Episode Notes This week on Live Like the World is Dying, we have a crossover episode with the Strangers in a Tangled Wilderness Podcast, with our monthly feature zine Martyr Culture by Sara Blum., which is an essay about martyr culture within the Kurdish Freedom Movement. We have an audio version of the zine as well as an interview with Sara about the piece and her time with the YPJ. But, if you'd like to read along then check out our monthly features on our website and you can read along there for free. You can also get a physical copy of our monthly feature zine, but unfortunately not this one, by signing up for our Patreon . Our June feature was generously provided by Sara Blum, an internationalist who spent several years with the YPJ in Rojava, to accompany and contextualize our newest book, Orso: Wartime Journals of an Anarchist, which is currently available for preorder as of right now at tangledwilderness.org, and will be regularly available/ship out in early-mid July.  Orso contains the first-person narrative of Lorenzo Orso Orsetti–also known as Heval (he-vawl) Tekoser (teko-cher) Piling (pih-ling), now Sehid (sheh-heath) Tekoser (teko-cher) or “martyr Tekoser–an internationalist soldier in Rojava. This journal was published in its original Italian following Oro's death. We're excited to bring you the first English edition, which includes additional essays that share the historical and cultural context in which Orso lived, fought, and died. We're excited to bring his message to a new audience. The struggle against Daesh for an autonomous, liberated region in Rojava is bigger than one person, but one person's life can offer us a glimpse of a vast project and how one life can fit into it. Sara's essay helps build a backdrop for the world Orso gives us a glimpse of in his journals. This is part one of this episode, as the interview with Sara ended up being quite long. Tune in in 2 weeks for the second half of the interview, as next week is This Month in the Apocalypse on Live Like the World is Dying. We won't get to it until the second half of the interview, but the word of the month this month is about those who are mindful.  Publisher This podcast is published by Strangers In A Tangled Wilderness.

A conversation from History with Chris Harding.In Mark Vernon's new book "Awake!", he argues that we're missing something from our view of the great visionary artist William Blake.It's that word - ‘visionary.'Mark argues that Blake's extraordinary art reveals an expanded experience of the world that Blake lived with every day: angels, fairies, realms beyond our own. Blake wasn't, in other words, making it all up…Mark says that we shouldn't be afraid of the ‘supernatural Blake.'

If you live with other people, there's always ONE job no one wants to do. Maybe it's cleaning the bathrooms or folding laundry or picking up dog poop. But there's always SOMETHING everyone avoids. Not so with Jesus. There was a job to do - and he did it. In fact, he didn't even blink an eye. It didn't faze him one bit. One of the more profound ways we can live like Jesus is by NOTICING the needs around us. It will require a little humility and service - but it's one big way we LIVE LIKE JESUS.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes What If You Could Live Like You're 16 Again? June 4, 2025 | Episode 5108  Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Do you have a song or memory that instantly transports you back to your youth? I experienced that magic moment while watching a YouTube video about David Cassidy and the iconic Partridge Family tour bus. That nostalgic rush got me thinking about what life would look like if we could recapture the mindset and freedom we had at 16 years old. When you were a teenager, you dreamed big, had real friends, and looked forward to the future with excitement. You weren't weighed down by debt, stress, or the daily grind that seems to impede living. What if you could bring that energy and perspective into your adult life today? Featured Story I was relaxing on my patio, scrolling through YouTube, when a video about the colorful Partridge Family tour bus caught my eye—seeing David Cassidy brought back vivid memories of cutting records off cereal boxes as a kid and waiting impatiently to hear them play. That instant time travel feeling reminded me how powerful it can be to reconnect with who we used to be before life got complicated. Important Points When you were 16, you educated yourself daily, had genuine friendships, and dreamed obsessively about your future without letting daily responsibilities crush your spirit. The job you do today would have felt like prison for your 16-year-old self, which should make you question whether you're truly living or just surviving. You don't need to throw everything away to recapture that youthful energy–you need to get back in rhythm with who you are underneath all the grown-up complications. Memorable Quotes “You don't have to be 16 again, but imagine how much fun you could have if you knew then what you know now, and you used every single bit of it today.” “Work sure gets in the way of life. You don't think much about that when you're a kid, but all you want to do is go to work.” “I still think like I'm 16 today, and I still feel like I'm yet to grow up.” Scott's Three-Step Approach Start dreaming again about your future and get excited about what's coming, no matter how many years you have ahead of you. Surround yourself with real friends who genuinely care about you, not just office acquaintances or social media connections you've never met. Busy yourself with actually living life instead of getting caught up in everything that distracts you from who you really are.

In a world filled with darkness, Jesus boldly declares, “I am the light of the world.” This message from John 8:12–30 reminds us that darkness leads to sin and death, but the light of Christ leads to forgiveness and life. Discover what it means to follow the Light, live with a heavenly mindset, and walk daily in the truth that sets you free.

The reason “Serving is our Privilege” is we understand that as we offer our lives as a sacrifice to God, He inspires our heart to want to be part of what He's doing. As a matter of fact, Jesus takes it personal when we serve. “When you've done it unto the least of one of these, you've done unto Me.”

It is the Lord Christ you are serving. Matthew 20:26-27 NIV Whoever, wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave- just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.

