The Lost Civilization They Don't Want You to Remember Did giants once walk the Earth—or were they erased from history? Researcher F.K. Sterling uncovers global legends, ancient texts, and buried discoveries pointing to a forgotten pre-flood civilization of towering beings who may have shaped humanity itself. If true, our origins are far older—and far stranger—than we've ever been told. GUEST: F.K. Sterling is an independent researcher and author of In Search of Giants, exploring the intersection of mythology, archaeology, and ancient catastrophe. Raised in the Ozarks, he investigates global traditions and anomalous evidence suggesting giants were real—survivors of a lost civilization who helped shape early human history.

At our Interactive Midweek Service, Pastor Colins Nwosu continued our teaching series In Search of Character (Part 5). Reading from Genesis 6:8 and Galatians 5:22–23, we reflected on the life of Noah, who found favour with God because his life stood apart in integrity and obedience. The service was highly interactive as members of our congregation shared insights and reflections on what it truly means to live as people of character in everyday life. We learned that character is revealed through the fruit of the Spirit expressed in practical living. Love, patience, faithfulness, self control, and goodness shape the kind of life that honours God and influences others. The message emphasised that character is not about perfection but about a steady and sincere commitment to doing what is right. As quoted during the teaching, Richard Christensen reminds us that character grows through the consistent effort to choose what is right. Confession: Lord, help me grow daily in the fruit of the Spirit so that my life consistently reflects godly character in every situation.

Were the Nephilim giants of Genesis 6 the offspring of fallen angels and earthly women? Were they demigods who ruled the world in that day? If destroying them was the reason for the flood, why are they mentioned after God began afresh with Noah and his family? Is this mysterious passage simply about rampant polygamy or sexual contact with supernatural entities? This is a vitally important issue that must be resolved.Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.netMinistry website: www.shreveministries.orgThe Catholic Project website: www.toCatholicswithlove.orgVideo channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministriesAll audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.Mike Shreve's other podcastDiscover Your Spiritual Identity—a study on the biblical names given to God's people: https://www.charismapodcastnetwork.com/show/discoveryourspiritualidentityMail: P.O.

At our Interactive Service, Pastor Femi Paul continued in this special teaching series In Search of Character (Part 4) in a deeply engaging and interactive session. While opportunities, favour, and elevation may come through divine grace, sustaining them requires integrity, maturity, and disciplined character. This teaching challenges us to recognise that success without character is unstable. We were reminded that character is the structure that preserves the blessings God entrusts to us. Favour may open doors, but character keeps those doors open. In every season of advancement, the greater question is not merely what we receive, but who we are becoming. As believers, our pursuit must therefore go beyond achievement to transformation, ensuring that our lives reflect the integrity, wisdom, and godliness required to sustain what God places in our hands. Confession: Lord, build in me the strength of character that preserves every opportunity and blessing You bring into my life.

The Gateway Podcast – MJ DICKSON – Spirits of Africa: Magik, Myth, and Mystery Date: March 10, 2026 Episode: 119 Discussion: Spirits of Africa: Magik, Myth, and Mystery About MJ DICKSON MJ Dickson is an internationally recognized paranormal investigator, researcher, psychic medium, author, and television producer/director known for her work exploring the unexplained. She gained widespread recognition as the co-host of Paranormal Captured and has produced or directed numerous paranormal television programs, including Destinations of the Damned with Zak Bagans, Destination Fear, Most Terrifying Places, Paranormal Lockdown, Hotel Paranormal, and In Search of the Paranormal. Inspired by psychic abilities inherited from her mother and a practical mindset shaped by her military father, MJ began investigating the paranormal after experiencing unexplained activity in her own home and has since explored hundreds of reportedly haunted locations across the UK, USA, Europe, Africa, and beyond.

At our Interactive Midweek Service, Pastor Colins Nwosu continued our teaching series In Search of Character (Part 4). From Genesis 6:1-9, we reflected on the story of Noah, a man who stood out in a generation that had largely abandoned godly standards. Even in a culture that had normalised corruption, Noah's life showed that integrity is still possible. Ecclesiastes 7:29 reminds us that God created humanity upright, yet people often choose their own paths. We were reminded that character is not about perfection, but about a consistent commitment to doing what is right. Proverbs 31:30 points us beyond outward appearances to the deeper value of reverence for God, while Galatians 5:22–23 describes the fruit that should grow in our lives when the Spirit leads us. Love, patience, faithfulness, and self control are not simply ideals but practical evidence of a transformed life. In a world fascinated with image, God still looks for substance. Confession: Lord, shape my life so that my choices, attitudes, and actions consistently reflect the character You desire to see in me.

