   Parents of 60 million kids in America have failed to open Trump accounts for them so Scott Bessent just did it for them.  They are active.  All the parents have to do is log on and accept the account and their kids get money invested for the future.  This is SO good if we can teach people to save instead of borrow.    It's been a bad week for the Senate as the dems vote to keep insider trading alive for all of them and vote against a Ratepayer Protection Act to keep data centers in check.  Why are the dems in DC?  Just keep them at home because they will always vote NO on anything Trump and Republicans offer up.  Incredible.    An adopted 58 year old man in Missouri has an incredible story as he's learned the identity of his very famous birth dad.  Oh, what a fool believes.  You have to hear who it is.    A pair of Chiefs sweep the AFC Offensive Player and Rookie of the Month awards as KC gets ready to play the Raiders.  With a win, Andy Reid will take over first place for most wins of ANY coach in  Allegiant Stadium history.    College hoops coach John Calipari is upset that his players make more than his coaches, college football ratings are in a double digit dive and our Final Final is a freakout at a popular KC BBQ spot that some diners thought was in trouble when somebody walked in.

Adopted at 12, Found Her Father at 50: Jessie Elliott Reveals the Truth About Adoption, Trauma & IdentityTHE TRUTH ABOUT ADOPTIONLearn the mindset and moves that lead to real results.Visit: http://diversifiedgame.com/Today on Diversified Game, Kellen Coleman sits down with Jessie Elliott of The Hummingbird Lion for a powerful conversation about adoption, childhood trauma, race, identity, family separation, relationships, healing, and rebuilding your life.Jessie is Korean and Black and was adopted from South Korea at age 12 into a white evangelical family in Grand Rapids, Michigan.Her story includes separation from her biological family, life in an orphanage, childhood trauma, racial identity struggles, and survival patterns that followed her into adulthood.Then, at age 50, everything changed.After using AncestryDNA, Jessie connected with a cousin who helped lead her to the Black American father she had never known. She shares the emotional story of finally speaking with him and learning that he had never intentionally abandoned her.That reunion changed how Jessie understood her childhood, relationships, identity, and the direction of her life.Jessie also challenges traditional narratives surrounding adoption. She explains why adoption should remain child-centered, why prospective adoptive parents need to examine their motivations, and why understanding trauma can provide an explanation without becoming an excuse.As both an adoptee and the mother of an adopted Black son, Jessie brings a perspective that goes beyond simply being pro-adoption or anti-adoption.She discusses transracial adoption, international adoption, foster care, attachment, race, Korean adoption history, biological family reunification, and what she believes needs to change inside the adoption system.Jessie also explains how she returned to college in her 50s. At 52, she says she barely knew how to copy and paste.

What does it mean to truly belong when the earliest chapters of your life hold unanswered questions? This September on Born in June, Raised in April: What Adoption Can Teach the World, host April Dinwoodie sits down with journalist, writer, and AdoptMent mentor Siobhan Neela-Stock. Adopted from India at 1.5 years old and raised in rural Vermont alongside three adopted sisters, Siobhan spent much of her life believing her adoption didn't deeply impact her. But an ordinary moment watching her young niece unlocked an undeniable truth: our bodies, minds, and nervous systems hold early memory, attachment, and love that conscious memory cannot always access. In this candid, moving conversation, April and Siobhan unpack the intersection of race, identity, and international adoption. Siobhan discusses the contradictions of loving your adoptive family while aching for origins, confronting inaccuracies in adoption records, and her bold decision to launch an official search for her biological family in India through the Adoptee Rights Council.

I'm No Longer Being AdoptedJason Lyle spent over a decade behind a pulpit telling other men how to walk with God. The whole time, he was living a second life inside a sex addiction that started when he was ten years old, one that eventually cost him his marriage, his job, and nearly his life. His rock bottom was a night spent planning his own suicide.What pulled him back out wasn't another program to sit through. It was learning to regulate his own nervous system through cold water, breath work, and stillness, and rebuilding a life where who he actually is finally matches what everyone sees on the outside. Today he coaches men through that same process and leads them into the wilderness to learn what he had to learn the hard way: you are not in control, and that is exactly where healing starts.This episode touches sexual addiction, infidelity, and a disclosed history of suicidal thoughts.

