In this episode of the Joyful Health Show Kasey interviews dietitian and eating disorder specialist Anna Marie Long together with her co-author of Nourished to Flourish Stephanie Brown, a personal trainer and soon to be dietitian about wellness culture's misuse of the scriptural phase “the temple of the Holy Spirit.” In This Episode We Discuss: The ways in which wellness culture negatively twists “your body is a temple” and why it matters How to recognize when scripture is being twisted to fit wellness culture's narrative What does it mean to care for our bodies as a temple without making it an idol 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 encourages us, “Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.” As you meditate on this and listen to this episode, we pray you will discover what is truly means to glorify God in your body, not allowing the temple of God which is your body to become a place where wellness culture can buy and sell influence, but a house of prayer (Matthew 21:12), and a conduit of love and joy!

The NoCo Hemp Expo wrapped up its eleventh annual event last week in Estes Park, Colorado. The overall mood was optimistic, according to attendees, but there was an undercurrent of uncertainty and angst. The industry stands at a crossroads. Is it too dramatic (or melodramatic) to call it the battle for the soul of the industry? The word hemp means different things to different people, but for over a thousand years, the English word hemp meant one thing: the crop you farm at scale to produce raw materials for industry and food — ropes, sail cloth, paper, animal feed. But now, a quarter way through the 21st Century, the definition of hemp, some would say, has expanded, leading to new opportunities, while others might say the new definition of hemp has been co-opted and pejorative. In this episode of the Lancaster Farming Industrial Hemp Podcast, host Eric Hurlock (with co-host Sophia Kurzius) gathers insights from 12 industry leaders, farmers, processors, advocates and policy experts to examine the defining issue of our time: the meaning of the word “hemp.” From Joy Beckerman's impassioned plea to protect the fiber and grain future of hemp, to Chris Fontes' nuanced defense of the cannabinoid market, this episode captures the friction and common ground shaping hemp's next chapter. And what's this we hear about executive orders coming soon that will redefine the hemp space even further? Plus, why you can't tell the story of hemp in America without talking about hemp on tribal land. Hemp is a game changer for Indigenous communities. Hempcrete, for instance, gives the people on reservations almost immediate access to addressing their housing needs in a way that was never available to them. "Hemp is achievable, it's circular, and the stories I hear from people in Indigenous communities are incredibly inspiring," said host Eric Hurlock. On this episode, you'll hear from: JJ Johnson – Founder of JJGro Kelly Burke – Director at Kifcure Joe Hickey – Co-founder of the Kentucky Hemp Growers Cooperative Ken Meyer – Founder of Complete Hemp Processing Morris Beegle – Founder of NoCo Hemp Expo and WAFBA Joy Beckerman – Principal at Hemp Ace International Dionne Holmquist – Director at Makoce Agriculture Development Ken Elliott – Founder of IND HEMP Jean Lotus – Publisher of Hemp Build Magazine Chris Fontes – CEO of High Spirits Beverages U.S. Hemp Authority – Chris Fontes is President Andrew Bish – President of the Hemp Feed Coalition Bish Enterprises – COO Andrew Bish Greg Wilson – Founder of HempWood Topics Covered in This Episode Confusion over the definition of "hemp" Tension between cannabinoid and industrial sectors Misuse of the word “hemp” for intoxicating products Historical meaning and etymology of the word hemp Short-term profit vs. long-term industry building Cannabinoid products dominating policy conversations Farmer-focused versus consumer-focused markets Executive order rumors and Farm Bill delays Regulatory clarity and safety for consumers Indigenous sovereignty and tribal hemp regulation Shifting public perception through language Need for strong fiber and grain infrastructure Caution about unchecked cannabinoid products GRAS status and feed approval for hemp grain The role of big companies (Ford, Tesla, etc.) in scaling hemp Climate, soil, and sustainability potential of hemp Integrity, transparency, and labeling standards Disagreements within the industry over goals and methods Shared values across hemp sectors despite conflicts The importance of unity and focusing on common ground Joy Beckerman's public stance against intoxicating derivatives The idea of a regulatory split between floral and industrial hemp Hemp's potential for rural revitalization Making hemp “boring” again to normalize it as a commodity Thanks to our sponsors: IND HEMP National Hemp Association Forever Green Production and audio engineering by Lancaster Farming Audio Team: Sophia Kurzius, Justin Berger and Eric Hurlock.

