Bill would protect immigrant children from President-elect Donald Trump's stated plan for mass deportationsTorrance, CA – Assemblymember Al Muratsuchi (D-Torrance), Chair of the Assembly Education Committee, introduced Assembly Bill 49, a bill that would protect immigrant children from actions by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers who enter school sites or child care facilities. The bill would prohibit school or child care employees from allowing ICE officers to enter a school site or child care facility for any purpose without providing valid identification, a written statement of purpose, a valid judicial warrant, and approval from the school district's superintendent or director of the child care center. The bill also would require that if an ICE official meets the requirements to enter a school site or child care facility, their access would be restricted to school or child care facilities where students or children are not present."All children have a constitutional right to attend public schools, regardless of immigration status," stated Assemblymember Muratsuchi. "Unfortunately, the threat of federal immigration officials coming onto school grounds to detain undocumented students or family members casts a shadow of fear over all California students. Students cannot learn if they are living in fear of being deported or separated from their family members. This bill is necessary because children should not be afraid to come to school, and parents should not be afraid to send their children to school."As during his first term, there is an increased fear of raids by ICE officials at schools and child care centers as President-elect Donald Trump is threatening to deport millions of undocumented immigrants across the United States. President-elect Trump has also threatened to eliminate the U.S. Department of Education. According to the California State Superintendent of Public Instruction's office, this closure would risk around $8 billion in federal funds for California programs serving students with disabilities and low-income students.Assemblymember Al Muratsuchi represents California's 66th Assembly District, which includes El Segundo, Gardena, Hermosa Beach, Lomita, Los Angeles, Manhattan Beach, Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, Rolling Hills, Rolling Hills Estates, San Pedro and Torrance. Muratsuchi is Chair of the Assembly Education Committee, Chair of the Assembly Select Committee on Aerospace, and a member of the Committees on Budget, Budget Subcommittee on Education, Higher Education, Natural Resources, and the Joint Legislative Committee on Climate Change Policies.

He invites us to begin the journey toward holiness not with striving, but by recognizing our powerlessness, listening for the Spirit's quiet invitations, and taking one small step at a time.Key Scripture Passage: Philippians 1v1This podcast and its episodes are paid for by The Circle, our community of monthly givers.

Dear Ellen,A few weeks ago, I met a great looking guy with an amazing personality! Icing on the cake?  He has Dodger season tickets!!!We were introduced at a restaurant by a work friend of mine who knows him from his kickball league...and our chemistry was instant and undeniable.When he invited me to the ring ceremony game Friday I couldn't say no - both to the game and to his big brown eyes-think Pedro Pascal mixed with Ryan Gosling.Anyway, what started as nervous flirting at the stadium turned electric as the night went on.We had beers and laughs and shared hi 5's-I feel like I've known him forever!By the end of the night...we made out on the street and lets just say I got to see his apartment's morning view. In the morning as we said goodbye he casually mentioned, "We gotta get another game soon" and he suggested late April - which feels like forever away. That's when THIS thought hit me:What is happening with those premium seats between now and then?Am I just another woman in his Dodgers dating lineup. Is he working through his season tickets with different women? The thought of it makes my stomach turn.Am I overthinking this?Gina from Torrance

Right here, squaring off, from opposite sides of the Atlantic, we present: Dueling tag-teams of zaniness — wearing fanciful disguises, winking at traditional forms, and tweeting in a birdlike falsetto… Good stuff!BEDAZZLEDThe Faustian satire Bedazzled, created by genius comedian Peter Cook (who plays the Devil trying to bargain for souls), makes good use of the talents of his Chaplin-esque comedy partner, Dudley Moore (who you might remember from the hit films Ten and Arthur), who plays the shlumpy Wimpy Burger cook, Stanley, willing to bargain away his mortal soul for love. The team first worked together in the early 60s smash stage revue BEYOND THE FRINGE, then coalesced on the BBC as Pete and Dud, (and, later, even more darlingly in the scatalogical bootleg recordings of Derek and Clive). In 1966, with Bedazzled they were on the rise commercially, and Moore, an Oxford trained classical and jazz pianist, wrote all the music for the film.  In this cut, entitled Leaping Nuns chorus, the sisters of the Order of Saint Beryl (including Stanley in full habit) show their devotion to the Saint by jumping on trampolines. JAN AND DEAN MEET BATMANAlso in ‘66, laboring secretly on a similar track, energized by the same Goon Show type inspiration, Jan Berry and Dean Torrance were working to expand, (but not abandon) their surf sound by adding a storyline and special effects, and creating some nutty theater of the mind. Who knows where this might have led, if Jan's tragic car collision a few week's after the record's release, (resulting in his massive head injuries), hadn't sidelined the team's ambitions? Perhaps a blockbuster TV series…?There was always a comic element to the Jan and Dean performance style. (Check out the classic Rock concert film Tami Show, which they hosted). They may have looked like copper toned surf hunks, but maybe there was some Abbott and Costello lurking beneath the Golden Boy surface.

