In Episode 345 of The Canine Paradigm, we're joined once again by our wonderful friend and regular guest, Birdy O'Sheedy. This conversation revolves around the real, often under appreciated, joy of simply living a full and present life with our dogs. It's a reminder of why we do what we do. Together, we explore the deep connection between humans and dogs, one built not only on training and structure, but on unconditional love, shared moments, and being truly present. As coaches in our respective fields, we reflect on how our mission has always been about improving that bond for the people and dogs we serve. If you've ever found yourself smiling at your dog for no reason at all, or wondered how to bring more meaning to your life together, this episode will speak to you. It's not about methodology, it's about mindset, presence, and the joy of love that needs no justification.

Miroslav Volf explores agapic love, creation's goodness, and God's grief—an alternative to despair, power, and world rejection.“When a wanted child is born, the immense joy of many parents often renders them mute, but their radiant faces speak of surprised delight: ‘Just look at you! It is so very good that you are here!' This delight precedes any judgment about the beauty, functionality, or moral rectitude of the child. The child's sheer existence, the mere fact of it, is ‘very good.' That's what I propose God, too, exclaimed, looking at the new-born world. And that unconditional love grounds creation's existence.”In this fourth Gifford Lecture, Miroslav Volf contrasts the selective and self-centered love of Ivan Karamazov with the radically inclusive, unconditional love of Father Zosima. Drawing deeply from Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov, Genesis's creation and flood narratives, and Hannah Arendt's concept of amor mundi, Volf explores a theology of agapic love: unearned, universal, and enduring. This is the love by which God sees creation as “very good”—not because it is perfect, but because it exists. It's the love that grieves corruption without destroying it, that sees responsibility as mutual, and that offers the only hope for life in a deeply flawed world. With references to Luther, Nietzsche, and modern visions of power and desire, Volf challenges us to ask what kind of love makes a world, sustains it, and might one day save it. “Love the world,” he insists, “or lose your soul.”Episode Highlights“The world will either be loved with unconditional love, or it'll not be loved at all.”“Unconditional love abides. If the object of love is in a state that can be celebrated, love rejoices. If it is not, love mourns and takes time to help bring it back to itself.”“Each is responsible for all. Each is guilty for all. Each needs forgiveness from all. Each must forgive all.”“Creation is not primarily sacramental or iconic. It is an object of delight both for humans and for God.”“Agapic love demands nothing from the beloved, though it cares and hopes much for them and for the shared world with them.”Show NotesSchopenhauer and Nietzsche's visions of happiness: pleasure and power as substitutes for love“Love as hunger”: the devouring nature of epithemic desireIvan Karamazov's tragic love for life—selective, gut-level, and self-focused“There is still… this wild and perhaps indecent thirst for life in me”Father Zosima's universal love for “every leaf and every ray of God's light”“Love man also in his sin… Love all God's creation”Sonya and Raskolnikov in Crime and Punishment: love as restoration“She loved him and stayed with him—not although he murdered, but because he murdered”God's declaration in Genesis: “And look—it was very good”Hannah Arendt's amor mundi—“I want you to be” as pure affirmationCreation as gift: “Each is itself by being more than itself”Martin Luther on marriage, sex, and delight as godly pleasuresThe flood as hypothetical: divine grief replaces divine destruction“It grieved God to his heart”—grief as a form of agapic love“Each is responsible for all. Each is guilty for all.”Agape over erotic love: not reward and punishment, but faithful presence and care“Agapic love demands nothing… It is free, sovereign to love, humble.”Closing invitation: to live the life of love, under whatever circumstancesProduction NotesThis podcast featured Miroslav VolfEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Taylor Craig and Macie BridgeA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/giveSpecial thanks to Dr. Paul Nimmo, Paula Duncan, and the media team at the University of Aberdeen.

Shelter from the StormBob Dylan'Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and bloodWhen blackness was a virtue, the road was full of mudI came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form“Come in,” she said, “I'll give you shelter from the storm”And if I pass this way again, you can rest assuredI'll always do my best for her, on that I give my wordIn a world of steel-eyed death, and men who are fighting to be warm“Come in,” she said, “I'll give you shelter from the storm”Not a word was spoke between us, there was little risk involvedEverything up to that point had been left unresolvedTry imagining a place where it's always safe and warm“Come in,” she said, “I'll give you shelter from the storm”I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hailPoisoned in the bushes an' blown out on the trailHunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn“Come in,” she said, “I'll give you shelter from the storm”Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' thereWith silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hairShe walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns“Come in,” she said, “I'll give you shelter from the storm”Now there's a wall between us, somethin' there's been lostI took too much for granted, I got my signals crossedJust to think that it all began on an uneventful morn“Come in,” she said, “I'll give you shelter from the storm”Well, the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mountBut nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that countsAnd the one-eyed undertaker, he blows a futile horn“Come in,” she said, “I'll give you shelter from the storm”I've heard newborn babies wailin' like a mournin' doveAnd old men with broken teeth stranded without loveDo I understand your question, man, is it hopeless and forlorn?“Come in,” she said, “I'll give you shelter from the storm”In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothesI bargained for salvation an' she gave me a lethal doseI offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn“Come in,” she said, “I'll give you shelter from the storm”Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the lineBeauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mineIf I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born“Come in,” she said, “I'll give you shelter from the storm”

