What happens when an Australian butcher starts reading Leviticus—and finds it fun? In this unique episode, Dru Johnson speaks with Phil Bray, author of Leviticus on the Butcher's Block, about how his day job cutting lambs and steaks helped him see the book of Leviticus in a whole new light. Phil traces his journey from casual Bible reader to Leviticus superfan, exploring how rituals, sacrifice, and atonement make far more sense when you've broken down hundreds of animals by hand. Phil shares how ancient sacrificial rituals weren't necessarily about violent death but about preparing food as a gift to God. The conversation dives into the Hebrew understanding of holiness, clean vs. unclean, and why God's presence is depicted as a space without disease or death. Along the way, Phil and Dru reflect on Mary Douglas, Jewish slaughter laws, the power of smell and memory, and how the altar isn't where the animal dies—but where it becomes holy. Phil's insights bring theology and meat science into one coherent (and hilarious) frame, showing why Leviticus is deeply spiritual, richly embodied, and more relevant than most Christians assume.

As we start 2026, we should be asking how to join the things that God is already doing. Where is he moving and how do we join such movements? Our old friend Craig Greenfield returns to the show to discuss the growth and impact of Alongsiders International, a movement focused on discipleship and mentorship for vulnerable children. He emphasizes the importance of contextualizing ministry in diverse cultures and how the challenges of consumerism in Western churches can inhibit true discipleship. Craig discusses the unique role that young people are playing throughout the world including with Gen Z protests that are toppling unjust countries or subverting contexts that are hostile to the Christianity. No better way to start off the new year than to have Craig encourage all of us to engage with God's heart for justice and to seek transformative relationships that reflect the teachings of Jesus.

Perspective is crucial for understanding global needs and God's work. Discipleship should happen in everyday life, not just in church settings. Contextualization is key to make culturally relevant materials. Success in mentorship is seen when young people become mentors themselves. Discipleship can thrive even in hostile environments by going under the radar and sustaining the local church. Affluence in the West hinders true discipleship and community connection. Prayer is foundational in building relationships and supporting one another. Learning from other movements can inspire and inform our own practices. Gen Z political movements for justice are important to consider. True movements are transformational and driven by passion, not hype. Theme music Kirk Osamayo. Free Music Archive, CC BY License
Today with us on the Incite Change Podcast, Coach Mauro sits down with Dr. Elizabeth Ann Wanek. Dr. Wanek is a physician with decades of experience in both conventional surgery and integrative health. Over the course of her medical career, she transitioned from traditional clinical practice to a more holistic, root-cause approach to wellness, driven by a deep interest in how the human body heals and sustains itself at the cellular level. The conversation delves into the crucial role of cellular hydration and mineral balance, clarifying why simply drinking more water is often insufficient. Dr. Wanek explains how minerals function as biological facilitators, supporting energy production, cellular communication, and resilience, and how long-term deficiencies and poor quality contribute to chronic conditions. Through her Foundational Medicine perspective, Dr. Wanek emphasizes working with the body rather than overriding it. She encourages small, consistent changes that restore the conditions the body needs to function as designed, empowering individuals to better understand and support their own health.

Guiding Question How can we find lasting meaning, purpose, and fulfillment in life amidst its fleeting nature and inevitable struggles? Summary This message explores the fundamental human struggle with meaning, purpose, and direction in life. Drawing from the wisdom of Moses in the Psalms, it reveals the emptiness and futility of life lived apart from God, marked by fleeting achievements, adversity, and ultimate regret. It calls listeners to recognize the limitations of worldly pursuits and encourages them to seek a life anchored in God — a life characterized by a lasting perspective, a lasting relationship, and lasting labor. The message emphasizes that only through God can we find a truly fulfilling life that endures beyond this temporal existence. Outline: The Reality of Life's Decline and Futility Life's days “decline” like a sigh, full of sorrow and labor (Psalm 90:9-10). Without God, life ends with regret, lost glory, and forgotten achievements. The irony that people fail to connect life's emptiness with being apart from God. Moses' Prayer for a Lasting Perspective (Psalm 90:12) Asking God to teach us to number our days wisely. The importance of seeing life through God's truth rather than worldly illusions. Perspective governs our priorities and how we live. Moses' Prayer for a Lasting Relationship (Psalm 90:13-15) All human relationships are temporary; only God offers a limitless relationship. God's promise to return to those who return to Him (Malachi 3:7). The daily satisfaction that comes from experiencing God's lovingkindness like manna. Moses' Prayer for a Lasting Labor (Psalm 90:16-17) The desire for work that has eternal significance, not just temporal success. The problem of busy lives focused on fleeting, self-centered tasks. The call to invest in God's kingdom and people, producing fruit that lasts beyond our lifetime. Conclusion and Invitation Encouragement to reflect on one's life epitaph—will it say “this was not it” or “everlasting life”? Call to stop “playing church” and to live a real, committed Christian life. Invitation for those feeling lost to seek God's lasting fulfillment. Closing prayer for transformation through God's presence. Key Takeaways Life apart from God is ultimately futile and marked by regret. We need God to teach us a lasting perspective to live wisely and purposefully. A true, lasting relationship with God is the only permanent human relationship. Our work and labor should aim for eternal significance, building God's kingdom. Daily satisfaction and fulfillment come from recognizing and embracing God's lovingkindness. It is never too late to turn to God and find a life that truly lasts. Reflecting on the legacy we leave behind should motivate us to pursue what matters eternally. Scriptural References Psalm 90:1-17 — The entire passage of Moses' prayer, focusing on life's brevity, human frailty, and God's eternal nature. Malachi 3:7 — God's promise to return when His people return to Him. John 8:32 — “You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.” Ecclesiastes 12:1 — “Remember your Creator in the days of your youth.” Ephesians 2:10 — “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand.” Jeremiah 9:23-24 — “Let him who boasts, boast in this: that he understands and knows Me.” Recorded 12/28/80

