Have you ever wondered what it was like to be in the room when the first pelvic embolization was performed or how the TIPS procedure was pioneered? Dr. Ernie Ring, a legendary figure from UCSF and a true forefather of Interventional Radiology, joins host Dr. Peder Horner to recount the early days of the specialty. Dr. Ring shares fascinating stories from his training at Massachusetts General Hospital under Dr. Stanley Baum, where he witnessed the birth of transformative techniques using angiographic catheters to treat life-threatening bleeding. --- SYNPOSIS From improvising the use of autologous blood clot and thrombin to stop massive hemorrhages to his pivotal role in developing the TIPS procedure and specialized biliary catheters, Dr. Ring's career is loaded with innovation. The conversation explores the "cowboy" era of IR, the evolution of essential tools like the glide wire, and the critical importance of maintaining a "high-touch" clinical practice in the face of emerging technologies like AI. Dr. Ring also reflects on his later transition into hospital leadership as Chief Medical Officer, where he applied his problem-solving mindset to institutional quality and safety. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction01:58 - Upbringing from Detroit to Mass Gen 06:55 - Early IR with an Embo Case13:50 - Trailblazing Cases in IR16:17 - Penn and Innovation20:00 - Polarizing Procedures24:13 - IR Device Innovation33:00 - Dotter's Separation from Diagnostics37:30 - Fear Finds Cowboys39:08 - AI and Robotics40:08 - Fun Hobbies

Some arguments grow far beyond the issue that started them, leaving you wondering how things escalated so quickly.

Cathy, Kirsten, and I kick off this year's book club with Separation of Church and Hate by John Fugelsang. This book opened up a deep conversation around how Paul reinterpreted Christianity in the Bible, and how that's shaped much of what we see in modern religion. We also explore the disconnect between the teachings of Jesus and God. Love, compassion, and inclusion and the harmful messages often directed at women and the LGBTQ+ community. There were inconsistencies we couldn't ignore, and this episode is all about unpacking those questions with honesty and curiosity.

In this episode of Many Moments, Many Lessons, I revisit a journal entry that captures what it's like to apologize in good faith, only to realize that the conflict was never really about the moment in front of you. I reflect on how unspoken resentment can snowball beneath the surface, making sincere apologies feel ineffective or dismissed. This episode explores the confusion that comes from responding to the present while being judged for a past you were never allowed to fully see. - - - - - - - - - - - - Want that chapter checklist just Click Here!

Welcome to episode #1021 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). At a time when strategy is often confused with forecasting and certainty is mistaken for rigor, the work of Roger Martininsists on a more demanding discipline: making clear, integrated choices under uncertainty. Named the world's #1 management thinker by Thinkers50 in 2017, Roger is a writer, strategy advisor, and the former Dean at the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto, where he served for fifteen years and reshaped how management education engages with real-world complexity. Over decades, he has advised CEOs at companies including Procter & Gamble, Lego, Ford, American Express, Verizon, and Steelcase, helping leaders move beyond abstract ambition toward actionable, coherent strategies. His thinking has long been a personal touchstone for navigating difficult, high-stakes business problems, and he remains my go-to guide when confronting complexity that resists easy answers… a familiarity reinforced by his return here after previous appearances. Before academia, he spent thirteen years at Monitor, serving as co-head of the firm and grounding his thinking in the realities of corporate decision-making. His newly updated book, Playing To Win, Expanded With Bonus HBR Articles - How Strategy Really Works co-authored with A.G. Lafley, remains one of the most influential strategy texts of the modern era, distilling strategy into a set of five integrated choices about where to play and how to win, supported by capabilities and systems that reinforce those decisions. Across thirteen books and more than thirty Harvard Business Review articles, Roger has explored integrative thinking, democratic capitalism, governance and the design of business itself, consistently challenging leaders to resist false tradeoffs and simplistic answers. His work confronts contemporary issues head-on: the misuse of AI as an answer machine rather than a thinking partner, the hollowing out of education into ideological extremes, the erosion of institutional trust and the persistent illusion that the future must resemble the past. Through it all, his argument is steady and clear: strategy fundamentals endure, and superior managerial effectiveness begins with disciplined thinking, principled choice, and the courage to commit. If you're not following his free Substack, you reall should. It's always an honor to spend tie with Roger. Enjoy the conversation… Running time: 58:39. Hello from beautiful Montreal.

