Podcasts about Human life

Thank you for lending us your ears and your heart. If you have been following us since around Episode 70 you know that we have been covering the Audiences of St. John Paul II that make up the book titled, "Man and Woman He created Them, The Theology of the Body". In this show Adele, Tom and Becky will cover the final chapters of the book as they share why JP II thought the document, "Humane Vitae" (of Human Life) was the coaching manual for not just a better life but a perfect life. The team will also discuss how the great pope saint pointed to a particular power needed to gain not just personal perfection but perfection in relationships as well.

In this end-of-year episode of Beautiful Work Beautiful Life, cohosts Laurel Holland and Laurel Boivin invite listeners into a deeper, more intimate look at their emotional lives. Rather than focusing on year-end accomplishments, this conversation turns inward toward the lived emotional landscape that shaped the year: grief, anger, fear, and joy. Together, Laurel and Laurel explore why emotions are such powerful messengers, how resistance keeps us from processing what we feel, and how building emotional capacity leads to a fuller, more connected life. You'll be gently guided to reflect honestly on how you felt this year, what those feelings revealed, and what emotional patterns are asking for attention as you step into a new season of growth. It's a spacious and soulful invitation to reconnect with yourself, and to design your year ahead from a place of deeper self-awareness. In this episode: * Why developing emotional awareness is essential to authentic living * Four foundational emotional “quadrants”: grief, anger, fear, and joy * The subtle but powerful role trust plays in your ability to feel joy * How to reflect on your emotional year — the highs, lows, and everything in between * Using your emotional inventory to guide the year ahead Your End-of-Year Emotional Inventory: Grief — What was lost, disappointing, or unprocessed? Anger — What boundaries need strengthening or revisiting? Fear — What held you back, protected you, or asked for healing? Joy — What delighted you, inspired you, or called you forward? Journaling prompts are suggested to further your exploration. 1. What losses or disappointments did I experience this year? 2. What sadness have I acknowledged — and what have I avoided? 3. How do I give myself space to sit with and feel my grief? 4. What “small” griefs or disappointments did I minimize or judge as “not a big deal”? 5. What am I angry about from this past year? 6. How is my anger serving me? 7. Where are boundaries needed, strengthened, or repaired? 8. What forgiveness work is calling to me — toward others or myself? 9. In what ways am I still blaming others instead of tending to my own inner work? 10. What did I feel afraid of this year, and how did that shape my choices? 11. When was fear trying to keep me safe — and when was it limiting my life? 12. Where do I feel anxiety, and what emotion might be underneath it (grief, anger, disappointment, etc.)? 13. How can I begin to build a more compassionate relationship with my fear? 14. What genuinely brought me joy or delight this year? 15. Where did I expect joy and not find it — and what does that reveal about my expectations or needs? 16. What gets in the way of me allowing or receiving joy? 17. Where do I need more trust — in myself, others, or life — to experience more joy?

Message Date: December 21st, 2025 Location: Sandy Campus Divinity In Dust “Why Does Human Life Matter?” Pastor Jason Parrish

On this very special episode, Razib talks to paleoanthroplogists John Hawks and Chris Stringer. Hawks is a paleoanthropologist who has been a researcher and commentator in human evolutionary biology and paleoanthropology for over two decades. With a widely read weblog (now on Substack), a book on Homo naledi, and highly cited scientific papers, Hawks is an essential voice in understanding the origins of our species. He graduated from Kansas State University in 1994 with degrees in French, English, and Anthropology, and received both his M.A. and Ph.D. in Anthropology from the University of Michigan, where he studied under Milford Wolpoff. He is currently working on a textbook on the origins of modern humans in their evolutionary context. Hawks has already been a guest on Unsupervised Learning three times. Chris Stringer is affiliated with the Natural History Museum in London. Stringer is the author of African Exodus. The Origins of Modern Humanity, Lone Survivors: How We Came to Be the Only Humans on Earth and Homo Britannicus - The Incredible Story of Human Life in Britain. A proponent since the 1970's of the recent African origin of modern humans, he has also for decades been at the center of debates around our species' relationship to Neanderthals. In the 1980's, with the rise to prominence of the molecular model of "mtDNA Eve," Stringer came to the fore as a paleoanthropological voice lending support to the genetic insights that pointed to our African origins. Trained as an anatomist, Stringer asserted that the fossil evidence was in alignment with the mtDNA phylogenies, a contention that has been broadly confirmed over the last five decades. Razib, Hawks and Stringer discuss the latest work that has come out of Yuxian, China, and how it updates our understanding of human morphological diversity, and integrate it with the newest findings about Denisovans from whole genome sequencing. They talk about how we exist at a junction, with more and more data, but theories that are becoming more and more rickety in terms of explaining the patterns we see. Hawks talks about the skewing effect of selection on phylogenetic trees, while Stringer addresses the complexity of the fossil record in East Asia.

