“That's taxpayer’s money that is going to support research and development and pilot projects to develop a food system that is based on environmental destruction and greed and disregard for animals, fish, and any of the other marine mammals that might be around it.” - Andrianna Natsoulas Andrianna Natsoulas is the campaign director for Don't Cage Our Oceans, an organization that exists to keep our oceans free from industrial fish farms. Offshore finfish farming is the mass cultivation of finfish in marine waters, in underwater or floating net pens, pods, and cages. Offshore finfish farms are factory farms that harm public health, the environment, and local communities and economies that rely on the ocean and its resources. Don’t Cage Our Oceans are a coalition of diverse organizations working together to stop the development of offshore finfish farming in the United States through federal law, policies, and coalition building. And, although it is not yet happening, right now the US Administration and Congress are promoting this kind of farming, which would be nothing short of disastrous for the oceans, the planet and the people and animals who live here. dontcageouroceans.org…
We follow how Luke adapts the themes of 1 Samuel as he announces the arrival of Jesus the King. We see how the Old Testament describes the role of the Queen Mother, and how lowly Mary is lifted into it. In all eras, God lifts up the lowly who are faithful to him, and so we are encouraged to hear and do God’s word to enter into the joy of his kingdom.

Having taken aim at several controversies in the Corinthians church, Paul now takes up the most concerning of them all, namely, some were denying the resurrection. Paul, with piercing logic, proves how the resurrection is not an optional extra but the heart of the gospel message, without which, the entire Christian faith falls apart like a wagon wheel with no lynch pin.…
Paul concludes his section on Spiritual gifts in the church by emphasizing that the gifts of the Spirit should be used to build up the church in an orderly manner. He instructs the Corinthians to avoid chaos by ensuring that everyone speaks in turn and that their contributions are constructive. He reminds them that this orderly worship reflects God’s nature of peace and promotes unity within the church body.…
Paul emphasizes the importance of prophecy as a spiritual gift that should be desired and valued. He explains to the Corinthians how prophecy has the power to build up the church body in more understandable ways than speaking in tongues. Unlike uninterpreted tongues, which benefit only the speaker, prophecy serves the entire community. He highlights that while prophecy is primarily a gift for believers, it can also bring non-believers toward salvation.…
In possibly the most famous passage in the whole New Testament, Paul urges the Corinthians, who were using spiritual gifts selfishly and for their own benefit, to adopt a radically different approach. He wants them to use spiritual gifts to serve others and not for personal gain, to shift from selfishness to selflessness to mirror Christ's love. He also stresses that while spiritual gifts are temporary, love is eternal, and we see the priority of love, the pattern of love and the permanence of love.…
Paul longs for the church to use the gifts of the Spirit, given graciously by God, for the unity and upbuilding of the church. He highlights God as a gracious gift giver and the Spirit as the one who exalts the name of Christ. Though there are many different kinds of gifts, they are from the same Spirit and are given for the common good of the body, which is the church.…