Receiving forgiveness from God and granting forgiveness to others are two fundamental and related principles in Christianity. Even though all positive religions emphasize the latter, many do not subscribe to the former. You will be surprised what Buddhism, Hinduism, New Age Spirituality, Shinto, Theosophy, The Law of Attraction, A Course in Miracles, and even the biblical revelation teach concerning this all-important concept that is so essential to the healing of the heart.Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.net Ministry website: www.shreveministries.org The Catholic Project website: www.toCatholicswithlove.org Video channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministries All audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.

Weirdumentary has a forward by Stephen Bissette who wrote a book also likely to be of interest to listeners: Cryptid Cinema (affiliate link) (A follow-up to that book is under construction and will include research by your's truly about the "4-walling" tour of the PGF.)

Pastor Femi Paul continued the series In Search of Character with Part 3 titled No Greater Joy. From 3 John 1:3-4, we were reminded that the greatest joy of a parent is to hear that their children are living clean and true, walking according to the standards of the Gospel. Character therefore becomes the true measure of spiritual maturity. A life of integrity, sincerity, and consistency brings honour not only to God but also to those who have invested in our spiritual growth. Drawing from Proverbs 17 and Philippians 2, the church was challenged to live in a way that reflects wisdom and godliness in a world filled with crooked and distorted values. Believers are called to shine as lights, demonstrating a different standard through their conduct. Ephesians 5 further emphasised the need to live carefully, making the most of every opportunity and seeking to understand and do what the Lord desires. The message concluded with a powerful reminder that who we are in character is far more important than what we possess. Confession: My life reflects godly character and integrity. I shine as a light in my generation.

The Hoover Institution's Project on Taiwan in the Indo-Pacific Region held a public session on Resilient Realists: How Taiwan Navigates Its Future in a Turbulent World on March 2, 2026 from 1:00-2:30 PM PT. Since the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical competition between the United States and the People's Republic of China (PRC) has rapidly intensified, and the global order has faced growing strains. Through it all, Taiwan has remained remarkably resilient. In the face of relentless diplomatic, economic, and military pressure from Beijing, Taiwan's leaders have leveraged the island's critical role in global technology supply chains, its reputation as a robust liberal democracy, and its strategic position in the Indo-Pacific to deepen engagement with key world powers. As many Americans question core assumptions of the post-Cold War global order, the PRC's military power continues to grow, and the world stands on the cusp of a technological revolution in artificial intelligence, can Taiwan continue to navigate so deftly through turbulent geopolitical waters? To address these topics, the Project on Taiwan in the Indo-Pacific Region at the Hoover Institution held a fireside chat featuring Dr. Hung-mao Tien, President of the Institute for National Policy Research (INPR) in Taipei and a former Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of China (Taiwan). Dr. Tien joined in conversation by Adm. (Ret.) James O. Ellis, the Annenberg Distinguished Visiting Fellow, and Dr. Larry Diamond, the William L. Clayton Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution.   ABOUT THE SPEAKERS Dr. Hung-mao Tien is the President and Chairman of the Institute for National Policy Research in Taipei, and board member of several foundations and business corporations in Taiwan. He also serves as a Senior Advisor to the President of the Republic of China (Taiwan). From 2000-2002, he was the Minister of Foreign Affairs. He also served as the chairman of the Straits Exchange Foundation, the semi-official body in Taiwan responsible for direct exchanges and dialogue with the People's Republic of China, Representative (ambassador) to the United Kingdom, and presidential advisor to former President Lee Teng-hui. He has also served in an advisory capacity to Harvard University's Asia Center, The Asia Society in New York, and the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C.  Dr. Tien has taught in universities in both the US and Taiwan as professor of political science.  His numerous publications in English (author, editor and co-editor) include: Government and Politics in Kuomintang China 1927-37 (Stanford University Press); The Great Transition: Social and Political Change in the Republic of China (Stanford: Hoover Institution Press); and Democratization in Taiwan, Implications for China (St. Anthony's Series, Oxford University), Consolidating the Third Wave Democracies, Themes and Perspectives (Baltimore and London: The Johns Hopkins University Press), China Under Jiang Zemin (Rienner), and The Security Environment in the Asia-Pacific (M.E. Sharpe). He received his Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Larry Diamond is the William L. Clayton Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, the Mosbacher Senior Fellow in Global Democracy at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (FSI), and a Bass University Fellow in Undergraduate Education at Stanford University. He is also professor by courtesy of political science and sociology at Stanford, where he lectures and teaches courses on democracy (including an online course on EdX). At Hoover, he co-leads the Project on Taiwan in the Indo-Pacific Region and participates in the Program on the US, China, and the World. At FSI, he is among the core faculty of the Center on Democracy, Development, and the Rule of Law, which he directed for six and a half years. He leads FSI's Israel Studies Program and is a member of the Program on Arab Reform and Development. He also co-leads the Global Digital Policy Incubator, based at FSI's Cyber Policy Center. He served for thirty-two years as founding coeditor of the Journal of Democracy.

