Podcasts about Imitation

When we first find the spiritual path, we imitate. It's natural. We put on the costume before we've done the inner work. We adopt the style before we've absorbed the substance. We copy what we see in the saints and the sages — the dress, the language, the mood. But it's been said: "No man was ever great by imitation. Almost all absurdity of conduct arises from the imitation of those whom we cannot resemble." Raghunath and Kaustubha take that insight into one of the most important questions in the Bhagavatam: how could Krishna, the original speaker and guardian of morality, have a romantic relationship with so many girls? The answer extends to reframing who we are and what our purpose in life is. On the broadest level, the material world itself is the result of us imitating the Divine. That imitation produces absurdity and suffering. Returning to our natural position can be found through bhakti.

Exodus 6 - 7 | This week, the narrating voice of Exodus slows down the story with a genealogy. This is where most of us skip forward, but we won't today! Also, Moses and Aaron unleash the completely unique sign from Yahweh that proves that the brothers are representing the actual deity of the Hebrew people. Turns out Pharaoh's magicians can also make their shepherd staffs become snakes. Now what?

Paul says to the church at Corinth, “Imitate me as I imitate Christ.” The word in the Greek is where we get our word “mimic.” Paul is saying that he has such a close relationship with Jesus that he mimics him in everything he does and therefore, he can say to the believers, “Y'all mimic me because I am mimicking, I am acting just like Jesus.” Can we say that? Are we acting just like Jesus? What if someone was to follow your lead? Where would you lead them? To Jesus? Away from Jesus? Is your walk with Christ like a rollercoaster, up and down, turning all around, then back to the station? Or is it solid, trustworthy, stable, steady so that you can lead others to the immovable stone, the solid rock, Jesus?

Too many people settle and are complacent and comfortable without understanding the mindsets they have is their greatest enemy. They're stuck and stagnant because of their own ways of thinking, feeling, and acting! Until people get out of their own way and allow healing of their hearts and minds, no change will occur! This can't be accomplished without doing the necessary inside work! People will continue to accept and allow things against their own best interest. They will think it's okay to get into or remain in unhealthy, toxic, and dead-end relationships! Love isn't blind, people are! Yet, those with unhealed hearts and minds don't realized how their own unresolved inner issues affect their lives!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/relationships-and-relatable-life-chronicles--4126439/support.

The 1992 Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act prohibited betting on baseball, basketball, American football and most other sports in nearly every US state.In 2018, the Supreme Court declared the act unconstitutional, opening up America to a stampede of betting.On Free State today we look at how the gambling industry achieved such prominence and how they made gamblers feel that the problem wasn't them it was you.

Summer is prime time for river smallmouth, and once the water warms up, these fish become some of the most aggressive and predictable bass you can target. In this episode, we break down how rising water temperatures change smallmouth behavior, why crayfish are the key food source to imitate around rock and gravel, and why the shoreline often holds more active fish than the middle of the river. We cover how to read current breaks, shade lines, and first drop-offs, how to cover water efficiently until a pattern shows itself, and the gear setup that gives you the sensitivity and control to handle hard-fighting river fish. If you want to turn every bend and rock line into a productive stop, this episode has the blueprint.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bass-cast-radio--1838782/support.Become a Patreon memebet now for less then a pack of worms you can support Bass Cast Radio as well as get each epsiode a day early & commercial free.

This Week at Genesis | We Are Children of Our Heavenly Father Ephesians 6:1–9 As Paul concludes his household instructions in Ephesians, he turns to children, parents, slaves, and masters. In this message, we explore God's design for the parent-child relationship through the lens of the gospel. We are reminded that before we are parents, spouses, leaders, or workers, we are first children of our Heavenly Father. His love, discipline, grace, and instruction become the model for how we relate to others and how we raise the next generation. Together we consider what it means to obey and honor, how godly discipline reflects God's heart for His children, and why spiritual formation often happens through instruction, boundaries, training, and even struggle. Whether you are a parent, a child, both, or neither, this passage invites us to see ourselves as deeply loved sons and daughters learning to imitate our perfect Father. Scripture & Themes

Join us this week for the second message in our series, "New Self," with Pastor Jared Clausen.

