Today we look at Jesus and His disciples. Jesus is perfect. Disciples are not. How is that supposed to work? In fact, in Mark 9, there are at least 5 shortcomings of the disciples. They are not Pharisees. Their hearts are good. But their walk was imperfect. Let's look at that list and appreciate how gracious and kind Jesus is! But there is also a call to growth. He is patient but He also has expectations. I hope you can look at this list today and pick some things you want to grow in out of gratitude to Jesus. Asserting instead of Listening with Patience (Mark 9:1-8)Failing instead of Succeeding through Faith (9:14-29)Missing instead of Understanding His Plan (9:9-11, 30-32)Disputing instead of Serving with Humility (9:33-37)Opposing instead of Receiving in Fellowship (9:38-41)May we be a people who grow through this to greater faith:Listening with PatienceSucceeding through FaithUnderstanding His WillHumbly ServingReceiving in Fellowship

Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership with Ruth Haley Barton
This season we are focusing on justice as an aspect of spiritual formation and we believe Lent to be the perfect season to explore this connection. Using A Just Passion: A Six-Week Lenten Journey, and the lectionary, we will look at various aspects of justice, its importance to God and why the modern church has often regrettably failed to live out God's call to “do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with the Lord.” Ruth is joined by Gary Haugen on today's episode. Gary Haugen has spent most of his career fighting injustice at the systemic level as a lawyer and founder of International Justice Mission. Ruth and Gary discuss the moment Gary realized he'd grown up his whole life in the church never once hearing a message about how much God cared about justice. They talk about the ways in which the poor are chronically vulnerable to violence, how the church often isn't doing work that addresses this issue, and how, at IJM, attention to their own spiritual formation is crucial in sustaining their justice work. Lectionary scripture for this week: 1 Samuel 16:1-13 Psalm 23 Ephesians 5:8-14 John 9:1-41 Mentioned in this episode: Just Courage by Gary Haugen The Locust Effect by Gary Haugen Gary Alan Haugen is an American attorney who is the Founder, CEO, and former President of International Justice Mission, a global organization that protects the poor from violence throughout the developing world. Gary has been recognized by the U.S. State Department as a Trafficking in Persons “Hero” – the highest honor given by the U.S. government for anti-slavery leadership. He is the author of several books, including Good News About Injustice (Intervarsity Press) and, most recently, The Locust Effect: Why the End of Poverty Requires the End of Violence (Oxford University Press).

Today we're discussing a recent study many news outlets have reported on, which looks at the children of same-sex couples and concludes that these children fare the same or better than children of heterosexual couples. We start with some thoughts on "gay marriage" in general from a biblical standpoint, which would hold accurate even if this study were valid. Then we break down the study analysis, which was funded by China (the CCP), and its methodology, which has more than a few glaring issues, and outcomes. We share some studies that have been correctly done, which show that the opposite seems to be true – children of heterosexual couples indeed do fare better by many different metrics. We also share a big show update coming soon! --- Timecodes: (00:43) Show update!

