The link is in the show notes. Okay.. our top story this week: XX Member of the American Diabetes Association… are now boycotting it. The notice of the boycott condemns leadership's actions after five researchers were removed by police from its annual meeting in June. Significantly, The editors of ADA's flagship journal, Diabetes Care, have joined on in support of the boycott. "Manuscripts submitted will not be handled until the boycott is over," said Steven Kahn, MBChB, the journal's editor in chief and one of the five researchers ejected from the meeting in New Orleans, in a LinkedIn post on Thursday. Kahn told MedPage Today that "the journal boycott is like establishing a picket line. The boycott already has hundreds of signatures of people who have pledged to suspend all ADA-related activities, including: Planning or attending any meetings led by ADA leadership or the board, including the 2027 ADA Scientific Sessions Participating in board-led activities regarding the investigation of the meeting's events, or the report generated by the "so-called 'independent' committee" Engaging in all other ADA operations, including presentations, fundraisers, grant reviews, manuscript reviews, journal management, manuscript submissions, and position statements The boycott will remain active until the ADA board of directors permits an independent formal review of the organization's structure and function to ensure it "properly represent[s] its professional membership." If demands are not met, signees plan to align with existing or newly formed medical societies. https://www.medpagetoday.com/endocrinology/diabetes/122977 https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd4h548X9qXgkVREQ71k2gDHiU8WFAFF78wTnmS20_ntwUM0w/viewform XX A new patch pump is coming to the US.. Beta Bionics, Inc. announces FDA clearance of Mint, the Company's patch pump featuring a transformative reusable and disposable architecture that does not require recharging, integrates with industry-leading continuous glucose monitors (CGM) and enables smartphone control for iOS and Android users. The Company expects to initiate the full commercial launch of Mint in the United States in the first quarter of 2027 Mint is expected to launch exclusively through the pharmacy channel. Also announced, that Eversense 365 is now compatible with Beta Bionics Senseonics expects development of the Eversense 365-iLet integration to be completed during the fourth quarter of 2026. Commercial launch is planned following completion of integration activities in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to required testing, validation activities and applicable regulatory requirements. No word yet on timing for Eversense with Mint. https://www.manilatimes.net/2026/09/14/tmt-newswire/globenewswire/beta-bionics-announces-fda-clearance-of-mint-the-companys-transformative-patch-pump-and-unveils-3d-intelligence-as-its-next-generation-insulin-dosing-algorithm/2424457 XX Seven years after Johns Hopkins researchers discovered a previously unknown immune cell called the "X cell," they're now exploring whether that discovery could lead to a new treatment for type 1 diabetes. In preclinical studies, researchers developed an antibody that was able to target and eliminate specific immune cells responsible for attacking the pancreas's insulin-producing beta cells, while leaving the rest of the immune system intact. The researchers say the approach is especially promising because it could potentially reverse the autoimmune process soon after a type 1 diabetes diagnosis, rather than simply managing blood sugar. The work is still in the early stages and has not yet been tested in people; additional laboratory and preclinical studies are needed before human clinical trials can begin. sclerosis.https://hub.jhu.edu/2026/09/09/federal-funds-support-type-1-diabetes-treatment/ XX A new international consensus recommends routine screening for type 1 diabetes in the general population, offering the first framework for how healthcare providers could put widespread screening into practice. The guidance recommends screening children between ages 2 and 4, with children who test negative screened again at ages 6–8 and 10–15. Screening uses a blood test to look for islet autoantibodies, which can signal that the immune system is attacking insulin-producing cells years before symptoms appear or insulin is needed. Finding type 1 diabetes early can greatly reduce the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis, or DKA, at diagnosis and may give people access to treatments such as teplizumab that can delay progression to clinical T1D. