Ancient Roots of Life Episode 21 In this episode, JT & @templemaintenancejosh discuss the complex relationship between Israel and current global events, exploring public perceptions, prophetic implications, and the historical context of movements like Frankism. They discuss the influence of social media and secret societies on modern narratives, legislative support for Israel, and theological reflections on prophecy and judgment. This conversation delves into various themes including geocentrism, the significance of humanity in creation, the implications of Israel's existence, and the exploration of spiritual realms and alien theories. The speakers discuss historical prophecies, the role of judgment and redemption, and the importance of open-mindedness in theological discussions. They also touch on modern health insights and the chronological study of biblical texts, particularly focusing on the Maccabees and the cyclical nature of disobedience seen in the book of Judges.Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Modern Roots Life 00:46 Questioning Israel's Role in Current Events 03:50 Public Perception of Israel and Prophetic Implications 09:36 Exploring Frankism and Its Historical Context 15:24 The Influence of Secret Societies and Propaganda 23:29 The Role of Social Media in Modern Warfare 28:07 Legislative Support for Israel and Its Implications 37:36 Theological Reflections on Prophecy and Judgment 47:11 Exploring Geocentrism and Alien Theories 49:22 Historical Context of Prophecies and Plans 52:00 The Importance of Humanity in Creation 54:18 Speculations on Spiritual Realms and Alien Invasions 57:31 The Role of Israel in Prophetic Fulfillment 59:11 The Nature of Judgment and Redemption 01:00:57 Open-Mindedness in Theological Discussions 01:03:58 Modern Roots and Health Insights 01:05:27 Chronological Studies of Biblical Texts 01:08:51 The Maccabees and Historical Context 01:13:17 Judges and the Cycle of Disobedience 01:35:28 Understanding the Role of ProphetsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jt-s-mix-tape--6579902/support.Please support our sponsor Modern Roots Life: https://modernrootslife.com/?bg_ref=rVWsBoOfcFJESUS SAID THERE WOULD BE HATERS Shirts: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/mens-shirts/WOMEN'S SHIRTS: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/womens-shirts/

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

By doing so, we'll see what's most important in our lives and how to relate to people with differing beliefs. Denominational splits and church splits have taken place since the early church and it's important for us to measure our beliefs to see what unites us rather than fight over what separates us on secondary issues.

X2M.159 – Quaquaversal | Starfield Astrocyte Quaquaversal (Latin quaqua “whichever way” + versus “turned”) signifies spreading in all directions, unlike a line locked into one axis.¹ In geology it describes strata dipping outward from a central point; in PH12 it names consciousness opening in every direction at once. • Philosophical resonance: Paradise Lost narrowed perception into single channels of shame and toil. Quaquaversal reopens perception as manifold, unconfined by decay. • Cosmic image: The Starchild's mind is refracted like starlight, not bound to one trajectory but diffusing across dimensions. • Theological anchor: Ezekiel's vision of the wheels “full of eyes all around” (Ezek. 1:18) parallels the quaquaversal spread — perception that sees every direction at once.² • Neurobiological analogy: Just as neurogenesis remaps hippocampal circuits (see X2M.164), so quaquaversal spreading allows new outputs from old inputs, perception re-coded for multidirectionality.³ In PH12's runtime, Quaquaversal inaugurates the Starfield Astrocyte: consciousness no longer a tunnel but a radiating starfield. It is the first spark of transfiguration — spreading outward, carrying glory into every vector. ⸻ Footnotes ¹ Oxford English Dictionary, “Quaquaversal,” s.v. ² Ezekiel 1:18. ³ Sailor et al., “Synaptic Remodeling in Dentate Granule Cells,” Neuron (2017). ⸻ Glorification | The Final Frontier Going Boldly Where The Last Man has Gone Before!

