Bible Verse of the Day: "For the Word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart." – Hebrews 4:12 How Is the Word of God Living and Active? (Hebrews 4:12) Hebrews 4:12 reminds us that Scripture is not just ink on a page but a living, active force in the lives of believers. Unlike human words or philosophies, God’s Word is constantly at work—penetrating, discerning, and transforming us. The imagery of a “two-edged sword” underscores Scripture’s precision. It cuts deep, revealing hidden motivations and exposing the true state of our hearts. Nothing is beyond its reach—not our thoughts, not our intentions, not even the parts of us we try to keep hidden. This verse also carries both comfort and challenge. Comfort, because God’s Word brings life, direction, and encouragement. Challenge, because it confronts us with truth, reminding us that nothing is hidden from God’s gaze. The call is clear: approach His Word with humility, letting it shape us into people who live in step with His will. Daily Meditation God’s Word is alive, speaking across all times and cultures. It penetrates beyond outward behavior, reaching our deepest thoughts and motives. Scripture is an instrument of both encouragement and correction. Through the Word, we encounter God’s presence and align with His purposes. Let’s Pray Father, I come to You honestly—sometimes my heart feels distant, and my excitement for Your Word fades beneath the weight of life’s distractions. But I know Your Word is living and powerful, and I long for that closeness again. Please rekindle a deep passion within me to seek You through Scripture. Open my eyes to see the beauty, truth, and life in every page. Stir my spirit with fresh hunger to know You more and to treasure Your voice above all else. Lord, forgive me for the times I’ve treated Your Word casually or out of routine. Help me approach it with awe and expectation, knowing that You are ready to speak each time I open my Bible. Let my heart burn with joy and wonder as I encounter You in new ways. Teach me to delight in Your truth and to let it transform me daily.In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Mammon is frequently a behind-the-scenes god. The celebrity goddess has an impressive sacred space dedicated to her, which cost a lot of money, but that was just the investment, the outlay. The returns come in the form of the merch. The sacred space was there on the hill, but going in or coming out you would be likely to walk past the Stoa, where the T-shirts and knick-knacks were for sale.We have already discussed the economics of grace, but here we see it on full display. The overture was the burning of the occult materials. The full performance was the spectacle of rioting merchants.

So often when people go on a fat loss mission, they can accidentally lose muscle at the same time. It does not have to be this way. They also discuss the confusing topic of whether prolonged overnight fasts are helpful or harmful for women and why.

Chill overnight for a ready-made drink Method: Brew your coffee. Combine coffee with protein powder (and optional ingredients) in a blender—blending ensures smooth texture and better absorption . Blend until frothy and well-mixed. Enjoy within 30–60 minutes of waking—it aligns with natural cortisol rhythms, helping stabilize energy and support muscle protein synthesis . Why This Recipe Works for Women Sustainable energy + less crash: Combining protein with caffeine helps blunt cortisol spikes and prevents those shaky jittery responses we often get from coffee alone . Muscle preservation + training support: Leucine-rich protein early in the day supports muscle recovery and metabolism—especially important for active women or those navigating hormonal transitions . Hormone-friendly routine: Enjoying protein coffee as soon as you wake sets a physiological tone of “fed and safe,” which can improve energy, reduce cravings, and enhance mood—less fatigue, more focus.

