Dr Clark continues the series on the Lord's Supper, Nourish and Sustain. This series explores what the Supper is, why it was instituted, how it has been understood in the history of the church, what Scripture says, how we should understand it, and practice it. The Lord's Supper is one of the two sacraments instituted by our Lord Jesus Christ. A sacrament is a sign and seal of Holy Spirit-given benefits. Where baptism is the sign and seal of initiation into Christ-confessing covenant community, the Lord's Supper is the sign and seal of renewal and personal appropriation of the benefits promised in the covenant of grace. Tragically, since the mid-ninth century at least, holy communion, which is intended to bring Christ's people together, has often been a source of division. Perhaps worse, however, for much of the last one hundred fifty years, the Supper has been much neglected among evangelicals. In this episode, Dr. Clark concludes his discussion of John Calvin's teaching on the Lord's Supper from his Institutes (1559).

In this episode, I continue with Doctrine & Covenants 88 and move into sections 89–92, “A Principle with a Promise.” I share the wrestle I had over releasing this episode that talks about the vaccine, why I ultimately felt impressed to publish it, and how it ties into following the prophet and learning by faith. We'll look at what it means to submit our will to God, seek answers in the scriptures, and embrace the Word of Wisdom as both temporal counsel and spiritual promise. “… the submission of one's will is really the only uniquely personal thing we have to place on God's altar. The many other things we “give,” brothers and sisters, are actually the things He has already given or loaned to us. However, when you and I finally submit ourselves, by letting our individual wills be swallowed up in God's will, then we are really giving something to Him! It is the only possession which is truly ours to give!” “Swallowed Up in the Will of the Father” Swallowed up in the Will of the Father Alan Jackson - Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus "Seek Learning By Faith," Elder David A.

In this episode, I sit down with Will Scott, Founder and CEO of Search Influence, to discuss how a strong culture paired with strategic adaptation fuels sustained growth. Search Influence—ranked No. 4,154 on the 2024 Inc. 5000 list—serves as a powerful example of how culture and strategy go hand in hand. Will shares his personal insights into how a strong culture empowers teams to remain agile, innovate under pressure, and stay aligned with evolving market demands. We explore how intentional leadership and cultural clarity can help companies adapt without losing their identity. Tune in to learn how building a strong culture is not just a nice-to-have—it's essential for agility, resilience, and long-term success.

