Prov 12:1. Lessons in Proverbs John O'Roark

"Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil. It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones." - Proverbs 3:7-8

As the planet continues to heat up, animals big and small are moving towards the poles to escape the heat.  According to researchers, these animals are likely to come into contact with other animals that they normally wouldn't, and are likely to relocate to regions with large human populations.  These factors create opportunities for pathogens […]

"As goes the consumer, so goes the U.S. economy and stock market. The irony is that we are heading in the wrong direction inflation-wise. However, consumer spending is holding fast," says Jim Lowell. The bond market was more hawkish than the Federal Reserve, and now the Fed is more hawkish. "The Fed is moving on the data that they know rather than geopolitical fears," Lowell adds.

According to a new study by Cardiff University in the UK, Britain could achieve nearly half of the carbon removal needed to meet its climate goals by adding basalt rock dust to crop fields.  The process is known as enhanced weathering and has been the subject of ongoing research in the U.S. at Cornell University […]

How can we raise kingdom-minded kids who love God and their neighbors, in all their diversity? Michelle Reyes and Helen Lee join Josh to discuss their new book, The Race-Wise Family, in the context of Pixar's Turning Red.

"God has given us the gift of ethnic differences as a conduit to his witness and to the growth of his church." — Helen Lee Join us for this conversation with author Helen Lee as we talk about ways we can cultivate safe environments that support families and church communities leaning into discussions about race. Let me invite you into a conversation with Helen Lee, author and director of product innovation at InterVarsity Press. In the context of a racialized culture in which tension and violence is a daily reality, Helen and her co-author Michelle Reyes have written a book for families. The Race-Wise Family is a book designed for parents and caregivers who wish to imbue their family culture with sensitivity and nuance around the concept of race. Although the book is written for parents, I found that the wisdom within this book can be almost universally applied in the life of anyone who wishes to create a safe environment for young people to explore and grow in their ability to heal our communities from the devastating effects of racism. Helen doesn't shy away from the need for deep thinking and soul-work on the part of the caregiver, but also suggests a number of very simple and practical ideas that could be implemented within moments. This book is an important contribution to our national and church-wide conversation about race, and Helen is just a delight to talk with.  Programming Note: We'll be taking a two-month summer break here at All Shall Be Well. Our team will be resting and reconnecting and planning for the future during June and July, so we encourage you to catch up on back episodes, get some rest yourself if you can, and watch for our next season to begin in mid-August. So have a listen! We're so glad you're here. — Ann Boyd For show notes or more information please visit our article at The Well.

Think about the distinction between a fool and wise man? What do they have in common? When they both make a decision, they choose what they think will be best for them. They both want a good outcome. A fool looks to himself and a wise man looks beyond himself to something wiser than himself. A wise man has a different source of knowledge. What will the future hold for us?

Today I'm sharing something that's heavy on my heart this week—an interaction I had with a child (who isn't mine) that broke my heart and reminded me of my mission to support and encourage other parents on this journey.  We all know there's no guidebook for parenting. So when the tough moments pop up, we can easily feel lost. What I keep realizing is that at the end of the day, it all comes down to connection. Humans need other humans, and our kids need us to come down to their level and truly connect by spending time together. Don't we all just want to be seen and loved where we are? Finding time to first fill our own cup so that we can pour into our kids is a daily struggle—but it's a cause worth fighting for. No matter how many imperfect tries it takes, just keep showing up.

The ivory-billed woodpecker was the largest woodpecker in the US.  They were once relatively common, stretching from the Carolinas through the southeast and across to Texas.  Their numbers started to drop sharply in the 19th century because of habitat loss and overhunting.  Many were taken as valuable specimens; some were even eaten by poverty-stricken people.

