Pastor Stephen Green delivers a message entitled "What Happens After Resurrection?"

Stephen Green delivers a message entitled "New Name New Game."

Democracy is breaking around us in real time and a small percentage of those in power would like us to become - at best - obedient subjects in a world dedicated to the destruction of ecosystems and the annihilation of compassion, empathy and all that makes us thrive.  Clearly, we are better than this. So how can we harness the astonishing wonder of human co-creation in service to life and a world where humanity thrives as part of a flourishing web of life? This week's guest, Jon Alexander started off his professional life as a highly successful advertising executive - until the inherent contradictions in the Consumer narrative led him on a new path, to seeing people as Citizens in his words, 'people who actively shape the world around us, who cultivate meaningful connections to our community and institutions, who can imagine a different and better life, and who create opportunities for others to do the same.'  This quotation comes from his book,  Citizens: Why the Key to Fixing Everything is All of Us. It's is a genuinely Thrutopian view of possibility from one of the sharpest minds, and biggest hearts in this space of all potential and I wholeheartedly encourage you to read it - knowing that it came out three years ago - and the world has changed since then.When we first mooted this conversation over six months ago, we still thought Harris was going to win the US election, that democracy was stable and that - in Jon's words - we could affect change by creating acupuncture points in the system.  And now we are where we are and none of these is possible.  And yet, the cracks are where the light gets in and this is a time when we can abandon any belief that the old system is functioning any more. So what doors does this open? What new light is there at the end of the tunnel and how do we find the agency, motivation and connections to the people and places we love, to make the changes that need to happen if we're to create that future we'd be proud to leave behind?  Jon is one of the people best placed to answer this. He's co-founder of the New Citizen Project which works to help organisations and businesses find ways to enhance Citizenship in all they do. And more recently, he helped found the Citizen Collective which we can all join and which holds regular online meetings to connect people who aspire to citizenship all around the world. This was a raw, honest conversation and neither of us is pretending we have all the answers.  But we're exploring the ideas - and Jon brings such a wealth of experience to the table to open doors for all of us.  I came away from this feeling that the routes forward are opening up. I hope you do, too.

Pastor Stephen Green delivers a message entitled "God Given Authority"

The second assassination attempt on President Trump once again highlights the incredible dangers of “chumming for monsters.” As the Irish Republican Army told U.K. Premier Margaret Thatcher after one of their bombs failed to kill the legendary Prime Minister, she had to be lucky every single time; the IRA had to be lucky only once.

Chris Hedges, a Pulitzer Prize-winning former foreign correspondent for The New York Times, finds the January 6 protestors deplorable, but says the treatment of those arrested or detained in the wake of the incident is un-American. What does it mean when a "die-hard Lefty" finds common cause with those on the right outraged about the Special Administrative Measures invoked against some of the accused?

Republican legislators in 12 states have recently passed laws and regulations requiring Kindergarten-to-3rd Grade instruction in what is now called "the science of reading" — what we used to call phonics. This contrasts with the progressive doctrine of "balanced literacy" that focuses on the "love of reading and storytelling" and finding "context clues". Memphis-Shelby County, Tennessee — with a large percentage of economically-challenged families — has taken more radical action. They added "the science of reading" to every class in the high school curriculum. Will this reversion to the wayback machine of education rescue the millions of students who can't read proficiently, or even functionally?

kio Toyoda, president of Toyota Motor Corporation, says a "silent majority" in the auto industry fears speaking against "the trend" toward replacing all internal combustion engines with electric motors.

So many ex-FBI agents worked for Twitter that they had an internal Slack channel dedicated to onboarding new former FBI staffers to the social media platform staff.

At Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientists used 192 lasers to create a brief fusion reaction that put out more energy than it took to create it. This breakthrough — decades in the making — bodes well for future power plants that generate electricity without radioactive waste, or carbon-laden exhaust. President Biden's vision of a commercial fusion power plant in 10 years, however, faces significant obstacles — not the least of which is the view of the actual scientists that it will take several times that long to achieve.

Elon Musk releases internal documents of conversations between Twitter staff and political figures, and among Twitter staff and executives, about various restrictions on accounts that allegedly violated Twitter policies. Blocking accounts that Tweeted or re-Tweeted a NY Post story about Hunter Biden's laptop — nominally under Twitter's Hacked Materials Policy — drew intense internal discussions. Subsequent episodes of the Twitter files discuss the heavily-Democratic Twitter staff's approach to controversial conservative content, and former President Donald Trump's tweets. Should House Republicans issue subpoenas, and hold hearings to probe the roots and consequences of Twitter's controversial actions?

WNBA basketball player Britney Griner returns to the USA, after 10 months in Russian custody, thanks to a Biden Administration trade for 'Merchant of Death' arms dealer Viktor Bout. What does this trade say about America's commitment to bring our own home, and what we're willing to do to fulfill that promise? Does it really matter that Griner previously called for silencing the National Anthem before games as a form of protest against police racism and brutality in the wake of George Floyd's death?

A million Americans await a decision on their applications for Social Security Disability payments. The wait time to get a decision is about 7 months, and 2-in-3 first applications get rejected.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams orders police and other city workers to move homeless persons into "psychiatric crisis" into mental hospitals, even if they don't want to go. Adams has connected the rise in subway crime to mentally ill homeless folks. Given the nation's history of de-institutionalization, is this move by a Democratic mayor likely to succeed?

Pentagon Comptroller Mike McCord said "we failed to get an 'A'" and called it "a teachable moment" that should help the department get better. Bill Whittle thinks heads should roll.

Shortly after his Twitter account got re-activated, Kanye 'Ye' West tweeted a swastika/Star of David image, and Elon Musk booted him off again. Is that the right way to deal with bigotry and anti-Semitism? Is Musk reducing the volume of hateful ideas by squelching this influential figure, or would it be more useful to allow fringe ideas free rein so that we know who the bigots are and can challenge their despicable speech in public?

Let's crack open the catalog at Kenyon College and read the course description of a 'gender studies' class. First, please fasten your head to your shoulders so it doesn't spin right off.

Starting January 1, 2023, Golden State residents may cross against the light without threat of fines. Virginia, Nevada and Kansas City, Missouri, have already deregulated jaywalking.

Apple's iOS 16.1.1 update in China disables 'Everyone' sharing via Airdrop after 10 minutes, forcing users to frequently re-enable it if they want to use it. Apple says they added this 'feature' to prevent 'unwanted' file sharing. But it's the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) that doesn't want anti-government protestors quickly sharing information with each other, off the grid and beyond the reach of CCP censors. Meanwhile, CEO Tim Cook threatens to remove Elon Musk's Twitter app from the App Store? How long will U.S. iPhone users put up with Apple's anti-free speech actions?
