What does it mean to say that “In the beginning was the Word” … and why does it still matter? That's what's being asked in this episode of Perspectives FUMCSD Pastors Podcast. In this first conversation of a five-part series on the Gospel of John, Revs. Trudy and Hannah explore John 1:1 and the theme “The Eternal Now – God Beyond Time.” Together, they unpack John’s poetic and often confusing language to discover a radical idea at the heart of the Gospel: Eternity doesn’t pull us out of the world; God brings eternity into it. Drawing from Jewish wisdom traditions, Greek philosophy, and early Christian theology, this progressive Christian Bible study from First United Methodist Church of San Diego invites listeners to see the Gospel of John not as rigid dogma, but as a story of surprise, disruption, and divine presence in unexpected places. You’ll hear reflections on: What “the Word” (Logos) meant across Jewish, Greek, and early Christian cultures Why John begins with creation instead of Jesus’ birth Eternity as a present reality … not just a future promise Rethinking Jesus’ “I Am” statements beyond exclusion and certainty God’s ongoing work of creation within and around our life – even in chaos, doubt, and struggle Continue the conversation with these reflection questions: What does eternity mean to you? How does eternity change your understanding of today, tomorrow or the future? How do you understand Jesus as being the Word of God, and what does it has to do with us?

In this episode of the DecaMillionaire Decoded podcast, host Justin Goodbread addresses a common fear among business owners: financial transparency with their team. Justin explores why many entrepreneurs are afraid that sharing top-line revenue will lead to employees demanding more money or time off. He argues that if employees resent a company's success, the root issue is an immature culture, not transparency. Learn more about Relentless Value Coaching: https://www.justingoodbread.com/coaching/

PRE-ORDER MY NEW BOOK (OUT MAY 5, 2026)!!! — https://bit.ly/43BquPd This week I'm talking about the grading spiral that made me question my entire career, the wild field-trip confessions my five-year-old brought home, and the absolute unhinged energy that middle schoolers bring into any art room with a blank sheet of paper. And the voice memos? Oh, they're next-level. One features a crime scene so disgusting I almost logged off my own podcast. The other… well, let's just say a substitute made a choice that will go down in school-wide legend, and not in a good way. Plus, I'm climbing up on a hill I fully expect to die on, and it involves legal loopholes, teenagers, and why this country needs to get its act together. Takeaways: The surprisingly delicious St. Louis food that healed my pre-show stomach disaster. How a grading pile-up turned into a full-on identity crisis. Why elementary crushes feel like Shakespearean monologues now. The most unhinged classroom vandalism case I've ever heard—and the wild “investigation” that followed. The legal hill I did not expect to die on this week… and why I'm standing on it anyway. — Teachers' night out? Yes, please!

In this episode of FACTS, Stephen Boyce and Pat May take a deep dive into one of the most complicated conversations happening in the Church today: the relationship between antisemitism, anti-Zionism, and dispensationalism.Christians often talk about Israel, prophecy, and end-times events, but the terms are rarely defined, and the theology behind them is frequently misunderstood. In this episode, Stephen Boyce unpacks the history, theology, and modern implications of these ideas—showing how confusion in these areas leads to real harm in both the Church and the Jewish community.We begin by clearly defining antisemitism and anti-Zionism and exploring where legitimate political critique ends and ethnic or religious hostility begins. From there, we examine how dispensational theology reshaped the American evangelical view of Israel, creating a system that divides God's people, misreads prophecy, and misunderstands the purpose of Ezekiel's temple.Along the way, we address: • Why antisemitism still appears in Christian spaces • How anti-Zionism can overlap with centuries-old prejudices • Why dispensationalism produces confusion about Israel and the Church • Why Ezekiel's temple cannot be understood as a literal future building • How Christians can love the Jewish people without adopting end-times sensationalism • Why historic Christianity offers a better, more coherent approach to IsraelIf you'd like to donate to our ministry or be a monthly partner that receives newsletters and one on one discussions with Dr. Boyce, here's a link: https://give.tithe.ly/?formId=6381a2ee-b82f-42a7-809e-6b733cec05a7

In this episode I welcome back Dr. James McGrath. We talk about his contribution to the book Judeophobia and the New Testament, where he discusses contemporary negative attitudes towards Jews and Judaism. We discuss the problem of Judeophobia, how Jews are often marginalized in Christian theology, and how the Jewish Jesus movement lead to rampant anti-Judaism during the Middle Ages. McGrath explains the supposed division between the Old and New Testaments, how scholarship has clarified the relationship between Christianity and Judaism, how to better understand the New Testament in its Jewish context, and, very importantly, how debates about the modern state of Israel have contributed to Judeophobia. We also talk about the social problems which inevitably result from unclear thinking about Judaism and how we can avoid them.

