Margaret Atwood is a Canadian writer. She has published more than sixty books spanning novels, poetry, short stories, non-fiction, children's literature, and graphic novels, and has been called “one of the sharpest and most imaginative novelists writing in English”. She is one of only four writers to have won the Booker Prize twice: for The Blind Assassin in 2000 and for her 2019 follow-up to The Handmaid's Tale, The Testaments.Margaret was born in Ottawa in November 1939, shortly after the outbreak of World War II, the second of three children to Carl Atwood, an entomologist. During her early life, she would spend the warmer months in the remote forests of northern Quebec and Ontario where her father tracked insect infestations, and the winters in the city (first Ottawa, later Toronto). She didn't attend school for a full year until the age of twelve.Her childhood scribblings – a “novel” about an ant called Annie, a volume of rhyming poems about cats, and a play about a giant – turned into a more serious ambition to become a writer when Margaret was sixteen. After studying English at the University of Toronto, where she began publishing poems in the college magazine, her first novel, The Edible Woman, came out in 1969, following five collections of poetry. Her most famous work, The Handmaid's Tale, was published in 1985 and depicted a dystopian vision of the United States as a patriarchal and totalitarian place called Gilead. Although it was written during the Reagan era, it has become eerily relevant again in the wake of the election of Donald Trump. Margaret lost her life partner, the writer Graeme Gibson, in 2019. She lives in Toronto.DISC ONE: Anchors Aweigh - US Navy Band DISC TWO: Hearts of Stone - The Charms DISC THREE: Offenbach: Les contes d'Hoffmann, Giulietta Act: Barcarolle.

I have absolutely no chill about today's episode. I mean it…you might want to grab a notebook, a pen, maybe even two, because this is a full-on mind-blown episode. Rabbi Jason Sobel is a Jewish man who believes Jesus is the Messiah, and the way he connects the dots between the Old Testament and the New? Y'all… it's like watching the story of Jesus go from regular definition to full-on high definition. We're talking about his journey of faith, how we can better understand and connect with Jewish culture, the significance of the number eight (just wait for that part!), and he even gives us the cultural and historical context of the birth of Jesus in a way that will have you sitting there going, “How did I not know this?!” He has served as a spiritual advisor for The Chosen since its inception and you're going to love getting to learn from him. His new book, Transformed By the Messiah, is absolutely beautiful. In your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we're on page 129, so get those note-taking pages ready. . . . . .

We sit with His self-emptying love (kenosis), where humility becomes strength, and find ourselves drawn into shalom - the wholeness, peace, and restoration secured by the cross and resurrection. Pull up a chair and join us on the porch!
In this episode of Relish, hosts Rowan Miller and Don Patterson open with a lighthearted conversation about favorite Bible characters — with Joseph and his coat of many colors serving as a springboard to discuss forgiveness and family dynamics. From there they move into a deeper biblical and historical conversation about the differences between the Old and New Testaments, and what those differences mean for understanding God's character and the person of Jesus. The hosts explain how the Old Testament sets the stage with numerous messianic prophecies and how the New Testament culminates that story in Christ. They emphasize that God's character does not change between Testaments, but that Jesus brings the Old Testament teachings into an intimate, first-person relationship (highlighted by passages such as John 13 and John 15). The episode covers the approximately 400-year period between Malachi and the first Gospel writer, describing it as a time of prophetic silence that prepared Israel for the coming of Christ. Roan and Don discuss extra-biblical writings from that era (including references to the apocryphal Book of Enoch and recommendations for Michael Heiser's scholarship) and note how Roman infrastructure, language, and reach helped Christianity spread rapidly once it began. Practical pastoral concerns are also addressed: what it means to "speak the truth in love" (Ephesians 4), the necessity of deep relationships to make corrective truth meaningful, and the role of church leaders in guiding those conversations. The hosts use real-life anecdotes and pastoral illustrations to show how truth-telling requires both courage and care. They also tackle the harder topic of sin and discipline, using the Old Testament story of Achan to illustrate God's decisive response to disobedience and to argue for the continuing need to confront sin in the church. Personal stories about parental discipline and pastoral preaching underscore the emotional and spiritual weight of these issues. The episode wraps up with lighter holiday banter — Black Friday, shopping online, and well-wishes for listeners — and a closing invitation to share the ministry. Overall, listeners can expect a balanced mix of biblical teaching, historical context, pastoral application, and warm conversational moments from Rowan and Don.

