In this episode of the Prolonged Field Care Podcast, Dennis sits down with trauma surgeon Mark Shapiro for a no-BS masterclass on wound ballistics. They break down why understanding the physics of penetrating and blast trauma matters in austere and combat environments — even when experience makes you cynical. From high-velocity rifle rounds and their massive temporary cavities to the infectious nightmare of shotgun wounds and the four phases of blast injury, Mark shares hard-won lessons from civilian Level I trauma centers and years training special operations medics and ground surgical teams.They tackle the myths around entry/exit wounds, when (and when not) to explore right upper quadrant gunshot wounds downrange, why you should almost never pack the abdomen or chest from the outside, how to assess neurovascular status in blast-injured extremities, and why bizarre bullet paths and “stable” patients with signs of life can still surprise you.Key Takeaways:Kinetic energy (½mv²) means velocity is king — high-velocity rifle rounds create devastating temporary cavities and fragmentation that can turn one projectile into many.Jacketed rounds still fragment at rifle speeds; never assume a clean through-and-through. Bone fragments act like secondary missiles and can create wounds up to 3x the size of the fragment.For stable patients with right upper quadrant GSWs in resource-limited settings, expectant management can be reasonable — but you must have a plan, know your limits, and be ready to move if things change.Never pack the abdomen or chest from the outside in most cases. It risks pushing debris deeper and worsening injuries. Cover exposed organs if needed, but don't shove gauze into body cavities.Shotgun wounds (especially buckshot/birdshot) are “mobile IEDs” — massive tissue destruction, heavy debris inoculation, and extremely high risk of infection, fistula, and devascularized tissue requiring serial debridement.In extremity blast trauma, assess vascular status (pulses, Doppler signals, color, warmth, capillary refill) and neurologic function. The ~6-hour window to revascularization is critical, but the decision point comes earlier.Training + common sense + adaptability beat rigid protocols when resources are limited. Sometimes the best move is observation.Chapters04:15 – Why Wound Ballistics Knowledge Still Matters (even when you're cynical)08:30 – High-Energy Rifle Wounds: Muzzle Velocity, Kinetic Energy & Spitzer Bullets13:45 – Fragmentation, Tumbling & Secondary Missiles (bone shards & unpredictable paths)18:20 – Clinical Reality: Multiple Injuries & Why “Small Entrance, Big Exit” Is a Myth22:50 – Entry vs. Exit Wounds: When Trajectory Actually Matters (and when it doesn't)26:40 – Right Upper Quadrant GSWs: Explore, Observe, or Expectant Management Downrange?31:10 – The Dangers of Packing Abdominal & Chest Wounds from the Outside34:55 – Low-Energy Pistol Wounds: How They Differ (or Don't) from Rifles37:20 – Shotgun Wounds: Close-Range Carnage, Debris & Infectious Nightmares42:40 – IEDs & Modern Explosives: Blast Physics, Ukraine Patterns & Hard-Ground Effects48:15 – Primary, Secondary, Tertiary & Quaternary Blast Injuries Explained52:30 – Neurovascular Assessment in Blast-Injured Extremities (Conscious & Unconscious Patients)56:45 – Lessons from the Trauma Bay: Common Sense, Training & Knowing When to Deviate from ProtocolFor more content, go to www.prolongedfieldcare.orgConsider supporting us: patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective or www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care
Tertiary Minerals PLC (AIM:TYM, OTC:TTIRF, FRA:TMU) managing director Richard Belcher joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss plans for the company's largest Zambia drilling programme to date as it works towards a maiden JORC resource at the Mushima North silver-copper project. The upcoming 4,000-metre campaign will target the near-surface Target A1 silver oxide discovery, where recent drilling returned standout results including 97 metres at 56g/t silver equivalent. Belcher also highlighted the project's exploration target of up to 58 million silver-equivalent ounces, the potential for low-cost open-pit mining, and how new drilling and metallurgical work could further unlock value across the broader project area.

In this high-signal PFC Podcast episode, Dennis sits down with Dr. John Wightman — former 24th Special Operations Wing Surgeon, emergency physician, and one of the world's leading experts on blast injuries. Drawing from decades of clinical, combat, and academic experience (including co-authoring a seminal paper on blast injuries just before 9/11 and multiple combat deployments), Dr. Wightman breaks down the unique pathophysiology, recognition, and prolonged field care management of blast lung injury — the often-hidden threat that can kill even when penetrating trauma doesn't.From the physics of the supersonic pressure wave to practical field decisions on tension pneumothorax, ventilation strategies, fluid management, and avoiding air embolism, this is essential listening for medics, operators, and anyone preparing for large-scale combat operations, urban warfare, or confined-space blasts.Key Takeaways:Primary blast lung injury is caused by the blast wave itself — not fragments or being thrown — and creates unique pulmonary contusions, air leaks, and arterial air emboli risks.Most significant blast lung develops within the first 1–6 hours; subtle dyspnea on exertion can be an early warning.MARCH priorities still rule — aggressively rule out (or treat) tension pneumothorax, even bilaterally, before assuming blast lung.Positive pressure ventilation can worsen outcomes (especially air embolism risk) — use judiciously; CPAP or PEEP may be better bridges when possible.PAO₂/FiO₂ ratio (or SpO₂ on room air) helps stratify severity and predict need for advanced support.Tympanic membrane rupture proves blast exposure but is not required for blast lung.Fluid management must be careful — permissive hypotension may be dangerous in blast lung + shock.Don't forget occult blast bowel injury — delayed perforation is real (up to 8 days).Whether you're running a team in Ukraine-style trench warfare, preparing for mass casualty events, or just want to stay on the bleeding edge of combat medicine, this episode delivers critical, actionable knowledge.Chapters:00:43 - John Wightman Introduction: 32 Years as Air Force EM Physician & Blast Injury Expert02:54 - What Is Blast Lung?

New research found little evidence that the scheme had actually widened access to tertiary studies.
New Zealand's seeing renewed growth in international education, with rising demand from both major and emerging markets. Education New Zealand data shows more than 92 thousand international students enrolled last year, up 11% on the year prior. China and India make up almost half of all enrolments. Acting Chief Executive Linda Sissons told Mike Hosking we're sitting at around 80% of our pre-Covid numbers, but the difference between then and now is the focus on value as well as volume. She says we're on track for both, as in the past year we've exceeded their target of export earnings and are sitting just below the target for enrolments.

The coalition government is promising to "repurpose" the millions of tax payer dollars being spent on the fees-free policy for tertiary students. Winston Peters' confirmed the scheme, which has been through a few versions, will be scrapped. It was introduced in 2018, under Jacinda Ardern's government. Back then, students were eligible for their first year of study free and $194 million was paid in fees. Grant Robertson, was Labour's finance Minister when the fees-free policy was brought in and is now Vice Chancellor at the University of Otago. Grant Robertson spoke to Lisa Owen.
Winston Peters has leaked, and the Government has confirmed, that this will be the final year of fees-free support for tertiary students. The support was first introduced as a first year free incentive to help get more young people into further education, and was changed to be final year free last year. The policy has cost almost $350 million a year since it was introduced, but it seems the Government has decided that money is better spent elsewhere.