DOWNLOAD SLIDES DOWNLOAD AFFIRMATION OF THE SPIRIT OF FAITH   Summary of the message (Generated by OpenAI) The Spirit of Faith: Part One – A Lifestyle of Provision and Favor By Pastor Bryan Hudson, DMin Main Text 2 Corinthians 4:13 — And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak Paul roots the teaching in faith as a lived reality: believing, speaking, and embodying Christ. 2 Corinthians 4:3, But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, 4 whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. 5 For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus' sake. 6 For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. Key Themes and Teachings 1. Treasure in Earthen Vessels God has placed His treasure (His presence, power, and favor) in us. This makes ministry possible: it's God doing the work through us. God has confidence in His people, just as we have faith in Him. Recognizing this treasure should influence our choices, attitudes, and lifestyle. 2. The Spirit of Faith Defined as a disposition or attitude that aligns with God's Word. Not simply belief in a moment, but a permanent posture shaped by the Holy Spirit within us. Like any human disposition (mood, attitude), the spirit of faith becomes the way we live and respond. Key principle: “I believed, therefore I spoke” (Psalm 116:10). Faith is honest—acknowledging struggles while declaring God's promises. Faith does not require denial of reality, but trust that God transforms reality. 3. Faith vs. Fear Both involve belief in the unseen: Fear imagines unseen dangers. Faith embraces unseen promises. If we can believe in fear, we can believe in faith. Example: Faith is like a key fob—evidence of what you don't yet see (the car). 4. Renewed Inwardly Outwardly, we may age or decline, but inwardly the Spirit renews us day by day. Faith focuses on unseen realities: God's ongoing renewal and strength. Comparison to maintaining a car: what's inside sustains and renews the outside. 5. Light Afflictions vs. Eternal Glory Paul calls his sufferings “light” compared to God's eternal glory. Faith reframes difficulties by viewing them against eternal realities. Affliction is temporary; God's work in us is weightier and eternal. 6. Example of Abraham & Sarah God promised them a child at 75 and 65, but fulfillment came at 100 and 90. Lesson: Faith requires lifestyle consistency over time, not momentary belief. They had to maintain the spirit of faith for 25 years. Faith does not deny barrenness or age—it believes God's promise beyond them. 7. Lifestyle of Faith True faith is not about one-time victories but a sustained way of life. Like athletes: a single good performance isn't enough; lifestyle determines consistency. Faith requires daily walking (“walk and not faint”), not just occasional soaring. Lifestyle supports faith's manifestation—holiness, prayer, Scripture, perseverance. 8. Seeing the Unseen 2 Corinthians 4:18 — “We look not at things seen, but unseen.” Physical circumstances are temporary; God's promises are eternal. Faith involves shifting vision: Seen reality: problems, lack, age, struggles. Unseen reality: God's provision, renewal, promises. Believers must choose what they focus on. 9. Faith Is Honest, Not Denial Faith doesn't call sickness health or deny problems. Faith acknowledges reality but affirms God's greater reality: “I may be sick, but I am healed through Christ's stripes. Application Guard your lifestyle: choices, attitudes, and disciplines matter. Sustain faith: don't quit during delay—promises often require waiting. Focus on unseen realities: God's promises outweigh temporary troubles. Walk daily: consistency in prayer, obedience, and trust reflects true spirit of faith. Provision and favor follow when the spirit of faith becomes lifestyle, not just an occasional act. ✅ Summary Statement: The spirit of faith is not a momentary belief but a sustained lifestyle of trust, obedience, and perspective rooted in God's promises. By recognizing the treasure within, aligning attitudes with God's Word, and walking daily in faith rather than fear, believers experience God's provision and favor—even amid affliction, delay, or unseen circumstances.   An Affirmation of the Spirit of Faith By Pastor Bryan Hudson, DMin I have the Spirit of Faith, which is a proper disposition and attitude aligned with the Word of God. By the grace of God, I live a lifestyle that supports the Spirit of Faith. I walk in provision and favor because God is faithful and helps me be faithful to Him. I have God's treasure in this earthen vessel called my life. God entrusts His treasure to me, and I will live a lifestyle that honors Christ and continues in covenant relationship with God and my fellow believers in Christ. I embrace realities that I do not see. Though outward things are perishing, my inward person is being renewed day by day. The afflictions that I endure are light compared to the glory that is being revealed. I don't call things that are as though they're not. By God's grace, I call things that are not as though they were. God keeps His promises. The Spirit of Faith allows me to maintain the type of lifestyle that will allow God to manifest His provision and favor in my life. I don't have to look at the things that I see, because there's more to life than what my eyes can see. Through the Spirit of Faith, I see God's promises and purposes fulfilled. I have the Spirit of Faith and I am living a lifestyle of provision and favor

Chris McIntosh, Humanitarian Response Adviser for Oxfam in Gaza, discusses the battle to get aid trucks into the enclave.

When consumer trust is more fragile than ever, how can brands, particularly in highly scrutinized categories like infant nutrition, utilize the latest approaches to not only build trust but also deepen consumer relationships? Agility requires not only adapting to evolving consumer expectations and technological advancements but also maintaining ethical and transparent practices, especially when dealing with sensitive topics such as infant health. It also demands a willingness to experiment, learn, and iterate quickly in response to market feedback and emerging trends. Today, we're going to talk about building trust in a digital age, navigating the complexities of launching a purpose-driven CPG brand, and redefining what “healthy” means for a new generation of parents. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Meika Hollender, Chief Marketing Officer at Nara Organics.

Dr Clark continues the series on the Lord's Supper, Nourish and Sustain. This series explores what the Supper is, why it was instituted, how it has been understood in the history of the church, what Scripture says, how we should understand it, and practice it. The Lord's Supper is one of the two sacraments instituted by our Lord Jesus Christ. A sacrament is a sign and seal of Holy Spirit-given benefits. Where baptism is the sign and seal of initiation into Christ-confessing covenant community, the Lord's Supper is the sign and seal of renewal and personal appropriation of the benefits promised in the covenant of grace. Tragically, since the mid-ninth century at least, holy communion, which is intended to bring Christ's people together, has often been a source of division. Perhaps worse, however, for much of the last one hundred fifty years, the Supper has been much neglected among evangelicals. In this episode, Dr. Clark continues discussing John Calvin's teaching on the Lord's Supper from his Institutes (1559).

