You've Got One Job: Stay Connected to Jesus There are a thousand things competing for your attention every day. Your career. Your marriage. Your kids. Your health. Your finances. Your goals. Your phone. Even your ministry. But according to Jesus, there's one thing you absolutely cannot neglect: Your connection with him. In John 15, Jesus gives one of the simplest and most powerful pictures of the Christian life: "I am the vine; you are the branches." In this episode of the Rob Skinner Podcast, Rob explores why successful people can be especially vulnerable to spiritual self-reliance, why God sometimes prunes the people he loves, and how someone can look spiritually alive on the outside while slowly drying up inside. And it all comes down to one simple phrase: You've got one job: remain. Are You Plugged In? Rob rents out his former home in Tucson, Arizona. Every so often, a guest sends him a message: "The hot tub isn't working." "The jets won't turn on." "It's not getting hot." "We've pushed every button." Rob usually responds with one question: "Is it plugged in?" A few minutes of silence. Then: "Never mind." Nothing was wrong with the hot tub. Nothing was wrong with the heater. Nothing was wrong with the jets. It simply wasn't connected to its source of power. And that can describe our spiritual lives. We push buttons. We try harder. Work more. Make more money. Improve our marriages. Fix our kids. Grow our ministries. Accomplish another goal. But Jesus asks a more fundamental question: Are you connected to me? You can be incredibly busy and spiritually disconnected. You can even be busy doing things for Jesus while becoming disconnected from Jesus. 1. Let the Gardener Prune You Jesus says: "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener." — John 15:1 Then he says something surprising: Every branch that bears fruit, God prunes so that it can become even more fruitful. God prunes fruitful people. We sometimes assume that if we're following God, everything should start going our way. Jesus says otherwise. Sometimes following God means getting cut. A door closes. A relationship doesn't work out. Something you desperately wanted doesn't happen. God's Word exposes pride, selfishness, greed, impurity or your need for control. But there's a huge difference between destruction and pruning. Destruction has no future in mind. Pruning is all about the future. Instead of immediately asking, "What's gone wrong?" try asking: "God, what are you trying to cut out of me?" And: "What are you trying to grow in me?" Don't waste your pruning. Let the Gardener work. 2. You've Got One Job: Remain This is the heart of John 15. Jesus repeatedly says: Remain. Stay connected. Stay close. Make your home in me. Don't drift away. A branch doesn't wake up thinking: "How am I going to manufacture grapes today?" It doesn't hustle. It doesn't compare itself with the branch next to it. It doesn't create a five-step productivity plan. It remains connected to the vine. Life flows from the vine into the branch. Eventually, fruit appears. Sometimes we make Christianity far more complicated than Jesus did: Try harder. Do more. Be better. Achieve more. Jesus says: Remain in me. Christianity isn't merely believing facts about Jesus. It's Christ living in you and through you. It's dependence. Relationship. Connection. You Can Look Alive While Drying Up Inside Here's the sobering part. When you cut a branch off a tree, it doesn't immediately look dead. For a while, the leaves remain green. Put it beside a connected branch and you may not even see a difference. But something fundamental has already happened. It has been disconnected from its source of life. The same thing can happen spiritually. You can still: Go to church. Sing the songs. Know your Bible. Lead a small group. Preach sermons. Have decades of Christian experience. You can look green on the outside while slowly drying up inside. Jesus isn't asking: "Were you connected to me once?" He's asking: "Are you remaining in me now?" Don't live off your baptism. Don't live off what you did ten years ago. Don't live off last year's faith. Ask: How is my relationship with Jesus today? 3. Connected People Bear Fruit Jesus says: "If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit." Notice the order. Jesus doesn't say: "Produce enough fruit, then I'll accept you." He says: Remain—and fruit will come. Connection comes before production. Roots come before fruit. What does that fruit look like? Changed character. Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Repentance. Real connection produces real change. Obedience. Jesus changes how we handle our marriages, money, time, sexuality, forgiveness, service and gifts. And finally: Spiritual impact. Fruit reproduces. Spiritually fruitful people help other people find Jesus. We share our faith. Love people. Serve. Study the Bible with people. Help people become disciples. Multiply disciples, leaders and churches. And ultimately, the fruit points back to the vine. It isn't: "Look how impressive I am." It's: "Look what God can do." So, Are You Plugged In? Your marriage matters. Your family matters. Your career matters. Your finances matter. Your health matters. Your ministry matters. Your goals matter. But there's one thing you cannot neglect: Your connection with Jesus. So ask yourself: Am I plugged in? Remember the three lessons of John 15: 1. Let the Gardener prune you. 2. You've got one job: remain. 3. Connected people bear fruit. When you're successful—remain. When you're struggling—remain. When God is pruning you—remain. When life gets busy—remain. When you're discouraged—remain. When everything is going wonderfully—remain. The branch has one job. Remain. And Jesus promises: "If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit." Make this life count.

