Our speech and our action need to align. Instructing others with our words is only effective when we demonstrate what we teach with our lives.

How, when and what we speak to others matters deeply. When we encourage others with our words it reflects what God has done for us in giving us His Word.

Controlling our words may be one of the most difficult things to do. The same mouths we praise God with also can be used to hurt and harm others. Understanding how powerful and dangerous words can be can also lead to using them for the ultimate good which is praising God.

Do you remember playing the Telephone Game when you were a kid?  It was best played with a large group of kids sitting in a circle.  The first kid would think of a sentence (the longer the better) and whisper it into the ear of the kid sitting next to him, and so on.  By the time it went all the way around the circle, the result was inevitably quite different than the original sentence which started the game. That's what started to happen in our community and the communities surrounding it as Hannah's illness progressed.  We began to hear rumors that the word on the streets was that Hannah's death was "imminent" or that the doctors had given her "two weeks to live."  Neither of these things were true, at least as far as we knew, and we felt we needed to address these rumors before they went any further. Thank you for joining me for another bonus episode of the While We're Waiting podcast in this year-long series in which I share our family's experiences as our teenage daughter Hannah battled glioblastoma brain cancer from February 2008 through February 2009.  My desire is to process through the events of those twelve months with the perspective that 16 years has brought … and point listeners to hope in Jesus along the way.I would love to hear your thoughts on the show.

Most people are familiar with the classic game of telephone where one person whispers a phrase to someone else seated next to them and that person then whispers what they heard to the next person, and so on. The game continues until the last person shares aloud what they heard, often bearing little resemblance to the original message.  Oregon ArtsWatch recently profiled an exhibit that opened in Lincoln City this month that showcases what happens when a group of local artists is invited to play telephone. But instead of a phrase that’s whispered, here the prompt came in the form of two photographs, including one of the Oregon coast taken at sunset. Each of the participating artists had only the work that preceded them for inspiration to interpret visual details, colors or objects they saw or imagined, and chose to pass on in their rendering for the next artist. The result is 18 works in a variety of different media, from watercolors to sculpture, fiber art to spray paint, some bearing little resemblance to the work that came before it. Krista Eddy is the visual arts director at the Lincoln City Cultural Center and the creator of the exhibit. She and Sam Jacobson, a featured artist based in Cascade Head, join us to talk about “The Telephone Game Group Invitational” which is on display until Feb. 11 at the Chessman Gallery at LCCC. 

Playing The Telephone Game

This week, Dom, Mike and Laura are trapped in glass cases of emotion, armed with only their wits and a convenient aux cable.   Marvel at how badly Jamie can butcher several popular songs (deliberately) and the Australian accent (not deliberately).   And see the whole thing unravel as he commits several goofs in the design.   Stick around until the very end to hear a cheeky little bit of audio from between recordings. It's like an MCU post-credit scene but with a much lower budget.   Don't forget to bag yourself some Infinite Escape Room MERCH!   You can get a sweet The Infinite Escape Room enamel pin and puzzle postcard to impress your friends and shame your enemies. You also get access to a secret bonus episode. Check it out!   Please get in touch and chat with us on Facebook and Twitter (or whatever Sesame Street sponsor Musk is using to call it).   This week's solvers were Dom, Laura, and Mike. Your Games Maestro and puzzle creator was Jamie Gibbs.

Remember when we'd sit in a circle as kids and one person would whisper a sentence into the ear of the kid next to her? And she'd then whisper to the next kid and he'd whisper to the next and by the time the whispered sentence had made it around once, it was utterly distorted, often not recognizable to the original. Welp. That's gossip. Wendy's putting a finer point on this today.

Do you remember playing The Telephone Game back in grade school, where everybody would line up and you'd whisper a message from the start of the line to the end and it would never end up the same as when it started? Well, our views of life and the world around us can similarly be differing and varied even if we're all experiencing the same happening. On this week's Overlap Podcast, our boys Sid and Keith take a deep dive into the diversity of differing experiences and navigating incongruous narratives about how we view, perceive, interpret and construct our personas and the wonderful world around us. It's all about our own abilities to be masters of our own domain, architects of our destinies, and the potentate of personal perspective this week in a Very Special episode entitled “The Stories We Tell Ourselves,” so if you want to learn how to navigate your narrative without giving in to the nattering nabobs of negativism, you're gonna want to tune in to this week's Overlap Podcast.

It's that time again folks. We wind down the month with a collection of random thoughts that we've had over the last few weeks in a good ole fashioned Tomatalk. Enjoy. Love ya you filthy animals

Mums the word in this one, well it might be, we're not sure because we had headphones on. This week we're playing a phrase guessing game where one person throws something out and the other is deaf. Craziness ensues.

