Romans 8:18-25; Kingdom of God; Kingdom of the World; stuck; unstuck

What makes a young Asian American fly halfway across the world to represent the U.S.? For five youth ambassadors at the 2025 World Expo in Osaka, the answer was more personal than a résumé line.In the premiere of SeroTunein, host Kurien Thomas introduces the people behind this series — first-gen kids of immigrant parents drawn to Japan by family history, language, a career pivot, or simply the desire for a fresh start. Together they begin asking the questions they were rarely asked growing up: about expectations, identity, and belonging between two cultures.In this episode:What a World Expo actually is (think World Cup, minus the sports)Why so many Japanese American ambassadors chose to reconnect with their roots on their own termsThe quiet search for community that shapes the first-gen experienceThis is part one of a three-part series on wellness, culture, and identity.

When someone you love is struggling — not with their heart, but with their mind — do you even have the words? For many raised in cultures where community comes first, emotional pain is something you endure quietly so you don't become a burden.In the series finale of SeroTunein, host Kurien Thomas unpacks the cultural scripts, gendered silences, and unspoken rules about what you're allowed to feel and who you're allowed to tell. Five Asian American young adults get honest about therapy, masculinity, and the inherited habit of keeping two faces.But there's a quieter revelation too: the long car ride, the hike through the woods, the fruit left at your door. None of them is a conversation about feelings — and all of them are how love gets spoken anyway.In this episode:Why Asian Americans are about half as likely to seek mental health servicesThe particular struggle young men face in showing vulnerabilityHow "acts of service" become a language of careWhy the confusion of living between two worlds might be the source of our creativity

For a lot of Asian Americans, well-being was never a conversation — it was a result. Study hard, perform, and if it looked okay on the outside, you were assumed okay on the inside.In this epidose of SeroTunein, host Kurien Thomas sits down with five youth ambassadors from the 2025 World Expo and asks a deceptively simple question: when did you last feel a strong sense of personal well-being? The answers surprised him — less about rest, more about autonomy, being seen, and finally getting in the "driver's seat" of their own lives.In this episode:A final figure skating performance that closed a full circleWhy validation sometimes hits hardest from a total strangerHow running, hiking, and community became lifelines after COVIDThe complicated truth about finding belonging inside your own culturePart two of a three-part series on culture, identity, and mental well-being.

She asked the question no daughter should ever have to ask: did you ever think about me when you were doing this? Rex Heuermann said no. The two worlds never crossed. Victoria Heuermann heard that answer sitting across from her father in a jailhouse room — after he'd just admitted to killing eight women in the house where she grew up — and she forgave him on the spot. This look back sits with both halves of that exchange and everything they reveal.Nobody thinks about the daughter of the serial killer. Victoria said that herself. And the documentary showed what living inside that identity looks like — a young woman cycling between depression and anger, whose sense of self has been shattered, who has questioned whether she should even be here. She said her father was a loving dad and a serial killer. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines whether those two things can coexist as truth, or whether that framework is itself a form of the compartmentalization that allowed Rex to do what he did.Then the documentary went deeper into Rex's own mind. Sessions where he described a four-day cycle refined over years. Disposals timed with a stopwatch. Crime scene photos he reviews in his cell while claiming he can't connect himself to the person who created them. He asked the therapist if she'd ever sat with a serial killer before — not with vulnerability, but with performance. FBI profiler John Douglas compared him to BTK. Scott examines whether Rex is still controlling the narrative even in confession — and whether Victoria's forgiveness is something she arrived at freely, or something he's still shaping from behind bars. We revisit where the case stood at the time of our reporting.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What does it really mean to belong?For Isaac Melber, the answer wasn't found the day he was adopted. It was built through countless small moments of love, consistency, and the freedom to embrace every part of his story.In this episode, Rebecca sits down with author, adoptee, and aspiring pastor Isaac Melber to explore life through the eyes of someone who remembers being adopted. From growing up in a remote village in Ethiopia to navigating identity, grief, anger, faith, and eventually returning to his birth country, Isaac shares a perspective that every hopeful and adoptive parent needs to hear.This conversation is filled with practical wisdom, powerful storytelling, and gentle reminders that adoption isn't about erasing a child's past—it's about helping them carry it with love, honesty, and hope.In this episode, we talk about:The small moments that create a true sense of belonging beyond simply being lovedWhy a child's anger is often directed at their story—not their adoptive parentsHow to talk honestly about loss without defining a child's future by itThe difference between helping a child feel chosen versus making them feel rescuedWhy embracing a child's birth culture should become part of the entire family's cultureWhat returning to Ethiopia taught Isaac about identity, healing, and finding peace without having every answerAbout Isaac:Isaac Melber is an Ethiopian adoptee, author, speaker, and aspiring pastor. Adopted at five years old by a family in Kentucky, Isaac now shares his story to encourage adoptees, adoptive families, and anyone wrestling with identity, loss, and belonging. His debut memoir, Twice Delivered: A Story of Two Families, Two Worlds, and One Redeeming Love, explores how faith, family, and truth shaped his journey across two worlds while offering hope to others walking their own.Connect with Isaac:Website: https://www.isaacmelber.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/isaacmelber/Twice Delivered: A Story of Two Families, Two Worlds, and One Redeeming Love: https://www.amazon.com/Twice-Delivered-Families-Worlds-Redeeming/dp/B0H2HH6785RG Adoption ConsultingRG Adoption ConsultingWebsite → ⁠https://rgadoptionconsulting.com⁠ Book a Complimentary Adoption Strategy Session → ⁠https://rgadoptionconsulting.com/contactAre You Ready to Adopt?

