Episode 81 - Murdock and Marvel: 2011 Part 2 It was a quiet year in the comics world, but there were a lot of developments going on behind the scenes, and up on the screen.  Oh, and we did get ONE new character worth talking about…  This is part 2 of the podcast. that will feature the year in Daredevil, the Spotlight story and the Takeaway for 2011.   The Year in Daredevil  Appearances: Daredevil v2 #512, Daredevil v3 #1-5, Daredevil Reborn #1-4, Shadowland #5, Ultimate Avengers #15-18, Ultimate Spider-Man #150, Bullseye: Perfect Game #2, What if? 200 #1, Marvel Adventures Spider-Man #15, Avengers #17, Vengeance #2, Captain America Corps #4-5, New Avengers #16, FF #11, Season One Guide #1 and the Spider-Man Chapter One graphic novel.  Writer: Andy Diggle (Reborn #1-4), Mark Waid (#1-5)  Pencils: David Gianfelice (Reborn #1-4), Paolo Rivera and Marcos Martin (#1), Paolo Rivera (#2-3), Marco Martin (#4-5)  Inks: David Gianfelice (Reborn #1-4), Marcos Martin and Joe Rivera (#1), Joe Rivera (#2-3), Marcos Martin (#4-5)  2011 begins with the final few issues of the Shadowland crossover event we talked about a couple weeks ago. In it, Murdock is the leader of the Hand and tries to use them for good in NYC but he's corrupted by Snakeroot and “the Beast” and threatens to take down all of humanity before Iron Fist, Luke Cage and friends can stop him. Elektra smuggles Murdock's lifeless body from the scene but who know he survives because Ben Urich gets a recording from Murdock saying he's sorry for what happened and needs to get away to find the right path again.  In March, we learn what happened to Murdock in a 4-part limited series entitles Daredevil Reborn. In it, we learn he's been wandering the country by foot and by bus and has found his way to New Mexico and proves to be the only story we get outside New York. We'll cover it as this week's spotlight story.  In September, we get issue #1 of Daredevil volume 3, a double sized issue from a new creative team. In this book we actually get 3 stories – “Here Comes…Daredevil” a 1-page recap of Daredevil history, “Man without Fear” in which Daredevil saves a mob bosses daughter from being abducted by the Spot during her wedding day but then Matt gets removed as lawyer from a case he's working on because he's Daredevil. Finally, in “Sometimes, in my dreams… I can See” Matt goes to his father's grave site with Foggy.  As volume 2 continues, Daredevil has a talk with Captain America, Steve Rogers, about what he did in New York during Shadowland and convinces him it won't happen again. Next Daredevil investigates why no one else was willing to work on the Jobrani case he was removed from. Turns out other lawyers who considered it were being threatened and supposedly Jobrani is hearing voices. After a run-in with the Klaw – who was the one causing Jobrani to hear voices, Murdock decides the best way he can help people is coaching them to represent themselves in court. After working with Jobrani, he wins his court case and Matt decides this is the new way forward for Nelson & Murdock.  Meeting with new potential clients under their new business model, Murdock meats with Austin Cao, a blind man who was working as a linguist for Midas Investments before he was abruptly fired. While that initially doesn't look like much of a case, some men try to murder Austin and Matt while they are talking which causes Matt to take the case as Daredevil. Matt dispatches the mercenaries and he hides Austin at his apartment.   There he learns Austin overheard parts of a plot by Midas to broker a deal between Hydra, A.I.M., Black Spector, Zodiac and possibly other crime organizations. Daredevil confronts Austin's old boss Mr. Randall who tells him he was only trying to protect Austin by firing him. More Midas mercenaries attack Randall who realizes what he's done, and Daredevil must fight them off including Bruiser, an up-and-coming mercenary with powers trying to make a name for himself.   This story ends in early 2012 with a face-off between Daredevil and the 5 megacrime organizations using the threat of mutually assured destruction. He tells them they're going to let him and his friends go, because in order for one of them to take the Omega drive, they'll have to kill the other four agents and inevitably start a gang war. The agents lower their weapons and Daredevil walks out with Randall and Austin. He tells the terrorists that if their bosses want the Omega drive, they know where to find him.  This Week's Spotlight: Daredevil Reborn #1 from March 2011 “Reborn, Chapter One” through Daredevil Reborn #4 July 2011 “Reborn, Chapter Four”  Recap Why We Picked This Story Daredevil Rapid Fire Questions The Takeaway It's time for a reset at Marvel!

In this episode of SB Talks, CEO Vincent O'Neill and CIO Nick Ryder, unpack the Reserve Bank's decision to hold rates at 3.6%, following three cuts earlier this year. They explore what's behind the RBA's cautious stance, rising services inflation, stronger consumer spending, and signs of renewed momentum in the housing market. The conversation shifts to the US government shutdown, where a deepening political standoff could stretch on for weeks, highlighting the economic toll drawing on past shutdowns, and the estimated $400 million daily hit to the US economy. They discuss how this, along with tariffs and other policy moves, adds complexity to the global outlook. As we enter the final quarter of 2025, Vincent and Nick take stock of market sentiment, strong corporate earnings, and the ongoing AI investment wave.   Music provided by: Autumn Trumpet Background Corporate by LesFM | https://lesfm.net/ Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/ Creative Commons CC BY 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Nous vivons tous et toutes des moments de transitions au cours de nos vies. Nous changeons d'emploi; nous connaissons des ruptures; nous déménageons dans une autre région. Comment réagissons-nous durant ces moments? Quelles sont nos sources de réconforts dans ces événements voulus ou non?   Dans ce premier épisode de la quatrième saison, Joan et Stéphane nous partagent des moments personnels pour illustrer les réalités et les défis des transitions professionelles et intimes.    Site internet: https://questiondecroire.podbean.com/ ApplePodcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/question-de-croire/id1646685250  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Xurt2du9A576owf0mIFSj  Réfome: https://www.reforme.net/podcast/   Contactez-nous: questiondecroire@gmail.com   Notre commanditaire: L'Église Unie du Canada  Moncredo.org   * Musique de Lesfm, pixabay.com.