Kelsi talks with Assistant Professor of Pastoral Ministry and Missions, John Pless, about compiling and editing, The Essential Nestingen: Essays on Preaching, Catechism, and the Reformation. These essays were written by Dr. Pless' good friend, James Arne Nestingen (1945-2022). Jim was a beloved pastor, seminary professor, and most of all a confessor and preacher of the Gospel of Jesus. John talks about his friendship with Jim, Jim's legacy and the importance of collaboration within Lutheran theology. Rev. John T. Pless is assistant professor of pastoral ministry and missions at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, Indiana. He also serves as the director of field education for the seminary. Previously, Rev. Pless spent seventeen years as a campus pastor at University Lutheran Chapel at the University of Minnesota. He is the book review editor for Logia: A Journal of Lutheran Theology and a member of the editorial council of Lutheran Quarterly. In addition, Rev. Pless is copresident of the International Loehe Society, a regular lecturer at various conferences, and a member of the LCMS Committee on the Sanctity of Human Life. Rev. Pless received his BA from Texas Lutheran College and his MDiv from Trinity Lutheran Seminary, Columbus, Ohio.Show Notes: Support 15171517 PodcastsThe 1517 Podcast Network on Apple Podcasts1517 on YouTubeKelsi KlembaraFollow Kelsi on InstagramFollow Kelsi on TwitterKelsi's NewsletterSubscribe to the Show:Apple PodcastsSpotifyYoutubeMore from Dr. Pless: The Essential NestingenPastor CraftLuther's Large Catechism with Annotations and Contemporary Applications

4D LOV3 Session 002 01. Homero Espinosa - Love Is The Cure (Soul Mix)

ŚB 5.19.16-19In the tract of land known as Bhārata-varṣa, as in Ilāvṛta-varṣa, there are many mountains and rivers. Some of the mountains are known as Malaya, Maṅgala-prastha, Maināka, Trikūṭa, Ṛṣabha, Kūṭaka, Kollaka, Sahya, Devagiri, Ṛṣyamūka, Śrī-śaila, Veṅkaṭa, Mahendra, Vāridhāra, Vindhya, Śuktimān, Ṛkṣagiri, Pāriyātra, Droṇa, Citrakūṭa, Govardhana, Raivataka, Kakubha, Nīla, Gokāmukha, Indrakīla and Kāmagiri. Besides these, there are many other hills, with many large and small rivers flowing from their slopes. Two of the rivers – the Brahmaputra and the Śoṇa – are called nadas, or main rivers. These are other great rivers that are very prominent: Candravasā, Tāmraparṇī, Avaṭodā, Kṛtamālā, Vaihāyasī, Kāverī, Veṇī, Payasvinī, Śarkarāvartā, Tuṅgabhadrā, Kṛṣṇāveṇyā, Bhīmarathī, Godāvarī, Nirvindhyā, Payoṣṇī, Tāpī, Revā, Surasā, Narmadā, Carmaṇvatī, Mahānadī, Vedasmṛti, Ṛṣikulyā, Trisāmā, Kauśikī, Mandākinī, Yamunā, Sarasvatī, Dṛṣadvatī, Gomatī, Sarayū, Rodhasvatī, Saptavatī, Suṣomā, Śatadrū, Candrabhāgā, Marudvṛdhā, Vitastā, Asiknī and Viśvā. The inhabitants of Bhārata-varṣa are purified because they always remember these rivers. Sometimes they chant the names of these rivers as mantras, and sometimes they go directly to the rivers to touch them and bathe in them. Thus the inhabitants of Bhārata-varṣa become purified. The people who take birth in this tract of land are divided according to the qualities of material nature – the modes of goodness [sattva-guṇa], passion [rajo-guṇa], and ignorance [tamo-guṇa]. Some of them are born as exalted personalities, some are ordinary human beings, and some are extremely abominable, for in Bhārata-varṣa one takes birth exactly according to one's past karma. If one's position is ascertained by a bona fide spiritual master and one is properly trained to engage in the service of Lord Viṣṇu according to the four social divisions [brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra] and the four spiritual divisions [brahmacārī, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa], one's life becomes perfect.Please feel free to join our Kṛṣṇa Consciousness Telegram group chat (for both prabhujīs and mātājīs): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://t.me/iskmnews

