In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into the intersection of social media, thorny topics, and the practice of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy. Social media can amplify sensitive issues, creating emotional triggers that can seep into the therapeutic space. How do EMDR therapists approach these thorny topics—sensitive, triggering, or uncomfortable subjects—while maintaining a safe and supportive environment?With EMDRIA Certified Therapist™ and Approved Consultant™ Rotem Brayer, we explore the challenges that EMDR therapists face when dealing with topics that are often shaped or influenced by online discourse, such as identity, cancel culture, political divides, and trauma responses. How do therapists navigate these conversations when social media discussions have left deep emotional marks on clients?Join us as we unpack the ethical considerations, techniques, and strategies used in the EMDR therapy room to address these complex issues while protecting the therapeutic relationship. Featuring expert insights, real-life examples, and thoughtful discussion, this episode offers valuable takeaways for clinicians and those navigating their healing journeys.Please tune in for a deep dive into how we can maintain empathy, safety, and healing in the age of digital influence.ResourcesWhat Is EMDR Therapy?Introduction to EMDR Therapy (video), EMDRIA, 2020Focal Point BlogEMDRIA™ Library EMDRIA™ Practice ResourcesEMDRIA FoundationEMDR Learning Community (Clinicians Only)Brayer, R.

When God Speaks, Are You Listening?

Statistics say that 23% of Americans are currently living with some form of mental illness. For most people, that calls for reaching out for help and receiving treatment and advice on management. But if you're an FAA-approved airline pilot, disclosing that you have something like a depressive disorder or an anxiety problem can mean a temporary pause or permanent end to your entire career. Of course, having a mental illness, not disclosing or getting treatment, and flying anyway presents a variety of problems as well. Dr. Helen Ouyang wrote about this in a recent New York Times Magazine article and joins us to unpack it all.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

In this episode, Jim talks about the habit of some deponents of qualifying their answers by using words like think, feel, believe, and presume. These words are known in academic and psychological circles as "linguistic hedges." They're common and harmless in social conversations. But in the unforgiving world of sworn testimony, they create a record suggesting witnesses don't know what they're talking about. Not only do hedges diminish the force of testimony, but they can render it entirely inadmissible. In the wrap-up, Jim provides specific practice strategies for impressing upon clients that the lax and incautious use of hedges can inflict grievous harm on their claims or defenses. He also explains how to train clients to avoid using hedges when testifying.SHOW NOTESStrategic Use Of (UN)certainty Expressions, Lorson, Cummins and Rohde, Frontiers in Communications, Mar. 18, 2021, https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/communication/articles/10.3389/fcomm.2021.635156/fullThe Use of Hedging in Research Articles on Applied Linguistics, Livytska, I., Journal of Language and Cultural Education (July 2019), https://sciendo.com/article/10.2478/jolace-2019-0003Hedging and Academic Writing: An Analysis of Lexical Hedges, Demir, C., Journal of Language and Linguistic Studies, 14(4) (2018), https://www.jlls.org/index.php/jlls/article/view/812Linguistic Hedging In The Light Of Politeness Theory, Vlasyan, G., European Proceedings of Social and Behavioural Sciences (2018), https://www.europeanproceedings.com/article/10.15405/epsbs.2018.04.02.98A Study of Hedges in Courtroom Oral Arguments from the Perspective of Contextual Adaption, Chen and Zhang, International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Publications, https://ijmrap.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IJMRAP-V4N8P114Y22.pdfHedging in Courtroom Discourse, Lebedeva and Gribanova, http://ial-journal.org/en/node/53Middleton v.

Such a statement is not sufficient as evidence and is inadmissible in its present form.

Rule 56(e)'s personal knowledge requirements prevents such statement "from raising genuine issues of fact sufficient to defeat summary judgment." Pace v.

As feng shui professionals, our hope is to help people manifest spaces that nurture and support them. We don't really like the word mistake or its click bait-y connotations. Anyone making the effort to invite more harmony and balance into their life is already on the right track, and the theme of today's episode isn't so much a list of mistakes that people make, but rather a list of commonly overlooked opportunities for growth within the home. Sometimes the solution to many of our obstacles is right in front of us, and today's episode is a list of tips to help see those opportunities more clearly.Discussed in this episode:-Why you may want to start small and simple-Why you should avoid dried, sick flowers and plants-Broken or obscured mirrors-Blocked doors-Beds without headboardsand much more!Download our free bagua e-kitThanks so much for listening to the Holistic Spaces Podcast brought to you by Mindful Design Feng Shui School!-Sign up for our newsletter for exclusive complimentary special workshops and offers for our newsletter subscribers ONLY! -Make sure you're following us on Instagram for feng shui tips and live Q&A's.-Learn about our courses and certification on our website at: Mindful Design School.-Check out our older episodes on our Holistic Spaces Podcast archive.MORE QUESTIONSHire one of our Mindful design school Grads for a 1-1 consultation.

