It's the middle of award season, and Ryan Coogler's ode to the Black music canon Sinners has emerged as the Oscars frontrunner and the most nominated film in Academy Awards history. The love the movie has for the Delta blues is front and center, and begs the question: will the movie's legacy help bring the blues back into popular culture? There's already been a precedent for films reviving dead genres – think The Sting and its ragtime score, or O Brother Where Art Thou's relationship to bluegrass – and on this episode of Switched On Pop, Reanna and Nate talk with Vulture writer Fran Hoepfner about the times in which movie soundtracks have shifted the musical culture. Read Fran's piece on movie scoring, The Death of the Classic Film Score, here.

This podcast episode explores various strategies for maximizing hunting properties through effective land management, habitat improvement, and sustainable practices. The conversation delves into the importance of evaluating landscapes, managing water resources, and integrating wildlife support systems. The guest, Ben Falk, shares insights on pond design, the role of animals in fertility, and the benefits of perennial crops, emphasizing a holistic approach to land stewardship. In this conversation, the speakers delve into various aspects of sustainable land management, focusing on tree management, the use of herbicides, the dynamics of invasive species, and the human impact on ecosystems. Jon Teater and Ben discuss the importance of working with nature rather than against it, emphasizing the long-term benefits of planting trees and fostering biodiversity. The conversation also touches on the mindset shifts necessary for effective land stewardship and the legacy that current practices can leave for future generations.   takeaways Start your design with soil type and regional land use. Evaluate your property at a finer level for better management. Animal enrichment creates healthier wildlife environments. Water management is crucial for supporting life and habitats. Ponds provide multiple benefits, including recreation and wildlife support. Integrate trees and perennial crops for sustainable growth. Cows can enhance soil fertility through their natural behaviors. Thinning trees can promote better growth and health. Planting diverse species can create resilient ecosystems. Managing water resources can lead to new springs and groundwater recharge. Hardwoods can reset and manage tree populations effectively. Plums can be toxic to cattle, necessitating careful management. Nature's systems are inherently balanced and not making mistakes. Herbicides are often unnecessary; plants can manage themselves. Invasive species can be beneficial and should be understood, not eradicated. We are part of nature and can positively influence ecosystems. Planting trees is a long-term investment in the future. The act of planting trees can shift one's perspective on nature. Human impact on landscapes can create lasting legacies.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we dive into groundbreaking research revealing the true composition of the Earth's core, explore new insights into solar neutrinos, and uncover the complexities of Martian volcanoes.Earth's Core Contains Vast Hydrogen ReservoirA recent study published in Nature Communications indicates that Earth's core may hold up to 45 oceans' worth of hydrogen, challenging the long-held belief that water on our planet primarily came from asteroids and comets. Utilizing advanced laboratory techniques, researchers simulated the extreme conditions of the core to uncover its surprising hydrogen content, suggesting a significant internal source of water far beyond previous estimates.Neutrinos from the Sun's CoreA new dark matter experiment has successfully detected neutrinos originating from the Sun's core, marking a significant milestone in our understanding of these elusive particles. The LZ experiment at the Sanford Underground Research Facility captured signals from Brian 8 solar neutrinos, providing valuable data on solar processes and setting new limits for dark matter research. This breakthrough highlights the potential of neutrino studies in unraveling the mysteries of both dark matter and stellar dynamics.Complexity of Martian VolcanoesNew findings published in Geology reveal that young Martian volcanoes are far more complex than previously thought. Researchers have discovered that these volcanoes were shaped by long-lasting and evolving magma systems rather than single eruptions. By analyzing surface features and mineral compositions from orbit, scientists have reconstructed the intricate eruptive history of these volcanic systems, shedding light on the Red Planet's geological past.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNature Communications, GeologyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-with-stuart-gary--2458531/support.(00:00:00) New study reveals Earth's core may contain vast amounts of hydrogen(00:08:30) Breakthrough in solar neutrino detection from the Sun's core(00:16:45) Insights into the complex eruptive history of Martian volcanoes(00:25:00) Science report: The link between caffeine consumption and reduced dementia risk(00:32:15) Study on the frequency of passionate love experiences in humans

