Stephanie Borgert war *"Change-Gejammer-müde"* und ist ein Kind des Ruhrgebietes ... ... direkt, humorvoll und auf den Punkt. "Mehr Fundament, weniger Make-up! Mehr Gespräch, weniger Geplapper!" Als Ingenieur-Informatikerin hat sie in ihrer Karriere als Angestellte in der IT das erlebt, worüber sie schreibt. Sie fürchtet sich nicht vor Unerwartetem, Unbeständigkeit und Intransparenz. Die hohe Vernetzung und Dynamik unserer komplexen Welt treibt sie an, ihre Führungserfahrung aus der IT-Branche zu nutzen und als Autorin, Coach und Vortragsrednerin einen für komplexe Systeme notwendigen Paradigmenwechsel herbeizuführen. In ihren Büchern dreht es sich um das Meistern der Komplexität, immer praxisbezogen und mit viel Denkanstößen. Auf vielen Kongressen, Kick-Offs, Neujahrempfängen und Inhouse-Events von Unternehmen ist Stephanie Borgert auch als Rednerin dafür bekannt, wertschätzend und direkt zu irritieren und zum komplexen Denken einzuladen. Freuen Sie sich auf eine komplexes Podcast-Gespräch, in dem gemeinsam gedacht wird … mmmhhhh, so denke ich zumindest … Meine Einstiegs-Fragen an Stephanie Borgert waren: 1. Steffie, der Titel "Gemeinsam denken, wirksam verändern" klingt nach einem Appell. Ist das so? 3. Welches Missverständnis in Organisationen und der Gesellschaft hat Dich am meisten motiviert, dieses Buch zu schreiben? Sie wollen mehr wissen? Na, dann ran an den Podcast und ZUHÖREN!!!! Herzlichst Ihre Claudia Lutschewitz

