 THE SALVATION AND HEALING OF THE SOUL  Just as God is a Trinity – as Father and Son and Holy Spirit so we as human beings have three parts – a spirit, a soul and a body, and these three parts of us interact together. The Bible says that God desires for our whole spirit and soul and body be presented blameless at the coming of the Lord. (1Thessalonians 5:23). Through the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives these three parts of us were designed to work in harmony with one another to achieve what the Apostle Peter calls the goal of our faith – the salvation/healing (soterion) of the soul (psyche) (1Peter 1:9) The word soul as it is used in modern day language seems to have vague and different meanings for many people. Scientists say that it has no real existence that can be scientifically measured as an entity, and many people simply see the soul as our inner emotional and feeling life – That's why we have the term ‘soul music'. Plato the Greek philosopher believed that the soul was motivational and appetitive and expressed different inner desires.  But thousands of years before Plato the Bible was very clear about the soul as being the expression of our spiritual life. The word soul Is used three hundred and fifty times in the Old Testament including many mentions by David in the Psalms, which help us to understand the spiritual meaning of the soul. And the soul is mentioned over one hundred times in the New Testament. Our soul is actually the manifestation of who we really are as the expression of our inner self at any one time in our life. So what is Peter saying when he says that the goal of our faith is the salvation of our soul? And to answer that question we have to go back and look at how our soul came into being. The startling reality is that God didn't create our human soul as a fully working independent part of our being, as he did when he created our human spirit and our human body. We find that Genesis 2.7 says the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man ‘became' a living soul (nephesh). That word ‘became' a living soul intrigued me. It implied a process of something coming into being rather than a conclusive creative act of God. But I could find nothing in the Hebrew word ‘became' to suggest what the process was. It was only when I discovered the Scripture of Paul in 1Corinthians15:45 that I understood how we become the living soul that we become. The Scripture says The first man Adam became (ginomai) a living soul and the Last Adam (Jesus) became a Life Giving Spirit. That word ginomai means to generate, to bring into being, to cause to be. And this has even more startling implications.  That means that we are forming or creating our own self – the self that people see, the self that we think we are and whom others think we are. And that means that we are accountable for who we become - in what we think and what we believe and how we behave. And it is our soul that gets judged on the last day- what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and to suffer the loss of his soul' Mark 8.36. That is why the goal of our faith is the salvation/healing of our soul. That is why the Bible in the New Testament says that we are ‘being saved' (2Corinthians 2:15) It is a process of transformation and sanctification. Sanctification means more than just a status of personal piety – it means being set apart for a life of purpose and meaning according to the design and will of God. So how does this process of ‘becoming' operate? We saw in the opening Scripture that our whole spirit and soul and body are to function in harmony together in the will of God for our lives. God created the first man Adam from the dust (adama) of the earth and then he breathed the spirit of human life into him. These two created parts of humanity receive information that gets expressed in our souls. Our body with its five outer senses and other functional parts send material information to the soul which is then expressed by the soul in some form of response of either pain or pleasure or any other reaction. The spirit, which is made up of the mind and the heart sends inner spiritual information to the soul through the mind and the heart. The mind of the spirit sends truth or untruth to our soul and the soul responds to that information. The mind and heart of a child may be imprinted with helpful or unhelpful ideas and ideologies or be impacted by helpful or harmful emotional treatment. What the mind receives the heart believes and so the heart sends a belief system to the soul that a person will align themselves to for better or for worse. And so the journey of the soul begins as it receives multitudes of packages of information from both our outer and inner world into our souls to be processed into our becoming who we appear to be. This is a remarkably complex process but not altogether complicated, because God has designed our unique individual human spirit and body from before the foundation of the world. God had said ‘Let us make man in our own image' (Genesis 1:26. That word ‘image' is selem in the Hebrew and it means a shadow – so that everyone from Adam and Eve has been created with this shadow of ‘Godness' about them with different and unique talents and abilities and personalities. Each person was also created with potential gifts of the Holy Spirit which would come into operation according to their faith in Jesus. Their faith in Jesus and the understanding of the work of the Holy Spirit in their lives after the Holy Spirit was given at Pentecost empowers a person to release the supernatural power of God's love and goodness into their world around them. So how does this soul of ours get saved, and what happened to it for there to be a need for it to be saved in the first place? To understand that we must go back to the beginning where God created Adam and Eve and see what happened to the soul of man through the assault of satanic darkness upon their human spirit – their innocent but naive hearts and minds.  This sum of all darkness appeared to them in the form of a serpent in the beautiful Paradise of the Garden of Eden. God had created Adam and Eve in His own image and they lived together with him as their Heavenly Father, walking and talking together in their paradise. They had been created with an innocent and blameless spirit and a perfect physical body and had begun to ‘become' a blameless living soul – and it seemed that nothing could be better than this. Their minds were filled only with God's truth of who he was and who they were, and their hearts trusted and believed in him for all of their blessing and provision. There was an obvious point of difference between themselves and God, in that they were created beings – of a lower order than God who was Uncreated being like no other being. God was perfect in all his ways as Father and Son and Holy Spirit and humanity was less than perfect, of a lower order of being. But for a time of blameless innocence they would have felt ‘at one' with God, just as a baby child feels with its mother and in a place of satisfied agreement that all their needs were being met, and not yet recognizing themselves as separate with a sense of separation. But in each person's life that point of differentiation occurs as a necessary matter of reality, when one ‘I will crosses another ‘I will' And this awakening of differentiation for Adam and Eve was brutal as the serpent exploited their innocence and naivety and crushed their innocent spirits. He himself fully understood this point of differentiation and knew himself as a lesser created spiritual being as God - and he hated it. That is the evil sin of covetousness. Then Satan, this dark spirit being who had realised that point of difference - of being of a lower spiritual order than God, in his deception and pride coveted the status of being as God. He wanted to be in God's very likeness. How deeply did his covetousness fill him with resentment and hatred for these puny human beings about whom he heard with                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             outrage in his heart the words of God saying about them ‘let us make man in our own image… AND here I would like to complete that verse which adds ‘in our own LIKENESS' (not just ‘selem' – image -but ‘mut' - likeness – a three-dimensional substantial God-like being. To this statement about humanity coming into the likeness of God Satan said ‘No it would not happen, for this is what he coveted with all his heart. In Isaiah Ch 14 Isaiah speaks about the will of Lucifer as the five ‘I wills' of Satan. How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations! For you have said in your heart: I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation on the farthest sides of the north; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,  I will be like the Most High.' Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, To the lowest depths of the Pit. (Isaiah 14:12) It would be Jesus as the One who was set for a time yet to come in God's plan for humanity to fulfill those five ‘I wills' in the will of the Father. Jesus would come in the three-dimensional substantiated likeness of God as God and man and sow the promises of those five I wills for his beloved humanity.  Jesus would turn those five ‘I wills' of the selfish Satan into the five humble I wills' of his five wounds on the cross. The bible says of Jesus For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power (Colossians 2:9). Jesus would sow his life as a seed into the ground – a seed that would not abide alone but that would bear much fruit – the fruit of his resurrection. He would send the Holy Spirit of the life of God in Christ into a humanity that would bear the fruit of his life within them. This would be their salvation – the salvation of the soul – the healing of the soul that would one day be presented to him blameless. This is what predestination means – destined to be transformed into the likeness of God through Jesus and the Holy Spirit. In order to understand what the process is of the goal of our faith as being the saving of our soul we must go back to see the tragedy that happened to the soul of humanity in the Garden of Eden when mankind asserted his ‘I will' against the Father's will through the deception of the serpent.  We will then get an understanding of the plan of the healing and the salvation of the soul that is waiting for us to enter into by his loving grace and the gift of his faith through Jesus and the Holy Spirit. I will be speaking further about these things – to be continued. Amen.