This Thanksgiving-focused message centers on the biblical imperative to give thanks in all circumstances, rooted in the unchanging will of God as revealed in 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18. It emphasizes that gratitude is not contingent on favorable conditions but is a present, ongoing posture of the heart, grounded in profound theological realities: God's eternal goodness and steadfast love, the wonder of creation, the gift of eternal life through Christ's sacrifice, the new birth, the sealing of the Holy Spirit, the certainty of divine purpose, the power of Scripture, the promise of future glory, and the ongoing intercession of Christ. The sermon uses a list of 24 foundational reasons—drawn from Scripture across both Testaments—to remind believers that every moment, whether marked by joy or trial, contains sufficient divine grace and truth to inspire heartfelt thanksgiving. By anchoring the heart in these eternal truths, the message calls the congregation to cultivate a life of continual gratitude, not as a reaction to circumstances, but as a disciplined response to God's unchanging character and redemptive work.
Free Podcast Downloads In my previous episode, 189 The Better Covenant, I made the point that the Bible, both Old and New Testaments, is the inspired Word of God, literally 'God-breathed' (2 Timothy 3:16). From beginning to end, it reveals God's redemptive plan and His covenant relationship with humanity. The two Testaments represent two distinct covenants: the Old Covenant given to Israel through Moses, and the New Covenant given through Jesus Christ to all who believe. Understanding how these covenants connect, and how the New is better than the Old is basic to living in the freedom and grace God offers.
As we start to anticipate the time of Advent and ultimately the birth of Jesus, what are some of the contextual things we should be aware of? Each historical period had an influence on God's people. To kick off the "Advent of Advent" mini-series, we are going back to a conversation I had last year with Dr. George Athas. He is a professor at Moore College and the author of an excellent book Bridging the Testaments. Today we revisit his overview of the major time periods leading up to the Roman Empire's arrival on the scene along with his explanation of Jewish thought that makes the gospels' claim that Jesus is from the line of David so explosive.Listen to the original podcast with Dr. Athas Here: Part 1 and Part 2Find out more about Dr. Athas HERERead more about his book HERESee his many other writings HEREContact Cyndi Parker through Narrative of Place.Join Cyndi Parker's Patreon Team!
G'day Mates! I hope you enjoy this interview as much as I did!Michael Bull is an Australian author, theologian, and graphic designer based in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney. He is the creator and editor of The Bible Matrix, a project exploring the literary and structural “DNA” of Scripture through chiastic and typological patterns that he believes reveal the unified design of God's Word. Bull's work blends biblical theology with symbolic interpretation, emphasizing covenantal structure and temple imagery across both Testaments. He has written several books, including Bible Matrix: An Introduction to the DNA of the Scriptures, and operates Bull's Bible School, which supports biblical education for pastors and leaders, particularly in Kenya.

Send us a textEver wonder how Abraham, Moses, Jacob, and David—deeply flawed and openly sinful—could be called friends of God and welcomed into His presence? We walk through the hard question with a clear answer: God never changed the rules of salvation; He changed the sacrifice. Using Hebrews 10 and Romans 3, we unpack why animal sacrifices were temporary shadows and how the cross became the public demonstration of God's righteousness, showing Him to be both just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.We explore the tabernacle's mercy seat, the meaning of substitutionary atonement, and the vivid picture of blood covering the law that everyone had broken. Then we connect the dots to Isaiah 53's prophecy of a righteous Servant who would be pierced for our transgressions and justify many. Old Testament believers trusted God's promise of a coming Redeemer; New Testament believers trust the Redeemer who has come. Different vantage points, same object of faith. That's why you can say the ancients were “saved on credit” and the debt was paid in full at Calvary.Along the way, we confront the lives of Scripture's imperfect heroes to show that grace doesn't minimize sin; it magnifies the Savior. No sin goes unpunished and no sinner who trusts Christ stands beyond forgiveness. If you've wrestled with guilt, shame, or confusion about how the Bible's two halves fit together, this conversation offers a single, sturdy bridge: one cross for all time.

