On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and intern India Otto are back in studio talking about what USC is hoping to be a bounce-back victory over another former Pac-12 foe, with the Washington Huskies coming to the Coliseum. Both programs are coming off disappointing home conference losses after both had winning but underperforming efforts in their out of conference slates. Lincoln Riley has come under fire for his squad's performance against the Ducks and he needs a win badly to try and get the Trojans ready for a couple of challenging road trips.The crew takes a look at this intriguing matchup, with a surging USC offense facing a stingy Washington defense and a struggling Trojan defense against a middling Huskies offense. UW quarterback Demond Williams could be the X-factor in this one, with his ability to scramble and pick up yardage with his legs. SC's defensive front has been good at generating pressure but bad at turning that pressure into sacks, tackles for loss or turnovers, so containing Williams will be an important aspect of this game.At the end of the show Ryan, RJ and India will answer questions from the chat and make their score predictions for the game.This is the podcast version (audio only) of our Tunnel Vision episode.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify!Make sure you check out USCFootball.com for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.

LES 273De stilheid van Gods vrede is mijn deel.Wat is de Christus?Christus is de Zoon van God zoals Hij Hem geschapen heeft. Hij is het Zelf dat wij delen, dat ons met elkaar verenigt, en tevens met God. Hij is de Gedachte die nog steeds woont in de Denkgeest die Zijn Bron is. Hij heeft Zijn heilige woning niet verlaten, noch de onschuld verloren waarin Hij geschapen werd. Hij woont voor eeuwig onveranderd in de Denkgeest van God.Christus is de schakel die jou in eenheid houdt met God en er borg voor staat dat de afscheiding niet meer is dan een illusie van wanhoop, want hoop zal eeuwig in Hem verblijven. Jouw denkgeest maakt deel uit van de Zijne en de Zijne van die van jou. Hij is het deel waarin Gods Antwoord ligt, waarin alle beslissingen al genomen en dromen voorbij zijn. Hij blijft onaangeroerd door wat de ogen van het lichaam ook zien. Want hoewel Zijn Vader in Hem het middel voor jouw verlossing heeft geplaatst, blijft Hij toch het Zelf dat, zoals Zijn Vader, van geen zonde weet.Als woning van de Heilige Geest, en thuis alleen in God, blijft Christus vredig in de Hemel van jouw heilige denkgeest. Dit is het enige deel van jou dat in waarheid werkelijkheid bezit. De rest zijn dromen. Maar deze dromen zullen aan Christus worden gegeven om in het aanschijn van Zijn glorie te vervliegen en jouw heilige Zelf, de Christus, eindelijk aan jou te openbaren.Vanuit de Christus in jou reikt de Heilige Geest naar al jouw dromen en nodigt die uit tot Hem te komen, om in waarheid te worden omgezet. Hij zal ze inruilen voor de laatste droom, die God heeft aangewezen als het eind der dromen. Want wanneer vergeving op de wereld rust en vrede over iedere Zoon van God gekomen is, wat kan er dan nog zijn dat dingen gescheiden houdt, want wat blijft er nog te zien behalve Christus' gelaat?En hoe lang zal dit heilige gelaat te zien zijn, wanneer het slechts het symbool is dat de leertijd nu voorbij is, en het doel van de Verzoening eindelijk is bereikt? Dus laten we daarom proberen het gelaat van Christus te vinden en naar niets anders te kijken. Wanneer we Zijn heerlijkheid aanschouwen, weten we dat we geen behoefte meer hebben aan leren, aan waarneming of aan tijd, of aan iets anders dan het heilig Zelf, de Christus die God geschapen heeft als Zijn Zoon.LES 273De stilheid van Gods vrede is mijn deel.Misschien zijn we nu klaar voor een dag van ongestoorde vredigheid. Als dit nog niet haalbaar is, zijn we voldaan en zelfs meer dan tevreden te kunnen leren hoe zo'n dag kan worden bereikt. Mochten we een verstoring toelaten, laten we dan leren hoe we die van ons af kunnen zetten en weer tot vrede kunnen komen. We hoeven onze denkgeest slechts met overtuiging te zeggen: ‘De stilheid van Gods vrede is mijn deel,' en niets kan de vrede verstoren die God Zelf Zijn Zoon geschonken heeft.Vader, Uw vrede is mijn deel. Waarom zou ik dan bang zijn dat iets me kan beroven van wat U zou willen dat ik behoud? Ik kan Uw gaven aan mij niet verliezen. En dus is de vrede die U aan Uw Zoon gegeven hebt nog steeds bij mij, in de stilte en in mijn eigen eeuwige liefde voor U.Alle tekst- werk en handboek klassen van Een Cursus in Wonderen met Elbert nu te beluisteren en te bekijken op https://decursusmetelbert.nl

