Podcasts about Wisdom

Fr. Mike points out how advice from books like Proverbs and Sirach may not apply perfectly to every situation, but are meant to help guide us towards wisdom. He also highlights a piece from Sirach that encourages us to avoid "deserted places"—calling us not only to stay away from sin, but to stay away from what leads us to sin. The readings are 1 Maccabees 3, Sirach 7-9, and Proverbs 22:5-8. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

Talk To As Many People As Possible EVERY. SINGLE. DAY

Stephanie presents a heartfelt reflection on how Christians are called to respond to today's challenging cultural landscape. She offers both a personal confession and a rallying cry, urging believers to re-center their lives on Christ and to actively engage with the world from a biblical foundation. Stephanie begins by clarifying the podcast's aim: Gospel Spice is not about political commentary or deciphering world events, but about grounding listeners in the timeless truth of Scripture and seeking Jesus on every page. She emphasizes a deeply Christological approach—fixing our eyes on Jesus as revealed throughout the Bible and learning how to live in His likeness. Acknowledging recent global and societal upheavals, Stephanie shares her personal struggles with understanding “the times.” She admits to the temptation of silence to avoid conflict, but recognizes this as spiritual cowardice. She confesses her reluctance to speak boldly in the past and asks forgiveness for failing to set a courageous example. One month to the day after the murder of Charlie Kirk, Stephanie notes the growing chasm and polarization she witnesses online and offline. Rather than succumbing to either despair or division, she calls Christians to ask: “What would the Lord have me do?” The answer is rooted in Scripture, humility, and prayer—equipping ourselves to discern and respond with Christlike wisdom. Drawing from her own life—Her journey from atheism, her experience as a legal immigrant in the US, and her years living in a Muslim country—Stephanie unpacks three ideological battlegrounds facing Western Christians today, following the thoughts Os Guinness shared last week on Gospel Spice: Cultural Marxism: ideologies rooted in atheism and humanism have evolved from economic Marxism to newer cultural forms, where identity and power dynamics overshadow biblical truth.  The Importance of Lawful Citizenship: Sharing her and her husband's story of legal immigration, Stephanie underscores biblical obedience to governmental laws unless they directly contradict God's commands.  Radical Extremism: Reflecting on her time in North Africa, she distinguishes between ordinary Muslims and radical ideologues, warning that even small minorities bent on evil can shape history, as seen in 20th century tragedies. Stephanie issues a stirring challenge: If a 15% minority, committed to evil or error, can transform societies, what could God do with a dedicated 15% of Christians boldly living out their faith? She calls listeners to be part of that faithful remnant—praying, embodying Christ's truth and love, and reaching out in kindness. Stephanie points to prayer as the most powerful tool available to believers, even announcing the latest Gospel Spice prayer course as a resource (with proceeds going to anti-trafficking ministries). Go to gospelspice.com/prayer for more. If you cannot afford to pay the full price of the course, use coupon code PRAYER50 for 50% off. If you can afford to, please consider making a donation to help others get the course for less, and to support victims of human trafficking. Also, Stephanie encourages listeners to anonymously practice kindness, share the gospel, and avoid the distractions of political rage or the pursuit of comfort. Stephanie closes with a prayer for boldness, discernment, and repentance. She urges each listener to resist complacency, embrace spiritual battle with wisdom and humility, and to become agents of change and hope in the world—“the 15%” who make a difference for Christ. Reflection: How can you daily center your life on Christ, courageously discern the times, and practice prayerful kindness, becoming part of the 15% who bring light and transformation to your community?

