Accountability isn't about control, it's about community and commitment. It's how we walk together in grace, truth, and humility. Honest community creates space for restoration, support, and growth. In this message, Steve Sauers unpacks the rhythm of accountability as part of God's design for discipleship. It restores us when we fall, helps carry one another's burdens, and keeps us humble before God. When we live in honest, grace-filled relationships rather than hiding and shame, we not only grow stronger in Jesus, but we show the watching world the beauty of the gospel.

Neil explores the profound impact of seemingly simple advice and observations on our personal and professional lives. Drawing from his extensive experience in the tutoring and coaching business, Neil reflects on the idea that "the way you do one thing is the way you do everything," emphasising how our habits and traits manifest across various aspects of our lives. KEY TAKEAWAYS The way you do one thing reflects how you do everything. Personal traits, such as being tidy or chaotic, often manifest in both personal and professional settings. The phrase "you never get a second chance to create a first impression" holds true. How you present yourself and your environment significantly influences how others perceive you. Your beliefs about yourself shape your actions. If you see yourself as organised and capable, you are likely to behave in ways that align with that self-image. People reveal their true nature through consistent actions over time. Honest individuals are consistently honest, while those who are chaotic in one area of life are likely to be chaotic in others. The state of your workspace can be a reflection of your overall approach to life and business. A cluttered environment may indicate a disorganised mindset, while a tidy space suggests control and efficiency. BEST MOMENTS "The way you do one thing is the way you do everything." "Your business is the way it is because of the way you are." "People eventually reveal who they are through their consistent actions." "If your home office is piled high with old coffee cups, does that track in other areas of your life too?" "You never get a second chance to create a first impression."

An Honest Account of Abortion - "Since Before Roe v. Wade: An Abortion Provider's Memoir" by Steven H. Eisinger, MD, FACOGSince Before Roe v. Wade was written with clarity, humor, and passion. This memoir presents an accurate picture of abortion to the public, including the medical and psychological realities for patients and providers, and fearlessly addresses the complex issues surrounding abortion. Numerous patient stories are presented to illustrate the many facets of abortion. Other aspects of pregnancy and childbirth, contraception, and gynecologic conditions and how they relate to abortion are discussed as well. These accounts explain technical issues to the public with the aid of vivid illustrations. Dr. Eisinger envisions his work becoming a useful source of information. In our current overheated national discussion about abortion, we need an accurate, compassionate, honest account of abortion-this is it!Steven H. Eisinger, MD, FACOG attended college at the University of Chicago, medical school at the University of Michigan, and residency in Ob Gyn at the University of Wisconsin. He then served as a Major in the Army for two years, delivering babies and doing abortions! Then, Dr. Eisinger accepted a position as an Assistant Professor at the University of Rochester (NY) Medical School in 1977, teaching Ob Gyn to resident physicians.Dr. Eisinger remained in Rochester for his entire career teaching, practicing, and conducting research, eventually retiring as Professor Emeritus in 2022. Throughout his career, Dr. Eisinger has dedicated himself to three main pursuits: providing obstetric and gynecologic care for underserved women, educating young doctors, and championing reproductive freedom, including abortion. Dr. Eisinger has performed abortions all his professional life, beginning in 1971, Since Before Roe v. Wade.Dr. Eisinger spoke at the 2024 NOW rally in Rochester, NY, to advocate for the continued availability of mifepristone, the abortion pill. He was an author of and was responsible for designing safety protocols for a nationwide scientific study on mifepristone. The study persuaded the FDA to approve mifepristone in 2000. Dr. Eisinger has since prescribed mifepristone for thousands of women. The abortion pill is safe and effective-he should know!He is a lifetime Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (FACOG). His hobbies include hiking, trail maintenance, golf, mountain climbing, and dealing in rare coins. Married with two adult children, he and his wife Sue celebrated their fifty-fifth anniversary in 2024.

Summary: In this episode, Michael sits down with author and pastor Chip Ingram to explore what it means to choose joy—especially when life feels heavy. Chip shares how biblical joy is more than an emotion; it's a deliberate choice rooted in Christ, not our circumstances. Drawing from Philippians, he describes Paul's example of rejoicing in chains and challenges listeners to shift their perspective from personal comfort to God's purposes. Chip also recounts his own battle with discouragement during COVID—how exercise, worship, and helping others lifted him from a dark place and unexpectedly sparked a global pastoral training initiative that reached hundreds of thousands. Together, Michael and Chip address the struggle many face in finding purpose later in life, especially after retirement. They outline practical ways to identify God-given passions and live on mission, no matter the season. Finally, Chip offers a compelling picture of biblical hope—not wishful thinking, but confident expectation in Christ's return and Eden restored. This eternal perspective reframes suffering and anchors our joy in what's ahead rather than what we see now. Takeaways: Biblical joy comes from Christ and must be intentionally chosen, not based on circumstances or emotions. Paul's example in prison shows that joy grows when we focus on God's purposes instead of our own comfort. Discouragement can be fought through practical steps like exercise, worship, and serving others. Our God-given purpose continues into every season of life, even after retirement. Honest community and accountability help clarify calling and sustain long-term joy.

