After visiting Rome and exploring its churches, basilicas, religious art, and historic Christian sites, I came away with five important observations about Roman Catholicism, Protestantism, and the state of Christianity in Rome today.In this video, I examine the continued role of indulgences in Roman Catholic theology and practice, the prominence of Mary in Catholic devotion, and the way many of Rome's churches can feel more like museums than places of Christian worship. I also consider whether Rome is truly as Christian as it appears and why the theological issues raised during the Protestant Reformation still matter for Christians today.At the same time, Rome possesses a remarkably rich Christian history. From the witness of the early church to the legacy of Christian art, architecture, martyrs, and theologians, Rome remains an important place for understanding church history. The goal of this video is not simply to criticize, but to evaluate what I observed through the lens of Scripture and the gospel. What do you think? Is the Reformation over, or do the differences between Protestantism and Roman Catholicism still matter?00:00 - Is Rome Really Christian?00:29 - Five Lessons Rome Teaches About Roman Catholicism02:40 - Is the Protestant Reformation Over?11:26 - Indulgences in Modern Roman Catholic Theology19:56 - Are Rome's Churches Becoming Museums?23:10 - Mary in Rome: Veneration or Adoration?28:47 - Rome's Rich Christian History and TraditionSubscribe to Emet Ministries for more videos on Christian theology, church history, apologetics, Protestantism, Roman Catholicism, and how Christians can faithfully engage the culture.Check out these sources we love and use our Amazon Affiliate Link: Knowing God - https://amzn. to/3ScwPh4The Holiness of God - https://amzn. to/4ouI7sSThe Resurrection of Jesus - https://amzn. to/4ouitVeWhat is the Gospel - https://amzn. to/4oAFqpUWhat it means to be Protestant - https://amzn. to/3Qkt8W32,000 Years of Christ's Power Vol 1 - https://amzn. to/4edGaxF#romancatholicism #protestantreformation #rome #churchhistory #catholicism #travel

Editor: The State Board of Education's decision to add exclusively Christian Bible stories to the public-school reading list is not simply misguided. It is unconstitutional. Public schools are bound by the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, which prohibits government from endorsing or privileging any particular religion. When a state agency elevates Christian texts while excluding Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, and other religious or philosophical traditions, it abandons the neutrality the Constitution requires. Teaching about religion in an academic, historical, or literary context is entirely permissible. But doing so in a way that highlights one faith and omits all others... Article Link

Steven Pressfield is the bestselling author of titles such as Gates of Fire, Tides of War, and The Legend of Bagger Vance. He's also written numerous nonfiction books, such as The War of Art and Turning Pro. Collectively, his books have sold millions of copies and been translated into countless languages; Gates of Fire, in particular, is required reading at West Point and Annapolis and has been on the U.S. Marine Corps Commandant's Reading List for all ranks since 2002. But what I love about him is that he's incredibly open. He wrote for 27 years before he got his first novel published, and during that time, he worked 21 different jobs in 11 states. He taught school, drove tractor-trailers, worked in advertising and as a screenwriter in Hollywood, worked on offshore oil rigs, picked fruit as a migrant worker — you name it. His newest book is a novel called The Arcadian, and that's what we're getting into today. We're discussing the genesis of the book and how it maps onto many of the personal struggles we all overcome in our day-to-day lives, both as leaders and individuals. We also touch on a few topics that he's never really been asked before, as it pertains to his writing and why he can sometimes bounce in and out of writing both fiction and non-fiction. Regardless of your profession, you'll find something relatable here. He has a wonderful perspective and is a tremendous writer.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE: -Why fiction can be more effective at exploring deeper human truths than nonfiction when it comes to psychology, conflict, and motivation. -How great stories are effective because they keep the reader moving by planting breadcrumbs, small hints, and bits of information along the way. -How to improve your writing by honing your voice, finding the right voice for the project, and using a clear structure with recurring symbols and threads. -The things that still keep Steven curious and learning including the creative process, the Muse, and the idea that stories come from another dimension. -How he balances research with storytelling by grounding the reader in real details while still keeping the ideas organized and understandable   Follow Steven: https://www.instagram.com/steven_pressfield/?hl=en https://stevenpressfield.com/   Follow Us: Website: ArtofCoaching.com Instagram: @coach_brettb X: @coach_brettb

Looking for your next great read? In this episode, Marc shares five (okay, six!) books that have shaped how he thinks about mindset, power, and productivity, spanning over 60 years of publication.

