Podcasts about Troubled Times

Years ago a major art gallery sponsored a competition for painters. They were offering prizes for the best painting on the subject of "Peace." As the attenders browsed through the entries, most had decided that one certain painting was almost sure to win. It portrayed this lush green pasture under a vivid blue sky, with the cows grazing lazily and a little boy walking through the grass with his fishing pole over his shoulder. It really made you feel all peaceful. But it came in second. The painting that won was a big surprise. The scene was the ocean in a violent storm. The sky was ominous, the lightning was cutting across the sky, and the waves were crashing into the rock walls of the cliffs by the shore. No peace. But you had to look twice to understand what was going on. There, about halfway up the cliff was a birds' nest, tucked into a tiny hollow in the rock. A mother bird was sitting on that nest with her little babies, tucked underneath her, sleeping soundly. That was peace! I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Peace in the Midst of the Storm." Now, that was the title of the prize-winning painting - and rightly so, because peace is not just the absence of a storm. It's peace in the middle of the storm. The kind of peace many of us could use right now; the kind of peace maybe you could have right now if you're resting where you ought to be. As our headlines have become more dominated with new dangers, as so many hearts have been struggling with new anxieties and new fears, I think we're ready for the incredible peace offered in Psalm 46. I call it "Good News for Troubled Times." It's our word for today from the Word of God. Maybe it should be our word for every day right now! "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." So, the more troubled things are, the more present God makes Himself. The psalmist then says, "Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging." Everything's collapsing here - things that have always been there for us. But no fear. Why? "God is our refuge and strength." This psalm continues: "There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where The Most High dwells." Where does God live today? Well, it's in those who belong to Him through faith in Jesus. So this might be about you. "God is within her, and she will not fall...Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall...the Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress." Then as everything seems to be melting down, God says, "Be still, and know that I am God." OK, turn off the news, leave those other voices, and get where you can just be with God. And realize that as long as you're in His hands, there's no such thing as out of control. He is still God and you are still His! And if you have never given yourself to Jesus, the Man who died for you to pay for your sin, I'd say there's never been a better time than this. With so much uncertainty, it's so great to know that you're safe forever in a relationship with Him. I wonder if there's ever been a time when you began your personal relationship with Jesus. Not just have a religion about Jesus or agree with Jesus, but when you've pinned all your hopes on Him as the man who died for your sin and rose from the grave to give you eternal life. If you want that security, if you want that anchor, if you want that forgiveness, that rock to stand on, tell Him that today. Say, "Jesus, I want to belong to You. I'm giving myself to You because You gave yourself for me." I'd love to have you go to our website today because there is help to be sure that you are anchored to Jesus Christ from this day on and forever. It's called ANewStory.com. Would you check it out? When you are nesting in the care of the Lord Jesus Christ, you can rest through any storm, because you belong to the One who can give you peace in the middle of the storm.

8/12/25 - We welcome back Bishop Joseph Strickland to share the spiritual depth and personal conviction behind his powerful reflection, “It Is Well With My Soul.” Amid growing confusion in the world and within the Church, Bishop Strickland speaks with clarity and courage about finding lasting peace in Jesus Christ. He opens up about why he wrote the reflection, the importance of anchoring our souls in the Eucharist and the Sacred Heart, and the challenge of standing firm in truth and love during times of trial. This conversation is a heartfelt encouragement for all Catholics striving to remain faithful in turbulent times. “When the Church seems to crumble around us, Christ remains,” he reminds us. Whether you're discouraged or seeking deeper trust in God, this interview will inspire you to echo the words: It is well with my soul.

