* You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2025Messages/25Nov30.pdf * Over the past couple of weeks we have considered the Priesthood of the Messiah. The authenticity of His Priesthood is critical for authoritativeness of His Propitiatory Sacrifice by which the New Covenant was established once for all. * Today, we begin considering the apex of this book. This is to which the author has been building. Messiah - God Incarnate - came to establish a New and Living Way through the Veil by offering Himself as the Perfect Sacrifice for our sins. * Today, we see that God had many different aspects of His redemptive plan working in harmony and pointing toward the ultimate payment for our sins! * Lord willing, next week we will consider the Presentation of the Ultimate Sacrifice. Then, in two weeks, consider in much greater detail the passage that we have been memorizing to consider the Pertinence of the Covenant in the Activities of the Church. * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on November 30, 2025 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

What if the best Christmas you ever gave your family had nothing to do with what was under the tree? In this episode, Kent and Lawson talk honestly about money pressure, comparison, and the expectation that "good dads" should deliver a huge Christmas every year. They share stories from tight-budget Decembers, laugh about Buzzsaw Louie and Tesla wish lists, and then slow down long enough to ask a better question: What is all this gift giving actually teaching our kids? Walking through passages like Psalm 107 and Acts 20, they unpack the difference between generosity and consumerism, why it is more blessed to give than receive, and how to reset unrealistic expectations before Christmas morning. You will pick up practical ideas like simple Advent rhythms, service-based "gifts," low or no cost traditions, and creative ways to bless neighbors, teachers, and exhausted young parents without adding financial stress. Whether this year has been lean or abundant, this conversation will help you point your kids away from "who got the biggest gift" and back to the Savior who never changes. As we head into this year's Christmas season, remember, you are not a father on accident, so go be a father on purpose. We've launched video now!

On this Outlast Podcast, We break down Survivor 49, Episode 10, “Huge Dose of Bamboozle.” We dig into how the core trio continues to run the game like an old school alliance, why Rizzo's fake idol play might be the moment he tips into overconfidence, and how Savannah's extra vote turns tribal council into a brutal blindside.We also spend time on Christina's emotional journey, from opening up about her mom's passing with Jeff at the challenge to pushing through a brutal balance beam that tests her physically and mentally. From there, we talk about Sophie's immunity win, the shifting target on Savannah and Steven, and how everyone's “resume” is starting to define who feels safe and who should be terrified.To wrap up, we look ahead to what the preview sets up for Sophie and Sage, touch on the “On Fire” podcast reactions, and call out some wild fake news floating around Survivor Facebook about Mike White.00:00 – 02:00Thanksgiving talk, family Survivor chat, and why this season feels different from last season's Joe and Ava storyline.02:00 – 06:30The trio's dominance, Rizzo's fake idol performance at tribal, and whether he's slipping into dangerous overconfidence.06:30 – 11:30Christina's grief, Jeff asking her to talk about her mom, and how Survivor has shifted into a more compassionate, human-focused show.11:30 – 17:30Reward challenge at the Sanctuary: burgers, hot dogs, chocolate cake, wild new obstacles, and Christina's huge moment on the balance beam.17:30 – 21:30Hunger, exhaustion, and how gaunt everyone looks back at camp; Rizzo's guilt, Joanne trying to keep morale up, and the emotional wall the cast is hitting.21:30 – 26:00Immunity challenge breakdown, the rice offer, why nobody is taking food deals in the new era, and how the 26-day game can still feel harsher than the old 39-day format.26:00 – 30:30Idols and advantages everywhere: flushing Christina and Rizzo's power, Savannah's extra vote, and whether Sophie should flip to a new alliance while playing to the jury.30:30 – 35:30Tribal council fireworks: Rizzo's fake idol show, Christina playing her real idol for Steven, Savannah's extra vote, and Joanne's blindside exit.35:30 – 37:30Next-episode preview, favorite winner picks (Sophie and Christina), Facebook fake news about Mike White, “On Fire” takeaways, and closing thoughts.Christina's grief over her mom adds real emotional weight to the episode, especially during her conversation with Jeff and her grind through the reward challenge.Sophie goes from under-edited to essential, winning immunity and sliding into a key strategic position between the trio and the floaters.Savannah's extra vote is used perfectly to flip the script at tribal and send Joanne home in a clean blindside.The shortened 26-day era is still brutal, with players visibly starving and emotionally raw by the back half of the game.Trust is crumbling everywhere: idols are hidden, information is weaponized, and even close allies openly talk about blindsides as “expected.”Social media and “On Fire” with Jeff Probst are now part of the meta-game, shaping how fans and even players look at moves like Rizzo's fake idol and the rice offers.