Job 20:1-22:30, 2 Cor 1:1-11, Ps 40:11-17, Pr 22:2-4

Agosto 26, 2026 - La Palabra de Dios esta sobre todo gobierno, institucion y congregacion. Por ella, hombres y mujeres fueron perseguidos y muchos murieron por defender la fe. "La verdad que nos hace libres" es el mensaje que escucharemos este dia, el cual es la continuacion de la historia conocida como la Reforma. Movimiento que permitio entre varias otros temas, que la Biblia sea traducida al lenguaje que la gente podia leerla.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for August 25, 2026 is: tilde • TIL-duh • noun Tilde refers to the mark ~ placed especially over the letter n (as in the Spanish señor, meaning "sir") to denote the sound nʸ, or over vowels (as in the Portuguese irmã, meaning "sister") to indicate nasality. When a tilde appears as an independent character, it usually means "approximately" (as in "we'll be there in ~ 30 minutes"). // A familiar example of the tilde appears in the name of Brazil's capital city, São Paulo. See the entry > Examples: "Californians with accents, tildes and other diacritical marks in their names will soon be able to have their vital records accurately reflect their names." — Linh Tat, Orange County (California) Register, 30 Dec. 2025 Did you know? The terms piña colada and La Niña share more than just a "cool" factor: both are Spanish loan words whose spellings include tildes, those wavy marks which in these examples are placed over the letter n to indicate a blend of the sounds of n and y. Tilde is itself a Spanish borrowing rooted in the Latin titulus, an ancestor of the English words title and titular that means "title" or "inscription." The Spanish and English applications of tilde are distinct. In Spanish, tilde refers most commonly to the accent symbol, while ñ is its own member of the alphabet (pronounced "EN-yay"). In contrast, English speakers use tilde specifically for the aforementioned mark. In addition to functioning as a diacritic—that is, a mark paired with a character to indicate pronunciation—the tilde may be used as an independent character to indicate approximation, negation in logic, or similarity in mathematics.

This week Kristin and I get into "Ozempic face," which has been all over social media, and I break down what's actually happening medically when people lose facial fat quickly on GLP-1 medications. Kristin gets grossed out the moment I bring up orbital fat, so we go down a whole rabbit hole about fat pads, blepharoplasty, and why your eyes need that squishy cushion behind them. I also share something newer in ophthalmology: GLP-1 medications are now considered a rare but real risk factor for a type of vision loss called ischemic optic neuropathy. Then we get into a story from a Cake concert I took our kids to while Kristin was out of town, where our teenage daughter and her friend somehow knew every word to a Black Sabbath cover better than half the adults in the crowd (genuine proud dad moment). After the break, I keep working on my medical Spanish with more phrases sent in by a listener, and Kristin does her best to correct my pronunciation.  Takeaways: "Ozempic face" refers to the hollowing and sagging that can happen when someone loses facial fat quickly on GLP-1 medications, it's a side effect of rapid fat loss, not a direct effect of the drug itself. Facial fat loss on GLP-1s can also affect the fat pad behind the eye, which may contribute to a more sunken appearance around the eyes. GLP-1 medications are now considered a risk factor for ischemic optic neuropathy, a rare condition involving reduced blood flow to the optic nerve, though the overall risk remains very low. Orbital fat plays an important structural role in cushioning and supporting the eye, and its loss or migration can contribute to changes like under-eye bags or a sunken appearance. Learning key medical Spanish phrases, even imperfectly, can help physicians communicate more effectively with Spanish-speaking patients. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

I stopped opening video editors. I talk to Claude, and the videos come out finished.In this video, I break down my AI content factory: the exact 5-step method I use to turn one folder of raw content into finished, publish-ready videos. Then I show it live. Five minutes before a call, I sent Claude one prompt, typos and all. It found the right clip, added the correct date for every city, and burned in French, Spanish, and Hungarian subtitles. Four videos, four languages, zero editing apps. Native speakers have approved 100% of the translations so far.The 5 steps:1. Put your files in one folder on a drive2. Give the AI access to that folder3. Hand it the brand: the colors, the fonts, the logo, the actual hex codes4. Say what you want and what you don't. The don't list separates usable output from garbage5.