What if one of the simplest tools for helping your child connect, communicate, and regulate is already in your voice? In this episode, I talk with music therapist, musician, author, and mom Vered Benhorin, about how everyday singing can support connection, language development, transitions, and co-regulation with babies and toddlers. We explore why repetition, rhythm, movement, and that naturally sing-songy way we talk to babies can be so powerful for early learning. Vered also shares simple ways parents, caregivers, and educators can create their own songs for everything from diaper changes and bedtime to calming big feelings. Most importantly, we talk about why you don't need to be a great singer—or even consider yourself musical—to use music as a joyful way to connect with the little humans in your life.  Vered Benhorin, LCAT, is a board-certified music therapist, psychotherapist, parenting author, recording artist, and family connection expert whose work brings together attachment theory, music, mindfulness, and play. She studied music therapy and clinical psychology and has spent nearly two decades helping parents strengthen connection with their babies and young children through Baby in Tune.

This is a live talk given as the keynote speech at the Welsh Confest "Plants People Culture" at Pandy Farm in North Wales, just a few days ago. In this presentation, Stephanie Hazel situates knowledge of plants and herbalism within the broader context of cultural heritage, belonging, sovereignty and ecological repair.This episode explores these themes using concrete examples of wild local plants, particularly Nettle, Dandelion and Apple. Main pointsPlant knowledge is part of humanity's shared cultural heritage - as such, herbalism belongs to everyone.Plants' roles in ecosystems can offer clues to their relationship with human health - our bodies are mirrors of landscapes.Plants heal humans because humans are part of the ecosystem too.Knowing local medicinal plants (even just a few!) can strengthen connection to place, land and community.Herbalism and Western medicine can complement one another.Relationship to land, intuition, careful observation, traditional knowledge and rational analysis all must be woven together into a larger tapestry of wisdom.

Daily Anglican Prayer – Thursday Morning – 1st October 2026 Readings NRSVUE: Psalm 74; Ezra 2.64-3.8; Colossians 2.1-7. Led by Felicity Scott, an Anglican prayer minister in Queensland, Australia. The full prayer transcript is available by going to this episode on the Podcast website. https://dailyprayeranglicanprayerbookforaustralia.podbean.com Welcome to Thursday Morning prayer. We proclaim the Good News of our Lord Jesus Christ: GOD in his infinite mercy, forgives all sins, and through our baptism in the name of our Saviour, Jesus Christ, we are given a rebirth into new life, free from the burden of all sin. ALLELUIA With faithfulness we respond to the good news: We acknowledge Christ as our Saviour and accept with gratitude, that we are forgiven for all wrong doings, past and present. To honour the gift of forgiveness, we release our burden of guilt and rise up to live in the glory of God forever more. Blessed be God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Blessed be God forever. Let us Pray.     1 This is the message we have heard from Christ: That God is light, in whom there is no darkness at all.   Glory to God; Father, Son and Holy Spirit:  as in the beginning, so now, and for ever. Amen.    2 The Opening Canticle, A Song of God's Grace Go up to a high mountain Herald of good tidings to Zion: Lift up your voice with strength, Herald of good tidings to Jerusalem. Lift up your voice, fear not: Say to the cities of Judah, ‘Behold your God!' See the Lord God coming with power: Coming to rule with his mighty arm. He brings his reward for the people of God: the recompense for those who are saved. God will feed his flock like a shepherd: And gather the lambs in his arms; He will hold them to his breast: And gently lead those that are with young. Isaiah 40.9-11   3 The Opening Prayer The night has passed, and the day lies open before us;  let us pray with one heart and mind.    Silence may be kept. As we rejoice in the gift of this new day,  so may the light of your presence, O God,  set our hearts with love for you;  now and for ever.  Amen.   4 The Psalms as appointed. A pause is observed after each. Psalm 74     5 At the end of the (last) pause there may follow Almighty God, who wonderfully created us in your own image and yet more wonderfully restored us in your son Jesus Christ: grant that as he came to share our human nature so we may be partakers in his divine glory; who is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God now and forever.  Amen.   6 One or two Readings from the Bible as appointed.   1st Reading Ezra 2.64-3.8 64 The whole assembly together was forty-two thousand three hundred sixty, 65besides their male and female servants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty-seven, and they had two hundred male and female singers. 66They had seven hundred thirty-six horses, two hundred forty-five mules, 67four hundred thirty-five camels, and six thousand seven hundred twenty donkeys. 68As soon as they came to the house of the LORD in Jerusalem, some of the heads of families made freewill offerings for the house of God, to erect it on its site. 69According to their resources they gave to the building fund, sixty-one thousand darics of gold, five thousand minas of silver, and one hundred priestly robes. 70The priests, the Levites, and some of the people, as well as the singers, the gatekeepers, and the temple servants, lived in their towns and all Israel in their towns.   1 When the seventh month came and the Israelites were in their towns, the people gathered together as one in Jerusalem. 