FORTY FACETS OF THE ASCENSION: Kickstarter is LIVE! Right now! Hop on over and back Sarah's new book! In the meanwhile, Dad and I continue our discussion of the Ascension of Jesus in the New Testament: how John's entire Gospel is a cosmic parabola of descent and ascent, with a twist; why the Ascension is the crux of the matter for Hebrews's Day of Atonement interpretation of Jesus' sacrifice; and the apostle Paul's apocalyptic orientation to the ascended Lord. From there we look at the presence, not absence of the ascended Jesus in our midst: in the preached word, in the Lord's Supper, and in the very bodies of his baptized believers. Notes: 1. Hey, did I mention my Kickstarter is running right now for Forty Facets of the Ascension?? 2. Torrance, Space, Time, and Resurrection 3. Barfield, Poetic Diction and Saving the Appearances 4.

John 1:14-18,14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. 15 (John bore witness about him, and cried out, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me ranks before me, because he was before me.'”) 16 For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. 17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father's side, he has made him known. “The Word became flesh” — the Word that was in the beginning, the Word that was with God, the Word that was God, the Word through whom all things were made — that Word became flesh. God became a man. Eternal God in skin and bones. And he dwelt among us. Which means he was here, on this earth, rubbing shoulders with people like you and me, and John says, “we have seen his glory.”John is talking about himself and his friends. He's talking about the historical eye-witnesses of Jesus — these are the people who literally saw Jesus when he was here — They saw his nose; they saw his teeth when he smiled; they heard his voice; they touched his body — John and his friends, people like us — they saw Jesus in person.But John doesn't just say here that they saw Jesus, he says they saw his glory. Now the word “glory” is one we use a lot, and remember the glory of something is its weight and wonder. It's the beauty or the radiance of a thing. And John says he saw that of Jesus. John saw the glory of Jesus. That's why he is writing this book! We're reading the account of someone who saw the glory of Jesus — and so the question is: Do you wanna see it?Does anybody here want to see the glory of Jesus?Because that's what John is gonna show us ... he wants to show us what he saw.And I'll be straight with you, if you read the words in verse 14 — “we have seen his glory” — and they mean nothing to you, that's a problem … You either care (or come to care) about his glory or the Gospel of John (and Christianity as a whole) will make no sense to you. So I think this is something we gotta talk about. The plan today is pretty simple: God willing, I just want to answer two questions:What do you most need to see?How do you see it?Father, by your Spirit, we pray: speak to us your Son, amen.1. What do you most need to see?Well, what do you think the answer is? When it comes to your life right now, what do you think you most need to see?There's no doubt that when John writes verse 14, he's thinking about a story from the Old Testament. Any of the first readers who knew the Hebrew Bible, would have made the connection right away — and we can make the connection too. Because that word there for “dwelt” is actually the word used for “tabernacle” in the Greek Old Testament. John is saying literally that the Word, God, became a man, and “tabernacled” among us. He “set up his tent” among us.This by itself reminds us of the Book of Exodus, where we read that in the Old Covenant the tabernacle was the place where God's presence dwelt with his people. But then there's more — The word “glory” in verse 14 — that John “saw his glory” — that also alludes back to the same time in the Book of Exodus, and it reminds us of Moses's prayer in Exodus 33. This is one of the most important moments in the whole Old Testament — we gotta turn back there. Everyone, if you can, go to Exodus Chapter 33. Hold your spot in John 1, go back to Exodus 33. The Exodus 33 ConversationFor context, the chapter right before 33, Exodus 32, is one of the lowest moments in Israel's history. While Moses was up on Mount Sinai receiving the law, the people were rebelling against God and worshiping a golden calf. And God told Moses about it while he was on the mountain, and