In this episode, we listen to words of consolation, as portrayed in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 323, penned by Puranaattu Perunkotranaar. Set in the ‘Paalai’ or ‘Drylands landscape’, the verse renders hope to an anxious heart! இம்மென் பேர் அலர், இவ் ஊர் நம்வயின்செய்வோர் ஏச் சொல் வாட, காதலர்வருவர் என்பது வாய்வதாக,ஐய செய்ய மதன் இல சிறிய நின்அடி நிலன் உறுதல் அஞ்சி, பையத்தடவரல் ஒதுக்கம் தகைகொள இயலி,காணிய வம்மோ? கற்பு மேம்படுவி!பலவுப் பல தடைஇய வேய் பயில் அடுக்கத்து,யானைச் செல் இனம் கடுப்ப, வானத்துவயங்கு கதிர் மழுங்கப் பாஅய், பாம்பின்பை பட இடிக்கும் கடுங் குரல் ஏற்றொடுஆலி அழி துளி தலைஇக்கால் வீழ்த்தன்று, நின் கதுப்பு உறழ் புயலே! In this trip to the familiar domain, we hardly see that space, and instead take in the weather changes, as we listen to the confidante say these words to the lady, when the man continues to remain parted away, having left in search of wealth: “Withering away words of those in this town, who speak, spreading resounding echoes of slander against you, your lover shall return! To see this come true, go on and press down upon those beautiful, etched, delicate, little feet of yours, which fear the ground, and gently bending your form, walk on with beauty, O maiden with brimming chastity! Akin to herds of elephants that live in bamboo-filled mountain ranges, packed with plenty of jackfruit trees, dimming the radiant orb in the sky, striking down on hoods of snakes, roaring with a thundering voice, shedding drops filled with hail, pouring a huge downpour, spread storm clouds, akin to your tresses!” Let’s listen to this loving conversation between friends and learn more! The confidante starts by acknowledging how slander is spreading in town owing to the gossiping mouths of the townsfolk. This indicates that the separation between the man and the lady has happened before their marriage. The confidante continues by saying that the man would soon be back, putting an end to all the talk of the townsfolk. Then, she points to how the thundering rain clouds are looming in the skies, and compares them to both herds of elephants in lush mountain ranges, as well as the lady’s tresses, in a double-edged simile. The confidante concludes by asking the lady to put those beautiful feet of hers to use and walk on outside to see this come true! To understand these words, we have to know about the man’s promise to return when the rains arrive. The confidante is pointing to the skies and saying to her friend, ‘The rains are approaching and so will he!’. The aspect of this verse I most related to was in how the confidante tells the lady to make those feet of hers touch the ground, and keep walking to see her joy approaching her. I imagine that the lady was languishing, refusing to even get up from her bed, and this is the confidante’s way of making the lady take a walk and take in the world outside. A subtle whisper of that timeless wisdom that there’s nothing like a walk to soothe a mind in the middle of whatever crisis it may find itself in!

