Eternal life, mercy, forgiveness of sins, covenant meal that keeps us in Christ and He in us. These are but a few of the very real benefits Christ our God bestows upon us through bread and wine that He has made His Body and Blood for us. Jesus teaches us this directly in the Gospel of John and chapter 6. The very generation following the Apostles testify to the experience of all of these benefits in this blessed Sacrament. And, the Church passes on the ministry of Christ to His people through the Eucharist even today. The Feast of Corpus Christi is the remembrance of the eternal benefits Christ has wrought for us in the Sacrament of Holy Eucharist. And, this Feast is our opportunity to offer great thanksgiving to Christ this great gift, the gift of Himself.

How do distant galaxies form? If you have two distant clouds of hydrogen, why does one turn into a star and another doesn't? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome Dr. Erika Hamden, Professor of Astrophysics at the University of Arizona. If Erika looks familiar, that might be because her TED Talk or “New Frontiers,” the TV show she hosts on Arizona Public Media. As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing, Artemis II, our first manned mission around the moon since 1972. Chuck, Allen and Erika share their excitement watching the mission, and especially the landing, while we watch the “only good video of the moon ever taken with a phone” that Reid Wiseman shot on his iPhone. Dr. Hamden tells us about her research into how distant stars and galaxies form. To fill in the blanks of this cosmic puzzle, she observes hydrogen in its elemental or molecular form – not looking at the stars themselves, but the emissions from hydrogen atoms. You'll learn about star formation in our galaxy and how Erika discerns the moment that a new star “first turns on.” Then it's time for our first audience question. Emma B. asks, “How many galaxies are there?” Erika says that in the observable universe, it's an outrageously large number, probably hundreds of billions or more. We take a look at the Hubble Ultra Deep Field image, which reflects a “tiny, tiny part of the sky,” where every dot except for the 3 stars is a galaxy. And that's just the universe we can see. Chuck asks Erika to tell us about her book, “Weird Universe: Everything We Don't Know about Space (and why it's important).” Professor Hamden shares her belief that anyone can understand anything if it's explained the right way to them. She talks about a poem by Rebecca Elson called “Responsibility to Awe” and the responsibility scientists have to share the wonders of the world with everybody. For our next audience question, Ava asks, “What is the craziest job in Astronomy that you have seen AI take over from humans?” Erika talks about using LLMs to review the digitized photographic plates of stars and the massive amount of data from the Vera Rubin Observatory, and also which activities still require human creativity. Speaking of creativity, it turns out that before becoming an astrophysicist, Erika got a diploma at Le Cordon Bleu in London and had a career as a professional chef. She still loves to cook and shares her recipe (below) for the Swedish-style cardamom buns she shows us in the episode. Finally, before we go, we congratulate Emily on recently being awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship. She shares some wisdom and advice she's learned on her journey that she also tells her students, but according to her it's a bit “cheesy” so we'll let her tell you in the show. If you'd like to know more about Dr. Hamden, you can keep up with her research, follow her on her social media accounts, and find out about her book by visiting her website. We hope you enjoy this episode of The LIUniverse, and, if you do, please support us on Patreon.   Erika's Cardamom Bun Recipe You can find the original recipe here on Cecilia Tolone's Substack. Erika's Modifications: “My changes are that I add more milk- about 75 grams more, because American flour is drier and Tucson is especially dry! And I played around with adding chiltipin flakes (a local, very spicy pepper) to the filling to make it kind of spicy. It's great! Finally, I use whole cardamom seeds from Penzey's that I grind before putting in.”   Credits for Images Used in this Episode: Artemis II end of mission splashdown. – Credit: NASA/ Bill Ingalls.

