Mike talks to director Lee Kirk about his new Green Day comedy, Nimrods, which follows a group of teenagers who road-trip to Los Angeles for the chance to open for their heroes, Green Day, on New Year’s Eve. Lee shares how he first connected with Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong, the real-life band stories that inspired the movie, and what it was like directing a cast that includes Green Day playing themselves, Mason Thames, Mckenna Grace and Lee’s wife, Jenna Fischer. In the Movie Review, Mike talks about Super Troopers 3. The troopers try to bring down a new drug ring, while Farva's wildly over-the-top engagement to Thorny's sister spirals into chaos. Mike talks about why he thinks this proves comedy movies are dead, why Broken Lizard's comedy has aged poorly and what movie they should have made instead of this one. In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about Jumanji: Open World where the in-game avatars Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, Kevin Hart, and Karen Gillan enter reality stuck in malfunctioning "demo mode," forcing real-world humans to step inside the game to fix it. Mike shares why people are outraged at Sony and the Rock’s Top 10 highest grossing movies. Get tickets to see NIMRODS in theaters August 14th! New Episodes Every Monday!

An epic three-hour FiliRoxster! OMG, grumpy Grampy MAGAT is back on the steam catapults . . . even as AMERICAN SAILORS are trying to kill themselves just to get away from hell-on-earth aboard one of the gems (germs?) of the fleet. Never mind the sailors. Daddy wants to rip the guts out of the Ford to install technology we used in WW II. That high-pitched distant sound on the wind that you hear? That's Trump's handler, Pooty, giggling in pure glee.  Karoline "Real Poo-Poo" Leavitt deciding to bounce because Marcus Whorelius left her as missile fodder in favor of his Diaper Nanny rather pales in comparison. Still, it was enough to make her bail.

