Transcript: Jason Isaacson: It has become clear to me in my travels in the region over the decades that more and more people across the Arab world understood the game, and they knew that this false narrative – that Jews are not legitimately there, and that somehow we have to focus all of our energy in the Arab world on combating this evil interloper – it's nonsense. And it's becoming increasingly clear that, in fact, Israel can be a partner. Manya Brachear Pashman: In September 2020, the world saw what had been years – decades – in the making: landmark peace agreements dubbed the Abraham Accords -- normalizing relations between Israel and two Arabian Gulf states, the United Arab Emirates and the Kingdom of Bahrain.  Later in December, they were joined by the Kingdom of Morocco. Five years later, AJC is pulling back the curtain to meet key individuals who built the trust that led to these breakthroughs. Introducing: the Architects of Peace. Manya Brachear Pashman: On the eve of the signing of the Abraham Accords, AJC Chief Policy and Political Affairs Officer Jason Isaacson found himself traveling to the end of a tree filled winding road in McLean, Virginia, to sip tea on the back terrace with Bahraini Ambassador Shaikh Abdulla bin Rashid Al Khalifa and Bahrain's Minister of Foreign Affairs Dr. Abdullatif bin Rashid Al Zayani. Jason Isaacson: Sitting in the backyard of the Bahraini ambassador's house with Dr. Al Zayani, the Foreign Minister of Bahrain and with Shaikh Abdulla, the ambassador, and hearing what was about to happen the next day on the South Lawn of the White House was a thrilling moment. And really, in many ways, just a validation of the work that AJC has been doing for many years–before I came to the organization, and the time that I've spent with AJC since the early 90s.  This possibility of Israel's true integration in the region, Israel's cooperation and peace with its neighbors, with all of its neighbors – this was clearly the threshold that we were standing on. Manya Brachear Pashman: If you're wondering how Jason ended up sipping tea in such esteemed company the night before his hosts made history, wonder no more. Here's the story. Yitzchak Shamir: The people of Israel look to this palace with great anticipation and expectation. We pray that this meeting will mark the beginning of a new chapter in the history of the Middle East; that it will signal the end of hostility, violence, terror, and war; that it will bring dialogue, accommodation, co-existence, and above all, peace. Manya Brachear Pashman: That was Israel's Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir speaking in October 1991 at the historic Madrid Peace Conference -- the first time Israel and Arab delegations engaged in direct talks toward peace. It had taken 43 years to reach this point – 43 years since the historic United Nations Resolution that created separate Jewish and Arab states – a resolution Jewish leaders accepted, but Arab states scorned. Not even 24 hours after Israel declared its independence on May 14, 1948, the armies of Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria attacked the new Jewish state, which fought back mightily and expanded its territory. The result? A deep-seated distrust among Israel, its neighboring nations, and some of the Arab residents living within Israel's newly formed borders. Though many Palestinian Arabs stayed, comprising over 20 percent of Israel's population today, hundreds of thousands of others left or were displaced. Meanwhile, in reaction to the rebirth of the Jewish state, and over the following two decades, Jewish communities long established in Arab states faced hardship and attacks, forcing Jews by the hundreds of thousands to flee. Israel's War of Independence set off a series of wars with neighboring nations, terrorist attacks, and massacres. Peace in the region saw more than a few false starts, with one rare exception.  In 1979, after the historic visit to Israel by Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, he and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin joined President Jimmy Carter for negotiations at Camp David and signed a peace treaty that for the next 15 years, remained the only formal agreement between Israel and an Arab state. In fact, it was denounced uniformly across the Arab world.  But 1991 introduced dramatic geopolitical shifts. The collapse of the Soviet Union, which had severed relations with Israel during the Six-Day War of 1967, diminished its ability to back Syria, Iraq, and Libya. In the USSR's final months, it re-established diplomatic relations with Israel but left behind a regional power vacuum that extremists started to fill. Meanwhile, most Arab states, including Syria, joined the successful U.S.-led coalition against Saddam Hussein that liberated Kuwait, solidifying American supremacy in the region and around the world. The Palestine Liberation Organization, which claimed to represent the world's Palestinians, supported Iraq and Libya.  Seizing an opportunity, the U.S. and the enfeebled but still relevant Soviet Union invited to Madrid a joint Jordanian-Palestinian delegation, along with delegations from Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Egypt, and Israel. Just four months before that Madrid meeting, Jason Isaacson had left his job on Capitol Hill to work for the American Jewish Committee. At that time, AJC published a magazine titled Commentary, enabling Jason to travel to the historic summit with media credentials and hang out with the press pool. Jason Isaacson: It was very clear in just normal conversations with these young Arab journalists who I was spending some time with, that there was the possibility of an openness that I had not realized existed. There was a possibility of kind of a sense of common concerns about the region, that was kind of refreshing and was sort of running counter to the narratives that have dominated conversations in that part of the world for so long.  And it gave me the sense that by expanding the circle of relationships that I was just starting with in Madrid, we might be able to make some progress. We might be able to find some partners with whom AJC could develop a real relationship. Manya Brachear Pashman: AJC had already begun to build ties in the region in the 1950s, visiting Arab countries like Morocco and Tunisia, which had sizable Jewish populations. The rise in Arab nationalism in Tunisia and rebirth of Israel eventually led to an exodus that depleted the Jewish community there. Emigration depleted Morocco's Jewish community as well.  