One Bride – Gifts and Anointing (Audio) David Eells – 3/25/26 I'm going to share with you some revelations of the anointing and gifts that we can look forward to receiving and operating in soon. I Am Strengthening My People G. M.- 05/12/2016 (David's notes in red) I received this Word and vision: I AM strengthening My people. I AM drawing them closer and closer to Myself and to each other. Giving them a genuine agape love for each other, that they hold one another accountable to My standards, accountable to My Word. It is by their joining together in a tightly knit fellowship that they become strong. Satan is not able to divide and separate. They have each other's backs. They actively partake in one another's spiritual warfare battles through prayer and fasting. The enemy is defeated. The open doors have been closed, and My saints have girded themselves with My truth. They stand strong and unwavering in the faith that I have given them. Their focus is on the prize - the gift of the full manifestation of Eternal Life. They are of one mind and one spirit. They will not be denied their rightful inheritance. Their hearts are full of praise and thanksgiving. Murmuring and complaining have no place in them. They look past the present and see what shall be. They see the end from the beginning. They waver not in the midst of their trials. They are full of joy as they rest in Me and My faithfulness. As I was receiving the last few phrases, a vision appeared. I saw a large circle of God's people standing together, shoulder to shoulder. I saw a solid circle of people; there were no gaps or empty spaces anywhere. I sensed strength and unity and a deep love for all the brethren gathered together to pray and believe God for His answers to their prayers. Eph.4:16 from whom all the body fitly framed and knit together through that which every joint supplieth, according to the working in due measure of each several part, maketh the increase of the body unto the building up of itself in love. I felt a strong commitment of this group to God and to each other -- a bond that couldn't be broken. It seemed as though there was an invisible shield (like shrink-wrap) that could not be penetrated by the enemy. Most of the people I saw were adults and a few children; all were wearing blue jeans and white t-shirts. This group of God's people was on a hillside, standing in the bright sun. I felt this was a representation of the local and greater UBM fellowship. The scripture I received by faith and by random was Joh.10:30 I and the Father are one. Praise God! What an awesome verse to go with the word and vision He had already given me. I'll share verses 27-30 in context: 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me: 28 and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, and no one shall snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father, who hath given (them) unto Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch (them) out of the Father's hand. 30 I and the Father are one. And in Joh.17:11 And I am no more in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we are. ... 22 And the glory which thou hast given me I have given unto them; that they may be one, even as we are one; 23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be perfected into one; that the world may know that thou didst send me, and lovedst them, even as thou lovedst me. The numbers and their meanings in the date 5/12/16 of this revelation are equally awesome: 5=Grace; 12=Divine power, rule or authority; 16=Love It is such a blessing to be a part of God's family and UBM!   Gifts and Anointings Given to the Repentant Sandy Shaw - 02/11/2017 (David's notes in red) In a dream, I saw two angels with their arms held out and in their hands, holding two very large baskets. I don't know what the two baskets were made out of, but they were soooo white. One basket had a mix of silver and gold that was almost like fine powder. But you could see the individual gold and silver. God put His hand into the gold and silver and gently let it fall from His hand. I knew that they were blessings and gifts. I saw it fall on different individuals. The first one I saw it fall on was for the gifts of healing. This person sees a man in a wheelchair. (This person is no doubt representing a corporate body of people.) She feels compelled to pray for him, but does so only from a distance. Then, on a different day, this same woman sees a woman wearing a leg brace and using a crutch. She feels compelled again to pray. This time, she goes to her and lays hands on her and prays. After the prayer, the lady walks away. As she is walking, the brace on her leg falls away. She pushes the crutch down, throwing her hands in the air, clapping, and gives glory and praise to God. Then the same lady feels compelled again to pray as another woman in front of her, who is deaf, dumb, and blind, and she is instantly healed. The Lord says, “Just as I knew the woman who touched My garment, so shall you know whom to pray for.” I saw three Christians who were lacking boldness walking, and four people of the world were yelling and saying crazy things to them. They just put their heads down, and the four who had spoken finished and left. Then a different group of worldly people came up to them. And they yelled at them too. But this time the Christians spoke in love, and it calmed the others down, and then they were able to listen. Then they had a group hug, and they all prayed and left. Next, I see all of us at a meeting. And there was a prophecy given in tongues. But there is a battle going on inside of this woman: “Is this You, Lord? Should I say it?” And the boldness in her brought it forth. She couldn't contain it any longer. They waited for an interpretation, but it did not come. There was a man across the room who opened his eyes and looked