Read OnlineJesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples, saying, “The scribes and the Pharisees have taken their seat on the chair of Moses. Therefore, do and observe all things whatsoever they tell you, but do not follow their example. For they preach but they do not practice.” Matthew 23:1–3Why do you do what you do? Even when our actions appear good, reverent, or charitable, they can be motivated by pride. The scribes and Pharisees struggled with this very sin. They often performed their acts of piety and charity not to glorify God but to win the praise of others. They were quick to judge others while failing to practice what they preached. This hypocrisy led many to view them with disdain. Therefore, Jesus' public rebukes of the religious leaders must have consoled those who had been mistreated under their leadership. His words provided both corrections and hope for those seeking authentic faith.Jesus condemns the religious leaders more than a dozen times throughout the Gospels, making them a significant aspect of His mission. Jesus came to bring both healing and truth, and confronting hypocrisy was necessary to restore justice within the community. But why did Jesus take such a firm stance against them? Wouldn't it have been easier to seek peace and unity through kindness, avoiding conflict and division?It's important to understand that true kindness is a fruit of charity. But for kindness to be truly charitable, it must always seek the good of the other. Charity is not merely about making people feel good; it is rooted in divine truth. If Jesus had simply said, “We should be nice to the scribes and Pharisees, no matter what,” this would not have been true charity. Jesus' rebukes sought to awaken the religious leaders from their spiritual blindness and protect the people from their harmful example. True charity often requires correction.In our own lives, we must also examine our motivations. Are our acts of piety and charity truly for the glory of God, or are they done to be seen and praised by others? When we embrace the Gospel, we must accept that we might sometimes hear uncomfortable truths. Genuine love does not shy away from correction but seeks the ultimate good of the other, even when it challenges us to change. Therefore, we must see ourselves as the scribes and Pharisees, needing rebuke and correction.Additionally, there are times when God uses us to correct others out of love. Parents do this for their children, guiding them with patience and tenderness so they may grow in virtue. In the same way, teachers are called to instruct their students, imparting knowledge and forming their character with care and wisdom. Spiritual directors, priests, and confessors gently guide souls on the path to holiness, helping them to discern areas of growth and sin, always in the light of God's mercy and truth.Reflect today on Jesus' charitable words to the scribes and Pharisees. First, hear Jesus' words spoken to you. Humble yourself so you are open to such loving rebukes. Allow yourself to become more aware of your pride and self-righteousness so that you can change. Also, be open to how God might want to use you to confront others charitably. While Jesus alone is the Judge, He sometimes uses us as instruments of His judgment for those open to hearing His voice through us. Humbly consider this role, allowing God to use you as He wills. Always speak with gentleness and love, imparting the hard truth another needs to hear, never with cruelty or harshness.My just Lord, Your just judgments flow from the unfathomable charity within Your Sacred Heart. You desire all men to be saved and to turn to You. Please humble me so that I never reject Your just judgments but receive them with joy so that I may repent and grow closer to You. I also place myself at Your service as an instrument of Your justice for others in accordance with Your will. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: Jesus wakes lazarus by Robert Wilhelm Ekman  Source: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

Baptism is considered THE entrance to Christian faith -- but Christians vary widely in practice and belief on what baptism does, who it is for, and why we do it. So for part 10 of 12 on “What is the Nicene Creed?” we unpack this lines:"We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins."So we wade into the muddy waters of the River Jordan to ask: what is sin, what does it mean to be forgiven, and how does this apply when some people are literally infants when they are baptized? What does God do when we are baptized? And why is this significant that it only happens once? +++Like what you hear?

In today's episode, I talk about why money is a bad word for so many people and how that belief quietly limits what we receive. I share how losing over $100 million forced me to rethink giving, faith, and the difference between receiving and being given. Kindness and love are infinite, but money and time are manmade constructs that require awareness and alignment. I explain why the more you give, the more you're given, and how raising your frequency increases what you're able to see and receive. When you align your behaviors with your divine direction, money becomes a tool for impact, joy, and freedom.