I. THE GRATITUDE OF PAUL'S PRAYER LIFE (vv. 3-8)     1) Paul thanks God and prays ... for a church, most of whose members he has never met Colossians 1:3, "We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you," Colossians 2:1-2, "For I want you to know how great a struggle I have for you and for those at Laodicea and for all who have not seen me face to face..." Carson, "We must ask ourselves how extensive our own praying is. Do all our petitions revolve around our own families and churches, our own cherished but rather small circle of friends? Of course, we are primarily responsible for praying for our own circle... But if that is the furthest reach of our prayers, we become parochial [narrow in outlook or scope]... Our prayers may be an index of how small and self-centered our world is."     2) Paul's gratitude results from paying attention. Paul says to Philemon: "[4] I thank my God always when I remember you in my prayers, [5] because I hear of your love and of the faith that you have toward the Lord Jesus" (Philemon 4-5) Paul says to the Colossian church (that Philemon hosted in his house): "[3] We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, [4] since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love that you have for all the saints," (Colossians 1:3-4) Paul is listening! He is paying attention to others. Acts 15:36, "Paul said to Barnabas, 'Let us return and visit the brothers in every city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are.'" Paul cares greatly about their spiritual state! Carson, "[I]t will do us good to fasten on reports of Christians in several parts of the world we have never visited, find out what we can about them, and learn to intercede with God on their behalf. Not only is this an important expression of the fellowship of the church, but it is also a critical discipline that will enlarge our horizons, increase our ministry, and help us to become world Christians." When a fellow believer comes to your mind, what is your first thought? Irritation? Annoyance? Jealousy? Bitterness? What is Paul's first thought? Gratitude! Philemon 4 "I thank my God always when I remember you in my prayers," Colossians 1:3-4, "We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, [4] since we heard of your faith..." Gratitude for what? Their faith, love, and heavenly hope. Paul credits God with their own faith and love. Philippians 1:29, "For it has been granted [Dictionary: to give graciously] to you that for the sake of Christ you should not only believe in him but also suffer for his sake…” Colossians 3:12, "Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience,"     3) Paul thanks God for the gospel's fruit as it comes through human means (vv. 5b-8) Epaphras, after being converted under Paul, brings the good news to Colossea! (Last week's sermon)   II. THE FOCUS OF PAUL'S PRAYER LIFE (vv. 9-12) Spiritual growth is always the dominant concern, over the physical! Carson, "Suppose, for example, that 80 or 90 percent of our petitions ask God for good health, recovery from illness, safety on the road, a good job, success in exams, the emotional needs of our children, success in our mortgage application, and much more of the same. How much of Paul's praying revolves around equivalent items? If the center of our praying is far removed from the center of Paul's praying, then even our very praying may serve as a wretched testimony to the remarkable success of the processes of paganization in our life and thought. That is why we need to study the prayers of Paul." See Matthew 6:31-33, "Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?' or ‘What shall we drink?' or ‘What shall we wear?' [32] For the Gentiles [the pagans] seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. [33] But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." So what does Paul focus on in his prayer?     1) Paul asks God to fill believers with the knowledge of his will (v. 9) "[9] And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding," This may seem simple, yet it takes "all spiritual wisdom and understanding" in the complicated nature of life to know what is best. Doug Moo, "[This] suggests the ability to discern the truth and to make good decisions based on that truth." "spiritual wisdom" means wisdom from the Holy Spirit. (Not how many use the word "spiritual" today) EXAMPLE: Colossians 4:5-6, "Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of [= redeeming] the time. [6] Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person." How do I best love a fellow Christian who is in sin? How do I best evangelize a co-worker or family member? I only have limited money, how much do I spend, save, and give away? to whom? how often? How do I honor my parents if they are unbelievers and disagree with my faith? What does it look like to "speak the truth in love" when dealing with a rebellious student? or hostile unebeliver? or a timid Christian friend? When does hard work become sinful preoccupation with your career? When does rest become laziness?  