around. For the Lord was giving him the interpretation. But he was fearful and did not say it. He questioned God and did not speak it. Then it was a different day, and we were in a meeting. We were praising and worshiping the Lord. Then, once again, the same woman felt the stirring of the spirit, but she questioned it because there was no interpretation the last time. But the Spirit kept stirring, and with boldness it came out. But this time, the man was able to allow God to move, and the interpretation was given. Now we were all at another meeting. We were singing and praising, and I saw white songbooks open. Then they are closed and put down on the seat. Everyone stands up with their hands raised, and the music changes. Now people are singing in tongues. They continue to sing in tongues, and the music continues. There is no doubt that the Holy Spirit is present there. Now, at another meeting, everyone came with their hearts prepared by worshiping the Lord long before they arrived. When the music started with the first song, the anointing was there. We did not use the books. We were singing from our hearts. We went from English to tongues. (We are commanded to desire and zealously seek these spiritual gifts. 1Co.14:1 Follow after love; yet desire earnestly spiritual gifts ... 12 So also ye, since ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may abound unto the edifying of the church. Some will have to obey to receive the Giver of these gifts. And some will have to repent to receive His gifts. Act.5:32 And we are witnesses of these things; and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God hath given to them that obey him. 1Co.12:7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit to profit withal. 8 For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit: 9 to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, in the one Spirit; 10 and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues: 11 but all these worketh the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each one severally even as he will.) Then I was standing with the angels who were holding the baskets. I saw the Lord put His hand in the second basket that was full of oil. Then He let the oil flow down his fingertips as drops. He sprinkled the oil, but we were all doused. (Great anointings to minister will be given also to those who walk with Him.) End of dream. I asked for a verse by faith at random and amazingly got verse 1Co.14:13. In context, 12-15 1Co.14:12 So also ye, since ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may abound unto the edifying of the church. 13 Wherefore let him that speaketh in a tongue pray that he may interpret. 14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. 15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.   John the Baptist Ignored Eve Brast - 02/15/2017 (David's notes in red) We were all praying for Father to show us more concerning what He was telling us through Sandy's dream (above) and I was given the following dream. I dreamed I was standing in the living room of David's house (representing the larger house of David) where the wood-burning stove normally is. (Standing in the place of the fiery furnace.) David was standing to my right, and he was telling me something important about John the Baptist, who was standing on my left. There were three of us in the furnace (just like the three Hebrews). (The Bride, the Davids, and the John the Baptists are in the furnace of crucifixion -- priests offering the sacrifice of flesh.) (I asked for a verse by faith at random for this and amazingly, I got: Dan.3:26 (My finger was on Abed-nego, which means “servant of Nebo”, their “god of wisdom”. But Jesus is the wisdom of God.) Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace: he spake and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, ye servants of the Most High God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego came forth out of the midst of the fire.) (As we just saw: Three groups of people who have been purified in the furnace of fiery trials.) While David was speaking to me, I was facing the direction of the kitchen. The wall between the living room and kitchen had only 2x4 framework. I could see that the kitchen was well-lit and was twice as big as in real life. (This is a sign that the house of David will be preparing much more spiritual food in the light of God's Word.) There was an old rectangular wooden table and chairs in the center. The house was larger than in real life, too. (A sign this is the larger house of David.) John the Baptist was standing to my left and looked to be 17 or 18 years old. He had beautiful olive skin, wavy, brown, shoulder-length hair, and piercing brown eyes that seemed to look past the exterior and directly inside an individual. He was wearing a white linen shirt and was holding a square wicker basket out in front of him with both hands. The basket was lined with white linen that folded outward over the top edge. The basket was filled with loaves of bread. (John the Baptist's bread is primarily about repentance, which means change your mind and believe and act on the Bible. To know the Bible in experience is to know what repentance is. The bread being the Word and in David's house could mean he received this teaching from the Davids, who sent him forth with the bread below. David had a ministry to feed his Father's sheep before he was anointed to be king. Just before Jesus was anointed, John said to Him that it was he who should be baptized by Jesus, recognizing Him as his leader and teacher.) I asked Father for a word concerning John the Baptist and received: Mat.26:18 (My finger was on the phrase “My time is at hand”.) 18 And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Teacher saith, My time is at hand; I keep the passover at thy house with my disciples. 