Naomi Mourra grew up as a door-knocking Jehovah's Witness but at 21, she realised Doomsday was not upon her, and left the religion for good.But as a child, Naomi Mourra thought she was going to live forever.She was told the end of the world was coming, but she would survive the apocalypse and live in paradise for eternity, because she was special.She spent her youth in Western Sydney, preaching these same beliefs to neighbours, strangers, and classmates because Naomi was raised as a Jehovah's Witness.Now, though, she describes herself as the city's only Lebanese, lesbian, ex-Jehovah's Witness.Naomi says she “woke up”, and it wasn't until she realised Armageddon was not actually coming, that she truly started to live.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris, the Executive Producer was Carmel Rooney.It explores religion, Jehovah's Witnesses, dogma, family, Western Sydney, Armageddon, faith, leaving a religion, culture, sexuality, stand up comedy, lesbian, Lebanese culture, apocalypse, school, education, strangers, freedom, neighbours, strangersTo binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

Psalms 1 & 2 E1 — The Psalms scroll—Israel's ancient hymn book—has deeply shaped the worship and prayers of millions of people over several millennia. The first two psalms work together as a unified introduction to the whole collection. Psalm 1 starts with the phrase “How good is life for the man who…” or in most English translations, “Blessed is the man who…” We then find a list of activities to avoid and an instruction to practice daily Scripture meditation. So how does this way of living lead to “the good life”? And what happens to those who follow it—and to those who don't? In this episode, Jon and Tim start a short series in Psalms 1 and 2 by first meditating on Psalm 1.FULL SHOW NOTESFor chapter-by-chapter summaries, biblical words, referenced Scriptures, and reflection questions, check out the full show notes for this episode.CHAPTERSThe Path of Tragedy (0:00-21:35)Becoming Like a Tree (21:35-40:40)Standing in the Judgment (40:40-1:06:14)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.REFERENCED RESOURCESThe Hebrew Bible: A Translation with Commentary by Robert AlterCheck out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books here.SHOW MUSIC“Growing Season” by Gas Lab & Guillaume Muschalle“New Dae” by El Train & G MillsBibleProject theme song by TENTS SHOW CREDITSProduction of today's episode is by Lindsey Ponder, producer, and Cooper Peltz, managing producer.

Send a textWhen counsel sounds wise but feels like a wound, something's off. We dive into Job's long ache and the chorus of friends who mistake his suffering for proof of hidden sin, then name what their theology misses: compassion, mercy, grace, sovereignty, refinement, and the slow work of sanctification. Together we unpack the “simple math” that still haunts modern faith—suffer equals sinner—and show how a true statement in the wrong context becomes a damaging lie.We walk through Bildad's charge that “the light of the wicked shall be put out,” and examine how outward loss gets misread as God's wrath when it may be the furnace of refining. You'll hear practical guardrails for discernment: test counsel by God's character, notice when scripture is used to accuse rather than heal, and refuse the lure of poetic takedowns that win applause but miss hearts. Real stories surface—church hurt, leaders sowing suspicion, and the pressure of multiple voices agreeing in error—illustrating why numbers don't equal truth and why steadfastness matters when you stand alone.At the core is a pastoral correction: the Holy Spirit does not abandon you when you stumble. We affirm the promise of being sealed until the day of redemption and urge a move away from fear‑based teaching toward grace‑formed resilience. If you've ever been judged by your circumstances, questioned by your friends, or tempted to confuse God with the failures of His people, this conversation offers clarity, courage, and a tether back to Christ. Listen, share with a friend who needs gentleness, and leave a review to help more weary hearts find a wiser, kinder way.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