This week I'm shattering preconceived notions that Indigenous Americans north of Mexico didn't build cities. That they organized, instead, into only small, nomadic villages. Because, for around 800 years there was a great city, the largest pre-Colombian city north of Mexico, a city that, if you were to have visited in the year 1200, is theorized to have been larger than both London and Paris at that same time. In fact, it held the record for largest city in the now United States for almost 700 years from around 1100 until Philadelphia broke the record in the 1780s. I'm talking about the city of Cahokia which sprawled along the Mississippi River in southern Illinois, a testament to the true scale, potential, and abilities of Indigenous Americans in what is now the United States.

PREVIEW. Nuclear Testing Remarks and NNSA Budget Cuts. Jeff McCausland discusses the President's ambiguous remarks on nuclear testing, noting the President and Secretary of Defense seem to misunderstand nuclear strategy. Immediate warhead testing is impossible because the responsible agency, NNSA, lacks staff due to budget cuts. A return to testing would ultimately benefit adversaries expanding their arsenal, like Russia and China. 1940 Retry

Longtime sex-advice columnist and author Dan Savage shares how he thinks about monogamy, marriage, infidelity, and repair. We explore how sex and relationships get conflated. We get into identities, orientations, preferences, language, and how we’re raising kids today. Also, Savage’s take on heteropessimism, what makes a man an attractive partner, and a word he introduced me to: tolyamory, meaning tolerating your lover’s BS. There’s so much to unpack in here, and to keep thinking about. For the show notes, head to my Substack.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An Northern Illinois University physics educator knows that all it takes for kids to get excited about science is their natural curiosity about the world around them.“I've compared it to to listening to a song in a language you don't understand. You can you can hear the melody. You can appreciate the beauty. But if you learn that language, then all of a sudden you know what the song is about. You understand the subtext. So, we can appreciate the world around us, just like that song, but it's written in the language of math and science."It's here on a new Teachers' Lounge!
Invisible Distortions: Why We Misunderstand Each Other (and How to Stop) Have you ever walked away from a conversation thinking, “How did that go so wrong?” You were clear. They were clear. And yet somehow, you both walked away feeling misunderstood, hurt, or even resentful. Erin and Evan call these hidden forces “distortions.” They're like funhouse mirrors in our relationships—subtle patterns, beliefs, or unspoken feelings that bend what we say and hear. Left unchecked, distortions quietly erode connection, fuel resentment, and create conflict that seems impossible to solve. In this episode of Richer Soul, we explore how to see distortions, name them, and clear them—so that relationships (at home, in business, and even with money) flow with more peace and ease.

I'm excited to kick off Season 3 of the Play Therapy Parenting Podcast! This series is called Parent Companion for Play Therapy, and it's designed both for parents whose children are in play therapy and for any parent who wants to better understand their kids. Whether you're navigating the therapy process or simply looking for a new perspective at home, these episodes will give you clarity, confidence, and practical ways to connect with your child. In this first episode, I introduce the series and dive into one of the most important concepts: Adulthood Bias. This happens when we interpret children's behavior through our adult lens of logic, reasoning, and expectations. But kids don't process the world the way we do — they act and react from feelings, not logic. I share real-life examples of how Adulthood Bias shows up and explain how shifting our mindset helps us respond with curiosity and connection instead of frustration. This mindset shift is the foundation for everything else we'll cover this season.

Love isn't just desire, provision, or possession—yet too often that's what men are taught to believe. In this episode, we dive into 5 Things Men Don't Understand About Love, drawing from the wisdom of bell hooks, James Baldwin, and John Makransky.We explore why love requires vulnerability, accountability, and daily practice—and why true love is always liberation, not control. This isn't about shaming men, but about breaking free from harmful myths and discovering what real, connected love can look like.✨ What you'll hear in this episode: • The difference between desire, possession, and love • Why vulnerability is the heart of intimacy • How love is a daily practice, not just a feeling • Why accountability matters in relationships • How love frees us rather than controls us
Dazed, bruised and confused. That's how leaders of global automakers and suppliers operating in China feel these days. Since 2020, they have seen their once formidable China sales and profit machines vanish. As a group global automakers will sell 8 million fewer vehicles in China this year than they did in 2020. Eight million! People at headquarters are asking some tough questions: Where did things go wrong? And could it have been avoided? This is where a person with years of first-hand experience in China becomes valuable. Meet Mitch Presnick, a visiting fellow at Harvard and before that, the founder of the Super 8 Motel franchise in China. Mitch knows China and gives it to us straight. The Chinese are not boy scouts, he reminds us. It's necessary to negotiate super hard, and to keep negotiating even when you think the job is done. Sounds exhausting, right? Well, that's the bar for survival in China – for Chinese people just as much as for foreigners. In today's conversation, Mitch lets us know what's required to compete and recommend tools that will serve us well not only in China but in dealing with Chinese businesses as they go global.