Send us a textWhen I caught a glimpse of myself in some candid photos recently, I had a wake-up call that shook me. Between uniforms not fitting and comments that stung, I realized I needed clarity—the first step in creating any real change. In this episode, I share how uncomfortable moments can actually serve as the spark for transformation, and why clarity is so powerful in helping us finally move forward. Plus, I introduce Momentum, my 4-week reset designed for busy moms who are tired of starting over every Monday.Mentioned in this episode:

They revisit pivotal moments that tested and strengthened their bond—like the time Gary's big business deal fell through before their wedding and he gave Valeria the chance to walk away. Her response, “never say that to me again,” became a defining moment in their partnership. They talk about how they approach finances in a traditional way—Gary managing everything day-to-day while Valeria leans in with curiosity and questions—and the ways they don't always see eye to eye on how their values were worked out along the way. Together, they share lessons learned, laugh over the “ROI” of Valeria's nutrition degree that unexpectedly sparked her career in content creation, and offer advice for couples who struggle to have honest conversations about money. This episode is both vulnerable and lighthearted, pulling back the curtain on the realities of love, trust, and building a life together.

"We're getting into the end of Christi Lukasiak days on Dance Moms, and I'm feeling a type of way about it." reflects Christi as each week it becomes clearer and clearer the series of events that finally broke the camel's back. And on the first half of "Another One Bites the Dust" Abby is just adding fuel to that fire as she takes aim at Chloe's injury. Of course at this time Christi says they didn't even know what was wrong with Chloe's eye, so instead she offered-up the excuse of a foot injury so Chloe could make her hospital appointments. Abby of course is mad, go figure! If it wasn't bad enough that Abby would eventually make fun of Chloe's eye anyways, Chloe is close to actually injuring her foot as well! It's going to be a rough last couple of weeks for the Lukasiaks that's for certain.But if that wasn't bad enough, Abby decides the girls should get a lighter week before Nationals and assigns a Seven Dwarves themed group number. Aside from the fact they'll only have two days to rehearse the number, every girls is also given a cringe inducing character and outfit that's sure to help! However the bigger question on everyone's mind is who is going to make the cut for nationals? As if to stir the pot further Abby brings in Select Team alternate Kaleigh to join the group routine, leading Sarah R's mom Tracey to question if they're being edged out.Quotes“You showed your nipples on social media for your daughter! Just so she didn't! I went to jail for you AND I showed my nipples. Oh my god this is a nipple heavy episode." (08:24-08:40 | Christi & Kelly)“I need you to go back to just being Kelly in the dumpster. Wouldn't that be nice? I want to go back to that to." (17:50-17:56 | Christi & Kelly)“I need somebody with a degree to tell us what all of our mental health issues are." (22:16-22:24 | Christi)“I would say I'd be 'Honest'. Ok, that's not a dwarf name! You have to have a stupid name to be a dwarf."

We all want to grow in faith, but sometimes pride gets in the way. When you don't understand something about God, the Bible, or faith, it's easier to fake it than admit it. But real growth happens when you're honest about what you don't know. In this message, you'll see why God doesn't want you to pretend—you grow stronger when you admit your questions and seek understanding. Because honest Christians don't just show up to church—they ask, they learn, and they get it.Pastor Mike mentions this month's $125,000 Challenge Grant! Thanks to some generous friends of the ministry, that means your gift will go TWICE as far in helping us speak openly and biblically—and with grace and truth—about real life topics that many people avoid. And when you give, we want to send you Pastor Mike's new book: How to Talk Taboo: A Christian Guide to Honest Confession and Brave Confrontation. This book will show you how to face your fears, get to the other side of awkward, and bravely step into the freedom honesty brings. You'll learn that honesty leads to grace. It's the secret sauce for true Christian community. And it's how you experience the fullness of God's love. Learn more at timeofgrace.org.

In this concluding message of our Wise Up series, we explore why prayer remains essential in our hyper-connected world. Drawing from James’s practical wisdom and Jesus’s own example, we discover that prayer isn’t about performing for God or following religious formulas, but about finding clarity, perspective, and authentic connection with our Creator. The message addresses common questions about prayer’s effectiveness while offering insights into how prayer serves as a spiritual “diagnostic tool,” helping us see ourselves and our circumstances more clearly. Through biblical examples and contemporary applications, we learn that wisdom isn’t found in self-sufficiency, but in humble, honest communication with God – bringing our whole selves, including our doubts, fears, and failures, into His presence.

Daily Study: There is a popular expression that says, “Fake it until you make it.“ Some people have applied this concept to faith; however, you can't fake faith until you get it. Pretending to be in faith doesn't give you the power to receive the things you desire. Instead, be honest with God if you lack faith, and He will help you.
