832 · Adventures by Disney Japan Recap: Takayama, Shirakawa-go, Tokyo & Kintsugi - Part 2 Every step through Japan tells a story - and this week, I want to share ours. From centuries-old villages to hidden antique shops, we went looking for adventure... and found something even more meaningful.  Japan continues to unfold its magic in Part 2 of our Adventures by Disney to Japan recap, as we travel to the serene mountain town of Takayama, the timeless village of Shirakawa-go, and the vibrant heart of Tokyo. But beyond the destinations, it was the small, unexpected moments that truly defined the journey - the quiet ones, the funny ones, and the ones that took our breath away. From stumbling into a tucked-away backstreet antique shop, to mending broken pottery with gold, to the awkward bravery of stepping into your first onsen... this wasn't just a trip. It was an experience that changed us. It's about the connections we made, the lessons we learned, the memories we'll never forget - and the Adventures by Disney difference.

Interview by Kris PetersFusing modern rock with classic undertones, American rock outfit Limberlost bring together the best of two worlds to create a powerful and infectious sonic palette that transcends the underlying barriers that separate the old from the new.Known for their anthemic sound, raw energy, and emotionally charged storytelling, the band create music that resonates with fans of classic rock legends and contemporary rock revivalists alike. Their songs capture themes of strength, resilience, and empowerment, making them a force in the rock scene.Featuring two captivating, classically trained and accomplished opera singers in Brittany Lauren and Sammie Gorham, Limberlost have also just added guitarist Devon Unger on lead guitar and bass player Steve Unger (Metal Church), further expanding their musical influences while simultaneously strengthening their engine room.The band are poised to release their dynamic new album Beautiful Scars on June 13, with the whole band - including drummer Mike Burt and keyboardist Anthony Ciarochi, but excluding Gorham - joining HEAVY for an entertaining chat from their home base."It's been like getting ready to give birth," laughed Burt. "I mean, we've been cultivating this thing since last November, getting ready to be exactly where we are."We ask the band to tell us more about the musical nature of Beautiful Scars."Beautiful Scars was so much fun," Lauren enthused, "because it's a concept album. It takes on the Japanese art form of Kintsugi, which is an art form of repair, where, when a piece of pottery is shattered, they will repair it using gold. And so it becomes more beautiful because it was broken. So we took this and used it as an analogy to a person and how a person goes through their life, and they get all these scars, or they get these certain things. People make a lot of memes about it, but what if we made it mean that it made you more beautiful, and what if this is like coming to terms with who you are? So the whole concept of the album is that, and then what's cool is that Limberlost ended up kind of living that. We broke up, and then we got pieced together with some gold here, and we're making it work. It starts with Alien, and you'll hear lyrics that give you a sense of dysphoria about not feeling safe or feeling alien, and then it moves into just recognition of who you are."In the full interview, we dove deeper into the conceptual nature of Beautiful Scars, what they were going for musically and how it differs from Limberlost's previous work.The band acknowledged the challenge of balancing their diverse influences while evolving their sound to appeal to a broader audience and delved into the dynamics of having two female lead vocalists, reflecting on their classical training and how it has shaped their musical journey. The integration of new members Steve and Devon was discussed, with both expressing excitement about the album and upcoming live performances. The chat concluded with information on how fans can access Limberlost's music and exclusive content, as well as their plans for future performances, including aspirations to perform in Australia and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

On Pentecost, we are in the penultimate message in the series, Teach Em How To Say Goodbye: Jesus' Parting Words to a Community in Transition, which looks at the final discourse of Jesus with his disciples before the whirlwind of his death, resurrection, and ascension. Today, we consider how God might be inviting us to bear witness to beauty and brokenness, as we humbly listen to one another's stories.   [John 14:15-27]   Reflection As we sit together in our own metaphorical upper room, can we pray together that the Holy Spirit would astound us with unexpected beauty? How might God be inviting you to speak into or bear witness to another's beauty and brokenness? How might God be breathing beauty or possibility into the broken places in or around you?

