That simple idea sits at the heart of our conversation with betrayal trauma specialist and DCA-certified ADR divorce coach, Christina Riley, as we explore why representation isn't a tagline—it's a performance driver in divorce coaching and mediation. Clients don't arrive as blank slates; they bring history, stress responses, and a relationship to systems that can either inflame or calm conflict. When cultural understanding is present from the start, the nervous system settles and the coaching room turns from explanation into strategy.We talk candidly about the access gap at the entry point: why many people in underrepresented communities delay support not because they don't need it, but because they're unsure the space will be safe or relevant. That delay has costs—escalated conflict, higher expenses, and harder-to-repair ruptures. Christina shares how Black clients intentionally seek coaches who share lived experience to reduce emotional labor, build early trust, and gain the clarity needed for mediation, parenting plans, and settlement conversations. The payoff is practical and immediate: clearer goals, stronger boundaries, and a sharper distinction between what genuinely matters and what's merely emotionally loud.We also examine the profession's responsibility. Neutrality doesn't demand sameness. Competence includes cultural literacy, rigorous standards, and ethical practice that adapts to reality without diluting quality. Training organizations like Divorce Coaches Academy can widen the pipeline while maintaining high bars through mentorship, community, and honest conversations about barriers. Lived experience is not a liability; paired with strong training, it's a lens that improves outcomes across ADR.If you care about early intervention, reduced conflict, and durable agreements, this conversation is an invitation to build inclusion thoughtfully and on purpose. Listen, share with someone who needs to hear it, and subscribe to stay part of a community shaping a more effective, accessible divorce coaching field.Connect with Christina at Christina Riley Coaching here: christinariley.comNot yet a DCA Certified Divorce Coach?

In Part II of this two-part series, guest host Esaa Mohammad Sabti Samarah, PhD, LMSW reunites with Dr. Siham Elkassem, Dr. Bryn King, Dr. Nuha Dwaikat-Shaer, and doctoral candidate Amilah Baksh to move beyond naming harm and toward a deeper examination of responsibility. This episode turns a critical lens on how the social work profession responds, or fails to respond, to anti-Palestinian, anti-Arab, and anti-Muslim racisms, with particular attention to the ways calls for “neutrality” shape research, teaching, and professional practice.The conversation interrogates neutrality as it appears in social work academia, especially in relation to empiricism and claims of objectivity. The panel introduces and critically examines the concept of “weepy universalism,” a term they coin for social workers in their forthcoming work to describe how generalized expressions of sympathy can obscure power, flatten difference, and ultimately reproduce harm rather than challenge it.The episode also brings these debates down from theory to practice, exploring what they mean for social workers on the ground, particularly those working with youth and communities most directly impacted by these forms of racism. The series closes with a collective call to action, challenging the profession to move beyond symbolic gestures and toward principled, sustained solidarity with Palestinians, Arabs, and Muslims, as part of broader struggles for justice and liberation.This episode invites listeners to reckon with complicity, resist comfort, and reimagine what ethical practice demands in moments of profound injustice.#BeyondNeutrality #EthicalSocialWork #SolidarityNotSilence #WeepyUniversalism #YouthJustice #DecolonizeSocialWork #JusticeInActionLinks to Published WorksDwaikat-Shaer, N., Baksh, A., Elkassem, S., & King, B.

Send us a textWhat if the joy of the manger makes sense only in the shadow of the cross? We open Luke 2:34 and hear a hard truth with hope inside it: the arrival of Jesus reveals hearts, lifting the humble and humbling the proud. Across an honest, scripture‑anchored conversation, we push past seasonal sentiment and trace a single throughline—Christ was born to die and rise, not to prop up our comfort or politics, but to rescue us from sin.Together we unpack Isaiah 53 and Hebrews 10 to show that the Incarnation was not a divine band‑aid. The eternal Son took a prepared body and stepped into history with purpose. Along the way, we clear up popular myths, contrast Barabbas with Jesus as two rival “saviors,” and confront the way many still seek a conquering hero without a crucified Lord. Neutrality dissolves when you meet him: he forces a response. Trust your own case before a holy God, or cling to the Mediator who never loses one of his sheep.We also look around at our moment—rampant deconstruction, casual unbelief, and the ache for control—and name it for what it is: a crisis that Scripture anticipated. Yet there's hope in the remnant refined, the people who call on his name and are kept. Even his name is mission: “he shall save his people from their sins.” Christmas, then, is more than birth; it's the opening act of a rescue written before the foundation of the world. If that reframes your holiday, you're in the right place.Listen, share with someone who needs clarity over comfort, and leave a review so others can find the show.