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/breakthrough-t1d-convened-paper-outlines-first-international-consensus-guidance-on-general-population-screening-for-early-stage-type-1-diabetes-302875788.html   XX Eating only between noon and 8 p.m. improved blood sugar control in a small study of adults with Type 1 diabetes and obesity, while avoiding an increase in serious complications. The promising findings offer the first evidence that time restricted eating could become another tool for managing the condition. For the study, Varady recruited adults with Type 1 diabetes who were also classified as obese After six months, the time-restricted eating group showed better blood sugar results than the calorie-reduction group. HbA1c, a blood test that reflects average blood sugar over the previous several months, fell by about 0.5% on average in the time-restricted group.   Couple of things here – very small study, only 32 people in total, who were then randomly placed in three groups with different styles of eating. Also, the lead researcher says this is the first study of it's kind for type 1 – which is obviously not true – you can do a quick google search or listen to past episodes of this show.. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/09/260909231740.htm XX A large Danish study found that COVID-19 infection was associated with a slightly lower, rather than higher, risk of subsequently developing type 1 diabetes in people under age 30. Researchers studied more than 2,100 people diagnosed with T1D and found an overall 16% lower risk following a documented COVID infection, with the strongest association—a 42% reduction—seen 31 to 180 days after infection. The reduced risk appeared primarily among people who had not been vaccinated against COVID-19, although researchers cautioned that the vaccination findings were less certain. Importantly, this was an observational study, so it cannot show that COVID infection actually protects against type 1 diabetes or explain what caused the association. Researchers say the findings conflict with some earlier studies and should be investigated in other countries and populations. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20260908/COVID-19-linked-to-lower-subsequent-risk-of-type-1-diabetes.aspx   XX   Semaglutide, a medication widely used for type 2 diabetes and weight loss, may also provide an unexpected benefit for people with asthma. New research presented at the European Respiratory Society (ERS) Congress in Barcelona, Spain, found that semaglutide use was associated with a reduction in asthma attacks of nearly 40%.   The study was led by Professor Chloe Bloom, Clinical Associate Professor in Respiratory Epidemiology at the National Heart & Lung Institute, Imperial College London, UK, and presented by Dr. Bohee Lee.       Exploring GLP 1 Drugs and Lung Health   Dr. Bloom said: "GLP-1 receptor agonists are widely used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity. Previous research suggests that they may have anti-inflammatory effects and may improve lung-related outcomes. However, asthma and COPD outcomes have not been included as outcomes in GLP-1 drug trials.   "We wanted to use real-world health records to investigate whether people with asthma or COPD who started GLP-1 receptor agonists had fewer acute respiratory attacks."   To investigate that question, the researchers analyzed electronic medical records from the UK. They carried out four parallel studies, each involving between 20,000 and 22,000 people who had started treatment with either a GLP-1 medication or a different type of diabetes drug known as a sulfonylurea.   The results suggested that people with airway diseases such as asthma and COPD who received GLP-1 therapies experienced fewer asthma attacks and COPD flare-ups than comparable patients who were prescribed other diabetes medications.   Semaglutide Showed the Strongest Effect   Among the GLP-1 drugs examined, semaglutide appeared to stand out, particularly for people with asthma.   Bloom explains: "The effect was strongest with semaglutide, especially in people with asthma, where use of semaglutide appears to be associated with nearly a 40% reduction in asthma attacks. Semaglutide also led to a 20% reduction in COPD flare-ups."   The findings suggest that people who already qualify for GLP-1 receptor agonists because they have obesity or type 2 diabetes could potentially receive an additional benefit for their respiratory health.   However, Bloom emphasized that the results are not enough to recommend these medications specifically as treatments for asthma or COPD.   