2Then Jeshua son of Jozadak with his fellow priests and Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel with his kin set out to build the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings on it, as prescribed in the law of Moses the man of God. 3They set up the altar on its foundation because they were in dread of the people of the lands, and they offered burnt offerings upon it to the LORD, morning and evening. 4And they kept the Festival of Booths, as prescribed, and offered the daily burnt offerings by number according to the ordinance, as required for each day, 5and after that the regular burnt offerings, the offerings at the new moon and at all the sacred festivals of the LORD, and the offerings of everyone who made a freewill offering to the LORD. 6From the first day of the seventh month they began to offer burnt offerings to the LORD. But the foundation of the temple of the LORD was not yet laid. 7So they gave money to the masons and the carpenters, and food, drink, and oil to the Sidonians and the Tyrians to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea, to Joppa, according to the grant that they had from King Cyrus of Persia. Foundation Laid for the Temple 8 In the second year after their arrival at the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and Jeshua son of Jozadak made a beginning, together with the rest of their people, the priests and the Levites and all who had come to Jerusalem from the captivity. They appointed the Levites from twenty years old and up to have the oversight of the work on the house of the LORD.   Hear the word of the LORD. Thanks be to God.   2nd Reading The letter of Paul to the Colossians chapter 2.1-7 1For I want you to know how greatly I strive for you and for those in Laodicea and for all who have not seen me face to face. 2I want their hearts to be encouraged and united in love, so that they may have all the riches of assured understanding and have the knowledge of God's mystery, that is, Christ, 3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. 4 I am saying this so that no one may deceive you with plausible arguments. 5 For though I am absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit, and I rejoice to see your orderly conduct and the firmness of your faith in Christ. Fullness of Life in Christ 6 As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, continue to walk in him, 7 rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.   Hear the message of Christ. Thanks be to God.     7 The Canticle, In the beginning was the word: and the word was with God, and the word was god: he was in the beginning with god. all things were made through him: and without him, was not anything made that was made. In him was life: And the life was the light of all the people. The light shines in the darkness: And the darkness has not overcome it. He was in the world: And the world was made through him yet the world knew him not. He came to his own home: and his own people received him not. But to all who received him who believed on his name: He has given power to become children of God; who were born not of blood nor of the will of the flesh: nor of the will of a man but of God. And the Word became flesh And dwelt among us full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory: glory as of the only son from the father and from his fullness have we all received: And grace upon grace.   8 The belief and principle is said I believe in God, creator of heaven and earth, whose love and merciful forgiveness endures everlasting. I believe in Christ the saviour, whose example of love and compassion, taught us a restored way to live, in collaborative unity with all people. I believe in the Holy Spirit, whose divine guidance brings us together to be one with the Holy Trinity. Amen   9 The Prayers Lord have mercy.  Christ have mercy.  God have mercy.   10 The Lord's Prayer Our Father in heaven,  hallowed be your name,  your kingdom come,  your will be done,  on earth as in heaven.  Give us today our daily bread.  Forgive us our sins  as we forgive those who sin against us.  Save us from the time of trial  and deliver us from evil.  For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours  now and for ever. Amen.      Prayer of the Week following the EIGHTEENTH Sunday after Pentecost O God, You declare your almighty power Chiefly in showing mercy and pity Mercifully grant us such a measure of your grace That running in the way of your commandments We may obtain your gracious promises And be made partakers of your heavenly treasure Through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Psalm 138 reminds us of the presence of the angels to help us glorify God by our words and actions. (Lectionary #647) September 29, 2026 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

Brian shares the emotional moment of pitcher Justin Verlander's final game with the Detroit Tigers, when his daughter ran onto the field as he was pulled from the mound, reflecting on how a parent's priorities shift from personal ambition to family. He digs into a Gospel Coalition piece on "looks maxing," a toxic online trend among young men pursuing extreme body-altering beauty standards, calling the church to fill the discipleship gap with authentic mentorship. Brian discusses Tim Challies's explanation for why his church avoids singing songs associated with Bethel, Hillsong, and Elevation over theological and financial concerns tied to those ministries. He shares a fascinating trend piece on "sleep tourism" — people paying thousands for luxury hotel sleep retreats — arguing it's essentially commercialized Sabbath rest that Scripture offers for free, and a striking sociological finding that married couples who regularly attend church are the only demographic that has avoided the broader cultural "sex recession." He closes reflecting on Romans 8:28 and Ephesians 3:20, encouraging listeners to trust God's ability to work good even through present suffering.