Today on Ascend: The Great Books Podcast, Dcn. Harrison Garlick and Dr. Donald Prudlo, the Warren Chair of Catholic Studies at the University of Tulsa, discuss the Ante-Purgatory, the foot of Mount Purgatory (Cantos 1-5).Check out our guide on Dante's Purgatorio (out soon!)Visit Dr. Jason Baxter's website and use "Ascend" in the promo code for 20% off his Purgatorio audiobook.Thanks for the Center for Beauty and Culture at Benedictine College for their support!The conversation with Dr. Prudlo and Deacon Garlick on Cantos 1–5 of Purgatorio opens with the dramatic shift from the despair of Inferno to the hope and refreshment of Purgatory.In Canto 1, Dante and Virgil emerge from Hell onto the shores of Mount Purgatory at Easter dawn, where Dante humbly invokes Calliope, the Muse of epic poetry, signaling his project as “the Christian epic” (Dr. Donald Prudlo). They meet Cato the Younger, a pagan suicide saved by special grace, who embodies the four cardinal virtues and serves as Purgatory's guardian. Prudlo emphasizes the shock: “Cato the pagan, the suicide is going to heaven. And we have got to confront that or we're going to miss so much of what Dante has to tell us here” (Dr. Donald Prudlo). The ritual of washing with dew and girding with the humble reed contrasts the broken plants of the suicides in Hell and symbolizes the beginning of true humility and ascent.Cantos 2–5 introduce the late-repentant souls and the mountain's structure. In Canto 2, an angelic boat ferries souls singing “In exitu Israel de Aegypto,” a psalm of liberation that Prudlo calls “a multifaceted song” evoking Exodus, baptism, and community (Dr. Donald Prudlo). Casella's song of Dante's own poetry enchants the group until Cato rebukes their idleness.Cantos 3–5 explore excommunicated sinners like Manfred (“even under a curse like mine, no one's ever so lost that eternal love cannot come back, as long as hope has any sprouts of green” – Manfred via transcript) and the slothful Belacqua, who banters with Dante like old friends. Prudlo highlights the power of last-minute mercy and intercession: “Mary is the last refuge of sinners” (Dr. Donald Prudlo). The cantos teach that Purgatory is a place of communal hope, where grace reaches even the unlikely, and purification begins with humility, prayer, and rightly ordered love—setting the stage for the active ascent through the terraces.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Dante's Purgatorio04:42 The Importance of Reading Purgatorio08:02 Themes of Emancipation and Freedom10:57 The Role of Cato in Purgatorio13:49 Cato's Significance and Political Implications17:00 Cato as a Precursor to Christ19:51 Dante's Literary Techniques and Inspirations22:56 Contrasting Ulysses and Dante25:36 Cato's Death and Its Symbolism28:52 The Nature of Purgatory and Salvation31:51 Cato's Virtues and Their Relevance34:49 The Relationship Between Cato and Christ37:48 Conclusion and Reflections on Purgatorio50:03 Understanding Cato's Role in Purgatorio52:43 The Heartbreaking Choice of Cato54:39 Rituals and Purification in Purgatory01:00:18 The Arrival at Purgatory01:06:34 The Significance of Water in Salvation01:12:09 Virgil's Role and the Nature of Guidance01:24:57 Manfred: A Case of Late Repentance01:29:38 The Role of Intercessory Prayer in Purgatory01:34:00 Understanding Mount Purgatory and Its Significance01:40:15 The Character of Belacqua and Themes...