“You have to assume a lot of people are lying. Even in your alliance, you can't take anything at face value this deep in the game.”“Some of the best Survivor moments are when someone everyone doubts digs in and proves they belong in that challenge.”“If everything feels too good to be true at tribal, you should probably expect a blindside.”“Christina might not win, but getting to the end with that story would still be huge.”“The trio is so confident in their control that they're putting on a show for the jury while everyone else is just trying to survive.”Stay connected with Outlast and the Geek Freaks Network:Outlast on Twitter: @OutlastPodcast1

Pastor John Randall is knee deep in his study of Hebrews, and we're taking our time here in the early part of chapter nine, so we consider how the Tabernacle is a picture of Christ. Even the furniture contained in it, points to Jesus. It speaks volumes about how we're not to go back to the Old Covenant like the Hebrews were doing.

Leverage Your Incredible Factor Business Podcast with Darnyelle Jervey Harmon, MBA
This episode is powered by The Seven Figure Shift 3-Day Workshop with Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon “Your business will always expose what you haven't healed." Darnyelle Jervey Harmon It's not your funnel. It's not your launch. It's not your marketing or your team. It's your nervous system. In this final installment of the For the Love of Money series, Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon pulls back the veil on the hidden forces sabotaging your revenue, no matter how brilliant you are or how many millions you've made. If you've ever felt stalled, burned out from striving, or stuck in a silent spiral of sabotage... this episode is going to feel like spiritual surgery. We go deep into the three invisible money traps that plague high-level CEOs, and why the real cost isn't just missed revenue, but missed purpose, peace, and legacy. If you're a 7-figure CEO in the making, or already at seven but silently circling six, this conversation is your mirror, your map, and your mandate to move. We don't do surface-level here. We excavate patterns, confront your subconscious thermostat, and call in the healing required for your next level. Here's the truth: You cannot build legacy in a body that doesn't feel safe with overflow. Until you address your nervous system's rejection of abundance, your strategy will keep stalling, and you'll keep thinking it's a business problem when it's really a money identity crisis. Scaling without safety isn't leadership. It's survival. And that pattern ends here. You'll walk with a visceral understanding of why your income keeps resetting, no matter how hard you work, the three survival-mode traps successful entrepreneurs unconsciously fall into, a new lens for viewing launches, hiring, pricing, and burnout through a nervous system and spiritual healing framework and clear next steps to begin healing your money trauma, and a powerful invitation into the only container designed to do just that: SANCTUARY. Grab your Move to Millions Podcast Notebook, a pen and your favorite beverage and listen in to discover: ✔ How to recognize when your growth ceiling is actually a safety ceiling, not a strategy gap ✔ How to identify whether you're stuck in the Stall, the Strive, or the Sabotage pattern ✔ How to shift from money-based panic into identity-based overflow using spiritual and somatic integration ✔And so much more This episode is a call to put your strategy down long enough to get honest about what's really running your business behind the scenes: your unhealed money story. Dr. Darnyelle doesn't just name the subconscious sabotage patterns holding you back, she brings receipts, neuroscience, scripture, and personal stories to show you the real reason your growth feels stuck, stalled, or suffocating. This is spiritual alignment meets somatic safety meets unapologetic truth. And it's everything you didn't know you needed before you scale again. This is your invitation to stop pushing. Stop performing. Drop the mask, press play, and listen like your future depends on it, because it does. If you've built the business but your peace is bankrupt, or you've hit new revenue highs but secretly feel more pressure than prosperity, this episode will explain why… and show you how to heal it.