She explains: "The findings from this study are encouraging, but they should not change treatment decisions on their own. People with asthma or COPD should not start GLP-1 receptor agonists specifically for their lung condition outside current prescribing guidance. While the findings suggest that some people taking GLP-1 receptor agonists may experience fewer respiratory attacks, this needs confirmation in clinical trials." https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/09/260909005155.htm XX XX A large study suggests women with endometriosis may have a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Researchers analyzed health records from nearly 3 million women in Utah and found those diagnosed with endometriosis were 46% more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than those without the condition. The association was strongest among women who had not yet reached menopause and those without obesity, a group typically considered at lower risk for type 2 diabetes. Certain forms of endometriosis, including those found outside the pelvic area, were associated with more than twice the risk. Researchers say more study is needed, but the findings suggest endometriosis may have health effects beyond the reproductive system and could eventually help identify women who may benefit from earlier diabetes screening. https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/endometriosis-may-increase-type-2-diabetes-risk   XX MiniMed files FDA submission for it's first patch pump, with a planned launch next summer. To be called MiniMed fit, it would have a 300-unit insulin reservoir and would accommodate up to seven days of wear time. MiniMed also completed enrollment of a pivotal trial for a fully closed loop algorithm, which would calculate the amount of insulin a person needs throughout the day, even if they don't announce meals or count carbohydrates. Interestingly, on an investor call, the CEO acknowledged that CGMs have been their – quote – Achilles' heel for a very long time" and that their newest sensor has helped drive insulin pump growth. https://www.medtechdive.com/news/minimed-submits-new-patch-pump-for-fda-clearance/829313/ XX A new study based on national health registers in Denmark suggests starting statin treatment after a type 2 diabetes diagnosis could lower the risk of dementia, and it seems that the sooner patients did, the better. The research, published in The Lancet Regional Health, is an observational study, meaning it can find statistically relevant patterns at the population level, but doesn't necessarily explain what caused those patterns. The results, however, were interesting enough that the researchers, led by medical doctor Tummas Ternhamar of the Copenhagen University Hospital, are urging doctors to consider statin therapy when diagnosing type 2 diabetes patients. "Statins seem to be underused in patients with type 2 diabetes, despite their protective effects against cardiovascular disease." https://www.sciencealert.com/statins-linked-to-lower-dementia-risk-in-massive-type-2-diabetes-study XX Big sports news with type 1. Alezander Zverev wins Family was at the heart of Alexander Zverev's U.S. Open triumph on Sunday as the German saluted the members of his inner circle and paid a heartfelt tribute to his mother for refusing to let diabetes define his future. The ​top seed beat American Ben Shelton 6-3 7-6(2) 5-7 6-2 at Flushing Meadows to finish a spectacular year at ‌the Grand Slams in which he proved his doubters wrong by going from perennial nearly man to two-time major champion. Shortly after his victory, Zverev reserved special praise for his mother Irina, a former professional tennis player, and credited her with ensuring type 1 diabetes never limited his ambitions in life. "When your 4-year-old son is diagnosed with diabetes and doctors in the office ​tell you that life and sports will be very limited for that child, it takes a very strong mother to ​say 'my son will be whatever he wants to be'," Zverev said. "'If he wants to be a tennis player, ⁠he'll be a tennis player. If he wants to do something else, he'll do something else, but this illness will not define us'. https://www.reuters.com/sports/tennis/zverev-hails-mothers-belief-after-us-open-triumph-2026-09-13/ XX Also, shout out to Garrett Mitchell (Center field  Milwaukee Brewers) lives with Type 1 Diabetes and hit a grand slam immediately after having a failed insulin pump site. He was diagnosed with T1D at the age of 9. And I have a T1d mom friend who's known him since he was a kid. Just great to see athletes talking about failed insulin sets like they're just part of everyday life.. because they are. Btw it was the first grand slam for the brewers all year. XX The new Netflix movie The Runner is getting a bit of a side eye from some in the diabetes community… the Gal Gadot thriller features a child with type 1 but as usual, there are some weird inaccuracies. Ginger Vieria from Diabetes nerd has a great vide on this – I'll link it up: but they're saying things like Insulin Dispenser instead of pump.. and some other weird stuff.. but I've heard such bad things about this movie I'm not sure it's worth watching just for this.