Episode Description Can unprocessed emotions sabotage your manifestation? Neuroscience reveals why positive thinking alone never works. Most manifestation advice keeps you stuck. Affirmations, vision boards, and "good vibes only" ignore the critical factor: your nervous system runs programs you can't see—and those hidden emotional loops block everything you're trying to create. Christy Whitman, New York Times bestselling author of The Flow Factor with 25+ years of subconscious reprogramming experience, exposes the truth: You cannot attract abundance while trapped in survival mode. This is the science of why your prefrontal cortex—your creative, manifesting brain—shuts down when unprocessed trauma activates your stress response. Your brain doesn't distinguish between what you consciously want and what your subconscious emotional imprints keep recreating. That's why you attract the same toxic relationships, financial patterns, and dead-end situations—no matter how hard you visualize. Christy reveals the biological mechanism behind "stuckness" and introduces The 90-Second Shift—a somatic technique that rewires your nervous system, clearing emotional blocks that sabotage manifestation. Discover: • Why self-compassion (not self-criticism) is the gateway to real manifestation • The neuroscience of "bushwhacking"—how single traumatic moments create energetic vortexes attracting painful experiences • Why focusing on your soul's essence (not surface desires) unlocks true abundance • The Three Buckets of Vibration: Lack, Neutrality, and Freedom—and how to shift between them • How unprocessed emotions fill your "container" so gratitude and joy have nowhere to land • The Law of Polarity: why contrast and discomfort are your greatest manifestation teachers • Breaking generational trauma patterns keeping families stuck in scarcity cycles • The myth of "spiritual bypassing"—why you must feel emotion to release it • The somatic touch protocol activating your vagus nerve within seconds Here's the truth: You can't pour abundance into a nervous system flooded with unprocessed fear. Until you clear the emotional debris creating low-frequency patterns, you'll keep manifesting from lack, no matter what your affirmations say. If you've been doing "all the manifestation work"—journaling, visualizing, affirming—but still hitting walls, this episode reveals the missing piece your spiritual teachers never measured.

Peace Matters - A Podcast on Contemporary Geopolitics and International Relations
In this episode of Peace Matters, we explore Austria's neutrality—its legal foundations, historical origins, and evolving role in today's geopolitical landscape. What does neutrality entail, and how is it perceived by Austrian society and political elites? We discuss public support for neutrality and examine whether Austria's stance is compatible with its EU membership—not just legally, but politically. As the EU faces challenges to integration and foreign policy unity, we ask whether Austria's neutrality is an asset or an obstacle and how other EU countries view Austria's position.Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on Austria's neutrality and its future in Europe.Guests:Ralph Janik teaches international law at Sigmund Freud Private University Vienna, the University of Vienna, Andrassy University Budapest, and Universität der Bundeswehr München. His research focuses on armed conflicts, human rights, and the interplay of international law and international relations. He studied law and political science at the University of Vienna and the Universidad Alcalá de Henares (Madrid), followed by an LL.M. in European and International Law at the University of Amsterdam.Christoph Schwarz, MSSc., is a Senior Research Fellow at the Austrian Institute for European and Security Policy. His work explores key questions of Austrian and European foreign and security policy, with a particular emphasis on the evolving role of neutrality in the 21st century. His current focus lies in analysing how Austria's neutral status is being affected by European integration and shifting dynamics in international affairs.Moderation:Marylia Hushcha, Researcher and Project Manager at the IIPThe episode was recorded on 17 December 2025 with the support of the Future Fund of the Republic of Austria.
DeFi has always promised trust without intermediaries, but as the ecosystem matures, that promise is being stress-tested by hacks, institutional risk limits, and regulatory pressure.To unpack whether DeFi can scale without sacrificing neutrality or permissionlessness, Katherine Kirkpatrick Bos, General Counsel of StarkWare, and Jessi Brooks, General Counsel & Chief Compliance Officer at Ribbit Capital, joined the podcast to discuss their paper “Trust Without Intermediaries: A Programmable Risk Management Framework for the Future.”The paper sparked controversy across the DeFi community, with critics arguing it could open the door to protocol-level compliance or re-intermediation. In this episode, Katherine and Jessi explain that the paper proposes something different.Timestamps: ➡️ 01:31 — Why write this paper?➡️ 07:55 — Institutional DeFi and why one-size-fits-all doesn't work➡️ 09:43 — Compliance as a commercial choice, not a mandate➡️ 11:38 — Risk scoring in DeFi➡️ 15:37 — Technical de-risking➡️ 18:23 — Optional evolution➡️ 20:59 — Not protocol-level compliance➡️ 25:49 — Opt-in DeFi➡️ 30:44 — Lessons from the backlash and public debate& much more.

