Everyone says that Genesis 2 contradicts Genesis 1! Could everyone be wrong? Join Paul and Todd as they discuss the alleged problems with Genesis 2 in this latest episode in our Creationism 101 series. From the name of God to the creation of birds, Todd and Paul take on eight contradictions and find most of them wanting. The detailed creation of Adam is definitely different from the creation week, but rumors of contradiction are greatly exaggerated.Materials mentioned in this episodeCameron, N.M. de S. 1980.

I had the joy of meeting Heather Ashle in person at a Family Night hosted by Children's Hospital of Michigan a couple months ago. Her energy lit up the room as she spoke—honestly, nervously, and beautifully, about what it means to live with cystic fibrosis (CF). It was her first time speaking at a CF event, and you could feel how much it meant to her.Heather grew up finding refuge in fantasy, books filled with dragons, magic, and faraway worlds. While CF demanded hours of treatment each day, her imagination offered something far more powerful: freedom. “Fantasy wasn't just fun—it was survival. In worlds of dragons and magic, I could breathe easier.” — Heather AshleNow, with two English degrees from Oakland University, Heather continues crafting those very stories. She writes with the hope of giving others what fantasy once gave her: wonder, empathy, and a temporary escape from the weight of reality.You can find Heather wherever imagination thrives—on the page, on stage, at Ren Fests, or in magical corners of our community like Witches' Bazaars. She is pure magic.Fantasy Author of the Realm Riders Series www.heatherashle.comFor links to Heathers author social media and where her books are available: www.heatherashle.com/linktree Publishing via HB Ink, LLC www.hbinkllc.com  And https://www.facebook.com/HBInkLLC/Also: https://www.instagram.com/hbinkpublisher/ Please like, subscribe, and comment on our podcasts!Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Watch our podcasts on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laurabonnell1136/featuredThanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/en

We often hear the claim that creationism is a recent theological error, but there have been young age creationists for most of the history of the church. In this episode, Todd and Paul chat with Warren Johns about the Scriptural Geologists, a group of creationists active during the earliest growth of the science of geology. Back before geologists were geologists, there were still creationists holding the faith!

Dean Dayna Bowen Matthew, legal scholar, author, and Dean of The George Washington University Law School, delivers a compelling examination of how bias, both implicit and structural, continues to shape health outcomes in America. Drawing on decades of work at the intersection of civil rights and healthcare, she explains how inequities in housing, education, and employment are compounded by biases in medical decision-making, access, and policy enforcement.From the legacy of redlining to the subtle ways patient care can be influenced by race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, Dean Matthew makes the case that health equity cannot be achieved without confronting bias head-on. This episode is a call to action for healthcare providers, policymakers, and community leaders to recognize their role in dismantling these barriers and to commit to systemic change. As our Season 3 opener, it sets the tone for a series dedicated to breaking down inequity at its roots.-AT L.A.S.T.Website: WeAreATLast.orgEmail: adam.cady@weareatlast.orgSupport: https://secure.givelively.org/donate/athletic-trainers-leveraging-activism-for-social-transformationLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/at-l-a-s-tInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/atlastpod35% OFF Thorne Products compliments of http://raincrosshp.com/ go to https://thor.ne/Ch2Uc20% OFF Xcelerated Recovery products: Code Rain20: https://xrscience.org/-Artwork by Jason Eisenberg Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dots_and_squares/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasoneisenberg00/-Music by Willie B the Ichiban DonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ichibandon/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/william-brown-25945b168/-Production / Engineering / Editing / by Gerson SandovalWebsite: www.davyrover.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/davy.rover/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gersonsandovalengineer/Music Credits: Davy Rover, West Coast Bop-GuestWebsite: https://www.law.gwu.edu/dayna-bowen-matthewLinkedIn:

What if a scan could do more than show you a picture, what if it could tell you a story about what's happening inside a child's body, in real time?That's exactly what Dr. Chris Flask is working to make possible.Dr. Flask is a Professor of Radiology, Biomedical Engineering, and Pediatrics at Case Western Reserve University and University Hospitals of Cleveland. He's at the forefront of an exciting transformation in medical imaging, one that could change the way we care for children with rare genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis (CF) and polycystic kidney disease (PKD).“Our goal is to turn imaging, instead of just image creation, into data,” says Dr. Flask. “We want to create numbers. So we can say, this is what's going on in the lungs. And when we put these patients on modulator therapies, we can see a 10 percent improvement in their lung disease. And similar responses in the pancreas, the liver, and the gut. That's our goal—quantifying it through this fingerprinting methodology.”This approach, MRI fingerprinting, is a revolutionary leap forward. Developed over the past decade at Case Western's MRI center, it's fast, accurate, and most importantly for kids: it requires no sedation, no radiation, and no contrast agents. Each image slice takes just 15 seconds, making it safer and more accessible for the most vulnerable patients.Dr. Flask's work is supported by the NIH, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, and an extraordinary 42-year collaboration with Siemens MRI. Together, they're paving the way for multi-center clinical trials using this technology to better understand disease progression and therapy outcomes.This episode is all about the intersection of science, innovation, and compassion, and the powerful impact of data-driven care.We're honored to welcome Dr. Flask to the show, although he prefers we call him Chris. You won't want to miss this deep dive into what's next for pediatric imaging and precision medicine.Share with anyone who's passionate about medical innovation, pediatric health, or rare disease research.