Dawgman.com's Kim Grinolds took some time this week to catch up with Joe Knight, Executive Director of Dawgs Unleashed, the internal arm of the Washington Athletic Department that serves as an influencer marketing and NIL agency to increase revenue opportunities and business partnerships within the shifting landscape of collegiate athletics. In short? They act as the matchmaker between Washington's student-athletes and opportunities to help maximize their NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) rights. With the House settlement being signed off and agreed to as of June 6th, it means schools will now be able to pay their student-athletes directly. So now the UW student-athletes have two ways to make money; through the school's revenue sharing (which will be done for players playing football, basketball, softball and volleyball per UW AD Pat Chun) and through their NIL opportunities. And that's where Knight and his staff step in to help navigate the UW student-athletes through this new landscape. To start the podcast, Kim asked Joe to broadly define what Dawgs Unleashed will be doing, how they will work with UW's main donor collective - Montlake Futures - and what UW fans who are currently donating to Montlake Futures should expect moving forward as the collective's role is reduced and the role of creating NIL opportunities moves in-house. Joe also talks about what fans and donors can do if they want to get UW student-athletes involved with personal or corporate NIL opportunities.  And how is UW uniquely positioned to take advantage of their potential NIL marketplace within Seattle? Joe talks about that, as well as how important the new media marketing right deal struck with Learfield will help UW student-athletes in terms of generating additional NIL opportunities, and also clears up any confusion about what UW can do for true freshmen enrolling now and how the revenue sharing will look going forward. Is it true that a quarterback could make more than a kicker? It's clear that Jedd Fisch's 'Be A Pro' mantra extends into the realm of revenue share, but what will that mean in terms of dollars and cents for the players involved?  There is a lot to chew on here and Kim offers up some real-world examples that Joe expands on and offers clarity on. There's still so much that is brand-new in this post-House world regarding revenue sharing, NIL opportunities, and what will be kosher in terms of contracts that have to now go through the NIL Go clearinghouse. Are there multi-year NIL deals that have already been signed? For example, if they signed a two-year deal last year, does the second year of the deal now have to go through the NIL Go clearinghouse?  As we're already seeing and as should have been expected, legal challenges are already taking place.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

