    How to Reframe an Angry Year, with Michael Wear

    Conversing

    Play Episode Listen Later Dec 30, 2025 44:01


    Can joy be anything but denial in a rage-filled public life? Michael Wear joins Mark Labberton to reframe politics through the kingdom logic of hope, agency, and practices of silence and solitude. As 2025 closes amid political discord, we might all ask whether joy can be real in public life—without denial, escapism, or contempt. "… Joy is a pervasive and constant sense of wellbeing." In this conversation, Michael Wear and Mark Labberton reflect on joy, hope, responsibility, and agency amid a reaction-driven politics. Together they discuss the realism of Advent; the limits of our control; how kingdom imagination reframes anger; hope beyond outcomes, dignity under threat, and practices (including silence and solitude) that restore clarity. Episode Highlights "Joy is a pervasive and constant sense of wellbeing. … Joy is not a technique to then get people to do what you want them to do." "God's Kingdom is the range of his effective will." " Someone whose hope is rightly placed sees that a dignity denying culture does not have the final say." "Our will is effective and those things in which our will is not effective." "The pattern of domination and violence is an old one." About Michael Wear Michael Wear is the Founder, President, and CEO of the Center for Christianity and Public Life, a nonpartisan nonprofit that contends for the credibility of Christian resources in public life, for the public good. He has served for more than a decade as a trusted advisor to civic and religious leaders on faith and public life, including as a presidential campaign and White House staffer. He is the author of The Spirit of Our Politics: Spiritual Formation and the Renovation of Public Life and Reclaiming Hope: Lessons Learned in the Obama White House About the Future of Faith in America.

"Willard would say joy is a pervasive and constant sense of wellbeing." " It is very difficult to have joy if you are taking responsibility for things that are not your responsibility." Public life as joyless space; lacking imagination for joy amid provocation, antagonism, and constant political showmanship "If there are places in our life where we can't conceive of joy, it's a problem with our view of God." Misplaced responsibility, misplaced hope; joy collapses when taking on burdens that aren't ours and treating agency as ultimate "God's kingdom is the range of his effective will." "We each have our own little kingdoms … where what we say to be done is done." Politics reveals limits; a clarity about what we can do, what we can't do, and what we must import into the rest of life "Our will is effective, and there are things in which our will is not effective." "Faithfulness is not the ability to determine a righteous outcome … to everything in which our lives touch." False responsibility, obscured agency Are we taking charge of what isn't ours while ignoring the real choices we do have? "That's a recipe for joylessness." Poked and prodded by provocations; entertainment, antagonisms, and helplessness normalize reaction and justify complicity Anger as political fuel Many assume that raising your voice is the only faithful posture inside the public arena. "I've had people respond to me: 'How am I going to get anything done in politics without anger?'" "Political imagination has been taken over by a political logic as opposed to a kingdom logic." Relearning responsibility and agency; hope not grounded in our effectiveness, but in what God is doing beyond our reach. "Ultimate hope lies outside of the range of our effective will." "It is in that realm in which we are perfectly safe." Hope is for a life that pervades all things. "So when your hope is in the right place, you can hope for a whole range of things." " Someone whose hope is rightly placed sees that a dignity denying culture does not have the final say." Hope and joy "when your back is against the wall" Allen Temple Baptist Church: Joy at the margins of culture Fannie Lou Hamer Howard Thurman, Jesus and the Disinherited First Presbyterian Church in Evanston, IL Michael Wear, The Spirit of Our Politics Psalm 23 as distress-psalm: Enemies are still present, yet God leads beside still waters and cares most in greatest distress. "Take off the old self with its practices and put on the new self." "Put on Christ now in a way that will affect everything around us." Herod: The paranoid leader Advent into Christmastide—what it means to dwelling in Emmanuel "This is why the incarnation is such an extraordinarily important cornerstone: It's that God enters in through Jesus into our world, in a world in which, yes, there may be great praises in heaven and on earth from those who understand something at least of who he is and what he's there to do. But it also lands him in a world of immediate physical and familial vulnerability of political and social, if not military, violence." Are we protected from vulnerability, or living in precarity? The pattern of domination and violence Refusing forgetfulness as 2026 approaches with fresh pressures and fresh calling. National call to silence and solitude; disinvesting from reactionary instincts to engage the world with renewed vision and clarity. silenceandsolitude.org "Silence and solitude… can infuse your public activity with right vision and right clarity." #MichaelWear #MarkLabberton #ChristianPublicLife #ChristianPolitics #SpiritualFormation #Joy #Advent #SilenceAndSolitude #Hope #PublicWitness Production Credits Conversing is produced and distributed in partnership with Comment Magazine and Fuller Seminary.

