"I genuinely feel that those of us writing books need to remember that we are writing them simply because we feel the desperate need to write that particular thing. And unless I feel that way, I shouldn't be writing it because it's not for the financial benefit. It is not because it gives me more time to do things with other people. It doesn't matter how many books or lengthy features you write, it's all kind of a painful process. So you have to do it because you're really invested in the things that you are focused on," says Maggie Messitt, author of Newspaper and The Rainy Season.Maggie is a professor and a journalist and an author. She's was the founding national director for Report for America and currently is the Norman Eberly professor of practice in journalism.

Welcome to Day 2594 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2589 – Wisdom Nuggets – Old Testament Orientation – Staying Loyal to God: Poetry, Theodicy, Salvation, and Afterlife – Psalm 119:9-16 Putnam Church Message – 03/23/2025 Sermon Series: Old Testament Orientation Message 11: Staying Loyal to God: Poetry, Theodicy, Salvation, Afterlife   Last week, we continued our Old Testament Orientation series and explored the Books of Wisdom: Knowing God and Being Loyal to Him. These books are my favorite genre in the Old Testament. We explored from an ancient Israelite worldview. This week, we will investigate the concept of Staying Loyal to God as we consider Poetry, Theodicy (understanding the ways of God), Salvation, and Afterlife. These concepts allow us to view the Old Testament from an Ancient Israelite worldview. Opening Prayer Heavenly Father, Creator of all things, we humbly gather in Your presence today to open our hearts and minds to the richness of Your Word. God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, You have spoken to us through stories, poems, wisdom, and prophecy, all revealing Your character and guiding us into deeper loyalty toward You. Help us today, O Lord, to understand the poetry that reflects our deepest feelings, to wrestle honestly with God's ways with questions of suffering and justice, to grasp the nature of Salvation as You have revealed it through Your faithful servants, and to trust in Your promises regarding life beyond death. Enlighten us by Your Spirit. We humbly come before You to dive deeply into Your timeless truths. Speak to us clearly, gracious God, and mold our lives according to Your Word. In Your Holy Name, we pray, Amen. Introduction Today, we gather to explore poetry, theodicy (the ways of God), what is Salvation, and the afterlife from the eyes and hearts of our ancient Israelite brothers and sisters. More than 50% of the Old Testament is written in Hebrew poetry, and yet it does not reveal itself in that manner using our English translations. Imagine yourselves living in a time when poetry was the primary language of your heart's deepest cries,/ when wrestling with God's justice was your constant reality,/ when Salvation hinged on loyalty rather than ritual,/ and when the afterlife was a shadowy unknown./ Let us journey through these truths, with Psalm 119:9-16 as our anchor. Psalm 119:9-16 (NLT) “How can a young person stay pure? By obeying your word. I have tried hard to find you—don't let me wander from your commands. I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. I praise you, O Lord; teach me your decrees. I have recited aloud all the regulations you have given us. I have rejoiced in your laws as much as in riches. I will study your commandments and reflect on your ways. I will delight in your decrees and not forget your word.” Main Points with Object Lessons, Stories, and Illustrations Poetry: Speaking Honestly to God Ancient Israelites used poetry as a heartfelt dialogue with Yahweh, full of honesty and passion. Like David in Psalm 69, their words weren't always polite but always genuine. ...

X-rays are powerful. Moving through objects undetected, revealing the body as a tryptic of skin, tissue, and bone. X-rays gave rise to a transparent world and the belief that transparency conveys truth. It stands to reason, then, that our relationship with X-rays would be a complicated one of fear and fascination, acceptance and resistance, confusion and curiosity.  In X-Ray (Bloomsbury, 2024), Nicole Lobdell explores when, where, and how we use X-rays, what meanings we give them, what metaphors we make out of them, and why, despite our fears, we're still fascinated with them. In doing so, she draws from a variety of fields, including the history of medicine, science and technology studies, literature, art, material culture, film, comics, gender studies, architecture, and industrial design.

Mollie Hawkins discusses her brilliant addition to the Object Lessons series: SAXOPHONE. a gorgeous blend of history, cultural analysis, and deeply moving personal reflection.

