Banned In Sparta”- Collaborative Album with Classical Greek Poets and Modern Folk Singers Helmed by Robin BatteauRobin Batteau's “Banned in Sparta” is a collaborative album of songs based on poems by Classical Greek poets and recorded by a number of friends Tom Paxton, Eric Andersen, Livingston and Kate Taylor, Matt Nakoa, Robin Lane, 2-time Tony winning actor James Naughton and his gifted children Keira and Greg, plus Carolyn Hester. Robin was inspired by an Ancient Greek History class he took when he returned to Harvard during the Pandemic to finish a degree he started in the 1960s. Robin earned the World Record of taking a 50-year break (between 1970 to 2021) to return to Harvard and finish his degree in 2022. “Banned In Sparta” focuses almost entirely on poets from Ancient Greece between 700 and 400 BC. One poet, Gaius Valerius Catullus (84 – 54 BC), as smitten with the ghost of Sappho as Robin or Alcaeus, is from Rome during Julius Caesar's reign, for whom Eric Andersen performs “Cross (of Gold),” an ode to interlaced and conflicted feelings, “Odi et Amo"— I hate and I love.The title “Banned in Sparta” finds its name from Archilochus, the Bob Dylan of the 7th century B.C., a warrior-poet so irreverent he was “Banned in Sparta.” James Naughton sings the song “Archilochus Re-Deemed (I Am a Servant of the Lord God of War).” Kate Taylor performs “Telesilla's On the Wall,” from the female poet Telesilla, who led her fellow women warriors to victory against those same renowned Spartans. “The Greek Lyric poets performed live, and were the stars of their day,” says Robin. “They were singer/songwriters, they played the lyre (hence "Lyric") and danced around the stage like Tom Paxton and Taylor Swift.”Robin, who studied Ancient Greece and Integrative Biology at Harvard, found that most of what was left of the poems were fragments and myth, “So I mosaic-ed songs to reflect their expressions and intentions— who they were, and are to me.” A range of female poets contributed to the lyrical history of Greece including Corrina, whose “In Her Loving Arms” is sung by Carolyn Hester, and Praxilla's “The Most Beautiful Thing in the World,” a hymn to Adonis, sung by Keira Naughton. Sappho's writing inspires “Terra Cotta Heart,” sung by Robin Lane. Livingston Taylor sings “My Sappho, Sweetly Smiling” from the smitten neighbor and rival Alcaeus. The fun and frolicking “Shake your Hair (You Thracian Filly),” sung by Tom Paxton. Pianist and folk singer Matt Nakoa offers a Bruce Hornsby-like treatment for Simonides of Ceos's “Theatre of Memory (Man of Gold).” Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.
Is your leadership built on a throne or a cross? In a culture that fluctuates between toxic dominance and total passivity, the biblical concept of "Headship" is often the most misunderstood part of marriage. In this episode, Nathan and Andrea Warnock dismantle the "Boss" mentality—where authority is used for control—and reveal the beauty of the "Biblical Head." Being a husband is about being three things - a Servant, a Pursuer, and a Rock. We're untangling the lies that have led many men to rule their homes with a gavel rather than serving them with a basin. Join us as we discuss the "Flourishing Metric" and how a husband's sacrifice creates the safest, most vibrant environment for his wife and family to thrive. Marriage By Design is a channel dedicated to digging into God's design for marriage and family - as well as talking practically live that out in our marriages and families.

Most leaders will tell you they hate bragging — and they mean it. But somewhere between "I don't want to be that person" and never talking about what you've done, a lot of genuinely talented people quietly disappear from the conversations that shape their careers. Josh opens with a real scenario — joining a new company and being asked to introduce himself at an all-hands — and the tension of threading that needle. Bob admits this is his kryptonite. As a self-described introvert and chronic underseller, he's spent years over-correcting away from self-promotion because it feels slimy. The episode digs into the nuance between "I" stories and "we" stories, and why the most effective communicators learn to weave both together naturally.The harder truth surfaces when Bob connects this to the Capital One Agile layoffs — 1,100+ roles eliminated, not because the work wasn't valuable, but because no one made the case for it. Servant leadership culture convinced an entire profession that talking about results was someone else's job. It wasn't. Josh drives it home with Nick Saban's retirement: Alabama is still good, but they're not the same, because the person whose presence elevated everyone around them is gone. That's you. You are the face of your franchise, whether you're comfortable with it or not. Stop underselling. Start telling.