Utilisée avec permission.   Bonjour, bienvenue à Question de croire, un podcast qui aborde la foi et la spiritualité une question à la fois. Cette semaine, comment aborder les transitions professionnelles ? Bonjour Stéphane. Bonjour Joan. [Joan] On est de retour après un été un peu chargé de mon côté et du tien. [Stéphane] Oui, moi aussi. J'avais dit que j'étais pour faire des capsules, peut-être cet été. Je n'ai pas pu. Je m'en excuse à toutes les personnes qui sont à l'écoute. Ça a été très chargé.   Un déménagement pour Joan   [Joan] Et en parlant d'ailleurs de transition, là on va transitionner vers les soixante-dix ou septante quelque chose épisode. Bravo à nous ! [Stéphane] Oui, notre quatrième saison. [Joan] Et puis, moi j'ai une grosse transition cet été puisque ça y est, on a déménagé en famille en Suisse, après plusieurs années, voilà, d'exploration. Pour démarrer un petit peu la thématique de cet épisode, il y a un collègue il n'y a pas longtemps qui m'a écrit un WhatsApp comme ça, mais comme on dit en anglais, out of nowhere, c'est-à-dire vraiment qui est sorti de nulle part et il m'a écrit, peut-être qu'il se reconnaîtra, tu as trop de missions, je m'y perds dans ton cahier des charges. Et c'est vrai qu'entre cette période où j'étais entre l'Alsace et Zurich et puis l'Alsace et Lausanne, et maintenant j'ai un 80% pour les solidarités, notamment la migration et soutien aux paroisses autour d'Yverdon. Et j'ai aussi un 20% pour toute l'Église cantonale sur les questions d'inclusivité et de conjugalité plurielle. Alors moi, je le comprends. Il n'y a pas que lui qui est perdu. Je crois que mes parents sont perdus. Moi-même, des fois, je suis un peu perdue, mais vraiment très, très heureuse. Et puis aussi heureuse de te retrouver, Stéphane, et de retrouver les auditeuristes avec cet épisode de la rentrée.   Les changements au travail   [Stéphane] C'est vrai que ça peut être déstabilisant, mais en même temps, les transitions professionnelles, les changements, les nouveaux boulots, c'est une réalité de toutes les personnes. Ce n'est pas juste les pasteurs. Toutes les personnes à notre écoute, je suis pas mal convaincue, elles ont connu ou elles connaîtront beaucoup de changements de carrière, de boulot, de couple. Ça fait partie des choses normales de la vie, mais on dirait que c'est un petit peu plus difficile pour les pasteurs. On dirait que les gens aiment bien nous mettre comme dans une case. Toi, tu es pasteur à tel endroit, puis toi, tu es pasteur à un autre endroit, et on peut être là pendant 10, 15 ans, et les gens sont surpris qu'il y ait un changement. Tandis que pour monsieur et madame, tout le monde qui nous écoute, oui, il y en a qui demeurent dans la même boîte pendant 10-15 ans, mais il y en a plusieurs qui changent et on ne se casse pas la tête avec ça.   Les transitions professionnelles   [Joan] Ça me touche ce que tu dis parce qu'on a quitté vraiment une communauté qui était devenue une famille en Alsace, la paroisse Sous les Platanes, Grafenstaden, et on a eu droit à beaucoup de louanges, de prières, d'accompagnement pour cette transition. Et parmi les prières, il y avait aussi des prières qui étaient un petit peu des prières comme dans les psaumes, des prières un peu de lamentation. Au moment de nous envoyer, certains ont eu besoin de laisser monter un cri vers le Seigneur et de dire « Mais pourquoi Seigneur? Pourquoi tu nous les enlèves? On ne comprend pas, pourquoi est-ce que ça s'arrête? » C'est compliqué de comprendre les plans de Dieu. Et puis, en même temps, moi, je me disais, c'est beau de lancer ce cri vers Dieu. Et je trouve que cette confiance, elle est édifiante. Mais d'un autre côté, nous, on est des pasteurs. On est restés neuf années dans cette place. Je comprends tout à fait le cri vers le ciel. Et d'un autre côté, je me dis, notre vocation à nous, c'est d'être un peu en itinérance, d'être un peu en mouvement, en déplacement. Puis, comme tu dis, il y a beaucoup de métiers, en fait, où il y a du turnover. Je me rappelle l'une des réunions scolaires pour l'une de mes filles où le chef d'établissement a dit, « Écoutez, on va se mettre tout de suite d'accord. Là, on va parler des options, des options scolaires pour cette année. Mais maintenant, en fait, tout peut servir. » En fait, on n'est plus dans une époque où tu rentres dans une boîte et puis on te fait la fête d'au revoir pour la retraite 43 ans après ou quoi. On est dans une époque où vos enfants, en fait, ils vont changer peut-être dix fois de poste. Et donc, si là, ils font une option scolaire qui ne vous semble pas nécessaire ou importante, vous n'en savez rien, parce qu'ils vont avoir un itinéraire professionnel très varié, très changeant. Et moi, ça m'a fait du bien, tu vois, qu'il y ait ce grand temps de culte et de prière à l'Église. Et j'aimerais bien savoir, moi, les auditeurs, les auditrices, comment est-ce qu'ils et elles vivent leur temps de transition.   Les transitions volontaires et involontaires   [Stéphane] Et il y a les transitions voulues, et il y a des moments où ce qu'on est, pour prendre une expression que j'aime bien, expulsé de notre zone de confort. Quand je pense à des transitions voulues, je suis retourné aux études à 30 ans pour faire ma théologie. J'avais un emploi, bon, ce n'était pas une grande carrière, ce n'était pas spectaculaire, mais j'avais un boulot. L'argent rentrait, tout allait bien. Et j'ai laissé ça derrière moi pour devenir pasteur parce que c'est ce que je ressentais comme appel. C'est sûr que lorsque j'ai partagé ça avec des gens avec qui j'avais mon travail avant de rentrer aux études, ils étaient surpris. « Qu'est-ce que c'est ça? C'est complètement différent de ce que tu fais. » « Oui, mais c'est une autre facette de moi-même. On a plusieurs côtés dans notre personne, Mais il y a aussi les moments où on perd notre emploi parce qu'on se fait congédier, parce que la boîte ferme, parce qu'on est obligé de fuir son pays. Il y a ces transitions-là qui amènent plus de douleurs, avoir l'impression de perdre quelque chose. Oui, on peut toujours dire, ah, mais il y a des nouvelles possibilités qui s'ouvrent devant soi, il y a de nouvelles façons de voir les choses, mais il y a ce côté-là, un peu de douleur, un côté d'être peut-être un peu victime, dans le sens que ce n'est pas soi qui prend pleinement la décision. Il y a ces deux côtés-là au niveau des transitions et comment on navigue ça et comment on réagit aux transitions des autres. Joue un peu là-dedans, il faut avoir un peu de tact.   Les transitions dans nos vies personnelles   [Joan] Et puis, c'est important de se donner du temps pour les transitions. Et parfois, comme tu dis, on n'a pas le temps. En fait, parfois, on subit des choses de plein fouet pour lesquelles on n'est pas prête, je pense. Et puis, là, je mets un traumavertissement. Je pense à l'une de mes meilleures amies dont le mari était certes très malade. Ça, c'est vrai, il était très malade. La possibilité, l'éventualité d'une fin de vie était régulièrement évoquée par les médecins, mais à aucun moment on ne lui a dit qu'il pouvait mourir d'une crise cardiaque à cause des différents médicaments qu'il prenait. C'est une éventualité à laquelle elle n'était pas prête, elle n'était pas préparée plus précisément. Et cette crise cardiaque lui est tombée dessus. Et elle n'a pas eu le temps de s'y préparer du tout, contrairement à tout ce qu'on lui avait dit sur les soins palliatifs qui lui auraient donné du temps finalement. Et en l'occurrence, je me rends compte combien, en proportion gardée, cet été, la direction d'Église a décidé de me donner deux mois de remplacement en paroisse, de me laisser prendre des congés un peu longs, de me laisser prendre du temps pour le déménagement. Tout ça, ça a été bienfaisant et ça m'a aidée aussi à faire les différentes transitions entre les postes, entre les régions, entre les cures ou les presbytères. Et c'est un privilège d'avoir du temps, c'est un privilège. Et je crois que je vais me souvenir toute ma vie de ce temps qui m'a été donné pour aller mieux, pour me reposer. Vraiment, ce mot, la reposer, il est important, je trouve. J'espère que moi-même, le jour où j'aurai l'occasion de donner du temps à quelqu'un, je me rappellerai qu'on m'en a donné aussi.   L'importance des temps d'arrêt   [Stéphane] Je t'écoute et ça me fait penser à cette traversée du désert des Hébreux. Une des façons qu'on nous a expliqué ça, c'est que ça ne prend pas 40 ans de marcher d'Égypte à la terre promise, mais il a fallu 40 ans pour que les gens acceptent de laisser aller une identité pour laisser place à une autre identité. Et ce qui est quelque chose de positif là-dedans, aussi dans cette histoire, c'est que malgré toutes les pérégrinations, les erreurs, les détours, Dieu était toujours là. Et lorsqu'on arrive à des endroits dans nos vies où on a l'impression qu'on traverse un désert. Moi, j'ai dû abandonner un poste pastoral malgré moi. Tout ce temps-là, entre deux postes pastorales, qui a duré environ presque 18 mois, j'ai souvent appelé ça ma traversée du désert. Parce que, du jour au lendemain, je n'avais plus rien. J'avais encore de l'argent, ce n'était pas ça le problème, mais j'avais plus mon identité de pasteur, je ne savais pas quoi faire, je tournais en rond dans la maison. J'ai dû énerver mon épouse huit fois par jour. Mais parfois on a besoin de ce temps-là, de désert, de jachère, peu importe, avant de se relancer. Juste se poser, juste refaire son énergie, juste changer sa façon de voir les choses et réfléchir. Qu'est-ce que je veux faire? C'est quoi la prochaine étape? Moi, je voulais continuer à être pasteur, mais peut-être que j'aurais pu découvrir que c'était autre chose. D'être confronté presque malgré soi-même, parce que c'est facile de dire on enchaîne les boulots, on enchaîne les contrats, ça va bien, mais d'avoir ce moment-là où on est obligé de se poser la question, Est-ce que c'est vraiment ça que je veux faire? C'est important aussi d'avoir ce temps d'arrêt C'est frustrant lorsqu'on est dedans, c'est vraiment désagréable dans mon cas, mais c'était très bénéfique pour moi en tant que personne.   Explorer ses temps de transitions   [Joan] Mais là, tu parles de temps d'arrêt. Et parfois, c'est important quand on fait une pause, quelque part, que quelqu'un nous écoute. Et je dois dire que vraiment, la Saint-Esprit m'a donné un superviseur digne de confiance. Voilà, je ne vais pas rajouter non plus des superlatifs et dire qu'il est super génial et tout. Quelqu'un que je connais dans le cadre de la supervision et qui, dans ce cadre-là, a su trouver la bonne posture qui me sécurise, qui me permet de me sentir accompagnée, reconnue, et puis aussi parfois challengée, interrogée, déplacée, parce que moi j'ai besoin de ça aussi. Et c'est incroyable combien quelqu'un qui t'écoute et qui a la bonne place, qui te déplacent aussi un peu dans un questionnement bienveillant, ça aide pour un temps de transition, ça aide, mais formidablement. Et on parle de quoi? On parle de deux, trois heures chaque deux mois, mais ça fait tout en fait. Et la supervision, pour celles et ceux qui peut-être ne connaissent pas le concept, ce n'est pas tout à fait comme un ou une psychologue, c'est-à-dire que la supervision peut avoir une dimension thérapeutique bien sûr, mais le ou la superviseure n'est pas là pour t'aider à réfléchir à tes traumas passés avec tes parents, ta famille, tes chéris. Mais le ou la superviseure est là pour t'aider à retrouver le fil, le fil spirituel, le fil de ta relation au Christ dans ta vie. Et puis nous les ministres, elle est là pour nous aider aussi à relier en nous les choses qui font sens, à nous relier de nouveau à notre vocation, à notre appel au Christ, aux Écritures, voilà, le ou la superviseuse sont là pour ça. C'est un exercice qui a l'air tout simple, mais ce tricotage-là, il demande quelque chose de très profond dans ces personnes, vraiment un ancrage profond dans le Christ.   Avoir une diversité de gens pour nous accompagner   [Stéphane] Et peut-être pour les personnes qui n'ont pas la chance d'avoir quelqu'un de cette nature dans leur vie, il y a les proches aussi, il y a les amis, il y a la famille biologique et la famille choisie. Et ce que j'ai remarqué souvent, c'est les personnes qui ont des cercles homogènes dans leurs amis, dans leurs collègues. C'est bien d'avoir des atomes crochus dans ce sens-là, mais lorsqu'on est obligé de quitter une Église, où comme toi, ce n'est pas juste une paroisse, tu changes de pays, tu changes de région, tout d'un coup, ils n'ont plus de proches, qui n'ont plus de réseau et je pense que ça rend ces transitions professionnelles peut-être plus difficiles. Souvent on me dit « bon, as-tu un bon cercle de support Stéphane en tant que pasteur? » Je dis oui et ce que je dis c'est que j'ai la chance d'avoir plein d'amis qui ne vont pas à l'église. Les gens sont surpris. Je dis oui, mais je peux parler de mon boulot comme tout le monde parle de son boulot à leurs proches et on se rejoint sur d'autres choses. Je n'ai pas pris des personnes comme ça d'une manière aléatoire sur la rue. On se rejoint sur d'autres choses. Mais c'est peut-être important, justement, sachant que nous vivons tous et toutes des transitions professionnelles. De ne pas mettre tous ses œufs dans le même panier parce que ça peut être une mauvaise surprise à un certain moment. Si tous nos amis sont reliés à un emploi, on perd l'emploi, on peut perdre nos amis. Il y a quelque chose de sain d'avoir cette diversité-là autour de nous.   