Send us Fan Mail“God Is Findable: A Real Conversation on Pain, Purpose, and Hearing His Voice”In this episode of Greater Formation & Power, Coach Tom sits down with Sarah Shaw—a creative entrepreneur and emerging leader with a passion to help her generation encounter God in a real and personal way.Sarah shares her journey from a questioning, multi-denominational upbringing to a deep, hard-won faith shaped through suffering, identity crisis, and honest wrestling with God. After a severe autoimmune health breakdown in her teens, she faced years of pain, isolation, and confusion—forcing her to confront deeper questions of identity, purpose, and God's presence.Through that season, Sarah began learning how to hear God's voice, steward hardship, and move beyond surface-level Christianity into authentic relationship. Today, she leads creative and entrepreneurial initiatives that explore the intersection of theology, psychology, and creativity—helping others “wrestle well” and discover that God is truly accessible.This conversation explores:How suffering can become a catalyst for identity and formation What it actually means to hear God's voice The danger of shallow, cultural Christianity Why “wrestling with God” is essential for real faith The importance of being willing to step back, heal, and be “benched” in leadership Practical ways to encounter God personally in everyday life If you've ever felt stuck, confused, or distant from God—this episode will help you re-engage with honesty, depth, and hope.

New Zealand mother Sarah Shaw has described her traumatic ordeal in United States immigration detention, where she and her son were held for three weeks after a visa mix up at the US-Canada border. She's finally made it back to her home state of Washington, but is required to wear an ankle monitor and still faces further court appearances. She said she's full of gratitude to the friend who relentlessly publicised her case and pressured US authorities. Kate Green reports.

The lawyer for a New Zealander detained in US believes Sarah Shaw's case attracted international attention because she's a young pretty white mum, and said there are thousands of other immigrants locked up, that the world shouldn't turn its back on. The mum and her six year old son were detained, when she re-entered the States from Canada without a fully renewed visa. After her story went global, Sarah was released on the weekend. Her lawyer Minda Thorward spoke to Lisa Owen.

Supporters of a New Zealand woman and her young son being held in a US immigration centre are pinning their hopes on a second attempt to be released on compassionate grounds. Sarah Shaw and six-year-old Isaac were detained by the United State immigration authority - known as ICE - nearly three weeks ago after she tried to re-enter her home state of Washington from Canada without the correct documents. The mother and son have been shipped the length of the country to a facility in Texas and have been unable to be released since. Rowan Quinn reports.

A Kiwi woman and her six year old son could soon be released from a Texas immigration detention centre after being locked up there for weeks.

Headache, nausea and sensitivity to light are all common symptoms of migraine. According to the BBC, one in five women suffer from migraines. Studies also show that between two to three times as many women endure them as men – a ratio that fluctuates depending on stage of life. Kim Chakanetsa speaks to two women whose lives have been shaped by migraines. Sarah Shaw from New Jersey, USA, has lived with chronic migraine for 10 years. After years of searching, Sarah finally had a breakthrough with treatment last year – when she found a Black neurologist. Sarah journey with migraine led her to a job in patient advocacy for Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC) patients, with the non-profit patient advocacy organization, the Global Healthy Living Foundation. Lise R Øie is a Norwegian neurologist and postdoctoral research fellow at the Norwegian Headache Research Centre (NorHEAD). Lise conducts clinical research on migraine treatment, and is currently looking into a blood pressure preventative treatment for migraines. (Image: (L) Sarah Shaw, courtesy Sarah Shaw.

We have a scary sound reel, a cover of Monster Mash, and some facts about bats! What are your favorite parts of Halloween? Let us know! Thank you to Jack Medved, Julian Camerino, Claire Feth, Matthew Fotinos, Jonathan Garcia, Kaitlyn Johanson, Santiago Milanino, Stephanie Monis, Renee Morneau, Sarah Shaw, Brian Corder, Aaron Francis, Lisa Mellow, Sergio Leal, Ricky Parral, Nancy Terrey, and Eric Recillas  Thanks for listening and tune in next time!