Join at Patreon.com/BlakCastNetwork I didn't know Akala Newman's full story before we sat down to yarn. And I think that's exactly why this conversation hit me the way it did. Akala is a proud Wiradjuri and Gadigal woman from Sydney. A performer, songwriter, educator, and cultural producer who has been creating on her own terms since day one. She opened the Sydney Opera House New Year's Eve fireworks with her song Calling Country and is the founder of Gili Gatherings. But this yarn wasn't about any of that. Not really. It was about duality. About what it costs to move between worlds every single day. About the exhaustion of code-switching, of always being surveilled, of being Black no matter how light-skinned you are or how many spaces you are invited into. It was about her dad, and the sacrifices he made. About the nephews and nieces she wants to look up one day and think, I can do this too. About art as the thing that holds it all together when the cycle of trauma feels impossible to break. Akala Newman is on a rise. And this yarn is just the beginning.

Our Summer in the Cities tour crosses the Atlantic and rolls into Manchester, where rain‑slick streets, brick mills and crowded terraces shape the sound as much as guitars and drum machines. Don and Dude drop the needle on two albums that channel the city's gray skies, sharp wit and restless youth into vivid musical cityscapes.The AlbumsJoy Division – Closer (1980)Joy Division turn late‑70s Manchester's post‑punk tension into a stark, spacious set about isolation, collapse, and trying to find language for feelings that barely fit inside a song. Martin Hannett's cold, echoing production, Ian Curtis's weary baritone, and the band's tight, minimal playing make Closer feel like a haunted, human swan song where every drum hit and bass line sounds both distant and painfully close.The Smiths – Strangeways, Here We Come (1987)The Smiths close out their run with a more layered, studio‑shaped take on Manchester indie rock, folding piano, keyboards, strings, and bigger guitar sounds into their usual mix of wit and melancholy. Morrissey and Johnny Marr push past jangle pop into richer, stranger territory, delivering a final album that feels ambitious and forward‑looking even as the band quietly splinters behind the scenes.Diggin' AlbumsThe Lemon Twigs – Look for Your Mind! (2026)New York brothers Brian and Michael D'Addario serve up bright, tape‑warm power pop and psychedelic rock, full‑band performances and intricate harmonies turning their 60s and 70s obsessions into lively, modern heartbreak and anxiety tunes.Billy Idol – Billy Idol (1982)Sneering vocals, Steve Stevens guitar fireworks, and early‑MTV hooks power this debut, where post‑punk attitude and hard rock riffs collide on tracks like White Wedding to turn a former punk frontman into a mainstream rock fixture.Haircut 100 – Boxing the Compass (2026)Sunny British pop outfit reunite with Nick Heyward and core bandmates for a groove‑centered comeback, bright guitar, bass, and percussion lines reviving their new wave and Brit‑funk feel on fresh, good‑natured tunes built for summer playlists.Midge Ure – A Man of Two Worlds (2026)Ultravox frontman and synth‑pop veteran returns with a double album splitting instrumental soundscapes and vocal songs, weaving his classic electronic sensibility into modern, atmospheric arrangements that show both sides of his writing.Follow & Support Follow the show on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky @albumnerds, and support the podcast by subscribing, rating, reviewing, and sharing it with another music obsessive who still loves hearing whole albums front to back.“Manchester's got everything except a beach.” – Ian Brown