In this episode of First Light 27, Chuck dives into something we all wrestle with — people. Our purpose isn't complicated, but it is challenging: love others, be kind to everyone, and lead with patience even when it's not returned. In a world that's quick to judge and quicker to react, we're called to slow down and let love surround the way we treat people. The Bible reminds us in 1 Corinthians 13:4–7 that love is patient and kind. It doesn't envy, it doesn't boast, it isn't proud. That kind of love changes how we handle conflict, how we speak, and how we show up daily. And in John 13:35, we're told that people will know we belong to Him by the way we love one another. At the end of the day, our faith isn't just something we talk about. It's something people should feel when they're around us. Patience in frustration. Kindness in disagreement. Grace when it's undeserved. People matter. And loving them well is part of the purpose we were created for.

Mountain Trails sits nestled on Winchester's Old Town walking mall at 115 North Loudoun Street, where owner Garry Green has cultivated something rare in retail: a store that feels like a community. After 34 years in business—the last 13 at this location—Garry has discovered what he calls "the Loudoun Street Magic," especially on Saturday evenings when the mall comes alive. He shares his passion during this episode of The Valley Today, with host Janet Michael and cohost Brady Cloven, executive director of Friends of Old Town. Mountain Trails' move from its original Cork Street location transformed the business entirely. "The demographic literally went from climbers, backpackers, and travelers to just everyone," Garry explains. The visibility proved phenomenal, and the store has become an integral part of Winchester's identity, appearing regularly in social media posts and drawing visitors from states away. Education Over Sales: A Revolutionary Approach What sets Mountain Trails apart isn't just their inventory—it's their philosophy. Garry's mission statement centers on creating "a safer, more enjoyable wilderness or travel experience," which means the staff focuses on qualifying customer needs rather than pushing products. "We are not here to sell things to you," Garry emphasizes. "We try to qualify your needs and provide for those needs." This approach resonates deeply in a business where equipment failures can have serious consequences. Whether customers are paddling the Shenandoah River for the first time or heading to Mount Everest base camp, their concerns receive equal validation. Garry recalls outfitting a gentleman for climbing Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak at nearly 20,000 feet. When the climber returned, he shared a remarkable moment: "I was at 16,000 feet and I heard you talking to me." The boots and backpack performed exactly as Garry had promised—the ultimate validation for the staff. Curating the Right Gear for Every Adventure Every single item in Mountain Trails serves a purpose. "Everything in Mountain Trails other than, let's just say a t-shirt, needs to function," Garry explains. "It has a job. And it needs to do that when you need it to do it." From rain gear to sock structure—yes, even socks matter—the curation process ensures customers receive appropriate equipment for their specific adventures. The store's tagline captures this breadth: "hiking, climbing, trekking, travel." However, their secondary motto, "Quality Outdoor Outfitters," opens the door wider. International travelers heading to Peru or around the world find the education and experience they need. Summer canoeists discover dry bags and quick-drying clothing. Skiers find bibs and cross-country equipment. Technical rock climbers locate harnesses and safety gear. Meeting Customers Where They Are Understanding the customer's experience level proves crucial to Garry's approach. The outdoor industry's biggest emerging demographic is what he calls "the casual adventurer"—people who want to hike two miles to a waterfall with trail runners, trekking poles, and a day pack, then return to town for lunch. These customers have vastly different needs from long-distance trekkers carrying their "house on their back" for multiple days. "Not everybody needs a $400 three-layer Gore-Tex rain jacket," Garry points out. While climbers heading to Mount Everest might need that level of protection, an $80 waterproof jacket works perfectly for someone's golf bag. This honesty builds trust. Moreover, the relationship continues as customers grow in their outdoor pursuits, returning to upgrade their gear as they tackle more challenging adventures. The Power of Kindness and Experience When hiring staff, Garry's number one criterion isn't outdoor expertise—it's kindness. "You have to put that customer's best interest at heart above anything else," he insists. This philosophy creates what international visitors have called "the feel" of Mountain Trails, something that distinguishes it from sterile big-box retailers. The staff's personal experience matters tremendously. "They've been wet, cold, hungry, tired," Garry notes. "They're here to help you suffer better." Garry himself spent years guiding in Alaska and running outdoor adventure programs for the U.S. Air Force, helping service members decompress after deployment. He recalls a winter camping trip where a participant thought she wouldn't survive the night because her "butt was cold"—she hadn't inflated her sleeping pad. After inflating it and adding hand warmers, she proclaimed he'd saved her life. "You passed through a window," he told her, referring to those challenging moments all outdoor enthusiasts eventually face. Beyond the Hardcore: Everyday Customers Welcome While Mountain Trails caters to serious adventurers, everyday shoppers find unexpected value. Janet shares how the store helps her buy gifts for her mother-in-law who bikes the C&O Canal—despite Janet's self-proclaimed lack of outdoor interests. "I can come in here and just say, she does this and you can help me find the perfect gift for her," she explains. The store even welcomes those who simply want to look the part. "I love this store even though I am not an outdoors person," Janet admits. Garry laughs, acknowledging that sometimes "it's all about the look." This inclusive approach means everyone feels welcome, whether they're heading into the wilderness or just want quality gear for weekend activities. A Global