God said he's done. The people are stiff-necked — they're hard-hearted — and God says: I'm just going to wipe them all out and make a great nation out of you, Moses. But Moses intercedes for the people. He goes back and forth with God, begging God not to destroy the people. And God relents. God sends judgment but he doesn't wipe ‘em all out, and he tells Moses and the people to leave Sinai and go to the Promised Land — but here's the thing: God says I'm not going with you. You're such a sinful people that if I were near you, I'd consume you. And Exodus 33:4 says this was a “disastrous word.” The people are sinful, but they're not completely stupid — they know that without God being with them they're cooked, so they mourn. And Moses goes back to talk with God. And you can read this whole dialogue in Exodus 33, verses 12–23, and we are supposed to read it like a dialogue. Moses talked with God like a man talks with his friend (verse 11). So we're supposed to hear this as a conversation:Moses says, God, I'm in a mess. You've told me to lead these people but you've not told me who's gonna help me. You just said you're not coming with me. But you've also said that you know me and I have favor with you. So, I'm stuck here. Help me. And God says: Okay, Moses, my presence will go with you.And Moses says: That's the only way I can go! You going with us is what makes all the difference.God says: I'll be there, because you have found favor with me and I do know you.Then Moses says, “Please show me your glory.” And I want everybody to see this. Look at Chapter 33, verse 18,“Please show me your glory.”Just five words in English.The Crisis We're InBut I want you to see that this simple prayer has a profound context — and the context is not comfort but chaos. Moses is not having a great day and then he wants a little glory like it's a cherry on top. This is not a Bible-verse-on-a-coffee-mug kind of moment. But Moses wants to see God's glory like his life depends on it — and not just his life, but the life of an entire nation depends on it; and it's not even just about the nation, but this is about God's reputation in the world. Moses is desperate here. He's in an absolute crisis. That's why he prays the way he does. So get this: how you understand your condition will determine what you think you most need. That makes sense, right? Your assessment of ‘how you're doing' will shape what you think you most need to see.And this is where too often it goes sideways for us, because too often we get this assessment wrong. I was at the gym the other day, and like most gyms, there's TVs mounted up on the wall — four of them in a row. There's a bunch of treadmills in front of them, I guess in case people wanna watch TV while they're walking. And on these TVs, in this moment I was looking … The first screen was a daytime talkshow with some has-been celebrityThe second screen was a news story about how they're now saying coffee is good for youThe third screen was a news story about how outdoor activities extend your biological clockThe fourth screen was a pharmaceutical commercial — which are all the same, somebody riding a bicycle and smiling …And everybody, like hamsters, walking and watching, and what's the message there? Well, what's being sold there is going to conform to what most people consider to be their biggest need — and in a word, it's improvement. That's how a lot of people understand their condition: “I need to improve.” So we look to the influencers and we listen to hours of podcasts and we keep buying the stuff — just to make ourselves a little bit better, to make things a little bit easier, to make our lives a little bit more comfortable. And look, there's nothing inherently wrong with wanting to improve, but what if I told you our condition is a lot worse than the need for improvement? What if I told you that we're actually in a crisis, all of us — and it's a crisis not unlike the one Moses was in. We Need GodSee, Moses knew that without God, it's over. Over! Moses cannot do life without God … and we can't either. We can't.Now we live in a world that sells us the lie everyday, on every screen, that we can! We're told to think that everything we need can be found here — from ourselves, by ourselves, for ourselves. But that's not true. We need God. You need God. And the crisis is: Where is he?You ever felt that crisis before? You need someone whom you have never seen, someone you cannot find. The