Preached by Jared Kress on Feb. 15, 2026. Music is an incredibly powerful force that can be used for good or evil, and it is a unique instrument in the worship of God. Today, we will examine the inescapability of music in our universe, its power, and how it can be used as God intended. May we understand the power of music as a God-given tool, and commit to using it for His glory. As we consider the inescapability of music in the universe, we see:1. The Ubiquity of Music    1. Man's Song    2. Nature's Song    3. Angels' Song    4. Jesus' Song    5. God's Song2. The Power of Music:    1. Peace for Saul    2. Prophecy for Elisha    3. Prisoner's Song    4.

Clare's Minister of State claims it's "too early to suggest" what kind of supports will be introduced to prevent further job losses in coastal communities. The first meeting of a taskforce established to respond to the loss of one third of Ireland's fishing quota this year has been held this week. The reduction is expected to cost the fishing industry €105 million, potentially impacting 2,300 jobs. Tulla-based Fianna Fáil Minister of State with responsibility for Fisheries and the Marine, Timmy Dooley, says fishing representative groups must be front and centre of talks.

Vous avez dit "bizarre" ? C'est bien normal. Voici la première série de Baleine sous Gravillon consacrée à des espèces animales extraordinairement étranges.Dans cette première série, Marc et Marie-Juliette se penchent sur 5 animaux à l'anatomie hors du commun.Après avoir exploré les bizarreries du Chevrotain porte-musc, un ongulé parfumeur aux dents longues, c'est au tour d'un insecte à la grosse tête de faire son entrée dans Baleine sous gravillon : le Fulgore porte-lanterne, une sorte de grosse cigale sud-américaine au masque... d'alligator ! À l'instar du Chevrotain, sa drôle de mine n'est pas son seul fait d'armes : il possède également des moyens de défense des plus... marquants. D'abord, des immenses ocelles de papillon sur ses ailes ; ensuite une odeur nauséabonde qu'il dégage quand il ses sent menacé. Eh oui, le Fulgore est un insecte péteur ! Enfin, il se distingue également sur le plan des amours : Monsieur se fait percussionniste professionnel lors de la saison de reproduction, et dans les années 70, un journaliste colombien a répandu une rumeur selon laquelle la morsure du Fulgore était mortelle pour les humains si l'on ne se soigne pas avec un rapport sexuel effectué dans les 24 heures... ___

On this special episode of The Nikki & Brie Show, Brie sits down with environmentalist, author, and activist Leah Thomas (aka @greengirlleah) for a heartfelt conversation about caring for the planet in a way that centers people. What first drew Brie to Leah was her soft, joyful approach to sustainability; educating without shame and action rooted in love. Together, they explore how environmentalism isn't just about trees and carbon footprints, but about clean water, safe communities, and making sure everyone has access to a healthy place to live.Leah shares how her journey began with a love for animals and evolved into a powerful mission of intersectional environmentalism and the belief that we can't protect the planet without also protecting marginalized communities. The two dive into climate anxiety, sustainable fashion, crafting with kids, and how small, realistic steps at home can create meaningful change. It's honest, grounding, and deeply inspiring.This episode is a reminder that we are not separate from nature, we are part of it. Healing the Earth starts with how we treat each other, our neighborhoods, and ourselves.

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode!Sitting down with Abi Dare to talk about her new book, Bring the Outside In, felt like having someone quietly turn on a light in rooms I thought I already understood. We started with the idea of nature in our homes, but very quickly moved far beyond the usual advice about adding more plants or maximizing daylight. Abi shows us how the landscapes we love can become a roadmap for every decision we make — from color palettes pulled from forest canopies and sunsets, to the mix of textures that make a space feel layered and alive. We explored curving shapes, reclaimed materials, and why a sleek piece of glass or metal can still feel deeply connected to the natural world. And then we went even deeper.We talked about prospect and refuge — that powerful instinct to feel protected while still being able to look out — and how it explains everything from our love of restaurant booths to the magic of a window seat. We discussed mystery and enticement, the importance of what you glimpse from one room to the next, and why transitions like hallways deserve far more attention than they usually get. My biggest takeaway? When you let nature lead, the pressure to “get it right” disappears. The choices start to feel intuitive. Personal. Grounded. Let nature do the heavy lifting.Download the free guide to Define Your Signature StyleBuy the book, "Slow Style Home"Learn more at our website Want to finally define your style?