The second installment in a two-part exploration of Simon(e) Weil for the ongoing Antifascist Christianity series and the Antifascist Woodshed project. At the heart of the episode is Weil's terse, luminous definition of love—“belief in the existence of other human beings as such”—and Richard Gilman-Opalsky's unpacking of how that love rejects projections and demands the generosity of attention, shared joys and miseries, and a deprivatized ethic of care. Matthew contrasts this with caricatures of Weil as an ascetic or body-denier, arguing instead for a portrait of a neurodivergent activist whose stressed nervous system made hypocrisy intolerable and whose spirituality emerged from embodied encounters. Weil presented a lot of scrambling data—gender nonconformity, ambivalent sexuality, eating and touch aversions, migraines and hypergraphia. Theological and philosophical commentators often pathologize or misread Weil, while sidestepping their autism. As for Weil's Christianity: it wasn't about churchly allegiance but an experiential, anti-hypocrisy faith that found Jesus in direct action and in taking liturgical symbols seriously enough to live them. For Weil, “this is my body” became a present-tense statement of antifascist solidarity: the breaking and sharing of bread and body as an F-you to the imperials, and a call to communal repair.

Just days after Charlie Kirk's assassination, I sit with Texas Marriage and Family Therapist Jonathan Cogburn for what becomes a profound exploration of faith, courage, and finding hope in dark times. Jonathan shares his journey from being apolitical to openly identifying as conservative, inspired by brave voices who showed him there's nothing shameful about his beliefs.We dive into systems theory concepts like pursuer-distancer patterns that explain both family dynamics and our current cultural moment, discussing how healthy conflict is necessary to prevent accumulated resentment. Jonathan reveals his patient approach to online discourse, treating people as capable of the change he hopes to see, while I grapple with questions of when charity becomes naive.Our conversation weaves through theological perspectives on human worth, the intersection of therapy and faith, and how Christianity offers a practical framework for living with our flawed nature. We tackle the thorny question of whether consequences for those glorifying violence constitute "cancel culture" or a necessary reset of social norms. This episode captures the wrestling many of us are doing right now - how to maintain hope, express truth, and build bridges while protecting ourselves and those we love.Jonathan Cogburn is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in West Texas who currently works for an agency that provides a variety of support to school districts in his area In that role he delivers state-required mental health training to districts, supports rural school counselors and homeless student liaisons, and co-leads a team of licensed professionals and school counselors that respond to crises and disasters.

Theological error, idolatry, and sin are serious matters that cannot be ignored because they are a constant threat to the unity of God's people. In this passage, we see the necessity of pursuing the peace and purity of the church.Sermon Outline:I. Because the LORD is God, We Must Cling to Him in Wholehearted DevotionII. Because the LORD is God, We Must Pursue the Purity of the ChurchIII. Because the LORD is God, We Must Pursue the Peace of the ChurchSermon Discussion Questions:1. The word “cling” used in Joshua's instructions is the same word used to describe how a husband and wife should hold fast to each other in marriage. What does it look like practically to “cling to God with loyalty, faithfulness, and affection” in the midst of busy daily life? What threatens to pull your affection away from Him?2. The altar built by the eastern tribes was misunderstood as rebellion. Can you recall a time when you misjudged someone's motives (or were misjudged yourself)? What would it look like for you to be slower to assume and quicker to ask questions in those situations?3. The western tribes feared the altar represented idolatry because sin spreads and affects the whole community. In what ways have you seen sin (whether your own or others') impact your family, church, or community? What does “guarding the purity of the church” look like in practice?4. When the misunderstanding was cleared, Israel rejoiced that “the LORD is in our midst” (v. 31). How does pursuing peace with one another help us experience and display God's presence today?5. How does this central confession that “The LORD is God” give us unity as believers even when we disagree about lesser matters? How could remembering this confession change the way you approach conflict?