19 And the disciples did as Jesus appointed them; and they made ready the passover.) (If we understand that just the phrase is meant as an answer, then John the Baptist's “time is at hand.” If we look at the larger context, we can see that the Man-child's “time is at hand” to go to the cross, his furnace, and they are both in the furnace with the Bride. Also, a Passover of judgment is being offered to the disciples. A Passover is not possible without repentance and faith, which John preached.) There were quite a few people from UBM standing around in different areas of the house in groups of two, three and four. They were all chit-chatting and talking about all the usual stuff people talk about. I then heard David tell John to go around to the different groups of people and distribute the bread to them. (John's bread primarily represents repentance and belief of the Word.) Next, I was with him in the Spirit as he attempted to offer the loaves of bread to these people. As we approached each group, some were absorbed in conversation concerning their problems; others were laughing and cutting up; others were discussing various news articles they had read. This sounds like “the cares of the world.” Mat.13:22 And he that was sown among the thorns, this is he that heareth the word; and the care of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. I watched as John earnestly went from group to group and person to person, trying to get their attention and hand them the bread that David wanted them to eat. But it was as if he were invisible because they paid no attention to him. (David is sending the bread through the spirit of John, but these particular groups are not repenting. This is not to say that others are not repenting, but these groups are ignoring the warning. Are you one of them? Part of the problem is the denial of sin. People with rejection do this commonly. It makes them blind and repentance invisible. They are afraid to admit or confess sin because of fear of rejection. The problem is always someone else whom they are glad to pin the blame on. When you face them with their sin, they ignore you and get mad. Their denial of sin is a blindness to the repentance of John the Baptist. On the day of this dream, Leon received by faith at random: Isa.59:9 Therefore is justice far from us, neither doth righteousness overtake us: we look for light, but, behold, darkness; for brightness, but we walk in obscurity. 10 We grope for the wall (sanctification) like the blind; yea, we grope as they that have no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the twilight.; among them that are lusty we are as dead men. And this same day, Eve received by faith at random: Joh.9:20 His parents answered and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind: 21 but how he now seeth, we know not; or who opened his eyes, we know not: ask him; he is of age; he shall speak for himself. Let us call upon Jesus to open their blind eyes and repent. Let us ask for mercy and grace from our God for those who are blind to their sin. I just received this: Psa.119:17 Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live; So will I observe thy word. 18 Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold Wondrous things out of thy law. And this: 80:18 So shall we not go back from thee: Quicken thou us, and we will call upon thy name. 19 Turn us again, O Jehovah God of hosts; Cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved. And I thought of these verses: 119:25 My soul cleaveth unto the dust: Quicken [make alive] thou me according to thy word. ... 32 I will run the way of thy commandments, When thou shalt enlarge my heart. Son.1:4 Draw me; we will run after thee.... Php.2:13 for it is God who worketh in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure.) Back to Eve's dream: Finally, in discouragement and frustration, John the Baptist gave up and went and sat down at the kitchen table and placed the basket on the table in front of him. He looked over at me and back at the basket and shook his head slowly, and sighed deeply, as if to say, “Look at what they're missing!” He reached his hand down into the basket and pulled up a huge handful of gold and silver coins the size of half-dollars. (The value of repentance is beyond worldly value.) He then let the coins slowly slip through his hand. (Just as these are letting the gifts slip through their hands.) The bread had transformed into coins. I realized these were the gold and silver gifts from Sandy's dream, and I thought to myself, “That's the basket from Sandy's dream. It's sad that none of these people wanted those gifts.” (Those who have repentance will receive God's gifts and those who don't have repentance will not. Without repentance from what they are hearing from John the Baptist, they will not receive these gifts of the Spirit. We must repent and act on what we hear to receive these gifts that we need to minister Jesus to ourselves and others.) They weren't interested or were too carnally minded and dull in their awareness of the Spirit. Then I woke up. (Our flesh wants to do anything and everything except focus on the things of the Spirit. (Food, entertainment, leisure, fellowship, ego, sports, news.) I asked Father for a word concerning these people and received: Eph.5:13 (1-20 in context) 1 Be ye therefore imitators of God, as beloved children; 2 and walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of a sweet smell. 3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh saints; 4 nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, or jesting, which are not befitting: but rather giving of thanks. 5 For this ye know of a surety, that no fornicator, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. 6 Let no man deceive you with empty words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the sons of disobedience. 