They argue that the Bible, guided by the Holy Spirit, is all we need to make disciples—and that real transformation happens when we don't just study it, but actually obey it. Scripture as the Curriculum: They challenge the idea that extra curriculum is necessary. Josh makes it clear: disciple-making movements around the world stick to scripture, and it works—because the Spirit is the true teacher. Misuse and Misunderstanding: Jason calls out how people often twist scripture to back up their own opinions, rather than letting it speak for itself. He warns against treating the Bible like a suggestion box, a habit influenced by overly rational approaches from past centuries. Obedience Matters: Reading the Bible isn't the goal—living it out is. The hosts point to Jesus' parable of the wise and foolish builders as a reminder that hearing without doing leads nowhere. Keeping It Simple: Jason shares a story about leading a study in Colossians where he got caught up in sounding smart, but realized deep insights didn't lead to actual discipleship. Sometimes, less is more. Discovery Bible Study (DBS): They're big fans of DBS—a simple, powerful tool used globally. Four questions guide the study: What does this teach us about God? What does it teach us about people? How can we obey it? Who can we share it with? Practical Steps: The guys offer ideas for churches and individuals to make scripture central again—like doing regular, communal scripture studies using the DBS method. A Global Perspective: Josh wraps up with stories of believers around the world who cling to scripture despite persecution. He challenges listeners to take the Word seriously—and live it out. Resources: They close by pointing listeners to discipleship.org for tools and resources to help build scripture-centered discipleship practices.

In this episode of 'Cos,' Stony Brewery delves into the significance of treating Scripture as the main course rather than mere background seasoning. The discussion begins with an analysis of verses from Daniel and Revelation, emphasizing the blessings tied to reading and keeping God's Word. The episode critically examines modern practices of relegating Scripture to the role of an appetizer in sermons, blog posts, and podcasts. Through various biblical examples, including personal anecdotes and academic citations, the speaker stresses the need for Scripture to be the focal point of teaching and preaching, not secondary to human commentary. The show calls for a return to reverence for God's Word, urging listeners to let the Bible speak for itself and to ensure that their faith and teachings are rooted in Scripture.   00:00 Introduction and Purpose of the Podcast 00:11 Scriptural Insights: Daniel and Revelation 01:22 The Importance of Scripture in Teaching 03:46 Misuse of Scripture in Modern Contexts 05:27 Reverence for the Word of God 08:11 Scripture in Debates and Preaching 19:31 Concluding Thoughts and Viewer Interaction      

The True Meaning of Faith | Misuse vs. Biblical Faith ExplainedIn this foundational teaching, we explore the true meaning of faith according to Scripture—rooted in trust, obedience, and covenant relationship with God—not as a “force” to control or manipulate spiritual outcomes.We begin with the biblical truth from Ephesians 2:8-9, showing that salvation is by grace through faith, not by works or mystical force.We then correct false teachings such as “faith as a force” or “the faith of God,” often based on misinterpreted verses like Mark 11:22. Faith is not a power you wield—it is trust in God rooted in relationship and obedience.Using examples from Genesis, Deuteronomy, Romans, Galatians, and Hebrews, we establish that faith is always relational and Christ-centered, never mechanical or self-powered.We also unpack Hebrews 11:1, showing that “faith is the substance/confidence” fully aligns with the biblical view of trust in God demonstrated through action.Finally, we dive into the spiritual gift of faith (1 Cor 12:9), showing real examples from Elijah (1 Kings 17) and Paul (Acts 14) where this supernatural trust led to miraculous outcomes.Whether you're seeking clarity, correcting error, or growing deeper in your understanding of biblical faith, this episode will ground your faith in truth, covenant, and Christ.Ephesians 2:8-9, Mark 11:22, Genesis 15:6, Hebrews 11:1, Romans 3:22, Galatians 2:16, 1 Corinthians 12:9Subscribe for more teachings rooted in the Word and centered on the Messiah!