Noticing silence as a pattern in a relationship can be unsettling, especially when it brings more questions than answers. In this episode, I share five gentle ways to steady yourself when unspoken communication starts to feel confusing or heavy. This conversation isn't about confronting or fixing silence, but about supporting yourself as awareness begins to form and learning to stay grounded while clarity unfolds. - - - - - - - - - - - - Want that chapter checklist just Click Here!

Send us a textRHOSLC-Reunion Reckoning: Accountability, Addiction Accusations & a Shocking SeparationPodcast Summary – RHOSLC Season 6 Reunion Part 3Part 3 of the RHOSLC Season 6 reunion picks up in full emotional freefall. Britani storms off after being labeled anti-Semitic, returning in tears while Meredith remains firm that the situation was misunderstood and already resolved. Mary steps into an unlikely mediator role, challenging Meredith's lack of awareness and calling her confusion “alarming.”The bulk of the episode centers on the explosive fallout from the plane ride drama. Whitney takes accountability for labeling Meredith an addict, admitting the comment was dangerous, reactionary, and rooted in frustration over being called a liar. Meredith, however, maintains that accusations about drugs and mood swings are damaging to her reputation and business, even offering to take a drug test on the spot. The tension escalates when Meredith is accused of throwing production under the bus, prompting Whitney, Mary, and others to fiercely defend the behind-the-scenes team.Lisa breaks down over her marriage, feeling undervalued and publicly hurt by John's comments, while firmly refusing to take accountability for things she says she didn't do. Mary bluntly tells her that if her husband says she doesn't listen, he probably knows best — a moment that lands hard.The reunion takes a heavy turn when Bronwyn reveals she and Todd are separated. She opens up about feeling isolated, silenced, and reduced to PR in her marriage, while navigating grief, family caretaking, and public scrutiny. Her vulnerability deeply affects Whitney, who leaves the stage overwhelmed and seeks comfort from Justin backstage, highlighting the emotional toll the season has taken on multiple marriages.As the reunion winds down, unresolved friendships linger — Heather and Meredith confirm they are no longer friends — while Angie and Lisa tentatively agree to move forward. The cast closes with reflections on growth, accountability, patience, acceptance, and change, ending the season with baklava, humor, and a toast to health, sisterhood, and surviving Salt Lake City.Support the showhttps://www.wewinewhenever.com/

Many Moments, Many Lessons is a series based on journal entries I wrote while I was still married, long before separation or divorce was even something I could imagine. These entries capture small, everyday moments that didn't feel significant at the time, moments I was trying to understand in real time. In this series, I reflect on those moments with honesty and distance, naming the patterns I can now see clearly, without blame or rewriting the past. It's about recognizing how clarity often comes slowly, and how many women sense something is wrong long before they have the language for it. In this first episode, I focus on silence, and why silence is not always neutral or harmless in a marriage. Drawing from one journal entry, I explore how unspoken feelings, withheld communication, and quiet expectations can quietly shift responsibility and create confusion over time. If you've ever found yourself guessing, overfunctioning, or apologizing just to keep the peace, this episode offers reflection and recognition, not judgment, and a reminder that silence is not always golden. - - - - - - - - - - - - Want that chapter checklist just Click Here!