In this week's sermon, the Rev'd Jon Shuler reflects on 1 Peter 2:13-25.

How does the daughter of Chinese immigrants become one of the most influential figures in Hollywood?In this wide-ranging conversation, Bret Bradigan sits down with Academy Award-winning producer and former Academy President Janet Yang to explore an extraordinary life spent building bridges between cultures.Before producing acclaimed films and working alongside Steven Spielberg on Empire of the Sun, Janet helped introduce Chinese-language and Hong Kong cinema to American audiences, opening doors that would reshape Hollywood's understanding of Asian storytelling.Together they discuss her family's journey from China to America, the regional cuisines of Shanghai and Hainan, why food is often the quickest path to understanding another culture, the enduring legacy of China's Cultural Revolution, the rise of Hong Kong cinema, representation in Hollywood, and the changing relationship between East and West through film.They also reflect on leadership, the future of cinema, what brought Janet to Ojai, and why great stories remain our most powerful tool for building understanding across cultures.This is a conversation about movies—but even more, it's a conversation about identity, history, immigration, curiosity, and the enduring power of storytelling.Topics include:• Janet Yang's family history and immigration story• Shanghai and Hainan food and culture• Hong Kong's cinematic golden age• Working with Steven Spielberg on Empire of the Sun• Producing films that changed Hollywood• Serving as President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences• The Cultural Revolution and modern China• Representation and diversity in film• Why Ojai has become homeIf you enjoy thoughtful conversations about culture, history, filmmaking and the people who shape our world, you'll enjoy this episode of Ojai: Talk of the Town.

Jackson TerKeurst is an author, speaker, and adoptee originally from Liberia, West Africa. At seven years old, he was separated from his family during the Liberian civil war and spent years living in an orphanage. At age 15, Jackson came to the United States as part of the African Children's Choir, where his journey eventually led to his adoption by an American family. Despite arriving with limited formal education, he defied the odds and became the first person in his family line to graduate from college. Today, Jackson shares his remarkable story to inspire hope, resilience, and purpose in others. Drawing from his experiences of loss, displacement, adoption, and personal transformation, he speaks on identity, belonging, faith, and overcoming adversity. He is the author of The Only Way Forward Is Back and lives in Tennessee with his wife, Amanda, and their children.

Wil Ravelo spent years as a Green Beret developing the kind of environmental awareness, threat assessment discipline, and rapid decision-making under pressure that most people will never need and most operators carry with them for the rest of their lives, and when he transitioned into law enforcement and eventually SWAT, he discovered that the tools were the same even when the rules of engagement were entirely different. This episode is a deep dive into how elite military training rewires the way you perceive and process a threat environment, what translates from a Special Forces deployment to a domestic hostage situation, and how Wil learned to calibrate the speed and intensity of his threat response to fit a civilian law enforcement context without dulling the instincts that kept him alive overseas. If you want to understand how the highest-performing operators in the world think about space, movement, pattern recognition, and the decision cycle, this conversation is the blueprint.

Football chooses us. We chase the highs. And one day… the game ends.   Host Ryan Walters sits with players in the ultimate what-if scenario: seconds from a World Cup Final as their careers flash before their eyes. Matches, milestones, moments, mistakes, people. This is football in full life, in full vision. This is Tunnel Vision.   In this episode, Ryan sits down with Charyl Chappuis, the Swiss-Thai midfielder who built a career across two continents. A FIFA U17 World Cup winner with Switzerland, and 2014 AFF Championship hero with Thailand, he quickly became one of Thai football's most beloved figures.    Honest, warm, and quietly profound, this is the story of a man who gave everything to two countries and spent his life proving that belonging isn't about where you're from, it's about what you give.  