What starts as a conversation about Missouri float trips quickly spirals into absolute Rizz Show nonsense. The gang debates the best rivers to float, tells stories about cliff jumping, beer helmets, and questionable rafting decisions before taking a hard left into one of the weirdest mornings we've had in a while.Then...the studio fire alarm goes off.In real time, the crew debates whether to abandon the building, compares themselves to the captain of the Costa Concordia, questions maritime law, and somehow turns an emergency evacuation into comedy. Fortunately, everyone survives the "catastrophe" and returns to the studio with nothing more than bruised egos and a fresh appreciation for construction dust.As if that wasn't enough, Learn celebrates National Hot Dog Day with Steve's Hot Dogs, the crew argues about the proper way to eat a hot dog without looking ridiculous, and everyone collectively decides the word "glizzy" deserves to disappear forever.Missouri news keeps the chaos rolling as the crew debates higher interstate speed limits, gets completely lost trying to figure out daylight saving time, celebrates Lion's Choice landing on USA Today's best regional fast food list, and somehow manages to make basic legislation sound impossibly confusing.Meanwhile, Moon discovers an actual beetle inside a bag of coffee, decides to brew it anyway, and accidentally sends everyone into a discussion about FDA limits on insect parts in food that absolutely nobody asked for but everyone somehow needed.Add in bizarre lawsuits, White Castle stories, documentaries, celebrity tangents, weird news, listener emails, and the usual sarcastic back-and-forth, and you've got another completely normal day...by Rizz Show standards.Then the building catches everyone's attention with a fire alarm, Rizz refuses to evacuate because apparently radio hosts go down with the ship, and somehow the conversation spirals into MySpace, CDs making a comeback, William Shatner becoming a metal frontman at 95, and why nobody under 25 knows who Hole is anymore.Just another Tuesday.This episode starts with excitement surrounding the upcoming Super Troopers 3 as the Broken Lizard crew prepares to visit the studio, giving everyone an excuse to geek out over one of the greatest comedy franchises ever made. Before they arrive, the crew jumps into Crap on Celebrities, where nostalgia absolutely takes over.Could MySpace actually deserve more respect than it gets? Turns out the platform helped launch artists like Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Adele, and even Dane Cook before social media became the attention economy we know today. That naturally leads into everyone's embarrassing MySpace memories, Top 8 drama, party bulletins, and the strange realization that we all willingly learned HTML just to put terrible music on our profiles.Speaking of things nobody expected to return...CDs are suddenly making a comeback. Yes... actual compact discs. The crew debates whether anyone even owns a CD player anymore, whether physical media still matters, and whether younger generations are rediscovering something older fans never completely gave up on. It's part nostalgia, part technology debate, and part excuse for Moon to become the resident audio nerd.Then things somehow become even stranger.William Shatner is officially performing heavy metal songs at Riot Fest... at ninety-five years old.If you've ever wondered how you pitch a Super Troopers sequel that somehow revolves around Farva marrying Thorny's sister... congratulations, you're exactly the kind of person who belongs here.The Broken Lizard crew joins The Rizzuto Show to pull back the curtain on Super Troopers 3, hitting theaters August 7. They explain how the movie evolved into a massive wedding comedy inspired by real-life Indian wedding celebrations, why an elephant became part of the insanity, and how Farva once again manages to become everyone's favorite walking HR violation.Along the way, the guys talk about stepping back into those famous uniforms, convincing Brian Cox to return after becoming television royalty on Succession, and what it's feels like watching one of the greatest actors alive casually roast everyone on set. Turns out working with Brian Cox means getting insulted by a professional... and somehow enjoying every second of it.Of course, this wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without the rails disappearing almost immediately. Rafe spends an uncomfortable amount of time explaining his ongoing campaign to become everyone's stepdad by marrying their mothers. Somehow that transitions into discussions about prison etiquette, monster trucks replacing elephants at weddings, popcorn buckets becoming collector's items, and whether Potfest will ever actually happen.The conversation also covers the incredible crowdfunding success behind Super Troopers 2, the eight-year journey to making the third film, hidden pop culture references fans should watch for, and why you absolutely need to stay after the credits.If you're a longtime Broken Lizard fan, a movie nerd, or just someone who appreciates comedians who somehow built an entire career making hilarious movies with their best friends, this episode delivers nonstop laughs from start to finish.This comedy podcast is proudly made in St. Louis with the same chaotic energy you've come to expect from The Rizzuto Show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Crews to resume search for possible drowning in Meramec River near CastlewoodUS House passes bill to make daylight saving time permanentHouse passes Trump-backed bill that would make daylight saving time permanentMissouri approves new 75 mph maximum speed limitLion's Choice up for best regional fast foodRural NY School District Will Be One of First to Bring Humanoid Robot Into ClassroomHumanoid robots perform live surgery in world firstMirrors in Space?

We're starting off here by talking about how many of us have this little voice inside our heads that asks the question: Am I enough? It sometimes gets louder after we've made a mess of things...and we've all made a mess of things. Since we all live with that voice I want us to sit with Paul's words, "There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." No condemnation. That isn't just good news, it's like a whole world being opened up in front of us. But that's not the end for Paul; it's just the beginning. Jesus tells a story about a farmer who just sows seeds, like, all over the place. God scatters seed with reckless abandon. Everyone is invited. The seed lands on all kinds of ground just as grace arrives in all kinds of lives. Maybe we've spent years analyzing the soil of our lives. Rocky? Thorny? Hardened? Notice that Jesus never said any patch of ground is permanently doomed. Rocks and thorns can be removed. Hardened ground can be broken up. Paul gets this when he talks about living according to the flesh and living according to the Spirit. It's like two different kinds of soil. Jesus loves to talk about plants and growth, and if there's one thing we know about growth, it is that it's slow. The invitation here from Paul and Jesus isn't to try harder. It's to become softer. More receptive and less defensive. More open to change and less afraid of it. Because the promise of these two passages seems to be: when soil opens itself to grace, when the heart makes room for the Spirit, life begins to emerge where we thought only death existed. There is no condemnation. That's where it starts. Then growth and transformation happen slowly. And maybe, years from now, someone will find themselves standing in the shade of the tree that is your life that grew from a seed you don't ever remember being planted.

