"He was an Egyptian by birth and a great Egyptian ascetic. As a boy, he visited various spiritual teachers and gathered proven experience as a bee gathers honey from flowers. Pimen once begged the elder Paul to take him to St Païsius. Seeing him, Païsius said: 'This child will save many; the hand of God is on him.' In time, Pimen became a monk and drew two of his brothers to monasticism. Their mother once came to see her sons, but Pimen would not allow her in, asking through the door: 'Which do you want more: to see us here and now, or in the other world in eternity?' Their mother went away joy-fully, saying: 'If I will see you for certain there, I don't need to see you here.' In the monastery of these three brothers, governed by the eldest, Abba Anoub, the rule was as follows: at night, four hours were passed in manual work, four hours in sleep and four in reading the Psalter. The day was passed, from morning to noon, in alternate work and prayer, from mid-day to Vespers in reading and after Vespers they prepared their meal, the only one in the twenty--four hours, and this usually of some sort of cabbage. Pimen himself said about their life: 'We ate what was to hand. No-one ever said: "Give me something else", or "I won't eat that". In that way, we spent our whole life in silence and peace.' He lived in the fifth century, and entered peacefully into rest in great old age." (Prologue) His name means "shepherd". Many of his words can be found in the Sayings of the Desert Fathers.

Wrong Side Out: Madness Misdiagnosed by Benton Savage https://www.amazon.com/Wrong-Side-Out-Madness-Misdiagnosed-ebook/dp/B0GRPVD4NX In Wrong Side Out, Benton Savage tells a starkly honest story of living through prolonged confusion, loss of control, and the slow work of reclaiming himself. Told from the inside, the memoir captures what it feels like when judgment falters, reality bends, and everyday decisions carry unexpected consequences, often with lasting personal cost. Savage writes openly about isolation, damaged relationships, and moments when his own instincts could not be trusted, yet the book resists easy explanations or tidy redemption. Instead, it follows a long, uneven path marked by resistance, collapse, persistence, and gradual clarity. The struggle is not abstract or symbolic; it unfolds through real events, real mistakes, and the determination to keep going when forward motion feels impossible. At its core, Wrong Side Out is a story of endurance and self-reclamation, of learning to live with limits without erasing identity, and of finding steadiness after years of imbalance. It is not about labels or diagnoses, but about what it takes to regain footing, rebuild trust in oneself, and fully reengage with life on one’s own terms. About the author Benton Savage's life story is as rich and varied as his lines of writing. His time spent navigating personal changes and traversing the diverse landscapes has indelibly shaped his perspective and literary voice. Today, Benton resides in Fort Walton Beach, Florida where he balances his property management business with his true passion, writing. His daily dedication to capturing his thoughts and experiences on paper is a testament to his unwavering commitment to exploring the complexities of the human condition. His recently released poetry book, Fortune Cookies:100 Sayings to Help you Navigate Life's Challenges, a unique collection of poetic musings that mirrors the paper fortunes found in the heart of a cookie, reached number one on Amazon for new poetry in August 2024. Savage's coming-of-age novel, Free and Satisfied, explores issues with impulsivity, alcohol, and nuances of an interracial relationship, was published in April 2025.

Of all the hard sayings of Jesus, this one is not hard to understand. Jesus is clear with his claim that He is the only way to God, to salvation, to forgiveness of sins, to a life of eternal blessedness and joy, and more. That is what makes this a hard saying to our culture because it is so offensive to be exclusive. In a world of inclusivity that affirms all paths, Jesus contradicts the world's view. Join us for One Worship as we consider the only One who can save us.

“Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.” This saying of Jesus from Matthew 12:21 has troubled generations of people. It is hard in a couple of ways. First, it is hard to understand. It is not immediately clear what Jesus means by blaspheming the Spirit. Neither is it clear why this is not forgivable when a word spoken against the Son of Man is forgivable. Second, it is hard to accept. It is disturbing to think that we can say or do something that forever cut us off from the possibility of God forgiving us. We welcome you to join us this Sunday as we address these questions and attempt to apply this hard saying in a way that honors the context in which our kind Savior gave this warning.Special Guest: Tom Waltz.