Why one specific book is the most highlighted, dog-eared book in Marc's entire collection and what made it so impactful to him. The surgeon analogy that reframes what it really means to be "ruthless but not evil" when making tough decisions. What a famous rockstar's book taught Marc about treating yourself like a business, and why so many coaches resist that mindset. A formula from one of his favourite books for high-quality work, and why intensity of focus matters more than hours logged. The "one major initiative" strategy Marc got from a book that helps fight burnout, and how Marc restructured his own calendar around it. Why Marc no longer forces himself to finish a bad book, and what changed his mind on this over the years.

Was Clement of Rome a pope, as the Roman Catholic Church claims today? What does his letter to the Corinthians, 1 Clement, actually teach about church authority, unity, repentance, faith, leadership, and the resurrection? Clement of Rome is one of the most important early Christian voices outside the New Testament and a bridge from the Apostles to the Patristic era of the church. His letter to the Corinthians, the same church Paul wrote to, was written during a major conflict: certain church leaders had been removed, jealousy and division had taken root, and the church needed correction. In this video, Christian Barrett walks through his letter, 1 Clement, discusses whether the early church in Rome held to the same authority as later Roman Catholic claims describe, and how Clement exhorts us to unity, rest in Christ, and endurance to the end. Whether you are Protestant, Roman Catholic, Orthodox, or simply interested in early church history, 1 Clement offers a remarkable window into Christianity in the wake of the apostles, and is worth a serious look.

Most companies unwittingly undermine their biggest growth opportunities by ignoring the complex morality of social media—where good technology depends on who controls it, and who benefits. Hosted by Eleanor Drage, this episode features Crystal Abidin, Professor of Internet Studies at Curtin University, who exposes the hidden power plays behind platforms like TikTok, revealing how what's 'good' or 'bad' technology is often a matter of perspective—and power.This eye-opening episode, Eleanor and Crystal explore how social media's ambivalence shapes youth cultures and influence—covering TikTok's surprising origins, from climate activism to viral animals, and how state bans and geopolitical tensions transform global online communities. Crystal breaks down how content creators, from neurodivergent communities to cultural niche groups, leverage memes, humor, and subcultural capitals to forge solidarity and push back against systemic inequities.Reading List:https://wishcrys.com/TikTok Cultures Research NetworkHer work:Abidin, Crystal. 2026.

Soccer is the world's most popular sport, yet its origins are shrouded in chaos, and its modern “analytics” are often flawed. ⚽ HOW TO WATCH SOCCER LIKE A GENIUS (Abrams Press, May 12, 2026) by Nick Greene https://amzn.to/4eVb8ve ⚽ Author Nick Greene joins The Brian D. O'Leary Show to dismantle everything you thought you knew about “the beautiful game”. Using insights from architects, stuntwomen, paleoanthropologists, and computer scientists, we tear into the history of soccer's bizarre early rules and expose why American youth player development is fundamentally broken. Timed with the World Cup coming to North America, this conversation uncovers soccer's shared roots with American football and rugby, revealing a time when the sport featured fair catches and touchdowns. We dig into how the introduction of the FA Cup forced a standard set of rules, and contrast Scotland's early tactical advantage through passing with England's aristocratic refusal to share the ball. We also explore a disastrous 1940s analytics study that set English tactics back decades, the space-warping genius of Lionel Messi, and the absurd limits of modern optimization. Finally, we celebrate, but Greene critiques, the American youth soccer focus on the “battering ram” approach over actual technique. Subscribe at https://OLearyReview.com for more from UNRELENTING – The O'Leary Review. Conversation Highlights (Chapters) The World Cup and Unlikely Soccer Experts The Shared DNA of Soccer, Rugby, and American Football Freemasons, Fair Catches, and the FA Cup Scotland's Passing vs. England's Selfishness The RAF Pilot Who Ruined English Tactics Why the Best Team Doesn't Always Win Lionel Messi's Space-Warping Genius Tottenham's Showers and the Limits of Analytics Could Shaq Have Revolutionized Soccer? Key Takeaways Shared Roots: Soccer, rugby, and American football share the same origins. Early soccer even featured fair catches and touchdowns. The Forward Pass: Scotland dominated early international soccer by embracing a passing game, while wealthy English players selfishly refused to pass the ball. Bad Math: A flawed 1940s study by a retired RAF pilot convinced English soccer that passing was useless, leading to a long era of “caveman long ball tactics”. Mastering Space: Lionel Messi changes the gravity of the field, often accomplishing more by walking through space than other players do by sprinting. The Battering Ram: American youth soccer prioritizes winning through sheer size, whereas elite global academies focus entirely on technique. Tweetable Quotes “The fact that the best team doesn't always win is… the most to me, natural human thing about soccer.” - Nick Greene “People who don't watch or aren't interested in sports are missing out because it's such a Rosetta Stone.” - Nick Greene “They're learning how to be battering rams and kick the ball to the battering ram.” - Nick Greene Resources Mentioned HOW TO WATCH SOCCER LIKE A GENIUS (Abrams Press, May 12, 2026) by Nick Greene: https://amzn.to/4eVb8ve Hoosiers (1986): https://amzn.to/43hOfuS (Disclosure: As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.)