Ne pas fuir ses émotions durant les transitions   [Joan] Et puis tu parles d'église avec le petit e, de paroisse, mais d'une façon générale, mon expérience, c'est que l'Église n'est pas très douée pour les situations sur le seuil. Alors le deuil, oui. On sait assez bien faire l'absence, les étapes du deuil, accompagner les gens. Mais je l'ai remarqué avec notre départ d'Alsace, la direction d'Église en Alsace était toute paralysée, figée, stupéfaite. Je les comprends d'un côté, deux pasteurs qui partent, ce n'est pas rien un couple de pasteurs. Et puis, en même temps, je me dis que cette notion d'être comme figé ou presque endormi ou assoupi, ça me rappelle cette fameuse nuit, cette fameuse nuit au Mont des Oliviers, où Jésus demande une seule chose à ses disciples, à ses copains, à ses plus proches, c'est de veiller de ne pas s'endormir. Mais ils s'endorment parce que peut-être la tension est trop forte, parce qu'il y a trop d'émotions. Et c'est ça qui est compliqué dans les périodes de transition, c'est que moi je suis là avec mes émotions, puis celles et ceux dont je me sépare ou qui font qu'on se sépare, ils sont aussi tout pleins d'émotions. Et puis on aurait envie de croire que c'est la faute des uns ou des autres. Mais non, la situation est super inconfortable et elle ne peut que révéler ce trop plein d'émotions. Et d'ailleurs, je parlais avec une personne qui m'est proche et chère et qui est dans un processus de séparation avec une autre personne qui m'est aussi proche. Cette personne me disait, voilà, les cartons sont en train d'être faits, on est en train de regarder ensemble dans les armoires qu'est-ce qui appartient à qui, et puis tous les soirs on pleure. Mais on finit de pleurer ensemble et puis on va chacun se coucher dans son lit et avant de se coucher on se dit bonne nuit, c'est quand même la bonne décision. Et je suis très touchée par ça parce que parfois la situation est... Terriblement prenante, exigeante, mais ça reste la bonne décision. C'est quand même ça qu'il faut faire.   Les multiples raisons derrières nos transitions   [Stéphane] Tu as touché un point intéressant, c'est qu'on ne comprend pas toujours. On ne sait pas toutes les histoires derrière les choix. Je vais te partager ça. J'ai eu une conversation en 2011. Je travaillais dans un comité pour préparer le Conseil général de l'Église unie du Canada. Il y avait une personne qui travaillait pour l'Église, Karen Smart. Je ne crois pas qu'elle nous écoute, elle n'est pas bilingue. Et moi, un peu plus jeune, un peu moins sage, j'ai dit « Ah, moi, je suis un pasteur de paroisse. Moi, je ne serais pas capable de faire autre chose. C'est ça mon appel. Et elle m'a regardé ici. « Penses-tu que moi, vraiment, je voulais un poste administratif dans l'Église? C'était mon premier choix. » Puis là, elle m'explique qu'elle a un enfant qui a un handicap physique et qu'un horaire de pasteur de paroisse qu'elle avait, c'était devenu trop difficile parce que sa fille avait des besoins, il y avait des traitements, il y avait des choses comme ça. Donc, elle a choisi un poste avec un horaire plus régulier pour avoir une meilleure présence auprès d'elle. Elle a fait ce choix, elle l'assumait très bien, mais ce n'était peut-être pas son premier choix. Elle a fait cette transition-là pour le bien de sa famille. Et je peux pas m'empêcher de regarder qu'à 15 ans plus tard, j'ai quitté un poste de paroisse pour accepter un poste administratif dans mon Église. On m'a offert un très beau poste, mais il y a une partie que, oui, j'ai acceptée pour être plus proche de mon épouse et de mon fils, parce qu'il y a des enjeux pour chacun, et d'avoir un horaire un peu plus stable, un peu plus régulier, c'était bien pour ma famille. Des fois, il y a aussi ça dans les transitions professionnelles. On fait des choix pour soi, peut-être pour les autres qu'on aime, puis c'est important, et les gens ne comprennent pas toujours. Ils prennent pour acquis ou « Ah, bon, un tel a pris ce poste-là parce que ça payait plus. » Peut-être, mais ça permet d'être plus à la maison. C'est peut-être ça qui a joué. Donc, parfois, il faut faire attention à ces choses-là lorsqu'il y a transition professionnelle.   Changer pour suivre son appel   [Joan] Bien sûr, tout un chacun peut voir ma situation à tel ou tel endroit. Par exemple, je pense à ces deux personnes qui se séparent. Et la plupart des gens pourraient se dire qu'il n'y a aucune raison que ces personnes se séparent. Et puis, peut-être aussi nous, dans une certaine mesure, on était si bien dans notre communauté en Alsace. Mais il y a toujours la question qui est de savoir où est ma meilleure place. Où est-ce que je vais rayonner, en fait ? Où est-ce que je vais pouvoir vivre pleinement ma vocation ? Et ça, parfois, ça demande des tâtonnements, ça demande des essais, ça demande des transitions, ça demande des changements, ça demande des ruptures. On est vraiment très, très, très, très loin des itinéraires de jadis, c'est vrai. Et peut-être que l'on contribue comme ça à la fragmentation du monde, et peut-être que c'est une mauvaise chose, peut-être qu'on devra avoir beaucoup plus de discipline et s'obliger à rester à des endroits pour des raisons, par exemple, je ne sais pas moi, des directives d'Église. Mais d'un autre côté, il n'y aurait pas beaucoup de sens, parce que c'est devenu si important pour tout un chacun, cette notion un peu de développement personnel. Alors moi, je ne prends pas le côté New Age, mais je prends le côté, comment est-ce que je peux rayonner l'amour du Christ ? Comment est-ce que je peux le mieux être détendue dans ma relation aux autres, comment est-ce que je suis la mieux positionnée pour servir le Christ et son Église ? Alors peut-être que beaucoup, beaucoup de nos prédécesseurs, prédécesseuristes l'ont fait par contrainte, par question morale, par obligation, et peut-être que ça a porté du fruit, et puis voilà, vraiment je remets ça entre les mains de Dieu. Mais je crois que ce n'est pas vraiment comme ça qu'on va donner envie à d'autres de répondre à leur appel et de rentrer dans cette vocation. Je pense même qu'en termes d'exemple, c'est quand même mieux qu'on fasse les choses de façon à rayonner, de façon à être à la bonne place.   Faire des transitions pour demeurer authentique   [Stéphane] Tu me diras si c'est un peu la même chose dans ton coin du monde, mais ici tout est une question d'authenticité. Mais je pense qu'il y a quelque chose derrière ça. Lorsqu'on travaille avec des gens, nous en tant que pasteur, il y a plein d'autres boulots, il y a plein d'autres métiers et professions. Il faut être quelque part vrai. Si on sent que ce n'est pas incarné, ce n'est pas vécu, les gens s'en rendent compte. En même temps, ça amène un défi parce qu'on veut être authentique, mais il y a quand même la pression. Je te donne un exemple. Je ne suis plus en paroisse. Donc, la question qu'on me pose régulièrement, c'est à quelle paroisse vas-tu maintenant? Parce que tu es un pasteur. Tu n'es peut-être pas assigné à une paroisse, mais il faut que tu ailles à l'église. Eh bien, mes chers amis, je vais vous annoncer très honnêtement que ça fait environ huit mois que je n'ai pas été au culte le dimanche matin. Mais la question c'est, est-ce que je suis encore un pasteur? Est-ce que je suis encore un croyant? Moi je pense que oui, je fais toujours du ministère. Je n'ai pas arrêté pendant que j'étais en paroisse de dire aux gens, dimanche matin c'est bien mais vivre sa foi tous les jours, toutes les heures de la semaine, moi je trouve c'est bien aussi, c'est tout aussi bon. On essaie de trouver son chemin, on essaie d'être authentique, on essaie de concilier nos valeurs, notre profession, nos demandes, nos obligations. Comment trouver un milieu là-dedans? Quand on est en transition, comme toi, on change de région, on change de pays, quand on change de boulot, peut-être qu'on est obligé de changer de réseau. On veut demeurer honnête et en même temps on veut se donner de la place. Comment qu'on fait tout ça, ce n'est pas facile. Il y a cette pression extérieure de dire oui mais il faudrait que... Je comprends, mais il faudrait aussi que je dorme une fois de temps en temps, il faudrait que je vois mes amis aussi une fois de temps en temps, il faudrait que je garde une santé mentale, émotive et spirituelle une fois de temps en temps. Donc, il y a tout ce tiraillement et peut-être, comme tu disais, on est peut-être un peu mal équipé ou on ne réfléchit peut-être pas assez sur tous ces enjeux-là.   Transition en sororité   [Joan] En fait, l'année dernière, il y avait tellement de transitions autour de moi, dans ma propre vie professionnelle, avec cette amie qui a perdu brusquement son mari, une autre amie qui divorçait, une autre qui se séparait. Autour de moi, c'était un genre de tourbillon. Et donc, j'ai proposé à ces trois amies-là qu'on fasse un groupe WhatsApp qui s'appelait « Transition en sororité ». Et on se racontait un petit peu tout le bazar que c'était de changer, de changer de statut. Alors, ma copine qui est devenue veuve d'un seul coup, elle a découvert des trucs fous autour du veuvage, les dossiers dont s'occupait son mari. Puis quand elle voulait les reprendre, s'il y avait des hommes autour, ils disaient « laisse, laisse, laisse-moi faire, maintenant que tu n'as plus de mari ». J'aimerais vraiment garder la main sur les histoires de voitures ou de banques, s'il te plaît. On s'est rendu compte de plein de choses en discutant comme ça. Et cette période de transition, finalement, comme on l'a partagée à plusieurs, elle est devenue en tout cas pour la plupart trois au moins sur les quatre, c'est devenu un temps d'apprentissage, un temps d'exploration, un temps où on s'envoyait aussi à différents niveaux, chacune à un autre type de spiritualité, mais on s'envoyait beaucoup de ressources aussi intérieures pour cultiver un peu ce jardin intérieur, le lieu qui me relie à Jésus-Christ. Et puis, elles, ça se verbalisait autrement, mais c'était aussi hyper enrichissant. Et donc, je trouve que c'est beau de reconnaître que c'est difficile et puis de pouvoir faire appel à d'autres pour traverser ça, pour dépasser ça. J'ai une de mes meilleures amies qui va quitter un poste incroyablement, comment est-ce qu'on pourrait dire, coté. Le genre de postes où plein de gens font « waouh, waouh, dis donc, waouh ». Surtout à Paris, parce qu'elle a senti un appel en elle, comme toi un peu, pour reprendre les études de théologie. Elle ne s'est pas pour reprendre les études de théologie, mais elle a senti un appel en elle pour vivre tout à fait autre chose dans sa vie, pour être, comme tu dis, plus authentique. Elle vit une grande phase de transition comme ça. Elle a l'espace et la possibilité, peut-être financière aussi, peut-être l'environnement, comme tu dis, comme tu l'as fait toi pendant un an et demi, de regarder les choses en face et de les poser. C'est vrai que ça peut être un temps un peu dépressif. On pense à Eli, qui après avoir fait un certain nombre de conneries, des choses pas toujours très bien, tué des tas de gens, il passe par ce temps-là de dépression, un peu de déserts, et puis il cherche Dieu, il le cherche partout. Comme c'est écrit dans la Bible, Dieu c'est une petite brise, comme ça. Mais peut-être qu'on a besoin de passer par des moments comme ça jusqu'à ce qu'on ait cette brise, qu'on ait ce petit vent, ce petit souffle, qu'on le suive.   Conclusion   [Joan] Et tu sais, il y a une phrase qui m'énerve un petit peu des fois, qu'on utilise beaucoup dans les milieux chrétiens. J'aimerais bien voir l'avis des auditeurs, auditoristes, pour savoir si ça s'utilise ailleurs. Mais quand on nous dit « le meilleur est à venir ». Et puis alors, si tu veux être malin, tu écris « avenir » comme l'avenir, le futur, quoi, le meilleur est à venir. Mais c'est vrai que c'est quelque chose qu'il faut qu'on rappelle aux gens qui sont en transition, parce que quand t'es dedans, quand t'es vraiment là, dans le truc compliqué, t'as vraiment l'impression que t'as laissé, comme tu dis, la terre où t'avais tout, même si c'était une terre un peu d'esclavage, et que tu t'en vas vers quoi, en fait ? Bon, bah allez, hop, on y va. Le meilleur est à venir. [Stéphane] Et c'est le cas pour notre podcast parce qu'il y aura plein d'épisodes en cette quatrième saison. [Joan] Envoyez-nous des questions. [Stéphane] Oui, vos suggestions, on en a eu quelques-unes cet été, ne gênez-vous pas. Je veux prendre quelques secondes pour remercier l'Église unie du Canada, notre commanditaire. Peu importe la plateforme sur laquelle vous nous écoutez, n'oubliez pas d'aimer, de vous abonner, si on peut laisser un commentaire ou une note, et de partager.