You're listening to Artbeat Radio, a program of Able ARTS Work. Nancy: Welcome back to Artbeat Radio. Today, we celebrate Group: Halloween! Brian: Coming up is the song that we've been covering called ,The Monster Mash, and it's a graveyard smash and its groooooovy!  *Cover of The Monster Mash plays* Nancy: Next, we have a spooky sound reel by San Diego. Listen in as we hear Zombies and Ghosts. Hit it, San Diego!  *growling and moaning heard with footsteps. A door creaks open. Chains are heard, followed by ghostly moans and zombie noises* Eric: Up next, we present a special guest named, Jack. This man knows a lot about bats and he's going to tell us all about it. Take it away, Jack! Jack: Boo! *laughter* Got you, didn't I? I know that Halloween is coming soon, but there's a classic Halloween animal that's probably one of the most misunderstood. Today, I'm going to tell you all about bats, but remember, don't listen to the scary myths about them but before we can get started let me tell you something here. It's our job- no, our duty to dispel the popular notion about them. How's that going to help? Well, let's get started here.  Bats have good eyesight. There's never a bat that's blind. Bats aren't really scary. The reality is they're shy and gentle creatures. They're harmless! Bats do hang by their feet. How do they do that? Bats feet hook backwards. Their toe claws are hooked so they can hang upside down while they sleep! All bats have an amazing technique called echolocation. Come on, say it with me! Echo...lo... cation! Well, let me show you how it works. When he makes a sound, like a high-pitched squeak, the sound bounces off an object and the sound comes back to the ear. To let them sense their surroundings it in fact they can detect objects as thin as a human hair in total darkness.  A little brown bat can eat over 600 mosquitos in an hour! Which makes it a less itchy place here. Goodbye bug spray, hello bats! Did you know that some bats fly South for the winter? and speaking of which- from Mexico all the way to South America- The Vampire Bat! The most misunderstood bad in the world. But don't worry, vampire bats don't get blood from people. *buzzer sound* It's just not true. Vampire bats don't get blood from people at all. See, they prefer mammals and birds native to their environments. Did you know there are about 1,100 different kinds of bats in the world! And they're all so different! but the biggest ones are the great Indian Flying Fox and the Gold Crown Fruit bat. It's not how you look, it's who you are. Bats are the good guys! They're our friends. *Outro music by Artbeat Radio staff*  We hope you enjoyed this episode of Artbeat Radio. For more information, please go to our website. Ableartswork.org.

Welcome back to Artbeat Radio!  In this episode, service users from the Music Literacy and Music Studio classes at Able ARTS Work San Diego invite listeners to hear about what their classes are like, what they are excited about learning, and what they have been working on!Featuring: Jonathon Garcia, Stephanie Monis, Liam Porter, Claire Feth, Santiago Milanino, Sam Beyer, Matthew Fotinos, Sarah Shaw, Kaitlyn Johanson, Josh Andrews, Max Lecanu-Fayet  Thanks for listening and tune in next time! For more information about our organization, please visit our website www.ableartswork.org  Audio Transcription: (Please listen on Podomatic or Spotify to view the full transcript) *Intro music by Artbeat Radio staff*  Music, stories, and more! You're listening to Artbeat Radio, a program of Able ARTS Work. *Music plays  (Matthew) Alright! Do it!  (Jonathon) Hello everyone and welcome to Art Beat Radio.  (Stephanie) This week's episode will be featuring students from the Music Literacy and Music Studio classes at Able Arts Work San Diego.  (Start background music)  (Liam) You may be asking yourself, ‘what is music literacy?'  (Liam) Basically, music literacy is how to read, write, and understand music.  (Claire) We start class with music appreciation.  (Santiago) We listen to a song carefully and explore the emotions it makes us feel.  (Liam) Doing music appreciation teaches us how to explore our emotions because songs can have more than one emotion.  (Jonathon) Mixing major and minor chords can give us a complex feeling like bittersweet.  (Stephanie) If you want to be literate in music, first you need to learn the musical alphabet. The musical alphabet has 7 letters.   (Sam) A, B, C, D, E, F, and G.  (Jonathon) Sometimes a note can be sharp.  (Claire) That means the note goes up.  (Stephanie) Sometimes a note can be flat.  (Santiago) That means the note goes down.  (Liam) You can take notes and put them together to make chords.  (Stephanie) Every basic chord is a triad – three notes played together.  (Stephanie) We have learned that in any key, you can make major chords, minor chords, and diminished chords.  (Santiago) Major chords can make us feel happy, calm, good, or bright.  (Claire) Minor chords can make us feel tense, dark, down, or sad.  (Jonathon) Diminished chords are even more tense than minor chords.  (Liam) After a few weeks, we used all of this knowledge to start writing our own song together.  (Stephanie) To come up with a chord progression, we started with the I chord, then experimented with other chord numbers until we came up with something that sounded good.  (Jonathon) For the verse, we wrote a chord progression that goes I to iii to vii to I.  (Liam) For the chorus we wrote a chord progression that goes V to vi to vii to ii. When the chorus repeats, we replace the ii chord with a IV chord.  (Stephanie) Next, we experimented using notes from the chord triads to write a melody. Once we had our chord progression and melody, we listened to it carefully to figure out how the music made us feel.  (Santiago) We chose one emotion to focus on with our lyrics.  (Liam) We chose to focus on heartbreak because we agreed that the music sounded bittersweet.  (Claire) Now we were ready to start writing the lyrics.   (Jonathon) We used a rhyming dictionary and a thesaurus to help us craft the lyrics.  (Santiago) To capture the bittersweet emotion of the music, we focused on the bitter in the verses, and on the sweet in the chorus.  (Stephanie) Once we had the lyrics, we started choosing the instruments we wanted for our backing track and writing those parts in Logic.  (Jonathon) Do you want to hear a preview of our song right now?  (Stephanie) Hi, my name is Stephanie J. Monis. My favorite artist is Taylor Swift because I love her music and she is a songwriter. What I want to learn in this class is I want to put my songs and projects together so I can have some finished songs.  (Sarah) Hi, my name is Sarah Shaw. My favorite recording is Demi Lovato. The thing I'm most excited about in Music Studio class is recording the song I wrote. The song I want to record from my song book is called “All Eyes On Me”.  (Kaitlyn) My name is Kaitlyn Johanson. My favorite song artists are Harry Styles “As It Was” and David Bowie “Star Man”. My favorite recording artists are Kelly Clarkson and Bentley Brown. I'm most excited to learn from studio class this semester recording my voice, reading, and singing.  (Claire Feth) My name is Claire Feth. My favorite recording artists is Celine Dion and Julie Andrews. I'm most excited to play my drums.  (Josh) (Singing and playing piano) Oh, check it out. Hug-a hug-a. Hug-a please, promise. Craig coming. Where's coming coming? Say, Craig!  (Max) Hi, my name is Max Lecanu-Fayet. My favorite recording artists are Matchbox 20 and Enrique Iglesias. The thing I am most excited to learn about in Music Studio is how to make music using the computer.    *Outro music by Artbeat Radio staff*  We hope you enjoyed this episode of Artbeat Radio.