Do I consistently undercharge, overgive, or procrastinate—despite knowing better? Have I ever burned down something good and called it a pivot?

We are sending Diablo back to hell.... again... Shane Selterre of the Retro Hangover Podcast returns to help me save Sanctuary again as we discuss Diablo 2. Diablo 2 is a very personal game for me. It was one of my earliest PC LAN party gaming experiences and it served as major game for me and a lot of my friends growing up. But what makes Diablo 2 special outside of my personal nostalgia for it? Shane and I discuss all of that in this episode. We look at what changed between the original Diablo and this one. We look at how this game is basically became the template for ARPG games for years. We talk about so much and yet only scratch the surface. Who knows, maybe Shane will be back for us to dive further beyond the surface, further into the depths of Hell.

Custom Mary I wish I had a dollar for every time I've heard someone say, "It's just man's tradition. It's just a custom." At its worst misunderstanding, the tradition or custom is seen adversarial to Torah obedience and as evil. As a simply uninformed understanding, it's a lack of research or direction into how Yeshua taught and lived customs and traditions...of men. For instance, the letter of the Torah does not say to go to a synagogue every Shabbat. But how should one "hear" the Word, which is a commandment? Synagogues were an answer to that question. The Torah was read every Shabbat, so Scripture tells us that Yeshua went to synagogue every Shabbat: • And He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up; and as was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath, and stood up to read. (Lk 4:16) Yeshua wouldn't do something evil, so this was a good custom even if the Torah does not say, "Thou shalt enter the synagogue every Sabbath." How to differentiate among the direct mitzvah (commandment), the custom or tradition that helps one to do the mitzvah, and an outright tare? The answer comes from knowing that the Word is the seed from which we grow fruit and that the heart's intent is a vital indicator of the fruit grown from it. My offer to help with a Biblically sound way to look at customs and traditions for believers was to write the booklet: Truth, Tradition, or Tare: Growing in the Word. This brings us back to our topic of hospitality over the last several weeks. Hospitality is how we invite the very Presence of Adonai into our homes, towns, and gatherings. In the following account of hospitality, the hostess is a woman named Martha, and she had a sister named Mary (Miriam). Custom dictated that a host or hostess like Abraham and Sarah provide a safe refuge, water for washing, and food and drink for their guests. It was customary. Traditional. Martha busied herself providing these customary things for Yeshua and his disciples, but Mary was more, well, I'm going to say it...not Custom Mary: • Now as they were traveling along, He entered a village; and a woman named Martha welcomed Him into her home. She had a sister called Mary, who was seated at the Lord's feet, listening to His word. But Martha was distracted with all her preparations; and she came up to Him and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to do all the serving alone? Then tell her to help me.” But the Lord answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things; but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” (Lk 10:38-42) Martha was missing something in her hospitality, just as we can miss it in any custom or tradition we practice: why do we do it? To strengthen our relationship to the Holy One and His Word? Or to earn righteousness or the esteem of others through our own efforts? Yeshua gently pointed out to Martha the important aspect of customary hospitality: it is to strengthen the relationship between the ministry of the Word and the recipients of the Word. To make it come alive. In this case, the Word was literally alive in Martha's home! In fact, Yeshua would have greeted the home with peace when he entered, just as he instructed his disciples to do. Instead of receiving the peace, Martha remained in a state of worry and bother. She did not receive the blessing. Mary, however, was eating and drinking it in, getting to know what the Living Word should be in her life. The custom of hospitality is to enable Kingdom ministry, to provide a temporary little Temple sanctuary for the minister. Martha was not wrong if she wanted to continue preparing food to serve the disciples, but she was wrong if it became contentious and destroyed the very relationships she should be strengthening with other believers. Yeshua was well able to perform a miracle of bread, oil, wine, fish, or any other meal she was serving. He'd certainly done it for others who offered what little they had, and so had Elijah. And I'm sure he was prepared to