Over a period of 30 years, Rav Yosef Karo wrote of his encounters with a divine messenger,  an angel which identified itself as the living essence of the Mishna. The most public manifestation took place on an extraordinary night of Shavuos in Salonika in 1533.  19th-century critics dismissed the mystical journal as a complete fabrication, but ground-breaking research and archaeological evidence have vindicated its authenticity.     The personal side of his halachic decision making is clearly evident throughout his numerous responsa, whereas the Printing Press allowed his Shulchan Aruch to become available across the Jewish world, despite various omissions - when publishers cut introductions to save space !   Timestamps: 00:00 – Printing omissions and errors in early Jewish texts 00:32 – Introduction to History for the Curious 01:12 – Episode dedication and sponsorship 01:40 – Return from Radin and introduction to Part 2 02:33 – Pronouncing Rabbi Yosef Karo's name and the episode's main topics 03:07 – The Maggid Mesharim: Rabbi Yosef Karo's private spiritual diary 03:37 – What is a Maggid? 05:23 – How Rabbi Yosef Karo's Mishnah study led to revelation 06:10 – The Maggid's guidance on Torah study and daily life 08:02 – Other rabbis associated with Maggidim and heavenly revelations 08:32 – The contents of the Maggid Mesharim 09:25 – Using the Maggid's teachings in public sermons 10:24 – Practical halachic rulings attributed to the Maggid 14:09 – Why Rabbi Yosef Karo recorded the Maggid's words 14:35 – The famous Shavuot-night revelation in Salonica 16:24 – How the group recognized the Maggid's voice 16:51 – Can heavenly revelation influence halachic decisions? 18:46 – The Maggid's authority outside practical halacha 19:30 – Chronological problems created by early editors 21:00 – Claims that the Maggid Mesharim was a forgery 24:37 – Manuscript evidence supporting the work's authenticity 26:07 – Why Rabbi Yosef Karo did not cite the Maggid in his main legal works 26:30 – Joy, fear and fasting on Rosh Hashanah 29:30 – The three major authorities behind the Shulchan Aruch 31:09 – Resolving contradictions between the Beit Yosef and Shulchan Aruch 32:11 – The first printing of the Shulchan Aruch 33:39 – Missing introductions and mistakes made by printers 34:22 – Early editions and the monthly Shulchan Aruch study cycle 36:40 – The Rema's additions to the Shulchan Aruch 38:15 – Rabbi Yosef Karo's responsum concerning decorative images 40:30 – A disputed religious image on a gold object 41:32 – Rabbi Yosef Karo's strict response and textual reasoning 43:15 – Eyewitness descriptions of Rabbi Yosef Karo and his yeshiva 44:20 – A modern controversy about truth, plagiarism and academia 46:48 – Aseret Yemei Teshuvah: confronting truth and reality 48:28 – Closing thanks, listener feedback and the next episode

