Reading by Deborah Volosin ---   2 Kings 14; 2 Chronicles 25   https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Kings%2014%3B%202%20Chronicles%2025&version=ESV&interface=print

In this captivating episode of Reading with Your Kids, host Jed Doherty explores the fascinating world of children's literature with two remarkable authors who are transforming how we introduce science and wonder to young readers. Martha Brockenbrough takes listeners on an incredible journey through her book "A Gift of Dust," revealing how Saharan dust travels across oceans, feeding microscopic organisms and ultimately nourishing the Amazon rainforest. Her passionate discussion highlights the interconnectedness of our planet, challenging traditional narratives about humans and nature. Susan Fletcher introduces her young adult novel "Sea Change," a science fiction reimagining of The Little Mermaid that explores cutting-edge genetic technologies. By incorporating real scientific concepts like CRISPR gene editing, Fletcher creates a compelling narrative that asks profound questions about human potential and ethical boundaries. Both authors share a common mission: sparking curiosity in young minds. They argue that education should be about process, not just results, and that storytelling is a powerful tool for helping children understand complex scientific concepts. Martha emphasizes how emotions and rational thinking are deeply interconnected, while Susan explores how emerging technologies might reshape human experiences. The conversation touches on broader themes of environmental awareness, technological innovation, and the importance of nurturing children's natural sense of wonder. From discussing ocean ecosystems to potential human genetic modifications, these authors demonstrate how non-fiction and speculative fiction can inspire the next generation of thinkers and explorers. Listeners will come away with a renewed appreciation for science, storytelling, and the incredible potential of young minds. Whether you're a parent, educator, or simply curious about the world, this episode offers fascinating insights into how we can engage children with the magic of scientific discovery.

In this episode of Christ the Center, Camden Bucey is joined once again by Lane Tipton and Carlton Wynne for a substantive follow-up to their earlier discussion of Keith Mathison's Toward a Reformed Apologetic: A Critique of the Thought of Cornelius Van Til. In the months since their first review, Dr. Mathison published a blog response, prompting deeper analysis and clarification. Together, Drs. Bucey, Tipton and Wynne explore key critiques Mathison levels against Van Til, especially the claims of epistemological idealism and the so-called “omniscience requirement” for true knowledge. The panel addresses these concerns with thoughtful care, highlighting Van Til's emphasis on covenantal epistemology, the distinction between psychological and ethical knowledge, and the non-neutrality of unbelieving thought. The episode also tackles Mathison's treatment of common grace and the antithesis—core concepts in Van Til's apologetic system. Does Van Til teach that unbelievers attain true knowledge by way of common grace? What is the actual function of common grace in a fallen world? And how does Van Til preserve the absolute ethical antithesis between belief and unbelief without denying shared external reality or meaningful engagement? This is a clarifying and edifying conversation for anyone interested in Reformed theology, presuppositional apologetics, or the legacy of Cornelius Van Til.

Everyone's still talking about Bob Vylan, and rightly so. A crowd full of westerners happily being led through a chant of “Death, death to the IDF” at the 2025 Glastonbury Festival was a historical landmark moment for the 21st century, and the group's persecution at the hands of western governments is once again highlighting the way our society's purported values of free thought and free expression go right out the window wherever Israel is concerned. But one thing that's not getting enough attention is the fact that many, many other acts also spoke out in support of Palestine at that same festival, and that the crowd was full of attendees waving Palestinian flags. Supporting Palestine and opposing Israel's genocidal atrocities is just what's cool now. This is a massive cultural development, because it means we are seeing the emergence of actual, meaningful rebellion in western counterculture for the first time arguably since the Vietnam War. The artists and their fans aren't just talking the talk of sticking it to the establishment anymore. Reading by Tim Foley.