It seems anymore that people are operating increasingly out of extremes without any context, nuance, or understanding. I get it – outrage sells. And, to some degree, I've been guilty of it myself. But I've found myself as I get older – wanting to go find a piece of land and work on my canoe – rather than engage in what social media has diminished us too. My guest today, Brady Pesola, would agree and, he's made a life out of studying ancient philosophy combined with practical, nuanced modern insight. Today, we talk about social independence, the "Golden Mean," what he calls "The Stop Light" theory, meta-cognition, and the concept of the Grayman and how it can help you operate as a man.

What if your next vacation could transform lives—including your own? In this inspiring episode of the Leaders of Transformation podcast, host Nicole Jansen welcomes Kimberly Haley-Coleman, founder and executive director of GlobeAware - an award-winning nonprofit that has mobilized volunteers across more than 25 countries through service adventures that create lasting social impact. Kimberly shares how voluntourism, when done responsibly, goes far beyond traditional travel. These immersive experiences cultivate cross-cultural leadership, deepen human connection, and shift how people see the world - and themselves. From her own journey leaving the corporate world to building GlobeAware, Kimberly breaks down the power of meaningful service and the practical steps for participating in global volunteer projects. This conversation reveals why service travel isn't just about helping others - it's about developing resilience, gratitude, empathy, and a renewed appreciation for humanity. If you've ever wanted your vacation to mean more than photos and souvenirs - or you're seeking a powerful way to grow as a leader, family, or team - this episode may spark your next bold step. What We Discuss in This Episode How Kimberly's passion for cross-cultural service travel began What "voluntourism" really means—and how GlobeAware ensures ethical, responsible impact How volunteers and local communities benefit from service-based travel Why working alongside - not above - local populations creates sustainable change Who can participate in GlobeAware projects and how it works How COVID-19 forced nonprofits to innovate in international service travel The unique growth families and corporate teams experience through these programs How volunteers fund their trips and how GlobeAware remains financially sustainable The leadership challenges of running global programs in dynamic environments The lasting personal transformation participants experience—and why joy is central to it all 10 Key Takeaways Accessible Voluntourism: GlobeAware offers short-term service travel—often described as a "mini Peace Corps"—making global volunteering accessible to families, professionals, and corporate teams. Ethical, Community-Led Service: True impact begins with equality. Projects are designed and led by local communities, ensuring their needs and voices come first. Transformative Learning Through Experience: Side-by-side service fosters empathy, gratitude, and cultural awareness—especially powerful for families and young people. A Powerful Perspective Shift: Exposure to different ways of living reshapes views on privilege and consumption through experiential learning—not lectures. Simple, Supported Participation: Trips are tax-deductible and easy to join, with logistics like food, lodging, and bilingual coordinators fully managed. Leadership & Team Development: Corporate groups use GlobeAware experiences to build trust, resilience, gratitude, and cross-cultural leadership skills that translate back to the workplace. Sustainable Operating Model: Only 15% of program fees support operations; the rest directly funds project materials and local labor—without government funding. Resilience Through COVID: GlobeAware survived global shutdowns by pivoting to virtual programs, adapting health protocols, and reimagining community engagement. Redefining Impact: Success isn't measured by numbers alone—but by the lasting shifts in perspective, gratitude, and connection participants experience. Joy at the Core: Beyond impact, volunteering creates enduring joy—rooted in shared humanity and the simple act of serving together.