evidences of God are all around us, but he's invisible. How do you know that when you pray you're not just talking to air? Because sometimes it can feel like you're talking to air. This is one of the reasons we have a world full of fillers, substitutes, idols. “We don't know where he is.”Moses knew he needed God (he knew God is real) — but he still needed the assurance from God that God would meet his need for him. Moses is saying: I need you! How do I know I have you? That's why he prayed: Please show me your glory. Show me your weight and wonder. I need to see who you are. I need to see your glory. That is what we most need to see too. Whatever it is you've got going on — whatever pain you're walking in, whatever uncertainty you're navigating, whatever oblivion you're scrolling through — what you think you most need to see might be wrong. Because what we all most need to see is the glory of God. We need God, and we need to know what he is like. That's the answer to question 1, What do we most need to see? Question 2 …2. How do we see it?“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.”Look at those words at the end of verse 14: “full of grace and truth.” Grace and truth.This again sends us back to Exodus 33, to see how God answered Moses's prayer. After Moses says, Please show me your glory, God says, Exodus 33:19, “I will make all my goodness pass before you and will proclaim before you my name ‘The Lord.' …So Moses is about to see God, except God tells him: You can't see my face. It's too radiant. But go here, in the cleft of the rock, in this little ditch I have for you, and wait for me there. I'll pass by and let you see a little bit.So Moses does that. And Exodus 33:5 says, 5 The Lord descended in the cloud and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord.This is God telling Moses his glory. Verse 6: 6 The Lord passed before him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness” …And those words “abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness” could be translated “full of grace and truth.”Moses, that's my glory, God says. I'm kind and merciful, and I always do what I say. I'm faithful. I am the God full of grace and truth. I'm telling you who I am …That's in the old covenant. But then, in the new covenant, when the Word became flesh — God himself in skin and bones, God the Son sent from God the Father — then God was showing us his glory. John saw it. He saw the glory of Jesus, full of grace and truth. Look at Jesus ChristAll of the steadfast love of God, all of his faithfulness, all of his mercy and righteousness, his grace and truth — who God is for us — was manifest in Jesus. Verse 18 tells us that the God who cannot be seen was seen in Jesus. Jesus has made God known.Look, you need God, but where is he? You need to see his glory. You need to know what he is like, but how? How do you see the glory of God?You need God—where can he be?You need his glory for eyes to see.You long to know what he is like: simply look at Jesus Christ.All of who God is for us is made known in Jesus, and all of who Jesus is makes God known. To see Jesus is to see God. And John has seen him. He wants to show us. So we're for this. Our greatest need is met in Jesus.Is He Really?My favorite theological book on the incarnation is by a Scottish theologian named T. F. Torrance. Torrance served as a chaplain for the British army in World War II (Alister McGrath, his biographer, tells this story; Glen Scrivener does too). Torrance had a powerful experience on the battlefield that changed his life. Torrance had received great theological training, his doctrinal ducks were in a row, and for most of his time as a chaplain, he could keep studying. He brought books with him everywhere he went. But there was one incident, October 17, 1944 — Torrance wrote about … His battalion was in Italy, and the Nazi army had strong defenses in this one city in the mountains, so the Allied Forces decided to launch a night attack. Torrance, as a chaplain, had to carry a stretcher to go and find the wounded, and he was under fire most of the night, and then at dawn, just as the sun started to rise, he came across a young man, 19 years old, who had been shot during the night and was bleeding out. Torrance knew he was minutes away from death. He recounts this moment. He writes: As I knelt down and bent over him, he [looked at me and] said: “Padre, is God really like Jesus Christ?”Isn't that an amazing