    In this episode of Cryptid Warfare, we dive deep into the biology, history, and prevailing theories surrounding some of North America's most infamous legends—cryptids and the Wendigo. Moving beyond campfire stories, this conversation examines these phenomena through a scientific and historical lens while confronting the darker implications behind the legends. Joined by Dr. Dennis Carroll of the Hunting the Shadows podcast and Kenny (Starfox) from the Midnight Lycanthropy & The North American Dogman Project.  We explore eyewitness testimony's, anthropological records, biological possibilities, and psychological factors that may explain—or challenge—what people are encountering in the wild. From the origins of the Wendigo legend to modern cryptid encounters, we discuss how culture, environment, and human behavior intersect with these reports. Are these creatures misidentified wildlife, undiscovered species, manifestations of trauma, or something far more unsettling? This episode is an unflinching look at cryptids not as myths, but as phenomena that continue to leave physical, psychological, and historical footprints across generations.           (Dr. Dennis Carroll is a National and Internationally Known Writer/Author and an Authority on The Occult and Folklore.

    There is a lot of discussion about "affordability," especially regarding young Americans' ability to buy their first home and achieve financial stability. A key step in achieving that American dream is getting a good job, but the problem is that getting that job has become harder, especially for Gen Z. Economic growth is being driven by productivity and investment in artificial intelligence, rather than by hiring. This is creating what some call a "jobless boom" in some industries. Translation: the job market is very competitive. Suzy Welch, a Professor of Management Practice at NYU's Stern School of Business, and author of the book Becoming You, joins FOX Business' Lydia Hu to discuss the state of the job market and how to navigate it.