Jack Henris, President and COO, and Shawn Campbell, CFO of Dakota Gold (NYSE American: DC), both join us for an exploration and development update on their Richmond Hill Oxide Heap Leach Gold Project; located in the historic Homestake District of South Dakota, near existing mining infrastructure. We review all the drill results from 2025 and 2026 that will be incorporated into the upcoming resource estimate and the timeline of key development studies that will feed into updated project economics. We also highlight the upcoming drill program at their Maitland Gold Project, which will lead into an eventual resource estimate. We start off reviewing more broad zones of gold mineralization that were announced from in recent drill results at Richmond Hill. Jack highlighted that the results being intercepted in the Northeast Project area contain much higher grades than the average overall resource grade. These results are encouraging their team to consider trade-off studies for the upcoming Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS), to potentially access these higher-grade areas in the first several years of mining. On April 21, the company announced the 2026 Drill Campaign at the Richmond Hill Oxide Heap Leach Gold Project, which consisted of 109 holes with a combination of infill, expansion and geotechnical drilling. The campaign is expected to be completed in the third quarter of this year, with a steady string of assay results anticipated over the balance of the year. Richmond Hill is one of the largest undeveloped oxide gold resources in the United States being advanced by a junior mining company, with over 6 million ounces of gold and over 60 million ounces of silver moving along the pathway of development into heap leach production as soon as 2029. Principle Projects are on Private Land which equates to a positive attribute for efficient permitting with State and County organizations. The Company will complete a Pre-Feasibility Study for Richmond Hill in the later part of 2026. With the resource expansion drilling in the north intersecting significantly higher grades than resource cutoff. This resource drilling will be complimented with an extensive metallurgical test program, so that the Company will undertake a PFS with a focus on the first ten years of mining. This work will allow the Company to report reserves in 2026 and will inform the Feasibility Study to be completed in the first half of 2027. The Company will launch a 2026 Maitland drill campaign of 5,578 meters (18,300 feet) in 44 holes. The goal of this infill drilling, when combined with historic drill results, will be to define a maiden resource for the Tertiary-aged Unionville gold Zone. Jack and Shawn highlight how these robust gold and silver resources, advantageous site infrastructure, ease of permitting on private land, and robust project economics, point to a future low-cost, long-life mining operation that can deliver high margins and generate meaningful revenues. We also review the potential for a rerating in valuation metrics when looked at through the lens of peer gold developer comparisons.

The Power of Synergy: Mastering Relationships through Personality Alignment The Power of Synergy Gabrielle Cardona: Relationship Coaching & MBTI Functional Mastery The Synergy Formula 1,728x When individuals (values 2, 3, 7) synchronize, power is exponential ($12^3$), not additive. No Neutral Energy: Indifference is negative. No Inertia: You are always moving. The Functional Time-Budget DOMINANT 6-8h Daily AUXILIARY 3-4h Daily TERTIARY 2-3h Daily INFERIOR 1-2h Daily Frameworks A.R.T. (The Foundation) Appreciation • Respect • Trust A.I.M. (The Execution) Ability • Intentions • Motives "We don't add to each other, we augment each other. Synergy is interaction where the combined effect is greater than the sum of separate parts." #MBTI#SelfCare#Psychology Core Question: "What's worse: doing what you're not, or not doing what you are?" life-synergy-coaching.com In this episode of The Power of Synergy, relationship coach Gabrielle Cardona explores how individual psychological "functional orders" dictate our capacity for connection. By moving beyond labels of mental illness toward practical life strategies, Cardona demonstrates how aligning one's lifestyle with their organic nature creates exponential value in both personal and professional spheres. The Foundational Principles of Synergy Synergy is defined not merely as addition, but as the interaction of elements to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate parts. Cardona introduces two non-negotiable laws of human energy: first, there is no neutral energy, as indifference often sustains negativity; second, there is no inertia, meaning individuals are always moving toward, away from, or in synchronization with others. When people synchronize, their collective power becomes exponential rather than additive—a phenomenon where three people with a combined "value" of twelve don't just equal twelve, but twelve to the third power. The Mathematics of Synergy How synchronization transforms individual input into exponential output. Linear Addition 2 + 3 + 7 = 12 → Synergistic Power 12³ = 1,728 "We don't add to each other; we augment each other." Understanding the Functional Order Central to Cardona's coaching is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) framework, specifically the "functional order" of Sensing (S), Intuiting (N), Thinking (T), and Feeling (F). Every individual possesses a hierarchy of these functions: Dominant, Auxiliary, Tertiary, and Inferior. True fulfillment—or "self-actualization"—occurs when a person's daily schedule reflects their natural hierarchy. For instance, an introvert forced into a high-interaction extroverted role may find themselves "perfect on paper" but profoundly unhappy because they are neglecting their dominant intuitive or thinking functions. The Ethics of Self-Care and Support Cardona critiques the modern "Me First" philosophy when it devolves into the neglect or abandonment of others. Instead, she advocates for a "mask first" approach: taking care of oneself with the ultimate intention of providing a higher-quality version of oneself to the community. This involves "getting centered"—maintaining a steady core even when external circumstances are chaotic. To achieve this, individuals should lean on specific support systems based on personality types: Intuitive Feelers for emotional support, Intuitive Thinkers for mental focus, Sensory Judgers for moral stability, and Sensory Perceivers for physical energy. Optimal Daily Energy Allocation Aligning time with psychological function to prevent burnout. Dominant Function6 – 8 Hours Auxiliary Function3 – 4 Hours Tertiary Function2 – 3 Hours Inferior Function1 – 2 Hours The ART of AIM: A Framework for Connection To foster healthy relationships, Cardona introduces the "ART of AIM" acronym. Relationships require Appreciation, Respect, and Trust (ART) directed toward an individual's Ability, Intentions, and Motives (AIM). By understanding that the same behavior can stem from different motivations depending on personality, we can avoid misinterpreting signs and instead move with "intelligence" and "strategy" rather than mere reaction. Key Data Synergy Multiplier: Synchronization results in power to the third power (e.g., three people at level 9 result in 19,683 units of output). Personality Rarity: INTP types represent approximately 3% of the population. Functional Time-Boxing: To maintain health, one should spend 6-8 hours on their dominant function and no more than 1-2 hours on their inferior function. To-Do / Next Actions Identify your personality profile to understand your natural functional hierarchy. Audit your daily schedule to ensure 6-8 hours are spent engaging your dominant function. Apply the "ART of AIM" by consciously trusting the motives and respecting the intentions of those you work with. Remove yourself from toxic situations temporarily to get "centered" through positive affirmations and personal space. Identify your support system by matching your needs (emotional, mental, moral, physical) to the corresponding personality types in your life. Conclusion True synergy is achieved when we stop trying to "fix" ourselves or others and instead start reading the underlying patterns of identity. By honoring our organic nature and allowing others the space to do the same, we transform human interaction from a source of friction into an exponential force for success.

Tertiary Minerals PLC (AIM:TYM, OTC:TTIRF, FRA:TMU) managing director Richard Belcher talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's latest exploration progress at the Mushima North project in Zambia, where a significant silver equivalent exploration target has been outlined. Belcher described the potential upper range of 58 million ounces of silver equivalent at target A1 as “a fantastic milestone” for the company, particularly given that the discovery was only made just over a year ago. He explained that this early-stage success highlights the rapid advancement of the project and its growing importance within the company's portfolio. The discussion also focused on the exploration upside at Mushima North, with Belcher noting that the target remains open in multiple directions and at depth. He highlighted that recent drilling efforts, although cut short by the rainy season, delivered the best intercepts to date, including both strong silver values and high-grade copper mineralisation. Looking ahead, the company is preparing to resume drilling, with a focus on expanding the known mineralisation and increasing geological confidence ahead of a maiden mineral resource estimate targeted by the end of 2026. Metallurgical studies and infill drilling will form key components of this next phase. Belcher also emphasised that target A1 is just one of several drill-ready prospects in close proximity, stating there is “lots of upside to go chasing” across the broader project area.

Strong growth in university enrolment numbers is bringing challenges for the tertiary sector. Seven of our eight universities are up on last year in some form, with Auckland recording its biggest-ever Semester One intake. Universities New Zealand Chief Executive Chris Whelan says the growth is in line with their forecasts, but it's unfortunately above where Government projections had been and where funding is. He told Mike Hosking two thirds of all jobs in the economy now require you to have at least two years of post-school education. Whelan says higher education needs funding, so that people are able to get the necessary qualifications, and the skills and knowledge that comes with them.