What if a few simple mental models could help you spot costly mistakes before they happen and make better decisions under pressure?   Construction leaders make decisions every day with incomplete information, competing priorities, limited capacity, and consequences that may not become obvious for months or even years. Developing better mental models can help you challenge assumptions, recognize blind spots, understand incentives, calculate risk, and make smarter decisions when there isn't an obvious right answer.   Drawing on the wisdom of Charlie Munger, Bradley Hartmann breaks down 13 mental models and shows how they apply to leadership, decision-making, and building a stronger construction business.   In this episode you'll discover: ·       How inversion, second-order thinking, and learning from mistakes can help you anticipate problems before they become expensive. ·       How understanding your circle of competence, opportunity costs, and margin of safety can lead to smarter decisions about growth, capacity, and risk. ·       How incentives, probabilistic thinking, compound interest, and a latticework of mental models can help you build stronger teams and make better long-term decisions.   Play the episode to learn 13 practical mental models you can start using to reduce blind spots, avoid preventable mistakes, and make better decisions as a construction leader.   Download Charlie Munger's Top 13 Lattice Work of Mental Models Download The Better Decisions App   At Bradley Hartmann & Company, we help construction teams improve sales, leadership,  and communication by reducing miscommunication, strengthening teamwork, and bridging language gaps between English and Spanish speakers.

Agosto 25, 2026 - Los cambios no llegan simplemente con buenas intensiones, o con palabras bonitas. Para lograrlos se requiere de hombres y mujeres que vivan para Dios. "Puede una Persona Hacer la Diferencia?", es la pregunta y a la vez la nueva serie que le ofrecemos. Para responder a esta interrogante el pastor Carlos nos presentara a tres personajes que marcaron un discurso revolucionario en la epoca conocida como la reforma.

It's a hotshot Triple Threat match as Scott, Markkus, and Dave battle it out, where the champ does not have to be pinned to lose his title.

Banks spend millions on carbon footprint. Banks have an engagement problem. Something is not working! This week I speak with Mathias Boissonot, Founder and CEO of Handprint and he makes a commercial case for a different model: instead of tracking what your customers do wrong, quantify what they're building right.Handprint powers ocean regeneration programs for banks like DBS, including coral reef restoration and mangrove planting that customers own, watch grow, and choose to fund with their spend. The result isn't just goodwill. It's an 875% increase in customer engagement compared to legacy carbon programs, and $23 million a year in verified ecosystem value returned to society.We get into why Mathias measures success by a metric most founders have never heard of: the "phoenix" over the unicorn, and the sales and founder lessons he's learned building the company from scratch.What you'll learnWhy carbon offsetting and "your carbon footprint" features fail to change customer behavior, and what the psychology actually isThe handprint model: quantifying positive impact instead of negative impact, and why that flips the entire customer relationshipHow banks turn nature engagement into a growth engine: referral programs with co-owned impact, nature cashback instead of standard cashbackWhy 62% of customers would switch banks over purpose misalignment, and 52% already haveThe phoenix metric: measuring company success in ecosystem value generated, not just valuationMathias's biggest founder mistakes, and the best sales advice he's ever received: "implicate the pain"Timestamps00:00 — Cold open: has carbon offsetting failed?04:40 — What Handprint actually does06:55 — Phoenix vs. unicorn: a new metric for success09:00 — $23 million in ecosystem value, every year18:30 — Why donation and carbon-guilt features don't work24:40 — Kill the cashback war: nature cashback instead27:30 — From cost center to growth engine: the 875% number32:30 — Building a company from Bali35:30 — Every mistake we could have made, we've made41:35 — Implicate the pain: the best sales advice he's received44:00 — Resilience, mindset, and having fun in the painConnect with Mathias:

In this incredibly powerful and deeply personal episode, we sit down with Ray, a 60-year-old former third-generation Jehovah's Witness who shares his dramatic journey out of a high-control system. Though he successfully faded from the religion in his early twenties to live a vibrant life in San Francisco as a hair stylist, Ray made the decision to return at age 30, seeking a "safe" and community-centered environment to raise a family. Over the next two decades, Ray ran a highly popular Modesto hair salon, operating as a self-described "publisher seat warmer" who managed to avoid congregational duties—going door-to-door only once in 22 years of marriage—while simultaneously organizing active youth groups and building a warm, social haven in his own backyard. However, the safe facade crumbled when Ray allowed himself to deconstruct the doctrines. He spent over $10,000 on rare, historical Watchtower literature, keeping the boxes hidden in his hair salon office where he stayed up late verifying the organization's chronological errors and historical cover-ups. This forbidden research led to a grueling eight-hour judicial committee for apostasy where his closest friends and barber-chair clients testified against him, followed by a tragic, unnecessary family loss under the strict blood transfusion doctrine. Ultimately forced to fake a moral transgression using "theocratic warfare" just to free his wife for an unscriptural divorce, Ray hit rock bottom before finding true autonomy. Today, Ray shares how he reclaimed his identity at age 60, ran marathons, and built an authentic, chosen family based on genuine, unconditional love. Key Takeaways The $10,000 Secret Library: To prove to himself whether "the truth" was actually true, Ray ordered and hid tubs of old Watchtower publications, Rutherford books, and historical files in his salon office to verify the organization's shifting prophetic timelines (like 1914, 1925, and 1975). An Eight-Hour Inquisition: When the elders caught wind of his questioning, they subjected him to a marathon eight-hour trial where his lifelong friends and hair clients testified that brief, five-minute salon chats had "shook their faith". The Lethal Blood Transfusion Doctrine: Ray shares the devastating, heartbreaking loss of his 22-year-old nephew, a promising young musician who tragically died of a treatable chest tumor after his family adhered to the organization's ban on blood transfusions. A "Theocratic Warfare" Trap: Desperate to give his pioneering wife scriptural grounds for divorce without destroying her spiritual standing, Ray faked a one-night-stand confession, only for the elders to ignore his "repentance loop" and disfellowship him in just 20 minutes. Unconditional Love and a Jumbotron Proposal: Despite calling the suicide hotline twice during his lowest points, Ray successfully deconstructed. He is now thriving alongside his partner Destiny (also an ex-JW) and planning a surprise proposal on the San Francisco Giants' Jumbotron. Direct Quotes "When you find out that the truth is not the truth, the only thing to compare it to is finding out your mom's not your real mom." "Leaving a cult is a new beginning on a path to healing, not some magical end itself." "I just want to be the best dad, the best husband, the best son… and just make this time count." Resources Mentioned Santos Bonacci's "Astrotheology and the Bible" (Two-hour video that heavily triggered Ray's biblical deconstruction).

Guest Bio Ray is a 60-year-old former third-generation Jehovah's Witness, father, and salon owner who courageously reclaimed his life after spending decades within a high-control religious environment. Now happily free and running marathons, he lives in California with his partner Destiny and his thriving, authentic children.