Making observations in nature isn't just about what we see. Scientists use (almost) all of their senses to make observations, and in this video, we are focusing on the sense of touch. After exploring nature through sight, sound, and smell, it's now time to focus on the textures of nature and discover how different plants, surfaces, and organisms actually feel. Make sure to watch the ENTIRE video and read ALL of the text here for best practices for you and wildlife, as well as helpful apps to identify organisms.In this activity, I challenge you to head outside and search for as many different textures as you can find in nature. Can you find something rough like bark? Soft like moss? Fuzzy, smooth, or prickly? Even in wintertime, you'll find lots of different textures to explore!IMPORTANT: Before touching anything, make sure you know what wildlife in your area could be harmful, such as poison ivy or venomous animals. If you're ever unsure about an organism, don't touch it.Some organisms may surprise you! For instance, I talk about the cup plant, which has leaves that feel like tough sandpaper.Even in wintertime, you'll find lots of different textures to explore!IMPORTANT: Before touching anything, make sure you know what wildlife in your area could be harmful, such as poison ivy or venomous animals. If you're ever unsure about an organism, don't touch it. Tools like the Seek by iNaturalist app can assist with identifications through their built-in AI system. IMPORTANT: When it comes to animals, completely avoid touching mammals and birds, as this can harm them. Some amphibians, reptiles, and insects may be handled carefully if they are safe and non-venomous, and any animal you handle should be handled minimally and released afterward to reduce stress on the animal. Wear gloves when handling amphibians to protect their sensitive skin.Observing nature through touch and the other senses helps kids slow down and mindfully engage with their surroundings. I invite you to ask your children to reflect not only on WHAT they feel, but HOW they feel. For instance, how does being in nature make your child feel? Calm? Curious? Excited? Join us as we step outside, explore textures, and practice observing the natural world with fresh curiosity!Does your child love animals?

Being outside is having a cultural moment. From hiking trends to tallying up 1,000 hours to taking cold plunges and sharing “touch grass” memes, we're constantly told that getting outdoors is the cure for everything. But is outside really better than inside? And what does Scripture actually have to say about nature, embodiment, and the way we inhabit the world?In this episode of The GoodKind Podcast, Clayton Greene, Chris Pappalardo, and Amy Kavanaugh wrestle—playfully and seriously—with the cultural pressure to be “outdoorsy.” From camping debates to neighborhood walks, they explore what we're really longing for when we head outside: connection, movement, wonder, margin, and freedom from distraction.Together, they reflect on how the Bible consistently points us toward creation as a place of encounter with God—and how ordinary outdoor rhythms (not just epic adventures) can reorient our hearts, our families, and our faith.Takeaways You don't have to climb a mountain to benefit from the outdoors.Ordinary neighborhood walks count.Movement + nature + less tech = meaningful presence.Outside often creates space for better conversations.Wonder is available close to home.The Bible consistently uses creation to reveal God's character.The goal isn't aesthetic outdoor living—it's attentiveness.Chapters 00:00 - Cold Open01:09 - Welcome & episode setup06:20 - Is outside better than inside?15:22 - Nature, formation, and embodied life24:34 - The best kind of outside time29:02 - Creation in Scripture36:08 - Practical ways to reclaim ordinary outdoor rhythms

Paul Bierman is professor of environmental science at the University of Vermont, where he develops methods to understand ice and date rocks. His findings have been published in Science and Nature and in his recent book When The Ice Is Gone. On this episode of Nature Revisited, Bierman reveals a startling discovery about Greenland's rapidly melting ice sheet - it has melted naturally before, hundreds of thousands of years ago... Changes in Greenland due to a warming earth are already reverberating around the world, and Bierman explains how losing Greenland's ice will catalyze devastating events if we don't change course and address climate change now.