wait if her meal took longer. After all, he was there to grace her with his Presence, not to grade or promote her on culinary skills. He wanted her to drink him in! To Martha, however, the customary, traditional way a woman of the First Century was viewed as valuable was in her domestic skills. To Yeshua, his custom was to invite all to sit and learn at his feet. Male, female, Jew, non-Jew, slave, free...all could learn and grow in the ministry of the Word. It was the better part of hospitality. It didn't negate the need to feed and house the visiting ministers, the other part, but it was the better part of the whole equation. Perhaps, Yeshua is saying, the point of the serving is forging peace with people and Heaven. Hospitality is the designated vehicle for it. Yeshua didn't pick Martha's home so she could become righteous through serving; he picked her because she believed in him; she already was righteous. She just needed some extra training like he had to correct his other disciples on things like fighting over higher positions, water-walking, and poor demon management. A righteous guest seeks a righteous home for hospitality, and he/she has the authority to bless that sanctuary home with peace: • “Do not acquire gold, or silver, or copper for your money belts, or a bag for your journey, or even two coats, or sandals, or a staff; for the worker is worthy of his support. And whatever city or village you enter, inquire who is worthy in it, and stay at his house until you leave that city. As you enter the house, give it your greeting. If the house* is worthy, give it your blessing of peace. But if it is not worthy, take back your blessing of peace. Whoever does not receive you, nor heed your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet.” (Mt 10:9-15) *”The House” is a euphemism for The Temple Yeshua clarified hospitality: it is receiving by 1) providing refuge, food and drink, and water for washing as well as 2) receiving his Word. Yeshua had to remind Martha to receive the Word, too. The heart of the Temple was in the hidden place of the ark, the Word of the Torah emplaced between the two cheruvim where the Voice would speak. Out loud. Hospitality is how the average person enters the holy Sanctuary to experience the Voice and Presence of Adonai through His designated ministers of the Word. • “You shall keep My sabbaths and revere My sanctuary; I am the LORD.” (Le 19:30) What did First Century Jews understand about this commandment? And why did Yeshua instruct his disciples so specifically about hospitality as they ministered in his name and authority? Rashi explains it in his comments to Vayikra (Leviticus) 19:30: • “'And revere my Sanctuary.' He should not enter the grounds of the Temple neither with his staff, nor with shoes on his feet, nor with his moneybelt, nor with the dust that is on his feet, i.e., he should not enter with dirty feet. And although I enjoin you to have reverence with regard to the Beit HaMikdash [Temple], nonetheless, ‘you shall observe my Sabbaths; the construction of the Beit HaMikdash does not override the Sabbath.” Contextually, Rashi's point is that Sabbath will occur in every place for all time, and so commandments specific to the Temple services will be overridden by commands specific to Shabbat. As Yeshua understood about the magificent Temple, it would not long endure. Instead, the righteous of the earth would have to function as little sanctuaries in the nations where they lived and were sent. He would continue to build the Temple through them and to send the Presence, the Ruach HaKodesh. In practice, Yeshua sent his disciples to continue his work; in order to do that work, they would need holy homes to provide Temple hospitality. For this, the home would need to be a “worthy” one. The family would need to conduct its daily life toward the preservation of holiness of Shabbat. Such a family was fit for Kingdom ministers, and those minister-guests were obligated to treat it with the same courtesies as they would enter the Temple itself. Yeshua's requirements were identical to the customary Temple protocols for entry. A home that provided water to wash the feet was a prepared holy temple. As the repentant sinful woman washed Yeshua's feet with her tears, receiving his forgiveness, so a righteous home signaled receiving the guest with physical water as well as receiving the Word of shalom he or she brought to the house...and House. The reverence of Shabbat is linked to entering the Temple itself, placing that home in a very high spiritual status, worthy of blessing for its hospitality. The disciples would bless the homes of Custom Marys the same as they would proclaim blessings in the Temple, for the host was standing in to bless them as the priests would bless the tribes coming up to worship, and all, even those "night watcher" servants of exile from among the nations, offered blessings to YHVH.