Mi gente, this one is going to trigger you — in the best way. This week I'm sitting down with Denise Soler Cox, a cultural excavator, award-winning filmmaker, keynote speaker, and author who's spent the last decade going inside the cultures that shape how we lead, belong, and become who we are. After speaking on stage, women kept pulling Denise aside to share secrets they'd never told anyone. From this, Denise began to realize the cultural rules keeping Latina leaders shrinking and sidelined — and how to finally cut them out. Throughout the conversation, Jannese and Denise get into it: the two conflicting rules about money most of us grew up with (don't talk about it when it's bad, don't talk about it when it's good — and what that silence actually costs us), why corporate America rewards "polished" over honest, the hardest chapter Denise had to write (her relationship with her mom), boundaries, the "no contact" pendulum, and why the book is releasing in English and Spanish on the same day.WE GET INTO:01:50 – Origin story: Being Enye and the 17-year wait to make it04:36 – How backstage confessions became a book about 10 taboos09:31 – Corporate polish vs. real authenticity11:56 – Cultural rules around what emotions are "acceptable"16:10 – The two conflicting rules about money19:20 – "Thermal equilibrium": the cold rooms in our families21:06 – "White people problems" and the guilt of making more money24:26 – Becoming the villain of the family story27:32 – No contact vs. the hard conversation31:33 – Gratitude vs. losing your ambition34:04 – The hardest chapter to write: her mom40:00 – Why the book releases in English and Spanish the same day41:59 – What women should feel comfortable saying out loud44:14 – Pay transparency and speaker rate shame47:09 – Fill in the blank: what makes Latinas financially unstoppable50:30 – Where to find Denise, the film, and the bookKEY TAKEAWAYS: → The rule of staying silent about money — whether things are good or bad — costs Latinas real dollars and real validation from the people who love us most→ "Thermal equilibrium": some family topics stay frozen forever unless someone actively warms them up→ The people who get upset when you set a boundary are usually the ones who benefited from you not having one→ Corporate spaces reward "polished" — but the realest, most transformational work happens when you stop performing→ Healing happens in community, not isolation — which is exactly why this book and this podcast exist→ Pay transparency (rates, salaries, what you charge) is one of the taboos most worth breaking first→ Ambition and gratitude aren't opposites — you're allowed to hold bothCONNECT WITH DENISE:Website: denisesolercox.com/ Book: https://denisesolercox.com/book Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/denisesolercox TAKE THE NEXT STEP WITH YO QUIERO DINERO:

Dr. Kat continues to work virtually with clients across California.  Show Highlights: How Dr. Kat's first pregnancy, even though planned and easy, resulted in a long, difficult labor that jump-started postpartum depression, anxiety, and OCD Why new moms struggle to know what's normal, not normal, too much, or not enough How feeling inadequate and incompetent as a new mom was part of Dr. Kat's anxiety and her battle with perfectionism How she felt alone and disconnected even from her husband, and NO ONE knew what was happening on the inside How scary intrusive thoughts put her in emotional turmoil Why shame and stigma are greater for mental health professionals–and will silence them at times How Dr. Kat carried on her therapy work with clients as the depression grew, making her feel trapped, exhausted, embarrassed, and confused How finally taking the PHQ-9 depression screening test for herself finally opened her eyes to the truth of what she was going through How she shut down even with her therapist and turned to a naturopathic physician, acupuncture, and other healing alternatives Why therapists MUST address the suffering client in front of them with curiosity and questions Why Dr. Kat is so deeply driven to help other moms break through and find the help and support to know that THEY WILL BE OK Resources: Connect with Karen: ⁠Website⁠,⁠ Twitter⁠,⁠ Instagram⁠,⁠ Facebook⁠,⁠ Book: Good Moms Have Scary Thoughts⁠ and⁠ LinkedIn⁠ Check out Karen Kleiman's other books: ⁠Website⁠ and⁠ Amazon⁠.

What if becoming a better spearo had less to do with diving deeper or buying better gear—and more to do with learning how to actually see what's happening around you? In this episode, Shrek sits down with commercial fisherman, spearo, hunter and lifelong observer of the natural world Johnny Mitchell, with Johnny's longtime mate Tim McDonald joining the conversation. Johnny has spent decades living, fishing, hunting and observing in the bush and on the water. From commercially chasing Spanish mackerel and mud crabs to living out of a swag, caretaking Cape Capricorn lighthouse and spending countless hours simply watching animals behave, he has developed an extraordinary ability to recognise patterns in the natural world. The conversation explores awareness, natural intelligence, tides, weather, animal behaviour, sensory awareness and pattern recognition—and why asking simplistic questions like "Is the full moon better?" or "Does falling barometric pressure make fish bite?" can actually hold back your learning. Johnny explains why every productive fishing or spearfishing location has its own combination of features and conditions, and why the better question is often: Why were the fish here today—and why weren't they here yesterday? Tim also shares how Johnny's influence has completely changed the way he approaches spearfishing: shooting fewer fish, observing more, recognising short feeding windows and learning to know where to be, when to be there and why. This one goes well beyond spearfishing. It's a conversation about reconnecting with the natural world, waking up dulled senses and becoming less dependent on apps, assumptions and handed-down rules.