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Mindy Stein, founder of Inklet Press. She is going to chat with us today about indie publishing. Mindy Stein is the founder of Inklet Press, an independent publishing studio based in White Marsh, Maryland.   Her journey began in Berlin, where she studied Illustration and Design before publishing her own books and discovering just how complicated the publishing process could be. Rather than accepting an industry that often leaves authors overwhelmed and disconnected, she created a different model—one that combines creative guidance, publishing expertise, and genuine collaboration.   Today, Mindy works directly with authors from concept to finished book, helping them navigate editing, illustration, design, production, and publishing while preserving their unique voice throughout the process.   Her passion extends beyond producing books. Through community events, creative gatherings, and educational workshops, she hopes to build a welcoming place where writers, illustrators, and readers can learn from one another and grow together.   Whether she's illustrating, publishing, roasting coffee in the studio, or hosting conversations about creativity, Mindy believes that stories bring people together—and that everyone has one worth telling.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   You can follow Author Mindy Stein Website: https://www.inkletpress.com/ FB: @Inkletpress IG: @inkletpress     Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

Bill LennanBill's experience → the 40% turnaround → the environments that shaped his thinking → the mechanism behind his leadership → communication and human performance → methodology → intellectual property → authority → AI-era leadership.About"Good morning Bill, do you have a few minutes?" - the CTO asked me with a very serious look on his face. We walked into his office, he shut the door behind me and asked me, "What have you done to your team?”It was 6 months into my role.The day I started, I got my laptop, paperwork and a surprising pep talk from my manager - "I'm sorry to say that we are giving you the worst performing team in the company. They've been together for almost 10 years and we've tried everything to improve their performance. Good luck". Now 6 months later, the CTO was asking an unusual question. "What do you mean?" I asked the CTO.He replied,"We gave you the worst performing team in the company. We have tried everything to make them better but failed. You show up and in six months, they are the best performing team in the company. How did you do it? Can you teach me?"I replied, "Thank you, I'm glad our work is being noticed. I don't know what to teach you, I just take really good care of my teams". He didn't like that, but honestly, I had no other answer.Later that day, I asked myself how I did it. It all started with my first experience of leadership.During college, I worked at John Dominis - the fanciest restaurant in Honolulu.My first day, a drunk group walked in, they were loud, catcalling the staff and acting like they own the place.They placed expensive orders, arguably the most expensive single order of the night. As it got unruly, my manager Don walks up and says,"Good evening everyone, your tab for tonight is being covered by the restaurant and I want you all to leave - now." He spoke calmly.It took a moment for his words to sink in. They made the threat of a bad review - Don smiled, and said "we have a lot of very happy customers and a lot of reviews. You need to leave now."That was leadership. That was taking care.That was a role model.I've been running software teams in Silicon Valley for more than 20 years and my people consistently delivered "impossible" results, they had almost zero churn, and they were very engaged.If your employees think your company is a great place to work but the performance is lagging a little bit behind, what do you feel is one point of friction?Send me a DM, share that friction with me.I'll send you back a 2-3 minute long video with the underlying vulnerability and how to end the stalemate.No bait, no switch, no call required. Just send me a DM.We found five key pillars of great team leadership - we train team leads to replicate the results that amazed my CTO.https://www.linkedin.com/in/wblennan/