Jack Henris, President and COO, and Shawn Campbell, CFO of Dakota Gold (NYSE American: DC), both join me for a visual overview of the key 2025 initiatives achieved, and look ahead to the key exploration and development workstreams for 2026 that will feed into updated economics on their Richmond Hill Oxide Heap Leach Gold Project. We also outline the long-term optionality of their Maitland Gold Project, which will also being receiving some exploration work and maiden resource this year. Both projects are located in the historic Homestake District of South Dakota, near existing mining infrastructure. Richmond Hill is one of the largest undeveloped oxide gold resources in the United States being advanced by a junior mining company, with over 6 million ounces of gold and over 60 million ounces of silver moving along the pathway of development into heap leach production as soon as 2029. Principle Projects are on Private Land which equates to a positive attribute for efficient permitting with State and County organizations. The 2026 Richmond Hill drill campaign includes a total of 15,481 meters (50,790 feet) of drilling in 109 holes. Infill drilling will convert inferred to measured and indicated resources for the initial 10 year mine plan area, expansion drilling will focus on the north Project area, and condemnation drilling will test areas for infrastructure suitability to ensure optimal site design for the Feasibility Study. All drilling required for the purpose of the Feasibility Study is expected to be completed by Q3 2026. The Company will complete a Pre-Feasibility Study for Richmond Hill in the second half of 2026. With the resource expansion drilling in the north intersecting significantly higher grades than resource cutoff. This resource drilling will be complimented with an extensive metallurgical test program, so that the Company will undertake a PFS with a focus on the first ten years of mining. This work will allow the Company to report reserves in 2026 and will inform the Feasibility Study to be completed in the first half of 2027. The Company will launch a 2026 Maitland drill campaign of 5,578 meters (18,300 feet) in 44 holes. The goal of this infill drilling, when combined with historic drill results, will be to define a maiden resource for the Tertiary-aged Unionville gold Zone. Jack and Shawn highlight how these robust gold and silver resources, advantageous site infrastructure, and robust project economics, point to a future low-cost, long-life mining operation that can deliver high margins and generate meaningful revenues. We review how the higher-grade mineralization that is being delineated through drilling in the northeast corner may accelerate the economics and shorten the payback period outlined in the SK 1300 Initial Assessment with Cash Flow from last year. We look at how higher underlying metals prices affect the economic sensitivities of this project in a major way. We review the potential for a rerating in valuation metrics when looked at through the lens of peer gold developer comparisons.

Podcast SEO and monetization strategies tailored for local businesses is today's episode discussion. Favour Obasi-ike emphasizes the importance of metadata, noting that elements like podcast titles, descriptions, and author names serve as critical search signals for discovery.By treats these fields as structured data, creators can establish local authority and ensure their content surfaces in specific user queries across platforms like Spotify and Apple Podcasts.The source further highlights the compounding value of backlinking, explaining how consistent episode releases create a vast network of searchable links that drive traffic back to a brand's website. Ultimately, the text argues that a well-optimized podcast acts as a long-term intellectual property asset that builds credibility and solves audience problems through searchable, evergreen audio content.In the 2026 search ecosystem, local visibility is no longer a matter of chance; it is a matter of engineering. This episode serves as a strategic blueprint for local businesses to command "page dominance" by transforming audio content into a high-authority digital asset. By deploying a "spread map" strategy—scaling influence from local roots to international authority—business owners can ensure their brand is the definitive answer to specific consumer queries.The objective is to move beyond the "hobbyist" mindset and treat podcasting as a capital-efficient SEO machine. We explore how to build an "engine" that runs independently via technical metadata and RSS syndication, allowing your brand to reside permanently in the search database.Key Takeaways for Local Business Owners1. Metadata is Your Search ID: Your title, author field, and description must match the exact phrases your customers use. If your "ID" doesn't match the search query, the algorithm cannot process your "legal documents," and your business remains invisible.2. Exploit the 50x50 Rule: Syndication is a volume game. By appearing on 50 platforms, you create thousands of high-authority backlinks. This sheer volume of structured data makes your brand unavoidable in local searches.3. Implementation over Information: ROI is the result of action, not note-taking. Podcasting is a long-term index fund for your brand; the earlier you start the "audio documentation," the more interest your digital legacy accrues. Move from "doer" to "architect" today.Need to Book An Appointment?>> Book a Complimentary SEO Discovery Call with Favour Obasi-Ike>> Visit Work and PLAY Entertainment website to learn about our digital marketing services>> Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community>> Read SEO Articles>> Subscribe to the We Don't PLAY Podcast>> Purchase Flaev Beatz Beats OnlinePodcast Timestamps[00:00:00] – The Spread Map: Establishing the strategic journey from local business to international brand authority.[00:03:00] – Statistical Authority: Reviewing personal benchmarks (600 episodes, 156 countries) as a model for growth.[00:06:00] – The Harry Potter Paradox: Why naming your show for the "benefit" is the only way to be found before you are famous.[00:10:00] – The Psychology of Blue Links: Why "Blue Links" signify trust and confidence in the search results.[00:14:00] – Spotify Signal Case Study: Using the phrase "workout habits for men over 40" to identify exact-match search signals.[00:22:00] – Compounding Link Math: The 50x50 breakdown of how to generate 2,500 links across platforms like SiriusXM and iHeart.[00:31:00] – The Celese Interaction: Overcoming ADHD and task-paralysis by choosing documentation over perfection.[00:45:00] – The Legacy Challenge: Transitioning from a task-based worker to a legacy-based brand architect.The Mathematics of Syndication & The "Compounding Effect"Strategic dominance is a function of Depth and Cadence. While frequency is important, "Depth" is determined by your average episode length. A 60-minute episode provides sixty times more data points for an algorithm to index than a one-minute clip.The true ROI of podcasting is found in the Compounding Link Formula:50 Episodes (One year of weekly audio documentation) x 50 Distribution Platforms (Apple, Spotify, SiriusXM, Podchaser, Castbox, iHeart, etc.) = 2,500 High-Authority BacklinksThis volume creates a "digital balloon that never pops." As you add more helium (content), the structure becomes stiffer and more secure. To maximize this, maintain a Cadence (release cycle) closer to "1" (daily). A faster cadence spins the RSS feed more frequently, signaling to search engines that your brand is an active, relevant authority.The following 15 monetization levers are the tactical parameters required to convert conversational documentation into long-term ROI and a lasting digital legacy.Episode Breakdown on the 15 Monetization StrategiesPART 1: CORE DISCOVERY METADATA (Your Digital ID Card)1. Podcast TitleExecution: Match the show name to the specific topic or core benefit your audience seeks.So What? Listeners search for solutions and interests, not your name. A descriptive title ensures discoverability in search before you have a famous brand.2. Podcast DescriptionExecution: Exploit the full ~4,000-character limit as a "Search Bank." Use refined keywords, clear value propositions, and a strong call-to-action.So What? This is your show's primary Search ID. If it doesn't match user queries, algorithms can't "read" or rank your content effectively.3. Author/Host FieldExecution: Strategically expand your name with professional identifiers (e.g., "Alex Chen | Venture Capital Analyst").So What? This data feeds APIs and LLMs, establishing your niche authority within recommendation systems and digital assistants.4. Genre & Category SelectionExecution: Use platform hierarchies (e.g., ListenNotes, Apple) to select precise Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary categories.So What? Correct categorization moves you from competing with millions of general shows to dominating a specific, interested listener ecosystem.5. Episode TitleExecution: Adopt a clear, "Guest-First" or "Topic-First" naming convention (e.g., "Dr. Sarah Lee: The Neuroscience of Sleep").So What? It maximizes clarity for listeners and SEO. A guest's name at the front captures their audience and amplifies "link juice" to that episode URL.6. Episode DescriptionExecution: Implement web-style formatting: use H2/H3 headers, bullet points, timestamps, and hyperlinks to key resources.So What? Structured data helps both listeners scan and bots "dissect" your content, boosting engagement metrics and canonical linking power.PART 2: VISUAL & TECHNICAL EXECUTION7. Podcast Cover ArtExecution: Command professionalism with compliant, 3000 x 3000 pixels, visually simple art that is legible at thumbnail size.So What? High-quality, optimized art provides an immediate competitive edge against the significant portion of shows using amateur visuals.8. Episode Cover Art (Optional but Powerful)Execution: For key interviews, create guest-centric visuals that differ from your main show art.So What? Visual differentiation in a subscriber's feed signals unique, fresh value, increasing click-through rates for specific high-interest topics.9. Ad Roll PlacementsExecution: Strategically engineer ad breaks: pre-roll (for direct response), mid-roll (for highest attention), post-roll (for brand storytelling).So What? These are primary monetization vehicles. Placement affects listener retention and ad performance by capturing attention at different psychological stages.10. RSS Feed ManagementExecution: Balance your public RSS feed with private, gated feeds (via platforms like Hello Audio or Supercast) for bonus or premium content.So What? Private feeds enable direct community monetization and foster loyalty by delivering exclusive, "trust-based" content to high-value subscribers.PART 3: DISTRIBUTION & AMPLIFICATION11. Email & Affiliate LeverageExecution: Use automated tools to turn podcast transcripts into newsletter content that drives traffic to affiliate offers or key resources.So What? This captures high-intent listeners where they live (their inbox), converting passive listening into measurable action.12. Social Media DistributionExecution: Systematically cross-post short, thematic audio clips (with captions and video) to platforms like LinkedIn and Instagram.So What? It transforms one hour of recording into weeks of "top-of-funnel" awareness, building connection volume and attracting new audiences.13. Backlink GenerationExecution: Understand that every major hosting platform (Spotify, Apple) creates a backlink to your website from your show profile.So What? This generates vital "link juice" from high-authority domains, strengthening your primary website's search engine ranking.14. Website Integration & AnalyticsExecution: Host a dedicated podcast page on your site and connect it to Google Search Console.So What? This allows you to track how people find and interact with your podcast via search, providing data to refine your topic and keyword strategy.15. Sonic Branding (Musical Intelligence)Execution: Deploy a distinct instrumental theme for each season or series.So What? A fresh sonic identity signals a new "era" or focus for your show, boosting production value and maintaining listener retention through auditory novelty.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