Misschien heb je al eens gehoord over mijn online Reiki sessies of misschien vraag je je af: werkt dat wel, via een scherm?  In deze podcastaflevering neem ik je mee achter de schermen en vertel ik je wat deze sessies zo bijzonder maakt. Je ontdekt: Waarom je helemaal niets hoeft te doen of uit te leggen. Hoe de combinatie van Reiki, meditatie en een engelenkaart je diep laten ontspannen. Hoe de groepsenergie zelfs online voelbaar is. Waarom je ook na afloop nog profijt hebt van de sessie. Veel moeders zeggen na afloop: “Mijn hoofd werd eindelijk stil. Ik sliep die nacht dieper dan in lange tijd. En ik voelde me lichter, alsof er ruimte vrij was gekomen.” En weet je wat deze sessies misschien wel het meest uniek maakt? Dat je alleen hoeft te liggen en te ontvangen. Midden in je drukke leven, waarin je altijd maar doorgaat, hoef je hier even helemaal niks. Daarnaast vertel ik over de online Reiki sessies.

Are you interested in urban traffic safety and its effects on urban planning? Debate of the article titled Intelligent transportation systems for sustainable smart cities from 2024, by Mohamed Elassy, Mohammed Al-Hattab, Maen Takruri, and Sufian Badawi, published in the Transportation Engineering journal.This is a great preparation to our next interview with Brett Ferrin in episode 364 talking about how we are all responsible for traffic safety. Since we are investigating the future of cities, I thought it would be interesting to see intelligent transport systems and their role for the future of cities. This article presents intelligent transportation system technologies and their effect on systematic traffic flows, safety and environmental sustainability.Find the article through this link.Abstract: Intelligent Transportation Systems are rapidly expanding to meet the growing demand for safer, more efficient, and sustainable transportation solutions. These systems encompass various applications, from traffic management and control to autonomous vehicles, aiming to enhance mobility experiences while addressing urbanization challenges. This paper examines key components of Intelligent Transportation Systems, including Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks, Intelligent Traffic Lights, Virtual Traffic Lights, and Mobility Prediction, emphasizing their role in improving transportation efficiency, safety, and sustainability. It explores recent advancements in communication systems that enable real-time Intelligent Transportation Systems operations, contributing to the realization of environmentally friendly smart cities. Moreover, the paper addresses security challenges associated with Intelligent Transportation Systems deployment, particularly concerning public transit privacy, and presents case studies illustrating the benefits of Intelligent Transportation Systems integration in specific urban areas, emphasizing its role in fostering Sustainable Smart Cities. Additionally, it examines proactive initiatives by automotive manufacturers in adhering to Intelligent Transportation Systems standards, ensuring mutual benefits for drivers and urban centers.Connected episodes you might be interested in:No.048 - Interview with Hussein Dia about how autonomous vehicles could enhance road safetyNo.194 - interview with Oliver Stoltz about how road design influences driver behaviourNo.346 - interview with Mina Sartipi about connected autonomous vehiclesYou can find the transcript through ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠th⁠i⁠s link⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.What was the most interesting part for you?

