Sign-up for my free 20-day devotional, The Word Before Work Foundations, at http://TWBWFoundations.com--Series: The Most Excellent WayDevotional: 2 of 5I will show you the most excellent way…love is kind. (1 Corinthians 12:31, 13:4)If you had to describe Fred Rogers (of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood fame) in a single word, it would likely be kindness—a virtue he learned from his father.According to Fred's biographer, Maxwell King, Jim Rogers made it a habit to “walk through the rows of manufacturing machines,” in his businesses, “addressing each employee by name, inquiring about their work and about their welfare.” Those inquiries helped Jim Rogers discover financial pain in the lives of his employees, which he frequently offered to alleviate. When Jim died, his journal recorded “thousands of ‘loans' that were never collected.”The kindness of Fred Rogers's father led to extraordinary acts of kindness of his own—stories of which have literally filled many books. So it should be with us. As we meditate on the kindness of our Heavenly Father, it should lead us to model that same kindness to those we work with as this is part of “the most excellent way” Paul is calling us to in 1 Corinthians 12-13.We know what kindness looks like. The challenge for us busy professionals is seeing the needs of those who need kindness the most. How can we spot opportunities to show God's kindness to those we work with? Here are three ideas.#1: Ask co-workers about their welfare—not just their work. See Jim Rogers as Exhibit A.#2: Schedule one-on-ones where work is the only thing not on the agenda. If you're a leader in your organization, consider borrowing this practice from my friend Sean Kouplen, CEO of one of the fastest growing banks in America. As Sean shared on my podcast, managers at his bank are required to spend 30 minutes with every direct report every week just to check-in on them personally. These meetings are crazy costly by the world's standards, but crazy valuable by God's, as they unearth tons of opportunities to show kindness to those in need.#3: Refuse to hurry. It's impossible to show kindness without first seeing a need for kindness. And it's impossible to see a need for kindness when you're constantly in a rush (see Jesus, Jairus, and the hemorrhaging woman as case-in-point in Mark 5:21-43). Want to spot opportunities to show kindness to your co-workers? Budget plenty of margin into your day.Jesus said the world will know that we are his disciples, not by what we say we believe, but by our love for one another (see John 13:35). Find one opportunity to show your love of Jesus by demonstrating uncommon lovingkindness to a co-worker today!

In this episode, Adam and Dr. Drew talk about how TV dads (in Adam's case) were nothing like his dad in real life...the fellas can't stand people that are "never wrong" and how they don't see Mr. Rogers as someone that they would have a beer with.