So he [00:03:00] says of himself, but enough of the third person. I'm a writer, speaker, minister, and creative thinker, living in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. My most significant role is the founder and president of Theophany Media. A Christian education company dedicated to helping Christians engage with culture through new media.

I also worked at my alma matter as a resident director and bible ta.

So I hope that you enjoy my conversation with Jake Doberenz. Please welcome to the show, Jake Doberenz. Thanks for coming on today. Sure thing, anytime. I'm glad to be here. I really enjoyed being on your [00:05:00] podcast, A creatively Christian, and Andrea interviewed me and then she was on my podcast and I follow your Facebook group and get your. Very humorous email newsletter. And so I thought you were the perfect fit to come on to the podcast. And you're a bible geek like me, and you have a different perspective on life. In the Bible, you find humor in the Bible, which a lot of people don't find the Bible very funny. So welcome to the show. Yeah, I'm glad to be here providing some humor and quite possibly even some wisdom and intelligent comments. We'll see if we get to that part. So you haven't been on the podcast before, so. Tell the folks a little bit about yourself and your family. Okay? Yeah. Always a fun question because where do you [00:06:00] start? Where do you end? But yeah. I am in Oklahoma City right now. I'm an Oregon native and got stuck in Oklahoma. Stuck sounds too negative, but I got planted here. That sounds better. I got my bachelor's degree in biblical studies with a minor in communication studies. I have a Master's of Theological studies and for a while I was kind of going down the Bible professor route. That was gonna be my thing. And it's not like completely off the table right now, but it is not my chief kind of path anymore because there are not a lot of jobs in that area and there's a lot of different things there that make it quite challenging. A lot of schooling, a lot of debt for maybe not so much reward, but we'll see what the future brings. I am still flexing my desires to write and teach. That has always been what I wanted to do, even when the subject changed, even when it [00:07:00] was cat psychology or whatever, I always wanted to write and teach and so I'm still doing that in in different ways. I'm certainly still using my degrees, even though I'll be going into teaching middle school geography this year. Ooh, kind of a new adventure. Add some more skills and weird things on my resume. That's kind of how I do it. So geography. Cool. I think that's me. Yeah. Yeah. That's very brave. Middle school, that particular age, did you pick the age group you were teaching or did they just kind of throw you in there? I applied to high school and middle school. I wasn't going to do anybody under middle school and the high school jobs never called me back. And the, I got some different offerings on the middle school side of thing, so I said, okay, that's what you want me to do. God, I will walk into this wilderness. And then they gave me some kind of choices between, and I chose sixth grade specifically, so I'll be with, with sixth graders. [00:08:00] They, uh, we still have some childlike heart and wonder. They're not so jaded like they get when they're a little older, but they're just mature enough where you can start to get a little more serious. So good age. Hmm. I liked sixth grade. It was a good year. We'll be praying for you either way, because that's a lot of work and mm-hmm. But geography's cool. I like Bible geography. Ever since I went to Israel in 2019. How different reading the Bible is when you've been to those places. Have you been to Israel? I haven't. No, I haven't. Yeah. If you're into geography, you would really love going to Israel for obvious reasons, of course, but geography, it just makes the Bible come alive when you've been to the place where Jesus put legion into the herd of pigs and over the cliff. Sure. And I've been to that cliff, and so you can see it now in your head. It's awesome. Or you've been on the Sea of [00:09:00] Galilee and you can actually imagine Jesus walking on the water and because been in the boat. So, yeah, I'm just getting into being interested in geography right now. There you go. Yeah. Cool. What would you say is your particular specialty as far as Bible goes? Yeah. I did my master's thesis on Paul's view of spiritual formation, specifically from one Corinthians chapter three, verse three. Four, just around there. So that's a very specific kind of thing. Most of my training has actually been more on the New Testament side. Specifically Paul, I've done a lot of more academic work with the use of children as a metaphor in the Bible. I've done work with that in both Paul and the Gospels. Sexuality in the New Testament has been something I've kind of explored. [00:10:00] Nowadays though, I have more of theological interests and I'm asking some different kinds of questions. You don't divorce theology from the Bible, but they're just different kinds of questions and different kinds of, and ways and sources for that. But in terms of Bible, yeah, a lot of studying Paul and a lot of thinking about sort of how he makes arguments and specifically like in that thesis, it was all about how he used this metaphor about. Being an infant in Christ, what does all that mean? And how does that reflect how we grow as people? And so I've gone down those kind of rabbit trails a lot my my day. That's really interesting. A Paul's usually a favorite Bible character. Most people, though you can, you never go wrong with the Apostle Paul now. So today we're talking about Bible study for abuse survivors. And reason why we're doing this is because when we've gone through abuse, usually there's some spiritual [00:11:00] abuse involved and we want to distance ourself from God because we've experienced that spiritual abuse and that affects our relationship with God. And a lot of people once they leave or get out of the abuse. Then they're like, okay, I don't wanna read the Bible, I don't wanna pray, and I don't wanna go to church anymore. I don't trust anybody. But I'm trying to encourage on this podcast to come and if you have questions, let's talk about the questions. So, so I've kind of answered my own question, why should we study the Bible for ourselves? But what would you say to that or add to that? Yeah, I think what I would add to that is that, um, one thing that our teachers or pastors or scholars don't have is that they're not you. You are yourself and you come with your experiences and you come [00:12:00] with your own personality and identity, and you are gonna often pick up things that other people might miss, or you're gonna just sort of focus on things more realize as a thread of a theme or something like that. We, we shouldn't come to the Bible biased necessarily, or with too many preconceived notions. 'cause then the text starts to say what we want it to say. That's not what I'm saying. But we do bring ourselves to the text and we have to admit that like, I'm not reading this in a vacuum. I'm reading this because of who I am and what I've experienced and all these things like that. And I think that's really powerful. And I think the Bible is, it's strong enough to take it. Like it's not about pulling whatever meaning you want from it, like I said, but it is about seeing things that are hidden in this multi-layered onion like text here that has so much stuff in it that we can't expect. Even a really smart [00:13:00] guy to just know everything. So yeah, we gotta study the Bible for ourselves. We gotta do our own digging and our own reading. See what we can find. Yeah, I like that answer. Bringing yourself to the table that's. Different than what somebody else would bring to the table. So let's start with something everybody asks about. When it comes to Bible study, you go to the bookstore and you're trying to pick out a Bible, and there's a gazillion different Bible versions out there, and too many versions, in my opinion. Which one do I pick? Does it matter? At the end of the day, it probably doesn't matter. There are those that are better than others, and I'm the term better here. You can use that in different ways. I'm using the term better as in. More accurate to the text, although, hey, we are translating language here. [00:14:00] Translation is an art, not a science, which makes us a little uncomfortable. We can still get that meaning across. You're a, you're an artist and you're a creative. You can still communicate accurately and faithfully even through a song or something like that. And so in the same way, translation is a little bit of an art form and there are people that have to choose certain words, and I think this means that. So yeah, there are some that are more quote unquote scholarly and others that are more paraphrased, like the message, or it's something like the amplified Bible that is just trying to sort of squeeze some more possible meaning out there by becoming like glorified the Sorut. So you got some different options. Most readings are probably not gonna hurt you, at least. As long as you understand like kind of what's going on here. I know in the past the King James has had the word unicorns in it and that that threw some people off and then later we're like, actually we should have translated that. Like Gazelle was not supposed to be translated unicorn. So [00:15:00] okay, we can get some things here that might throw some people off, but as long as we kind of give some grace to the translators, something like the King James is older and we have some different data. We have some older manuscripts that we're pulling from now. So yeah, it's gonna be a little bit more closer to what the originals were saying kind of thing. So yeah, there are those considerations, but I don't think you're gonna make or break your faith if you read the ESV over the NRSV or something like that. Yeah, well I came from a camp that, uh, they were very definitive in what Bible you should read and which ones you should not read and Sure. And they were very dogmatic in that I've changed my stance since then. Because I've actually dug into that sort of thing that okay, you, so you're saying that most of the mainline translations out there, we will still get the main [00:16:00] point of what Bio was trying to say. Right. Yeah, I don't know any that are too left field and crazy or something like that. There are versions, like, I could be wrong about this, but I think the Jehovah's Witness has versions of the Bible that seem to play a little fast and loose with some things and have cut out some different stuff. So obviously I wouldn't necessarily recommend that for Christians. The only other thing I would say is make sure a bunch of different people were involved. Most translations are. Large groups of people. And then you have things like I mentioned the message that Eugene Peterson did, it was just him, but he wasn't necessarily trying to make a definitive thing. That's more of a paraphrase translation, which is like a devotional rather than something to study. So there are just different uses for all these different things. There are, I could go into the weeds. My dad used to own a Christian bookstore. Oh. And so you have your thought for thought translations and then you have your word for word. And [00:17:00] some people think word for word is better because it's more accurate. But the thing, the problem is the Bible might literally say X, but when we translate that word to today, it makes no sense because language is weird like that. And then so the thought for thought is going to be more of an interpretation, but they're trying to say, okay, but what this is trying to say is this and, and here's a thought that you can digest and that makes sense to you. So it's just kind of what you want, but thanks to the internet. In fact, on another screen here, I have pulled up Bible gateway.com. That's what I use a lot. You can look through all sorts of different translations and compare and contrast. If I really wanted to study with more than one, it's legal in most states, so go for it. It's funny you mentioned the message because that was my first Bible when I got saved. My okay friend that I met in high school, I told her I had gotten saved and I didn't have a Bible, and she gave me the message, which [00:18:00] was her Bible, and I loved it. Oh yeah. I highlighted that thing and Oh yeah. And I just tore it up with underlining and I couldn't wait to read it. And then of course you get to Bible college and they tear it out of your hands, so yeah. But yeah, I like the ESV today. I have. A really nice archeology study Bible I bought and I've, I've read the King James most of my Christian life. And switching to another translation was really eye-opening. All this different stuff that I hadn't seen before just popped out, like I didn't know the Bible said that. Wow. It's pretty neat. So along the same lines, do we have to be a Greek and Hebrew scholar to understand the Bible? I hope not because I struggled through