Send us a textOn today's podcast episode I sat down with Michael Pakaluk, a professor of political economy in the Busch School of Business at The Catholic University of America in Washington, DC, and a member of the Pontifical Academy of St. Thomas Aquinas. In his book, "Be Good Bankers, The Economic Interpretation of Matthew's Gospel" Michael Pakaluk delves into the role of bankers in society, questioning whether they truly serve the common good or if their practices are driven purely by profit motives.To learn more visit: https://www.amazon.com/Be-Good-Bankers-Interpretation-Translation/dp/1510782346/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=70B2X&content-id=amzn1.sym.bc3ba8d1-5076-4ab7-9ba8-a5c6211e002d&pf_rd_p=bc3ba8d1-5076-4ab7-9ba8-a5c6211e002d&pf_rd_r=137-2905206-0899437&pd_rd_wg=zZVDJ&pd_rd_r=2d7cab25-e9ee-46bf-ac32-31ef779568af&ref_=aufs_ap_sc_dskSupport The Show: https://www.buzzsprout.com/110664/subscribe Build your own local Tribe with Tribe Builder: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-builderRegister for our 2025 Fall Men's Retreat: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/2025-mens-retreatRegister for Tribe XVI starting June 1st: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-xviThis podcast is sponsored by Dark Water Woodwork.

Episode 2.4Episode Description:In Part 2 of our deep dive into Genesis 1, we ask the big question: Which creation view best fits both the Bible and the observable universe? Building on our discussion of yom in Part 1, we compare major views—Young Earth, Old Earth, Theistic Evolution, and more—and examine how broader creation passages across Scripture (Job, Psalms, Romans, etc.) shape our understanding of Genesis.Michael makes the case that Old Earth Creationism aligns best with the text's linguistic structure, theological depth, and scientific evidence—from radiometric dating to starlight travel to the Big Bang. Along the way, we answer common objections and emphasize that the goal isn't to compromise Scripture, but to read it faithfully while recognizing God's revelation in both Word and world.Find our videocast here: https://youtu.be/fZX1nZbaJIUMerch here: https://take-2-podcast.printify.me/Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):⁠https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stone⁠License code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at https://www.take2theology.com/

Werte sollten immer im Kontext individueller Symptome betrachtet werden, wobei bei Vitaminen/Mineralstoffen oft der obere Normbereich anzustreben ist.Wir besprechen oft übersehene, aber kritische Werte: HOMA-Index (Insulinresistenz-Früherkennung, oft besser als HbA1c!), Homocystein (B-Vitamine, Methylierung) und eine umfassende Schilddrüsen-Diagnostik (mehr als nur TSH: fT3, fT4, Antikörper, rT3). Christina betont die richtige Messmethode: Bei Mineralstoffen (Mg, Zn, B6) ist Vollblut oft aussagekräftiger als Serum, um die zelluläre Versorgung zu prüfen. Auch bei B12 sind HoloTC/MMA dem Serumwert vorzuziehen.Fokus Schilddrüse: Häufige Ursachen (Stress, Nährstoffmängel, Darm, Toxine) und wichtige Parameter für eine gute Diagnostik werden erklärt, inkl. optimaler Wertebereiche (z.B. TSH kleiner 1,5, fT4 größer 1,2, fT3 größer 3,0).Darmgesundheit: Sinnvolle Parameter einer Stuhlanalyse (Flora, pH, sIgA, Calprotectin, Zonulin, Verdauungsrückstände) werden beleuchtet – weniger ist oft mehr als Tests mit hunderten Stämmen.Abschließend empfiehlt Christina ein Basislaborpanel für die jährliche Prävention – eine wichtige Investition in die eigene Gesundheit.

This is part two of our conversation with Anna Mullikin. Picking up where we left off last week, this episode is the interpretation of Anna's dream The Changing Of The Times. In this episode you will learn a bit more about this dreamer, her gifting in discernment, counsel and deliverance and perhaps get a little glimpse into what might be coming next for her! As always, there is much to learn from other people's dreams and the way God speaks to them. Perhaps Anna's dream will spark something you needed to hear for your own.