In the early twentieth century, as variety shows flooded Canadian stages, new forms of blackface, inspired by modern forms of amusements, changed the theatre. In this era marked by progressive social reforms, the stage embodied the modern ethos of imitation, mimicry, and change. Staging Blackface in Canada: Public Amusements, Variety Shows, and Racial Acts in an Age of Imitation, 1898-1919 (Wilfrid Laurier Press, 2026) covers a moment when Canadians did not produce professional theatre, but they built amusement parks, wrote songs, and produced records. As the stage (drama), and its variants (burlesque, light opera) adapted elements from the new stages (amusement parks, social dance, and film), the modern culture popularized forms of blackface that impacted white, Anglo-Protestant, and English-speaking audiences, and drew theatrical criticism. This book explores a twenty-year period in Canada's history when there was no media regulation, and no mandate to promote Canadian culture. Through an examination of theatrical reviews, images, and textual records, Staging Blackface in Canada locates how the Canadian stage became a playground for ethnic jokes, racial caricature, and women's emancipation. It also locates some of the first Black musicals and operas to appear on Canadian stages. This episode also mentions a previous Additions to the Archive episode with assistant curator of New York City's Poster House museum, Es-pranza Humphrey, and her exhibition “Act Black: Posters From Black American Stage & Screen.” You can find Cheryl at her website, on Instagram, and on LinkedIn And check out her previous appearances on the Additions to the Archive podcast and Substack.

Imitation is a huge part of the human experience, as we imitate role models and loved ones. Oscar Wilde called it the 'highest form of flattery'. But what did imitation – or mimesis – look like in early Christianity? To find out, Helen and Lloyd take a trip in the time machine with Professor Cornelis Bennema. They discuss what imitation meant in the ancient world, how the New Testament writers adapted the concept, and why Paul instructs his listeners to 'imitate me'. Dr Cornelis (‘Cor') Bennema is Head of Research and Professor of New Testament Studies at the London School of Theology. His main research interests include the Johannine literature, character studies in biblical narrative and early Christian ethics. He is the author of a number of works on mimesis, most recently Imitation in Early Christianity: Mimesis and Religious-Ethical Formation (Eerdmans, 2025). Support the showTheme music written and performed by Dave Roos, creator of Biblical Time Machine. Season 4 produced by John Nelson.

Brianne has spent her career exploring what makes Oregon's vineyards unique. Today, we discuss her winemaking philosophy, biodynamic farming practices, and why Oregon's most exciting wines are the ones that aren't trying to be from somewhere else.We Want to Hear from You!Have a topic, craft category, or craft company you'd like to see us cover?

This sermon from the Celebration CA camp series confronts the idol of expressive individualism in modern Western culture. It explores the tension between the modern desire to constantly innovate and the biblical call to submit, imitate, and reproduce proven models of faith.Scripture References1 Thessalonians 11 Thessalonians 2Key PointsThe Danger of the "Spin": There is a strong cultural tendency, particularly on the West Coast, to take a functional model and immediately add a personal spin to it. This relentless desire to be unique can often hinder a church's effectiveness.The Fruit of Submission: True growth often comes from radical submission to authority. A group of men experienced decades of trauma healed in just four days by submitting entirely to scripture and trusted leaders.Imitation over Innovation: A pastor from the Midwest successfully implemented a leadership track by simply copying a functioning model exactly as it was, demonstrating that straightforward imitation often yields better results than forced creativity.The Thessalonian Model: The early church in Thessalonica became an exemplary model to all of Macedonia and Achaia. They achieved this not by innovating, but by strictly imitating the apostles and the Lord despite facing severe affliction.The Idolatry of Independence: The ultimate, unquestioned value in Western civilization is often personal freedom and total independence, which can severely hinder the advancement of the Kingdom of God.ConclusionThe church is called to be a unified body of imitators. By laying down the prideful need to uniquely innovate every aspect of faith, believers can experience the profound power that comes from submitting to God's word and replicating faithful, proven models.Calls to ActionReflect on areas where expressive individualism and the need for independence have hindered spiritual growth or leadership.Identify faithful, working models of leadership in your church community and commit to imitating them without unnecessary alterations.Share this sermon with other leaders seeking to build healthy, unified church cultures.