11/21/26 - We explore the growing movement for legal and spiritual recognition of every pre-born child as a human person made in the image of God. As personhood becomes an increasingly urgent topic in the public square, we reflect on the Church's clear and unwavering teaching that human life must be protected from the moment of conception. We also highlight recent signs of hope, such as the National Men's March in Boston, where faithful men gathered to pray, repent, and publicly witness to the dignity of unborn children. We examine why personhood matters, how Catholics can effectively articulate the truth in a culture confused about the value of human life, and what concrete steps believers can take to build a society that recognizes, protects, and cherishes every human person, no matter how small.

What does it mean to be human? Dhammadinna's gently balanced and encouraging talk explores various perspectives on one of the fundamental questions, and clearly lays out various Buddhist approaches to the nature of our existence and consciousness, especially in relation to the other realms of the Tibetan wheel of life. Cherishing the opportunities is one of the challenges of this reflection - and this is a great way to begin. Excerpted from the talk entitled The Preciousness and Rarity of Human Life, given as part of the series The Four Mind-Turning Reflections, Tiratanaloka Retreat Centre, 2005. *** Help us keep FBA Podcasts free for everyone!

The Historical Roots of Russian Brutality and Putin's Ideological Driver. Professor Eugene Finkel explains that the pervasive cruelty in Russian forces stems from a historical willingness to use extreme violence, where human life is cheap, evident from Stalin's cynical fears of losing Ukraine to modern conflicts. Russians are willing to make Ukraine a desert to secure control, employing methods consistent with their actions in Chechnya and Syria. In 2022, Putin, trapped in isolation with like-minded nationalists, believed Ukrainians would not fight back. His motivation was the fundamental belief that Ukraine is not a real state and must not defy Russia by choosing its own path. Guest: Professor Eugene Finkel.

I recently made an episode about the horrific fascist ideas of Alexander Kharichev, the "Civil War 2.0"one. However, according to Girkin's buddies - club of angry patriots and Russian people's militia, who are setting up cells all over Russia, Kharichev was not only nowhere near hard enough. Their ideals are MUCH worse and they gave me a pause. Luckily for us, in this conversation they slipped up and unknowingly admitted that the West is right about the war.This whole situation was such a mess - namely they say stuff that you just wouldn't believe me if I just posted it on audio. Therefore, we streamed it! The audio file is the first 40min of the stream, with the central point which shocked me - but, please, watch the whole thing.

Horrifying videos and reported atrocities allegedly carried out by RSF militia in and around the Sudanese city of El Fasher demonstrate a “total disregard” for both protection of civilians and the Security Council's resolution demanding an end to the civil war.That's according to the UN's head of humanitarian operations in the country, Denise Brown, who told UN News after recently visiting the Darfur region before the fall of the city this week, that it's proving hard to verify information from the stricken city due to a communications blackout.She told Ezzat El-Ferri she feels a “huge sense” of tragedy and responsibility to continue providing UN relief services, adding that the atrocities must be documented so that “justice can be served.”