Prescription Stimulant Use, Misuse, and Use Disorder Among US Adults Aged 18 to 64 Years  JAMA Psychiatry This study examined the prevalence of prescription stimulant use, prescription stimulant misuse, and prescription stimulant use disorder (PSUD) among adults aged 18 to 64 years in the US. Researchers found that 25.3% of adults in the study reported misuse, and 9.0% had PSUD. Among those with PSUD, 72.9% solely used their own prescribed stimulants, 87.1% used amphetamines, 42.5% reported no misuse, and 63.6% had mild PSUD. The prevalence of misuse was 3.1 times higher and the prevalence of PSUD was 2.2 times higher among those using prescription amphetamines than among those using methylphenidate. Regardless of prescription stimulant misuse status, screening for and treating PSUD is needed for US adults aged 18 to 64 years using prescription stimulants, especially those receiving prescription amphetamines.    Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

Coercive control is about trying to take away someone's autonomy and agency. It's a form of domestic abuse that is often misunderstood and frequently dismissed. In this replay episode, I sit down with the incredible Laura Richards—renowned criminal behavioral analyst and expert on domestic violence—to break it all down.   Laura and I discuss the misuse of terms like “narcissistic abuse” and “toxic relationships,” and why getting the terminology right is critical. When these words are misapplied, it can cause real harm, making it harder for victims to recognize what's happening to them and for others to take it seriously. We also talk about the broader societal factors that allow domestic violence to persist and why these patterns are so deeply embedded.   We take a closer look at high-profile cases like Gabby Petito and Lauren Dunne Astley to illustrate how coercive control plays out in real life and the devastating consequences it can have. Laura also sheds light on how the media often memorializes male perpetrators while subtly placing blame on victims, a pattern that continues to fuel dangerous misconceptions.   Beyond analyzing the problem, Laura shares the incredible work she's doing to have coercive control legally recognized as a form of domestic abuse. She explains why advocacy, education, and legal reform are essential to protecting victims and shifting the way society understands domestic violence.   This is an eye-opening conversation, and one I hope will help others recognize coercive control for what it is.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Introduction  02:29 Defining Narcissistic Abuse and Toxic Relationships 04:15 Misuse of the Term “Narcissist” 06:17 Psychopathy and Domestic Violence 09:04 Violent Resistance in Domestic Violence 11:43 Breakup Violence and Coercive Control 18:29 Gender Roles and Social Conditioning 26:15 Recognizing Non-Obvious Patterns of Abuse 30:18 Devaluation and Pedestalization in Relationships 33:56 Concept of Unfreedom in Coercive Control 38:50 Insidious Nature of Coercive Control 41:06 Cultural and Traditional Reinforcement of Male Privilege 47:35 Legal Recognition of Coercive Control Connect with Laura Richards: https://www.youtube.com/@crimeanalyst https://www.crime-analyst.com https://wondery.com/shows/real-crime-profile/ www.thelaurarichards.com https://www.dashriskchecklist.com/ Insta: https://www.instagram.com/laurarichards999/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/crimeanalyst/?hl=en TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@crimeanalystpod?lang=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/laurarichards99 https://twitter.com/thecrimeanalyst   Connect with Dr. Z: https://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/ https://www.zgrouptherapy.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dr.z_psychologist/ https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.z_psychologist https://www.youtube.com/@DrJaimeZuckerman   The Z Group is now accepting patients nationwide!