In this heartwarming episode of Reading with Your Kids, we dive into the magical world of children's literature with two passionate authors who are transforming how kids think about reading, writing, and making a difference. Rae Marsh, author of the Love Maggie series, shares her incredible journey of creating books that truly resonate with children. Inspired by her own daughters, Marsh developed a chapter book and middle-grade novel series that captures the everyday experiences of kids. Her approach is simple yet powerful: encourage children to write about what they know and love. During school visits, Marsh lights up when discussing her mission to inspire young writers. She challenges students to look around their own lives for storytelling inspiration, showing them that their personal experiences are valuable and worth sharing. Her books follow Maggie, a character based on her daughter, navigating school, family, and personal growth. Joining the conversation is Phil Hall, author of "The Day the Children Save the World," who takes a slightly different approach. Hall's book focuses on pro-social behaviors, teaching children how their actions can positively impact the world around them. Through 26 alphabetical examples, he demonstrates how small acts of kindness can create meaningful connections. Both authors share a common goal: empowering children to understand their potential. They believe kids can make a significant difference through creativity, empathy, and intentional actions. Whether it's through storytelling or everyday kindness, these authors are helping shape the next generation of compassionate, confident individuals. Listeners will be inspired by the authors' passion, humor, and commitment to nurturing young minds. The episode offers a delightful glimpse into the world of children's literature and the incredible power of storytelling.

Susie's mom has been ill, and now she's on the mend, but she seems to have a bigger problem on her hands--namely an infestation of raccoons INSIDE her house. We talk about the doofus who sat his buns down on a Swaroski crystal chair at a museum and destroyed it. We discuss Barbara Walters, her ambition, and why she was kind of a jerk to women despite being a trailblazer at the same time. We debate whether we should start a "chichi chat," and why showing your body off to other women can be empowering. We hear about the lifelike dolls in Brazil that are making people mad, and how the women who collect (and play with) them are mocked, yet no one thinks its weird that men have similarly infantile and strange hobbies. And Susie lists several women who might be getting lots of credit for their business acumen when really their men are pulling the strings behind the scenes.3:06 - Peg's Raccoon Invasion8:17 - Identifying poop in the wild11:30 - Moron who sat on museum chair15:33 - reviewing the chari break video21:35 - If you like camping or have an RV, you should do this.23:39 - Barbara Walters Documentary "Tell Me Everything"27:50 - F**k you Barbara, and F**k you Ellen.29:53 - Hundreds of women meet for an online topless video "ChiChi" chat.

"Born in Asia and educated in Constantinople, he went into the army after completing his studies and became an officer. Reading the Holy Scriptures, he came upon the Saviour's words: 'If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell all thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come and follow Me' (Matt. 19:21). These words made such an impression on him that he sold and gave away all that he had, and went off to the desert. After long asceticism and striving for purification, he founded the community of the 'Wakeful Ones' (Acoemetae) with a special rule. According to this rule, the services in the church continued day and night in unbroken sequence. The brethren were divided into six groups, each having its appointed hours of day or night to go to church and take over the reading and singing from the previous group. He travelled a great deal over the East, bringing people to faith in Christ, disputing with heretics, working miracles by God's grace and growing old in the service of the Lord Jesus. He finished his earthly course in Constantinople in the year 430, where his relics revealed the miraculous power and glory with which God had glorified His holy servant." (Prologue)

In this captivating episode of Reading with Your Kids, host Jed Doherty explores the inspiring journeys of two remarkable children's book authors: Sarah Hwang and Sylvia Chen. Sarah Hwang shares her extraordinary experience of collaborating with the Dr. Seuss estate, transforming an archived sketch into "Gertrude Gish on a Dish on a Fish." As an immigrant child who learned English through picture books, Sarah brings a unique perspective to her storytelling, blending Dr. Seuss's iconic style with her own creative vision. Switching gears, the episode introduces Sylvia Chen and her heartwarming book "Tricky Chopsticks." Chen's story is equally fascinating - a science and math professional who discovered her passion for children's literature while trying to make math fun for her son. Her book follows Jenny Chow's hilarious journey of mastering chopsticks, offering a delightful glimpse into cultural experiences and family traditions. Both authors emphasize the importance of cultural representation in children's literature. Sarah's journey from wanting to be a pediatric dentist to becoming an illustrator, and Sylvia's transition from corporate work to storytelling, showcase the power of following one's creative passion. The episode offers invaluable insights for parents of creative children. Both Sarah and Sylvia stress the significance of parental support, encouragement, and believing in a child's unique talents. Their stories demonstrate how nurturing creativity can lead to unexpected and beautiful career paths. From Dr. Seuss-inspired rhymes to cultural challenges with chopsticks, this episode celebrates the magic of storytelling, the importance of representation, and the joy of children's literature. Listeners will be inspired by these authors' creativity, resilience, and commitment to bringing diverse stories to young readers.