Greek and barely made that alive, and so languages are not my strong [00:19:00] suit. Uh, but I think the answer is of course, no. You don't have to be. It depends on what kind of study you're doing, and I probably should have mentioned that earlier, but there's a way to look at the Bible in an academic, scholarly way, and there are some Christians that. Think that's wrong or bad? I don't think it's bad. It's just one way to look at it. When I am in scholarship, when I'm writing this college paper, I am, I have to kind of slice and dice it and I'm doing a work that an atheist could do. It's that kind of work. But then there's another way to look at the Bible that is much more pastorally or for spiritual formation, the kind of thing that treats the text as sacred that an atheist can't do. So if you're doing the academic work, it really helps to know the words because you're trying to get as precise as possible and getting into there. But luckily for us, other people have done the work for us and we have these English translations, so woo. You don't need to know Hebrew and Coin a Greek and [00:20:00] a little bit of Aramic and like Daniel or whatever. Like we don't have to know that because somebody else has done the work for us. And I mentioned already like. There's a lot of people involved in a Bible translation, not just one guy. It's, a lot of people have done this work and they've argued and yelled at each other and come to some conclusions to say, this is the best we can do right now. This is what we got. So, yeah, we don't have to, we don't have to be language PS so, woo. Lucky. Yes. Yeah. I mean, I'm a language geek. I love languages. Personally, I speak two languages besides English, but I haven't taken any Greek or, or Hebrew, maybe someday, but they didn't cover that in my Bible college. But it's good that we already have the tools online that, hey, this is a translation for that word in. There's really no, no real argument about it is there along mainline denominations. Yeah. Most people probably aren't gonna tell you. You have to know all those languages unless somebody there. There are groups of people that would say [00:21:00] the only inspired text of the Bible is the actual original Greek and Hebrew. And so our English translations are not inspired. But that's a minority view. That's not super common. Yeah. Yeah. The most people can understand. The inspiration still comes through, even when it's translating different languages. The word of gods for the whole world, not just those that can speak actually dead languages that nobody speaks today like Latin. Yeah. So now we're gonna get into the nitty gritty here. Okay. When we are sitting down with our Bible and we're deciding to. Study a passage of scripture or maybe a book. What are some basic rules of interpretation? Now we use the fancy big word hermeneutics, but like the basic ones that you really shouldn't ignore in order to. Do a proper Bible study. This is one that gets definitely drilled [00:22:00] into in Bible school and in other contexts, but it's that actual, it's a word context like context is key. Context is king, and one of the best things we can do is zoom out. So if we're looking at a particular scripture. Like one verse, we zoom out to the chapter. Those headings or whatever aren't like God inspired or whatever, but they're helpful to kind of see what the flow of things are. Then we can zoom out to the book level and sometimes zoom out to the biblical level and things like that. But that is always key. Sometimes we get into trouble thinking that the Bible is just like, the whole thing is like Proverbs, where everything's just disconnected and you got these good one-liners and they're fun and they're good zingers, but most of it is some kind of story or, and Paul, I mentioned that being some of my background, Paul's letters are arguments they build on top of each other, and so you can see if we're trying to look at something wild like. One [00:23:00] Corinthians 14 or something, we can understand it because by just kind of going a little backwards and Oh, okay. So that's always really important. And a lot of times authors in the Bible will also tell us kind of their themes and tell us what they really want us to get across. The gospel of John, for instance, is written so that we may believe Luke talks about writing in a, an orderly account of things. So we have some of these statements that if we zoom out a little bit, oh, okay, we can make sense of this in light of that. And so different things like that. But we could go all day into the hermeneutics and then the other fancy word, X of Jesus and that kind of stuff. But at the end of the day, a tool anybody can use is something I learned in elementary school when there was a hard word. It was called rat read around the text. Read around the text. Ooh, that's the acronym there. And that just helps us understand, wait, what is going on? What does Paul mean when he says this? Why is [00:24:00] this guy saying this in judges? Let's take a look. What else is going on here? So it's just a great tool that anybody can use be if they can just zoom out a little bit and read the rest of the Bible and the rest of the passage. Everybody gives a different answer to that question. Now, obviously when we read the Bible, we come upon these passages or some of the stories that are either difficult to understand or it's a topic that we don't wanna deal with. It's really hard to swallow. Like a lot of times it's the genocide passages, of course. Mm-hmm. And or similar things like that. What do we do when we encounter those passages? Yeah. There are also passages that are sometimes called, and the genocide fits into this, but passages called texts of terror. A lot of passages about different abuse situation, and [00:25:00] I won't go into all of those, but I'm sure a lot of us can come up with some things that mm-hmm. Can be triggering in the Bible that seem just really messed up and stuff like that. So I think what's important, first of all is we recognize the, the gut feeling, the awkwardness talk to the beginning about how I see humor in the Bible and I do, I think there are some things in the Bible that we should laugh at. It's actually hilarious. Tell us about what Jonah gets swallowed by a big fish. That's funny. You should be laughing. And it's hilarious that he wants this city destroyed and he's supposed to be a prophet of God and he's not doing his job description and stuff like that. So like. When it's funny, we should laugh and when it's not funny, when it's uncomfortable, we should be okay being uncomfortable. I, I remember when I did college ministry for a time, we talked about the story of, oh man, I can't remember if it's Eli, I think it's Elijah. [00:26:00] And when they make fun of him for being bald and he calls these, she bears to attack these 40 youths, and he, this kid would kid could not get over it. He's like, why is this in the Bible? This is ridiculous. And I just tried to help him. Yeah, let's feel that first. Let's feel that, oh boy, we got some emotions here. So step one, I think it's totally okay to feel those things and then we can do some digging. Again, it's that zooming out. Let's look at the context here. Let's look what's going on there. A lot of times I think some of these texts of terror or uncomfortable texts, um. Sometimes they're not as bad when we look at it through maybe a historical lens or something, but sometimes we can't just justify them really nice and neatly, like some of the stuff about genocide. So ultimately, I have to go back to Jesus because. Jesus is the ultimate expression of God. It is the best [00:27:00] lens into the divine that we've ever seen. It's through this person of Jesus. And so sometimes we got to use our Jesus magnifying glass and look over the scripture and say, that's awkward. I don't like that very much. This makes me, this triggers me. This is, uh, but we put Jesus over and say, but through Christ, we don't have to live like that. We can recognize that there. There are plenty of examples of what not to do in the Bible. Jesus calls us to a different way and Jesus shows us that some things that maybe people thought were really godly and divine at certain points were not. So at the end of the day when things make us uncomfortable, I say feel it. But then ultimately, let's just go back. What does Jesus say? And if Jesus words are kind of. Don't seem to jive with this other crazy stuff going on here. Let's just, let's follow Jesus over some of this, [00:28:00] this other uncomfortable things. Hmm. So it's probably not a satisfying answer, but that's kind of like the point, like we try too hard sometimes to wrap everything in a pretty bow, but sometimes we just can't. With the Bible, the Bible is complicated and that's what makes it powerful. It's not always so neat and tidy and doesn't always make you feel good. It is a like Christ. It is both human, fully human and fully divine. And in that there's some awkward tension. There are some, there are human emotions and human things that that bleed through the divine pages of scripture. I appreciate the honest answer and yeah, I think that was a great answer. It was just reading through the patriarchs and wow, you just wrap your head around how much they messed up. And that's not how God wanted us to live. That's just an example of God just lets [00:29:00] everybody see how these people messed up. But still, God used them in a mighty way. God still gave them grace and forgiveness and love and mercy. I was just on Twitter and that's a dangerous place is Christian Twitter. Oh my goodness. And there was a big thread about some people, they didn't believe that Jesus was the same God as the God of the Old Testament. They cut the line because they thought Jesus over here in the New Testament, his attribute seems so different than. The God of the Old Testament. I don't necessarily agree with that, but that was an interesting concept. That's how they dealt with those horrible stories. I'm just gonna just trust in Jesus and just believe in Jesus and throw everything else away. Yeah. That's a heresy in the second century that, um, yeah. You know, unfortunately haven't quite gotten rid of completely, but is that's what that's called still alive and, [00:30:00] yeah. Oh, that's what you call it. Okay. There's your little fun little historical theology trivia, but yeah, there's probably a word for it. But that goes into my next question is how do you study the Bible and read it and make sure that you're not slipping into some heretical teaching, because I personally know some people that they believe some stuff that's way off base that nobody else. And mainline Christianity believes in, but they're like quoting Bible verses and taking them outta context. How do we avoid going down that path? Yeah, yeah. I had a youth minister who used to joke that if you wanted to, he could justify kicking babies across the room from scripture. Like that was just his wild example because yeah, people can kind of justify the whole gambit of things. So I think now we talked about why it's important to study the Bible for yourself. [00:31:00] At the same time though, I think this living, breathing scripture. Is something that we must read through community. You can do your own work, do your own prep, but ultimately the Bible belongs to all of us. And so we need to read in community. And that can mean your pastors and teachers and your scholars. It can also mean your neighbor and your friend and your kids and your mom and your cousin from a couple states away. But it can also mean dead people, not like seance or whatever, but like, um-ing, you know, read these old preachers and read the church fathers and the church mothers and like, we got 2000 years of Christian history here. There's some wild stuff, but there's some good stuff too. So I say we read scripture in community and you come to your own conclusions. Don't just copy paste whatever Mr. X, Y, Z says, but. What do they [00:32:00] think? And when we start looking at, oh, Christians have kind of seemed to think this for a long time, probably a direction we should lean in. I don't know. I guess people could be wrong, but the way the spirit works I think is a lot of times through community. And it's a way to check, it's a checks and balance for ourselves. So I think that sometimes we can get a little, a little wild with our own interpretations, but we bring in other people. What do you think? Did you see this too? Is this accurate? Is this, does this fit in with historical context of first century Palestine? Or whatever kind of questions you want to ask community. So that's flesh and blood people, but that's also books and podcasts and all sorts of things. I just think we're made to be together. And honestly, when I studied Paul's view of spiritual formation for my thesis, I didn't get to dive into it too much, but what I kept coming across is spiritual formation is not a. You on your own [00:33:00] kind of thing. It is something that happens with people who are this great cloud of witnesses that is cheering you on and it's helping you