Thank you to the folks at Sustain (https://sustainoss.org/) for providing the hosting account for CHAOSSCast! CHAOSScast – Episode 116 In this episode of CHAOSScast, host Georg Link is joined by guests Sarina Canelake, Feanil Patel, and Felipe Montoya from the Open edX community, to discuss their experiences with the GrimoireLab tool and the launch and growth of their maintainer program.  The conversation dives into the history and impact of the Open edX project, the evolution of their maintainer program, and the use of metrics to track and improve community health. The guests also share personal stories and provide insights into the challenges and successes they've encountered along the way. Press download now! [00:00:34] Sarina, Feanil, and Felipe introduce themselves and their backgrounds. [00:02:02] Feanil and Sarina explain the origins of the maintainer program, the mix of Python and JavaScript repositories, and how maintainers influence code direction. [00:04:02] Feanil explains the history of Open edX, being open sourced in 2013 by edX (MOOC platform) and how Axim Collaborative took over stewardship in 2021. [00:07:04] We hear Felipe's journey into the project from student to TA to community contributor and leader since 2012. He details the empowerment and pressure of receiving merge access in the Core Contributor program. [00:13:09] Sarina Explains why merge rights were initially limited to edX staff, and how the shift to community-led merging happened post 2020. [00:15:26] Feanil describes how the Maintainer Program now distributes ownership and improves repository health. [00:17:12] Feanil talks about his incremental metrics philosophy: starts with presence, then track responsiveness. [00:21:34] Georg asks how maintainers use GrimoireLab dashboards and filters. Sarina explains the use of Backstage ownership metadata for filtering dashboards by maintainers or groups and Feanil emphasizes the need for flexible tooling due to overlapping team memberships.

Sarina and Feanil stress metrics as guidance, not performance tools, and Felipe shares his team uses metrics as lagging indicators, not for pressure. [00:39:55] Sarina explains how their impact report uses lines of code, commit trends, and elephant factor to show growth and codebase health.

Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible podcast! On this first day of August, host Hunter invites us to journey together through day 214 of the Scriptures. In today's episode, we dive into the final chapters of Isaiah (65 and 66), explore Psalm 62, and reflect on the powerful truths in John chapter 3. Hunter guides us through themes of God's faithfulness, the promise of new creation, and the transforming love of Christ who knows our hearts fully and loves us still. We'll pause for prayer, receive words of encouragement, and hear community updates—including a special shoutout to the generous partners of the podcast. So grab your Bible and let's step into God's Word, remembering—no matter where you are, you are loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He already knows your heart—and he loves you still. That can be a surprising, even frightening thought: that the deepest recesses of our hearts, the places we hide from others and sometimes even from ourselves, are fully exposed to Jesus. Our selfishness, our pride, even the feelings of humiliation—he sees it all. Yet, with Jesus, this knowledge does not bring condemnation or shame. Instead, it's profoundly freeing. John would learn this about Jesus: he knew what was in each person's heart. Nothing could surprise him, nothing hidden from his gaze. And rather than being undone or destroyed by this exposure, something entirely different happens. With Jesus, when we come to understand that he knows us fully and still loves us, it's the start of something brand new—a heart made new, a life transformed. This is the beginning of God's work in us: to create something beautiful, to renovate our hearts into something truly amazing. When we realize his love for us exactly as we are, that realization is what sets us free from shame and fear. It's what enables us to live in the light, to trust him with our vulnerabilities, and to allow his Spirit to do the work of making us new. May God convince us more and more that he sees us, he knows us, and he deeply loves us. Let that reality begin something altogether new in you today. That's a prayer I have for my own soul. It's the prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And it's the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Gracious and everlasting God, you have brought us through the shadow of night into the promise of a new day. You go before us with your mercy. Sustain us by your grace and keep us from wandering paths of fear or pride. Let every word we speak and every step we take be formed by the goodness of Christ. O Lord, gather your people far and near. May every tribe and tongue come to know your peace. Let justice roll like a river and healing flow where there has been division. Pour out your spirit upon all flesh and bring us closer to the day when your kingdom comes in fullness through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever.