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery interviews author and academic James Cairns about his collection of essays, In Crisis, On Crisis: Essays in Troubled Times (Wolsak & Wynn, 2025). In 2022, the Collins Dictionary announced that its word of the year was “permacrisis,” which it defined as “an extended period of instability and insecurity, especially one resulting from a series of catastrophic events.” Have we reached a breaking point, arrived at the moment of truth? If so, what now? If not, why do so many people say we're living through a period of unprecedented crises? Drawing on social research, pop culture and literature, as well as on his experience as an activist, father and teacher, James Cairns explores the ecological crisis, Trump's return to power amid the so-called crisis of democracy, his own struggle with addiction and other moments of truth facing us today. In a series of insightful essays that move deftly between personal, theoretical and historical approaches he considers not only what makes something a crisis, but also how to navigate the effect of these destabilizing times on ourselves, on our families and on the world. James Cairns lives with his family in Paris, Ontario, on territory that the Haldimand Treaty of 1784 recognizes as belonging to the Six Nations of the Grand River in perpetuity. He is a professor in the Department of Indigenous Studies, Law and Social Justice at Wilfrid Laurier University, where his courses and research focus on political theory and social movements. James is a staff writer at the Hamilton Review of Books, and the community relations director for the Paris-based Riverside Reading Series. James has published three books with the University of Toronto Press, most recently, The Myth of the Age of Entitlement: Millennials, Austerity, and Hope (2017), as well as numerous essays in periodicals such as Canadian Notes & Queries, the Montreal Review of Books, Briarpatch, TOPIA, Rethinking Marxism and the Journal of Canadian Studies. James' essay “My Struggle and My Struggle,” originally published in CNQ, appeared in Biblioasis's Best Canadian Essays, 2025 anthology. Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us a text Psalm 4 – A Prayer of Trust in Troubled TimesWith Reverend Ben Cooper | RB Christian RadioIn this deeply personal and spiritually powerful episode of RB Christian Radio, Reverend Ben Cooper takes us into the heart of Psalm 4, a timeless passage that speaks directly to our 21st-century anxieties. If you've ever struggled with sleepless nights, inner restlessness, or overwhelming circumstances, this prayer-centered episode offers profound peace and insight.Psalm 4 is often referred to as an “evening psalm” — a sacred song of surrender when the day has ended and the soul needs reassurance. Reverend Ben explores the rich context and hidden treasures within the words of King David, who penned this psalm while facing personal attack, pressure, and doubt. But through it all, David models a posture of calm trust, setting an example for all believers.You'll discover how Psalm 4 teaches us to respond to stress not with panic, but with prayer. It shows us that even when our situation feels unfair or unjust, we are called to pause, reflect, and turn our hearts toward God. As Reverend Ben explains, this is not just a scripture — it is a personal lifeline.

India és Pakisztán 1947-es szétválását több millió ember szenvedése kísérte végig. A térségből kivonuló Brit Birodalom egy sebtében meghúzott határvonallal kettéosztotta a volt gyarmat területét; az újonnan létrejött országokban pedig elszabadult a káosz. Rengetegen kényszerültek arra, hogy elhagyják otthonaikat, miközben a különböző vallási csoportok közötti ellentétek véres leszámolásokba torkollottak.  Források: Yasmin Khan: The Great Partition című könyv Larry Collins – Dominique Lapierre: Szabadság éjfélkor című könyv John Eledge - Brief History of the World in 47 Borders című könyv Tim Marshall - A földrajz fogságában című könyv John Zubrzycki - Dethroned: The Downfall of India's Princely States Sohini Majumdar - Calcutta Riots of August 1946: Muslim Experiences from the Troubled Times című tanulmány https://affairsmastery.com/mountbatten-plan-1947-background-about-main-points-important-notes/ https://www.telegraphindia.com/world/plan-balkan-that-hit-jawaharlal-nehru-wall/cid/1879834 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YB8IoU46EE .

Message from John Avant on July 13, 2025

(Spirit Rock Meditation Center)

Paul spent 6 years in various prisons and not because he put dodgy mushrooms in someones stew, he just had a point of view that upset the religious leaders of his time.  But he never seemed to let it get him down.  He wrote letters and found ways to be useful.  Hope in times like this is rare and worth exploring.  Somehow a combination of purpose, secure identity and faith created the sort of hope he was able to draw upon.  As Chuck Nolan played by Tom Hanks in the movie Castaway says, you never know what the tide will bring in.    Maybe we can all do the same.  

In a world that often feels divided the concept of tolerance takes on a new meaning. In the latest episode of our podcast, I would like us to explore the idea of practicing tolerance not as a passive act, but as a radical choice that reflects our deepest values. Acknowledging the unprecedented challenges we face today, "Who are we choosing to be in this moment?" Asking ourselves this question encourages us to reflect on our actions and the narratives we create about ourselves during difficult times. Having a legacy mindset shifts our focus from performative activism to meaningful contributions that align with our values. Are you ready to rise and shine?

The reality of impermanence and the inevitable experience of loss is enough in life to give us a wound. On the path of transformation, we need a broken heart that only God—which can be referred to in many ways such as the Divine or the Absolute—can heal. Heartbreak is extreme in the times we are living in. Bittersweet has an in-between quality where we experience different deep feelings at the same time. Caring is needed to work with bittersweetness in an alchemical way. Grief is a spiritual enzyme. A broken heart encompasses the suffering of the world; it can be inspirational and turn us to want to relieve the suffering of others. A broken heart can teach us how to pray and have humility in the face of the awe, wonder, and mystery of creation. We can't understand the Divine, but we can cultivate trust which may start with recognizing that we don't. It's important to stay present to anger and outrage until we get underneath to the sadness that is there, which can allow the transcendent to come into play and for a hallelujah to arise. It's easy to bypass our personal wounds. We may see parts of us as enemies, but we only change by loving all of ourselves, which is not about indulgence. Personal wounds are a way into the objective wound of a broken heart. The Sage is established in universal love and loves us as we are. When we have a clear moment, we can re-affirm our intention to the Universe. When we feel lost, we can do the next right thing. Freely offering gratuitous goodness is a gesture of love. The point of living may be to experience both the human and the transcendent.

