Episode #539: In his analysis of Myanmar's democratic transition, Elliot Prasse-Freeman highlights the failures of a system that was inherently flawed from its inception. Although the 2010s brought real change to some, the military also retained significant control, making any possibility at political reform superficial. This left marginalized groups without meaningful change, and created a transition that, as Prasse-Freeman says, was “moribund” from the start. Economic reforms during that time emphasized privatization and the commodification of land, disregarding the needs of small-scale farmers. These policies led to land grabs, exacerbating the vulnerabilities of those already struggling. In parallel, he notes that this period failed to address ethnic justice, leaving the grievances of non-Bamar communities, including the Rohingya, unaddressed, and further deepening divisions. Grassroots activism emerged as a critical response, driven by frustration with both the military and the NLD's failure to enact real reform; local groups symbolized sustained resistance, organizing actions to reclaim land and assert their rights. Despite the many flaws, the resilience of the people of Myanmar remains evident. As Prasse-Freeman poignantly states: “One of the things that they talk about is that you have to make people be their own heroes! But in order to do so, you have to act like a hero yourself, because people aren't prepared to be their own heroes in front of a military that's constantly exploited them.”

One Bride - Gifts and Anointing (2) (audio) David Eells – 04/1/26 Faithful Builders and the Falling Away R.V. - 06/14/2007 (David's notes in red) I had a dream that I felt was regarding the corporate body, and was replayed over and over again. I prayed about the dream; parts of it were shown again to me just as if I was sleeping and dreaming, but I was wide awake. I have been shown what most of it means and believe it to be a warning to the corporate body as well as to UBM. It is double-edged in that it embraces warning, judgment and protection. I will not recount all of the dream, only portions for your judgment. I was in a large meeting, and it was comprised of only architects. (These are a group of people who understand what it takes to build something.) (The understanding of what it takes to rebuild the Kingdom after a falling away is lacking in the ministers.) There were thousands of seats all over the place, as far as the eye could see. These architects began to show up: all sizes, shapes, colors, clothing, etc. I was allowed to step ‘out of body' in the dream. The Lord began to speak to my spirit about how sad He is regarding His body and what seems to be is not what really is. As I looked, I wept, crying out to Him. A hand appeared, and I was handed a stack of 1-inch-square cards that looked like cardboard. On each square was written one of the following: N-4, E-4 or O-4. I was told to go and place a square on the chairs that He would show me. When placing ‘which' one card on which chair was a deliberate action. I was told, “Put N-4 here and O-4 there,” and so on. I didn't put a square card on every chair, but only on those told to me. I said, “How can I do this, for I do not have enough squares?” I was told to get busy, so I started laying a card only on certain chairs as I walked down the rows. I knew which one went on which chair. As the cards began to run out, another batch would appear in my hand. I began to tire because I could see no end to the chairs and people, but I was admonished to continue. No one asked what I was doing or what I was placing on their chairs. Then it began to rain, light at first, and then it was really pouring down. The rain was refreshing and gave me additional energy. I was told to continue, and I did. The water began to rise, first over the soles of my shoes and then over my shoes, ankles, and to mid-shin. (The water of the Word and Spirit arising in the world will refresh the righteous but bring increasing judgment upon the wicked.) This happened three times. The last time everything was the same except the following: As the water kept rising, I kept placing the square cards on the chairs, walking between them. Then I stepped into a large hole with my left leg all the way up to my waist. Once in the hole, the cards in my hand went away. (The goats which the Lord placed on the left may represent those in the body who are stubborn and are swallowed up by the earth, meaning their own flesh. Isa.42:22 But this is a people robbed and plundered; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison-houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore. Once this falling away is complete, no more cards will be given out, for there will be no more grace given to become a [builder of the Kingdom, which are the ministers.]) When my left foot hit the bottom of the hole, my left leg cramped so hard it woke me up. As I was waking up, my leg was actually cramping. I was told the “N” was for Nehemiah, the “O” for Obadiah, and the “E” for Ezra. The 4's represented chapters with the exception of Obadiah. (Ezra 4 speaks of the opposition of the wicked against those who build the true temple. Nehemiah 4 speaks of the opposition of the wicked against those who build the wall of protection. The builders, or architects/ministers in this case, had come out of Babylon but were in the process of building that temple, which represents