This summer, scientists have their eyes and telescopes trained on the small constellation system T Coronae Borealis. They think it will explode as part of a periodic nova — a once-in-a-lifetime event according to NASA scientists. And so, with the help of astrophysicist Sarafina El-Badry Nance, we continue our journey farther and deeper into spacetime with a look at the stars: How they're born and how they die. Sarafina has always been drawn to one particular star: Betelgeuse, a red supergiant in the shoulder of the constellation Orion that is nearing the end of its life. What stages of life did Betelgeuse — or any star — go through before it reached this moment? This episode is part of our series Space Camp — all abut the weird, wonderful phenomena in our universe.

Get ready for an engaging conversation as I sit down with my dear friend, Mark Vicente. Many of you might recognise him as the whistle-blower for the cult NXIVM, but there's so much more to him than that. Mark is not just a public figure; he's an author, a speaker, and the cinematographer behind the iconic film Sarafina!Together, we explore the intense demands placed upon us by social media, our battles with how the public sees us, and being honest in our self-expression. Mark shares with us his experience of having a cult-like following, and we examine how historical patterns of coercion and censorship are repeating in our modern society.If you're ready to explore the nuances of authenticity, the role of vulnerability in connection, and the importance of critical thinking in personal growth, tune in to this episode.Connect with Mark:Mark Vicente is an author, speaker, and filmmaker who played a key role in the creation of the sleeper hit "What The Bleep Do We Know?!” Born in Johannesburg - South Africa in 1965, he discovered his passion for cinematography early and made his mark as a Director of Photography in Hollywood with films like “SARAFINA” and “FATHERHOOD.”Mark transitioned to directing with a focus on challenging and thought-provoking themes. His work includes “Encender el Corazon,” a film addressing Mexico's kidnapping crisis. Despite it touching many people deeply, he withdrew the film to expose the criminal activities of the NXIVM cult, detailed in the HBO series “THE VOW.” Today he continues to explore human stories through film, with the goal of shining a light on both the beauty and complexity of the human condition.You can follow Mark Vicente on:Instagram: @markvicenteTwitter: https://twitter.com/markvicenteFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/markvicente/Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/MarkVicenteWebsite: https://www.markvicente.com"WTF is on my Mind?!"

This week Di and Nicola speak to the incredibly inspiring Aminata Conteh-Biger. Aminata was born and raised in Sierra Leone, where she lived a beautiful life with her family until the age of 18, when her whole world was turned upside down. She was kidnapped by rebel forces and abused by them for months during the civil war in her country, before being released and becoming one of the first Sierra Leonian refugees in Australia in the year 2000. Since then, it's phenomenal what Aminata has been able to accomplish so far. She is the founder and CEO of the Aminata Maternal Foundation, an author, an inspirational speaker, an activist, a Special Representative for Australia UNHCR and the recipient of several humanitarian awards. Aminata is also a proud wife and mother of 2 beautiful children. In this episode we hear Aminata's powerful story of growing up in Sierra Leone in a loving family, and the beautiful values that were instilled in her and her siblings by their remarkable father. Aminata shares with us the horrifying moment when she was kidnapped by rebel soldiers at the age of 18, the abuse that followed, and then the miracle which led to her release. Aminata talks about what it was like coming to Australia, a place she had never heard of, as one of the first refugees from Sierra Leone and the culture shock that followed. We also hear the beautiful story of when she met her husband and the love letter he wrote that took her years to find. After complications with the birth of Aminata's first daughter Sarafina, Aminata began learning more about maternal health and was motivated to set up the Aminata Maternal Foundation to help provide maternal healthcare and education for women in Sierra Leone. Aminata opens up about what it's been like to witness the life-changing impact that her foundation is having on these girls and young women. At the end of the episode, we also hear more about Aminata's passion for fashion and the amazing work she does with The Social Outfit, a social enterprise that supports refugees to kick-start their Australian careers by making and selling incredible clothes. We are so grateful to Aminata for the work that she's doing and for sharing her story with us. We hope that you enjoy this powerful conversation as much as we did.

I'm so pleased this week to be able to speak with astrophysicist Sarafina El-Badry Nance. I went to Villanova University as an Astronomy and Astrophysics major. I spent my first semester in the major before deciding that the path was not what I saw as my future.Despite choosing another avenue in life, I still have a fascination with the world above our heads, and I have so much appreciation for those who dedicate their lives to finding out the mysteries of the universe. Sarafina El-Badry Nance is an astrophysicist and she's just published a book that is half science book and half memoir. It's titled 'Starstruck: A Memoir of Astrophysics and Finding Light in the Dark.' The book is super interesting and I've found myself getting lost in how she bounces back and forth between stories about her life and information about the universe. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Sarafina. We discuss her inspiration to follow science, the struggles she had along the way, my crazy theories about the universe and more.

Pastor Bill: [0:00] Hello and welcome to season 4 episode 3 of The Berean Manifesto; Faith, Hope, and Love for the Modern Christian I'm Pastor Bill and I'm joined as always by Pastor Newms. Pastor Newms: [0:15] Hola. Pastor Bill: [0:17] How are you senior Pastor Newms? Took a nap and it made you happy. Pastor Newms: [0:34] I did, I took a nap had some weird dreams though. Pastor Bill: [0:38] Does a nap that made you happy, is it thereby defined as a nappy? You took a nappy. Pastor Newms: [0:46] No, a nappy is something you put on a baby's butt. Pastor Bill: [0:51] Ah it's also a certain classification of dirty greasy hair. Pastor Newms: [0:58] That's spelled differently. Pastor Bill: [1:00] How is it? How is that spelt? Pastor Newms: [1:02] I don't know, but I know it's spelled differently. Pastor Bill: [1:04] Okay okay well that's neither here nor there I don't know I don't know. Pastor Newms: [1:10] I don't know, I don't even have any hair. Pastor Bill: [1:15] Well you have, you got some you got the beard. Pastor Newms: [1:18] That's not the same kind of hair. Pastor Bill: [1:18] And you've got the chest hair. Pastor Newms: [1:22] I have no chest hair you can't prove it. Pastor Bill: [1:25] And you've got the back here. Pastor Newms: [1:27] You can't prove that either. Pastor Bill: [1:29] But not as much as there was this guy that I was in the internship with at Teen Mania. You know in that first when you first get there, you're you sleep out in the Quonset Huts like the long you know just long dome-tinted room with bunk beds. You're all using these communal showers one shower for the men one shower for the women this dude is so hairy on his chest and back that he looked like he was wearing a sweater vest, he even had it cut into a v in the front and then he had a cross shaved into the back. Pastor Newms: [2:12] That's a look - okay. Pastor Bill: [2:17] But that was crazy like he could be shirtless and from a distance, you'd swear he had a sweater vest on because it did the whole around here by the arms and then he had it a v-neck cut into the front of it, to make it look like a V, what's up Sarafina you gonna join us tonight, a v cut in the front there it was crazy good guy great guy really yeah it was weird, yeah, so how was your week Pastor Newms? Pastor Newms: [2:54] My week was. Pastor Bill: [2:57] My way. Pastor Newms: [2:59] It was. Pastor Bill: [3:01] My week was a very week. Pastor Newms: [3:05] It was pretty good I um… Was you know, busy at work. It's the end of the year and my job tends to get a little crazy towards the end of the year so. Pastor Bill: [3:18] Yeah I was editing the transcript this week and you were saying you guys actually got busier in December which is the antithesis of how it goes. Pastor Newms: [3:28] Antithesis to. Pastor Bill: [3:30] In medical Tech. Pastor Newms: [3:32] Every tech company I've ever worked at except for this one, but that's okay. You know, everyone has a different business model. We try to get a lot of stuff done at the end of the year and at the first of the year too. Bring more clients on right at the beginning and end and that is the business model they have chosen and that is all I will say about that, but yes. Pastor Bill: [4:00] What trips me up in the nonprofit sector was always ending the year in August. Pastor Newms: [4:12] The fiscal year. Pastor Bill: [4:13] Yeah the fiscal year, is like it always just messes with my mind, ending the fiscal year in August and it not corresponding with the daily calendar and oh man. Wal Mart, right and then didn't they did the week's Week 1 week 2 week and you had to know, as a merchandising supervisor, you had to know what week you were in. Pastor Newms: [4:45] You did and it did not correspond to the calendar. Pastor Bill: [4:48] And it did not correspond to the calendar and you if you look at the calendar you went okay