Trump & Mar-a-Lago, The Evolution of Free Speech & K-12's Tipping Point
Cwic Walk 8-12-22 Free speech advocacy has moved from the left to the right. How and why did this happen? K-12 will move very quickly to an environment unreasonable for reasonable parents. Each year will gain momentum, and the curve will increase. Everything is political theater. Regardless of your opinion of President Trump, the track record here is abysmal for investigations. We seem bent on creating a new US Banana Republic. Both the left and the right are quickly losing faith in our institutions. Website - www.cwicmedia.com

Come Follow Me LDS - Psalms Part 1- The Psalms Are The Israelite Temple Drama
Though Scrambled, The Psalms Are The Ancient Israelite Temple Drama This episode sets the stage for the 3-Part series on the Psalms. We cover the background of the archaeological finds that show the Psalms as the temple drama. Then, we introduce the three acts of the drama and show one of the Psalms and how an understanding of the drama completely changes how we read the Psalms. Understanding the Psalms as the ancient Israelite temple drama will enrich our own temple experience as well as other scripture studies. Website - www.cwicmedia.com

Cwic Walk - Google Babies, Philosophies of Men & Religion vs Spirituality
Cwic Walk 8-5-22 Google is the new parent, and we are now rearing Google Babies. Kids, both young and adults, are turning more to Google than their parents for advice. This creates a large divide on spiritual issues. The philosophies of men run rampant. They are a big part of the mist in Lehi's dream. A warning from President Nelson. Those who say they are "spiritual" but not religious have more mental illness, eating disorders, neuroticism, anxiety, and depression, according to a study in the British Journal of Psychology.

Tinder, LDS Dating & Singles Wards
Are Dating Apps Destroying LDS Dating and Society? Some fascinating data on men's and women's use of Tinder. Women "swipe right" an average of only 4.5% of male profiles while men "swipe right" an average of 60% of female profiles. What does this mean? What are the consequences? How does this relate to Latter-day Saint dating? Are singles wards a net positive or a net negative? Latter-day Saint YSA's have an 18% activity rate. Is this still the right course?

Come Follow Me LDS - Job Part 2
Not Compassion, Not Justice, But Faith Not Compassion, Not Justice, But Faith - Job moves back and forth from humility and commitment to contending and bitterness. This is a process we all go through. He is "wrestling" with the Lord. - Joseph Smith's words from Liberty Jail in D&C Sections 121 & 122 give great context to the Book of Job. - Compassion and Justice are not enough. The Lord wants your trust/faith and a deeper relationship with you. Website - www.cwicmedia.com

Spiritual Survival & The Therapy Gospel
Are Healing and Consolation All The Gospel Offers? A pendulum swing has occurred in Latter-day Saint culture. We have moved from high-demand, high expectations in the pursuit of the gospel to "healing" and focusing on crisis, anxiety, and consolation. But what is the message of the Gospel and the purpose of the Atonement? Is there an ideal beyond Spiritual Survival and a perpetual cycle of "woundedness?" Is our culture moving more toward a "Therapy Gospel?" There is an ideal that the Plan of Salvation placed affords us. It is attainable, and it is worth it. It goes far beyond Spiritual Survival and being healed. It is the opportunity that God has given us to become like Him, to inherit all that He has, and to fulfill the measure of our creation.
