Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Portland is the largest city in the U.S. state of Oregon and the seat of Multnomah County. It is a major port in the Willamette Valley region of the Pacific Northwest, at the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia rivers. As of 2017, Portland had an estimated population of 647,805, making it the 26th-largest city in the United States, and the second-most populous in the Pacific Northwest (after Seattle). Approximately 2.4 million people live in the Portland metropolitan statistical area (MSA), making it the 25th most populous MSA in the United States. Its Combined Statistical Area (CSA) ranks 18th-largest with a population of around 3.2 million. Approximately 60% of Oregon's population resides within the Portland metropolitan area.Named after Portland, Maine, the Oregon settlement began to be populated in the 1830s near the end of the Oregon Trail. Its water access provided convenient transportation of goods, and the timber industry was a major force in the city's early economy. At the turn of the 20th century, the city had a reputation as one of the most dangerous port cities in the world, a hub for organized crime and racketeering. After the city's economy experienced an industrial boom during World War II, its hard-edged reputation began to dissipate. Beginning in the 1960s, Portland became noted for its growing progressive political values, earning it a reputation as a bastion of counterculture.The city operates with a commission-based government guided by a mayor and four commissioners as well as Metro, the only directly elected metropolitan planning organization in the United States. The city government is notable for its land-use planning and investment in public transportation. Portland is frequently recognized as one of the world's most environmentally conscious cities because of its high walkability, large community of bicyclists, farm-to-table dining, expansive network of public transportation options, and over 10,000 acres (4,000 hectares) of public parks. Its climate is marked by warm, dry summers and cool, rainy winters. This climate is ideal for growing roses, and Portland has been called the City of Roses for over a century.
Hear the Voice of the Good Shepherd
Homily for May 12th, 2019 - Hear the Voice of the Good Shepherd
The sheep recognize the voice of their shepherd and they come running. They follow the shepherd who walks ahead of them, and the sheep trust their shepherd because he's always with them. He protects them, nurtures them, leads them to green pastures. Jesus is the Good Shepherd who calls to us, and calls us to eternal life with Him.
Key Takeaways:
-- The way to eternal life is to heed the voice of the Good Shepherd, Jesus, who comes along to call us home to live with Him and the Father and the Holy Spirit
-- Today, Jesus continues to be the Good Shepherd through his chosen apostles and those who succeeded them. Jesus continues to be visible in the world through his visible Church, but we need bishops and priests to make His voice heard.
-- Part of our task as believers is to help our young people find their vocation and to say yes to it. We need more priests to say yes to the voice of the Good Shepherd, so let us pray for more vocations - vocations from our own families, because they are out there and they're here at Christ the King.

Panel Discussion: People and the Land: Oregon Statewide Planning Goal 10 (2017)
In 2017, Sy Adler, Associate Dean of the School of Urban and Public Affairs at Portland State University, and Jim Irvine, planner with the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development and Metro, interviewed a series of key planners and advocates involved with Oregon's Statewide Planning Goal 10, which focuses on planning for and accommodating needed housing in the state.
On June 2, 2017, the project convened seven panelists to share their experience and perspectives on plans, projects, and policies focused on housing in Oregon and Goal 10 of Oregon's statewide land use plan. The panel participants were Bob Clay, Allen Johnson, Maryhelen Kincaid, Damian Syrnyk, Andree Tremoulet, John VanLandingham, and Greg Winterowd.
This oral history interview is part of People and the Land, a collaboration between the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development and Portland State University. For the complete oral history collection, please visit
The goal of this project is to document and preserve a record of Oregon’s land use program through the recording, transcription, collection and archiving of personal oral histories. The project is intended to enable Oregon’s statewide planning agency to make a significant, abiding contribution to the body of literature that records and analyzes the politics, policy, and practices that make Oregon's land use program unique.

Apostasy in Our Midst - Episode 8 - Worship & Church Growth
Ellen White warned that false music would be introduced into our churches just prior to the close of probation. That time has come. In an effort to make church attractive and for church growth, many Seventh-day Adventist churches have adopted Satan’s music. But what does God think about these worship services?