You are posting something *true* on social media, but unsure if it will be edifying or needlessly distracting or contentious     2) Paul's purpose in prayer is that believers might be truly pleasing to the Lord (v. 10a)   v. 10 "so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him:" Knowledge must lead to action! "Knowing" God's will (with all spiritual wisdom and understanding) must lead to "walking/living out" God's will. We must walk in a manner worthy of the Lord. (Not earning, not perfection; but rather living "in accord with" the Lord, fully pleasing to Him)     3) Paul prays for four characteristics of a life that is pleasing to the Lord (v. 10b-12)   This will produce, among others, these four characteristics... "BEARING FRUIT in every good work" (v. 10b): Fruit is about character transformation and faithfulness, not mere "results." "INCREASING in the knowledge of God;" (v. 10c): it will lead to a fully experiential knowledge of God, as we walk with Him "BEING STRENGTHENED with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy;" (v. 11) "[Endurance] is what faith, hope, and love bring to an apparently impossible situation, [patience] what they show to an apparently impossible person." To endure ... takes power; to endure patiently with joy takes tremendous power "according to his glorious might." "GIVING THANKS to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light." (v. 12) Paul further reminds them why they should be thankful: (vv. 13-14) vv. 13-14 "He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, [14] in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins." All of this should be seasoned by thankfulness to the Father for our share in the "inheritance of the saints of light."   III. THE DEVOTION OF PAUL'S PRAYER LIFE     1) WHY does Paul pray so often for so many? Colossians 1:3, 9, "We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, .... [9] And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you," Carson, "In short, Paul is telling the Colossians that since hearing about them he has made it a point to intercede with God on their behalf in his disciplined, regular prayer times; he has 'not stopped praying' for them."  Carson, "Paul again and again prays for ... the Colossian believers, as if the supply must be constantly renewed." Think of it like watering the grass or flowers. It must be done continually! Colossians 4:12-13, "Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ Jesus, greets you, always struggling on your behalf in his prayers, that you may stand mature and fully assured in all the will of God."     2) HOW does Paul pray so often for so many? Philemon 4-5, "I thank my God always when I remember you [singular] in my prayers," G.K. Beale, "Paul is praying specifically for Philemon [the 'you' is singular], which implies that his daily prayer list must have been extensive." Richard Phillips, "When we consider the large number of people for whom Paul says that he is praying, he must have had not only a devoted prayer life, but also a highly organized one." APPLICATION: Don't turn these points from Carson into legalisms, but take them as practical suggestions to help you pray in a more regular, organized, and focused way. I. PLAN TO PRAY Don Carson, "Much praying is not done because we do not plan to pray. We do not drift into spiritual life; we do not drift into disciplined prayer. We will not grow in prayer unless we plan to pray. That means we must self-consciously set aside time to do nothing but pray. What we actually do reflects out highest priorities. That means we can proclaim our commitment to prayer until the cows come home, but unless we actually pray, our actions disown our words. This is the fundamental reason why set times for prayer are important: they ensure that vague desires for prayer are concretized in regular practice. Paul's many references to his 'prayers' suggest that he set aside specific times for prayer -- as apparently Jesus himself did (Luke 5:16)... Unless we plan to pray we will not pray." ('Praying with Paul,' p. 1-2). II. ADOPT PRACTICAL WAYS TO FIGHT MENTAL DRIFT Don Carson, "Adopt practical ways to impede mental drift.... [Perhaps] articulate your prayers, moving your lips...to...help deter meandering.... A great way to begin to overcome this problem is to pray through various biblical passages. In other words, it is entirely appropriate to tie your praying to your Bible reading... [The] truths and entailments [in your daily Scripture reading] can be the basis of a great deal of reflective praying. [Another option is] journaling [your prayers.] III. DEVELOP A SYSTEM FOR YOUR PRAYER LISTS Carson, "Develop a system for your prayer lists. It is difficult to pray faithfully for a large spread of people and concerns without developing prayer lists that help you remember them." Carson's personal "system": "I kept a manila folder in my study, where I pray... The first sheet ... was a list of people for whom I ought to pray regularly: ... My wife..., my children and a number of relatives, followed by a number of close friends... [Then] institutional names on that sheed [which] included [my] local church ... and the seminary where I now teach. The second sheet ... listed short-range ... concerns that would not remain indefinitely... In other words, the first sheet focused on people for whom I prayed constantly; the second included people and situations for whom I might pray for a short[er] ... time, but probably not indefinitely. The next item ... was the list of the students ... for whom I was particularly responsible....and of course this list changed from year to year." IV. KEEP YOUR PRAYERS TIED TO SCRIPTURE V.

