The three keys to being fulfilled and effective in life. Dan from http://wwww.PositiveAtmosphere.com

Show Notes: In this podcast, Guy Finley takes a look at why it is that we seem to repeat the same experiences over and over again, and what it is we need to understand about life if we want to be truly alive. Highlights: A person can spend many years searching for truth, and at a certain point, because his or her findings have been incomplete, that man or woman will begin to wonder whether or not an authentically fearless life actually exists. Truth itself wants you to know that not only does a life without fear exist, but that it is your right to have such a life. And yet there is an immense difference between suspecting that you are not intended to live with so much worry and anxiety, and the actual relationship with a life that is untouched by these negative states. As we are presently, we do not see the whole of our own lives. What does it mean to see the whole of something? Whenever "winter storms" come into our lives, we usually run from them because it is not the kind of weather that we want. Instead of staying with the whole movement of that season, of that moment, we bail on ourselves; or more accurately, something inside of us convinces us that this isn't the way that life is supposed to be. Life itself is cycles, but human beings do not allow the seasons of their own lives prove to them that there is something greater than the sum of its parts. The individual scenes in our lives are intended to change by themselves, but we exit the scene before the whole movement is complete, and therefore we repeat the same scenes over and over again. You are not the seasons of your life. However, the seasons that you resist become the whole of your life. When the season of suffering, of worry, heaviness, despair, or lack of inspiration passes through, you try to escape how you feel through yet another plan, and therefore you mistake the season for being the very center of your life. You can understand that everything comes and goes. You are not meant to be in control of life in the way that you currently think. You are meant to be conscious of the part of you that wants to control life. The only time that you think that you have to control an event is when you are afraid of what the event means to you; then it is not you who is in control, but fear that is in control. Fearlessness comes with a whole life. No real fear exists in the whole. Anger stays as anger, fear stays as fear, negative states remain as negative states because they are fed by resistance. When you do not feed a negative state through resistance, then under law that negative state must move through its natural course. These seasons of the soul move independent of your involvement with them. Who you really are has nothing to do with what comes and goes during your life. Who you really are is unimaginably greater than the sum of all of these parts. You can download this podcast here. Visit our Web site to see all past podcasts.

http://vook.tumblr.com Most people think of Tim Barrus as a writer involved in literary scandal. Even at publications as radical as Drummer and Mach magazines, both gay leather/sm publications, Barrus was their most controversial editor. Then, he went mainstream in disguise. Esquire (nominated for a national Magazine Award). Houghton Mifflin. Time. Random House. PEN. The New York Times. Tim Barrus was denounced by the Wall Street Journal. Yet Barrus does not even see himself as a writer; certainly not one who belongs to a community or a genre. Tim Barrus is a whore, and says so. He is banished from the United States. The issue is identity. Barrus does not allow the superficiality of a literary scandal slow him down. He moves to France and creates Cinematheque Films. Cinematheque Films, based in Paris, is guerrilla education for a collective of at-risk adolescent HIV+/AIDS boys studying art in radical, self-directed ways. Prostitutes, junkies, thieves, and potential suicides. Traditional education has failed them. They are from the street. Tim Barrus connects with the writer, Mary Scriver -- or Prairie Mary -- through Arts Journal. She intrigues the boys of Cinematheque with the publication of her book, Bronze: Inside and Out. The boys of Cinematheque are connected at the hip to computer technology. It is how they communicate. Mary Scriver and Tim Barrus begin a dialogue that delves deeply into the ideas of censorship, the Internet, journalism, writing and publishing fiction, black lists, and how these things have a direct bearing on the lives of young boys struggling to create art, and struggling to survive. As creatures of the street, the boys have left "the life" of the Pigalle, the Parisian red light district. They are not strangers to how organized crime functions, how the drug culture still flourishes, and they are all too familiar with human trafficking. How the boys of Cinematheque Films become involved in extricating other adolescents just like them from the legacy of human trafficking is the story behind The Fallen and the Flight. A VOOK. Whose fictional narrative employs both text and video. This is the VOOK query for The Fallen and the Flight by Tim Barrus -- aka Nasdij -- and Mary Scriver -- aka Prairie Mary. Videos represented here are Cinematheque class assignments, mash-ups, photographic assignments, and poetry projects created by the boys of Cinematheque. They are represented here simply as creative examples of work that could correspond to the text and narration of the VOOK. The synopsis of the Fallen and the Flight is represented here as well in the linear order the VOOK adheres to. Most VOOKS contract out the video content to Hollywood-based production companies. The premise of The Fallen and the Flight is that the video would be created by the same people who created the text. Cinematheque Films: Arts Education: Students are allowed access to fair use art materials and mixed media in the teaching of iconic manipulation in photographic, video and film production. Representations and facsimiles posted here are presented as teaching tools and instruments employed to instruct students in the techniques and application of mixed media art and collage. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act allows art-teaching entities the fair use of such materials in classroom and teaching-research applications. Clicking the NEXT button at the bottom of each page will take you into the linear outline of the book. Again, as such, this is the QUERY. Each video and each chapter is accompanied with observations by Scriver and Barrus. THE FALLEN AND THE FLIGHT: MEMORY'S PROFANE PERSISTENCE

The collection is soon to be published together as a book, as Brian concentrates on a formulating a coherent philosophy for the 21st century: "Now Im really excited to take the next step of my journey and share this with as many people as possible..."

This sermon on the endurance of God's Elect and the ability His chosen ones have by His grace to stand fast in their faith with a lively hope for their salvation was preached by Pastor Nelson Turner of AV1611Reformation.com on the Lord's Day August 23, 2009 from the inspired word of God in the English language, the AV1611 King James Bible. Endurance is contrasted with fainting in the verses Pastor Turner cites to explain the signs of faith and God's calling, and the challenges the faithful confront both for their correction and for their uplifting. Ultimately, by God's grace and calling, the perseverence and preservation of His Elect is evidenced by their steadfastness in the Lord Jesus Christ who is "the author and finisher of our faith." Verses from the Av1611 King James Bible used in this sermon include: Hebrews 12:1-3; 4:15; 12:7/ Isaiah 50:5-10; 1:4-6; 40:29-31/ Job 4:1-5; 8:13-15; 31:2-3/ Jeremiah 8:18/ Proverbs 24:10; 27:24/ Galatians 6:8-10/ Matthew 15:32/ Psalms 9:7; 72:17; 89:29; 30:5; 102:12,25-26/ Ezichial 22:14/ Mark 4:17/ 2 Thessalonians 1:4-5; 2:10/ 2 Timothy 2:3/ James 5:11/ 2 Corinthians 4:1-2