His book Ill Winds: Saving Democracy from Russian Rage, Chinese Ambition, and American Complacency (2019; paperback ed. 2020) analyzes the challenges confronting liberal democracy in the United States and around the world and offers an agenda for strengthening and defending democracy at home and abroad. His other books include In Search of Democracy (2016), The Spirit of Democracy (2008), Developing Democracy: Toward Consolidation (1999), Promoting Democracy in the 1990s (1995), and Class, Ethnicity, and Democracy in Nigeria (1989). He has edited or coedited more than fifty books, including China's Influence and American Interests (2019, with Orville Schell), Silicon Triangle: The United States, Taiwan, China, and Global Semiconductor Security (2023, with James O. Ellis Jr. and Orville Schell), and The Troubling State of India's Democracy (2024, with Šumit Ganguly and Dinsha Mistree). Admiral James O. Ellis Jr. is Annenberg Distinguished Visiting Fellow at the Hoover Institution, where he oversees both the Global Policy and Strategy Initiative and the George P. Shultz Energy Policy Working Group.

A 1969 graduate of the US Naval Academy, Ellis was designated a naval aviator in 1971. His service as a navy fighter pilot included tours with two carrier-based fighter squadrons and assignment as commanding officer of an F/A-18 strike fighter squadron. In 1991, he assumed command of the USS Abraham Lincoln, a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. After selection to rear admiral, in 1996, he served as a carrier battle group commander, leading contingency response operations in the Taiwan Strait. His shore assignments included numerous senior military staff tours. Senior command positions included commander in chief, US Naval Forces, Europe, and commander in chief, Allied Forces, Southern Europe, during a time of historic NATO expansion. He led US and NATO forces in combat and humanitarian operations during the 1999 Kosovo crisis. Ellis's final assignment in the navy was as commander of the US Strategic Command during a time of challenge and change. In this role, he was responsible for the global command and control of US strategic and space forces, reporting directly to the secretary of defense.

On today's show, host Douglas Haynes is in conversation with Lindsay Weinberg about her new book, Smart University: Student Surveillance in the Digital Age. It's a timely book that gives a snapshot of how higher education is increasingly relying on digital student surveillance presumably to better prepare students for the digital economy. But the reality is that education technology or “ed tech” too often perpetuates austerity, structural racism, and the privatization of public universities under the guise of solving problems.  Weinberg writes about predictive analytics that divert students to certain degree paths, data brokers, how student learning software tracks student activity and behavior, automated exam proctoring that uses facial recognition, and the rise of student wellness technologies. These measures are undertaken in the name of improving student success metrics and outcomes. But schools are cutting the proven and effective programs run by real people in order to usher in technology-based solutions. Ed tech is often marketed as a cost-saving solution, but these technologies are quite costly themselves. Weinberg's research shows how ed tech and austerity go hand in hand.  Students really aren't aware of how their institutions are tracking them, even before they matriculate, says Weinberg. She traces how, in practice, FERPA actually enables public-private information sharing and says we need more transparency about student data and work. The rise of ed tech in higher education is possible because we've romanticized technology and students aren't invited to the conversation.  Weinberg also tracks the resistance to ed tech, from community organizing and policy efforts that seek to “turn back the clock” on digital technologies in education. She's seen students successfully fight to get predatory technology off their campuses. Weinberg advocates slowing down to allow the time and space for democratic process and deliberation.