Christ in their lives. In the third case of Obadiah, this was not true.) What I do not understand is the scripture from Obadiah 1:4: “Though you build high like the eagle, Though you set your nest among the stars, From there I will bring you down, declares the Lord”. (Obadiah was written about Edom, which is the seed of Esau, who sold his birthright from his father and became the enemy of Jacob, or Israel. Jesus was the stone that the builders/ministers rejected. This represents those Christian builders who will be lost due to selling their birthright by walking after the flesh through bitterness and end up attacking their brother, as Esau's seed did in Obadiah. Heb.12:14 Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord: 15 looking carefully lest [there be] any man that falleth short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble [you], and thereby the many be defiled; 16 lest [there be] any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one mess of meat sold his own birthright. 17 For ye know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected; for he found no place for a change of mind [in his father,] though he sought it diligently with tears. Verse 4 here represents these people who are building their own Babylonish structures to heaven and are among the 1/3 of the stars that fall from heaven. Rev.12:3 And there was seen another sign in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his heads seven diadems. 4 And his tail draweth the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth. ... 6:13 and the stars of the heaven fell unto the earth, as a fig tree casteth her unripe figs when she is shaken of a great wind.) The 3 different cards represent the seed of Abraham and not those multitudes who only claim Christianity but received no card. The 1/3 represents the apostates of Obadiah 4 who will be swallowed up in judgment like the left leg of the body and lose their position in heaven with Christ as the stars of Abraham's seed. The 2/3 are those in Ezra and Nehemiah who will see their error and begin to build themselves into the true temple of God. The cards stopped coming at the falling away, because there will be no more grace for the old order Pharisees of today to become builders. As in Jesus' day, the Man-child brings about the end of the old order. The true disciples became the new order builders. Coming Giants of the Faith Jon Higareda - Around 05/01/2009 (David's notes in red) Just thought I would share a couple of dreams I had right after discovering UBM a few months ago. After watching the first part of the Hidden Manna series, I started having dreams and signs occur in my life that confirmed that I had come to the right place. (PTL, that blesses us, too.) The first dream started with me traveling through a dark city toward a mall. I entered the mall and went to a store that sold shirts with Christian symbols on them. (A dark city represents not abiding in the congregation of true light, but in the dark doctrines of men and tradition. A mall represents the Babylonish world of churchianity where the gospel is bought and sold. Shirts represents how shirts advertise for businesses, these advertise each sect or their teachings.) One of my good friends from the past was in the store, looking at the shirts. We both looked around for a bit and I decided that I was done looking and asked him if he was ready to go. [Rejecting the old order] He said that he was done shopping and that he wanted to stay in the store for good. (He wanted to stay in his old order church, where the gospel teaching is merchandised and sold and hirelings are bought with salaries and “offerings”.) I wanted him to go with me, but decided that if he wanted to stay, that was his choice. I, however, had seen enough. I didn't want to buy anything and was ready to go. (Note: This same friend from the dream ended up parting ways with me about two months later, after getting involved with the whole drunken glory movement. Because I wasn't willing to go along with some of the behavior I saw, I was accused of having a “spirit of a Pharisee”; this split hurt me pretty badly.) (Oops, there's a confirmation; I had not read that when I made the notes above. The remnant Church, meaning in Greek, the “called out ones”, will leave the apostate sheepfold to follow the Lamb, as in John 10. The disciples came out of the denominations of Judaism to follow the Lamb. The goats will separate from them to follow the darkness.) I ended up leaving the mall and was headed toward the beach. (God said the sands of the seashore are the seed of Abraham, by faith.) As I pulled up to the beach, I headed for the dock and was shocked to see submarines all around the dock and the shore. I remember asking myself in the dream why all these submarines were there. (The waters of the Word are a curse to the wicked. These waters may not come upon the beach of God's true people to stay, but must recede. The dangers in the church world that were normally hidden are now being exposed, and wolves are seen “everywhere”. The submarine strategy of German U-boats was called “wolf packs”. They are, as Jude described, “hidden rocks in your love feasts”... Jude 12 These are they who are hidden rocks in your love-feasts when they feast with you, shepherds that without fear feed themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn leaves without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots. The