Sunday marks one year since the deadly shootings of DFL Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark. Authorities say the alleged assassin also shot state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, at their home and targeted others. The violent acts shook the state and the country. Thursday on Minnesota Now, we spent the hour looking at how people are keeping Melissa Hortman and her family's legacy alive – and how the attack is affecting political life. Our politics correspondent Dana Ferguson covered Hortman in the Minnesota Legislature and has been following the assassination, as well as steps at the Capitol to mitigate future incidents of political violence. She joined to share more about what's unfolded over the last year.

Crystal Rivers | Open Book | May 26, 2026 Give thanks deeply for the goodness of God, especially for the privilege of being planted in a community where truth is pursued, received, tested, and lived out. Do not take lightly the grace of being surrounded by people who are learning to follow the Spirit, grow in the word, and become more like Christ. This is not a call to pride or comparison with others, but to gratitude and responsibility. When God places you in an environment where truth is unveiled, He expects you to respond with hunger, obedience, discipline, and transformation. You must understand righteousness as a journey of formation. First, righteousness is imputed to you as a gift through faith in Christ. You did not earn it; it was given by grace through the finished work of Jesus. You must reckon yourself dead to sin and alive to God. This reckoning is important because you cannot live rightly if you do not first believe and accept what Christ has made available to you. Then righteousness must be imparted to you as you hear, receive, and obey the word of God. This is where transformation happens. The word renews the mind, reshapes the heart, corrects wrong patterns, and forms Christ within you. You do not become mature simply because righteousness was imputed to you; you grow as you submit to the word and allow it to work deeply in you. Finally, righteousness must become your garment. This is the place where righteousness is no longer something you occasionally attempt; it becomes your nature. Your responses, choices, instincts, and desires begin to reflect Christ naturally. You do not have to be forced to obey God because obedience has become your life. This is maturity: when living as a son becomes your true expression. Return continually to the secret place. The most holy place is not meant to be visited occasionally; it is meant to become your dwelling. The presence of God is where you are transformed, corrected, strengthened, and built. Psalm 91 is not just a promise to quote; it is a dwelling to enter. Learn to remain where God can shape you. Learn to stay long enough for your mind to be renewed and your soul to be changed. Learn stillness. Before rushing into the noise of the day, practice gratitude, quietness, meditation, and attentiveness before God. Be still and know. If you refuse stillness, you will struggle to know. Stillness trains your spirit to hear, discern, and respond. Meditate on the word. Speak the word. Let it remain in your mouth until it becomes your reality. Do not only write notes from what you hear; internalize truth until it becomes life. Understand that intimacy with God is personal. No one can cultivate your secret place for you. You must learn to speak with the Lord, listen to Him, receive from Him, and allow Him to write His laws upon your heart. In that place, He builds you. He forms you as a living stone. He shapes you so you can fit into the spiritual house He is building. Do not resist the dealings of God. Coming before Him means coming ready to be purified. He will confront the flesh, expose false identities, challenge the “this is how I am” excuses, and strip away what cannot inherit His nature. The pruning, chiseling, cutting, and correction are not signs of rejection; they are part of your preparation. You are being shaped for a place in His house. Yield to the process. Recognize that every believer has a role in the body. Do not think ministry belongs only to apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, and evangelists. Their work is to equip the saints, but the saints must do the work of ministry. Helps, administration, government, encouragement, giving, accountability, discipleship, hospitality, kindness, intercession, and support are all spiritual operations when done in obedience to God. Do not despise small acts. A phone call, a word of encouragement, a shared insight, financial help, a prayer, or a simple act of care can supply strength to the body. Exercise your priesthood over your life, your home, your work, your territory, and your circumstances. Do not assume every breakthrough will happen simply because a prophetic word was spoken. Some things require prayer, fasting, obedience, warfare, discipline, and sustained priestly engagement. Take charge spiritually where things appear disorderly. Do not surrender your atmosphere to darkness. Learn to stand in your priesthood and enforce the will of God. Pay attention when God repeats a matter through different vessels. Repetition is often confirmation. When the same emphasis comes again and again, do not treat it casually. God may be pointing to something He wants rooted out, planted, rebuilt, or established in you. Submit to the work of true spiritual foundations. Stay long enough for what is wrong to be uprooted and what is of Christ to be built properly. Zoom every weekday : http://www.caveadullam.org/zoom

