About James Ishmael Ford, Zen Buddhist Priest & Ordained Minister:James has walked the​ spiritual path for more than fifty years. He's danced with Sufis, studied with Christian mystics, lived in Buddhist monasteries, and eventually was ordained a Zen priest. Later, he was also ordained as a Unitarian Universalist minister. James' path has taken him to a life "between" several traditions, bringing him into a nondual spirituality. Trying to unpack what that actually means in his life, and with a tip of the hat to Erasmus, James claims a physiology of faith; a Buddhist brain, a Christian heart, and a rationalist stomach. You can learn more about James on his website and keep up with his most recent project, the Unanswered Question Newsletter, HERE. “For me, the goal is to find 'what is'. I originally framed it as 'Is there a God?' I realized I had the question wrong, and at some point it was 'what is God?'. Today, I would say, 'what is this?'” – James Ishmael FordSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What good are values? How do they help us in the everyday chaos of life?That is what we are talking about on the show today. We will discuss how values are essential for us as we navigate life. Just like a compass helps sailors arrive at their destination, values guide us to live empowered lives. This means each day can be rich and full of meaning no matter what you do for a job or how many tasks you have to accomplish.Values Help Us Live Focused in the Chaos of LifeValues can act as a compass and bring focus amidst the chaos.Values give us direction on what action to take.Values help us cut out the unnecessary or unimportant in our lives.Values are an Antidote to AimlessnessWithout values, we aren't aiming our lives in any specific directionValues force us to choose.If we don't choose a direction for our lives, someone or something else will choose for us.The current of life draws us towards the easy and the urgent. The easy and the urgent are rarely the important.Not choosing is a choice.Values are an Antidote to OverwhelmA million different voices are screaming at us that we NEED to do their thing. (Buy their product, take their course, follow their advice, etc.)There is a dangerous assumption in our world that we can do everything.You CANNOT do it all. “Teach us to number our days, that we might gain a heart of wisdom.”(Psalm 90:12)We don't need to do everything. We just need to do the right thingsThe difference between a light and a laser is the focus.The difference between surviving and thriving is the focus.CHALLENGE:The Values Starter KitRESOURCES TO HELP YOU THRIVE AS A MAN========================Thriving Man Coaching ResourcesDiscover OUR SPEAKING AND HOW WE HAVE EMPOWERED THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ACROSS THE WORLD

The debate over the reality of climate change is over. There is no place on land or sea that is immune from the effects of extreme weather, fire, flood, inundation, erosion, and social impacts. This week we're discussing carbon as the key culprit to our current condition, and the multitudinous methods and suggestions and investments to remove carbon from the atmosphere and the ocean. Is it possible we've made this all too complicated? Might the solutions be right there, in front of us, having already been discovered at the technological, political, and regulatory levels? What does it look like if we apply simplicity, imagination, collaboration, and energy to guide our way forward, toward solutions?World Ocean RadioSince 2010More than 730 episodesOcean is climate | Climate is ocean | The sea connects all thingsThe full catalog is searchable by themeWorld Ocean Radio: 5-minute weekly insights in ocean science, advocacy, education, global ocean issues, challenges, marine science, policy, and solutions.

SummaryThe age of short termism now dominates - Todays guest however takes long termism the way we all take breakfast (those not on a fasting regime anyway) Apparently he was born this way. In his recently released book Taming the Apocalypse he states that the only remaining sustainable resources after industrialisation runs its course will be biology & culture. To prepare for this time, Shane Simonsen has an exceptionally original approach to zero input, large scale farming & has committed his life's plan of living long enough to connect varieties of crops that have been separated by 60 million years of evolution by creating plant hybridisation at scale - his seed collection rivals Svalbard the Global Seed Vault.His thesis so far: -The shortcoming of science is that it wants all organisms to behave like machines. -If we have 1000 farmers over 1000 years doing this, we would see a miracle  - not a machine.- Now is the moment for sacrificial offerings of research & time for the sake of learning for future generations- Putting seeds in the dirt NOT a seed bank is the best path to build genetic diversityLinks You'll LoveShane Simonsen substackLoved this?