Have you ever felt like something about this world just isn't quite right? In the opening message of our new series through 1 Peter, we discover that this tension is actually part of the Christian experience. Peter writes to believers as "elect exiles"—people who live here, but ultimately belong somewhere else. As followers of Jesus, we are citizens of heaven living in a temporary world, called to remain faithful while we wait for our true home. Join us as we explore what it means to live between two worlds, rest in God's choosing love, and find confidence in the fact that while this world may call us strangers, God calls us His own

The Story of Joseph | Life Between Two WorldsAs we come to the end of our journey through Genesis, we turn to its final great character, and perhaps the most Christ-alluding figure in the Old Testament: Joseph. His story is a literary masterpiece, marked by rise, fall, and rise again. A beloved son betrayed by his brothers, cast down into suffering, and then lifted to unexpected glory, Joseph's life is filled with themes of rejection, temptation, hidden providence, suffering, forgiveness, and reconciliation. Above all, his story shows us that even in the darkest chapters, God is at work, bringing grace through pain and salvation through what seemed lost.Teaching Text: Genesis 41:37-52, 50:24-25.Preached by Paul Khochay

Revelation 6:1-8

What does it mean to live as a Christian in a world that constantly pulls our hearts toward temporary things? In this message from 2 Corinthians chapter 5, we explore Paul's powerful reminder that believers are citizens of another kingdom. Our earthly lives are temporary, but our eternal future in Christ is secure. Because of that, we are called to walk by faith, live to please Christ, and serve as faithful ambassadors for the Gospel. This sermon examines: * The danger of becoming too attached to this world * How fear quietly controls our decisions * The characteristics of a transformed life * What it means to walk by faith instead of sight * Ways Christians can misrepresent Christ before the world * The ministry of reconciliation entrusted to every believer As followers of Christ, we are living between two worlds—present in this life, but longing for the one to come. The question is not simply whether we claim Christ, but whether we faithfully represent Him while we are here.

The Stages of Change Mini SeriesUnderstanding the Contemplation Stage of ChangeIn today's episode we continue our series exploring the Stages of Change model developed by James Prochaska and Carlo DiClemente.This episode explores the contemplation stage, the stage where awareness has begun, but change has not yet fully happened.The part of us that wants change… and the part that is still afraid of it.In this episode we explore:Why awareness and action are not the same thingThe emotional exhaustion of living between two worldsWhy people stay stuck in patterns they know are hurting themThe hidden benefits behaviours can still provideFear, identity, belonging, and nervous system safetyWhy familiar pain can feel safer than uncertaintyThe grief that can come with changeSupporting someone who is in contemplation without pushing or shaming themWe also talk about how contemplation is often a deeply vulnerable stage because once awareness begins, it becomes difficult to fully “unsee” the impact of our behaviours.This episode is an invitation to meet inner conflict with honesty instead of judgement, and to understand that questioning a behaviour is already movement.Journal prompts or reflection:What behaviour or pattern am I currently questioning in my life?What do I fear I might lose if I change?What is this behaviour helping me avoid, numb, regulate, or cope with?How can I best support my nervous system through this?For more resources such as coaching or to join the next HIQA challenge go towww.iquitalcohol.com.auFollow HIQA insta @howiquitalcohol Music for Podcast intro and outro written by Danni Carr performed by Mr CassidyIf you are struggling with physical dependancy on alcohol consider contacting a local AA meeting or a drug and alcohol therapist.