This powerful exploration of Isaiah 53 invites us into what scholars have called the golden passage of the Old Testament, the fifth gospel, written 700 years before the cross yet describing Christ's suffering with astonishing precision. We discover that the entire passage calls us to be astonished, to behold with wonder a Servant who would act wisely and be highly exalted, yet whose appearance would be marred beyond recognition. The central paradox confronts us immediately: God's powerful arm of deliverance doesn't come to smash enemies but gets smashed itself. From birth to death, Jesus defied expectations. He grew up like a tender shoot from dry ground, nothing impressive about his appearance, easily dismissed like a sucker growing beside a tree that we'd cut off without thought. Yet this rejection wasn't accidental but intentional. Christ became what we truly are, taking on the ugliness of our sin-marred image, that we might become what he is. The image of God in us has been distorted beyond recognition through our hatred, laziness, and base desires, yet God loved us too much to simply cut us off. Instead, he sent his Son to be rejected for us, to die the gruesome death we deserved, accomplishing the great exchange where our beastliness becomes his and his beauty becomes ours. This Lenten season challenges us to worship this astonishing Savior, to witness to the Beauty and the Beast story of our own redemption, and to walk in the humble way of Christ who emptied himself for our sake.

The teaching strongly warns that any message which adds to or alters the biblical gospel is a false gospel and places both teachers and hearers under God's curse, grounding this warning in Galatians 1:8–9, where even angels are condemned for preaching “another gospel.” The speaker contrasts true salvation by grace through faith with systems that add legalism, sacraments, works, nationalism without evangelism, or cultural accommodation, repeatedly returning to the biblical pattern of repentance and faith seen in the first evangelistic sermon in Acts 2:37–40, where Peter commands people to repent and be saved from a corrupt generation. He affirms God's prophetic purposes for Israel while insisting the gospel must never be withheld, referencing Jesus' words about Jerusalem in Luke 21:24, the necessity of Israel's restoration in Zechariah 12, and the Messiah revealed in Isaiah 40 as the prelude to the suffering Servant of Isaiah 52–53. Salvation is presented as universally offered yet personally received, supported by 1 Timothy 2:4 and God's stated desire that the wicked turn and live in Ezekiel 18:23, while rejecting distortions that deny substitutionary atonement or repentance. The message concludes by reaffirming that grace is free but costly, that Christ's work was finished at the cross, and that the church must preach repentance, substitutionary atonement, and new life without dilution or compromise, remaining faithful to the apostolic gospel alone.

What does it truly mean to lead like Jesus? In a culture that celebrates power, position, and personal success, the Bible teaches something radically different. According to Scripture, true leadership begins with serving. Jesus Himself modeled this when He said in Mark 10:45, “The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve.” The greatest leader who ever lived chose the posture of a servant — and He calls His followers to do the same. In this episode of Confident Christian Influence, we explore the biblical principle of serving and why servant leadership is essential for Christian leaders who want to make an eternal impact. If you feel called to lead — whether in your workplace, business, ministry, community, or home — this conversation will challenge you to rethink how leadership works in God's Kingdom. You'll discover how serving others is not weakness but one of the most powerful ways to influence people and reflect the heart of Christ. In This Episode You'll Learn • Why servant leadership is the foundation of biblical leadership • How Jesus redefined greatness in God's Kingdom • Why humility is essential for Christian leaders • How your leadership role is actually a form of ministry and stewardship • Practical ways to serve others and create lasting Kingdom impact 5 Biblical Principles of Servant Leadership 1. Serving flows from the Lordship of Christ When Jesus is truly Lord of our lives, our leadership becomes about serving others rather than promoting ourselves. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4:5 2. Jesus redefined greatness The world measures greatness by power, but Jesus taught that the greatest leaders are those who serve. Scripture: Matthew 20:26 3. Servant leadership requires humility Christian leaders are called to put aside selfish ambition and value others above themselves. Scripture: Philippians 2:3–7 4. Serving is the heart of ministry Every believer is called to use their gifts to serve others and reflect Christ through their leadership. Scripture: 1 Peter 4:10 5. Serving creates eternal impact When we serve others faithfully, we are ultimately serving Christ and advancing God's Kingdom. Scripture: Colossians 3:23–24 Key Scriptures Mentioned Mark 10:45 Matthew 20:26 John 13:3–5 Philippians 2:3–7 1 Peter 4:10 Colossians 3:23–24 2 Corinthians 4:5 Invitation: If you are a Christian woman who wants to lead with clarity, confidence, and biblical alignment, I invite you to sign up for the Lead Like Jesus Workshop, a 3 session experience designed to help women lead intentionally and stay rooted in God's plan.

Hello to you listening in Grants Pass, Oregon! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. Once upon a time there was a young girl who lived with her wicked stepmother and wicked stepsister. One day the girl went to the well to fetch water. While there an old crone asked her for a drink of the cold water she was drawing up from the well. The girl gave her a drink and as a reward for her kindness the crone said, “Each time you speak pearls, jewels and roses will fall from your lips.” Seeing this magic the wicked stepmother sent the wicked stepsister to the well to claim her own reward. At the well a beautiful princess asks for water; but the wicked stepsister says, “Draw your own water! I'm not your servant.” “Ah,” said the princess, “That is unfortunate. From this day forward scorpions, lizards and toads will fall from your lips when you speak.” Click HERE to learn more Story Prompt: What if we could see our words even before we spoke them?

