaitica. The verdicts of the Council of Constantinople were read into the record and the assembled clergy at Jerusalem discussed all four condemned clerics. Their own verdict, however, only explicitly condemned Anthimus. It was subscribed by 47 bishops, which was almost every bishop in the Three Palestines. There is no logical sequence to the subscriptions and they were all made in Greek.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:14 UTC on Monday, 20 July 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Council of Jerusalem (536) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Kajal.

Happy Sunday! Welcome to Heal Squad's The Sunday Set Up. Life lessons to help you start the week.This week, we talk about the labels we place on ourselves, and the ones the world places on us. Do they help us better understand who we are... or do they quietly become excuses that keep us from becoming who we're capable of being? We talk about why it's so easy to embrace an identity, whether it's a diagnosis, a setback, or a story we've been telling ourselves for years, and how those labels can sometimes become prisons instead of pathways. We talk about the power of choosing how we respond rather than allowing a label to define what's possible. From living with a lifelong medical condition without letting it become an excuse, to discovering how years of emotional weight can literally show up in the body. Plus, a Sunday Set Up bonus! We talk about Star Trek, the return of swashbuckling, Greek islands, miracle churches, novelty ice cream, jazz brunches, the healing power of a good car scream, and the need to rebrand VictimCon. This week, ask yourself: What labels have I accepted about myself? Are they helping me grow... or are they quietly convincing me that I can't? Because your circumstances may shape your story, but they never have to write the ending. Have a great week! We'll talk Shawtly.

After several chapters of prophecies of destruction at the hands of the Assyrians, Micah concludes his book with a promise of restoration for the people of Israel. Although there are some differences between the Masoretic text on which the old Testament of our English Bibles is based and the Septuagint, which was translated from Hebrew into Greek by about 200 BC, the overall message is the same: God will chastise His people for their behavior, but He will bless the remnant who repent and return to Him.

Send us Fan MailVideo podcast here:In his recent interview, Jacob Hansen never once quotes from or references the Book of Mormon. It's no wonder—doing so would have forced him to confront the clear differences between what the Book of Mormon actually teaches and what the modern LDS Church teaches today.Instead of relying on the Book of Mormon, he turns to later teachings from Joseph Smith and other church traditions that came after the book was published. This pattern is common among the LDS Church, the RLDS/Community of Christ, and many other Mormon offshoots: they often set aside their original book of scripture in favor of later developments.In this episode, we look at what the Book of Mormon actually says about who Jesus is.We believe the Book of Mormon is the word of God. Its message is centered on Jesus Christ. Far from contradicting the Bible, it beautifully complements and clarifies it. The Book of Mormon powerfully reinforces the core doctrines of mercy, justice, repentance, salvation, and eternal life so they cannot be misunderstood.Above all, it testifies of the atonement of Jesus Christ. It presents Jesus as God Himself who took on flesh, came to earth, and died for our sins. It is a sacred record of the descendants of Joseph—specifically the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh—preserved for our day.The Bible was originally written in Hebrew and Greek before being translated into English. Because of this, many different English versions exist—each the result of careful work by scholars, linguists, and translators. In contrast, the Book of Mormon was translated only once, by the gift and power of God, using divinely prepared instruments. The Lord Himself guided the process, removing human interpretation and choosing words that precisely convey the meaning He wants us to understand.This is an extraordinary gift that helps us clearly know what we need for our salvation and for building a personal relationship with our Creator.purchase RCE Book of Mormon https://bomf.org/shop/ Restored Gospel - Scripture Search and Study Resources Contact us:restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.comMusic by Michael Barrett