Scripture: Mark 4:13–20 The post Rocky Ears and Thorny Hearts appeared first on Hope Bible Church.

Thorns usually have a negative connotation. Thorny situations. Thorny relationships. Injuries in the yard from working in the garden. We usually go out of the way to protect ourselves (and those we love) from experiencing the pain and wounds that thorns often cause. But is it possible that we are supposed to embrace the thorns that God has given to us? Was Paul crazy to use the words, “boast” and “content” when sharing about his pain? Can thorns in our life really be FROM God?

I did check the online price of a 2x4x8 at Home Depot, and it is still $3.85. A gallon of untainted regular gasoline remains at $3.599. Frugality Tip Halloween is my favorite holiday. We have a big Halloween party every year. I try to pick the theme in advance and then start gathering decorations when Halloween items go on clearance. For Halloween clearance shopping this year (so far) we got $300 retail value of items for less than $100. So hit the stores after the holiday and get more bang for your buck.  Happy savings y'all Operation Independence Cheese Class and Other Events Main topic of the Show: Five Oft-Overlooked Preps For The Homesteader With all the unrest in the economy, looming worldwide war, accelerating technology and the push from the ruling class (for lack of a better term) to keep we peons unhealthy, just in debt enough that we are too scared to go our own way, and obsessed with the “two” options that are the “only” options so that we fight with ourselves instead of see the true enemy, is it any wonder that, more and more, people want to get out of the cities and homestead? In a disaster a homestead is where you want to be, right? When you homestead, you go all in on Bugging In. 2 is 1 Appalachia and resilience - it's not just that it is rural. It is forgotten, abused, walked on, and easily cut off so people there rely on one another already Typical homestead journey: chickens, garden, canning, wood heat, bigger livestock, hobbies like spinning or woodworking or whatnot. Homesteaders have food covered - sort of. When was the last time you went to the feed store? Mindset shift: prepare for the most likely problems, not wwIII and you will weather wwIII better than if you “prepare” for it. FIVE OVERLOOKED PREPS Medical: Supplies for humans and livestock TRAINING, EDC - what do you have on you, Organization Bugging Out: Your plan is to bug in. Heck, my plan is to bug in. What is your plan if you have to leave quickly? Where are you going? How are you getting there? What will you use to travel? What about your livestock? Security: Beyond carrying a gun. TRAINING. What is the plan (who does what) if there is a two legged threat. What about four legged problems? How hard is it to get to your place?

What is it if you can't just fall back on TSC? How do you regenerate the food? And be honest? How much do you rely on the grocery store for humans.

As a homesteader you are likely more prepared in many ways than preppers in the city with lots of stuff and no skills, but how do we weather things for real? By getting better one day at a time and by eating the frog that we are avoiding so that we dont end up in a situation where we need a skill we could have built and we just didnt because it was distasteful.