The heart of the Gospel is that Christ died for our sins (1 Corinthians 15:3). Central to the Incarnation, Crucifixion, and Resurrection of Jesus is that we need the forgiveness He provided for us to be made right with God. But what about our forgiving each other? One of the Hard Sayings of a Kind Savior is that Jesus said we cannot be forgiven unless we forgive others. Really? Join us as we wrestle with this theme, but even more as we search our own hearts. Having received forgiveness from God, are we willing to forgive each other?

When you think about what you believe as a Christian… where did those beliefs come from?For many, the trail leads back to the apostles, the earliest followers of Jesus, and church leaders like Papias of Hierapolis.Papias was connected to the Apostle John, knew Polycarp, and helped preserve early Christian teaching during the generation after the apostles. Though most of his writings have been lost, what remains gives us valuable insight into the origins of the Gospels, the importance of eyewitness testimony, and the early church's commitment to passing down the truth about Jesus.This episode explores Papias' life, writings, and lasting influence on Christian theology.Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Papias of HierapolisPapias of Hierapolis was one of the earliest church fathers in the Patristic Period and a significant link between the Apostolic Era and the generation that followed.02:00 Papias and His Connection to the Apostle JohnIrenaeus described Papias as a hearer of the Apostle John, and Papias was also known as a companion of Polycarp.03:15 Why Papias MattersPapias was deeply concerned with preserving what the apostles actually taught about Jesus and passing that truth along faithfully.04:30 The Lost Writings of PapiasPapias wrote a five-volume work called The Exposition of the Sayings of the Lord, but only fragments remain through later writers like Eusebius and Irenaeus.05:30 Papias and the Origins of the GospelsThe surviving fragments of Papias give early insight into the origins of the Gospels, including Mark's connection to Peter's teaching and Matthew's original composition.08:10 Apostolic Tradition and Eyewitness TestimonyPapias placed strong value on the oral testimony of those who knew the apostles, emphasizing the reliability of eyewitnesses in preserving the truth about Jesus.11:40 Papias' Focus on Jesus' TeachingsPapias sought to compile and interpret the sayings of Jesus while relying on apostolic sources, helping later Christians understand the early transmission of Christ's teaching.13:00 Papias' Theology and Lasting InfluencePapias taught a premillennial view of Christ's return and preserved early Christian traditions that continue to shape how believers understand the apostles, the Gospels, and early church theology.“Papias gives us a solid historical testimony for the formation of our Christian theology. His story reminds us that the early church wasn't built on rumors or legends that developed some centuries after Jesus ascended into heaven.” – Pastor Jeff CranstonSources: Background on Papias of Hierapoli: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papias_of_Hierapolis

Jesus often got into trouble with the Pharisees and other religious leaders for what he and his disciples did on the Sabbath. In Mark 2:23-28 he reminds the Pharisees (and his disciples) that “The Sabbath is made for man, not man for the Sabbath.” What does Jesus mean by this, and what is the invitation he is making to those who listen? Join us as we unpack how there is rest in Jesus for weary souls who partake in his gift of rest and peace.
What if the secret to a richer, happier life is hidden in the smallest moments? In this episode of Now That You Ask, I reflect on the unexpected power of laughter, connection, and everyday encounters that brighten even the most ordinary days. From playful exchanges at the local shipping store to surprising moments of kindness from strangers, I explore how humor has become one of my favorite ways to connect with the world around me.As I've grown older, I've learned that joy often arrives unannounced. Sometimes it appears in a shared joke, a spontaneous conversation, or simply the willingness to slow down long enough to notice what's right in front of me. Join me as I consider why laughter may be one of life's greatest gifts, how it brings us closer to one another, and why learning to laugh at myself has made every day a little lighter, a little brighter, and a lot more fun.Akasha's BookI'm so excited to announce that my memoir is now available on Amazon.

Send us Fan MailEver said "bite the bullet" or "the whole nine yards" and wondered where those phrases actually came from? In this episode, the guys dig into the origins of common phrases and sayings, separating the real history from the folk-etymology myths almost everyone repeats.This is part history lesson, part comedy chaos. The crew works through dozens of everyday idioms, busts the popular "obvious" explanations that turn out to be wrong, and then fast-forwards to the modern slang taking over in 2026. If you love language, trivia, and unfiltered conversation, this one's for you. (Heads up: explicit language throughout.)Along the way you'll find out why "saved by the bell" has nothing to do with being buried alive, how "caught red handed" traces back to 15th-century Scottish law, and the surprising claim that "the whole nine yards" may have been born right here in Southern Indiana. The second half shifts gears into Gen Z and Gen Alpha slang, breaking down terms like "delulu," "cooked," "beige flag," and a few that are far less printable. If you've got a weird phrase or saying you want the guys to dig into, drop it in the comments.

