In this message, Bolade challenges us to examine the traditions and cultural practices we've inherited, drawing on Jesus' confrontation with the Pharisees in Mark 7:1-22, where he exposes how human traditions can replace God's law and distract us from what truly matters. Through personal stories and examples from church life - cooking for new parents, checking on one another, nurturing marriages and children - Bolade reveals how the best traditions are those rooted in God's word and built on the language of love. As you listen, ask yourself: What traditions am I holding onto that might be contradicting God's law, and am I willing to let the Holy Spirit reshape me so that my life and relationships reflect Jesus' character and reflect his kingdom?

La 31ᵉ édition du festival Rio Loco se poursuit à Toulouse, dans le sud de la France, avec pour thème les imaginaires insulaires. Une thématique conçue sur mesure pour le projet musical, cinématographique et scénique Small Island Big Song. Une œuvre-fleuve qui réunit des dizaines d'artistes venus des océans Pacifique et Indien, autour de leurs traditions musicales et de leurs préoccupations pour la santé des océans et de la planète. Il y a douze ans, la productrice de théâtre taïwanaise BaoBao Chen et le cinéaste australien Tim Cole se rencontraient. Tous les deux préoccupés par les conséquences du dérèglement climatique sur les océans, ils décident de partir ensemble en terres insulaires.  « Pendant trois ans, nous avons rencontré plus d'une centaine d'artistes sur seize îles différentes. Nous sommes partis simplement avec nos micros et quelques caméras. Notre idée était d'enregistrer une chanson sur une île, puis d'emmener cette chanson sur l'île suivante pour qu'un nouvel artiste y ajoute un instrument ou une voix… et ainsi de suite, jusqu'à une autre île pour ajouter encore autre chose. Tellement de collaborations ont vu le jour », se réjouit BaoBao Chen.  La nature au centre Nouvelle-Zélande, Indonésie, Papouasie-Nouvelle-Guinée, île de Pâques, îles Salomon, Hawaï, Tahiti, Malaisie… Les îles se suivent et ne se ressemblent pas. Chacun des artistes transmet ses traditions musicales lors d'enregistrements en extérieur.  « Une des compositrices sur ce projet, c'est la nature. Nous voulions lui donner une voix. Partout où nous allions, nous demandions aux artistes de nous emmener dans un lieu qui leur était cher. Nous avons donc enregistré des volcans, des mangroves, des plages… Une multitude de sons que nous avons intégrés au spectacle », explique BaoBao Chen.  Traditions entrecroisées d'île en île Small Island Big Song met en valeur tous les liens linguistiques et culturels qu'il existe entre les îles, notamment grâce aux migrations austronésiennes. Le chanteur et musicien malgache Sammy est l'un des piliers du projet : « Dans ma tribu, il y a une danse qui vient de Taiwan, elle est pratiquée à Madagascar mais avec quelque chose qui change. Cette danse s'appelle la danse des ancêtres. Quand j'ai vu cela à Madagascar, j'ai regardé comment les gens dansaient. Et quand j'étais à Taïwan, j'ai vu qu'il y avait vraiment une connexion entre les pays, une vraie histoire », sourit-il. Comme lui, tous les autres artistes ont fait le choix de préserver l'identité culturelle de leur peuple, en chantant dans leur langue et en jouant des instruments de leur terre. Comme des gardiens de la nature, témoins de leur héritage maritime ancestral.

In a world marked by war, economic uncertainty, rising inflation, and ongoing debates over migration and national identity, many are searching for clarity and truth. At the same time, cultural shifts are increasingly shaping modern Christianity—raising important questions about authority, tradition, and faithfulness to Scripture.In this thought-provoking episode, we examine the tension between contemporary church practices and biblical foundations. What happens when tradition begins to drift from God's Word? Drawing from Jesus' rebuke of the Pharisees—who elevated human traditions above divine commands—we explore the necessity of testing all beliefs and practices against Scripture.Rooted in passages like II Thessalonians 2:15, this episode emphasizes the importance of holding fast to the traditions handed down by the Apostles—teachings grounded in God's inspired, inerrant, and infallible Word. Rather than discarding tradition altogether, we ask: which traditions truly align with Scripture, and which need to be reconsidered?Join us as we call believers to return to biblical truth, to measure every doctrine and practice by God's Word, and to live lives shaped by the holy standard set forth in Scripture. In uncertain times, the foundation remains unchanging—God's truth endures.The Voice in the Wilderness does not endorse any link or other material found at buzzsprout.More at https://www.thevoiceinthewilderness.org/

Imagine the tropical grooves of Colombia and Mexico in an avant-garde setting. That's the ethos of Ruido Tovar; the new collaborative project between Eblis Alvarez of Meridian Brothers and Camilo Lara of the Mexican Institute of Sound.  Before releasing their debut self-titled record together, both Alvarez and Lara were known to experiment with electronics, fusing modern sounds with music styles that are typically considered traditional. Alvarez put a spin on cumbia and salsa with his band Meridian Brothers, while Lara pushed the electronica movement in Mexico forward with his project, the Mexican Institute of Sound.  Coming together as Ruido Tovar, the duo joins the Soundcheck host, John Schaefer, with their pocket-sized effects pedals and compact synthesizers to perform some new songs from their new record and discuss their journey in music thus far.  (- Sırma Munyar) Setlist: 1.