Reputation Built on Local Service The store's reputation extends far beyond Winchester. Visitors from Syracuse, Cleveland, and even international locations make Mountain Trails a regular stop. Garry recalls a family from Israel who declared it their favorite outdoor store globally. "We go into these stores all over the world, and this one is our favorite so far," they told him. What impressed them? The feel of the place—something intangible that staff members hear about regularly. This atmosphere stems from Garry's operating principle: "Everybody's welcome until they're not." The staff genuinely cares, creating an environment that feels more like a community gathering space than a transaction-focused retail outlet. Social media serves not primarily as a sales tool but as "an instrument of familiarity," sharing articles about climbing, skiing, and outdoor adventures that customers want to read over their morning coffee. Connecting with Mountain Trails In mid-March, Mountain Trails will transition from their winter hours into regular hours: Monday through Thursday 10 AM to 7 PM, Fridays and Saturdays 10 AM to 8 PM, and Sundays noon to 5 PM. Customers can find them on Facebook and Instagram or visit mountain-trails.com for basic information, though the real experience requires stepping through their door on the walking mall. Old Town Winchester: Building Community Through Events Chocolate Escape Perseveres Through Arctic Conditions The second half of the conversation shifts focus to Brady Claven, executive director of Friends of Old Town Winchester, who shares updates on recent events and upcoming attractions. February's Chocolate Escape faced brutal weather—17-degree temperatures with windchill predictions of negative 10 degrees—yet determined participants still filled the walking mall with their maps, hitting every participating location. Approximately 30 merchants participated in the event, which aims not just to distribute chocolate but to drive foot traffic into stores during cold months. The strategy worked. Faire Isles, for instance, welcomed numerous first-time visitors, and overall feedback indicated people discovered stores they'd never visited before. "The point of it is to get people into stores," Brady explains, noting that participants might not linger outside as long in freezing weather, but they spent more time browsing inside. Celebrating Black History Month Through Partnership Friends of Old Town partnered with NAACP Winchester and secured generous sponsorship from Valley Health to present three Black History Month events. Typewriter Studio hosted a spoken word and art gallery night featuring Monica James and representatives from Selah Theater. Bright Box presented "History and Cocktails" with Nick Powers from the MSV delivering an outstanding historical talk about the Valley's Black history, tying into the upcoming VA250 celebration. Finally, Bistro Sojo offered a small plates and jazz night with a $35-per-person special menu and live performance by SU. Spin to Winchester: Pedaling for Progress Friends of Old Town's second annual Spin to Winchester fundraiser brought participants together inside Valley Health for a 45-minute stationary bike class. Each rider crowd-funded their participation, raising a minimum of $250, with prizes awarded for most funds raised, sweatiest rider, and highest mileage. The event exceeded expectations, hitting 120% of its goal and attracting 20 more individual donors than the previous year. "It's very apparent by the end of this 45-minute class, certain people are, myself included, just dripping with sweat," Brady admits, describing the intense workout led by instructor Pam from Valley Health. Despite the physical challenge—including what seemed like endless "last hills"—the fundraiser's success directly supports Old Town programs and events throughout the year. Taylor Pavilion: A Transformation Underway Ground has broken on the Taylor Pavilion renovation, with completion targeted for before WineFest during Apple Blossom season. The transformation will create a social gathering space that addresses a common community need. "We do hear a lot from people that say, well, you know, there's really not a space if I don't wanna drink or if I don't want to eat," Brady notes. The new pavilion will offer a place where people can grab a bagel and sit, play chess, listen to music, or simply enjoy being on the mall. It will serve as a meeting point before art classes at Typewriter Studio or ShenArts—a place for friends to gather with coffee and catch up before heading to other destinations. Notably, the infamous "ping pong table on an incline" from the conceptual rendering will not materialize, though Brady jokes they should install a commemorative statue. Celtic Fest Returns March 14th Looking ahead to March, Celtic Fest promises to be a highlight. Scheduled for Saturday, March 14th from noon to 5 PM, the event will feature approximately 35 vendors lining the mall from the south end near Hideaway northward. Partners include Ravenwood Foundation, which brings expertise in outdoor Highland games. City Pipes and Drums will perform throughout the day. Faire Isles plans Irish dancers in their alcove, while other merchants prepare special attractions. Piper Dan's and Union Jack's—recently reopened after flooding—will participate, with Brady hoping to coordinate a special menu. Additionally, Brady plans to transform the museum lawn into a kids' Highland games zone, where children ages four to ten can throw foam logs, compete in disc throwing, and win prizes. Staying Connected Those interested in Old Town Winchester events can follow Friends of Old Town on Facebook and Instagram (@FriendsOfOldTownWINC) or visit friendsofoldtown.org for a complete calendar. First Friday events return in June with a "Summer of Covers" theme featuring cover bands, including a special August event partnering with River House. A Community That Cares Whether discussing Mountain Trails' dedication to customer safety and satisfaction or Friends of Old Town's commitment to creating community experiences, this conversation reveals Winchester's character: a city where businesses and organizations prioritize people over profit, relationships over transactions, and community over convenience. From outdoor gear to outdoor festivals, the message remains consistent—everyone's welcome, expertise matters, and kindness forms the foundation of everything worthwhile.