Jason Isaacson: To say that somehow this is not the native land of the Jewish people is just flying in the face of the reality. And yet, that was the propaganda line that was pushed out across the region. Of course, Madrid opened a lot of people's eyes. But that wasn't enough. More had to be done. There were very serious efforts made by the U.S. government, Israeli diplomats, Israeli businesspeople, and my organization, which played a very active role in trying to introduce people to the reality that they would benefit from this relationship with Israel.  So it was pushing back against decades of propaganda and lies. And that was one of the roles that we assigned to ourselves and have continued to play. Manya Brachear Pashman: No real negotiations took place at the Madrid Conference, rather it opened conversations that unfolded in Moscow, in Washington, and behind closed doors in secret locations around the world. Progress quickened under Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. In addition to a peace treaty between Israel and Jordan, reached in 1994, secret talks in Norway between Israel and PLO resulted in the Oslo Accords, a series of agreements signed in 1993 and 1995 that ended the First Intifada after six years of violence, and laid out a five-year timeline for achieving a two-state solution. Extremists tried to derail the process. A Jewish extremist assassinated Rabin in 1995. And a new terror group  launched a series of suicide attacks against Israeli civilians. Formed during the First Intifada, these terrorists became stars of the Second. They called themselves Hamas. AP News Report: [sirens] [in Hebrew] Don't linger, don't linger. Manya Brachear Pashman: On March 27, 2002, Hamas sent a suicide bomber into an Israeli hotel where 250 guests had just been seated for a Passover Seder. He killed 30 people and injured 140 more. The day after the deadliest suicide attack in Israel's history, the Arab League, a coalition of 22 Arab nations in the Middle East and Africa, unveiled what it called the Arab Peace Initiative – a road map offering wide scale normalization of relations with Israel, but with an ultimatum: No expansion of Arab-Israeli relations until the establishment of a Palestinian state within the pre-1967 armistice lines and a so-called right of return for Palestinians who left and their descendants.   As the Second Intifada continued to take civilian lives, the Israeli army soon launched Operation Defensive Shield to secure the West Bank and parts of Gaza. It was a period of high tension, conflict, and distrust. But behind the scenes, Jason and AJC were forging ahead, building bridges, and encountering an openness in Arab capitals that belied the ultimatum.  Jason Isaacson: It has become clear to me in my travels in the region over the decades that more and more people across the Arab world understood the game, and they knew that that this false narrative that Jews are not legitimately there, and that somehow we have to focus all of our energy in the Arab world on combating this evil interloper – it's nonsense. And it's becoming increasingly clear that, in fact, Israel can be a partner of Arab countries. Manya Brachear Pashman: Jason led delegations of Jewish leaders to Arab capitals, oversaw visits by Arab leaders to Israel, and cultivated relationships of strategic and political consequence with governments and civil society leaders across North Africa, the Levant, and the Arabian Peninsula. In 2009, King Mohammed VI of Morocco bestowed on him the honor of Chevalier of the Order of the Throne of the Kingdom of Morocco. Jason's priority was nurturing one key element missing from Arab-Israeli relations. An element that for decades had been absent in most Middle East peace negotiations: trust.   Jason Isaacson: Nothing is more important than developing trust. Trust and goodwill are, if not synonymous, are so closely linked. Yes, a lot of these discussions that AJC's been engaged in over many years have been all about, not only developing a set of contacts we can turn to when there's a crisis or when we need answers to questions or when we need to pass a message along to a government. But also, develop a sense that we all want the same thing and we trust each other. That if someone is prepared to take certain risks to advance the prospect of peace, which will involve risk, which will involve vulnerability. That a neighbor who might have demonstrated in not-so-distant past animosity and hostility toward Israel can be trusted to take a different course. Manya Brachear Pashman: A number of Israeli diplomats and businesspeople also worked toward that goal. While certain diplomatic channels in the intelligence and security spheres stayed open out of necessity – other diplomats and businesspeople with dual citizenship traveled across the region, quietly breaking down barriers, starting conversations, and building trust.  Jason Isaacson: I would run into people in Arab capitals from time to time, who were fulfilling that function, and traveling with different passports that they had legitimately, because they were from those countries. It was just a handful of people in governments that would necessarily know that they were there. So yes, if that sounds like cloak and dagger, it's kind of a cloak and dagger operation, a way for people to maintain a relationship and build a relationship until the society is ready to accept the reality that it will be in their country's best interest to have that relationship. Manya Brachear Pashman: Privately, behind the scenes, signs emerged that some Arab leaders understood the role that Jews have played in the region's history for millennia and the possibilities that would exist if Muslims and Jews could restore some of the faith and friendship of bygone years.  Jason Isaacson: I remember sitting with King Mohammed the VI of Morocco just weeks after his ascension to the throne, so going back more than a quarter century, and hearing him talk with me and AJC colleagues about the 600,000 subjects that he had in Israel. Of course, these were Jews, Israelis of Moroccan descent, who are in the hundreds of thousands. But the sense that these countries really have a common history. Manya Brachear Pashman: Common history, yes. Common goals, too. And not for nothing, a common enemy. The same extremist forces that have been bent on Israel's destruction have not only disrupted Israeli-Arab peace, they've prevented the Palestinian people from thriving in a state of their own and now threaten the security and stability of the entire region. Jason Isaacson:  We are hopeful that in partnership with those in the Arab world who feel the same way about the need to push back against extremism, including the extremism promoted, promulgated, funded, armed by the Islamic Republic of Iran, that we can have enough of a network of supportive players in the Arab world, in the West. Working with Israel and working with Palestinian partners who are interested in the same future. A real future, a politically free future, where we can actually make some progress. And that's an ongoing effort. This is a point that we made consistently over many years: if you want to help the Palestinian people–and we want to help the Palestinian people–but if you, fill in the blank Arab government official, your country wants to help the Palestinian people, you're not helping them by pretending that Israel doesn't exist.  