Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for February 6, 2026 is: sartorial • sahr-TOR-ee-ul • adjective Sartorial broadly means “of or relating to clothes,” but it often more specifically means “of or relating to a tailor or tailored clothes.” // This particular English teacher is known both for engaging students deeply in literature and for her eccentric sartorial tastes. See the entry > Examples: “As always, the Princess's sartorial elegance shone through this year, with her championing British designers, turning to old favourites and adorning treasures she's been gifted from the royal family over the years.” — Hello! Magazine (UK), 30 Dec. 2025 Did you know? Study the seams in the word sartorial and you'll find the common adjective suffix -ial and sartor, a Medieval Latin noun meaning “tailor.” (Sartor comes ultimately from Latin sarcire, “to mend.”) Sartorial has bedecked the English language since the early decades of the 19th century as a word describing things relating to clothes and to tailors, while sartor, though never fully adopted into the language, has also seen occasional use as a synonym for tailor. A third word shares the same root: sartorius (plural sartorii) refers to the longest muscle in the human body. Crossing the front of the thigh obliquely, it assists in rotating the leg to the cross-legged position in which the knees are spread wide apart—and in which tailors have traditionally sat.

We explain what Scripture teaches about the office of deacon, how it differs from pastors/overseers, and why the qualifications for deacons are intentionally less severe, yet still serious and meaningful. In this episode, we discuss: What a deacon is and their biblical role in the church How deacons serve differently than pastors and elders Why the qualifications for deacons are distinct from pastoral qualifications The meaning behind “not given to wine” vs. “not given to much wine” Why character still matters deeply, even in non-teaching leadership roles This episode is especially helpful for: Churches establishing or evaluating deacons Deacons and those aspiring to serve Pastors and church leaders seeking biblical clarity Believers wanting to understand church structure from Scripture Subscribe for more verse-by-verse Bible teaching, biblical theology, and practical conversations about church leadership.

Experiencing insomnia, restless nights, or waking up feeling tired even after a long night's sleep?Have you noticed how sleep issues often come and go with stress, overstimulation, or irregular routines?From Ayurveda, we know sleep disturbances aren't random or something to override with quick fixes.Nidra, or rest, is one of the four pillars of health. It's essential for balanced agni (digestion), the development of ojas (immunity or zest for life) and a calm, clear mind. When sleep is disturbed, the doshas become aggravated, especially vata, and true restoration through digestion cannot occur.In this episode, you'll discover:• Why sound, restful sleep is a sign of true health• The most common sleep disturbances and their root causes in Ayurveda• How overstimulation, digestion, and daily routines impact sleep quality• Why sleeping pills and over-the-counter aids don't resolve the root cause• Simple, natural practices to restore deep, nourishing sleep and resilienceReady to dive deeper into the practices of Ayurveda and guide others to do the same to support their well-being and heal from difficult symptoms and diseases? If leading others on this path feels like your dharma, or calling, we invite you to apply now for a free 1:1 clarity call with a member of our team so we can discuss your goals and see if our training feels aligned.Thanks for tuning in to the Everyday Ayurveda and Yoga at Hale Pule podcast.

Ancient faiths and modern psi research come together in this course to be taught by Jimmy Akin. The online course, Religion & Parapsychology, will explore how Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, and more have grappled with ESP, miracles, and the afterlife—and why serious evidence may challenge both skeptics and believers alike: What if psi research strengthens, rather than weakens, core religious claims about the soul, revelation, and the spiritual world? The post Study with Jimmy Akin: Religion and Parapsychology appeared first on StarQuest Media.

We often think of God as an immovable, distant force. But when Enoch looked into heaven, he didn't see a stoic deity—he saw a God in tears. Why would the Creator of "worlds without number" weep for us? The answer reveals the true heart of Zion. Summary: In this deep dive into Moses 7, we witness the culmination of Enoch's ministry. We move from the "high mountain" of personal revelation to the "City of Holiness" that eventually ascended to God. Building the City of Zion: We analyze the three pillars of Zion: being of "one heart and one mind," dwelling in "righteousness," and ensuring there are "no poor among them". The Weeping God: We explore the stunning dialogue where Enoch asks God, "How is it that thou canst weep?". We learn that God's sorrow stems from the agency of His children who "hate their own blood" and refuse His love. The Perspective of Enoch: Like Enoch, we are invited to look beyond our own time. We discuss his vision of the Crucifixion, the Restoration, and the eventual return of Zion where "heaven and earth shall meet". Divine Empathy: We discuss the "Mother Eve" connection and the "Mother Earth" who groans for her children, showing that all of creation yearns for the righteousness of Zion. Call-to-Action: Zion is not just a place; it's a way of being. What is one thing you can do this week to move toward having "one heart" with those around you? Share your thoughts in the comments!