question? The dying solider understood the crisis. He knew what he most needed to see. Is God really like Jesus?And Torrance said, “The only God there is, is the God who has come to us in Jesus. He has shown his face to us and poured out his love for us as our Savior.”Do you believe that this morning?Christian, do you know that's true?Maybe you would say, Yeah, I know that. I've looked to Jesus. I'm saved. But now I've got other things. I've got bills … broken relationships … besetting sins — boredom. But see, this is where I want to say: looking to Jesus is not a one-time thing. We don't just look to Jesus once and then its crisis averted. But we look and keep looking, because the real crisis behind every trial we walk through for the rest of our lives is to know and remember what God is like. That's the question you're asking in your pain, your confusion, your apathy — “God, what are you really like?”Look to Jesus. Look to Jesus. Look to Jesus. This is why we want to be a church that remembers the realness of Jesus in all of life.My prayer this year is that we see Jesus afresh through the Gospel of John. I want us to refocus everything about our lives on him — I want us to see him and know him and love him more than anything else.That's what brings us to the Table. The TableOne of the things that will be clear in the Gospel of John is where we see the glory of Jesus most vividly. If Jesus makes known the grace and truth of God, is there a highest point of that revelation? Yes, it's the cross. We see the glory of Jesus clearest when he is glorified, and Jesus being glorified in the Gospel of John is when he was lifted up on the cross. The glory of God made known in Jesus Christ is seen supremely in his death and resurrection — a God who stoops and serves and suffers for those he loves. Bleeding, arms stretched wide in sacrifice for us — that is our God. And that's what we remember at this Table.The bread and cup represent the broken body and shed blood of Jesus, and so today, when we hold the bread and cup, think Glory! This is what God is like. This is what grace and truth means. And that's why this Table is just for Christians. If you're here this morning and you're not a Christian, I'm glad you're with us, and I'd love to talk with you and I would not embarrass you for anything in the world. I know what it's like to be where you are, so after the service, I'm gonna stand right here and just be available. Come talk to me.Now, if you trust in Jesus, if you've seen his glory and you believe in him, let's eat and drink together.

Shoot us a Text.As all the announcements from CES roll in, we've got Steve Greenfield back again to break it all down. We cover the details of Sony Honda Mobility's Afeela, plus talk about how Uber and Lyft are moving towards autonomy and how 25% of cars sold in 2025 will be EV.News out of CES yesterday: Sony Honda Mobility is the latest brand to bypass dealership networks to sell its first electric sedan. The Afeela 1 will be sold exclusively online, allowing customers to handle everything from reservations to purchases through the brand's website.The EV, priced at $89,000 for the Origin trim and $102,900 for the Signature trim, includes cutting-edge features like 40 sensors, AI integration, and Qualcomm's advanced semiconductor tech.California will be the launch market, with reservations open now. Afeela Studios in Torrance and Fremont will offer test drives and serve as delivery hubs, providing Northern and Southern California customers a physical interaction point.The vehicles will be assembled at a Honda factory in Ohio, leveraging Honda's established manufacturing expertise.Owners can get service through Crash Champions, a nationwide network of collision repair centers, ensuring comprehensive support across 650 locations in 38 states.Uber and Lyft are embracing the driverless future by adapting their platforms and infrastructure to integrate autonomous vehicles from companies like Waymo and May Mobility.Uber and Lyft apps will include some rider controls for driverless taxis, including adjusting car temperature, honking horns, and opening trunks remotely.Both companies are converting locations into depots equipped with chargers, high-speed internet, and facilities to maintain lidar, cameras, and other tech critical for autonomous vehicles.Uber will offer Waymo rides in Austin and Atlanta, while Lyft plans to deploy May Mobility's autonomous taxis in Atlanta. Both