Dr. Ruth Westheimer, or "Dr. Ruth," became famous in the late 1980s and early 1990s with her radio show"Sexually Speaking." Her open discussions on sexual health andrelationships, alongside notable appearances, made her a household name.Her final book, "The Joy of Connections," coauthored with Pierre Lehu and Alison Gilbert, explores human connection. In 2023, she was appointed New York's first ambassador to loneliness, coinciding with the Surgeon General's declaration of loneliness as an epidemic.Dr. Ruth's life extended beyond therapy; she served in the Israeli Defense Force, escaped Nazi persecution, and became an orphan at ten. The theme of longing for connection permeates her last book, written before her passing at 96. Her influence endures, evident in Pierre's mention of his girlfriend, whom she undoubtedly inspired.

In the powerful conclusion to the Chains of Truth series, we uncover the final truth about the mysterious chain and journal. Through the story of a devastating fire, the chain emerges as a symbol of enduring faith—scarred but unbroken, bearing witness to the power of God's refining fire. Reflecting on biblical themes of fire as both a trial and a purifier, we explore how God uses the flames of adversity to strip away lies, strengthen faith, and reveal His truth. From the fiery furnace in Daniel to the refining fire in Malachi, the chain's survival becomes a testament to the spiritual truth that what is forged in the fire cannot be undone. Join us as we reflect on how trials refine us, challenge the chains we carry, and discover the ultimate freedom found in Christ. The series may end here, but its message lives on: true freedom is forged in faith, tested by fire, and sustained by God's grace.

In this episode of 620 Life, we continue the Chains of Truth series by exploring one of the journal's most compelling statements: “The truth shall be forged in the fire of faith.” What is this fire? How does it refine and reveal truth? And what does it mean for our spiritual journeys? Through biblical stories like the burning bush, the fiery furnace, and the tongues of fire at Pentecost, we uncover how fire symbolizes God's presence, testing, and purification. We also reflect on the trials we face in life and how they burn away deception, leaving behind a stronger, purer faith. Join us as we dig deeper into the chain's story and discover how the fire of faith challenges us to confront the lies we believe, embrace truth, and trust in God's transformative power.

Visit us at Network2020.org.The technological world is built by critical minerals like nickel, cobalt, and lithium. As the demand for clean energy expands, so does the demand for these metals and rare earth elements. While these materials have historically been mined on land, a trove of critical minerals is lying on the seabed and being captured by the competitive, booming, and opaque deep-sea-mining industry. The U.S. is missing out in this race while its geopolitical competitors, China and Russia are getting ahead in this industry. On the other hand, scientists and environmentalists are raising concerns regarding the environmental impacts of the industry's activities. What is the scope and growth potential of this industry? How is it governed? How can countries balance environmental goals with economic and geopolitical ones?Join us for a conversation with Julian Jackson, Project Director of Ocean Governance at the Pew Charitable Trusts; Vasser Seydel, President of The Oxygen Project ;and Victor Vescovo, Founder and CEO of Caladan Capital LLC and Renowned Undersea Explorer where they discuss the deep-sea mining industry, its governance, geopolitics, potential environmental impacts and more.Music by Yurii Semchyshyn from PixabayMusic by Sergii Pavkin from Pixabay

Visit us at Network2020.org. The International Olympics Committee (IOC) has consistently positioned itself as against the politicization of sport. In The Olympic Charter, the IOC declares that it has a mission “to oppose any political or commercial abuse of sport and athletes.” However, this has consistently not been the case. Countries like China have used hosting the games to showcase state power. Winning in the Olympics is a way to increase international prestige. Individual athletes have used the games as a platform for protests. There have been diplomatic boycotts of adversarial countries. So, how do international politics play into sporting events like the Olympics? How can sports be a tool for cultural relations? How do the 2024 Olympic games reflect current geopolitical trends? Join us for a conversation with Dr. Sarah Hillyer, Founder & Director of the Center for Sport, Peace & Society at the University of Tennessee, and Dr. Susan Brownell, Curators' Distinguished Professor of Anthropology at the University of Missouri-St. Louis.Music by Musictown from PixabayMusic by Aleksey Chistilin from Pixabay

Going to see the movie Civil War, the 2024 release written and directed by Alex Garland, isn't like seeing most movies. You walk out of the theater with a lot to think about -- and maybe you walk out changed. What the experience has done for me is to help me embrace a philosophy proposed by Viktor Frankl, the 20th Century psychiatrist who survived the Holocaust and developed Logotherapy, based on the premise that a basic drive of humankind is to find meaning in life — no matter what the conditions of someone's life may be. His most famous work is the book Man's Search for Meaning -- published in English in 1959, an immediate best-seller and, in 1991, called by the Library of Congress one of the ten most influential books in the U.S. If the term "tragic optimism" sounds contradictory to you, stick with me for a few minutes. You might find it as bracing, helpful -- and hopeful -- as I do.Opening Music by Oleg Kyrylkovv from PixabaySupport the Show.Do you have comments to share or an idea for an upcoming episode?

It's the execution of ideas that really separates the sheep from the goats. — Sue GraftonWe are discreet sheep; we wait to see how the drove is going, and then go with the drove. — Mark TwainThe shepherd always tries to persuade the sheep that their interests and his own are the same. — StendhalIf Someone wants a sheep, then that means that he exists. –Antoine de Saint-ExuperySheep sound effects courtesy Pixabay SoundSupport the showDo you have comments to share or an idea for an upcoming episode?

The Jonestown Massacre happened 46 years ago. But to me, it feels way too close — because one of the people who died there was a girl I went to school with. She was a quiet, shy girl, the daughter of a pastor when I knew her. For years I thought of her as a duped, innocent victim. But it turns out she was one of the leaders, and an architect of the plan to have everyone drink the poison. Is there a way to make any of this make sense?Content warning: suicide, murder, cults, sexual abuse, child murderReference links:Jonestown, basic background from Brittanica: https://www.britannica.com/event/JonestownMaria Katsaris, Wikipedia entryhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_KatsarisJonestown: The Women Behind The Massacre documentary filmhttps://www.imdb.com/title/tt8020376/"revolutionary suicide"https://inthesetimes.com/article/jonestown-mass-revolutionary-suicide-socialist"Moonies" (Unification Church)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unification_ChurchScientology/Church of Scientologyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientology#:~:text=Scientology%20is%20a%20set%20of,or%20a%20new%20religious%20movement.Baghwan Shree Rajneeshhttps://www.neh.gov/humanities/2018/spring/feature/rajneeshpuram-was-more-utopia-desert-it-was-mirror#:~:text=Named%20after%20the%20iconoclastic%20Indian,utopia%20in%20the%20Oregon%20desert.Jonestown 45th anniversary article, Daily Journal:https://www.smdailyjournal.com/news/local/45-years-later-peoples-temple-and-the-peninsula/article_3b001bee-85cc-11ee-aa8d-579b5c0b7b99.htmlAlternative Considerations of Jonestown & Peoples Templehttps://jonestown.sdsu.edu/-transcript of Charles Garry's interview with Maria Katsaris re: sexual abuse by fatherhttps://jonestown.sdsu.edu/?page_id=125494Charles Garry, Wikipedia entryhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Garry#:~:text=Charles%20R.,during%20the%201978%20Jonestown%20tragedy.Support the showDo you have comments to share or an idea for an upcoming episode?