Jesus teaches that our daily frustrations aren't just obstacles-they are signals, showing us where our hearts need healing, attention, and grace.  Luke 10: Mary and Martha.

Der Zwölftagekrieg ist vorbei. Zeit, um Fehler zu analysieren und Korrekturen vorzunehmen. Um dann erneut gegeneinander anzutreten?Ein Standpunkt von Hermann Ploppa.Die Internationale der Rüstungsindustrie bastelt ständig an technischen Innovationen. Und alle Jahre wieder muss es zeitlich und regional begrenzte Kriege geben, um die Qualität der eigenen Produkte im Ernstfall erproben zu können. Bei erfolgreichem Einsatz steigert das den Marktwert der eigenen Mordware. Auf der nächsten Waffenmesse kann man dann mit dem Prädikat „combat proven“, also: kampferprobt, die potenziellen Käufer überzeugen.Dabei ging es bei dem nun beendeten „Zwölftagekrieg“ zwischen Israel, USA und Iran durchaus auch um ganz handfeste Interessengegensätze. Der Ausgang dieses von Israel alleine provozierten Waffengangs überraschte die westliche Wertegemeinschaft beträchtlich. Denn der Iran erwies sich als harte Nuss, an denen sich USA und Israel einige Zähne ausgebissen haben. Bevor der Iran diesen Krieg gewinnen konnte, wechselten die USA kurzfristig aus der Rolle des Verbündeten Israels in die Rolle des Schiedsrichters, um das Spiel vorzeitig abzupfeifen und eine Erholungspause für Israel herauszuholen. Doch das blutige Spiel ist keineswegs zu Ende. Die gegnerischen Mannschaften nutzen jetzt die von Trump erzwungene Spielpause, um Kräfte zu sammeln für die nächste Runde. Derweil sind die Analysten auf beiden Seiten dabei, die eigenen Fehler aufzuspüren und neue Strategien zu entwickeln. Wir schauen den Analysten dabei über die Schulter. Wo wurde gepatzt, und wo ist noch mehr drin?Das Scheitern der Schock-StrategieWie bereits an dieser Stelle beschrieben, resultierten die Anfangserfolge Israels aus extremer Perfidie im Umgang mit dem Gegner . Es gibt nämlich immer informelle Kanäle, über die sich potenzielle Kriegsgegner verständigen. Und über diese Kanäle sicherten Israel und die USA dem Iran zu, in der Woche vor der nächsten Verhandlungsrunde über Nukleare Aufbereitung am Sonntag, dem 15. Juni, keinesfalls Angriffe zu starten . Solche Verabredungen sind das A und O, um überhaupt Gespräche zwischen Kombattanten möglich zu machen. Ein elementares Grundvertrauen. Und dieses Grundvertrauen wurde von Israel und den USA sträflich verletzt. Während sich die Unterhändler Irans sowie die Generäle und Nuklearexperten sicher fühlten, wurden sie in ihren Betten mitsamt Familie verbrannt. Dieser Bruch des Ehrenwortes sollte im Schockverfahren den Iran enthaupten. Die Kalkulation war, dass ein enthaupteter Iran sich im Sturmlauf, vielleicht noch flankiert von israelischen Bodentruppen, ganz schnell und schmerzlos erobern lässt. Die Blaupause dafür war die Eroberung des Irak im Jahre 2003. Die Shock and Awe-Methode hatte damals einwandfrei funktioniert.Im Falle des Iran jedoch ging die Rechnung nicht auf. Anscheinend hatte die iranische Führung den schnellen Ersatz des verlorenen Generalstabs zuvor geübt. Der personelle Wechsel führte zu keiner Irritation, die der Feind hätte ausschlachten können. Und damit war der Überraschungseffekt von sehr kurzer Dauer. Die neue militärische Führung leitete eine sehr kluge Gegenoffensive ein. Die Iraner schossen in der ersten Gegenoffensive mit Marschflugkörpern zunächst ihre ältesten Ladenhüter auf Israel. Der viel gepriesene Eiserne Dom Israels arbeitete seine besten Geschosse an iranischem Militärschrott ab. Mit jeder der insgesamt 19 iranischen Angriffswellen wurden die Geschosse besser, moderner, zielgenauer. Dabei wurden nicht mehr nur symbolisch irgendwelche Geschosse in israelisches Gebiet geknallt, wie man es bislang von den Huthis oder der Hamas gewohnt war. Nein. Stattdessen trafen die iranischen Marschflugkörper die Zentren israelischer Militärmacht substanziell....https://apolut.net/nach-dem-krieg-ist-vor-dem-krieg-von-hermann-ploppa/ Hosted on Acast.

Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz hat bei zwei öffentlichen Auftritten bekräftigt, dass es für westliche Waffenlieferungen an die Ukraine keine Reichweitenbeschränkungen mehr gebe. Die Ukraine dürfe damit nun auch Ziele auf russischem Staatsgebiet angreifen – ein Signal, das nicht nur im Kreml für Irritation sorgt.