As we stepped into the new month of March at our Testimony and Thanksgiving Service, Pastor Femi Paul continued the series In Search of Character (Part 2), drawing from 1 Peter 2:9. We were reminded that being “peculiar” means possessing distinctive, godly character traits that set us apart. Our identity as a chosen generation and special people is not merely positional, it is behavioural. Character is what makes us truly special. Without it, we become ordinary, indistinguishable, and ineffective. It is all a matter of character. From Matthew 13 and Romans 5, we saw that enthusiasm without depth produces no lasting fruit. Trials are not interruptions; they are ingredients in the character formula. Endurance builds tested integrity, maturity, and a hope that does not disappoint. The charge was clear: we must intentionally build on our faith by adding good character and spiritual understanding, as instructed in 2 Peter 1:5. Growth is deliberate. To neglect character development is to remain shortsighted. True distinction in God's kingdom is measured not by talk, but by transformed character. Confession: I am set apart by godly character. Endurance is building maturity and integrity in me.

A Catholic online prayer app called “Hallow” is getting a lot of attention lately. The representative spokespersons are most likely very sincere about their faith. But are they presenting a true, God-pleasing, biblical approach to prayer? Or are false, Catholic traditions being promoted? The word “hallowed” means holy or sacred. Only correct methods in prayer could ever be referred to as “hallowed.” Listen to this episode and decide for yourself.Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.net Ministry website: www.shreveministries.org The Catholic Project website: www.toCatholicswithlove.org Video channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministries All audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.

Episode 252: Should Women Wear Head Coverings When They Pray?In 1 Corinthians 11:5–6, the apostle Paul wrote that a woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered “dishonors her head.” Did Paul mean that women should wear a literal, physical head covering when they pray?In this episode of Apostolic Life in the 21st Century, Dr. David K. Bernard carefully examines 1 Corinthians 11 and makes the case that a woman's uncut hair is given to her as her covering. At the same time, Dr. Bernard acknowledges that in some cultures, Oneness Pentecostals practice wearing a literal head covering during prayer. While he does not believe this was Paul's original intent, he expresses respect for those who observe this practice as a matter of conviction and cultural application.This episode offers thoughtful biblical interpretation, clarity on Apostolic practice, and balanced guidance for believers seeking to apply Scripture faithfully in today's world.For more on this topic, see Dr. Bernard's book In Search of Holiness.

Pastor Femi Paul delivered a thought-provoking message titled In Search of Character, confronting the urgent question: what is the value of Christianity without character? He shared that when many go searching for character, what they often find are merely “characters.” From society to politics and even within faith communities, the contrast between good character and compromised character is evident. Yet Scripture makes it clear in Genesis 1:26 and Ecclesiastes 7:29 that humanity was created in God's image to be virtuous and godly in character. We were not only created to reflect God's image but to embody His nature. Using the lives of Noah and Enoch, he highlighted that true distinction is rooted in integrity and walking closely with God. Character is revealed by fruit, not claims, as reinforced in Matthew 7:16. Real transformation, according to Romans 12:2 and 2 Corinthians 3:18, is primarily character transformation. Renewal of the mind must translate into visible integrity, moral clarity, and Christlike conduct. Transformation plugs character deficits when we submit to the Spirit's refining process. In a world of twisted standards, believers are called to be different - a breath of fresh air reflecting the character of God. Confession: I am created and saved to reflect God's character. My life demonstrates integrity, transformation, and Christlikeness.

Metal freaks! In today's "triple dipper" I recommend Evergrey's 2001 "In Search of Truth" and Majesties 2023 album "Vast Reaches Unclaimed". I also talk about the 1994 movie "The Stoned Age" that follows two rockers on their adventure to party and score with babes.

Many popular Christian books train believers how to identify and overcome “The Jezebel Spirit.” Is there such a thing? Is there biblical proof? Is it right to use the two Jezebels in the Bible to identify the activities of a demon that is given the same name and still active in this era? Is this sound biblical revelation or theological imagination?Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.netMinistry website: www.shreveministries.orgThe Catholic Project website: www.toCatholicswithlove.orgVideo channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministriesAll audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.Mike Shreve's other podcast Discover Your Spiritual Identity—a study on the biblical names given to God's people: https://www.charismapodcastnetwork.com/show/discoveryourspiritualidentityMail: P.O.