The series moves to Shea Stadium for a marquee matchup between two future Hall-of-Famers. Tom 'Terrific' Seaver (19 - 10 2.08 290 IP) gets the ball for the Mets, looking to continue his excellent career to this point. Opposing him will be Jim 'Catfish' Hunter (21 - 5 3.34 256 IP), the country boy turned perennial 20 game winner, who is coming off of a series clinching shutout against Baltimore. Bert Campaneris and Joe Rudi, the top of Oakland's order, will attempt to spark the A's offense against a tough righty, while Wayne Garrett and Rusty Staub aim to provide some thump for New York.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Counting-down vs. counting-up coherence, published by Tsvi Benson-Tilsen on February 27, 2023 on The AI Alignment Forum. [Metadata: crossposted from. First completed 25 October 2022.] Counting-down coherence is the coherence of a mind viewed as the absence of deviation downward in capability from ideal, perfectly efficient agency: the utility left on the table, the waste, the exploitability. Counting-up coherence is the coherence of a mind viewed as the deviation upward in capability from a rock: the elements of the mind, and how they combine to perform tasks. What determines the effects of a mind? Supranormally capable minds can have large effects. To control those effects, we'd have to understand what determines the effects of a mind. Pre-theoretically, we have the idea of "values", "aims", "wants". The more capable a mind is, the more it's that case that what the mind wants, is what will happen in the world; so the mind's wants, its values, determine the mind's effect on the world. A more precise way of describing the situation is: "Coherent decisions imply consistent utilities". A mind like that is incorrigible: if it knows it will eventually be more competent than any other mind at pushing the world towards high-utility possibilities, then it does not defer to any other mind. So to understand how a mind can be corrigible, some assumptions about minds and their values may have to be loosened. The question remains, what are values? That is, what determines the effects that a mind has on the world, besides what the mind is capable of doing or understanding? This essay does not address this question, but instead describes two complementary standpoints from which to view the behavior of a mind insofar as it has effects. Counting-down coherence Counting-down coherence is the coherence of a mind viewed as the absence of deviation downward in capability from ideal, perfectly efficient agency: the utility left on the table, the waste, the exploitability. Counting-down coherence could also be called anti-waste coherence, since it has a flavor of avoiding visible waste, or universal coherence, since it has a flavor of tracking how much a mind everywhere conforms to certain patterns of behavior. Some overlapping ways of describing counting-down incoherence: Exploitable, Dutch bookable, pumpable for resources. That is, someone could make a set of trades with the mind that leaves the mind worse off, and could do so repeatedly to pump the mind for resources. See Garrabrant induction. VNM violating. Choosing between different outcomes, or different probabilities of different outcomes, in a way that doesn't satisfy the Von Neumann–Morgenstern axioms, leaves a mind open to being exploited by Dutch books. See related LessWrong posts. Doesn't maximize expected utility. A mind that satisfies the VNM axioms behaves as though it maximizes the expected value of a fixed utility function over atomic (not probabilistic) outcomes. So deviating from that policy exposes a mind to Dutch books. Missed opportunities. Leaving possible gains on the table; failing to pick up a $20 bill lying on the sidewalk. Opposing pushes. Working at cross-purposes to oneself; starting to do X one day, and then undoing X the next day; pushing and pulling on the door handle at the same time. Internal conflict. At war with oneself; having elements of oneself that try to harm each other or interfere with each other's functioning. Inconsistent beliefs, non-Bayesian beliefs. Sometimes acting as though X and sometimes acting as though not-X, where X is something that is either true or false. Or some more complicated inconsistency, or more generally failing to act as though one has a Bayesian belief state and belief revisions. Any of these also open one up to being Dutch booked. Inefficient allocation. Choosing to inve...

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 38 One of the most notorious names almost nobody in the West remembers is Trofim Lysenko. His horrific ideas about agriculture and biology, derived mostly from crackpot Marxist Socialist and Soviet Theory, led to the starvation and deaths of tens of millions of people in the Soviet Union and Communist China. Opposing or challenging his ideas was a one-way ticket to cancellation, reeducation, or destruction. Lysenkoism, therefore, is the enforced application of an ideological lens that distorts science, and thanks to Woke Marxism and the "Sustainability" agenda, we're facing our own looming (and unfolding) Lysenkoist catastrophe right now throughout Western nations. Host James Lindsay breaks it down for you in this episode of New Discourses Bullets. Join him to understand an important facet of what's happening around you and the history behind it.

In 1861, just as the Civil War began, the leaders of the Confederacy soon realized they were outmatched when it came to military might, especially in terms of Naval power. (For example, the U.S. Navy had 42 commissioned ships as of the start of the year—the Confederacy had 1.) And the Northern states had much more industrial might in order to get more ships built. With such a stark advantage, the Union was able to form a naval blockade that could choke the Confederacy militarily, and also economically.The leaders of the Confederacy realized that the only way to outfit a strong navy was to receive support from aboard—namely, from the still-neutral Great Britain. Neutral though its leaders claimed to be, public sentiment in Britain at the time leaned toward the Confederacy. The Southern leaders dispatched the charming and devious Captain James Bulloch to Liverpool to lead the way to clandestinely acquire a cutting-edge fleet of ships (and weapons) that would break President Lincoln's blockade of Confederate ports, sink Northern merchant vessels, and drown the U.S. Navy's mightiest ships at sea. The profits from gunrunning and smuggling cotton—Dixie's notorious “white gold”—would finance the scheme.Opposing him was the American consul named Thomas Dudley, a resolute Quaker lawyer and abolitionist. Knowing that the state of the Union was at stake, he was determined to stop Bulloch by any means necessary in a spy-versus-spy game of move and countermove, gambit and sacrifice, intrigue and betrayal. If Dudley failed, Britain would likely ally with the South and imperil a Northern victory.The battleground for these spy games was the Dickensian port of Liverpool, whose dockyards built more ships each year than the rest of the world combined, whose warehouses stored more cotton than anywhere else on earth, and whose merchant princes, said one observer, were “addicted to Southern proclivities, foreign slave trade, and domestic bribery.”To tell this story is today's guest Alexander Rose, author of “The Lion and the Fox: Two Rival Spies and the Secret Plot to Build a Confederate Navy.”