這幾天在準備回顧 2022 年；第一集是講中國和俄羅斯。拍片之後，我想到了一些事情可以在這裡補充；但入正題前，請容許我咬文嚼字。除非你是甚麼政治學者，否則你可能會覺得「獨裁」、「專制」和「極權」，是互通的幾個詞。獨裁，就是由一個，又或者兩三個人人，把持一切決定。由於權力太過集中，有人甚至認為，天下間根本不可能有真正的獨裁。任何統治都是要一群人去做，那就是專制。人類有史以來，都是專制。錢穆甚至曾經提出，古代中國不是獨裁，而是專制；由一小撮有同樣背景的人，把持所有決定。以上所提到的「同樣背景的人」，可以因血緣、種族、語言等，但也可以是純粹後天的身份；例如是某個黨的黨員，又或者是某個宗教的神職人員。專制，不一定是極權。甚至乎可以說，多數人都覺得，某程度的專制可以接受；尤其是當他們自己本身就是統治階層的一員；也有些人稱呼統治階層的成員做精英。極權，是完全另一個層次的控制。最極致的，是社會各個方面都完全控制，包括經濟、教育、媒體和私生活。另外，極權統治者的典型特徵是，擁有絕對權力，不受任何「外部勢力」束縛；所以在國際關係中，極權統治者一定要做「話事人」。否則，做不到「話事人」也要做「對頭人」。對內，極權統治者要人民絕對服從。宣傳、審查和恐嚇，都是慣用手段；異議更是必遭壓制。極權主義，亦會有一套無論如何都能夠自圓其說的意識形態。至於專制社會，會用利益去收買群眾；只要沒有直接威脅到精英的利益，專制社會只需要維持某程度的尊卑之分，而不用絕對的服從。假如用 George Orwell 的兩本名著去做類比，Animal Farm 所描繪的是一個專制社會，而 1984 的世界就是個極權的「反烏托邦」（Dystopian）。過去三十幾年，神奇國度似乎是由專制走向極權；尤其過去幾年，這個情況更加明顯。「為何要這樣細分？反正都是不民主，不是嗎？」歷史上，專制是常態。假如說十四億人的神奇國度是專制社會；那是正常不過的事，沒有有甚麼值得大驚小怪。但是極權統治卻是很難維持。不要忘記，天下間任何一個選擇都意味背後有一定代價；而極權統治，每個選擇的代價更是可以很大，也就是很高的管治成本。大家如果記得在 1984 當中，第一幕就是所有人都要對著電視機做運動，做得不夠落力，是為被責罰的，可以想像這種社會工程有多大的成本嗎？其他的監控維穩統戰，全部都是成本。當然，最終付出代價的，往往是社會最低層的人；不論是甚麼社會體制模式，亦如是。大家其實都心知肚明這一點，所以很多人其實不反抗專制，尤其當他們相信自己有機會晉身精英階層，當「人上人」。之前在另一篇文章有提到 Dunbar Number；人類學家對靈長類動物研究時發現，腦袋的運算能力，限制了我們可以應付的人際關係有多複雜。人類嘛，最多就只可以處理約 150 人。換句話說，我們生活裡面家人、親友、同事、朋友等，真的同屬於一個群體的人數，上限約莫就是 150 。「不對呀？那政權有幾千萬黨員呀。」無錯，當你想細想，就會發覺這個組織，有些設計還是頗為科學；例如他們的最高權力核心，政治局常委，是七個人。近代的心理學有個假說，就是所謂「七加或減二法則」，即是一個有效的小團體中，人數由五至九人不等。當然，不是說那個黨很刻意要用科學去設計他們的體制，但可以見到，神奇國度再神奇，也不可能違法基本的自然法則。在塔尖的政治局常委 7 人，由政治局委員是 24 人「選出」；政治局的 24 人，由 205 人的中央委員「選出」。205 人的中共中央委員，就是國度裡掌握了實權的人。當中又可以大概分成三批，中央、地方和軍隊。205 人的三個分支，每個系統其實也是幾十人左右；仍然在 150 人的限數之內。中央委員會裡面，又有不同的「工作小組」；工作小組大概也是按「七加或減二法則」去設置決策委員，指揮轄下機關。許多工作小組的成員，是重複的；這不只是架床疊屋的問題。更重要問題是，當極少人數要作出大多數決定，而他們掌握的資訊又極有限，結果很多決定都不能顧及「執行」和「被執行」者的現實情況。最終為了向上交差，往往用到威迫利誘，也衍生出以上所講管治成本高的問題，順帶一提，自從擔任香港行政長官之後，李家超嘗試將以上所提到的「工作小組」模式引入。但香港本來已經有一套行政的思維，刻意將中共的一套移植到香港的官僚體制，又會否出現器官排斥呢？二，以上所講在管理學中，是 span of control 的問題，而另一個維度就是 chain of command 的長短。假如是個只有幾個人的組織，權力集中或者會比分散有效；尤其是當效率是首要考慮。但當體制龐大，權力集中令到 chain of command 變得更長，另一個問題就是 communication breakdown。以神奇國教的頂層結構作參考，視乎涉及的範疇，由最高到最基層的執行，最少也有五層至七層。玩過 Telephone Game 就知道，一個訊息經過三傳，四傳之後就已經嚴重失真。而且這裡提的層，只是很粗略的階級區分，而不是實際溝通時涉及的人數。可以想像，在現實情況下，一個政策由上而下的傳達，到執行的時候，就只有最基層都能夠明白的指令，例如清零。「這種管理問題到處都有，為何在極權和專制社會的問題會更嚴重？」極權社會的問題，是資訊沒有透明度。明明掌握了在地資訊的，卻沒有權做決定；層層而上之後做的決定，幾乎可以肯定不是最前線所最著緊，又或者最可行。任何正常的管理，都會建議權力下放。但極權政府不能放權。所以，當權力不能下放，由上而下的 one-size-fit-all 的指令，往往就只可以是方向性的。無傷大雅的小事，結局就是「做咗當得咗」。不過，一旦涉及到具體執行的方法，指令就變成不顧一切代價的硬指令。清零，就是硬指令。住房不炒，就是沒有具體的「講咗當做咗」。以上兩種都同屬 communication breakdown。甚至有人認為，世間不可能有真正的極權統治，正如沒有真正的獨裁。另外，專制社會快要窒息的時候，為了生存，偶爾也會鬆一鬆。結果就是大家見到的周期現象：一放就亂，一亂就收，一收就死，一死又放。或者中共的夢想是演變成一個不會犯錯的極權社會；但現實中，是沒有可能由核心到外圍，仍然能夠鉅細無遺地監管十四億人每日的生活。越是甚麼都要管的極權統治，其實就製造越多漏洞；畢竟，每件事其實都可以視為 205 人與十四億鬥智鬥力。現代社會一個很重要的發明，就是官僚體制，但也有人認為，傳統中國社會就已經有官僚，例如唐律和科舉。但別忘了，在人類歷史上，很多概念都是在不同地方各自演化。官僚的極致，就是每個決定都是有規有舉，彷彿由機器人去做；官僚在處理已知的問題，可以很有效。所以，最能代表官僚文化的文具，就是圖章；官僚能夠表達的訊息，都應該是預先設計好的。所以，當官僚面對未知的事物，往往是不知所措；當指令不具體時，這些人肉機器亦不懂得自己要執行甚麼。法治和官僚體系是相輔相成的；偏偏在神奇國度，不少規則都是非正式的，對規則的解釋權，也是掌握在少數人的手上。正如以上所提到，集權不見得令神奇國度的決策質素更佳；決策很多時根本不能執行，又或者代價極高。集權越嚴重，越來越多政策不能被執行。就連香港本來高效的官僚，過去幾年都因為沒有自主，所以很多事情都做不出來。問題不只是人選的問題，而是整個決策的機制根本脫離現實；本身已經是一個死症。至於中國大陸裡面，情況也不會好到那裡。甚至乎，俄軍的作戰能力完全露底，軍備亦落。今年八月 Pelosi 訪台後，解放軍只可以用射導彈落海來宣洩情緒。軍演本來是要向其他國家展示作戰應變能力，而不是武器有多強大。人類早就有可以令生靈塗炭的大殺傷力武器；甚麼坦克大炮導彈，還有甚麼可怕？不方便的真相是，解放軍除了這些，就沒有能力組織更複雜的事。究竟中共知不知自己有以上的體制缺陷？我相信他們比任何人都更清楚問題所在。但對於政權，它的重點是要繼續執政，而不是改變這些問題。以上除了是政治，其實也是基本管理學。當然，知道應該怎樣去管理，和最終你可以選擇怎樣去管理，是兩回事。很多人身在體制中，也是無可奈何。如果未加入會員專享的討論區，可以循以下這個連結加入至於今日的 YouTube ，亦希望可以給大家在主流以外的一些另類觀點： This is a public episode.