Lig je 's avonds in bed en wil je slapen, maar blijft je hoofd maar doorgaan? Of word je vaak wakker 's nachts en voel je je 's ochtends alsnog moe? Je bent niet de enige. In deze podcastaflevering neem ik je mee in de grootste reden waarom slapen soms zo lastig is: je hoofd, je lijf en je zenuwstelsel staan nog in de "aan-stand".  Ik laat je zien hoe Reiki je helpt om terug te schakelen naar de ruststand, zodat je lijf weer kan doen wat het van nature kan: herstellen, opladen en diep slapen. Wat je ontdekt in deze aflevering: Waarom slapen niet vanzelf komt als je overdag alleen maar "aan" staat. Hoe Reiki je lijf en zenuwstelsel kalmeert en je hoofd stiller maakt. Veel moeders vertellen na een sessie dat ze eindelijk weer diep sliepen, dat ze uitgeruster wakker werden, of dat ze voor het eerst in lange tijd in één keer doorsliepen.

This is part 2 of the podcast. that will feature the year in Daredevil, the Spotlight story and the Takeaway for 2010.   The Year in Daredevil  Appearances: Daredevil #502-512, Shadowland #1-5, Shadowland After the Fall #1, Daredevil: Cage Match #1, Daredevil Black & White #1, New Avengers #59-60, New Avengers Annual #3, What If?

Meanwhile, Foggy and Becky win a case against some corrupt cops only to have the judge throw out the verdict which outrages Foggy, and he gets arrested for contempt of court and loses his law license.   Daredevil orders the construction of Shadowland – a Japanese Style fortress to be constructed on the site of the building explosion caused by Bullseye that killed 107 protesters in the The List at the end of 2009. It is to be the headquarters of the Hand in NYC.   Tensions escalate as Kingpin sends Lady Bullseye to infiltrate and assassinate both police officers and H.A.M.M.E.R. agents to cause chaos and a reaction. Which it does as Norman Osborn responds by deploying a full H.A.M.M.E.R. unit to Hell's Kitchen, which causes Daredevil to launch a declaration of war against the police, triggering a full-scale battle. At the end of The Devil's Hand, Matt travels to Japan to deal with important matters involving the Hand, so he leaves Black Tarantula in charge of the city and takes White Tiger with him.  Next in story “Left Hand Path” we see Matt in Japan hoping to unite the other leaders of the Hand. However, Bakuto, the Daimyo of South America, causes trouble. The other leaders seem to be conspiring against him. Despite their differences, Matt saves Bakuto from an attack and we learn Snakeroot has co-opted White Tiger to aid in the very intricate plans for Murdock and Shadowland back in New York City.   We return back to New York and the start of Shadowland, the big crossover event that goes into the Hand's plans for New York and Murdock ultimately, falling prey to them. This story was too big for just the Daredevil title and spawned its own limited series that needed to be read to understand what was going on in the Daredevil title. Those books along with a wrap up book entitled After the Fall while be our spotlight for this week. Buckle up everyone, you're in for a ride...  This Week's Spotlight: Daredevil #508 September 2010 “Shadowland Part 1” through Daredevil #512 February 2011 “Shadowland Final Issue” plus Shadowland #1 September 2010 “Shadowland Part 1 of 5” through Shadowland #5 January 2011 “Shadowland Part 5” and Shadowland After the Fall #1 February 2011.