This episode was recorded at Lake Austin Spa Resort with a live audience for their "Wise Women" Month.Grace Young is a three-time James Beard Award–winning cookbook author, culinary historian, and community advocate with numerous accolades and awards. Known for her cookbooks Wisdom of the Chinese Kitchen and Stir-Frying to the Sky's Edge, Grace spent decades preserving Chinese culinary traditions. But in 2020, everything changed.When the pandemic hit, Grace walked through Manhattan's Chinatown and found a community in crisis. Shops were empty, restaurants were closing, and lives were being upended by fear and misinformation. Without any activist background, Grace stepped forward—using her voice and storytelling skills to raise awareness and rally support. That spontaneous act of courage evolved into a nationwide movement to save America's Chinatowns, earning her the Julia Child Award, the James Beard Foundation's Humanitarian of the Year Award, and recognition as one of Forbes 50 Over 50.In this conversation, recorded live at Lake Austin Spa Resort for Wise Women Month, Grace shares the profound lessons she's learned about wisdom, community, and rediscovering purpose later in life. We talk about her activism journey, how she redefined her calling in her 60s, and why connection—and showing up for one another—is the truest form of wisdom. In This EpisodeThe moment Grace realized she had to speak up for ChinatownHow preservation became her life's mission—from recipes to communityWhat her parents' traditions taught her about longevity and healthThe connection between wisdom, food, and sustainabilityWhy mom-and-pop shops are the soul of AmericaHow she overcame fear, found purpose, and redefined strengthPractical wisdom for finding purpose at any ageLearn more:graceyoung.comhttps://linktr.ee/stirfryguruhttps://www.instagram.com/stirfryguru/______Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Find Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageSky Rock Sedona: https://www.skyrocksedona.com/20% Discount Link:https://www.marriott.com/event-reservations/reservation-link.mi?id=1759866624184&key=CORP&app=resvlinkAll links: ⁠⁠⁠amyedwards.info⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@realamyedwards⁠⁠⁠Fight For Her: ⁠⁠⁠fightforher.net⁠⁠⁠TikTok:⁠⁠⁠ @themagicbabe⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠YouTube Channel⁠⁠⁠Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠The Amy Edwards Show Podcast⁠⁠⁠Free Course:⁠⁠⁠ The Ageless Mindset⁠⁠⁠Full Course: ⁠⁠⁠The Youthfulness Hack⁠⁠⁠Work with Amy:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book a Call⁠⁠⁠ Let's get you to your HAPPIEST and most RADIANT!

What's the goal of your life? Many of us pursue success, comfort, or recognition—striving for the “summit” of achievement. But Solomon, the wealthiest and wisest king of Israel, reminds us that these goals can leave us empty and vulnerable, like climbers who collapse after reaching the top of the mountain but never make it safely home. In this episode of Wisdom for the Heart, Stephen Davey takes us through Ecclesiastes 6:10–13, where Solomon reflects on the futility of chasing the wrong goals and urges us to remember three life-changing truths. First, everything in our past has unfolded under the authority of our Creator. Second, everything in our present is shaped by God's sovereign care—even when we don't understand it. And third, everything in our future rests in His infinite wisdom and perfect plan. Through Scripture and practical illustrations, Stephen shows how we can trust God with our past, walk with Him in the present, and prepare for eternity with confidence. The real question isn't whether you'll make it to the “summit” of life's goals, but whether you'll make it safely home. Stephen Davey's newest book, The Disciples Prayer, is available now. https://www.wisdomonline.org/store/view/the-disciples-prayer-hardback

In this episode of the Thinking Talmudist Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe discusses a passage from Tractate Baba Metzia 83b, focusing on an aggadic narrative about Rabbi Elazar, son of Rabbi Shimon, and a Talmudic exposition of Psalms 104:20. The episode explores themes of divine justice, human sensitivity, and the role of punishment in Jewish law, using a story about Rabbi Elazar's tenure as a marshal arresting thieves. Key points include:Talmudic Exposition (Psalms 104:20): Rabbi Yosef (or a braisa) interprets “You make darkness, and it is night, in it every forest beast stirs” as this world being like night, where the wicked roam like beasts without immediate retribution. The righteous receive punishment in this world to preserve their reward in the “day” of the world to come, where clarity prevails. This world is for action (mitzvahs), as one cannot perform deeds like charity after death.Rabbi Elazar's Story: Rabbi Elazar, appointed by the king to arrest thieves, is questioned by Rabbi Yeshua ben Korcha for handing over Jews to execution, earning the rebuke “vinegar, son of wine” (implying he's a lesser version of his father, Rabbi Shimon). Elazar defends himself, claiming he removes “thorns from the vineyard” (evil from Israel), but is told the vineyard's owner (God) should handle it. He advises the marshal to identify thieves by observing who drinks and dozes at the fourth hour (10 AM), ruling out scholars, laborers, or quiet craftsmen. Appointed to enforce this method, Elazar arrests a disrespectful laundryman who calls him “vinegar, son of wine.” The laundryman is executed, causing Elazar distress, but it's revealed he deserved it for a capital offense (cohabitating with a betrothed woman on Yom Kippur). Elazar's relief is confirmed when his surgically removed fat doesn't rot, symbolizing his righteousness (Psalms 16:9).Sensitivity in Punishment: Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes the sages' sensitivity, even when enforcing justice. Elazar's remorse, despite the laundryman's guilt, reflects this, as does a surgical test to confirm his integrity. Rabbi Wolbe contrasts this with modern prosecutors' lack of introspection, urging sensitivity even when enforcing laws (e.g., deporting illegal immigrants). He shares his grandfather's teaching against hasty punishment, especially with children, advocating apologies and reflection to avoid harm, as punishment should be a last resort.Additional Narrative: The Talmud digresses to discuss Rabbi Elazar and Rabbi Yishmael's obesity, addressing a noblewoman's claim that their size prevented them from having children. Their responses defend their ability, showing concern for their children's legitimacy, not personal pride. The Talmud compares sages' physical attributes humorously, emphasizing their humanity.Broader Message: The episode underscores that divine justice operates providentially (e.g., the laundryman's execution), but human enforcers must act with sensitivity, reflecting on potential errors. Rabbi Wolbe connects this to parenting and societal laws, advocating a balance between the letter and spirit of the law, and highlights that this world's “night” is for action, not just punishment.The episode concludes with a preview of next week's discussion on Baba Metzia 84a about the beauty of Jerusalem's people and a call to share Torah content._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses. In this podcast you will experience the refreshing and eye-opening teachings while gaining an amazing appreciation for the divine wisdom of the Torah and the depths of the Talmud._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by David & Susan MarbinRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios to a live audience on July 25, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on October 10, 2025_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thinking-talmudist-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1648951154Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0cZ7q9bGYSBYSPQfJvwgzmShare 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:Help us share Jewish wisdom globally by sponsoring an episode at torchweb.org.