The Bible is largely silent about Jesus between the ages of 12 and 30. Various sources offer conflicting claims, insisting Jesus trained under an Essene teacher, traveled to India, was mentored by Hindu healers, lived in a Tibetan monastery, studied Buddhism, or joined a “Secret Brotherhood” in Heliopolis, Egypt. After hearing the evidence, you'll be able to determine if there is any validity to these stories or if He simply remained in Nazareth until announcing His ministry in the synagogue.Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.netMinistry website: www.shreveministries.orgThe Catholic Project website: www.toCatholicswithlove.orgVideo channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministriesAll audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.Mike Shreve's other podcast Discover Your Spiritual Identity—a study on the biblical names given to God's people: https://www.charismapodcastnetwork.com/show/discoveryourspiritualidentityMail: P.O.

Prompted in part by some recent experiences, Adam, Joanna, and Zach wonder if a backlash to the cocktail movement is coming. Will the veritable ocean of ambitious, perhaps lightly-tested cocktails made by relatively new bartender at eyewatering prices turn would-be cocktail drinkers off? Does the average cocktail drinker really just prefer a reasonably priced classic cocktail?

"My dearest Cassandra,The letter which I have this moment received from you has diverted me beyond moderation. I could die of laughter at it, as they used to say at school."—Jane Austen, September 1, 1796It's been speculated that Jane Austen may have written nearly 3,000 letters in her lifetime. While only 161 are known to have survived, that small collection offers a wealth of information about her daily life, her friends and family, her writing, and her voice. In this episode, historical sociolinguist Ingrid Tieken-Boon van Ostade shares insights gained from her study of the language in Austen's letters—from her vocabulary and spelling to her many instances of linguistic playfulness and clues about her dialect and accent.Ingrid Tieken-Boon van Ostade is professor emeritus of English Sociohistorical Linguistics at Leiden University's Centre for Linguistics in the Netherlands. A member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences and a knight in the Order of the Netherlands Lion, she has published widely in her field. Her works include In Search of Jane Austen: The Language of the Letters (2014), an in-depth linguistic analysis of Austen's correspondence.For an edited transcript and show notes, visit https://jasna.org/austen/podcast/ep32.*********Visit our website: www.jasna.orgFollow us on Instagram and FacebookSubscribe to the podcast on our YouTube channelEmail: podcast@jasna.org

When it comes to the condition of Jews in Christian Europe, France was long known as the haven and heartland of integration and of toleration. And yet when things seemed to be going well for Jews in Western Europe and North America generally and France especially, the infamous fin de siècle Dreyfus affair brought to the surface some of the worst kinds of bigotry and animus--like contemporaneous Russian pogroms a premonition of the deadly looming revival of ethnic or religious divisions that had seemed a thing of the past. Our guest today, historian Maurice Samuels, author of many fine books on French history (Inventing the Israelite: Jewish Fiction in Nineteenth-Century France (2010), and The Right to Difference: French Universalism and the Jews (2016))and director of the Yale Program for the Study of Antisemitism has written a crackerjack new book. Alfred Dreyfus: The Man at the Center of the Affair, (Yale 2024) has written a wonderful account of Dreyfus himself and how should we understand what that turmoil has ot tell us how Jews then (and perhaps today) coexisted with a mainstream secular Christian society either by way of assimilation or (not quite the same thing) by peaceful integration that preserved cultural distinctions. The discussion ranges widely, setting the scene in the prior centuries when Jews settled all over France, and then were accorded unusual rights by the universalist vision of the French Revolution. Maurie also explains why succeeding generations in France included the ascension not only of Leon Blum the Jewish socialist (and inventor of the weekend!) who improbably led anti-fascist France during in the 1930's--but also the other Jews who followed him as political leaders in France, right up to the present-day. From Hannah Arendt's Origins of Totalitarianism (1951) forward, Maurie shows, intellectuals have missed the significance of the way Dreyfus and his family integrated without assimilating. The conversation culminating in Maurie introducing John to the fascinating "Franco-French War" about what that coexistence should look like: assimilation which presumes the disappearance of a distinctive Jewish cultural identity, or integration which posits the peaceful coexistence of French citizens of various religions and cultures. Mentioned in the episode Karl Marx, "On the Jewish Question" (1844) George Eliot's (perhaps philosemitic) Daniel Deronda (1876) Why does Yale have a Hebrew motto, אורים ותומים (light and perfection)? The Haitian Revolution in its triumphs and tribulations is an analogy that helps explain jewish Emancipation--and also in some ways a tragic counterexample. The horrifying Great Replacement Theory we have heard so much about in America (eg in Charlottesville in 2017) began in France; Maurie has some thoughts about that. Michael Burns, Dreyfus: A Family Affair. America's racial "one drop" rule. Pierre Birnbaum, Leon Blum: Prime Minister, Socialist, Zionist (Yale, 2015) Marcel Proust, In Search of Lost Time.