submarines represented their manmade structures to deal with the curse of the Word around them.) All of a sudden, I heard a loud noise coming from the sea that sounded like thunder. (In the Book of Revelation, thunder is only mentioned in two places, and in both it is the sign of judgments being released in the tribulation through the Man-child ministry. Rev.6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying as with a voice of thunder, Come. 2 And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon had a bow; and there was given unto him a crown: and he came forth conquering, and to conquer. This is a sign of Jesus in the Man-child ministry bringing judgments and this second text of thunder is too: Rev.14:1 And I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on the mount Zion, and with him a hundred and forty and four thousand, having his name, and the name of his Father, written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder ...) I looked out toward the sea and saw a bunch of boats loaded with people. The boats were sinking and the people on them were crying out in fear when, out of nowhere, the boats started to rise up into the air, supported by these giant men who had come out of the water. Oddly enough, seeing the large men didn't surprise me as much as seeing the submarines did. (The boats may be families, groups, or churches that have been previously floating above the waters of the curse of the Word, but are in great danger from the tribulation storm and raging sea of humanity. God IS raising up the Man-child, true giants of the faith, who also have been hidden and have come from under the curse themselves to minister the real gospel to boatloads of sinking families/groups/tribes/ tongues of Christians. Praise God! Moses, the man-child's name meant taken from the waters, meaning the Word.) After watching these men rescue the sinking boats, I started walking to a nearby forest. (The forest: the trees of righteousness in Zion who are filled with the Spirit in the tribulation and bear fruit. Isa.61:3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified. This text [Isa.61:1-3] was quoted by Jesus when He was anointed as the Man-child at the beginning of His ministry, and that was a tribulation.... Isa.32:15 until the Spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be esteemed as a forest. 16 Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness; and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field.) As I walked in the forest, I noticed what looked like a small, one-room chapel. I walked to the front of the chapel and noticed that there was an old woman who looked extremely distressed, sweeping the empty chapel out. She looked up at me, and I noticed that she was pregnant. (The old lady is the remnant, chosen Church Bride, and she is cleaning her place of communion with the Lord. She is old because she has matured into the image of the ancient Church. She is distressed over the spiritual condition of her Lord's house, which is ONE, not the fragmented, sectarian, denominated sects of larger Christianity. She is pregnant because she is bringing forth the Man-child, the giants who saved the people above, and also her individual fruit of “Christ in you the hope of glory”. This is before He comes for His people.) In the dream, I was trying to figure out what I was seeing when, suddenly, the front door slowly started to close, and the lady stopped sweeping and looked up at me, crying. It was at this point that I heard a loud voice say, “The countdown has begun”. The dream ended there. (The door is closing to be in the chosen Church Bride and the Man-child leadership. This is the countdown to the complete closing of this door at the tribulation. The first-fruits are ready to lead the apostate church through the wilderness.) The next dream wasn't really a dream but a half-awake, half-asleep vision. A man came to me in a vision and asked me to follow him. He took me to a cave and asked me to look in. Inside the cave was a young man on his knees before a stone altar. He was crying out to the LORD to save and protect him. He was crying out in repentance like I had never heard anyone cry out before. The man told me that it was my turn to learn a new song, just like David (I assume the man in the cave was King David -- at least that's what I thought). The vision ended there. (The man he was following is Jesus in the Man-child, who is typed as King David in scripture. The man at the altar, who is being invited to learn the new song as the Davids are, is John, among others. John's text: Rev.14:1 And I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on the mount Zion, and with him a hundred and forty and four thousand, having his name, and the name of his Father, written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and the voice which I heard [was] as [the voice] of harpers harping with their harps: 3 and they sing as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures and the elders: and no man could learn the song save the hundred and forty and four thousand, [even] they that had been purchased out of the earth. And verse 14:4 [notice the number of the Man-child] These are they that were not defiled with women [or sects or denominations]; for they are virgins [not having the seed or word of men]. These [are] they that follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were purchased from