what week of the year is it that did not correspond with what merchandise week, it is in the numbers, you had to know and then you had to know what end caps were set for that week and the next week and what you could put together and then sometimes they would just leave you big holes in your department in electronics and they were like, “Just fill it with something…” and you're like, I have a hard enough time getting my general manager to approve orders on the things that are actually supposed to be there, that Walmart says they're supposed to be there I'm not going to get him to order me extra stuff for an empty spot, on my floor, that's not gonna so. Pastor Newms: [5:37] Well let's be honest you were at probably the worst Walmart that I've ever seen. Pastor Bill: [5:44] That's what I hear but it's the only WalMart I've ever worked at. So I don't really have anything to compare it to so. Pastor Newms: [5:51] Oh yeah Biggs stated the Nissan year starts in April because they follow the Japanese year not the calendar year also. Pastor Bill: [6:04] We'll see at least that makes sense. Like that's the cultural calendar from where the company exists there's some logic to that. Pastor Newms: [6:14] It does make more sense than some others will the fiscal year. Pastor Bill: [6:18] And just making up your own calendar. Pastor Newms: [6:21] The fiscal year for retail makes sense too because you want to capture what money you lose to returns in January from Christmas. So that way you actually know what your fiscal year is or if you don't do that, what happens is the first month of your year is - and you, terrible for the year starting off and it hurts because you're years starting - and you spend the rest of the year trying to catch up as opposed to technically that revenue was captured in December and then lost in January. So it's it, that's the reason they do it and it makes sense from a. The way they fiscally are doing it so that way because it is technically lost from the Christmas sales so because of that it balances out so it works pretty well. My week's been pretty good, we also did today the church we visited. This is the third time we visited them, we actually took the girls and they have a full one of their ministries is a theater company. Not like, oh we have drama we do or not you know, hey, we have no but they actually have like a theater where they sell tickets throughout the year and it's a full production and tryouts and it's a full thing, box you know they have the you can order the whole years' worth of stuff and go to all of them and they were doing Christmas Carol for Christmas which is logical. So they put on, for morning service they put on their Christmas Carol and then, so we got to see that for free. what other people had to pay for it that always makes me feel special love free things and then they had a church-wide Christmas party thing afterwards, where there was like everyone brought desserts and so there was a huge dessert bar and, just people just lots of people just people. Pastor Bill: [8:36] People being people in. Pastor Newms: [8:37] And so we sat with the co-worker that Tina has that is her friend. During that so that was good and just overall you know trying to, figure everything out there it's pretty cool place I think but still, you know checking it out. But yeah, so that was kind of cool and then last night we did our first night of our family celebration of Yule which was fun. You should be getting a picture of that from your present. So that's good we'll be doing that for the next eleven nights, until the solstice for Sez in his celebration as well. So that's good. The fire pit was a success, the one I ordered worked very well. We enjoyed it and everyone, most of the family, enjoys the Yule cake that I made. It's a cranberry-based cake so if you don't like cranberries, it's hard to enjoy a cranberry cake if you don't like cranberries like myself but. Pastor Bill: [10:09] I like cranberry, sauce. Pastor Newms: [10:11] No, so this is actually a, it's an old recipe that it's also called Christmas cake sometimes of course because you know dear people love to borrow things from other. Pastor Bill: [10:23] Appropriate. Pastor Newms: [10:24] Yeah we'll use that word. Pastor Bill: [10:27] That's what it is. Its appropriation. Pastor Newms: [10:28] It is it's also theft but that's okay that's what appropriation is, theft of culture. Pastor Bill: [10:34] Appropriation is theft. Pastor Newms: [10:36] Yeah. Pastor Bill: [10:37] It's different there's appreciation which is, taking something and going hey this is a Yule cake, and we're going to enjoy it at Christmas, that's appreciation, then there's appropriation where you go, hey there's your cakes really good but I'm gonna change the name and pretend like it doesn't have some historical meaning attached to it. Pastor Newms: [11:21] Three eggs and then, cranberries and so it's super simple it's nice and crumbly and traditionally you kind of leave it out. You don't like put it in the fridge or put it in the and by the end of Yule it gets a little harder and so it's almost like a bar by the end. The one I made is not going to last to the end of Yule I've already planned on buying more ingredients and making another because I wanted the Cranberries to be semi-fresh so I don't want to or buy them. Pastor Bill: [11:57] Isn't part of the point for it to last and become a hardy you know through that you can continue to eat in the cold. Pastor Newms: [12:06] That is the point of it, but Groggy is here this weekend which means. Pastor Bill: [12:13] It's not going to last. Pastor Newms: [12:13] 7 people in the house. Last night, and even cutting them in like 1 by 1 squares a 13 by 9 only has so many squares in it so, I'm pretty sure it ain't going. Pastor Bill: [12:32] I would imagine the 13 by 9 only has 13 squares across and 9 squares. Pastor Newms: [12:38] That's if I actually measured and did inch squares which you know me, I didn't measure, and they are bigger than a one-by-one. Pastor Bill: [12:47] Those were two-inch squares easily. Pastor Newms: [12:51] If - because it was just knife carving knife you know. But it was good, fire and stuff which is fun I like fire I've limited the amount of wood we bought. We only bought you know a little bit of wood for each night and we're not doing the, belief that the fire has to burn the whole time or it's bad luck because well one, it doesn't you know the sun isn't not going to come back if the fire goes out says, it was like I was like do we need to keep this fire going and we tend it throughout the day and he's like no like okay cool I'll do it if we need to like if that's part of your not belief system but part of the traditions that you do. Pastor Bill: [13:48] He was like I aint sitting out here and tending that fire. Pastor Newms: [13:52] Relax and keep the fire going. We'll just light logs each night and like all right cool so that's kind of what we're doing and that's good it's been a good week how was your week? Pastor Bill: [14:08] It was life, just you know walking the dog every day multiple times it probably like at least every hour. Pastor Newms: [14:16] How's that doing for your health? Pastor Bill: [14:20] I don't know I haven't noticed the difference yet. Pastor Newms: [14:22] I mean like are your knees hurting a lot more are you are you doing okay doing that often? Pastor Bill: [14:28] I mean as long as I sit down for a little bit after doing it each time, I'm fine. I mean I've just got to sit down and let my back recoup. Pastor Newms: [14:36] I wasn't thinking that the standpoint that some people would take of oh you're walking. You don't ever walk normally, you've obviously lost 190 pounds but doing it now I wasn't going that route I meant just. Pastor Bill: [14:46] Actually, and I haven't lost a pound. It doesn't do anything for my weight you know. Pastor Newms: [14:57] Because life's not magical. Pastor Bill: [15:00] That's right life's not magical, and getting a dog at the end of October and walking it every hour except for while you were asleep for a month does not equal weight loss. Pastor Newms: [15:14] Well to be fair if anything it would it could mark weight gain because you're using muscles you normally don't. Pastor Bill: [15:24] Building up those muscles. Pastor Newms: [15:25] Right and that's the worst part about weight is everyone's like most people measure by pounds and they're like, I'm so fat alright I've gotten fatter so I started working out you're like no no you haven't I can see that you look different, I can't tell real well because cameras you know but and I don't see all of you but there's that aspect of, if you do that then obviously you've lost weight if I do like this I look skinny but you know it just doesn't work that way none of us have that good of a tour so we're just pushing fat up so the, but I know there are people that get upset and they're like how I'm gained weight when I started working out you're like yeah but have you measured, and that's the other thing is looking at it from that standpoint. How do your clothes fit? How do your you know? Those types of things are important also not just, poundage because poundage is not how you measure that especially. Pastor Bill: [16:31] That's another guy over there this week. Pastor Newms: [16:50] But I just meant your pain levels, not your. Pastor Bill: [16:51] No my panels are manageable, it's all right my bad there's been a few times where I've been limping the dog out but you know those aren't all the time. Anyway yeah, I mean other than you know you see I got this Christmas tie up. Pastor Newms: [17:19] I do you see your Christmas tie. Pastor Bill: [17:22] I've got this Christmas tree over here that I've added to my office Shelf ah. Pastor Newms: [17:27] I am, I don't think I have anything Christmas. Pastor Bill: [17:41] Put this in your