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Everyone sings, too. Their sound includes elements of jazz as well, and the result is mesmerizing. Beneath the Spreading Tree by Sairie favorite track The Breeze on the Meadow Sairie is a psych folk sextet from Brighton, who've only released singles and EPs, until now. The dulcetly soaring female vocalist is at the fore most of the time, with a male vocalist joining in, and even being featured for a few tunes. Otherwise, autoharp, guitar, harmonium, bass, violin, cello, accordion, and percussion are the instruments, with the electric guitar in particular being a fine juxtaposition to the soprano female vocalist. Vale Of Tears by Andy Aquarius favorite track The Soft And Silent Pastures This thoughtful wyrd folk artist from Berlin returns with a full-length release. He's deeply inspired by nature and holy places, and these songs reflect his wanderings and ponderings. He plays all instruments, including Celtic harp, and provides vocals as well. This is a lovely addition to his catalogue, and is best heard from start to finish. Sing the World Awake by Baka Beyond favorite track Fair Molly (Mál Bhán Ní Chuilleanáin) Stalwart Afro-Celt musicians Baka Beyond, whose catalogue spans 30 years, are back after a 12-year recording drought. Instruments are guitars, bass, drums and percussion, violin, and various vocalists. From energetic to trance-inducing, there is something for everyone who loves this kind of music. Shaniko b/w The Valley The Shadow by Michael Trew I'm always eager to hear what Michael Trew has come up with, and never disappointed. This is a true single format, with two pieces, both with his wonderfully evocative vocals at the fore, a bit of a retro alt/rock feel. Both are exceptionally moving, but I'm going with, “The Valley Of The Shadow.” SEVEN REALMS OF ATTAR by NIYAZ favorite track LOVE Niyaz is an amalgamation of Middle Eastern, world, and electronica, composed and performed by Azam Ali and Loga Ramin Torkian. Azam Ali provides voice, beats & programming, percussion and keyboards; Loga Ramin Torkian plays kamaan, guitar-viol, robab, lafta, kopuz, electric guitar, additional programming, and keyboards; and they are joined by Sinan Cem Eroglu on kopuz, kaval, and voice. The overall effect is cinematic and mesmerizing. Under Your Skin by Tyler Kamen Tyler Kamen has release this single, that's a bit more idiosyncratic (if that can be said), than his previous outings perhaps because it's a standalone piece. It is still outstanding psych/folk/rock, so never fear, with a forceful wash of guitars and vocals. Hopefully a new full-length release is in the works. Blanco White “So Certain (Something Reminds Me) 2026 (5:17) Single Utterly haunting single from Blanco White, with his quavery voice, chilling harmonies, and shimmery violin. Hoping for another full-length release here, too. La Pernette by The Thorn As expected, The Thorn deliver the goods with this latest single, a traditional French ballad. Lysergically tinged heavy guitars are the perfect foil to the crystal clear vocals of Naomi Randall. In Thin Air by Spell Songs favorite track Bells Fall Still Seven stellar musicians make up Spell Songs. On this recording, it's all about the birds, inspired by a book about them, their habitats, and their increasing vulnerability.

Daily Anglican Prayer – Wednesday Morning – 30th September 2026 Readings NRSVUE: Psalm 72; Ezra 1; Colossians 1.21-29. Led by Felicity Scott, an Anglican prayer minister in Queensland, Australia. The full prayer transcript is available by going to this episode on the Podcast website. https://dailyprayeranglicanprayerbookforaustralia.podbean.com Welcome to Wednesday Morning prayer. We proclaim the Good News of our Lord Jesus Christ: GOD in his infinite mercy, forgives all sins, and through our baptism in the name of our Saviour, Jesus Christ, we are given a rebirth into new life, free from the burden of all sin. ALLELUIA With faithfulness we respond to the good news: We acknowledge Christ our Saviour and accept with gratitude, that we are forgiven for all wrong doings, past and present. To honour the gift of forgiveness, we release our burden of guilt and rise up to live in the glory of God forever more. Blessed be God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Blessed be God forever. Let us Pray. 1 Rejoice always pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks; For this is the will of God in Christ Jesus.      Glory to God; Father, Son and Holy Spirit:  as in the beginning, so now, and for ever. Amen.    2 The Opening Canticle, A Song of God's Grace Blessed are you,  the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ: For you have blessed us in Christ Jesus with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places,  You chose us to be yours in Christ, before the foundation of the world: That we should be holy and blameless before you.  In love you destined us to be your children, through Jesus Christ: according to the purpose of your will,  to the praise of your glorious grace: which you freely bestowed on us in the Beloved. Ephesians 1.3-6   3 The Opening Prayer The night has passed and the day lies open before us;  let us pray with one heart and mind.   Silence may be kept. As we rejoice in the gift of this new day,  so may the light of your presence, O God,  set our hearts on fire with love for you;  now and for ever.  Amen.   4 The Psalms as appointed. A pause is observed after each.   Psalm reading… Psalm 72;     5 At the end of the (last) pause there may follow We consecrate this day to your service, O Lord; may all our thoughts, words, and actions be well-pleasing to you and serve the good of our brothers and sisters; through Jesus Christ, our Lord.  