Ryan McDermott, author of Downriver: Memoir of a Warrior Poet and Former Senior Pentagon Official. This Father's Day, Let's Talk About the Invisible Weight Some Dads Carry Young People are Skeptical of the American Dream

In this powerful message, we're challenged to examine our spiritual lives through the lens of Lazarus' resurrection. The story in John 11 isn't just about physical resurrection, but spiritual rebirth and freedom. We're asked to consider: are we truly living in the fullness of our faith, or are we still bound by our 'grave clothes'? These grave clothes represent sins we can't leave behind, hurts we've received, or lies we've believed. The message reminds us that Jesus not only brings us to life spiritually but desires to set us free from these lingering bondages. We're encouraged to identify our own grave clothes and seek God's help in removing them, emphasizing that true freedom comes not just from being saved, but from fully embracing the new life Christ offers.

Rich discusses this week's findings of the 'Make America Healthy Again' Commission with Col. Josh McConkey, U.S. Air Force combat physician and author of "Be The Weight Behind The Spear." Next, Dr. Gilda Carle, author of "Real Men Don't Go Woke," explains how feminism has failed women. Later, as we observe Memorial Day, former Pentagon senior official and Army veteran Ryan McDermott shares his story in "Downriver: Memoir of a Warrior Poet." Learn more about your ad choices.

Leadership is more than a title—it's a calling to influence, inspire, and impact those around us. As ministry leaders, our responsibility isn't just to know what Jesus says in Matthew 5:13-16 about being salt and light—it's to live it out in every aspect of our leadership and ministry.  Today, we're diving into the question: Why and how do we influence? This is a crucial topic that will be explored at YPS by leaders like Pastor Eugene Cho and Dr. Kathy Koch, who bring deep wisdom and insight into what it means to lead with purpose. Why do you believe this topic is so important for leaders today? When we look at Matthew 5:13-16, how should we apply Jesus' words to our own leadership and influence? What are some key leadership insights you would share with leaders on how to maximize their personal leadership and influence?  Key Takeaways from Today's Discussion: Salt speaks to how we shouldn't compromise. Light speaks to the action of pointing others to Jesus—the decision is up to us. Leadership is not just positional—it's influential.

Genealogy, in Charles Darwin's terms, is the study of “descent with modification.” Taken as an analogy for the study of history, genealogy can guard against the potential dangers of claiming modernity. Against the effort to erase the past, genealogy asserts that our ancestry will always be with us. Against the effort to master the past, genealogy reminds us that our descendants have the freedom to create new futures. Sociologist Alondra Nelson tells the story of how African Americans have used DNA-informed genealogy to recover African identity despite slavery's erasure of family history. Genealogical thinking can help us shape a disposition to the past that recognizes the legacy of injustice while also fostering human flourishing in the future.

We often think of modernity as a distinct time period in history – one that is said to start at different places, but which always includes us. Yet people have been claiming to be modern since at least the third century BC. Harvard scholar Michael Puett takes us back to ancient China, when a series of emperors laid claim to modernity in order to consolidate their rule. Puett argues that modernity is best understood not as a period on a timeline but as a claim to freedom from the past. By recognizing how “modernity claims” try either to erase the past or to master it for our own uses, we can appreciate what is at stake in our own invocations of “modernity."

We all know many stories about how modernity came about. But what does it mean to be “modern”? This episode comes at the question through the test case of mountain climbing and rock climbing. Claims to becoming modern through climbing often point back to Italian humanist Francesco Petrarch's ascent of Mt. Ventoux in 1336, a climb that made him, according to many historians, “the first modern man.” But Petrarch was by no means the first person to climb Mt Ventoux, and his own account is, if anything, counter-modern. By surveying evidence of much earlier climbing in Europe and pre-contact North America, the episode argues that humans have always been climbing mountains and scaling cliffs for a wide variety of reasons. Only recently did they start to think of these achievements as making themselves “modern.” It turns out that to claim to be modern is one of the most modern things you can do.  Researcher, writer, and episode producer: Ryan McDermott, Associate Professor of English, University of Pittsburgh Featured Scholars:  Shannon Arnold Boomgarden, Director of Range Creek Field Station, University of Utah Larry Coats, Career-line Associate Professor of Geography, University of Utah Peter Hansen, Professor of History, Worcester Polytechnic Institute Dawn Hollis, Independent Historian Special thanks to: Jake Grefenstette, John-Paul Heil, Jason König, Michael Krom, Michael Puett Media and scholarship referenced: Hansen, Peter.

Winter mode is in full force here on the white isle, the temperatures have dropped, and the beaches and terraces aren't far from empty. We must admit, although the downtime is nice, we are missing the busy Mambo booth and the sunset strip very much!

Genealogy, in Charles Darwin's terms, is the study of “descent with modification.” Taken as an analogy for the study of history, genealogy can guard against the potential dangers of claiming modernity. Against the effort to erase the past, genealogy asserts that our ancestry will always be with us. Against the effort to master the past, genealogy reminds us that our descendants have the freedom to create new futures. Sociologist Alondra Nelson tells the story of how African Americans have used DNA-informed genealogy to recover African identity despite slavery's erasure of family history. Genealogical thinking can help us shape a disposition to the past that recognizes the legacy of injustice while also fostering human flourishing in the future.

This episode is brought to us by SpirituallyIncorrect: We all love a good story. We watch movies, listen to friends talk about their last vacation, or listen to podcasts (this one included) just to hear an entertaining and provocative tale. But one story trumps them all: the story of how we have arrived at our modern world. With technology evolving every year, drugs lessening the effects of illness, and possibilities undreamt of just a few decades ago, it's easy to imagine that the story of how we got here is one of triumph. We've conquered the stone age, overcome every obstacle, and now the march of progress of inevitable. Yet with lessening resources, dying environments, and threats of war and crises flavoring every news broadcast, it's time to ask, is the story we tell ourselves real? Or have we been lying to ourselves the whole time? Are we really progressing? Here to help us through this tricky issue is Dr. Ryan McDermott, who runs the Genealogies of Modernity project. If you've ever felt not at home in the modern world, this is the episode for you.