aim to capitalize on partnerships with established robotaxi providers.Riders are warming up to driverless taxis, with Waymo seeing rapid adoption in San Francisco. Lyft CEO David Risher says these vehicles are expanding the ride-hailing market by attracting curious users.The year 2025 is set to mark a turning point for electric vehicles, as they transition from niche products to mainstream choices, driven by improving affordability, expanded options, and growing consumer adoption.One in four vehicles sold in 2025 is projected to be electrified, with pure EVs making up 10% of new car sales, an increase from 7.5% in 2024.Fifteen new EV models will launch this year, offering a wide range of options.Declining auto loan rates, better credit availability, and manufacturer incentives are expected to boost EV affordability, empowering more buyers.Sales of used EVs are forecast to hit 20.1 million units, the highest since 2021, thanks to advancements in battery technology that improve range and reliability.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

In this episode of the Modern Man Podcast, Ted Phaeton speaks with Modd Torrance, founder of Active Dad, about the importance of community and support among fathers. They discuss the challenges and joys of fatherhood, the significance of fitness, and the need for vulnerability in male relationships. Modd shares his journey of creating a space for dads to connect, learn, and grow together, emphasizing the impact of shared experiences and the importance of affirming one another in their roles as fathers.   Takeaways Active Dad was founded to create a community for fathers. Fatherhood lacks support systems compared to motherhood. Building relationships with other dads is crucial. Fitness provides clarity and mental health benefits. New fathers should give themselves grace and adjust their plans. Involving kids in fitness promotes active lifestyles. Community helps fathers feel less isolated. Vulnerability is key to forming strong male bonds. Life is too short; pursue your purpose. Affirmation among fathers can significantly impact their confidence.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Active Fatherhood 02:29 The Birth of Active Dad 05:02 Impact of Active Dad on Fatherhood 07:29 Building Community Among Dads 10:00 The Importance of Vulnerability 12:43 Fitness as a Foundation for Fatherhood 15:54 Advice for New Fathers 18:11 Encouraging Active Lifestyles for Kids 22:18 Surprising Revelations in Fatherhood 26:31 Living a Purposeful Life 39:03 Connecting with the Active Dad Community 40:30 Lessons from Loss and Life's Impermanence   Modd's Links:  Website: www.theactivedad.com  Instagram: _activedad  LinkTree: Rleetorrance  Merch: https://the-active-dad-brand.myshopify.com/   Free eBook Here: Mastering Self-Development: Strategies of the New Masculine: https://rebrand.ly/m2ebook   ⚔️JOIN THE NOBLE KNIGHTS MASTERMIND⚔️ https://themodernmanpodcast.com/thenobleknights

This week, in Lomita, California, a couple runs their own restaurant, and seems to be doing well, until the wife leaves in a drunken rage.

This episode of The Rise of Bonhoeffer explores Dietrich Bonhoeffer's experiences after returning to Germany. Transformed by his time in New York City, he visits the theologian who first awakened the conscience of the German church to the rising totalitarian idolatry - Karl Barth. The episode tracks his burgeoning role in the German church struggle from his initial involvement in the ecumenical movement, his time as a youth minister to the working class of Berlin, and his entrance into the academic classroom. After Hitler is sworn in as Chancellor and the rapid Nazification of Germany begins, Bonhoeffer comes to see the deep discipleship needed to resist the spreading German Christian Faith Movement. As Germany falls deeper into chaos, Bonhoeffer navigates the shifting political landscape, establishing international connections that later prove crucial during his resistance against the Nazi regime.

To the families of St. James Catholic School in Torrance, California, Sister Mary Margaret Kreuper and Sister Lana Chang were the picture of morality and religious devotion. The two lifelong educators were known at St. James as stern disciplinarians, who instilled their students with Christian values that were disappearing from society. But the nuns had a secret addiction, an addition that would rip apart the small Christian community.