Kindness is always _________________. [Ephesians 4:29-32] Don't use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them. [30] And do not bring sorrow to God's Holy Spirit by the way you live. Remember, he has identified you as his own, guaranteeing that you will be saved on the day of redemption. [31] Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. [32] Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you. God wants us to show kindness even when we are _________________. [Proverbs 15:1 CEV] A kind answer soothes angry feelings, but harsh words stir them up. We should not allow unattractive _________________ into our life. [Colossians 3:12-13] Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. [13] Make allowance for each other's faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. The _____________ _____________ wants to use you to show kindness. [Zechariah 7:9-10] “This is what the Lord of Heaven's Armies says: Judge fairly, and show mercy and kindness to one another. [10] Do not oppress widows, orphans, foreigners, and the poor. And do not scheme against each other. God _________________ us to be kind to others. [Romans 2:4] Don't you see how wonderfully kind, tolerant, and patient God is with you? Does this mean nothing to you? Can't you see that his kindness is intended to turn you from your sin? God wants _________________ acts of kindness, not _________________ acts of kindness. [Proverbs 19:17 CSB] Kindness to the poor is a loan to the LORD, and he will give a reward to the lender.

In Compassionate Kindness, we begin where all healing begins, in the quiet sanctuary of the heart. Gently arriving there, we soften and remember the steady pulse of love that lives within us. From this tender space, you are invited to bring to mind an “other” — a beloved friend, a colleague, a circle of people — and to surround them with compassionate love and luminous light. No fixing. No striving. Simply blessing. Then, in a sacred turning, that same compassion is offered inward. The love you so freely extend becomes the love that restores you. And finally, the boundaries dissolve. From me and you… to we… to One. Resting in the awareness of a single divine essence that knows only life, only love. Together, we bow inwardly to that holy presence and offer our blessing to all of life. Want more meditations and early access?

What does Kindness look like to you? How do you show it to others? It's more than just being "Nice!" Share. Make it a great day in the Love & Lordship of Christ (Galatians 5:22; Ephesians 4:32-33)!

This is a companion podcast for this morning's mantra. Kindness begins within.

1 Chronicles 19 tells the story of David's attempt to show kindness to the king of Ammon, which is tragically misunderstood and insulted. David's servants are humiliated, and what could have been peace turns into conflict. The Ammonites then hire mercenaries, and a battle follows, where Israel—under Joab and Abishai—stands firm and wins because the Lord is with them. This chapter reminds us that good intentions can be misread, but God remains faithful to those who walk in integrity. When trust is broken and conflict arises, courage, unity, and reliance on God still bring victory.