Gandpa Bill explores :Ivan Illich, in his commentary on Hugh of Saint Victor's Didascalion, explores the medieval understanding of knowledge and learning. He uses the powerful metaphor of "God's Play on Wisdom" to describe how divine wisdom is manifested and communicated through the created world and, particularly, through the study of sacred texts. This isn't a rigid, deterministic transmission, but rather a playful unfolding, inviting human interpretation and engagement.We can draw a compelling analogy here when discussing the concept of God on my podcast. Instead of viewing "God" as a static, fully knowable entity, we can explore how the human understanding of the divine might be akin to interpreting a complex and multifaceted "play" orchestrated by a higher wisdom. This "play" unfolds through our experiences, our relationships, our search for meaning, and even our struggles with doubt and faith.Grandpa Bill WILL BE asking these Questions when Byron Athene actually joins on May 29th (incorporating Illich's analogy):Byron, considering Illich's concept of "God's Play on Wisdom," how might the diverse and often contradictory interpretations of God throughout history be seen as different human readings or engagements with this complex "play"? What psychological factors might influence these varying interpretations?Illich suggests a playful unfolding of divine wisdom. How might this perspective inform our understanding of the role of questioning and doubt in an individual's spiritual or existential journey? Is doubt perhaps an inherent part of engaging with this "play"?The "text" in Illich's analogy refers to sacred writings and the created world. In a modern context, what might be considered the "texts" through which individuals seek to understand or experience the divine, and how does our "reading" of these contemporary "texts" (science, nature, personal experience) shape our concept of God?If our understanding of God is akin to interpreting a "play," how does this analogy impact our perception of religious dogma and doctrine? Are these perhaps like different interpretations or stagings of the same underlying "wisdom"? What are the psychological implications of adhering rigidly to one interpretation versus embracing a more fluid understanding?Illich emphasizes the active engagement of the reader with the text. How does this translate to our personal relationship with the concept of God? Is it a passive reception of information or an active, ongoing process of interpretation and meaning-making?The metaphor of "play" suggests an element of mystery and perhaps even unpredictability. How does this resonate with the human experience of faith, which often involves uncertainty and moments of profound mystery?Drawing on Illich's idea, how might psychological well-being be influenced by an individual's ability to find their own meaningful interpretation within this "play of wisdom," rather than feeling constrained by prescribed understandings of God?Grandpa Bill Asks:Thinking about your own understanding of the divine, what aspects feel like a clearly defined script, and what aspects feel more like an open-ended, improvisational "play" that you are actively participating in? Share your reflections!In what "texts" (whether traditional religious texts, nature, personal experiences, art, etc.) do you find the most compelling "clues" or "insights" into the nature of something greater than yourself? How do you "read" these "texts"?#GodsPlay,#IvanIllich,#InTheVineyardOfTheText,#HughOfSaintVictor,#Wisdom,#Interpretation,#Philosophy,#Theology,#Spirituality,#Psychology,#Podcast,#GrandpaBill,#ByronAthene,#VirtualCreative Solutions for Holistic Healthcare

This lecture text explores contract interpretation, discussing how courts determine the meaning of agreements using the plain meaning rule and extrinsic evidence, such as course of performance, course of dealing, and usage of trade, while also considering the parol evidence rule. It then differentiates performance obligations under common law and the U.C.C., contrasting substantial performance with the perfect tender rule, and introducing the concept of conditions. The material further explains breach, including material versus minor breaches and anticipatory repudiation, before outlining the rights of third parties through assignment, delegation, and third-party beneficiary contracts, finally addressing ways performance may be excused due to impossibility, impracticability, or frustration of purpose.This conversation delves into the complexities of contract law, focusing on the stages beyond formation, including interpretation, performance, conditions, breach, and third-party rights. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding the intent behind contracts, the standards for performance under common law and the UCC, and the implications of breaches. It also covers the roles of conditions, anticipatory repudiation, and the rights of third parties in contractual agreements, concluding with the circumstances under which performance may be excused.Understanding contract law goes beyond just formation.Contract interpretation focuses on the parties' intent.Extrinsic evidence plays a crucial role in ambiguous contracts.Substantial performance is key in common law contracts.The UCC applies a stricter perfect tender rule for goods.Conditions can be express or implied and affect performance duties.Material breaches excuse the non-breaching party from performance.Anticipatory repudiation allows immediate action against a breaching party.Third parties can gain rights through assignment, delegation, or as beneficiaries.Excuses for non-performance include impossibility and frustration of purpose.According to the plain meaning rule, courts interpret unambiguous contract language according to its ordinary meaning, without considering outside evidence.If contract language is ambiguous, courts may consider extrinsic evidence such as prior negotiations, drafts, industry standards, or other contemporaneous writings to determine the parties' intent.Course of performance refers to the parties' behavior under the current contract, while course of dealing refers to their conduct in previous contracts. Both provide insight into the parties' understanding of terms.The parol evidence rule's purpose is generally to prevent parties from using prior or contemporaneous oral or written statements to contradict or change the terms of a complete and final written contract.Common law substantial performance allows enforcement if the essential purpose is met with minor deviations, while the U.C.C.'s perfect tender rule requires goods to conform exactly to contract terms for the buyer to be obligated to accept them.Under the perfect tender rule, a seller might satisfy their obligation despite nonconforming goods by exercising their right to "cure" the defective tender within the contract performance period.A condition precedent is an event that must occur before a party is obligated to perform. An example from the source is a loan disbursement being conditioned on providing proof of income.A material breach is a serious violation going to the essence of the contract that excuses the non-breaching party's performance, while a minor breach is less significant and only entitles the injured party to damages.Upon anticipatory repudiation, the non-breaching party can treat it as a breach and sue immediately, suspend performance and wait, or urge performance and await retraction.An assignment is a transfer of rights under a contract, while a delegation is a transfer of duties. In a delegation, the original party typically remains liable