In Episode 586, Fr. Marc Boulos asks what it truly means to welcome someone in Scripture. In Luke's account of the feeding of the five thousand, the answer is far richer than simple hospitality. Examining the Greek verb ἀποδέχομαι (apodechomai) alongside the Hebrew root צ-ר-ר (ṣ-r-r) and the Arabic ص-ر-ر (ṣ-r-r), Fr. Marc demonstrates that biblical welcome is not merely greeting a stranger—it is binding someone into the community of God.Beginning with Luke 9:14–17, he traces the literary and lexical threads that unite the crowd's welcome of Jesus (Luke 8:40) with Jesus' welcome of the crowd (Luke 9:11), culminating in the wilderness banquet. Along the way, he explores Luke's distinctive vocabulary of reclining (κατακλίνω), the companies (κλισίαι) of fifty, Israel's wilderness camp, the Greek symposium, the Gibeonite covenant meal, Abigail's "bundle of the living" (1 Samuel 25:29), Abraham's guests in Sūrat al-Dhāriyāt (Qur'an 51), Noah's self-bound hearers, the manna traditions of Exodus, Psalms, and the Qur'an, and the recurring biblical contrast between those whom God binds to himself and those who bind themselves to the old.Rather than treating Greek, Hebrew, and Arabic as isolated languages, this study follows their shared literary and lexical patterns to illuminate the grammar of the biblical text, revealing how the wilderness table gathers Jew and Greek into one people under one God. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
Tony brings more than thirty years of experience to a thoughtful conversation about what makes homeopathy both enduring and effective. Drawing from his own journey into the profession, he reflects on the mentors, historical moments, and educational developments that shaped homeopathy in the UK while making the case for keeping its core principles simple and accessible. We also explore different prescribing approaches, the role of awareness in healing, and why understanding the character of each remedy matters more than getting lost in complicated theories. Tony closes by sharing the materia medica resources he values most and encouraging practitioners to build a strong foundation in the essentials of homeopathy. Episode Highlights: 02:13 - Tony's Early Influences and Experiences 10:02 - The State of Homeopathy in the 70s 14:16 - The Influence of George Vithoulkas 19:37 - Tony's approach in teaching materia medica 23:06 - The Spectrum of Remedies 25:55 - Case Taking and the Role of Insight 28:16 - The Challenge of Complexity in Homeopathy 32:09 - Polypharmacy vs. Classical Homeopathy 35:55 - The Importance of Transparency in Prescribing 39:49 Best Materia Medica Books 44:17 Heart Sing Advice About my Guests: Tony is one of the most experienced lecturers in the UK. He witnessed the resurgence of homeopathy in the late '60s and '70s and studied with Thomas Maughan, a leading figure and major influence on modern homeopathic thought. After travelling to India, Tony returned to teach yoga before beginning his homeopathic practice in 1982. He later studied Transpersonal Psychotherapy with Ian Gordon Brown and, in the mid-'80s, was among the group of students who studied under George Vithoulkas, the world-renowned Greek teacher and practitioner. Tony is known for bringing the Materia Medica to life, weaving his extensive clinical experience into his teaching. He continues to lecture at colleges and conferences worldwide.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions: Lauren: Hi Dr. Cabral, Awhile back, I learned about Manuka honey from your show- and I wanted to thank you! It's become one of my favorite treats. I wanted to ask you about Greek yogurt. Is it good for us? Is it okay to eat every day? I love adding a little manuka and blueberries to it. Its been my daily treat but I wasn't sure if it causes inflammation like other dairy products. Thank you!! Eliza: Hi Dr. Cabral, I'm having nausea and vomiting 5–10 minutes after eating, mainly after lunch and dinner, rarely breakfast. I've also had weight loss, fatigue, stomach pain after eating, and alternating diarrhea and constipation. All tests have been normal: gallbladder/pancreas ultrasound, HIDA scan, gastric emptying test, CT scan, H. pylori stool and breath tests, allergy panel, endoscopy with clear duodenal biopsies, stool testing for IBD/IBS markers, bloodwork, autoimmune testing, white blood cell count/cancer screening labs, and tryptase testing before and 1–2 hours after vomiting. What root causes would you look at next? MohMed: Good day dr.cabral. I find myself and my father in a difficult position. Not asking for medical advice. But if someone you knew had a mass on their liver.. with elevated enzymes 200+ AST and ALT. What kind of diet would you recommend. Ex. Broccoli sprouts for sulforphane. Can you give a sample meal plan (breakfast lunch dinner) Secondarily, what helps NK and T cells? Currently he's on Omega 3 support, D3/K2.. and drinking matcha green tea organic. Asymptomatic.. thanks doc. Your the best! Looking to try Hope4Cancer. Saw your recommendation. I trust them solely because of your video/recap a few months back Chelsea: Hello Dr Cabral. I appreciate you and all your knowledge. I have some questions about passing out.. first time I passed out I was 8 from heat and elevation. Since then now I am 34 I have passed out about 9 or 10 times. They usually relate to heat/elevation or being sick. About 3 of the times I had passed out and had seizure like symptoms. I stop breathing and shake. I am unsure why this happens and was never able to figure out what it is or what's causing it. I have Gilbert's syndrome and hashimotos but has been in a calm state. I do have gut issues and wondering what could be the underlying cause of these episodes even though they don't happen all that often. Thank you so much! Donna: Hi Dr Cabral. I have normal morning bowel movements for 3 or 4 days then have an irregular morning. Those mornings, I'm in and out of the bathroom every 15 or so minutes for 2-3 hours. My stool starts off normal and by the end is a mushy consistency. I get bloated during but that's the only symptom. My gastro dr says it constipation. I take a probiotic, eat plenty of fruits and veggies, get my fiber in, drink 70-80oz of water and walk daily. This has been going on for months now and nothing seems to be helping. Thanks in advance!