EMS varies significantly from state to state so you get a wide range in the abilities of EMT's and paramedics nation wideCase reviews are moving to an educational rather than a punitive model There is no true national standard for EMT's and paramedic's which further complicates thingsThe regions that EMS is practiced in vary a ton as well. Skills may need to be performed much more frequently in an urban area vs a very rural areaSenior, experienced providers should use opportunities to show the newbies how to do skills rather than perform them themselvesOne of the hardest parts of being a paramedic is standing back and delegating instead of doing the actual skillsEMS still falls under the department of transportation which is the department it was founded underStandardization nationwide for EMS practice is difficult for multiple reasons, a big one is EMS needs and patients can vary a lot from region to region.

In ancient Sanskrit, mandala means “circle.” Gradually working outward from the central first dot, the creator builds an intricate and beautiful design. And then, the whole thing is wiped clean.

Join Kim Grant as she speaks with contemplative photographer Paul Sanders. Paul began his photography career as a news photographer. He shares how, despite achieving everything he'd dreamt of in his career, he was left feeling unfulfilled and battling mental and physical health issues. Since then he has been on a journey of self discovery, resulting in him adopting a more mindful and contemplative approach to his photography.

215 – Does your heart overflow with gratitude?I've been thinking of everything I'm grateful for. With all the tensions in the world, not to mention the challenges in my own life, I've found that expressing gratitude helps get me refocused on God and brings some peace of mind. Gratitude helps clear the air so my heart can breathe more freely.This week's episode takes a deep dive into some of the many ways people in the Bible express gratitude or encourage others to be grateful.Old Testament:The "thank offering" or "sacrifice of thanksgiving" was one of the first ways the Children of Israel expressed their thanks to GodWhen David brought the Arc of the Covenant back to Jerusalem, he appointed people to collectively praise and thank GodWhen Solomon brought the Arc of the Covenant into the Temple for the first time, he also appointed a group of people to thank God collectivelyJehoshaphat sent people out to sing thanks to God to meet the warring armiesEzra appointed people to collectively thank God when they laid the foundation on which the Temple would be rebuiltNehemiah appointed two whole choirs to thank God in song on the newly built walls of JerusalemPsalms is full of gratitude to GodDon't forget Daniel and Jonah, who thanked God in tough situationsNew TestamentAnna thanked God for letting her see the MessiahJesus gave thanks before he fed the 5,000 and 4,000 peopleJesus gave thanks at the Last Supper, even though he knew he would be betrayed and crucifiedPaul thanked God for so many thingsThe people he was writing toThe fact that he got to serve ChristThat Christ delivered people from their sinsHe encourages us to be grateful for everything in the name of Christ JesusAnd sometimes we just need to thank God for being God.What are some ways you can be more grateful?Mentioned in this episode:Episode 213: How to Be Grateful in Every Situation Episode 111: What Was Jesus Thankful for?Show notes:Read the full transcript and all the Bible quotes: thebiblespeakstoyou.com/215Support the show_________________________James Early, the Jesus Mindset Coach, is a Bible teacher, speaker, and podcaster.

As a trauma survivor, I had no idea how much my experiences were impacting my ability to have self-esteem. One of the messages that trauma can send us is that there is something wrong with us. This message can significantly impact our ability to have and build self-esteem. In this episode, we take a look at the following:Understanding what self-esteem is and is notHow trauma impacts our ability to have self-esteemHow self-compassion can help us in building self-esteemLearning to build self-respectHow having and keeping boundaries leads to greater self-respectWhy keeping our promises to ourselves is so importantSpeak to yourself with respectPushing ourselves to try new thingsThe gift of serving others in building self-respectI hope this episode can help you see that your struggle with self-esteem isn't because there is something wrong with you but because it is a natural result of the trauma you experienced. You can build the self-esteem and self-respect you desire. You are worthy of your own love,JerryMy New Book:Returning: Meditations and Reflections on Self-Love and HealingTransformational Coaching:Learn More Here!Support the Show:My Patreon PageHow is your relationship with yourself going?Get your free-self assessment guideWatch On YoutubeWebsite:www.jerryhenderson.orgSupport the Show:My Patreon PageTrouble Sleeping?Sleep ResetGet Your Free Weekly Healing Tips!Free Guided Self-Love Meditation:Get it Here!Website:www.jerryhenderson.orgInstagram: ...