Season 3, Episode 6In this episode, Michael and Zach continue their series through Galatians by examining Paul's movement from slavery to sonship in Galatians 4:1–11. Paul describes God's people under the Law as heirs who, while still under guardianship, function much like servants awaiting the time appointed by the Father. But when the fullness of time came, God sent His Son to redeem those under the Law and bring them into His family through adoption. The discussion explores what Paul means by the “elemental things of the world,” the significance of Christ being born under the Law, and the remarkable privilege of believers receiving the Spirit and crying, “Abba, Father.” Michael and Zach then examine Paul's warning that the Galatians' return to religious observance as a basis for righteousness is not spiritual progress but a return to slavery. The episode ultimately asks why Christians would try to gain through religious performance what God has already freely given them in Christ: sonship, belonging, and an inheritance.Find our videocast here: https://youtu.be/wgd9zqUite0Merch here: https://take-2-podcast.printify.me/Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):⁠https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stone⁠License code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at http://www.take2theology.com0:00 Opening Banter: Sprinting and “Train Like a Cheetah”8:17 Galatians 4 — From Slaves to Sons10:13 The Heir Who Lives Like a Slave12:18 What Are the “Elemental Things”?14:44 “When the Fullness of Time Came”18:43 Redeemed from Slavery and Adopted as Sons23:59 “Abba, Father” — Sons and Heirs27:03 Why Go Back to Slavery?33:07 Summary and Key Takeaways

Leah Sutterlin was adopted from China as a baby and raised in rural Canada alongside two younger sisters who were also adopted from China. In this episode of I'm Adopted: The Podcast, Leah reflects on growing up in a family where adoption was openly talked about, that relationship with her sisters, and the questions around identity and trying to understand more about those beginnings.She also shares how her own story eventually led her into adoption advocacy and storytelling, including her current work with the National Council For Adoption, as well as becoming a co-author of It's Okay to Talk About Adoption. Leah speaks openly about holding gratitude and grief at the same time, finding her own sense of identity, and why she believes every adoptee's experience deserves to be heard.

Two families living 3,000 miles apart discovered that their adopted daughters, Olivia Coogle and Emaline Ricketts, were actually identical twins after one mother spotted an unmistakable resemblance in a photo shared by an adoption group. Separated after being left at the same orphanage in China, the sisters reunited at just 22 months old and, now 20, have remained close despite growing up on opposite sides of the country, a reunion their family calls a miracle.

Many followers of Christ know they're saved but keep living like they're not. Galatians 4:4-7 reveals that God's plan to adopt believers into His family was intentional from the very beginning — adoption is always a choice, and God chose you on purpose. The Holy Spirit living inside you is God's seal, His declaration that you are His son or daughter. You're not a slave to fear. You're an heir of the kingdom of God.Stop living like an orphan when you have a seat at the table. You were wanted, you were chosen, and you are part of the family. Now live like it.