Welcome to Episode 665 of the Veg Grower Podcast. This week Richard shares a classic mix of summer gardening jobs — fruit thinning, sweetcorn planting, slug control, greenhouse tidying — plus our Seed of the Month, a refreshing cabbage slaw recipe, and a look at July's Book of the Month. It's been warm and humid on the allotment, but thanks to straw mulch and careful watering, everything is thriving. Let's dive into what's been happening this week. Down the Allotment The allotment has been busy with seasonal tasks, starting with fruit thinning after the June drop. Richard explains why apples and pears shed fruit naturally, and why thinning further helps produce bigger, tastier fruit and prevents biennial bearing. It's a job that feels counter‑intuitive, but the long-term benefits are worth it. Gooseberries are ready, but harvesting them has become nearly impossible due to thorns and invading brambles. Richard shares his difficult decision to dig up the existing bushes and replant with thornless varieties to make the area more productive and easier to maintain. Elsewhere on the plot: Straw mulch continues to reduce watering needs Leeks are being held back until cooler, wetter weather The final batch of sweetcorn has been planted New potatoes, courgettes, rhubarb and cabbage are being harvested A surprise rat encounter added a bit of drama to the week Tune in to hear the full story and Richard's thoughts on keeping the allotment productive. Seed of the Month — Kohlrabi This month's seed is kohlrabi, a quirky root crop that looks alien but tastes fantastic — sweeter than turnips and incredibly versatile. Richard shares: How he sows it directly into the soil Why consistent moisture is essential How to thin seedlings to 20–25cm spacing Why harvesting at golf‑ball size gives the best flavour How flea beetle and slugs can be managed Ways to use kohlrabi in the kitchen, including roasting, stir‑fries and slaws And a reminder that the leaves are edible too It's a great crop for summer sowing and offers two harvests from one plant. In the Kitchen Garden The kitchen garden has been all about organisation this week. Richard tidied the area in front of the greenhouse, sorted pots, removed weeds, and potted up cabbage, swede and late brassicas. The chickens' area also had a tidy, making the whole garden feel calmer and more productive. Slug & Snail Battles Slugs and snails have been relentless this year, especially around the bean plants. Richard shares several methods he's using: Yeast traps made from wine sediment Watering in the morning Upturned pots to collect slugs overnight Feeding trapped slugs to chickens and birds It's a constant challenge, but numbers are slowly coming down. General Garden Notes Tomatoes are loving the warm weather Herbs are thriving but dry Mulch continues to help retain moisture Courgettes and other crops are producing well Marigolds are being deadheaded daily to keep flowers coming The kitchen garden is productive, colourful and full of life. Recipe of the Week Summer Cabbage & Peanut Slaw with Lime & Chili Dressing This week's recipe turns a humble summer cabbage into something exciting. Richard grates cabbage, carrot and red onion, adds fresh herbs and chili, and finishes with a zingy lime dressing and roasted peanuts. It's crunchy, refreshing, and perfect for warm weather. You can find the full recipe on the blog. Book of the Month — The Victorian Kitchen Garden by Jennifer Davies Richard reviews this classic book, which accompanies the BBC series of the same name. He explores: Victorian walled gardens Skilled head gardeners Coal‑heated greenhouses Hotbeds made from fresh manure Fruit‑tree training Soil care and mulching Season extension techniques The craftsmanship and attention to detail of Victorian growers

Friend of the show, columnist Jay Bookman reminds us (and Rick Jackson) of the "Rick Jackson" Rick recalls himself being as a child: impoverished and in need. As Bookman opines, it's as if Jackson forgot that child version of himself on route to crafting the sort of policies he'd put in place if he were to become Georgia's next governor.- - - Revisiting a conversation I had with Mary Rose Wood, a brave "bad ass" (her brother's term) who's a high school teacher in Chapin, SC. There she was smeared on school board candidates' campaign mailer as "communist." All because she had her AP language arts students read a Ta-Nehisi Coates book. The south gonna "south," right?Anyhow, we discussed her story, brush with fame (and fear) in that small SC town.