In 2 Corinthians 3:7–18, the Apostle Paul contrasts the old covenant with the new covenant fulfilled in Jesus Christ. While the old covenant revealed God's law and exposed our insufficiency, the new covenant brings righteousness, freedom, and transformation through the Holy Spirit. Because of Christ's finished work, believers now approach God with confidence, share the gospel boldly, and are continually transformed from one degree of glory to another.

Ben Bradord • Psalm 119:169–119:176
What do you do when you believe God's promises but still feel forgotten? In the second Servant Song, Isaiah reveals a salvation so vast it reaches the ends of the earth. Yet in the middle of that promise, God's people cry out, “The Lord has forgotten me.” Rather than rebuking their doubt, God responds with tenderness — likening His love to that of a nursing mother and then going even further: “I have engraved you on the palms of my hands.” In song two of The Servant Songs, we see how Jesus fulfills Isaiah's vision — not only as the Servant who brings salvation to the nations, but as the Savior who bears our names in wounded hands. When faith feels thin and pain feels personal, the gospel reminds us: we are not forgotten — we are held.

Isaiah 52–53 reminds us that Jesus is not distant from our pain. He is familiar with suffering and meets us in the places where life hurts and things feel broken. Even in seasons of betrayal and hardship, God is at work, transforming what was meant for harm into something good from the inside out.

From never-ending list of tasks and duties to possibly being mistreated, domestic service in the Victorian era sounds like absolute hell. And yet, for many women, it was a dream job.

In this episode of Evolving Your Workplace, host Carol Schultz sits down with Ed Wolff, CEO of Aerwave, to unpack the reality of servant leadership at the executive level — and why it is far heavier than most people assume.Ed shares how leading with integrity, empathy, and accountability has shaped his career, and why stepping into the CEO role brought a new level of pressure. Responsible for nearly 70 employees, shareholders, lenders, and board members, he explains what it means to serve multiple constituencies while still driving performance and growth.The conversation explores the difference between authentic leadership and performative leadership. Ed breaks down why self-awareness is non-negotiable, why people follow leaders (not companies), and what happens when high performers are promoted into management without the right support systems. He also explains why he refuses to “throw people into the lion's den” without tools, coaching, and structured checkpoints.Carol and Ed dive into the risks of bringing trusted team members with you to a new organization, the reality of startup probability and failure rates, and the hard truth that leadership cannot rely on blind loyalty. Servant leadership requires radical candor, resilience, and the ability to pace yourself under constant pressure.Ed also reflects candidly on the personal cost of leadership — taking on too much, rarely saying no, and learning the importance of self-care and balance. He shares how Aerwave reduced its sales cycle from 360 days to 270 days through tighter qualification and objection handling, and why building culture remains his core focus as CEO.The message is clear: servant leadership is not soft. It demands strength, accountability, and intentional investment in people.Key topics covered:What servant leadership truly means at the CEO levelWhy self-awareness determines leadership longevityThe risk and responsibility of bringing former team members with youWhy promoting star performers without support often failsBuilding capability instead of dependency in management teamsServing shareholders, boards, employees, and lenders simultaneouslyReducing long enterprise sales cycles through better qualificationThe importance of executive self-care and sustainable pacingInvesting intentionally in professional growth at every stageConnect With Host Carol SchultzFind more information about our host Carol Schultz and her company at Vertical Elevation, LinkedIn, and Instagram.Want to be our next guest expert?

In this thoughtful and practical conversation, Bart sits down with Matt Marcial, CEO of the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA), to explore leadership, professional growth, and the power of listening. Matt shares his journey from working the front desk in hospitality to leading one of the world's largest professional organizations for communicators. Along the way, he reflects on lessons learned from both great and difficult leaders, the importance of business acumen, and why servant leadership remains the most effective leadership model. Matt explains how curiosity, discipline, and a commitment to serving others shaped his career and why the best leaders don't blame the past; they take ownership of the future.Major Takeaways / LearningsLeadership starts with listening. The ability to truly hear stakeholders is one of the most powerful leadership skills.Career growth comes from curiosity.

God's servants do not serve themselves, but rather Him. They are not called to fame or fortune, but to do their Master's will.
I had the flu and Streamyard defaulted to my computer microphone, so I apologize for my voice! In this episode I discuss Paul's comments in Ephesians 1:15-23, particularly 1:20-22, that Jesus by virtue of his resurrection, ascension, and enthronement currently rules over all authorities and that the church shares in his cosmic victory. We discuss the major themes of Ephesians, particularly Christ and the church, and how Paul believes that those who have received the Spirit through faith in Israel's Messiah are now members of God's eschatological family. Jesus has already been installed as the cosmic king, and the list of powers over which Jesus is “far above” includes both earthy political rulers and malevolent spiritual powers. I look at two Greek terms Paul uses in Ephesians 1:21, arche and exousia, and show how their usage in other passages, notably 1 Corinthians 2:6-8 and Romans 13:1-3 clearly denote human political authorities. I conclude with some final thoughts about how the church must take Jesus's enthronement over all powers seriously.