"Residuality Theory is the idea that a random simulation of stress is more efficient than precision and prediction in a complex environment."Are you interested in creating antifragile systems? What do you think about the utilisation of residuals? How can we pivot smartness from the marketing to the innovative understanding? Interview with Barry O'Reilly, software architect. This is a special episode because of Barry's Residuality Theory which was established for software architecture but I think it can be VERY useful for urban systems as well, though it still needs proof. We will talk about his vision for the future of cities, Residuality Theory, antifragility and resilience, networks, and many more. Barry O'Reilly is a software architect with over 25 years of experience in the IT industry, having held chief architect roles at global companies like Microsoft, where he also served as worldwide lead for the solutions architecture community. A certified architect with expertise in Azure, service orientation, and IoT, Barry is the founder of Black Tulip Technology and the creator of Residuality Theory, a groundbreaking approach to software architecture that embraces complexity by designing systems inspired by dynamic stressors for greater antifragility and efficiency. Currently pursuing a Ph.D. in complexity science and software engineering at The Open University, he is a regular speaker at global conferences, a community leader, and author of Residues: Time, Change, and Uncertainty in Software Architecture.

Are you interested in how to create antifragile systems? Summary of the articles titled An introduction to Residuality Theory: Software design heuritics for complex systems and Residuality Theory, random simulation, and attractor networks from 2020 and 2022, by Barry M O'Reilly, presented at International Workshop on Computational Antifragility and Antifragile Engineering.This is a great preparation to our next interview with Barry O'Reilly in episode 360 talking about how residuality theory can be used for the future of cities. Since we are investigating the future of cities, I thought it would be interesting to see what Residuality Theory is and its connection to antifragility. These articles present Residuality Theory, a novel approach to software design, and proposes that complex software systems inevitably encounter unprecedented stressors, so it is best to create a system that can even handle those.Find the Residuality Theory: Software design heuritics for complex systems through this link.Abstract: Residuality theory provides a basis for designing software systems with resilient and antifragile behaviour through understanding sensitivity to stress and the concept of residual behaviours. By considering systems as a set of residues that exist in connection to stressors, we can more easily understand the role of design decisions in the life cycle of software systems and the unpredictable complex contexts they exist in. Residuality theory provides an alternative to the vague methods by which OOP, SOA, and microservice approaches arrive at system designs and most importantly places non-functional properties as first class citizens of design efforts. Residuality theory allows us to consider business, software, and infrastructure architecture across many different platforms and paradigms and allows us to describe architecture in the same way regardless of perspective. It allows us to describe approaches both for functional and non-functional requirements and for design, delivery and operation of applications. Residuality Theory paves the way for expressing architectures as mathematical structures which makes approaches like Model Based Systems Engineering [1] possible.Find the Residuality Theory, random simulation, and attractor networks through this link.Abstract: This article reviews earlier articles on the topic of residuality theory and places residuality theory in the context of the complexity sciences, relating the major concepts of residuality theory in terms of Kauffman Networks, complex networks, random simulations, and attractors. This paper aims to outline the logic of the theory and to expand on the use of matrices for encouraging emergent component decomposition, at the same time as proposing a related theory of software engineering that allows comparison between residuality theory and other approaches.Connecting episodes you might be interested in:No.020R - Antifragile (book summary)You can find the transcript through ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠th⁠i⁠s link⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.What was the most interesting part for you?

In that we Daredevil, Black Tarantula and White Tiger along with Master Izo trying to take down the Hand once and for all – but the Hand are trying to recruit Daredevil to be their leader. The story ends with Lord Hirochi, Lady Bullseye, Black Tarantula, and White Tiger board a plane to Spain, where Lady Bullseye says they will pursue Plan B.  In March, we get the return of another old foe – Wilson Fisk aka Kingpin himself in an aptly titled story called Return of the King. In part one of the story, we see Fisk in Spain where he befriends and falls in love with a woman, Marta, and her kids – only to see Lady Bullseye and the Hand killing them causing him to revert back to his old ways.  Kingpin returns to New York and announces his return and his plans to deal with Daredevil. That plan turns out to be working with Daredevil to take down the Hand. Meanwhile, Foggy is upset that Matt constant absence from the firm confronts him and ultimately fires him.  Daredevil tries to locate Master Izo without success and begins to doubt his alliance with Kingpin, suspecting that Fisk is using the Hand and the Owl to wipe out his rivals. Fisk, still haunted by visions of Vanessa, meets with the Owl and gives him Lady Bullseye's next target – Foggy Nelson.  The conclusion of this story – is a renumbered issue 500 of Daredevil and the conclusion of Ed Brubaker on Daredevil – will be our spotlight story for this week.   In Dark Reign: The List – Daredevil #1 we see Bullseye (now operating under the Hawkeye identity) go after Daredevil at the behest of Norman Osborn. Daredevil pursues him but falls into a trap: Bullseye lures him into a building full of protestors and then blows it up. The blast kills 107 people, leaving Matt devastated and furious—determined to take action.  Following that we get the start of a new story from new creative team - Andy Diggle and Roberto De La Torre entitled The Devil's Hand. In it, we see Matt as leader of the Hand. Since most of this story takes place in 2010 – we'll save talking about it more until our 2010 discussion.

Episode 75 - Murdock and Marvel: 2008 Part 2 2008 in the United States was a year of war and recession, leading to a bleak short-term outlook for Americans.  Comics and comic book movies reflected that, but also gave fans a lot to enjoy, hopefully taking people's minds off social and economic issues they were facing.  This is part 2 of the podcast. that will feature the year in Daredevil, the Spotlight story and the Takeaway for 2008.   The Year in Daredevil  Appearances: Daredevil #102-#112, Daredevil: Blood of the Tarantula #1, Avengers #36-37 and 39, World War Hulk: Aftersmash #1, Civil War Chronicles #5-6 and 8-12, What if?

Daredevil takes down Mr Fear but not before Matt Murdock and Milla Donvan's life is turned upside down.  In May, we get a single story “Sympathy for the Devil” that bridges us to the next big story arch. In it we see Matt Murdock struggling to deal with everything that's happened to him and Milla. This interesting story will be our spotlight story for the year.  Next, we get the 4-part “Cruel and Unusual” story arch in which Matt Murdock tries to help a death row inmate “Big Ben” Donovan who's unwilling to get help to stay his execution. Murdock can tell there's more going on here and Dakota North being assaulted, warned away from investigating Big Ben case by her father Samuel North and finally shot all seem to confirm that suspicion.  After Dakota is shot, Matt decides to investigate the shooter and, after following the clues, realizes that there had been men watching his law office from the beginning. These men turn out to be federal agents, who explain why Donovan was framed. Apparently, the special units needed crime boss Eric Slaughter to watch over the docks, which is why they protected him. In the end, Matt speaks with Samuel J. North. North tells him how the special units crossed the line, that he didn't want his daughter caught in the crossfire, that they needed someone to blame, and Donovan fit the profile. Interestingly, this story was billed as a 5-part story that ended after 4.  To finish out 2008, we get the return of Bullseye, well kind of. In a story titled “Lady Bullseye”, we see the Hand and their newest assassin – a woman who goes by the alias Lady Bullseye and was inspired by the original Bullseye who tore through the Yakuzi years before. Lady Bullseye frames Murdock for murder to keep him occupied (though he's arrested the morning after cheating on his wife Milla with Dakota North) while they go after Iron Fist (Danny Rand) and Black Tarantula (Carlos LaMuerto).  North provides an alibi for Murdock so he gets released and upon returning home and upon returning home they find Black Tarantula hogtied and an old man rummaging through Matt's kitchen, who introduces himself as Master Izo and says Matt is going to help him destroy the Hand. Apparently now is an opportune time as the Hand is in chaos as factions are fighting for control after Elektra is revealed to be a Skrull.  As the story progressed, we see that the Hand has a series of targets and eventually possesses Tarantula and White Tiger before a finally confrontation with Daredevil. It's then that Lady Bullseye reveals to Matt her true plan—she wants him to lead the Hand, and her efforts so far have not been to attack his friends and family, but rather to remove them as obstacles. Stunned, Matt strikes her. They fight again and she knocks him out, saying the Hand does not take no for an answer. Master Izo helps Matt up, and assumes he refused the Hand's offer; Matt says nothing. The story ends with Lord Hirochi, Lady Bullseye, Black Tarantula, and White Tiger board a plane to Spain, where Lady Bullseye says they will pursue Plan B.  One side story in the Lady Bullseye story arch, is Milla Donovan's parents have checked her out of the hospital Matt's been visiting and are trying to keep him away from their daughter.   In the Daredevil: Blood of the Tarantula one-shot, Daredevil helps Carlos LaMuerto face down his cousin, Luis, who is being backed up by his former gang from Argentina as they have arrived in New York to steal the power of the Black Tarantula and return it to its country of origin.  This Week's Spotlight: Daredevil #106 May 2008 “Sympathy For the Devil”  Recap Why We Picked This Story Daredevil Rapid Fire Questions The Takeaway This is the year that comic book superheroes evolve into billion-dollar movie properties.