What happens when Artists are embedded inside the systems that run the world? --- hospitals, railroads, steel mills, shipping companies, government ministries... In this episode, we explore the the strange, funny, visionary, and unexpectedly influential story of Barbara Steveni and the Artist Placement Group — a loose coalition of British artists who, beginning in the late 1960s, attempted something radical: placing artists inside the machinery of everyday institutional life not to decorate systems… but to complicate them.This show explores how artists embedded themselves inside mega-corporations and government agencies — often producing confusion, resistance, revelation, and occasionally profound organizational insight. And:* Why artists may function best not at the edges of society, but deep inside the systems shaping public life.How attention, metaphor, and observation can help institutions become more self aware and better run. * Why imagination inside organizations is often disruptive, inconvenient, and deeply necessary.Notable MentionsPeopleBarbara Steveni — British artist, organizer, and co-founder of the Artist Placement Group whose pioneering work embedded artists inside industrial, governmental, and civic systems as catalysts for institutional reflection and imagination.John Latham — Influential conceptual artist and APG collaborator whose work challenged conventional ideas about institutions, perception, time, and social systems.Ian Breakwell — British artist, filmmaker, and diarist associated with APG whose observational work explored institutional life, mental health systems, and everyday social rituals.Mierle Laderman Ukeles — Maintenance artist whose long collaboration with the New York City Department of Sanitation transformed public understanding of labor, infrastructure, and civic care.David Whyte — Poet and organizational thinker known for bringing metaphor, reflection, and human inquiry into corporate and institutional environments.Organizations & InitiativesArtist Placement Group (APG) — Radical British initiative founded in the late 1960s to place artists inside corporations, industries, and government agencies not to decorate systems, but to deepen and complicate them.Organisation and Imagination (O+I) — The later evolution of APG, continuing its investigation into the relationship between imagination, institutions, governance, and organizational culture.Intermedia Arts — Influential Minneapolis arts organization that helped pioneer artist/community development collaborations and embedded civic arts practice in the United States.The Hayward Gallery — London arts venue that hosted APG's influential 1971 exhibition Art & Economics, bringing artists, industrialists, and public officials into direct dialogue.Projects, Concepts & EventsArt & Economics / INN70 — Landmark APG exhibition and public experiment exploring relationships between artists, economics, bureaucracy, and institutional life.Incidental Person — John Latham's concept describing artists embedded within institutions as independent observers capable of perceiving what bureaucratic systems themselves no longer notice.John Latham and the Scottish Bing Projects — Exploration of Latham's visionary proposal to reconceive Scottish industrial spoil heaps as cultural memory and environmental sculpture.The Institution — Ian Breakwell's work emerging from placements inside psychiatric hospitals, examining institutional systems, observation, and human vulnerability.Publications & ResearchThe Artist Placement Group and the Industry of Art — Major essay tracing APG's philosophy, institutional placements, and long-term influence on socially engaged and cross-sector artistic practice.Barbara Steveni: I Find Myself — Steveni's memoir and archival reflection on APG, institutional imagination, and artist-led systems intervention.Artist Placement Group Chronology — Historical timeline documenting APG placements, exhibitions, collaborations, and policy interventions.Artforum — “Rate of Return: The Artist Placement Group” — Contemporary reassessment of APG's influence on institutional critique, social practice, and embedded artistic work.Acknowledgements (FreeSound.org)Dream-Drifting by audiomirage -- https://freesound.org/s/665193/ -- License: Attribution 4.0NixenoFX - short music jingle and start and end music.mp3 by nixeno -- https://freesound.org/s/427552/ -- License: Attribution 4.0Marlow and the DownUnder by audiomirage -- https://freesound.org/s/719007/ -- License: Attribution NonCommercial 4.0September 21 Equinox by audiomirage -- https://freesound.org/s/827532/ -- License: Attribution 4.0AMB_pub_small_busy.wav by matucha -- https://freesound.org/s/189876/ -- License: Attribution 4.0Hello User: Bright Cheery Intro Music by jjmarsan -- https://freesound.org/s/476070/ -- License: Attribution 4.0Podcast 27_Crackle by PodcastAC -- https://freesound.org/s/720338/ -- License: Attribution 4.0*******Art Is CHANGE is a podcast that chronicles the power of art and community transformation, providing a platform for activist artists to share their experiences and gain the skills and strategies they need to thrive as agents of social change.Through compelling conversations with artist activists, artivists, and cultural organizers, the podcast explores how art and activism intersect to fuel cultural transformation and drive meaningful change.

