She wanted to grasp the lasting, life-enhancing kind of love that we hope our lives are built on.After her divorce, Heidi dated, she journaled, she cried, she kept going. And eventually she found true love, and herself in the process.In this episode, we're talking about:The one thing you must get clear on before you swipe again.How to stop dating “projects” (and what to look for instead).How “taking turns picking each other up” can be the secret sauce in successful partnerships.Why laughter might matter more than anything else.If you've been wondering whether love is still out there for you, let this be your reminder: it absolutely is. And sometimes, all it takes is one more brave step.

From MPR News, Art Hounds are members of the Minnesota arts community who look beyond their own work to highlight what's exciting in local art. Their recommendations are lightly edited from the audio heard in the player above. Want to be an Art Hound? Submit here.Happy Homegrown!It's that time of the year when, for eight days, local music reigns in Duluth and Superior. The Homegrown Music Festival continues through Sunday. Emily Lee of Duluth is attending Homegrown for her twelfth year, and like many music lovers, she's studied up on the Field Guide to make sure she can see her favorite bands. Check out the schedule here.Emily says: I'm going to see [Blues-rock band] The Adjustments Saturday night. Strikepoint is playing this year, which is kind of unique. They're an amazing handle choir here in town. My husband can't wait to see Bratwurst, and you have to watch out at that show, because Bratwurst throws raw meat off the stage. So a lot of people show up in ponchos.Something new this year is the Homegrown Variety Showcase on Friday night at Studio Four, and it's kind of like a variety talent show with poets, comedians and dancers. So that's something cool this year to check out.There's also different dress up nice each week for Homegrown, so that's kind of fun to see what everyone wears. Tonight is Eccentric Art Teacher & Gym Coach Night. Friday is Leather & Lace Night. Saturday is Pirates & Princesses Night. Sunday is Relaxation Sunday; they have a couple of daytime shows on Sunday because that's the last day of the festival.— Emily LeeNative stories on screenActor Silvestrey P'orantes of Minneapolis highly recommends checking out “Framed Differently,” an evening of four short films by local Native filmmakers with a Q&A to follow. Hosted by Sequoia Hauck, the event is Saturday, May 3 from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Public Functionary's Main Gallery 144 in Minneapolis. The films are Ajuawak Kapashesit's “The Comedian,” Rosy Simas's “yödoishëndahgwa'geh (a place to rest),” Oogie Push's “Hunting Morels: Mushroom Secrets” and Moira Villiard's animated film “Love Lessons in a Time of Settler Colonialism.”Silvestrey says: [They're] all doing different films about Indigenous perspective outside of just the title of being Indigenous. There's a lot of pressure sometimes to fit into the stereotype of like, well, we got to talk about language and reclamation and what have you. But sometimes, you know, we just want to talk about what we want to talk about. We're really emphasizing that we are artists who have things to say outside of just who we are.— Silvestrey P'orantesYouth strings take the spotlight in MarshallSt. Paul musician Mary Adamek wants people to know about a musical opportunity in Marshall, Minn., this Saturday. Southwest Minnesota StringFest invites string players aged 13–18 to rehearse and perform alongside professional musicians on Saturday, May 3.

Job was tested by Satan through devastating loss and personal affliction. The turning point comes when Job's wife, overwhelmed by despair, suggests he curse God and die, reflecting the deepest challenges of faith and emotional strain within relationships. Job's trials warn us of the impact of one's emotions can lead to a cycle of negativity. We should speak life and encourage one another in our relationships, and to not let their emotions control us, as marriage is a sacred covenant designed to foster growth in Jesus, and in each other.

The two authors, Rebecca Vilkomerson and Rabbi Alissa Wise, were both staff leaders of Jewish Voice for Peace from 2010 to 2020. In the book, they ask what the politics of solidarity look like in practice, and how left-wing organizations can grow—in numbers and power—while remaining accountable to the broader movements of which they are a part. Rebecca and Alissa were in Vancouver on January 26. We bring you excerpts from that evening.

Could allocating more time to faith and family transform your life? Join me, Jesse Cope, as I unpack the profound impact of intentionally prioritizing personal growth, meaningful relationships, and spirituality over the constant lure of passive media consumption. This episode of the American Soul Podcast delves into the heart of what truly enriches our character—faith in Jesus Christ, the unity it brings, and the blessings it bestows on our relationships. Through heartfelt discussions, we explore the teachings of Galatians Chapter 3 and the story of Abraham, emphasizing that faith, not the law, offers the path to righteousness and unity among believers. We wrap up by reflecting on the intertwining themes of love, faith, and divine guidance in our lives, drawing inspiration from historical figures like Thomas Jefferson. The episode serves as a gentle reminder of the importance of nurturing our closest bonds, particularly with our spouses, and seeking God's wisdom in our day-to-day lives. As we extend blessings to families, marriages, and nations worldwide, we invite you to reconnect with these timeless principles and reflect on their role in your own journey.

Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back, to yet another episode, in another awesome season!!! Thank you for pulling back up on us! We are back, and making it happen, just for you all, and a little bit for us. We greatly appreciate your presence, and want to thank you for letting us borrow a little bit of your time, letting us into a little bit of your space, and just letting us come in and do what we do, and that's just talk! Hopefully we share something, drop a dyme or two that you can pick up, save in your piggy bank of life, and cash it in when the time is right, and it makes sense in your situation! Today's famous Question of the Week was a lighter one, more of the reminiscing type. What's TV show or series that you think ended too soon? This is where we just list our favorites, but also some that had you locked in, on the edge of your seat, waiting and anticipating, and then boom, it was gone! Some ended, and we understood why and how, but then there are those that ended fairly abruptly, and we wondered whatever happened to that character, or this one? So, let us know which ones do you think ended too soon? Let's talk about it! Today's episode is something I'm sure we all can add a story to, but we asked the question what's the hardest lesson the opposite sex taught you? Doesn't have to be about love either. It can be about finances, about managing time, about loving yourself first, but we want to hear what you learned. If you decide to share the back story on how it got to that point, that would be awesome as well. I think we all can relate here, and looking back, we can laugh about it, hopefully, even if it's just a little bit. So let's hear it. Drop those dymes in the comments. Let's talk about it! As the Christmas holiday approaches, we would like to wish you a Happy Holidays!!! You all are one of the best

Keith opens with a hot take on Trump's America, while Mike finds unexpected humor in Elon Musk's dreams of Mars. Ally is unimpressed, predicting four years of “dumb news” with a cognitive load she'd rather skip. It's politics, sex, tech, and a sprinkle of dark comedy. As the conversation shifts, we hit a deep dive into relationships and breakups. Keith brings a Reddit post on moving on from an ex, sparking a fiery debate. Mike likens it to Mein Kampf, and somehow Hitler's love life becomes a point of speculation. The trio pokes fun, but there's a hint of truth in their banter about love, betrayal, and the bitter art of letting go. Then, it's onto the porn rabbit hole. Keith shares his paid-for porn adventures and the disturbing allure of AI-generated nudity. Mike gets philosophical, asking if infinite access to virtual sex will change the world – or just take men out of it. Ally, as ever, has a bone to pick, wondering if this shift could finally tip the scales in favor of women running society. It's porn, politics, and the future of humanity in one messy, strangely insightful package. Finally, they wonder: what will happen when everyone can make movies from scripts with a click? Mike envisions a world where we can create our own fantasies, from romantic sagas to Hollywood-level action. But Keith isn't so sure – he predicts that AI-driven entertainment will soon overshadow everything we know. Twitter: @ymmvpod Facebook: ymmvpod Email: ymmvpod@gmail.com
WHAT A WEEK, AMIRITE?!?!? It's been seven days since we found out the less-than-desirable results of the 2024 presidential election, and it's feeling like we could all use a candid but encouraging conversation about where things stand. But not before we hear a 1987 lesbian meet-cute! Mary Ellen Capek (who will be eighty-three next month) is a writer, an activist, and a self-described "relapsed Methodist." Her first book of poetry ("Love Lessons: Poems 1973-2023") comes out this Friday, and she's been on an impressive number of boards and committees. Mary Ellen's story includes compulsory heterosexuality, marriage and (incredibly amicable!) divorce, being the "token heterosexual" in lesbian spaces, and a ten-day women's hiking trip that forever changed her life. An expert in organizing and community building, she discusses the importance of keeping our energy up in dark times ("I'm not gonna let that sonofabitch steal my joy!"), and shares practical ways to avoid burnout. It's a funny, tender, and inspiring conversation with someone who has been doing the work her entire life.Like Mary Ellen says, she is easily reachable! Find her on Facebook at facebook.com/mecapek and check out her website, maryellencapek.com (the piece she wrote the morning we recorded is posted at https://maryellencapek.com/some-post-election-thoughts/). Last but not least: find "Love Lessons" online and in bookstores starting November 15th!

Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you.

Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy.

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image.