Stephanie Ahn discusses Bedford Park, her Sundance U.S. Dramatic Competition debut about a Korean American woman in her 30s pulled back into her parents' home after her mother's car accident, where she meets the man responsible and an unexpected connection begins to form. Ahn shares why she needed to make this film, how growing up Korean American left her hungry for stories that felt real beyond familiar clichés, and why writing Bedford Park meant finally walking straight into something deeply autobiographical she avoided for years.She talks about choosing uncertainty over comfort and taking the scary road on purpose, stepping away from a stable editing career to pursue a story that wouldn't let go. Ahn reflects on journaling as a way into the script, years of rejection, and learning to be ruthless with her own material as the film evolved from a family drama into a more intimate relationship story. Rather than starting with a message, she describes how the film's themes revealed themselves over time, ultimately centering on human connection, being truly seen, and how that clarity reshapes self-understanding.Ahn walks through the long, practical build: seven years of persistence, financing that finally unlocked through relationships and Korean backing, and an unusually deep rehearsal process with actors that stretched across years before shooting in New Jersey. She reflects on editing as a brutal but clarifying search for truth alongside a trusted co-editor, and on the films she kept returning to for structure and inspiration, including A Separation, Secret Sunshine, Rust and Bone, Heat, and The Insider.What Movies Are You Watching?This episode is brought to you by BeastGrip.

Photo by Aneta Pawlik on Unsplash Published 26 January 2026 e540 with Michael, Andy and Michael – Stories and discussion on mobile controllers, AI playing Anchorhead, Zork & Roller Coaster Tycoon, an isometric NYC, human artistic creativity and a whole lot more. Michael, Andy and Michael get things clicking with some mobile controllers.  Starting with one of Andy's latest technology acquisitions, the team enjoys hearing about Andy's experience with the MCON.  And they especially like the “saucer separation” functionality.  The featured image from Unsplash was selected because there were very few TNG images – if you want to see the saucer separation that inspired this week's show title, have a look at the YouTube video below.  After discussing the Anbernic controller, which has some interesting features like a screen and heart rate monitoring, the team moves forward with AI. Claude features in a couple of the stories – first with an article from Fernando Borretti who details how he hooked Claude into the text based adventure Anchorhead.  The co-hosts have been intrigued by this kind of thing for years, and were reminded of the recent open sourcing of Zork.  Ramp Labs also used Claude with Roller Coaster Tycoon, which struck the team as a great way to run optimization routines across a multitude of data points that make us the game.  Next up was a story about using AI to create a SimCity-style rendition of New York City (New York City!) with astounding detail.  There were a couple of jumping off points of note from this story – Nvidia's Omniverse digital twin, traffic optimization routines and another being the language in SimCity called Simlish – and a translator is included below for the listeners to enjoy.

Welcome to episode #1020 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). At a time when technology listens more closely than people realize and advertising feels less predictive than presumptive, understanding how culture, data and human behavior collide has become essential. David "Shingy" Shing has spent his career at that intersection, shaping how global brands think about creativity, relevance and the emotional consequences of digital systems. Know as the Digital Prophet at AOL (and then Verizon) and a very influential voice in modern branding and innovation, Shingy has advised companies, leaders and creatives on how emerging technologies reshape not just markets, but meaning itself. His work has consistently challenged organizations to move beyond optimization toward empathy, imagination and cultural intelligence. He argues that the most important signals in a data-saturated world are often the quietest ones. That perspective now finds a more personal, reflective outlet in his Substack, Shingy, a newsletter focused on branding, culture, AI and the human side of technology. He explores how conversational data, algorithmic inference and attention-driven business models are altering the relationship between consumers and the systems designed to serve them. Shingy examines why ads increasingly feel intrusive rather than helpful, how conversations themselves have become raw material for targeting and why consumer fatigue is less about frequency than about lost agency. Shingy's work surfaces a growing tension between personalization and privacy, usefulness and surveillance, convenience and control. He argues that as machines become better listeners, brands must become better stewards of restraint, intent and respect... or risk eroding the very relationships they're trying to monetize. Grounded in curiosity and creative provocation, his thinking offers a necessary counterweight to an industry too often obsessed with what can be done instead of what should be done.

