On October 1, 911, during the reign of Emperor Leo the Wise, an all-night vigil was being held at the Blachernae Church of the Mother of God in Constantinople, with many of the faithful crowding the church. St Andrew the Fool for Christ (commemorated tomorrow, October 2) was standing at the back of the church with his disciple Epiphanius. At around four in the morning, the most holy Theotokos appeared above the people, clothed in resplendent garments, surrounded by indescribable radiance, and holding a veil in her outstretched hands, as though to protect all the people. St Andrew said to Epiphanius 'Do you see how the Queen and Lady of all is praying for the whole world?' Epiphanius replied 'Yes, Father, I see it and stand in dread.' This wonderful event is recorded in Epiphanius' life of St Andrew. Because of it, the Church keeps an annual feast on this date. Note: This feast is particularly well-loved in the Slavic churches. In 1960, the Greek church transferred its observance to October 28, in memory of the Mother of God's protection of the Greek forces holding the Albanian front against Italy in 1940. St Romanos the Melodist of Constantinople (556)

How does God want us to act towards those who don't know Jesus? Is there a standard protocol or specific command we should follow? And how can we know for sure we are representing Christ well to them? Further, how do our words impact this relation-building witness to them? Dr. Jeff explains in this week's program.

Deciding whether to have an “ours baby” is deeply personal, and in a blended family, the decision can carry some unique complexities.We know because we've lived it.When we were building our life together, Mike felt certain that he wanted the opportunity to have a biological child, while Kim had already reached a place of contentment raising her one child. As our relationship grew, so did our conversations about what we each wanted, what concerned us, and what adding a baby might mean for our marriage and for Annika.In this episode, we share four important questions that can help you navigate this decision with greater honesty and clarity. We also share some of our own journey of welcoming Phoebe and Jacob into our family. Their arrivals brought incredible joy, but they also reminded us that even careful preparation can't predict exactly how the story will unfold.The goal isn't to rush toward a yes or a no. It's to create enough safety and honesty for both of you to fully engage in the conversation, understand what's at stake, and ultimately move forward as a united couple with realistic expectations, caring for everyone in the family.You'll Discover:Four important questions to explore before deciding to have an “ours baby”Why a baby shouldn't be expected to fix marital struggles or automatically unite a blended familyHow finances, fertility, support systems, family logistics, and previous parenting experiences can shape the decisionWhy couples need to talk honestly when their hopes don't alignHow the emotional security of your current children should factor into how you prepare to grow your familyReady for some extra support?We all need some extra support along the blending journey.

AI can speed up your work, but it can't make your people decisions for you. In this episode of Empowering Workplaces, Sanja Licina, PhD, President of Employee Experience at QuestionPro, talks with Marcela Mury, Senior People Analyst at Wise, about how HR teams can use AI with confidence while still thinking for themselves. You'll hear why having access to data isn't the same as knowing how to use it, how to spot when AI is getting it wrong, what managers can do to help their teams learn, and why curiosity may be the most important skill in HR right now. Guest: Marcela Mury is a Senior People Analyst at WISE with a background in Industrial Engineering, project management, and HR consultancy. Active as both a practitioner and educator, she is the co-founder of People Analytics Tropical and is passionate about data literacy, ethical decision-making, and humanizing workplace analytics.

From Overgrown Land to Outdoor Learning: Inside W.I.S.E. Forest School in JapanWhat happens when you look at an overgrown piece of land and see possibility?In this special Tour & Talk episode of The Outdoor Classrooms Podcast, I'm joined by Robert from W.I.S.E. Forest School in Wakayama, Japan, for a conversation about creating a place where children can learn, explore, take risks, and build a relationship with the natural world.Through photographs of the W.I.S.E. environment, Robert takes us behind the scenes of the space—sharing how it began, how it has evolved, and how the children themselves continue to shape it.We talk about child-led learning, Forest School philosophy, sustainability, appropriate risk, learning through the seasons, and the intersection of Robert's British roots with his work in Japan. Most importantly, we explore a question at the heart of every outdoor classroom:How do we create spaces that aren't simply made for children—but can truly become theirs?Whether you have access to a forest, a playground, a courtyard, or one small patch of green, Robert's story is a beautiful reminder that outdoor learning doesn't begin with having the perfect space.It begins with seeing possibility.W.I.S.E. Forest SchoolW.I.S.E. (Wakayama International School of English) Forest School opened in spring 2024 in Kimiidera, Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture, as Japan's first and only all-English "British International Forest School" incorporating a British curriculum.Based on W.I.S.E.'s philosophy of "high-quality English education at an affordable price," we go beyond the boundaries of an English school to learn English not just by learning English itself, but by broadening our perspective globally and learning many things practically through English.In a nature-immersed environment, you can be free and true to yourself. We aim to be a "one-of-a-kind" presence that nurtures not only English proficiency but also individuality, confidence, the ability to survive in modern society, and independence.Meet Rob SenseiRob is from England, the UK, and has travelled the world extensively since 2009. He has taught English and Geography in UK primary schools and various other countries.He majored in BA Geography with honors at university and earned a Master's degree in Environmental Science from graduate school in England.From childhood to now, Rob has loved nature through fishing, camping, mountain climbing, conservation and education. He chose "Forest School" as a place to pass on his extensive knowledge and experience to the next generation.Connect with Robert & W.I.S.E. Website: W.I.S.E.