CALLED TO A HIGHER PURPOSE!In the passage from Matthew, we witness the powerful moment when Jesus calls His disciples to follow Him. These ordinary men, engaged in their daily work as fishermen, are invited into a higher purpose by the Son of God Himself. Without hesitation, they leave behind their nets, boats, and even their families to respond to the call of Jesus.

CREATED WITH A PURPOSE!In the opening chapters of Genesis, we are presented with the awe-inspiring account of God's creation of humanity. We are told that we are made in the image and likeness of God Himself, created with purpose and intentionality. Each one of us bears the imprint of our Creator, reflecting His divine attributes and potential.

In our Religion Block we share a new “Pastor Jack's Off” segment, this time hearing Jack Hibbs insist that all non-believers share a vehement hatred of evangelical Christians, but that the latter must endure that hatred out of love for God. Unfortunately for Pastor Jack, if he is in fact “hated,” it has absolutely nothing to do with his so-called faithfulness to Christ and everything to do with his politics.

In this episode, Chimdi and Bryant unpack the implications of the recent NCAA settlement and what it means for the future of NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) in college sports. As private equity begins to enter the collegiate athletics space, they explore how this shift could reshape team dynamics, recruitment strategies, and athlete compensation. The conversation highlights the tension between preserving tradition and embracing innovation—and how programs that strike the right balance will emerge as long-term winners. Takeaways The NCAA settlement marks a major turning point in NIL policy and athlete compensation. Private equity's entry into college sports could accelerate commercialization—and create both risks and rewards. Programs rooted in strong tradition must evolve to remain competitive in the changing landscape. Transparency, adaptability, and leadership will be crucial for athletic departments going forward. This new era offers both opportunities and challenges for athletes, coaches, and institutions alike.

Things are changing rapidly with NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) which has only made NCAA recruiting more competitive in the gymnastics world. Besides NIL, most gymnasts are trying to do NCAA gymnastics to get their education paid for (and if they're smart, they'll pursue a degree that means something and open doors). There are lots of ways to make good money, but getting a good education is a good place to start.A LOT of gymnasts and parents think they have all the time in the world to be in tip top shape for NCAA, but that is just not always the case. We find that a lot of gymnasts who are only 1-2 years out from June 15th are woefully unprepared for a variety of reasons. The biggest?·      A string of injuries tied back to unintentional underfueling that have gotten them off-track their skill/level trajectory.·      Performance that's good but not great (due to fatigue going into training, early fatigue during training, poor recovery, etc)·      Mineral depletion and undetected iron deficiency/recycling issues--- burnout, poor endurance, periods/PMS, etc ·      Not focusing enough on gymnastics—all the big name gymnasts who are making money with NIL were good gymnasts BEFORE they become influencers, not the other way around. Links: Secret Podcast (Episode about Recruiting + Nutrition Timeline)

Highlighting changes in recruitment, Anthony elaborates on how monetary influences have shifted the focus from traditional player development to financial negotiations. The episode also touches on how these dynamics affect aspiring high school athletes, the role of JUCO pathways, and the significance of choosing between D2 and JUCO offers.