Send a textWhat if the way we talk about salvation quietly turns grace into a paycheck and the Holy Spirit into a tenant who can move out without notice? We take that claim head-on, tracing the logic that says God elects based on foreseen faith and showing why it collapses into a gospel of wages. If God chooses you because of what you will do, grace becomes debt. And if the Spirit is God, He does not indwell in error and depart in regret. Assurance isn't spiritual arrogance; it is the fruit of God's promise to finish what He starts.From there we step into Job 18 and sit with Bildad's accusation. Yes, schemes often snare the schemer—Haman's gallows make the point—but Job isn't Haman. His suffering unfolds under heaven's hidden counsel, opposed by Satan and permitted by God for purposes no friend could see. We explore how true statements become false when ripped from context, and how theology without compassion wounds the people we mean to help. The result is a call to discernment: hold fast to doctrine, but let love set the tone and timing.Along the way, our panel shares candid reflections on humility, new faith, and the ache of unmet vocational hopes. We pray for better work, steadier courage, and a posture that resists the scribes' trap—expert words without a shepherd's heart. We connect Job's integrity to the greater pattern seen at the cross: what looks like defeat can be providence at work. If your story feels misread or your trial feels endless, let this conversation ground you in the God who seals by His Spirit and keeps by His grace.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who's wrestling with assurance, and leave a review so others can find these conversations.

Send a textPain invites explanations, and sometimes the neatest ones hurt the most. We open Job 18 and meet Bildad at full volume—certain that suffering equals secret sin, ready to force a verdict from proverbs and tradition. His words are sharp, his tone is clinical, and his confidence feels familiar to anyone who has been judged by their scars. We read the passage closely, unpack the imagery of nets, fading light, and collapsing strength, and ask a crucial question: when is a true principle misapplied so badly that it becomes untrue in practice?As we move through the chapter, we confront the engine of retribution theology: a tidy moral equation that leaves no room for mystery, timing, or divine sovereignty. Job's integrity and grief collide with Bildad's impatience, and the result is spiritual gaslighting—every denial becomes proof of guilt. We talk about the danger of quoting wisdom literature like case law, the limits of pattern-based counsel, and the irony of calling someone's words empty while delivering clichés with a hard edge. Along the way, we draw modern parallels to online certainty, church arguments, and the temptation to protect our worldview by blaming the broken.What emerges is a better way to walk with the wounded. Wisdom listens before it labels. It distinguishes patterns from promises, truth from timing, and justice from mechanistic payback. We explore how empathy, humility, and careful use of Scripture can turn counsel into comfort, and why God's purposes often run deeper than our systems can grasp. If you've ever been on either side of bad advice—giving it or receiving it—this conversation offers a path to counsel that is honest, patient, and merciful.If this study challenged your thinking or encouraged your faith, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs gentler counsel, and leave a review so more people can find the conversation.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

Send a textWhat if the math we use to explain suffering is wrong from the start? We dive into the charged exchange between Job and Bildad, where retribution theology crashes into radical integrity. Bildad leans on a rigid equation—good people prosper, bad people hurt—while Job stands before God convinced he must not lie, even under the weight of loss. From that tension spring questions that cut close to home: Are we quick to label storms as punishment? Do we confuse tidy systems with true wisdom? And what happens to friendship when counsel is refused?We walk through the layers—envy hidden under piety, dignity bruised by rejection, and the subtle fear of being “counted as beasts” when a once-honored voice pushes back. The group draws a vivid line between knowing of God and actually knowing God. Along the way, creation itself becomes a witness: rocks ready to cry out, a donkey that once spoke, beasts who “teach” when people refuse to listen. These signs unsettle the spreadsheet faith that Bildad defends and invite us to reimagine suffering as a forge rather than a verdict.Together we explore how love, mercy, and divine patience reshape our view of justice. Instead of a mechanical God who pays out rewards and penalties on cue, we see sovereign wisdom at work—testing that produces patience, refinement that deepens character, sanctification that burns away pride. Job's integrity becomes a guide for anyone mocked for trusting God when deliverance is not yet visible. If you've ever felt the sting of well-meaning advice that misses your heart, or wrestled with the gap between tidy answers and a holy mystery, this conversation offers sturdy hope anchored in grace. If it challenged your assumptions or encouraged your faith, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review so others can find it too.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