Welcome to New England Legends From the Vault – FtV Episode 185 –  Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger travel to the Yale University campus in New Haven, Connecticut, to visit the enigmatic Voynich Manuscript. This 600-year-old book is full of hundreds of pages of writing and illustrations from an unknown author in an unknown language. Since its discovery in 1912, language experts and code-breakers have tried to decipher the meaning, but have failed to figure it out. More recently some Canadian software engineers applied algorithms that may have offered us the first crack in the case. But what does it say?

The Truth About Truth - Pt 2 - How did 66 ancient books, written over thousands of years, turn into the single most dangerous, world-shaping book in human history? In part two of The Truth About Truth, we trace the epic, bloody, and providential journey of how we got the Bible. From the early Hebrew scriptures and the forming of the canon to martyrs being burned at the stake for translating it into English, the Bible's survival is nothing short of miraculous. We break down the historic timeline, how ancient manuscripts compare, the difference between word-for-word and thought-for-thought translations, and how you can choose the best translation for your daily walk. Tune in to discover the undeniable history behind the Word of God—and why its survival changes everything for your faith! Subscribe for more teaching and daily encouragement!

Are you a scholar sitting on a manuscript that you think could be a book — but you have no idea where to start? In this episode of The Publishing Playbook, host Sarah Russo sits down with Laura Portwood-Stacer, founder of Manuscript Works and author of two books about academic publishing: “The Book Proposal Book” and “Make Your Manuscript Work.” Laura shares what pulled her out of academia and into editorial consulting, and why “publish or perish” no longer guarantees the payoff it once promised. She breaks down the essential elements of a strong academic book proposal, the real differences between the types of publishers out there, and why authors and editors are on the same team more often than they realize. Laura also dishes on whether academic authors actually need a literary agent, and how generative AI is reshaping trust in publishing.

Send us Fan MailIf you've ever wondered whether the Bible can actually hold up under scrutiny, we go straight at the questions people usually whisper or argue about online. We start with a bigger issue than any single verse: the way you view Scripture decides whether you treat it like authority, inspiration, background history, or something you can edit when it gets uncomfortable.We walk through Psalm 119 and the psalmist's almost shocking love for God's Word, then shift into the “can we trust the text?” conversation. We talk manuscripts, copying, and textual criticism in plain language, including why having thousands of manuscript witnesses is a strength, not a threat. The Dead Sea Scrolls come into focus too, especially the Great Isaiah Scroll, and why discoveries like that matter for Bible reliability and biblical transmission across centuries.Then we zoom out to the historical Jesus. We look at Luke's stated method of careful investigation and why non-Christian sources like Josephus still matter in the “was Jesus real?” debate. From there, we land the tension point: culture changes fast, but Scripture doesn't, and if Jesus treated the Word of God as authoritative, we can't build a faith that only works when it's popular. If you want a clearer, steadier foundation for Christian living, listen through and then tell us what challenged you most. Subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the conversation.

Welcome to The On Preaching Podcast, the podcast dedicated to helping you preach faithfully, clearly, and better. In this episode, H.B. Charles Jr. busts eleven (11) preaching "myths." The preaching "myths" are as follows: Sermons grow on trees.People won't listen to long sermons. Expository preaching is boring. Historical background determines authorial intent. Planning hinders the Holy Spirit. Informality is more effective. Manuscript preaching is dry. Interesting preaching is shallowCongregational response is sermonic success. Good talkers are good preachers. Preaching has gone out of style.For contact, resources, or information, visit hbcharlesjr.com.

The sermon addresses the trustworthiness of biblical manuscripts by examining textual transmission and variant readings. It refutes skeptical claims, such as those by Bart Ehrman, by highlighting the abundance of ancient evidence and the minor nature of textual discrepancies. The speaker explains doctrines like verbal plenary inspiration and distinguishes between different Greek text families, including the Textus Receptus and eclectic texts. While acknowledging debates over specific translations like the King James Version, the message emphasizes that no essential doctrine depends on disputed readings. Ultimately, it affirms confidence in God's faithful preservation of His Word for believers today.