In the latest episode of Intellectual But Ignant, Mako and Boogie sit down with an urban Atlanta hoop legend—Coach Tay Uno. He's the head basketball coach at Snellville Middle, assistant boys' coach at South Gwinnett High, and one of the directors of the nationally ranked AAU program, the Decatur Blazers. Joining him were his son, Kei-Sean Roberts—widely regarded as the No. 1 point guard in the class of 2030—and Treu Taylor, one of the purest shooters in Georgia from the class of 2029.This episode dives into a bit of everything for true basketball heads. Coach Tay shares his story, growing up in Atlanta's 4th Ward Boulevard and hooping alongside his longtime friend, NBA vet Lou Williams. He opens up about the bond he has with his son Kei-Sean, how kids sometimes overlook their parents' legacy, and how that dynamic plays out on and off the court. We also discuss how Coach Tay and his best friend, Coach Just—Treu's father and a co-founder of the Decatur Blazers—built one of the top grassroots programs in the country from the ground up. Tay speaks on the strong village of support behind the Blazers and how overwhelming, yet appreciated, that love truly is. The conversation covers who Kei-Sean and Treu model their games after, their favorite NBA players, and what it's like for Kei-Sean to constantly play up in age groups—and how that pressure sharpens his skills. We talk about the grind today's youth hoopers are on, how taking a break can set you back, and Coach Tay even gives his take on the NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) movement. Most importantly, we shine a light on what Tay and Just are building—a special, game-changing movement that even Jet Academy has partnered with. The buzz is real: people are starting to recognize that the Decatur Blazers may be home to the nation's top talent and could become the No. 1 youth program for the classes of 2029 through 2036 and beyond. This episode is packed with real basketball insight, the inspiring journey of two best friends creating something impactful, the example of fathers pouring into their sons, life gems—and of course, a little bit of that classic intellectual but ignant touch.

New rules allowing young athletes to profit off their name, image and likeness are stirring debate. How are lucrative deals impacting the game, ethics and players? Dr Phil discusses whether N.I.L is fair game.  From kindergarten through college, students at all levels are competing in athletics. New NCAA rules known as Name, Image, and Likeness allow student athletes to profit off their skill and popularity. The potential for youth stars to receive lucrative deals is changing the game. But is it for the better? Critics say N.I.L is eroding sportsmanship, creating entitled athletes and a new crop of 'sports manager' parents, pushing their kids to the brink for some bucks. Dr. Phil talks to N.I.L sensations the Cavinder Twins, a youth sports trainer, an ambitious basketball dad, and a former pro tennis player about the intense highs and harsh realities of competitive sports.

We need Emily Dickinson's startling originality today more than ever. This is why I sat down with Sharon Cameron, one of the greatest commentators on Dickinson's poetry, to explore some of Dickinson's poems in an extra-long podcast. “It's astonishing that after forty years of reading Dickinson, I am still ‘awed beyond my errand' by how Dickinson's poems let us experience something viscerally, at the edge of comprehension,” Cameron remarks in this conversation that forgoes clichés and favors critical acumen. By closely considering a few poems, Cameron explains how Dickinson speaks from placeless places and from within experiences outside of language, how her poems create wonder, and how her poems link without merging the mundane, the erotic, and other incommensurate dimensions of life. Sharon Cameron's book include: Lyric Time: Dickinson and the Limits of Genre; Choosing Not Choosing: Dickinson's Fascicles; and, most recently, The Likeness of Things Unlike: A Poetics of Incommensurability (Chicago University Press, 2024), on Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, Willa Cather, and Wallace Stevens.