In this episode of SB Talks, CEO Vincent O'Neill and CIO Nick Ryder, unpack the latest US jobs shock, where a massive downward revision of 258,000 jobs has not only rattled markets, but also led President Trump to fire the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics - raising fresh concerns about political interference in official data. They explore what this means for the Fed, as a key resignation opens the door for a Trump-aligned appointee, and fuels speculation ahead of the September rate decision. Closer to home, where softer inflation and signs of labour market weakness have markets fully pricing in a rate cut at tomorrow's RBA meeting.   Music provided by: Autumn Trumpet Background Corporate by LesFM | https://lesfm.net/ Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/ Creative Commons CC BY 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

As the story progresses, Potter escapes prison and goes on a killing spree, Milla starts going to a psychiatrist and Lily Luca – the woman who double crossed Murdock in Europe during the Devil Takes a Ride story comes to New York looking for Murdock's help.  When Potter shows up to ruin a dinner date between Milla and Matt, Murdock figures out that someone is behind the Gladiator's recent behavior and must stop Potter from killing Milla. The story ends with Potter getting arrested and Daredevil turning his sights on the person behind Potter's behavior change… Mr. Fear. Meanwhile, in a moment of jealous anger directed toward Lily (induced in no small part by Mr Fear's gas), Milla accidentally kills a man in the subway.  That leads directly into a “Triple sized” issue 100 featuring 7 artists and a huge six-part story titled Without Fear that finishes the year and bleeds into 2008. Issue 100 will be the spotlight story this week. For this recap, Daredevil confronts Larry Cranston aka Mr Fear but Fear is able to escape and when he returns home Murdock learns Milla has been arrested for murder. As the Without Fear story continues, we see Turk is now in the employ of the Hood who has designs of his own on New York and Hell's Kitchen. Daredevil learns of a chemist who assisted Mr Fear in his latest version of the fear gas who is now dead, and Milla fails her psych evaluation and is sent to Bellevue hospital under protective custody. Milla is eventually allowed to return home with a home health nurse to monitor her actions. But then she attacks the nurse after being visited by Lily Lucca which gets her sent back to Bellevue. Hood and Fear team up for a time but disagree on “the big picture”.   Ultimately the story ends with Daredevil confronting Mr Fear and demanding a cure to Milla's condition – to which fear reveals there is no antidote.  Turning him over to Detective Krutz, Cranston confesses that he is responsible for Melvin and Milla's recent action and claims he did it to Matt Murdock because he does not like him. Lilly Lucca, who went to Murdock's home because of Mr Fear, has disappeared and Murdock tells Foggy he's responsible for ruining Milla's life.  Meanwhile, in the Daredevil Annual that was released in December, Carlos Muerto aka Black Tarantula is released on parole, and he looks up his old prison buddy, Matt Murdock, for a job and help in getting his life back in order. And though it works for a time, ultimately, they end up going their separate ways. This is a story by Ed Brubaker with Andre Parks as writer.

Episode 71 - Murdock and Marvel: 2006 Part 2 Last week in the takeaway we talked about how 2005 had elements that pointed to a new golden age for comics, and there were elements that pointed to dangerous days ahead.  Well, if 2006 is any indication, Golden Age it is...   This is part 2 of the podcast. that will feature the year in Daredevil, the Spotlight story and the Takeaway for 2006.   The Year in Daredevil  Appearances: Daredevil #79-90, Daredevil vs Punisher #6, Daredevil: Father #5, Fantastic Four: The Wedding Special #1, Spider-Man Unlimited #12, Black Widow 2 #4-6, Playmates Toys #1, Spider-Man /Black Cat: The Evil That Men Do #4-6, Marvel Zombies #2-3, Pulse #13, Thing #3  X-Statix Presents: Dead Girl #1, I Heart Marvel: Marvel Ai #1, Marvel Team-Up #17 and 20, New Mangaverse #2, Amazing Spider-Man #530 and 534, Thunderbolts #100/105/107, Doc Samson #4, Wolverine #42, Exiles #83, Cable & Deadpool #31, Fantastic Four #539, New Avengers #22 and 24, Marvel Select Flip Magazine #16-17, Civil War #1-6, Civil War: Choosing Sides #1, Civil War: Young Avengers & Runaways #1, Civil War: Frontline #10  Writing: Brian Michael Bendis (#79-81), Ed Brubaker (#82-90)  Pencils: Alex Maleev (#79-81), Michael Lark (#82-87 and #89-90), David Aja (#88)  Inks: Alex Maleev (#79-81), Michael Lark (#82), Stefano Gaudiano (#83-87 and #89-90), David Aja (#88)  The year begins with the final three issues of The Murdock Papers from Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev.  In April, We get a new creative team and a new story arch with three parts centered around Matt Murdock in prison.  The first is entitled The Devil in Cell-Block D and in it, Brubaker and Lark do the unthinkable – while visiting Matt in prison, Foggy and their assistant Dakota are assaulted – with Foggy being stabbed while Murdock is unable to help while bring locked up in solitary confinement. The story ends with Matt Murdock frantically screaming, "His heart is still beating," over and over.  As the story continues, we see a funeral for Foggy (which Murdock is able to attend) and we see someone is running around the city in the Daredevil costume on – which does seem to help Murdock's case for not being our horned hero. In August, we see Fisk and Murdock working together to survive a prison riot and after Murdock escapes from prison with the help of the recently incarcerated Punisher.    In the finale of The Devil in Cell Block D, Murdock hunts down the other Daredevil – who turns out to be Iron Fist – who was trying to help keep Murdock's secret identity hidden. Matt decides to leave the country for Monaco to find the man responsible for having Foggy killed. But Foggy is alive and well and hiding under the witness protection program. The warden believes Matt was truly a helpless victim of Punishers and goes public with this on TV.  Next we catch up with the recently revealed to be alive Foggy Nelson in a single-issue story called “The Secret Life of Foggy Nelson. In it we see him try to reach out to Ben Urich and others but he is stopped by the FBI who are “protecting” him.  Finally, to finish off the 2006 – which bleeds into 2007 – we travel to Europe (specifically Monaco to start with) for Murdock's hunt for a lawyer, Alton Lennox, who helped “kill” Foggy Nelson entitled The Devil Takes a Ride. In it, he teams up with a mob bosses daughter who turns out to double cross him. He confronts her (and Tombstone) in Paris and tells her he's not so easily fooled. Daredevil finally finds out who has been behind everything and it turns out to be the wife of his most hated enemy, Vanessa Fisk. When Murdock confronts her in Zurich, we learn she is dying and he manipulated Murdock to get him to help free Wilson Fisk as her dying wish. Murdock initially refuses, but she knows he'll eventually agree and sets her plan in motion – killing Leland Drummond, the FBI director going after Murodck.   The Devil takes a Ride concludes with Matt finding out Foggy is still alive and also helping release the Kingpin from prison to honor Vanessa's memory. Though he has the Kingpin agree to have his U.S. Citizenship revoked and that Fisk will have to leave the country. Foggy agrees with Matt's idea to move their law firm to a new location as well as changing their business method of accepting clients from referrals only to avoid drawing attention from DD's enemies. It was also decided that Becky Blake will join their firm as a law partner (Nelson, Blake, and Murdock). Matt also moves him and Milla to a new apartment as well since too many of his enemies already knew the address of his previous apartment.  This Week's Spotlight: Daredevil #82 April 2006 “The Devil in Cell-Block D Part One”  Recap Why We Picked This Story Daredevil Rapid Fire Questions The Takeaway It doesn't get any better than this.  Comics in 2006 are at the top of their form both in terms of their content and their cultural impact.