In dieser Folge wird es alles andere als piep egal. Hier wird gepfiffen, geträllert und beherzt drauflos imitiert. Dr. Uwe Westphal flattert ins Studio und zeigt eindrucksvoll, dass er nicht nur über Vögel sprechen kann, sondern sie gleich mitbringt zumindest stimmlich. Von der samtigen Amsel-Arie bis zum schrillen Möwenradau bleibt keine Feder ungerührt. Uwe schlüpft mit verblüffender Präzision in die Rollen unserer gefiederten Nachbarn. Da wird gezwitschert, gejubelt und auch mal ordentlich Krach gemacht ganz so, als hättet ihr die Vogelwelt direkt im Ohr. Mit seinen Imitationen trifft er mitten ins Geäst und sorgt für staunende Ohren. Kurz gesagt eine Folge mit Ohrwurmgarantie bei der man auf Vogelstimmen gern mal drauf pfeift. Diese Episode wird vom Kosmos Verlag gesponsert. Wir freuen uns, mit dem Kosmos Verlag erneut den perfekten Partner an unserer Seite zu haben. Zum 90. Jubiläum des Klassikers „Was fliegt denn da?“ feiert Kosmos die faszinierende Vogelwelt mit einer großen Bandbreite an Büchern vom Bestimmungsführer bis zum Coffeetable-Band.

May 7th 2026: Ever taken an imitation NyQuil thinking “how different could it really be?” Well… apparently VERY different. In today's solo episode of The Mom Room, I recap the recent cold that absolutely took me out and the off-brand nighttime cold medicine that somehow managed to derail my entire night instead of helping me sleep. Turns out the non-medicinal ingredients matter more than I ever knew, and I have thoughts.I also share my honest review of Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage by Belle Burden. This review may ruffle a few feathers, but if you know me, you know I can't fake enthusiasm for a book that didn't land for me. Let's discuss.Plus, I answer a few listener questions, including: what's one small thing lately that has brought you an unexpected amount of joy? A simple question with surprisingly wholesome answers.A chaotic cold, questionable pharmaceuticals, controversial book opinions, and tiny joyful moments, a pretty accurate representation of life lately.

We continue with the leader reconsidered, this time looking into the particular way a leader imitates Christ and His being-set-apart-for-others. What is the most fundamental way the Holiness of Jesus is shown forth? What else but that, in His resurrection, He retains the wounds of His passion! How is it that leaders must imitate Christ precisely in this way? Find out more by listening to the episode! Iowa Catholic Radio Network Shows:Be Not Afraid with Fr. Fabian Moncada and Fr.

In this conversation, Chris Thomas explores the critical distinction between emulation and imitation in the context of Christian faith. He emphasizes the importance of building a firm foundation based on love, responsibility, and collective action, as demonstrated by Jesus. The discussion highlights the challenges posed by individualism in modern society and the need for believers to engage in communal responsibilities. Practical steps for family renewal and fostering emotional maturity are also presented, urging listeners to reflect on their own practices of faith and community engagement.TakeawaysWe confuse imitating Jesus and emulating Jesus.Imitation is performance-based, while emulation embodies transformation.Emulation requires emotional maturity and collective responsibility.Love is not just a feeling; it is a presence and responsibility.The modern society promotes individualism over community.Jesus taught shared burdens and communal living.Believers often prioritize personal goals over family responsibilities.Community participation has significantly declined in recent years.Emulation of Jesus involves aligning our lives with His teachings.We must ask ourselves if we are imitating or emulating Jesus.

Long before believers were called “Christians,” they were known as People of the Way—followers of Jesus whose lives reflected His movement in the world. This series walks through the book of Acts, exploring how the early church lived, served, and shared the gospel in a changing world. As we study their story, we're challenged to rediscover what it means to be the church today—faithful, united, and always on the move.