In this open and thoughtful conversation, David Marshall is joined by Barrie Gellis—long-time student of The Seth Material and one of the few people to have attended Jane Roberts' original ESP classes. Together, they explore some of the most common misunderstandings surrounding Seth's teachings and reflect on the deeper implications for those genuinely working with the material. Explore David's new spiritual community here: https://www.skool.com/modernmystic-6035/about Links to Barrie's books here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Barrie-Gellis/author/B002BM45K6 This is not a teaching or a lecture, but a shared inquiry into the subtle and sometimes misinterpreted layers of one of the most influential channeled works of the 20th century. Key topics covered include: 0:00 • Misconceptions about Framework 1 and Framework 2 (4:40): Gellis explains that many people overemphasize F2 (non-physical reality) and dismiss F1 (physical reality) as an illusion. He stresses that both are real and serve crucial purposes. 05:18 • The Purpose of Linear Time (5:18): Linear time in physical reality provides a necessary "pause to reflect," which is essential for learning and spiritual evolution, particularly in understanding "violations of natural guilt" (8:08). 08:08 • Violations of Natural Guilt (8:08): This concept refers to violating one's own nature of love, compassion, and goodness, which occurs when harming others. Natural guilt acts as an inner trigger to prevent repeating harmful acts. 10.08 • The Importance of Helping Others (10:08): Gellis emphasizes that while creating one's own reality, it's crucial to include helping and not harming others. He clarifies that dismissing others' suffering by saying "they created their reality" is a misunderstanding of Seth's teachings (11:06). 18:13 • The Concept of "Victims" (18:33): Gellis clarifies that while on a deeper level there are no victims (as individuals subconsciously choose their reality), the term "victim" is valid in physical reality to describe someone who experiences harm they didn't consciously choose or want. 28:03 • Judging Reality vs. Judging People (28:03): The discussion highlights that assessing one's reality and judging situations is a necessary part of growth, but this differs from judging individuals as inherently bad or unworthy. 40:08 • Changing Beliefs (40:08): Gellis shares his personal experience of changing the belief that "people are good" and the importance of recognizing that good is stronger than evil. He suggests exploring one's beliefs, especially those related to personal struggles, through stream of consciousness writing to identify and change them (20:49). 1:10:41. • Love as the Foundation of Reality (1:10:41): Both David Marshall and Barrie Gellis agree that love is a fundamental condition and the basis for all existence, holding reality together. 1.13:55 • Kindness as a Superpower (1:13:55): Gellis describes kindness as a revolutionary power that is often underrated and goes beyond mere behavior.
Why do people seem to get sick when (or just after) they fly? Many believe it is the recirculated air on the plane that everyone is breathing. That is probably not the reason. This episode starts by explaining what the real culprit is and how to protect yourself. https://www.rd.com/article/recirculated-air-on-airplanes/ It is amazing how often we miscommunicate with other people. It happens when we speak, or send a text or email, on the phone – it happens all the time. The trouble is that what we think we are saying is not necessarily what people are hearing. And that causes problems. Here to explain how this typically happens and how to prevent miscommunication is Roger Kreuz, an associate dean of the College of Arts & Sciences at the University of Memphis and a professor in the university's psychology department. He is also author of the book Failure to Communicate: Why We Misunderstand What We Hear, Read, and See (https://amzn.to/44lnHaE) You probably don't think much about the chemicals in your clothes, but they are there. They are applied to clothes to make them anti-wrinkle, anti-odor, stain resistant and a bunch of other reasons. The problem is that those chemicals aren't all that effective and they can be harmful. Joining me to explain why you haven't heard much about this and why you need to know it is Alden Wicker. She is an award-winning journalist and author of the book To Dye For How Toxic Fashion is Making us Sick (https://amzn.to/3pt4Vzj). Food cravings are a real thing. And it's not just pregnant women who get them. One interesting way to curb cravings is with pickles.

The "conventional wisdom" says gun violence is usually the act of calculated criminals or people acting out of desperate economic circumstances. But economist Jens Ludwig believes the conventional wisdom is wrong. Today on the show, he explains why he believes many of us fundamentally misunderstand the problem of gun violence and how behavioral economics reveals some potential solutions. Jens's new book detailing his research into gun violence is called "Unforgiving Places: The Unexpected Origins of American Gun Violence".Related episodes:Can credit card codes help address gun violence?