“Between Christmas 2003 and New Year 2024, packages of cocaine started washing up along the beaches of Southwest France. National television news reports carried the story of the coke de la plage — the beach cocaine, around a month after the first local rumours of finds emerged. One TV report on France 2, 30th Jan 2004, stated one-and-a-half tonnes had been recovered along French and Spanish coasts that month. If that's just what the authorities had found, it's safe to assume lots, lots more had been picked up by members of the public, mostly surfers.” - Paul Evans. Our guest this week is WSL commentator, Surf Europe editor, Stab contributor, and, as of a couple of weeks ago, the creator, producer and host of a long-form narrative podcast about cocaine. It was late 2003, and Paul had recently moved to southwest France from the UK, initially seduced by the prospect of good, uncrowded waves and rumours of mystics like Tom Curren and Robbie Page having made a life there. A few months later, bundles of pure Colombian cocaine started washing up on the beach. Paul first heard about it from a hitchhiker he picked up. The man had travelled several hundred kilometres from Toulouse and seemed remarkably determined to reach the coast that day, despite the weather. It had something of the sirens about it: a gift from the sea that was difficult to resist. Only here, instead of a beautiful song and certain death, it was exceptionally pure cocaine washing up on the beach, floating around in the lineup, offering a direct challenge to your capacity for restraint. What followed was a summer of abundance, debauchery, good waves and various forms of personal ruin, eventually building to a crescendo at the Quiksilver Pro France in 2004. The waves were pumping. Bruce and Andy Irons met in the final. The afterparty that followed, you'd have to imagine, given the situation and what was essentially being handed out to all, was fairly substantial. As Paul says in the podcast: “It's kind of cliché… everyone refers to their youth as the best times in the world, but objectively, some of those people are right.” If you're partial to good, uncrowded waves, a cacophony of beautiful women, and happen to possess even a passing curiosity about the sensation of your mouth going numb after sampling some uncut Colombian cocaine, then you'd have a hard time arguing against this as a purple patch in the history of mankind. Humanity has definitely had worse summers and here, Paul talks about how he went about telling that story. This is the making of Hossegor Beach Cocaine, told by its creator, Paul Evans. his is the making of Hossegor Beach Cocaine, told by its creator, Paul Evans.

Bonus Episode #74 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan reviews Duskfade, the throwback 3D action-platformer from Spanish studio Weird Beluga and publisher Fireshine Games, out now on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch 2. In a clockwork world called Tearfeld that's been dropped into endless night by a mysterious Clock Tower, you play as Zirian, a young workshop apprentice who grabs his grandfather's clock-hand blade, teams up with a mechanical bird named Cuckoo, and sets out to rescue his sister and get time moving again. This Musical Review takes a long look at the momentum-driven platforming and the way jumps, grappling, gliding, and rail grinding chain into something joyful, the combat and imaginative boss battles, the storybook realms that stretch from leafy forests to drowned depths to floating heights, and the earnest coming-of-age story sitting underneath all that color. Bryan spends plenty of time on the game's proud Kingdom Hearts inspiration, the Spanish folklore woven into its world, and above all the sweeping, wistful score from composer Rafa del Olmo, breaking down how its recurring melodies and shifting moods do so much of the heavy lifting in capturing that particular PS2-era magic.