Oktobra kultūras notikumus pārskatām kopā ar kultūras žurnālistiem: "Delfi" kultūras nodaļas redaktori Noru Riekstu-Ķenģi, "TVnet" kultūras redaktoru Tomu Treibergu, Latvijas TV raidījuma "Kultūrdeva" vadītāju Henrietu Verhoustinsku, kura ir arī aizvadītās sezonas "Spēlmaņu nakts" žurijas priekšsēdētāja, un laikraksta "Diena" redaktoru Ati Rozentālu, kurš ir jaunās sezonas "Spēlmaņu nakts" žūrijas priekšsēdētājs. Oktobra kultūrslānis ir bijis tik biezs, ka bija jāizvēlas, ka dot priekšroku, lai arī apmeklēt gribētos visus pasākumus, kas notika vienlaicīgi. Mūsu oktobri, protams, ierāmē Latvijas Radio simtgade 1. novembrī. Aizvadīts kino festivāls "Riga IFF", kuru atklāja ar brāļu Ābeļu filmu "Dieva suns". Tajā bija arī Kristas Burānes filmas "Visi putni skaisti dzied" pasaules pirmizrāde un Jāņa Ābeļa "Testaments". Festivālā bija ļoti daudz vērtīgu filmu. Un pilnas skatītāju zāles. Šonedēļ Kristīne Opolais dziedās titullomu operas "Madama Buterfly” iestudējumā. Tas gan būs jau 1. novembrī. Bet Katrīna Paula Felsberga un Edgars Ošlejs uzvarēja Straptautiskajā Jāzepa Vītola vokālistu konkursā. Teātros bijušas vērienīgas pirmizrādes – Raiņa ‘'Indulis un Ārija" Nacionālajā teātrī vēl septembra beigās un "Kritiens augšup" Jaunajā Rīgas teātrī. Arī vairāk saistoši iestudējumu nevalstiskajos teātris. Pasniegta gleznotājas Vijas Celmiņas stipendija jaunajai māksliniecei Ievai Putniņai. Mākslas centrā "Zuzeum" atklāta izstāde "Visa pasaule kā Bauhaus", papildinot Vācijas ekspozīciju ar divām pavadošām ekspozīcijām par Bauhaus sievietēm, kas cieši saistītas ar Rīgu. Līdz 15. novembrim pagarināta Maijas Tabakas izstāde "Ola Foundition". Bet aktuāls ir arī jautājums, kas saistās ne tikai ar mākslu, bet politiku. Jaunā Rīgas teātra mākslinieciskais vadītājs Alvis Hermanis ir paziņojis par iesaisītšanos jaunā politiskā kustībā "Bez partijām".
When you read about God in the Old Testament, it often feels like it a different God than the Old Testament. In this message, we're going to look at God's unchanging character throughout both the Old and New Testament scriptures. Speaker: Pastor Matt Scobell
When we left off, Jesus was enjoying a meal at Matthew's house. Matthew happens to be our author, and he was a tax collector. That led the Pharisees and religious leaders to sneer at Jesus and question his disciples about why their teacher would eat with tax collectors and sinners. The setting for our passage on Sunday is still at Matthew's house. Having been questioned by the Scribes and Pharisees, Jesus then faced questions from the disciples of his cousin, John the Baptizer. His response was three cryptic parables about a wedding, a patch of clothing, and wine in wineskins. What Jesus conveyed touches on what I find to be the most exciting and compelling kind of study we can do in the Bible. Jesus, who has already claimed to be the fulfilment of the Law and the Prophets, is speaking to the connection between the old covenant, old ways, and old methods of the religious leaders of his time and pointing to the new work God was doing right in front of them. We are going to look into that connection between the Old and New Covenants (or Testaments), how Jesus redefined the work of God and the people of God, and how we can make sense of what from the Old Testament continues forward through Christ versus what was completed and fulfilled in Christ, now becoming obsolete for those who follow him.------------------------------------------- Connect with us on Social Media Website | Instagram | Threads | Facebook | Vimeo------------------------------------------- Download our AppApple App Store | Google Play Store
The story of Jesus doesn't begin in Bethlehem - it begins in Genesis. Rabbi Jason Sobel joins us to explore how the whole Bible, from creation to new creation, points to one Messiah and one redemptive plan. His new book, Transformed by the Messiah, invites readers to rediscover the power of Scripture as one seamless narrative rather than two disconnected halves. In this episode, we trace how the Hebrew Scriptures set the stage for the Gospel: Joseph's betrayal and restoration, the feasts that frame the Kingdom, and the prophetic rhythms that pulse beneath every New Testament page. Jason shows how the Messiah fulfills - not replaces - Israel's story, inviting both Jew and Gentile into God's covenant promises. We also talk about how this restored vision transforms how we live - rooted in God's faithfulness, connected