In today's deeply polarizing society, we've become too comfortable with whitewashing—rewriting culture, truth, and identity to fit a more convenient narrative. We're constantly told by con artists, influencers, and marketers that certain things are "normal," when in reality, they're anything but. In this episode of the Wabi Sabi podcast, I felt it was necessary to draw a firm line—to call out where we've compromised and where we've allowed culture to be diluted. I use Matcha as one clear example. If I don't uphold the values of my own heritage—publicly and with conviction—I wouldn't be doing my job as a journalist. This episode is about reclaiming your roots. It's about learning from where you came from, understanding why that matters, and how honoring those truths can actually improve your life. These are free tools and reminders that anyone can use—anytime. And if you're feeling stuck, that's okay. You're not behind. You already hold the keys to unlock your next chapter. Let's get into it.

When we grow up, we think we have it all figured out, don't we? We believe we should go to college, get a good job, find our perfect partner, be fit, have a good circle of friends, maybe have kids, etc. All before the age of 35. We have these insane expectations for ourselves and what our lives will be.And then, we learn. Maybe the job or career path we originally selected isn't right for us. Maybe we find ourselves without a partner or kids. Maybe life faced us with health challenges. Whatever it is, life tests our ability to pivot and reinvent ourselves into something new. It's like the Japanese art of Kintsugi. With Kintsugi, Japanese artists take broken pieces of pottery and carefully pour gold into the cracks to put it all back together. So, the bowls that were once broken are now even more beautiful than before. Look it up. Kintsugi is so beautiful even though it is technically broken. It has been made new.During my conversation with my guest today, Nicole Meline, I was reminded about the power of reinvention.

Una crisi, ti cambia, ma come? Un abbandono, una malattia, una rinuncia, un tradimento, una perdita, il tempo che passa e non ti senti felice, e se pensi al tempo che passa, sei infelice ancora di più. Un dolore ti cambia, ma come? Una dipendenza, un figlio che si perde, un amore che si spegne, una fede che si indebolisce, un mondo che ti fa sentire sbagliato. Il “come” è la chiave. Perché una ferita può essere sanata, una frattura riparata. Quelli che erano punti fragili, diventano strumenti di vita nuova. Come nel Kintsugi, l'arte giapponese del restauro che, attraverso l'oro, rende ogni frattura un'opera d'arte. E tutto diventa più forte, e più nuovo, e più bello. “Fragile” è una parola che trae in inganno, porta in sé l'idea della rottura che non si ripara. Cambiamo parola.

In the spirit of kintsugi — the Japanese art of repairing what is broken with gold — we'll reflect on how hope, healing, and compassion still shine through our fractures.

Let's be real—life falls apart sometimes. But here's the good news: in Japan, we don't toss the broken stuff—we gold it. This week on Wabi Sabi, I'm diving into the art of kintsugi and how those so-called “cracks” in your life can actually lead you to your ikigai—your purpose, your why, your get-out-of-bed-and-make-matcha energy. We'll talk breakups, burnout, identity shifts, and how feeling “off” can actually be the beginning of something beautiful. It's not about having it all together—it's about loving your flaws, laughing at the mess, and finding your path anyway. This is your permission slip to be a little broken, a little fabulous, and a lot more you.