“I always say that singing and performing was as much a part of my DNA as cystic fibrosis.” Julia RaeFrom the moment Julia Rae could speak, she was singing, and from the moment she could dream, she was already imagining a bigger stage. As her mother fondly recalls, at just two years old, Julia was watching Barney on TV and asked, “How do I get in there and do that with him?” That instinct, that pull toward performance, was never just about the spotlight. For Julia Rae, the stage became her sanctuary, and later, her platform for purpose.Diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at birth, Julia's life has never followed an easy script. But instead of letting a chronic illness limit her, she embraced the full range of her voice, as a singer, actress, writer, and advocate. She didn't just want to perform; she wanted to make a difference.At 16, Julia founded Singing at the Top of My Lungs, a nonprofit inspired by her own hospital experiences. Initially, the organization supported both CF research and creative therapies at children's hospitals. But as larger institutions took a stronger lead in research, Julia saw a growing gap elsewhere.“I've decided to devote all of Singing at the Top of My Lungs to music and creative art therapies... They are significantly underfunded, not covered by insurance, and they are often, honestly, the unsung heroes of children's hospitals.”Julia's foundation now champions music and art therapies — the very programs that once transformed her own stays in sterile hospital rooms into spaces of joy and creativity. She knows firsthand that healing isn't just about medicine — it's also about expression, play, and being seen as more than your diagnosis.Her own career blossomed when a YouTube performance caught the attention of a Beverly Hills record producer, leading to her single “Be That Girl” being featured in the film The Greening of Whitney Brown. She's since performed the national anthem at major sports arenas, starred in national commercials, and most recently, in the 2024 film Playing Through. Her appearance on ABC's Listen to Your Heart introduced her to a national audience, but she never let fame outshine her mission.In parallel with her artistic pursuits, Julia has become a tireless advocate. She co-created and hosted Making It Matterwith the Boomer Esiason Foundation, currently leads Uncommon Lungs with Vertex Pharmaceuticals, and recently launched a podcast called A Deeper Look, spotlighting bold, thoughtful conversations with inspiring women.Julia Rae is more than a performer, she's a force. Her life is a testament to what happens when passion meets purpose, and when a voice refuses to be silenced by circumstance.For the chronic illness community, and for anyone who's ever been told “you can't” — Julia's story sings a different tune.She's not just making music. She's making it matter.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Graeme Messer (@GraemeMesser) Graeme Messer is a London-based multidisciplinary artist whose work spans assemblage, photography, text, and performance. Originally from South Africa, he moved to the UK in the 1980s and built a successful early career in theatre, directing works by Shakespeare and Tennessee Williams, and founding the award-winning company Out of Bounds.Since 2010, Messer has focused solely on visual art, bringing his theatrical flair into the gallery space. Messer's work is often autobiographical, exploring themes such as identity, shame, self-worth, and the complex interplay between vulnerability and resilience. He is known for his distinctive mirror pieces—vintage mirrors etched with bold, confrontational or affirming text, illuminated with LED lighting. These works prompt viewers to reflect—both literally and metaphorically—on themselves and the world around them. Messer continues to push boundaries, using art as a means to question, provoke, and connect.

Never Just Surviving: Sophie Holmes on Running 36 Marathons with Cystic FibrosisDespite a schedule packed with training, advocacy, and breaking world records, Sophie Holmes of the U.K. always makes time to share her story, and we're so grateful she did.Diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at just four months old, Sophie was told she might not live past her teens. But rather than letting that define her, she's spent her life rewriting the narrative. Her latest, jaw-dropping accomplishment? Running 36 marathons in 36 days. That's right—36 consecutive days, 26.2 miles each day, driven by pure determination and an unshakable belief in what's possible.Sophie is not only an elite athlete and personal trainer, she's a powerful advocate for chronic illness awareness. In this episode of the Living with Cystic Fibrosis podcast, she talks about what fueled her through each grueling mile, how she manages the intense physical demands of endurance sports while living with CF.“Mindset is everything.” – Sophie HolmesIt's easy to say that exercise is one of the best things someone with CF can do. But Sophie reminds us: that doesn't mean it's easy. Her story is a powerful example of grit, strength, and living fully—even when the odds are stacked against you.Sophie's Story:Diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at four months oldTold she might not live past her teenage yearsRan 36 marathons in 36 days, demonstrating her extraordinary enduranceSet a Lake Cuomo Ultra Ironman World RecordBelieves mindset is the key to overcoming life's toughest challengesWorks as a personal trainer and chronic illness advocateRedefines resilience—not just surviving, but thrivingInspires runners, athletes, and anyone living with chronic illnessLives with relentless drive and purposeShows us what's possible when you push beyond the limits others set for youYou can find Sophie Holmes on IG: https://www.instagram.com/sophiegraceholmes/ Please like, subscribe, and comment on our podcasts!Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Watch our podcasts on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laurabonnell1136/featuredThanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/en