You're not helping them by isolating Israel, by making Israel a pariah in the minds of your people. You will actually have leverage with Israel, and you'll help the Palestinians when they're sitting at a negotiating table across from the Israelis. If you engage Israel, if you have access to the Israeli officials and they have a stake in your being on their side on certain things and working together on certain common issues. Manya Brachear Pashman: Jason says more and more Arab leaders are realizing, with some frustration, that isolating Israel is a losing proposition for all the parties involved. It has not helped the Palestinian people. It has not kept extremism at bay. And it has not helped their own countries and their own citizens prosper. In fact, the limitations that isolating Israel imposes have caused many countries to lag behind the tiny Jewish state. Jason Isaacson: I think there was just this sense of how far back we have fallen, how much ground we have to make up. We need to break out of the old mindset and try something different. But that before the Abraham Accords, they were saying it in the years leading up to the Abraham Accords, with increasing frustration for the failure of Palestinian leadership to seize opportunities that had been held out to them. But frankly, also contributing, I think, to this was this insistence on isolating themselves from a naturally synergistic relationship with a neighboring state right next door that could contribute to the welfare of their societies. It just didn't make a whole lot of sense, and it denied them the ability to move forward. Manya Brachear Pashman: Jason remembers the first time he heard an Arab official utter the words out loud – expressing a willingness, daresay desire, to partner with Israel. Jason Isaacson: It took a long time, but I could see in 2016, 17, 18, 19, this growing awareness, and finally hearing it actually spoken out loud in one particular conference that I remember going to in 2018 in Bahrain, by a senior official from an Arab country. It took a long time for that lesson to penetrate, but it's absolutely the case. Manya Brachear Pashman: In 2019, Bahrain hosted an economic summit where the Trump administration presented its "Peace to Prosperity" plan, a $50 billion investment proposal to create jobs and improve the lives of Palestinians while also promoting regional peace and security. Palestinians rejected the plan outright and refused to attend. Bahrain invited Israeli media to cover the summit. That September, on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, AJC presented its inaugural Architect of Peace Award to the Kingdom of Bahrain's chief diplomat for nearly 20 years. Shaikh Khalid bin Ahmed Al Khalifa, Bahrain's Minister of Foreign Affairs at the time, told Jason that it was important to learn the lessons of the late Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and late Jordanian King Hussein, both of whom signed peace treaties with Israel. He also explained the reason why Bahrain invited Israeli media.  Shaikh Khalid bin Ahmed Al Khalifa: President Anwar Sadat did it, he broke a huge barrier. He was a man of war, he was the leader of a country that went to war or two with Israel. But then he knew that at the right moment he would want to go straight to Israeli and talk to them. We fulfilled also something that we've always wanted to do, we've discussed it many times: talking to the Israeli public through the Israeli media.  Why not talk to the people? They wake up every day, they have their breakfast watching their own TV channels, they read their own papers, they read their own media, they form their own opinion.    Absolutely nobody should shy away from talking to the media. We are trying to get our point across. In order to convince. How will you do it? There is no language of silence. You'll have to talk and you'll have to remove all those barriers and with that, trust can be built. Manya Brachear Pashman: Jason had spent decades building that trust and the year to come yielded clear results. In May and June 2020, UAE Ambassador to the UN Lana Nusseibeh and UAE Minister of State Dr. Anwar Gargash both participated in AJC webinars to openly discuss cooperation with Israel – a topic once considered taboo.  So when the Abraham Accords were signed a few months later, for Jason and AJC colleagues who had been on this long journey for peace, it was a natural progression. Though no less dramatic.  Sitting with Minister Al Khalifa's successor, Dr. Al Zayani, and the Bahraini ambassador on the evening before the White House ceremony, it was time to drink a toast to a new chapter of history in the region. Jason Isaacson: I don't think that that would have been possible had there not been decades of contacts that had been made by many people. Roving Israeli diplomats and Israeli business people, usually operating, in fact, maybe always operating with passports from other countries, traveling across the region. And frankly, our work and the work of a limited number of other people who were in non-governmental positions. Some journalists, authors, scholars, business people, and we certainly did a great deal of this over decades, would speak with leaders in these countries and influential people who are not government officials. And opening up their minds to the possibility of the advantages that would accrue to their societies by engaging Israel and by better understanding the Jewish people and who we are, what we care about, who we are not.  Because there was, of course, a great deal of decades, I should say, centuries and millennia, of misapprehensions and lies about the Jewish people. So clearing away that baggage was a very important part of the work that we did, and I believe that others did as well. We weren't surprised. We were pleased. We applauded the Trump administration, the President and his team, for making this enormous progress on advancing regional security and peace, prosperity. We are now hoping that we can build on those achievements of 2020 going forward and expanding fully the integration of Israel into its neighborhood.