They weren't headliners — in fact, they often were not credited or even noticed, but honestly, that's what makes them so fascinating—their careers quietly stitched together the fabric of classic cinema. They were Extras. Without them and other extras like them, all those iconic movie moments would feel a lot less alive. Their careers spanned decades and thousands of films. They became, in their own way, silent witnesses to the evolution of Hollywood from the silent era through the golden age and into the modern period. So this week, we're going to explore the lives and careers of BESS FLOWERS and FRANKLYN FARNUM, examining not only their astonishing productivity but also their unique roles within the Hollywood system. By looking closely at the films in which they can best be seen, we gain a deeper appreciation for their contributions and the overlooked artistry of background performers.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Our shout-out today goes to Joshua Wiley from Memphis, TN. Thanks for your partnership in Project23. We cannot do this without donors like you. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 11:1. Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ. — 1 Corinthians 11:1 Paul opens one of the most challenging chapters in the letter with a single, clarifying line. Before he talks about authority, order, or worship, he establishes the pattern. Imitation. The word Paul uses here is the Greek mimētēs—the root of our English word "mimic". It means to model your life after another by observable pattern, not by abstract admiration. Paul does not say, "Mimic me because I'm in charge." He says, "Mimic me as I follow Christ." In other words, mimētēs me. This assumes visible proximity to both Paul and Christ. Paul is not claiming perfection. He is claiming alignment. As long as my life reflects Christ, you can safely follow. The moment it doesn't, you shouldn't. That describes spiritual leadership. Biblical authority is not control. It is a visible submission to Jesus—and that distinction matters because not every teacher who speaks for God actually follows God. Paul's standard quietly exposes both faithful teachers and false teachers. Faithful teachers can be observed. Their lives reinforce their words. What they proclaim publicly is supported by how they live privately. They mimic it. False teachers, on the other hand, demand loyalty without accountability. They ask to be admired rather than imitated. Their churches point to their authority, their gifting, or their platform—but rarely to how they mimic Christ. In a culture suspicious of authority, the first verse of Chapter 11 reframes the conversation that has been taking place. Scripture never calls believers to reject authority, but to practice discernment. Paul here invites it. Followers are commanded to mimic leaders only insofar as those leaders imitate Christ. That places a weighty responsibility on pastors and teachers (like myself)—and a necessary responsibility on the church. God's order for the church, and worship (the topic of this chapter), is not meant to oppress and silence people. It is meant to shape them. It was never meant to elevate leaders, but to point everyone to Christ. The people of the church do not invent their own patterns. It receives them from the ultimate authority who designed the church and died for the church. And those patterns are trustworthy because Jesus is. The church is about Jesus. And we are all called to mimic the one we worship, Jesus! Every form of leadership, every act of submission, every structure in the church stands or falls on this question: Does it look like Jesus? If it does, it can be followed. If it doesn't, it should be challenged. And most importantly, when you leave worship, your life should move away from mimicking the world and be reshaped—visibly and decisively—to mimic Jesus. DO THIS: Evaluate the leaders and teachers you learn from most. Ask whether their lives are watchable—whether their private conduct reinforces their public teaching—and whether following them would actually lead you closer to Christ. ASK THIS: Whose life am I currently mimicking through teaching, influence, or example? Where might admiration be replacing imitation? How can I grow in discernment so that I follow Christ first—and leaders only insofar as they follow him? PRAY THIS: Lord Jesus, sharpen my discernment. Guard me from blind loyalty and from cynical distrust. Help me follow faithful leaders with wisdom and courage, and shape my own life so that it points clearly to you. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Yet Not I but Through Christ in Me"

Eve has got her work cut out for her on this one with an arrogant, copycat serial killer and the only clue is a piece of stationary?? You may want to get out a notepad as we try to keep these suspects straight during this discussion of Imitation In Death (2003).

This episode's mature themes may not be suitable for children. Catholic philosopher and epistemologist, Dr. Trent Dougherty, joins Pints to tackle the age-old question: what does it even mean to know something? The conversation weaves between rigorous philosophical debate - Descartes, Gettier, justified true belief and vulnerable personal territory where Dougherty shares his battles with the inner demons that plagued his pursuit of success.  Ep. 571 - - -

Now, ID The Future listeners will get to enjoy a new episode each month (as well as a bingecast archive episode) from our sister podcast Mind Matters News, a production of the Discovery Institute's Walter Bradley Center for Natural and Artificial Intelligence. The Mind Matters News podcast brings you interviews and insight from computer scientists, engineers, inventors, neurosurgeons, and other experts who bring sanity to the conversation about natural and artificial intelligence, going beyond the hype to explore the undercurrents of these important ideas. And although the Mind Matters News podcast will not often explicitly discuss intelligent design, it regularly explores the nature of intelligence, the origin of information, and the things that make us uniquely human, concepts that are central to the theory of intelligent design. On this episode, host Robert J. Marks sits down with Dr. Giorgios Mappouras for a deep dive into the philosophical and technical boundaries that define the gap between human minds and silicon machines. The pair look at why the classic Turing Test is no longer a sufficient measure of machine intelligence in the age of large language models. While modern AI can convincingly imitate human conversation, Mappouras argues that true intelligence requires the ability to do more than just mimic data; it must reach what he calls a General Intelligence Threshold. In this episode, they explore Giorgio's proposal for a Turing Test 2.0, a more rigorous framework that evaluates whether an AI can actually extract new, applicable knowledge—what Mappouras calls "functional information"—from the raw data it is given.