Amen.   6 One or two Readings from the Bible as appointed.   1st Reading EZRA 1 1 In the first year of King Cyrus of Persia, to fulfill the word of the LORD from the mouth of Jeremiah, the LORD stirred up the spirit of King Cyrus of Persia so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom and also in writing, saying: 2 “Thus says King Cyrus of Persia: The LORD, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, and he has charged me to build him a house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah. 3Let any of those among you who are of his people—may their God be with them!—go up to Jerusalem in Judah and rebuild the house of the LORD, the God of Israel; he is the God who is in Jerusalem. 4And let all survivors in whatever place they reside be assisted by the people of their place with silver and gold, with goods, and with livestock, besides freewill offerings for the house of God in Jerusalem.” 5 Then the heads of the families of Judah and Benjamin and the priests and the Levites—everyone whose spirit God had stirred—got ready to go up and rebuild the house of the LORD in Jerusalem. 6All their neighbors aided them with silver vessels, with gold, with goods, with livestock, and with valuable gifts, besides all that was freely offered. 7King Cyrus himself brought out the vessels of the house of the LORD that Nebuchadnezzar had carried away from Jerusalem and placed in the house of his gods. 8 King Cyrus of Persia had them released into the charge of Mithredath the treasurer, who counted them out to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah. 9And this was the inventory: gold basins, thirty; silver basins, one thousand; knives, twenty-nine; 10 gold bowls, thirty; other silver bowls, four hundred ten; other vessels, one thousand; 11 the total of the gold and silver vessels was five thousand four hundred. All these Sheshbazzar brought up when the exiles were brought up from Babylonia to Jerusalem. Hear the word of the LORD. Thanks be to God 2nd Reading COLOSSIANS 1.21-29 21 And you who were once estranged and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds, 22 he has now reconciled in his fleshly body through death, so as to present you holy and blameless and irreproachable before him, 23 provided that you continue securely established and steadfast in the faith, without shifting from the hope promised by the gospel that you heard, which has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven. I, Paul, became a minister of this gospel.   24 I am now rejoicing in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am completing what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church. 25 I became its minister according to God's commission that was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known, 26 the mystery that has been hidden throughout the ages and generations but has now been revealed to his saints. 27 To them God chose to make known how great among the gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. 28 It is he whom we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone in all wisdom, so that we may present everyone mature in Christ. 29 For this I toil and strive with all the energy that he powerfully inspires within me.   Hear the message of Christ. Thanks be to God.     7 The Canticle, We praise you O God: we claim you as Lord. All creation thanks you: The Father everlasting. To you all angels, all the powers of heaven: The cherubim and serafim sing in endless praise: Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of power and might: Heaven and earth are full of your glory. Father of majesty unbounded: Your true and only son, worthy of all praise, the Holy Spirit, advocate and guide. You, Christ, are the king of glory, the eternal son of the father. When you took our flesh to set us free: You humbly chose the virgin's womb. You overcame the sting of death: And opened the kingdom of heaven to all believers. You are seated at God's right hand in glory: We believe that you will come to be our judge. Come then, God, and help your people, bought with the price of your own blood: And bring us with your Saints to glory everlasting.   8 The belief and principle is said I believe in God, creator of heaven and earth, whose love and merciful forgiveness endures everlasting. I believe in Christ the saviour, whose example of love and compassion, taught us a restored way to live, in collaborative unity with all people. I believe in the Holy Spirit, whose divine guidance brings us together to be one with the Holy Trinity. Amen.   9 The Prayers Lord have mercy.  Christ have mercy.  God have mercy.      10 The Lord's Prayer and the Collect of the Day Our Father in heaven,  hallowed be your name,  your kingdom come,  your will be done,  on earth as in heaven.  Give us today our daily bread.  Forgive us our sins  as we forgive those who sin against us.  Save us from the time of trial  and deliver us from evil.  For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours  now and for ever. Amen.      Prayer of the Week following the EIGHTEENTH Sunday after Pentecost O God, You declare your almighty power Chiefly in showing mercy and pity Mercifully grant us such a measure of your grace That running in the way of your commandments We may obtain your gracious promises And be made partakers of your heavenly treasure Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen Amen   11 Intercessions and Thanksgivings may be made according to local custom and need. Let us pray Wednesday prayers Lord, we give you thanks, that through your son Jesus Christ, you have shown us the way to live in your righteousness. You made us in your likeness, you gave your only son Jesus Christ who gave us forgiveness of sin, bring us together as one, different in culture but given new life in Jesus Christ. Reconciled, forgiven, sharing you with others as you have called us to do.