Not that long ago, culturally speaking, someone known throughout the world for being neighborly said some things that most likely would have gotten him fired today. And, believe it or not, he said these things on public television!  Fred Rogers of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood often performed songs he wrote to address issues that confused children or caused them to struggle. One of these songs, “Everybody's Fancy,” was featured in numerous episodes of his hit show from 1968 to 1991. He hoped to help children love and value their bodies and to respect other children, too. Rogers was, of course, completely unaware of the modern controversies over LGBTQ identities that would soon dominate the culture, but, in several lines of the song, he expressed truths that are no longer permitted to be said out loud.   Take a listen:   "Boys are boys from the beginning. Girls are girls right from the start. Everybody's fancy, everybody's fine. Your body's fancy and so is mine. ... Only girls can grow up to be the mommies. Only boys can grow up to be the daddies." Can you imagine someone saying these things on PBS today? In fact, in a segment last year from the Let's Learn TV series, PBS stations across the country featured a drag queen who goes by the stage name “Lil Miss Hot Mess” singing lines from his book, The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish, to the tune of “The Wheels on the Bus go Round and Round.” “Hot Mess” is a grown man who dresses in flamboyant and exaggerated women's clothing and makeup, and then seeks an audience with children.   The most obvious takeaway is that any trust previous generations of parents and kids had for public television was, long ago, squandered. A second takeaway is just how quickly some ideas have shifted from being unthinkable to unquestionable. Therefore, we should doubt anyone who tries to gaslight us into thinking we're regressive bigots for believing male and female are realities built into human nature.   Only a short time ago, some facts were considered so obvious and universally accepted that Mister Rogers could sing about them to children on a publicly funded medium, and no one thought anything whatsoever about gender dysphoria, transgender identity, or drag queens when he did. Does that mean Fred Rogers was a bigot? Was he a transphobe? No. In fact, no one had ever heard of such accusations at the time.  As an ordained Presbyterian minister, Rogers viewed the world in a noticeably Christian way. Though he didn't often discuss his faith publicly, his dedication to and concern for children was, in very real ways, Christ-like. For example, Rogers did not avoid difficult subjects if he believed kids needed to talk about them. So, he dealt with death, divorce, and racism, and he had a way of empathizing with the especially deep sorrow and confusion children can feel over such things.   “Everybody's Fancy” was Rogers' way of teaching children that they are fearfully and wonderfully made. For Rogers, that included talking about the human body as something good, as worth appreciating and caring for. Mister Rogers even taught children that one thing that made bodies special was that they were gendered, and that this gender had significance for who and what they would become in life. As he said, only boys can grow up to be daddies, and only girls can grow up to be mommies.   In this, Mister Rogers' Neighborhood was unlike so many children's shows that vaguely taught and sang about how “everyone is special.” Barney was not only irritating, it was gnostic. Mr. Rogers, at least in this song, had a robust applied creational theology.  That's not to say Mr. Rogers always got it right. It seems, for example, that his compassion eventually got in the way of clear thinking on sexuality and gender, though he kept his views quiet for the sake of avoiding controversy.  Even so, his strong affirmation of the goodness and permanence of male and female—and the fact that he generated no controversy for saying these things—should make us think. What he sang then is no less obviously true now, and it's absurd to suggest that Mister Rogers was some hate-filled bigot for holding these views, as our president seemed to imply recently.   No, it's those who tell children that their “fancy bodies” may, in fact, be the wrong bodies and in need of social, chemical, or surgical alteration, who are living in the land of make-believe.   Today's Breakpoint was co-authored by Shane Morris.

Mike Milbury in studio, previews Bruins season, says Monty needs to drop the Mr. Rogers act

In this episode, Adam and Dr. Drew talk about how TV dads (in Adam's case) were nothing like his dad in real life...the fellas can't stand people that are "never wrong" and how they don't see Mr. Rogers as someone that they would have a beer with.