We are living in a moment where success looks polished on the outside… but inside, many leaders feel quietly exhausted. Disconnected. Successfully stuck. In this powerful and timely conversation, Lisa McGuire sits down with Graham Allcott, bestselling author of Kind: The Quiet Power of Kindness at Work and How to Be a Productivity Ninja, and founder of Think Productive. Together, we explore why kindness is no longer a "soft skill." It's a strategic advantage. If you've ever felt the tension between performance and humanity… If you've wondered whether productivity culture is feeding an unworthiness epidemic… If you sense leadership must evolve, but you're not sure how… This episode is your wake-up call. Kindness is not the opposite of high performance. It is the foundation of it. KEY TAKEAWAYS Kindness is a strategic advantage. It's not weakness. Self-kindness is the foundation of leadership. Scarcity thinking ("I'm not enough") drives hustle culture. Empathy is neuroplastic. It can be learned and strengthened. The biggest source of accidental unkindness is busyness. Truth delivered with grace is real leadership. Trust eliminates friction and fuels innovation. Leadership is about how things operate when you're not in the room. Self-care isn't selfish. It's generous.

Send Us A Message or Ask Us A Question? Savia Rocks opens season seven of the Us People Podcast with reflections on legacy, peeling away cultural conditioning and trauma, listening, and making choices that serve what matters. She interviews  Nuttha Goutier co-founder and CEO of Sabai Thai Spa, who shares growing up in a small village in Thailand with no running water or electricity where community support, joy in hard work, and living in the moment shaped her values. Nuttha describes immigrating to Canada over 25 years ago, overcoming setbacks, doubt, depression, and personal losses by acknowledging the past, letting go, and focusing on present choices, defining herself by resilience. She explains her purpose for building spas as creating a welcoming, belonging “home” experience, promoting self-care as a routine, supporting local communities, and planting a tree for every massage, with success defined by people's happiness and community impact. She outlines her daily routine (early wake-up, meditation, exercise, preparing four kids for school, and choosing gratitude), discusses wellness as preventive care for mind, body, and spirit, and argues that caring for yourself leads to kindness toward others.  Nuttha Goutier speaks about avoiding judgment through respect and acceptance, concerns about technology's impact on younger generations, and suggests more nature, meditation, and yoga in schools. 00:00 Welcome to Yes People Podcast01:24 Meet  Nuttha Goutier02:23 Growing Up in Thailand03:22 Finding Joy in Hard Work05:14 Life as a Journey05:44 Building Through Belief06:31 Self Care and Balance07:15 Looking in the Mirror08:23 Overcoming Life's Challenges10:53 The Power of Resilience11:26 Dealing with Trauma12:37 Letting Go of the Past13:53 Finding Your Purpose15:15 Creating Meaningful Impact17:12 Why Start a Spa Business17:37 Everyone Has a Gift18:14 Defining Success19:36 The Sabai Spa Experience21:12 A Day in the Life22:43 Morning Routine and Mindset23:18 Choosing Your Emotions24:32 Embracing Imperfection25:46 Understanding Wellness and Wellbeing26:45 Wellbeing and Self Care27:23 Preventative Health Philosophy28:16 Body as Vehicle30:05 Judgment and Respect32:05 Technology and Modern Generation34:55 Life Lessons and Quotes36:00 Carrying with Your Heart37:40 Three Ps of Success38:32 Best Advice from Dad39:58 Choices Equal Results41:31 Living Each Day Fully43:03 Forest Meditation Practice44:20 Meditation Journey and Growth45:36 Mental Health and Awareness46:48 Connect and Find Out More47:57 Final Words and GratitudeWebsite: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nutthagoutier/Website: https://www.instagram.com/nutthagoutier/Website: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61573378331497&ref=pro_upsell_xav_ig_profile_page_web#Website: https://sabaithai.com/Thank you so much Nuttha Goutier for reminding us that the beauty of kindly has always lied within us - Savia RocksSupport the show