This lecture explores the principles of contract interpretation, performance obligations, breach of contract, and the rights of third parties. It covers how courts interpret contracts, the significance of performance standards under common law and UCC, the implications of breach, and the conditions under which performance may be excused. The lecture emphasizes the importance of understanding these concepts for effective contract law practice.TakeawaysCourts interpret contracts to reflect the parties' intentions.The plain meaning rule is the starting point for interpretation.Substantial performance allows enforcement despite minor defects.The perfect tender rule requires exact conformity in UCC contracts.Conditions can be express, implied, or constructive.Material breaches excuse the non-breaching party's performance.Anticipatory repudiation allows for immediate legal action.Third parties can acquire rights through assignment or delegation.Impossibility and impracticability can excuse performance.Frustration of purpose can prevent enforcement of contracts.Chapters00:00 Understanding Contract Interpretation04:13 Performance Obligations in Contracts08:01 Breach of Contract and Its Consequences11:49 Rights of Third Parties and Excusing Performancecontract interpretation, performance obligations, breach of contract, third-party rights, contract law, UCC, common law, anticipatory repudiation, conditions, legal doctrines

Short commentary on the papal conclave, we then move back to Israel God's plans for the earth, the land, and the Kingdom. We step back into the Book of Matthew and note the Lord's message and mission in that book and we agree with the Lord's assessment: he was sent only to the lost sheep of the House of Israel and the Gospel of the Kingdom is for Israel alone. Yes, he is Lord of the Gentiles, but he is Son of David to Israel alone. #theologytalk

Beginning on the previous daf - we have a deep dive into the halakhic approach, when it comes to interpreting the biblical text. Rabbi Yehudah HaNasi uses "ribui u-miyut" -- amplification and limitation (vs. "k'lal u-p'rat" -- generalization and specification). Both approaches infer meaning and practical applications from the wording of the biblical text. It turns out that either is acceptable, as long as the scholar is consistent. Which was Rabbi Yehudah HaNasi's approach, though? Also, a return to the case of carrying from private-to-public domain from the mishnah, with the appropriate comparison to the mishnah and its cases at the beginning of Tractate Shabbat.

Last time we were together we considered the philosophy of "natural" prophetic interpretation. This week we consider the other four principles of interpretation, preparing us to interpret Mark 13 with consistency.

Can anyone pick up the Bible and interpret it however they choose? In this episode, we explore the limits and responsibilities of reading Scripture faithfully. While personal study of the Bible is encouraged and spiritually fruitful, authentic interpretation requires humility, historical awareness, and a connection to the broader Christian tradition.We discuss how Scripture was never meant to exist in isolation from the faith community that preserved it, and why personal interpretation, when disconnected from sound teaching and spiritual guidance, can lead to confusion or error. Using insights from the Catholic Catechism and principles of sound biblical reading, we offer a thoughtful look at how believers can rightly approach the Word of God.Giving: https://give.tithe.ly/?formId=6381a2ee-b82f-42a7-809e-6b733cec05a7Link used for the episode: https://www.usccb.org/sites/default/files/flipbooks/catechism/34/#zoom=z#BibleStudy #Scripture #BiblicalInterpretation #FaithAndReason #ChristianTradition #BibleTruth #GodsWord #Hermeneutics #SpiritualFormation #BiblicalFaithfulness #DiscerningScripture

Holy Spirit spoken word, tongues and interpretation, to Harvest Church of God May 4, 2025: "Sit idle no longer says the Lord, for behold the time of marching forward is before you, the land is yours before you the inhabitants will not defeat you for great is your Lord in your midst for I have called you to prevail I have called you to overcome by My word and by My Spirit you will succeed saith God."  

