How functional medicine leverages systems biology and epigenetic science to treat the microbiome and reverse chronic disease. Each body is a system within a system—an ecology within the larger context of social, political, economic, cultural, and environmental factors. This is one of the lessons of epigenetics, whereby structural inequalities are literally encoded in our genes.

My world changed forever the night I attended a party. Not just any party. A party for the rich and powerful elite. That's where I made the worst mistake of my life. I caught the attention of the perfect man. Kaden Raskova is Prince Charming in a finely tailored suit. Mysterious. Sophisticated. Impossibly handsome. He's taken a special interest in me and my musical talent. But there's something off that I cant quite put my finger on. Moments where I sense a monster behind the mask of a man. A predator that's luring his prey to his dungeon of cruel delights. That prey being me.

Across the church, there is a rift between theology and missions. Bad theology produces bad missions, and bad missions fuel bad theology. We wrongly think that we must choose between making a global impact and thinking deeply about the things of God. But the relationship between theology and missions is symbiotic—one cannot exist without the other. They walk hand in hand.

A cruel conqueror has captured the Spanish city of Fuente Ovejuna. As his reign of terror builds, the townspeople look within themselves to find the courage to overthrow him. The eminent Spanish playwright Lope de Vega based his best-known play on a historical incident that took place in 1476. Written in the early 17th century, the play remains a timely meditation on honor and selflessness in the face of oppression.

En 1476, los habitantes de una aldea andaluza llamada Fuente Ovejuna, hartos de soportar los abusos de su señor, se rebelaron unánimemente contra él. La rebelión acabó en asesinato, pero el pesquisador no pudo arrancar de las bocas de los aldeanos más que una única respuesta: «Fuente Ovejuna lo hizo». Frente a este admirable comportamiento se renunció a continuar la investigación dando por justa la venganza del pueblo. El famoso episodio fue recreado e inmortalizado por Lope siglo y medio después en una obra cuya tensión y fuerza dramática cautiva emocionalmente al lector.

"El caballero de Olmedo", basada en un hecho histórico que fue motivo de múltiples recreaciones artísticas –la muerte de don Juan de Vivero, caballero de Olmedo, a manos de su vecino Miguel Ruiz en 1521–, es una de las obras maestras de Lope de Vega, con un mecanismo poético y teatral que alcanza la perfección extrema. Amor y muerte son los ejes de esta "comedia" cuyo final deja un halo de escepticismo ante lo vano de la existencia.

Puede considerarse como una de las mejores comedias del teatro español del siglo XVII. El personaje central que es la condesa Diana de Belflor, mueve todos los hilos de la acción que tiene lugar entre continuos enredos, engaños y conflictos amorosos que reflejan unas inquietudes sexuales de los protagonistas, que van en contra de las convenciones sociales, la posición y el decoro.