Book Club Podcast: Fiber art veterans Susan Bateman and Melissa Parsons compare notes with host Anne Merrow about the books every weaver, spinner, knitter, and crocheter should have on the bookshelf—plus big news about a classic weaving directory. They're the first books you reach for, the ones you'll never part with, and the first thing you recommend to every new crafter. If you have only one book on weaving, spinning, knitting, and crochet, make it one of these. In this episode of the Long Thread Podcast, three book lovers talk about what reading material we'd never be without. Multishaft Weavers Technique Books Learning to Weave by Deborah Chandler The classic book on four-harness weaving, this updated edition includes clear and approachable explanations, illustrations, and instructions for warping both from front to back and back to front. Weaving for Beginners, Revised and Updated by Peggy Osterkamp Another look at weaving fundamentals, Osterkamp's thorough book is especially strong in back-to-front warping. Pattern Directories Big news for “The Green Book”—A Handweaver's Pattern Book by Marguerite Porter Davison The first version of Davison's four-harness pattern directory was published in 1944, and weavers have been hunting for used copies since it went out of print decades later. A group of weavers has been quietly working on a major new edition, with new samples woven in color and contemporary drafts, which Schiffer Publishing will release in 2027! Handwoven and Yarn Barn of Kansas join the crowd of weavers eager to add the new book to our shelves. A Weaver's Book of 8-Shaft Patterns from the Friends of Handwoven, edited by Carol Strickler Organized by structure and endlessly browsable, this is the book 8-shaft weavers keep within reach when dreaming up a new project. Rigid-Heddle Weavers Ashford Book of Rigid Heddle Weaving by Rowena Hart A thorough guide to the fundamentals, this is unbeatable for its step-by-step warping and threading photography. Inventive Weaving on a Little Loom by Syne Mitchell This creative and ambitious book shows you ways of weaving that you never thought possible on a rigid-heddle loom. The useful "tech support" section offers troubleshooting suggestions for common mistakes. Knitters Vogue Knitting: The Ultimate Knitting Book Clear, well organized, and full of photos and illustrations, this book has taken more knitters from scarves to sweaters than any other, with basics on everything from individual stitches to garment design. Principles of Knitting by June Hemmons Hiatt For the knitter who wants to understand the mechanics behind every technique, this reference book dives deeply into the hows and whys of every knitting topic. Crocheters How to Crochet by Sara Delaney Small, affordable, and exactly right for getting started. The Crocheter's Skill-Building Workshop by Dora Ohrenstein Once you're past the basic stitches, this book teaches you construction, shaping, texture, and other intermediate and advanced topics. Spinners The Spinner's Book of Yarn Designs by Sarah Anderson Friendly, comprehensive instructions for yarns from simple plied yarns to complex layers of twist and grist. Don't be fooled by the textured yarns on the cover—this is not just for art-yarn spinners; Anderson's studies on durability and suggestions for use make this a must-have for any spinner. The Fleece & Fiber Sourcebook by Deborah Robson and Carol Ekarius The Field Guide to Fleece by Deborah Robson and Carol Ekarius Not just for spinners, these fiber resources—the one always on your bookshelf and the smaller version you take to a festival—include details about the sources, traits, and uses of more animal fibers than you ever knew existed. Listen to our chat and tell us: Do you agree? What craft books make your must-have list? This episode is sponsored by: Learning how to weave but need the right shuttle?

White Donkey: Terminal Lance is the first and only graphic novel featured on the Commandant's Reading List, a testament to both Max and the Reading List. We talk about his service and his transition to becoming a professional artist, how Terminal Lance came to be, the genesis behind White Donkey, and his thoughts on having the first graphic novel on the CPRL.

"My advice is to be careful what you read online. I have found that even resources claiming to represent Reformed Baptist views are often very selective in their sources. For example, if a work lays claim to a Baptistic historical view but doesn't include Roger Williams or Isaac Backus in any meaningful way, it shouldn't be taken seriously. Men like Murton and Williams are the historical core of the idea of soul liberty and cannot be ignored if one wants to reach credible conclusions." -Ron MillerFor more information, visit CBTSeminary.org