to His appointed times, and awakened to a Messiah who holds all of Scripture together. The goal isn't to add something new but to recover what's been there all along: the unity, beauty, and coherence of God's Word from beginning to end. Key Takeaways The Bible tells one continuous story of redemption, not two separate Testaments. Transformed by the Messiah helps readers see how every part of Scripture points to Yeshua. The Old Testament provides the framework; the New Testament reveals the fulfillment. Joseph's life foreshadows Messiah's rejection, suffering, and ultimate reconciliation. The biblical feasts - especially Sukkot - reveal the shape of God's Kingdom plan. Seeing Jesus through His Jewish context restores depth and meaning to our faith. Transformation in Messiah is holistic: spiritual, emotional, relational, and physical - reflecting God's shalom.

We don't know the problem we have: reading the Bible at the surface. English translations are trustworthy, but they flatten words that Hebrew infused with density, imagery, and connection. We end up missing layers of meaning that would transform how we live. In this conversation, we explore what happens when Hebrew cracks open the text. Familiar words you thought you understood suddenly leap off the page. Hope is sturdier, love is covenantal, fear is reframed, faith is embodied. The story of God's promises comes alive in a way that makes you want to keep digging. This isn't about becoming a scholar. It's about recognizing that the Bible is one unified story and learning how the Hebrew underneath points us more deeply to the God who keeps His promises and to the Messiah who fulfills them. Key Takeaways We often assume we know what biblical words mean, but translation thins their meaning. Hebrew restores density, imagery, and connection across the Testaments. Reading with Hebrew awareness turns abstract concepts into embodied realities. Surface-level reading can keep us from seeing God's covenant faithfulness. The Bible is one story, not two disconnected halves. Studying Hebrew words is a practical tool for deeper discipleship. This shift leads to sturdier hope, reoriented fear, covenantal love, and faithful living.

It's Thursday, October 2nd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Hindus barged into church assaulted pastor and destroyed Bibles Praise God! A court in India recently acquitted a Christian who faced charges under an “anti-conversion” law. The state of Uttarakhand passed the measure in 2018. Pastor Nandan Singh Bisht was the first Christian charged under the law. He faced years of legal battles. However, a judicial magistrate finally cleared the pastor of all charges on September 17th. The case began in 2021. Pastor Bisht gathered with 25 Christians in his house for prayer. In response, local Hindus barged into the house, destroyed their Bibles, and assaulted the pastor. Despite the ordeal, Pastor Bisht told Morning Star News that God was “always faithful and sustained my family's needs. This is the result of answered prayers.” In Matthew 5:11-12, Jesus said, “Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in Heaven.” Filipino earthquake kills 60 A 6.9-magnitude earthquake struck the Philippines on Tuesday. The powerful quake killed at least 60 people and injured over 150 more. Philippine Red Cross Chairman Richard Gordon told CNN, “Some churches partially collapsed, and some schools had to be evacuated. This [earthquake] was a sleeper. It crept up on us.” Wycliff Bible Translators released 23 complete Bibles & 95 New Testaments Wycliffe Bible Translators released their latest statistics on Tuesday. Over the past year, translators have released 23 complete Bibles and 95 New Testaments. This work brings the whole Bible to nearly 200 million more people. James Poole, the executive director of Wycliffe Bible Translators, stated, “In recent years, we have seen an extraordinary surge in Bible translation. Progress is happening at a pace and scale not witnessed before, and whole communities are beginning to receive the Scriptures far sooner than we could once have imagined.” Scottish police arrest pro-life grandmother for second time Police in Scotland recently re-arrested a 75-year-old pro-life grandmother for standing outside an abortion mill Rose Docherty simply held a sign that read, “Coercion is a crime, here to talk, only if you want.” It's the second time authorities arrested her under Scotland's buffer zone