This week, we ordained Bethany member Alaina Hoffman. Pastor Rebecca preached on Luke 4, and covered geese, penguins and improv along the way.

Pastor Vince preached on Acts 1:6-11 this week. His sermon is about love - not love at first sight, or infatuation. Instead, he speaks about love that sticks around, the kind that is messy and takes work, the kind that isn't always fun, but resists the temptation to run away.

Pastor Rebecca's sermon this week covers Psalm 8, the Artemis space landing and how much water one should use while brushing their teeth. But does any of that really relate to her sense of Christianity? Her sermon has some answers

The enemy targets both the spiritually strong and the spiritually weak—with one goal: spiritual stagnation. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef points to Jesus' warning in Matthew 13: the sower and the seed are unstoppable, so Satan focuses on corrupting the soil—your heart—so the Word won't produce lasting fruit. Dr. Youssef explains that the devil has no power over God or His Word, but he can distract, harden, and shallow out our hearts—making us resistant to truth, quick to drift, and slow to mature. Jesus highlights multiple kinds of soil where the seed suffers, and today Dr. Youssef focuses on the first two: The hardened path (wayside soil) — When someone hears the message but doesn't understand it, the enemy snatches it away. Unconfessed sin and bitterness can harden the heart, dull spiritual sensitivity, and cloud understanding (Matthew 13:19). The rocky, shallow soil — Some receive the Word with joy, but without depth they wither under pressure. New believers can fall back into old habits when mocked, and longtime believers can remain “spiritual infants” if they never mature beyond surface-level faith (Matthew 13:20–21). If you've felt stuck, spiritually numb, or easily shaken, this devotional will help you identify what kind of “soil” you've been living with—and call you to ask the Holy Spirit to make your heart fertile ground for the Truth that brings joy and freedom. Prayer: Father, show me if I am one of these types of soil where the seeds of Your Word are not able to take root. And by Your Spirit, make my heart fertile ground for Your Truth that brings joy and freedom. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. Today's MY Devotional has been provided by Leading The Way. The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.

What if transformation doesn’t come from learning something new, but from letting what we’ve already received take root? In this week's message we slow down and return to communion, not as a crisis practice, but as a way of living with God in ordinary moments. This teaching invites us from striving into abiding, from fragmentation into wholeness, and from performance into presence. We take time to enter a shared space of soaking together.

The New Year often arrives with pressure. Maybe in the past, you have instilled new goals, new habits, a demand to change quickly, but you found yourself reaching for something that seemed to be unattainable in the end. In this episode, we slow this moment down. We accept this step into the new year and instead of resolutions built on force or self-criticism, we explore what it means to create intentions that are internally believed, supportive, and deeply possible. This episode is an invitation to meet the year ahead gently, with trust, embodiment, and self-honoring change. Growth does not come from pressure, it comes from relationship with yourself and the world around you. Just like in nature, the deepest changes often happen quietly, beneath the surface, long before anything is visible. Thank you for listening, for slowing down, and for choosing a rooted beginning. If this episode resonated, you're warmly invited to explore more reflections, rituals, and nature-based wisdom inside the Wild & Rooted world and through my social media platforms. www.heatherwebsterwellness.com IG: @heatherwebsterwellness

Each passing year, the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP) gains more urgency. More and more biomes around the world are approaching what scientists call tipping points — the Amazon chief among them. Hosting the 30th edition of COP in Belém, one of the Amazon's biggest cities, therefore represents one of the most significant responsibilities Brazil's diplomacy has taken on in recent times. This week, we are joined by experts with distinct and diverse backgrounds to discuss the climate challenges facing Brazil and the world ahead of COP30. They are:Adriana Ramos: Executive Secretary of the Socio-Environmental Institute, a civil society organization that monitors indigenous lands and other environmentally protected areas across Brazil, working both with governments and on the ground. She represented the Brazilian Forum of NGOs on the Amazon Fund Steering Committee from 2008 to 2013 and served on the Executive Board of the Brazilian Association of NGOs.Carlos Nobre: One of the world's leading climatologists, he is a researcher at the University of São Paulo, co-chair of the Scientific Panel for the Amazon, and a member of academies such as the World Academy of Sciences. He co-authored the research that earned the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007 and was also responsible for creating some of Brazil's main government climate centers, as well as the Large-Scale Biosphere-Atmosphere Experiment in the Amazon. Natalie Unterstell: President of the Talanoa Institute, a Brazilian climate policy think tank, and member of the COP30 Adaptation Council and the accreditation panel of the Green Climate Fund. She holds a master's degree from Harvard Kennedy School and has served as a negotiator for Brazil in global climate talks, helping lead Brazil's climate policy development.Listen to the full episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or on The Brazilian Report.Send us your feedbackSupport the show

In Part II of our Parable series, the Spoilers continue their discussion of Butler's amazing novels. While Sower is definitely a shockingly accurate book in so many ways, Talents hits home with even more power. President Jarett and a Christian Nationalist movement whose motto is "Make American Great Again"? Yikes, you guys. The parallels between this book and our current world are enough to make the baby hairs in your kitchen stand straight up.