The Folly's End Podcast 2026 - The Life Of Jesus - 05 - The Parable Of The Sower - The Solutions to the Thorny GroundIn this episode, Gareth and Jessi continue exploring the meaning of “the thorny ground” describing people that understand God's Word and let it take root, but allow it's growth to be choked by everyday tasks, the need for wealth, and other distractions. With these worldly pressures and increasing scarcity of time - Gareth and Jessi emphasise the importance of prioritising the word of God so the scripture isn't choked and can bare spiritual fruit.References: Mark 4:18, Matthew 6:19–21, Matthew 6:33, Matthew 7:6, Matthew 5:37, Ephesians 6:6–13, Psalms 46:10, 1 Peter 5:7, Luke 12:6–7, 1 Corinthians 6:19–20, Jeremiah 33:3, Deuteronomy 8:18, Psalms 35:27, John 15:15, Romans 8:17, Philippians 4:19, Luke 6:38

The issue of Thai nominees has heated up in the past little while, with daily news stories about crackdowns, changing laws, and foreigners running scared (or just running).  The discussion begins with Ed outlining the basic framework of the Thai Foreign Business Act, explaining how it restricts foreigners from owning more than forty-nine percent of companies in certain restricted sectors. He details how this legal hurdle gave rise to the widespread use of Thai nominees, where Thai citizens are paid to hold fifty-one percent of the shares on paper, allowing the foreigner to maintain operational control. Next, Ed brings up the legal gray area surrounding this practice. He clarifies that while having genuine Thai business partners is perfectly fine, using fake nominee shareholders who possess no actual financial stake or voting power is strictly illegal under Thai law. Greg then steers the conversation toward recent government crackdowns on this practice. He discusses how authorities have been aggressively targeting blatant abuses of the nominee system, specifically focusing on certain foreign-owned businesses in tourist hotspots like Phuket and parts of Bangkok. Ed subsequently highlights the massive risks that foreigners take when utilizing these shady corporate structures. He points out that because the Thai nominee legally owns the majority of the company, the foreign investor has almost zero legal recourse if the nominee suddenly decides to seize control of the assets or the business bank accounts. Finally, Greg wraps up the topic by suggesting legitimate alternatives to the nominee route. He points out that foreign entrepreneurs should instead look into the Board of Investment promotion or the US-Thai Treaty of Amity, both of which offer legal pathways to complete foreign ownership without the associated risks.

Movie Mike counts down his Top 10 Best and Worst Movies of the decade as we are well over halfway into 2026. He breaks down the scenes that have defined modern cinema, these top movie quotes and the most gut wrenching movie so far of the decade that still chokes him up to this day. On the flip side, Mike doesn’t hold back on the Worst Movies of the year, calling out superhero misfires and breaking down what went wrong with some of Hollywood’s weakest offerings of the decade and some of all-time. In the Movie Review, Mike talks about the new supernatural horror film Hokum starring Adam Scott. He plays a novelist who travels to a remote hotel to scatter his parents' ashes and is consumed by tales of a witch haunting the honeymoon suite. Mike shares whether he thinks it’s really the scariest movie of the year, the single frame that may have scarred him for life and why it feels like a modern day “Shining”. In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about Super Troopers 3 which leads him to ask the question “what year are we living in???”. This time, the troopers try to bring down a new drug ring, while Farva's wildly over-the-top engagement to Thorny's sister spirals into chaos. Mike talks about the best 'Broken Lizard' movies, his top 5 Super Troopers Quotes and his most viral clip with the cast of the movie. New Episodes Every Monday!

Colorado has a part-time, citizen legislature, driven by the notion that it's important to have people from all kinds of professional backgrounds bringing their experience to lawmaking. So for four months every year, state legislators pause their regular lives to be at the Capitol. But the flexibility to do that can be hard to come by, and some say the pay — currently around $47,000 a year — makes things even harder. Now, an approach lawmakers hoped would take the politics out of the pay raise process could end up boosting their wages at the worst possible time.CPR's Bente Birkeland and KUNC's Lucas Brady Woods lean into the ongoing debate and tension around how much state lawmakers earn, what it means for the legislative process and the variety of fixes, from the financial to the fundamental, some have proposed. Catch up on our latest coverage: CPR News: How much are Colorado's state legislators paid? CPR News: Amid budget cuts, legislators and statewide office holders set for pay increases next year The Independent Elected State Official Pay Commission's 2025 Pay Report Purplish is produced by CPR News and the Capitol News Alliance, a collaboration between KUNC News, Colorado Public Radio, Rocky Mountain PBS, and The Colorado Sun, and shared with Rocky Mountain Community Radio and other news organizations across the state. Startup funding for the Alliance was provided, in part, by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.Purplish's producer is Stephanie Wolf. Sound design and engineering by Shane Rumsey. The theme music is by Brad Turner. Megan Verlee is the executive producer. Additional reporting for this episode from Rae Solomon.