Sunday Sermon, May 10, 2026 Text: Philippians 1:19-26 Preacher: Matthew Price

LESSON 130It Is Impossible To See Two Worlds.Perception is consistent. What you see reflects your thinking. And your thinking but reflects your choice of what you want to see. Your values are determiners of this, for what you value you must want to see, believing what you see is really there. No one can see a world his mind has not accorded value. And no one can fail to look upon what he believes he wants.Yet who can really hate and love at once? Who can desire what he does not want to have reality? And who can choose to see a world of which he is afraid? Fear must make blind, for this its weapon is: That which you fear to see you cannot see. Love and perception thus go hand in hand, but fear obscures in darkness what is there.What, then, can fear project upon the world? What can be seen in darkness that is real? Truth is eclipsed by fear, and what remains is but imagined. Yet what can be real in blind imaginings of panic born? What would you want that this is shown to you? What would you wish to keep in such a dream?Fear has made everything you think you see. All separation, all distinctions, and the multitude of differences you believe make up the world. They are not there. Love's enemy has made them up. Yet love can have no enemy, and so they have no cause, no being and no consequence. They can be valued, but remain unreal. They can be sought, but they can not be found. Today we will not seek for them, nor waste this day in seeking what can not be found.It is impossible to see two worlds which have no overlap of any kind. Seek for the one; the other disappears. But one remains. They are the range of choice beyond which your decision cannot go. The real and the unreal are all there are to choose between, and nothing more than these.Today we will attempt no compromise where none is possible. The world you see is proof you have already made a choice as all-embracing as its opposite. What we would learn today is more than just the lesson that you cannot see two worlds. It also teaches that the one you see is quite consistent from the point of view from which you see it. It is all a piece because it stems from one emotion, and reflects its source in everything you see.Six times today, in thanks and gratitude, we gladly give five minutes to the thought that ends all compromise and doubt, and go beyond them all as one. We will not make a thousand meaningless distinctions, nor attempt to bring with us a little part of unreality, as we devote our minds to finding only what is real.Begin your searching for the other world by asking for a strength beyond your own, and recognizing what it is you seek. You do not want illusions. And you come to these five minutes emptying your hands of all the petty treasures of this world. You wait for God to help you, as you say:It is impossible to see two worlds.Let me accept the strength God offers me and see no value in this world,that I may find my freedom and deliverance.God will be there. For you have called upon the great unfailing Power Which will take this giant step with you in gratitude. Nor will you fail to see His thanks expressed in tangible perception and in truth. You will not doubt what you will look upon, for though it is perception, it is not the kind of seeing that your eyes alone have ever seen before. And you will know God's strength upheld you as you made this choice.Dismiss temptation easily today whenever it arises, merely by remembering the limits of your choice. The unreal or the real, the false or true is what you see and only what you see. Perception is consistent with your choice, and hell or Heaven comes to you as one.Accept a little part of hell as real, and you have damned your eyes and cursed your sight, and what you will behold is hell indeed. Yet the release of Heaven still remains within your range of choice, to take the place of everything that hell would show to you. All you need say to any part of hell, whatever form it takes, is simply this:It is impossible to see two worlds.I seek my freedom and deliverance, and this is not a part of what I want.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

NPR Weekend Edition host Scott Simon has authored a new book reflecting on his life through his various pets. Additionally, former Green Beret Jim Hasse released a short story collection based on his background as an undercover detective and federal inspector.