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Why we're getting the Fidelity Model wrong, published by Alishaandomeda on December 17, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. This is a Draft Amnesty Day draft. That means it's not polished, it's probably not up to my standards, the ideas are not thought out, and I haven't checked everything. I was explicitly encouraged to post something unfinished! Commenting and feedback guidelines: I'm going with the default — please be nice. But constructive feedback is appreciated; please let me know what you think is wrong. Feedback on the structure of the argument is also appreciated. This is a response to The fidelity model of spreading ideas - EA Forum (effectivealtruism.org), the associated CEA blog post, plus those who have referenced it in good-spirited debate about how EA comms ought to develop in the coming years. Epistemic status: As confident as anyone experienced enough in manipulating the whims of social media algorithms for social change can ever be, given that they change semi-regularly. 6+ years of experience using social media to effect social change, including advising politicians on their use of social media, conducting experimental social media for social change projects that have informed national political party strategies, and training upwards of 500+ activists. Overview This post is an exploration of the Fidelity Model, an approach to the spreading of ideas that is widely referenced within EA spaces. While I am broadly supportive of the fidelity model and agree with its central premises, I disagree with one influential interpretation of it: that we shouldn't use social media to communicate key EA ideas. This interpretation of the argument is claimed to be central to CEA's social media scepticism, which I argue is misplaced. I am more sympathetic to the mass media scepticism this argument also brings about. I explain why having an "official presence" on social media is important using the Fidelity Model. Social media is an important communications model, even if social media itself is low-fidelity. The Fidelity Model I am taking this from the original post, so as to keep our arguments clear and consistent. Definition Fidelity The key term in this model is "fidelity." Therefore it will be useful to define this term. By fidelity [the original author has] in mind nothing more than the classic dictionary definition of "adherence to fact or detail" or "accuracy; exactness." As an example, imagine I am shooting a movie on an old camera. If the image captured by the camera causes it to seem as though I am wearing a blue shirt when actually my shirt is red, then the image captured by the camera is low fidelity. The problem With reference to The Telephone Game, the author of the original argument accepts that "EA" ideas and arguments are nuanced and worries that some methods of communication require that the nuance be stripped back in order to be easily communicable. When the context gets stripped away, those who receive the ideas leave with something that's similar to effective altruism, but different. Thus, when we hear the EA message repeated back to us, we get sentences like "EA is about earning all the money you can and donating it to GiveWell charities" or "EAs only care about interventions that are supported by randomized controlled trials." To a certain extent we can influence the sentences we get back by being more clever about how we frame our ideas, but it seems unlikely that framing can do all the work. How we get to social media scepticism Very few people who use social media believe it to be a high-fidelity information exchange space. Platforms like Twitter, with low character counts and a norm towards fast-paced argument threads, are particularly bad at fostering nuanced debate. EA ideas are nuanced, and when they aren't covered with that nuance in m...