stuff. Pastor Newms: [17:43] We do have two Christmas trees this year. One that has no ornaments and isn't plugged in because I forgot that we, found a Christmas tree towards the end of last year middle of last year when we ordered it. I forgot I just remembered the fact that we didn't have one, and so we were doing something we were out there for the wedding, and Walmart the one over on Cheek Sparger had just put out their Christmas trees. So I found a six-foot black one and bought it and then brought it home and Tina's like, you know we already have one and I was like yeah of course I do, which I had forgotten a little bit oh okay I now do you want to be on camera or no just hand, okay I now have a black Christmas tree. Pastor Bill: [18:46] That's not 6 foot that's um. Pastor Newms: [18:48] That's this one's not 6ft does that work could not be seen that can't be seen and used to be over here we'll put it right here for Here We Go. Pastor Bill: [19:01] Then I just put it right in front of the camera like. Pastor Newms: [19:03] Right in front of the camera okay. Pastor Bill: [19:06] Just sitting right in front there you go. Pastor Newms: [19:07] So I have a Christmas tree now it's a wonderful Christmas tree and it's. Pastor Bill: [19:14] Move it over Happy Halloween, nice. Pastor Newms: [19:14] It's definitely a Christmas tree and nothing else other than a Christmas tree all right. Pastor Bill: [19:22] Don't just move it over to the right, come on man move it to the right up hiding behind the tree okay is that right okay move it to the left then, hold it nope too far little bit more in a little bit more into the camera a little bit more little bit right there oh Pastor Newms. Pastor Newms: [19:47] You want me to okay there's a second one I could technically bring it and put it right in front of the Saints but. Pastor Bill: [19:54] It doesn't even look real it looks like you've added an image a PNG image into the shot, not a real tree. Pastor Newms: [20:07] It looks purply because the red light right there, there's a red light right there, and there's a red light right there. That's the reflection of the red light that's over there and there's red lights right here but yeah so. Pastor Bill: [20:28] All right so Biggs on Twitch asks what kind of dog did you get. My dog is a pit lab, it seems American Pit Bull and Chocolate Lab. I love her, she's great. She's a little stinker though sometimes she plays a little too hard with the kids, but she's just a baby. Pastor Newms: [20:55] Labs have that issue, I've never owned a pit, but well Kaiju has just a little bit but it's not much she's mainly lab but, never had a full mix and Kaiju doesn't understand that she's 65 pounds, she thinks that she is 10 pounds and she gets jealous Shyla will lay right here on your shoulder when you're sitting in a chair, and she puts her back she puts her front up here and then you're supposed to hold her butt and then and then she just cuddles just like a cat, yeah just like a 10-pound 12-pound cat you know no big deal she claws the whole way up but that's okay you know she's special and if you try to remove her, by shoulder meat but. Pastor Bill: [21:49] Really at the claws then. Pastor Newms: [21:50] Yeah you really get too close if that's the case but then she'll start whining and then try to climb up in the chair with you, and I'm not talking like you know big fluffy lazy boys I'm talking just like chair, you know we've got these swirly, these swivel chairs that are like you know the only the backs only go like, this tall on your back you know. She'll try to pick her up and you're holding her and then she gets right here and she's like I could do it and the tails just, you know smacking you over and over again because she's happy and you're just like oh my gosh you got to get down. But yeah she so I can do it too just dad look, and it doesn't it doesn't work here like no no baby you can't it hurts you got to get down because she has no idea. Pastor Bill: [22:44] But I is baby. Pastor Newms: [22:46] Yeah so yeah dogs are fun. Pastor Bill: [22:56] All right so now it's time for. Getting To Know The Pastors. Pastor Newms: [23:02] See this is the problem, I think we do enough of this in the opening that we don't have to do these cards, and yet you say we have to do these cards. Let's just see… if you were to create just create not go to but create. Pastor Bill: [23:17] Okay I'm creating something. Pastor Newms: [23:19] The ultimate vacation destination. Where would it be located and what would it be like? Now here's my question if I can create the ultimate vacation spot right I would assume that I can also create the means to get there. Pastor Bill: [23:55] I mean you own the place you could technically live there. Pastor Newms: [23:59] No, I mean like if I'm granted a wish of the ultimate vacation spot by definition, if you were the Jinn doing this you'd have to then create the ability to get people their back or wouldn't be the ultimate vacation spot because no one could go there, okay cool alright go ahead. Pastor Bill: [24:23] It sounds like you've put more thought into this than I have what you what do you what do you brewing over there. Pastor Newms: [24:34] Under the Sea. The domed like Atlantis style amusement park under the sea. Pastor Bill: [24:42] There's that one hotel that only has one room. Pastor Newms: [24:47] And they. Pastor Bill: [24:48] And it is a submerged room. Pastor Newms: [24:54] That's what I'm thinking Atlantis Style, like domed sea creatures all around you hopefully, the meg is not real, and you know we're good to go. Pastor Bill: [25:10] The meg is not real. Pastor Newms: [25:12] Don't start cuz I got someone in this house that believes the meg is 100% real and so no man don't start this conversation we will lose it. Pastor Bill: [25:23] Dude I can't swim in swimming pools if they're too deep because of my fear of deep-water animals so, I understand the fear. Pastor Newms: [25:40] I won't swim in the ocean, and I won't swim in lakes. Catfish get too big and there are other things other than catfish that can just crawl up from other places and there goes your foot you had a foot you got a foot. Pastor Bill: [25:56] Zaydiee, were doing Get To Know The Pastor's. The card was, if you could create a destination is what are you talking about. Pastor Newms: [26:02] Oh Zaydiee knows what we're talking about. Zaydiee knows what we're talking about. Pastor Bill: [26:11] Or she asking what are you talking about who believes the meg is she's just so guy you've been naughty better now you gotta expose somebody. Pastor Newms: [26:17] Nah I'm good. Pastor Bill: [26:20] Who in your house believes the meg is real? Pastor Newms: [26:22] The megalodon is real. Its knowledge. Pastor Bill: [26:26] It's you isn't it? You're the one that believes the meg is real, isn't it? Pastor Newms: [26:30] We have proof that the Meg was real. Pastor Bill: [26:34] Once. We don't have proof that there are any more. Pastor Newms: [26:38] We don't have proof there's not. Pastor Bill: [26:40] It's true there are depths of the ocean we've never been to. Pastor Newms: [26:45] That's why I believe Nessie is real too. Some of Tina's favorite movies are The Meg and, she loves them and I'm like no that's real, there's those fall right into my I don't do ghost movies and I don't like zombies, see she believes they still exist as well. Pastor Bill: [27:14] So we watched The Meg, and you know there's some jump scares in that movie and if I remember if I'm remembering correctly Roxanne you know I was just unaffected by it Roxanne was like isn't this scary to you? I was like no, because I would never be caught dead in that underwater enclosure so it's not realistic I would never be in that situation so that is not scary to me because I wouldn't go in. I would be firm on the land. Pastor Newms: [27:48] What if your wife and kids had gone and now they're trapped would you go to save them. Pastor Bill: [27:57] What good would it do to have me die too? What purpose would that serve? Pastor Newms: [28:05] Hmm, mmm, man Rox hun, Bat-Brains you gotta come fix your man. Pastor Bill: [28:21] I said so much every other day the kids asked me some question if blah blah blah blah blah would you come would you save me so if I got kidnapped, would you pull a Liam Neeson and come and save me and I was like I don't have those skills. And Roxanne showed me this dirty-look and I was like, what? I don't. I couldn't save them. Well would you at least pay the ransom dad? With what would I pay the ransom with. Pastor Newms: [28:59] Oh, Shea family, y'all are dead if anything happens to y'all. Just so you know, Pastor Bill cannot help you. Pastor Bill: [29:08] I cannot help you, I do not have the skills of Liam Neeson. I do not have the money of Bruce Wayne. I am unhelpful in a kidnap situation in any way. Well, you aren't either I mean come on honestly. Pastor Newms: [29:28] No but I thought I would. Pastor Bill: [29:30] If your kid was kidnapped there's nothing you could do about it but call the police and sit on your hands and wait for something to happen. Pastor Newms: [29:37] I honestly don't think I could. No, I would have to at least try. Pastor Bill: [29:48] You'd want to try. Pastor Newms: [29:49] I'd have to call in some favors. I have to find some numbers from old books but, doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo-doo-doo. Pastor Bill: [30:05] I have a very specific set of historically documented skills. And they don't handle kidnapping. You call me for other things. You don't call me for kidnapping, you call me for other things. Pastor Newms: [30:22] That is true. Pastor Bill: [30:23] Kidnapping is not on that list. Pastor Newms: [30:24] Kidnappings is not on your list. I'd have to make some phone calls, but I would try hmm it's been 20 years. Pastor Bill: [30:33] Alright so my place. Pastor