What does it mean to glorify God through art?For many artists, the desire to glorify God can become an expectation that their work should communicate an explicitly religious message. But what happens when that expectation begins to constrict the artist? What if our attempts to make art that clearly communicates faith actually prevent the art from becoming genuinely transformative?In this solo meditation, Stephen Roach explores the relationship between Christian faith, artistic freedom, and the glory of God. Drawing on the work of Hans Rookmaaker and Flannery O'Connor, as well as the strange prophetic performances of Ezekiel, Isaiah, and Jeremiah, Stephen asks whether art needs to be explicitly religious in order to be spiritually meaningful.Stephen revisits the story of Paolo Veronese and his controversial painting of The Last Supper, which brought him before the Catholic Inquisition in 1573. The story raises an important question for artists and faith communities alike: what happens when our desire to protect familiar expressions of faith leaves no room for artistic imagination?Perhaps glorifying God through art doesn't always mean making art that is easily recognizable as Christian. Perhaps sometimes it means following our creative curiosity into places that are unfamiliar, challenging, ambiguous, or even strange.In a world where familiar religious imagery can become wallpaper, what might happen if we made room for art that surprises us again?In this episode:Rethinking what it means to "glorify God" through artWhy treating art as a "tool" for evangelism can strip it of its powerThe shocking performance art of Ezekiel, Isaiah, and JeremiahPaolo Veronese's controversial Last SupperHow religious conformity can restrict artistic creativityWhy faith communities need to cultivate curiosity rather than judgmentThe danger of familiar truths becoming spiritually dullABOUT THE HOSTStephen Roach is the host of Makers and Mystics, a podcast exploring the intersection of creativity, faith, and the human experience. He is an artist, curator, poet, and musician. He is currently writing How to See Invisible Things, a book exploring the future of art and faith. Stephen has spent over a decade advocating for creativity as a spiritual discipline and calling.RESOURCES AND LINKSArt Needs No Justification by Hans Rookmaaker — the book referenced for its argument that art has intrinsic value apart from evangelistic use Five Creativity Killers and How to Avoid Them by Stephen Roach — Stephen's booklet where he first wrote about Paolo Veronese's trialDisclaimer: This episode is a case for unconventional art, but I want to be clear that it is not a disparagement of sacred art: work created specifically for devotional or liturgical environments and practices.

Mary Roach, author of Replaceable You, explores the past, present, and future of reconstructing or replacing human anatomy. Roach details the treatment of severe third-degree burns using allografts from cadavers or unconventional biological dressings like Icelandic cod skin. Advancements in 3D-printing allow researchers to use "ink" made of cells and collagen to create complex structures like heart ventricles and valves. Furthermore, the book examines xenotransplantation, which involves using genetically edited pigs to provide "stop-gap" organs for patients on waiting lists, and the potential for chimeras to grow human-compatible kidneys. Beyond high-tech solutions, Roach highlights the impact of tissue donation, where a single deceased donor can benefit 70 people through gifts of bone, skin, and corneas. Finally, Roach investigates the history of nasal repair and modern plastic surgeons' application of the Fibonacci sequence to achieve mathematical perfection in aesthetic procedures. (1)

Ahead of this year's NWSL semifinals, we're taking a look back at our interview with María Sánchez from November of 2024. Maria spoke with Tobin and Christen about her family's journey from Mexico to Idaho, having to sneak out of the house to play soccer as a kid, getting a once-in-a-lifetime chance to try out for (and make) the Mexican National Team, signing one of the biggest contracts in NWSL history, becoming a role model for up and coming female soccer players and so much more. Maria currently plays with Tigres in Liga MX Feminil and represents Mexico internationally. New episodes every week.