Why does mainstream history completely erase the stories of the Indigenous leaders who actively fought back against European conquest? How did the fluid, complex politics of the Caribbean reshape global history long before the fall of the Aztecs and Incas ? In this episode of Varn Vlog, we sit down with historical researcher and novelist Andrew Rowen to explore the unsparing, bicultural reality of ground zero in the Americas. Andrew Rowen has spent over a decade parsing through dense anthropological records and reading between the lines of heavily biased Spanish primary sources to reconstruct the authentic perspective of the Taino people. In this deep-dive conversation, Andrew illuminates the life of Anacaona—a shrewd, competent ruler, poetess, and the first female Native American chieftain to resist the Spanish conquest. We explore her brilliant and tragic political strategies of separate coexistence, tracking how her chiefdom leveraged food logistics and made uneasy alliances with Spanish mutineers to stave off total annihilation. We also turn the lens toward the European side of the equation, dissecting the conflicting motivations of Christopher Columbus and Queen Isabella. Rowen traces Isabella's internal journey of conscience regarding the enslavement of her Indigenous "vassals," , contrast to the craven extraction methods of the commoner conquistadors who disobeyed her orders to establish the roots of centuries-long forced labor networks like repartimiento and encomienda. Finally, we confront the raw data behind the catastrophic Indigenous population collapse—sorting through the realities of forced gold mining slavery and the merciless spread of European diseases like smallpox and typhus . If you want an objective, unromanticized framework for how the transatlantic world was truly forged, this bicultural breakdown is an absolute must-watch.  Explore Andrew Rowen's acclaimed historical novel series (Encounters Unforeseen, Columbus and the Caonabó, and Isabel Anacaona and Columbus's Demise) on AndrewRowen.com! Send us Fan Mail Musis by Bitterlake, Used with Permission, all rights to BitterlakeSupport the showCrew:Host: C.

Today's story: Scientists at the University of Minnesota built a synthetic cell entirely from non-living chemical ingredients. Called SpudCell, it can absorb nutrients, copy its genetic code, divide into two, and even show natural selection over several generations. However, it still depends on scientists to supply key cellular machinery, cannot reproduce forever, and does not always pass on a complete set of DNA. Researchers hope this fully documented cell will help them understand how life works and eventually develop engineered cells that can produce fuels, plastics, or medicines.

Mientras nos preparamos para la segunda mitad del año de El Sonido: Cancioneros, abrimos los archivos oficiales de KEXP para revisitar algunas de las sesiones Live on KEXP más memorables de artistas latinoamericanos, iberoamericanos y caribeños que han pasado por nuestros estudios. En este octavo episodio viajamos a Chile de la mano de Javiera Mena, una de las figuras pioneras y fundamentales del pop electrónico latinoamericano. En 2006, Mena lanzó su álbum debut, Esquemas Juveniles, un disco que ayudó a definir una nueva sensibilidad para el pop independiente en español, combinando sintetizadores, melodías pop, intimidad y música de baile. Canciones como “Sol de Invierno”, “Esquemas Juveniles” y “Cámara Lenta” se convirtieron en parte del cancionero de una generación y consolidaron a Mena como una de las voces centrales de la escena independiente chilena de los años 2000. En 2026, mientras Esquemas Juveniles celebra su vigésimo aniversario, regresamos a esta sesión de 2017 para revisitar la obra de una artista cuya influencia continúa atravesando generaciones del pop electrónico latinoamericano. Suscríbete al canal de KEXP Podcasts en YouTube para disfrutar de estos episodios especiales en video con subtítulos en inglés y español. Una producción original de KEXP en español.

In this eighth episode, we travel to Chile through Javiera Mena, one of the pioneering and defining figures of Latin American electronic pop. In 2006, Mena released her debut album, Esquemas Juveniles, a record that helped shape a new sensibility for independent Spanish-language pop. The album brought together synthesizers, pop melodies, intimacy, and dance music. Songs including “Sol de Invierno,” “Esquemas Juveniles,” and “Cámara Lenta” became part of the soundtrack of a generation and established Mena as a central voice in Chile's independent music scene of the 2000s. Recorded live at KEXP in Seattle in 2017, between the Otra Era period and the release of Espejo, this session captures a pivotal moment in Javiera Mena's artistic evolution. In 2026, as Esquemas Juveniles celebrates its 20th anniversary, we return to this performance to revisit the work of an artist whose influence continues to resonate across generations of Latin American electronic pop.