Words of Life Episode 21

Have you ever played, “The Telephone Game”? As the time drew near for our risen Savior to ascend into heaven, He assured the disciples that He would send the Holy Spirit. And one of the reasons for this was to ensure that the disciples didn't find themselves playing some version of this game when it came to relaying His teaching and the events of the Gospels. God Himself made sure of it.

Steve and Jake take the lead describing how they communicate as builder and architect, BOTH of them sounding out the importance of EVERYONE spending quality time at the job site. Pete finally pipes up with a Scopes of Work program he and Steve worked on in the Building America program. All three wrap up with the idea of Balanced Building: run your job sites and your business as high performance operations.

The further we get away from the source, the more distorted the message can become.  Tune in this week for encouragement to get back to the original message.  

Questioning Christmas - "Are the Gospels Like the Telephone Game?" (Pastor A.C. Caswell) by Phoenix Bible Church

Does communication in your business feel like you're playing “The Telephone Game”? Today's episode explores the importance of having one clear source to guide everything that you communicate as you do what you do.

Evangelical radio-host, Todd Friel, took on the non-believer objection that the Bible we have today is the product of the telephone game. He threw to Wretched host John Fabarez in his "Road Trip to Truth" video series, but both men and the guest apologist completely missed the point of the objection.It's pretty obvious, but I decided it was worth a few minutes to clarify the nature of the telephone game objection, and point out how it very much still stands and that Todd and crew were dodging the question better than Neo dodged bullets in the Matrix.Atheist objection: the telephone game proves the Bible is wrong | WRETCHEDhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsGJ1wwIgjUJoin this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIS4cWaXgWpznjwovFYQBJQ/joinSupport Paulogia athttp://www.patreon.com/paulogiahttp://www.paypal.me/paulogiahttps://www.amazon.ca/hz/wishlist/ls/YTALNY19IBC8?ref_=wl_sharehttps://teespring.com/stores/paulogiaPaulogia Audio-Only-Version Podcasthttps://paulogia.buzzsprout.comFollow Paulogia athttp://www.twitter.com/paulogia0http://www.facebook.com/paulogia0https://discord.gg/BXbv7DSSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/paulogia)

On our seventh take at Client Horror Stories, we receive Stephanie Schwab, CEO, and Founder of Crackerjack, who tells us a story that sounds weird from the beginning, even if she only realized during the interview, when a colleague that you met 3 weeks ago has a project that appears to be a match made in heaven for complementing what both your companies do. So the first yellow flag comes up when he brings in the fact that he's not actually partnering up with you, and simplifies it with a short “You bill us, and we'll bill the client” to make things quick and easy. So how surprising must have been to find out that, in fact, they were also being outsourced by the company the client was actually hiring, right? So this messed up chain of command that looked much more like a children's phone game obviously needed to end up blowing, and the blow up involved everything from delayed payments, micromanaging, and even end up talking sh*t about your not-so-partner on the phone with the main company. This story gives us a lesson on confidence, integrity, upfrontness, and being able to call for an attorney once the situation begins to get weird. And all of it in the times where “Influencer Marketing” was just called “Working with bloggers”. Links: Stephanie Schwab Crackerjack Morgan Friedman

Does communication in your workplace resemble an adult game of "telephone"?  In this episode, Dr. Celina explores group and individual communication with her observations, insights, and recommendations.  Especially during times of change, communication has to adjust and is at most risk of breakdown.  What steps can you take to improve team and interpersonal communication today?

On this episode, we discuss a few passages from the Bible on the importance of keeping God's Word pure. Journey with me as we recall a game we all played and failed at.We need to understand the difference, and ensure we are know the difference.

We're trying something new with our podcast: to keep the episodes more focused, we'll release the conversational part where we answer to the listeners, address followups, and discuss less heavy questions separate from our main episodes! This is the first of such episodes, where we discuss everything we missed in last episode about the perfect reading corner, namely UV lights, reading rhythm, and audio ambiance. After that, we move on to chit chat about a game that has become more popular during lockdown: Gartic phone, a game where people pass along an idea by drawing or describing a drawing in succession. This method of information propagation is actually pretty interesting, because some concepts are way more stable than others, and they are not the ones you may think of at first. We discuss these stable concepts and attractor points while pulling from Plato or Jung, and compare this experience to latent states of machine learning/neural network algorithms.