Jesus Gives Himself Up Freely - 30-Day Gospel Reading Challenge - Day 28 (John 18:1-27) by Shawn Ozbun

1 Samuel 13-15 / February 4-6, 2026 When Saul became king, he was “little in his own eyes” (see 1 Sam. 15:17), but some time later all that changed drastically. The erosion of his character left him proud, impatient, and downright rebellious…a man who refused to bow even to the Lord his God. A serious failure and well worth our attention.

1 Samuel 3:1-18 / February 2-3, 2026 The boy Samuel heard God's voice in the middle of the night. Have you ever wondered why God spoke to him? Or what God said that night?

In the second episode of this two-part series, Dr. Stacey Clardy and Dr. John Ney discuss why deaths from neurologic conditions are decreasing, but disability is rising, and what this shift means for future care.  Show citation:  Ney JP, Steinmetz JD, Anderson-Benge E, et al. US Burden of Disorders Affecting the Nervous System: From the Global Burden of Disease 2021 Study. JAMA Neurol. 2026;83(1):20-34. doi:10.1001/jamaneurol.2025.4470  Show transcript:  Dr. Stacey Clardy: Hi, this is Stacey Clardy from the Salt Lake City VA and the University of Utah. I've been talking with John Ney from Yale about why neurologic disease now represents the top source of disability in the United States. John, for the minute, deaths from neurologic conditions are declining overall, right? But disability is increasing. So what does that shift mean for how we, the health system, should be planning for neurologic care? Dr. John Ney: I would say overall, both deaths and disability are increasing as a function of greater life expectancy in the population and, then relative to 1990, a greater increase in population of 50 million individuals came into the US either through birth or immigration during that time. So both of those are going up when we actually look by adjusting for age and per 100,000 individuals, both are actually going down, but not at a rate that we would like. So I think there's a lot more work to do. Dr. Stacey Clardy: Understood. Amongst our growing population, neurologic disability is still the leading cause and not less of a problem. For more details, we really get into the specifics and break this down by states even, take a listen to the full-length neurology podcast. And also check out the paper, it is packed with all of the data. It's in JAMA Neurology. It's titled: US Burden of Disorders Affecting the Nervous System from the Global Burden of Disease 2021 study.

What does it mean to be the salt of the earth? In today's conversation, Sarah Stenson tells us, “If you want to preach the gospel and help people, you must be sharp and rub salt into their wounds.” This leads to a discussion about the importance of not shying away from naming sin as sin. You need both the Law's accusation and the Gospel's promise to deliver forgiveness. To top it off, it's not up to you as the preacher to deliver the Law and the Gospel. The same word can function on the hearer in both ways. It's up to the Holy Spirit to land that word in your ear and in your heart. CARE OF SOULS - ADDICTIONIn Care of Souls, a special mini-series podcast from Luther House of Study, Lutheran pastors and theologians come together to explore the deeply personal and pastoral task of preaching to and caring for those struggling with life's challenging situations: addiction, death, family disharmony, and more. Rooted in the theology of the cross and the Lutheran tradition of radical grace, this series offers both theological depth and practical guidance for pastors, church workers, and lay leaders.With conversations, real-life stories, and reflections from the front lines of ministry, Care of Souls equips listeners to enter the broken places of addiction not with easy answers, but with the crucified and risen Christ.Because in the end, it's not about fixing people—it's about preaching the Gospel.Listen to Care of Souls wherever you listen to podcasts or on the Luther House website: Care of Souls - AddictionSING TO THE LORD Martin Luther said, "Next to the word of God, the art of music is the greatest treasure in the world." To understand the importance of hymnody in the Lutheran church, Lars Olson and Mason Van Essen sit down with Zachary Brockhoff to discuss the lectionary's hymns, their meaning and history, and how the music preaches the Gospel.
