Forget Odessa and misery: Mengele's postwar reality was different.What if everything you thought you knew about Josef Mengele's post-war life was wrong? Far from being a miserable fugitive, the “Angel of Death” lived comfortably in South America — supported by networks that had nothing to do with the mythical Odessa organisation.Host Paul Bavill welcomes journalist and historian Betina Anton, author of Hiding Mengele, to uncover the real story of Mengele's escape, life in hiding, and the myths that continue to surround his legacy. Drawing on her own childhood experiences in Brazil's German community, and six years of research, Betina reveals a far more unsettling truth than the legends suggest.You'll discover:The Myth of Misery: Why Mengele's life in Brazil was far from wretched — from beaches and barbecues to soap operas and dinner parties.Odessa Exposed: The reality behind the supposed Nazi escape network, and how personal “buddy systems” actually kept fugitives safe.Mossad's Near Misses: How Nazi hunters came within touching distance of Mengele — and why he always slipped away.Evil in Everyday Life: Letters and accounts showing Mengele's mundane concerns, from waistlines to wine, alongside his total lack of remorse.Join us for a myth-busting conversation that shatters the comforting lies we tell ourselves about justice and punishment.

Sunday Morning Service Series - Mix Tape - a verse by verse study through the book of 1st & 2nd Thessalonians: Today we cover 1 Thessalonians Ch 1 verses 1-4 titled Don't Stop Believing Paul has many pleasant memories of the days he spent with the infant Thessalonian church. Their faith, hope, love, and perseverance in the face of persecution are exemplary. Paul's labors as a spiritual parent to the fledging church have been richly rewarded, and his affection is visible in every line of his letter. Paul encourages them to excel in their newfound faith, to increase in their love for one another, and to rejoice, pray, and give thanks always.

In today's episode, we're talking about how food can be our friend. I can't think of a time a person told me they couldn't eat Happy Teriyaki or Dairy Queen, but almost on repeat I have people telling me they can't eat sweet potatoes, fruit, or carrots, because they have too much sugar or carbs. By some psychological magic we have been duped into believing we need to watch out for the cholesterol in eggs, the sugar in fruit, the saturated fat in beef and lectins in seeds, because they are coming for our health. As soon as we think we have it figured out, we find out from the latest influencer that the chemicals broccoli makes to protect itself from predators can cause cancer (they don't). Real food is our friend and greatest ally. It wants to be a reliable resource in building our vitality, protecting our cells, satisfying our palate and extending our lives.   ➡️Download 16 Delicious Goat Whey Recipes https://drwholeness.ac-page.com/goat-whey -------- Connect with Dr. Matt online:

Don't Stop Believing, Part 3 A sermon by Pastor Richard Sfameni, Lead Pastor at Victory Church in Providence, RI I. Introduction Welcome and purpose of the podcast: sharing powerful messages from services. Victory Church's mission: reaching the lost, restoring the broken, reviving believers. Call to engagement: readiness to receive the Word of God. Message title: "Don't Stop Believing" (better phrased as "Keep Believing"). Central theme: The necessity and critical importance of living by faith. II. The Nature and Gift of Faith Biblical definition: Faith as the “substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1). Faith is confidence in God's promises and His character. Every believer has a “seed/measure” of faith—faith given by God (Romans 12). Faith as a muscle: grows stronger through use, challenges, and spiritual exercise. Warning against comparing levels of faith among believers. Personal testimony: growth through spiritual trials and resistance, analogy to physical training. III. The Importance of Faith (Scriptural Emphasis) Essential for pleasing God: “Without faith it is impossible to please God” (Hebrews 11:6). Two elements: belief that God exists and that He rewards those who seek Him. Faith is required in every circumstance; God knows individual limits and provides grace for endurance. IV. Faith as the Primary Metric in the Church Examination of Paul's concern for faith in the church (1 Thessalonians 3). Paul's repeated focus on the faith of the congregation rather than external measures. What Paul didn't emphasize: not the size, budget, or facilities of the church. Critique of cultural (non-biblical) values in assessing church success. Dangers of equating “bigness” or material signs with spiritual greatness. Examples: 85% of American churches have fewer than 200 people, illustrating that size is not the key measure. Example from church history: Charles Spurgeon's conversion in a small chapel, demonstrating greatness is about spiritual impact, not size. V. Keeping Faith Central The importance of keeping “the main thing the main thing”—focus on the growth and exercise of faith. Individuals and churches must prioritize spiritual metrics over worldly metrics. VI. Lessons from the Heroes of Faith Review of “the cloud of witnesses” in Hebrews 11-12. Faith exemplars: those who faced challenges and saw God's faithfulness. The value of biographies/autobiographies of Christians for practical insights into a life of faith. Example: George Mueller's dependence on faith for provision. Recognition of current church members as examples of faith and faithfulness. VII. Hindrances to Faith Identifying and “laying aside every weight”: Bitterness, unforgiveness, distractions, and past failures. Analogy of running a race: shed anything that slows spiritual progress. Biblical example: Paul “forgets what is behind and presses on.” The need for “divine forgetfulness” and remembrance of what matters (the cross, God's promises). VIII. Perseverance of Faith Faith requires perseverance, endurance—keep moving forward despite obstacles and struggles. Examples of perseverance from secular figures (Walt Disney, Einstein, Churchill, Lincoln) to illustrate endurance. Claim: with the Spirit of God, believers have even greater potential for perseverance. Encouragement for listeners to resolve to succeed and trust in God's enabling power. IX. The Focus of Faith: Fixing Eyes on Jesus The source and goal (“author and finisher”) of faith is Jesus. Spiritual direction comes from focusing on Christ—not on people or circumstances. Analogy: Just as a runner focuses on the finish line, Christians must fix their gaze on Jesus. Biblical example: Peter walking on water by looking at Jesus, sinking when distracted by the storm (Matthew 14). Isaiah 26:3—Perfect peace comes from “mind stayed on Thee.” Hymn: “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus” used to reinforce the point. The danger of spiritual distraction; importance of continual refocusing on Christ. X. The Cross as Spiritual North Point Story: Beach analogy—currents can pull us off course unnoticed, requiring realignment. The cross of Christ as a central, guiding reference for believers. Regular course corrections are necessary due to “the currents” of worldly distractions and sin. Importance of always coming back to Christ and the cross. XI. Application and Call to Action Self-examination: Is your faith growing? Are you focused on Jesus? Urge to lay aside distractions/weights and make the necessary spiritual adjustments. Invitaton for reflection, response, prayer, and renewed commitment as the service closes.