Welcome to Season 6, Episode 39! Our guest today is acclaimed author Autumn Krause. Her books blend fantasy, gothic storytelling, folklore, romance, and history… often with characters trying to find their place in their world while encountering forces much bigger than themselves. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Autumn has described herself as a gothic romantic at heart. She's our first guest who has worked in the bridal industry, a background she talks about a little in the conversation. Her experience as a bridal gown stylist in Beverly Hills helped inspire her first novel, A Dress for the Wicked, published in 2019, which transported the glamour and competition of high fashion into a fantastical Victorian-inspired world. She's also the author of Before the Devil Knows You're Here, that combines American folklore, horror, romance, and Mexican American identity in a reimagining of legends like Johnny Appleseed as well as Grave Flowers, that is a gothic fantasy filled with twin princesses, murder, court intrigue, and some very dangerous flowers. Her latest work, The Gods Will Sing Our Song mixes mythology, history, romance, and her own Japanese American family story. Set during the incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II, the novel has already earned starred reviews from Publishers Weekly and School Library Journal. The story follows Ren and Violet, two teenagers who have varying outlooks on life, family, and more. As they meet and grow closer during their time at Manzanar, they also encounter supernatural beings, racism, Japanese folklore, and ancient magic. In our conversation, we talk about Autumn's background, what inspired her to write The Gods Will Sing Our Song, what she hopes readers get out of it, her family's experience in the Gila River "camp", the challenges of writing a dual perspective book, and so much more.

AI headlines making you anxious? Try four ways to keep calm, regulate your nervous system and take your finger off the panic button today. When Jacob Coxon, an AI researcher, quit his Silicon Valley job at Anthropic on September 8th, he said AI could end us all by the close of this decade. Yikes, that’s scary. If you’re tired of these AI shock-and-horror headlines and want to know how to respond and keep calm, here are four ways that actually work, plus my honest, intuitive take that I want to share. Why AI Headlines Hit So Hard I’m tired of these AI shock and horror headlines. Even though there are no controls yet, this is a real concern. Honestly, many other world events get hyped the same way. They are written to freak us out and grab eyeballs to improve web stats and make money for advertisers. While these are real problems, the choice of words used makes everything worse. I can’t deny there isn’t something to many of these issues, from war to AI to concern about food production. But right now, I can’t move to any other world. The transport hasn’t been created and there’s no one to receive us yet on the moon or Mars. So, I’m stuck here on Earth and left to my own devices. That’s why I must find some brave way to “keep calm and carry on,” as the saying goes. Metaphysical Tools Help You Keep Calm Having studied, taught, and applied a wide range of metaphysical learning over the last 30+ years, I have a lot of material to draw upon. What’s needed are super easy, proven methods to keep us from panicking and to regulate our nervous systems. After all, you can’t live a peaceful, joy-filled life with your finger on the panic button 24/7. That just keeps you on high alert and makes you terribly edgy. Me too! So below, you’ll find four powerful, yet methods to help you stay regulated. 1. Take a Break From the News Feed You don’t need to read every article or know every detail. In fact, that’s a proven way to intensify your anxiety. The best thing you can do right now is put the phone down and stay away from screens. If that’s not possible, limit your check-ins to once or twice a day. You aren’t going to miss anything vital. Someone will tell you if anything catastrophic happens. 2. Use Sound to Regulate Your Vibe There are many ways to incorporate sound into a calming practice that regulates your nervous system. Try a few to discover what works best for you. A. Listen to spiritual chanting or prayers. Most religions use the voice as part of their service, and there’s a solid reason. Singing of any kind raises your frequency. It lifts your energy above whatever is impacting your emotions. B. Listen to solfeggio frequencies. This range of tones, conceptualized by Dr. Joseph Puleo, is used in sound healing today and there are plenty of good musical and meditation choices on  YouTube: 396 Hz for releasing fear and guilt 417 Hz for clearing trauma 528 Hz often called the “love” or “transformation” frequency 639 Hz for relationships and connection 741 Hz for expression and problem-solving 852 Hz for spiritual order and intuition, 963 Hz for connection to higher consciousness. C. Go to a sound bath. In person is best, because you can literally feel the music vibrate in your body. If you can’t get there, sound baths can also be found on YouTube. D. Sing your favorite songs. Nothing beats belting out a few show tunes or songs from your favorite band to pick up your spirits and uplift your frequency. E. Hum. Humming is a proven mood elevator. It also releases nitric oxide, a molecule your body naturally produces that relaxes blood vessels, improves blood flow. Plus, it has a broader calming effect on the parasympathetic system. 