7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them; 8 for ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord: walk as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth), 10 proving what is well-pleasing unto the Lord; 11 and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them; 12 for the things which are done by them in secret it is a shame even to speak of. 13 But all things when they are reproved are made manifest by the light: for everything that is made manifest is light. God is shedding the light on those who are intent on hiding their sin in darkness. 14 Wherefore he saith, Awake, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall shine upon thee. 15 look therefore carefully how ye walk, not as unwise, but as wise; 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 Wherefore be ye not foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. 18 And be not drunken with wine, wherein is riot, but be filled with the Spirit. 19 speaking one to another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord; 20 giving thanks always for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father; 21 subjecting yourselves one to another in the fear of Christ. I asked Father for a word for this dream, and my finger was on the phrase “Pray now unto the Lord our God for us” in Jer.37:3 And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Pray now unto Jehovah our God for us. Recently, I had been speaking a bunch of unprofitable words concerning a situation in my life, and afterward I heard Father very clearly say to me in a stern tone, “No more idle words!” I understood that these words sabotaged my prayers and the faith I was trying to have concerning the situation. After this dream above, I realized this was more than an individual warning, but a corporate warning. Because a lot of idle speaking can also be a distraction and detraction from the things of the Spirit when the people of God are gathered together. (Idle words cancel words of faith. We call the things that be not as though they are and then we call the things that are to cancel the things that be not. Jas.1:2 Count it all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into manifold temptations; 3 Knowing that the proving of your faith worketh patience. We must consistently and patiently confess what we pray for or command as ours. 4 And let patience have its perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, lacking in nothing. 5 But if any of you lacketh wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all liberally and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. 6 But let him ask in faith, nothing doubting: for he that doubteth is like the surge of the sea driven by the wind and tossed. 7 For let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord; 8 a doubleminded man, unstable in all his ways. It seems the Father's message for both Sandy's dream and this one is that we need to get serious about our priesthood and the ministration of the gifts for the body. He is more than willing to bestow these gifts upon us if we will focus on the things of the Spirit and not allow distractions and idle words to detract from what He wants to do in us and through us.   Coming Anointing and Hidden Manna Revealed Bill Steenland - 07/29/2014 (David's notes in red) A few weeks ago, I had two visions and a word of knowledge as I was waking up at about 3:30 AM. The visions were more like experiences than visions, but they were not dreams. In the first vision, I was at my grandparents' house in New Jersey. (Representing being In the house of the early Church. Jud.3 Beloved, while I was giving all diligence to write unto you of our common salvation, I was constrained to write unto you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered unto the saints.) I was alone and in a two-door open garage where we would have barbecues and parties when I was a little child. (It is open for the chosen to partake of. A place of rest for a vehicle or vessel, as we are receiving spiritual food and celebrating.) Just outside the garage was a huge pool where I would play as a child. (A place for immersion in much water of the Word that puts to death the self-life.) Bill: Isa.8:18 Behold, I and the children whom Jehovah hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from Jehovah of hosts, who dwelleth in mount Zion. Mat.18:2 And he called to him a little child, and set him in the midst of them, 3 and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven. 4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.... I was standing in the garage, in front of a refrigerator, opening the freezer. (I believe the freezer means what has been “preserved” and is coming or stored up for the tribulation.) When I opened the freezer, a golden white light anointing shone onto my face. (I had been reading the Book of Zechariah and Hidden Manna for the End Times a lot. This scripture jumped out at me when I was reading Zechariah 4 about the Two Witnesses, and it reminded me of the light and anointing that I felt in this first vision. Zec.4:11 Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive-trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof? 12 And I answered the second time, and said unto him, What are these two olive-branches, which are beside the two golden spouts, that empty the golden oil out of themselves? 