From the end of the American Civil War to the start of World War II, the Protestant missionary movement unintentionally tilled the soil in which American Islamophobia would eventually take root. What ideas did missionaries in Islamic contexts pass on to later generations? How were these ideas connected to centuries-old Protestant discourses about Muslims and gender beginning in the Reformation? And what bearing does this history have on the birth of Islamophobia and on Christian-Muslim dialogue efforts in the US today? In answering these questions, Re-inventing Islam traces the gender constructs that have informed historical Protestant perceptions of Islam, especially in the far-reaching textual, visual, and material influences of the American and British movement for missions to Muslims. This book first considers Protestant discourse about Muslim women and men from the Reformation to the Enlightenment. Then it turns to the colossal archive of literature, images, and cultural objects that missionaries--and particularly missionary women--collected from Islamic contexts and used to inform and motivate their constituents.Anglo-Protestants in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries perpetually re-invented stereotypes about Muslims and used these negative images to achieve particular Protestant theological and political purposes, including missionary aims. They did so when disseminating gender critiques widely to Protestant men, women, and children. Why did they re-invent Islam? Deanna Ferree Womack argues that they did so to reinforce Protestant theological claims, to justify their evangelistic endeavors, to express both humanitarian concern and Eurocentric views of the world, and to support British and American cultural, economic, and military expansion. Simultaneously, however, this same missionary movement educated its constituents about diverse Islamic cultures, in part by providing humanizing images of Islam. Missionaries also formed personal relationships with Muslims that would open pathways toward formal efforts of Christian-Muslim dialogue after the mid-twentieth century. Americans have inherited all of these legacies. In revisiting this history readers will find new possibilities for building a more open and just future. Learn more about your ad choices.

How does the past define our future?

„Wenn Süßes einfach und ehrlich ist, braucht es keinen Zucker – nur gute Ideen und eine starke Vision.“ – Martin Greller (djoon inspiriert) Willkommen bei „Zuckerfrei beginnt im Kopf“! In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Martin Greller , Mitgründer von djoon, deren Dattelpralinen nur aus wenigen, natürlichen Superfood-Zutaten bestehen: Medjool-Datteln, 100% Kakao und nussige oder fruchtige Füllungen – komplett ohne Zuckerzusatz. Wir tauchen ein in die Geschichte hinter djoon und sprechen darüber, wie aus der Idee, gemeinsame Naschmomente zu schaffen, Schritt für Schritt eine Marke wurde, die für bewussten Genuss steht. Du erfährst, wie Martin die Dattel als „Superfrucht“ für sich entdeckt hat, warum sie im Vergleich zu vielen herkömmlichen Süßigkeiten mehr Nährstoffe und weniger leere Kalorien mitbringt und welche Rolle Werte wie Fairness, Bio‑Qualität und ehrlicher Geschmack bei jeder neuen Sorte spielen. Außerdem geht es darum, wie man ein Food-Startup aufbaut, warum Trends wie „Back to the Roots“ und natürliche Zutaten solchen Projekten Auftrieb geben und wie bewusster Genuss im Alltag gelingen kann, ohne ständig in die Zuckerspirale zu rutschen.

In this conversation, Kelsi Sheren discusses the recent terrorist attack in Australia, emphasizing the implications of cultural assimilation and the dangers posed by extremist ideologies. She critiques the response of Western societies to terrorism and the media's portrayal of such events, calling for stronger immigration policies and a reevaluation of how these ideologies are addressed. Sheren argues that the current empathetic approach is leading to increased violence and that a more aggressive stance is necessary to protect Western values and communities.00:00 The Unfolding Tragedy in Australia03:02 Cultural Assimilation and Its Consequences05:53 The Role of Ideology in Violence09:01 The Response of Western Society12:07 The Need for Action Against Terrorism14:54 Understanding the Roots of Hatred17:53 The Future of Western Ideology21:03 Concluding Thoughts on Terrorism and Society - - - - - - - - - - - -One Time Donation! - Paypal - https://paypal.me/brassandunityBuy me a coffee! - https://buymeacoffee.com/kelsisherenLet's connect!Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@thekelsisherenperspectiveInstagram -  https://www.instagram.com/thekelsisherenperspective?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw%3D%3DX: https://x.com/KelsiBurnsSubstack:  https://substack.com/@kelsisherenTikTok -   https://x.com/KelsiBurnsListen on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1O3yiobOjThKHtqyjviy1a?si=6c78bdc2325a43aeSUPPORT OUR SPONSORS - - - - - - - - - - - -Ketone IQ- 30% off with code KELSI - https://ketone.com/KELSIGood Livin - 20% off with code KELSI - https://www.itsgoodlivin.com/?ref=KELSIBrass & Unity - 20% off with code UNITY  - http://brassandunity.com- - - - - - - - - - - - -CHARITYHeroic Hearts Project - https://www.heroicheartsproject.orgDefenders of Freedom - https://www.defendersoffreedom.usBoot Campaign - https://bootcampaign.org

