The Philadelphia Eagles found a way to escape Tampa Bay with a nail-biting win, but it was ugly, specifically on the offensive side of the ball. In this week's episode of Eagles Talk, we break down the stunning first-half dominance vs. the shocking second-half struggles. Can the run blocking improve at all this season? Will Jalen Hurts and the offense find any consistency?

It was a tale of two halves at Children's Mercy Park on Saturday Night as Sporting Kansas City came out fairly flat in the first half of their game against New England.  Showing very little of the defensive organization that kept San Diego at bay the weekend prior.  New England repeatedly exposed space on SKC's right flank and scored two goals in the first half.  Thankfully the response was incoming as interim coach Kerry Zavagnin made 3 changes at halftime that immediately breathed life into the squad and they scored 3 goals in a matter of 16 minutes to take the lead in the 2nd half.Unfortunately they were unable to hold that lead for the rest of the game as Robert Voloder went down with a broken collarbone, and his replacement was unable to handle the transition speed of Luis Diaz as he repeatedly got free along SKC's left flank and served several dangerous balls in until Maxi Urruti finally got the equalizer.  Sporting KC did push for a game winner late, but were unable to get it in the net and had to come away with a 3-3 draw on what was obviously an emotionally draining night for several of the players coming off the news of Gadi Kinda's passing earlier in the week.That Zavagnin was able to make these impactful changes was certainly welcome, but it also has led to questions as to why they were necessary in the first place, and how effectively Zavagnin is setting up this team for success, or whether the players he's been given to try to achieve it are of the quality necessary for this team to continue to progress.Finally we will cover St Louis continuing to be messy, the Current continuing to roll even with an expanding injury list, and everyone's favorite topic, USMNT roster discourse before getting to a preview of the match in Houston this weekend.

Description: Today, Jen and Amy sit down with a treasured friend of the show, Franciscan priest and truth-teller, Father Richard Rohr. Father Rohr has been a genuine hero of the faith who has guided us through much uncertainty over the years. Sometimes, we turn to him for mystic insights into lighter things like our Enneagram types and relationships. But today, we turned to him for help processing the anger, grief, and dismay we feel living in America right now. And he met the moment, as he always does. With gentle grace, Father Rohr guides us through our toughest questions, like: How do we live compassionately in a time of violence and despair? And what can we do with our private disappointments and the anger we feel in such an unjust world? What can we do? Non-violent resistance is our chief responsibility right now. Like John Lewis said, these times call for some “good trouble”. Join the marches, call and write our elected leaders, and mobilize strategically for upcoming elections. We have several democratic tools at our disposal. Where can we look for inspiration? Father Rohr talks to us about his latest project, The Tears of Things, which recounts the timeless wisdom of the Hebrew prophets and notes “If we can understand the prophets so poorly, if at all, no wonder we have not understood Jesus.”  What's one thing we can do to live prophetically in these chaotic times? And Father Rohr tells us what is giving him hope today. You'll find it contagious. Thought-provoking Quotes: You know that the book of Lamentations was included in the Bible and it's very telling that it's not lamenting any single war or single death. It's about universal sadness, giving us permission for a universal lament for the tragic sense of life.” -  Fr. Richard Rohr “We have to dig deep for hope. There isn't a logical basis for it today. But I do find it in nature.” – Fr. Richard Rohr “Tears put us in touch with the soul and that's their great gift.” – Fr. Richard Rohr “Trust the excluded ones. Trust the little people. Jesus told us that. They will be much closer to the inside of the gospel than anybody who's easily holding power or position. Look for the fruits of the spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, and self-control. You won't as readily find that in billionaires as you will in the little people.” – Fr. Richard Rohr “You're ping ponging back and forth between rage and lament. And it's hard to find your center. And then the next day it's something different. It is a daily onslaught right now. It's so overwhelming.” – Amy Hardin Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Everything Belongs: The Gift of Contemplative Prayer by Fr.

The healing of the blind man in Mark 8:22-26 is the only gradual healing recorded in the gospels. There must be something that the Holy Spirit wants to teach us in this. Certainly, there was no deficiency on Jesus' part or weakness in the miracle power of God. So what was going on? In this message you will learn how environments and company can affect spiritual power – unbelief impedes the supernatural. Also, David spends some time considering that not all healing is instant but a process, and we need to have much faith and submit to God's ways and timing. God's power is the same, but not everyone receives it the same way. This message is available at https://www.preachtheword.com now in MP3 audio format...