Stir together 1 - 1 1/2 c ginger beer to 1 shot bourbonAdd herbal syrup (below) to taste (optional)Garnish with fresh lemon balm, basil, or mint: lightly crush or roll before adding to the cocktail for maximum flavor Herbal syrup (makes about 1 quart): Combine 2 c sugar to 2 c water with a pinch of salt in a medium saucepan. Add 1-2 c packed fresh herbs, depending how strong you'd like it (like basil, mint, lemon balm, or mountain mint). Simmer on M/L for 10-15 minutes or until aromatic and flavorful. Cool and store in the fridge in an airtight container. Catwings Cocktail (tailor made by Julia!) This cocktail has a few steps, but I promise they're worth it: And you can batch out the syrup and tea by doubling or tripling the recipe to make these for a group or to keep the ingredients on hand in the fridge (where they'll last a week). The tea can be nice on its own, and any leftover syrup is perfect for adding to coffee or other beverages or drizzling on desserts. For a non-alcoholic version, swap in your favorite NA gin, or try this sea buckthorn-based NA spirit. Makes 4 cocktails For the herbal tea:(Note: you may not have all these dried herbs available. If not, just use 1/4-1/2 tsp catnip and 1 tsp chamomile. Or, just a chamomile tea bag). · 1/4 tsp dried catnip· 1/4 tsp dried chamomile flower· 1/4 tsp Angelica root· 1/4 tsp elecampene Steep the herbs in 3/4 c hot water for 10-12 minutes. Strain and cool completely. For the lemon balm syrup: (Note: You can play with other herbs you like here too, catnip, mountain mint, and/or basil might be fun choices depending on your tastes and what's available). · 1 packed cup fresh lemon balm leaves· 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar· 2/3 c water· pinch salt· 1 c sugar Heat all ingredients together over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. Simmer for 10-15 minutes or until fragrant and flavorful. Remove from heat, then cool completely and strain. For the cocktail · Divide the herbal tea across 4 rocks glasses (add ice, if desired)· Add 1 shot gin to each glass· Add 1 shot of syrup to each glass and stir· Top with sparkling wine or soda water to taste.· Garnish with fresh lemon balm, if desired.In this EpisodeSteering the Craft by Ursula Le Guin

Should his new girlfriend be upset with her man OR his ex???

The widow of Charlie Kirk, a right-wing political activist in the US, says she will never let his legacy die. She said her cries would echo around the world like a battle cry. Charlie Kirk was President Donald Trump's bridge to young Republicans. We ask if his death is likely to aggravate political tension in the US? Also in the programme: a Qatari official, Majed Al Ansari, tells the BBC that his country remains on high alert as the government cannot rule out another Israeli strike; and the three Austrian nuns who refuse to stay in their old peoples' home.Photo: Charlie Kirk with his wife, Erika Kirk, celebrating Trump's inauguration in Washington, D.C., in January Credit: Getty

Do you feel like you've been wandering for too long? Have you been searching for someone or something to make you feel held in this world? What if the secret was not “out there” but somewhere much closer to home? It's easy to feel like a weary traveler on this journey of life, but there are ways we can nourish ourselves and “come home” to our own divinity. As we wander through the late summer woods, consider how life might look if you finally let the weary traveler within properly rest. What am I reading?How to Read a Book by Monica Wood https://bookshop.org/a/111301/9780063243675The Girl Who Baptized Herself: How a Lost Scripture About a Saint Named Thecla Reveals the Power of Knowing Our Worth by Meghan Wattersonhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9780593595008https://bookshop.org/shop/witchywomanwalkingWhat's playing on repeat?Medicine Woman by Qveen HerbyWhat's for dinner?Creamy Pumpkin Gnocci Ingredients:Pumpkin gnocci ButterOlive oilOnionsGarlic1/2 cup broth1/2 cup milk (your choice)1/2 cup half & half  (or use one can of coconut milk) Chopped spinachFresh dillSalt and pepperRed pepper flakes Freshly grated Parmesan cheese Instructions: Caramelize onions in one tablespoon butter and olive oil.