Ein Zeitalter der digitalen Souveränität kündigt sich nicht mit Pauken und Trompeten an – sondern mit schleichender Irritation. Matthias Stürmer nennt es den Moment, in dem selbst die eigene Mutter versteht, woran man arbeitet. Die Sorge um digitale Selbstbestimmung ist vom Nischeninteresse zur politischen und ökonomischen Schlüsselfrage geworden. Das Überraschende dabei: Nicht ein spektakulärer Technologiesprung, sondern die politischen Risiken der Gegenwart – eine erratische US-Regierung, exzessive Lizenzgebühren, plötzliche Abhängigkeiten – lassen das Thema plötzlich akut erscheinen.Matthias' stärkstes Argument ist kein ideologisches, sondern ein betriebswirtschaftliches. Die digitale Abhängigkeit sei wie tägliches Taxifahren zur Arbeit: teuer, bequem, aber unsinnig, wenn man dauerhaft unterwegs ist. Europäische Alternativen existieren längst, auch wenn sie nicht mit denselben gigantischen Service-Katalogen glänzen. Der Mythos, nur US-Konzerne könnten Cloud und KI wirklich beherrschen, fällt spätestens dann, wenn man sieht, dass ihre Technologien ohnehin auf Open-Source-Grundlagen basieren.Die entscheidende Einsicht liegt in der Analogie zur Energiewende: Digitale Infrastruktur ist öffentliche Infrastruktur. Wer Wertschöpfung, Sicherheit und Innovationsfähigkeit lokal erhalten will, muss digitale Dienste als Gemeingut denken – nicht als bequemes Abo-Modell aus Übersee. Und wie bei jeder echten Transformation braucht es politische Weichenstellungen, persönliche Haltung und ein bisschen, ja: Zweckoptimismus.Zu Gast:Matthias Stürmer, Professor für Digitale Nachhaltigkeit an der Berner Fachhochschule und der Berner Universität.Create your podcast today! #madeonzencastrMentioned in this episode:The Elephant Festival 2026 – Jetzt Ticket sichern!13.

Sudden and high adventure in the most stolid and regular of lives: "A Source of Irritation" by Stacy Aumonier

Dieses Mal zu Gast Ted Gaier und Schorsch Kamerun von den Goldenen Zitronen. Die Goldenen Zitronen feierten unlängst ihr 40-jähriges Jubiläum. Diese Folge ist die Verneigung vor einer Band, die über all die Jahre nie stehenblieb und den bequemen Weg vermied. Jan lernte die Goldenen Zitronen bereits 1986 als 15-Jähriger kennen. Er war begeistert von ihrer musikalischen Energie, ihrem Style und ihrem Humor. Mit ihrem originellen künstlerischen Ausdruck waren die Goldenen Zitronen eine der Bands, die Jan in dem Gedanken bestärkten, selbst eine Band zu gründen. Der Weg der Goldenen Zitronen beeindruckt auch deshalb, weil die Band künstlerisch fast ständig im Wandel war. Der von Rockabilly grundierte Funpunk der Anfangstage sog über die Jahre diverse Einflüsse auf. Die Goldenen Zitronen entwickelten einen sehr autarken avantgardistischen Postpunk-Sound, der sich vermutlich am besten als Goldies-Style bezeichnen lässt. Auch die Texte waren bei den Goldenen Zitronen von Beginn an wichtig. Zunächst war der Grundimpuls der Band ein Aufbegehren gegen das normierte Nachkriegsdeutschland und die im Jugendprotest vorherrschende Hippiekultur. Bald entwickelte die Band jedoch einen konkreteren politischen Anspruch. Dieser machte weder vor grundsätzlicher Systemkritik noch vor dialektischer Selbstkritik halt. Beim Gespräch über Politik wurden in dieser Episode auch Punkte angesprochen, die Jan kritisch sieht. Zum Beispiel das Verhältnis der Band zur Militanz und zum deutschen Terrorismus. Ted und Schorsch waren hier auch durchaus in einigen Dingen unterschiedlicher Meinung. Dies war nur einer von vielen Einblicken, den die beiden letzten verbliebenen Gründungsmitglieder der Goldenen Zitronen in diesem langen Gespräch gewährten. Insgesamt sprachen Ted, Schorsch und Jan über dreieinhalb Stunden. Das ist Reflektor-Rekordlänge!

