In his book “Digital Liturgies: Rediscovering Christian Wisdom in an Online Age”, Samuel D. James describes how our liturgies, or the repeated habits we have developed in the way use technology, have served to deform us in five specific ways. First, our time online in digital environments fosters a kind of inauthenticity as we center on ourselves. Second, our growing amount of online time fuels outrage by constantly feeding us information and misinformation that polarizes us from others. Third, we can shame others, or be shamed ourselves, often resulting in getting canceled. We don't discuss our differences anymore. Fourth, we are driven into a lifestyle of consumption, as the algorithms feed us more and more of the content that grabs our attention and focus. Finally, we get lost in the meaningless of the online world. We're starting to see what happens when we spend time scrolling on our phones, rather than through the pages of God's Word.

216. Why we need Core Values Episode Summary: In this insightful episode of the "Lead Ministry Podcast," hosts Josh Denhart and Bill Van Kirk delve into the profound subject of self-leadership and the significance of core values. The podcast, formerly known as the "Lead Volunteers Podcast," has evolved to cover a broader range of topics beyond volunteerism, yet continues to emphasize volunteering as a pivotal aspect of ministry life. The episode begins with Josh and Bill introducing a new series aptly titled, "Lead Yourself," prompting listeners to contemplate the ability to exert self-control, execute self-discipline, and establish personal mastery. They talk about leading oneself in the context of personal life, ministry, and relationships, tying it intricately with the ideas of self-governance and integrity. Throughout their engaging conversation, listeners are prompted to examine their own core values — those defining principles that guide decision-making and behavior. Key takeaways from this episode center around the discovery and application of personal core values. Bill discusses various strategies for identifying core values, including reflecting on victories, admiring qualities in others, and seeking feedback. They emphasize the importance of these values in shaping one's path, molding a legacy, and ensuring an alignment of actions with biblical wisdom. The hosts encourage listeners to write down their values, set goals according to these principles, and constantly revisit them to maintain relevance and authenticity in life. Key Takeaways: Core values are essential principles guiding our actions, decisions, and personal identity. Authentic living, grounded in these values, results in integrity and a meaningful legacy. One's victories and admired qualities in others provide insight into personal core values. Journaling and seeking feedback are practical tools for unveiling and aligning with one's values. Core values can change over time; they should remain anchored in biblical teachings and reflect one's true self. Writing down core values, keeping them visible, and setting goals around them are strides toward living a life of true purpose and conviction. Notable Quotes: "The hardest person that you will ever lead is yourself." "If you live according to your internal metric, you will leave a legacy." "If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything." "Inauthenticity is exhausting." "It is a spiritual discipline to look for the positive."

As a starseed, learning to connect with people is crucial because without connection, helping others is almost impossible. The success of your mission depends on how well you can connect with people around you.And your mission, as I already said many times, is what allows you to thrive.And yet, you find yourself most of the time in isolation. Disconnected from others.Misunderstood, ridiculed, rejected.You find that nobody wants to listen to your ideas or advice or accept the help you offer so willingly despite your best efforts.It's a very common thing for a starseed.And your mind is putting the blame for that on the people around you.And believe me, I get it how easy it is to come to the conclusion that you've done your best to connect with others but it never worked out.And that it's not up to you anymore.But it actually is.What if I told you there are 4 potent things you might carry within you that lead to that disconnect? And when you acknowledge them and begin shifting them, your relationships with those who you're meant to connect with improve dramatically. And you also begin attracting more and more people attuned to your energy.That's what I'm diving into in this episode.I hope you will find it useful for yourself!Much love, empowerment and fun, Maria Thank you for listening!If you have and questions or comments, feel free to write to me at maria.katolikova@authentick-you.comOr follow me and shoot me a message on Facebook!And if you'd like to work with me, please visit my website.

