The “wall of hostility” symbolizes the religious, cultural, and spiritual divide between Jews and Gentiles, which Jesus dismantled through His sacrifice, enabling unity and reconciliation in the body of Christ. In Ephesians 2:14, the “ wall of hostility ” (or “dividing wall of hostility” in some translations) refers to the barrier that separated Jews and Gentiles in the context of the early Christian church. Is it still the same today? The phrase comes from the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, where he describes how Christ’s work has reconciled both groups to God and to each other. Here’s a clear explanation: Context : In Ephesians 2:11–22, Paul addresses Gentile believers, reminding them that they were once excluded from God’s covenant with Israel, described as being “without hope and without God in the world” (v. 12). The Jews, as God’s chosen people, had the Law, covenants, and temple worship, which created a spiritual and social divide between them and Gentiles. The Wall ...

I’m not doing that: Why we don't have enough school bus drivers and workers for other lackluster but essential positions

  Jobs traditionally considered “unskilled” are going unfilled for complex reasons—not for lack of worth, but because of mismatches in training, awareness, compensation, and workforce dynamics. The opportunities are there: better outreach, adjusted hiring requirements, and stronger pathways into training could help fill these roles. Key Insights from Recent Articles 1.  Unskilled Labor Shortages in Millions of Jobs As of September 2023, there were 9.5 million job openings in the U.S., while only 6.5 million workers were unemployed, leaving a gap of 3 million unfilled positions—many in sectors like hospitality, retail, construction, and manufacturing  . A combination of pandemic effects, declines in immigration, and workers reevaluating job preferences due to health, childcare, or retirement have contributed to fewer available workers for these roles. 2.  Manufacturing and Skilled Trade Shortages The manufacturing sector alone faces approximately 400,000 unfill...

Why People Feel on Edge: The Symbolism of the Upside-Down Flag

Image
Although no war is afoot, people are on edge, and the symbolism of the upside-down flag has been on display in many communities and online. It is directly tied to rumors of wars and war-like tensions, snubs on the international stage, mischaracterizations of world leaders’ actions, and bullying.  This leads to a nervous global populace, which sparks protests where inverted country flags are displayed. When we  spread anxiety-producing messages, the more anxiety we will receive in return. Generally, we’ve lived in a very quiet society up until now. Everyone was either on board or participating under duress or protest, but still participating in society. This is changing. There is a major shift—a sea change—in everything we hold dear in our country. Change is not necessarily bad, but fast change is disruptive, and people tend not to like that. The emotional temperature of the moment is reflected in the display of an upside-down flag. Why? Although no war has been declared,...