In this Jewish Inspiration Podcast episode (Day 130), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues the Gate of Flattery (Chanufa) from Orchos Tzaddikim, detailing the profound dangers of associating with or validating the wicked (resha'im), even without direct praise.Key teachings:Befriending the wicked is flattery — Associating with evildoers implies acceptance (“I'm okay with you as you are”) and gives them validation. It's itself an act of chanufa.Five major dangers of such association: You love someone who hates the Creator—contradicting loyalty to Hashem.You absorb their negative ways (inevitable influence).Others see your friendship and think “if he's friends with him, it's okay for me too”—spreading the rot.Even if they don't imitate, they become accustomed to seeing forbidden things.You fail to protest/reprimand when able—making you accountable for their sins (mitzvas tochacha).Reprimand only when accepted — If they won't listen, don't speak (avoids lashon hara and escalation). Instead, pray for their improvement.Personal story — A woman was deeply hurt by another's nasty comment in class. Rabbi advised praying for the offender's insight rather than confrontation. A week later, she returned transformed—now loving the person and praying for their growth, turning pain into an opportunity for elevation.Becoming “big” (gadol) — True greatness means expanding beyond self: responsibility for spouse, children, community, Klal Yisrael. Start small (self-improvement), then influence outward. Rabbi Saul Salanter's journey: couldn't change the world → country → town → neighborhood → family → only self.Practical application — Don't compare or compete; maximize your unique gifts. Patience and kindness (e.g., not honking in traffic) reflect self-respect and prevent spiritual “bankruptcy.” Small acts of restraint build character and influence others positively.The rabbi urges: begin at home, expand responsibility outward, and live with self-awareness—true greatness is selflessness and influence through example, not ego._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on January 5, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on February 20, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

Poet, playwright and curator Inua Ellams and film critic Hanna Flint join Tom Sutcliffe for this week's reviews. Riding high after the huge success of the Wicked films, actor Cynthia Erivo returns to the London stage for a one-woman production of Bram Stoker's Dracula, in which she plays all the parts. Last summer was dubbed 'brat summer' by the press, with the word 'brat' entering the dictionary as an adjective - all in response to the pop album Brat by singer Charli XCX. In a new mockumentary, The Moment, Charli considers how to follow up on Brat, and how to deal with fame. And Kleber Mendonça Filho's new film The Secret Agent follows a man caught in the turmoil of the Brazilian military dictatorship. With four Oscar nominations and two BAFTA nominations, it's widely tipped to be one of the big winners in this year's awards season. Plus authors Hallie Rubenhold and Jason Sanford tell Tom about a new and troubling marketing scam aimed at authors which promise good reviews and then resort to threats when authors do not respond.Producer: Tim Bano

In this moving episode of the Slight Shift Show, Chris and Angela discuss the power of "slight shifts" in the face of life's greatest challenges. Angela shares her journey from a humble, hardworking upbringing to a high-flying career that was suddenly derailed by a life-threatening medical emergency at age 29. Her story is a testament to the idea that life doesn't happen to us, but for us, provided we have the determination to pivot. Key Discussion Points The Power of Determination: Angela reflects on watching her father work three jobs and jump-start his car at 3 a.m., instilling in her a "figure it out" mentality where failure isn't an option. The Moment Life Shifted: At 29, Angela went from planning to see the musical Wicked to being airlifted because of a major medical emergency. Perspective in the Storm: Even while being prepped for emergency surgery, Angela chose to focus on the beauty of the sun hitting the Niagara River, a "slight shift" in focus that kept fear at bay. The Long Road Back: After a massive brain clot and losing the ability to walk and talk, it took eleven months just to return to work for one hour a week. Living with Gratitude: Angela and the host discuss how "multi-dimensional success" comes from appreciation and the realization that no one ever regrets being too happy. "What you plant is what will grow. If you plant fear and negativity, that's what will compound. I chose to plant calmness." — Angela.