Rhode Island Oral Surgeon Continues Battling Gov't Retaliation over Opposing Vaccine Mandate The State of Rhode Island unlawfully prevented Dr. Stephen Skoly from practicing critically needed dental care in retaliation for his public opposition to the temporary emergency regulation mandating that “all health care workers and health care providers be vaccinated against COVID- 19.” Statements by and behavior of state officials make clear that administrative actions against Dr. Skoly were taken precisely because he publicly voiced his opposition and would not have been taken but for Dr. Skoly's speech. NCLA has filed a response to the government's Motion to Dismiss Skoly v. McKee, et al., in the U.S. District Court for the District of Rhode Island. Mark talks through Dr. Skoly's opposition to summary judgment in Skoly v. Mckee. Humphrey's Executor in FTC v. PPO NCLA has filed a Motion to Dismiss the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) lawsuit against Precision Patient Outcomes, Inc. (PPO), a California-based company which develops precision medical solutions for burn and wound care, scar management, and skin-renewing technologies, and its CEO, Margrett Lewis. Among other things, NCLA argues the Supreme Court's blessing the FTC of yesteryear in Humphrey's Executor does not imply that the Commission newly vested with truly executive powers would be similarly endorsed. When Humphrey's Executor was decided, the FTC did not possess the power to initiate suits or to seek any penalties. This core executive power was only added to the FTC's authority in the 1970s. The Supreme Court itself has recognized that its 1935 “conclusion that the FTC did not exercise executive power has not withstood the test of time." Vec discusses Humphrey's Executor in FTC v. PPO.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, Associate Professor of History, Tyler Fleming (University of Louisville) discusses his book Opposing Apartheid on Stage: King Kong the Musical (University of Rochester Press 2020). "In 1959, King Kong, an interracial jazz opera, swept across South Africa and became a countrywide phenomenon. Its performances sold out, its LP record was widely heard, and its cast became recognized celebrities. Featuring an African composer, cast, and orchestra but predominantly white directors and producers, this interracial production seemed completely distinct from any other theatrical production in the country's history. Despite being staged over a decade after the enacting of apartheid, the interracial collaboration met widespread acclaim that bridged South Africa's racial, political, ethnic, and class fissures." https://boydellandbrewer.com/9781580469852/opposing-apartheid-on-stage/

Pastor Tyrel Bramwell of St. Mark Lutheran-Ferndale CA
**Contains graphic details of sexual violence against women and children** As a young boy, Nobel Peace Prize laureate Denis Mukwege witnessed his father, a Pentecostal pastor, praying for a sick child. It made him want to help people who suffer – not as a pastor, despite his own Christian faith, but as a doctor. Fast forward to 1999, and Denis Mukwege founded Panzi hospital in Bukavu, a city in the Democratic Republic of Congo, near the Rwandan border. There, over the last 20 years, he has treated tens of thousands of women with gynaecological trauma, caused by the extreme sexual violence which has become a weapon of war in this volatile part of the world. Rich in coveted mineral resources, the area is the scene of a large-scale conflict involving countless armed rebel groups. But Dr Mukwege was not just helping women; he was also speaking out against the cruelty of this conflict. This led to several attempts on his life. Fearing for his family, Denis Mukwege went into exile, but the women who saw him as their only hope launched a big campaign to persuade him to return. Mike Wooldridge talks to Denis Mukwege about his life's work and how his Christian faith has motivated him to disregard his own safety and bring new hope to women who, without his help, would be looking ahead to a life of ostracism and pain. If you have been affected by sexual abuse or violence, details of help and support in the UK is available at bbc.co.uk/actionline.

Today's Sinister Six offering is certain to melt your heart...if it doesn't put you to sleep first. In The Incredible Melting Man, an astronaut (named Steve, just Steve) returns to Earth as the lone survivor of a disastrous mission to Saturn. But Steve is feeling a bit under the weather. Being exposed to solar radiation filtered through the rings of Saturn (we think) has turned him into a melting man! Steve embarks on slow-paced rampage, consuming as many people as possible in order to survive extraterrestrial ailment. Opposing him is the very unpleasant Dr. Ted Nelson, the very hungry General Perry, and a variety of very unlikeable townspeople.

This episode was submitted to David & Elkins College of West Virginia for their Addiction Studies and Counseling program. Episode 100 is a huge milestone for us! We are incredibly honored to have been behind the mic for 100 episodes! Thank you for all of our supporters that have brought us this far!In this episode we unravel the phenomenon that is addiction. Why a spiritual solution? If there is one cure for addiction; it is pain. The most painful experiences in life can become the most Holy. "How did you get here?" Accepting absolute defeat. Demanding to feel good is the surest way to fail. Opposing our own God given DNA. The spiritual life is not void of suffering. Accepting the struggles in a life of recovery. Moving from being "not okay" into a state of "okayness". https://www.instagram.com/fromthegravepodcast/https://fromthegraveco.com

Kirk Cameron's new book As You Grow has been met with hostility in some public libraries. However, Kirk Cameron and the movement of Christians in some communities has reopened public readings of Kirk's book that celebrates God's design in finding identity. Kirk and his friends are brave, but how to parents instill a sense of courage and compassion to face dark times? That's what Dr. Kathy and Melissa Hannigan discuss today on Facing the Dark. They explore how parents can not only model but can instill a sense of purpose, duty, and strength to face tough things.