In this episode of Business Legacy Podcast, Paul Dio sits down with Daniel Boettcher, founder of The Intrepid Wendell, for one of the most quietly extraordinary conversations the show has produced. Daniel is an attorney, a gemologist, a polyglot, and a jeweler — not because he planned to be, but because an illness redirected a career pointed at the U.S. State Department, and a bitterly cold February day in Antwerp introduced him to the diamond trade through a private club above a cigar lounge. Daniel explains what he actually does, and it takes a minute to fully land. He doesn't just make jewelry. He listens to someone's history — their loves, their losses, their origin stories, the things they want to reach across time to say — and then he represents that history in an object. The pilot who wanted to divide his ring into four pieces, one for each child, so that the thing that touched his skin every day could touch theirs after he was gone. The couple who met in a sunflower field in Kansas and knew immediately — her engagement ring is a sunflower, because sunflowers always point toward the light even on an overcast day. The conversation moves through Daniel's remarkable range. Growing up a polyglot and the way different languages carry different flavors — Spanish for emotion and poetry, English for calendars and formulas, and the Spanglish of Puerto Rico squishing both together into something new. The challenge of getting clients to trust him with their histories, because the histories are where the real work begins. The ocean crossing from Tokyo to Anchorage he took in May that gave him the vertical perspective he needs to stay functional in a scatterplot life. The episode closes on legacy — both the one Daniel builds for others and the one he's quietly building for himself. A mentorship philosophy. A preservation organization he's starting in Old San Juan to privately fund the repair of bronze sculptures and 1892 tablets that the politics of historic preservation keep leaving unattended. He doesn't need his name on it. He just wants the statues to still be there.

The second life we explore in our series about the twentieth-century philosophers could not be more different from the first: David talks to philosopher Alex Carter about Simone Weil, who died aged just thirty-four and lived through much political and personal hardship, some of it self-inflicted. How did her asceticism inform her philosophical outlook? Why did she believe she needed to work in a factory and fight in the Spanish civil war to be true to her beliefs? When and how does her philosophy morph into theology? Was she a saint?   You can find out everything you need to know about this podcast – who we are, what we do, plus upcoming events and full lists of all episodes including PPF+ bonus episodes on our website https://www.ppfideas.com   Next time in The Lives of the Philosophers: Albert Camus Learn more about your ad choices.

Full Text of Readings Twenty-first Sunday in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 121 The Saint of the day is Saint Rose of Lima Saint Rose of Lima's Story The first canonized saint of the New World has one characteristic of all saints—the suffering of opposition—and another characteristic which is more for admiration than for imitation—excessive practice of mortification. Rose of Lima was born to parents of Spanish descent in Lima, Peru, at a time when South America was in its first century of evangelization. She seems to have taken Catherine of Siena as a model, in spite of the objections and ridicule of parents and friends. The saints have so great a love of God that what seems bizarre to us, and is indeed sometimes imprudent, is simply a logical carrying out of a conviction that anything that might endanger a loving relationship with God must be rooted out. So, because her beauty was so often admired, Rose used to rub her face with pepper to produce disfiguring blotches. Later, she wore a thick circlet of silver on her head, studded on the inside, like a crown of thorns. When Rose of Lima's parents fell into financial trouble, she worked in the garden all day and sewed at night. Ten years of struggle against her parents began when they tried to make Rose marry. They refused to let her enter a convent, and out of obedience she continued her life of penance and solitude at home as a member of the Third Order of Saint Dominic. So deep was her desire to live the life of Christ that she spent most of her time at home in solitude. During the last few years of her life, Rose of Lima set up a room in the house where she cared for homeless children, the elderly, and the sick. This was a beginning of social services in Peru. Though secluded in life and activity, she was brought to the attention of Inquisition interrogators, who could only say that she was influenced by grace. What might have been a merely eccentric life was transfigured from the inside. If we remember some unusual penances, we should also remember the greatest thing about Rose of Lima: a love of God so ardent that it withstood ridicule from without, violent temptation, and lengthy periods of sickness. When she died at 31, the city turned out for her funeral. Prominent men took turns carrying her coffin. Reflection It is easy to dismiss excessive penances of the saints as the expression of a certain culture or temperament. But a woman wearing a crown of thorns may at least prod our consciences. We enjoy the most comfort-oriented life in human history. We eat too much, drink too much, use a million gadgets, fill our eyes and ears with everything imaginable. Commerce thrives on creating useless needs on which to spend our money. It seems that when we have become most like slaves, there is the greatest talk of “freedom.” Are we willing to discipline ourselves in such an atmosphere?Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media
