Actor Miles Heizer details his difficult, yet "classic," gay coming out story, drawing parallels with his new show about a queer service member. We examine the painful legacy of conservative Christian upbringings and the societal expectation for queer individuals to share traumatic narratives. Despite increased acceptance, the conversation highlights the continuous struggle against religious-fueled homophobia and the irony of scrutinizing genuine coming out experiences.News Source:articles/boots-miles-heizer-coming-religious-170540919.htmlBy Unknown for Yahoo!

The U.S. Army cut funding for Catholic chaplain extracurriculars (like music class!) due to double-dipping and fiscal redundancy, sparking outrage that the world's wealthiest religious organization is being treated "like everybody else". We dissect this glaring waste of taxpayer money and question the constitutionality of the entire Chaplain Corps program, which promotes religion itself. Why are unqualified clergy leveraged as mental health counselors while simultaneously crying foul over losing budget for sacramental record-keeping?News Source:US Army at Odds with Catholic Chaplains over Religious Support ContractsBy Lara Corte for Stars and StripesNovember 5th, 2025

Childminders play a vital role in the early years of children's lives, offering care, stability and a familiar face during those formative years. But their numbers are in sharp decline. Many are no longer able to offer places for three and four year olds, citing government funding pressures. Today, Ofsted have released new figures on how many childminders are leaving and joining the profession. Childminder Georgina Young joins Nuala McGovern to share her experience of the joys and challenges of childminding, and what the future might hold for the profession.Saskia Reeves is the theatre, film and TV actor known for her many roles including Katherine Standish in the hit Apple TV series Slow Horses. She's now back at the National Theatre, in a new play, End – the last in a trilogy of plays by David Eldridge - Beginning and Middle – with Clive Owen, exploring love and relationships. Saskia joins Nuala to discuss. The Independent Commission on UK Counterterrorism has just published its report after three years. A long and detailed report, it estimates there are up to 70 UK-linked individuals, mostly women and children—most under 10 years old—believed to still be in camps or other detention centres in Iraq and Syria. Professor of Religion, Gender and Global Security, Katherine Brown, is one of the 14 commissioners. She explains why the women and children remaining in these camps is "unsustainable" and why an organised programme of return, rehabilitation, and integration is, they believe, the best long-term option for managing the risk to public safety. Frank Gardner, the BBC's Security Correspondent, joins them to discuss.Coroners' advice and concerns on maternal deaths in England and Wales are being ignored despite them raising repeated issues, a new study has found.

Rome began as a pagan, Latin-speaking city state in central Italy during the early Iron Age and ended as a Christian, Greek-speaking empire as the age of gunpowder dawned. Everything about it changed, except its Roman identity. This was due to a unique willingness among Romans to include new people as citizens, an openness to new ideas, and an unparalleled adaptability that enabled Romans to remake every aspect of their society in ways that made it stronger and more resilient. Romans, who believed that their city was originally settled by exiles and captives, found a balance between the embrace of new people and ideas and a conservative attachment to the core features that had traditionally defined Roman society. Roman history is a story of 80 generations of Romans who deftly challenged the rules governing their lives—and usually did so without overturning the institutions that made them safe and prosperous. In an age when people around the world are increasingly looking to charismatic leaders promising to scrap the rules governing modern states, Rome shows why states that want to endure should be repelled by the sudden, unpredictable jolts such characters provide. To explore this topic with us is today’s guest, Edward J. Watts, author of “The Romans: A 2000-Year History.” Rather than collapse, Watts shows how Rome endured, evolved, and redefined itself for two thousand years—from the Punic Wars to the Crusades, and from Augustus to Constantine to Charlemagne.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from inside the fish. He said, ‘I cried out to the Lord in my great trouble, and he answered me. I called to you from the land of the dead, and Lord, you heard me! You threw me into the ocean depths, and I sank down to the heart of the sea. The mighty waters engulfed me; I was buried beneath your wild and stormy waves. Then I said, “O Lord, you have driven me from your presence. Yet I will look once more toward your holy Temple.”'” Jonah 2:1-4The book of Jonah is without a doubt the most known book of the prophets and perhaps one of the most well known of the Old Testament. That is to say, most of the story is well known. From the earliest ages the story of Jonah and the fish or Jonah and the whale is taught in church classrooms around the world. But usually that story ends in chapter 2 . . . but there are still two more chapters to the book of Jonah and, you know what, the conversation today spends most of its time in chapter 4. To help us navigate the book of Jonah is Dr. T. Desmond Alexander, Senior Research Fellow in Biblical Studies at Union Theological College. So let's leave what you think you know about Jonah behind and strap in as Desi Alexander takes us on a really fun and thought-provoking journey into the book of Jonah. Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by Jason Wieland.

How many wounds do you carry?...