In today's episode, I share an issue I've been thinking about for a while - finding the balance between speaking up and letting things go.In other words, when things annoy us or seem unjust, should we speak up and say something? Or should we prioritise our mental health and let it go? I share some of my own views with this and encourage you to get in touch with yours too. I also share lots of expressions related to this topic.Show notes page - https://levelupenglish.school/podcast319Sign Up for Free Lessons - https://www.levelupenglish.school/#freelessonsJoin Level Up English - https://courses.levelupenglish.schoolBy becoming a member, you can access all podcast transcripts, listen to the private podcast and join live lessons and courses on the website.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. Have you ever paused to think about how deeply God knows you? He doesn't just see you, he studies you with love, care, and patience. God knows every detail of your heart—your questions, doubts, struggles, and joys. And here's the beautiful truth: he is for you.Luke 15:3-7 reminds us of the parable of the lost sheep. When we wander, he isn't scolding us or shaking his head in frustration. He is the Good Shepherd who searches for his lost sheep, rejoicing when he brings us back into his arms.When we bring our questions to him, he doesn't turn us away. Instead, he welcomes them. He is not annoyed by our curiosity or struggles but delights in drawing us closer to him.No matter where you are, he is with you, studying you with love and longing for you to know how much you are cared for.

In this episode, I explore the profound teachings of Carl Jung, focusing on six essential laws that can help individuals master their minds and improve their mental health. Each law emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, the challenge of thinking critically, the necessity of facing fears, the value of action over words, the acceptance of one's darkness, and the reflections on irritations as mirrors to self-understanding.  Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction to Carl Jung's Philosophy 01:02 The Challenge of Thinking and Judging 03:55 Understanding Your Identity 06:07 Facing Your Fears 09:48 The Importance of Action 12:41 Embracing Your Darkness 14:36 Reflections on Irritation and Self-Understanding - See discounts for all the products I use and recommend: https://everybodyspod.com/deals/ - Shop For Everybody  Use code SFE10 for 10% OFF

Mit Susanne Schwarz und Katharina Schipkowski. In Los Angeles wütet das Feuer: 25 Menschen sind bisher gestorben, immer noch werden Personen vermisst, 12.000 Häuser sind zerstört. Hat das mit dem Klimawandel zu tun? Die Klimakrise kommt im Bundestagswahlkampf kaum vor. Was eigentlich passieren müsste, hat die Klima-Allianz diese Woche vorgelegt, ein Dachverband ökologischer und sozialer Gruppen. Unions-Kanzlerkanditat Friedrich Merz hat diese Woche mit einer Aussage irritiert, in der er vermeintlich der ökologischen Transformation der Industrie eine Absage erteilte. Kurz später stellte sich heraus: Er wurde falsch zitiert, hatte aber die schnelle Verfügbarkeit von ausreichend grünem Wasserstoff infrage gestellt. Tatsächlich kommt der Markt für den Energieträger kaum in Gang. -- Das klima update° wird jede Woche von Spender:innen unterstützt. Wenn auch du dazu beitragen willst, geht das HIER https://www.verein-klimawissen.de/spenden. Wir danken hier und jetzt - aber auch noch mal namentlich im Podcast (natürlich nur, wenn ihr zustimmt).

In this episode of The Skin Report, Dr. Simran Sethi takes a deep dive into the popular skincare ingredient niacinamide. Known as Vitamin B3, niacinamide is a common addition to serums and moisturizers, praised for its ability to hydrate the skin, reduce hyperpigmentation, and build a strong skin barrier.

Dr. Sethi explains how niacinamide works, its benefits, and how to choose the right concentration for your skin type. She also discusses when it's best to avoid this ingredient, especially for those with sensitive skin or after certain procedures like chemical peels and microneedling. Whether you're a skincare enthusiast or just curious about how to maximize your routine, this episode offers valuable insights into niacinamide's role in skincare and how to use it effectively.