Switzerland's Military Space Strategy Explained - with Colonel GS Ludovic MonneratIn this episode of Space Cafe Radio, host Torsten Kriening talks with Ludovic Monnerat about Switzerland's comprehensive military space concept (Gesamtkonzeption Weltraum) and its implications for Swiss security and European cooperation. They discuss the distinction between data and intelligence, the evolution of Switzerland's space strategy, and the critical role of space-based assets in national defense. Col Monnerat explains why Switzerland, a traditionally neutral country, has been shaping its strategic thinking and military doctrine in response to global space developments. He provides insights into Switzerland's collaborations with other nations and commercial entities, the development of autonomous space capabilities, and the balance between neutrality and the necessity of defensive measures in space.Guest:Colonel GS Ludovic Monnerat is the designated Commander of the recently created Swiss Space Command. Col GS Monnerat launched this initiative 10 years ago with the aim of establishing sovereign and dual operational capabilities in space. He was previously in charge of medium- and long-term planning at the Joint Operations Command and responsible for operational training. Prior to that, he was head of the special operations section of the Joint Operations Command's staff for 8 years.Space Café Radio brings you talks, interviews, and reports from the team of SpaceWatchers while out on the road.

The appearance of drones of unknown origin in Dublin last week around the time of Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy's visit again highlighted the security challenges of the present day and Ireland's lack of capability to act in its own defence. Neutrality remains a popular policy, as again demonstrated recently by the election of Catherine Connolly as president. That popularity does not answer the question of how much Ireland should invest in its own defence. Ireland diverges from other neutral European countries in our low defence spending and reliance on others for protection, information and security. But against those calling for bigger defence budgets, others warn of militarisation and point out the money could be better spent elsewhere. So does being a voice for peace preclude greater defence spending, or is defence spending a crucial part of a viable neutrality? On today's podcast Hugh is joined by Naomi O'Leary to pick apart the elements of Ireland's approach to defence and neutrality, how we compare to others and what questions will arise as Ireland comes under increasing pressure in Europe to boost capabilities. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Today I'm joined by Elizabeth Ralph for a conversation about money in a way most people never hear it discussed... one that shows why becoming an investor has nothing to do with how much you have and everything to do with who you're willing to be. We talk about waiting vs creating, dropping old stories, moving out of linear thinking, breaking your own patterns, and exploring money neutrality. If you're ready to see yourself as an investor and feel supported by money instead of controlled by it, you're going to love this conversation. Join Elizabeth's Spiritual Investor Club.