Have you ever noticed old messages about money, morality, or success still lingering—long after you've left a faith community or belief system that once shaped your world? In this episode, I sit down with licensed marriage and family therapist Emily Maynard to explore how growing up in or leaving a high-control religious environment can deeply influence your relationship with money. We talk about how these systems teach people—often from childhood—to view money through a moral lens: poverty as virtue, wealth as greed, or sacrifice as proof of goodness. For therapists who grew up in these spaces, those lessons can make it especially difficult to set boundaries, charge appropriately, or believe that rest and success are safe. Emily brings such grounded insight to this conversation. Together, we unpack what defines a high-control religion—not as a specific theology, but as a structure of control, shame, and rigidity that can leave lasting marks on how we see ourselves, our worth, and what we deserve. Healing Money Shame for Therapists with Religious Trauma Histories This episode is for you if you've ever wrestled with feeling selfish for wanting more stability, questioned your right to rest, or found yourself hustling to “earn” worthiness. (00:06:17) Religion Shapes Early Views on Money (00:09:31) Subtle Conditioning in Belief Systems (00:10:37) Healing After Leaving a Group (00:15:41) Sustainability in Healthcare Messaging (00:17:18) Money, Morality, and Control (00:23:16) Building a Sustainable Healing Practice (00:27:03) Money, Religion, and Belonging Breaking Free from Money Shame Rooted in High Control Religious Backgrounds Emily shares what she sees in her work with clients recovering from religious trauma: the body's lingering responses to old patterns, even years after intellectually moving on. We also explore how healing involves learning to make your own choices, rewriting your “job description” in private practice, and creating boundaries that allow sustainability without guilt. Here are a few action steps you can take toward breaking free: Notice the messages you absorbed early on. What stories about money, morality, or sacrifice still influence your financial decisions today? Practice autonomy with compassion. Try writing your own “job description” for private practice. What would feel fair, sustainable, and ethical for you? Challenge inherited shame. When guilt or fear shows up around charging for your work or taking rest, remind yourself: You are allowed to be well. Build new financial safety. Explore ways to connect money with care, not control—so your business can reflect your current values, not your old programming. If you've ever questioned your relationship with money after growing up in faith-based or high-control environments, this episode will help you begin healing the shame, rebuilding trust in yourself, and crafting a business that feels both grounded and free.

Interweaving memoir with Hebrew poetry, Going Out with Knots: My Two Kaddish Years with Hebrew Poetry (Jewish Publication Society, 2025) illluminates author Wendy I. Zierler's literary and personal Jewish mourning journey in the aftermath of unremitting personal loss. She begins with her story: the death of both her parents in one year; the challenges she faced as a woman saying Kaddish in an Orthodox synagogue; and her decision to teach a weekly class on modern Hebrew poems that addressed grief, prayer, and God wrestling. Each subsequent chapter delves into the works of a different modern Hebrew poet—Lea Goldberg, Avraham Ḥalfi, Yehuda Amichai, Rachel Morpurgo, Rachel Bluwstein, Ruhama Weiss, and Amir Gilboa—in the order in which she translated, interpreted, and taught their poems (many translated into English for the first time). Each poet, like Zierler, comes to writing deeply connected to Jewish tradition and yet at odds with it, too. Ultimately, Going Out with Knots reflects on how a woman living in a modern Orthodox community can claim a place in the male-centered rituals that Jewish tradition prescribes for mourning, and how immersion in modern Hebrew poetry can respond deeply to both communal (COVID-19, October 7) as well as personal losses, offering a new form of theology and Torah. Rabbi Dr. Wendy I. Zierler is Sigmund Falk Professor of Modern Jewish Literature and Feminist Studies at Hebrew Union College–Jewish Institute of Religion in New York and the coeditor of Prooftexts: A Journal of Jewish Literary History. She is the author of Movies and Midrash: Popular Film and Jewish Religious Conversation and And Rachel Stole the Idols: The Emergence of Hebrew Women's Writing and coeditor of These Truths We Hold: Judaism in an Age of Truthiness.

In this talk, Hogen Roshi explores the opening line of Affirming Faith in Mind—“The Great Way is easy”—and shows how quickly the mind complicates even the simplest instruction: just feeling our toes or our breath. Through humor, examples, and vivid demonstrations of how attention creates our experience moment by moment, he reveals how the body, thoughts, and sense of self arise and disappear with each flicker of awareness. He encourages practitioners to return again and again to direct experience—free of belief, story, or self-image—so the primal source of life can reveal itself. With clarity and compassion, Hogen emphasizes that the Way is both the easiest and the hardest thing in the world: resting with things exactly as they are.This talk was given during the 2025 Ancient Way Sesshin. ★ Support this podcast ★