While Jonah's story is familiar, Dr. Meyer highlights its deeper purpose: exposing Jonah's hard heart and pointing to God's compassion for repentant sinners—even Israel's enemies. The discussion covers Jonah's historical context, the unique narrative style among the Minor Prophets, the book's main theological theme, and its relevance for believers today.Learn about DBTS at https://dbts.eduRegister for E3 at https://e3pc.org

The boys drink and review "I Just Crush A Lot" a blueberry hibiscus tart ale from Calvert Brewing. In 1054, a dramatic split forever changed the face of Christianity. Known as the Great Schism, it divided the Church into Roman Catholicism in the West and Eastern Orthodoxy in the East. But the break didn't happen overnight—it was centuries in the making.In this video, we'll explore:* The immediate crisis: papal legates and Patriarch Michael Cerularius trading excommunications.* Political and cultural tensions: Rome vs. Constantinople, Latin vs. Greek, and the rise of Islam.* Authority disputes: papal supremacy in the West vs. conciliar authority in the East.* Theological differences: the Filioque controversy, Monophysitism, and contrasting spiritual emphases.* Divergent practices: from unleavened vs. leavened bread, to clerical celibacy and fasting rules.* The aftermath: how the Crusades, especially the sack of Constantinople, deepened the divide.The Schism was not just about doctrine—it was about culture, politics, and identity. Understanding it helps explain why the Christian world looks the way it does today.#GreatSchism #1054 #ChristianHistory #Catholic #Orthodox #ChurchHistory #Byzantine #Rome

We begin this episode by looking outside of Psalms to the New Testament. Paul writes from prison in Colossians 3:16, encouraging new believers to grow in spiritual maturity and let the word of Christ dwell in them richly. It's in this plea, as well as multiple other passages across scripture, that we see a collective urgency to treasure the scriptures in our hearts. Studies show that Christians in North America have more access to the Bible than ever before and yet we know less about God's Word than we ever have. In this brief episode, we'll look at why it's so crucial to get God's Word into us. We'll also examine the science of our brains and offer practical steps forward. We hope you leave this episode both encouraged and challenged! Bible verses:-Deuteronomy 11:18-Psalm 119:11-Proverbs 3:1-Luke 6:45-Isaiah 26:3-Psalm 139:14

Hunter Witcraft explores the idea of theological method. What is it? How do we develop one? And, how can we do the work to put a good theological method into practice?--Scriptures Explored: Exodus 34:6-7; Nahum 1:2-3; Jonah 4:2; Joel 2:13; John 1:29; Mark 1:7; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4--Hunter Witcraft is married to Willa; we have two boys: Graham (3) and Benjamin (1). I have a M.Div. from Corban University, a MA in Christian Ministry from GCU, and a Post-Graduate Certificate in Biblical Languages from GCU. The Bible is God's Word to us, and for that reason, it is important for us to understand it (yes, we even have to work on the hard parts and the tricky parts). The Bible itself is a gift of grace from God to us – He was under no obligation to give it to us, and yet in it He has given us everything needed for life and godliness (2 Pet. 1:3). The Holy Spirit is active when we preach the Scripture and when we hear the Scripture, glorifying God and drawing us to Him; for that reason, I do what I can to accurately deliver the Word of God.--Connect with Us:contact@parableministries.comParable MinistriesInstagram--If you feel led to give to Parable Ministries, please visit: DonateMusic created by Chad HoffmanArtwork created by Anthony Kuenzi

The Origin of Sin (Romans 5:12-14)

Michael Easley Sermons

Summary In this sermon, Dr. Michael Easley teaches from Romans 5, unpacking the sobering truth that through Adam's sin, death entered the world and spread to all humanity. Drawing from the historical use of primers and catechisms in early American education, Dr. Easley illustrates how generations once clearly taught the doctrine of original sin. Today, however, our culture resists the very concept of sin, preferring to redefine or dismiss it altogether. Yet Scripture is clear: sin is not simply a collection of bad choices but a condition that rules, spreads, and ultimately kills. Dr. Easley explains the imputation of sin and contrasts differing theological views, emphasizing that in Adam, all humanity fell, but in Christ, believers are given life. Sin's pervasiveness demonstrates our desperate need for redemption. The either/or reality Paul presents is simple but profound: we are either in Adam, under the curse of sin and death, or in Christ, where His one act of righteousness secures eternal life. The good news is that through faith in Christ alone, we are no longer condemned but made right with God. Only in Christ can the guilt of sin be removed and the gift of eternal life received. Takeaways Through Adam's sin, death entered the world and spread to all humanity. Our culture resists the concept of sin, but Scripture affirms its power and pervasiveness. Sin is not just an action—it is a condition that controls, spreads, and kills. Theological views may differ, but Romans 5 is clear: in Adam, all sinned. In Christ, believers receive the imputation of righteousness and the gift of eternal life. The gospel's hope is simple: we are either in Adam under death, or in Christ under grace.