In his first interview since his release, former hostage Alon Ohel called the International Committee of the Red Cross a “disgraceful organization.” His anger reflects a general bitterness among Israelis who believe ICRC failed to ensure the Israeli hostages’ received humanitarian treatment in captivity and their silence in the face of Hamas’ refusal to grant them access. On the Haaretz Podcast, the head of ICRC’s Israel sub-delegation, Yuval Arie Nevo, admitted in an interview that the hostility on the part of the Israeli public was “totally understandable” given the group’s persistent but ultimately “unsuccessful” efforts to gain access to the hostages to assess their condition and offer medical and humanitarian assistance. While acknowledging the failures, “we are very proud of our work,” said Nevo, referring to the implementation of the transfer of the hostages from Hamas to Israel under the cease-fire agreement in October, coordinated with the release and exchange of Palestinian prisoners – and ICRC’s role in returning the remains of slain hostages as well. The “reputation crisis” the ICRC is suffering in Israel, he said, is due in large part to the constraints of the organization’s commitment to “impartiality” and the use of “bilateral confidential dialogue,” or refraining from taking sides in public statements. Without such a policy, he argued, ICRC would not be able to effectively conduct humanitarian operations and return prisoners and hostages anywhere in the world. Still, “I know it is a source of great frustration in the Israeli public,” he said. “Neutrality is not a sexy choice to make.” Read more: Sexual Assault, Starvation, Stitches Without Anesthesia: Alon Ohel Details Hamas Captivity Opinion | For the Hostages in Gaza, the Red Cross Is Neutral.

Neutrality. We tend to like that. It's, well, non-controversial. But you can't follow Jesus if you're sitting on the fence. His is a radical grace and a radical truth. This sermon (also released as a podcast episode) is a summary of my teaching series on 1-3 John called "For the love of God."
Ireland's Exposed Western Flank and Europe's Ukraine Stance — Judy Dempsey — Dempsey examines how Ireland's steadfast neutrality and limited defense capabilities leave its critical undersea communication cables vulnerable to Russian eavesdropping and potential sabotage. Despite maintaining budget surpluses, Ireland prioritizes social issues, including housing, over defense investments. Dempsey notes that European powers view the U.S.-Russia peace proposal for Ukraine with skepticism, characterizing it as a "Russian wish list," while German leadership remains publicly committed to sustained Ukrainian military support. 1896 COUNTY KILDARE

