James 5:13-18  Are any of you suffering hardships? You should pray. Are any of you happy? You should sing praises.  Are any of you sick? You should call for the elders of the church to come and pray over you, anointing you with oil in the name of the Lord.  Such a prayer offered in faith will heal the sick, and the Lord will make you well. And if you have committed any sins, you will be forgiven.  Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.  Elijah was as human as we are, and yet when he prayed earnestly that no rain would fall, none fell for three and a half years!  Then, when he prayed again, the sky sent down rain and the earth began to yield its crops.  When everything else is weak you can have The STRENGTH Of PRAYER. ----more---- Through The Strength Of Prayer you can…. Save a marriage Face your faults Change directions Open a wounded heart Launch on a mission The STRENGTH Of PRAYER is where we connect with GOD and Find…. The Grace to change The Courage to act The Ability to Understand The Tenderness to Love Elijah — The Strength to Convince Jacob — The Strength to Transform Jesus — The Strength to face the unbearable   The STRENGTH Of PRAYER is the most powerful force on earth. There is no facet of the Christian life under attack more than PRAYER.  Satan lays a perpetual siege against prayer, because he knows that of all that’s said and done concerning the KOG, the actual impact depends upon The STRENGTH Of PRAYER.  I think that if the influence of the Church is weak, then anemic prayer is the cause.  Therefore I want to give you 3 things you must BE in order to have The STRENGTH Of PRAYER.  Here they are: Be READY, be SPECIFIC, and be THOROUGH   #1 Be READY to Pray Rom. 12:12 (Be)…instant in prayer;  In our fast-paced world full of unexpected challenges, being caught off guard, UNREADY to pray, is a serious problem.  It’s an indication of how deeply distracted we allow ourselves to become.  It’s the exact position Satan wants to get you into.  When the need for Prayer arises, and we’re caught w/o Oil in our Lamps, it’s because we’ve let ourselves drift so far from the Spirit.  Our hearts and minds have trouble connecting with GOD because we haven’t kept the lens of His Word up to our eyes as we view the world and its troubles.  Make your READINESS to Pray the most important barometer of your soul.  Don’t silence the alarm that signals when your Heart and Mind start to drift across the lane into oncoming traffic.   #2  Be SPECIFIC in Prayer.   Jesus said, “Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” — Mark 14:38 Sleep Walking through life rather than Watching and staying Vigilant causes the inability to focus prayer on a specific need and answer. 1Pet. 5:8 Keep your mind clear, and be alert. Your opponent the devil is prowling around like a roaring lion as he looks for someone to devour. The STRENGTH Of PRAYER relies on your ability to be SPECIFIC.  If you need an operation you go to a Surgeon who KNOWS what he’s cutting into, and has the right instruments.  Not someone with an anatomy book and a butter knife.   That kind of SPECIFICITY requires an ability to Matchup the Circumstances you’re praying for with the right Promise of GOD’s WORD.  That kind of insight comes from WATCHING.  Which means, seeking the Holy Spirit’s explanation of Life through the Word of GOD.  Don’t let the world tell you how to think about things!  GOD says, “The spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one.” — 1Cor. 2:15 Prayers that get answers don’t have to be eloquent.  But they do come from a Process of distilling the request down to its essential need, and then matching it with GOD’s Appropriate Promise.  You have to Care Enough about the Answer to seek and receive the Spirit’s wisdom about how to pray.  This kind of Specificity comes from DESIRE.     Mark 11:24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever you DESIRE, when you pray, believe you receive them, and you shall have them.   #3  Be THOROUGH in Prayer. The old-timers use to call it, “Praying Through”.  And it simply means that you pray until you receive your Answer or the Assurance of an Answer.   Acts 12:5 Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made WITHOUT CEASING by the church unto God for him.  When the Angel of GOD released Peter from jail and he went to the house where the church met, they were too busy praying to let him in! In Gen. 32:26  Jacob wrestled with the angel of GOD for a blessing.  When the angel said, Let me go, Jacob said, I won’t let you go UNLESS you bless me.  The STRENGTH Of PRAYER won’t relent until GOD answers.   But you can’t Pray Through on Prayer-Fumes.  Praying Through takes a tank of mental vision full of the Word of GOD.  Without a Filled-Up-Mind it’s hard to have a Made-Up-Mind.  Because it’s Powerful Word-Inspired Thoughts that produce the faith to Pray Through. IN CONCLUSION, Your Prayer Life IS your actual relationship with GOD.  So… Pray without ceasing.   Never stray too far from prayer.   Keep your conscience tender and your thoughts always standing in the Doorway of Prayer.