Have you heard of the Telephone Game? In this game, one person whispers something into another's ear. The second person then repeats the words to the third person. The third passes on the message to the fourth. And the chain continues. By the time the message comes to the last person, it sounds nothing like the original message! This is pretty much what happens in today's story, called The Rumor, written by Anushka Ravishankar and published by Karadi Tales, and it has vibrant illustrations by Kanyika Kini.

When we were young we played a game called Telephone. That's when you start out with one message and then by the time it gets to the end, the message has changed. But what happens when it's not a game, it's your life and the story that is being told is full of lies and deception?

In Episode 4, Kristy and Brad talk about Clarity. How clear is your company's value proposition, vision of longer-term success, and what's needed to get there?

When our Associate Producer, Sarah Berry, came to prison, her crime determined how she was treated by other women in the facility. Media coverage of her case and gossip within the prison walls created a narrative about Sarah before she had even set foot inside a state prison. This week on With(in), we speak with Sarah and the woman who gave her the hardest time when she came to prison, Terrina Flora Alexander. We trace their relationship back to the beginning, looking to understand why Terrina decided to target Sarah, and how Terrina’s life experiences impacted how she viewed Sarah and her case. Denise, Draper and Ashley explore the hierarchy of crime that exists both within and beyond the prison gates, and why some crimes seem to be more “acceptable” than others. Now friends, Sarah and Terrina’s relationship shows the power of talking to someone, rather than about them, and how, as a society, we allow what’s said about someone to determine how we view them, and, subsequently, treat them.

But first I will set the table: Did you ever play the “Telephone Game” as kid? Where one person whispers a message to the next and finally the last person announces what she heard? Usually her announcement is very different from the original message. That’s the way most of us hear. The message becomes distorted. Not because the speaker is listening but because the message goes through our own internal filters and conditioning. We listen just long enough to formulate a response and then many of us do not wait to speak we interrupt, overtalk just to have our say. A message is sent but is it received? Do we really hear what has been said? When having an intentional chat we have some ground rules. After making sure the listener is ready to listen -- listen to episode one for more on making sure the time is right to have an intentional chat. But how do you listen? TO LISTEN Give your partner a chance to really share her thoughts by sitting face to face, heart to heart, belly to belly, maintaining gentle (loving not confrontational) eye contact and take in what she has to say without focusing on what you might say next. This is really listening. You may think – I know what she is going to say. Well, you do not and, even if this is the fiftieth time you have had the same argument, give your partner the respect of listening. You will be rewarded for it in so many ways. It is okay to nod, reach out and hold hands, or rub a knee but do not interrupt. Interrupting is disrespectful. It says that what I want to say is more important than what you are saying. Love requires respect! Let your partner have her say and just receive the message. So this is tip number 2 -- listen Here is question number 2 -- 2. When did you last notice that you appreciate what I bring to your life? Listener this is a question that is likely to make the speaker feel very vulnerable. Please do not use this opening as an opportunity to unload, criticize, blame or shame. Leave the bad memories of the past in the past and for this question, especially, only bring forward something good. What we focus on grows so for these intentional chats, let’s focus on the good. And with this question you are going to shift from listener to speaker. As you make the shift uses “I” language and tell her the last time or the most powerful memory of when you were most appreciative of the speaker’s presence in your life as you maintain gentle eye-contact. repeat 2. When did you last notice that you appreciate what I bring to your life? Listener please answer this question! It is an opening to more love and trust. Here is the quote of the day to encourage you: from ANONYMOUS What we see around us matters far less than the truths that we hold in our hearts. Share that good truth you hold in your heart dear listener! Also, so that you are both on the same page, share this episode of the Beyond36 podcast with the person you would like to ask this question. It will help you both to be on the same page and ready to have an intentional chat!

Even at ten, I’d beam at the chance to change someone’s past... I wanted nothing but to be a crystal ball. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nakedpoetry/message

Have you ever wondered if there’s a better way to read the Bible? There are many methods of storing up God’s Word in our hearts, but there are some pitfalls we need to watch out. Today we are learning out to read our Bible better by engaging our minds. Be a She Proves Faithful Teammate for Just $5 a Month! Hey! Are you enjoying the SPF Podcast?