out. So I think that's a great way to kind of check, check ourselves, and then of course, use your brain. Let's be logical here that scripture probably not actually talking about America because it was written 3000 years ago. I don't know. Thank you. Um, so, so stuff like that, we gotta use our brains. Yeah. I like when you talk about community, because I think, and I've seen this before people go off the rails, is that they're isolating themselves. Mm-hmm. They don't wanna go to church because they don't trust, they don't trust people that they've been hurt. But even if we can't drag ourselves to church just yet in our healing process, yeah. There are other ways to create community and checks and balances. So that's a really good point. We really don't want [00:34:00] to be that guy that started his own denomination on a couple bible verses. Yeah, we got plenty of denominations. I think we're set for a little bit, so let's just chill out for now. Yeah, that's crazy. So like if we're in a community, we're under our Bible teacher or a pastor or Sunday school class, what would be like a red flag that would put your antennas up? Hey, you may wanna check this out for this preacher teacher saying is not a good thing. Are there any like red flags that you would look for? I think arrogance is definitely a big red flag. Ooh, good one. And that is how you get into spiritual, spiritually abusive situations. Definitely. And what I mean by arrogance is people that are not willing to be corrected, not willing to admit the wrong, not willing to learn. I was privileged to have professors where I was getting my Bible degrees. People with [00:35:00] PhDs from the prestigious British universities who would listen to student comments and be like, that's really interesting. Or, heard it like that. Tell me more about that. And one of my Hebrew Bible professors spoke like nine languages. Most of those are dead ones. And still he's curious to know what these 20-year-old college students are thinking. Which is wild because he is way smarter than us. But he is. These guys were adopting this posture of, I can learn from anybody here. I want your perspective. And I could be wrong. We gotta have some things where we have a firm foundation and where we don't sway. We absolutely have to have those. There are some people these days that I think sort of lean too heavily into the wishy-washy. It depends on the day, what I'm feeling, cafeteria style Christianity. We can't do that. But we also can't go over here where it's, I figured it out when I was 30 years old, when I was 40 years old, and now I'm like, [00:36:00] done. I'm done learning. Got it right. I to be the only one to get it right. And that's how denominations start, right? Ooh, everybody else got it wrong all the time. Now I'm right. So that's dangerous. So let's learn from people who are themselves. Learners who are willing to be challenged and to ask questions and wanna know your take on things. I know from being in ministry settings that oftentimes I am the guy with the more Bible degrees than most people in the room. But then there'll be these 70-year-old church ladies who have lived this and they've been in the Bible their whole life. I can learn from them. Mm-hmm. They have something to say, even though they've never read the text in Greek. They have something to add to the conversation. Mm-hmm. So we need to be learners. I love that. That is so awesome and so very true. The Holy Spirit speaks to each of us individually and gives us different [00:37:00] lessons and we can share those lessons. Now, you as a scholarly person, you must have some favorite resources that you use to study the bible. Can you recommend some specific resources that are maybe easy to use? Yeah, there's a couple websites, Bible gateway, I mentioned that already. They have. Some free commentaries and bible encyclopedias and things kind of on the sidebar there. So as you're looking to scripture, you could glorify and study Bible or have access to chunks from different commentaries. And for a while, while I was doing some more preaching, I actually did the paid, there's a kind of a paid version that it was like five bucks a month or something really cheap like that. It just got access to more things so I can have the scripture here and then all my resources next to it. And that was handy. Bible hub.com is also another one. [00:38:00] Um, that one's especially good if you do wanna look at the language stuff, knowing that you're not a scholar, you can say, but what is that Greek word? And you can click on it and it will show you the definitions, show you other places in scripture it's used. You can kind of get a feel for that. So that's a really good one for people who are not, who don't know the languages or. Like me who always needed help with my Greek homework or something like that. So yeah, those come to mind. But man, like we are, we at our fingertips. There's a lot of good stuff out there. A lot of bad stuff, no doubt. But there are podcasts and all sorts of books and there's just, there's a lot of good stuff there. Wouldn't even know where to begin, just sort of thinking broadly. But I think Bible gateway, Bible hub, easy. Anybody can access those for free. And you don't necessarily need a giant library or really expensive commentary sets 'cause they're really expensive. Yeah. That's why my parents get me one commentary for my birthday and [00:39:00] for Christmas each year. And so in 50 years I'll have the full set or whatever. That's not true. That's, it'll actually probably be. I can't do the math however it takes to get 66 books. But anyway. Wow. All I had in bible college that we were allowed to have is Matthew Henry commentary, which is kind of on the dry side. Yeah. Most Bible professors would pass out hearing you say that. It's not bad stuff, but bad, but it's not, it's not easy to read it's thing, let's just say. Yeah. And we were allowed to read Weirs, BE'S books. It's a pretty good series about where I came from. John MacArthur's commentaries were like hearsay. Oh, okay. The Baptist didn't like the, at least the churches that I was in, they didn't like MacArthur's stuff, but, and I had the actual strong concordance. I still own that's, yeah, sure. So sort of a free way to get that, besides if you don't want to get a giant [00:40:00] volume. Yeah. I like to read the physical books too. Sure. Nothing, not knocking the physical. But yeah, if people are on a budget, yeah, people are on a budget and you can't go and buy those big, huge coffee table books. Or if you're near a Christian university, see if you can get a library card that's, they have tons of stuff. I can walk in there and there are a whole shelf of like Genesis commentaries or whatever. It could be information overload. But also I can, I'll pick up a couple different volumes of different perspectives and I'll read what they each have to say about the verse or chapter I'm dealing with and I can kind of synthesize a conclusion. And that's how you do it. Yeah. I'll also mention, I, we were allowed to. Listen on the radio, Jay Vernon McGee and yeah, he was definitely expository. He [00:41:00] would go verse by verse and go through the entire Bible verse by verse, which I thought was really good. And I don't agree with everything he said, but that's the way I learned a lot of stuff was through verse by verse radio program back in the day. Mm. I'm dating myself, aren't I? It's all good here. All good. No, we talked a lot about a bunch of different stuff. Is there anything about Bible study that we didn't talk about that you would like to mention? I know there's so much, uh, yeah, I just touched on it a little bit, but I kind of wanna bring it back. Look at different views than yours. If you are really charismatic, then look at something that's not quite charismatic, or if you are. I won't go. I'll skip all those differences. You know what? You are read some of the stuff that's a little different. Stuff that challenges you. That's how we grow. That's how we grow, [00:42:00] is to hear something a little different. And the thing is, you're not required to believe it. Right. You can just read it and at least know what they're saying. I know in my Christian upbringing, and not necessarily I was intentional, but I only knew my side of the argument. Or if I knew somebody else's argument, it was this straw man version that was just not accurate. And then I, you go to the big wide world and be like, oh wait, there are lots of different views. And those people are actually smart and they have things to say about this, but somebody else is the opposite and they're also a smart person. What's going on? It's just good to expose ourselves to different things. In most cases we could, we, you can choose your own boundaries and things like that. Mm-hmm. It doesn't mean if you're studying something in the Old Testament, you have to read the Jewish and the Muslim and the Mormon view of what. It doesn't mean you have to go there, but just check out some different things. Have your favorite commentaries. Do it, but every once in a while [00:43:00] peek into your, your local heretic and see what they have to say. I dunno, maybe not a heretic, somebody who's a little different. You, you, your istic. Yeah. Our last guest was talking about Calvinism and stuff, but yeah, doesn, excellent suggestion because I definitely was in my own camp for many years until I got out of my abusive situation and started looking into other views and I have since changed nothing major. I didn't change any major views, but I realized that okay, there are other Godly people. Now I see they can use scripture to defend their position too. And there's a little bit of wiggle room in there for sure. Sure. For different viewpoints. I went and did a study and looked at somebody else's view on a tertiary argument. Sure. Tertiary doctrine. It's not a doctrine of the faith, but [00:44:00] something that's very important and it's like, okay, I'm not gonna be judgmental. And that was hard for me to change my viewpoint. Yeah, yeah. But they gave me really great scriptural evidence. So yeah, that's kind of a sideline, but you made excellent point. But anyway, I appreciate you sharing all this valuable information and your view, viewpoint, and it's fascinating. Everybody has different answers for these questions. I've asked everybody the same questions. Right. And they're all giving me different answers, which I think that's very helpful. Oh yeah. Yeah. Very helpful. Yeah, getting people exposed to different things and again, like I am me and you are you, and we're different. And that's the point. Like we all come together with our different focuses and our different backgrounds and knowledge, and together we are the body of Christ. Amen. And that's beautiful. So tell the folks [00:45:00] how people can connect with you and you have resources and maybe if they wanna play stump the Bible teacher, they can email you. Yeah, you can find that all about me@jakedobern.com. D-O-B-E-R-E-N-Z as in zebra. And that's kind of my home base on the interwebs. If you do jake dovers.com/email, you can get on my email list that was mentioned earlier where I talk about. Funny stories from my life that have spiritual points, and I bring out spiritual points from that. And yeah, you can definitely contact me through social media or email, and that's all on my website there. So I'll let you track me down and tell me how wrong I am and all of that kind of stuff. That's fun. It comes with the territory, so totally okay with that. And then lastly, I do a bunch of work with Christian creatives, with Fiani [00:46:00] Media, and as was mentioned, I produce the Creatively Christian podcast. So I would love for you to check that out if that's kind of your thing, if that's your area. Yeah. You guys have a real great variety of guests on that show. It's not just one particular kind of art. You guys represent a lot of different ones, which is fun. Oh yeah. And we're trying to get more variety all the time. Awesome. Now. I don't usually have guests pray on the show, but would you pray for our listeners in their journey in the scriptures? Of course. Let's go ahead and pray. Heavenly God, we come to you in prayer on this podcast episode and we ask that whoever's listening now in the future, in a couple years, where wherever we are, that, that we can be receptive to how you speak to us through scripture and through our [00:47:00] communities that help us see scripture. Let the spirit guide us as we dive into this sacred but sometimes confusing and complicated documents. Lord, I ask that you give us the wisdom to be able to rightly divide your word and to remain faithful even when our own preferences might wanna lean in a different direction. Lord, thank you so much for the ministry of this podcast. We pray that people continue to have healing and continue to find themselves in a better place, both in the world and with you spiritually. In Jesus' name, amen. Amen. Thank you so much for coming on the show. God bless you. Sure thing. God bless you. Thank you for listening to the Wounds of the Faithful Podcast.