among men, [to be] the firstfruits unto God and unto the Lamb. The cave is under the earth, as in death to self, which repentance brings about.) Jesus Comes into Us Through Faith Eve Brast - 04/12/2012 (David's notes in red) I would like to share a short dream with my brethren that I had on April 11th. I would also like to preface this dream with some things and lessons the Father has been teaching me and showing me recently. I have a tendency to get too focused on one side of an issue and can lose sight of the bigger picture. Because of this, I was getting too focused on desiring to “cleanse myself of all defilement of flesh and spirit,” and because of this, my spirit within me was becoming downcast and discouraged. I was becoming discouraged at every personal failure of my ability to overcome my old man because my desire is so strong to live pleasing before the Father, and I was feeling like I was letting Him down. The enemy was telling me, “You just won't be ready. You will just be passed by.” (In reference to preparing to be in the Bride.) But the Father has been telling me, “It is time for you to rest. You can't do it in your own strength. I have already shown you the end from the beginning”. (We were perfected at the cross, and He will manifest it by our faith, believing we have received. Heb.10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.) He brought to my memory the verse where the people asked Jesus in Joh.6:28 ... What must we do, that we may work the works of God? 29 Jesus answered and said unto them, “This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.” He also brought to my mind what He promised in the Man-child to Be Sent Forth dream, in which He said, “I AM the Lord Your God and I AM able to make them ready!” Which was in response to me saying in the dream, “But Lord, they're not ready”. Then, at night, before I went to bed, I asked the Lord for a verse for encouragement, and my finger was on: Mat.24:45 Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath set over his household, to give them their food in due season? 46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. (He that endureth to the end shall be saved.) (Those who faithfully serve God's children will find grace from Him.) Then I was awakened suddenly by the Father at 11:49 pm (11 minutes to midnight). I was aware that Father had given me the following dream: I dreamed that I was standing on a transparent floor among the clouds with my arms outstretched in the shape of the cross, dressed in a white, seamless garment. (The Bride standing in heavenly places in Christ, with heavenly discernment, bearing the cross by righteous works.) I was looking down upon Earth over the Middle East, above Iran and Pakistan. I heard the voice of the Lord say to me, “Tell my people I WILL epiphany (or shine forth) through them but not by their own efforts and strength but by Mine own, saith the Lord”. Then I heard His voice listing all the “stan” countries, starting with Pakistan, then Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, etc. (This part may be a reference to a war that precedes the manifestation of the Man-child?)(Fulfilled after 2012 and 2026. They have been involved in war, including Iran mentioned earlier and the Man-child body is about to manifest.) Then, in the dream, my husband got up out of the bed and went into the living room of my father's old mobile home where we lived. This part of the dream was so real to me that it woke me up. (The Bride body is the Father's mobile home or tabernacle. He will arise from His rest and move into the living room, and He will live through us.) After this, I was lying in the dark with my eyes closed, and the Father gave me a vision. I saw myself as a giant (corporate body of the Bride) still dressed in the same seamless white garment (works of righteousness), laying down across the heavenlies above Earth (overcoming the earthly through the rest of faith), with my arms still outstretched in the shape of the cross and with my palms up (receiving grace from Heaven) and my head in the East direction. Jesus was above me with His forehead and nose touching mine, His chest to my chest, His palms to my palms, and the toes of His sandals to the toes of my sandals. It was like being pressed against a mirror! (This speaks of coming into His image by seeing Him in us by faith. 2Co.3:18 But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit.) (Note from Deborah Horton: This reminds me of: 2Ki.4:34 And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and he stretched himself upon him: and the flesh of the child waxed warm.) (This is the resurrection of the man-child.) I then woke up and asked my husband if he had been to bed, and then got back up, and he said no. (Though it seemed so real, it did not happen in the physical.) So, I asked the Father for a couple of scriptures for this dream and vision. I flipped open my Bible and my finger was on: Mat.21:25 The Baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven or from men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From Heaven, he will say unto us, Why then did you not believe him? (We must believe in the death burial and resurrection of the Man-child.) 