Selected passages read from the text Gravity and Grace - specifically from the chapters on 'The Self' and 'Decreation'.Simone Weil (1909–1943) was a French philosopher, mystic and spiritual writer whose short life was devoted to the search for truth and God. Although born into a secular Jewish family, she was profoundly drawn to Christianity and experienced several deep mystical encounters with Christ.Her spiritual writings explore attention, prayer, suffering, grace, compassion and the surrender of the ego. She called this radical self-emptying 'decreation' — the relinquishment of the self so that divine love might enter.Weil never formally entered the Catholic Church, but remained deeply influenced by Christ and the Christian mystical tradition. She died in England in 1943, aged only thirty-four, leaving behind writings that have become highly regarded for their spiritual depth and originality.________________________________

How do you respond when threatened? Psychologists identify four primary survival responses that are triggered by our nervous systems when we face danger: Fight, flight, freeze, fawn. Most of us can identify with one of those. Some are quick to fight back. Others freeze in panic. Others strive to avoid conflict at all costs. Finally, others try to appease the instigator. While recognizing the natural tendencies of his disciples, Jesus gives different counsel: "Be wise as serpents and innocent as doves" (Matt. 10:16). How should we understand this metaphor in its context and how can it help believers today who still live as "sheep in the midst of wolves"?

He has spent the past 25 years speaking to audiences in all 50 states, on over 1000 college and high school campuses, at hundreds of professional and academic conferences, and to community groups across the nation. He has also lectured internationally in Canada and Bermuda, and has trained corporate, government, law enforcement and medical industry professionals on methods for dismantling racism in their institutions. Wise's antiracism work traces back to his days as a college activist in the 1980s, fighting for divestment from (and economic sanctions against) apartheid South Africa. After graduation, he threw himself into social justice efforts full-time, as a Youth Coordinator and Associate Director of the Louisiana Coalition Against Racism and Nazism: the largest of the many groups organized in the early 1990s to defeat the political candidacies of white supremacist and former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke. From there, he became a community organizer in New Orleans' public housing, and a policy analyst for a children's advocacy group focused on combatting poverty and economic inequity.

On the campaign trail, President Trump promised to declassify the 9/11 files; on September 11, 2001, he told New York television the World Trade Center was an “unbelievably powerful” structure and said he could not imagine an aircraft alone penetrating its exterior steel, even questioning whether additional explosions had occurred. Twenty-five years later, Brad Wozny revisits the lives lost, the heroism he witnessed at Ground Zero, his extraordinary journey 18 stories beneath the Pentagon, the Patriot Act and War on Terror that followed, and the unanswered questions still driving Americans to demand full disclosure, truth and justice...on a day Brad also marks as Christ's birthday. .
What does it actually look like for a Christian husband to lead his family while genuinely listening to his wife? In this episode, Steven Manual explores biblical husband leadership, headship, and the difference between seeking your wife's wisdom and simply letting her make the decisions. Using 1 Corinthians 11:3 and 1 Peter 3:7, Steven looks at two extremes husbands can fall into: the tyrant who makes every decision without his wife's input, and the husband who abdicates leadership and simply supports whatever his wife wants. Neither reflects the biblical picture of marriage. Instead, Steven makes the case for what he calls consulted headship—a husband who listens carefully, seeks his wife's counsel, values her wisdom, and still takes responsibility for leading his household. Steven also shares a real situation happening in his own life involving church discipline and explains why he intentionally keeps his wife informed, asks what he may be missing, and seeks her perspective without handing over the final decision. He connects this to Proverbs' picture of Lady Wisdom, the importance of godly counsel, conflict avoidance, parenting, and the consequences of leaving the husband's leadership role vacant. This conversation gets especially practical as Steven explains how husbands can actually have these conversations with their wives, including questions to ask, how to categorize different kinds of decisions, and why “decide out loud” can be a helpful framework for bringing your wife into the process without abdicating responsibility.

Hazrat Inayat Khan (1882 –1927) was an Indian professor of musicology, singer, exponent of the saraswati vina, poet, philosopher, and pioneer of the transmission of Sufism to the West. He initially came to the West as a representative of several traditions of classical Indian music, and established an order of Sufism (the Sufi Order) in London in 1914. By the time of his death in 1927, centers had been established throughout Europe and North America, and multiple volumes of his teachings had been published.Inayat Khan's teaching emphasized the oneness of God (tawhid) and the underlying harmony of the revelations communicated by the prophets of all the world's great religions. His discourses treated such varied subjects as religion, art, music, ethics, philosophy, psychology, and health and healing.Music: Uppbeat Licensed Music________________________________