In this episode, Hattie shares the winding, courageous journey that led her to becoming a full-time flower farmer living on a smallholding in the countryside.She talks with Michelle about:Childhood upheaval and losing her family home at 11Surviving bacterial meningitis at 15 and a serious car crash at 19Working in waste management, landfill, and wildlife conservationCareer pivots into events, volunteering, and charity leadershipQuietly carrying a “one day” dream of a flower farm and wedding flowersFinally backing herself during the pandemic to rebuild life around natureWe explore how Hattie's life “tapestry” was woven from life shocks, resilience, and micro joys, and why she believes purpose, not speed or status, is the truest measure of success.Key TakeawaysDreams can take a decade (or more) and still be worth itHattie spent over 10 years moving through different roles and industries before landing in the life she'd imagined—proof that slow progress is still progress.Life shocks can create deep resilience and clarityLosing her home, surviving meningitis, and a near-fatal car accident all became pivotal points that sharpened her sense of what really matters.Your career is a tapestry, not a straight lineEach “random” job—waste management, conservation, city of culture, leadership programs—gave her skills she now uses daily on the farm (from land management to events to people skills).Purpose beats prestigeA lecturer's challenge—“Do you want low pay doing good, or big money defending harm?”—anchored her to roles with meaning and social/environmental impact.Nature is medicineTime outdoors has been central to Hattie's healing from grief and burnout. Her farm is designed as much for wildlife and immersion as for flowers.Micro joys can rebuild a broken season of lifeInstead of chasing big highs, Hattie learned to collect tiny, daily joys—a robin in the garden, a bird sighting, a small moment of beauty—and use them to slowly climb out of difficult years.You're allowed to change your mind—and your careerHattie repeatedly “started again” in new sectors. Each leap was scary, but reinforced the idea that confidence often comes after you jump, not before.Listening to your gut is a skill, not fluffFrom saying yes to the podcast invite to finally starting the flower farm, following her gut has been Hattie's compass—even when fear and imposter syndrome show up later.Timestamps00:00 – Welcome to the show & Hattie's “She Dares Wins” intro02:30 – Tapestry vs chapters: how Hattie views her life story04:45 – Losing her home at 11 and joining a new school mid-year06:30 – Contracting meningitis at 15 and the “life is short” wake‑up09:00 – The near-fatal Land Rover crash and a new sense of spirituality18:30 – From landfill and waste to wildlife conservation and values26:40 – Pandemic reflections and the decision to finally start a flower farm34:50 – Nature, micro joys, and inviting others to heal on the farmJoin Dare Club Now: Hosted on Acast.

They say, "Patience is a virtue."Based on the quotes you will hear this week, I believe that is probably true. I felt patience would be a good follow-up to last week's quotes on perseverance, because they work so well together. We actually heard "patience" mentioned in a few of the quotes last week. Today, we kick off a series of quotes on Patience with four quotes that have Nature as a common thread running through the quotes.As always, I am so grateful to all of you who support the podcast! I do this show because of you. While I enjoy the quotes myself, I do this podcast because many of you who are looking for inspiration and impact from these quotes come back and listen to it on a consistent basis.

