This is a conversation George had with his friends Seth Abram and Anna Bryant of Restore, and Jason Adam Miller of South Bend City Church, discussing how faith and mental health can be powerful companions on the journey of healing and fully living.Most of us have experienced events in our lives that require healing. It's completely normal. These experiences often call for healing journeys, where we take the time to process, grow, and move forward. Some of us turn to our faith for healing—not away from it—because it has real resources to offer us that are helpful. However, faith spaces can sometimes be places where mental health and illness are most stigmatized and misunderstood. If faith means anything, it should reminds us of our complexity and serve as a way to honor the depth and complexities of being human.We should embrace everything that's good and accessible to us—faith, science, community, prayer, rest, exercise, medicine, therapy, reading, journaling, and more—approaching life in the most holistic way possible.

Tony, Chris and Skraby wrap up from Padres Spring Training by speaing with Jason Adam and Dylan Cease

Tomorrow's 6 p.m. ET Trade Deadline looms large, and this past weekend was dominated by deals as the Rays emerged as big sellers and the Yankees, Phillies, Mets and others did their best to bolster rosters for the stretch drive. On today's episode … ACT 1: THE BIG STORIES (0:38-4:40) To say that the Rays have been active is a massive understatement as they dealt third baseman Isaac Paredes to the Cubs, reliever Jason Adam to the Padres and starter Zach Eflin to the Orioles. They also shipped Randy Arozarena to the Mariners early Friday morning. As far as buyers go, the Yankees landed Jazz Chisholm Jr. from the Marlins and the Phillies acquired reliever Carlos Estéves from the Angels. Got all that? On the injury front, the Braves were dealt another blow as MLB ERA leader Reynaldo López exited his start Sunday with right forearm tightness. Not great and it might force Atlanta into acquiring rotation help in a hurry. ACT 2: AROUND THE LEAGUE (4:41-7:24) Elsewhere in the Majors, rookie shortstop Xavier Edwards hit the first pitch of the game for career homer No. 1, then proceeded to cap off his afternoon with an infield single to complete the second cycle in Marlins history. In Baltimore, Cedric Mullins made a sick over-the-shoulder grab in center to help secure a win over the Padres, Steven Kwan knocked a go-ahead homer to carry the Guardians past the Phillies, and the Dodgers got a big boost from No. 4 prospect River Ryan, who allowed one run over 5 2/3 innings to help beat the Astros. ACT 3: LOOKING AHEAD (7:25-8:17) The Yankees head to Philly tonight to clash with Bryce Harper and Co. in the opener of a three-game series, and in Houston, Paul Skenes – who was tagged for his first career loss in his last outing – makes another do-not-miss start as the Pirates do battle with the Astros.

In this episode of the Searching Inward Podcast, George Stull, Seth Abram and Anna Bryant speak with Jason Adam Miller, a pastor at South Bend City Church and author of the book, When The World Breaks: The Surprising Hope and Subversive Promises in the Teachings of Jesus. Jason is a helpful voice in bringing mental, well-being and faith together in such a meaningful way, so he discusses how to find hope where there's suffering and struggle. He shares his church's mantras and recommended practices when the hard stuff happens such as welcoming emptiness.“When faith works until it doesn't at a particular time in your life, like when you encounter some kind of experience and the faith we were given, sometimes it doesn't work, and you can do one of two things: you can entirely chuck faith or you can open up to maybe a new way of understanding your faith. It could be more hopeful.” -George [05:59]“Often failure's the best thing, right? Like whether you're practicing a musical instrument or spiritual practice, you come to the limit of your capacity and that's actually the liminal space where something really powerful can happen. But if you're afraid to fail, you'll never let yourself go there.” -Jason [16:05]“God created each of us so incredibly uniquely. I mean, you've never seen two apples that look exactly alike. Like they all have very different dimensions, different qualities, and that's what God intended for humanity. That we're all unique. Like no two pieces of any kind of produce are identical, but anything you get coming out of a factory will be 100% identical all the time. And when we're driven to become a carbon copy of something that we were never created to be, I just think it's very beautiful that you're creating this space for people to be fully human, fully unique, fully who they are.” -Anna [18:47]“I think a lot of times people make this misconception that surrender is a passive thing, especially spiritual kind of surrender, when I think returning to the breath is an act of surrender.

