Jesus Knows Me This I Love_Andrew ThompsonJohn 1:43-50 NIV43 The next day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. Finding Philip, he said to him, “Follow me.” 44 Philip, like Andrew and Peter, was from the town of Bethsaida. 45 Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law, and about whom the prophets also wrote—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.” 46 “Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?” Nathanael asked.“Come and see,” said Philip. 47 When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, “Here truly is an Israelite in whom there is no deceit.” 48 “How do you know me?” Nathanael asked.Jesus answered, “I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.” 49 Then Nathanael declared, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the king of Israel.” 50 Jesus said, “You believe because I told you I saw you under the fig tree. You will see greater things than that.”
Over sommeren har Politiken lagt spalter til slaget om litteraturkritikken. Diskussionen kulminerede sidste mandag i live arrangementet 'Hvad skal vi med litteraturkritikken?', hvor forfatteren Mikkel Thykier, med et panel af fem kritikere skulle diskutere nemlig det spørgsmål. I denne uge binder vi sløjfe på debatten, derfor har vi inviteret kritikerne Tue Andersen Nexø og Lars Bukdahl i studiet. Vært: Jes Stein PedersenMusik: Peter Kristian SejersbølI redaktionen: Sille Westphal, Hanne Budtz-Jørgensen og Kathrine Wadsholt
Facing attacks from within and without, men today seem like a far cry from who they were created to be: “the image and glory of God” (1 Cor 11:7). Men are now 30% more likely than women to drop out of school, 25% less likely to attend college, 4 times more likely to be diagnosed with attention-deficit disorders, and more than 3 times more likely to commit violent crimes. Meanwhile, movies and TV shows portray men as short-tempered, incompetent morons who care only about sex, sports, and “man caves.” The gospel is the only thing that can reverse the ever-widening gap between the lives of men and God’s design for men. By his death and resurrection Jesus has created a new day for men, calling them out of sin and selfishness into a life of glory and grace. “Today is the day of salvation,” God says (2 Cor 6:2), which means today is the day God begins to make us into who he designed us to be: “the image and glory of God.”

Italian may be the language of romance, but English is the language of obesity. Need proof? If you line up all the countries around the world based on their obesity rates, you'll see that English is the dominant language of six of the top nine most overweight countries.These nations are located all over the globe, with different cultures, histories, and relative wealth. But what they all have in common is their language:How do we explain this odd accumulation of obesity rates clustered around the calorie-free factor of language?Hypothetically, it could be that the lexicon itself drives the problem. Maybe we just have more words for it, like Eskimos have 50 words for snow. Maybe we have so many terms and phrases for “swing through the drive-thru," “supersize that," and “pig out” that people are encouraged to do those things, like some kind of subliminal suggestion.But of course, English is almost certainly reflecting the problem rather than driving it. American idioms around food are not the same as those in Ireland or New Zealand. We can definitely rule this explanation out.A second interpretation is that countries like the United States, that are more business-friendly, are less likely to regulate additive sugars and artificial ingredients in food products. Choking grocery shelves with these unhealthy products might contribute to higher obesity rates, particularly among our children.However, Ireland and England are both on the list, and these countries are in vastly more socialized political and economic systems. Scratch that explanation off the list.A third thought is that there's an educational gradient to obesity: more education is associated with less obesity. Although there's some support for this idea within the U.S. anyway, it’s hard to say that this entire list of English-speaking countries is all less committed to education than the other thinner countries.Socioeconomics also falls short. There is some idea that those with less money have a harder time finding good food. However, the U.S. has one of the highest standards of living in the world.So much for all that.So What Makes English the Language of Obesity?It may all come down to the fact that the most obese country of all English-speaking countries—the United States—also has the biggest voice in the world. It’s like having someone with an oversize influence, who gets seen more and thus emulated more.The same could be said across those countries that speak English, as the American image, mystique, and visibility can influence the cultural norms. One culture influencing another would be fine if it were only that the people in other countries were just wearing bluejeans, incorporating blues music, utilizing social media technology, and so.But we have other cultural behaviors that contribute to the highest obesity rates on Earth. When those activities become incorporated right along with T-shirts, Elvis, and Facebook, language becomes the vector of that transmission. So English does not cause the effect you see, but it acts like a facilitator.It's the window through which the fume of our unhealthy habits escape to the world. It’s the convenient access point for all who speak it. And the outsize influence of American allure is what moves dietary norms in our direction rather than theirs.In other words: the more other countries look to us, the more they look like us.If you live in one of these other countries, remember the cultural habits you had when you were thinner and healthier: fewer processed food products, drive-thrus, and habits like eating on the run. Reincorporate more traditional habits before adopting the eating norms of a country in which two-thirds of the people are overweight, obese, and morbidly obese.Follow @willclower!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");For more information: Click here to visit Will Clower's website.