13 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these are? And I said, No, my lord. 14 Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth. I felt the most love, faith, joy and peace I've ever felt in my whole life. It was like being in the glory of God in Heaven. This lasted for only a split second before it ended. I do not doubt that if anyone walked in that anointing and presence of God, there would be more miracles and power (and holiness) than anyone could imagine. It was the most awesome thing I've ever felt: peace, wholeness, faith, joy, love, and Jesus. The Bride is going to walk in this? Wow! I had the second vision directly after this one. In it, I was standing about 3-5 feet to the right of the first freezer, opening up a second freezer, but this one was on the ground, and it had a blue lid. (Representing A Heavenly door. Rev.3:8 I know thy works (behold, I have set before thee a door opened, which none can shut), that thou hast a little power, and didst keep my word, and didst not deny my name.) It was about 3x5 feet wide and there was ice and water in the freezer. (Ice and water because the contents are thawing for use very soon.) The second vision started with me in the middle of pulling out a huge rack of meat (Ribs? Steak?) with my right hand. (The meat of the Word, as well as the works of God, are about to be seen. It has been preserved for this day, but now it's thawing for use.) Joh.4:34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to accomplish his work. 35 say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh the harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, that they are white already unto harvest. 36 He that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal; that he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. 37 For herein is the saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. 38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye have not labored: others have labored, and ye are entered into their labor. ... Joh.6:28 They said therefore unto him, What must we do, that we may work the works of God? 29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. This vision was more like an experience in that I could hear the water dripping off the meat and echoing as it dripped back into the freezer; it was strange. More than half asleep, still I awoke to go to the bathroom when this word came to me: (Joh.2:8) “And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the ruler of the feast. And they bare it.” (Get ready for the greater works. Joh.14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater [works] than these shall he do; because I go unto the Father. 13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask anything in my name, that will I do.) Notes: I was praying and seeking the Lord on my face, asking Him for this anointing of faith, peace, love, and joy in the Lord. When I finished, I turned to get up. I looked to my left at my alarm clock, and it was 1:44! (I have been seeing this so often that I don't even mention it anymore.) About a week later, I was about to go to sleep when I went to get my cell phone to put it on the charger. The lights were off, and I was reaching in the dark for my cell phone and knocked my copy of Hidden Manna for the End Times into a white cooler where my roommate keeps extra beverages because there is no room in the fridge. As I pulled it out of the water, I heard the water drip a couple of times. My eyes widened as I immediately thought of the vision I had in which I was pulling the huge rack of meat out of the freezer, except now the meat was Hidden Manna for the End Times. (To know what we are called to in these end times, read that book.) I thought to myself, there is no way that is a coincidence; no way at all, considering I have been praying and believing for this gift from God to be manifested in my life, and the two visions had a very profound effect on me. I'll never forget them. So now I have the faith to do the works, as God was using this scenario of events to show me that the time has come, and it is time to do the works of God in my life and change that water to wine and manifest Jesus. Interesting note: These two visions in a two-door garage, two freezers -- two witnesses? (As we learned in Hidden Manna, the Two Witnesses are two corporate witnesses, just like those who went out two-by-two after the Man-child Jesus.) Here we see that God has preserved His glorious anointing, meat of the Word, and greater works for this end-time revival. These will be hated and attacked by the religious, just as they were in Jesus' time. Get ready, saints! Bill's updated notes - 9/15/14: This is something that the Lord showed me after thinking about these visions so much! The second vision, where my hand was holding the rack of meat -- the flesh of Jesus, the veil! (Hebrews 10:20) Combining both interpretations from top to bottom will tell the whole story, but this is what the Lord gave me about the rack of meat I took out of the blue freezer/cooler on the ground: Joh.6:55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. 56 He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood abideth in me, and I in him. (Partaking of Jesus' meat causes one to grow up past the milk of childhood, becoming Sons and not just children. Partaking of His blood represents His nature, replacing our fallen nature. This enables us to live in His presence.) Heb.10:19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; (We were crucified with Christ. We don't live anymore; Christ lives in us.) Exo.26:33 And thou shalt hang up the veil under the clasps, and shalt bring in thither within the veil the ark of the testimony: and the veil shall separate unto you between the holy place and the most holy. (The veil that hides the presence of God is the flesh.) Heb.9:2 For there was a tabernacle prepared, the first, wherein were the candlestick, and the table, and the showbread; which is called the Holy place. 