Randy Arozarena and Yandy Diaz had positives to take away from the game but it was Curtis Mead who got the spotlight with his first HR of the 2024 season. Jason Adam uplifted the bullpen by providing two innings of clean work. Let us know in the comments what you liked most about Wednesday's game.-What would you include as a feature on the new stadium?-Would the Rays trade Randy Arozarena or Isaac Paredes before the Trade Deadline?-What's the best nickname that the Rays have ever had?Follow Kevin Weiss @KevinWeiss_Follow Ulises Sambrano @SambranoUlisesFollow the show @LockedOnRaysFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…

Jason Miller joins us on the podcast again, this time to talk about Chapter 5 of the Divine Conspiracy, where Willard (and Jason) unpack the Beatitudes for us. Jason is a pastor who never quite felt at home in church, an artist who figured out the sermon is his song, and a teacher who still has some questions. he studied theology in the graduate school at the University of Notre Dame, and follows Jesus with the people of South Bend City Church, an eclectic Christian community known for its thoughtful teaching, inclusive vision, and commitment to its city context.   Jason and I talk about the way that Willard opened the door for us to see a better way of engaging with the Beatitudes, where Jason's own study and work has led him to make sense of these same opening words of Jesus in his sermon and he gives us a soap box about the way we're misreading Luke 4. Jason always gives us so much to think about and today's episode is no different.    jasonadammiller.com When the World Breaks…Jason's newest book Jason on Instagram South Bend City Church Sermons   The Divine Conspiracy - Book Audiobook for the Divine Conspiracy on Spotify   The Divine Conspiracy Project Info and Reading Plan   ------------------ To help support Mike and his work, which includes this podcast, as well as his ability to offer discounted coaching, consulting and preaching to churches, you can make tax-deductible donations to: “WE Ministries” And mail it to: Mike Goldsworthy 6285 E.