Sola Feels Sometimes we read the Bible with our feelings first, when we need to engage our minds and let our feelings follow. Babylon Bee (a fake satirical "news" site) published an article called Sola Feels to illustrate the Christian culture's bent toward feelings. Read the article here (remember it's fake): http://babylonbee.com/news/progressive-evangelical-leaders-meet-affirm-doctrine-sola-feels/ Facts first - know the Truth of God's Word Faith second - put faith in the Truth Feelings third - let them fall in line with the Truth and be carried to true joy! Some ways we put our feelings first when reading the Bible: When we interpret the truth in a different way because it messes with our feelings Xanax approach - going to isolated Scriptures to make us feel better making the Bible about serving us and making us feel better Pinball approach - good intentions but we miss the wholeness of God's plan and can fail to give us context that engages our mind Magic Eight Ball - the Bible doesn't provide answers our whims and isn't just used to give us personal direction about our decisions Telephone Game - when we know the Word through other people's books instead of gaining Bible literacy through reading the Bible Numbers 2-5 come from Jen Wilkin's book Women of the Word which you can purchase on Amazon or local Christian bookstore. Better Bible Reading When we read the Word with our minds first and let our feelings follow, that is better Bible reading. Luke 10:27  “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” Romans 12:2"Do not be conformed to this world,[c] but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect." Luke 5:1-11 Peter saw Jesus differently when He obeyed Him and one of the first things he saw was his sin. Reading the Bible should convict our hearts of sin and righteousness and the character of God. Tips 1. Read the Bible with our minds to gain understanding, not just to feel something 2. Understand the context and history of the book to gain a better understanding 3. Wrestle with the Scriptures before going to the commentaries 4. Know what the text says first before we decide it's meaning 5. Read the Bible to know the Lord of Glory Resources Read Psalm 39 :) Good Questions to ask for Better Bible Reading: 1. What does this say about God? 2. What is God like? What has God done? 3. Who am I in light of this passage? How do I respond to God?

In Part Two of our series on the Kelly-Hopkinsville Encounter, we analyze the elements of the Sutton and Taylor families' story. Is the tale that ended up in the media what actually happened or were certain descriptions exaggerated to make the story more sensational in order to sell newspapers? Perhaps some details were misreported due to anxiety, faulty memories and the phenomenon of the "Telephone Game?" Or was it all a hoax and for what gain? What we find is that the story in its original and accurate telling is so bizarre, any further embellishment would be pointless and believe it or not, that's the story the families stuck to, which only serves to add more mystery to an already mysterious world.

In a case like this, there are a ton of theories. In August, it will be twenty-one years. Twenty-one years since Cayce McDaniel vanished. In that span of time, a lot of things can happen. Potential sources pass away. Recollections from people close to the case become fuzzy.     There is this game called Chinese Whispers. In the United States, it is known as The Telephone Game. In this game, one person whispers a message in the ear of the next person in line. The second person does the same thing to the person next to them and so on. The last player announces the message to the entire group. The objective is for the first person and the last person to have the same message. But errors happen in the retelling, and depending on how many people are playing the game, many times, the last message in no way resembles the original one.   While this makes for wonderful child’s play, it can cause high blood pressure and hair loss when it comes to investigating a twenty-one year old missing persons case.   I’m Brandon Barnett. And this is Searching For Ghosts.   This case is the Chinese Whispers game on steroids. After twenty-one years, the stories didn't just morph, they attained urban legend status. And these stories are the ones that always include the disclaimer of “I know what happened” from the people who tell them.   The stories that are repeated most, seem to have the least amount of hard evidence behind them. Obviously, they can’t be ignored—they might be true…or at least have a kernel of truth in them.    Then you have the one off stories. The ones where a name comes up that you’ve never heard before…and you never hear again. Once again, you don’t want to ignore this information, but these stories hardly ever lead anywhere. So you file them away in your notes and move on.   Then you have the stories that are not as prevalent. But you have two or more sources who give similar accounts with similar details. And sometimes these correlate with news reports. Those are the ones that interest me the most.   The idea is to walk this thing slowly, and look at the reports carefully and objectively.   Obviously something was missed in this case. And I see no point in blazing through everything and making the same mistakes some two decades later.     I noticed something in the first article of the Mirror-Exchange concerning Cayce’s disappearance. At the end of the article, the author gives some family history with a seemingly out of place piece of information concerning a “friend” of Cayce.   QUOTE “Cayce’s parents are divorced. Her father, Ronnie Mcdaniel is living near South Fulton. He’d recently been injured in a motorcycle accident. Cayce reportedly had been friends with a Milan teenager who is now being held on federal charges in a McNairy County jail. She also has an uncle living in Florida and an aunt in Knoxville." UNQUOTE   That passage struck me as odd when I first read it. That kind of information would either take a little digging or it came from a tip. It’s in the article for a reason.   I later received a tip from a reporter who remembered an in-depth Jackson Sun series that revealed that Cayce was pen pals with someone in prison.     Then, the day after releasing the bonus episode, I received those back articles of Cayce’s disappearance from the Jackson Sun newspaper in Jackson, TN. And there is some gold in there.   From the September 15, 1996 edition of The Jackson Sun.   QUOTE Once, a year ago, Cindy heard Cayce talking on the phone to a young man named Charlie she’d met at church.  I said something about him to a friend and she was horrified. Cindy, she said,He’s 18. And I jumped Cayce about it. She told me I just didn’t know him.   And I said, I don’t care if he’s the pope, he’s too old for you and you’re not to call him. She thought she was going to turn his life around. He was the first one I checked on, but he’s in the McNairy County jail. UNQUOTE And this information verified what Kathy had said a few weeks prior:         In Episode 2: Valorie, I talked about a rumor that Cayce had used a phone at the church to make a call. Dawn/Kathy   I asked former Lead Investigator Jerry Hartsfield if he remembered investigating a phone call made from the church by Cayce. He had no knowledge of any phone call being made.  Hartsfield   There is also nothing in the news reports we have recently obtained about any phone call being made from the church. Is this just an urban legend or an oversight by police? Because without there being a working phone at Cindy’s house, any call made by Cayce would be a game changer as to her whereabouts after she left the church.   I had a source ask a member of the church who was there in 1996, about the phone situation from back then. The church member indicated that it would’ve been a church phone and not a pay phone that Cayce would’ve used.   Then I received word from a source that there was a letter written to Cayce some months before she went missing. So I set up an interview to see what this was all about. This source stated that Cindy had possession of this letter at the time, and that she let my source read it. It was from an adult authority figure who stated that God was telling him that Cayce was to be his virgin. That was the only detail given to me, but my source said that it was Quote “Creepy” Unquote.   I was also told that Cindy, Cindy’s boyfriend Steve and Joe, her brother, took matters into their own hands. This was also confirmed in the interview I did with Kathy.       There is nothing in news reports to substantiate this, so I again contacted former lead investigator Jerry Hartsfield to see if law enforcement knew about the letter at the time.       There seemed to be a pattern of adult men showing an interest in the underage Cayce. This is unsettling at best. This type of thing sets up a scenario that could easily lead to a motive to do harm to Cayce. Do these things have anything to do with Cayce’s disappearance? Is the letter real? Was this the doing of a delusional older man who felt that God was speaking to him in this manner?   There is one person who can either confirm or deny the existence of this letter. One person who might even still possess it and knows who the author is. That person is Cindy McDaniel, Cayce’s mother.   An update on Cindy: I’ve heard from family members that she has been released from jail. I’ve sent word that I still want to speak with her.   There are so many questions that only she can answer. And she can remove the cloud of suspicion hanging over her by coming on this podcast.   Cindy, when you’re ready to talk, I’ll be here. Waiting.