    Note: A PDF of his House testimony including factual and quantitative analysis is available on line & at www.thespaceshow.com for the Dec. 21, 2025 Space Show program with Mike. He testified before the House on Dec. 4, 2025.The Space Show Presents Dr. Mike Griffin, Tuesday, Dec. 23, 2025Quick Summary:Our program with guest Dr. Mike Griffin primarily focused on discussing NASA's current lunar exploration program and its challenges, with extensive testimony from Mike about the technical limitations and risks of the Artemis III plan. The participants explored alternative architectures and technical solutions, including the need for orbital flight tests and cryogenic propellant management capabilities. The discussion concluded with concerns about the program's timeline and infrastructure limitations, while emphasizing the importance of U.S. leadership in space exploration and the need for more diverse expert participation in future discussions.David and Mike discussed the challenges and concerns surrounding NASA's current approach to returning to the moon, with Mike emphasizing that the existing plans with SpaceX and Blue Origin are unlikely to succeed. They highlighted the need for a different launch system and expressed frustration over the perceived mismanagement of the mission timeline. The conversation also touched on the potential for additional space vehicles to support lunar missions, though Mike noted that the current architecture does not require them. David introduced the evening's program and mentioned that Mike's testimony would be a key focus, setting the stage for a detailed discussion on the future of lunar exploration.Dr. Griffin testified before Congress about China's moon program and the United States' response, emphasizing that China is actively developing lunar capabilities while the U.S. lacks a coherent strategy at a special House committee meeting on Dec. 4, 2025. He criticized the Artemis III plan, arguing it cannot succeed due to technical challenges with cryogenic propellant storage and the near rectilinear halo orbit design, which leaves crews stranded for extended periods. Dr. Griffin proposed an alternative dual-launch architecture using the SLS, similar to China's approach, but acknowledged that the U.S. needs more heavy lift capacity.Mike explained that switching the program of record to a new architecture would require a significant commitment and involve multiple steps, including the new NASA administrator investigating the controversy, the president approving a change, and Congress appropriating funds. He emphasized that the current Artemis program architecture will not work and offered an alternative solution, while noting that other approaches could also succeed. I inquired about the process to switch the program of record, and our guest outlined the steps that would need to be taken, including potential sole source assignments to contractors.Our Space Show Wisdom Team discussed the technical challenges and feasibility of NASA's lunar mission concept, focusing on the difficulties of cryogenic propellant management and boil-off control in the lunar environment. Mike emphasized that the mission's current design lacks necessary expertise and experience, particularly in maintaining cryogenic temperatures for extended periods, and expressed concerns about the potential risks to crew safety. The participants agreed that the concept, as currently proposed, is unlikely to succeed within a reasonable timeframe. Marshall highlighted the specific challenge of managing heat on the sunlit lunar surface. I inquired about SpaceX's perspective regarding the challenges and risks, but Mike clarified that he could not speak for SpaceX engineers and emphasized that no amount of engineering brilliance can rescue a fundamentally flawed concept.We continued discussing concerns about the U.S. lunar exploration program and its competitiveness with China. Mike expressed frustration that the current architecture lacks sufficient delta-V and a credible lunar lander, while Ajay raised questions about the feasibility of multiple refueling missions. The discussion highlighted tensions between using cryogenic versus storable liquid propulsion systems, with Griffin advocating for storable liquids for the first crewed mission due to infrastructure limitations on the moon. The conversation concluded with his emphasizing the importance of U.S. leadership in space exploration and his preference for a simpler, safer approach to lunar missions.Mike and Ajay discussed the challenges of refueling in space, particularly for cryogenic liquids, and the risks associated with multiple launches. They expressed skepticism about the Blue Origin architecture and the feasibility of the NRHO concept due to technical limitations and the lack of demonstrated technology. Mike emphasized that if a mission failed, the fleet would likely be grounded until the problem is understood and solved, similar to historical practices in air and spaceflight. David asked about a potential point of no return for a new mission design, but Mike suggested there isn't a definitive point where re-engagement would be impossible. He expressed concern about the U.S. not being actively involved in lunar exploration, noting that China's success is not guaranteed lunar success either.Mike further emphasized the necessity of conducting an orbital flight test to demonstrate cryogenic propellant transfer and boil-off prevention before committing to a mission that involves significant national investment. He highlighted the importance of seeing such a test to validate the technology, as calculations alone would not be sufficient. Phil noted the success of the space shuttle's test flight and asked if thorough analysis and ground tests could convince Mike to which Mike responded that the shuttle's testing was significantly more extensive than what had been proposed for Artemis. Marshall suggested building a high-quality space station as a more efficient use of national resources than a moon mission, but our guest argued that space stations should serve mission needs and not be the initial focus. John proposed the idea of constructing a propellant depot with refrigeration capabilities to support future lunar missions, which Griffin supported as a viable option for refueling architecture.Our guest discussed the technical limitations of NASA's current approach to lunar missions, emphasizing that the proposed method of refueling in Earth orbit before heading to the moon is not feasible due to the lack of cryogenic fluid management capabilities. He compared this to a hypothetical cross-country flight that requires frequent refueling, highlighting the impracticality of the current plan. Mike expressed concern that the project may eventually stall due to technological constraints, noting that previous attempts to address similar issues in NASA's history faced significant political and public backlash. He also acknowledged the challenges faced by Jared Isaacman, the new NASA administrator, in making major changes to the current plan, but declined to offer specific advice on how to navigate these challenges.We also focused on NASA's responsibility for selecting the right approach to return to the moon, with Mike emphasizing that technical decisions should not be made through public votes. David expressed appreciation for Mike's insights and mentioned plans to share the discussion on Space Show global media accounts.

For four decades, Perdue Truckers have been delivering holiday cheer to the Holly Center in Maryland, a residential facility for individuals with mental and physical disabilities. This initiative highlights the company's commitment to supporting vulnerable communities.