With the price of food we can't afford to waste even a bit! Leeks are fat right now and if you're someone who discards a lot of the green part, listen up. Here's some fab ways to use them. Crispy Leek Topping Thinly slice the green leek tops. Rinse in a bowl of cold water to get any dirt out. Transfer to a towel and pat dry. Heat a pan to medium, then add in 1 tbsp each of butter and oil. Shallow fry until slightly browned and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. You could add some thyme or tarragon towards the end of cooking. Transfer to a plate and season with salt and pepper. Use as topper for fish, risotto, salads or cool completely and stir into softened butter to butter crusty bread with. Softened Leek Compote Chop green part of leek into 1-2 cm lengths. Melt 3 tbsp butter plus 1 tbsp of oil in pan. Add the leeks, cover and cook on medium for 20 minutes. Add in a crushed garlic clove, zest from half a lemon, a splash of white wine and ½ tsp sea salt and pepper. Continue cooking for 15-20 more minutes or until the leeks are meltingly soft. Season to taste. Stir through pasta along with a handful of grated parmesan, serve on toast (maybe add a dollop of sour cream), smear over a pizza base and top with bacon and cheese for a ‘blanc pizza', or loosen with some hot stock and treat as you would a soup. Other uses: Add them to a cheesy quiche / tart. Omelettes love leeks. Saute with mushrooms. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Since Starbucks opened its first store in Seattle in 1971, coffee shops have become a staple in nearly every city. In Berkeley, California there are approximately 59 coffee shops, resulting in one coffee shop for every 2,000+ residents, which is a higher ratio than Seattle. New York City has more coffee shops per capita than any other American city. When I read those numbers, I naturally thought to myself how do they all stay in business? How does each coffee shop or chain distinguish itself from its competitors? Katie Jenkins, Owner and Executive Director of Grace Therapy Center and Stir, has taken a thoughtful approach to business competition and growth. Grace Therapy Center is a clinic for children with autism and other developmental differences that Katie started in 2021. Now with three locations, Grace Therapy Clinic offers applied behavior analysis therapy (otherwise known as ABA) for indiividual children, children in social groups and at summer camps. Of all the positioning possibilities you could imagine for opening a coffee shop, tieing it to a series of specialty autism clinics isn't something even the folks at Starbucks or coffee shops in California or New York have thought of. But that's exactly what Katie Jenkins is doing with Stir Cofffee House on Airline Highway here in Baton Rouge. Stir employs Katie's child clients who mature and are old enough to join the workforce. The coffee industry is responsible for more than 2.2 million U.S. jobs and generates more than $100 billion in wages per year. Over the years, we’ve had several guests on Out to Lunch who have contributed to the coffee industry’s success locally. By providing job opportunities at Stir to those who might struggle to find traditional work because of their intellectual and developmental disabilities, Katie Jenkins is not only contributing to the coffee industry’s success in Baton Rouge but she's providing invaluable work and life experiences for her clients at Grace Therapy Center. Out to Lunch is recorded live over lunch at Mansurs on the Boulevard.

Bible Verse of the Day: "For the Word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart." – Hebrews 4:12 How Is the Word of God Living and Active? (Hebrews 4:12) Hebrews 4:12 reminds us that Scripture is not just ink on a page but a living, active force in the lives of believers. Unlike human words or philosophies, God’s Word is constantly at work—penetrating, discerning, and transforming us. The imagery of a “two-edged sword” underscores Scripture’s precision. It cuts deep, revealing hidden motivations and exposing the true state of our hearts. Nothing is beyond its reach—not our thoughts, not our intentions, not even the parts of us we try to keep hidden. This verse also carries both comfort and challenge. Comfort, because God’s Word brings life, direction, and encouragement. Challenge, because it confronts us with truth, reminding us that nothing is hidden from God’s gaze. The call is clear: approach His Word with humility, letting it shape us into people who live in step with His will. Daily Meditation God’s Word is alive, speaking across all times and cultures. It penetrates beyond outward behavior, reaching our deepest thoughts and motives. Scripture is an instrument of both encouragement and correction. Through the Word, we encounter God’s presence and align with His purposes. Let’s Pray Father, I come to You honestly—sometimes my heart feels distant, and my excitement for Your Word fades beneath the weight of life’s distractions. But I know Your Word is living and powerful, and I long for that closeness again. Please rekindle a deep passion within me to seek You through Scripture. Open my eyes to see the beauty, truth, and life in every page. Stir my spirit with fresh hunger to know You more and to treasure Your voice above all else. Lord, forgive me for the times I’ve treated Your Word casually or out of routine. Help me approach it with awe and expectation, knowing that You are ready to speak each time I open my Bible. Let my heart burn with joy and wonder as I encounter You in new ways. Teach me to delight in Your truth and to let it transform me daily.In Jesus’ name, Amen.

First, we talk to The Indian Express' Shubhangi Khapre who talks about Maharashtra, where the government has invoked a 1918 Hyderabad-era gazette to address the long-standing Maratha reservation demand.Next, The Indian Express' Nikhila Henry explains how a family rift within the Bharat Rashtra Samithi has escalated into a full-blown political crisis as K Kavitha, daughter of party chief K Chandrashekar Rao, was suspended and later resigned, accusing her cousins of a conspiracy. (11:48)And in the end, we go to Kerala, where a 61-year-old farmer has stalled one of the state's largest mall projects by challenging the conversion of protected paddy land.