In this episode, Dan Neumann is back with his co-host and colleague, Sam Falco! Today, they’re discussing whether or not a Scrum Master should be technical. Sam often finds himself being asked about this and has noticed many other people have a strong opinion for arguing either side of the coin. But, there’s more to it than just those two extremes!   So, in their discussion today, Sam and Dan will be walking listeners through the various possibilities beside technical or not technical, and providing their advice on how to find the perfect balance between the two!   Key Takeaways A technical Scrum Master: benefits, challenges, and advice: It can be beneficial to know the product and the knowledge domain your team is working in so that you can help the team when they have an impediment or are struggling with something Knowing the domain also makes it easier to help the Product Owner understand good backlog management, communicate to the development team, and encourage refinement to happen With technical knowledge, you can call out your team if they are sandbagging Challenges and pitfalls that can come with having a Scrum Master having a technical background is that there is a possibility that they might want to get in and do it themselves (which is not their role as a full-time Scrum Master) which can damage a team’s ability to self-organize and ability to innovate As a Scrum Master, if someone on the team approaches you and asks how to solve it, your response shouldn’t be to directly solve it, but to instead ask: “What are you going to try?” A Scrum Master who has no technical knowledge: benefits, challenges, and advice: They can be helpful in removing impediments because they have some knowledge about how things work (which may help them with knowing who to go to when there’s a problem in a particular area) The danger in not having any technical knowledge (but having domain knowledge) is that they may step on the Product Owners toes A non-technical Scrum Master could be challenging the team where they shouldn’t be Another concern is if the Scrum Master only knows Scrum and they’re only concerned with the team getting value out of Scrum Sam’s Scrum Master tips: A valuable skill for a Scrum Master is knowing when the team is confused or misunderstanding things and pausing to check and make sure that everyone is in the same place You have to be good at what you do and you have to be doing it to serve the team; not making sure everyone does everything by the book (without understanding why) As a Scrum Master, you should be asking yourself: “What are we doing here?”, “Why are we doing this?”, “How can I help my team?”, and “How can I serve best?” Take some time to reflect on: “Is the Scrum framework is being applied well?”, “Is the team delivering value incrementally?”, and, “Are the Scrum values present?” In Conclusion, should a Scrum Master be technical or not? The question itself is a bad premise because it implies either ‘yes’ or ‘no’ The answer is ‘yes’ and ‘no;’ it depends If you’re a Scrum Master that feels that your lack of technical knowledge is inhibiting your ability to serve your team, then it is okay to take some basic classes to understand the challenges your development team is facing If you’re a Scrum Master who is very technical, take some time to reflect on where your service is best applied and ask if yourself if you’re relying too hard on your technical knowledge   Mentioned in this Episode: “The Expert (Short Comedy Sketch)” (Seven Redlines Video) Agile Coaches’ Corner Trainer Talk Episode: “The Risks of Having Scrum Masters as Schedulers” The Professional Product Owner: Leveraging Scrum as a Competitive Advantage, by Don McGreal and Ralph Jocham   Sam Falco’s Book Pick: The Janes: An Alice Vega Novel, by Louisa Luna   Want to Learn More or Get in Touch?

So, In Conclusion

Why did Christ pick a Samaritan as the Hero in this story?Homily on St. Luke 10:25-37  We know this lesson; we’ve heard it so many times! Perhaps you want to “test out of” this homily?  We know that the Parable of the Good Samaritan teaches us that we need to have the courage and compassion to love all people that are in need; even those who are different than ourselves. We even get extra points for knowing the symbols in the story that point to the salvific power of the Church.  This lesson on compassion for all provides a necessary corrective! Our instincts betray us.  Our fallen post-Babel psychology is tribal, with many of our moral standards defined by differences between “us” and “them” rather than need. But if that was the main point, why not make the Samaritan the one on the roadside and an ordinary Jew the one that helps him? Then the Jews listening to him would have known that they should love and help Samaritans, not just other Jews.  Surely that would have been a more effective way to teach compassion towards the “other.”  But Christ is the Great Teacher and scripture is a reliable guide to His teaching.  Whenever we read something in the Bible that seems off, it is time for us to learn something new and unexpected.  After all, as St. Paul wrote to Timothy; All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.  (2 Timothy 3:16-17) So let’s look a little deeper and see if we can learn why it was that the Lord Jesus has a Samaritan saving a Jew, rather than the other way around. 1) First off, this parable continued a theme that Jesus returned to often. He had a lot of patience for everyone but the hypocritical leaders of the Jews, those who knew what the greatest commandments of the Law were (love God and love your neighbor), but refused to follow them. Contrasting the men that were held up as the “best of the best” with a lowly Samaritan showed that much of their behavior was was ungodly and to shame them towards repentance. 2) But wait, there’s more: the parable was designed to do more than shame the religious leaders, it was designed to shame all of the listeners; to point out that their own behavior would have been just as despicable as that of the priest and the Levite. Jesus was basically saying; “this is what your leaders would have done in this situation ... and you would have been tempted to do the same.” It wasn't necessary to put an ordinary Jew in the parable; two points make a line. They themselves were part of that line.  Jesus had already described the line by describing the usual behavior of the men who were supposed to be the “best of the best.” These are the two points that make that line. The Jews would have seen that they are part of that line. But Christ is not just bringing attention to the immorality of the Jews; He was describing the fallen psychology of all mankind (the “old man”, “Adam”) in general. Mankind (the “old man”, Adam) was caught in a rut – he was not virtuous. He was not courageous. He was too willing to define virtue based on what other people did or expected rather than on what virtue actually requires. It would take something jarring to get them to see this and to change. This parable is jarring. It goes against expectations. The Samaritan in the parable is virtuous not because of who he is (i.e. the box society put in) but because of what he does; just as the priest and the Levite are cowardly and mean not because of who they are (i.e. the box society has put them in) but because of their actions.  For a tribal people, this undermined the natural and expected order.  And that disruption was necessary because that natural and expected order was ungodly and wrong. 3) There is a more subtle theological point that the Church would have us remember. The Samaritan is an outsider. It is an outsider, one who is only half-Jew – or half-man, as it were – that heals the dying man. The Orthodox Church teaches that the Samaritan in the parable represents Christ. He is counter-posed to the Jewish priest and Levite in the parable not just because He is also different – He is both fully man and fully God – but because He is the only one who can bring healing to the brokenness of humanity. As a good and virtuous man, He – unlike the Jewish leaders of His time – had the will to save all mankind; and as the All-Powerful God, He also had the power to do it. The Jewish law and temple worship that the Priest and Levite offer and lead cannot heal the wounds of mankind the way that Christ can. He is more than our High Priest, He is Christ our God, the Savior of the world. [This theological point becomes even more powerful when we add in the fact that Christ is the New Adam, the new "mankind" if you will; and we are to climb out of our rut by joining Him as part of the new mankind, as part of the new Adam, the new mankind, the Church with Him as its head (for these are all the same thing) with all the grace, responsibility, and power that this represents]. In Conclusion, our psychology is the same as that of Christ's audience. We are called to be virtuous; to be courageous and caring, even when the world is not. But we have more than parables and Christ's example and teaching to help us. He is the source of all virtue and healing, and we are His body. If we accept Him as our God, then it is His virtue that defines us and His healing power that flows through our loving actions. But there is even more: we are still fallen and our psychology is still the same: for instance, we still look to others to see what the right behavior is. The parish, like the family, is called to be a community that is defined by its virtue and charity; the examples that we set for one another naturally create a community that is good. Moreover, our community then sets the example – becomes the leaven for – the entire nation and the world itself.  May God strengthen us as we live virtuous lives in Christ; for the good of our families, our parish, our nation, and the world.