Host Christopher Robbins interviews author Deborah Williams about creating meaningful bedtime routines that prioritize security over perfection. Williams shares insights from raising nine children and observing her grandchildren across two vastly different family schedules—one highly structured, one flexible—revealing that consistency in love matters far more than rigid routines. Through charming anecdotes about unconventional security objects (from pizza crusts to hammers) and a chaotic household filled with animals, Williams demonstrates that children thrive when they feel safe, loved, and connected through bedtime stories, regardless of the specific routine.  Episode Highlights  00:02:15: Christopher introduces Deborah Williams and her refreshing philosophy that there is no one perfect way to handle bedtime routines. 00:05:30: Deborah discusses her observation of two different parenting styles in her own family—one highly organized Seattle schedule and one flexible restaurant industry rhythm—with equally successful outcomes.  00:08:45: Deborah shares the story of her adopted son from Korea who found comfort in sleeping with a pizza crust under his pillow for several nights.  00:12:20: Christopher recounts his own family's unusual security objects, including his daughter sleeping with a garter snake named Bubba and a son who still sleeps with a pocket knife at age 34.  00:16:50: Deborah describes the chaotic household pets, including Tootsie Roll the pig that grew much larger than expected and a cat named Popcorn who gave birth to kittens in her daughter's crib.  00:22:30: Discussion of why dinosaurs were chosen as the main characters for "Nighty Night Dinos," emphasizing that dinosaurs are comforting because they're not real and give children a sense of control.  00:26:15: Deborah reflects on her lifelong love of dinosaurs, stemming from finding an actual dinosaur bone as a first grader in upstate New York.  Key Takeaways  Perfect bedtime routines are less important than consistency in love and security; children thrive when they feel emotionally safe regardless of schedule structure.  Unconventional security objects—whether pizza crusts, hammers, or snakes—serve a legitimate developmental purpose and should be respected rather than dismissed.  Bedtime stories are the universal anchor across all family types; this consistent practice matters more than the specific timing or format of the routine.  Flexibility in parenting approaches allows families to adapt to their circumstances while maintaining the core element of emotional security for children.  Quotable Moments  "Whatever gets you through the night, it's all right." — Deborah Williams (attributing John Lennon)  "Kids are flexible. Families are different. Families are flexible also. And you just do what works for your family with love and keeping the kids secure." — Deborah Williams  "I think dinosaurs are comforting to kids. For when they're not around, you know, they're not real. They're big animals that the kids can be in charge of." — Deborah Williams

John Tamny, author of The Money John Tamny, author of The Money Confusion: How a Literacy About Currencies and Inflation Sets the Stage for the Crypto Revolution, provides an unconventional analysis of money, arguing that its only purpose is to circulate consumable goods as a product of specialized labor. Drawing on Adam Smith's principles, he asserts that wealth is created through the division of labor and that money is simply an agreement about value between producers. Tamny contends that current fears of "inflation" are misguided; he defines real inflation as a deliberate devaluation of currency by policy choice, such as the 1971 delinking of the dollar from gold. The book argues that the high prices seen after 2020 were caused by the economic destruction of lockdowns, not an excess of money. Tamny is highly critical of the Federal Reserve, claiming it has no real power over growth or interest rates for startups, as true credit always finds talent regardless of central bank fiddling. He uses Elon Musk as a recurring example of an innovator whose success in companies like PayPal and SpaceX was driven by venture capital and risk-takers rather than traditional banks. Tamny envisions a crypto revolution where private, stable money replaces failed government currencies. He suggests that the recent volatility in crypto is a healthy "shaking out" of the market, paving the way for mature, information-based money systems. He speculates that Musk may eventually use Twitter to launch a global, stable cryptocurrency, finally fulfilling the vision of a "global financial supermarket."

Have you ever signed up for something, only to have it turn out different than you expected? When things don’t make sense, we’re tempted to quit! Pastor Mike Fabarez shares a lesson about one man who got more than he bargained for, and how he learned the meaning of Ambitious Faith.

As we go about life, it’s only natural to use our judgment and common sense. But when something doesn’t line up with our logic, it’s also natural to resist! Pastor Mike Fabarez helps us grow in our trust of God, even when it doesn’t make sense.

Most abortion debates fail to advance the conversation because the two sides aren't arguing on the same grounds — one side makes a moral or religious case, the other a case from women's rights; so they talk past each other. Kerry Baldwin argues that there's a better approach. In this FreedomFest debate with Michael Shermer, Baldwin makes her case. Shermer approaches abortion from a secular humanist perspective, making a moral-pragmatic case for pro-choice that centers the lived reality and full moral status of women. Baldwin, though a professing Christian, does not argue from religious or moral grounds. Instead, she argues from a natural law, libertarian legal-rights, and free-market perspective. Both are critical of the conventional pro-life argument, and both believe that reducing unwanted pregnancies through free-market solutions is the practical path forward. What they disagree on is whether a consistent defense of women's rights can stop short of recognizing fetal self-ownership. Rather than relitigating the familiar culture-war framing, this debate advances the liberty conversation by asking what libertarian principles actually require and what the net benefit is for women's rights more broadly.Be sure to bring your questions and participate in Kerry's post-debate live Q&A here: https://mereliberty.com/freedomfest-attendee-email-list/Kerry's main site: https://mereliberty.com/The Reformed Libertarians Podcast: https://libertarianchristians.com/shows/reformed-libertarians-podcast/Audio Production by Podsworth Media - https://podsworth.com Use code LCI50 for 50% off your first order at Podsworth.com to clean up your voice recordings and also support LCI!Full Podsworth Ad Read BEFORE & AFTER processing:https://youtu.be/vbsOEODpQGs  ★ Support this podcast ★