3. Make Yourself Happy Whatever healthy things you can do to make yourself happy, do more of that. Call a friend, have a meal out, snuggle with your partner, watch silly animal videos or funny movies. Doodle, paint, play an instrument, read a book. Sometimes laughter and connection are the very best medicine for calming your nerves. Spend time with your family. Play games or watch old family videos. Go out in nature. Walk by the water, pick apples, bake a pie. Life is filled with fun things to do. Find them and do them more often. Don’t put off the fun in life because it’s actually essential for your own well-being. 4. The Five-Question Method This method has roots in the coaching training I received more than 20 years ago, and I’ve added a fifth question and adapted it for this exact “scary headlines” situation. These five questions bring you back into the present moment to feel calmer and more in charge: Is this information true? Is it a fact or a prediction? Do I find this information helpful? Can I do anything about it? What does this way of thinking keep me locked into? What would I rather be thinking? Today, it’s hard to know what’s true, since many news sources present information with their own bias. That’s not how the news used to be delivered. When you go through these questions one at a time, you’re faced with a rational approach to whatever the news or social media is presenting. Because you don’t know if the information is true, that also makes it hard to know if what they’re saying is helpful. But when people like Coxon quit their AI jobs because AI might take over by the end of this decade, that’s a massive statement. Is it true? We have no way of knowing, and I’ll share where my gut lands on this massive quandary below. Keep Asking Questions That’s why the third question asking what can I do about the problem, hits hard. What can I do about AI taking over the world? Zero, nada, zilch, nothing. You and I cannot do a single thing to save us from AI. So, why spend energy on something where you have no power? That’s a reason not to spend much time on the newsfeed. If anything serious happens, someone will tell you. With the fourth question, asking what this news about AI keeps you locked into? That’s fear! The more you read, think and talk about it, the worse the fear can get. Right now there is no solution. We can only hope there will be a few grownups in government who will put up the guard rails. In the fifth question, your power comes back online. What would you rather be thinking about? When you get to choose what you spend your time thinking about and doing, you’re back in charge of your life. MY hope is that you choose happier thoughts and topics. My Take on the AI Situation This is my honest take, and it’s intuitive, not proof. I don’t believe this is how the story of humanity ends. Something in my gut says annihilation isn’t the direction we’re headed. Remember Y2K? Years of fear and preparation ands when the clock rolled around to 2000, what happened to the computers? Nothing! Yes, the risk right now is real enough that people inside these companies are standing up to state this possibility. But people on the inside taking a stand is the good news. Even Daniel Kokotajlo, the researcher who wrote the original scenario predicting AI could take over by 2027, has since pushed his own timeline back. If the person who built the doomsday clock keeps resetting it, that tells you that these predictions aren’t so solid. They’re already being revised, and that’s more good news. I keep coming back to the movie I, Robot. Will Smith’s character doesn’t save the day with a better computer or robot. He does it with his human stubbornness, instinct, and heart. I believe that’s the same combination that will get us through this difficult time as well. This is How Change Begins This is what’s essential about Coxon speaking up. His post reached over 100 million people. It got Anthropic’s own alignment lead to say publicly that the company doesn’t yet have a plan to solve safety for superintelligence. While that isn’t comforting on the surface, it’s exactly how change happens. Someone brave refuses to stay quiet, the pressure builds, and the people with power to act have to respond in the daylight. Public attention is part of how safeguards and regulation actually get built. You watching, caring, and talking about it is not nothing. But you can’t stay glued to that spot and live a healthy, happy life. I can’t tell you what AI will or won’t do in the future. Nobody can, no matter how many followers their doomsday post gets. What I can tell you is that living every day like the sky is about to fall does its own kind of damage to your body, your sleep, your relationships, and your joy. That’s the part you have full control over, starting right now. You don’t need 100% certainty about the future to take your finger off the panic button today and remember to breathe, relax, and enjoy life. So Where Is the Calm? Give the news feed a break – you won’t miss anything vital Use sound (chanting, solfeggio, sound baths, singing, or humming) to raise your vibe and regulate your nervous system Make yourself happy on purpose, every day Run scary headlines through the five-question method before you let them bother you You don’t need certainty about the future to take your finger off the panic button today FAQs How do I stop panicking about scary AI news? Take a break from your news feed, use sound like humming or chanting to calm your nervous system, do things that make you happy, and run the headline through five grounding questions before letting it take hold. Does humming actually calm you down? Yes.