A disservice to the discourse Mitigating the Risk vs. Solving it Strider's 4 pieces to the puzzle Arm injuries … will it travel to the back page My favorite topic - Velocity Harder throwing has contributed to injuries: The average four-seam fastball velocity was a record 94.2 mph last season, up from 91.8 mph in 2008, according to MLB Statcast data. Parents buy youth players weighted balls and track them with radar guns, 2008, velocity tracked by PITCH fw/x - camera-based, measured closer to the plate The Athletic The Wind Up Levi Weaver and Ken Rosental How Mason Miller started throwing 100 Last week, we told you about Mason Miller, the A's closer who is throwing harder than anyone else in baseball. Today, Stephen Nesbitt has the story detailing how Miller went from throwing sub-90 mph in college to routinely hitting triple digits. It turns out, Miller had Type 1 diabetes. Miller has gained 65 pounds of muscle, and double digits on his fastball. When we wrote last week, he had six of the 10 fastest pitches this year. He now has eight of the top 10, with Ryan Helsley of the Cardinals (sixth place, 102.4 mph) and Justin Martinez of the D-Backs and Nate Pearson of the Blue Jays (tied for 10th, 102.3) the only interlopers into Miller's domain. 102. - 103 96 = 97 My other favorite subject - Tommy John recovery Since returning from a second TJ, Nathan Eovaldi is 41-27 and became a two-time All-Star, Daniel Hudson has made 420 appearances over a decade and Chris Capuano pitched in 192 games over seven seasons. “You tell them that this is unfortunate, but this is your MRI," he explained. “This is probably why it happened — meaning you threw outside the envelope of your tissue quality — but we have a procedure that can repair your ligament and reconstruct it, kind of a belt/suspenders way that once it heals, the likelihood of you going back to pitching at the same level or above is 95%. Book of Joe will not mention Fleisig's name - will refer to as a prominent bio machnanics expert “We really improved the mechanics or biomechanics of many pitchers from major leagues down to little leagues,” says Glenn Fleisig, the research director at the American Sports Medicine Institute in Birmingham who is also an adviser to MLB and an established leader in pitching biomechanics. “Improving the mechanics means getting more velocity and maximizing your force of using your whole body, but that has come with a price,” Fleisig says. “The weak links are the ligaments and tendons. They have ligaments and tendons holding their joints together, like the Tommy John ligament in the elbow and their rotator cuff tendons in the shoulder. Pirates Paul Skenes unleashes 100 mph heat 34 times during unreal night on mound The Pirates aren't in a rush to bring Paul Skenes up to the big leagues, but the Pittsburgh prospect is making a case to be up there sooner rather than later. Skenes threw 3 ⅓ innings scoreless on Thursday night for Triple-A Indianapolis in an outing where he reached at least 100 mph on 34 of the 43 four-seam fastballs he threw Skenes, the 2023 No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 draft and MLB Pipeline's No. 3 overall prospect, averaged 100.5 mph on his fastball Thursday. “With Paul, we've been very intentional about how we're building his volume coming into the season with a goal of really accomplishing two things,” Pirates general manager Ben Cherington said recently during an interview with The Fan,. “The goal is to try to get him to an appropriate total volume for 2024 coming off last year, when he pitched a full college season and then just a little bit of pro ball. “We don't want to go from zero to 100 right away. Paul's so important to us long term, so we want to be really thoughtful about that.” 4 days rest To manager Derek Shelton, it didn't matter that Jones had thrown just 59 pitches, a staggering 50 for strikes. The Pirates had determined in advance that Jones would pitch only five innings, because he was working on four days' rest for the first time. It starts with good intentions. That's the point that should quiet the howling, if only a little, about the way teams handle young pitchers. Think about it: Who has more incentive to keep pitchers healthy than the teams that depend on them? The problem is that nobody knows how to do it. “I wish I could say there is a perfect formula for it — there is not,” said Ben Cherington, the Pittsburgh Pirates' general manager. “At least, we don't have it. We're just trying to be as thoughtful as we can.” Cherington, who has spent more than 25 years in baseball, offered a nuanced explanation for how we got here. “There's a bit of a paradox, because on one hand — not just as an industry, but the whole pitching ecosystem, which includes amateur baseball — I truly believe pitching people and pitchers themselves understand much more about how to move on the mound to be able to protect the body and be efficient,” Cherington said. “And we have, obviously, much more precise ways of measuring right now than we did when I was a farm director and, honestly, we were just sort of guessing. Around the Horn Judge because of the size of his talent, contract, track record and, well, size draws the most attention for the offensive downturn. He has two hits in his last 20 at-bats with 12 strikeouts — though one of those hits was a winning single in Toronto. So when he struck out in the ninth against Jason Adam when one Judge-ian blast could have sent 47,629 home happy, he was booed by a segment of the crowd. Nestor Cortes, admitted not liking the reception considering all that Judge has done for the organization. Judge said, “I have heard worse and would probably be doing the same [booing] in that situation.” Judge said he feels great and that there are no physical maladies. He said there is not a singular reason for his slow start, noting both mechanical and pitch recognition issues, but mainly saying that he knows he will not be given a lot of pitches to do damage against based on his reputation and he must seize those moments — and so far has failed. He cited the long season and not being worried. About himself or the offense in total. The Athletic: David O'Brein Spencer Strider He also addressed the growing controversy surrounding what some have termed an epidemic of MLB pitching injuries. “There's so many things that go into it. It's such a complex situation, …seeing people talk and implying that they somehow are in a position to know why injuries are happening. Strider is correct, many pieces of the injury puzzle, but they're not all the same size. Complex to solve does not necessarily mean complex to understand. “Yeah, there's just so many people in any topic, in any field, that are probably speaking out of their depth,” Strider said. “You know, we want to solve this problem. Will never solve, goal is to mitigate, Do they understand? “I's a long (discussion),” he said of what is contributing to increased pitching injuries. “Of course, the pitch clock. The condition of the balls. The banning of substances to gain grip. The effective shrinking of the strike zone. All those things are playing a factor in injuries. Guys are bigger, faster and stronger than they've ever been. I mean, you can't take that away. Not mentioned “How you throw the baseball.” Bigger Faster Stronger is the go to phrase, but we're not speaking of Lineman/Linebackers. “The environment of the game should be such that guys are able to compete at their highest ability and stay healthy, or have a chance to.” “It's gonna be a while before I start throwing or anything, but I'll trust the rehab process,” Strider said. . Complex to solve depends upon one's ability to assess, distill, implement 1. Compile the issues which the experts believe impact arm health 2. Rank them according to their severity/ impact 3. Decide what MLB can realistically impact and what they can not 4. Decide which issues can be addressed short term, which ones long term 3. Develop a strategy and time line for each and implement accordingly 5. Get the experts in one room - all speak to the issue through their own narrow lens. 6. Needs to be an individual who can widen the collective lens Around the Horn Boone and Torres After Stanton's home run, he watched Torres keep the rally alive with a 101.9 mph ground-ball single up the middle. Torres had struck out swinging in all three of his at-bats before the hit, and he came into the game hitting just .206 and after making a crucial error in Tuesday's loss. “Offensively, I don't worry about Gleyber,” Boone said. … he's just too talented of a hitter to be held down.” .243 / .259 / .257 / .273 .724 / 6.97 / .761 / .800 It's an ultr-marathon Yankees' offense slipping back to ugly 2023 ways despite Juan Soto's torrid start Instead, the overall offense is too in the Venn diagram with last season — a .237/.332/.378 slash line vs. a 2023 of .227/.304/.397. Judge camouflaged many offensive sins in 2022 with his historic 62 homers and the eight weeks he missed in the heart of last season after injuring his right big toe fully exposed a lineup that was overreliant on one star. Judge because of the size of his talent, contract, track record and, well, size draws the most attention for the offensive downturn. He has two hits in his last 20 at-bats with 12 strikeouts — though one of those hits was a winning single in Toronto. So when he struck out in the ninth against Jason Adam when one Judge-ian blast could have sent 47,629 home happy, he was booed by a segment of the crowd. Nestor Cortes, admitted not liking the reception considering all that Judge has done for the organization.