Gardener Series How to Grow Kindness by A Moment of Hope

The Snack Leadership podcast was born in 2021, during the height of the pandemic, as a creative way to continue sharing my work when travel was no longer possible. What began as a marketing experiment quickly turned into something much more meaningful.   Over the years, podcasting has become one of my favorite ways to learn, grow, and connect. Through conversations with incredible leaders from around the world, I've had the opportunity to explore leadership in all its forms—navigating anxiety, leading with kindness, setting healthy boundaries, elevating our energy, and thinking strategically about the future.   In this special 5-year celebration episode, I'm sharing the top-listened-to podcast episode from each year of Snack Leadership. For each one, you'll hear a short snippet of insight or knowledge that resonated most with listeners over a series of 125 podcasts.   You'll also find links below to the full episodes so you can dive deeper into the conversations that mattered most.   Thank you for being part of this journey—whether you've been listening since the beginning or just found the podcast recently. Your commitment to growing, reflecting, and becoming the best leader you can be—for yourself and for those you lead—is what this podcast is all about.  

Dress yourself up in compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. This “clothing” will draw attention to God in a good way. -------- Thank you for listening! Your support of Joni and Friends helps make this show possible.     Joni and Friends envisions a world where every person with a disability finds hope, dignity, and their place in the body of Christ.

In this episode of The Workplace Podcast, William Corless speaks with Dr. Nicki Macklin about the strategic power of organisational kindness. Often dismissed as “soft,” kindness is frequently misunderstood in leadership. But research featured in Harvard Business Review - co-authored with Amy Edmondson and Thomas Lee - shows the opposite: kindness drives performance. In this conversation, they explore: Why kindness is not the same as niceness The real cost of workplace incivility How managers lose up to seven weeks a year dealing with poor culture How to measure kindness using metrics you already track This is a practical, research-backed discussion for leaders who want to balance performance with humanity — and understand the real business case for culture.

In this episode of This Is Kingdom, Grace, TJ, Talon, and Hollis talk about what it means to minister to the one and why it so often comes down to the smallest moments. Through stories about recess, being picked last, and the quiet hurts that stick with us longer than we expect, the hosts reflect on how much power one person has to change someone's day, and sometimes their whole life. They explore how easy it is to miss people when we are distracted, preoccupied, or stuck thinking about ourselves.This episode is a reminder that discipleship looks like awareness. With insight from Elder Johnson and practical takeaways like taking your AirPods out and lifting your eyes, the conversation invites listeners to slow down, notice the people right in front of them, and have the courage to say the kind thing, do the small thing, and show up on purpose. Because most of the time, it really only takes one.Chapters:00:00 INTRO06:05 "Reflecting on Kindness and Awareness"08:34 "Connecting Through Awareness"12:26 Overcoming Self-Centeredness

What if dying is not an ending, but a moment of radical clarity? In his new novel "Vigil," George Saunders conjures a strange and often comic world of bickering angels visiting a dying, deeply flawed man—debating and waiting to see whether he can face the truth about himself before it's too late.In this conversation, Steve Paulson talks with Saunders about the evolution of his ideas about death and the possibility of an afterlife. Dying, he says, may be “the ultimate experience of wonder,” and he believes ghost stories can open powerful imaginative spaces for novelists. Saunders reflects on his own Buddhist practice as he considers these life-and-death questions, and he tells us why he thinks fiction is uniquely suited to grappling with complex moral issues and why Tolstoy and Chekhov are his personal sources of inspiration.Saunders is the author of such celebrated books as “Tenth of December,” “Pastoralia,” and the Booker Prize-winning “Lincoln in the Bardo.”  His nonfiction book about the great Russian writers is “A Swim in a Pond in the Rain.”This interview was recorded at the Central Library in downtown Madison shortly before Saunders spoke at the Wisconsin Book Festival.— To the Best of Our Knowledge — On his short story collection “Tenth of December.  To the Best of Our Knowledge: Reflecting on “Lincoln in the Bardo.” Substack Story Club with George Saunders —00:00:00 Introduction and Reading from Vigil00:07:50 The Plane Crash and Death Obsession00:15:00 The Writing Process and Wonder00:24:30 Moral Accountability in Fiction00:32:20 Chekhov, Succession, and Accuracy00:40:00 Kindness, Criticism, and Final Thoughts Wonder Cabinet is hosted by Anne Strainchamps and Steve Paulson.
