Comfort & Affliction, Week 1 of 3 from February 16th, 2025 “Affliction teaches us to rely on God and comfort others." 2 Corinthians 1:1-11 by Michael Lockstampfor (@miklocks)SUMMARYThis sermon explores the relationship between comfort and affliction in the Christian life, drawing from Paul's letter to the Corinthians. It emphasizes that God's comfort doesn't eliminate affliction but teaches believers to rely on God and comfort others. Pastor Michael challenges the notion that faith is merely a crutch, arguing instead that it provides real hope and strength in times of difficulty. He highlights God's nature as merciful and comforting, and encourages gratitude for God's mercies even in challenging times.REFLECTION & DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

A @Christadelphians Video: The Atonement is one of the most amazing themes of the Bible, for it is "the power of God unto salvation". God reveals His wisdom and love for us in providing the Lord Jesus Christ who would not only uphold His righteousness, but be the basis for our forgiveness and redemption. Yet all of this must be more than just a set of principles - rather it must compel us as believers to develop the character and spirit of our Father. In a series of 8 studies, we look at four frames to discover the moral imperatives of the Atonement - The Bad News, The Good News, The Great News and the Amazing News. Study 2 - The Bad News: The old needs to pass away (Part 2). How sin entered the world and resulted in a fallen race, in need of reconciliation and redemption. Importance of understanding the mortality of man and his proneness to sin. SummaryThis video explores the moral imperatives of God's atonement, focusing on how sin entered the world and its profound impact on creation and humanity.Highlights

There is almost a cottage industry in appreciating the decades-long shortfall in America's maritime industrial base for shipbuilding and repair.After more than a decade of self-delusion in labeling the People's Republic of China (PRC) as merely a ‘Pacing Challenge', people are increasingly waking up to the fact that the PRC has overtaken the USA in the maritime arena—a domain in which we were globally unchallenged since the end of WWII.When considering both its vast commercial capacity and its development of the world's largest navy, it is a fair argument to make that the maritime challenge posed by the PRC now eclipses the threat posed by the Soviet Union at its peak.With time being short, are there solutions? There are, as outlined by our guests for today's Midrats, Michael Roberts & Bryan Clark and their report Shoring Up the Foundation: Affordable Approaches to Improve US and Allied Shipbuilding and Ship Repair from The Hudson Institute.Mike Roberts joined the Hudson Institute beginning in 2022. Before then Mike was the general counsel and a senior leader with Crowley Maritime, a top American shipping company, and president of the American Maritime Partnership. His focus is on commercial shipping and shipbuilding industries, and specifically, how fundamental changes in US maritime policies are needed to compete with China.Bryan Clark is a senior fellow and director of the Center for Defense Concepts and Technology at Hudson Institute. He studies naval operations, cyber and electromagnetic warfare, autonomous systems, military competitions, and wargaming. He is a retired enlisted and officer submariner and his last job in the Navy was as Commander's Action Group Director for the CNO.SummaryThis conversation delves into the pressing challenges facing the U.S. maritime industry, particularly the shipbuilding sector, in light of China's overwhelming shipbuilding capacity. The discussion highlights the need for affordable solutions, legislative support, and workforce development to revitalize the U.S. maritime industrial base. The guests, Mike Roberts and Bryan Clark, present their report from the Hudson Institute, which outlines actionable policies to enhance U.S. and allied shipping and ship repair capabilities. They emphasize the importance of a consistent demand signal from the government to stabilize the industry and attract skilled workers. The conversation delves into the challenges faced by the US Navy in maintaining maritime readiness and resilience in the face of potential conflicts, particularly with China. It discusses the need for a robust US-flagged shipping fleet, the implications of supply chain vulnerabilities, and the importance of leveraging allied shipbuilding capacities. The speakers emphasize the necessity of innovative shipbuilding strategies, improved maintenance practices, and a shift in mindset to prepare for future military operations effectively.TakeawaysThe U.S. maritime industrial base faces significant challenges.China's shipbuilding capacity far exceeds that of the U.S.Affordable solutions are necessary for immediate impact.Legislative support is crucial for revitalizing shipbuilding.Workforce development is essential for the shipbuilding industry.The Ships for America Act aims to increase U.S. flag fleet.Educational benefits can attract skilled workers to shipyards.A consistent demand signal is vital for industry stability.Shipbuilding is a low-margin business requiring government support.Investment in workforce training is critical for future success. The US needs a sufficient number of ships to support major combat operations overseas.China's control over global shipping assets poses a significant risk to US supply chains.The US Navy's reliance on foreign-flagged ships may not be viable in wartime.Innovative shipbuilding practices, including AI, can enhance Navy capabilities.Improving ship repair readiness is crucial for fleet capacity by 2027.The Navy must adapt its technical standards to facilitate faster shipbuilding.Allied shipbuilding capacities can be leveraged to enhance US naval strength.A consistent demand signal is necessary for ship repair yards to thrive.The Navy's public shipyards require significant infrastructure upgrades.A cultural shift within the Navy is essential to address current challenges.Sound Bites"China has 230 times the amount of shipbuilding capacity.""The Navy is far from its readiness goals.""We need to build capacity not just for peace but for war.""We can build uncrewed vessels in many different places.""We have to change the mindset we've been living with."Chapters00:00: Introduction to Maritime Challenges03:11: The Shipbuilding Capacity Gap06:04: Affordable Solutions for Shipbuilding15:05: Legislative Support: Ships for America Act17:29: Workforce Development in Shipbuilding29:24: Long-term Stability in Shipbuilding Industry34:10: Navigating Maritime Challenges and Supply Chain Resilience41:07: Innovations in Shipbuilding and Maintenance Strategies50:31: Leveraging Allied Shipbuilding and Repair Capacities57:59: Preparing for Future Conflicts and Fleet Readiness

SummaryThis week on The Wellness Matters Podcast, I had a personal conversation with a long time friend of mine, Ashley Hamilton. I thought it would be nice to have Ashely on because she recently went through a spiritual awakening. I had her ask me some beginner-type questions about spirituality because, honestly, I have been studying and living this life long enough where I sometimes forget what the beginning felt like. It was a fun and interesting way to conduct our conversation. We talked about topics like: Why people may hesitate to start their healing or spiritual journey. The difference between religion and spirituality.The shadow side of spirituality.Soul contracts.TakeawaysThe fear of judgment and the belief that one doesn't have enough time are common reasons why people hesitate to start their healing or spiritual journey.Religion and spirituality are different, with spirituality emphasizing going within and reclaiming one's power.Discernment is key in spirituality, as individuals need to determine what feels right for them and what doesn't.The spiritual journey involves shadow work and navigating the dark aspects of oneself, but it also leads to growth and transformation.Finding balance and grounding oneself are important in maintaining a healthy spiritual practice. Soul contracts involve choosing challenging life experiences for the purpose of growth and learning.During times of emotional intensity, it is important to practice grounding and self-care.Each person's spiritual journey is unique, and it is not necessary to leave behind loved ones who may not be on the same path.Introducing mindfulness practices, such as deep breathing, to children can help them regulate their emotions and develop self-awareness.Allowing each person to follow their own spiritual journey is essential, as everyone has their own unique path.I appreciate your support!If you feel called to support the podcast, leave a review on Spotify ​here​ or Apple ​here​…And if you know someone who would benefit from this episode…Consider forwarding them this email.Other ways to follow me:Instagram: ​wellness_matters_tribe​Facebook: ​wellness matters​Website:​ wellnessmatterstribe.com​My book: ​The Missing Piece​