Brethren, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode was written by MW Bro Carl H. Claudy, and is brought to us by WBro Michael Blum, PM – Solar Star #14, Bath ME. The history of our gentle craft extends back into the mists of time, but real, solid evidence extends back to 1390, and the origin of our oldest document, the Regius Manuscript. Here is some of that story. Enjoy, and do share this and all of these Podcast episodes with your brothers and your Lodge.

Before we can pursue the God of the Bible, we need to examine the Bible itself. How do we know that we can trust what it says? Why should we listen to its truth claims? That's what pastors Bryan, Ross and John cover in this episode. --The PursueGOD Truth podcast is the “easy button” for making disciples – whether you're looking for resources to lead a family devotional, a small group at church, or a one-on-one mentoring relationship. Join us for new episodes every Tuesday and Friday.

It has changed individual lives and shaped entire cultures. It's an ancient text that claims to have been written by God himself, and the proof of its reliability is surprisingly strong. Here are three reasons we can trust what it teaches:Historical Evidence Ancient manuscripts and archeological digs have stacked up in favor of biblical reliability. The Bible was written thousands of years ago, long before printing presses and modern technology. Manuscript fragments of the biblical text have endured wars and weather throughout the ages, and the scraps that remain represent just a fraction of the originals. Are those remnants enough to provide a reliable testimony for modern-day readers? And how can we be sure that the message hasn't been corrupted over the millennia? The good news is that the God who inspired the scriptures was also powerful enough to preserve those writings through the ages. Consider the manuscript evidence. Manuscript copies in the ancient world were painstakingly hand-written, and not all of them survived the ravages of time. Reliability of ancient writings is determined by the number of copies (or partial copies) of the work in existence. So how does the Bible stack up? See for yourself:Today we have only 49 copies of Aristotle's writings.Homer's “The Iliad” does a little better, with 643 copies in existence.The New Testament wins by a landslide, with almost 5700 Greek copies and over 19,000 copies in other languages!The New Testament clearly has more manuscript evidence than any other ancient work. But how do we know that those manuscript copies are faithful to the originals? What if human authors changed the message, intentionally or otherwise? Modern archeology helps us answer this question, thanks to the Dead Sea Scrolls. In 1947 a shepherd boy discovered some ancient scrolls hidden away in remote caves in the Middle East. This led to even more discoveries in the area, and in the end almost 1000 manuscripts were recovered. Parts of almost every book of the Old Testament were found, and some of those fragments proved to be almost 1000 years older than the oldest manuscripts known at the time. This offers a perfect test for the reliability of our modern translations. The book of Isaiah provides the most compelling example, since the Dead Sea Scrolls contained a complete copy of the prophet's writings. When compared to the Masoretic Text (the oldest copy previously known, dating back to about 800 AD), the Isaiah manuscript from the Dead Sea Scrolls was 95% identical! And the only differences were minor, often just variations in spelling.So the historical evidence stacks up in favor of the reliability of the Bible. But there's more:Textual Evidence The Bible is the most impressive writing project in the history of the world. It contains 66 books written by 40 different authors over the course of 1500 years, and yet it tells one unified story. Think about it: Moses, a Jewish slave raised in the house of a Pharaoh, wrote the first five books. John, a fisherman-turned-revolutionary, wrote the last four books. In between were books and letters written by shepherds, kings, prophets, tax collectors, doctors, and more. And the most prolific author in the New Testament was Paul – a religious Pharisee who zealously persecuted the Jesus followers before joining them. Most of these authors never met each other, and many of them were unaware of the other books and letters that would eventually be included in the Bible. Their writings spanned different cultures and languages over the course of 15 centuries, and yet the Bible amazingly reads as one story. From beginning to end it's about Jesus, and the fulfilled prophecy is the glue that holds it together. Let's take just a few examples: Of the 12 tribes of Israel, Judah was surprisingly predicted to be the one through which Jesus would come – which is exactly what happened. Genesis 49:10, Matthew 1:1-3It was prophesied that Jesus would be born in Bethlehem, and that's how it happened – even though his mother didn't even live there. Micah 5:2, Luke 2:1,4Prophets wrote with shocking accuracy about the torture and death of Jesus hundreds of years before it happened – exactly as predicted. Psalm 22, Isaiah 53It was because of these kinds of prophecies that Jesus spoke these words to the religious leaders of his day:John 5:39 You search the Scriptures because you think they give you eternal life. But the Scriptures point to me!The Bible amazingly tells one story, centered on Jesus, because it was ultimately inspired by the God of human history.Personal Evidence The Bible is ultimately about Jesus, and the changed lives of his followers is the most compelling proof of its message. Let's just take three examples from the New Testament, starting with Peter. When Jesus was on trial before his crucifixion, a servant girl noticed Peter and accused him of being a follower of Jesus. Peter denied it three times, walking away with an incredible sense of guilt and shame (Luke 22:56-59). But that's not the end of his story, because days later the resurrected Jesus sat down to breakfast with Peter and reinstated him – three times (John 21:15-19). Peter went on to be a pillar of the Christian church, eventually giving up his life for Jesus. Or consider “doubting” Thomas. He missed out on meeting the resurrected Jesus with the other disciples and expressed his doubt that they really saw the risen Christ. But soon enough he met Jesus for himself and professed his faith in him (John 20:25-28). Thomas, too, ended up dying for his faith. And then there's Paul, a self-righteous Pharisee (Philippians 3:5) whose life mission was to persecute the followers of Jesus. Then he met Jesus and joined that very group of misfit disciples. Paul made it his life's mission to spread the Good News about Jesus and he, too, died a martyr's death. There's no way to explain away these changed lives except to conclude that the message about Jesus, along with every word in the Bible, truly is inspired by God.But no amount of evidence can overcome an unbelieving attitude. At the end of the day, trusting the reliability of the Bible comes down to your willingness to believe in the God behind the Bible. Jesus made this point one day as he taught in the Temple courts:John 7:16-17 My message is not my own; it comes from God who sent me. Anyone who wants to do the will of God will know whether my teaching is from God or is merely my own.If you're unwilling to submit to God's will, your pursuit is over before it has even started. But if you are willing to come to God on his terms and take him at his word, then Jesus promises that you'll discover the truth. The teachings of Jesus, and indeed all of the teachings in the Bible, are from God, not man. And so we can trust the Bible in our pursuit of God.