26 But if we say, From men; we fear the multitude; for all hold John as a prophet. (This baptism unto repentance is from Heaven and not of man's works.) The other verse my finger fell on was Isa.54:10 For the mountains may depart, and the hills be removed: but my lovingkindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall my covenant of peace be removed, saith Jehovah that hath mercy on thee. 11 O thou afflicted tossed with tempest, and not comforted behold I will set thy stones in fair colors and lay thy foundations with sapphires. (God will do this work in us by His mercy, not by our failing self-works.) I am sitting here listening to last night's Bible study (Endure to See the Promise) right now and am amazed that it is exactly along the same subject of what the Father has been showing me lately and a confirmation of this dream He gave me! Praise the Father for His supernatural guidance for us, His saints. Plowing and Planting Faith Vernon Love - 03/05/2010 On Friday, March 5, 2010, in my early morning awakening hour, I received this word from the Holy Spirit: The Spirit of the Lord is sending forth His plowmen in this hour to plow up the clay in His body, to remove the seeds of doubt and unbelief in His church. The wind of the Spirit of God is going to blow the seeds of doubt and unbelief away from the elect and into the face of the adversary; then the true seed of the word of faith will be planted in the good ground of my people once again, to bring forth much fruit, even some to 100-fold. The latter rain of My Holy Spirit is soon to be poured out without measure, so stand fast and be encouraged, for the great harvest of souls is drawing nigh. Faith is going to bloom once again in My good soil and produce mighty trees with an abundance of fruit that will do the works of the end-time move of the Spirit of God. The plowman is getting ready to overtake the reapers. Glory be to God. Note from Rex Veron: Praise God forevermore. I have had similar words in meetings from the Holy Ghost and especially since I have focused on finishing the Holy Ghost book. I firmly believe this to be a word of the Lord and that God will protect His children in the land of Goshen, wherever that is for each of us. I also know that as the false leadership becomes more deceived, the following scripture will become more prevalent as the Lord moves in His Man-child reformers: 1Ki.18:21 And Elijah came near unto all the people, and said, How long go ye limping between the two sides? if Jehovah be God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word. God answered by fire and put the deceivers to shame. Tribulations are Tests of Obedience Judy Gregerson - 04/02/2010 (R.M. and David's notes in red) I was walking around with someone, and a great windstorm whipped up. (Walking with the Lord as tribulation arises. Winds of false doctrine and tribulation are coming to test the saints in whether or not they are obeying the Word. We see here that after knowledge comes testing to see who has built on the Rock of obedience. Mat.7:24 Every one therefore that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them, shall be likened unto a wise man, who built his house upon the rock: 25 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon the rock. 26 And every one that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand: 27 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and smote upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall thereof. ... Eph.4:14 that we may be no longer children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error.) I was around these huge, old trees and branches started breaking off in the wind. This old growth was not strong; in fact, it looked rotten in these old trees. (The old churches, denominations, and ministries that refuse the new growth of the reformation message are being revealed as rotten and corrupt by the winds and storms of tribulation now whipping up in the world. Judgments in finances, politics, life, weather, earthquakes, wind, earth, and heaven change, etc. Joh.15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same beareth much fruit: for apart from me ye can do nothing. 6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If these old churches were of God, they would bring forth His fruit as the nature, character, and authority of Jesus. But even though they appear great in the eyes of man, inside they are rotten and dead.) And I kept walking and, finally, two or three small pieces of branches came flying at me. (People from the churches who come against us, especially their leaders, are just as they persecuted Jesus and His disciples.) One piece about two feet long hit me, but I felt no pain and wasn't hurt. But huge branches were falling all around on other things. (God's judgment on big church leaders and ministries as they FALL in tribulations.) I was amazed by the old growth. I was looking up in these trees, and I knew that this old growth (Christians walking in old tradition and error) was all going to be blown off these trees and hurt a lot of things on the ground, but it couldn't hurt me, even when it came FLYING at me with great power. (The Christians living close to the world will suffer as their false, apostate leadership is broken off and exposed. The falling branches of Christianity will come against and persecute the elect. Act.8:1 And Saul was consenting unto his death. And there arose on that day a great persecution against the church.) Weird, huh? (No, God gives strange dreams so we remember them.) Worldwide Holy Spirit Outpouring Samuel Paguaga - 09/21/2010 (David's notes in red) I think this dream