law. The U.S. State Department told The Telegraph, “The arrest of Rose Docherty is another egregious example of the tyrannical suppression of free speech happening across Europe.” U.S. Gov't shutdown @ midnight Wednesday The U.S. government entered a shutdown at midnight on Wednesday. Congressional leaders could not reach a deal to pass a spending bill by the deadline. Republicans are calling for spending cuts, while Democrats are pushing for more social programs and foreign aid. Listen to comments from Vice President J.D. Vance. VANCE: “To the American people who are watching, the reason your government is shut down at this very minute is because, despite the fact that the overwhelming majority of congressional Republicans and even a few moderate Democrats supported opening the government, the Chuck Schumer/AOC wing of the Democratic Party shut down the government because they said to us, ‘We will open the government, but only if you give billions of dollars of funding for healthcare for illegal aliens.” Previously, the federal government has had 20 funding gaps, resulting in 10 shutdowns since 1976. Contemporary Christian Music ranked 4th and religious stations ranked 2nd Inside Radio released the top 10 radio formats based on current month counts. Religion-formatted stations ranked second, and Contemporary Christian Music ranked fourth. Of the top 10, only Contemporary Christian has welcomed new stations into the format every month over the last year. Religion-formatted stations also saw consistent growth. Other music formats like Country and Top 40 lost a significant number of stations. Public & private school students bring their Bible to school today And finally, today is Focus on the Family's annual Bring Your Bible to School Day. Nearly 1.3 million people and over 10,000 churches participated last year. Emerson Collins is the Parenting and Youth Program Manager for Focus on the Family. He told The Christian Post, “We're looking at thousands of churches, thousands of schools and 2 million students total participating.” Collins said the celebration is not just about bringing Bibles to school but also talking about Christ. He noted, “That's what we're hoping to create is the curiosity, the connection and the conversation around Christ and the Gospel.” The celebration is inspired this year by James 1:22. The verse says, “Be doers of the Word, and not hearers only.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, October 2nd, in the year of our Lord 2025.

Send us a textWhat if the way God saves has never changed? We open with that claim and follow it through some of the Bible's most debated passages—resurrection vs. glorification, “spirits in prison” in 1 Peter 3, and the rich man and Lazarus—so we can trade speculation for a steadier hope. Our starting point is simple: if the Holy Spirit is essential to salvation, then His work is consistent across the Testaments. That means Old Testament saints were saved by grace through faith, with the new birth undergirding their trust in God, even if they lacked the post-resurrection clarity we enjoy. From there we trace how Scripture defines resurrection as bodily “standing again,” distinct from the final transformation into a glorified body. Matthew 27's raised saints? Real resurrections like Lazarus—mortal, not glorified—while Jesus remains the firstfruits who guarantees our future change.We also press into the Mount of Transfiguration and why Moses and Elijah could be recognized without collapsing categories about glorification. Then we slow down with 1 Peter 3:18–20. Rather than importing legends, we follow the text: Christ was made alive by the Spirit, by whom He preached to those who are now “spirits in prison”—namely, the disobedient in Noah's day who heard the Spirit's warning through Noah's preaching. This lens aligns with the Bible's pattern of patient, resisted calls and avoids turning the passage into a postmortem evangelistic tour. Finally, we untangle Sheol, Hades, hell, and paradise, using Luke 16 carefully to show a real, conscious intermediate state divided between comfort and torment, with final judgment and glorification still ahead.If you're hungry for clarity on salvation's unity, the meaning of firstfruits, and how to read contested texts without overreaching, this conversation will help you think biblically and hope confidently. Listen, take notes, and tell us where you land on 1 Peter 3 and the timeline of resurrection.