​​In this conversation, Emily sits down with author, educator, and speaker Caroline J. Sumlin to explore the ideas behind her groundbreaking book, We'll All Be Free: How a Culture of White Supremacy Devalues Us and How We Can Reclaim Our True Worth.

Most hesitation around hypnosis isn't about hypnosis itself—it's about trust, safety, and autonomy. When those are addressed clearly and respectfully, people tend to relax and decide for themselves whether it's a fit.Most hesitation around microdosing isn't about curiosity—it's about uncertainty. The science is incomplete, the legal landscape is uneven, and responses vary widely between individuals. For many people, not knowing is the deciding factor.The questions that we receive from our respective communities around hypnosis and microdosing come down to themes around:Safety (mental, physical, legal)Lack of trustworthy, long-term dataFear of unintended psychological changeMoral or identity-based uncertainty (“Is this who I want to be?”)So ahead of our proprietary program Hypnodosing TM 2026, we wanted to address these concerns and questions to bring you the most up to date information as well as our first hand accounts.You can learn more about Hypnodosing TM 2026 or sign up for our Dry January program at:https://www.microdosetogether.com/product-page/hypnodosing-dry-january-program?utm_campaign=9097eb66-65ed-4e5a-b042-7ed32900e738&utm_source=so&utm_medium=mailhttps://www.microdosetogether.com/or at The Roots of Health Coaching https://www.therootsofhealthcoaching.com/With Love,Jessica and SaraSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/mindful-drinking-for-women/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Hey y'all, welcome back to the Roots and Refuge Podcast. Today's episode is a tender one. It's about fully living in the season you're in even when that season is uncomfortable, uncertain, or deeply painful. I'm sharing honestly about the past year our family has walked through: fertility treatments, hope, loss, surrender, and the quiet work of trusting the Lord with desires I cannot carry on my own. I talk about what it's been like to hold an open heart as my older children step into young adulthood, and how grief and longing have sharpened my awareness of what is right in front of me. This episode isn't about escaping hard seasons or rushing toward what comes next. It's about presence. About resisting the pull to live in the past or anxiously project ourselves into the future. About the truth that not everything that feels uncomfortable is bad and that being fully present may be the greatest gift available to us right now. I share reflections on living seasonally not just in the garden or the kitchen, but in the soul. I  call it combing out the tangles of the heart and trusting God's steady presence in the midst of it all. If you've been navigating a season of waiting, loss, transition, or quiet surrender, I hope this episode feels like a chair pulled up beside you. You can also continue this conversation with me over on my new Substack, A Life In Season, where I'm writing more deeply about living present and faithful in every chapter of life. In this episode I also referenced a past episode with my friend Regan. You can hear that podcast here.  Thanks for being here, and for walking alongside me in every season.  If you've found value in this project, consider supporting the podcast on Patreon, where you can listen early and join our monthly Q&A. As always, I bless you until next time.

This week's conversation with Cochemea Gastelum brings our season to a close. The saxophonist and bandleader joins us to discuss his beautiful LP Ancestros Futuros, out now on Daptone Records. Mining his Indigenous roots, soul jazz, and funk, it's a fantastic album, and it completes a trilogy that began with 2019's All My Relations, continued with 2021's Baca Sewa, and now concludes.  Cochemea's resume is lengthy. He worked extensively with the late soul singer Sharon Jones as part of her Dap Kings ensemble and has played with the Budos Band, Antibalas, Robert Walter's 20th Congress, Archie Shepp, Public Enemy, the Roots, David Byrne, and more. Genre-hopping comes naturally to the San Diego-raised saxophonist, but the cultural conversation that occurs on these records is especially unique, and it was a pleasure to have him join us to discuss it.  Transmissions is created in partnership with the Talkhouse Podcast Network. We're brought to you by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Aquarium Drunkard⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, an independent music media crew headed by Justin Gage.