The Telephone Game: Pastor Joshua Redding by Highlight Church

Daniel Marcos is the CEO and co-founder of Gazelles Growth Institute as well as a certified coach of Gazelles International Coaches. Daniel has coached individuals all over the world and works with a wide range of businesses from the million-billion dollar range. Today, Daniel and I focus on the 4 key stages of growth in a business. Let's dive in. After being an entrepreneur for the last 16 years, Daniel has realized that the decisions you have to take in each growth stage are completely different and this is where CEOs seem to face the most trouble. CEOs often want to execute the same decision for each stage and they often encounter a substantial amount of pain points with this method along the way. If you want to grow your company, the first bottleneck is you, the leader. Companies need to evolve the leader from an entrepreneur to a CEO and turn their startup into a well-run organization. Daniel defines each stage by the quantity of employees on payroll instead of the amount of sales that are generated. His reasoning for this, he says, is that as the company gets larger, people find it more and more difficult to communicate throughout the organization. The first stage is a startup and everyone is wearing different hats in the company. The most important part during this stage is product development and understanding what it is you are selling and to whom you're selling the product to. Stage two is the small business. The company size ranges between 6-15 employees. The entrepreneur now has to be a leader. Once a leader, he/she has to do two very important things to keep this status – learn how to give directions to your team and delegate tasks. Daniel believes stage two is the hardest stage for the entrepreneur, because both your clients and employees expect more of you. Stage three means you're a leader of leaders. You have between 16-250 employees and now the most critical role is you building up team leaders. You have to develop talent and teach people how to lead others. The problem during stage three is communication, because communication gets broken as the chain of command goes further down. It's almost like you're playing the Telephone Game. At the end of the day, you have to respect the position of your leaders. As an entrepreneur, you get so used to fixing everything, but at this stage you need to give up some control and trust in the people you've trained. You have to begin to shine the spotlight on them instead of you. This is why most CEOs are stuck at stage three and are not able to move on to stage four. To get to stage four, you have to be humble and really let go. Your role is to have a great first layer of executives. If you have a great sales manager, for example, you will never have a sales problem. Though, as Daniel points out, we secretly don't want a great sales manager, because then we know we won't be needed anymore. What does stage four look like? The operation runs flawlessly without you. You leave for vacation and everything is absolutely fine when you come back. The entrepreneur, turned leader, turned leader of leaders - is now an innovator, change catalyst, and chief of culture in the organization. Your duty is to design a culture that's respected all through the organization and to change what's currently not working within the company.   Interview Links: Growth Institute Website More Resources: ScalingUpBusiness.com:  Learn about how growth coaching can help you and and your business see big results.

On this episode of Witness Radio, was the translation of the Bible like a game of telephone?

Remember the “Chinese Telephone Game?” Fortunately, an awareness of linguistic racism has changed this to just the “Telephone Game.” The idea is that one person tells another a sentence. That person tells the sentence to someone else, and so on. After a few people, a sentence like “The fish is in the water” turns into […]