When it comes to the condition of Jews in Christian Europe, France was long known as the haven and heartland of integration and of toleration. And yet when things seemed to be going well for Jews in Western Europe and North America generally and France especially, the infamous fin de siècle Dreyfus affair brought to the surface some of the worst kinds of bigotry and animus--like contemporaneous Russian pogroms a premonition of the deadly looming revival of ethnic or religious divisions that had seemed a thing of the past. Our guest today, historian Maurice Samuels, author of many fine books on French history (Inventing the Israelite: Jewish Fiction in Nineteenth-Century France (2010), and The Right to Difference: French Universalism and the Jews (2016))and director of the Yale Program for the Study of Antisemitism has written a crackerjack new book. Alfred Dreyfus: The Man at the Center of the Affair, (Yale 2024) has written a wonderful account of Dreyfus himself and how should we understand what that turmoil has ot tell us how Jews then (and perhaps today) coexisted with a mainstream secular Christian society either by way of assimilation or (not quite the same thing) by peaceful integration that preserved cultural distinctions. The discussion ranges widely, setting the scene in the prior centuries when Jews settled all over France, and then were accorded unusual rights by the universalist vision of the French Revolution. Maurie also explains why succeeding generations in France included the ascension not only of Leon Blum the Jewish socialist (and inventor of the weekend!) who improbably led anti-fascist France during in the 1930's--but also the other Jews who followed him as political leaders in France, right up to the present-day. From Hannah Arendt's Origins of Totalitarianism (1951) forward, Maurie shows, intellectuals have missed the significance of the way Dreyfus and his family integrated without assimilating. The conversation culminating in Maurie introducing John to the fascinating "Franco-French War" about what that coexistence should look like: assimilation which presumes the disappearance of a distinctive Jewish cultural identity, or integration which posits the peaceful coexistence of French citizens of various religions and cultures.

Standardization | There's No Secret To Supplement QualityIn this episode of In Search of Insight, Emiel and Erika unpack the importance of standardization in supplement formulation. From cultivation and extraction to testing and formulation, standardization is the science that ensures quality, potency, and predictable results — batch after batch, year after year.

On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, Chris Coyne delivers a keynote lecture at the 2023 Markets & Society conference on the foundations of peace. He contrasts “top-down” peacemaking driven by elites with “bottom-up” peacemaking that emerges from the everyday practices of ordinary people.Coyne argues that much of the social-scientific and policy conversation treats peace as a public good best supplied through state-intervention. He develops an alternative framework—pax hominem—that treats peace as an emergent, learned, and constantly renewed process. Drawing on mainline political economy and the work of Kenneth Boulding, Coyne shows how peaceful cooperation depends on local knowledge, social norms, and institutions that help people navigate conflict without violence across families, communities, and markets. Together, these insights point toward a research and policy agenda focused less on imposing order and more on creating space for self-governance and the bottom-up cultivation of peace.Dr. Christopher J. Coyne is Associate Director of the F.A. Hayek Program for Advanced Study in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at the Mercatus Center and Professor of Economics at George Mason University. He has published numerous books, including How to Run Wars: A Confidential Playbook for the National Security Elite (Independent Institute, 2024), In Search of Monsters to Destroy: The Folly of American Empire and the Paths to Peace (Independent Institute, 2022), and Doing Bad by Doing Good: Why Humanitarian Action Fails (Stanford University Press, 2013).**This episode was recorded October 20, 2024.Show Notes:Kenneth Boulding's book, Stable Peace (University of Texas Press, 1978)Elise Boulding's book, Cultures of Peace(Syracuse University Press, 2000)James C.