Don't Stop Believing, Part 2 A sermon by Pastor Richard Sfameni, Lead Pastor at Victory Church, in Providence, RI. Opening and Welcome Greeting and response (“Amen. You may be seated. Praise the Lord…”) Appreciation for worship and participation Importance of authentic worship regardless of personal trial Your worship may inspire others seeing you worship through struggles Introduction to the Message Continuation of last week's sermon: “Don't Stop Believing” Central theme: The importance of faith Church communications and resources Plan to distribute more tools (study notes, questions, etc.) Request for members' contact information for improved communication Emphasis: Church is not just about large attendance, but engagement and making disciples The Church's Mission A. Contrast: Mere attendance vs. engagement and discipleship Mission to make disciples, not just fill seats Desire for everyone to participate in the mission Illustration: “Church is not a show” Story of the complaining church family and the child's remark Clarification: True purpose is the kingdom of God and being a church on mission Textual Foundation: Hebrews 12:1–4 Reading the passage: Call to run the race with endurance Surrounded by a “cloud of witnesses” Laying aside every weight and sin Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of faith Enduring hostility/persecution Context of Hebrews Audience: New Jewish believers facing persecution and discouragement Emphasis on Jesus' supremacy (greater than Moses, angels, law, etc.) Faith as a central theme—challenge to keep believing despite opposition The Value and Battle for Faith The cost and value of faith Faith is precious and under attack by the enemy Analogy: No one protects garbage; faith is worth guarding Scriptural support: 1 Peter 1:6–7 Faith tested by trials is more precious than gold Faith defined as taking God at His word, trusting His promises The devil's strategy Destroy faith to win the war for your soul Example: Peter's denial—Jesus prayed for his faith, not his flawless behavior Faith enables recovery from failure; without faith, all is lost Restoration possible in every area if faith remains Encouragement Against Discouragement Relating to listeners facing severe trials Message: Keep running, keep believing, keep trusting God Faith Lessons from Hebrews 12:1–4 Prompt: “I need to learn more about faith.” Faith as Armor and Protection Theme connection: VBS and the armor of God Shield of faith in spiritual warfare Attack of the enemy represented as “fiery darts” Practical reminder: The armor and shield are necessary for those following Christ Emphasis on being targeted by the enemy after choosing Christ Review of Main Points on Faith (from Hebrews 11 and 12) Examples of Faith Long-distance race imagery—a “cloud of witnesses” Heroes of faith in Hebrews 11: Overcame challenges through faith Romans 15:4—Scripture written for our learning and hope Hindrances of Faith Laying aside “every weight and sin” Illustration: Man with backpack in church = symbolic of carrying burdens Every person has weights unique to them; these hinder the race Philippians 3:12–14—Forgetting the past, pressing to the future Weights may be past hurts, offenses, or nostalgia for “good old days” God grants “divine forgetfulness;” past loses its sting through grace Warning: Some people's lives are diminished by holding onto the past Everyone gets hurt—must let go of past to move forward Analogy of car: Rear view mirror vs. windshield Not just bad things—even good things can keep you from the best Example from business literature: Jim Collins' “stop doing list” Need for focus and discipline; not every opportunity is for you Living With Focus and Purpose Personal examples (Clergy Day, Black Hawk helicopter story) Temptation to take on too much, even good things, but must focus on God's specific calling Pastor's personal callings—pastoring, discipling, international ministry Not every door is yours to walk through The Perseverance of Faith (Major Point) Key emphasis: Learning to persevere/endure Life of faith is a marathon, not a sprint Everyone must run their race for a lifetime Many start but give up because of opposition/discouragement Greek word “hupomonē”—active, determined perseverance despite hardship Perseverance needed in all areas: marriage, raising kids, ministry, career Illustrations: Father-son story—Elmer MacLurkin (a joke to show the importance of perseverance) Famous perseverance quote: Winston Churchill—“Never, never, never give up” Bible college anecdote: “Never, never, never quit”—words that rang true over time Practical encouragement Heroes like Noah and Abraham persevered over decades for God's promise Breakthroughs often come after the hardest trials—don't quit before your breakthrough God's grace picks you up after you fall; faith enables you to keep going Closing Exhortation and Prayer The way to persevere: Prayer and the Word Grace for endurance comes through prayer, worship, and Scripture Not about willpower, but about God's grace working in you Ministry anecdote: “You can quit Sunday afternoon, just show up Monday morning.” Final appeals Don't quit: on God, on relationships, on dreams, on your walk Don't miss your breakthrough—greatest attacks precede the next season Reiterate: “Don't quit. Don't give up. Never, never, never quit.” Closing prayer Ask God to ignite and strengthen the people's hearts with truth Call for going forward, not quitting, renewed by God's grace in word and prayer Recap: The critical, non-negotiable importance of daily connection to God's Word and prayer  