Bravery requires being off balance. You will only find the courage to “cross the cringe chasm” by remembering that the risk of losing your identity is greater than the risk of losing approval. As today's guest Henna Pryor writes in her wonderful debut book, Good Awkward: “The idea of releasing this book into the world without knowing how you'll receive it makes me cringe. But it makes me cringe even more to imagine walking through life as a person who doesn't write and release the book that matters so much to her because she's worried how it will land. Either one is a risk.” The Approval Paradox that we all confront is that we are social, communal creatures; for most of us, what other people think of us does matter. And yet, we can't allow others' approval to outweigh whether we personally improve. Cheers to the real reel, and I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did! Awkward bits and all :) More About Henna: Henna Pryor, PCC is a highly sought after Workplace Performance Expert and an award-winning keynote speaker, author, and executive coach.

The first time I learned I couldn't be my authentic self in the world was in second grade when I wore a Barney shirt to school. Yep, you guessed it, so not cool. It's instances like that where we learn to not be ourselves, to be small and to shrink ourselves into what works for others.  In this conversation, I'm going to share what happens when our authentic self is disconnected from our public persona and how to bridge the gap.  If you feel like you've been getting smaller and smaller to fit the needs of others - then this conversation is for you.

But Manisha Thakor has learnt through personal experience that emotional wealth is more important than financial wealth. Listen to learn how to redefine your success.    Manisha Thakor is the author of the book Money Zen: Escape the Cult of Never Enough and Reclaim Your Life. In this episode of Behavioral Grooves, she discusses with Kurt and Tim how she chased the American dream of financial success for 30 years before realizing it had become a nightmare. She became a workaholic and lost sight of what truly brings happiness.    Manisha talks about how the "cult of never enough" encourages the belief that more money, possessions and achievements will make us happy. However, she realized that emotional wealth is more important than financial wealth. She discusses the importance of financial health over wealth, which includes having enough to meet your needs without stress.   How does society measure success in terms of money, power and productivity rather than by character and contribution? Manisha talks about the Buddhist concept of the "hungry ghost" which represents our insatiable desires. She argues that the answer is often "less" - shedding commitments, possessions and being still in nature.    Listen to find out how to redefine success beyond financial wealth and move towards a balance of financial health and emotional wealth.   If you'd like to support the work of Behavioral Grooves, you can become a Behavioral Grooves Patreon member.   Topics  (3:45) Welcome and speed round questions.

Marveling at the Inauthenticity of Ron DeSantis. Shows up at a rodeo in Oklahoma, offers a few cliches, fails to connect with real Oklahomans. Talking down? And hey, why no DeSantis rallies in home state Florida? Meanwhile, Trump speaks to packed houses in North Carolina and Georgia. We sample a CNN panel blown away by Trump crowd enthusiasm, as they point out "Trump actually racked up a bunch of endorsements" from Congressional party leadership. By the way, why did DeSantis and Pence bail out on their scheduled Georgia appearances? Fear of crowd reactions perhaps? Plus, notes on the Biden "bribery" scenario vis-a-vis Ukraine.

In the realm of psychology (and in the realm of everyone's Instagram), the concept of toxic positivity has provoked intense debate and polarizing opinions. However, a deeper exploration into scientific literature reveals a thought-provoking paradox: the potential benefits of what some are quick to deem as toxic. In Part 1 of this series, co-hosts Megan Lund and Ryan Marquardt explore the intricacies of relentless positivity, highlighting research and sharing personal stories that challenge popular assumptions. Brace yourself for an intellectual journey that unravels the complex relationship between positivity and well-being, leaving you with a fresh perspective on the emotional, mental, social and physical power of "toxic positivity" (which is a term that probably needs to be rebranded at this point).Generally defined as an overemphasis on positivity to the point of suppressing negative emotions, this episode highlights the subjective nature of the term. While also recognizing the "negative" effects associated with toxic positivity, Megan and Ryan present thought-provoking counter-arguments and propose new dialogue around the issue.