Summary: In this conversation, Michael Easley and Dr. Adam Rasmussen discuss the alarming findings of a recent Barna study on the understanding of the Trinity among Americans, particularly within the Christian community. They explore the implications of these findings, the importance of teaching the doctrine of the Trinity, and the cultural influences that shape contemporary beliefs. The discussion emphasizes the need for a return to biblical literacy and the transformative power of understanding the Trinity in the life of believers. Ultimately, they offer hope for the future by encouraging a deeper engagement with scripture and a commitment to living out biblical principles in everyday life. TAKEAWAYS Only 11% of adults in America believe in the Trinity. 16% of self-identified church-going Christians embrace the Trinity. There is a dearth of teaching on the Trinity in local churches. Cultural influences are shaping the spiritual views of Americans. Many Christians are turning to secular figures for theological guidance. God loves to change culture through the church. The answer to societal ills is a return to God. We must experience God's love to effectively share it with others. ABOUT DR. ADAM RASMUSSEN Dr. Adam Rasmussen is a Fellow at the Cultural Research Center and the Dean of the College of Arts & Humanities at Arizona Christian University. He is a magna cum laude graduate of Northwestern College, where he earned a BA in history.

Okay, so on this episode of The Patrick Madrid Show, we get a look into the virtue of hope. A caller named Matt from Columbus, NJ, kicks things off by saying that a lot of Catholics don’t really get what hope actually is. Honestly, he’s onto something. What’s Hope, Really? Most people think of hope like: I hope the weather’s nice tomorrow, or I hope my team wins. But biblical, theological hope is different. The Catechism (CCC 1817) lays it out: Hope is the virtue by which we desire heaven, trusting not in ourselves, but in God’s promises and His grace to get us there. Basically, it’s not a shaky, fingers-crossed kind of thing; it’s a confident expectation in God’s faithfulness. So… Can Catholics Be Sure They’re Going to Heaven? Matt brings up a great point here. He adds that if you ask a Catholic, “Are you going to heaven?” they’ll respond with, “Uh… I hope so?”, but with a tone of doubt. That’s a problem. Because hope isn’t uncertainty; it’s trust. Patrick brings in St. Paul as Exhibit A. Paul talks about winning the race and fighting the good fight; he expects heaven, but he also knows he has to persevere to the end. We don’t “earn” salvation (we need grace!), but we cooperate with it. So, the Catholic answer isn’t “I know I’m going to heaven, no doubt” (we’re not into that Once Saved, Always Saved mindset), but it’s also not “I have no idea”. Instead, it’s: -I trust in God’s promises -I know He’ll give me the grace to get there -But I also know I have free will and need to stay faithful Hope vs. Despair & Presumption Patrick also covers the two big dangers that wreck hope: Despair: Thinking, I’m too far gone, I’ll never be saved. That’s a lie; God’s mercy is bigger than any sin. Never stop hoping! Presumption: Thinking, I don’t need to do anything, I’m automatically saved. This is also wrong; Jesus literally tells us to persevere to the end (Matt 24:13). Hope Is Non-Negotiable. Patrick ties it all together with St. Thomas Aquinas, who says hope is necessary for salvation. You have to desire heaven and expect God’s help. No hope? No heaven. Moral of the story: Hope is trust in God’s love and promises. So next time someone asks if you’re going to heaven, don’t say “I don’t know” ... say, “I trust in God to get me there.” Want to level up your hope? Pray for the grace of perseverance, dive into Scripture, and never stop trusting in God’s goodness!
“Insist on doing everything through ‘channels.' Never permit short-cuts to be taken in order to expedite decisions.”“Make ‘speeches.' Talk as frequently as possible and at great length. Illustrate your ‘points' by long anecdotes and accounts of personal experiences. Never hesitate to make a few appropriate ‘patriotic' comments.”“Bring up irrelevant issues as frequently as possible.”“Haggle over precise wordings of communications, minutes, resolutions.”“‘Misunderstand' orders. Ask endless questions or engage in long correspondence about such orders. Quibble over them when you can.”“In making work assignments, always sign out the unimportant jobs first. See that the important jobs are assigned to inefficient workers of poor machines.”“To lower morale and with it, production, be pleasant to inefficient workers; give them undeserved promotions. Discriminate against efficient workers; complain unjustly about their work.”“Hold conferences when there is more critical work to be done.”“Multiply paperwork in plausible ways.” “Make mistakes in quantities of material when you are copying orders. Confuse similar names. Use wrong addresses.”“Work slowly.

Or pretend that you are particularly anxious to do your work, and pester the foreman with unnecessary questions.”“Snarl up administration in every possible way.