John talks about the Right Wing obsession with Dr. Anthony Fauci's personal notes. The Republicans focus on Fauci rather than important pressing issues like inflation and public health. John points out the stark contrast between scientific inquiry and political theatrics. He critiques the selective outrage of right-wing figures like Rand Paul, who seem more interested in attacking Fauci than addressing the dangerous lies propagated by Donald Trump during the COVID-19 pandemic. Next, John jokes about Donald Trump's antics at Lindsey Graham's funeral, where he managed to fall asleep. John critiques the current state of the DNC, highlighting fundraising woes and the troubling implications of upcoming Medicare cuts just before the midterms. He dissects the Republican strategy that seems to target seniors, questioning the logic behind such decisions. The conversation then shifts to the growing discontent among independent voters, as John welcomes Adam Brandon, co-founder of the Independent Leadership Council and author of the upcoming book, "The Exhausted Majority: Building a Home for the Politically Homeless". Brandon shares insights from his polling data, revealing that many Americans are eager for politicians who prioritize problem-solving over party loyalty. As they discuss the importance of working across party lines, John and Adam envision a future where independent candidates can challenge the status quo and bring about meaningful change. Then finally, John welcomes back the insightful Dillon Naber Cruz, known as the Tattooed Theologian, and the passionate Pastor Desimber Rose. They dissect the hypocrisy of right-wing Christianity and its failure to align with the core messages of compassion and inclusion found in the Gospel. The discussion touches on the concept of Jesus as a refugee, exploring biblical texts that illustrate this point and the implications it has for contemporary attitudes toward immigration and social justice. They also discuss the alarming trend of young people, particularly Gen Z, distancing themselves from churches that support divisive political figures like Trump, emphasizing the need for a faith that truly reflects love and acceptance. As they unpack the teachings of Jesus, the trio highlights the importance of understanding scripture in its historical context and advocates for a more inclusive interpretation that resonates with today's societal challenges. This a powerful reminder that the essence of Christianity should be rooted in love, not judgment.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this convicting and powerful message entitled “Withering Religion,” Pastor Josiah Elias unpacks Jesus' encounter with the barren fig tree in Matthew 21, revealing a sobering warning against outward religion that looks alive but bears no real fruit. Just as the fig tree was full of leaves yet empty within, Jesus confronted a religious culture that honored God with words while their hearts remained distant from Him. Through the connection between the fig tree and the inner life, this sermon challenges believers to examine the authenticity of their devotion—because how deep is our relationship with Christ if we cannot truly recognize His voice, His presence, or His heart? Pastor Josiah calls the Church beyond appearances, reminding us that true discipleship is proven through love, integrity, faith, and intimacy with Jesus rather than empty performance. While dead religion withers, genuine faith moves mountains, releases the impossible through Christ, and produces lasting fruit in the lives of those planted deeply in God's presence. This message is a wake-up call for religion to die so people can truly encounter Christ, becoming like trees planted by living water whose leaves never wither and whose lives continually bear fruit for the glory of God.
Alan balances the local charm of a family trip to the Henry Ford Museum with the heavy, often unspoken emotional realities of a "mom-and-pop" dental practice. After braving the Michigan winter to celebrate his son's 16th birthday, Alan dives into the complex feelings that arise when a long-time, difficult patient appears in the obituaries. He explores the "bell curve" of patient relationships—from the favorites who brighten the schedule to the "10%" whose withering gazes cause genuine dread. The episode serves as a candid call to action for dental professionals to embrace brave, blunt conversations and "Turkey Shoots" rather than waiting for the natural conclusion of a difficult professional relationship.

Many of us who grew up with Lent hold dark memories of being forced to give up favorite things as penance for our sinfulness—even before we could really sin—with the implied punishment of self-deprivation as preparation for Easter, but more deeply as appeasing an angry God. Whatever the doctrinal intent, without further teaching, this is what we kids absorbed: a cementing of the reward/punishment paradigm that negates Jesus' concept of a love that self-exists as the oneness at the heart of everything. Lent, the forty days of fasting and prayer before Easter, was originally the rite of passage for those approaching baptism, the transition into new life requiring a complete change of values and perception. Meant to mirror Jesus' forty days of exhausting deprivation in the wilderness, the church and its people gradually lost the meaning behind Jesus' suffering, letting it fall into superstition as an end in itself, the penance needed to regain God's favor. What was Jesus really doing out there? He certainly suffered, but it was a means to an end, a self-imposed sensory deprivation to quiet the noise, remove all distraction to reveal what was true about himself, God, reality. His three symbolic temptations embrace the totality of human ego dissolution, effectively putting down the ego's need to be relevant, powerful, and spectacular in advance of its own agenda. What Jesus discovered in the fortyness of his wilderness was an agendaless love, indiscriminate and degreeless; that he was identified with that love; that he and that love, the Father, were one. This is what Lent is really about. Deprivation, yes. Discomfort, disturbance of familiar routines, sure. Suffering, maybe. But not as penance in search of reward…as the only means by which we can realize the Father's agendaless love already full-blown within ourselves. We don't ascend to this love, perform for it or suffer for it. As William Butler Yeats wrote, we wither into the truth. Lent is the ritual process of intentionally withering our noisy egoic minds to the point we can see what is really true. A process Jesus says is the only Way to the Father.