"Beholding is a countercultural act—it requires us to stop, to receive, and to fully see.” — Makoto Fujimura"Slow art is an invitation to linger, to notice, and to let the world unfold before us." — Makoto FujimuraYou are a beautiful masterpiece. But the practice of living artfully comes slowly, often through brokenness, weakness, or failure. Contemporary artist Makoto Fujimura integrates traditional Japanese styles with abstract expressionism and Christian theology, to explore the beauty that can emerge from the ashes pain and suffering. Both his art and his writing call us to behold the gift of creation, participate in its redemption, accentuating the cracks and fractures in our lives, so that grace might abound.Makoto Fujimura—renowned artist, writer, and theologian—joins Dr. Pam King to explore the deep connections between art, faith, and flourishing. Fujimura shares how his Japanese heritage and study of traditional Nihonga painting have shaped his understanding of creativity as a sacred act. Through themes of brokenness, beauty, and slow art, he challenges us to rethink success, embrace imperfection, and create from a place of love and abundance. Whether you're an artist, a person of faith, or someone seeking meaning in a hurried world, this conversation will invite you to slow down, behold, and embrace the mystery and beauty of life.Mako Fujimura integrates his artmaking, theology, and culture care advocacy into a beautiful expression of thriving and spiritual health. Through his breathtaking expressionist style, distinctively Japanese methods, and his rooted Christian convictions, he's bringing beauty into being, and inviting us to do the same.In this conversation with Mako Fujimura, we discuss:What art is, what creativity means, and the human capacity for making beautyHow we can live artfully through imperfection, brokenness, trauma, and sufferingHow the practice of a gift economy can lead to mutual thrivingThe slow art of pausing, stopping, and beholding that contributes to our mental and spiritual healthAnd the connection between knowledge and love in a life of creativity and artmaking.Helpful Links and ResourcesFollow Makoto Fujimura on X @iamfujimuraView Mako's art at makotofujimura.comMakoto Fujimura's WritingsMakoto Fujimura's BooksNihonga Art and its TraditionsRefractions: A Journey of Art, Faith, & CultureCulture Care: Reconnecting with Beauty for Our Common LifeSilence and Beauty: Hidden Faith Born of SufferingArt and Faith: A Theology of MakingEpisode Highlights"Art is fundamentally what human beings create—it is our capacity to make, and in making, we come to know.""Beholding is a countercultural act—it requires us to stop, to receive, and to fully see.”"We worship a wounded, glorified human being—our brokenness is not something to escape but something to offer.""Creativity is not about self-expression alone—it is about giving yourself away in love.""Slow art is an invitation to linger, to notice, and to let the world unfold before us."Show NotesMakoto Fujimura discusses the intersection of art, faith, and flourishingThe importance of beholding in a fast-paced worldHow brokenness and imperfection reveal deeper beautyNihonga painting and the wisdom of traditional Japanese artCreativity as an act of love and gift-givingThe Art of BeholdingWhy slowing down is essential for creativity and spiritual growthThe practice of beholding as a way of seeing the world more deeplyHow art invites us to be present and pay attentionThe connection between contemplation, creativity, and flourishing"Beholding is a countercultural act—it requires us to stop, to receive, and to fully see."Creativity, Faith, and Human FlourishingHow art and faith are intertwined in human thrivingThe spiritual discipline of making and creatingWhy true knowledge is connected to love and experience"Art is fundamentally what human beings create—it is our capacity to make, and in making, we come to know."How community fosters creativity and