About This Episode Why does a sovereign God tell us to pray? He knows what we need, does what He pleases, and can't be changed by human manipulation. If we're honest, sometimes it can seem like prayer is pointless, and that makes it even more difficult to "pray without ceasing." In this episode, I explore why prayer isn't our way of changing God's will, but His way of changing ours.  Timestamps: 00:00 Intro and the "problem" of prayer 7:25 Understanding whom we pray to 10:22 3 things prayer accomplishes in Christians 11:03 #1 Prayer acknowledges that God is God 12:33 #2 Prayer demonstrates our trust in God being God 20:11 #3 Prayer asks God to act as God 54:19 Reminder why my content isn't short! 54:48 Summarizing this discussion Book mentioned: "Sovereignty of God" by AW Pink Scripture Used: Matthew 6:8b Psalm 115:3 1 John 5:14-15 James 4:1-3 2 Corinthians 12:8-9 Psalm 50:12-15 Jeremiah 29:11-14 Romans 8:28-29 1 Thessalonians 4:3 Support My Work  • Monthly Support: https://www.Patreon.com/OnwardintheFaith  • One-Time Donations: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/OnwardintheFaith | https://account.venmo.com/u/Ray-Burns-6 Check Out My Devotionals on Amazon (affiliate links):  • 40 Moments From Christ's Final Days: https://amzn.to/4kGDDgE  • 25 Days of Christ in the Old Testament: https://amzn.to/41GuqfK Hashtags #Christianity #Theology #Faith #Pain #Suffering #ChronicPain Music Credits  • YouTube Outro Music by UNIVERSFIELD from Pixabay  • Podcast Outro Music by LesFM from Pixabay

Episode 69 - Murdock and Marvel: 2005 Part 2 It was a great year in comics, and maybe a turning point.  Movies, events and accolades abounded.  But somehow it all worries me a bit, in retrospect.  This is part 2 of the podcast. that will feature the year in Daredevil, the Spotlight story and the Takeaway for 2005.   The Year in Daredevil  Appearances: Daredevil #67-78, Daredevil: Redemption #1-6, Daredevil: Father #1-4, Exiles #54, 56 and 62, Marvel Age Spider-Man #15, New Avengers #1-3 and 11, Powerless #6, Ultimate Elektra #4-5, Bullseye: Greatest Hits #4, Marvel Knight 4 #13, What if…Karen Page Had Lived? #1, Wolverine #23-24, Marvel Knights Spider-Man #11, Ultimates 2 #3, Hercules #1, Marvel Nemesis: The Imperfects #2-6, Marvel Team-Up #9-10, Daredevil vs Punisher #1-5, House of M #5-7, Ultimate Fantastic Four #22, Black Widow 2 #1-2, Defenders #4, Secret War #5, Weapon X: Days of Future Now #4 along with the Elektra: On the Rise, New Avengers: Pot of Gold, Ultimate Spider-Man and Marvel Visionaries: Stan Lee graphic novels  Writing: Brian Michael Bendis (#67-78)   Pencils: Alex Maleev (#67-78)  Inks: Alex Maleev (#67-78)  The year begins with the continuation of the Golden Age storyline that starts in December. In it, we learn immediately about Alexander Bont (the Kingpin before Wilson Fisk). He was released from prison and plans to get revenge on Daredevil and Matt Murdock for helping him go to prison. Across the 5 issues, we see just how powerful Bont was and how Daredevil got him arrested as well as how Murdock made sure he went to prison for most of his life. Bont enlists the reformed Gladiator to kidnap and beat Murdock before attempting to reveal his now widely known secret on the streets of Hell's Kitchen.  Meanwhile, Agent Del Toro of the FBI approaches Matt Murdock asking for help understanding why he and others are superheroes and how to come to terms with her inheriting the White Tiger Amulet from her now deceased uncle Hector Ayala. Murdock as Daredevil does help, helping her to learn to use the Amulet and her new powers – which comes in handy as Del Toro is the one who comes to Murdock's rescue from Gladiator and Bont.   After that, we get one of my favorite Bendis stories to date – Decalogue. In it, we see a support group, the Devil Among Us, trying to come to grips of their re-ins with our horned hero. Things start with a junkie telling how she started going straight after seeing her boyfriend and his enlisted help Bullet get taken down when they had designs for taking over for Kingpin after Daredevil's proclamation, he was the new Kingpin. We get a story from another group member about failing to honor his father's wish from prison to have Foggy Nelson killed.   From there, the stories and the group take a turn. The DD support group continues and the wife of a super-powered serial killer tells how DD tracked down her husband but refused to let him fall to his death; The killer's last intended victim whom DD saved turns out to be a member of the group and doesn't take kindly to the story of a troubled man plagued by demons.   The DD support group continues with the tale of one of Milla Donovan's friends who went to her wedding with Matt Murdock and whose daughter later killed herself after surviving a bank robbery by the Jester. A goading and mysterious member of the group pipes up and promises there are deep dark secrets in all these tales and points out that Matt Murdock is there in the group with them; And he is.  The story ends with Murdock confronting the Demon that had possessed the Jester (and is currently inhabiting the mysterious member of the group) and interfered with so many lives after which he tries to explain to the group why he does the things he does; For the first time, Matt Murdock publicly admits to outsiders that he is DD.  After that, we get one last story from Brian Michael Bendis that spills over into 2006 – The Murdock papers. In it, we see the Kingpin attempt to use the knowledge of Murdock's secret identity to leverage a pardon for all his crimes from the FBI all with Ben Urich unwilling assistance. Claiming he has physical evidence proving Murdock is Daredevil, he gets Urich to write a story saying Kingpin is willing to tell all – forcing the FBI to decide to pursue a case against Murdock rather than their very weak case against Fisk.   At the same time, Milla Donovan has a change of heart and wants to be with Murdock again – which he happily wants as well.  This leads to Elektra and Black Widow (along with the recently fired Agent Del Toro) trying to help Daredevil get the papers before the FBI does from Fisk's lawyer's office. There's a big confrontation that includes Bullseye and in which Daredevil gets shot and is briefly presumed dead. Fisk reveals that the papers were a lie and meant to flush Daredevil out so the FBI could arrest him.   The conclusion of this epic storyline (and the Bendis run on Daredevil) will be our spotlight for this year…  This Week's Spotlight: #80 February 2006 “The Murdock Papers Part 5” and Daredevil #81 March 2006 “The Murdock Papers Part 6” Recap Why We Picked This Story Daredevil Rapid Fire Questions The Takeaway The beginning of an Golden Age?