    John is joined by singer-songwriter and musician Laufey and producer Spencer Stewart to discuss how they wrote and recorded the album ‘Silver Lining'. Having performed on numerous national TV singing shows in her youth, Icelandic-Chinese artist Laufey released her first full-length album, ‘Everything I Know About Love' in 2022. It was praised for seamlessly blending jazz influences with contemporary production. Her second album, ‘Bewitched', continued this trend with its captivating jazz-pop ballads and earned her the 2024 Grammy Award for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. Laufey met producer Spencer Stewart when they were students at music college in the US and they have been collaborating ever since. Laufey's much anticipated third album ‘A Matter of Time' was released on 24th August 2025. Sitting down at Strongroom Studios in London, the trio discuss how creativity often involves breaking formal rules, why the voice is an underrated instrument, the importance of not being a snob when it comes to technology and their belief that when it sounds wrong in the studio, it might just be because you've hit on something really original!  Tracks discussed: Lover Girl; Tough Luck; Too Little, Too Late TAPE IT Thanks to our friends at Tape It for supporting the podcast.

    In this episode, I reflect on some of the "No" responses I receive from potential guests. I have hosted this show for seven years and 376 episodes, yet some of my most popular episodes are about guests who declined to be on the show. I discuss three types of "Nos": a direct "No," an initial "Yes" followed by silence, and no response at all. I note that the rejections that linger with me are from guests I desperately wanted to host. I explain that I sometimes share these stories with my listeners to create something out of nothing and to explain what sparked my curiosity in the first place. I conclude that while a "No" still stings, I have learned not to take it personally; it is a fact of podcast life.