tops all my spiritual dreams in its intensity and revelation. In it, I was in a small gathering of sorts. We were talking and then praying. A bit more had happened before that, but I think the point of this event is that none of what had happened before this mattered. All of a sudden, it was like when you step out of your home straight into the sun at noon. I was overwhelmed with light/energy, not as much as to blind the eyes, but more of a light/energy that penetrated to every cell and fiber of my body. I felt I was no longer physical or fleshly but a new being. As I looked straight forward in front of me, the physical world began to fade, but not because it was disappearing; it was because I began to perceive it in a new way, with new senses, and everything became almost transparent. I looked up and began to speak words in a new language. I was confessing something. Although I could not understand the words, I could feel them in my being. The words were energizing and vibrating my being, my frequency, my entity, my spirit. It was as if all of me became one: my spirit with my mind and my body. As I began to speak, my perception of my surroundings grew. I could feel, perceive, and see all those around me who were experiencing the same thing. First, the two people beside me; then, outwardly, the people in the place; then the whole block; then the city, and then the whole Earth. We, as disciples of Christ, were all one, not because we perceived each other, but because we were confessing the same words and because the same flow of energy or power of the Holy Spirit was flowing through us. Although there was a worldwide outpouring, only the vessels of glory, the vessels of light, were filled to the seal. (This could be the first fruits outpouring at the beginning of the Tribulation.) I could feel the power or energy flowing through me, vibrating every part of my being. I spoke words, and feelings became more and more intense, so much so that I could not even begin to describe them. I saw everything as white, yellowish, and orange lights, as if everything was transparent. I felt one with the source, at one with the words, and as one with everyone confessing these words. All these feelings of oneness occurred at three distinct levels. All of this, along with a feeling of peace; it was as if this was a new nature and I knew what it was. I experienced the whole thing even when I awoke. It seemed like I knew what was happening. I knew what the source was, what the energy or power was, and the meaning of the words. I woke up shortly afterward, possibly on the last word spoken, although in the dream it seemed like things would not be the same from that point on. As I awoke, I could almost feel the vibration of energy in my being as it dispersed into the normality of my awakened state. I always wondered, ‘What does it mean to be one with God and His Christ and His Spirit?'... and now I know. (The anointing of the Holy Spirit will perform this.)
Ever feel like you just can't take any more? ✋ Maybe you're in what we call the "Practical Wilderness." You've burned the plow, you're trying to follow God, but everything feels bone-dry. The car breaks, the kids are struggling, and the "rain" just isn't falling. This week, we're learning from the Prophet Elisha that only God can send the water, but sometimes He asks YOU to dig the ditch. Faith doesn't deny that the ground is dry; faith decides to believe what God SAYS over what you SEE. If you're waiting on a "Suddenly" from God, it's time to grab your shovel and start worshiping in the middle of your desert!
Jesus said that John the Baptist was the greatest one ever born of women. That is a huge statement. What made John so special? Well, for one, he was a man who did not bend to cultural shifts. He wasn't a reed shaken in the wind. But I think even bigger than that, he gave his life PLOWING THE ROAD FOR THE FUTURE. For the coming of the Messiah. Today, we will be challenged to PLOW THE ROAD FOR TOMORROW. ———————————————————————————————Gather your church essentials here for notes, prayer, events, etc:https://nbcc.com/church-essentialsConnect with us on Social Media:Instagram: instagram.com/nbccnorcoTikTok: tiktok.com/@nbccnorcoFacebook: facebook.com/nbccnorcoYouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6S-3n9PVnXm8zSPHAYVyGwWebsite: https://www.nbcc.com/----------------------------------------If you have any prayer requests or questions, please message us on our social media or send us an email at nbcc@nbcc.com.

Send a textEpisode 50: Plowing Forward: In this episode we discuss the importance of plowing forward, moving ahead, when you find yourself feeling stuck in your journey. Take the first step in plowing forward by listening to this episode today!
We discuss why North America's largest construction trade show, CONEXPO, is launching a new “Ground Breakers Stage” specifically aimed at spotlighting future innovation ahead, how industry leading trade associations like AEM and ABC took a ‘mixed fleet' outlook to collaborate on their respective innovation trends and efforts to bolster CONEXPO 2026, how AI-enabled heavy machinery autonomy specifically will be a major point of focus this year (and why that only further emphasizes the critical human element involved in all of this!), and finally why the broader set of digital tools permeating these sectors has moved from optional to a near must-do in your operations.