3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holy of holies; 4 having a golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was a golden pot holding the manna, and Aaron's rod that budded (Showing His authority through signs and wonders like Jesus and the Man-child.), and the tables of the covenant (representing the true Word); 5 and above it cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy-seat; of which things we cannot now speak severally. David makes the point in Hidden Manna that the Ark of the Covenant and the mercy seat represent the throne of God. Below is an excerpt from Hidden Manna “Caught up to the Throne” chapter, sub-section “Spiritual Nature of the Throne”: Notice that the Man-child will speak to God's people on earth from behind the veil, which is exactly what Moses did when He was before the mercy seat, the place of God's throne, “behind the veil” of the Tabernacle in the wilderness. (Exo.25:21) And thou shalt put the mercy-seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee. (22) And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy-seat, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel. Notice that Moses, as the Man-child of his day, spoke with God behind the veil in the heavenly place and then told the people what he heard. (They saw the veil but the glory of God on His face was hidden by his flesh.) (Joh.5:30) I can of myself do nothing: as I hear, I judge.... Another confirmation is when Moses began to wear a veil when speaking to the people about what God was saying. In other words, he spoke to the people from behind the veil; (inside his flesh). (Exo.34:33) And when Moses had done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. (34) But when Moses went in before the Lord to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out, and spake unto the children of Israel that which he was commanded. (35) And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the veil upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him. Notice Moses wore no veil when he spoke with the Lord because he was in the typical place of the Holy of Holies behind the veil, but when he went to give the Word to the people, he wore a veil that we might know he was still behind the veil and in the presence of God. As a type for the end-time Man-child, Jesus was of the order of the Melchizedek high priesthood. (Heb.6:20) ... Jesus entered for us, having become a high priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek. Every high priest ministers both behind the veil before God and to the people. Also, an “order” is not just one but a series. The next in the series is Jesus manifested in the body of the corporate end-time Man-child who will go behind the veil and minister to the people, as Moses did. In Psalm 110 we are told of this Melchizedek corporate priesthood. (Psa.110:4) ... Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek. What we will see here is that this chapter also speaks of the end-time Melchizedek.

In this episode of The Dental Boardroom Podcast, host Wes Read is joined by Megan Shelton (Shelton Solutions) and Michael Anderson (co-founder of Wondrous) for an in-depth executive session focused on one of the most challenging stages of practice ownership: scaling without creating chaos.The conversation explores the concept of “No Man's Land” the phase where a dental practice is too big to operate informally, yet not structured enough to run like a true organization. The panel breaks down what typically breaks first as practices grow, why culture and clarity often erode before financial performance does, and how intentional systems, leadership layers, and data-driven decision-making can help owners scale sustainably.This episode is especially relevant for dentists approaching $1.5–$2.5M in revenue, adding providers, or feeling increasingly busy, stressed, and constrained despite apparent growth.Key Topics CoveredThe “No Man's Land” phase of practice growthFounder vs. CEO identity shiftsCulture, values, and psychological safety as scaling foundationsMeasuring quality beyond production and revenueMarketing ROI, lead quality, and tracking systemsOperational dashboards, KPIs, and accountabilityDelegation, leadership development, and team structureCommon myths and misconceptions about growthKey Takeaways1. Growth Without Systems Leads to ChaosWhen revenue outpaces infrastructure, practices experience rising stress, declining consistency, and fractured operations even if production looks strong on paper.2. Culture Breaks Before the Numbers DoTeams feel instability before leaders can name it. Communication breakdowns, confusion, and burnout are often the earliest warning signs of unhealthy growth.3. Identity Must Be Defined Before ScaleClear mission, values, and standards create alignment and serve as a filter for decisions around hiring, marketing, scheduling, and patient care.4. Quality Requires Measurement, Not AssumptionsTrue quality indicators include:Case acceptance consistencyPatient retention and re-treatment ratesTeam turnover and engagementDiagnostic alignment across providersCash flow clarity5. Marketing Success Depends on End-to-End VisibilityMore leads don't equal better outcomes. Practices must track where patients come from, how they convert, and which channels actually drive ROI.6. Delegation Is Essential for Sustainable GrowthScaling requires owners to let go of certain roles and build leadership layers while maintaining accountability through systems and metrics.7. Many Owners Want Relief, Not More VolumeWithout structure, adding providers, patients, or locations...

NWP Radio sits down with Katie Wood Ray and Stella Villalba to discuss the new edition of Wondrous Words, Katie's landmark 1999 book on responsive writing instruction. Twenty-five years later, the authors explore how teaching has changed—and why their message about writer agency, teacher decision-making, and the joy of teaching is more urgent than ever. In an era of mandated curricula and scripted lessons, they argue for a pedagogy of listening and kidwatching that treats students as writers making real choices, not just students completing assignments.