An SLT Update, & the Value of Simple w/Joel Zaslofsky Well, we're a little over 6 months into this "whole blog/podcast thing" and we figured it was time for an update. Actually, we're probably way overdue for an update! There are some things upcoming that you may be interested in and we'll also be taking a little bit of a break as we head into our summertime family working vacation. But the highlight of this week's episode is an interview with a good friend of ours, and fellow simplicity aficionado, Joel Zaslofsky of the Value of Simplicity blog and the amazing Smart and Simple Matters podcast! Simple Life Together Update:     We wanted to let you know some things that are going on with us and the show: Photo organization: We’ve talked about this in the past and it’s probably one of the most requested topics we get. We’re still researching and asking the pro’s for some tips, so you can look forward to that in the next couple of months. Dan will be doing an Evernote tutorial, too, at some point. He's been waiting for the dust to settle and now is ready to start working on it.  If you have any special requests regarding Evernote, drop Dan a note at Dan@SimpleLifeTogether.com. Finally, we’ll be on the road a bit for the next month or so...we’ll be in Portland for Chris Guillebeau’s World Domination Summit for the 3rd year in a row and then we have some mixed business & fun time with family throughout July and early August. We typically release shows every Thursday but for July we'll have shows on the 4th and 18th and then pick back up in August! Interview with Joel Zaslofsky of the Value of Simple We had an amazing interview with Joel Zaslofsky...creator of the awesome Smart and Simple Matters podcast and the Value of Simple blog. He’s incredibly open about his journey from a six-figure corporate job to carving out a niche online, while shaping his simple lifestyle. He offers tons of tips and free resources on his website to help you "liberate your time, money and talent."  We were thrilled to be his guests on Episode 15 of the Smart and Simple Matters show back in January and we’ve been dying to have Joel on our show. Well, we finally made that happen and it was fantastic!  You don't want to miss this interview!  Here are some of the questions and things we talked about: - So Joel, who are you and how do you make people's lives simpler? - So, you talk about your “Personal Renaissance.” Can you describe what that is, what it’s been like for you, and how it has led to a simpler/more focused life? - Can you tell us a little about the backstory of “liberate your time, money and talent” as it relates to you, your clients and your people who follow your work? - Tell us about your love for spreadsheets and some ways you use them to simplify your life. - How would you define curating, what do you curate personally, and how do you think others could benefit from curating? - Batman has his Batcave, the Super Friends had the Hall of Justice, and you have the Refuge of Simplicity! Can you share what goes on there? - Can you give us any tips about “keeping it simple” with a family? - For a lot of people, the whole “investment thing” is complicated. You address simplifying that in your online course “Start Investing with $100.” Can you share a little about that? - So Joel, what have we left out that is “must know” info for our listeners? What have you got going on these days?

Mark talks to singer/songwriter/guitarist Kate Schutt.  Originally from Pennsylvania, Kate spent time in Boston and then many years in Guelph, Ontario before settling in her current locale of NYC.  A slew of great recordings make up her body of work, including "No Love Lost" (the one Shilansky is on, also Shilansky-pal Dave Jamrog, w/string arrangements by Jeff Louie and a special appearance by Toni Lynn Washington), and "The Telephone Game," (featuring Orrin Evans, Terri Lynn Carrington, John Ellis) a project made in conjunction with the innovative Artistshare label.  Kate and Mark talk about all this, as well as studying Chinese, why someone would bail on Harvard to go to Berklee (!!?), the life of a self-managing/producing artist, and much more.  If you've heard other interviews with Kate (she has been making some major waves in the industry, including being featured on NPR's "Song of the Day"), this one is different, because in this one Kate addresses how she "left it all behind" and dropped out of the biz for a significant period of time, to do volunteer work, and she discusses this in moving detail.  Songs include: "The Moon Got Broken", "Our Legs are Burning," "Glamorous Life" (a Sheila E cover!), "You Can Have the Sky," and "Raining."

Jason Crane interviews singer/songwriter Kate Schutt about her album Telephone Game (ArtistShare, 2009). Schutt has walked a different path than the average musician. She went to Harvard, where she played Division I lacrosse and hockey. She also went to the Berklee College of Music to hone her jazz chops. She speaks Chinese because her high school offered it. She's an American, but she lives in Guelph, Ontario, a place she describes as the "Austin, Texas of Canada." And on Telephone Game, she let her fans contribute to the songwriting process.

There are a lot of theories floating around out there as to what could be the cause of the M.E. phenomenon. Can these changes be attributed to any one of them? Are we living in a Simulation? Is CERN and their Large Hadron Collider REALLY to blame? Or is it merely the result of false memory and misremembering?With thousands upon thousands of people having the same memory, it gets a little hard to answer the question “What is Causing this”? Dive in with me…and let's explore the possibilities!And also…have a bucket ready…to catch the droppings as our brains mutually melt.Support the Show at:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/paranormgirlpodBuyMeACoffee: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/paranormgirlpodFollow the Show at:Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/paranormgirlpodTwitter: http://www.twitter.com/paranormgirlpodInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/paranormgirlpodReferences & Sources:Physicists assure us that we're not living in an alternate reality : https://www.cnbc.com/2017/02/22/alternate-realities-and-trump-mandala-effect-and-what-cern-does.htmlCERN; What we do: https://home.cern/about/what-we-do/our-researchCERN; What is an accelerator?: https://home.cern/science/accelerators Nick Bostrom Youtube interview (On Simulation Hypothesis/Argument): https://youtu.be/nnl6nY8YKHs Simulation Hypothesis Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_hypothesis Elon Musk says we may live in a Simulation (article): https://www.nbcnews.com/mach/science/what-simulation-hypothesis-why-some-think-life-simulated-reality-ncna913926Do we live in a Simulation?