Newms: [30:35] Aha. Pastor Bill: [30:37] So I really when that question comes up my brain automatically remembered the day in Panama that we spent on the beach. it was the Gulf of Mexico really, but it was on the beach in Panama. White Sands, lots of shade where you didn't have to be in the sun if you didn't want to, the water was crystal clear all the way down, and so you know, and it wasn't that deep you could go swimming you know. You could see what was going on and so my brain automatically goes, well I should create something like that. Nice little water area where you're technically outside but you don't have to be in the sun if you don't want to. Nice big canopy where you know if you want to be in the sun go over there, if you don't want to be in the sun you come over here, and you can swim if you want and there's snorkeling if that's your thing and just hanging out. That'd be my place. Pastor Newms: [31:48] I see. Pastor Bill: [31:50] And at one point okay so the water was like super warm crystal clear, super warm, and then it started raining, and the rain was like super cold but it wasn't too heavy and the water that you were in was super warm and so it's like this awesome mix of just, being submerged in warm water while this cold rain fell on your head and it's beautiful scenery, and yeah it was great. Pastor Newms: [32:19] I'm going to take your word for it. Pastor Bill: [32:24] By far one of the best, what did we call those days when you're on a missions trip and you went off? Excursion, best excursion day of all of my missions trips, it beats bamboo rafting down the river and then swimming at the base of a waterfall in Thailand hands down. Although that might have had something to do with the leeches, that we then had to pull off of ourselves when we were done swimming. Anyway, so yeah that's my thing, and riding elephants was fun, except don't sit on the neck unless you've won more than just blue jeans because those little hairs on elephant necks are tough, and they will poke right through your blue jeans. That is a prickly ride down a mountain, stay where you're at. Pastor Newms: [33:37] Yeah yeah. Pastor Bill: [33:42] All right all right. Pastor Newms: [33:43] Here I do say there is somewhere I want to go I want to take the girls because I haven't yet, there's a lost sea here in this area and it's you basically go down. Well it's called the lost sea because when they found it they were like oh this was lost to time you know blah blah blah, but you go down into it, and it's an underground system of caves that they've you know been taking people through for who knows how many years. So because of that you know, it's built up nice and its still very much, do do do do do do. Glass bottom boat, and you go on this sea, like you know it's an underground lake. It's gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous and like during the prohibition time there was a bar down there. Today its carved, like they've carved stairs into the rock and you can't actually use the stairs because they're too dangerous or not because it's too dangerous but the funny thing is when your lower. This is a funny story when you're lower you don't feel the effects of alcohol as much because of the way the, something about the air and something about them and so then as you go up the stairs you feel the effects this is what they tell you at least I don't know if this is true might be you feel the effects of the alcohol more as you get into. You know miss you get back up and so some people would open the door and then like, the wind would come in and they'd fall back down the stairs and so it was actually a hazard, to drink down there. But you know, it was the prohibition, so people did it anyway. It's called The Lost Sea. Pastor Bill: [35:48] did they carry the pieces down and build the boat on the Lost Sea? Or did they somehow transport the boat whole into the hole? It feels as perplexing as seeing those pirate ships in a bottle like. Okay. Pastor Newms: [36:24] It's a pontoon boat Biggs says, I don't know if that answers the question. Pastor Bill: [36:29] They might have just carried it down there then. Pastor Newms: [36:33] I mean it's not a huge for anyone who wants the information there you go. Pastor Bill: [36:45] TheLostSea.com. Pastor Newms: [36:47] But it's. Pastor Bill: [36:48] Ready to take an unforgettable adventure? Take a boat ride underground. You've never seen, heard, or done anything like this before. Pastor Newms: [36:56] How do you see what I did you click the. Pastor Bill: [36:56] Listed in the Guinness Book of Records your lost the adventure begins with a guided tour of the caverns this includes a three-quarter mile round trip walk on a wide sloping pathways, while touring that's all I got. You were like, “How are you, how are you reading what I.” what did you think about that. Pastor Newms: [37:19] Because I was like, wait did you click the link to stop clicking links man you're not I'm the one who does random stuff while we're doing this you're the one who tries to stay focused. What's wrong? Pastor Bill: [37:34] I accidentally turned on the movie I was watching earlier. And so suddenly the movie Bohemian Rhapsody at 50 minutes in started playing over my head buds and I was like, what is that where's that music what's going on. It was over on this screen behind my notes I didn't see it I just because I tapped my ear. Pastor Newms: [38:01] Oh yeah, the boats aren't that big, you basic they're just like seat CC and then like foot room and it's glass and so they probably it's nice I like it. Pastor Bill: [38:17] So season 4 episode 1. Picked up Genesis chapter 1 and verses 1 and 2. And then and that was called in the beginning and then episode 2 which we called also in the beginning, we did John chapter 1 verses 1 through 4. You can get rid of the tree if you'd like, you don't have to leave the Christmas tree there it's fine. All right, now tonight in episode 3 the title is turn up the house lights. And we are looking at Genesis chapter 1 versus 3 and four so let's read. Pastor Newms: [39:17] So can I take a guess what we're talking about. Pastor Bill: [39:21] We're talking about Genesis chapter 1 verses 3 and 4. Pastor Newms: [39:24] Does it have to do with light - based on the title? Pastor Bill: [39:28] Based off the title of tonight's episode you would probably be a good. Pastor Newms: [39:34] Yay I guessed it. Pastor Bill: [39:39] All right you want to put in the chat Genesis chapter 1 verses 3 and 4 there. Actually, we're not going to get all the way through verse four. We're going to do the first half of verse 4. Then God said let there be light and there was light God saw the light was good and that's only half of verse 4 because that's as far as we're going to get, not actually going to get into the and God separated the light from the darkness okay. Because we're not going to get that far we've only got 14 minutes. Pastor Newms: [40:23] Well I mean I'm sorry the conversation was lively. Pastor Bill: [40:29] The conversation was lively. Pastor Newms: [40:32] I'm bad at following times you know this. Pastor Bill: [40:34] (Singing to the tune of “Let it Snow”) The weather outside is frightening but the conversation is lively. Pastor Newms: [40:43] Please just go, no I mean in that song There's a great thing because there's some mixed historical, things about what that song could mean and someone did a spoof where the girls doing the same exact parts, but the guys like no you need to go well. Pastor Bill: [41:07] That's a different song but yeah. Pastor Newms: [41:08] Is it. Pastor Bill: [41:10] Hey you're talking to your thinking about “Baby It's Cold Outside”. Pastor Newms: [41:12] Oh I was. Pastor Bill: [41:13] Totally different song, yeah the song you're talking about was featured on. Pastor Newms: [41:18] My brain I'm sorry. Pastor Bill: [41:21] That Christmas movie on Netflix. I can't remember the name of it but it's got that, the comedian the Asian comedian has the glasses what his name is. He's done a few Netflix special comedy specials can't remember his name anyway that's not that's neither here nor there. Pastor Newms: [41:46] Is Grayson praying for us to stop and be focused or. Pastor Bill: [41:49] Grayson is praying for our mental sanity he's like oh dear Lord help them, Lord. Pastor Newms: [41:57] What is it what is he praying for exactly? Pastor Bill: [42:00] So Genesis 1 chapter 3 in our translations it says then God said let there be light and there was light okay now when we go to, the Strong's to find out what words are actually they're right we find out that there's one, two, three, four, five, six words. There's only six words here okay, and the words using the same translation the words are “God said be light; be light” are the words. There is no “then” there is no “let there” and there is no “and.” It's just God said be light be light. So, there's a lot of context that has to be thrown in to make a sentence like and God said let there be light and there was light. The problem with contexts when you're talking about something like Genesis chapter one is you have no context. The only way to add words to what's being said, is to make them up is to go well in the future, because we see what happens in the future, we think that what they're saying here is this, and we backwards paste our expectation onto earlier scriptures. And say well we're going to translate this way because of what we read later and what we find out later, but when we break it down and we look at just the words that are there to try to get this deeper understanding and this deeper look at what's going on. Once again, we don't necessarily find the translation to be wrong, but we do find the translation to be shallow. And we don't find it to be bad, but we do find it to be more leaning in a poetic form. So it's crafting this poetic idea that