NFT, BTC, DAO, ETH, WAGMI, HODL. It would have been hard to avoid these acronyms only a year ago. The hype around cryptocurrencies and blockchain art was almost as annoying as the glee with which crypto sceptics welcomed the sudden onset of the crypto winter. But for all the popularity of Bored Apes and Ponzi scheme stories, there seems to have been little serious engagement with the philosophical, political, and aesthetic implications of the blockchain. The academy appears to have dismissed the crypto world out of hand, citing its financial unviability and the deeply ‘problematic' philosophical foundations of its technology. Rhea Myers is a crypto artist, writer, and hacker who searches for faces in cryptographic hashes, follows a day in the life of a young shibe in the year 2032, and patiently explains why all art should be destructively uploaded to the blockchain. Her engagement in the technical history and debates in blockchain technology is complemented by a broader sense of the crypto movement and the artistic and political sensibilities that accompanied its ascendancy. Remodelling the tropes of conceptual art and net art to explore what blockchain technology reveals about our concepts of value, culture and currency, Myers's work has become required viewing for anyone interested in the future of art, consensus, law, and collectivity. Rhea Myers speaks to Pierre d'Alancaisez about art's role in mapping and shaping the emergent properties of blockchain technologies, the crypto-libertarian, anarchy-capitalist nexus, and the enduring legacy of the conceptual art movement. Proof of Work brings together annotated presentations of Myers's blockchain artworks with essays, reviews, and fictions—a sustained critical encounter between the cultures and histories of the artworld and crypto-utopianism, technically accomplished but always generously demystifying and often mischievous.

Episode 409 – The Cost of Inauthenticity   Today we have Jeremiah, he's 35 from Denver, CO and took his last drink on April 27, 2022.   NYE Sober Prom in San Diego on December 31st.  We have Athletic Brewing, Sip Clean, Sound Soda and Crumbl Cookies sponsoring this event, open to Café RE members only.   Registration for REStore is now open!  https://www.recoveryelevator.com/restore/   Exact Nature: https://exactnature.com/RE20   Highlights from Paul:   Being inauthentic creates a lot of pain which many of us have tried to address it by using alcohol.  We often choose survival over authenticity by putting our basic needs over expressing or being ourselves.  Sometimes we have to be inauthentic to fit in.   Dr. Gabor Mate's book “The Myth of Normal” says “the perceived need to be what the world demands becomes entangled with our sense of who we are and how to seek love. Inauthenticity is thereafter misidentified with survival because the two were synonymous during the formative years.”   It has been studied that being inauthentic can lead to physical disease.  And Dr. Sarno has concluded that back pain is not structural but represents repressed emotions, mostly rage.   How can we be authentic?  It is a practice and a balance. There are two sides to the coin:  saying no to BS and doing more of what you enjoy.  Paul challenges us to ask ourselves where we are not being authentic?  What BS are we putting up with?   Better Help:  www.betterhelp.com/elevator - 10% off your first month. #sponsored   [9:28]  Paul introduces Jeremiah:   Jeremiah took his last drink on April 27, 2022.  He grew up in Wisconsin but currently lives in Denver, CO.  He's 35, single and has two dogs and loves all varieties of outdoor sports.   Jeremiah didn't drink in high school but started drinking when he went to college.  He was able to do well in school and work and went out a few nights a week drinking like a “normal” college student.  After graduating he moved out of state, got married and says his drinking was drastically reduced. Even throughout other life changes including a divorce his drinking wasn't out of control.  After getting a DUI he was ordered to take classes that he didn't feel that he needed and was able to quit drinking for over a year with relative ease.   He initially saw the pandemic as an opportunity to focus on healthy and productive endeavors. He soon started to feel very isolated, and depression and anxiety started to set in.  His doctor put him on an antidepressant and Xanax which he started to abuse and mixing with alcohol.  He attended an IOP for Xanax with no intention of quitting drinking initially.  After a big relapse he realized he was no longer in control of his drinking and decided to go to inpatient rehab.   He wishes he had gone into rehab sooner where he finally felt relief and realized that he needed to make some changes. He made the decision to quit his job and moved back to Denver where he took some time off and started doing things that he used to enjoy.  He feels that his hobbies are just as important to his recovery as the community that he has found in AA and Café RE. He has found that through his hobbies and mindfulness he is better at living in the moment.  He looks forward to the future and plans to do more hiking, travelling and hopefully one day have a family.   [48:25] Paul's summary:   Gen Z and many others are waking up to the fact that alcohol is shit.  Just like Big Tobacco had their moment with catchy icons helping us believe that smoking was cool and good for us until people started dying, Big Alcohol has also spun a similar story – that it is good for our health and social life. But we are waking up and just like domestic tobacco sales went to shit, I imagine the same is already in motion for Big Alcohol.   Resources Connect with Cafe RE - Use the promo code OPPORTUNITY to waive the set-up fee.