Heather Kolb was in the thick of parenting young children when she found out her husband was being dishonest with her and battling sexual addictions. Scared and heartbroken, Heather stepped away from the church and managed things on her own until she found Pure Desire Ministries. Join hosts Elisa Morgan and Eryn Eddy Adkins as they hear from Heather about her story and discover how we can recover from patterns of addiction during this God Hears Her conversation.  Notes and Quotes:  “My life felt out of control, and yet I had been doing all the things that I had been taught to do in the church.

    Sitting by the River with Jesus: Trauma, Mysticism, and Communal Healing with Aizaiah Yong

    What if everything we think we know about trauma and healing is backwards? Today I'm talking with Aizaiah Young about his incredible new book "Trauma and Renewal" and honestly, this conversation blew me away. Isaiah survived a near-death motorcycle accident right after passing his PhD comprehensive exams (talk about terrible timing), and during a 16-hour surgery, he had this profound mystical encounter with Jesus that completely reshaped how he thinks about transformation. But here's the thing - this isn't some individualistic "I found healing and so can you" story. Instead, Aizaiah argues that real healing is relational, communal, and intercultural, and he's doing something really brave by including his parents' voices throughout the book as they process this traumatic journey together. We dive deep into contemplative tradition, Internal Family Systems therapy, the vision he had of sitting in silence by a river with Jesus (who apparently has a great sense of humor), and how the whole Western approach to selfhood might be fundamentally missing the point. Isaiah's working at the Collegeville Institute now with the Benedictines, and if you want to meet him in person, he'll be hanging out with us at Theology Beer Camp this October in St. Paul. This is one of those conversations that stays with you. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Aizaiah G. Yong is an ordained pentecostal Christian minister and practical theologian who has served in religious and higher education leadership for over a decade devoting his energy to healing and advocacy work that centers QTBIPOC communities.

In this message from Matthew 11, Pastor Ernest Grant II opens our Benefit of Doubt series by showing us that even John the Baptist—the man who baptized Jesus and heard the voice from heaven—had questions. Sitting in prison, he wondered, “Are You really the One?” If you've ever found yourself in a prison of unmet expectations, delays, or silence from God… this message is for you. Jesus isn't offended by your doubts. In fact, He invites you to bring them to Him. Because doubt isn't the enemy of faith—it can be the birthplace of something deeper, stronger, and more real.

    Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Support our mission to teach every verse of the Bible on video over the next 23 years. Read more about it here: PROJECT23 Our text today is Mark 16:19-20: “So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God. And they went out and proclaimed the gospel everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the message by accompanying signs.”— Mark 16:19-20 The curtain closes on Mark's gospel with an unforgettable moment. Jesus lifts off the ground, rising above the clouds, until heaven swallows him up. Gone from sight, he takes his seat of authority beside the Father. Yet his work is far from over. The eleven disciples pour into the streets, fueled by his final words. They preach, pray, and watch God back their message with miracles that turn heads and soften hearts. Jesus' ascension reveals two truths: He reigns in heaven and He empowers on earth. Sitting at God's right hand means his work is complete and perfect. Yet his mission continues through us. When we share the gospel, we aren't alone. The same Lord who conquered death stands with us, backing every word with his power. Too often, we tuck our faith behind closed doors. We think Jesus is distant, leaving us to figure out life on our own. But the ascended Christ rules at God's right hand and stands alongside you today. Your words matter. Your prayers matter. When you step out in obedience, Jesus goes with you. Faith in motion means joining heaven's King in his ongoing work. Let's live as if the Gospel is taking effect in our lives, so that Christ can affect others through us. ASK THIS: How does knowing Jesus reigns from heaven change your confidence in sharing the gospel? When have you felt God confirm your words with a “sign” or answer to prayer? What mission has Jesus given you in your family, workplace, or community? How can you lean more on Christ's power rather than your own efforts this week? DO THIS: Choose one person in your life who hasn't heard the full gospel—send them a message or invite them to coffee, then share the core truth of Christ's death, resurrection, and your own hope in him. PRAY THIS: Lord Jesus, exalted King, thank you for sitting at the Father's right hand and sending me out. Fill me with courage and power so your message changes lives wherever I go. Amen PLAY THIS: "O Worship the Risen Christ."

    “I was surprised to learn lesbians accessorized. I didn't know that.” We watched “Kissing Jessica Stein” with the insightful Samantha Mann, author of “Dyke Delusions: Essays & Observations.”  Sitting with Sam talking about this touchstone of queer/lesbian cinema really hammers home that the two of us are just a couple of dumb boys. This movie harkens back to a pre-9/11 New York as well as the cinema landscape. This was a time when, yes, representation did matter, but so did a quirky downtown apartment with exposed brick that you could afford to live in without multiple roommates. We all talk about the quality of “gay” movies in the 90's and early aughts, but the lesbian movies were practically nonexistent - so the representation we got in this movie was a total necessity - not to mention the entire “lipstick” element of it all. Jennifer Westfeldt (Jessica) and Heather Juergensen (Helen) co-wrote this screenplay based on their play “Lipschtick,” and the labor put into it really pays off. The screenplay is tight, funny, and holds up (to mild scrutiny) 24 years later. We talk about Jessica's choices and the somewhat controversial place she ends up, of course.  We're still L.A. girlies at heart, but this indie comedy does make us love that magical New York from the movies.   Thank you for listening, and don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Bluesky: @MTMUGPod.bsky.social Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna

Sitting on the bank of the river with the angel, Ezekiel observes that the river brings life to everything it touches. In the Gospels, Jesus often referred to himself as living water. This wasn't just a casual use of a metaphor; it was a deliberate theological statement that connected his ministry to ancient prophetic promises.Support the show

    Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Support our mission to teach every verse of the Bible on video over the next 23 years. Read more about it here: PROJECT23 Our text today is Mark 16:15-16: “And he said to them, ‘Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.'” — Mark 16:15-16 Jesus gathered his friends one last time. The weight of the cross still hung in their minds. But now he stood alive, victorious over death. He gave them a mission: don't conceal, proclaim. Go into every town, every street, every heart, and tell the good news. Believe and be baptized. That simple call would launch the church and shock the world. God's love isn't supposed to be kept to ourselves. When we believe in Jesus, we get caught up in his story, and that story must be told. In addition, baptism is one of those acts that demonstrates our decision: we die to the old life and rise with Christ in a brand new life. Belief is personal but never private; it's powerful and public. Too often, we think the Great Commission is exclusively for pastors or missionaries. However, this command applies everywhere you go: your office, your neighborhood, and even your lunch table. Obedience is faith in motion: speaking truth in everyday moments. Your faith becomes real when you share it—when you invite someone to take that first step of belief and baptism. So, encourage belief in others today and do it yourself. ASK THIS: Who in your circle needs to hear the gospel this week? What fears keep you from starting spiritual conversations? How would your life look if you lived always “sent” instead of “sitting”? What next step can you take to show belief—either in baptism or in bold witness? DO THIS: Identify one person you can tell about Jesus by tomorrow—then send a text, make a call, or invite them for coffee and share the gospel in two sentences. PRAY THIS: Lord, give me boldness to obey your command and share the gospel without apology. Make my words clear and my heart fearless, so others can believe and be saved. Amen PLAY THIS: "Build My Life."

    In this episode of Longevity by Design, Dr. Gil Blander sits down with Dr. Keith Diaz, Associate Professor of Behavioral Medicine at Columbia University Irving Medical Center, to unpack the hidden health risks of prolonged sitting.Keith explains why even daily exercise isn't enough to counteract the effects of sedentary behavior. Drawing on his lab's findings, he shares a simple but powerful prescription: five minutes of light walking every hour. That small change can lower blood pressure, improve mood, and reduce fatigue, without needing to break a sweat.The conversation also explores how modern work and home environments are built around sitting, and what it takes to build smarter habits. From treadmill desks to family walks, Keith offers practical strategies that make movement part of everyday life. Whether you're an employer, a clinician, or just desk-bound, this episode helps you rethink how you move through your day. Guest-at-a-Glance

    Sometimes we treat doing nothing like a crime. Like we've failed somehow if we're not productive, not checking things off, not improving ourselves every waking second. But here's the truth: doing nothing isn't lazy. It's necessary.Rest isn't always sleeping or meditating or going on a wellness retreat. Sometimes, it's lying on the floor and staring at the ceiling. Scrolling without purpose. Sitting in silence with a cup of something warm. Not fixing anything. Not solving your life.And when you live with depression, even just surviving the day is a full-time job. So if all you did today was breathe, that's not nothing — that's enough.Doing nothing can be an act of quiet rebellion in a world obsessed with hustle. It's a way of saying: My worth isn't measured by my output. I'm allowed to exist without constantly performing wellness or productivity.So today, if you need it — take the pause. Unplug. Un-do. Un-become for a while. You don't owe anyone your energy, especially when you're running low.You don't need to fix yourself to be worthy.Rest isn't laziness — it's an act of self-acceptance.Doing nothing can be an art form, especially when you're struggling.Always look forward to something- no matter how small.

