He shares his inspiration for starting a blog and writing a book, emphasizing the need for radical Catholicism in a culture of beige Catholicism. Dr. Chap explores the importance of prayer and the role of liturgy as the highest act of culture. He also discusses the connection between cult, culture, and cultivation, as well as the significance of localism and subsidiarity. The conversation concludes with a focus on the universal call to holiness. * In this conversation, Larry Chapp and Will Wright discuss various themes related to evangelization and the Catholic faith. They explore the importance of welcoming others into the Church on Christ's terms, rather than compromising on doctrine. They also discuss the need for a balanced approach to evangelization, avoiding both a superficial apologetic mode and a self-righteous approach. They emphasize the importance of understanding the question behind the question and empathizing with the struggles of others. They also discuss the need for deep prayer and contemplation in order to effectively evangelize. Finally, they explore the controversy surrounding the theology of Hans Urs von Balthasar. * In this conversation, Larry Chapp and Will Wright discuss the theological work of Hans Urs von Balthazar. They explore Balthazar's dialogue with German idealism, the evolution of ideas and Bible critique, the desire for truth and its service to the church, Balthazar's primary vocation and importance to the church, the impact of theology on catechesis, and recommended readings for understanding Balthazar.Takeaways* Embrace radical Catholicism in a culture of beige Catholicism.* Prioritize prayer and make it a central part of daily life.* Recognize the importance of liturgy as the highest act of culture.* Cultivate a connection between faith, culture, and the land.* Embrace the principles of localism and subsidiarity.* Answer the universal call to holiness in your own life. Welcoming others into the Church should be done on Christ's terms, not compromising on doctrine.* Effective evangelization requires understanding the question behind the question and empathizing with the struggles of others.* Deep prayer and contemplation are essential for effective evangelization.* The theology of Hans Urs von Balthasar, while controversial, offers insights into the suffering and solidarity of Christ. Hans Urs von Balthazar engaged in a dialogue with German idealism in his theological work.* The evolution of ideas and Bible critique can be traced back further than the Enlightenment.* The desire for truth and continual examination of the mystery of Christ is important as long as it serves the church.* Balthazar's theology is of profound importance to the church and has influenced theologians like John Paul II and Ratzinger.* Theology has a direct impact on how catechesis is conducted.* To understand Balthazar, it is recommended to start with his work 'Theologic' and volume five of 'Theological Aesthetics' where he engages with Aquinas.Chapters* 00:00 - Introduction and Background* 01:00 - Dr. Larry Chapp's Journey* 03:28 - Transition to Catholic Worker Farm* 05:01 - Starting a Blog and Writing a Book* 07:14 - Inspiration for Good Distinctions* 09:03 - Critique of Beige Catholicism* 14:31 - The Choice and Radical Catholicism* 19:21 - Individual vs. Collective* 21:38 - The Importance of Prayer* 26:21 - Liturgy as the Highest Act of Culture* 31:38 - Cult, Culture, and Cultivation* 35:11 - Localism and Subsidiarity* 39:05 - The Universal Call to Holiness* 41:46 - The Church's Terms* 42:25 - Compassion and Mercy* 43:13 - Ultra Progressive vs. Ultra Orthodox* 44:09 - Cultivating Soil for Evangelization* 45:05 - Understanding the Question Behind the Question* 46:08 - Stepping into Their Shoes* 47:24 - Moving Beyond Argument Mode* 48:20 - Reformulating the Question* 49:31 - Taking Questions Seriously* 50:31 - The Need for Deeper Teaching* 51:28 - Translating Big Ideas into Common Words* 52:41 - The Importance of Prayer and Contemplation* 53:34 - God Speaking to Us* 54:23 - The Thin Veil Between Worlds* 57:13 - The Influence of Protestant Views of Atonement* 58:15 - The Doctrine of the Mass of Damn Not* 59:43 - A Positive Vision of Salvation* 01:01:59 - Motivation to Evangelize* 01:04:11 - Living for Christ* 01:06:31 - The Controversial Theology of Hans Urs von Balthasar* 01:09:20 - The Loneliness of Jesus* 01:21:36 - Balthazar's Dialogue with German Idealism* 01:22:10 - The Evolution of Ideas and Bible Critique* 01:23:07 - The Desire for Truth and the Service of the Church* 01:23:42 - Balthazar's Primary Vocation and Importance to the Church* 01:24:17 - The Impact of Theology on Catechesis* 01:25:02 - Recommended Readings for Understanding Balthazar* 01:25:41 - Conclusion and Farewell