One of the difficult truths of life in the Middle Ages is that death was never far away. While the vast majority of medieval people owned far fewer possessions than we do today, they were just as concerned with making sure everything was taken care of according to their wishes before they passed. This week, Danièle speaks with Robert A. Wood about medieval wills, funerals, and some memorable bequests.You can support this podcast on Patreon - go to https://www.patreon.com/medievalists
What does the Old Testament priesthood reveal about Christ? In this episode of the Catholic podcast Power & Witness, Fr. Mark speaks with Fr. Anthony Giambrone, OP, about how the priesthood in Scripture points to Jesus Christ, our true High Priest. From Melchizedek in Genesis to the Letter to the Hebrews, they explore how the Old Testament priesthood is fulfilled and transformed in Christ, and what that means for the Catholic priesthood today.
In the pages of your Bible, you may find something mildly surprising. You find holidays, quite prominently, and in both Testaments. Not only that, but they are found observed by the Church in the New Testament. These festivals are called the appointed times of Jehovah and around them flow the entire history of the people of God—from the Israelites, to the Jews, to the Christians of every race and nation. And not only the history of God's people, but their future as well.I first began celebrating the festivals of the Bible nearly 50 years ago, but I can't say that I really understood them in the beginning. What I did was to follow the old rule: When all else fails, do as you're told. So, since God said to do it, and all I had to do was take off work and go to church, I thought, Let's do that. That was a simple first step. And because it was the custom to teach and study the meaning of the days in their seasons, year by year I learned the rich history of God's dealings with his people, especially at those pivotal points in their history, like the original Passover.To those of us who have been keeping the holy days for years—in some cases, for all of our lives—the practice seems so natural, so right. We all know what blessings we get from it, we all know how encouraging it is to us, we know what it means to us to spend that eight days together and how uplifted we can be when we go home from the Feast of Tabernacles. The scriptures supporting the practice seem so obvious. Why doesn't everyone see it? Why, we wonder, doesn't everyone observe the holy days?The most obvious reason, frankly, is that most Christians know little or nothing about the holy days. They just have never heard of them. One person will say Feast of Tabernacles, and another will say, What? They just frankly have no idea. For many of them, the Old Testament is about as uncharted as the Atlantic was for Christopher Columbus. They really don't know where anything is if they wanted to look for it.For those that are maybe a little more familiar with the Bible, the holy days have been dismissed as being Jewish and irrelevant to Christians. That's part of the Old Testament religion, and we have a New Testament religion; and they just make that simple demarcation and never really inquire any further along the line.A few people, on the other hand, have studied the subject and arrived at a conscious decision not to observe the holy days. Why? What is the rational, philosophic, theological, or scriptural basis for people to make that decision?I found to my surprise that studying the reasons that people advance as to why they do not keep the holy days has turned out to be a very useful study. A number of very interesting things have arisen from it—things that I guess I had taken for granted, had not really looked at as carefully as I might have done; and in the process of asking myself the question that I've asked you—Why is it everybody doesn't keep the holy days?—and beginning to look carefully at the reasons advanced by those who don't, I have found some things that have turned out to be rather interesting to me.Note: The article Ron mentions in the conclusion of this message later became an appendix in his book on the holy days, The Thread, titled In Defense of the Holydays. That appendix can be read here.