John Casmon interviews Justin Spillers, a former real estate attorney turned full-time multifamily investor, about his journey from practicing law to building a vertically integrated value-add multifamily business in Ohio. Justin shares how his first seven-unit deal shaped his confidence, why focusing on tertiary markets along the I-75 corridor gives his team a competitive edge, and how disciplined underwriting plus heavy renovations drive rent growth. He also explains the importance of operational control, unscalable relationship-building tactics, and relentless process improvement in scaling efficiently. The conversation highlights how focus, systems, and creativity have positioned his firm to grow from hundreds of units toward an ambitious long-term goal.

This week on the podcast we examine how Budget 2025 reshapes the university funding model – from the international levy and modest new maintenance grants, to confirmed tuition fee uplifts and changes to pension tax arrangements that will affect institutional costs. We discuss what the package tells us about the government's approach to public finances, the politics of international recruitment, and the sustainability of cross-subsidy in a tight fiscal environment for higher education.Plus we discuss research and innovation announcements and get across debate in Holyrood on the Tertiary Education and Training (Funding and Governance) (Scotland) Bill.With Ken Sloan, Vice-Chancellor and CEO at Harper Adams University, Debbie McVitty, Editor at Wonkhe, David Kernohan, Deputy Editor at Wonkhe and presented by Jim Dickinson, Associate Editor at Wonkhe.Budget 2025 for universities and studentsUniversities now need to be much clearer about the total cost of a courseStudent finance changes in the budget – Director's cutReclassification ghosts and jam tomorrow at stage 2 of Scotland's tertiary billA government running out of road still sets the economic weather for higher educationA change in approach means research may never be the same again