For all you lost souls, reading books about how to be a better parent; For all you disciples of neoliberalism, believers in the new fascism, the elitist colonialism repackaged in a delusion tailor-made for people lured by the flattery of progress, fooled by a “new world” where the enlightened trample on the dead, comforted by the lie that they know better than all those who have ever lived, I have news for you:It's not “good” news; it's just news, but if you insist on labeling it, please consider it “bad news.”According to the Gospel of Luke, “a tree is known by its fruit.”Now, before you get together with your breakfast buddies and start gossiping about each other's children, again, I have “news” for you, Habibi.You are gossiping.Oops!Like Jesus said, there is no such thing as a “good” teacher or a “good” parent because, as far as the eye can see, there has never been a family tree that has produced a “good” result.You, Habibi, are the blind guide, just like the rest of us.Let's assume for a moment that the Platonic principle of the “moral arc of history” isn't wishful thinking and make the wild assumption that you are an improvement on your parents, an incremental step forward, part of the sum total of history your ancestors and your society have achieved.What's the result?What's happening now in the world after everything supposedly learned by man less than a century ago? What did we learn? Did the war ever stop?Did we “grow” in humility? Never mind that you can't “grow” into something small. It's a foolish statement, an antinomy.No, our behavior has not improved, as evidenced by your parents' fruit and yours.We used to use religion to whitewash our tombs. Now, we use liberal values, which cynically ridicule religion while embracing the fiction of religious nationalism in West Asia to justify the desperate agenda of the dollar. In the end, the mechanism—the function—is the same. In the modern West, our heartfelt, introspective, socially conscious, “normie” liberal values are leveraged as the new opium of the people: “bread and circuses” as the elitist machine rages forward.Luke's message is clear: There is no such thing as progress. We are no better than our parents; the judgment of Genesis 6 is written, and God almighty has spoken the truth. We dare not test him.No human tree ever bears good fruit. If there is any hope, we must put our hope in him.This week, I discuss Luke 6:43-45.Show Notesע-ץ-ץ (ayin-ṣadi-ṣadi) / ع-ض-ه (‘ayn-ḍād-hā')The Hebrew עֵץ (‘eṣ) can refer to “tree,” “timber,” “wood,” or even a “handle.” It has a functional connection to עצה (‘eṣah), which pertains to advice or counsel. In Arabic عِضَاه (‘iḍāh) can refer to thorny trees and shrubs commonly found in arid or desert regions. Aligns to δένδρον (dendron) in Luke 6:43. “When you besiege a city a long time, to make war against it in order to capture it, you shall not destroy its trees (צָעֵ, ‘eṣa) by swinging an axe against them; for you may eat from them, and you shall not cut them down. For is the tree (עֵץ, ‘eṣ) of the field a man, that it should be besieged by you?” (Deuteronomy 20:19)ס-נ-ה (samek-nun-he) / س-ن-ن (sīn-nūn-nūn)סְנֶה (s'neh) in biblical Hebrew can mean briar or bramble (a thorny, fruit-bearing bush), sometimes translated as “bush,” as follows in Exodus. It corresponds to βάτος (batos) in Luke 6:44:“The angel of the Lord appeared to him in a blazing fire from the midst of a bush (סְנֶה,s'neh); and he looked, and behold, the bush (סְנֶה,s'neh) was burning with fire, yet the bush (סְנֶה,s'neh) was not consumed.” (Exodus 3:2)In Arabic, sanan (سنن) is multi-functional. Though not directly used as “thorn” or “bush,” its root س-ن-ن (sīn-nūn-nūn) pertains to things like “point” or “sharp edge” and can relate to the idea of something pointed or thorn-like. The plural form, sunan, refers to “customs” or “practices,” particularly those of the Prophet Muhammad, known as Sunnah (سُنَّة), recalling, from the Bible, that wisdom has an edge and cuts against the grain:“The words of the wise are like goads, their collected sayings like firmly embedded nails—given by one Shepherd.” (Ecclesiastes 12:11) ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

So take a listen to this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast. Everyone has a story. 

Should our morality as a nation be grounded in God's will or the will of the people? Ironically, our advocates for a liberal secular democracy are okay as long as the majority is not held by Christians, especially those who run for office or who try to legislate according to biblical morality. Then you are labeled a "threat" to democracy! How do we apply the Lordship of Jesus to our public space? What does it mean to make disciples of all nations?

In the parable of the sower, Jesus compares the Word of God to seed falling on four different kinds of soil - hardened, shallow, thorny, and productive. Which soil does God's Word find in you? Pastor shows us a picture of a wheat field in Israel that is actually a battlefield, in the Valley of Elah, where David battled Goliath. It's an amazing battle in which God won the victory. The picture of this field reminds us that as Jesus tells the story of The Sower, He is speaking about warfare, spiritual warfare. God desires to bring every man, woman and child into His loving presence, but there is a battle raging over the human heart and in the human soul and it is a life or death matter. Seed has power and that's how it is with God's Word. His word that does not change is a powerful word. It is a life-changing word. God's word is a Living Word, and a word for us today. Seed= God's Word Four kinds of Soil. Which soil are you? 1. Pathway soil - hardened - where God's Word (seed) cannot grow. God pleads, “break up the hard ground” Jeremiah 4:3 2. Rocky soil - shallow - where the God's word - the Seed - sprouts and starts to grow but the roots cannot go down deep - shallow faith without deep roots cannot continue to mature. God desires we have deep roots and are firmly planted. 3. Thorny soil - divided - thorny soil is a picture of those who have divided loyalties in their lives. They know the Lord, but are also into this or that, or are enamored with things or stuck in worries about riches, paying the bills, the worries about health, the worries about how is it all going to turn out in the end, etc. These things can so quickly divert your attention from God and His Word and from the only thing that endures, and that is the living God. So He is telling us to weed out all of the thorn bushes in our lives, to make sure that those things are not choking out our faith, or driving us away from Him. 4. Good soil - produces fruit - God's desire is that we allow His Word to penetrate and permeate our lives, that we are people of prayer, people who practice our faith, that we be faithful, trustworthy, dedicated disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ, and that we produce much fruit. That means that our lives show more and more the power of God at work in us. It means that others can see in us, living examples of what it means to walk by faith in every situation, in the good days and in the difficult times as well. Jesus is calling us to be good soil. When Jesus told this story, The Parable of the Sower, He wasn't simply telling a story that people could recount generation after generation. He was speaking profound divine truth. God's Word has power. It's transforming. In His word we have the death and resurrection of Jesus, Who gives life to all who repent and believe. His promise is that He will bring forth incredible fruit in our lives as we walk by faith, as we cling to His Word, as we trust Him in every circumstance, as we show His love to others, as we call on God in prayer, and experience daily the joy of His presence and the power His Holy Spirit. I Peter 1:23, “You have been born again.” You been reborn. You have a new birth. How? Not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring Word of God.” It is a powerful Word. Seed does amazing things. It imparts life and God's Word is life. Jesus Christ, the living Word of God is life. In Him there is life and hope and joy and peace. Scripture sources: - Luke 8:4-9; 11-15; Jeremiah 4:3; 1 Peter 1:23; John 8:31-32 https://www.awakeusnow.com The Parables of Jesus is part two of our Two Year Study of the Gospels. Jesus is known for telling some of the greatest stories ever told. In telling these stories He uses the form of a parable which is an earthly story with a heavenly meaning. Jesus' parables resonate in every culture and in every generation around the world. This study is great for large group. small group or home group Bible study.