1 Jn. 1:1-4 Preached in the Sanctuary of Bethesda Shalom, England, Sunday 24th November, 2025.
Given that we worship what we love and become what we worship, we want to think about the sanctuaries that we are constructing in our lives. Our first sanctuary is our heart. Out of the heart we move to the outward spaces of our lives that occupy most of time and energy, household and work. The goal is to create intentional practices that support the creation and maintenance of a life of sanctuary. God's Word can guide us in building healthy, sacred spaces.

11/23/25 David borrows from the new book Reading the Bible on Turtle Island by Sanctuary member Chris Hoklotubbe. David looks at how the book invites an openness to the gifts and spiritual practices of indigenous traditions because many reflect the Bible's portrayal of spiritual experiences. For example, in the Transfiguration story, Jesus experiences the presence of his ancestors (Moses and Elijah) at a crossroads moment in his ministry.
This week, we share a For the Journey exclusive conversation between Bill Haley and Jeannie Rose Barksdale, a lawyer-turned-spiritual director and founder of Tangible. They discuss what it's like to navigate significant vocational pivots, to cultivate rhythms that make sacred the present moment, and to create spaces of sanctuary in the midst of the bustle of urban life.Learn More about Rock Creek SanctuaryLearn More About Spiritual Direction through Coracleinthecoracle.org | @inthecoracleSupport the show

Breathe Pictures Photography Podcast: Documentaries and Interviews
Artist, writer and thinker Gael Hillyard joins me to talk about her creative life, from painting, writing and photography, to the deep-winter months she spent as artist-in-residence on Fair Isle, to the ten silent days she lived inside a retreat with no conversation at all. We explore how her work has been shaped by a childhood spent in a Victorian atelier, the two studios she now keeps in the Highlands, and the weather-beaten coastlines she keeps returning to as both muse and anchor. And in the mailbag this week, Spike Boydell, our man from the canoe down under, has been thinking about slowing down, and I mean really slowing down. Comedy-writer-in-chief Hegaard the Dane sends word about solitude and the small matter of spending a night or three in jail! John Kenny writes about trees and the Sycamore Gap, which has an unexpected local relevance for me this weekend, and Bill Frische has been photographing a 'monster'. I'll also share a little more about the craft of photogravure that we'll be exploring on the new Scottish retreat in June. There's a reminder of this month's assignment, the last one of the year, before we shift our focus to THE ONE in December. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week and Arthelper.ai, giving photographers smart tools to plan, promote, and manage your creative projects more easily. WHY: A Sketchbook of Life is available here.
What if the most powerful thing you could bring to Thanksgiving this year wasn't your famous [insert random comfort food], but a grateful heart your kids can actually see? In this episode, Kent and Lawson help dads get super practical about gratitude, right in the middle of a noisy, entitled world. Using the word GRATEFUL as an acrostic, they walk through eight anchors for a dad's heart: Grace, Reflection, Appreciation, Thanksgiving, Empathy, Faith, Understanding, and Love. You will hear stories about tiny frogs in a muddy trail, anonymous generosity on YouTube, benefit dinners that do not go as planned, and friends who choose gratitude in the middle of crushing loss. Together, Kent and Lawson connect these real-life moments to Scripture and to simple ideas you can try with your own family this Thanksgiving. Whether you want a quick conversation starter around the table, a game to play with your kids, or just a reset for your own attitude before the holiday rush, this episode will help you trade comparison and entitlement for a grateful, open-handed way of living. We'll also include the Scriptures we referenced below, in case you want to go back and study them for yourself. G - Grace: "For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace." — John 1:16 (ESV) R - Reflection: "I will ponder all your work, and meditate on your mighty deeds." — Psalm 77:12 (ESV) A - Appreciation: "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." — 1 Thessalonians 5:18 (ESV) T - Thanksgiving: "Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name!" — Psalm 100:4 (ESV) E - Empathy: "Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep." — Romans 12:15 (ESV) F - Faith: "Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen." — Hebrews 11:1 (ESV) U - Understanding: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding." — Proverbs 3:5 (ESV) L - Love: "We love because he first loved us." — 1 John 4:19 (ESV) We've launched video now!