As baptized followers of Christ, we are all called to be missionaries! This week, we reflect on what it means to live as missionaries in our everyday lives—whether at home, work, or in our communities. Jesus' Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20) invites us to go out and make disciples, but it also calls us to live in a way that reflects the love and hope of the Gospel. How can we embrace our mission to share Christ with others, simply by the way we live?How can we be intentional in sharing our faith with others—whether through words, actions, or simply living in virtue? What challenges do you face in living out your faith in a world that can sometimes feel distant from God? Together, let's inspire one another to live as missionaries right where we are.Join us every Tuesday LIVE in our Member Community! connect.blessedisshe.net

Applying neuroscience and psychology to education and formation, pioneering researcher Dr. Mary Helen Immordino-Yang draws connections between emotions, relationships, brains, stories, meaning, and purpose to shed light on how we learn, grow, and thrive.Her research on the brain shows how we're woven together in an intricate and glorious network of life, and when we synthesize the neurological, the psychological, the physical, and the social, we're able to come to a deeper and more impactful understanding of human development and flourishing.From the intricacies of adolescent brain development to the emotional and spiritual scaffolding of a meaningful life, she explains how transcendent thinking, story, and emotional engagement fuel identity formation and long-term flourishing. Drawing from cutting-edge research and humanistic insight, she explores how young people co-create their worlds and how adults can support them in becoming adaptive, wise, and agentic.In this conversation with Mary Helen Immordino-Yang, we discuss:The value of integrating neuroscience with educational, emotional, and moral developmentThe strange and glorious case of the adolescent brain—how we mature, learn how to think, feel, and exercise our agency, and strive to become wiseThe emotional and relational nature of education and moral development—expressed in nurturing conversation between caring adults and youthThe importance of agency, intentionality, and transcendent thinking in human thrivingNeural plasticity and the capacity to change our brains throughout our lifespanAnd, the big picture of thriving, that brings together our mental life, neurobiology, and other physical processes—with relationships, community, and society at large.Episode Highlights"Thriving is really about living like you mean it.""We co-construct one another's lived experiences by the virtue of being there together.""You learn how to have an instinct—it's not something you're just born with.""Transcendent thinking literally grows the adolescent brain.""Meaning-making is an abstraction, a transcendent story we construct to bring coherence to our lives."Show NotesThriving as dynamic, purposeful engagementEmotional experiences shaping brain developmentCo-construction of identity in social relationshipsAdolescence as a time of neurodevelopmental remodelingHow transcendent thinking fosters brain growth over timeAdolescents' drive for deeper moral and ethical narrativesMeaning-making as a tool for personal and societal transformationLinking personal experience with historical and social narrativesDefault mode network and its role in reflection and creativityFrom instinct to insight—how the brain learns to feelThe relationship between emotional health and physical well-beingGut-brain connection, serotonin, and embodied cognitionTranscendence as a cognitive-emotional developmental milestoneInfluence of media, anxiety, and political division on adolescent mindsBrain-based evidence of narrative engagement growing identityLearning to align present feelings with long-term purposeBrain science dismantling the myth of "subjective = unimportant"Agency, presence, and intentionality in thrivingIntegration of neuroscience with humanistic and applied methodsRole of narrative in therapy, art, education, and spiritualityHow adolescents learn to feel, not just what to thinkCulturally-rooted belief systems shaping neural responsesThe importance of reflection, introspection, and deep conversationAdolescents' innate capacity for moral concern and big-picture thinkingLearning through story: case studies in adolescent empathyReclaiming agency from external cultural and tech influencesIdentity as a lifelong, evolving narrative—not a fixed outcomeGrowth as intentional reflection, not cognitive accelerationSpiritual wellness as iterative construction of meaning and valuesParenting and mentoring for deep reflective growthAdaptive wisdom: balancing immediacy with long-term visionSigns of flourishing: self-liking, relationship quality, agencyImportance of diverse experiences and safe, supportive relationshipsAdults thriving through neuroplasticity and meaning-makingThe lifelong role of story and belief in shaping purposeCognitive engagement and values-based direction over passive successEmotional safety and time as prerequisites for transcendenceListening, asking why, and welcoming the unknown as virtues of thrivingPam King's Key TakeawaysBrain science isn't better or worse than other perspectives on human life, but it offers incredible insight for how we grow and thrive.Stories and narratives are the essential threads that hold our lives together; how you think and the story you're telling yourself matters for your thriving.Education isn't just a cognitive process. Our emotions and our bodies and our sense of connection and safety in relationships play a central role in learning.Spiritual health connects how our transcendent thinking informs our identity and how we live in reciprocity with the world beyond ourselvesThriving involves an agile agency that helps us live with skill and intentionality—so “live like you mean it.”About Mary Helen Immordino-YangMary Helen Immordino-Yang is the Fahmy and Donna Attallah Professor of Humanistic Psychology at the University of Southern California. And she's the founding director of the USC Center for Affective Neuroscience, Development, Learning and Education. Candle is just a lovely image for Mary Helen's work that brings so much light to the world.She's also a member of the National Academy of Sciences and has received several national awards for her ground breaking research and its implications for educationWith a focus on educational psychology and the role of emotions in brain development and growth, she's an expert on the neuroscience of learning and creativity.