There are several rules that should be followed when going to war: Germany should never fight wars against the entire world Don't invade Russia in the Winter. Never fight a land war in Asia. There is also one other rule that should be added to that list: Don't count on Switzerland as an ally. For over two centuries, Switzerland has remained staunchly neutral, even when wars were being fought just over its borders.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Jessica Talisman, founder of Contextually and creator of the Ontology Pipeline, about the deep connections between knowledge management, library science, and the emerging world of AI systems. Together they explore how controlled vocabularies, ontologies, and metadata shape meaning for both humans and machines, why librarianship has lessons for modern tech, and how cultural context influences what we call “knowledge.” Jessica also discusses the rise of AI librarians, the problem of “AI slop,” and the need for collaborative, human-centered knowledge ecosystems. You can learn more about her work at Ontology Pipeline and find her writing and talks on LinkedIn.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop welcomes Jessica Talisman to discuss Contextually, ontologies, and how controlled vocabularies ground scalable systems.05:00 They compare philosophy's ontology with information science, linking meaning, categorization, and sense-making for humans and machines.10:00 Jessica explains why SQL and Postgres can't capture knowledge complexity and how neuro-symbolic systems add context and interoperability.15:00 The talk turns to library science's split from big data in the 1990s, metadata schemas, and the FAIR principles of findability and reuse.20:00 They discuss neutrality, bias in corporate vocabularies, and why “touching grass” matters for reconciling internal and external meanings.25:00 Conversation shifts to interpretability, cultural context, and how Western categorical thinking differs from China's contextual knowledge.30:00 Jessica introduces process knowledge, documentation habits, and the danger of outsourcing how-to understanding.35:00 They explore knowledge as habit, the tension between break-things culture and library design thinking, and early AI experiments.40:00 Libraries' strategic use of AI, metadata precision, and the emerging role of AI librarians take focus.45:00 Stewart connects data labeling, Surge AI, and the economics of good data with Jessica's call for better knowledge architectures.50:00 They unpack content lifecycle, provenance, and user context as the backbone of knowledge ecosystems.55:00 The talk closes on automation limits, human-in-the-loop design, and Jessica's vision for collaborative consulting through Contextually.Key InsightsOntology is about meaning, not just data structure. Jessica Talisman reframes ontology from a philosophical abstraction into a practical tool for knowledge management—defining how things relate and what they mean within systems. She explains that without clear categories and shared definitions, organizations can't scale or communicate effectively, either with people or with machines.Controlled vocabularies are the foundation of AI literacy. Jessica emphasizes that building a controlled vocabulary is the simplest and most powerful way to disambiguate meaning for AI. Machines, like people, need context to interpret language, and consistent terminology prevents the “hallucinations” that occur when systems lack semantic grounding.Library science predicted today's knowledge crisis. Stewart and Jessica trace how, in the 1990s, tech went down the path of “big data” while librarians quietly built systems of metadata, ontologies, and standards like schema.org. Today's AI challenges—interoperability, reliability, and information overload—mirror problems library science has been solving for decades.Knowledge is culturally shaped. Drawing from Patrick Lambe's work, Jessica notes that Western knowledge systems are category-driven, while Chinese systems emphasize context. This cultural distinction explains why global AI models often miss nuance or moral voice when trained on limited datasets.Process knowledge is disappearing. The West has outsourced its “how-to” knowledge—what Jessica calls process knowledge—to other countries. Without documentation habits, we risk losing the embodied know-how that underpins manufacturing, engineering, and even creative work.Automation cannot replace critical thinking. Jessica warns against treating AI as “room service.” Automation can support, but not substitute, human judgment. Her own experience with a contract error generated by an AI tool underscores the importance of review, reflection, and accountability in human–machine collaboration.Collaborative consulting builds knowledge resilience. Through her consultancy, Contextually, Jessica advocates for “teaching through doing”—helping teams build their own ontologies and vocabularies rather than outsourcing them. Sustainable knowledge systems, she argues, depend on shared understanding, not just good technology.

Dr. Francisco Javier Bonilla is a historian of Latin America specializing in environmental history, infrastructure, and urban development. His research focuses on Panama and the wider Caribbean, examining how water, cities, and U.S. empire have shaped everyday life across the region. He received his PhD in History from Carnegie Mellon University and is currently turning his dissertation, Downstream from the Locks: The Technopolitics of Water in Panama's Urban Borderlands, into a book. If the US wanted to seize the Panama Canal, it would be illegal due to its status of neutrality. Much like the USA, Panama has a burgeoning inequality that breaks along racial and social lines. Wealthy elites and corporations are purchasing media outlets. Due to pressure of the US and Corporate Media a vigorous discussion seldom occurs re: the future of the Canal and extra-judicial bombings off the coast of Venezuela, with little or no proof of guilt.

Sarah Longwell, publisher of The Bulwark and founder of Republican Voters Against Trump, discusses why neutrality no longer works in political journalism. Longwell argues that legacy media's “studied impartiality” has become a liability in a polarized, low-trust world—and that audiences now crave conviction over detachment. She explains how The Bulwark grew out of the ashes of The Weekly Standard to become a mission-driven newsroom defending liberal democracy, why she sees “no conflict, no interest” as the new media ethos, and how transparency about values builds more trust than feigned objectivity. The conversation covers the transformation from Never Trump to pro-democracy brand, Tim Miller's breakout as the face of its YouTube expansion, and why The Bulwark doesn't consider itself "a Substack."