WHO IS WISE?? in Growth by Rabbi Daniel Kalish

Nick Foles signs for two years to back up Matt Ryan, and the Colts hope they just wasted a bunch of money because no one wants a back-up QB to play! James Morgan was waived to make room for Foles. (at 10:25) Dan Dakich and Mark Boyle talked about pregames today on The Fan, and I go a step farther today. TV pregames are of zero use whatsoever, and all programming on the Marquee Network is useless other than revisits with those who played for the 1969 Cubs. (at 15:00) If the Indy 500 is blacked out locally, it has nothing to do with selling ticket. Being televised enhances tickets sales. It does not suppress them - and every sports franchise and media company manager knows it. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support

Our conversation with activist historian and organizer, Leah Wise, now 75, originally aired in 2017. She spoke with us about the threat to democracy then which has only worsened now. She challenged us to think deeply about the responsibility of generations to carry young people forward as they step up and take over. Our conversation with Leah was rich in history and wisdom, her life reflecting the intersecting struggles and gains for racial, gender and economic justice in the Southeast of the United States and worldwide over the past 40 years. Leah offers us feisty commentary on the sexism that infused (and continues to) so many progressive movements, on the legacy of “polio personality”, and on her odyssey from civil rights activist to low-wage steel worker to leader of Southerners for Economic Justice and a network of similar groups across the Southeast. She offers heartfelt insights into the joys of paying attention to things that slipped by earlier: gardening, the feeling of the sun on your face, starting a sewing crafts business in your 70s, and the pleasures of grandchildren. And she leaves us with a resounding call: to join together to re-build the infrastructure of democracy.

Jesus reigns from heaven for the good of believers, yet hardships still come their way. Scripture speaks of this, explains this, and tells us how to endure.

Toward the end of chapter 4, Jesus makes a dramatic invitation to two pairs of brothers to follow Him and join Him in His work. It's a dramatic moment, with all four young men leaving the family business as fisherman to join Jesus. But as we examine the very human element of this story, we see that Jesus' call to these ordinary tradesmen is actually exceptional news for us - and we see Jesus making the same invitation to us, to “lay down our nets” and “follow Him.” An invitation that makes demands of us, yes, but also is filled with a promise of a life far beyond anything we could have previously imagined as we walk behind and beside God Himself.

May 22, 2022Preaching: Rev. Justin KendrickScripture Reading:Ecclesiastes 9:11-10:20

Venture capitalist Marc Andreessen famously wrote that “software is eating the world.” While digital transformation is everywhere, and even your coffee shop has an app, this doesn't mean we all need to learn STEM subjects and become coders. The vast majority of jobs remain non-technical.  To succeed in today's economy, ambitious professionals need to learn how to become Digital Collaborators. This means learning additional skills, rather than completely retraining. Learning notes from this episode: Microsoft says that "the demand for digital skills continues to grow, and we estimate that digital job capacity – or the total number of technology-oriented jobs – will increase nearly five-fold by 2025, rising from 41 million in 2020 to 190 million in 2025. These numbers are in stark contrast, and they illustrate the digital skills gap that has accompanied the Fourth Industrial Revolution.” Being a Digital Collaborator means learning to collaborate with a tech team, speak a common language and ask the right questions. It means learning to work with developers, data scientists and designers.  Learning what data scientists do and how to work with them is the best skill set to develop for ambitious professionals, says David Wells, ex CFO Netflix and Board Chair at Wise.  What Data Scientists Do & How To Work With Them Sign up for the course & get Early Bird access here.  If you have questions about the course, or would like to buy corporate access for your teams, please get in touch with us on info@techfornontechies.co    ----- If you like learning about how tech products and profits get made, you'll like our newsletter.

Where we seek counsel or advice will shape our lives. Wise counsel is determined by how much that counsel lines up with the principles found in the word of God. Bible Reading: 2 Sam. 16-20 Verse of the day: 2 Samuel 16:23, "The advice of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if one inquired of the word of God; so was all the advice of Ahithophel regarded by both David and Absalom." Word of the day: Advice. It is the Hebrew word:  עֵצָה (ay-tsaw').

Matthew McConaughey wasn't always the Hollywood mega-star he is today. His journey from Longview, Texas to the silver screen is one of perseverance, preparation, and self-realization. Throughout his life, Matthew has discovered the importance of reflection and has come to reframe his hardships and struggles as "green lights.” In this episode, Hala and Matthew discuss Matthew's childhood and the origins of his confidence, his dedication to journaling, his best-selling book, Greenlights, why he took a break from acting to reinvent his image, how to turn red and yellow lights to green, and some life lessons he learned along the way.   Topics Include: - Why Matthew wrote a book instead of making a movie - Matthew's process of writing and journaling - Defining “Greenlights”  - Why Matthew dislikes the word “Unbelievable”  - The story of “Little Mr. Texas” - Origin of Matthew's confidence  - Turning a ‘Red Light' into a ‘Green Light' - Matthew's decision to go to a less expensive college - Why Matthew went to film school  - On Dazed and Confused and the importance of preparation - Experience with romantic comedy movies - Matthew's thoughts on celebrity status  - The Just Keep Livin Foundation - Matthew's secret to profiting in life - And other topics…   Matthew McConaughey is an academy award-winning actor and the author of the New York Times best-selling book Greenlights.    Matthew is also a professor of practice at the University of Texas at Austin, as well as Minister of Culture/M.O.C. for the University of Texas and the City of Austin.