they're trying to communicate, but it's coming across without any of its depth and it's supposed to flow like poetry so it's not hitting all of that those markers of substance that we want, when we're reading the Bible so let's look at the words that are actually there, the first word is God but the God there is that same word for God that we've been seeing so far, in verses 1 and 2 which is Elohim I've got my e-sword up here on the right-hand side of the screen, you can kind of see some of it if you're watching the video, the word there's Elohim it's H430 which is that plural of God which is God's or Divine beings we talked about last week. This definitely included Jesus, because John told us, in the beginning, was the word we also saw that the commentaries really preferred either plan promise provision or motive, instead of translating as word. And then the motive becomes. Human. He is Jesus. So Jesus was there in the beginning, it's part of this plural but it doesn't negate other beings being a part of the creation as well. We apply that understanding to the text like I said because of what we learned later. Now in its original form Genesis chapter one wasn't even, like we said in episode one of season 4 it wasn't a Jewish text it's not a Christian text it's not an Abrahamic text. It's actually a chapter they borrowed when they were in captivity in Babylon, so the meanings of these words could very well have intended by its original writers, to include a whole Pantheon of beings when it said Elohim and it meaning you know a Pantheon of Gods. God said for the Gods, I said now the said there is well it's aw-mar' H559 if you're following along in a Strongs Thesaurus. It is to say and it's used with great latitude it is answer a point of ouch bid boast self call certify challenge charge, um Man commandment commune there's a lot of words there I'm not going to read all of those because it's a pretty lengthy list of things that you can, technically use this word to mean because of that great latitude but you get the idea here of what that word is said. Okay, then we get to the next word, which is be. Now be is haw-yaw' H1961 and that is to exist be or become come to pass always emphatic, and not a mere copula or auxiliary. Yeah, it's not a passive word, it's not a side word it is a main word. My words are failing. Pastor Newms: [48:28] I'm like what were you trying to say. Pastor Bill: [48:31] It's a main word all right, exist and then the next word is light which is ore is the pronunciation there, H216 which comes from H215 and it is illumination for concretely luminary, every sense of the meaning of the word luminary including lightning happiness Etc. It can be bright clear day like lightning morning sun, but even there. Light in this actual in this context right because we have two verses before this is our only actual context. In the context of those two verses and what we broke them down and saw what they meant and how deep they were and what this scene is that we've with it has been painted for us, light is an over simplification of the translation of the word ore. Just like saying darkness in verse 2 which is the word kho-shek' was an over simplification of that word because that word kho-shek', is the word darkness, they translated as Darkness or the dark that one's H2822 from verse 2 which is this chapter one but when we looked at it we saw that it meant that means darkness - figuratively misery destruction death ignorant sorrow wickedness darkness night of security, it doesn't just mean dark is in the absence of visible light that word is so much more than that and to just translate it as darkness as is an over simplification, of the message. They're just like light is an oversimplification of this the concept of what's happening here, is so much deeper than we can really wrap into finite words to try to explain what's going on. But basically, there's always void in this darkness and there's you know the Earth is there and the spirit of God is moving or we said warring could be it was a very aggressive word, on the face of the deep against the darkness against misery and sorrow and all these things. There was no way for life to exist that spark of life wasn't anywhere in the universe. And last week when we were going in John chapter 1 we got to that verse 4 and we were talking about the all of my commentaries agree that the light, was you know the motive was the light in the light was the life of men. That light they were talking about was sentience that it was the spark of life that it was what separates life from not life and that allowed human beings to then, take that step up to awareness of your surroundings and wanting to better ourselves the basic things that are sentience and enlightenment. So then we go back to Genesis and we look at well, were oversimplifying all these words so this light that may have been the word that was used but the meaning behind this word. Is spark of existence is the ability of life, is happiness, is brightness, is joy this all these things, are all tied up right in this work. And so when we look at this verse again and we take everything that we saw in Genesis chapter 1 verse 1 and verse 2 and then we go to verse 3 we no longer see, God said let there be light we get this mental image of God, greeting an old friend named light as if light already exists. So it's this concept of if Newms called me and we hadn't talked in a few days, and it wasn't weird for him to call me because normally he just text, but if it wasn't for him to call me and we hadn't talked in a few days when I picked up the phone I would say, “Newms!” And I would greet my old friend as if he existed right there with me this is the concept were reading about in Genesis 1:3, God said, “Light!” Greeting light as if it existed, happiness joy life the existence of Life the spark of life greeted it as if it existed, called out to something that didn't exist as if it did exist and he was very familiar with it. And then light existed, that's the concept that we're looking at in verse 3. Does that make sense? Pastor Newms: [54:14] Yeah, it's not just like flip the switch thing it's the way it is still making something exists, but it is definitely in a different, feeling then what is sometimes conveyed, to people it is. Pastor Bill: [54:38] And you get a lot of questions at this point. How did light exist if the sun didn't exist yet? How does this work? Why? Well , it's because we're not actually talking about. Pastor Newms: [54:49] Lights. Pastor Bill: [54:50] The light that you are perceiving with your eyes. We're talking about happiness and life and joy and, this is the word that we've translated as light it's not actually light rays from a light source that's not what's being created here. So then we get to the next verse see we're already out of time and I've probably got 15 more minutes in me. Pastor Newms: [55:12] Let's be honest I might have elongated the beginning, so it's okay. Pastor Bill: [55:19] So I'm going to go for 15 more minutes and then what we'll call it okay. So we get to verse 4 and we're using the same word for God. Remember we're only going to do the first half of verse 4. We got the same word that's just this multiple word were talking about this plural God, and then we get to the word saw okay. And this word That We're translating as saw (surprise-surprise) is an oversimplification. The word saw is actually a compound of two separate words or rather it's the usage of two separate words raw-aw' and ayth. Raw-aw' is H7200 and ayth is H853 those are those numbers if you want to go look those up. Now, H7200 is to see, literally or figuratively it's used in numerous applications direct and implied transitively in transitively and causative lie, it is advised yourself appear approved behold considered discern make to enjoy have experienced gaze take heed. It's all the things that you would think of for seeing. Yeah, it is saw that word ayth, however. Is in the demonstrative sense of entity properly self, but generally used to point out more definitely the object of a verb or preposition even or namely as such unrepresented in English well, I'm here to tell you how to represent that in English. You ready okay. Raw-aw' ayth is to look within yourself. So the gods or God looked within themself. It looked within themself and what they found there they found the light. It looked within themself found the light that they had just created. And judging it against themself saw that it was good okay? So God looked inside of himself and given everything that God was, God is, God always will be, judge the light against that. And based off of what God saw inside of himself he declared that it was good. The that there kee H3588. Nothing deep about that word it's just prepositional prefect's its, it indicates casual relationships of all kinds. It's the word that and the word good is tobe, it's H2896, it's good as an adjective in the widest sense use likewise as a noun both in the masculine and the Feminine singular and the plural, good a good or good thing a good man or woman good goods or good things good men or women also an adverb well beautiful best better Bountiful cheerful at ease, fair word be in favor fine glad good, deed, deedlier deadliest deadly deed - Deeds, graciously joyful kindly kindness like if like it's best loving Mary most Pleasant, please have pledged your precious Prosperity ready sweet wealth welfare bewell be favored, good means. In all the sense of good right. It doesn't mean good for something it doesn't mean, taste good it doesn't mean oh yeah that's good but it's not best it doesn't mean you know oh I'm good but I'm not well it doesn't mean you know it's not these modern ways that we use the word good, by good, he was in Eternal fate, that this thing in the widest sense of the definition. Was beautiful best better