This post is public so feel free to share it.Chapters(00:00:02) - Finding Strength After Abuse (11 Minutes)This chapter introduces Stacy Peasall, a survivor of sexual abuse and domestic violence, who now works as a faith-based women's relationship coach. We explore Stacy's journey from being an 18-year-old, eager to pursue a career in fashion, to becoming a victim due to naivety and misplaced trust in older individuals. Stacy reflects on the societal norms that discouraged her from listening to her intuition, leading to traumatic experiences. She discusses the transformative moment when she finally trusted her inner voice, recognizing her sensitivity and empathetic nature as strengths rather than weaknesses. Additionally, Stacy is part of a collaborative project called "Breaking the Silence: Voices of Survivors," where she contributes her story to inspire others. Through her work, Stacy empowers women to reclaim their voices and embrace their inner strength.(00:10:58) - Breaking the Silence on Abuse (16 Minutes)This chapter explores the transformative journey of reclaiming personal power and self-esteem by moving beyond a victim mentality and taking personal responsibility. Through personal development and growth, I emphasize the importance of setting healthy boundaries and effective communication without losing one's true self. The conversation highlights the creation of the Wise Woman Community, inspired by Proverbs 14:1, as a supportive space for women to connect and share experiences. By breaking the silence around abuse and understanding the detrimental effects of unhealed trauma, we underscore the necessity of healing and building a strong spiritual foundation. This foundation, in turn, enables individuals to attract and maintain healthy relationships.(00:27:11) - Manifesting a Healthy Relationship (1 Minutes)This chapter explores the journey towards a fulfilling marriage by emphasizing the importance of personal growth and spiritual connection. We discuss the idea of not giving up on marriage and the significance of staying committed until the end. A guest shares her personal story of how, after working on herself and strengthening her vertical connection with her faith, she was able to attract a loving and respectful partner who shares her Christian values. We highlight the miracle and blessing of such a relationship, acknowledging that it requires both partners to have strong individual connections with their faith, which in turn solidifies their horizontal relationship. The conversation concludes with expressions of gratitude and acknowledgment of the hard work that goes into achieving such a rewarding partnership.KeywordsAbuse, Empowerment, Survivor, Relationships, Faith, Boundaries, Communication, Personal Growth, Spiritual Connection, Healing, Trauma, Marriage, Commitment, Christian Values, Gratitude, Resilience, Strength, Intuition, Sensitivity, Wise Woman CommunityGemma's Gem is a reader-supported publication.

What are you chasing? A bigger paycheck, a better title, or a new relationship? The world tells us that satisfaction is just one step away—if we can grab the next carrot, we'll finally be happy. But Ecclesiastes 6:7–9 tells a very different story. Solomon, the wealthiest and wisest king of his day, warns that you can have a full life on the outside while remaining desperately empty inside. In this episode of Wisdom for the Heart, Stephen Davey walks us through Solomon's three warnings: a busy life does not equal a fulfilled heart, improving your station does not guarantee true success, and there will always be something else just out of reach. Chasing after “more” not only distracts us from what matters most, it blinds us to the blessings God has already given. The answer isn't to stop working hard or dreaming big. Instead, it's to anchor our joy in Christ rather than in our achievements. Only when we see life as a gift from God and find our meaning in Him will we stop chasing carrots that never satisfy. If you've ever felt restless, disappointed, or unsatisfied no matter what you accomplish, this message is for you. Discover how to trade distraction for peace and emptiness for purpose—by finding contentment in Christ alone. Stephen Davey's newest book, The Disciples Prayer, is available now. https://www.wisdomonline.org/store/view/the-disciples-prayer-hardback