As leaders, we all face moments when someone's words or actions cut deep. Maybe it's betrayal, criticism, or a costly mistake. But when justice isn't possible, Leadership becomes about something deeper: how we process it, learn from it, and move forward. Justice and accountability are not the same. Justice is external; it's about consequences and what happens to them. Accountability is internal; it's about reclaiming your power, energy, and integrity, regardless of what they did. You won't always get justice. But you can always choose accountability. That's the moment you take your power back. When there's no way to make it right, when justice isn't possible, accountability looks like this. You set boundaries: stop giving the situation oxygen. You practice neutrality: train your nervous system so that their name or memory no longer triggers an emotional response. You witness yourself.: tell the truth without spin or self-gaslighting. You cut the cord: stop replaying the story and feeding the energy leak. Letting go isn't weakness. It's strength. Forgiveness and compassion don't mean excusing bad behavior. They mean refusing to let it define you. I call this clean compassion; seeing the humanity in someone without justifying the harm. You can let go with love and boundaries, not bitterness. And that's Leadership in motion: choosing peace over poison when justice isn't possible. When you can discuss painful experiences without harboring anger, you model genuine Leadership. That's what builds trust with others and with yourself. What you'll learn • The real difference between justice and accountability • How boundaries and neutrality create inner accountability • How to stop rumination and reclaim your energy • Why clean compassion strengthens Leadership Reflect Forward Questions 1. Am I seeking justice or accountability? 2. Am I feeding the story or cutting the cord? 3. What boundary or choice will help me reclaim my energy right now? Key Takeaways 1. Justice is external. Accountability is internal. You can always choose your response. 2. Boundaries create accountability. Remove access and stop giving the situation oxygen. 3. Neutrality equals freedom. When the memory no longer spikes your emotions, you've reclaimed your power. 4. Energy management is Leadership. Rumination drains creativity and clarity. 5. Clean compassion is strength. Let go with love, not anger. Mic Drop Moments • “Letting go isn't weakness. It's one of the most powerful leadership skills you can master.” • “You don't need someone else to make it right in order for you to rise.” • “Boundaries aren't walls; they are declarations of self-respect.” • “When you release the need for justice, you make space for peace.” Connect with Kerry Visit my website, kerrysiggins.com, to explore my book, The Ownership Mindset, and get more leadership resources.

“Some time ago, I realized that there was such a thing for me as experiencing my patients as being friends, but they were psychoanalytic friends. It was a psychoanalytic friendship that was quite unique and unlike any other friendship. I think that's what people are talking about when they write about psychoanalytic love. It's not love like any other kind of relationship, because the psychoanalytic relationship is so unique. And I feel the same way about psychoanalytic parenting. It's like it's close to mentoring, but it's different because the structure of the relationship is different than from a mentor or an esteemed and loved teacher. It really is helping somebody with the whole process of development and helping them grow, mature, and become more comfortable with themselves and to know themselves better. That seems to me the essence of parenting, and I don't think we should feel defensive about thinking about it that way. That doesn't seem to me that it's my counter-transference in needing to be a good mother, a good father, a good parent to my patients.” Episode Description: We discuss the challenge of transmitting the experiential knowledge of the dynamic therapies to new generations. David's book on therapeutic aphorisms demonstrates a number of key elements of this unique relationship - symbolic meanings in symptoms, 'psychotherapeutic parenting', the simultaneous use of medications and working with the unlikable patient to name but a few of the topics he brings forward. He describes the challenges of the negative therapeutic reaction, how "transference reactions are the creative soul of the patient's story" and what it was like for him to admit to a patient that he lied to her. We close with his reflecting on the meaning to him of retiring from full time practice, noting "I haven't retired my psychoanalytic mind." Our Guest: David Joseph, MD is a supervising and training analyst at the Washington Baltimore Center for Psychoanalysis where he served as chair of the board and director of the Institute Council (education committee). For many years he was the Director of Residency Training at St. Elizabeths Hospital in Washington, DC. He has a long-standing interest in ethics and has written and spoken about a number of ethical issues in the practice of psychoanalysis. He closed his clinical practice several years ago, at the age of 82. In June 2025, his book: Listening for a Lifetime: The Artful Science of Psychotherapy, was published by Mission Point Press.