LES 270Vandaag zal ik niet de ogen van het lichaam gebruiken.Wat is het lichaam?Het lichaam is een hek dat de Zoon van God zich verbeeldt te hebben neergezet om delen van zijn Zelf af te scheiden van andere delen. Binnen dit hekwerk denkt hij te leven, om te sterven als dat afbrokkelt en uiteenvalt. Want binnen dit hek denkt hij dat hij voor de liefde veilig is. Omdat hij zich vereenzelvigt met zijn veiligheid, beschouwt hij zichzelf als datgene wat zijn veiligheid uitmaakt. Hoe zou hij er anders zeker van kunnen zijn dat hij binnen het lichaam blijft en de liefde buiten houdt?Het lichaam is niet blijvend. Maar dit ziet hij als dubbele veiligheid. De voorbijgaande aard van Gods Zoon is immers het ‘bewijs' dat zijn omheiningen werken en de taak uitvoeren die zijn denkgeest ze toebedeelt. Want als zijn éénzijn nog steeds onaangetast was, wie zou dan kunnen aanvallen en wie zou aangevallen kunnen worden? Wie zou overwinnaar kunnen zijn? En wie diens prooi? Wie zou slachtoffer kunnen zijn? En wie de moordenaar? En als hij niet doodging, welk ‘bewijs' is er dan dat Gods eeuwige Zoon kan worden vernietigd?Het lichaam is een droom. Zoals andere dromen schijnt het soms een beeld van geluk te schilderen, maar kan het heel plotseling omslaan in angst, waaruit iedere droom ontstaat. Want alleen liefde schept in waarheid, en de waarheid kan nooit bang zijn. Gemaakt om beangstigend te zijn, moet het lichaam wel het doel dienen dat eraan gegeven is. Maar wij kunnen het doel veranderen waaraan het lichaam zal gehoorzamen, door anders te gaan denken over waartoe het dient.Het lichaam is het middel waardoor Gods Zoon zijn innerlijke gezondheid hervindt. Hoewel het gemaakt werd om hem zonder ontsnappingsmogelijkheid in te sluiten in de hel, is nu het hemelse doel in de plaats gekomen van het najagen van de hel. De Zoon van God reikt zijn broeder de hand om hem te helpen samen met hem de weg te gaan. Nu is het lichaam heilig. Nu dient het om de denkgeest te genezen, terwijl het gemaakt was om die te doden.Je zult je vereenzelvigen met dat waarvan jij denkt dat het jou veiligheid biedt. Wat het ook mag zijn, je zult geloven dat het één is met jou. Jouw veiligheid ligt in de waarheid en niet in leugens. Liefde is jouw veiligheid. Angst bestaat niet. Vereenzelvig je met liefde en je bent veilig. Vereenzelvig je met liefde en je bent thuis. Vereenzelvig je met liefde en vind jouw Zelf.LES 270Vandaag zal ik niet de ogen van het lichaam gebruiken.Vader, de visie van Christus is Uw gave aan mij; ze heeft het vermogen alles wat de ogen van het lichaam zien te vertalen in de aanblik van een vergeven wereld. Hoe heerlijk en bekoorlijk is deze wereld! Maar hoeveel meer zal ik erin waarnemen dan met de ogen valt te zien! Een vergeven wereld betekent dat Uw Zoon zijn Vader erkent, zijn dromen tot de waarheid laat brengen en vol verwachting uitziet naar het ene nog resterende moment in de tijd, die voorgoed eindigt wanneer de herinnering van U tot hem terugkeert. En nu is zijn wil één met de Uwe. Zijn functie is nu slechts die van Uzelf, en iedere gedachte behalve de Uwe is verdwenen.De stilte van vandaag zal ons hart zegenen, en door middel daarvan zal er vrede komen over iedereen. Christus is vandaag onze ogen. En via Zijn zicht bieden we de wereld genezing aan door middel van Hem, de heilige Zoon die God heel geschapen heeft, de heilige Zoon die God één geschapen heeft.Alle tekst- werk en handboek klassen van Een Cursus in Wonderen met Elbert nu te beluisteren en te bekijken op https://decursusmetelbert.nl

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - had plenty of time this morning to get up, grab their favorite breakfast beverage, peruse the early kickoff shows and then hit the mic to talk about the very last game of the college football weekend; the Minnesota Golden Gophers and the Washington Huskies.With an 8 pm local time start, there are no other games being played later than this one, so time to rest up and check this out on your way to Husky Stadium, because it's going to be a late one.The guys start first with Minnesota's offense, led by quarterback Drake Lindsey and the issues they also face in the run game because of injury. Sound familiar?Lindsey, at 6-foot-5 and 230 pounds, is a vastly different quarterback than what Washington has seen so far this year. He's been compared to Drew Bledsoe, so he's got a rifle for an arm. But can the UW pass rush make Lindsey's life difficult? Or can we expect a lot of quick pass game and a steady diet of check-downs?They also talk about this as an Elinneus Davis 'revenge' game. Is he really salty about not being recruited as hard by the in-state school as he was others, including UW? We'll see.The talk then turns to Washington's offensive struggles. Will Jedd