This week, I'm playing around with a variation of the archery technique I was working on last week (holding arrows in my bow hand) but also combining it with another technique, holding a few in my drawing hand also.  They each have their pros and cons, but I think Logan and Aurora might have played around with both, and probably others.At the suggestion of former show guest Billy Campbell, I have been reading the fantasy book, A Wizard of Earthsea.  This is actually my third time trying to get into it - once as a child, once in my 20s, and then again, twenty+ years after that.   Third time's the charm, I suppose.  I found it quite difficult to understand before, but I think the combination of an initially unlikeable protagonist and the dreamy, myth-like writing style were initial barriers that have grown on me this round.  The tale is a great example of how sometimes, you can and should break the rule of "show, not tell," because it is very much the sort of thing you might be told around a fire on a dark winter's night.  One interesting fact is that the author of the book, Ursula Le Guin, had parents who were anthtopologists - Theodora and Alfred Krober.  Alfred Krober was one of the anthropologists who worked with Ishi, the last of the Yahi people in California after they were killed in massacres in the late 1880s.  In 1911, Ishi was "found" (i.e. emerged from hiding, half staved) and brought to San Francisco.  He became part of an anthropology museum, working a job and demonstrating traditional Native American skills for museum attendees and forming what sounded like a genuine friendship with the anthropologists, who also recorded his reactions to 20th century life.  He would later also befriend a University of CA physician, Saxton Pope, around archery, and their collaboration would basically form the basis for a re-mergence of traditional bowhunting in the United States.  Unfortunately, Ishi died in 1916 of pulmonary TB.  Alfred Krober was away on sabbatical at the time, and for whatever reason, Ishi's body underwent an autopsy, and his brain was removed.  Alfred was very upset by all of this when he returned and found the subject quite difficult to talk about for years.  Decades later, his wife wrote the book, Ishi in Two Worlds, that became very popular.   The fact that Ursula Le Guin undoubtedly grew up hearing her parents talk about Ishi makes me wonder if her writing style for this book, reminiscent of a myth, was influenced by her parents' work, and if her protagonist for the book, Ged, portrayed as having reddish - brown skin, was not in some way influenced by Ishi.  Of note, Ged was given that name by his master teacher, just as Ishi was given that name since no one knew his real name.  I think the custom in his tribe was for someone else to introduce a person to another by name, and since there was no one else of his tribe left, the Yahi word for man ("ishi") was used instead.  In Le Guin's Eathsea books, magic stems from knowing an object's true name.  It's a sign of acknowledgement and respect that commands power and summons the natural forces of the Earth.  Part of me wonders if this was again an ode of Ishi, who died without anyone in the living world know his true name.  I don't know, but I do wonder at the connection.   Pictures: https://13thhr.wordpress.com/2026/05/04/the-thirteenth-hour-podcast-560-thirteenth-hour-sequel-update-9-working-a-fast-shooting-archery-technique-ishi-a-wizard-of-earthsea/∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ Signup for the mailing list for a free special edition podcast, a demo copy of The Thirteenth Hour, and access to retro 80s soundtrack!Like what you see or hear?

What does it mean to belong to more than one world at once? Sahaj Kohli—founder of Brown Girl Therapy and author of What Will People Say?—explores the emotional complexity of bicultural identity, the immigrant experience, and the hidden pressures of being “culturally enough.” Together, we explore how culture shapes mental health, why many therapy models miss the mark for marginalized communities, and what truly culturally responsive care can look like. Sahaj also shares how social media became a lifeline for connection, community, and healing for people navigating multiple identities. This episode offers powerful insight for therapists, helpers, and anyone balancing family expectations, identity, and belonging across cultures. “Collectives are made of individuals, and we can’t be our best selves within those collectives and in those roles if we are not also taking care of ourselves. Yet we can’t be our best selves as individuals without considering the collective and our communities.” – Sahaj Kohli Time Stamps for Between Two Worlds: Navigating Bicultural Identity with Sahaj Kohli (298) 03:46 Cultural identity and the immigrant experience 07:28 The birth of Brown Girl Therapy 11:22 Understanding the dominant narrative 15:07 Cultural differences in communication and boundaries 19:05 Cultural responsiveness in therapy 26:49 The burden of cultural “enoughness” 29:11 Navigating pride and shame in biculturalism 31:08 Grief and loss in cultural transition 39:20 Resources for bicultural and multicultural understanding About our Guest – Sahaj Kohli MA.Ed, LGPC, NCC  Sahaj Kohli by Beowulf Sheehan Sahaj Kaur Kohli MA.Ed, LGPC, NCC is an award-winning therapist and mental health educator.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!Some people spend their lives searching for answers. Others find themselves receiving them—whether they ask for them or not. From an early age, Brittney Ann began experiencing the world in a way that couldn't be easily explained, sensing and connecting with something beyond the physical.Over time, those experiences evolved into a deeper connection—one that now allows her to communicate using multiple intuitive senses, delivering detailed messages that often bring clarity, comfort, and unexpected insight. For those seeking answers about love, loss, health, or direction in life, these moments can feel deeply personal—and sometimes impossible to dismiss.But living with that kind of awareness comes with its own challenges. The connection isn't something that can simply be turned off, and the responsibility of delivering messages from beyond carries weight.For those who turn to her, the experience can be transformative. And for those listening, it raises a bigger question: what if the answers we're searching for are already trying to reach us?#TheGraveTalks #PsychicMedium #Clairvoyant #SpiritualConnection #MessagesFromBeyond #LifeAfterDeath #ParanormalPodcast #Mediumship #HealingJourney #SpiritualAwakeningLove real ghost stories?