Guest: Dr. Alexander Gates, Rutgers University - NewarkWeather doesn't just shape our daily plans — sometimes, it shapes the course of history. From floods that altered empires to storms that changed the outcome of wars, extreme weather has quietly (and sometimes violently) rewritten the human story. Today, we're joined by Dr. Alexander Gates, professor at Rutgers University–Newark and author of the upcoming book Wicked Weather. In it, he explores the natural disasters that didn't just make headlines, but changed societies, politics, and the world as we know it. In this episode, we'll talk about the historical storms, droughts, and disasters that left lasting marks on civilization, what those events teach us about risk and resilience, and why understanding the past may be one of our best tools for preparing for the future.Chapters00:00 - Introduction: Weather's historical influence on civilizations00:32 - Dr. Gates' background & inspiration for Wicked Weather01:06 - How natural disasters shape human societies03:29 - The significance of weather-related events like hurricanes, volcanoes, and earthquakes06:37 - Most impactful natural disasters in history07:30 - Volcanoes from 536-540 AD changing the global climate09:24 - The hurricane that helped end the American Revolution11:06 - Human decisions impacting disaster resilience11:40 - Break 111:42 - Building resilience: lessons from historical events13:19 - Climate change's role in intensifying weather extremes16:16 - Lessons from historical weather disasters on modern emergency preparedness17:37 - How different types of disasters prompt societal change20:44 - Responses to weather-related disasters in different countries23:31 - Break 223:33 - The importance of societal response and adaptation28:04 - The science behind storms and the importance of understanding natural causes29:28 - Final reflections: societal resilience and future preparednessSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this Jewish Inspiration Podcast episode (Day 129), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues the Gate of Flattery (Chanufa) from Orchos Tzaddikim, focusing on the third major aspect: praising or commending the wicked (reshayim) in their presence or before others—even indirectly.Key teachings:Praising the wicked — Saying “he's a good person,” “he's pleasant,” or highlighting minor good deeds—even without justifying their evil—is forbidden. It risks elevating them undeservedly and creating stumbling blocks.Consequences — The wicked feel validated (“I'm really a good guy”), double down on evil, and become more entrenched. Others may honor them, envy their “success,” imitate them, or lose respect for true tzaddikim (righteous people).Honoring tzaddikim — When the righteous are exalted, people heed their counsel, envy their good deeds, and grow in Torah/yiras shamayim (fear of heaven).

In this Jewish Inspiration Podcast episode (Day 129), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues the Gate of Flattery (Chanufa) from Orchos Tzaddikim, focusing on the third major aspect: praising or commending the wicked (reshayim) in their presence or before others—even indirectly.Key teachings:Praising the wicked — Saying “he's a good person,” “he's pleasant,” or highlighting minor good deeds—even without justifying their evil—is forbidden. It risks elevating them undeservedly and creating stumbling blocks.Consequences — The wicked feel validated (“I'm really a good guy”), double down on evil, and become more entrenched. Others may honor them, envy their “success,” imitate them, or lose respect for true tzaddikim (righteous people).Honoring tzaddikim — When the righteous are exalted, people heed their counsel, envy their good deeds, and grow in Torah/yiras shamayim (fear of heaven). This aligns with Hashem's intent in creation.Practical warning — Avoid praising the wicked unless also mentioning their evil (to maintain balance and truth). Even neutral/positive comments can lead to misplaced honor and spiritual damage.Broader impact — Flattery of resha'im desecrates Torah/divine service. The soul yearns for closeness to Hashem—praising evil distances us from that.The rabbi ties this to current events (e.g., evil regimes collapsing) and emphasizes aligning with Hashem's values: honor the righteous, distance from flattery, and bring God-consciousness through truthful speech and actions._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on January 5, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on February 18, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

Don't Envy The Wicked

Proverbs 21:7–8 contrasts the self-destructive nature of wickedness with the clarity of a pure life. The violence of the wicked drags them down because they refuse to act justly, while the path of the guilty is twisted and unstable. In contrast, the conduct of the pure is upright and transparent before God. In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart examine how injustice ultimately consumes those who practice it, why moral crookedness leads to collapse, and how walking in purity keeps one's path straight and secure.

We sit with Jeffery Feczko, owner and guide of To The Gills in Baja California Sur, Mexico. From fly tying at a young age to guiding fisheries across the globe, Jeffery has built a life shaped by travel, salt, and fish. His twenties took him from Alaska, earning his 100-ton USCG Master Captain's license, to destinations like the Seychelles, where guiding iconic atolls eventually led to burnout and a realization that living in waders year-round wasn't the life he wanted. Drawn back to warm water and shore-based fishing, he went to Baja California Sur, where he now guides year-round in one of the most diverse and demanding fisheries on the planet. In this episode, we talk about why Baja stands above everywhere else he's fished - the people, culture, food, and the mighty, mighty roosterfish.  GO FISHING WITH JEFFERY: https://tothegills.net/ Follow Jeffery on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tothegills/?hl=en  Find his WICKED flies: https://farbank.com/collections/rio-signature-tyer-jeffrey-feczko  ----- HOW TO HELP SO FLY: Please go leave us a review on APPLE PODCASTS.