【主播的话】2025年12月以来，一场由德黑兰大巴扎商贩发起的抗议，很快席卷了伊朗全境。经济急剧恶化，里亚尔对美元暴跌、通胀飙升、食品与燃料价格激增，普通人维生艰难。很快，经济抗议转向了政治诉求，示威者要求改变政治体制，对伊斯兰共和国统治合法性提出了质疑，甚至出现了“回到巴列维”的口号。伊朗政府于 1 月 8 日开始实施全面的互联网封锁，试图切断国内外信息流通。国家安全力量进行了大规模镇压，根据不同人权组织的独立统计，伤亡数据存在较大差距。截至2026年1月18日，抗议者死亡总数估计在 3300 余人至 2 万人之间，成为伊朗近代史上规模最大的屠杀之一。我们该如何理解伊朗最新一轮的动荡？和过去十几年伊朗出现过的抗议，有什么本质不同？很多人对伊朗的印象仍停留在“制裁、神权政治、反美”，这些标签今天还有多大解释力？伊朗算不算一个“失败国家”？伊朗女性的真实处境是怎么样的？远在中国的我们，又为何要关心遥远的伊朗？【本期主播】若含：小红书@若含王磬：微博@王磬【本期嘉宾】文晶：中东研究学者，多次前往伊朗做研究蒲实：资深媒体人，多次前往伊朗做报道【本期剧透】02:40 两次伊朗之行：宗教控制感减弱、城市更现代，但战争阴影依然存在09:25 此次抗议与以往有何不同？12:50 全国断网，街头镇压，来自伊朗内部的最新感受16:10 为什么抗议总从“大巴扎”开始？19:30 伊朗人如何看待美国？伊朗社会真正的“敌人”是谁？25:00 女性、阶级与伊朗社会的张力39:30 中国与伊朗的关系走向如何？42:45 伊朗永远在大国博弈中，扮演这片土地的主人【相关阅读】《美国的中东政策研究：2009–2017年》作者：文晶本书聚焦奥巴马政府时期的中东政策，系统分析了美国在中东的战略选择、政策工具及其实践效果。该书基于公开资料，包括美国国务院、国防部等核心决策机构的官方文件，以及奥巴马本人的中东事务表述，结合国内外既有研究，进行了全面梳理。我在伊朗长大 Persepolis作者: 玛赞·莎塔碧伊朗裔漫画家玛赞·莎塔碧（Marjane Satrapi）创作的自传体图像小说，最初于2000-2001年以法语分四卷出版（《面纱》《安息日》《流落奥地利》《回家》）。作品采用黑白版画风格，融合波斯细密画与法国新浪潮漫画技法，通过作者童年至青年（10岁到24岁）的个人视角，展现了1979年伊斯兰革命、巴列维王朝覆灭、两伊战争等历史事件下的伊朗社会变迁，包括女性被迫戴面纱、政治压迫和家庭生活冲突。一次别离 A Separation导演: 阿斯加·法哈蒂制片国家/地区: 伊朗 / 法国语言: 波斯语上映日期: 2012-11-13(中国大陆)纳德（佩曼•莫阿迪 Peyman Moadi 饰）与西敏（蕾拉•哈塔米 Leila Hatami 饰）是一对夫妻，他们的女儿叫特梅（萨日娜•法哈蒂 Sarina Farhadi 饰）。西敏希望一家三口移居国外，但是纳德坚决反对，原因是纳德的父亲患有老年痴呆症需要照顾。两人为此对薄公堂，准备离婚，但是法院驳回了她的请求。西敏赌气回了娘家。西敏走后，纳德分身乏术，聘请了一位护工瑞茨（萨瑞•巴亚特 Sareh Bayat 饰）照顾父亲。但是，父亲如厕问题始终困扰瑞茨，依《古兰经》教义，她感到禁忌重重。瑞茨的女儿陪伴在她左右，也令她分神。几个回合下来，纳德某次回家发现，父亲被绑在床上，出离愤怒的他推倒了瑞茨。没想到怀孕的瑞茨竟然流产，瑞茨丈夫怒不可遏将纳德告上了法庭，他们各执一词，然而真相却出人意料……“女人·生命·自由”运动一场自2022年起持续至今的全国性社会抗争，核心诉求聚焦女性权利、生命尊严和自由解放。该运动以口号“女性、生命、自由”为标志，引发了大规模街头抗议、国际声援及社会变革讨论。运动的直接导火索是2022年9月玛莎·阿米尼（Mahsa Amini）的死亡事件。22岁的库尔德族女孩阿米尼因头巾佩戴“不规范”被伊朗道德警察逮捕，数小时后离奇身亡；官方宣称死因为“突发心脏病”，但尸检显示其颅脑遭受严重损伤，引发公众对政府暴力的愤怒。阿米尼的葬礼上，女性首次高呼“女性、生命、自由”口号，并焚烧头巾、剪断长发以示抗议，迅速点燃全国性示威浪潮。【本期音乐】Screen Saver - Kevin MacLeod【节目制作】方改则【Logo设计】刘刘（ins: imjanuary)【互动方式】小红书@不合时宜微博@不合时宜TheWeirdo商务合作可发邮件至 hibuheshiyi@126.com 或微博私信会员计划咨询可添加微信：hibuheshiyi3 或发送邮件至 hibuhehsiyi@gmail.com