Bountiful cheerful it's this all-encompassing word of that is a good thing always, God looked within himself and he compared the light to what he saw inside of himself that it was good, remember that light is life that light is that spark of creation that light is, is all the things that would come to be enlightenment it is all the things that would come to be tensions it is all the things that, cause the universe to spin and causes gravity to work and causes you know everything to be, moving and growing and changing and that, without that light, everything just sat stagnant in death and Decay and misery. Darkness there was no moving forward there was no spark there was no change there was no sentience there was no existence. There was just cold dark rocks and primordial ooze. Until God greeted light as an old friend, causing light or causing life to exist spark of life to exist compared life to himself and went yeah life is good. Genesis chapter 1 verses 3 through the first half of verse 4. See what we relegate to elementary school we relegate toSunday school and we relegate to a quippy poem, written in archaic version of English that we've been tried to dumb down and translate down and transliterate into the easiest version to read, it's really some of the heaviest stuff in the Bible it's so deep and so existential. It blows my mind every time I go back and start to study it again. How deep the pictures that are being painted actually are in Genesis chapter 1. Pastor Newms, you have anything you want to add to that? Pastor Newms: [1:03:36] No it's exactly like you said we so often look upon, you know these topics and we glaze over them based on, the English that used to be glazed over them based on what we've been taught and you know it's probably some of the most read parts of the Bible. Pastor Bill: [1:04:02] Second to John 3:16 but yeah. Pastor Newms: [1:04:04] Yeah because and the reason I say this is every year, probably Millions but at least thousands of Christians start a reading plan start with Genesis and then fail somewhere around you know either the Minor Prophets or, you know Numbers cuz some people don't and so. Pastor Bill: [1:04:29] If you're reading the whole Bible in the course of the Year Kudos that's great but you might as well be reading the phone book I mean. Pastor Newms: [1:04:39] Well. Pastor Bill: [1:04:40] Once you're actively studying what are you reading, if you're just reading it to read it and you're not listening to Holy Spirit and you're not pacing yourself. Pastor Newms: [1:04:50] There you go. Pastor Bill: [1:04:51] Right because if you're trying to read it in a year you're reading three chapters a day at least. Pastor Newms: [1:04:57] You are but. Pastor Bill: [1:04:59] Unless you're sitting down and taking all day to read those three chapters you're probably missing a lot. Pastor Newms: [1:05:07] There are some of us that read, and comprehend differently everyone learns differently the spirit speaks to everyone differently so there are people who do get, out of a daily Bible reading like that they do because they take the time to listen to the holy spirit so there is. Pastor Bill: [1:05:27] But it's I would say probably one percent of people that are doing yearly Bible readings are those people. Pastor Newms: [1:05:34] I don't know if it's quite that low but it is lower than what people anticipate the key though is the listening, and a lot of people there are some people who do the reading and don't do the listening, and those are normally the people who will not make it through because you're not going to get anything out of, large portions I never make it through because I forget it exists because. Pastor Bill: [1:06:07] I never make it through because they're like Read Genesis chapters 1 through 3 today and I'm like I get through the first five verses of Genesis and I'm done for the day and I'm like I'm so far behind by the end of the first week, but I'm like I can't even catch up at this point. I can't even catch up. Pastor Newms: [1:06:28] No I understand but I'm just saying there are so because of that this is some of the you know most read parts of the Bible because if you pick up a book you start at the beginning and that's what everyone does and so, it's interesting how much people will miss if they just blow through it, don't think on it don't apply the, the studying aspect and just blow through reading it because all I know the Judges I know Genesis is easy I've been taught Genesis since I was little like that's an easy story I know it just like put, do you understand the meanings behind the heavy words that are used not just, you know yes this happened. Pastor Bill: [1:07:24] And if you try to translate Genesis with all that weight behind it, they would probably be 10 times longer you know if you really tried to explain in the full concept of what actually is there. Now you don't think so. Pastor Newms: [1:07:45] Because I mean, you get into farther parts of Genesis and there's even weightier stuff that would take you know there's this some of its real big so I do. Pastor Bill: [1:08:04] Honestly honestly I don't even think, I don't even think Genesis is a good place to start if you're a new Christian or if you're just like, I'm gonna start reading the Bible I don't think Genesis is a good place to start anyway like we said like the first ten chapters of Genesis, they're not Christian text or not Abrahamic text or not Jewish texts there straight history, from the viewpoints of other cultures, that then someone in the Jewish realm said that seems like truth to me we're going to include that. I used to really start in Genesis and then as Jesus makes references. Pastor Newms: [1:08:54] You said Genesis as you should start in Genesis I know that's not what you meant. Pastor Bill: [1:08:59] You should start in Math maybe not Matthew. I would think I would start in mark. Pastor Newms: [1:09:08] You would a lot of people say start in John. Pastor Bill: [1:09:12] Mark was the first one next you write the Gospel his gospel and then. Pastor Newms: [1:09:15] No I understand why you would say. Pastor Bill: [1:09:17] Matthew and Luke both had a copy of Mark when they were writing there's and then you know John is good, but even John is a little deep for starting I think it would be better started Marks you get the overview of the story and then we John so you get the deeper behind the story, and then move on beyond there and honestly only go back to the Old Testament, when the New Testament references it. And then when you're done with the New Testament if you like you know what I want to go do a deep study about you know what all this stuff is and the origins of it didn't go back to the Old Testament. And read through it because the New Testament when they quote the Old Testament they're very clear that they're quoting the Old Testament and you can easily go back and go okay well where's this quoting and if you don't understand it. It's all cross-referenced Every Bible you're ever going to get it's going to have cross-references so that you can go back and understand what you know why they're saying it this way why they do it that way. The only time you should be in the Old Testament is when you intend to study you shouldn't just be there to read. That's my take on it. Pastor Newms: [1:10:44] Yeah I. Pastor Bill: [1:10:45] You may disagree that's and that's okay. Pastor Newms: [1:10:46] We do on this one and that's okay the eye I like both as far as, if you are a new Christian I agree with you wholeheartedly please, he's starting the New Testament because you're going to get caught up in some stuff and not until you understand the grace of the New Testament you can get caught up in some Old Testament stuff that's going to flip you but. Pastor Bill: [1:11:12] Yeah for goodness sakes First and Second Kings are just lists of ways that people are screwed up and need a savior like, that's all first and second Kings are and Judges. Judges is the same way. Pastor Newms: [1:11:27] Yeah so I mean it's definitely the old. Pastor Bill: [1:11:30] List of example after example after example after example after example of why we need a savior and you're sitting here reading these awful things, and thinking is this cool it's just okay that things that they're doing and it's like no it's not. That's the whole point of that book. Pastor Newms: [1:11:49] Yeah the whole point of the first half is “no” and so. I do think once you have settled there is time to there is a time to reflect on the whole thing. Pastor Bill: [1:12:04] But see that's the thing is the reflect not just read but actually take it in. Let me add on a qualifier then casual. Do not casually read the Old Testament. Pastor Newms: [1:12:36] Right. Pastor Bill: [1:12:38] That's my qualifier because most people casually read. Pastor Newms: [1:12:43] That's true I'll give you that one I'll give you. Pastor Bill: [1:12:47] Should never be casually reading. Pastor Newms: [1:12:49] I don't think I'm able to casually read I don't think that's why I have so many books behind me. Pastor Bill: [1:12:57] You can casually read the book of Acts you can, you literally have there's no hidden secrets in the book of Acts it is literally God did this miracle for the church then God did this thing through the church and then God did this thing too. And if they're not excited about God moving on the Earth, then you can casually read it. Now myself Acts doesn't particularly excite me, it just doesn't. I get it God moves God does things I believe it, it's cool, other people read acts and they get all excited about it and that's fine for them that's cool but you can technically casually read it you don't have to do a whole bunch of study to take any information there. The Old Testament is not written that way. All right well that's what we have for tonight I hope you guys enjoyed it.