sustain, 5min., Austria Directed by Peter Schakl sustAIn is the Idea to combine sustainibility and artificial intelligence. Openess is to show generally ideas of sustainibility. https://www.instagram.com/peter.shackl.horn www.instagram.com/clementineclmtn Get to know the filmmaker: What motivated you to make this film? First in 1994 I was awarded with this multifunctional furniture at a competition of 500 Architecture students named „Openess“ – called by the famous Architect and Designer Mark Mack from Los Angeles, USA!In 2024 I was awarded by the jury of the Vienna Design Week and the furniture was presented at the exhibition! There occured the idea to show the multifunctionality and the idea of „Openess“ also as open minded, cradle to cradle, upcycling, so sustainability in general… with a short movie! And then all together to show a senseful usage of AI! From the idea to the finished product, how long did it take for you to make this film? It took from the first Design in 1994, the exhibition at the VIENNA DESIGN WEEK in 2024 finally to the realized Short Film, the finished product, in 2025. How would you describe your film in two words!? Sustainability & AI What was the biggest obstacle you faced in completing this film? There haven`t been any obstacles at all! What were your initial reactions when watching the audience talking about your film in the feedback video? Completely overwhelming and really touching!

I am joined by returning guest John Feffer, director of Foreign Policy in Focus and author, to discuss the dramatic shifts and fissures in the global "rules-based order." Since our last interview in March 2020, successive crises have challenged the underlying basis of international law and the coherence of the global economic system. Taking our previous interview into account—an examination of the first months of the Covid-19 pandemic, situating it historically—I asked John to help us make sense of the first six months of the second Trump administration. // Episode notes: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/john-feffer-3 // Sustain + support: https://www.patreon.com/lastborninthewilderness // Donate: https://www.paypal.me/lastbornpodcast

Sustaining the righteous.

  Like the rest of the nation, North Carolina faces some enormous policy challenges these days. Thanks to sustained disinvestments in an array of core public services, our state is fast becoming coarser, less healthy and more divided. Unfortunately, Republican legislative leaders seem unconcerned. Rather than working with Governor Josh Stein to tackle our numerous […]

In this episode, Dr. Clark continues discussing John Calvin's teaching on the Lord's Supper from his Institutes (1559), particularly looking at the doctrine of transubstantiation.

Can the Philadelphia Eagles sustain their success as they are coming off a Super Bowl win and dominant 2024 season. This year, there are questions persisting about this team that appears to still be a top contender in the NFC. This week, Ed Kracz from Philadelphia Eagles Today at S.I. joined us for a dive into these questions. It was a fantastic discussion!But first, the guys dove into some Philly sports history, specifically about the Phillies and their history. (Approx. 5:30)From there, they discussed how the Phillies front office should be handling any trade(s) before the deadline on July 31st? While they acquired David Robertson, should they try to trade for another bullpen arm? Should they get another bat in the lineup?(Approx. 10:10)The guys then had a great discussion that focused on their new Top-3 list: the top-3 athletes who played in Philly for 4 seasons or less, but had a huge impact on their team.. (Approx. 26:20)Then the guys got into some NFL talk as training camp has started around the league. What storylines will they be following this upcoming season? (Approx. 53:05)What the guys threw down on the Table this week was a great, in-depth discussion with Ed Kracz from Philadelphia Eagles at S.I. about questions we're asking about the Birds heading into this season. What kind of leader and coach will Kevin Patullo become early this season? Will the injury bug be detrimental for various positions? Will we see some holes on defense as key players are no longer on this team? All of this and much more this week on the Table!