➡ CLICK HERE to send me a text, I'd love to hear what you thought about this episode! Leave your name in the text so I know who it's from! Today on the podcast, I'm talking with Rita Bertrand and Marjorie Moon, the founding members of Milwaukee's very own Threshold Choir. These two women, along with eleven other members of the Milwaukee chapter's choir sing soft, quiet and calming songs, in harmony, in the rooms of people who are on the threshold. Mostly these are people who are at the threshold of death, but they've also been invited to other thresholds as well, as we talk about on the pod. You might imagine this kind of work as somber or sorrowful, but what we found was something far more hopeful: connection, compassion, and yes — JOY. These women aren't afraid of silence. They bring presence, patience, and the kind of care that asks for nothing in return.

We have a powerful conversation about dedication, innovation, and impact in the cystic fibrosis community in this podcast. I'm joined by two incredible guests from MVW Nutritionals: Mike Walters and Jason Vandiver.Mike Walters is a true pioneer in pharmaceutical business and innovation, with nearly four decades of experience. He began his career at Johnson & Johnson, where he spent 14 years in leadership roles across sales, marketing, and management development. In 1996, Mike launched his first company to help organizations navigate product commercialization in the U.S. Since then, his work in the CF space has been nothing short of groundbreaking. He founded and led Source CF, MVW Nutritionals, and CF Global Services, playing a key role in bringing many standard-of-care treatments to market. A Vanderbilt graduate with degrees in Biochemistry and Chemistry, Mike brings both scientific insight and a deep commitment to rare disease care.Joining him is Jason Vandiver, Chief Operating Officer of MVW Nutritionals. A proud Alabama native, Jason earned his degree in Finance from the University of Alabama at Birmingham and spent 16 years in banking before joining MVW during a time of rapid growth. He now helps lead the multimillion-dollar, family-owned company that's become a global leader in nutritional products for patients with CF and non-CF EPI.In this episode, Mike and Jason share their personal stories, the importance of strong partnerships, and the real challenges patients and families are facing—especially as funding landscapes continue to shift. We explore the power of empathy, the strength of community support, and why transparency in nonprofit operations matters now more than ever.It's a conversation about hope, action, and what's ahead as we work together to support those who need us most.   Please like, subscribe, and comment on our podcasts!Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Watch our podcasts on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laurabonnell1136/featuredThanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/en

Substack is where I discovered Dr. MeiLan Han! I was browsing through and was pleasantly surprised to read an article, and learn that she wrote a book called, Breathing Lessons. And to top it off, she's from my home state of Michigan. I also learned the Dr. Han's book was “a passion project during the pandemic.”I'm delighted to share a conversation with Dr. MeiLan Han, one of the country's most respected voices in lung health and a tireless advocate for people living with chronic respiratory conditions.Dr. Han is a Professor of Medicine and Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care at University of Michigan Health. She's not only cared for patients at the bedside but has devoted her career to understanding lung disease at its roots, with a special focus on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a condition that remains widely under-recognized and underfunded. Through her research, Dr. Han is helping to uncover how diseases like COPD affect the lungs in different ways, with the goal of making treatment more precise, more effective, and more personalized.Her journey began at the University of Washington and continued through specialized training at the University of Michigan, where she also earned a Master's degree in Biostatistics and Clinical Study Design. Today, she leads research funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), serves on national advisory boards for the COPD Foundation and the American Lung Association, and contributes to global guidelines that shape how lung disease is diagnosed and treated.Dr. Han also serves as Deputy Editor of the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, helping to guide the direction of clinical practice and research in pulmonary medicine.If you or someone you love is living with a chronic lung condition, Dr. Han's insight is not only encouraging, it's essential. I'm so grateful to bring her voice to this platform. How many breathes do we take in a lifetime? It's fascinating to discuss and you'll hear the answer in our podcast.Lung health, do you think about it?To get her book: https://www.amazon.com/Breathing-Lessons-Doctors-Guide-Health-ebook/dp/B08X2ZFGNZ/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0 Please like, subscribe, and comment on our podcasts!Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Watch our podcasts on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laurabonnell1136/featuredThanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/en

"Oh, the people you'll meet, and the places you'll go..."That classic Dr. Seuss line couldn't have been more true when I found myself at a rare disease conference, taking with Dr. Gabriel Cohn.

Panama has been looking for solutions to a long-term problem. Every time a ship passes through the Panama Canal, more than 50 million gallons of fresh water from Lake Gatun pour out into the ocean. Nobody ever thought Panama could run out of water. It is one of the rainiest countries in the world. But a couple years ago, a drought got so bad that the canal had to reduce traffic by more than a third - which had a huge impact on global shipping.The Panama Canal needs more water. Authorities have decided to get it by building a dam in a spot that would displace more than 2,000 people along the Rio Indio.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.orgEmail us at considerthis@npr.orgLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