The Seattle SuperSonics played in the Pacific and NW divisions of the Western Conference from 1967 until 2008 and were NBA Champions in 1979. The franchise won three Western Conference titles (1978, 1979, 1996) and six divisional titles (1979, 1994, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2005).

In this episode of Lame Film School, we talk about The Front Runner, A Simple Favor, trash films, budget film gear, and how you should not use the Zoom H4n with the RODE NTG-2.  Please. As you may notice we recorded this a fair while back before we got all caught up with University work once again but worry not— more is on the way.

First up, if you're not sure what I was on about then you should definitely check out the video I've linked by Podcastage. In fact, if you care at all about audio then his channel is worth a sub. I've linked to the point in the video where he talks about the 'Output Impedance' and then about 30s later, 'Load Impedance'. With that in mind... RODE NTG-2: 250Ω, Zoom H4n: 1 kΩ. Worth noting though at the H4n Pro is rated at 3 kΩ so that's probably a different story, although the pre-amps could still be weak. At the time of writing this the H4n Pro is ~£170, while the Tascam DR-60D is sitting at ~£145, so I'd still recommend that unless you need on board mics too (And even then, I think I'd still recommend saving for the Tascam DR-70D).

Jesus concludes his Sermon on the Mount with a promise, but it's not what we might expect. He doesn't promise that everything will go well for his followers -- their circumstances are likely to be the same as those of anyone else. So what does he promise? And is it something we still want today? Pastor Luke teaches from Matthew 7:24-29 NLT in "Home-Building — In Conclusion, Part 5," the concluding message in his series, "In Conclusion...."

When Jesus talks about judgment day, it makes us uncomfortable. He says that people will point to their good deeds--even miracles! --and he will tell them to go away. What is the relationship between good works and salvation? Are Christians required to achieve a certain level of good behavior to be saved? If so, what is it? If not, what is Jesus talking about? Pastor Luke teaches from Matthew 7:21-23 NLT in "It's Not About Fruit — In Conclusion, Part 4," part 4 of his 5-part series, "In Conclusion...."

Jesus cautioned against false prophets, but is that even relevant in today’s largely secular society? Who are the prophets in our world today, and how can we be on guard against them? Pastor Luke looks at Matthew 7:15-20 NLT in "By Its Fruit — In Conclusion, Part 3," part 3 of his 5-part series, "In Conclusion...."

Have you wondered what God's will is for your life? When you come to a fork in the road, especially when it's a big decision, wouldn't you like to know which way to go, to stay on the "straight and narrow?" That might not be as difficult as we imagine. Pastor Luke teaches from Matthew 7:13-14 NLT in "Narrow Minded — In Conclusion, Part 2," part 2 of his 5-part series, "In Conclusion...."

The "Golden Rule" is Jesus' solution for the problem of what to do with people who might not always be agreeable. But more than that, Jesus teaches that it is how things work throughout God's Kingdom. Pastor Luke preaches from Matthew 7:7-12 NLT in "The Golden Rule — In Conclusion, Part 1," the first message in a new series, "In Conclusion...."

In Conclusion...