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

Observe, Engage, Adapt, Persevere - Life's Recipe with Matt Garretson

From BMX tracks to the Iditarod trail, and from Yale Law to global justice reform, Matt Garretson's life is a masterclass in resilience, curiosity, and purpose-driven innovation. In this episode, Jeff Bloomfield sits down with Matt to explore how his unique blend of risk-taking, compassion, and intellectual rigor led him to reshape the legal services sector, build businesses that impact thousands, and embark on extreme adventures that test the limits of human endurance. Whether it's resolving billion-dollar settlements, pioneering AI in the legal industry, or pedaling 1,000 miles across frozen Alaska, Matt's story is proof that the best results come from observing, engaging, adapting, and persevering. His daily formula: “My guiding mantra each day was that I must be methodical about observing (all data re terrain, weather, gear, etc.), engaging (with the underlying assumptions derived from those observations), adapting (because everything changes constantly when executing in an unpredictable/uncontrolled environment), persevering (having faith/confidence that i have the body, mind and spirit to accomplish the daily goals if i stay methodical about this loop). I broke each day into hour segments meaning for instance i didnt plan for 60 miles or 15 hours each day….i just needed to make it for instance from 9 AM to 10AM…then i can make it to 11 and if I made it to 11 then certainly 12 was possible etc. 18 days later I was in Nome!!!” This isn't just a story about legal innovation or adventure sports — it's a blueprint for high-stakes decision-making in life and business. Matt's “Observe, Engage, Adapt, Persevere” framework, forged in the crucible of both courtroom battles and Arctic winds, is a practical leadership model for anyone navigating uncertainty. Leaders, entrepreneurs, and high-performers will walk away with actionable insights on risk management, building trust in complex negotiations, integrating AI into human-centered processes, and maintaining clarity when the stakes are high and the variables keep changing. Origin shapes destiny — The combination of his father's risk-taking spirit and his mother's intellectual curiosity formed the foundation of Matt's worldview. Unconventional paths have power — Yale undergrad + night law school created a rare blend of elite theory and gritty pragmatism. Faith in action — Matt's theology degree grew out of reconciling the good and harm he saw in organized religion. Neutrality is a business model — Creating fair, transparent systems for complex legal settlements can transform entire industries. AI accelerates trust — Tools like Pattern Data and Jane are reshaping how the legal profession processes and shares information. Adventure as a leadership lab — Extreme endurance events sharpen decision-making and adaptability. Observe, Engage, Adapt, Persevere — A simple yet powerful framework for survival and success. Moisture management matters — Small, counterintuitive habits can make or break long-term success in any high-stakes environment. Find the middle ground — In negotiations, you've likely reached fairness when both sides are slightly unhappy but see the logic. Impact over income — Matt's latest venture in Guatemala proves that business growth and social good can be inseparable. 00:00 – Intro & guest setup 05:35 – Matt's origin story: risk-taking father, intellectual mother 09:00 – Discovering law as a second-phase career 11:55 – Theological studies: reconciling faith and harm 17:28 – The birth of a neutral legal administrator 21:11 – World Trade Center, BP Oil Spill, and mass tort work 27:39 – Truth, accountability, and finding reliable sources 31:44 – AI's role in transforming the legal industry 39:23 – Epic adventures: Great Divide, Baja Divide, Iditarod 45:58 – The Observe–Engage–Adapt–Persevere model 53:48 – Burnbright: blending business, social impact, and job creation