 John 3 | Shiloh Church Have you ever felt like your attention is under attack? That distractions—whether obvious or subtle—are pulling your eyes off Jesus?

You'll learn:   Why spiritual understanding requires spiritual focus How to fight distraction with thankfulness and intentionality That believing in Jesus is more than a moment—it's your daily mindset How Colossians 3 and John 3:36 show us a better way to live Why the cross is more than a symbol—it's the center of it all  This message will stir your heart, sharpen your vision, and help you trade temporary distractions for eternal focus. It's time to lift your eyes and lock in on Jesus. Listen now and let your heart be recalibrated for what matters most.

Don't Stop Believing: A Reflection on Hebrews 12 A Sermon by Pastor Richard Sfameni, Lead Pastor at Victory Church in Providence, RI. The Power and Blessing of God's Word The Word of God stands as a timeless, life-changing force. It is not just information, but revelation—a source of power and blessing. For the believer, Scripture isn't just a traditional book; it is the living, inspired guide that shapes faith and anchors hope. The Christian Race: Endurance Over Speed Using the imagery from Hebrews 12, believers are reminded that following Jesus is not a sprint but a marathon. Life in Christ requires perseverance and a willingness to continue through battles, spiritual attacks, and moments of doubt. The encouragement is plain: Don't stop believing. “Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith...” Faith as a Marathon The Christian journey is long and demanding, requiring perseverance, not a short burst of effort. Life brings seasons of spiritual honeymoon and also testing, but through faith, every hardship can be overcome. The Examples of Faith: A “Cloud of Witnesses” Hebrews 12 begins with a reminder that we are “surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses,” referring to the faith heroes listed in Hebrews 11. These individuals—Abraham, Moses, Samson, Gideon, and others—demonstrated faith amidst suffering, deprivation, and daunting obstacles. Their stories assure us: If they made it, we can too. Their testimonies cheer us on, encouraging us to keep running and believing despite all circumstances. Believers today have more resources—the full Bible, stories, and testimonies—than those early heroes did, yet the call is the same: keep the faith. Laying Aside Every Weight The Hindrances to Running the Race The passage urges us to “lay aside every weight and the sin that so easily entangles.” Like a runner shedding unnecessary gear, believers must let go of anything holding them back from wholeheartedly following Christ. Practical Weights to Lay Aside: Weight Description Laziness Neglecting spiritual discipline or commitments Lack of Commitment Merely being involved rather than truly devoted Distractions Allowing social media or worldly interests to replace time with God's Word Unforgiveness Holding onto grudges, which hinders spiritual progress Critical Spirit Being harshly judgmental towards others within the faith community Bitterness Allowing wounds to fester into deep resentment   These are not just bad habits, but actual spiritual weights that slow our progress and can keep us from finishing strong. The passage highlights personal responsibility: We must choose to lay these aside. The Sin That So Easily Entangles: Unbelief The passage distinguishes between “weights” (various hindrances) and “the sin”—which, in context, is unbelief. Unbelief is not a minor issue to God; it reflects a lack of trust in His promises and a turning away from His truth. The greatest obstacle to enduring faith is not hardship, but losing faith in the faithfulness of God. “See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.” (Hebrews 3) Enduring with Encouragement Like athletes, we don't compete against each other, but run our own race, in our own lane. The victory is not comparison, but completion. The faithful who went before us testify: hardships can be overcome, faith can triumph, and God remains true. Grace to Overcome Lay aside every weight: Make choices that honor God over comfort or distraction. Persevere through unbelief: Trust in God's Word and His purposes, even when you cannot see the end. Closing Encouragement Let these truths settle in your heart: You are not running alone. The “crowd of witnesses” testifies to God's faithfulness through all generations. It's too soon to quit. Don't let weights or unbelief keep you from the victory promised to all who finish. The prize is eternal. While runners in ancient games received crowns that faded, your reward in Christ is everlasting. Stay encouraged. Don't stop believing. Lay aside whatever holds you back, and run with endurance—the Author and Finisher, Jesus, is waiting at the finish line.    

