Podcasts about Lotz

We are now in the Advent season, the four weeks leading up to Christmas and the joy of Jesus' birth. Like Advent itself, the birth of the Savior has a lot of back story. Woven through the Bible's Old Testament are hundreds of prophecies that tell of a Messiah that will be born sometime in the future. Many of the prophecies, like those in Isaiah, are written centuries before the birth of Jesus. Cumulatively, they predict the conditions of the birth, the location of the birth, who he will be born to, what he is coming to do and so much more. Jesus fulfills every one of those prophecies. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, evangelist Anne Graham Lotz and investigative filmmaker Tim Mahoney delve into the prophecies of the Old Testament and the archeological evidence that shows that the core tenets of Christianity are grounded in the historical record. Mahoney's Patterns of Evidence production house has investigated the archeological evidence biblical prophecies and events from the Exodus to his most recent on Israel Dilemma that explores the Israel's covenant with God and the land. Lotz, well-known author and Christian speaker, is the daughter of the late evangelist Billy Graham. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I dette afsnit fortæller forfatter Tobias Bukkehave og vært Kristoffer Lind historien til ende om den israelske champagnespion Wolfgang Lotz. Han har nu vundet den egyptiske elites tillid, og han har til opgave at indsamle fortrolig information om det egyptiske militær og sabotere dets planer. Og så er Lotz blevet forelsket. Den tyske kvinde Waltraud Neumann har stjålet spionens hjerte, og hun skal vise sig at blive en vigtig allieret. Det arbejde, som Wolfgang Lotz og hans Mossad-kollegaer bedriver i regionen, danner baggrund for en epokegørende strid i Mellemøsten: Seksdageskrigen. På få dage omorganiseres magtforholdene i Mellemøsten til Israels fordel, alt sammen muliggjort af det agentarbejde, som Mossad over de sidste år har orkestreret.

Wolfgang Lotz er velkendt blandt eliten i 1960'ernes Kairo. Han er en charmerende selskabsløve, tidligere SS-officer og så har han et usædvanligt flair for hesteopdrætning. Men i virkeligheden er Lotz jøde, født til en tysk teaterfamilie i Mannheim, og er gennem en række tilfælde endt som israelsk spion. Hans opgave er at infiltrere overklassen i Kairo for at skaffe viden om det egyptiske våbenprogram. I dette afsnit åbner forfatter Tobias Bukkehave og Kristoffer Lind op for den komplicerede historie om en af Mossads mest berygtede agenter. De fortæller også om Lavonaffæren fra 1954, en forfejlet Mossad-aktion der havde civile institutioner i Kairo som biografer og biblioteker som mål.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This story is about examining our beliefs, no matter where they come from. Sally's childhood was far from ordinary. Raised in a Jehovah's Witness household, her life was dictated by strict rules and the looming presence of a cult that dictated every aspect of her existence. Sally shares the stark realities of her upbringing—no birthdays, no Christmas, no semblance of a normal childhood. She recounts the emotional and mental abuse at the hands of her stepfather and the congregation that turned a blind eye. In ‘The Truth is a Lie,' Sally's young adult fiction book, she unveils a narrative that mirrors her own experiences. It's a tale that delves into the complexities of life within a cult, the psychological warfare endured by its members, and the incredible strength it takes to escape. Sally's story is  a journey of self-discovery, of finding one's voice amidst the silence imposed by others. It's a story about having the bravery and guts to break away from onellife to form another. Sally's experience lends many insights on personal growth, spirituality, and the importance of finding trusted mentors. Her advice to those in similar situations is highly practical —seek help, make a plan, and take baby steps towards a better life. This episode is an invitation to reflect on the rules that define all our worlds. It's a story of seeking one's truth, even when that breaks the role you are told to play. This story will challenge you to look at your own life, and ask where your truth lies.     What they're saying:   “This is a beautiful book about life, its imperfections, its challenges, and its joys. It is a book of hope and wisdom for all of us facing a bump in the road.” –Pragito Dove   “Pat has woven together beautiful stories of life setbacks that have been transformed into spiritual growth. This book is a gift and a must-read for souls experiencing pain and yearning for growth.”   –Gary Hensel   Learn more at   Follow Bump on: ➡️  ➡️  ➡️  ➡️  ➡️   