Recently, Chloe Cole, a 19-year-old young woman who was pressured to undergo transgender surgeries, challenged a social media video by Neil deGrasse Tyson, the populist astronomer and science personality. Although a legitimate astrophysicist, Dr. Tyson's public proclamations and videos are not always from his area of scientific expertise. In fact, they aren't always scientific.   In this particular video, Tyson asserted, in favor of gender ideology, that “no matter my chromosomes today, I feel 80% female, 20% male. I'm going to put on makeup. I'm gonna do it. Tomorrow, I might feel 80% male.” Seemingly to Dr. Tyson, the ability of people of any gender to feel a particular way and then to put on makeup accordingly, proves that “the XX/XY chromosomes are insufficient because when we wake up in the morning, we exaggerate whatever feature we want to portray the gender of our choice.” Dr. Tyson continued in a blatantly non-scientific statement, “What business is it of yours to require that I fulfill your inability to think of gender on a spectrum?”   In her reply, Chloe Cole interspersed video of herself confronting his bizarre claims.   How about we stop confusing basic human biology with cosmetics? Like, what a weird jump. … I don't wear makeup most days. If I leave the house without makeup on, does that make me like 70% [m]ale?... If it was only truly about aesthetics, nobody would care. It's my business because you're using 1950s gender stereotypes to justify an ideology that leads to the sterilization and mastectomies of 15-year-old girls who just don't fit in, girls like me.  Cole ends her video with,  The idea that people can be percentages of either male or female just further reinforces the fact that biological sex is a binary. There's only two. There may only be two sexes, but there are an infinite number of personalities. I mean, it really doesn't take a degree in astrophysics to understand that.  Watching Dr. Tyson's video and Cole's response, I was reminded of something from my childhood. Due to the popularity of Superman in the late 1970s, Mr. Rogers dedicated a week of his daily TV show to helping kids distinguish between what was real and what was make-believe. He was concerned by the reports of children who put on capes and thought they could fly, leaping from staircases or top bunks or balconies and causing serious injuries. He even took his viewers onto the set of the show The Incredible Hulk to show them that the actors involved were indeed only actors.  In other words, he understood that children struggled to distinguish between make-believe and reality. This is exactly what Chloe Cole did earlier this week, only she was instructing an astrophysicist about the harm done to children in the name of “science,” while Mr. Rogers was confronting the harm done to children by cartoons. Cole knows that putting on makeup, a dress, or a muscle shirt cannot transform a man into a woman or a woman into a man. Even worse, she knows that neither did the testosterone she received at age 13 nor the double mastectomy at age 15 make her a boy.   According to Mr. Rogers' biographer Max King in the documentary Won't You Be My Neighbor?, Rogers was “angry that it was his medium that was doing this,” i.e., deluding and harming children. What began with his concern about children being misled prompted a new weekly theme for the show Mister Rogers' Neighborhood that dealt with tough issues such as death and divorce.    Like Cole, Rogers wasn't a scientist. But he was committed to helping children discern truth from error, the difference between make-believe and reality, between the cosmetic and one's identity. He even famously sang a song that clarified that kids could not become whatever or whoever they wanted, that only boys could be daddies, and only girls could be mommies. In fact, he once said, “I'll tell you what children really need. They need adults who will protect them from the ever-ready molders of their world.”  Those are the kind of adults who children still need. What we all need less of is the sort of thinly disguised, condescending, and anti-scientific rhetoric that molds their identities.  This Breakpoint was co-authored by Dr. Heather Peterson.

Original Air Date 2-2-2020 Today we take a look at the relationship between fear, anger and how to deal with the structural forces of harm in our society. To help us, we examine two of the greatest thinkers of the past 65 years, Martin Luther King Jr. and Mister Rogers, and go beyond the nonviolence of King and interrogate Mr. Roger's insistence on liking everyone just the way they are.

Bud Light decided to double down after its sponsorship with trans activist Dylan Mulvaney caused significant blowback. The problem with this isn't that Bud Light wants to be "inclusive." It's that the company continues to take advantage of and make a mockery of women. Instead of burying our heads in the sand and ignoring this, we're going to continue calling it out and mocking it. Speaking of women under attack, former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines was reportedly assaulted by a man in a dress and mobbed by verbally abusive protesters after giving a speech Thursday at San Francisco State University. Instead of denouncing the violence, the university decided to extoll those responsible. The same people protesting Riley Gaines would surely have tried to cancel Mr. Rogers if they saw the recent video montage of the beloved children's entertainer singing "Everybody's Fancy." The classic Mr. Rogers tune very simply explains that boys are boys and girls are girls. Of course, saying that is taboo in the upside-down world we inhabit. A trans ballerina, Sophie Rebecca, set the internet ablaze after video of "her" performing a ballet routine went viral. All those adjectives you think of when imagining a ballerina, well, this is exactly the opposite. Let's just say Sophie ain't very graceful. In what may be the most horrifying story this week, the Dalai Lama was caught on camera telling a young boy to "suck his tongue." The official excuse for the incident? Well, his holiness was just kidding. Nothing to see here, folks! The FBI released a domestic terrorism reference guide, and some of the entries are hilarious.  Today's Sponsors: Bareel Buddy Cleaning guns is just one of those necessary hassles in life. Personally, I hate it. It's a dirty job, but we've got to do it. Patches are messy and very inefficient.

Fred Rogers observed that when times are bad, we should “look for the helpers.” Is this suggestion appropriate only for children, or is it helpful for adults, too?