Play Episode Listen Later Dec 4, 2023 26:37


In the world of anesthesia, Articaine is a product riddled with controversy. Whilst recent studies have proved that Articaine is relatively safe to use, many are still skeptical due to the previous narrative that Articaine has a higher chance of causing paralysis than Lidocaine and other anesthetics. So today, we sit down with Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon, Dr. Ben Hechler, to get to the bottom of Articaine's safety by unpacking a few studies that were published in the last five years.  Our first study denotes that on an absolute scale, Articaine is not riskier to use than Lidocaine, and Dr. Ben explains why he agrees wholeheartedly. We also discuss anesthetic efficiency and discover that, once again, there is little to separate Articaine and Lidocaine. To end, both our host and guest detail how they use Articaine in their practices and Dr. Ben explains why every oral surgeon should be embracing Articaine instead of running away from it.Key Points From This Episode:Why we've chosen to speak about Articaine and we dive into our first case study. Dr. Ben explains what he likes about the study in question.How there's no definitive proof that Articaine causes paralysis more than Lidocaine. The second article that we discuss explores anesthetic efficiency. How Articaine is slightly more effective than Lidocaine (within certain parameters).The way Doctors Ben and Grant use Articaine in their practices. Why Articaine should be embraced by all oral surgeons. Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Ben Hechler on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-hechler/   ‘Does the Use of Articaine Increase the Risk of Hypesthesia in Lower Third Molar Surgery?

Denial and avoidance are common reactions to experiencing a failure, but these actions might only serve to make things worse for you. Dealing with failure in a responsible, proactive manner is an important life skill for all humans to have, and even more so for those with a scalpel in their hands. Now, you may consider him as our resident co-host or maybe our most frequent guest. In either case, Dr. Ben Hechler is back with more expert tips and tricks, this time on how to better navigate failure as an oral maxillofacial surgeon. We discuss Dr. Ben's coping mechanisms and other healthy ways of dealing with failure, why it's vital to have adequate protocols in place for overcoming surgical complications, how your daily activities (including what you eat) influence your ability to cope with failure, and why we all need to avoid denial and accept responsibility when things don't go out way. Excellent communication is an important aspect of handling failure as it builds trust with patients and provides a platform for your colleagues to help you wherever they can, and using failure as motivation for improvement is a sure way to prevent blaming others and indeed yourself. After assessing how failure plays out in gender roles and why there's this distinction in the first place, we hear about Ben and Grant's favorite movies and series before ending with some valuable lessons on failure as taught by Michael Jordan and LeBron James.Key Points From This Episode:Welcoming Dr. Ben Hechler as he shares his initial thoughts on failure as an OMS. Coping mechanisms: how to accept and deal with failure. Why it's important to develop a system or protocol for dealing with complications. How daily life activities can influence the way you deal with failure at work. Avoiding denial and accepting responsibility.  Why surgeons may be traumatized after complications, and how their colleagues can help. The second victim, professional burnout, and using failure as motivation for improvement. How OMS failure plays out within gender roles.A brief outro: Ben and Grant's favorite things to watch in their downtime.  What Michael Jordan and LeBron James teach us about overcoming failure. Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Ben Hechler on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-hechler/ Blue Cross North Carolina — https://www.bluecrossnc.com/ ‘Complications: acknowledging, managing, and coping with human error' — https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5583051/  Crime and Punishment — https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7144.Crime_and_Punishment ‘Combating professional burnout' — https://www.joms.org/article/S0278-2391(84)80004-X/fulltext KLS Martin — https://www.klsmartin.com/en/ Everyday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059