How did the universe evolve, and more importantly, how might it end? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome theoretical cosmologist and astrophysicist, Dr. Katie Mack, author of the recently published book, “The End of Everything (Astrophysically Speaking).” In Part 2, we look at dark matter, Gravitational Memory Effect, and more. (You can listen to Part 1 here.) We dive right in with a question from David: “I was wondering if any physicists have looked into the idea that the “empty” space in an atom is actually “filled” with dark matter. What experiments could be done to prove or disprove this hypothesis?” In order to answer David, first Katie explains the science supporting the idea that dark matter exists, including gravitational lensing and other evidence. The fact that there are indications of dark matter in areas where there is sparse regular matter suggests that dark matter is an entirely different kind of particle. Katie describes many of the ways that that dark matter is unrelated to the empty space in atoms, including the fact that dark matter has no real interaction with atoms at all. Chuck asks whether the amount of dark matter still holds the key to how the universe evolves as he was taught or have new understandings made it entirely irrelevant? Katie explains that dark energy has replaced dark matter in importance, and that's what's making the universe expand faster. But we really don't know what it is, or what it's doing, or even if it will remain constant. Our next question comes from Aileen Balderas: “I recently read about something called the Gravitational Memory Effect. This talks about how space remembers certain things. Gravitational wave signals have the power to make it so that the universe remembers what happens to it. How can scientists say that the universe is able to remember things?” Katie unpacks this fascinating phenomenon which she only learned about five years ago. It turns out that, as Chuck puts it, “The universe has memory the way that memory foam has memory, not like the way elephants have memory.” Chuck asks Katie about flying planes, which she learned to do in late 2020 during the pandemic, after her book came out. Talk about a lockdown hobby! Katie shares why she loves flying so much, and what she gets out of it. And while she doesn't own her own plane, she has a share in a single engine airplane with 4 other people. Chuck also asks the inevitable question: Star Trek or Star Wars? Katie's answer: Star Trek! We end the show with Katie describing what she's doing at The Perimeter Institute, an independent research institute that's dedicated to stretch the boundaries of our understanding of physics in areas like cosmology, particle physics, quantum information and various areas of theoretical physics. Katie's been working with them to create some short videos. Check out Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics on YouTube to watch "Quantum Physics 101" and "Cosmology 101."

Ever wondered why some neighborhoods transform seemingly overnight while others remain unchanged? This episode looks into the complex web of gentrification through three articles published in the last few years. We kick off with a deep dive into the term's origins and its multifaceted meanings, drawing from an insightful article by Planetizen. Along the way, we tackle the often misunderstood triggers of gentrification and challenge the conventional wisdom that luxury condos are the main culprits, especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, as discussed in a compelling piece from The Atlantic.We then shift gears to explore recurring trends, comparing shifts from the early 20th century with those from the 1980s and 1990s. Drawing on Leslie Kern's book, "Gentrification is Inevitable and Other Lies," we unravel how remote work is shaping smaller cities and the varied pressures behind gentrification across regions. Our discussion underscores the necessity of involving local residents in community development to ensure new amenities benefit existing communities, not just newcomers. We also highlight the limitations of market-rate housing and call for improved public engagement in urban planning. This episode is packed with nuanced insights and actionable ideas to better understand and address the complexities of gentrification.Show Notes:Episode Articles:The Pandemic Disproved Urban Progressives' Theory About Gentrification: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2023/06/dc-solar-power-ponzi-scheme-scandal/673782/Gentrification is Complicated.