The Intertestamental Period. There may only be one page separating the OT and NT in your Bible, but what actually happened during that time frame and does it have much relevancy for the Christian?In today's episode, Pastor Jackie and Pastor Derek talk through a listener question regarding the "400 years of silence" between the Testaments. We find that there are tons of relevant things that happened between historical wars and fulfillment's of prophecy that shed light on context around the Gospels and why God sent John the Baptist to proclaim the Way when He did. This episode is jam packed with historical facts that are a must-listen for believers everywhere!The 17:17 podcast is a ministry of Roseville Baptist Church (MN) that seeks to tackle cultural issues and societal questions from a biblical worldview so that listeners discover what the Bible has to say about the key issues they face on a daily basis.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! A lo largo de estas páginas he intentado recuperar la respiración de una mujer silenciada, su costura de memorias rotas, su furia contenida en una oración susurrada. Este diario no pretende explicar nada. Solo dejar constancia de que hubo alguien mirando. Y resistiendo. Gracias a Olga Paraíso, por prestar su voz a las cicatrices. Por no actuar, sino encarnar. Por convertir este susurro en eco. Las palabras sobrevivieron porque alguien las pronunció en alto. L.J. Harlow Autora del manuscrito, aún en voz baja ♍ L.J. Harlow nació en el noroeste de Massachusetts, donde aprendió a escribir antes que a hablar en voz alta. Creció entre cuadernos, libros viejos y relatos susurrados por mujeres que no salían en los periódicos. Desde entonces, su escritura ha buscado preservar lo invisible. Solitaria por elección, rara vez concede entrevistas. Cree que una historia debe hablar por sí misma, y que demasiadas explicaciones debilitan lo que se ha escrito desde la herida. Se refugia en una casa antigua frente al mar, donde cultiva lilas, escucha estaciones de radio desaparecidas y cuida una gata sin nombre que entró un día sin pedir permiso. A lo largo de los años ha escrito bajo distintos seudónimos, colaborando como guionista y narradora en proyectos de ficción sonora, literatura clandestina y archivos documentales. Uno de sus trabajos más destacados es el documental “Las que regresan” (1985), una pieza íntima y cruda que reúne testimonios de mujeres que sobrevivieron a estructuras de control y silenciamiento. El documental fue prohibido en varios países por su carga política y su enfoque crítico sobre las narrativas oficiales. Para quienes han sido obligadas a callar. Para quienes no dejaron de mirar. Escribí esto en voz baja, pero con el corazón en la mano. L.J. Harlow BIBLIOGRAFÍA Este diario se inspira y se entrelaza con el universo narrativo de The Handmaid’s Tale de Margaret Atwood, tanto en su novela original (El cuento de la criada, 1985) como en sus adaptaciones televisivas.

Atwood, Margaret. The Testaments. McClelland & Stewart, 2019. Hulu / MGM Television. The Handmaid’s Tale (TV Series), creada por Bruce Miller, temporadas 1-5 (2017–2023). Documentación histórica sobre regímenes autoritarios, teorías del control social y estudios sobre la pérdida de derechos civiles en sociedades modernas. Ensayos académicos sobre género, poder y memoria colectiva en contextos distópicos contemporáneos.

Bradley Whitford Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson It was a sweet reunion when 3 x Emmy-winner Bradley Whitford of The West Wing was surprised and serenaded by composer Snuffy Walden, with the show's Emmy-winning theme. They share quite a bit of history, having also done Sorkin's Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. Last night Snuff and I binged the pilot episodes of both shows and were astounded by how timely they still are. Bradley and I discussed his storyline in that first West Wing, which could've been ripped out of today's headlines. We also talked about Studio 60 and the irony of Danny Trip's confession to Matt Albie, played by Matthew Perry, about his drug slip. Bradley's emotional remembrance of the show, its cast, and specifically Matthew's comedic brilliance, and the pocket of sobriety for Matt that allowed for some of his best work. Bradley ain't no Hollywood fluffernutter. Of progressive Quaker stock, his father, who worked at an insurance company, was the local president of Planned Parenthood before it was political, his mother was an outspoken advocate, and his brother, a conscientious objector. Talk about an unusual childhood, he has an 85-year-old sister. Bradley came from a loving, functional home, and still became an actor. Now that's an anomaly right there. We did a deep dive into the state of the union. Thoughtful, passionate, and in solution, Bradley puts his activism where his mouth is. We talked Trump, Musk, Kennedy, gender affirming care, Biden, Kamala, Hillary, Iran, immigration, how art will not save us, only politics will. And yet much of Bradley's art is political. We spoke about The Handmaid's Tale from innumerable angles. For me, arguably perhaps the greatest show ever on television, and his Commander Lawrence, is probably the most layered, complex character he's portrayed. We talked about Elisabeth and their earlier connection in The West Wing, Anne Dowd, and how her spectacular performance inspired Margaret Atwood's writing, The Testaments, for her. Bradley was far more interested in talking about current affairs and how essential it is that we do more than talk than he was in talking about his work. But we did squeeze in some time to discuss For Worse, the indie feature his bride, Amy Landecker, wrote, directed, and stars in alongside Bradley. His respect, love, and admiration to Amy are adorable to behold. Making the festival circuit and winning awards along the way, I can't wait to see the film loosely based on their romance. I'm a fan. A great, big avid Bradley Whitford fan. The last time we met, it was at a big Hollywood soiree. He was equally as open, personable, unaffected, opinionated, and accessible as he was this day. As much as I adore his work, I'm grateful as hell for his humanity and advocacy. I hope to consider “What would Bradley do” a whole lot more moving forward. And speaking of hope, he has it in abundance… mix that with some fun, his learned recipe's secret sauce, and there's good reason to trust that there are better days ahead. It's up to us, all of us, to make it so. This should be essential viewing for anyone in fear and despair.