 I Love My Adopting Church Passage   October 15, 2023     Introduction:In 2017 an “epidemic of loneliness and isolation” was declared the US surgeon general.  And the health implications of loneliness have become clearer over time.The link between loneliness and physical & mental health is well established, as it can lead to dementia, heart disease, stroke and even premature death along with changes in our brain that impact the way we relate with people!  In 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic amplified the problem with increased social isolation and decreased social support.The average American's daily time spent with people dropped by one hour and screen time increased by one hour. That means the average American traded over 300 hours of in-person time for over 300 hours of social media, TV, and internet reading. Let me add a few more things that contribute to this epidemic of loneliness and isolation Think of the community life of those who lived in the city as they spent time on their front porch relating to neighbors, to the isolation of a move to the suburbs where people spend their time on the back porch and with fences to keep everyone out. Add to that a divided culture where people do not accept friends and community unless they are in total agreement with their social, political, and theological views.   We can add to that our parenting, family commitments and work demands,  All of this isolation, dividedness, and busyness is separating us from the relationships we need the most, relationships in the body of Christ.Brothers and sisters in Christ to do life with, speak truth to one another - both the truth that comforts and convicts, and helps us regain our bearing in the midst of an isolated, divided, busy world. Don opened up this whole series   I love my church by showing us that at the core MVC is not an institution or an organization but it is a family made up of brothers and sisters in Christ, children of god, mothers and fathers in the faith.   A family of close-knit relationships of people who genuinely care for one another.     Today we are going to talk about loving my adopting church.As an adopting church, we realize that being adopted by God into his family and our union with Christ brings with it a profound supernatural union with one another.   That in the body of Christ we are hardwired to connect deeply with one another just as my arm is with my wrist, my wrist is with my hand and my hand is with my fingers in regards to my human body But here is the challenge, everything in our culture fights against this kind of connection and impacts the quality of our relationships.  This morning I want to address two biblical instructions that can help us excel still the more as an adopting church.  First is to be a …  Welcoming church To be a welcoming church it will require two separate but closely related biblical instructions: greeting and hospitality. Let's start with greeting - six times in the New Testament we are commanded to greet one another.   Five of those six times it says we are to accompany that greeting with a holy kiss  I am going to deal with the greeting aspect this morning, I will let Don deal with the holy kiss part.    Simply this a warm genuine greeting that would make someone feel that you are genuinely glad to see them and glad they are here.  1 Thessalonians 5:26 says essentially the same thing but adds an extra thought to the six commands  read - “all'' Not just friend to friend, same age to same age, or same gender to same gender, same color to same color, not just those in your small group or the ministry you serve in together but “all” and not just new people but also everyone Often we leave the greeting up to those who have that ministry at the front door, but in a church family every person we cross paths with God calls me to warmly and genuinely welcome them. The second aspect of a welcoming church we find in Hebrews 13:1-2.  Read Hebrews 13:1-2   HospitalityV1 let love continue.  Keep on loving one another But in v2, he makes a transition from brothers to strangers, and from something that we are doing to something we should not forget to do.     A stranger is simply someone who we do not know personally.  The word hospitality in the Greek literally means “a lover of strangers.” Hospitality goes way beyond just greeting those you do not know, and it is much more different than entertaining our friends, but hospitality also providing for any of their unique needs.   For many in a church one of their first needs in a group like this is to be greeted, feel like they are really wanted here, feel loved, accepted, like they belong and like people actually care about their needs!  A welcoming church just like when a family adopts a child, they not only warmly greet them when they first come into the home, they not only learn each other's names and make them feel at home, but they go as far as to take responsibility for their wellbeing. That leads us into the second important biblical instruction for being an adopting church.  To be a   Welfare churchI am not talking about a social program but like an adoptive family, like our God who adopted us, as an adopting church we should take on the welfare of each other personally and spiritually.   We are our brothers' keepers and we are responsible for one another's spiritual welfare Turn to 1 Thessalonians 2.  Here we see the kind tender care and concern that Paul and his associates had for the welfare of church in Thessalonica both personally and spiritually As I read this note two thingsThe family language and attitudes that are used The purpose for all this kind of care    Read 2:7-12  The reason for this motherly and fatherly kind of care is so that they would walk in a manner worthy of the God who calls them into his own kingdom and glory! We are our brothers' and sisters' keepers and we are to care for them personally. as the New Testament “one another” passages, that is passages that speak to us about the mutual responsibilities we have with each other, we see things like: encourage, devoted to, build up, admonish, serve, have same care for, comfort, stimulate to love and good deeds, confess your sins to, pray for.   All things that relate to our responsibility to watch out for the spiritual welfare of each other. A number of months ago I went to a discipleship conference with Don and Mike Locke.  They put up a chart that really connected with me as I told Don this is one of the biggest areas MVC needs to grow in.Put up chart   For many of us our thoughts about growing is that we always keep moving to the right on this chart and we get involved in more activities and studies to help us get there. But a key activity to keep on growing at this stage it means you need to give and not just get. Keep looking to your left, I know that is hard for any hard core Republicans here today, but we need to be looking for who we can help grow in their relationship with Christ.    That is what makes a healthy church, that is what makes a church an adopting church.   That's the kind of stuff that makes me love my church. Where do I …?  StartBeing a welcoming and welfare church is essential and foundational to all the other “one another's” in Scripture and our relationships with each otherIf we do not even know one another there is no way that we can enter into one another's lives and certainly do not have the right to intrude deeply into someone's life whom we really do not know or understand.    Because the deeper the relationships we have in someone's life, the deeper the ministry we can have! You cannot take care of and know everyone at MVC so I would encourage you to begin with your own neighborhood. What is your neighborhood at MVC – the section you are sitting in.  – look around for a moment at your neighbors. Start there on the block you sit in – consider row you sit in How about your neighbors – those who sit in front of or behind you and those next to you.  Crazy idea – for those of you who get here early and grab the end seats on your row – what if you saw someone looking to find a seat and rather than pretending as if you do not see them, you invite them into your row and welcome them as they come in.   Let's close by actually practicing five minutes of welcoming and welfare – find someone you not know (neighborhood).  Get to know name, a bit about each other and one thing you could be praying for one another this week.   (maybe even pray right then if led)