There's a difference between surviving as a believer and thriving as a disciple. One simply hangs on until Heaven; the other grows, bears fruit, and lives on mission for the Kingdom. What separates the two is hunger—a holy desire for spiritual maturity that refuses to be satisfied with yesterday's faith.Our springboard for today's discussion is:“Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation—if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.” — 1 Peter 2:2-3 (ESV)Peter paints a vivid picture: just as a newborn instinctively cries out for nourishment, so should we long for the Word, prayer, and fellowship with God. Spiritual maturity is not a passive process. You cannot drift into depth; you must pursue it intentionally.This hunger starts with realizing there is more of God to know, more of His ways to understand, and more of His Spirit to experience. Many Christians plateau because they mistake initial salvation for the fullness of the Christian life. But God is calling you to press in, to keep growing, to let Him refine you in character, faith, and obedience.Hunger for spiritual maturity will disrupt comfort zones. It will cause you to ask hard questions, wrestle with God's Word, and confront areas in your life that don't align with His will. It means you stop being content with surface-level spirituality and go deeper—studying Scripture until it changes you, praying until your heart aligns with His, and serving until your life reflects His love in action.Without hunger, we settle for spiritual junk food—things that entertain but do not nourish. With hunger, we feed on what will strengthen our faith, even when it's challenging to digest.The truth is, God will meet you at the level of your hunger. If you desire just enough of Him to get by, that's what you'll receive. But if you desire more—if you chase after Him like David did, if you long for Him as the deer pants for water—you will find depths of intimacy and revelation that transform your entire life.Question of the Day:How hungry are you for spiritual growth—and what does your daily life say about that hunger?Mini Call to Action:Choose one new spiritual discipline or practice to deepen your walk this week, and commit to it daily.Prayer:Lord, give me a deep, unshakable hunger for You. Stir my heart to desire Your Word, Your presence, and Your will above everything else. Remove distractions that dull my appetite for spiritual growth. Teach me to crave what nourishes my soul, so that I may grow into full maturity in Christ. In Jesus' name, Amen.Let's Get To Work!Your level of hunger determines your depth of growth—chase after Him with everything you've got.My Reasons To Believe is a reader-supported publication.

Stepping out of our comfort zone is hard. We often avoid doing it because we're terrified of being seen as less-than. We want to show up as immediate experts with impressive skills; this way we can avoid ever looking foolish. Many of are so afraid of feeling embarrassed that we spend a lifetime missing out on experiences that could add great value to our lives. It's time to stop doing this! What if we could put aside our need to impress and instead approach new experiences with a sense of humor and a deep desire to learn? If we could take ourselves a little less seriously, maybe we could actually expand and grow beyond our wildest imaginations. As we wander through the late summer woods, consider the ways you've been hiding. A magical life awaits you on the other side of your comfort zone! What am I reading?A Tale of Mirth & Magic by Kristen Valehttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9781538771822Proof of Life by Jennifer Pastiloffhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9780593474075https://bookshop.org/shop/witchywomanwalkingWhat's playing on repeat?Changes by 2PacWhat's for dinner?Peanut Noodles w/ Tofu and Cabbage SlawIngredients:Soba or rice noodlesHead of green cabbage Scallions Firm TofuGarlicGingerPeanut butterCoconut aminosRice vinegarHot waterSrirachaMaple syrupRed pepper flakesSugarSalt Instructions: Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  Drain and press tofu, cut into cubes.

In this episode, Anna Rose and Nico Mohnblatt catch up with Justin Drake from the Ethereum Foundation to explore Ethproofs, asking what exactly is Ethproofs: is it a meme, a platform, a benchmarking effort and/or an emerging community? Justin shares the emergence of the project within the EF, the influences that shaped it and what Ethproofs comprises of today. He also shares the goals of the project and how this initiative supports the snarkification of the EVM by providing standardized benchmarks for the growing ecosystem of zkVMs. Their discussion covers the evolution from monolithic zkEVM approaches to RISC-V-based systems, and movement towards mandatory proofs and eventual zkVM enshrinement.