What do you do when the promise feels distant, and your faith feels weak? In this powerful and personal message, Apostolic Elder Zane Anderson brings a timely word from Hebrews 10:23—“Hold fast to the promise… for He who promised is faithful.” With heartfelt stories, prophetic encouragement, and spiritual insights, Pastor Zane reminds us that God's delays are not His denials. From hospital rooms to altar calls, from waiting rooms to breakthroughs, this message is for anyone who's on the verge of letting go. You'll laugh, cry, and be stirred to keep believing—even when the miracle hasn't come yet. Discover how to activate the faith you already have, surround yourself with community, and anchor your hope in God's unshakable Word. Key themes: Strengthening faith while you wait Why “don't stop believing” is more than a song lyric How to build up your spirit through the Word, prayer, and presence The power of praying in the Spirit Why you need people who will be “faith carriers” with you Whether you're holding on by a thread or standing strong, this is your reminder: God is faithful. Don't stop believing.

How we work with our minds in the spaces between collapse and rebirth (those uncomfortable gaps in life as well as the huge “gap” after death) hold the key to creating futures that do not replicate the stuckness and suffering of our past. This is true both personally and collectively. As always, with recent world events in mind, we discuss the six bardos of classic Tibetan Buddhism, as well as the three qualities we need to effectively navigate the space between the death of what was and the birth of what will be.

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2021 conversation with Steve Perry. ABOUT STEVE PERRYOne of the most iconic voices in rock music history, Steve Perry is best known as the lead singer of the band Journey during the group's most successful period. His first Top 20 pop hit as either a performer or songwriter was the solo-written “Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin',” which became a hit for the band in 1979. In the following decade he co-wrote an unbelievable streak of classic songs with Neil Shon and Jonathan Cain, including “Any Way You Want It,” “Who's Crying Now,” “Open Arms,” “Separate Ways,” ”Send Her My Love,” and “Don't Stop Believin',” a single that's been certified five times platinum. His 1984 debut solo album Street Talk produced the classic singles “Oh Sherrie” and “Foolish Heart.” After penning additional Journey hits “Be Good to Yourself,” “Girl Can't Help It,” and “I'll be Alright Without You” he departed the band and released his second solo album, For the Love of Strange Medicine, featuring the single “You Better Wait.” After briefly reuniting with Journey and co-writing the additional hits “When You Love a Woman” and “Message of Love” in the mid-1990s, he stepped away from recording. Steve returned in 2018 with his third solo album, Traces. In 2021 he released his fourth solo record, a holiday collection called The Season, produced by Steve and Thom Flowers, and featuring contributions from multi-instrumentalist Dallas Kruse. The Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, whom Rolling Stone magazine named among the “100 Greatest Singers of All Time” joins us to talk about exploring the great American Christmas songbook from a writer's perspective, to share some stories about his own songs, and to offer some insight into his approach to the craft.

Happy Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Richies! In light of AAPI Month, we have a story about someone who has given “comeback” a whole new meaning. After fleeing North Vietnam as a child with his family, Ke Huy Quan turns to acting and is immediately cast in “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” and then “The Goonies.” He seems to be on a rocket to stardom. But then, in an industry that's unfair to non-white actors, the acting roles dry up and he can't find work. So he pivots and turns to stunt coordinating. But 30 years later, just when he thinks he'll never act again, he's cast in “Everything Everywhere All at Once” and everything changes. Again. He wins an Oscar. And 50-year-old Ke is a star all over again.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.