Breast cancer diagnosis at age 40. Eleven days after a clear mammogram, she found a lump. She could have ignored it after a clear mammogram and a quick exam by her OB/GYN saying it was nothing. But after four months, it was still there, so she went to see a breast oncologist…which still showed nothing, which is terrifying! The results from the biopsy finally showed that she had invasive breast cancer. Today, she shares her story and how you can take your health your health in your own hands to live your healthiest and best life!You will hear more about:How it's always best to follow your gut, especially when your not getting answers from your doctors  Why it's always important to know your own bodyThe #1 thing you can do to talk to your doctor without being dismissedIf only 5 - 10% of breast cancers are genetic, what are the other factors and how can we change those thingsThe best way to look at a negative situation... like a breast cancer diagnosis!The easiest way you can start making changes in your life and healthSamantha's favorite “clean” productsAnd so much more!More about Samantha:Watched by millions as the co-host of Dancing with the Stars and Entertainment Tonight, Samantha Harris is an Emmy Award-winning TV host and journalist, bestselling author, Certified Health Coach and fitness trainer, nutrition advocate, and promoter of healthy living.Her 2014 stage II invasive breast cancer diagnosis at age 40 inspired a quest for answers about how we can all improve our overall health, prevent chronic diseases, and understand their underlying causes.

Thank you for listening!Let's use today's episode to discuss how we have to let go so we can grow. This process is part of life that comes to mind when we lose loved ones, as I have experienced several times this year. It's also an important part of identifying what has served us well in the past that might need to be let go for future growth. Let's take a closer look as we explore the concept of letting go.Show Highlights:Why we need to start with attachment–and what it means to let goHow we should evaluate the people in our lives–Are they giving us room to grow?How to evaluate the story we are telling ourselves and take inventoryWhy we as coaches need to let go of the need to prove our valueAs you close out 2022: What is serving you, and what is holding you back?How I have had to let go in my career–to step into new and exciting thingsThe power in the awareness of what you really want and what is best serving youThe value in practicing gratitudeKey takeaways to remember about letting go to grow: increase awareness of your vision, take inventory of what's working/what's not, journal about where you want to be, meditate and be mindful, give yourself time and grace, embrace the emotion, practice gratitude, create a mantra to combat your old storyline, and surround yourself with encouraging/supportive people“What do you want to let go of so you can grow into who you want to be?”A look back at the biggest highlights of the STaR Coach Show in 2022Resources:Explore the past episodes and other resources at wwwSTtaRcoachshow.com.