Main Theme Knowing and doing God's will is essential for a fruitful Christian life. The key factor in discerning and living out God's will is the condition of your heart. Introduction Worship includes receiving God's Word. Series focus: finding/knowing God's will. Message title: “Your heart matters.” Physical heart illustration → emphasizes importance and function. Spiritual heart = intellect, will, emotions (the “real you”). Importance of the Heart The heart determines character and decisions. Types of unhealthy hearts: hardened, bitter, impure. Healthy heart = pure, good, pleasing to God. Spiritual heart health is as critical as physical heart health. Decisions and Destiny Humans make ~35,000 decisions daily. Decisions shape destiny. Process: thought → action → habit → character → destiny. Heart and thoughts are deeply connected (Proverbs principle). God's Will and Planning Planning is good, but must include God (James 4). Key idea: “If the Lord wills.” Approach: Make plans. Submit them to God. Allow God to adjust them. God's will is always better than human plans. How God Reveals His Will Primary way: through Scripture (revealed will). Other ways (secondary): Circumstances Dreams Open/closed doors Other believers/spiritual authority Prophetic words Warning: Don't seek external guidance without knowing God's Word. Revealed vs. Unrevealed Will Revealed will (explicit in Scripture): Salvation (2 Peter 3:9) Sanctification/holiness (1 Thessalonians 4:3) Doing good (1 Peter 2:15) Unrevealed will (personal decisions): Which church to attend Who to marry What ministry to pursue Principle: Obey revealed will to better discern unrevealed will. Warning from Jesus (Matthew 7) Not everyone who says “Lord, Lord” will enter heaven. True disciples: those who do God's will. Danger of: Superficial faith Empty words Right actions with wrong motives Emphasis: obedience + right heart. Parable of the Sower (Luke 8) Seed = Word of God. Four types of soil (hearts): Hard path → Word stolen (no understanding). Rocky soil → No root; falls away in trials. Thorny soil → Choked by cares, riches, pleasures. Good soil → Produces fruit abundantly. Key lesson: the issue is not the seed, but the soil (heart). The Condition of the Heart Heart determines response to God's Word. Good heart = noble, receptive, persevering. Scripture emphasis: Guard your heart (Proverbs 4:23). Heart produces actions and speech (Jesus' teaching). Human heart is naturally sinful (Jeremiah). Cultivating a Healthy Heart Requires intentional effort (like tending a garden). Weeds (sin, bitterness, etc.) grow naturally. Needed responses: Repentance Prayer (“Create in me a clean heart”) Ongoing self-examination Possible issues: unforgiveness, bitterness, sin. Illustration: Power of the Word God's Word is incorruptible and powerful. Like a seed that can remain dormant but still produce life. Effectiveness depends on the condition of the heart. Example: King Josiah Rediscovered God's Word. Responded with repentance and humility. God honored his tender heart. Model of proper response to God's Word. Conclusion / Call to Action “Your heart matters.” Choose to cultivate a tender, responsive heart. Respond to God with repentance and obedience. Prayer for transformation and receptivity to God's Word.