Understanding Taoism with Jason Gregory Jason Gregory is a student of the world's spiritual traditions. He is the author of The Science and Practice of Humility. Jason Gregory is an author, philosopher, and teacher whose work draws from Eastern philosophy, comparative religion, psychology, cognitive science, metaphysics, and ancient cultures, bridging timeless wisdom with contemporary understanding. Jason Gregory explores the essence of Taoism, emphasizing its critique of social conditioning and its guidance toward naturalness, spontaneity, and effortless being. He explains how Taoist ideas intersect with Buddhism, Confucianism, Hinduism, and wider metaphysical traditions, revealing a shared vision of an undivided reality beneath cultural structures. Gregory also discusses practices such as wu wei, aimless wandering, and inner alchemy as pathways for aligning with the Dao in modern life.

The Winter Solstice is not just the longest night of the year, it is a threshold. In this episode, we explore the quiet, often uncomfortable space between endings and beginnings. The place where something has finished its work, but what comes next has not yet taken shape. Using the language of nature, we reflect on why releasing can feel so unsettling, especially when our culture offers little ceremony for endings. We also weave in perimenopause as a powerful threshold season in a woman's life: a time when the body often knows before the mind that something must change. Energy shifts. Tolerance narrows. What once felt sustainable no longer nourishes the roots. This episode is an invitation to listen to your body, your intuition, and the subtle signals that something is ready to be released.

There's something rare about a conversation that reminds you not just what's possible in business, but what should be possible. On the latest episode of Left Standing, Susanna Barkataki — founder of Ignite Institute and Yoke Yoga, bestselling author, TEDx speaker, and social justice educator — shares how she's built a business that balances abundance with integrity.“I do think how you define success and constantly reevaluating what that success looks like… you can have a super values-aligned business practice and be successful,” Susanna says. “My goal initially was just to replace my teaching salary… But then the possibilities for abundance surprised me, and the question became: What do I do with that abundance?”For Susanna, success isn't a number on a spreadsheet — it's a moral and spiritual question. She's committed to changing the face of yoga. “If people of color, queer folks, trans folks, different abilities aren't seeing themselves as yoga teachers… it's hard to imagine it. So I make programs that make that possible.”We also discuss practical frameworks for building a business with heart: listen to the market, anchor your offerings, and don't discount yourself. And when it comes to scaling ethically? Teamwork is essential. Susanna shares the importance of investing in people: “My best investments are in my team. Having a tech VA, social media manager… I could not have gone as far as I've gone without the right people.”Susanna's approach is a masterclass in aligning purpose with profit — proving that you can build a thriving business while staying true to your values.Listen to the full episode of Left Standing to hear Susanna's story, her insights on defining success on your own terms, and her advice for anyone trying to create impact without compromise.About Susanna Berkataki: Susanna Berkataki is the founder of Ignite and Yoke Yoga, bestselling author of Ignite Your Yoga and Embrace Yoga's Roots, a TEDx speaker, and an advocate for social justice through yoga. Her work integrates spirituality, psychology, and community-based healing, helping people and organizations thrive ethically and sustainably. This is a public episode.

Today's Red Line Roots podcast guest is songwriter and multi instrumentalist Andrew Brozek. I first met Andrew through a mutual friend and luthier, got to know his music and we  filmed some session work with he and his mandolinist friend Eli Smith…Andrew is also our December artist of the month.His music borders on folk, bluegrass and country…boiled down, I would call it in some ways the “Watchhouse effect”. Songs focused on introspection, with melody and smart instrumentation choices at the core of the music.A few years back he released a collection of tunes called 'Cant You See I'm Happy' and just followed that release up with a single called 'Too Many Times a Day.'Its been a while since I had spoken with Andrew as he recently graduated from Dartmouth (about 30 minutes from me), moved back to Montana (not at all 30 minutes from me) for the summer and now finds himself in Indianapolis. We get into writing process, influence and finding our community…something he is finding his footing with right now in his new home base.I hope you all enjoy…and this marks a semi regular return to some episodes and conversations with musicians…here we go.https://www.andrewbrozekmusic.com/https://www.instagram.com/andrew.brozek.music/reels/?__d=1%2F