Season 3 Episode 89: Relationships For The Modern Christian Part 2 , Pastor Newms [0:00] Hello and welcome to episode season 3 episode 89 of the brand Manifesto faith hope and love for the modern Christian I'm Pastor Newms and, wow you look tired thanks my my eyes might be droopier than normal but that's that's mean the best fairy me so. Couple things you guys might notice some stuff if you are watching instead of listening if you're listening you won't notice anything of what I'm talking about and. [0:37] You should join us on Sunday nights and watch. You might notice this is a completely different room now you might not fully be able to tell but like. You see the things are hung up there the posters in a slightly different place there's less wall we are in a completely different part of the house with the help of the best, Phoenix zaidi both the girls. And my Biggs and myself doing very little work because I'm lazy. We moved my entire office from downstairs to upstairs the best you moved the thing that everything sits on up here with me. I understand that Biggs did the majority of everything let's be honest and Serafina was a huge help. And zaidi was a huge help, and Rayne was here as much as I could he moved the chair he moved this he helped move stuff out of my office while I was having a mild panic attack. [2:01] I think he did a little more. [2:06] You did nothing bullcrap to okay anyway so this week's been a little crazy um we. [2:14] Are getting ready for some changes in our house we're fixing to have a new roommate. And so because of that we've been moving rooms around we moved the girls room a little while ago we moved. The guest room we flipped the guest room and Seraphoina's old room we moved everything around. And we actually drilled holes in my house to run Internet upstairs, which that was an interesting experience today I had every all of my all of this setup sitting on a small table downstairs in case we didn't get the internet moved and up on time I would be at this like little tiny table in a room that is completely empty and would have been so echoing which the echo might be up here for now because this room is not finished but yeah we got lots of stuff hung. [3:22] Biggs hung, two of the puzzles that had not been hung yet which gives me motivation to complete the puzzle that is downstairs I'm hoping with the setup of this room this new office quote-unquote I might be able to pull off having a puzzle table up here don't know if I'm going to pull it off but that'd be really cool so we'll see but it's been a crazy week. Work is real busy got a lot going on at work but. Life is good life is good we've got some big changes next week I have no idea how I'm going to be next week because I am actually flying to DFW, helping my friend pack the truck and then driving out here on Friday and then Saturday and then so Sunday early, we'll be unloading the truck and bringing all his stuff. So that's going to be great he's gonna be around a lot more which is a lot of fun and so we're going to be good. [4:32] But life is crazy over the next couple of weeks and that's okay that is all. I have the hiccups that is okay all right I think I am sufficiently. Warmed up because I am I know I'm talking a mile a minute because I am. As the best said I am actually really tired. So we might get a little Pastor newms uncut if we're not careful today all right so now it's everyone's favorite time of the night except me. Get to know the pastor's where I'm going to pull my check card let's see what our question for today is our question for today is. If you had to change your first name what would be your new first name hahaha all right y'all this is the easiest one in this entire deck this is the easiest question because obviously my first name is not actually newms but yet. [5:35] That's what I call myself that's what my. Grant grandchildren I old I ain't that old that's what my godchildren call me that's what my wife calls me it's what my sister calls me it's what it's what everyone calls me except for in my professional life over here in the medical programming World other than that everyone calls me Tunes, and has four, over 20 years yeah even even my parents do on occasion my mother even does which is really funny when when Grandma Gloria does that's really funny anyway. My wife's parents call me I mean everyone calls me names and as you guys know you think I do it just in chat but I call Biggs Biggs all the time too that's just that's just normal and don't pay too much attention to my nails they're really bad for moving stuff all day and we did not have time to fix them but that's okay so just don't look too closely at my nails I'll move my hands really fast so that way that won't happen all right, so yeah I changed my name to newms it's a pretty pretty easy one my wife I can answer hers right off the bat, it would be z80 she loves 80. [6:59] Oh thank you Phoenix for saying that because they feel really really bad my girls I'm not sure for my girls what they would change their name to I'm pretty sure Sarah would actually change her name to Sarafina though I'm pretty sure she would, finish that in elongation and Rain might actually. Go with rain Phoenix says she would not call herself Phoenix and that's okay that's okay. [7:43] We have so many people with mr. groggy's first name in our lives. We have to call mr. gargi groggy all the time because of how much how many people we have that our has his first name. So that's fun sorry I just clapped in that echoed on there, and not a house not a housemate I don't understand what Phoenix. [8:32] Yeah it's a this is a softball question and that's okay that's okay I would really really be interested in in Pastor bills answer. [8:44] But that's that's that's hate it don't get it today okay so. We are sufficiently warmed up we are right at we're actually about a minute earlier than we normally are with our warm up because we're at 14 minutes but that's okay so I will recap last week so for one of the first times for me we have done a part two, so last. Week we talked about relationships for the modern Christian we talked about our spouses and we talked about our children we talked about our significant others, when's 80 walks around up here you can see here in the glare of The Boondock Saints poster which I didn't realize which is funny, but so we talked about spouses and how we should treat them and you know verses that are, used a lot and then taken out of context and taken too far and people only like to follow the first half and not the second half you have to go back and listen to get the full details mhm that's episode 88, eat for all those people out well 388 depending on how you listening we talked about our children and how we should, love our children and treat our children correctly and raise them correctly not just authoritative. [10:07] This how we have to have the give-and-take and we have to you know children have to be handled. Correctly and so we talked about that and then we were going to talk about friendship. But we talked a lot and we ran out of time so. I split it into 2 because we can do that if we get into a topic so the reason I wanted to include friendship so much in when we're talking about relationships overall is because of the fact that. [10:49] You don't crawl across floor just walk that is so distracting she's crawling across the floor. [11:01] All right so. Friendship so friendships are so important because let's be honest when you deal with relationships all the relationships we have in life spouse. We a lot of us only have one or a few in our lives children most of us have one two three. Some have you know upwards of 10 12 but you know most of us have just a few friendship though we deal with on a daily basis and, most people have more friends throughout their lifetimes then they will spouse or children so friendship is so important in Friendship is is. Some have you know friendship is one of those things where when we talk about friendship it's more than just friendship it's it's how we interact with people at while we are being friendly it's how we. [12:05] You know. The people we interact with how we should be doing friendship evangelism how we should be you know growing the community of people around us as Phoenix said there are some times in your life where you have none you have no friends at the moment. I know both Phoenix and zaidi have gone through long amounts of time like that, and Phoenix has built a nice little Community now for herself around her and, now that Sadie is working again she's making friends even though she won't admit to it, she's probably going right now but she has a promise see she said blah before I hat see I love my wife, so You know one of those things is in those friendships in those Community you meant Phoenix meant kids not friends that makes more sense because Phoenix has no kids except for nieces, and nephews of friends and you know. Her community I just kicked my computer that is not going to work where I've put it because I just kicked it hard so we're going to move that after stream. [13:20] He did not work okay so friendships so we really have to look at all these all these facets of people that come into our lives and how we should treat them and you know we have the story which is not in my notes at all but you have the story of you know how you treat your neighbors and treat your people around you and we deal with you know the. The person on the road the Good Samaritan you know when we look at the story of the Good Samaritan and I might have to look it up real quick what the reference is of it because I didn't have it pulled up for this so, when we look at something like that how should we. [14:10] How should we look at the Good Samaritan Luke 10 25 through 27 okay Luke. Luke 10. [14:28] Twenty-five to thirty seven so we're going to read in the csb and I don't have to type it out because I don't I don't have it in my notes 1025 through. 37 there was an expert of the lost it up testing him him being Jesus saying teacher what must I do to inherit eternal life. What is written in the law he asked him. How do you read it so Jesus asked him a question back and he answered he being the expert of the law. [15:03] Love the Lord your God with all your heart all your soul all your strength and with all your mind and your neighbor as yourself, Jesus answers you answered correctly he told him do this and you will live but wanting to justify himself he asked Jesus and who is my neighbor. Jesus Took up the question and said A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell in the hands of robbers they stripped him beat him and fled leaving him half dead, a priest happened to be going down that road when he saw him he passed by on the other side in the same way a levite, when he arrived at the place saw him and passed by the other side but a Samaritan on his journey came up to him when he saw the man he had compassion he went over to him bandaged his wounds pouring an olive oil and wine and then put him on his own animal, brought him to the end and took care of him the next day he took out two denarii gave them to The Innkeeper and said take care of him when I come back I'll reimburse you for whatever extra you had to spend, which of these three do you think was a neighbor. [16:17] To the man who fell in the hands of the robbers the one who showed Mercy to him he said Jesus said go and do the same now there's a couple things to look at here when we talk about neighbor and I'm going to equate neighbors and friends in some of this but then friends of course there's different layers or friendship but neighbors is that like Outer Circle of Friends like people that you should be friendly with but aren't friends like acquaintances almost, but in that those people we should even treat the this well so. [16:48] If you look at the Jews and you look at the Samaritans they did not like each other we've talked about that in the past another podcast they did not like each other at all not even a little and so. The fact that he the Samaritan took care of the man. Is huge so much so they didn't like each other when the man gave Jesus his answer he did not even say it was the Samaritan he said it's the one who showed him Mercy because he didn't want to admit, that in Jesus's story in the parable that he gave that. It was a Samaritan who did the good thing because we can't talk about that like it's got to be you know and so because of that. That's that's one example of like that Outer Circle and that's the Outer Circle that's just the person you walk up to on the street type of friendship so then we have you know, other types of friends as you get closer into your inner circle and we're going to cover a couple of those in this friendship, talk that we're having tonight and you know by talk I mean of course I'm talking and I'm hoping others are talking back to me and we're gonna go from there now it's big said in here. [18:16] They were inseparable that's the kind of friendship that's that inner circle friendship and we're going to talk