    “Sick and tired of being sick and tired…we want the big thing.” David Montgomery Detroit Lions Running Back  Our Pivot training camp tour continues as the 2025 NFL season is quickly approaching and we make a stop in the Motor City to catch the Lions practicing with Miami Dolphins as Detroit has been a NFC favorite last 2 years and looks at this season as the one to take care of unfinished business. Sitting with star running back duo, Jahmyr Gibbs & David Montgomery, the two-headed monster is setting the tone for the offense to play fast, gritty and compete. In a rare joint appearance, the dynamic tandem opens up to Ryan, Channing and Fred about the pressure, the chemistry, and the unfinished business driving them into the new season. Reflecting on the heartbreak of the last two seasons, including Detroit's near-miss in the NFC Championship and the emotional toll of falling just short of a Super Bowl as Jahmyr opens up on how David was the one who helped get him through the pain of a costly fumble and kept him up in a dark time. Since Jahmyr's rookie year, his explosive playmaking and Montgomery's physicality complement each other and the duo's embraced a “1A/1B” mindset over ego. Under the leadership of a new offensive coordinator,  their game plan may change but the duo said the team is ready to attack opposing defenses with more motion, more versatility, and finding ways to keep both backs involved. Their close relationship with quarterback Jared Goff and how he fits right in with them as the leader of the huddle, and maybe not earning the league-wide respect, but these two tell you exactly why Jared is the right leader for this team. Matching the fire and passion of head Coach Dan Campbell, the locker room has matured into a team that's not just hopeful — but hungry as the cultural shift has transformed Detroit from a punch line to a powerhouse. From laughs to leadership, this episode gives fans a rare, unfiltered look at two stars who aren't just sharing carries — they're sharing the weight of a city's dreams. A few weeks away from kicking off the season, the Lions are roaring to get back to the top of NFC and this year, finish it off bringing home a Lombardi Trophy. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Summer scrambled us, Slushies, from UAE to North Carolina, from D.C. to Scotland and back, from North Carolina to New York City, and to Philly, of course. Phew! Sam has just returned after a month-long residency through the Hawthornden Foundation in Scotland in an actual castle where she worked on her novel. The crew came together on Zoom to discuss two poems by Elvira Basevich, “Beautiful Girls” and “Pallas Athena”. The first poem transports Kathy and Marion to their teenage days on the Jersey shore. For Marion, the ending of the poem with its Beauty in the bathroom mirror, recalls the energy of Ada Limón's “How to Triumph like a Girl”.     The discussion of “Pallas Athena” notes the poem's foresight to mark a memory as it's made, which sends Marion to Wordsworth's Tintern Abbey and has Lisa mis-marking that poem as the one with daffodils. Imagining the future while in the past also reminds Marion of André Aciman's discussion of arbitrage and Tintern Abbey in the New Yorker. We talk about endings, Slushies, and how hard it is to nail the dismount. Last but not least, we celebrate the release of Marion's new book of poems, Gladiola Girls, with a group photo. Be sure to check out the picture to peep how Kathy's chrome manicure matches the book's color scheme.   At the table: Kathleen Volk Miller, Marion Wrenn, Samantha Neugebauer, Lisa Zerkle, and Sebastian Rametta (sound engineer)   Elvira Basevich is assistant professor of philosophy at University of California, Davis. Her first poetry collection, How to Love the World (Pank 2020), was shortlisted for the National Jewish Book Award. Her poems have recently appeared in Pleiades, On the Seawall, Diode, & The Laurel Review. Lately, she's been writing a lot about her father who returned to Russia years ago without saying goodbye.   Website:  www.elvirabasevich.com   Instagram: @elvirabasevich   BEAUTIFUL GIRLS   I used to line up with teenage girls on the boardwalk like oysters on the half shell. We kissed each other  for practice. We guessed how much nakedness we  could fit inside our mouths, swallow whole or spit out.  These are some of my best memories. Sitting on  lifeguard chairs till dusk talking about life.  Dates, gulls, the milky surf came to us, but they  had to climb a ladder to our perch. Bring an offering  of beer and cigarettes. Even then, we admitted few.  Our bodies were a salvation then, a cause for celebration, something new to smell and taste and touch every  morning, the threshold of a pagan's afterlife:  an all-you-can-eat buffet of physical pleasures. All these  years later, even without the hours of applying makeup  in the bathroom mirror, matching mesh crop tops to low risers, taking selfies, I feel so beautiful.  I don't mean that metaphorically, as in Plato's description  of a beautiful soul as a chariot pulled by two winged  horses, but the real, pulsating thing: the Beauty  who looks back from the bathroom mirror and smiles.   PALLAS ATHENA   We tracked deer in the snow, studied philosophy  and mathematics. Like you, I inherited  my father's passions: the love of war, physical beauty,  America's Funniest Home Videos. I can still hear  his laughter in a hotel in upstate New York  on our only family trip. Soviet émigrés with blue hair and adult grandchildren preferred to speak in English and eat hot dogs and hamburgers rather than piroshki and cold cuts with slivers of wobbly jellied fat. We ice skated among pine trees and rooks. Napped in cots before waiting in a buffet line  in a wood-paneled cafeteria. Pallas, that weekend  you took care of me like a big sister.  You showed me a bloom of wildflowers by  the frozen river, a dusk replete with angels,  reminders that this too won't last, but  it will become my favorite memory of my father.  That was your greatest strength: to have  the foresight to remember a moment as it faded.  You didn't judge me when I left all my doors  and windows open and called out to my father,  Come in. That sometimes we don't choose  the angels that we believe in, as a house  does not choose the ghosts who wander its halls.