In this profound episode, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with renowned Jungian analyst Dr. James Hollis about personal growth, life transitions, and the journey of self-discovery. Dr. Hollis, a distinguished faculty member at the Jung Center of Houston and author of over 20 books, shares deep insights about finding one's authentic path and understanding the messages our psyche sends us.The Journey from Academia to Depth PsychologyDr. Hollis shares his personal story of transformation, beginning with a midlife depression while working as a humanities professor. This crisis led him to retrain as a Jungian analyst in Zurich, Switzerland, ultimately discovering that his true calling lay in helping others explore their psychological depths.Understanding the Soul's JourneyDr. Hollis explains how we often lose touch with our authentic selves in childhood and must work to recover this connection in adulthood. He emphasizes that this recovery isn't self-indulgent but rather essential for both personal growth and our relationships with others.The Two Halves of LifeThe conversation explores how life's first half focuses on adaptation and fitting in, while the second half calls us to deeper questions of meaning and authenticity. Dr. Hollis discusses how this transition often emerges during midlife or significant life changes.On the Soul's Journey:"The soul is intuited in childhood, pushed aside by the adaptive choices of consciousness and recovered in adulthood only when we are willing to open to it."On Childhood's Impact:"Jung said the greatest burden a child must bear is the unlived life of the parent. And what he meant by that was wherever the parent is stuck, the child sooner or later is going to internalize that as a roadmap and either repeat that, which is very common, or spend a lifetime trying to get away from it."On Finding Your Path:"You're not here to live someone else's pattern. That's already taken. You're here to learn yours, find your path."On Self-Understanding:"It's not so much what we do or think or feel or believe or desire. It's what that is in service to inside of us that makes a difference."On Personal Growth:"Something inside of each of us knows what's right for us. How do you access that? How do you pay attention to that?"Dr. Reid on Instagram: @jenreidmd and LinkedInAlso check out Dr. Reid's regular contributions to Psychology Today: Think Like a Shrink.Thanks for reading A Mind of Her Own and listening to The Reflective Mind!

This was a fun and deep and meaningful conversation with my good friend Jennifer McDaniel. Jennifer is a nutritionist and author, and is the founder and director of McDaniel Nutrition Therapy. I first met Jennifer in early 2022 when I was preparing to run the 106 mile UTMB trail race and she was my assigned nutritionist.  In this conversation we explore a trend that we have been noticing in our culture for many people to move away from social media as well as figuring out other avenues to quiet all the technological noise. We have noticed this move in our work with clients, as well as experiencing a personal shift within us. Ultimately, the conversation gets down to the concept of self-worth and how much of it is often built upon notions of one's producitivty and ability to perform tasks. And how it can be difficult to move out of arenas (such as social media, email, hustle culture/work, etc.) when one's self-worth is often maintained by engagement and productivity in those areas.  Below is a list of authors and books and resources mentioned in the podcast.  Jennifer McDaniel Substack  Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times by Katherine May 4000 Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World by Cal Newport Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World by Cal Newport Slow Productivity: The Lost Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout by Cal Newport Just a Thought: A No-Willpower Approach to Overcome Self-Doubt and Make Peace with Your Mind by Amy Johnson In the Name of Jesus: Reflections on Christian Leadership by Henri Nouwen  Falling Upward: A Spirituality for the Two Halves of Life by Richard Rohr

Ascending Through Adversity: Insights from Richard Rohr's 'Falling Upward'

Chapter 1: Summary of Falling Upward"Falling Upward: A Spirituality for the Two Halves of Life" by Richard Rohr explores the spiritual journey through the two distinct phases of life. The book contrasts the first half of life, which is predominantly focused on building identity, success, and security, with the second half of life, characterized by deeper introspection, spiritual growth, and a search for meaning.Rohr posits that many people spend their early years striving to establish their place in the world, often clinging to ego-driven ambitions and societal expectations. However, as they age, they may find themselves encountering failures, suffering, or existential questions that prompt them to reevaluate their beliefs and values. This shift, he argues, is essential for spiritual maturation and can lead to a more profound understanding of oneself and connection to others.Throughout the book, Rohr discusses various themes, including the importance of paradox, the role of suffering in growth, and the necessity of letting go of the need for control. He emphasizes that true wisdom and spirituality often emerge from confronting and embracing life's difficulties, rather than avoiding them.Ultimately, "Falling Upward" encourages readers to view their life's journey as a cyclical process of growth and transformation, urging them to embrace both the heights and depths of their experiences as vital to achieving spiritual fulfillment.Chapter 2: The Theme of Falling Upward"Falling Upward: A Spirituality for the Two Halves of Life" by Richard Rohr explores the spiritual journey of individuals through the two halves of life. Here are key plot points, character development, and thematic ideas: Key Plot Points:1. Introduction to Life's Two Halves:- Rohr introduces the concept that life can be divided into two stages. The first half focuses on building an identity, achieving success, and establishing societal roles, while the second half is about transcendence, inner depth, and spiritual growth.2. The Role of Failure:- The book emphasizes that failure and suffering are essential for personal and spiritual development. Rohr argues that encountering difficulties enables individuals to grow and mature spiritually.3. Importance of Shadows:- Rohr discusses the idea of 'shadow work' — understanding and integrating the darker aspects of oneself, which is crucial for spiritual growth. This theme highlights the psychological and spiritual depth necessary for the journey through the second half of life.4. Mystical Experiences:- The book outlines how mystical experiences can reshape one's understanding of spirituality, emphasizing that true spirituality transcends mere belief systems and doctrines.5. A Call for Authenticity:- Rohr encourages readers to live authentically and courageously, embracing their true selves instead of conforming to societal expectations. Character Development:- While "Falling Upward" does not focus on traditional characters like a novel might, it could be conceptualized as a journey of the reader or a general representation of individuals undergoing growth:- First-Half Characters: Often driven by ego, success, and external validation, these characters embody ambition and the pursuit of goals, reflecting societal norms.- Second-Half Characters: In contrast, individuals in this stage are marked by humility, wisdom, and a quest for deeper spirituality, accepting their flaws and embracing authenticity. Thematic Ideas:1. Spiritual Maturity:- The central theme of the book is that spiritual maturity comes from navigating both success and failure. The second half of life is not merely about aging but about deepening one's spiritual and emotional understanding.2. The Paradox of the Journey:- Rohr...