Podcast Episode Show Notes:Episode Title: Engaging in Politics as a Christian Man: Dos & Don'tsEpisode: 137 | Worldview Legacy TodayHost: Joel SettecaseWhat does it mean to engage in politics as a Christian man—not just as a voter, but as a disciple of Jesus Christ, called to represent God's truth in every sphere? In this thought-provoking episode, Joel Settecase cuts through the noise and offers a biblically grounded framework for political engagement that avoids two dangerous ditches: compromise and idolatry.Joel explains why Christian men must not retreat from the political arena, nor bow to it. He gives practical wisdom on how to think and speak politically without becoming just another partisan echo or culture warrior. Using examples from Scripture, church history, and today's headlines, Joel offers clear “dos and don'ts” for men who want to be faithful to Christ and effective in shaping their communities.You'll hear how the Apostle Paul modeled gospel-first engagement, why neutrality is a myth, and how to spot the traps of “red religion” and “blue religion.” If you've felt confused, compromised, or just plain exhausted by the chaos of political discourse—this episode will sharpen your discernment and strengthen your spine.In this episode, you'll learn:Why politics is inescapably religious—and why that mattersHow Christian men can be politically engaged without being consumedThe biblical basis for civic involvement (and where to draw the line)The danger of worshiping power, personalities, or partiesHow to prioritize God's kingdom over man's systemsHow to be salt and light in an age of outrageWhy compromise isn't the answer—and neither is culture warA Christ-centered path forward in public lifeKey Scriptures: Romans 13, Matthew 22:21, Psalm 2, 2 Corinthians 10:3–5, John 18:36, 1 Timothy 2:1–4, Ephesians 6:12Join the Hammer & Anvil Society:This is the discipleship brotherhood for Christian men who are done with passivity and ready to lead with boldness.

Look around. A million lives aborted. Marriage redefined. Truth itself put on trial in our schools and boardrooms. Ever wonder how we got here? It didn't happen because the enemy was so loud. It happened because the Church was so quiet. Today, we're calling out the sin that has muzzled the Church for decades: silence.Culture screams its gospel of sin from every screen, platform, and institution. Meanwhile, too many Christians have been told to sit down, be quiet, and “go along to get along.” The result? A nation in moral free-fall.But silence is not humility. It's not respect. It's complicity. When we know the Truth and refuse to speak it, we aren't being neutral—we're siding with the enemy.The time for quiet, private faith is over. When the world is screaming lies, will you whisper, or will you roar with the truth of the gospel of Christ?Buckle up. This episode is a declaration of war on the sin of silence."If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them." – James 4:17Episode Highlights:08:24 - Abortion didn't become normalized because pro-abortion activists outnumber Christians—because they don't. It became normalized because too many Christians decided to stay home, keep quiet and not make waves... Neutrality ain't kindness. Neutrality ain't wisdom. Instead, neutrality is cowardice dressed up in church clothes.23:06 - Satan isn't scared of Christians who keep their faith private, but he's terrified of Christians who boldly and unapologetically go public with their faith... Satan doesn't mind you attending church quietly, reading your Bible silently, or praying in your head. What he fears is when you open your mouth and someone else's eternity changes because of it.34:17 - Silence is not just about avoiding discomfort here, it's about consigning souls to darkness forever. And this is why silence is not a small issue. It's not a personality quirk. It's not a matter of preference. It's literally, truly, in every sense of the word, life or death, heaven or hell. When Christians choose silence, the cost is measured in eternal destinies.Connect with Paul M. NeubergerWebsite
Read Online“Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.” Luke 11:23These words are embedded within several powerful teachings of Jesus, but, in many ways, this single sentence can stand alone as an important Christian truth. Specifically, it tells us that we cannot be neutral in our position regarding Jesus and all that He has taught us. This is an important message in the world today.Today, there seems to be a growing secular value that we might call “neutrality.” We are told by many in the world that we must accept any morality, any lifestyle, any choice that others make. And though it is true that we must always love and accept every person and treat them with the utmost dignity and respect, it is not true that we should be neutral to the choices and secular values that some choose to live and express. Sadly, when we do speak the full truth, especially the many moral truths our Lord has revealed, we are often labeled as judgmental. But this is not the truth.This quote above from today's Gospel makes it clear that we cannot remain indifferent to the teachings of our Lord and still remain in His good graces. In fact, Jesus makes it clear that the opposite is true. He says that if we are not with Him, meaning, if we do not accept all that He has revealed, then we are, in fact, against Him. Being neutral on matters of faith and morality is not actually being neutral at all. It's a choice that some make that has the clear effect of separating them from Jesus.For example, regarding matters of faith, if someone were to say, “I do not believe in the Eucharist,” then they are, in fact, rejecting God. And though it is not our duty to be their judge, it is our duty to acknowledge that they have expressed a belief contrary to the truth. They are in error, and if they persist in this error, then they do separate themselves from God. That's what Jesus is saying.The same is true regarding morality. There are many examples in the moral life that are becoming more and more blatant in their opposition to our Lord's teaching. Thus, we must remind ourselves that when we reject a moral teaching given to us by our Lord, we reject Jesus Himself.Jesus goes even further when He says that “whoever does not gather with me scatters.” In other words, it's not enough to simply personally believe all that Jesus taught, we must also teach it to others. If we do not and if we, instead, offer a false form of “acceptance” of another's error, then we are actually working against Jesus. We all have a moral duty to actively promote the truths of the Gospel given to us by our Lord. Reflect, today, upon how fully you are “with” our Lord and “gather” with Him. Do you fully accept all that He has taught and also seek to gather many others for the Kingdom of God? If you do not see yourself actively believing in and participating in the mission of our Lord, then heed these words of Jesus and allow them to gently but firmly challenge you, so that you will more fully work to build up God's Kingdom in your own heart and in the world all around you. My glorious King, You desire to build up Your Kingdom in my life and, through me, in the lives of others. Give me the grace and courage I need to fully accept all that You have taught me and to actively become an instrument of Your grace and truth in the world. May I be with You in all things, dear Lord, and gather many into Your loving arms of grace.