growthBrokenness, Beauty, and the Theology of MakingThe Japanese tradition of Kintsugi and embracing imperfectionHow Jesus' wounds and resurrection shape our view of brokennessThe gift economy vs. the transactional economy in art"We worship a wounded, glorified human being—our brokenness is not something to escape but something to offer."Learning to see beauty in what is discarded or overlookedThe Practice of Slow ArtWhy slowing down is essential for deep engagement with artHow layers in Nihonga painting reveal new depths over time"Slow art is an invitation to linger, to notice, and to let the world unfold before us."How slowing down fosters healing and deeper connectionThe role of patience and attentiveness in both art and lifeLiving a Creative and Generous LifeHow to cultivate creativity in daily life, even outside traditional artsThe role of community in sustaining creative workWhy generosity and self-giving are essential to true creativity"Creativity is not about self-expression alone—it is about giving yourself away in love."Practical steps for integrating creativity into everyday livingPam King's Key TakeawaysWhether you think of yourself as artist, we're all creative. Mako's message is intentionally not just for artists, but is an invitation for all of us to live artfully—no matter what we do for a living.Because creativity comes in so many different ways, from leadership, to scientific research, to parenting, to cooking, we all have the daily creative capacity to add beauty to the world.And to that end, remember your first love, the playfulness and creativity of giving beauty to the worldA gift economy of beauty offers a radical resistance to consumerism, competition, and comparison.Art and the making of beauty is a part of thriving. And the invitation to live artfully starts with a daily practice of slowing down: pause, stop, and behold. Smell the roses. Consider the lilies.And finally, there's a path to beauty through brokenness. Grace comes to us through failure. And strength is made perfect in weakness.And finally, though the wind may be blowing through our lives, may we all learn to behold the moonlight leaking between the roof planks.About Makoto FujimuraContemporary artist Makoto Fujimura is a painter, an author, a speaker, and an imaginative maker with a gift for theological integration.Mako's message is intentionally not just for artists, because creativity comes in so many different ways, from leadership, to scientific research, to parenting, to cooking, we all have the daily creative capacity to add beauty to the world. Working out of his Princeton, New Jersey studio, his work has been described by David Brooks as “a small rebellion against the quickening of time.” Art critic Robert Kushner placed Mako's art at the forefront of a contemporary movement about “hope, healing, redemption, and refuge, while maintaining visual sophistication and intellectual integrity.”A blend of fine art and abstract expressionism, Mako describes his work as “slow art,” being influenced directly by the distinctively Japanese Nihonga style, which is patient and methodical, using slow drying pigments from ground minerals.Mako's art has been featured in galleries and museums around the world, as well as notable collections in The Museum of Contemporary Art in Tokyo, The Huntington Library in California, and the Tikotin Museum in Israel.From 2012 to 2017, he served as vision director of the Brehm Center here at Fuller Theological Seminary.Mako is the author of several books, including Refractions: A Journey of Art, Faith, & Culture, Culture Care: Reconnecting with Beauty for Our Common Life, and Silence and Beauty: Hidden Faith Born of Suffering. His most recent is entitled Art and Faith: A Theology of Making. And his next book will be available soon—titled, Art Is: A Journey into the Light. And with his wife Haejin, he's producing a new work on Beauty and Justice.Follow him on X @iamfujimura, and view his beautiful work at makotofujimura.com.