Jim and Eric kick things off with breaking news from Universal's Fan Fest - yes, there are now multiple colored Yoshis roaming around. From there, they dig into Universal's bold Mummy 4 release date, Wicked's Peacock debut, Mardi Gras madness in Orlando, and that Epic Universe Super Bowl ad that's clearly aimed at changing everything. Then in the back half, Jim dives into the surprisingly complicated history of The Land Before Time - from Spielberg's creative notes to 14 installments and those rare Littlefoot walk-around characters at Universal Studios Hollywood. NEWS • Mummy 4 gets a prime summer release date - Universal slots the Brendan Fraser-led sequel for May 19, 2028, signaling major confidence in the franchise's return. • Wicked heads to Peacock - Universal's Broadway juggernaut begins streaming March 20, keeping the contractual Wicked mention streak alive. • Universal Mardi Gras 2026 begins - Over 40 international food booths, live concerts, and the debut of Prince Gator at Universal Orlando. • Volcano Bay goes cashless - Starting February 25, the water park transitions to card-only transactions. • Epic Universe Super Bowl commercial - A sibling rivalry story spotlights Stardust Racers and positions Universal Orlando as a multi-day destination experience. FEATURE • The Land Before Time's surprising origin story - How Steven Spielberg partnered with Don Bluth after The Secret of NIMH and reshaped a dinosaur tale to be less terrifying for kids. • Scenes cut for being “too scary” - Nearly 10 minutes were removed before the 1988 theatrical release of The Land Before Time. • From theatrical hit to direct-to-video empire - Universal ultimately produced 14 installments, with the final entry arriving in 2016. • Rare Universal Studios walk-around characters - Littlefoot and Sarah once appeared in the parks - and Jim wants proof from listeners who remember them.

Today’s Bible Verse: “But as for me, my feet had almost slipped; I had nearly lost my foothold.” — Psalm 73:2 Psalm 73:2 captures a vulnerable confession. The psalmist admits he nearly stumbled in his faith. Doubt, comparison, and discouragement had shaken his footing. This verse reminds us that even strong believers can experience seasons where stability feels uncertain. “Want to listen without ads?

In this Jewish Inspiration Podcast episode (Day 126), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues the Gate of Truth (Sha'ar HaEmes) from Orchos Tzaddikim, stressing that truth is the core of God, the soul, and Jewish destiny in exile. Key teachings:Prolonged exile due to sins — Current long exile stems from Jewish sins; we must separate from worldly vanities and cling to Hashem's seal—truth.Sanctify through truth — Abstain even from permissible things to avoid any trace of falsehood (97% truth = 100% false); never lie or mislead Jew or Gentile in any matter.Exile for converts — Hashem scattered Jews among nations to add gerim (converts); honest dealings inspire non-Jews to join (Midrash: “I will sow her for Myself in the land” = exile brings converts).Return stolen items — Stories of Rabbi Shimon ben Shetach returning a precious stone in a donkey purchase, and sages returning money found in wheat—Gentiles proclaimed “Blessed is the God of the Jews.” Sanctification of God's Name through honesty.Reward of truth — Truth sprouts from earth; righteousness looks down from heaven (Psalms 85:12). Truthful living glorifies Hashem and draws divine favor.Wicked rewarded in this world — Hashem pays wicked for minor merits now to destroy them eternally (Deuteronomy); better for righteous to suffer briefly here and receive eternal reward in Olam Haba.Practical application — Cling to truth in all dealings; exile teaches separation from falsehood and reliance on Hashem alone.The rabbi reflects on modern parallels (antisemitism, unity in crises like Nachshon Waxman) and urges living truthfully to hasten redemption—Moshiach comes when truth prevails. Ends previewing next trait: flattery (chanufa)._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on September 1, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on February 15, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.