In this week's solo pod romp, I rip into propaganda's favorite trick: the false dichotomy. From the engineered clash between Indigenous and Hispanic culture in Santa Fe, to the broader Left/Right puppet show, I expose how billionaire foundations and activist networks bankroll division while posing as agents of justice. I call out the hypocrisy of philanthrocapitalists funding “equity” with fortunes made off exploitation, and make the case for reclaiming neutrality, nuance, and inner authority as acts of cultural rebellion.Watch on Odysee.

What if payment chains are the “AWS moment for money”? Simon Taylor — fintech veteran, ex-Barclays crypto lead, and author of FinTech Brainfood — joins Bankless to map the convergence of fintech and crypto. From stablecoins serving as the Trojan horse for tokenisation to Tempo's push for a payments chain, Simon explains why finance is on the brink of its biggest infrastructure shift since Visa. We cover the rise of payments L1s, the regulatory roulette of stablecoins, and whether neutrality and permissionlessness can survive in corporate-led networks. Plus, Simon breaks down the differences between stablecoins, tokenized deposits, and CBDCs — and explains why the future of finance is already being rebuilt on-chain. ---

In this conversation, Eugenia Cheng discusses the importance of making math accessible and engaging for everyone, particularly those who have been discouraged by traditional education methods. She emphasizes the intersection of math and art, the dangers of oversimplifying complex issues with numbers, and the need for a more nuanced understanding of equality and fairness in society. Cheng also highlights the significance of mentorship and the impact of gender dynamics in mathematics, advocating for a more inclusive approach to learning and appreciating math as a creative and thoughtful discipline.Takeaways Many people are put off math due to early education experiences. Math and art should not be pitted against each other. Creativity is essential in STEM fields. Numbers can oversimplify complex realities. Understanding inequality requires recognizing its nuances. Context matters in mathematical reasoning. We often forget important details in data interpretation. Math can be appreciated without full understanding.