This rich, gorgeous conversation will fill your soul. The singular and beloved Joanna Macy died at home at the age of 96 on July 20, 2025. She has left an immense legacy of beauty and wisdom and courage to sustain us. A Buddhist teacher, ecological philosopher, and Rilke translator, she taught and embodied a wild love for the world. What follows is the second and final conversation Krista had with Joanna, together with Joanna's friend, psychologist and fellow Rilke translator Anita Barrows, in 2021. Joanna and Anita had just published a new translation of Rilke's Letters to a Young Poet. At the turn of the last tumultuous century, Rilke was prescient in realizing that the world as he'd known it was passing away. Joanna's adventurous life and vision took shape in the crucibles of the history that then unfolded. Relistening to her now is to experience a way of standing before the great, unfolding dramas of our time — ecological, political, intimate. We stand before the possibilities of what Joanna called “A Great Unraveling” or “A Great Turning” towards life-generating human society. All of this and so much more comes through in the riches of this life-giving conversation. Sign yourself and others up for The Pause to be on our mailing list for all things On Being and to receive Krista's monthly Saturday morning newsletter, including a heads-up on new episodes, special offerings, recommendations, and event invitations.Joanna Macy was the root teacher of The Work That Reconnects. Her books include Active Hope and four volumes of translated works of Rainer Maria Rilke, together with Anita Barrows: Rilke's Book of Hours: Love Poems to God;  In Praise of Mortality; and A Year with Rilke. Krista's previous "On Being” episode with her is “A Wild Love for the World.” That's also the title of a lovely book of homage to Joanna that was published in 2020. Anita Barrows's most recent poetry collection is Testimony. She is the Institute Professor of Psychology at the Wright Institute in Berkeley, California, and also maintains a private practice. 

Dr Clark continues the series on the Lord's Supper, Nourish and Sustain. This series explores what the Supper is, why it was instituted, how it has been understood in the history of the church, what Scripture says, how we should understand it, and practice it. The Lord's Supper is one of the two sacraments instituted by our Lord Jesus Christ. A sacrament is a sign and seal of Holy Spirit-given benefits. Where baptism is the sign and seal of initiation into Christ-confessing covenant community, the Lord's Supper is the sign and seal of renewal and personal appropriation of the benefits promised in the covenant of grace. Tragically, since the mid-ninth century at least, holy communion, which is intended to bring Christ's people together, has often been a source of division. Perhaps worse, however, for much of the last one hundred fifty years, the Supper has been much neglected among evangelicals.

Many have come to believe that AI is a universal solution for managing repetitive tasks and a panacea for improving productivity. But is it realistic to think that machines can replace humans in a world built on connection and belonging? Our soul, or life force, is the essence of who we are and cannot be replicated by a machine; instead, it relies on human connectivity and interdependence to thrive and flourish. As we navigate this new era, the question of human-machine coexistence looms. We are living in rapidly changing times in which AI is altering the way we learn and work, but it cannot replace the magic of human-to-human relational engagement.To explore the boundaries of machine learning and achieve emotional intimacy, Harvesting Happiness Podcast host Lisa Cypers Kamen interviews Dr. Allison Pugh, a professor of sociology at Johns Hopkins University and the 2024-25 vice president of the American Sociological Association.Allison discusses the research that led to her latest book, The Last Human Job, including the dilemma at the crossroads of AI and mental health, the impact of prioritizing data collection on human connective labor, and what is lost in artificial intelligence versus human interaction.This episode is proudly sponsored by:Function Health— Offers a revolutionary platform putting healthcare technology in our hands to live 100 healthy years.

Anti-zionist writer and agitator Amanda Gelender joins me to discuss what she describes as the Jewish community's widespread fascism problem. I ask Amanda about her upbringing in a Jewish community and what role Zionism had in her perceptions of the State of Israel and Occupied Palestine, including stepping back from the question itself and interrogating the often unexamined contexts and built-in assumptions the question contains. We converse on how "Jewish feelings" are weaponized in the discourse on the Israel-US genocide of Palestinians in Gaza as an attempt to label any calls for its end and support for resistance to it as antisemitic. And lastly, another thread we pull on is the question of what fascism is and how, in our view, Zionism contained the seeds of fascism since its inception and nascent colonization efforts in Palestine. // Episode notes: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/amanda-gelender // Sustain + support: https://www.patreon.com/lastborninthewilderness // Donate: https://www.paypal.me/lastbornpodcast

There's this quiet habit so many of you have… AND it's costing you in the courtroom. You're waiting. Waiting to be liked. Waiting to be approved of. Waiting for some signal that it's safe to lead. But here's the truth: Nobody hands you authority in that courtroom, you CLAIM it. In this episode, I'm diving into what I call the Permission Principle.  So many of you are holding back without even realizing it.