There's a module for that. Module name/project name: Metatag Simple Widget Brief history How old: created in Jul 2025 by Jim Vomero (njim) of Four Kitchens Versions available: 1.0.0 and 1.1.0, the latter of which works with Drupal core 10 and 11 Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage No open issues Usage stats: 1 site Module features and usage With this module installed, in the form configuration for your content types, you'll see a new "Simplified meta tags form" widget for metatag fields It's designed to provide a dramatically streamlined input for metatags, focused on only exposing the most commonly used tags, the title and description As a configuration option, you can have the widget hide default values, which for metatag fields often contain tokens, which could be confusing for Drupal neophytes The module was nominated by Dave Hansen-Lange (dalin), also of Four Kitchens, and a co-maintainer, as well as a fellow Canadian I also wanted to give a shout out to the Drupal.org Infrastructure Working Group. In the lead-up to this recording there was a media server failure that brought down the entire site. They worked as furiously as Santa's elves and were able to quickly get the site back up. It was a reminder for me of how much we all (and this segment in particular) depend on the tireless work they do. In this season of giving please consider supporting the Drupal Association, and if you already do, maybe see if you could give a little more.

In this episode, we explore Marco Masi's article “The Integral Cosmology of Sri Aurobindo: An Introduction from the Perspective of Consciousness Studies.” Marco's work sits at the intersection of the hard sciences and spirituality, advancing the provocative notion of “divine materialism.” We examine the limitations of contemporary philosophy of mind and mainstream consciousness studies, emphasizing the need for more expansive frameworks capable of addressing the interior dimensions of experience. Drawing from Sri Aurobindo's Integral Yoga, Marco introduces Integral Cosmology as a way to fill what is often missing in academic and scientific discourse—a vision of consciousness that is both evolutionary and spiritual. We discuss the pitfalls of academic hyperspecialization and the inadequacy of even transdisciplinary models when confronting today's complex, multidimensional challenges. Instead, we point toward the emergence of an integral framework—a mode of inquiry grounded in the cultivation of integral consciousness itself. We conclude with a reflection on integral education and its transformative potential. How might an integral worldview help students not only synthesize scientific and spiritual paradigms, but also develop the inner capacities required for personal, cultural, and spiritual transformation? Marco Masi (born 1965) attended the German School of Milan, Italy. He graduated in physics at the University of Padua, and later obtained a Ph.D. in physics at the University of Trento. He worked as a postdoc in universities in Italy, France, and Germany, and as a school teacher for three years. After he had authored some scientific papers (http://ow.ly/snz6u) his interests veered towards new forms of individual learning and a new concept of free progress education originated from his activity both as a tutor in several universities and as a high school teacher, but especially from his direct, lived experience of what education should not be. This led him to author a book on ”Free progress Education”. He also wrote a two-volume series on quantum physics entitled “Quantum Physics: An Overview of a Weird World”, and which tries to close a gap between the too high-level university textbooks and a too low-level popular science approach. His interests in metaphysical and philosophical ruminations led him to the vision of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. Not only gave him this a spiritual path to follow, but also answered many questions he was looking for in science.

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!Today's episode is a re-release of one of Paige's favorite Paige's Perspective episodes, Even If - brought back with a new intro by Matt.This conversation gets to the heart of something we talk about often at TWFO: the difference between living in “what if” and learning how to live in “even if.”“What if” thinking keeps us stuck in fear, scanning the future for danger and trying to predict outcomes we can't control. “Even if” shifts the focus back to self-trust, resilience, and knowing that no matter what happens, you will be okay.In this episode, Paige breaks down how reframing “what if” thoughts into “even if” statements can calm the nervous system, reduce spiraling, and help you move forward without needing certainty. She shares real-life examples, practical mindset shifts, and simple exercises you can start using right away.Whether you're navigating addiction, recovery, a major life transition, or just the everyday uncertainty that comes with being human, this episode is a reminder that strength isn't about avoiding hard things, it's about trusting yourself to handle them.Find video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comSupport the Show:Buy Us a Coffee!Online Program: www.independentlystrong.comSoberlink Device:www.soberlink.com/wheelsCheck out our blog:https://twfo.com/blogFollow us on TikTok:https://tiktok.com/@twfo_coupleFollow us on Instagram:https://instagram.com/twfo_couple/Follow us on Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/TWFOCoupleFollow us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@twfo_coupleFind Taylor Counseling Group:https://taylorcounselinggroup.com/Donate to Counseling for the Future Foundation:Donate Here