How does the myth of America being a "chosen" nation lead to the religious nationalism we see today? In a presentation first aired in 2023, Harvard Divinity School's Dr. Catherine Brekus talks about how the myth is a complicated mixture of arrogance, exploitation, reform, racism and violence. She looks at the roots of this myth, how it has played out through our country's history, and how the recent surge of white Christian nationalism reflects a deep uneasiness about the loss of Christian privilege in this country. This program originally aired on June 1, 2023, in season 4 of Respecting Religion.   SHOW NOTES This episode was originally broadcast as episode 23 of season 4 in 2023.

What happens when religion is used to divide rather than unite?  In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh talks with comedian, actor, and political commentator John Fugelsang about his book “Separation of Church and Hate”. John shares how his progressive Catholic upbringing shaped his voice as a comedian and commentator and explores how fundamentalist movements have often twisted Christianity for power, far from the teachings of Jesus. From historical examples to modern politics, he shows how faith can be weaponized and how true Christ-followers stand up for justice and compassion. This episode also dives into navigating polarized opinions and understanding the real message of faith to think critically and lead with integrity. In this episode, Darius and John will discuss: (00:00) Introduction and Background of John Fugelsang (02:52) Exploring the Separation of Church and Hate (05:44) The Evolution of Christianity and Political Influence (08:20) Debating Religious Beliefs and the Role of AI (11:10) The Impact of Media on Religious Narratives (13:57) The Importance of Love and Unity in Leadership (16:53) The Growing Spiritual Movement and Its Implications (19:34) The Role of Humor and Comedy in Addressing Serious Issues (22:33) Final Thoughts and the Path Forward John Fugelsang is an American actor, comedian, writer, television host, and political commentator known for his sharp wit and outspoken views on politics, religion, and culture.

John talks about Trump's lust for seizing control of Greenland and how that is playing out on the world stage. Trump spoke at the Davos Economic Forum in Switzerland, receiving a wall of sharp words and condemnations for American foreign and economic policy toward Europe. He also discusses anti-ICE protestors disrupting a sermon at Cities Church in ST. Paul Minnesota where their pastor moonlights as an ICE Director in their local field office. Then, he interviews Larry Cohen who is the Executive Director and Co-founder of Point Source Youth, a national organization working to prevent and end youth homelessness in the U.S. through advocacy, research, and support of scalable interventions like direct cash transfers and targeted housing assistance. And, Erika Hartman, who is Chief Executive Officer at Safe Place for Youth, which provides over 1,200+ young people with critical life-saving services yearly including daily meals, substance abuse counseling, mental health services, and access to housing.