From bipartisan cooperation to prayerful gratitude, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand joins Drew Collins to reflect on joy, wisdom, and love of enemy in a divided nation—offering a vision of public service grounded in the way of Jesus.“Jesus defied expectations—he welcomed the stranger, he fed the hungry, he loved his enemies.”Together they discuss the role of faith in public life amid deep division. Reflecting on Jesus's call to love our enemies and the Apostle Paul's exhortation to “rejoice always,” she describes how Scripture, prayer, and gratitude sustain her work in the U.S. Senate.From bipartisan collaboration to the challenges of resisting an authoritarian executive branch, Gillibrand speaks candidly about the challenges of embodying gentleness and compassion in politics, consistently seeking spiritual solidarity with colleagues across the aisle. Drawing on Philippians 4, she testifies to the peace of God that transcends understanding, revealing a vision of political life animated by faith, courage, and joy—all in the spirit of hope, humility, and the enduring call to love in public service.Episode Highlights“Faith is the greatest gift you could have. It grounds me; it reminds me why I'm here and what my life is supposed to be about.”“We can disagree about public policy, but we don't have to be in disagreement as people.”“Jesus defied expectations—he welcomed the stranger, he fed the hungry, he loved his enemies.”“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again, rejoice… let your gentleness be evident to all.”“I pray for wisdom every day. Scripture tells us if you ask for it, you will receive it—and boy do I need it.”About Kirsten GillibrandKirsten Gillibrand is the U.S. Senator from New York, serving since 2009.

In this episode of the Prayer Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe discusses the fifth chapter of Tractate Zevachim, recited daily in the morning prayers as part of the korbanot section, aligning with the Daf Yomi cycle starting October 8, 2025. He emphasizes the spiritual and practical significance of studying the offerings, which substitute for actual temple sacrifices, and their role in fulfilling the mitzvah of daily Torah, Mishnah, and Talmud study. The episode connects the offerings to prayer, personal transformation, and the Jewish mission. Key points include:Purpose of Studying Korbanot: Reciting the verses (Torah), Mishnah (Zevachim, Chapter 5), and Brisa of Rabbi Yishmael (Talmud, planned for next week) before prayers fulfills the mitzvah of daily study, even for busy professionals. This ensures spiritual connection before engaging in prayer, as studying offerings is akin to bringing them (1:15–2:23).Written vs. Oral Torah: The Written Torah (Tanakh: Torah, Nevi'im, Ketuvim) outlines what to do (e.g., mezuzah, shechita), but lacks how-to details. The Oral Torah (Mishnah, Talmud, Midrash, Kabbalah), compiled by Rabbeinu HaKadosh into six orders, decodes these instructions, transmitted from Moshe at Sinai. Rabbi Wolbe recounts helping his attorney friend understand that Moshe wrote the Torah per Hashem's command, citing Numbers 9:23 and the small aleph in Vayikra (Leviticus 1:1) as evidence of Moshe's humility (2:23–11:25).Zevachim, Chapter 5's Uniqueness: This chapter, titled “Eizehu Mekoman” (What is their place?), is unique as the only Mishnah chapter without disputes, reflecting unity and clarity in the laws of where offerings are brought in the temple. This unity mirrors the Kohen's requirement to be at peace with others to serve, emphasizing communal harmony (13:37–14:40, 24:51–26:01).Types of Offerings:Communal Offerings: The Tamid (daily morning and evening) and Musaf (on Shabbat, Rosh Chodesh, holidays like Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot) represent collective devotion.Individual Offerings: Include Olah (burnt, symbolizing complete devotion), Shlamim (peace, elevating physicality), Pesach, firstborn, tithe, thanksgiving, and Chagigah. Each addresses a spiritual need, like the Olah atoning for forbidden thoughts (18:37–19:21, 28:22–29:29).Prayer as a Substitute for Offerings: Rav Schwab explains that the Amidah parallels the Olah: stripping physicality (hafshet, like skinning), approaching with a broken heart (nituach, like cutting), and praying with fiery enthusiasm (kolil l'ishim, like burning). This transforms prayer into a spiritual offering, connecting the soul to Hashem (29:29–33:16).Spiritual Insights:Dignity in Eating: Rabbi Wolbe cites the Talmud's comparison of eating in the marketplace to a dog, urging dignified eating (e.g., using utensils, not hands) to elevate the physical, as in the Shlamim offering (22:04–23:55).Jewish Privilege and Responsibility: Responding to his son's reluctance to attend yeshiva, Rabbi Wolbe highlights the privilege of being among the few Jewish boys studying Torah, despite antisemitism. He notes that hatred (sinah) descended with Sinai, but being chosen demands humility and shining as a light to the world (33:16–37:00).Prayer and Temple Restoration: The phrase “Eizehu Mekoman” evokes longing for the temple, paired with a prayer for its speedy rebuilding. Prayer is most effective after “feeding” Hashem with offerings, akin to Esther's feast strategy (40:44–41:30)._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Dr. Leonard & June GoldbergDownload the Prayer Podcast Worksheets:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iBVevW1ydyjSeyeO0iCcina7e8vix3Lt?usp=sharingThis episode (Ep. #37) of the Prayer Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Dr. Leonard & June Goldberg!