Fisch try and involve Demond Williams even more in the run game? And will the receiving corps continue to ramp up their play? They had an excellent game against Eastern Washington, but can they step things up to an even higher level?And what are the Huskies going to do about helping out first-year LT Kodi Greene? Will John Mills see some time outside? Minnesota definitely has some rushers of note, so this will be an important part of the game to watch for if you're a UW fan.Scott provides a quick recruiting update, including a note on top 2028 EDGE Jalanie George and his October 1 commitment date. How are the Huskies doing with George, especially knowing a couple of his teammates have already committed to the Huskies?Chris then adds his two cents in about Minnesota's potent special teams and then the guys offer their final thoughts before ending the pod.
Hugh Millen joins Dave Softy Mahler and Dick Fain to talk about Michael Penix beating the Packers last night, Bijan Robinson’s skills at running back, Sam Darnold making his return for the Seahawks, Seattle’s running backs, plus UW football and Minnesota next.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ik vraag om de illusie die alle illusies te boven gaat die ik heb gemaakt. Vandaag kies ik ervoor een vergeven wereld te zien, waarin eenieder mij het gelaat van Christus toont, en me leert dat wat ik zie mij toebehoort; dat er niets is behalve Uw heilige Zoon.Vandaag wordt onze blik waarlijk gezegend.

The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com Garth Heckman Psalm 127:3-5 — "Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one's youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them.” We can see this verse from two different perspectives: You as a father and you under your father. Let me start with the first… I AM THANKFUL FOR MY FATHER - Dad reading praying every day.. still does. - My Dad at Spencer Lake youth camp - My Dad Turing himself in to the DNR I was forged in the hands of a warrior… it is now my job to forge my sons so that they may forge their sons! Young men are more lonely than ever before. So we have a divide in our country today in Gen Z. Men are coming back to Jesus Women are opting out Men want marriage and families More women then ever do not One thing I do know: Scripture says family is a priority. And that makes it a target for satan our enemy. Satan will attack not just the family **but every element of it. Kids, husbands, Wives, young women meant to be wives, young men meant to be husbands. #1 Thing men need to understand about the game of women and marriage. Women love dangerous men… but wait there's more You become unbelievably attractive when you know God, his word, hear his voice and obey. SINNERS IN THE HANDS OF AN ANGRY GOD Arrows in the hands of an angry God! It is in a woman's DNA to want a man of God! Which is why many women do not want a man in todays world… there is a shortage of dangerous men. So how does a young man grow, mature and lean into being a man of God. #1 You will hang with who you hang with Shad Shack and Benny - Don't miss the foundation to their decision: They did it together. David and his mighty men. Jesus had 1 best friend, 3 close friends, 12 solid friends, 72 like minded friends, Jesus sent out the disciples in 12 and 2. Again, don't miss the point - you must have a ride or die crew for Jesus! One of the biggest influences in my life as a young man in High School and my first year out of high school was hanging out with some college and career guys from my church. Tim Kruse, Brian White, Steve Wetzel, Tom Alexander, Sean O'Hearan. I would go down to the UW campus and watch and listen to them preach open air to the college students walking past from classes. They would get mocked, ridiculed and they would also see a lot of kids come to Christ. This group of about 12 guys were unstoppable. #2 Understand you are an instrument of war. Psalm 127:3-5 — "Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one's youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them.” Are you ready to be a man of God? A Father? A Warrior? All men must be willing to prepare to be a warrior who has children they are ready to unleash on the world for God. You may never have kids, but God will most definitely put young men in your life through out your faith walk to help launch into warfare. Are you ready to do that? Notice the Psalm is written from the perspective of the father being the warrior, and his children (particularly sons, in the ancient near-eastern context) being the arrows he shoots into the future — meaning the original picture is about legacy and generational impact, Now lets lip the metaphor — asking "what makes a good arrow, and who has to shoot it" An Arrow Has No Power of Its Own — It Must Be Shaped You can have a razor sharp broad head, a powerful bow… but if the arrow shaft is compromised it will never hit its target. Before an arrow is ever shot, it has to be made: straightened, weighted, fletched. A crooked arrow, however sharp its tip, flies wildly off target no matter how strong the archer is. There has to be disruption, challenge, pain and time. None of those can be skipped in order to be worthy of being in the hand of warrior. Disruption breaks self-reliance. As long as a man's life is running smoothly on his own terms, he has little reason to depend on God. Disruption — losing a job, a relationship falling apart, a plan collapsing — tends to be what exposes how much a man was actually trusting in himself. Moses spent 40 years as a nobody shepherd in the wilderness before God called him; Joseph was sold into slavery and imprisoned unjustly before he was elevated. The disruption wasn't punishment — it was the thing that stripped away what he was leaning on so he'd have to lean on God instead. Challenge builds endurance, and endurance builds character. This is almost verbatim what James 1:2-4 says — trials test faith, and that testing produces perseverance, and perseverance, if you let it finish its work, makes you "perfect and entire, wanting nothing." Romans 5:3-5 says something similar: suffering produces patience, patience produces experience, experience produces hope. The logic isn't "pain is good" — it's that character can't be built without resistance, the same way muscle can't be built without load. Pain refines. Scripture repeatedly uses the image of metal being purified by fire — the heat doesn't destroy the metal, it burns off what doesn't belong (1 Peter 1:6-7, Malachi 3:3). Pain has a way of burning off performance, image management, and comfort-seeking, and revealing what a man actually believes when the stakes are real. Time is what makes it real rather than manufactured. You can't compress spiritual maturity into a weekend. David was anointed king as a boy but spent years as a fugitive before he actually sat on the throne — the anointing came first, but the readiness came from time. Even Jesus, fully God, "learned obedience by the things which he suffered" (Hebrews 5:8) — there's something about lived, tested time that a single moment of decision can't substitute for. What I'd add — a few things that change the picture, not just add to it: Suffering alone doesn't guarantee godliness — the response does. Two men can go through the same disruption; one comes out bitter, hardened, and self-protective, the other comes out humble and more dependent on God. The pain isn't what transforms — how it's met is. Without humility and a willingness to actually submit to God in it, hardship just as often produces cynicism as character. It's not meant to be walked alone. "Iron sharpens iron" (Proverbs 27:17) exists for a reason — a man processing pain in isolation is far more likely to either numb out or spiral than one who has other men actually in it with him. Community isn't an accessory to the formation process, it's usually the difference between suffering that shapes and suffering that just wounds. The Word has to be the anchor, not just the pain. Scripture is what gives suffering meaning and direction instead of just being chaos a man survives. Psalm 1 and Joshua 1:8 both tie a man's fruitfulness to meditating on God's word — the trials do the breaking, but the Word is what rebuilds him toward something rather than just leaving rubble. It's grace, not achievement. This is worth holding carefully — the goal isn't "suffer enough and you'll earn godly character." Galatians 5:22-23 calls maturity "fruit of the Spirit," not fruit of hardship. God does the actual transforming; the trials are the context he often works through, not a formula a man runs to produce holiness on his own effort. So I'd say your instinct is right, but I'd reframe it slightly: it's not disruption, challenge, pain, and time that make a man godly — it's how he responds to those things, in community, anchored to the Word, surrendered to God, over that stretch of time. Take away any of those and the suffering can just as easily harden a man as shape him. Application: The straightening process isn't punishment; it's what makes the difference between an arrow that flies true and one that veers off no matter how hard he's "launched" into life. Scripture tie-in: Proverbs 27:17 — "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." An arrow doesn't sharpen itself; it's sharpened by something harder than itself pressing against it — mentors, fathers, Scripture, correction. 