Est-ce que vous vous êtes déjà demandé ce à quoi pourrait ressembler le fameux monde d'après ? On est nombreux à y projeter du temps pour contempler, réfléchir, créer, prendre soin, déployer la meilleure part de soi.Aujourd'hui, tout s'accélère et nous agrippe dans un rythme devenu fou. Le temps de réflexion est le grand sacrifié de ce nouveau chaos. On le vaporise dans des heures de scolling qui vampirisent nos loisirs. On devient addicts au shoot émotionnel des écrans, et on dépense sans compter notre temps de cerveau disponible. Cela nous éloigne de la liberté, celle qu'il s'agit de préserver dans la sphère des idées, de la culture, de l'esprit et du développement de la conscience. Mais cette autonomie, elle ne peut s'acquérir sans un temps « libre. » Un temps qui ne soit pas soumis à une utilité, un intérêt, une stratégie, parce que nous n'avons de compte à rendre qu'à nous-mêmes. Longtemps, il nous a manqué un mot pour définir ce  temps « gratuit » qui permet le loisir fécond. Aujourd'hui, on parle de l'Otium. Jean-Miguel Pire démocratise ce sujet pour le rendre accessible à tous, et pour qu'enfin, l'ennui, le silence, le vide, ne soient plus des gros mots, mais des mots essentiels à nos vies. Parce que le temps « gratuit » du loisir est le mieux à même de nous offrir la liberté nécessaire pour mener cette quête de liberté.Dans cet épisode, Jean-Miguel nous parle de la valeur du temps, de notre attention qui se perd, du temps libre qui n'est plus libre, et de l'oisiveté comme résistance contemporaine.J'espère que cette écoute t'invitera à ralentir pour laisser une place quotidienne à l'Otium.Belle écoute ! ☀️ ---Pour retrouver Telecoop, c'est ici !

February 16 2026 Monday Who Jesus Made You To Be / Week 14 Your Carnal Nature Gone #findoutwhoyouare My Vision My vision is to teach the world Who They Are In Jesus Christ their Lord and Savior! To Teach them what the Bible says about them and who they have been made to be in the promises of God's Word. This changed my life years ago and completely transformed me from a person full of doubt, fear and unbelief to a strong confident Christian that knows I can do anything through Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. And I'm determined to teach the world what God has taught and commissioned me to teach and that is His Word.  That commission takes me to jails and detention centers weekly along with other open doors at many churches and ministries that are wanting to teach these important truths to the world. My podcast goes out 6 days a week to help the people I am ministering to grow in the truths that God has taught me for many years now. This podcast is free to all that want to listen and grow strong in who God has made them to be in Christ Jesus their Lord and Savior. My Prayers For The World Ephesians 1:15-23 NLT  'Ever since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for God's people everywhere, I have not stopped thanking God for you. I pray for you constantly, asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God. I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance. I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God's power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God's right hand in the heavenly realms. Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the church. And the church is his body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself.'  Ephesians 3:14-21 NLT 'When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God's love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.'

Notes Matthew 4:1-11 Genesis 2:15-17; 3:1-7 Romans 5:12-19 Chapters 00:00 Introduction to the Pulpit Fiction Podcast 03:03 Exploring the Temptation of Jesus 12:00 Understanding the Nature of Satan 20:00 The Connection Between Baptism and Temptation 29:58 The Genesis Narrative: The Fall of Humanity 50:00 Paul's Perspective on Sin and Grace Summary In this episode of the Pulpit Fiction Podcast, hosts Robb McCoy and Eric Fistler explore the readings for the first Sunday of Lent, focusing on the temptation of Jesus in Matthew 4:1-11, the Genesis narrative of Adam and Eve, and Paul's reflections on sin and grace in Romans 5:12-19. The conversation delves into the nature of Satan, the significance of baptism, and the implications of human choice, shame, and the quest for knowledge. Through a thoughtful examination of these texts, the hosts encourage listeners to reflect on their own faith journeys and the complexities of biblical interpretation. Takeaways The first Sunday of Lent focuses on the temptation of Jesus. The narrative of Jesus' temptation is foundational for understanding his mission. Satan's role in the temptation narrative raises questions about the nature of evil. Baptism is a key theme that connects Jesus' identity to his temptations. The Genesis story of Adam and Eve introduces complex themes of choice and consequence. Shame and pain are significant outcomes of humanity's choices in the Genesis narrative. Paul's writings emphasize the relational aspect of sin and grace. The concept of original sin is debated in light of modern interpretations. Curiosity and intelligence can lead to both good and evil outcomes. The podcast encourages a deeper exploration of biblical texts and their implications.  