The pub is an English institution. Yet its history has been obscured by myth and nostalgia. In Pub (Bloomsbury, 2025) a new addition to the Object Lessons series, Dr. Philip Howell takes the public house as an object, or rather as a series of objects: he takes the pub apart and examines its constituent elements, from pub signs to the bar staff to the calling of “time.” But Pub also explores the hidden features of the pub, such as corporate control, cultural acceptance and exclusion, and the role of the pub in communities. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== NOTAS DE ELENAMaterial complementario de la escuela Sabática para adultosNarrado por: Patty CuyanDesde: California, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchDOMINGO 12 DE ENEROMÁS VALIOSO DE LO QUE IMAGINASLevántate y ve a tu Padre. Él te encontrará muy lejos. Si das siquiera un paso hacia Él en arrepentimiento, Él se apresurará a envolverte en Sus brazos de infinito amor. Su oído está abierto al clamor del alma contrita. La primera búsqueda de Dios que hace el corazón es conocida por Él. . . . Incluso antes de que se pronuncie la oración o se manifieste el anhelo del corazón, la gracia de Cristo sale al encuentro de la gracia que está obrando en el alma humana.Tu Padre celestial te quitará las vestiduras manchadas por el pecado. . . . Así Dios te vestirá con "las vestiduras de la salvación", y te cubrirá con "el manto de la justicia". Isaías 61:10. . . Él te llevará a Su casa de banquetes, y Su estandarte sobre ti será el amor. (Cantar de los Cantares 2:4.) "Si anduvieres en mis caminos", declara, "te daré lugar para que andes entre los que están a mi lado", incluso entre los santos ángeles que rodean su trono (Zacarías 3:7). (Lecciones objetivas de Cristo, págs. 206, 207. El hombre que intenta guardar los mandamientos de Dios por un mero sentido de obligación -porque se le exige que lo haga- nunca entrará en el gozo de la obediencia. No obedece. Cuando los requisitos de Dios se consideran una carga porque son contrarios a la inclinación humana, podemos saber que esa vida no es una vida cristiana. La verdadera obediencia es la manifestación de un principio interior. Brota del amor a la justicia, del amor a la ley de Dios. La esencia de toda justicia es la lealtad a nuestro Redentor. Esto nos llevará a hacer lo correcto porque es correcto -Porque hacer lo recto agrada a Dios.-Christ's Object Lessons, p. 97. Cuando el padre sale a reñir con [su hijo mayor], se revelan el orgullo y la malignidad de su naturaleza. Considera su propia vida en la casa paterna como una ronda de servicios no correspondidos. . . . Cuando debería haber encontrado un gozo duradero en la presencia de su padre, su mente ha descansado en el beneficio que obtendría de su vida circunspecta. Sus palabras muestran por eso ha renunciado a los placeres del pecado. . . . . Sin embargo, el padre lo trata con ternura. "Hijo", le dice, "siempre estás conmigo, y todo lo que tengo es tuyo". Durante todos estos años de vida marginada de tu hermano, ¿no has tenido el privilegio de estar conmigo? . . . ¿Se dio cuenta el hermano mayor de su propio espíritu mezquino e ingrato? ¿Se dio cuenta de que, aunque su hermano había obrado mal, seguía siendo su hermano? ¿Se arrepintió el hermano mayor de sus celos y de su dureza de corazón? Sobre esto, Cristo guardó silencio. Porque la parábola seguía su curso, y correspondía a sus oyentes determinar cuál el desenlace.

Each object lesson uses a unique activity—a spiritual gift exchange, a Kahoot quiz, and a pinecone-to-pine tree craft—to illustrate key scriptural concepts. The lessons draw heavily on modern general conference talks to enrich understanding and provide contemporary application of Moroni's teachings.Week 51 Object Lessons1: “Deny Not the Gifts of God”: Spiritual Gift Exchange2: “I Exhort You to Remember These Things”: End of Year Kahoot Challenge3: “Come Unto Christ and Be Perfected in Him;”: Pinecone to Pine Tree CraftCHAPTERS=========00:00:13 CREATIVE INTRODUCTION00:02:44 OBJECT LESSON 100:07:17 OBJECT LESSON 200:09:38 OBJECT LESSON 300:14:17 WRAP UPLINKS=====ETSY Printables: https://meckmom.etsy.comWEB: https://www.gather.meckmom.comINSTAGRAM: Instagram @meckmomlifePODCAST: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST DISCLAIMER=================================This podcast represents my own thoughts and opinions.

Darwin called the Galápagos archipelago “a little world within itself,” unaffected by humans and set on its own evolutionary path – strange, diverse, and unique. Islands are repositories of unique cultures and ways of living, seed banks built up in relative isolation. Island is an archipelago of ideas, drawing from research and first-hand experience living, working, and travelling to islands as far afield as Madeira and Cape Verde, Orkney and Svalbard, the Aran Islands and the Gulf Islands, Hong Kong and Manhattan. Islands have long been viewed as both paradise and prison – we project onto them our deepest desires for freedom and escape, but also our greatest fears of forced isolation. This book asks: what can islands teach us about living sustainably, being alone or coexisting with others, coping with uncertainty, and making do? Island (Bloomsbury, 2024) by Dr. Julian Hanna, part of the Object Lessons series, explores these and other questions and ideas, but is constructed above all from the stories and experiences gathered during a lifetime of island hopping. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Darwin called the Galápagos archipelago “a little world within itself,” unaffected by humans and set on its own evolutionary path – strange, diverse, and unique. Islands are repositories of unique cultures and ways of living, seed banks built up in relative isolation. Island is an archipelago of ideas, drawing from research and first-hand experience living, working, and travelling to islands as far afield as Madeira and Cape Verde, Orkney and Svalbard, the Aran Islands and the Gulf Islands, Hong Kong and Manhattan. Islands have long been viewed as both paradise and prison – we project onto them our deepest desires for freedom and escape, but also our greatest fears of forced isolation.