In this episode, I break down the "Tightrope of Choice" we discussed on Wednesday. We dive into the life of Joni Eareckson Tada and why "letting go" is actually an active, disciplined movement.Standout Quote: "True submission is an active alignment of our discipline with His direction."Sticky Idea: Praying and Plowing.

The Cooper and Anthony Show dives headfirst into the week's wildest headlines with their signature no-holds-barred, laugh-out-loud takedowns.In this episode, the duo unleashes on the bizarre saga surrounding Don Lemon—from his dramatic federal custody stint tied to that anti-ICE protest chaos to his defiant post-release mic-drop moments. They don't pull punches, roasting the drama, the optics, and everything in between.Then they pivot to the heartbreaking (and way too soon) news of Catherine O'Hara's passing at 71—the beloved comedy queen of Schitt's Creek, Home Alone, and so much more. Expect heartfelt tributes mixed with their classic irreverent humor as they celebrate her iconic career while being unapologetically savage about the absurdity of losing legends too early.And because no Cooper and Anthony episode is complete without going full savage mode, they turn their mean streak up to 11 on "plowing Philly"—tearing into whatever ridiculous, Philly-flavored mess (snowstorms? sports disasters? something way dirtier?) has the internet (and them) in stitches. Snarky, ruthless, and zero regrets.If you love sharp wit, zero filter, and hosts who will say the quiet part out loud (and then yell it), this is the episode that delivers the goods. Tune in for the laughs, the burns, and the takes so hot they might get them canceled... again.
Chris and Amy react to new footage of Alex Pretti who was gunned down by a federal agent last weekend in Minnesota; overall grade on snow removal in St Louis?; the 'BBQ Ninja' is coming to St Louis for the Cajun Cook-Off; Did you see this? is Costco's chicken too, 'chickeny'?
In The Dark (Bigfoot, Dogmen, Aliens, All Things Supernatural)
Kayla, my daughter in law, is out in the snow playing with her dog Pierre and it's adorable! His ears are going straight up and he's literally off the ground hopping looking like he's flying! He is so cute and fun! Plowing his head through the snow too! My son Cody is up in the window with our precious Tru Davis, their little baby boy! They look so cute! Kayla's laughter is amazing! I like to add some light things to this channel along with the dark and mysterious. We all need more light than dark. Enjoy!

When does comedy become more than a laugh? Ben Mangrum of MIT joins RtB to discuss his new book, The Comedy of Computation: Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Obsolescence (Stanford UP, 2025), which in some ways is organized around “the intriguing idea that human knowledge work is our definitive feature and yet the machines we are ourselves made are going to replace us at it.” Comedy has provided a toolbox (Charles Tilly calls them "collective repertoires") for responding to the looming obsolescence of knowledge workers.John's interest in Menippean satire within science fiction leads him to ask about about the sliding meanings of comedy and its pachinko machine capacity; he loves the way Ben uses the word and concept of doubling,; Ben explains how the computer may either queer (in an antisocial way) or get assimilated into romantic heteronormative pairings. John asks about Donna Haraway's 1985 A Cyborg Manifesto and teh way it denaturalizes gender roles and the way new technological affordances (from the Acheulean axe that Malafouris discusses to the Apple watch) redefine human roles. Ben delves into the minstrelsy pre-history of the photo-robots going as far back as the late 19th century. They unpack the distinctively American Leo Marxian optimism of The Machine in the Garden (1964) that spreads back as far as the proto-robots like The Steam Man of the Prairies(1868) and good old Tik-Tok in the Wizard of Oz novels. John asks about double-edged nature of Ben's claim that comic “genericity provides forms for making a computationally mediated social world seem more habitable, even as it also provides Is for criticizing and objecting to that world." First you get description says Ben--and then sometimes critique. John asks about the iterability of the new: how much of what seems new actually New New (in the sense of that great 1999 Michael Lewis book, The New New Thing)? Mentioned in the episode: The Desk Set a play William Marchand and a movie starring Katherine Hepburn. How might a computer be incorporated into the sociability of a couple? Her (Spike Jonze,, 2013) computer meets human makes the rom-com into a coupling machine. WarGames (1983( ends with Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy (not Ione Skye—silly John!) paired. But also with Broderick and the formerly deadly computer settling down to “how about a nice game of chess”? Black Mirror as the 2020's version of the same dark satire as the 1950's Twilight Zone. John asks about Stanislaw Lem's Cyberiad, and the comic coupling of Kirk and Spock and the death-as-computer comedy of Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1979). Leo Marx, The Machine in the Garden (1964). Dave Eggers: the joke structure as critique in The Circle and The Every. John Saybrook wrote in the New Yorker about an eye-opening conversation with Bill Gates in 1994. Istvan Csicsery-Ronay's Seven Beauties of Science Fiction on the “fictionalization of everyday life" Recallable Books: Elif Batuman The Idiot (2017) Richard Powers, Plowing the Dark (2000) Sally Rooney, Conversations with Friends (2017) Listen and Read here.