Rudy Reyes is a Recon Marine who grew up in a boys' home, lost brothers to combat and suicide after service, and now leads military selection courses on Fox's Special Forces and the UK's SAS Who Dares Wins.   Joe De Sena sits down with Rudy to break down what happened when Season 5 moved into the jungle: 100% humidity, 105-degree heat, cobras, scorpions, and contestants dropping within days.   They dig into why Marine Corps culture produces a different kind of person, why harsh physical conditions change lives in ways therapy and motivation cannot, and how Rudy stayed relevant after combat by never stopping training.   Rudy also shares his path to Heat 2, the upcoming film from director Michael Mann, and the boys' home discipline that made everything else possible.   Things You Will Learn: Why Marine Corps culture builds a different standard than any other branch, and what that culture actually demands. The reason harsh physical conditions produce life change that motivation, therapy, and comfort cannot replicate. What a military selection show reveals about who actually quits and who surprises everyone by lasting. Tools & Frameworks Covered: Equal Load: Whether 110 pounds or 300, the weight is the same. Removing special treatment forces honest performance and reveals who has trained their mind, not just their body. Harsh Conditions as the Mechanism: The transformation people report after Spartan races and military selections is not from coaching or inspiration. It is from sustained physical discomfort that resets the nervous system and strips away excuses. Attack the Day Protocol: Get blood flowing immediately. Sing, pace, squeeze. Speak your day into existence before the world speaks it for you. Start physical before you start mental.   Special Forces: World's Toughest Test premieres Thursday, Sept. 24 at 9/8c on FOX, next day on Hulu.   Chapters: 0:00 Intro: Rudy Reyes, Recon Marine, and his first Spartan race at Killington 0:51 Joe meets Rudy for the first time 15 years ago 1:57 Racing together in Sparta, Greece 2:39 Why Marine Corps culture produces a different kind of person 4:25 The living room gym, lost brothers, and staying relevant after combat 8:53 Special Forces on Fox 09:55 Season 5 in the jungle 11:32 The jungle will kill you long before you see the enemy 12:30 Why harsh conditions change lives when nothing else does 14:13 Heat 2 with Michael Mann: The movie role of a lifetime 19:29 Three things for people stuck on the couch 21:03 Joe's son: Number one wrestler in the country at 157 pounds   Rodolfo "Rudy" Reyes is a Recon Marine who grew up in a boys' home in the Midwest, earned his place through discipline and grades, and went on to serve in some of the most intense combat operations of the Iraq War. He is known worldwide from HBO's Generation Kill, the BAFTA-winning documentary Once Upon a Time in Iraq, and as a lead instructor on Fox's Special Forces and the UK's SAS Who Dares Wins alongside Billy Billingham and Jason Fox. Season 5, filmed in the jungle, premieres this fall. He has been cast in Heat 2, directed by Michael Mann.

THE SONG #RTTBROS #NIGHTLIGHT THE SONG BEFORE THE STRUGGLEI was thinking today about how we usually write the song after the victory. We wait until the battle is won, the dust settles, and the trophy is in our hands before we start singing about how great the win was. It feels natural to praise God for what He has already done.But there is something different about the song of Moses and the children of Israel. They sang while they were still standing on the edge of a wilderness. They had just seen the Red Sea part, but they looked out and faced a future that included a desert and a destination that would require facing fortified cities, standing against giants, and enduring a long, hard journey to get there.They didn't wait for the Promised Land to start the music. They sang because they knew who was walking with them."The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him." — Exodus 15:2God doesn't just give us strength for the moment we are in; He gives us a song to carry us through the moments that haven't happened yet. He empowers us for the giants and the deserts before we even see them on the horizon.Tonight, you might be staring at a wilderness of your own. Don't wait for the victory to find your voice. Let His strength be your song right now, in the middle of the unknown.Sing it anyway. He's already ahead of you.https://linktr.ee/rttbros#BibleWisdomDaily #ChristianWisdom #PracticalBiblicalWisdom #Prayer #Trust #RTTBROS #Nightlight

For centuries, Europe's most celebrated opera singers had voices that sounded almost supernatural — powerful, soaring, and unlike anything audiences had ever heard before.They were known as the castrati.From the sacred choirs of the Vatican to the grand opera houses of Europe, these singers became some of the biggest celebrities of the 17th and 18th centuries. Kings invited them to royal courts. Fans travelled across countries just to hear them perform. Some became astonishingly wealthy and famous.But behind those extraordinary voices was a secret far darker than most audiences realised.In this episode of The StickyBeak, Monika O'Hanlon explores the strange and unsettling history of the castrati — how the practice began in Renaissance Italy, why thousands of boys were drawn into the system, and how a handful rose to become global superstars like Farinelli.You'll also hear about the last surviving castrato, Alessandro Moreschi, whose early 1900s recordings remain the only surviving example of what these voices actually sounded like.It's a story about music, fame, ambition… and the uncomfortable lengths societies will sometimes go to in pursuit of beauty.This episode was brought to you by Tüt, toilet lid stickers to zhuzh up your toot.

Your life was made to be a Psalm.As this journey through the Psalms draws toward its close, John Ortberg reflects on where the Psalter has been leading us all along.Psalm 1 begins by asking what kind of life we will live. The Psalms then carry us through fear, anger, grief, confession, hope, and joy. But the final five Psalms end in an explosion of one thing:Praise.In Psalm 148, everything is invited into the song: people, animals, mountains, stars, sun, moon, even the creatures of the sea.And so are you.Maybe a life with God isn't about escaping the messiness of being human. Maybe it's about learning to bring all of it before God until our lives themselves become a song.Hallelujah.#Psalm148 #JohnOrtberg #Psalms #Praise #Hallelujah #SpiritualFormationSTEPS SEMINAR, October 17th - REGISTER HERE:https://www.oceanhills.org/event/steps-workshop-with-john-ortberg

Superb Fairy-wrens teach their embryonic chicks a secret code. This "incubation call" contains a special note that will later serve as a password. When the chicks have hatched, this password enables the adult birds to identify their babies in the darkness of their domed nest. A species of Australian cuckoo lays its eggs in the wren's nest, hoping to pawn off the task of parenting. But wren chicks learn their mother's song and incorporate the password note into their begging calls. More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.