Today we looked at Matthew 27:45-54 as Christ suffered death on the cross for our sins.  We see that He experienced not only the abandonment of the Father but also the wrath of the Father, taking our place.

In 2005, while visiting the gift shop at the downtown Los Angeles MOCA museum, I came upon a blank journal with a cover fashioned from a salvaged vinyl album by The Allman Brothers. It had the pink Capricorn label. As a lover of vinyl I grabbed it, and decided to begin a journal. It's been ten years, and I've been keeping this diary and transcribing my dreams  ever since. Dreams, ideas for songs, and a chronicle of my family and interior life.  I always intended to go back and see if there was some sense of something to be made out of it, and this is the first attempt at that.I hope you find it interesting. Bill Mesnik, 2025“The Interpretation of dreams is the royal road to a knowledge of the unconscious activities of the mind. “ (Sigmund Freud)“In contrast to the subjectivism of the conscious mind the unconscious is objective, manifesting itself mainly in the form of contrary feelings, fantasies, emotions, impulses and dreams, none of which one makes oneself but which come upon one objectively.” (Carl Jung)"Myths are public dreams; dreams are private myths. By finding your own dream and following it through, it will lead you to the myth-world in which you live. But just as in dream, the subject and object, though they seem to be separate, are really the same." (Joseph Campbell)“One day it will have to be officially admitted that what we have christened reality is an even greater illusion than the world of dreams.” (Salvador Dali)

What if quantum mechanics is not fundamental? What if time itself is an illusion? In this new episode, physicist Julian Barbour returns to share his most radical ideas yet. He proposes that the universe is built purely from ratios, that time is not fundamental, and that quantum mechanics might be replaced entirely without the need for wave functions or Planck's constant. This may be the simplest vision of reality ever proposed. As a listener of TOE you can get a special 20% off discount to The Economist and all it has to offer!

Join me for a live webinar – Reframing Suffering: The Little Teachers We'll explore anxiety, jealousy, and shame as sacred teachers. Date: Wednesday, May 14 https://www.drjohnwprice.com/littleteachers-event-2025 Make sure to check out the book Women in the Bible https://www.amazon.com/Women-Bible-Interpretation-Resources-Scripture/dp/0664234011 In this episode of The Sacred Speaks, Dr. John W. Price speaks with Dr. Jaime Clark-Soles, a New Testament professor at SMU and ordained Baptist minister. The discussion covers Dr. Clark-Soles' groundbreaking work on women in the Bible and her forthcoming book on psychedelics and Christianity. Dr. Clark-Soles shares her insights into translation, interpretation, and the often hidden or misrepresented roles of women in sacred texts. The conversation also delves into her personal experiences—including participating in a psilocybin clinical trial—which deepened her spiritual understanding and informed her scholarship. Together, they explore the complexity and richness of scriptural interpretation, the transformative possibilities of embodied reading, and the role of community, humility, and curiosity in authentic spiritual exploration.

Today we examine the differences between tongues and interpretation of tongues. I want to address being filled with the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in an unknown language. We will read what the Apostle Paul said about tongues. We will clarify the difference between our prayer language and tongues with interpretation.To listen to more podcasts and information on books: davidcfriendauthor.comTo subscribe to podcasts: cpnshows.com

In this sermon, Pastor Samuel Nagel examines the account of Jesus turning water into wine at the wedding in Cana, as recorded in John 2:1-11. The narrative is explored through five sections: The Invitation, The Issue, The Instruction, The Interpretation, and The Increase. Pastor Samuel discusses the context of Jewish weddings, the significance of Jesus' response to His mother, and the deeper spiritual implications of this first miracle. The sermon emphasizes that Jesus must be approached on His terms and highlights the prophetic connection to the Messianic age. Ultimately, it points to the future marriage supper of the Lamb in Revelation, urging believers to hold onto the hope and glory found in Jesus Christ.