In this After Hours episode, Sam hangs out with Buddy and Cole for a completely unfiltered conversation that somehow covers everything from wisdom teeth removals and past surgeries to hunting, sports, hobbies, and trying to hit your daily protein goals. The guys also debate Christian red flags, rank bands against bands, discuss the worst Christian traditions they've experienced, and chase plenty of random rabbit trails along the way. It's the kind of conversation you'd have sitting around after an event with friends—part serious, part ridiculous, and all over the place in the best way possible.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Bill, whose article appears in the June 2026 issue of Grapevine, tells Olis and Don that he had to learn to do what AA asks you to do. In the beginning he did not get the ideas of alcoholism as an allergy, or the phenomenon of craving, but his sponsor helped him understand these things about himself. He came in thinking his life was over, but now thinks of sober times when his face hurt from smiling and laughing so much. Leslie shares about the benefits of Grapevine.

The Embrace is supposed to be sacred. So why do so many vampires treat it like an afterthought?Tonight we're diving into one of the oldest and most controversial Traditions of the Camarilla: Progeny. Who has the right to create another vampire? Why does the Prince claim ownership over your bloodline? And is this Tradition really about protecting the Masquerade—or protecting the power of elders?We'll explore sires who create childer for love, ambition, loneliness, politics, and pure selfishness. We'll talk about abandoned neonates, failed Embraces, bloodline responsibility, and what happens when a vampire decides they don't need permission to become a parent.Because every vampire remembers their sire.And some spend eternity trying to forgive them.Support the showhttps://linktr.ee/25YearsOfVtM

This lecture discusses the William Clifford's 1877 essay "The Ethics Of Belief", in which he makes and argued for the central claim "it is wrong always, everywhere, and for any one, to believe anything upon insufficient evidence." It focuses on portion of part 2 of the essay that is devoted to Clifford's analysis of tradition. He distinguishes between particular traditions, developing within a specific group, culture, or civilization and the "tradition of the human race". He also makes an important distinction with the latter, arguing that any "tradition" that closes off inquiry does not actually serve humanity, and that a robust, useful tradition would actually lead to framing questions and promoting inquiry.

There are many Indigenous people in this country working on food sovereignty. The best known member of this movement is Chef Sean Sherman, founder and CEO of The Sioux Chef, which specializes in pre-colonization cuisine. Host Charity Nebbe talks with Sherman about his latest co-authored book, 'Turtle Island: Foods and Traditions of the Indigenous Peoples of North America,' and he will be speaking at the inaugural Iowa Culinary Conference on June 22 in Coralville. Also, the 50th Loess Hills Prairie Seminar takes place May 29-31, hosted by Monona County Conservation. This free event started in 1977 as a modest, back to nature event for local educators, and has now expanded to include dozens of activities for conservationists, families and beyond.

In this episode, Fred from the Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube Channel speaks by phone with Patquah, an Inupiaq man originally from Utqiagvik who has spent years living in the Noatak River Valley.Their conversation explores subsistence living in Arctic Alaska, the nomadic history of the Inupiaq people, and the oral traditions passed down through generations to help hunters, travelers, and families understand the dangers of the land.Patquah shares accounts of strange lights, unexplained wilderness phenomena, and traditional warnings about “little people” said to inhabit remote areas of Alaska.These stories include descriptions of foot-tall mountain beings with red eyes and unusual strength, as well as child-sized figures wearing pointed hoods. Rather than framing these traditions as simple folklore or superstition, Patquah explains how elders used these stories as practical survival knowledge, teaching younger generations to respect the land, pay attention to signs, and avoid becoming careless in dangerous country.The conversation then turns to a recent and unsettling experience from April 21, 2026, during a snowmachine hunting trip near the Noatak–Kivalina trail in Northwest Alaska.While traveling through the area, Patquah heard a powerful, echoing scream that seemed to carry across the landscape and left him with the strong feeling that he was being watched. The following day, as weather conditions worsened and he and two companions briefly became disoriented, they spotted a large, dark, hairy figure sitting on a ridge. After viewing it through binoculars, the group chose to leave the area rather than approach.Patquah later learned that relatives and other hunters had reported similar screams and sightings in the region, adding another layer to an already compelling account.This episode blends Inupiaq oral tradition, Alaska Native cultural history, remote wilderness survival, and a modern hairy man encounter from the Mulgrave Hills and Noatak River Valley region.Click the link below to visit Fred's Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube Channel for more incredible encounter stories, traditional accounts, and unexplained experiences from the wilds of Alaska.Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube ChannelEmail BrianGet Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

What happened to the Apostles after the events of Acts? Traditions regarding them are preserved in apocryphal texts from the early Church, but how are we to understand them?

What happens when you raise boys with earth-based traditions, rites of passage, and the wilderness as their classroom? Tim Corcoran has spent 25 years answering that question. He's the founder of Twin Eagles Wilderness School in North Idaho, a rites of passage guide, wilderness mentor, and father of two sons.
