Seminary is an important step toward ministry - but only when you make the most of it. Many seminarians finish their education with regrets and missed opportunities. They feel spiritually drained, they never connected with their professors or colleagues, they are plagued with a long list of “what ifs?”, and worry they wasted this time.

Mental prayer is a type of prayer that has traditionally been used by Catholics to draw closer to God by meditating on various aspects of the faith, such as heaven, the shortness of life, in addition to stories and parables in the Bible, and even simply contemplating on the face of Christ.

Joseph Simler gives an introduction to the practice in a simple question and answer format, moving from defining what mental prayer is, to dealing with difficulties such as distraction and aridity.

The epistle is the ninth book in the New Testament and is addressed to the Christians in Galatia, a region of Asia Minor (modern-day Turkey). In the letter, St. Paul addresses the controversy of the Mosaic law and how it applies to non-Jewish Christians. It is also notable for recording the controversy between Paul and Peter over "Judaizers".

If we've never entered the corporate world, we might believe it's full of respectable adults, professionals who know their craft, people who are responsible, and those who generally get the job done.

Cultures and Beyond - The Podcast Transcripts (The Art of World Building, Book 6) discusses techniques on inventing names, organizations for good and evil, and armed forces like the army, navy, and air (or space) force. An extensive look into creating cultures led to four detailed episodes on determining cultural vision, scope, origins, social classes, and the all-important customs that reveal culture. A similar deep dive into inventing magic systems examines the principles behind devising great ones and just what is meant by a law of magic and its applications.

I’m Leslie Kaufman, co-owner of KLeaning Services Unlimited. The name says it all, I guess. I’m used to pandering to the excesses of rich and eccentric clients. Billionaire Jack Morton fits the bill, for sure. He requests some rather unorthodox help from me. He needs to fool his mother into thinking he is engaged. To me.

Cheating is normal. That’s what Jane told herself, anyway. It happened all around her: her parents, couples in high school, and now, her own relationship. College is supposed to be different. Again, that’s what Jane told herself, but in her favorite class, she’s partnered with the one guy who has taken it twice before. Isn’t she cheating then? But he calls her sweetheart, and he sits so close.

Mental models are blueprints we are able to use in a variety of contexts to create sense of the world, interpret information correctly, and understand our context. They provide us predictable outcomes. A recipe may be the most basic type of mental model; each component has its role, period, and place. Nevertheless, a recipe isn't applicable to anything beyond your realm of food. Therefore, we find ourselves ready of attempting to learn a wide variety of mental versions (or latticework, as Charlie Munger places it) to get ready ourselves for whatever will come our method.

Some people call me an ice queen. It’s not ice. On the inside, I’m burning up. I’ve got so many things I want, and I can’t have any of them. And the one thing I don’t want, wants me more than anything. My name is Anya Talova, and people think I have it together. A handsome man is falling over himself to impress me. He’s got millions, a perfect body, the perfect smile. He wants nothing more than for me to fall all over myself accepting his proposals. But I don’t want him. I want the imperfect, scared one who won’t admit they love me.