America is getting tired of angry mobs, and something tells us that it's not going to work this time, as the mob descends on Supreme Court Justices' homes. The more bullying, obnoxious, and violent the left gets, the more they will get shellacked come the midterms in November. In today's broadcast, we're talking about the pro-life group firebombed in Wisconsin, the coming backlash, precisely what is in the abortion bill that Joe Manchin refused to vote for, and more!

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. He has served as an adjunct professor at the Smith College School of Social Work, in Northampton, MA., and from 1999-2003 was an advisor to the Fisk University Race Relations Institute in Nashville, TN. Wise is the author of seven books, including his highly-acclaimed memoir, White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son, as well as Dear White America: Letter to a New Minority, and Under the Affluence: Shaming the Poor, Praising the Rich and Sacrificing the Future of America. His forthcoming book, White LIES Matter: Race, Crime and the Politics of Fear in America, will be released in 2018. His essays have appeared on Alternet, Salon, Huffington Post, Counterpunch, Black Commentator, BK Nation, Z Magazine and The Root, which recently named Wise one of the “8 Wokest White People We Know.” Wise has been featured in several documentaries, including “The Great White Hoax: Donald Trump and the Politics of Race and Class in America,” and “White Like Me: Race, Racism and White Privilege in America,” both from the Media Education Foundation. He also appeared alongside legendary scholar and activist, Angela Davis, in the 2011 documentary, “Vocabulary of Change.” In this public dialogue between the two activists, Davis and Wise discussed the connections between issues of race, class, gender, sexuality and militarism, as well as inter-generational movement building and the prospects for social change. Wise is also one of five persons—including President Barack Obama—interviewed for a video exhibition on race relations in America, featured at the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington DC. Additionally, his media presence includes dozens of appearances on CNN, MSNBC and NPR, feature interviews on ABC's 20/20 and CBS's 48 Hours, as well as videos posted on YouTube, Facebook and other social media platforms that have received over 20 million views. His podcast, “Speak Out with Tim Wise,” launched this fall and features weekly interviews with activists, scholars and artists about movement building and strategies for social change. Wise graduated from Tulane University in 1990 and received antiracism training from the People's Institute for Survival and Beyond, in New Orleans. Ryan Busse is a former firearms executive who helped build one of the world's most iconic gun companies, and was nominated multiple times by industry colleagues for the prestigious Shooting Industry Person of The Year Award. Busse is an environmental advocate who served in many leadership roles for conservation organizations, including as an advisor for the United States Senate Sportsmen's Caucus and the Biden Presidential Campaign. He remains a proud outdoorsman, gun owner, father, and resident of Montana. About the book.... A long-time former executive at one of the country's top gun manufacturers reveals how his industry radicalized a large swathe of America, and explains how it must change before we can reduce gun violence and heal as a nation. Ryan Busse has traveled a long, circuitous path along the American gun journey. As an avid hunter, outdoorsman, and conservationist–all things that the firearms industry was built on–he rose to the highest ranks of the rapidly growing, multibillion-dollar firearms industry. But replacing self-imposed decency with rampant fear-mongering, racism, hardline conservative politics, massive profits from semi-automatic weapons sales, and McCarthyesque policing have driven Busse to do something few other gun executives have done: he's ending his 30-year career in the industry to tell its secrets. He watched the industry change from its smaller, less corporate and far-less-powerful form to the partisan, power-hungry entity it is today. He thought he could go up against the power of the industry from within, and over the years had made small inroads toward sensible gun ownership and use. But that's simply not possible anymore. This book is an insider's call-out, a voice-driven tale of personal transformation, and a fast ride through wild times and colorful characters that populate a much-speculated-about, but little-known industry. It's also a story of how authoritarianism spreads in the guise of freedom, how voicing one's conscience becomes an act of treason in a culture that demands sameness and loyalty.