Are lines between church and state blurring even further in today's social, cultural, and political climate? Mormonish Podcast is joined by Dan Hardy, Co President of the Freedom From Religion Foundation and Douglas Hendricks, President of the SLC Chapter of the FFRF, to discuss the topic of church v. state and all the nuance in between. According to the Freedom From Religion Foundation, the history of Western civilization shows us that most social and moral progress has been brought about by persons free from religion. In modern times the first to speak out for prison reform, for humane treatment of the mentally ill, for abolition of capital punishment, for women's right to vote, for death with dignity for the terminally ill, and for the right to choose contraception, sterilization and abortion have been freethinkers, just as they were the first to call for an end to slavery. The Foundation works as an umbrella for those who are free from religion and are committed to the cherished principle of separation of state and church.

Actor and meditation teacher Jeff Kober joins Medium Curious for a wide-ranging, funny, and helpful conversation about the mystery: why trying to force “concrete truth” can make our world smaller and more painful—and how learning to live in the question can reopen hope, possibility, and compassion. Jeff shares his origin story as a “reluctant meditator,” describing the inner hell of obsessive thoughts, the surprise of discovering he's not his mind, and why spiritual practice isn't about escaping life—it's about imbuing each moment with consciousness, including grief, fear, anger, shame, and joy. Along the way - Sarah, Jane, and Jeff explore ego, “knowers,” skepticism and mediumship, creativity as a spiritual path (acting, directing, orchestral music), and what it means to be an example of love without pretending you've “got it.” The “concrete truth” trap: When someone's certainty becomes unassailable, real conversation ends—and so does growth. Live in the question: Not having the answers isn't failure; it can be the practice. Meditation creates space: Jeff describes the shift from “my thoughts are me” to “my thoughts are over there.” Ego wants safety now: Separation fuels fear and control; remembering oneness invites compassion. How to deal with “knowers”: Stay supple—and “be the bullfighter, not the cape.” Art is a spiritual training ground: Acting, directing, and playing music all rehearse presence, collaboration, vulnerability, and truth. Skepticism can be healthy: Jeff stays open to spirit and meaning without forcing the “how.” The point isn't only “good vibes”: Consciousness wants the full human experience—joy and the honest depths of sadness, shame, anger, and grief. You're not ruined: At your center is something “pure, whole, and complete,” untouched by what happened to you—or what you've done. Jeff Kober “We're meant to live in the question.” “The universe itself is infinitely loving and kind.” “Consciousness can only embody by forgetting its oneness with itself.” “From individuality, we are solely and wholly at the mercy of the ego.” “Can I continue to expand my consciousness enough to contain even these seeming opposite realities?” Jeff Kober's Website Jeff Kober Instagram Join us on Substack for The Afterlife—bonus clips after the “mic is off” (wink).

 We are living in a world that feels increasingly divided. Politics, race, gender, religion, identity — lines are being drawn everywhere, and we're told we have to choose sides. What's harder to admit is that the same separation is happening inside spiritual and conscious communities. People focused on being right. Making others wrong. Using spirituality to divide instead of unite. In this episode, we talk about spiritual unity — not as a concept, but as a daily practice. Unity doesn't mean agreement. It doesn't mean bypassing truth or avoiding hard conversations. It means choosing love without needing superiority. If we want real change in the world, it starts with how we listen, how we speak, and how willing we are to see the humanity in one another — especially when it's uncomfortable. This conversation is an invitation to pause, soften, and remember: Love is not passive. Unity is not weak. And being right has never healed the world. Hey! Thanks for listening!

Separation doesn't only hit in the big moments. Often, it shows up quietly in the small, ordinary parts of the day. In this episode, we talk about the weird little moments that tend to catch women off guard during an unwanted separation or divorce, the subtle shifts, the unexpected waves, and the everyday experiences that suddenly feel different. If you've been feeling unsettled by moments that don't seem to make sense, this conversation is here to remind you that you're not alone, and nothing about this experience is strange or wrong. - - - - - - - - - - - - Want that chapter checklist just Click Here!