about that in a couple of verses throughout down when we get down to the very bottom you know those people that are so close to you. So the first one we want to look at here is first Thessalonians 5:11 and so when we're looking at this. [18:40] 1st Thessalonians five. [18:47] 11 so this is talking to her about the day of the Lord and so it's talking he's talking to brothers and sisters you know in Christ he's talking to the whole thing and he says therefore. And we should always back up a little when he says therefore so we'll jump up to nine for God has not appointed us to wrath but to obtain salvation through Lord our Lord Jesus Christ who died for us that while we were. Awake or asleep we may live that whether we are awake or asleep we may live together with him therefore encourage one another and build each other up as you were already doing so, for the people in this decimal that's alone then Laika the people that Thessalonians was written to. Cuz we're not going to try to say that word again. Paul says hey you're doing it already you're encouraging each other keep it up it's so important and so that's one of those things you know we see an encouragement from Paul of hey you're doing it right I'm not even correcting you just keep it up you're doing good so we've got to continue to do that in our own lives so, one of the the next area I want to go to is Ecclesiastes. And in Ecclesiastes when we're looking at. [20:13] 47 through. Insert here in 7 and it says again I saw from. Fertility Under the Sun there is a person without a companion without even a son or a brother, and there was no end to all his struggles his eyes are still not content with riches who am I struggling for he asks and depriving myself of good things this to is feudal and a miserable task. [20:46] And we're going to keep going into nine two are better than one because they have a good reward for their efforts for if either Falls His companion can lift him up but pity the one who falls without another to lift him up also if to lie down together they can keep warm but how can one person alone keep themselves warm and if someone overpowers one person to can. Resist him a cord of three strands is not easily broken and that's kind of where it wraps up. This particular section then we move on to you know something about Kings but when we look at that you know this is the an Old Testament aspect of looking okay. You've got to have relationships people have to be in your lives otherwise you can't really. [21:36] Go at it so that's starting to talk about that close friendship of this is one of those examples of hey you should have someone who's close to you who can pick you up when you fall who can and. That aspect of you should have someone who can pick you up when you fall in order to have that you must be willing to pick other people up when they fall. It's a two-way street with situations like that you can't just be like arm going to do this and you're going to do this for me and that that's not friendship, friendship is both sides you have to be able to come together as it talks about like a rope you know three strands is best to strains is better than one you know when you start to curl that. [22:22] I just thought of a really funny example so I used to vape real have a real heavy and, like the competition coils and used to make my own wire you spend my own wire and make my own coils and if you ran one wire, and just ran it you know it would burn if it turns on and off on and off on and off no big deal if you ran. [22:50] Or you ran three I ran a fat one and two small ones and they would all become one, big thing and they would heat it different temperatures and The Taste would be phenomenal because of that that, that combined strength of the three wires together that that group of people we have that Community we have you know things like that is so important. So we're going to jump down to Kind of a Funny example that I found when I was researching this topic which is not super funny but it's funny if you know the situation which is job 6:14, and joke job's kind of an interesting book Job loses everything. And. His kids died his everything gets destroyed his farm his lands his Vineyard everything well then his he's got these friends that show up and, they blame him for all of it even though he was just and. [24:04] It's really funny because he did not have good friends. And so then right here he writes in 614 a despairing man should receive loyalty from his friends even if he abandons the fear of the Almighty. Even if this was my fault you should still be my friend and for one of these aspects the, it's funny because of the story but I pulled this also for the fact that when we're talking about friendship our Circle of Friends, does not have to be 100% Christian and shouldn't be if we believe in Friendship evangelism but it. Even if someone walks away if he abandons the fear of the almighty if they if they act a fool it doesn't matter we should still support our friends. That doesn't mean we have to. Help them with destructive things but we should always be there and be loyal and be bringing them up. Is in John and this is Jesus talking again John 1523. [25:32] John 15 note 1512 and 13 and in this area. [25:41] He's talking about how he is divine and you know different aspects of it. And right here he talks about this is my command love one another as I have loved you. No one has greater love than this to lay down his life for his friends and then you know when we look at that. [26:07] Here we will actually continue on. Here in verse 14 he says you are my friends if you do what I command you I do not call you servants anymore because a servant doesn't know what his master is doing. I've called you my friends because I have made known to you everything I have heard from my father you did not choose me but I chose you I appointed you to go and produce fruit and your fruit shall remain so that whatever you ask of the father in my name he will give you this is what I command you love one another so I'm going to change that to through 17 yeah. [26:47] And you know I find it interesting here when he's given this Parable and then he's like no one in all seriousness like love each other. You should be willing to give your life for your friends and he's also alluding to the fact that he's about to give his life for. His friends and his people. And so we really have to look at that and take that to heart that whole aspect of you know, loving each other helping to bring each other up and you know this is still. [27:25] You know this is that middle area, between acquaintance and like best friend scenario but when the next thing we're going to look at here is in Proverbs so we're going back to the Old Testament, super jump to Proverbs to do Proverbs 17. And we're going to go 17 to 18. [27:59] This is a friend loves at all times and a brother is born for a difficult time now my sister, who is Phoenix knows that a brother is born for a difficult time, that poor girl has been put through it by her evil older brother but that's beside the point one without sense enters an argument and puts up security for his friend. One who loves to offend love Strife but one who builds a high threshold invites injury when his Twisted mind is not succeed when his sister speech will run a man father's a fool to his own sorrow father of a fool, has no joy you know we're continuing on through this but that that section that's so important is a friend loves at all times. One without sense and there's an argument and puts up security for his friend so a friend loves at all time but but. [28:57] We don't do crazy things that are detrimental to ourselves and our friends just because we're friends so like your friend owes a bookie a whole bunch of money. [29:10] Don't go put up your money just because. [29:17] Your boy is probably going to pay him off in the next few minutes. Cuz your boy might not so you have to don't bet against people just because if your friend is in the wrong. Don't just go and defend. You know if your friend you know you got two people they're arguing and they're like I bet you a hundred bucks that you know I've got seven kids. [29:43] And the guys like yeah I know you have eight and starts arguing with him. When your friend is being wrong and you just walk up you're like yep he's right he's always right put your money down no don't don't go into situations and harm yourself just because. You have a friend now on the flip side of course someone will give his life for his friends so we have to look at that there's some gray area there. Look at that a situational benefit basis you know is this healthy for my friend am I causing them harm. Am I causing them, you know it will do this make their lives better or worse you know sometimes we do have to look at situations like that but that's a case-by-case benefit basis that you have to take up with the Holy Spirit of when you should charge in and but, charge into the defense of your friend when they are wrong and you're just going to get yourself into more trouble and zadie you know zaidi said what how do you forget a kid exactly don't argue with someone when they're talking about how many kids they have when you don't know like it's you're going to lose unless. [31:08] You're the one guy off that old Arthur movie who didn't even named his kids he numbered them because he cared about them that little that guy might be wrong on how many kids he has but other than that it's probably not going to happen. So [31:26] You know in talking about friends and in talking about you know stuff like this there is something that we have to look at that is important, which is Proverbs 27:17 and this is probably. Maybe the most quoted verse when it comes down to. [32:03] What this means is you know if you've ever seen. You know a knife person who's working a knife person who's doing they rub you know against that iron bar to make it sharpen now to be clear just for anyone out here who knows this when you do that. It only gives you a little bit of a sharpness if you don't have that edge already made if you're not trying to be Sharp, it won't sharpen that's not going to sharpen it you have to use a wet stone but that's beside the point that's part of this though you should be surrounding yourself, you're close Inner Circle that that Circle that is like your best people they should be able to sharpen you you should both have a point you should both be trying to go the same direction, to a certain degree and you guys should there should be qualities that they can sharpen now does that mean every friend that is in that perfect circle is exactly like you and has the same goals in mind and is walking in the same no I have two best friends. One of them you all know is Pastor Bill one of them your meet again at some point and. [33:19] He is completely different. [33:23] You know him and Bill are Polar Opposites not fully but in a lot of ways but there are aspects that are exactly the same he helps keep me humble he helps keep me grounded he helps remind me that I have to love people, just like Pastor build us there's things that he sharpens Me on he challenges me professionally he challenges you know there are aspects, that he's pushing me towards and so you have to have in that inner group people who are going to challenge you people who are going to push you you just have Yes Men surrounding you or else you're not going to sharpen yourself you're going to end up, cut and dull meat all day and if you're cutting and cutting and cutting and you're the only one who is sharp or you're the only one who is trying you're going to end up duller, by the end of this is always this phrase you hear so often you know show me your friends and I'll show you your future and to a large degree. That's true if you don't have friends that are going to sharpen you then you will end up dollar. So you kind of have to you have to look at things like that it's so important and. [34:44] You know that's really all I got for this is we have to look at each other and we have to understand that. We are we are called to have friends as Christians we should not be doing life alone if you're in a church that doesn't have small groups find one if you don't have. A community set out to find one you know, checked which for random things that you like to do like Phoenix with building Legos and stitching things, you know there's a whole Community out there if people that are like that the internet has allowed us to connect with them so fine people that challenge you and and help build you up and, that's what we got to do we've got to do life together with our friends moving forward trying to be better. [35:41] So yeah find some friends love on each other. Be good to each other you know those things yeah those are important that's all I have. [35:57] So we love you guys. Yes and as Phoenix said you have to love yourself too which sometimes stinks but we have to try every day have to try so we love you guys we hope you guys have a great week, you guys be safe out there and until next time.