Description:This week's installment features the musical and poetic talents of Able Arts Work, San Diego's Service Users in their Collaborative Episode Who I Am Inside, A Tale as Old as Time.  The first piece Musical Poetry Collage was created in Music Therapy Community.  The students explored components of songs that sooth them and bring a sense of comfort.  Then, they each shared a favorite soothing song with their peers, processed verbally and selected two favorite lines that were synthesized into an original poem.  Finally, the students created an original meditative backing track using loops in Logic and recorded instruments.  If you listen carefully, you may hear familiar quotes from some of your favorite songs as well as Chinese instruments like a Dizi and Guzheng, electric and bass guitars, and an ocean disk.  The second piece is an original poem written by Service User, Sarah Shaw titled, Inside Wins.  Sarah is excited to share words that inspire others to see their full potential and embrace who they are inside.  We hope you enjoy listening and find inspiration of your own!  

A few days before the eminent scholar Lance Cousins passed away in 2015, he revealed to one of his students, Sarah Shaw, that he had been working on a book on Buddhist meditation. After his death, with the permission of his family, Shaw found the manuscript on his desktop and prepared it for publication. The book, "Meditations of the Pali Tradition," is the first comprehensive exploration of meditation systems in Theravada Buddhism, and it offers an in-depth analysis of the ritual, somatic, and devotional aspects of Theravada practice that are often overlooked. In today's episode of Tricycle Talks, Tricycle's editor-in-chief, James Shaheen, sits down with Shaw to discuss a system of Buddhist meditation known as the jhanas, a strain of Buddhist mysticism called Tantric Theravada, and the underappreciated role of joy in meditative practice.