The first, Wise Guys: Unlocking Hidden Wisdom from the Men Around You, was written to help men learn how to find mentors and wise counsel. The latest, Don't Bench Yourself: How to Stay in the Game Even When You Want to Quit, aims to help dads stay present in their roles as fathers and husbands even when they feel like giving up. Kent's life has been radically affected by godly mentors and his lovely wife, April. They have been married thirty years and have five sons and one daughter-in-law. He lives in Louisville, Kentucky. Lawson Brown is husband to his high school sweetheart, a father of two young adult daughters, has been a business leader since 1995, and is a former Marine. He served as a small group leader for teenage boys for many years, helped start the Christian media ministry City on a Hill Productions, then later Sanctuary – a new church in Kennesaw, GA – where he served as its leader for Men's Ministry. Lawson's journey of faith has always been centered in a grounding from his wife, Audrey, and supported throughout by many men whom he's found as brothers along the way. His family is nearing an empty nest phase and has recently relocated to the Florida Gulf Coast beaches area.
Here we go again – another preventable murder by a criminal illegal immigrant who should have been deported years ago. A Seattle bus driver is dead because sanctuary city policies protected a Venezuelan killer who had already stabbed his roommate to death in 2023. But hey, Seattle loves their "sanctuary" status more than protecting actual citizens, right?This video breaks down how Richard Sitzlack (real name: Bastites) went from killing his roommate with a "self-defense" claim to murdering bus driver Shawn Yim over a bus window complaint. ICE had a detainer ready, but Seattle, King County, and Washington State don't cooperate with federal immigration enforcement because... reasons?How many more innocent people have to die before these sanctuary jurisdictions wake up? What's it going to take for politicians to prioritize American lives over virtue signaling? And why are we surprised that a city that enables drug addicts and criminals on public transit can't keep bus drivers safe?
If you've spent years calling it anxiety, overthinking, or “God testing you,” this episode will completely change how you see your body, the father wound, and your relationship with God.In this Sovereign Sisterhood Movement podcast episode, I share a truth most women were never told: your nervous system is the electrical system of your soul. When it's overwhelmed by generational trauma, especially from the father line, it doesn't just impact your mood. It blocks intuition, distorts your sense of safety, and can make God feel far away even when He isn't.This isn't because you're broken.It's because your nervous system was trained by survival, not by love.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the coming release of Jeffrey Epstein's files, explosive new evidence of his ties to intelligence services, and the political crossfire now engulfing both parties. He then turns to a sweeping set of immigration updates, covering violent attacks on federal officers, deportation operations in Charlotte and New York City, a federal judge blocking National Guard deployments, and a little known federal program that lets foreign graduates stay in the United States at lower wages than American college students. The show closes with encouraging updates on soybeans, beef supply, and groundbreaking Alzheimer's research. Epstein Files Set for Release: The House passed a bill instructing the Department of Justice to release its Epstein files, with President Trump expected to sign it shortly. Speaker Mike Johnson warned that the measure risks exposing victims, revealing child abuse images, and forcing declassification of intelligence records that may contain sensitive sources and methods. His comments suggest that U.S. intelligence agencies hold Epstein-related material, fueling long-standing questions about whether Epstein worked with the CIA, Mossad, or European services. Political Fallout for Both Parties: Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene reignited her feud with Trump after claiming he blocked earlier Epstein legislation, while Democrats are facing scrutiny over Virgin Islands Delegate Stacey Plaskett, who coordinated with Epstein during a 2019 House hearing. Newly released emails also show Epstein spent years trying to damage Trump after their personal split, which