When does comedy become more than a laugh? Ben Mangrum of MIT joins RtB to discuss his new book, The Comedy of Computation: Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Obsolescence (Stanford UP, 2025), which in some ways is organized around “the intriguing idea that human knowledge work is our definitive feature and yet the machines we are ourselves made are going to replace us at it.” Comedy has provided a toolbox (Charles Tilly calls them "collective repertoires") for responding to the looming obsolescence of knowledge workers.John's interest in Menippean satire within science fiction leads him to ask about about the sliding meanings of comedy and its pachinko machine capacity; he loves the way Ben uses the word and concept of doubling,; Ben explains how the computer may either queer (in an antisocial way) or get assimilated into romantic heteronormative pairings. John asks about Donna Haraway's 1985 A Cyborg Manifesto and teh way it denaturalizes gender roles and the way new technological affordances (from the Acheulean axe that Malafouris discusses to the Apple watch) redefine human roles. Ben delves into the minstrelsy pre-history of the photo-robots going as far back as the late 19th century. They unpack the distinctively American Leo Marxian optimism of The Machine in the Garden (1964) that spreads back as far as the proto-robots like The Steam Man of the Prairies(1868) and good old Tik-Tok in the Wizard of Oz novels. John asks about double-edged nature of Ben's claim that comic “genericity provides forms for making a computationally mediated social world seem more habitable, even as it also provides Is for criticizing and objecting to that world." First you get description says Ben--and then sometimes critique. John asks about the iterability of the new: how much of what seems new actually New New (in the sense of that great 1999 Michael Lewis book, The New New Thing)? Mentioned in the episode: The Desk Set a play William Marchand and a movie starring Katherine Hepburn. How might a computer be incorporated into the sociability of a couple? Her (Spike Jonze,, 2013) computer meets human makes the rom-com into a coupling machine. WarGames (1983( ends with Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy (not Ione Skye—silly John!) paired. But also with Broderick and the formerly deadly computer settling down to “how about a nice game of chess”? Black Mirror as the 2020's version of the same dark satire as the 1950's Twilight Zone. John asks about Stanislaw Lem's Cyberiad, and the comic coupling of Kirk and Spock and the death-as-computer comedy of Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1979). Leo Marx, The Machine in the Garden (1964). Dave Eggers: the joke structure as critique in The Circle and The Every.

Hello to you listening in Woodbine, Georgia!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Maybe like me you endlessly churn old stories in your head: what you would have said, could have said, or should have said. Gets me nowhere. So, I'm learning how to shift out of my endlessly churning mindset with a farming tip. My maternal grandfather left his home in a small Polish village and came to this country as a teenager seeking a better life than the farm he grew up on. Here's what he used to say: “Diane, there's no profit in plowing the same furrow twice. Forgive. Forget. Let go. Harvest what's ahead of you.”Question: What about you? What's your best tip for letting go of what no longer works?You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Some of the more unhinged writing on superintelligence pictures AI doing things that seem like magic. Crossing air gaps to escape its data center. Building nanomachines from simple components. Plowing through physical bottlenecks to revolutionize the economy in months. More sober thinkers point out that these things might be physically impossible. You can't do physically impossible things, even if you're very smart. No, say the speculators, you don't understand. Everything is physically impossible when you're 800 IQ points too dumb to figure it out. A chimp might feel secure that humans couldn't reach him if he climbed a tree; he could never predict arrows, ladders, chainsaws, or helicopters. What superintelligent strategies lie as far outside our solution set as “use a helicopter” is outside a chimp's? https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/testing-ais-geoguessr-genius