Florida Panthers (Puma concolor couguar) are a distinct population of pumas that live predominantly in southwest Florida. Pumas used to roam the entire United States, but habitat loss and overhunting in the 1800's and early 1900's caused them to disappear from much of their range. Every breeding population of pumas East of the Mississippi river vanished, except for one. South Florida, due to its wild and swampy nature, was able to thwart human development just enough for its inhabiting pumas to narrowly avoid oblivion. These surviving pumas, or Florida Panthers, represent the resiliency of wild south Florida. The decades since their near extinction have been filled with controversy, conservation, and politics. This iconic cat still has many challenges to face, and with only 200 or so remaining in the wild, their future is uncertain. Daniel was first introduced unofficially to this animal during his first trip to Everglades National Park in 2017. The Florida Panther and the swampy, remote areas in which they are found captivated Daniel's imagination. Every subsequent trip to the Everglades and southwest Florida had at least some time dedicated to searching for this cat, all to no avail. In January 2024, after spending months preparing and researching, Daniel embarked on a five-day solo trip in the backcountry of the Big Cypress National Preserve, with the sole objective of finally crossing paths with a panther.But what exactly IS a Florida Panther? Are they only found in Florida? Are they black? What is the difference between a Florida Panther and a mountain lion? And of course… do they eat people?! Luckily, Bill was able to meet Daniel in south Florida to record an episode about the Florida Panther and tackle the questions and misconceptions that leave this cat shrouded in mystery. This episode was recorded on January 8th, 2024 at Everglades National Park in Homestead, FL. Episode NotesWhen Daniel was talking about Florida Panther size, they were described as smaller than other pumas out west. It should also be noted that while they do fall to the bottom of the size and weight scale of pumas in North America, the populations of pumas closer to the equatorial rain forests in South America are even smaller. This reinforces the notion discussed in the podcast that pumas in colder climates or higher elevation tend to be larger than pumas in warmer climates and lower elevation. Also, Bill asked Daniel what their life span was, and Daniel was not sure. Bill guessed 20-30 years. According to Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, “Panthers can live up to 20 years or more in the wild. Female kittens have a good chance of living 10 years or more. Males have a tougher time, but if they survive to five or six years old, they are likely to live even longer to 10 or more years.” Nicely done Bill!While discussing vehicular collisions as the number one cause of death of Florida Panther, Bill and Daniel discussed how in 2023, 13 Florida Panthers were killed by vehicular strikes. So far in 2024, there have been five. Bill and Daniel referred to the rule about animals being larger the farther you get from the equator, but they couldn't remember the name of the rule. It's Bergmann's Rule, and it's defined as: “one of the best-known generalizations in zoology. It is generally defined as a within-species tendency in homeothermic (warm-blooded) animals to have increasing body size with increasing latitude and decreasing ambient temperature. That is, Bergmann's rule states that among mammals and birds, individuals of a particular species in colder areas tend to have greater body mass than individuals in warmer areas. For instance, white-tailed deer are larger in Canada than in the Florida Keys, and the body size of wood rat populations are inversely correlated with ambient temperature. This principle is named after a nineteenth-century German biologist, Karl Bergmann, who published observations along these lines in 1847.” - from The New World EncyclopediaLinks Panther Pulse, the database containing documented Florida Panther deaths and depredations: https://myfwc.com/wildlifehabitats/wildlife/panther/pulse/Path of the Panther: https://pathofthepanther.com Sponsors and Ways to Support UsGumleaf Boots, USA (free shipping for patrons)Thank you to Always Wandering Art (Website and Etsy Shop) for providing the artwork for many of our episodes!

In this episode, Sally Lotz and I discuss her traumatic experience of being involved in a religion she believes is a cult… controlling its members and victimizing the children in many ways, including taking away their voices when they are physically, emotionally and sexually abused in private. Sally was shunned by the family and cult when she started dating a boy that was not part of their beliefs… she was sent away at the age of 15! As an adult, she realized she had trauma built into her that she must heal for her to be healthy for herself and for those she loves. Sally was able to break free and has written a book based on her true-life experiences.     Sally Lotz is an author, writing coach, and mentor.