The 20 Republicans who are opposing Kevin McCarthy are getting so much flack for it. Many Republican commentators are demonizing them. Rep. Dan Crenshaw went as far as to call these 20 Republicans ‘terrorists'. Mike takes all your calls to get your perspective on the House Speakership debate. Also, Director of International Affairs for the City of David Foundation, Ze'ev Orenstein, joins Mike to discuss the historic biblical site where Jesus 'healed the blind' fully opening for the first time in 2,000 years.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kevin McCarthy failed to secure the Speaker role in three separate votes yesterday. Today is another day where voting will take place. There are now at least 19 Republicans who are opposing Kevin McCarthy to become the next House Speaker. What do you make of this ‘chaos'?

Life shouldn't need to be defended. Opposing the killing of an innocent child is the easiest, most common-sense position you can take. But we live in a fallen world, and abortion ends more lives worldwide than all other causes of death...COMBINED. We've covered the best pro-life argument you can make on The 40 Days for Life Podcast before...and other effective arguments that explain why abortion is wrong. We even wrote a book on how to defend life when abortion comes up in conversation. But on this episode--the first episode available by both audio and video--we share the most compelling case you can make for life.
Lawmakers unveiled a $1.7 trillion spending bill in the early hours of Tuesday. Congress must pass this massive bill or a temporary funding bill to prevent a government shutdown this week. House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy says he'll whip a no vote, calling it a “monstrosity.” What's in it? A newly elected congresswoman says she doesn't have any social media apps on her personal devices, as she vows to go after Big Tech once she takes the office. A vaccine mandate was struck down in federal court, after the mandate was applied to federal contractors since September 2021. As McCarthy is working to shore up support from within his own party to win the speaker's gavel, we'll hear from a congressman who's challenging McCarthy. Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) shares with us his vision to change the direction in Washington. There are new rules for pollutants emitted from large vehicles, and the U.S. Postal Service is on board with that. It plans to have mostly electric delivery trucks by 2028. Fewer new homes are being constructed; home constructions have dropped since October. ⭕️ Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

When Douglas Stilgoe, AKA "Nemo the Mormon" on YouTube, no longer felt he could publicly sustain Mormonism's top leadership of apostles & prophets due to multiple acts of demonstrable dishonesty, he lost one of Mormonism's highest privileges: the ability to attend the Temple. For Mormons, Temple worship goes FAR beyond religious ceremony. It is the gate by which believing Mormons qualify for Exaltation, the highest level of Heaven & privilege in the after-life according to Mormon theology, and by which marriages & family relationships are "sealed" together for eternity. Thus, losing the privilege of Temple worship doesn't just risk an individual's OWN eternal reward, but also puts one's eternal marriage and other family ties in jeopardy, some even to the extent of believing that faithful spouses and children will be "reassigned" to a faithful stranger who will replace the unbelieving spouse or parent in Heaven. It is also synonymous with personal "worthiness", so any Mormons not permitted inside are often thought to be committing or in the process of repenting from egregious sins, such as adultery. Mormons who are not considered "worthy" to perform Temple ordinances themselves are also barred from even attending ordinances - like weddings - of any friends and family that take place there, another significant source of pain and alienation for some. Naturally, Doug found it problematic that for believing Mormons, such important things as Exaltation and Eternal Family can be held hostage and denied for something as simple as refusing to agree to sustain leaders who, by virtue of a supposedly secret ordinance known as the "Second Anointing," are exempt from any accountability towards members of the Church, even for bold, deliberate acts of harm and dishonesty. ...or are they? This episode documents attempts made by Doug (Nemo) to get to the bottom of whether Mormon doctrines & practices meant to instill accountability from its earliest days and scripture are still applicable today, or whether they've become mere ritual, devoid of any meaningful significance other than virtue-signaling conformity and a continued commitment to blind obedience. As a squeaky wheel unable to be assuaged or silenced by local leadership, Nemo surprises everyone (including himself) when he manages to bypass the usual gatekeepers and break through the glass ceiling separating Mormonism's apostles and prophets from the rank-and-file, successfully garnering the attention of none other than second highest-ranking apostle and next in line to become prophet, Dallin H. Oaks. How did it go? Tune it to find out! Nemo the Mormon YouTube Channel "Evidence of Dishonesty" - Nemo's document (coming soon!)

The popular caricature of libertarianism involves our alleged belief in "rugged individualism," and "I don't need help from anybody," etc. Opposing collectivism doesn't mean opposing all groupings of people. And in a world as hostile as this one, we'd darn well better band together in groups dedicated to achieving our goals despite the political system under which we live.