In this episode of Course and Career Chat, I share stories of four students who were unintentionally limiting their choices because of assumptions about what they could or couldn't do.

Danny and Aaron discuss: Definitions around the different levels of care, from primary up to quaternary Specifics around the types of care delivered in the specialized facilities that deliver this care, and The key themes actuaries need to keep in mind when analyzing data that include these types of services.

The information shared is relevant from both a provider and payer point of view, and will broaden your understanding of the unique characteristics of tertiary and quaternary care providers.
As major metros have become too expensive, investors are moving to tertiary markets in order to improve yield, thereby driving up prices in these markets. Smaller markets can be attractive because prices can be 50% less and rents not that much lower. Southern New Hampshire is a great example, as buyers from Boston and other markets are entering this market and paying record prices. Axel Ragnarsson, founder of Aligned Real Estate Partners, buys 10–50-unit value-add apartment buildings in Southern New Hampshire directly from sellers. Southern New Hampshire is a supply constrained, stable market with population and rent growth as residents are moving there from more expensive markets in the Northeast.
In today's episode, we sit down for an exclusive conversation with Miller Matola, CEO of Millvest Advisory — the organization behind the Tourism Investment Forum Africa (TIFA).Now in its third year, TIFA continues to build momentum, and this year's event in Richards Bay, South Africa, reaffirmed its mission: driving tourism investment into Africa's secondary cities.In our conversation, Miller shares why TIFA is more than just a conference — calling it “a global platform for local action” — designed to spotlight development opportunities in often-overlooked secondary and tertiary regions across the continent.
1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be like to ten virgins, who taking their lamps went out to meet the bridegroom and the bride.Tunc simile erit regnum caelorum decem virginibus : quae accipientes lampades suas exierunt obviam sponso et sponsae. 2 And five of them were foolish, and five wise.Quinque autem ex eis erant fatuae, et quinque prudentes : 3 But the five foolish, having taken their lamps, did not take oil with them:sed quinque fatuae, acceptis lampadibus, non sumpserunt oleum secum : 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with the lamps.prudentes vero acceperunt oleum in vasis suis cum lampadibus. 5 And the bridegroom tarrying, they all slumbered and slept.Moram autem faciente sponso, dormitaverunt omnes et dormierunt. 6 And at midnight there was a cry made: Behold the bridegroom cometh, go ye forth to meet him.Media autem nocte clamor factus est : Ecce sponsus venit, exite obviam ei. 7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.Tunc surrexerunt omnes virgines illae, et ornaverunt lampades suas. 8 And the foolish said to the wise: Give us of your oil, for our lamps are gone out.Fatuae autem sapientibus dixerunt : Date nobis de oleo vestro, quia lampades nostrae extinguuntur. 9 The wise answered, saying: Lest perhaps there be not enough for us and for you, go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.Responderunt prudentes, dicentes : Ne forte non sufficiat nobis, et vobis, ite potius ad vendentes, et emite vobis. 10 Now whilst they went to buy, the bridegroom came: and they that were ready, went in with him to the marriage, and the door was shut.Dum autem irent emere, venit sponsus : et quae paratae erant, intraverunt cum eo ad nuptias, et clausa est janua. 11 But at last come also the other virgins, saying: Lord, Lord, open to us.Novissime vero veniunt et reliquae virgines, dicentes : Domine, domine, aperi nobis. 12 But he answering said: Amen I say to you, I know you not.At ille respondens, ait : Amen dico vobis, nescio vos. 13 Watch ye therefore, because you know not the day nor the hour.Vigilate itaque, quia nescitis diem, neque horamSt Rose was the first flower of holiness which bloomed in South America. She was born at Lima in Peru. Too feeble for the monastic life, she lived a life of severe mortification as a Tertiary of St Dominic and died at the age of thirty years. A.D. 1617.

Fundraising for Private Equity and Venture funds has slowed as interest rate have climbed. Stalled exits and reduced distributions have followed. There are 50% fewer venture companies today than just a few years ago. As a result, multiples for acquisition targets have decreased, thereby presenting an opportune time for active funds with capital to acquire companies at attractive prices. Companies in secondary and tertiary markets, in particular, can be very attractive. Mark Flickinger is General Partner and COO of BIP Capital. BIP invests in mid-market early stage companies in the Southeast and Midwest.
In this episode, Dave Dubeau sits down with full-time real estate syndicator Nic Espanet of Flex Equity Group. Nic shares his unique journey from physiotherapist to real estate mogul and breaks down how his team finds and funds multifamily deals in less-competitive Texas markets. Nic dives into the strategies that helped him scale from zero to nearly 800 units, his syndication structure, and how he's navigating today's economic headwinds with creativity and grit. Nic also unpacks his asset management role, how he connects with investors, and why his operations in Abilene have held up stronger than some major metros like Dallas or Houston. With real-world examples and honest talk about the challenges and rewards of multifamily syndication, this is an inspiring and educational conversation for investors at any level. About Nic Espanet: Nic is the founder of Flex Equity Group and a full-time real estate investor based in Fort Worth, Texas. With nearly a decade in multifamily syndication, he's known for identifying strong opportunities in tertiary markets and building efficient, investor-focused operations. - Get Interviewed on the Show! - ================================== Are you a real estate investor with some 'tales from the trenches' you'd like to share with our audience? Want to get great exposure and be seen as a bonafide real estate pro by your friends? Would you like to inspire other people to take action with real estate investing? Then we'd love to interview you! Find out more and pick the date here: http://daveinterviewsyou.com/
Even though the Real Estate market has contracted significantly as a result of interest rate hikes and rising operating expenses, it's still difficult to find great deals, especially in large metros where there's still a lot of money on the sidelines looking for deals. By comparison, it's easier to find cash flowing opportunities in tertiary markets. Brian Ferguson, Founding and Managing Partner at Fergmar Capital Group, lives and invests mostly in his hometown of Victoria, Texas, approximately two hours from Houston, Austin, and Dallas. Brian can buy workforce multifamily buildings for $70,000-$80,000/door and equally enticing prices on small strip centers.