Diseases don't discriminate; anyone can get one or suffer from a chronic illness. But they do disproportionately affect BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities. In this episode, Sarah Shaw, BIPOC Outreach Manager at Global Healthy Living Foundation, describes what it's like being a Queer, Black woman living with chronic migraine, endometriosis, and anxiety and how health care providers must improve interaction with these communities. “Maybe if there have been more representation showing that Queer people get migraine. Black, Indigenous, and People of Color get migraine. Men, Women, Trans, and Non-Binary folks get migraine. If that representation had been there, maybe they would have jumped to a migraine conclusion diagnosis first, instead of what I was pushed on, which was, 'Oh, it's just anxiety or stress,' when I was seeking answers,” says Sarah. Among the highlights in this episode: 1:25: Listener comment 1:49: A fifth shot for the immunocompromised is recommended by the CDC 3:47: The impact of overturning Roe v. Wade is having on the immunocompromised community 6:30: The importance of June being Pride Month, Migraine and Headache Awareness Month, and Juneteenth 7:28: Sarah describes being a Queer, Black woman living with chronic migraine, endometriosis, and anxiety 8:39: “Migraine is part of me, my queer identity is a part of me and they interchange,” says Sarah 9:04: Sarah describes how medical practitioners can help members of the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities 9:41: “I think access to health care and treatment is still such a huge issue for folks in the LGBTQIA+ community,” says Sarah 11:49: Sarah discusses her appearance on the GHLF podcast “Talking Head Pain” 13:47: Sarah's advice for others to speak up and advocate 15:08: What our hosts Steven and Zoe learned from this episode Listen here to Sarah's appearance on Talking Head Pain Contact Our Hosts Steven Newmark, Director of Policy at GHLF: snewmark@ghlf.org Zoe Rothblatt, Patient Advocate and Community Outreach Manager at GHLF: zrothblatt@ghlf.org We want to hear what you think.

A timely essay collection on the development and influence of secular expressions of Buddhism in the West and beyond. How do secular values impact Buddhism in the modern world? What versions of Buddhism are being transmitted to the West? Is it possible to know whether an interpretation of the Buddha's words is correct? In this new essay collection, opposing ideas that often define Buddhist communities—secular versus religious, modern versus traditional, Western versus Eastern—are unpacked and critically examined. These reflections by contemporary scholars and practitioners reveal the dynamic process of reinterpreting and reimagining Buddhism in secular contexts, from the mindfulness movement to Buddhist shrine displays in museums, to whether rebirth is an essential belief. Richard Payne's edited collection Secularizing Buddhism: New Perspectives on a Dynamic Tradition (Shambhala, 2021) explores a wide range of modern understandings of Buddhism—whether it is considered a religion, philosophy, or lifestyle choice—and questions if secular Buddhism is purely a Western invention, offering a timely contribution to an ever-evolving discussion. Contributors include Bhikkhu Bodhi, Kate Crosby, Gil Fronsdal, Kathleen Gregory, Funie Hsu, Roger R. Jackson, Charles B. Jones, David L. McMahan, Richard K. Payne, Ron Purser, Sarah Shaw, Philippe Turenne, and Pamela D. Winfield. Tori Montrose is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Religion at Reed College specializing in Buddhism and Japanese religions.

Podcast: This week on the show we feature a pre-recorded conversation with Richard Payne, editor and contributor to the 2021 Shambhala publication, Secularizing Buddhism: New Perspectives on a Dynamic Tradition. This collection of essays explores how secular values impact Buddhism in the modern world, what versions of Buddhism are actually being transmitted to the West, whether it is possible to know if a given interpretation of the Buddha's words is correct, and whether "Secular Buddhism" is purely a Western invention. Contributors to this volume include Bhikkhu Bodhi, Kate Crosby, Gil Fronsdal, Kathleen Gregory, Funie Hsu, Roger R. Jackson, Charles B. Jones, David L. McMahan, Richard K. Payne, Ron Purser, Sarah Shaw, Philippe Turenne, and Pamela D. Winfield. Richard K. Payne is the Yehan Numata Professor of Japanese Buddhist Studies at the Institute of Buddhist Studies in Berkeley, California. During his dissertation research into tantric fire ritual (Homa) on Mt. Koya in Japan, he also completed training as a Shingon priest (ajari). Clustering around his core research program on tantric ritual are broader theoretical concerns about the conduct of such research. This includes the study of ritual across cultural boundaries and over long durations, and the use of language in tantric Buddhist ritual. He also serves as editor-in-chief of the institute's annual journal, Pacific World, and is the chair of the Editorial Committee of the Pure Land Buddhist Studies Series. His other publications include, Pure Lands in Asian Texts and Contexts: An Anthology, co-edited with Georgios Halkias (2019); Language in the Buddhist Tantra of Japan: Indic Roots of Mantra (2018); and Homa Variations: The Study of Ritual across the Longue Durée, co-edited with Michael Witzel (2016).