I talk with filmmaker Jason Adam Maselle, the graduate winner of the 2024 First Run Film Festival. The First Run Film Festival is hosted "by the Kanbar Institute of Film & Television at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts. It is the longest continuously running film festival in New York City, dedicated to showcasing the advanced work of NYU graduate and undergraduate film students."His award-winning film, PUNTER, is phenomenal but so is his own story -- growing up in South Africa and betting on himself by applying to NYU Tisch. The bet paid off, with his films being shown in as diverse locations as SNY and now taking home the top prize at his school's film festival.PUNTER is a great film for several reasons: he establishes his characters within two minutes, the place of South Africa soon after, and the story is free from the stereotypical portrayals that we are all so used to seeing.In this conversation, we talk about Jason's journey; what it's like to win at the First Run Film Festival; how best to describe South African cinema; the ruthlessness required to create a wonderful short film; the role of stereotypes in film; casting kids in film -- and getting the absolute best performance out of them; what the process of shooting in South Africa was like; the role of short films in independent film; and what's next.And we both agree -- chess is a sport.

I hope you'll appreciate this conversation with Jason Adam Miller about his new book on Jesus' most paradoxical and misunderstood words at the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount.  I loved this book, When the World Breaks.  I've not read anything so personal, rich and thought provoking on the Beatitudes.  It's worth your time, especially if you're interested in a way of being, more than a way of believing, a way that might well upend our frames and call us into a deeper life. Jason Adam Miller is a pastor in South Bend and someone worth paying attention to (www.jasonadammiller.com)  Enjoy! 

The Tampa Bay Rays have seemingly built an incredibly strong bullpen with plenty of depth to start the season. There are rays veterans like Pete Fairbanks, Jason Adam, Colin Poche, Shawn Armstrong paired up with newcomers Tyler Alexander Jacob Waguespack and Naoyuki Uwasawa. Who will be the main guy left off? Could Kevin Kelly's amazing 2023 rookie season award him an Opening Day roster spot? Which name will be left off? Is Garrett Cleavinger the next Jake McGee?

There's no such thing as a pure personality type. We're all a mash up of two types – your dominant type and your dominant wing. Knowing your wing is important because they reveal a whole different side of your personality and can explain contradictory elements within your personality. Enneagram Fives are edged between the passionate, intense Four on one side and the loyal but anxious Six on the other. Depending on their dominant wing, these two can look very different. Today, we explore how an Enneagram Five with a dominant Four wing processes and experiences things very intensely on both the intellectual and feeling planes. Jason Adam Miller describes this complicated relationship as “as a civil war between the two.” Tune in for an inside look through the lens of an Enneagram 5w4 and how Jason has learned to balance the two. --- Jason Adam Miller is the founder and lead pastor of South Bend City Church, an eclectic Christian community known for its thoughtful teaching, inclusive vision, and commitment to its city context.