Was the identification of Nero Caesar with 666 built on a convenient modern theory—or does first-century archaeology confirm the calculation?In this episode, Jay Rogers examines the Murabba'at papyrus, an ancient Aramaic commercial document that preserves the spelling Neron Kaisar, the exact form of Nero's name that produces 666 when calculated through Hebrew gematria.Rather than relying on speculation, this evidence comes directly from the world in which Revelation was written.Jay explores the archaeological discoveries from the Judean Desert, the significance of the 666 and 616 manuscript traditions, and why the spelling of Nero's imperial title matters for understanding the Beast of Revelation. He also addresses common objections and demonstrates how historical evidence strengthens the case that John's original audience would have immediately recognized the reference.If Revelation was written in the first century, the number 666 may not point to a distant future ruler at all—but to a persecuting emperor already known throughout the Roman world.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >HereHere

Some people struggle with the accuracy of the New Testament, while some don't believe it at all and treat it like another ancient mythological tale. Others like some parts of it, while disliking other parts. And some believe that it is not trustworthy due to all the supposed contradictions that we find in the ancient manuscripts. They state that since all the copies don't align word for word, they are not to be trusted at all. Do the ancient manuscripts contradict one another? Are there discrepancies between them? And do the original manuscripts still exist?

“Misbehave, make something beautiful, and try to win.” — Curtis White's motto for resistance How to say no to fascism? Curtis White, the literary thinker dubbed “the splendidly cranky utopian,” has published what he calls a “manifesto” of “resistance.” On Resistance, the 75-year-old White told me, is his last work of non-fiction. He still has worlds to invent, novels to write. Enough with the manifestos. But don't expect a program. On Resistance is more of an anti-manifesto. “That's not for me to say,” White responds when asked what, exactly, we're supposed to do to resist fascism. His resistance is cultural. It's an attitude. Borrowing from Ted Gioia's subversive history of music, White likes the idea of “psychic treason.” Its patron saints are the first dropouts, romantics like Wordsworth and Coleridge who rejected the military, clergy and family to write poetry in the countryside. But On Resistance isn't simply sixties nostalgia. White, a veteran of Berkeley and the Haight, prefers the Nietzschean imperative to forget the past and move on to the next joyful deed. So the only good manifesto is the anti-manifesto. If you want to say no to fascism, become a cranky utopian. Or at least pick up On Resistance. Five Takeaways •       Psychic Treason. White's resistance is not conventionally political — Trump appears once or twice, party politics not at all. Borrowing “psychic treason” from Ted Gioia's Music: A Subversive History, he argues that the arts are subversive by nature: sometimes formally, sometimes by allying with social movements. His founding example is the Romantics, the first dropouts — Wordsworth and Coleridge refusing the military, the clergy, and the family estate to write poetry in the countryside, declaring cultural war once the church was out of the way. The treason White wants is the one the arts commit constantly, whether or not anyone calls it politics.•       Not Nostalgia — Nietzsche. The sixties made White: Berkeley in high school, San Francisco after, and the formative discovery that his country “had lied to me” and was indifferent to whether he lived or died. But On Resistance opens with the confession “I am living in a world that no longer exists” — and refuses to make anyone else live there. One chapter is bluntly titled “Forget The Beatles.” His position is Nietzschean: move on to the next joyful deed. And the rot, he insists, didn't start with Trump but with Reagan — the decades-long withdrawal of public money from public goods, education above all.•       The Three False Resistances. The book's first half is ideology critique: our culture says resistance is unnecessary because it has already been provided — by philanthropy, virtuous corporations, and liberalism. White's exhibits: Steve Jobs Buddha-branding the counterculture to sell machines to people who thought they were subverting something; the “big green” foundations (via Mark Dowie) taking over grassroots fights and defanging them; the Gates Foundation vaccinating children against polio downwind of a polluter it was invested in. Philanthropy, he argues, self-limits to protect the source of its own wealth. Patagonia may be the quiet exception that proves the rule.•       Dropping Out, Together. White's alternative is dropping out — plural: doing something else, and doing it with other people. The organic farms and farmers markets that have created communal well-being in most American cities; FC2, the author-run press he co-founded with Ronald Sukenick, past its fiftieth anniversary; the thriving-but-invisible independent presses — Graywolf, Coffee House, Rochester's Open Letter — for which he's now plotting a group Substack. The obstacle is the money jail: everyone's struggle for money limits what it is possible to do. The goal isn't overturning the status quo. “What we need right now is companions.”•       Misbehave, Make Something Beautiful, Try to Win. White's motto since The Middle Mind — the making beautiful needn't be art; the trying to win is where misbehavior gets socialized. His lineage runs Thoreau, Whitman, William Carlos Williams, and above all John Berger: Marxist, art critic, poet, writer of lively living books. His Marxism, such as it is, is the humanist 1844 Manuscripts — alienation, not expropriation — via Marcuse's One-Dimensional Man. And the book itself is the argument: playful and fierce, a performance that moves like a novel, reinvigorating worthy old ideas rather than hunting new ones. At 75, it's his last nonfiction — written in a spirit of play, to be left in one. About the Guest Curtis White is a novelist and social critic whose books include Memories of My Father Watching TV, The Middle Mind, The Science Delusion, and Living in a World That Can't Be Fixed. Called by Elle “the most inspiringly wicked social critic of the moment,” he is co-founder, with Ronald Sukenick, of FC2, the publisher of innovative fiction run collectively by its authors, and taught English for many years at Illinois State University. His new and, he says, final work of nonfiction is On Resistance: A Manifesto (Melville House, August 11, 2026). He lives in Port Townsend, Washington. References: •       On Resistance: A Manifesto by Curtis White (Melville House, August 11, 2026). Jeffrey St. Clair: “a trail guide through our disorienting and perilous political landscape.”•       Music: A Subversive History by Ted Gioia — the source of “psychic treason” and the argument that the arts subvert by nature.•       The Middle Mind by Curtis White — where the motto was coined: misbehave, make something beautiful, and try to win.•       Jon Taplin in Rolling Stone — the recent essay asking whether the counterculture can rise again, and a recent Keen On conversation in the same key.•       One-Dimensional Man by Herbert Marcuse — the Western Marxist tradition, via the 1844 Manuscripts, that taught White to worry about alienation rather than expropriation.•       FC2 — the author-run press of innovative fiction White co-founded with Ronald Sukenick, now past its fiftieth year. About Keen On America Nobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen. In Keen On America, Andrew brings his pointed Transatlantic wit to making sense of the United States — hosting daily interviews about the history and future of this now venerable Republic. With nearly 3,000 episodes since the show launched on TechCrunch in 2010, Keen On America is the most prolific intellectual interview show in the history of podcasting. WebsiteSubstackYouTube