Be guided in a meditation to release any grudges, and to experience forgiveness. This week's journey may have revealed a profound truth: your emotional state is deeply intertwined with your physical and energetic health. When you experience anger, your body reacts with a cascade of physiological changes—your heart rate increases, your blood pressure rises, and stress hormones like cortisol flood your system. This is the fight-or-flight response, a survival mechanism designed for short-term threats, not for the long-term emotional burdens of holding a grudge.

Be guided in a meditation on forgiveness. When we can forgive ourselves and those who have wronged us, we can find a deep sense of inner peace. However, when it is blocked or imbalanced—often due to emotional pain or trauma—we may experience feelings of loneliness, bitterness, or a fear of intimacy.

We should love people unconditionally because it allows us to see their worth beyond their flaws, mistakes, or differences.Unconditional love builds trust, promotes healing, and encourages growth—both for the person receiving it and the one giving it. When you love without conditions:You create a safe space for honesty and vulnerability.You strengthen relationships because love isn't dependent on performance.You reflect the kind of compassion you would hope to receive in your own low moments.You help break cycles of judgment, fear, and insecurity.It doesn't mean ignoring wrong behavior or tolerating harm it means caring for the person while still addressing issues with truth and kindness.Unconditional love is powerful because it connects to who someone is, not just what they do.Cash app: $sbfavorVenmo : @sbfavorPaypal: sblove47@gmal.com
Continuing our work with the Third Chakra, today's insight is about channeling your life force, or zest, into positive action. Unaddressed anger can be a powerful but destructive energy. When you feel anger, it's often a sign of a boundary crossed or an unmet need. Spiritually, this is an opportunity to assert your will in a healthy way. Psychologically, studies show that channeling intense emotion into productive, goal-oriented activities (like creative work or exercise) can lead to a state of flow, reducing rumination and increasing feelings of accomplishment. WELCOME TO THIS WEEK'S SERIES: THE UNCONDITIONAL HEART: TURNING ANGER INTO POSITIVE ENERGY This series is your guide to transforming the energy of anger into something powerful and positive. We'll explore spiritual insights and practices rooted in the chakra system, a concept in Eastern traditions that describes energetic centers in the body. We'll move from the core of your power to the wellspring of your creativity, culminating in the limitless compassion of your heart. This is day 3 of a 7-day meditation series, "The Unconditional Heart: Turning Anger into Positive Energy," episodes 3360-3369. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE Acts of Compassion Quest: For the next seven days, practice one small act of self-compassion and one act of gratitude each day.

Self-love shouldn't come with conditions, yet so many of us hold ourselves hostage to impossible standards. I'm tackling this concept of "transactional self-love" in this throwback episode. Transactional self-love are the unconscious bargains we make with ourselves, promising kindness and acceptance only after certain benchmarks are met. We've all said it: "I'll love myself when I lose weight," "I'll be kind to myself once my divorce is finalized," or "I'll accept myself when I find someone new." These conditional statements reveal how deeply we've internalized the message that we must earn our own affection. I explore this phenomenon through multiple lenses; our biological negativity bias, childhood experiences of conditional love, and the societal conditioning that teaches women their value depends on external factors. The relationship you have with yourself forms the foundation for every other relationship in your life. When you withhold compassion from yourself, you're likely applying the same transactional approach to others. Breaking free from this pattern starts with awareness – identifying your personal conditions for self-acceptance and consciously choosing more compassionate alternatives. Through practical steps and thoughtful guidance, I demonstrate how to build an unshakable foundation of self-love that doesn't fluctuate based on achievements or circumstances. This isn't about achieving perfect self-love but creating a baseline of acceptance that supports you through life's inevitable challenges. You'll learn how to recognize your conditional thinking and practice new neural pathways of self-compassion through consistent, intentional thought work.To download your FREE GUIDE: "What to Expect When Divorcing: The Ultimate Guide to Dealing with the Emotional Rollercoaster of Divorce" click here.

Today, we focus on the Third Chakra (Manipura), located in the solar plexus, which governs your personal power, purpose, and self-worth. Anger often arises when we feel powerless or our core values are threatened. From a spiritual perspective, this anger can be a signal that we need to reconnect with our authentic purpose and sense of inner strength. Research in psychoneuroimmunology shows a strong link between our sense of purpose and overall well-being, suggesting that a strong inner core helps us regulate our emotional responses.