Dave and Bethlie continue their series on overcoming with this part 2 of Overcoming Anger. How do you overcome anger in your marriage and family Start with confession Eph 4:30. Confess it as sin Control your anger - better - confess your anger Jesus got angry - you aren't Jesus Meditate on Scripture Proverbs 15:1-3 A soft/gentle answer turns away wrath Recognize that you are most vulnerable to sin when you are sinned against the tongue of the wise uses knowledge aright Recognize that your words evidence your heart the eyes of the Lord are in every place beholding the evil and the good Recognize that God is always present and always holding us accountable  Proverbs 17:19 Ecclesiastes 9:17 Start with some growth/spiritual steps If you have an anger issue this is the answer You have to grow Confess it as sin Pray about it every day Ask forgiveness Secure accountability Respond immediately to any failure You have to sow As you sow the right seeds, you will begin to see fruit You have to love and honor Your wife matters Your husband matters If you are married to someone with an anger problem, this is the answer. You have to grow too In order to confront your spouses anger, you have to put your spiritual house in order essential to have the strength, courage, perspective, and ability to help your spouse Pray about how to respond in a right way Practice how to respond in a right way That was a very angry way to say that, can you say it differently so I don't feel so defensive You have to allow time for fruit Anger is usually a learned behavior that is habitual When you respond to your spouse with gentleness and a request for a different response, allow your spouse to process that It makes them aware It give the Spirit time to work Separate as a last resort. I can't (with a clear conscience) believe that anger is a grounds for divorce Separation however, may be needed if a man's anger is making him abusive

Many people followed Jesus. Not all of them were truly His disciples.In this episode, Pastor Jeff Cranston and Tiffany Coker walk through John chapter 6 to examine one of the most challenging truths of the Christian life: discipleship is more than separation from sin. It requires active devotion to Christ.As many followers walked away from Jesus when His teaching became difficult, Scripture reveals three distinct types of disciples: nominal disciples, real disciples, and false disciples. This conversation explores how each group responds to Jesus, why separation without devotion can be spiritually dangerous, and how believers today can honestly examine their own hearts.What We Discussed02:26 Why Biblical Separation Is MisunderstoodBiblical separation is not about isolation or moral superiority. Scripture calls believers to holiness through repentance and obedience, not excuse or compromise, as seen in 1 Peter 1:15–16 and Romans 6.05:22 Separation from Personal SinChristians are called to deal honestly with their own sin through repentance, confession, and intentional turning away, rather than minimizing or justifying sinful patterns.08:20 Why Small Sins Are Spiritually DangerousHidden or “small” sins do not remain contained. Like poison in a well, personal sin affects prayer, spiritual sensitivity, relationships, and a believer's witness.09:54 Separation from Unrepentant BelieversScripture teaches that fellowship should be withheld from those who profess Christ yet persist in unrepentant sin, both to protect the church and to call the individual to repentance, as outlined in 1 Corinthians 5:11.12:41 Why the Church Must Take Sin SeriouslyUnaddressed sin spreads within the church like yeast through dough 1 Corinthians 5:6.13:42 Separation from False TeachersBelievers are commanded to test teaching against Scripture and separate from those who distort the gospel or deny its truth, following the warning of 1 John 4:1.18:31 Separation from the World SystemScripture calls believers to resist the values and priorities of the world that oppose God, choosing spiritual transformation over conformity, as taught in 1 John 2:15 and Romans 12:2.19:43 Set Apart, Not IsolatedBiblical separation doesn't mean withdrawing from people. It means living with distinct loves, loyalties, and standards while remaining engaged, compassionate, and Christlike.“Discipleship is not about perfection. It is about bringing every area of life under the Lordship of Christ.”  – Pastor Jeff CranstonWe love your feedback! If you enjoyed this episode, leave us a review.