The Federal Reserve influences financial conditions through the federal funds market, a private market consisting of unsecured overnight interbank transactions. As the locus of money markets moves away from fed funds and more towards repos and SOFR, Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan has argued the current policy regime no longer suits the financial system. In this episode, we talk with Bill Nelson, Chief Economist and Chief Research Officer at the Bank Policy Institute, about the shifting nature of the fed funds market, what it would take to revive fed funds, and some alternative approaches to short-term rate policy.

The Old World is a mess. The Empire's leadership is distracted, the Elves are ignoring their DMs, and Frydaal the Chainmaker is having the time of her life carving up the Westerlands. With no one else stepping up, it's time for the Dragon siblings to assemble a fleet, awaken some Terracotta Sentinels, and sail halfway across the world to sort everyone out.

This week, we unpack a powerful and sobering message centered on the withering of the fig tree in Mark 11, and what it reveals about dead religion, man-made systems, and the all-sufficient work of Christ. Jesus invites us into life. Not a life of bitterness or striving, but one of dependency on Him because he alone gives life. He says: “Do not eat of that fruit again.” Will you place your faith in Christ's work alone today?
On a somber episode of BustED Pencils, Dr. Tim Slekar and Jakob the Wonder Boy discuss a growing problem in higher education. As universities struggle with enrollment amidst a growing demographic crisis, states and their college systems face tough choices when it comes to allocating funding. This has led smaller branch schools (think UW-Whitewater or UC-Davis) to have to fight hard for their roles in education as resources are pushed to marquee locations. Can these withering branches be saved? Will their fall lead to the rising of a new, stronger education system of the future? Let's talk about it.

Withering or flourishing… which best describes your daily walk? And how can you tell? Today on a Daily Walk we pick up where we left off in Matthew's gospel. That happens to be chapter twenty-one where Jesus curses a fig tree. Immediately the tree withered! Pastor John Randall says this is a good time for self-examination. If our life is withering away, that can change today. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29
As we open Matthew chapter 21 today we encounter some powerful illustrations. One of them involving a withering fig tree. While application could be made to the religious system and nation of Israel, we'll also take a look in the mirror. Perhaps your life could be described as dried up and withered?

#RUSSIA: WITHERING AGRICULTURE, OIL, GAS INCOME. MICHAEL BERNSTAM, HOOVER 1945 RED ARMY
Water is life. A cliché and undeniable reality. So, what happens when climate change imperils water access? This episode, the second in our Eurasian Environments series, features a discussion with Sarah Cameron and Enda Wangui on water in two far flung regions—the Aral Sea and East Africa. How does the increasing scarcity of water impact these two arid climates? Cameron and Wangui address the environmental challenges in Central Asia and East Africa. They shed light on how colonial legacies disrupted traditional land access and ownership and climate change's profound social and ecological impact on water politics, tradition, gender relations and migration patterns.Guests:Sarah Cameron is an associate professor of history at the University of Maryland, College Park. She is the author of The Hungry Steppe: Famine, Violence, and the Making of Soviet Kazakhstan published by Cornell University Press. At present, she is at work on a new book, Aral: Life and Death of a Sea, about the causes and consequences of the demise of Central Asia's Aral Sea. Edna Wangui is currently the chair of the Geography Department at Ohio University. Her research examines the impacts of climate change, rural development, contemporary agriculture and rural land on gender roles and relations among pastoralists and other marginalized communities in East Africa. She has published several articles on these issues as book chapters and peer-reviewed journals.Listen to more tracks from Die Blutleuchte's RUS.Send us your sounds!

Air Date 8/30/2024 Israel's assault on Gaza is fueled by pain, rage, trauma... a desire for safety, a desire for revenge, the hope for the safe return of hostages. It's a complicated mix of all of the above and more and it will be different for each person. However, there's also a deep well of denial and delusion about the decades-old status quo between Israel and Palestine that made the current conflict all but inevitable and the pursuit of genocide by some decision-makers in the Israeli government - as well as the support of the US government - possible.