Have you ever wondered what happens when you have to say goodbye to a pet? You might be faced with difficult choices, questions about euthanasia, and how to honor your pet’s memory. Today, Dr. Jennifer Le talks about the role of a veterinarian at this moment, her personal story, and what you need to know when this time comes. We’ll cover: Why we make the decision to euthanize a pet Options for memorializing them How veterinarians help families through the process Key Takeaways 1. Veterinarians play a crucial part not only in the health and wellbeing of pets but also as compassionate guides during the emotionally challenging process of euthanasia and end-of-life decisions. Their empathy and experience help pet owners navigate grief and make humane choices for their animals. 2. The decision to euthanize is deeply personal and rooted in love for the pet. It’s framed around prioritizing an animal’s quality of life over quantity, using specific cues about what brought the pet joy as guidance. Veterinarians support families by discussing when suffering outweighs daily joys, ensuring the decision is about the pet’s well-being. 3. There are several compassionate options for memorializing pets after euthanasia, including cremation, burial, paw prints, and keepsakes. Veterinary clinics increasingly offer personalized aftercare options, acknowledging the profound grief and need for closure that accompanies pet loss. 4. Losing a pet is a significant emotional event; grief is very real and can be profound. Unconditional love from pets makes their loss deeply felt, but memories, rituals, and memorials can bring comfort. Support from empathetic veterinarians makes this process healthier and less isolating for pet owners. 5. The short lifespan of pets is often seen as purposeful: they give us unconditional love and support, acting like “angels” during key periods of our lives. Many find meaning in the belief that pets come into our lives for a reason and, when they leave, often bring new animal companions to help continue healing.

Michael Kelley preaches from Philippians 4. As Paul brings his letter to the Philippians to a close, he provides instruction without exceptions. The Christian life should be marked by unconditional rejoicing, unconditional gentleness, unconditional prayer, and unconditional peace. Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God's grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.

The present tends to seem more distressing to us than the past, for the simple reason that we are not obliged to live in the past. Nevertheless the distress of our present age is real and therein lies the temptation to despair. We see senseless wars and war crimes; we see Machiavellian politics and political corruption; we see growing inequality and flagrant injustice; in the words of the psalmist, the arrogant prosper and the wicked have no pain. And so we are tempted to despair. But we do not have to despair.

In this episode of Notable Leaders' Radio, I sit down with Andy Crocker, author of The Unconditionals, to explore how five core values, unconditional love, gratitude, integrity, accountability, and endeavor, can transform how we face challenges and build resilience. Andy shares powerful insights and real-life stories that reveal how grounding yourself in these values can help you recover from failure faster, pivot with purpose, and live a life defined by meaning, not perfection. In this episode, you'll learn how to: See failure as a launchpad, not a dead end. When you stop viewing setbacks as defeat, you recover faster and grow wiser, equipped to seize new opportunities with greater clarity and courage. Define success on your own terms. Ditch the societal checklist. Pursuing fulfillment, not perfection, leads to greater joy, authenticity, and personal achievement. Pivot with purpose when life shifts. Unexpected turns are inevitable. A values-based mindset empowers you to adjust course with intention and rediscover meaning, even in the midst of change. Embrace imperfection as a path to progress. Mastery isn't about getting it right the first time—it's about learning, evolving, and moving forward without fear of failure.

In this episode of Redeemed Through His Blood, Scott and Deb explore one of the most hope-filled doctrines of the gospel—the unconditional effects of Jesus Christ's Atonement. These are the blessings given freely: the sustaining strength, healing grace, and divine compensation extended even when we're unaware, undeserving, or unready. With clarity and compassion, they unpack how Christ's love reaches into every soul, not because of who we are—but because of who He is.This conversation lifts burdens and quiets doubts, especially for those who feel like they haven't “earned” Christ's help. Scott and Deb testify that Jesus's Atonement isn't just reserved for the repentant—it's at work in the trauma we didn't cause, in the wounds we didn't choose, and in the aching places we don't yet know how to surrender. If you've ever wondered whether He's helping you—even when you're not doing “all the things”—this episode will answer with a resounding yes.

Episode 3210: Vironika Tugaleva offers a transformative perspective on the relationship between self-discovery and self-respect, urging readers to embrace their whole selves, including the parts they've hidden or judged. Her reflections challenge the idea that self-improvement starts with shame, proposing instead that true change begins with unconditional self-acceptance. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.vironika.org/self-discovery-self-respect/ Quotes to ponder: "Self-respect isn't something you earn by becoming a better person. It's something you discover when you realize you were worthy all along." "To reject who you are is to reject your own humanity." "You can't hate yourself into change. You can't reject yourself into growth. That's not how it works."

Jesus is the teacher who in the parable of the Good Samaritan calls us to show mercy. Jesus is the Good Samaritan who comes to us and saves us after we're are left for dead. Jesus is the one beaten by robbers who we are to be a neighbor to by showing mercy. Jesus is the innocent one crucified with the robbers, so that he can save them too.

When you're open, life feels beautiful and joyful; when you're closed, everything seems wrong. This leaves you with two choices: find things that open you or find out how not to close. The first leads to a life of struggling with people, places, and things to match your preferences, while the second leads to the spiritual state of unconditional well-being.