What do you want to be known for?  One thing we want to be known for is this podcast. 300 episodes in, we are committed to offering fresh perspectives and value as healing medicine for our listeners as well as conversations that help to heal the culture of medicine. When we ask the question, "What do we want to be known for?" it becomes a decision-making filter, a boundary-setting tool, and a compass for alignment—helping us lead with love and live closer to our true selves. In this episode, we explore: How "default identities" form in medicine (often unintentionally) The cost of being known for something that no longer, or never fit How to use the question "what I want to be known for" as a values-based filter Pearls of Wisdom Default identities form through repetition, people-pleasing, and conditioning—not always conscious choice. Naming what you don't want to be known for helps refine what matters. Values like authenticity, compassion, and love support intentional leadership. There's no urgency for a perfect answer—clarity can emerge slowly. Reflection Questions What are you currently known for? Did you choose this, or did it just happen? Where does your current identity feel true? Where does it feel heavy or misaligned? What's one small step you can take toward being known for what really matters to you?

Welcome to episode #1023 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). In an era where outrage travels faster than reflection, few accusations carry as much moral force as the charge of hypocrisy… and yet few concepts are as misunderstood. Michael Hallsworth is Chief Behavioral Scientist at the Behavioral Insights Team and a leading voice in behavioral economics, with academic appointments at the University of Pennsylvania and a career devoted to understanding how real people actually think and act in complex systems. His research spans public policy, organizational behavior and social judgment, examining how incentives, norms, and cognitive biases shape everything from government programs to corporate decision-making. In his new book, The Hypocrisy Trap - How Changing What We Criticize Can Improve Our Lives, Michael challenges the conventional belief that hypocrisy is simply a moral failing to be stamped out. Instead, he reframes it as a process… an inconsistency we dislike because we believe someone is gaining an unjust benefit… and argues that relentless accusations can backfire, breeding cynicism, polarization, and institutional decay. Drawing on evolutionary psychology, behavioral science, and contemporary case studies, he distinguishes between common standards hypocrisy and the more corrosive double standards that undermine fairness itself. He explores how social media amplifies moralistic aggression, how public signaling can both distort and reshape behavior, and why tolerating certain forms of inconsistency may be necessary for leadership and democratic compromise. Rather than excusing deception, Michael calls for sharper discernment: identifying which inconsistencies cause real harm and which reflect the unavoidable trade-offs of human life. Grounded in rigorous scholarship yet strikingly practical, his work urges greater self-reflection, empathy and intellectual humility in a culture quick to condemn.

This powerful message from Assistant Pastor Dillon Meadway on Sunday, February 15th 2026, takes us deep into the heart of why Jesus came to earth, exploring the profound disconnect between what the Jewish people expected and what God actually delivered. We journey through the prophetic scriptures of Isaiah and Micah that painted vivid pictures of a coming Messiah who would establish an everlasting kingdom of peace. Yet when that Messiah arrived, He came wrapped in swaddling clothes in a stable rather than silk and gold in a palace. The message challenges us to examine our own interpretations of God's truth—are we reading Scripture through the lens of what pleases us and serves our comfort, or are we genuinely seeking God's heart? The story of James, bound by addiction and brokenness, illustrates how the redemptive nature of truth transforms lives when we stop defending our position and surrender to Christ. We're reminded that God chose shepherds—the lowest in society—to receive the first announcement of the Messiah's birth, demonstrating that He is no respecter of persons. The most convicting aspect is the call to make Jesus more than an afterthought in our daily lives. Are we like Anna, who continually prayed and fasted in the temple, desperate to see God move? Or do we give Him only the leftovers of our time and attention? This message isn't just about understanding prophecy—it's about allowing the truth of who Jesus is to completely rewrite our story, just as it did for James.