Innovation in the workplace doesn't happen spontaneously; it needs to be encouraged and cultivated for change to truly take place. Before your company can make transformative use of emerging technologies such as AI, you must carefully examine your organization's culture and leadership's reaction to failure to make the jump to the next level not just feasible but inevitable. Missy Kelley and Dave Hartley, hosts of But Who's Counting?, welcomed Stefanie Thelen, Chief Innovation Officer for Object Computing, Inc., to discuss ways businesses can empower inventive new approaches to resolve pain points with real-world use cases of AI and automation. Stefanie urges leadership to “mind the soil” to create a more fruitful environment for workers to take on new initiatives courageously and mindfully. She explains approaching AI by asking “where does it hurt” and thinking big to address it. The conversation also touched on: Where companies should start when implementing AI into business processes How an organization's reaction to failure directly corresponds to its ability to innovate and how she recovered from a $2 million mistake Acknowledging biases and systems that need to change Putting AI in the hands of people before it's needed and how to identify those individuals Tangible examples of AI and automation Stefanie's work with Arch Grants to help build the future economy in St. Louis The impact Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) has on innovation and what it means to “innovate from the edges” “AI, in some ways, is unlike any other technology evolution or advancement. In a lot of ways, it's exactly like every other technology evolution or advancement… Continue to ask why and continue to try to pull back and broaden your lens so that you understand that it's a phenomenal tool, but it's just another tool.” - Stefanie ThelenResources to Count On Check out these additional resources for more insight into the conversation:Connect with Stefanie on LinkedIn Learn more about Object Computing, Inc. Check out Arch Grants  Read the transcript of this episodeMake sure to never miss an episode by subscribing on Spotify, Pandora or Apple Podcasts and let us know what you think by rating and reviewing.

As Justin was wrangling with a stubborn shower drain last weekend, a twinge in his back had him reflecting on the physical toll of the years—and it's not just home repairs that can catch us off guard. Stretching beyond the comfort zone of his tool belt, we engage in a heartfelt conversation about the unexpected risks in seemingly routine situations, whether it's deciphering the term "rat bag" or discussing the very real dangers first responders face on a daily basis. A New Jersey officer's recent brush with peril on a 911 hang-up call serves as a stark reminder that vigilance is a must, even when the task at hand seems as mundane as a welfare check.We then shift gears from the frontline of emergency services to the literary frontiers of Stephen King's Dark Tower series, celebrating milestones and the solace found within the pages of a good book. But it's not all about the printed word; we wrap up our session with a journey back in time, not just through the stories we love, but with the magical restoration of the iconic DeLorean from "Back to the Future." It's a tale of community, dedication, and a little bit of movie magic that reminds us why some slices of pop culture are worth preserving. Strap in for an episode that traverses the spectrum of human experience, from the daily grind to the extraordinary moments that define us.Tickets for 1st Responders Concerts, Sporting Events, Comedy Shows and more at INCREDIBLE discounts!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Some people may think palm trees are native to California, but they're not. In fact, non-native flora abound throughout our state. A bill moving through the California Legislature aims to boost the proliferation of native plants by requiring landscaping on some public and commercial areas to use at least 75 percent low-water, native plants by 2035. The idea is to promote cultivation of California's native plants, increase biodiversity, and respond better to climate change. Native plants play an important role in supporting wildlife and insects that have evolved together over thousands of years. We'll talk about efforts to grow more native plants in California, how they benefit the environment and how to incorporate them into your garden. Guests: Andrea Williams, director of Biodiversity Initiatives for the California Native Plant Society Michael Wilcox, senior lecturer of Native American Studies and Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity, Stanford University Kathy Crane, owner of Yerba Buena Nursery at Pastorino Farms Nina House, museum scientist at the University and Jepson Herbaria, at University of California Berkeley