We continue in the Parable of the Sower, with the thorny soilwhich is one of the biggest warnings to us in the whole Bibleand good soilwhich shows us what it's like to genueinly recieve Jesus and his gospel

Dear listener, where have you been?!? We are tasked for a mission with an estimated departure time of now! Your old boy Tonepoet simply refuses to set sail into the cosmic horizon as a lone voyager. Our standard operating procedure mandates a strict directive for enlisting a co-pilot; one worthy of commandeering a vessel that bends the horizon while burning the skies, leaving behind a vapor trail of dreams and aspirations. You, my dear listener, are that co-pilot. All aboard! This mission is not one to disregard or discount in any way. A tapestry pathway automates the controls that guide us towards a universe that exists within a very small space: the space between your ears. This is where the dream lives. With this session, we will fill the crevices of confusion and stress with an auditory putty, one that consists of equal parts solitude, hope, love, and wonderment. With this putty we hope to banish aforementioned confusion and stress. Dial your mental compass toward the curtain of cosmic ether and allow the blanket of sound provided to emanate a warmth that caresses your soul and lifts you into an elevated state. Yes, dear listener, our mission is an investment into you! The plateau that we seek is one of self realization that you are a larger-than-life carbon entity filled with a passion to strive for an optimal creative flow. It is in this instance that I will assume duties as the co-pilot as we touch down into your place of clarity where the sun never sets. Your lighted soul will pierce the heavens, and move through the air at the speed of light. You've got this! As you drift into this zone, remember to look around you and appreciate everyone as you share good thoughts in effort to reap the sweet nectar of karma. Once you become synonymous with your dreams, be sure to assist other with achieving similar outcomes. The dream is here, you just need to reach out to it. What are you waiting for?

When Will Butler left his band Arcade Fire, he didn't know what would happen next. With a Grammy on his shelf and an Oscar nomination for his musical score on Spike Jonze's “Her,” it seemed like he could do anything — why not Broadway? Now, he's written and composed the music for “Stereophonic,” a new play that was recently nominated for a record-breaking 13 Tony Awards. Set in the 1970s, it follows a fictional rock band on the cusp of superstardom as they struggle through recording their new album. Will talks to Tom about which moments from the play felt like he was dipping into his own past, how a band's relationships influence their art, and why it was good he didn't know anything about ‘70s rock music.

Luke 8:4-154 While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, he told this parable: 5 “A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds ate it up. 6 Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the plants withered because they had no moisture. 7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the plants. 8 Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown.”When he said this, he called out, “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.”9 His disciples asked him what this parable meant. 10 He said, “The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that,“ ‘though seeing, they may not see;though hearing, they may not understand.'11 “This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God. 12 Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. 13 Those on the rocky ground are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away. 14 The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life's worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature. 15 But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.

Summer 2024 Gospel Meeting Lesson 8: The Thorny Ground by Nathan Springer

In 2 Corinthians, Paul rejoices in one of the useful reminders that God placed in his life. He doesn't describe it with great clarity but one thing's for certain, it's wasn't a sticky note. The reality is that God's grace is often seen most clearly in our lives, not in the glorious experiences we imagine, but when you and I are in knee-deep in the midst of our weaknesses.