The Todd Herman Show, produced by Grok:GROK - Podcast Episode Outline: "Faith in the Fight: How Democrats and Republicans Weaponize Christianity for Power"Episode Title: Faith in the Fight: How Democrats and Republicans Weaponize Christianity for PowerAir Date: Monday, November 17, 2025 (Recorded live from the studio on November 15)Host: [Your Host's Name], award-winning journalist and political commentatorProducer Notes: This episode unpacks the cynical ways both major U.S. parties invoke Christian faith to rally voters and justify policies in 2025's polarized landscape. With Trump's second term sparking debates over "Christian nationalism" via Project 2025 and Democrats countering with progressive "faith outreach" amid immigration raids and shutdown fallout, we'll highlight how scripture is twisted for electoral gain. Drawing on fresh polls, articles, and video clips, the show reveals the moral asymmetries and hypocrisies. Runtime: 50 minutes. Tone: Provocative yet balanced, blending outrage with nuance and guest debates. Music: Somber choral opener evoking hymns, shifting to urgent percussion for policy clashes.Episode Structure & Script Teaser1. Cold Open (0:00–3:00)Audio Hook: Montage of Trump's Bible-waving rally clips, Pelosi quoting St. Francis during the shutdown, and evangelical pastors endorsing deportations as "God's will."2. Segment 1: The Polls – What Christians Really Think (and Vote) (3:00–12:00)Focus: Dive into data showing stark divides: White evangelicals' lockstep GOP loyalty vs. Black Protestants' Democratic tilt, with independents disillusioned by both sides' faith pandering. Host reads synopses aloud, weaving in analysis on how parties exploit these splits.Key Talking Points:White Christians (41% of voters) gave Trump 72% support in 2024, per PRRI, seeing him as "God-ordained" (60% of white evangelicals agree). Republicans leverage this for anti-abortion and immigration policies framed as "biblical mandates."Black Protestants (83% for Harris) and Hispanic Catholics (50% Dem lean) prioritize social justice, which Democrats tie to "welcoming the stranger" (Matthew 25).Overall, 25% of voters believe God picked Trump; Christian nationalism correlates perfectly with Trump votes in red states. But 62% oppose declaring the U.S. a "Christian nation," signaling backlash to GOP theocracy pushes.Poll/SourceSynopsisLinkPRRI 2024 Post-Election American Values SurveyWhite Christians (41% of voters) backed Trump 72%, with 60% of white evangelicals believing God "ordained" his win; Black Protestants favored Harris 83%. Highlights GOP's "divine mandate" narrative vs. Dems' justice focus, but only 25% overall see God's hand in elections.PRRI.orgPew Research Center 2025 Survey on Religion & Politics59% of Protestants lean GOP, 50% of Catholics Republican (up from even split); 67% of Republicans want Bible influencing laws vs. 32% of Dems. Reveals parties' faith appeals: GOP pushes "Christian morals in policy," Dems emphasize church-state separation.PewResearch.orgPRRI 2025 State-Level Christian Nationalism SurveySupport for Christian nationalism (highest in MS/OK at 51%) perfectly correlates with Trump votes; 62% nationally oppose U.S. as "Christian nation." Exposes GOP's state-level theocracy push (e.g., embryo rulings) vs. Dems' opposition as "extremism."PRRI.org3. Segment 2: The Articles – Scripture as Strategy (12:00–28:00)Focus: Explore how Republicans fuse faith with nationalism (Project 2025) while Democrats rebrand as "compassionate Christians" on immigration and equity. Host discusses synopses, contrasting GOP's "moral restoration" with Dems' "perversion of Christianity" critiques.Key Talking Points:GOP: Project 2025 as "Christian nationalist fever dream," redefining freedom "by God, not man" to justify anti-LGBTQ+ and abortion bans.Dems: Shift to faith outreach (e.g., Pelosi's St. Francis invocation) to counter "Christian fascism," but accused of ignoring biblical basics like life sanctity.Both: Historical "poisonous bargain" since Reagan, turning faith into votes while eroding morals. X post [post:61] nails it: Pastors must call out Dem platform's "detestable" policies.Guest Spot: Historian [Guest Name] (e.g., Kristin Du Mez) debates a GOP strategist on whether Dems' "Christian socialism" or GOP's "theocracy" is the bigger threat.Producer Tip: Read X post [post:54] excerpt: "Dems enshrine sin in platform; GOP does not."

As we draw near to the end of the Gospel of Luke, Fr. Mike briefly expands on the story of the poor widow's offering, emphasizing that the Lord cares more about the size of our hearts than about the size of our gifts. Fr. Mike also underscores Jesus' moving words to Peter when he foretells Peter's denial. Jesus' words remind us that no matter how fiercely the enemy tries to attack us, he is always praying for each and every one of us. Today's readings are Luke 20-22:38 and Proverbs 26:17-19.