Jesus had a way of disregarding religious traditions that enraged His opponents. It was one major reason they demanded He be crucified. Yet Paul praised the Corinthians because they kept the traditions he introduced. Catholics revere what they call “sacred traditions” to such a degree, it is considered equal to “sacred Scripture” in that belief system. So, are religious traditions good or bad?Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.netMinistry website: www.shreveministries.orgThe Catholic Project website: www.toCatholicswithlove.orgVideo channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministriesAll audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.Mike Shreve's other podcast Discover Your Spiritual Identity—a study on the biblical names given to God's people: https://www.charismapodcastnetwork.com/show/discoveryourspiritualidentityMail: P.O.

With the holiday season slowing things down, this episode turns into a relaxed check-in on what we've been reading lately—for fun, for comfort, and for curiosity.I talk about revisiting Bird by Bird and why it remains one of the most honest books about the writing life, alongside reflections on translated fiction like The Taiga Syndrome, cozy seasonal mysteries such as Mrs. Claus and the Nightmare Before New Year, and rediscovering the magic of Stranger Things through its Season One novelization.We also get into fantasy and romance reads, including Sorcery of Thorns, and why revisiting beloved stories through audiobooks—like Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings, and His Dark Materials—can be a meaningful way to experience familiar worlds in a new medium.Along the way, we talk about:-Reading vs. audiobooks (and why speed-listening and summaries aren't the same as reading)-Fan-recommended books we hope to get to in the future-Stories from other cultures that expand perspective-Why slowing down with books still matters in a hyper-optimized worldIf you love reading, book clubs, or just hearing how stories land with thoughtful readers, this episode is for you.

This is the fourth and final episode in which Albert Evans and I go in search of the 1934 smash-hit musical The Great Waltz, one of the longest-running shows of the 1930s. The goal of this occasional series of podcasts, In Search of Lost Broadway, is to try to rediscover big hit Broadway musicals from the past, which today are almost entirely unknown to us and forgotten. This week, we explore several high-profile reincarnations of The Great Waltz in the 1960s and 70s, all of which stem from a heavily revised version, with new lyrics by the team Robert Wright and George Forrest, that was first produced by impresario Irwin Lester at his Los Angeles Civic Light Opera company in 1949 and then was revived and revised in 1953 and 1965. The highly acclaimed 1965 version was announced several times for Broadway but never materialized there. It did, however, open in London in 1970, where it became a major hit, running more than 600 performances. Then, in 1972, in the wake of the massive success of The Sound of Music film, The Great Waltz became a major motion picture starring Horst Buchholz and Mary Costa, again with new lyrics by Wright & Forrest. Finally, we discuss the Walt Disney TV-movie version of the Johann Strauss story, titled The Waltz King, which aired on The Wonderful World of Disney in 1963.

What is the role of an artist during turbulent times? When the world feels loud, chaotic, and overwhelming, creating art—or even choosing joy—can feel self-indulgent or irresponsible. But history shows the opposite. Art is often the first thing oppressive systems try to erase, because it's a powerful form of communication, imagination, and inner freedom.In this episode, I reflect on why joy itself is a quiet but meaningful form of resistance, how awareness doesn't have to mean constant outrage, and why real activism is often unglamorous, collective, and rooted in everyday kindness. Drawing on ideas from Viktor Frankl and personal experience as a filmmaker and creator, this is a reminder that making art—whether professionally or as a hobby—is not wasted time.If creating gives you something, that alone is enough.

Dr. Heather LynnHeather is an author, historian, and renegade archaeologist specializing in the investigation of hidden histories, forbidden artifacts, and the symbolic systems that have shaped human civilization. Known for challenging conventional narratives and making complex historical subjects accessible, she brings a rare interdisciplinary lens to her work.Heather's undergraduate training in archaeology and information technology led to a Master's in History, followed by a Doctorate in Education from the University of New England and a Doctorate in Comparative Religion. Her doctoral research at UNE examined how history museums communicate with the public in the digital age, exploring how institutions shape cultural memory, identity, and civic engagement through technology. This work bridged museum studies, sociology, and communication theory, offering insights into how societies curate their own narratives, and what those choices reveal about power, heritage, and truth.Her current research explores the intersection of archaeology, mythology, and power: forgotten temples, anomalous artifacts, elite rituals, and the selective preservation of history. She does not confine herself to the academic mainstream, nor does she chase the fringe for spectacle. Instead, her work asks why certain truths remain buried, and what that reveals about the human condition.Hugh NewmanHugh Newman is an author, documentary maker, world explorer, megalith researcher, and expedition leader.