The climate transition will require trillions of dollars of investment, but many of the biggest opportunities still face structural financing barriers because our financial system was not designed for a challenge of this scale and complexity. As investors, entrepreneurs, and institutions work to accelerate the transition, there is a growing need for new financial models that can bridge those gaps and unlock capital more effectively.Today, we're joined by Bob Zulkoski of Conduit Capital, a firm taking a very different approach to climate finance. Rather than building one big fund, Conduit is creating platforms designed to unlock private capital at scale — from financing energy-efficiency upgrades in commercial real estate, to launching climate-transition SPACs, to developing a new blended-finance vehicle aimed at helping impact investment managers bridge what Bob calls the “Pioneer Gap.” Bob calls the model radical collaboration, and the goal is not just to invest well, but to prove new models that others can replicate.On today's episode, we cover:1:19 – Framing the Climate Finance Challenge and Introducing Bob Zulkoski2:34 – What Is Conduit Capital?

The Townsend Plan and the Radio Priest Guest: David Pietrusza Book Title: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal Two unconventional figures heavily influenced Roosevelt's 1936 strategy: Dr. Francis Townsend and Father Charles Coughlin. Townsend, a physician, gained a massive following with his plan to provide $200 a month to everyone over 60, provided they retired and spent the money within 30 days. Though Roosevelt initially disliked the idea of "government checks," the political pressure from Townsend Clubs forced his hand. Consequently, Social Security was introduced largely as a reactive measure to neutralize Townsend's momentum. Meanwhile, Father Coughlin, a Canadian-born Roman Catholic priest, became a radio sensation with a voice that rivaled Roosevelt's for intimacy and warmth. Initially a supporter who coined the phrase "Roosevelt or Ruin," Coughlin turned against the President when he felt his influence on monetary policy was ignored. In a surreal meeting arranged by Joseph P. Kennedy at Hyde Park in September 1935 — the morning after Huey Long's death — Coughlin and FDR spent six hours conferring. The meeting failed to reconcile them, and Coughlin soon teamed up with Townsend and Gerald L.K. Smith to form the Union Party. They nominated Congressman William Lemke to run for president, hoping to force the election into the House of Representatives. However, as political amateurs, they struggled to even get on the ballot in major states like New York or California, ultimately failing to derail the Roosevelt machine. (3)

Dog owners tend to live longer and be healthier than people without dogs. But why would owning a dog have such a powerful effect on your health? The answer turns out to be surprisingly fascinating—especially when it comes to what dogs may be doing for children. https://hi.umn.edu/news/health-perks-pet-ownership You know that frustrating moment when someone completely misunderstands what you meant—even though you thought you were being perfectly clear? Communication problems often happen because people aren't all “speaking” the same way. According to psychotherapist Jason VanRuler, there are five distinct communication types, and each hears the world differently. Which means the problem may not be what you said—but how the other person processes it. Jason explains how understanding these communication styles can dramatically improve relationships, reduce conflict, and help people finally feel understood. He is author of Discovering Your Communication Type: The 5 Paths to Deeper Connections and Stronger Relationships (https://amzn.to/43iBcJB). A lot of people were taught that if you work hard, stay humble, and keep your head down, success will eventually find you. That sounds nice. It's also often terrible career advice. Promotions and opportunities frequently go to the people who know how to make themselves visible, memorable, and impossible to overlook. Courtney Johnson, creator of the viral “Problematic Career Cheat Codes” series on TikTok, explains the unspoken rules that actually drive career success—and why many talented people unknowingly sabotage themselves by following outdated advice. She is author of Career Cheat Codes: The Unspoken, Unconventional, and Unfiltered Rules of Career Success (https://amzn.to/4tIk7DD). Nearsightedness has exploded around the world, especially among children and young adults. Most people blame screens. But researchers say the bigger issue may actually be something we've stopped doing—and the consequences could affect eyesight for life. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2830598 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS POCKET HOSE: For a limited time, when you purchase a new Pocket Hose Ballistic, you'll get a FREE 360 degree rotating pocket pivot and a FREE thumb drive nozzle!