Ever handed someone a football and forgot to call the play?In this episode of the Thereby Series, Mike Brewer shares a powerful leadership lesson from his early career — and breaks down one of the most common blockers in the Multifamily business: team members who deliver data without solutions.You've seen it.Someone asks for numbers.You get the numbers.You drop them off like a hot potato.And then… silence.No context.No analysis.No suggestion.Thereby, you stall decision-making and frustrate leaders.Mike explains why simply "handing off the ball" isn't enough. What decision-makers really want is insight. Interpretation. A clear point of view. Whether it's from ops, marketing, HR — whatever seat you're in, if you're asked for something, assume the unspoken ask is: “What do I do with this?”And if you're not offering that, you're not just missing a chance to shine — you're slowing down the team.This one's for anyone looking to level up their critical thinking and grow into the kind of professional who adds value, not just volume.Love real-talk lessons that grow leaders from the inside out?Like the video, subscribe to the channel, and share it with someone who's ready to stop playing pass-the-data and start calling the plays.And if you're into strong coffee and strong culture, check out M&M Coffee over on the site — highly endorsed, deeply caffeinated.

"Interpretation of the Beast Vision" - Daniel 7:15-28

Aufführungspraxis. Sperriges Wort, aber absolut essenziell. Denn sobald jemand ein Notenblatt in die Hand gedrückt bekommt, stellt sich die Frage: Wie soll das eigentlich klingen? Schnell oder langsam? Laut oder leise? Mit oder ohne Vibrato? Im 20. Jahrhundert hat man begonnen, Musik der Vergangenheit wieder aufzuführen - und plötzlich waren diese Fragen nicht nur spannend, sondern auch strittig: Wer bestimmt, was "richtig" ist? Und kann es mehr als eine Wahrheit geben? Laury und Uli graben sich durch historische Dogmen, stilistische Freiheiten und ganz persönliche Klangvorstellungen. Unterstützung kommt von Jakob Lehmann, einem der spannendsten jungen Dirigenten der historischen Aufführungspraxis, der heute seine ganz eigene Haltung zur Interpretation entwickelt - zwischen Tradition und Zeitgeist.

To reject conformity to this age (aion) is to actively resist patterns of domination that distort our humanity.JR WOODWARDSummaryIn this episode of the Right Side Up podcast, hosts Danielle Strickland and James Sholl engage with JR Woodward, the National Director of the V3 Movement and author of 'The Scandal of Leadership.' They explore the burdens of leadership, the powers at play within institutions, and the temptations leaders face regarding identity and purpose. The conversation emphasizes the importance of community, the deceptive nature of powers, and the necessity of imitating Christ in leadership. Woodward discusses the scapegoat mechanism and the call to resistance against systemic issues, urging leaders to reflect deeply on their roles and the impact of their decisions.Takeaways* The burden of leadership often feels heavy and requires deep reflection.* Understanding the powers at play in leadership can help navigate challenges.* Institutions can shape leaders in ways that may not align with their values.* Living in the world requires discernment to not be of the world.* Leaders face temptations that challenge their identity and purpose.* The powers can be deceptive, leading to justifications for unethical behavior.* Imitating Christ is essential for authentic leadership.* The scapegoat mechanism can create temporary peace but leads to deeper issues.* Community and proximity to people are vital for effective leadership.* Resistance to the powers is a necessary call for leaders today.Links: Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Right Side Up Podcast02:26 The Burden of Leadership and Writing The Scandal of Leadership06:12 Understanding Powers and Principalities in Leadership10:02 The Role of Institutions and Ideologies14:11 The Temptations of Leadership and Identity18:16 Unmasking the Powers in Today's Context22:08 The Call to Church Leaders and Overcoming Evil29:51 The Impact of Interpretation on Scripture31:10 Navigating Deception and Humility in Leadership32:11 Understanding Mimetic Desire and Its Implications35:33 The Scapegoat Mechanism in Society39:10 Imitating Christ: A Path to Overcoming Powers42:59 The Role of Honor and Identity in Leadership46:35 Proximity to People: A Key to Authentic Leadership50:40 The Dangers of Exceptionalism in Leadership53:34 Faithful Resistance: Embracing the Journey of Self-Emptying56:39 educational-intro-high-short.wav Get full access to Right Side Up: Danielle Strickland at daniellestrickland.substack.com/subscribe