Imagine, for a moment, being a child and knowing something was wrong, but being too young to understand.Now picture yourself in a cult without knowing the word for it.That's what happened to Sally Lotz.Until she was four years old, things seemed normal. Then her parents divorced, her dad left the picture as he served overseas in the military, and her mother took Sally and her siblings to a new city.Suddenly, everything changed.Instead of having freedom to explore, now all her decisions were made for her. How she dressed for school and which classmates she was allowed to interact with (meaning none). Her role was to do only what others told her to do.Sally knew something wasn't right. One of the first clues came when she buried a butterfly she believed was dead, and then unburied the soil later and found the butterfly was gone. If there was no heaven, as Sally was told by the cult, where did the dead butterfly go?Her new stepfather abused her in every horrible way imaginable. And her mother accused her of being a “bad influence” moments after her stepdad kicked their cat across the room. Sally was made to feel that being sexually molested by him was her own fault. On top of that, she was told there was no way to prove it even happened because she didn't have two witnesses to back her claims.Ironically, the people who caught Sally making out with her high school boyfriend didn't need two witnesses. All it took was their word, and Sally found herself facing a perverted, sexually charged interrogation by multiple adult men.Sally soon left the cult and joined her father who was now in San Diego, where she went straight from having to follow rules for everything to no rules at all. She finished school, then tried college, but it didn't work out. She went back to what felt familiar and found a man to take care of her. They married when she was only 20 and had three children.Despite all that had happened up until then, Sally's life seemed to be improving and everything seemed fine.But Fine is a 4-letter word.She found that out when her husband joined a cult similar to the one she'd been raised in, and all the same rules suddenly came back into play. She divorced him. But then her mother, who had not left the cult, came to stay with her.In a moment, when you meet Sally, you'll join her on a journey down a winding road with double-backs and wrong turns as she comes to cope with two traumas – the trauma of an abusive home and religious trauma. These two things have fueled her career as an author, writing coach, and mentor. Her fourth book, The Truth is a Lie, is a young adult novel based on her life growing up in a cult and aims to help others understand and gain strength.Sally's hype song is "Girl on Fire” by Alicia Keys.

Hey Phoenixes, you know that this podcast is dedicated to helping women feel and be free and in their power.  It's my core belief that  It's important to hear the stories of what so many women have gone through,  And to have the conversations through platforms like these so that others can have opportunities for aha moments, awakenings, signs, and nudges towards their own freedom. Today's episode is no different and can be triggering for those who have gone through similar forms of abuse.  Our guest will share her story of emotional, sexual, and religious abuse. If you need support after listening to this episode please reach out to a local therapist, you can reach out to myself, and you can call the hotline 1-800-273-TALK (8255).

In this solo episode I explore the concept of maternal instinct which fell back onto my radar in recent weeks following a viral video featuring Maggie Dent and Kate Richie. I discuss my own thoughts on this topic, recent research on the neurobiology of the mother and father brain, patriarchal implications; and emphasise the importance of understanding parenting to be a skill that transcends one's sex or gender and is not dictated by biology alone.  **Additional Reading at the bottom of these show notesHere is where you can find out more about me (Yara), how to work with me and some resources:Why Am I So Angry Workshop*** Waitlist for The Rebirth, Group Coaching for Mamas *** This is my signature 3 months online group coaching container for mothers which covers family of origin, inner child work, nervous system basics, anger, boundaries and much more. @lifeafterbirthpsychology  www.lifeafterbirth.com.auFree Inner Critic WorkbookFree Values Aligned Living Workbook    If you'd like to read up on some of the literature I used to inform this episode, please see the titles below and there are many more available on google scholar: Abraham, E., Hendler, T., Shapira-Lichter, I., Kanat-Maymon, Y., Zagoory-Sharon, O., & Feldman, R.

Program for 09/08/23 Jim Wood: Interview with Rachel-Ruth Lotz Wright, Preparing to Meet Jesus

In this episode, I speak with Sally Lotz about being a cult survivor, abuse, advice for someone in the same position and her family complexities.★ Sally's Bio: ★ It took me a long time to find my passion and place in this world. I grew up in a well known doomsday cult, the Jehovah's Witnesses. I was kicked out of the house at age 16 for having a boyfriend, however, my step-father who was abusive (in all forms) was never punished or reported to the police.I wrote a young adult novel (my 4th book) about it, called The Truth is a Lie. While the story is fictional, it's based on my life in the cult, and my family life - which sadly, is quiet common in the cult.Connect with Sally:https://www.sallylotz.com/https://www.youtube.com/@howigotthere4184https://medium.com/@SallyLotz
