God has been speaking about the **resistance at the gate**, so it's time to lean in and listen. We are at a pivotal moment in the body of Christ, and God is positioning us to possess the gates of our enemy. The abundance is here! God is drawing a hard line in the sand. There are some people, places, and things that "HE" is highlighting and in some cases removing us from. He is developing and sharpening our discernment to accurately divide the word of truth from what is disguised as truth.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/live-free-podcast/donations

A love so deep and unexpected, it hurts in all the right ways. I’m Cassandra Burke. Scientist. Scholar. Human outsider invited to the ancient Vampire city of Nivara to decipher ancient manuscripts. Lumière—my creation—lets vampires walk in the sun. But not everyone thinks that’s a good thing. Some call it freedom. Others call it a betrayal. Vampires are divided—those who crave the light, and those who worship the dark. Now cultists are rising. And the Ancients—banished monsters from a forgotten age—are stirring in their prison beneath Shadowkeep. Oh, and there’s one more ...

The Númenóreans altered the calendar of the Elves; Alan & James never could get the hang of Thursdays. Join The Man of the West and The Sage of the South as we practice only the best kind of pedantry in our exploration of Appendix D on the various intricate calendar systems in Middle-earth. The Elves are obsessed with sixes and twelves, the Númenóreans have to fix a millennial deficit — which has nothing to do with spending too much on Starbucks — and the Hobbits always do their own thing. We wonder if days not belonging to a month feel lonely, agree that 30-day months are best, and ...

The ultra-wealthy hover above the realities of the world around them like extraterrestrial aliens. Their material reality physically separates them from the rest of society with gated communities and private jets but paradoxically, their very wealth also severs them psychologically, unable to understand the reality of the 99%. Joining host Chris Hedges on this episode of The Chris Hedges Report is professor and author of Mastering the Universe: The Obscene Wealth of the Ruling Class, What They Do with Their Money, and Why You Should Hate Them Even More, Rob Larson. Larson begins by bringing...

في قلب عالمنا العربي، الذي كان يمر بفترة شبابه الواعد وربيع الأمل، كانت هناك قضية عظيمة تؤرق النفوس وتثير التساؤلات: "كيف نختلف؟". كان البعض يرى في الاختلاف شراً محضاً، باباً للفرقة والشيطان، ومصدراً للصراع المستمر الذي يهدد استقرار الأمة. كانوا يظنون أن الوحدة لا تكون إلا بوحدة الرأي المطلقة. لكن في هذا الوقت، ظهر حكيمٌ ومعلمٌ ...

"Nessuno è una cosa sola" è il secondo libro di Giovanni Luca Picariello, meglio conosciuto con il suo nome d'arte Ghemon. Fin dai suoi esordi si è sempre rivelata una persona camaleontica, iniziando a farsi conoscere come rapper, passando per la street art, il cantautorato e negli ultimi anni reinventandosi come stand-up comedian. Ed è proprio la capacità di sapersi reinventare che sta al centro del suo libro, che non è una biografia, ma si ispira a episodi della sua vita. Al Mestre Book Fest Matilde ha avuto il piacere di scambiare qualche parola con l'artista, partendo dai temi ...

Send us a textIt's June! This means that we discuss a book hand-selected from the list by Rebecca.The last time she did this, she selected The Book of Illusions, a novel she had never read that was written by a novelist she admires. She took a wholly different approach this time: couple the desire to read a writer she had never experienced before with the realization that we almost never read books by women. The end result was Play It As It Lays by Joan Didion. Considered one of the classic "Los Angeles novels", the nihilistic content of this book certainly left us with much to discuss.