2. An Arrow's Power Comes From the Bow, Not Itself Alex Revells video: waiting for my gun to kill someone… LOL. Straight, precise, sharp, weighted, tested… but powerless with out the weight of the draw behind it. An arrow, no matter how well made, has zero propulsion of its own. All its force comes from tension stored in something else — the archer's drawn bow. Application: A young man's strength for life doesn't originate in himself — it comes from abiding in Christ, the source of real power. Self-reliance is like an arrow trying to launch itself; it goes nowhere. Scripture tie-in: John 15:5 — "Apart from me you can do nothing." There are two parts to this… don't miss it! The garden that was given to the man… run down, falling apart, walls broken down, weeds, overgrowth, birds and animals feces… “You absolutely right… but just between you and me… you should have seen this place when it was just Gods”. 3. An Arrow Must Be Aimed — Direction Matters More Than Speed A powerful shot with no aim is worse than useless — it can actually cause harm. The strength of the draw means nothing if the target is wrong. Targets. White, black, blue, red, gold. The overall target Matt. 6:33 seek ye first the kingdom Each circle is a greater focus in your life. My inner circle is the gospel shared with others Application: Raw ambition, drive, and talent in a young man without godly direction is dangerous, not just wasted — misdirected strength (anger, sexual drive, ambition, competitiveness) becomes destructive rather than fruitful. The question isn't just "how much power do you have," but "what target has your life been aimed at?” Scripture tie-in: Proverbs 4:25-27 — "Let your eyes look straight ahead... do not turn to the right or the left." 1 Corinthians 9:26 — Paul says he doesn't run "aimlessly" or box "beating the air" — deliberate aim, not just effort, is the point. 5. Arrows Are Made For War, Not Display A quiver full of unused, un-shot arrows isn't a blessing; it's wasted potential. What are young men trained for today? Gaming? Porn? Money? Partying? Status? Scripture tie-in: Ephesians 6:12 — "we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against... spiritual forces of evil" — young men are being called into a real, active spiritual battle, not just personal self-improvement. The question isn't whether you have potential — every arrow does. The question is: who's shaping you right now, what's your life aimed at, and are you willing to be trained for the fight you were actually made for?"

Dawgman.com's Kim Grinolds spoke this week with Gopher Gazette's Ryan Burns, who was nice enough to offer his take on this weekend's game in Seattle between Minnesota and WashingtonBurns is expecting a lot of Minnesota fans in the stands at Husky Stadium, for a number of reasons - chief among them being the other Big Ten road trips in October are to Purdue and Indiana.The guys then talk about the P.J. Fleck tenure and expectations going into the 2026 season for the Golden Gophers, especially trying to turn around their fortunes on the road.Turning to the game itself, the 10 pm central time start is the first things they talk about and the problems that poses for the traveling team. Then they talk about Minnesota's quarterback, Drake Lindsey, and Burns compares him to a Washington State signal-caller from decades gone by. He talks about the style of offense the Golden Gophers want to run and the other skill players that help make it tick.Flipping to the other side of the ball, Burns is very curious to see how first-year UW LT Kodi Greene will hold up against a Minnesota defensive line that possesses a ton of talent but did not show up on the road last season. And how will they be able to limit Demond Williams once a play breaks down?Ryan also talks about some of the factors defensively that should concern the Huskies, especially in the secondary. And they also talk about the 'Elinneus Davis' factor where the Minnesota product can't wait to go up against the in-state school. And apparently Minnesota has four commits from Davis's high school (Moorhead).Finally, the guys talk about their keys to the game, both in scenarios where UW wins and where Minnesota is able to pull off a rare away win. Could special teams end up being the difference?
In the second hour, Dave Softy Mahler is joined by Greg Lewis and Mario Bailey for the Husky Honks as the guys look back at the win over Eastern Washington, including the little they learned from the blowout, facing Minnesota next and the weight of their punch, the problematic penalties on defense and new reputation, plus the UW wide receivers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