“My childhood was a childhood in the closet. I had some good things. I had some bad things, like living in the closet is, you know, not always terrible. It's simply not the greatest expression of, of who we have the capacity to become, I think. Um, but for my parents, you know, as my father went along in my childhood, he became more and more withdrawn and kept trying to do the right thing, was closeted even to himself. This was a secret he was keeping even from himself for most of my childhood. But it made him kind of a lousy partner. Right. My mother's experience was just a very, very lonely experience. Her life looked on the outside exactly like it was supposed to look, we lived in a nice community. She was married to a lawyer, or, you know, we looked great on a Christmas card, but it felt cavernous, just vacant and left with so much time on her own. Um, she really struggled not to let her memory present her with things to work on. And that led her to be very depressed throughout my childhood.” So says Jessi Hempel, a long-time media and technology journalist, an award-winning host of the podcast, Hello Monday, and author of the new memoir, The Family Outing. Her book is a profound telling of family dynamics, offering lessons on accepting one's truest self. Specifically, it's the story of a family who comes out of the closet to embrace their queer identities. Even Jessi's mother, who is straight, lives in a type of closet, Jessi explains, as she nearly became the victim of a serial killer as a teenager—this unconfronted trauma affects her entire family's life. In our conversation, Jessi shares her journey to emphasize the detrimental side-effects of shame and the non-linear path to liberation. Our conversation explores the value of authenticity and navigating parts of ourselves we have not yet learned to face. She believes that when we“step into ourselves,” culture has the capacity to shift, allowing us all to live more gracefully. Okay, let's get to our conversation.  MORE FROM JESSI HEMPEL: The Family Outing Jessi's podcast, Hello Monday Follow Jessi on LinkedIn and Instagram To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we welcome philosopher Skye Cleary. She is a lecturer at Columbia University and the City College of New York. Skye is the author of Existentialism and Romantic Love and co-editor of How to Live a Good Life. Her writing has appeared in The Paris Review, Aeon, Business Insider, TED-Ed, and The Los Angeles Review of Books, among other outlets.In 2021, she was a MacDowell Fellow and In 2017, she won the New Philosopher Writers' Award. Her latest book is called How to Be Authentic. In this episode, I talk to Skye Cleary about Simone de Beauvoir's life and how it has informed her existentialist philosophy. As a feminist during the forties, Simone was passionate about freedom of choice. It's not a surprise then that her definition of authenticity also revolves around self-determination. Authenticity is not about finding a true self, but rather a process of creating who we want to be. We also touch on the topics of gender, power, social justice, narcissism, and fulfillment.Website: skyecleary.comTwitter: @Skye_Cleary Topics01:54 French existentialist philosophy04:05 “One is not born, but rather becomes, woman”09:58 Creating our essence12:46 Transcendancing our impulses18:01 Creative rebellion22:19 Skye's Critique of Simone de Beauvoir24:03 Authenticity is responsible freedom27:33 Power and freedom32:00 Skye's background in philosophy33:15 Intersubjectivity: the foundation of ethical relations34:48 Inauthenticity, social media, narcissism38:37 Windows of freedom, genetics, motherhood41:38 Fulfillment is embracing life