Take your Mark, Get Set, It's Time for The Addict II Athlete Podcast! In this episode of the Addict to Athlete podcast, Coach Blu Robinson engages with Shelly Lefkoe to explore the profound impact of beliefs on addiction and recovery. They discuss how beliefs are formed in childhood, the role of self-identification in addiction, and the importance of changing negative beliefs to foster healing and personal growth. The conversation emphasizes the need for valid interpretations of childhood experiences and how these interpretations can reshape one's self-worth and identity. In this conversation, Shelly Lefkoe and Blu Robinson explore the nature of beliefs, their origins, and how they shape our perceptions and experiences. They discuss the difference between consequences and meaning, emphasizing that events themselves do not carry inherent meaning. The dialogue delves into identifying and transforming limiting beliefs, particularly self-worth and love. Real-life stories illustrate the profound impact of beliefs on life choices and the potential for transformation through self-discovery and empowerment. Takeaways Beliefs formed in childhood significantly impact adult behavior. Understanding the origins of beliefs is crucial for healing. Negative beliefs can be challenged through valid interpretations. Self-worth is often tied to childhood experiences. The process of belief elimination can lead to freedom from addiction. Empowerment comes from recognizing one's power. Support and guidance are essential in changing beliefs. Beliefs are often formed in childhood and can persist into adulthood. Events do not have inherent meaning; meaning is created in our minds. Therapy can help cope with life, but eliminating beliefs can lead to more profound change. Real-life stories demonstrate the power of belief transformation. Everyone has the potential to create a different reality for themselves.

Today Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar discuss things that are not in the Bible along with verses that are often taken out of context. Ray shares that as a new Christian, he wanted to know what wasn't in the Bible. It's easy to see what is, but harder to identify what isn't. Many phrases sound biblical but aren't. One common phrase is “God helps those who help themselves.” In reality, Christianity is about relying on God, not self-reliance. People like this phrase because they crave self-discipline, but true faith means trusting in God's help, not our own efforts.Another phrase is “God won't give you more than you can handle.” In truth, God often allows overwhelming situations so we rely on Him. He isn't looking to harm us but to draw us closer. When we come to the end of ourselves, we find the beginning of Him. Oscar shares a personal experience of realizing his reliance on himself and learning to trust in God's strength. “Cleanliness is next to godliness” suggests outward cleanliness equates to righteousness. But morality alone isn't enough—we need the gospel. Many misquote “Money is the root of all evil.” The Bible actually says, “The love of money is the root of all evil.” Money itself isn't the problem; it's the trust people place in it. Wealth can be a snare, but true contentment comes from trusting Him, not accumulating wealth. “God wants me to be happy” is another misconception. The Bible prioritizes joy over happiness. Happiness depends on circumstances, but joy is rooted in Christ. God is more concerned with our holiness than our comfort. Jesus endured suffering, and if our ultimate pursuit is happiness, we will lose our way. “Name it and claim it” theology is challenged by the story of the paralytic, who was healed because of his friends' faith, not his own declaration. Similarly, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” is often misapplied. Paul's message wasn't that we can accomplish anything we desire, but that we can endure all situations through Christ. A verse commonly found on jewelry, spoken between Jacob and Laban, is often misunderstood. It was actually about distrust, not a general blessing. Likewise, “Judge not lest you be judged” is misinterpreted to mean Christians shouldn't judge at all. However, scripture later says to “judge rightly.” Finally, “God causes all things to work together for good” is often quoted without the full meaning. The rest of the verse explains that God works through our circumstances to make us more like Christ. Even hardships serve a purpose in shaping our faith.Send us a textThanks for listening!

Katie Kitamura's fifth novel is “Audition,” and it focusses on a middle-aged actress and her ambiguous relationship with a much younger man. Kitamura tells the critic Jennifer Wilson that she thought for a long time about an actress as protagonist, as a way to highlight the roles women play, and to provoke questions about agency. “I teach creative writing, and in class often ... if there is a character who the group feels doesn't have agency, that is often brought up as a criticism of the character,” she tells Wilson. Other students will say, “ ‘She doesn't have any agency,' as if a character without agency is implausible or in some way not compelling in narrative terms. But of course, the reality is very few of us have total agency. I think we operate under the illusion or the impression that we have a great deal of agency. But in reality when you look at your life, our choices are quite constricted.” “Audition” comes out this week.