Hey friend, I know I've been a bit MIA from the pod these past few weeks, and I truly appreciate your patience. Life has its seasons, and sometimes we walk through chapters that aren't ready to be shared—yet. What I can say is this: we're all on our own unique path, and you never really know what someone else is going through. That's why it's more important than ever to lead with compassion. Everyone—everyone—is doing their best with what they have. When we start from that belief, we shift the way we see the world. We soften. We open. We allow more grace in. Today we will also be doing just a round up of recent events and little notes that you've all sent my way... Today's episode is a gentle reminder to pause. To take care of yourself. To give back to your community, even in small, quiet ways. To rest. To breathe. To do the little things that bring you peace. As one of my favorite monks once told me in Japan: "Bochi bochi ganbatte." Step by step, do your best. We'll also explore some perspectives from the Kintsugi documentary—how we mend, how we shift, and how we prepare for change in this ever-evolving world. And always remember: Wabi Sabi is about embracing the beauty in imperfection. Life isn't meant to be polished. It's meant to be real. So don't stress too much. You're doing better than you think. Let's begin.

It's time for church leaders and believers to stop offering prettily packaged responses from a safe distance. It's time for us to sit in the ashes with the hurting, our Sunday clothes covered in dirt and grime, our faces lined with tears. Trauma brings people to the ash heap, so that is where the church needs to go.The church should serve as a refuge for people in pain. And yet, we often end up unintentionally causing more hurt to trauma survivors. Theological platitudes and positive thinking aren't simply dismissive to those who suffer, but they inevitably retraumatize the wounded. Does the Bible have anything practical to offer for church leaders as they engage the pain in their congregations?Biblical scholar Michelle Keener shows us that the book of Job provides embodied and practical answers for the church today. In this incredible tool for ministry leaders and trauma survivors alike, Keener offers:deep wisdom at the intersection of trauma theory and the book of Job for Christian communitiesreflection questions for ministry practitioners and those walking alongside those who have experienced traumaengagement with the idea of a shattered worldview and how to overcome the effects of that experience.Comfort in the Ashes helps leaders navigate their own trauma and gives practical guidance for supporting others whose worlds are falling apart. God meets us in our ashes and our pain. It's time for the church to do the same.1. You define trauma as a response to an event and not the event itself. Why is it important that events are not defined as trauma?2. In your book, you reference Judith's Herman's Three Stages of Recovery. What is it and why did you use Herman's concept?3. On page 49-51 you mention how it is common for people to present with Denial, Avoidance, and Shock as a standardresponse. However, this can lead friends and family to confuse their presentation with maturity or faithfulness, can you share more about that?4. In several places you insightfully point to the inner conflict of Job's friends. How does trauma challenge our ordinaryassumptions of how the world works? Can you also say moreabout The Retribution Principle?5. Toward the end of the book you mention how God comes to Job in his ashes. Why is this important for those who are desperate for hope?6. You mention the art of Kintsugi, how can this concept help us understand the trauma healing process?

Today, we're diving deep into the timeless philosophy of Kakugo—resolution, determination, and the clarity of purpose in our lives. Kakugo is about setting intentions and committing fully to them, much like the monks high in the mountains who dedicate themselves to a life of service, simplicity, and profound mindfulness. In today's episode, we'll explore how we can learn from those who have walked the path before us—from the wisdom of these monks to the lessons hidden in the unfiltered messages of children. We'll also take a closer look at the Kintsugi documentary, which captures the essence of Japanese spirit, and how it all ties back to the powerful practice of Kintsugi. If you've seen Kintsugi, the limited series I created that aired on NHK World, you'll recognize how the art of golden repair teaches us that our brokenness, our flaws, and our scars aren't just things to hide, but something to embrace. They become the gold that strengthens us, propels us forward, and makes us whole again. In a world where so many of us are battling feelings of anxiety and hopelessness, these ancient practices offer us the tools we need to mend, to grow, and to find peace. How can we be better individuals, and better people, by applying these lessons from the past to our everyday lives in the present? Let's talk about how we can incorporate these teachings into our daily practice and open our hearts to the beautiful brokenness of being human. Thank you for joining me.

This is a “how to” on surviving a divorce for your best benefit. For Stacie Shifflett, the implosion of her 28-year marriage felt like shattering into a million pieces. She likened herself to Humpty Dumpty, wondering how she would ever put herself back together. Stacie's story offers a road map for everyone going through the dissolution of a marriage. Stacie's journey began with the shock and grief of her marriage ending. Despite initiating the divorce, she never imagined it would happen. The loss of a long-term commitment and the future she had envisioned left her feeling anchorless and broken. She needed to find a way to heal. Stacie uses the metaphor of Kintsugi to describe her healing process.In Kintsugi, broken pottery is repaired with gold, making it more beautiful and stronger than before. Stacey saw her life in the same way – as an opportunity to rebuild with intention and grace. Stacie's path to healing integrated the concept of the present moment, learning about human nature, exploring her emotions, and expanding her perspective. She also focused on forgiveness and compassion. She learned to give grace to others and herself, recognizing that everyone is doing the best they can at any given moment. This shift in perspective allowed her to release her anger and resentment, paving the way for true healing. Stacie's evolution to a life of mindfulness and peace offers hope and inspiration to anyone facing similar challenges. By embracing the art of Kintsugi and rebuilding with intention, we can all create a more beautiful and resilient life.   What they're saying:   “This is a beautiful book about life, its imperfections, its challenges, and its joys.