While not as critical as some online commenters, they felt that the finale spent a bit too much time on indulgent flashbacks and montages, time which could have been better used to deepen certain pivotal moments.

The hosts dive into key New Testament passages, connecting them to Heiser's thesis about spiritual warfare, the role of demons, and the significance of Jesus' actions in the Gospels.Key Topics Discussed:The Divine Council and Deuteronomy 32 WorldviewRecap of Heiser's concept of the Divine Council: spiritual beings in God's presence, referenced in Psalms and Deuteronomy, who witness and participate in God's dominion.Heiser's “Deuteronomy 32 worldview” ties to Genesis 11 (Tower of Babel) and the Table of Nations in Genesis 10, where 70 nations are assigned to spiritual beings, while Israel remains under Yahweh's direct authority.Discussion of how this worldview shapes the understanding of spiritual dynamics in both Testaments.Jesus and the Twelve DisciplesThe hosts explore the symbolic significance of Jesus choosing 12 disciples, representing the 12 tribes of Israel (Mark 6:7-13).Jesus sends the 12 out with authority over impure spirits, a mission tied to preaching repentance and healing.Casting out demons is noted as unique to Jesus' ministry, absent in early Judaism and the Old Testament, suggesting a spiritual confrontation stirred by the announcement of God's kingdom.The Sending of the 70 (or 72)In Luke 10:1, Jesus sends out 70 (or 72, depending on the manuscript) disciples, which Heiser connects to the 70 nations in Genesis 10.This act symbolizes Jesus' authority over all nations, not just Israel, as a spiritual offensive against the powers assigned to those nations.The disciples return, reporting that “even the demons submit to your name” (Luke 10:17), prompting Jesus' declaration: “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven” (Luke 10:18).Jesus emphasizes rejoicing in salvation (“your names are written in heaven”) over power over spirits.Hades and Spiritual WarfareDiscussion of Hades as both the underworld and a Greek god, referenced in Revelation 6:8 (the pale horse and rider named Death, followed by Hades).Connection to Matthew 16:13-20, where Jesus, at Caesarea Philippi (near Mount Bashan, a place of pagan worship), declares, “On this rock, I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.”Heiser interprets this as an offensive move: the church will break down the defensive “gates” of false gods, not merely resist them.The Transfiguration (Matthew 17) is also linked to this location, reinforcing Jesus' authority over spiritual realms.Paul's Perspective on Spiritual RealitiesIn 1 Corinthians 2:6-10, Paul speaks of “the rulers of this age” who did not understand God's mystery, leading to Jesus' crucifixion. Heiser suggests these rulers are spiritual beings, not just human authorities, defeated through Jesus' death and resurrection.Ephesians 6:10-12 (the armor of God) emphasizes the battle against “spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms,” aligning with Heiser's view of ongoing spiritual warfare.1 Corinthians 10:18-21 connects idol worship to “demons” (Greek: daimonion), which could also mean “gods” in the Septuagint (Deuteronomy 32:17). Paul warns against participating in sacrifices to these entities.1 Peter and the Imprisoned Spirits1 Peter 3:18-22 discusses Jesus' proclamation to “imprisoned spirits” after his resurrection, which Heiser ties to Genesis 6 and...