Wars and rumors of wars.He said it would happen, so we wouldn't be caught off guard.Fear is loud right now. But so is His truthLet's talk about it!

This message calls Christians to reflect on current global events, particularly the tensions between Israel and Iran, in light of biblical prophecy. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the spiritual dimension behind political conflicts and remaining rooted in God's Word. The sermon highlights how Scripture, including passages from Ezekiel, Matthew, and Ephesians, speaks to the times we live in. Believers are encouraged to pray for peace, seek wisdom, and share the Gospel with urgency and faith. Ultimately, the message reminds us that our true hope lies not in earthly leaders, but in Jesus Christ and His unshakable kingdom. #iran #Israel #MiddleEast #Trump

2025-07-08 | Dharma Talk | Living the Paramitas in Troubled Times | Ellen Hippard by Appamada

In this sermon “Staying Vigilant in Troubled Times” urges believers to remain spiritually alert amid a morally chaotic and deceptive culture that reflects the warnings in 2 Timothy 3. Pastor Willie emphasizes the danger of counterfeit faith and worldly influences—especially through technology—and calls Christians to pursue genuine transformation through God's power, not just religious appearances. Ultimately, the message challenges individuals, especially parents and spiritual leaders, to guard their homes, choose godly influences, and live differently as part of God's called-out people.

In this powerful episode, Roger Morris emphasizes that the upcoming 12 months are a period of harvest and plunder, urging you to look beyond the ordinary blessings and see the double portion God has in store. He speaks about the importance of vision, persistence in your divine assignment, and not settling for less than what God intends for you. Through biblical and personal stories, Roger illustrates the difference between merely harvesting and truly plundering the blessings meant for you. This episode is a call to faith and action, encouraging you to embrace the fullness of God's provision in every aspect of your life.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:   00:00 Introduction: The Year of Harvest and Plunder 00:43 Breaking Free from the Earth Curse System 02:51 The Concept of Jubilee and Double Portion 10:24 The Miracle of Feeding the 5,000 19:49 The Widow's Oil: A Lesson in Faith 24:05 Call to Action: Embrace the Double Portion 27:13 Invitation to Accept Jesus     Connect with Bill & Roger Ministries: www.billandroger.com Email: roger@billandroger.com

What do we do when the world feels like it's unraveling? How to respond when our systems—political, economic, medical—feel brittle, even broken? It's easy to fall into despair, or look away. But maybe what we're being asked to do is look closer. To stay present.In this conversation with Ed Neal and Mel Hopper Koppelman, we explore the edges where medicine, ecology, and culture meet. Both are thinkers who don't shy away from complexity. Ed draws from classical Chinese texts and ecological systems. Mel, from her knowledge of science and systems thinking.Listen into this discussion as we explore the role of Chinese medicine in times of crisis, the importance of narrative and metaphor in clinical work, how despair and possibility coexist, and the invitation to practice medicine as an act of presence and participation.

We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, Canadian Championship, Canadian Premier League, and general football chat. The Whitecaps put in their worst performance of the season, but still came away with a battling point in a scoreless draw down in Austin. We delve into the main talking points coming away from a match that was an off day for many and unfortunately all in the same game. A mere blip or some cause for concern that the brutal schedule is catching up with the 'Caps ahead of their CONCACAF Champions Cup final? That schedule continues apace as the 'Caps kick off their quest for a Canadian Championship fourpeat in Winnipeg. We preview the Valour game and hear from their head coach Phillip Dos Santos. Plus we sit down for a chat with the man whose penalty in last year's Voyageurs Cup final clinched the vital victory that set up this year's historic Champions Cup run, Bjorn Inge Utvik. We chat with Bjorn about that spot kick, the tournament, the cup run, having a fellow Scandinavian as head coach, and life in Vancouver. Plus we round up all the week's action in MLS and the CPL, look at the FIFA Congress coming to Vancouver next year, and music-wise Scottish band Baby Chaos continue their residency as our Album of the Month, we've a Britpop classic from Pulp, and we celebrate Crystal Palace's historic and joy-inducing FA Cup win in Wavelength.