In this episode of the Everyday Judaism Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe concludes the discussion of Siman 26 of the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, covering halachot 14–22 of the mourner's Kaddish, completing the first book of the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch. He emphasizes the spiritual significance of Kaddish in elevating the deceased's soul by declaring Hashem's oneness, while noting that modern practice of all mourners reciting Kaddish together reduces the relevance of precedence rules but underscores communal unity. Key points include:Recap of Kaddish's Purpose: Kaddish, recited by descendants, elevates the deceased's soul, as per Midrashic stories, by glorifying Hashem's name. The mourning stages—shiva (7 days, most intense), shloshim (30 days), the first year, and yahrtzeit (annual anniversary)—dictate Kaddish priorities, with shiva mourners taking precedence.Halacha 14–15 (Chazan Priorities): Leading prayers as chazan provides greater merit for the deceased than Kaddish alone, originally instituted for minors unable to lead. Shiva or shloshim mourners have precedence in leading services, except on Shabbos/Yom Tov unless they were the regular chazan. If two equally entitled mourners are capable chazans, they cast lots, splitting the service (one leads until Ashrei, the other from Ashrei onward). A chazan doesn't forfeit Kaddish rights but should yield to minors or less capable mourners.Halacha 16–18 (Multiple Mourners): Mourning for both parents on the same day doesn't grant extra Kaddish rights; one Kaddish covers both. Kaddish is recited for 11 months, not 12, to avoid implying the deceased was a great sinner (judged for 12 months in Gehenna). Counting starts from burial, not death, with adjustments for leap years (e.g., stopping on the 9th of Kislev). Rabbi Wolbe shares his grandfather's request for 12-month Kaddish, approved by Rabbi Elyashiv, reflecting humility, and notes his grandfather's rejection of eulogies to avoid exaggerated claims, as eulogies are scrutinized in heaven.Halacha 19–21 (Community and Women): If no parental mourners are present, someone who previously lost parents recites Kaddish for all deceased Jews. Other relatives (e.g., grandparents, siblings without children) may recite Kaddish if permitted by parental mourners. Women typically don't recite Kaddish in synagogue but can do so in a home minyan, ideally with others. A yahrtzeit observer unable to recite Kaddish (e.g., while traveling) can recite it at the next Ma'ariv, as Rabbi Wolbe illustrates with an email about arranging a minyan in Galveston for a cruise passenger's yahrtzeit.Halacha 22 (Greatest Merit): The greatest merit for parents is not just Kaddish but children living Torah-observant lives daily, honoring parents posthumously (per the Zohar, citing Exodus 20:12). Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes actions like keeping kosher or Shabbos as greater than Kaddish, sharing a story of a bumper sticker (“good” above grass, “bad” below) to highlight the opportunity to do good while alive for ancestors' merit.Community and Sensitivity: Rabbi Wolbe stresses avoiding disputes over Kaddish precedence, as fights dishonor the deceased. He praises communal efforts, like arranging minyans for travelers, and reflects on the psychological benefits of shiva for healing, noting the custom of walking around the block post-shiva to reenter life._____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode (Ep. #63) of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!

In this sermon, Elder Joe Francis discusses the Book of Proverbs, focusing on chapter 4 and the pursuit of godly wisdom. He uses the metaphor of Christians as sheep living among pigs (non-Christians) to illustrate the challenge of living godly lives in an ungodly world. The sermon emphasizes that wisdom is a skill that requires discipline and that parents, especially fathers, have the responsibility to teach their children godly wisdom rather than relying on schools or society. Francis provides practical suggestions for pursuing wisdom, including disconnecting from digital distractions, reading the Bible regularly, and making good choices based on godly principles. He concludes by emphasizing that true wisdom and knowledge can only be found through a relationship with Jesus Christ.