7. The Brutality of Control: From Stalin's Cynicism to Putin's War The cruelty demonstrated by Russian forces stems from a historical Russian/Soviet brutality where human life is regarded as cheap. Stalin exemplified this cynicism, as shown in a 1932 letter where he discussed using severe force to prevent losing control of Ukraine. For Moscow, controlling Ukraine is crucial, and both Imperial and Putin's governments are willing to use extreme violence to subjugate the population. When Putin launched the 2022 invasion, he was isolated and surrounded by yes-men, trapped by his belief that Ukrainians were essentially Russians who would welcome Russian control. The military force deployed was inadequate for conventional warfare, suggesting they planned only a short "policing operation"—a quick raid to change the government and hold a parade. This miscalculation and the resulting brutality are driven not by immediate security concerns like NATO, but by the deep psychological belief that Ukraine is not a real state and must be controlled by Russia. 1855 BRITISH ARMY

I know your last business coach told you “it's just a numbers game”, but they were wrong The concept makes sense - you set X sales calls and have a closing rate of 50%, then more sales calls = more sales.But the problem is, people aren't numbers - they're people. Each lead in your business is a whole HUMAN LIFE.And when you start to break down your business as if people were just numbers, you're going to run into a LOT of trouble.In this episode I talk you through the REAL behind the scenes problems that come up in business with this approach (that those other biz coaches aren't telling you), and how you should approach your business instead to build a business and life you love.Want to connect?The biggest promo of the YEAR is going on for The Joyful MAMA Coach this month ($1,000 off tuition!).

We begin exploring the fifth commandment: “you shall not kill”. The Catechism reminds us that human life is sacred, and we must not take the life of another innocent human. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus takes this commandment even further as he calls us to avoid anger, hatred, and vengeance in addition to loving our enemies. By forgiving and extending to others the same love and mercy we are willing to extend to ourselves, we are respecting the dignity of that person. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2258-2262. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/ciy Please note: The Catechism of the Catholic Church contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

The reason God gives for his prohibition against taking human life is that he made mankind in his image. Is this referring to a present reality? Is mankind still made in God's image? Or is this referring back to when God first made mankind, and what he desired by making mankind that way?Music Credit: J. S. Bach, “Wir eilen mit schwachen, doch emsigen Schritten,” aria from “Jesu, der du meine Seele,” BWV 78 (Leipzig, 1724).

What does it mean to value life as God does? In this episode, Mark Vance and Emily Jensen continue through the Ten Commandments by exploring the sixth commandment: “You shall not murder.”Building on Simeon's recent sermon, they discuss the sanctity of life from a biblical perspective and reflect on how this command extends far beyond the act of taking life. Together they talk through cultural shifts, issues of human dignity, and what it looks like for Christians to uphold life in a society that often devalues it.Episode Highlights:00:00 — Introducing the Sixth Commandment: “You shall not murder”04:30 — The deeper meaning of the sanctity of life10:40 — Cultural attitudes toward life and human dignity16:15 — How Christians can respond with conviction and compassion23:10 — Living out the value of life in everyday relationshipsResources:Cornerstone Church Sermons: Listen Online

In explicitly giving “all that lives and moves” to humans for food, God makes two exceptions. The first we covered last week.

Send us a textIt would be irresponsible not to address this subject. The last thing we wanted to do was jump on the bandwagon, but it was weighing heavily on Daniel's heart to ask questions. Questions some may be too afraid to ask. That's the beauty of the 1LoveHTX Podcast......we don't get advertising budgets, we don't get paid, so we don't have to conform to anyone. We just get to sit down and have real conversations with 63 countries and each other as friends. What happened? What's happening? Where are we headed? What should we be on the lookout for? This is a heavy subject, NOT because it was Charlie Kirk, but because a HUMAN LIFE was taken because of HATE, and DISAGREEMENTS! As we said, it would be irresponsible if we didn't at least talk about it.......even crazier, it takes another turn.

How should Christians react to political violence? In this deeply reflective episode, Mike Erre and Tim Stafford tackle hard questions about faith, politics, and the role of the church in society. With a week marked by tragedy, including the assassination of Charlie Kirk and a series of shootings, the hosts explore what a kingdom response looks like in these turbulent times.  From condemning all acts of violence equally to affirming the dignity of every human being, they emphasize the need for a cruciformity—a life shaped by the values and teachings of Jesus. They discuss navigating cultural challenges with wisdom, rejecting the polarizing rage economy, and fostering a community rooted in justice, love, and mutual accountability. How can the church rise above partisan responses and embody the upside-down kingdom of God?