The White House is experimenting with state-level immigration laws in Tennessee, but most of those proposals have hit resistance, and it's now do-or-die time for any bills. An expansion of private school vouchers is also far from a done deal with some Republicans objecting to doubling the program without performance data available. And the state's $58 billion budget has lobbyists in a frenzy to make sure their project is included. It's the biggest business that remains for the Tennessee legislature with members of the state house press corps as our guide.Guests: Marianna Bacallao, power & equity reporter, WPLN News Melissa Brown, bureau chief, Chalkbeat Tennessee Sarah Grace Taylor, reporter, Nashville Banner Erik Schelzig, editor, The Tennessee Journal Mandy Spears, executive vice president, Sycamore Institute

Perennials Plant Once, Harvest for Life | Episode 601 Growing food is one of the most important survival skills you can develop. A garden can feed your family, give you independence, and reduce your reliance on fragile supply chains. But let's be honest — gardens can also be a lot of work. Planting every year, maintaining beds, watering, fertilizing, harvesting. It takes time and effort. So what if you could plant something once and harvest from it for years or even decades? Today we're talking about perennials you plant once and harvest for life. Fruit Trees: Long-Term Food Security Fruit trees are one of the best investments you can make in a long-term food system. Apples, pears, peaches, plums, nectarines, cherries — once established they can produce food for decades with relatively little maintenance. The key advice here is simple: grow what you actually like to eat. If you love apples, plant apples. If you love peaches, plant peaches. But there's another opportunity here that many people overlook. Instead of growing the same varieties you see in grocery stores, grow unusual or specialty varieties. There are thousands of apple varieties alone. Some have unique flavors, unusual colors, or striking appearances. Things like pink-fleshed apples or deep purple varieties can stand out in farmers markets and command a higher price. If you’re going to plant trees that will produce for decades, you might as well plant something interesting. Avoid Monocropping Another reason to grow multiple varieties is resilience. If you plant twenty identical apple trees and a pest or disease hits that specific variety, you could lose your entire orchard. By planting different varieties, you reduce the risk and increase the overall resilience of your system. It also extends your harvest window since different varieties ripen at different times. Berry Bushes: Easy Perennial Calories Berry bushes are another excellent perennial food source. Blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries can produce fruit year after year once established. Many of them spread naturally and become even more productive over time. They're also easy to harvest and can fit into small spaces. Some berry bushes can even serve as natural barriers. Thorny plants like blackberries and raspberries can help deter animals or even people from wandering through certain areas. That means your food production can also double as a defensive landscape feature. Asparagus: A Perennial Vegetable Most vegetables are annuals, meaning you have to plant them every year. Asparagus is one of the rare exceptions. Once established, an asparagus patch can produce for 15–20 years or more. It takes a few years to get going, but once it does, it comes back every spring and keeps producing. It's one of the best “plant once, harvest for years” foods you can grow. Rhubarb and Perennial Herbs Rhubarb is another tough perennial plant that comes back year after year. It produces large stalks that can be used in pies, jams, and preserves. It's cold-tolerant and very hardy, making it a good option in many climates. Herbs are another category that often comes back year after year. Plants like mint, oregano, thyme, chives, and rosemary can continue growing season after season with minimal effort. Growing herbs at home saves money and keeps fresh flavor available anytime you need it. Instead of buying a bunch of herbs and letting half of it rot in the refrigerator, you can simply step outside and cut what you need. Nut Trees: High-Calorie Survival Food Finally, we have nut trees. Pecans, walnuts, and chestnuts produce calorie-dense foods that can feed people for generations. Nuts contain healthy fats and protein — things that can be harder to obtain in survival situations. Unlike annual crops, these trees can produce for decades or even longer, making them an excellent long-term investment for a food-producing landscape. Chestnuts are particularly interesting historically. The American chestnut once dominated forests across the eastern United States before blight nearly wiped it out. Today people are working to restore blight-resistant varieties, while Chinese chestnuts remain widely available and productive. Building a Perennial Food System The biggest takeaway from today's episode is simple. Annual gardens are great, but perennial food systems are powerful. Plant trees. Plant berry bushes. Plant herbs that come back every year. Add asparagus, rhubarb, and nut trees. These plants reduce your workload while increasing long-term food production. And the sooner you plant them, the sooner they start producing. Because when it comes to perennial food systems, the best time to plant them was yesterday. The second best time is today.