    Guest Bio: Ashley and her husband, Jon, discovered Pure Desire during the devastation and erosion of their marriage due to a pornography addiction. After four years of providing Pure Desire groups for men, women, and youth at their local church, restoration has taken place. As the Associate Director of Women's Groups for Pure Desire, Ashley provides leadership and training to their Regional Group Advisors (RGAs) throughout the country. She has been instrumental in training new leaders to advance the message of hope and healing in the church and community. Ashley is a contributing author to Betrayal and Beyond; Unraveled: Managing Love, Sex, and Relationships; and Authentically You.  Show Summary: When was a time that you realized you were building an unhealthy pattern or routine? Sin can be sneaky; one choice can lead to a series of devastating habits that unravel good things in your life. Ashley Jameson felt a hurtful distance in her marriage that eventually led to her digging through her husband's phone. As she did, she discovered that he was hiding a porn addiction. Have you experienced that? Do you have a loved one in that situation?

You don't want to miss this powerful God Hears Her conversation.   Notes and Quotes:   “It is all about Jesus, but somewhere along the line, people hurt us, so we stopped believing the truth and started believing lies. We started living through this filter that we weren't supposed to be living through.” —Ashley Jameson  “We need to go back to the beginning to figure out what happened that made us stop believing what God says about us and understand our value in Christ.” —Ashley Jameson  “Bringing your mess to the church is something that is becoming more and more acceptable, but it still has so many challenges.” —Eryn Eddy Adkins  “I can't expect perfection; I can't idolize my husband. He is his own messy person with his own messy relationship with God.” —Ashley Jameson  “Give yourself space. Know that if both of you are willing to do the work, it will absolutely change. It will be radically different, and it won't always hurt as much as it does now.” —Ashley Jameson  “When God says that He can transform you by the renewing of your mind, that is very real.

    When you hear the word “homeschool,” what pops into your mind? Sitting at home all day? No friends? Endless free time? Think again. At just 11 years old and already in 10th grade, life doesn't exactly follow the usual script. Add in afternoons with show horses, flips on a parkour mat, and a journey filled with exploring new sports, diving into arts and crafts, and saying yes to anything that sparks curiosity. In this episode, we meet Kavya, who proves that homeschool doesn't mean home-bound—it means building a life full of energy, exploration, and rewriting what “school” is supposed to look like.

    There's something unique about being in a room with people who understand what you're going through—because they've lived it too.On Sunday Andy shared his story about when his life was turned upside down in 2016 when his spouse asked for a divorce. He did what many of us might do—tried to fix it, control it, hold it together. When it became clear that the relationship couldn't be salvaged, his whole life shattered. Career, identity, routines, even how often he could see his kids—it all shifted. He was left staring at what he called “broken glass.”And at first, he resisted help. Even after finding a divorce support group at a nearby church, he said no. But then a friend—who was also navigating a divorce—invited him to join. Reluctantly, he said yes. And that “yes” changed everything.“It was the most impactful thing I've ever done,” he shared. “Counseling is great, but there's nothing like sitting in a circle with people who understand your pain, who will cry with you, laugh with you, journey with you. Nothing replaces it.”Today, he leads others through the same care group that helped him heal.Care isn't always dramatic. Sometimes it's just showing up. It's delivering a meal to someone recovering from surgery. Giving a ride to a doctor's appointment when someone's in a cast. Sitting silently next to someone in grief. It's not about having all the answers—it's about being present.That's the heart behind the Ministry of Presence, a training offered to equip people to simply show up with God's heart. No clever words needed. Just presence. Just love.Care looks like this.So, what's your next step?You may be in a season where you need to receive. Or you may be ready to give. Maybe both. But no matter where you are, you're not meant to walk alone.And remember this: nothing you bring to the altar is wasted. Not your grief. Not your story. Not your healing. Not your gifts.When you bring it to God, it becomes worship. And it becomes a doorway to life for someone else.Ready to take a step toward healing or connection?