The Wilderness E1 — This year, we are looking at themes that play a prominent role in the Exodus story. And today, we're starting a new series on the theme of the wilderness. The wilderness is a setting that shows up constantly in the Bible, and it mainly represents a hostile, barren place where humans can't survive. So why does God repeatedly lead his people through it? In this episode, Jon and Tim introduce the theme and discuss how the biblical authors portray the wilderness as a place of testing, character formation, and even an Eden-like refuge.CHAPTERSThe Breadth and Meaning of the Wilderness in the Bible (0:00-12:30)A Place Hostile for Human Life (12:30-30:35)A Place of Testing and Refuge (30:35-47:09)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.REFERENCED RESOURCESTim alludes to this past episode about the function of settings in the Bible: Setting in Biblical Narrative from our How to Read the Bible series.Check out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books here.You can view annotations for this episode—plus our entire library of videos, podcasts, articles, and classes—in the BibleProject app, available for Android and iOS.SHOW MUSIC“Pearly Gates ft.

On this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta sits down with Julie Williams, founder of Leaf People, to explore the transformative power of plants, herbalism, and plant-based skincare. Julie takes listeners on a journey from her upbringing in rural Alaska—surrounded by wild forests and medicinal plants—to her global studies in botanical medicine, and ultimately to the creation of a skincare line that celebrates the intelligence of plants.Long before “clean beauty” became a buzzword, Julie envisioned formulations that go beyond the usual staples. Leaf People integrates powerful botanicals like reishi, rhodiola, ginkgo, burdock root, and horsetail, capturing the full spectrum of each plant's chemical and energetic properties. Her approach is holistic, emphasizing whole-plant synergy and honoring the subtle energetics of each ingredient through practices like meditation, Reiki, and blessings by Tibetan monks.Julie also shares her philosophy of ally pairing, inspired by how plants naturally grow together in communities, and how this principle shapes her formulations. Beyond skincare, Leaf People reflects a broader vision of connection—between people, plants, and the environment. From farmers markets to direct customer education, Julie builds a brand rooted in respect, sustainability, and shared ecosystem thinking.This episode is an invitation to discover herbalism, explore the untapped potential of botanicals, and understand how intentional, plant-based skincare can nourish not only your skin but also your connection to nature. Tune in to hear Julie Williams share her journey, the inspiration behind Leaf People, and her perspective on how plants can heal, guide, and transform.To learn more about Leaf People, visit their website and social media.

Episode: 1419 Another way of looking at the 14th century Plague.  Today, population reduction by disaster.

Modern science meets bhakti wisdom: after 75 years of research, Harvard scientists concluded that good relationships—not wealth, fame, or even cholesterol—are the strongest predictor of long-term health and happiness. In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha discuss how the bhakti tradition is built on the understanding that life is meant to soften our hearts and train us to live harmoniously with God and every living being. They contrast this meaningful, purpose-driven worldview with the atheist perspective that sees life as random and purposeless—and reveal how bhakti offers a far richer vision of why we're here, how we grow, and how we truly thrive. This theme comes alive as they read about the gopīs' “village science”—washing baby Krishna, chanting mantras, and placing divine names on His body—which illustrates a profound technology of sound and love. Far from superstition, these rituals reflect the healthiest patterns for human life: relationships rooted in service, affection, and divine connection. Key Highlights: * How Vedic “village science” anticipated modern discoveries in vibration and sound. * Why bhakti places relationships—with God, others, and all beings—at the center of spiritual life. * Rituals and mantras as technologies of divine love, not superstition. * And yes, bar-hanging might make you live longer… but bhakti makes life meaningful.

On this episode of ID the Future from the archive, biochemist and medical doctor Michael Denton explores a “miraculous convergence of properties” for life. The topic is Denton's book Children of Light: The Astonishing Properties of Sunlight That Make Us Possible, part of his Privileged Species book series that also includes The Miracle of Man, The Miracle of the Cell, The Wonder of Water, and Fire-Maker. Here, Denton lets his astonishment flow freely in an interview with host Sarah Chaffee, with topics ranging from the light of the sun to key chemicals here on earth. "The atmosphere lets through just the light we need," says Denton, "and the sun puts out just the light we need. It's a remarkable coincidence...The atmosphere does just what is needed for life on earth." Taken together, it's an astonishing array of evidence showing how finely tuned Earth is for human life. And the common-sense conclusion, Denton says, is that a designing intelligence is the most adequate explanation for the properties on our planet that make life like us possible. This is Part 1 of a two-part discussion. Source