Bryan argues suggests Trump had no criminal exposure. Violence Against ICE and Border Patrol Surges: Vehicle rammings and attacks on federal immigration officers are up more than one thousand percent compared to last year. Bryan links the trend to incendiary rhetoric from national Democrats, including Senator Chris Murphy's statement that Americans must do "whatever is necessary" to stop Trump. Charlotte and New York Become Deportation Flashpoints: Operation Charlotte's Web caused twenty one thousand students to stay home this week, a sign of how many families are in the country unlawfully. Bryan explains how deportations could free up thousands of homes for working class Americans. In New York, ICE is preparing major operations after city leaders blocked federal agents from accessing Rikers Island, choosing to release violent offenders instead of handing them over for deportation. Judge Blocks National Guard in Memphis: A Tennessee judge ruled that neither President Trump nor the governor can deploy the National Guard to support anti crime operations in Memphis. Her decision contradicts data showing that federal surges dropped homicides, robberies, and shootings throughout the city. Bryan calls the ruling pure political activism that harms the very communities it claims to protect. Texas Redistricting and California Citizenship Rush: A federal court struck down Texas's new GOP drawn congressional map. In California, migrants rushed to obtain citizenship before a harder civics test took effect, a change Trump implemented to restore basic knowledge of American history and law. Foreign Nationals Driving Trucks and Spreading Risk: DHS arrested an Uzbek national living in Pennsylvania who obtained a commercial driver's license despite ties to jihadist recruitment. Bryan warns that thousands of foreign drivers, many without proper vetting, may be transporting hazardous materials across the country. OPT Program Exposes American Graduates: Senator Eric Schmitt highlighted a federal program called Optional Practical Training that allows foreign graduates to work for three years without payroll taxes, making them cheaper to hire than American college students. Bryan says the program, along with H-1B visas, is shutting young Americans out of the workforce. Good News on Food and Science: China appears to have resumed large soybean purchases from U.S. farmers, and dairy ranchers are increasing beef production with new cross bred calves. Researchers also discovered a muscle released molecule that protects mice from Alzheimer's even when genetic risk is present, pointing to potential therapies and reaffirming the power of exercise. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Epstein files DOJ release, Speaker Mike Johnson intelligence concerns, Stacey Plaskett Epstein texts, ICE vehicle attacks Charlotte's Web, New York Rikers Island ICE block, Memphis National Guard ruling, Texas redistricting court decision, California citizenship test rush, Uzbek CDL jihad arrest, Optional Practical Training OPT reform, China soybean purchases, beef on dairy calves supply, Cathepsin B Alzheimer's study
Scott and Bruce were the hottest couple in church. Scott, a hula dancer, seemed destined for Bruce, the hunky “lumbersexual,” and the church delighted when they got together. Their brief love affair sparkled before Bruce got sick and died. Their story is one of multiple “dress rehearsals”– when friends, family and lovers went through AIDS with their loved ones wondering who would be next and sometimes knowing it might be you. You can see Scott perform in a 1992 InterPlay piece called “God, Sex and Power” here. He's the one with the bandaids on his knees. Singing Positive is a two-part documentary film about the San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus (SFGMC) and its experience with AIDS that spans 15 years. The first film, which featured Scott, was produced in 1992 and is hard to find online. The second film, produced in 2009, saw the filmmakers return to SFGMC to explore the impact of AIDS on the chorus over time. The 2009 film, with clips of Scott from the first film, is here. And you can watch some amazing SFGMC performances on their YouTube channel here. Scott's San Francisco hula school was Nā Lei Hulu I Ka Wēkiu. They celebrated their 40th anniversary in 2025. Scott's teacher and friend, Kumu Patrick Makuakāne is in the 2023 cohort of MacArthur Fellows. His recent work includes Māhū, a work by and with trans hula performers.