Should good Christians hate their parents, spouse, and kids? This week's hard saying of Jesus seems to contradict the rest of the Bible. Spoiler alert: He doesn't. Come to find out what Jesus' words mean for your allegiances, security, and identity.Special Guest: Nick Carter.
This is a reading for meditation of selected teachings/sayings of the Desert Mothers, taken from 'Apophthegmata Patrum' (Sayings of the Desert Fathers & Mothers) translated by Benedicta Ward; and Philokia: compiled in the eighteenth century by Macarius of Corinth (1731-1805). The teachings spoken here are from the Mothers - Amma Theodora, Amma Syncletica and Amma Sarah.The Desert Mothers lived primarily in the fourth and fifth centuries, withdrawing to the arid regions of the eastern Mediterranean at a time when Christianity had become legally protected and increasingly institutionalized. Like their male counterparts, they sought the desert as a place of stripping away — a landscape where distractions fell silent and the soul was exposed before God.Some lived in loose monastic communities; others inhabited abandoned tombs, caves, or simple mud-brick cells. Their days were shaped by prayer, fasting, manual labor, and long periods of silence. Water was scarce, food minimal, and illness common. The desert was not romantic — it was a place of bodily weakness and spiritual testing.They were called ammas, meaning “mothers,” a title that conveyed both intimacy and authority. This was not sentimental language. To be an amma was to be recognized as someone whose life had been tested and whose counsel could be trusted.

The most consequential development discussed is the rapid proliferation of Shadow IT in client environments, with emphasis on the unchecked adoption of cloud SaaS applications and artificial intelligence (AI) tools by end users. Speakers noted that this has led to a substantial loss of MSP control over client IT environments, eroding trusted advisor status and prompting clients to question the ongoing necessity of working with their MSP. The pervasive use of AI and SaaS products without guidance or oversight introduces governance and security risks, particularly relating to sensitive business data being accessible to third-party vendors and potentially incorporated into external data sets. The episode provided details on how Shadow IT emerges, highlighting the ease with which employees can adopt SaaS and AI tools through free trials, personal accounts, or non-business credit cards, often outside of IT's direct visibility. According to Amy and El, clients are increasingly self-serving their technology needs, shifting traditional MSP-client dynamics. The conversation outlined specific governance issues, such as most AI tools ingesting client data into the cloud, with limited assurance as to how it will be used or protected unless higher tiers of service are paid for—an unlikely scenario for most SMBs using free versions. Secondary discussion focused on broader industry fragmentation and the challenges it poses for knowledge-sharing, consensus-building, and vendor feedback. The speakers recalled a time when MSP best practices spread rapidly through tightly-knit peer groups or single platforms but observed current information channels are numerous and scattered, such as Discord, Reddit, LinkedIn, and Facebook. This dispersion hinders both MSPs and vendors from collaborating effectively and reduces the feedback loop necessary for responsive product development and operational improvement. The key implications for MSPs and IT leaders include the pressing need to shift operational models from rigid, tool-centric offerings to relationship- and advisory-focused services. There is heightened risk if MSPs fail to address governance and security concerns, especially as end users continue adopting technology independently. Speakers recommend implementing proactive client education, detailed risk analysis on SaaS and AI integrations, and establishing clear communication strategies to reclaim the advisory role. MSPs are encouraged to align compensation models to advisory activities, as future client value is projected to depend more on strategic guidance than product-resale or ticket-resolution metrics.Title: How are you managing Shadow IT?

Recently I watched the very interesting 2016 documentary entitled “Rome: Empire Without Limit with Mary Beard”. Ms. Beard, a very readable British scholar, functioned as host and narrator. Regarding Christ, Ms. Beard said, “one Jewish Rabbi had developed new ideas. His name was Jesus. The Sayings of Jesus, as they were called, were only written down later. But it's clear enough that for the Jews he was preaching blasphemy. And at the beginning at least, for the Romans he was just another troublemaker. However exactly the story went, he was arrested, put to trial, and sentenced to death Roman-style, by crucifixion. The Romans must have thought “problem solved”, but it was only the start.