Website: Freegospelassembly.comYoutube: Free Gospel Church Assembly of GodMain Texts: 2 Corinthians 12:1-10 (especially verse 8, three times Paul pleaded means continually, over a period of time)Isaiah 38:4-6 (Hezekiah's experience of pleading prayer while God answers differently.)The main point illustrated in both thorny incidences is that God permits varied situation and that He promises to always answer our prayers, but He reserves the right to answer differently and in His time.God, our heavenly Father, will always respond to His children's cries: Matthew 7:7-12, “Continue to ask, seek, knock, and that He will answer us” is guaranteed but in His time and manner.Paul's “thorn in the flesh”: Satan is permitted to attack Paul, to prevent human conceit and pride. Consider Paul's extraordinary spiritual experiences and revelations (2Corinthians 12:1-7) and the danger of opening him up spiritual pride similar to those labeled by him as “super apostles” (2Corinthians 12:11-12), that were attacking him in Corinth. And while Paul didn't like it and prayed continuously (3 times) for God to lift it, God answered powerfully but differently, note verses 8 & 9.We don't know the nature of Paul's thorn, whether it was physical, spiritual, etc., it was serious enough for Paul to turn to continual pleading, and for Paul, relief came in several parts.Through a powerful prophetic word or oracle from God, whether directly or through another prophet, it is not known, but it was a powerful verse 8.It wasn't just a word or message but also a transfer of Holy Spirit power verse 9… Christ's power rests upon him to mitigate his thorny situation.This experience was so powerful that it ended in acceptance and worship verses 9 & 10.God's answer alleviated Paul in his weakened condition not only psychologically but practically, experientially; so that in the midst of his weakened state he became strong in the Lord.Hezekiah's pleading in Isaiah 38:1-6 was definitely a physical issue; it was an oracle of death delivered by Isaiah. And his pleading was intense and within a shorter amount of time.It started after an emphatic message from God through Isaiah verses 1-2.He turns to the Lord, in spite of Isaiah's word, and pleads for deliverance and healing verses 2-3.God responds in His manner and time: for Hezekiah it seems to be soon after his pleading: did God changed His mind (verses 4-6)? Also appended to God's answer to Hezekiah's answer was His merciful intervention for Jerusalem from their Assyrian oppressors (verse 6).It also ends in worship: see Hezekiah's Psalm of deliverance in Isaiah 38:9-20.In conclusion, Jesus pleaded with His father at Gethsemane and His father answered that while He would have to go to the cross, to atone for the sins of humanity, He will experience healing and victory through His Resurrection, Ascension, and Coronation as “Lord”: For all three, in their weakness, they experienced as an answer to their pleading, the strength of the Lord. They pleaded, He answered in His time and manner.AMEN

Ellen Coyne and Jack Horgan-Jones join Hugh to look back on the week in politics:Next week Fianna Fáil will get the long-awaited review into the circumstances around Jim Gavin's disastrous presidential campaign. Has the wait taken the sting out of the issue for Micheal Martin? The Government is worried about political fallout if it fails to vote against the EU's Mercosur trade deal. But any such vote could be purely symbolic. Another thorny issue for the coalition: lengthy waiting lists for assessments of need, the process by which children with additional needs are assigned educational supports. The situation has long been untenable but the proposed solution is also controversial. Hugh addresses some of the many comments that have come in about Wednesday's interview with Eoin Lenihan. Minister Patrick O'Donovan wants Ireland to move ahead of the EU to restrict how younger teenagers access social media. And finally the panel pick their favourite Irish Times journalism of the week.

In the twelfth episode of "The Mystery of Seeds," Duane Sheriff teaches on the parable of the sower, explaining the four types of ground where God's Word can be sown and Satan's specific strategies to steal the seed from each type of heart.The wayside ground represents hard-packed soil, similar to how sin hardens our hearts through deception. Satan steals the Word immediately by sowing confusion and lack of understanding. Stony ground refers to those who initially receive God's Word with joy but don't allow it to take root. Satan attacks through tribulation and persecution, leading to offense and causing them to abandon the seed. His primary tactic is to uproot good seed and replace it with bitterness. Thorny ground is choked by the cares of this world. Even powerful seeds cannot produce a fruitful harvest when competing with worries and worldly distractions.Guard your heart against the enemy's tactics by becoming good ground, soil that receives God's Word, takes deep root, and produces an abundant harvest of thirty, sixty, or a hundredfold.The Mystery of Seeds - Duane Sheriff Ministries