Anyone who has had the misfortune of knowing a manipulative narcissist has seen all these patterns before. The self-centeredness. The hypocrisy. The horrific abuse, followed by collapsing into blubbering victimhood the second the abuse is called out. The aggressive efforts to control the narrative and frame all critics and rivals as evil monsters. It's a very familiar playbook. Reading by Tim Foley.

Russ Williams is a Welsh blogger & the author of Where the Folk; A Welsh Folklore Roadtrip from Caernarfon, Wales. After readings about the Cŵn Annwn [a mythological pack of otherworldly hunting hounds], we open our conversation on Welsh identity with the preservation of their Celtic language along with tidbits of history and local foods such as the lunch meal of the miners, the Welsh oggie. Jumping into Russ' book on the folkways and lore of Wales we hear about: the macabre horse skull costume known as the Mari Lwyd; a mermaid sex-slave; a tourist town banking on the legend of Gelert the Dog killed by his own master; and finally the epic Mabinogion, a collection of medieval Welsh mythology. For his own uncanny story, Russ takes us out of his homeland to the streets of Bangkok where he was outwitted by a fortuneteller. We bring it back around on more canine folklore and a travel tip for Eryri National Park, formerly known as Snowdonia. Reading from the Mabinogion translated by Lady Charlotte Guest. Check out Russ' book Where the Folk; A Welsh Folklore Roadtrip.

In this episode of Booked & Unfiltered, Michelle Glogovac and Stephanie Hockersmith dive into the unspoken pressure readers face in a world obsessed with speed and quantity. From the guilt of not finishing a book (DNF) to the blurred lines between genuine reviews and influencer content, they unpack how hustle culture is infiltrating the literary world. Michelle and Steph get real about balancing reading for work vs. reading for joy, why timing is everything when it comes to picking up the right book, and how mixing up your reading routine can reignite the spark. Plus, a fun wrap-up on dream book merch—because who wouldn't want a tote that says “Read The Damn Book”? What We're Talking About... The pressure to read can be overwhelming, especially with so many new releases. It's important to find books that resonate with you personally. Reading should be enjoyable, not a chore or competition. DNFing a book doesn't mean you failed; it means you're honoring your reading journey. Everyone has different preferences and opinions about books. Reading is a personal experience and should be tailored to individual needs. Book reviews should reflect genuine engagement with the material. Mixing up genres can enhance the reading experience and prevent burnout. It's okay to prioritize reading for pleasure over professional obligations. Merchandising ideas can stem from a love for books and reading.  Chapters 00:00 The Pressure to Read All the Books 06:02 The DNF Debate: When to Put a Book Down 11:47 Balancing Reading for Pleasure and Work 18:03 Mixing Up Your Reading Routine 23:56 The Future of Book Merchandising

Send us a textWhat does it mean to "read the room" effectively? Through the captivating biblical story of Joseph, we explore how to navigate various environments with wisdom and purpose. From familiar settings where we're vulnerable to executive boardrooms where power dynamics are at play, understanding how to present yourself appropriately can transform your life's trajectory.Joseph's journey provides a powerful framework for mastering different social contexts. In his family environment, he shared his dreams openly, only to face betrayal from his brothers. When thrown into a pit and sold into slavery, he demonstrated remarkable resilience by reading the situation correctly—not fighting back when resistance could cost him his life. In Potiphar's house, despite being given significant responsibility, he maintained his integrity when tempted. Even in prison, his ability to build relationships and interpret dreams positioned him for his eventual rise to power.The most compelling moment comes when Joseph stands before Pharaoh. Notice how he prepares himself—cleaning up, dressing appropriately, and presenting himself with confidence. Yet his confidence isn't self-centered; it's rooted in something greater. "It is not in me," he tells Pharaoh, "but God will give you an answer of peace." This humility in the presence of power demonstrates true executive presence.What makes Joseph's story so relevant today is his ability to maintain integrity across dramatically different circumstances. When he finally reunites with the brothers who betrayed him, he chooses reconciliation over revenge, understanding that true power isn't about vengeance but bringing peace to troubled situations.Are you struggling to navigate complex social or professional environments? Remember that each "room" requires different skills, but your core values should remain consistent. The challenges you face today might be preparing you for greater responsibilities tomorrow.