Father!” 16 The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,” Adoption is the highest privilege of the Christian life. To know cry out “Abba, Father” We are no longer slaves living in fear We are sons and daughters living within relationship A person can believe: God tolerates me God has legally pardoned me God is no longer angry All this while never experiencing the deeper reality of: God wants me as His child As we grow deeper in our relationship with God we no longer see him as Judge or King, but as Father Our Experience of Earthly Fathers Can Shape How We See God Our earliest understanding of fatherhood often influences our understanding of God For some, an earthly father may have modeled: Affection Protection Faithfulness Wisdom Presence For others, it may be: Distance Disappointment Harshness Absence Failure God is not limited by the failures of our earthly fathers God defines perfect fatherhood This matters because sometimes we project human weakness onto God: “My father was distant, so God must be distant” “My father was hard to please, so God must be hard to please” My father abandoned me, so eventually God will too” We need to allow God to correct distorted assumptions about what a father is Abba, Means Intimacy, Trust, and Dependence Rom. 8:15-16; Mark 14:36 “36 And he said, “Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.” Jesus himself called God “Abba, Father” not “Daddy” This is a very intimate way of addressing God: Trust Dependence Security Familiarity Relationship Jesus used this language in Gethsemane, at one of the darkest moments of His earthly life. Under unbearable pressure, Jesus approached the Father from a place of intimacy Through the Holy Spirit, believers are invited into that same relationship The Christian life is more than knowing truths about God.  We learn to pray as a child speaking to a Father, not as an employee presenting a report to a supervisor.  In Christ, We Share in the Father's Delight Mark 1:11 “1 And a voice came from heaven, “You are my beloved Son;[a] with you I am well pleased.” Matthew 3:17 “17 and behold, a voice from heaven said, “This is my beloved Son,[a] with whom I am well pleased.” At Jesus' baptism, the Father declares His love and pleasure in the Son.  “You are my Son. I love you. I am pleased with you. Because believers are adopted through Christ, we are welcomed into the relationship the Son enjoys with the Father. We become recipients of the Father's affection. We can know ourselves as: The object of God's love The focus of His care The recipients of His delight Full members of His family This is an important distinction. It is more than God forgives me. Its God delights in me.  Adoption goes beyond tolerance. God welcomes us with affection We learn to live from belovedness instead of constantly performing for approval. We Were Spiritual Orphans, but Christ Brought Us Home Gal. 4:4-7 “4 But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. 6 And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” 7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.” Jesus is the natural son of the Father. We become sons and daughters through adoption Sin made humanity spiritual orphans and separated us from the Father Christ came to restore that relationship The Son of God became human so that human beings could become children of God.(CS Lewis) Through Christ's sacrifice: Sin is forgiven The relationship is restored The Spirit enters our life We cry “Abba, Father” We are welcomed home This is the story of God acting in Christ to bring His list children home We stop living with an orphan mentality We no longer need to scramble for identity, security or belonging as though we are alone.  We have a Father Adoption Means We Are Heirs Rom. 8:17 “17 and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.” Paul says believers are: Heirs of God Co-heris with Christ We are promised: Resurrection bodies Renewed creation Freedom from death Freedom from suffering Eternal fellowship with God's family The greatest inheritance is God himself We do not inherit things from God We inherit life with God Our hope is much bigger than “going to heaven” Our destiny is to share eternity in the life, glory, and love of the Father, Son, and Spirit This is a mindset shift.  This allows us to hold earthly possessions and disappointments more loosely because our deepest inheritance cannot be lost.  Adoption Brings Us Back to What We Were Created For 1 John 3:1-2 “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 2 Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears[a] we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is.” John 17:24-26 “ Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world. 25 O righteous Father, even though the world does not know you, I know you, and these know that you have sent me. 26 I made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.” We talked about being made in God's image. We were created for relationship Sin shattered that relationship Grace pursued us Redemption paid the price Justification changed our standing Adoption brings us home Through the Holy Spirit, the image of God is being restored in us as we are brought back into relationship with the Father Salvation is not simply escaping punishment It opens the front door and welcomes us home It is the restoration of God's original intention for humanity Justification says: you are no longer condemned Adoption says: you belong here Questions When you think of God as Father, what emotions or assumptions immediately surface? How has your experience with your earthly father shaped your view of God? Is it hard to believe that God delights in me? Why? Calling God “Abba” does that change the way you pray? What would it look like to live as someone who is already at home with God?

 One thing good fantasy often has is the whole "prophecy" angle--and how it affects the folks involved. But what if, in addition to that, you also find out that who you thought you ARE... is all wrong?  Listen in as R. T. Ward and I chat about her book, Prophecy Changer. note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.  The creativity of God's people never ceaces to astound me, and this conversation was further proof of that. Prophecy Changer  by R. T. Ward Trauma has taken root in Thea's soul, leaving behind questions she can no longer silence. When long-buried memories begin to surface, the truth presses in demanding to be seen, felt, and faced. Adopted by the Mirascan people, Thea has always believed herself to be human. But as fragments of her past return, doubt follows. Drawn by questions she can't answer and a pull she can't explain, she steps beyond the only world she has ever known, hoping to uncover who she truly is. Her search leads her into the unknown and into the path of Ilan. Through him, Thea begins to unravel the lies that shaped her life, awakening a deep ache of anger, betrayal, and grief. What she uncovers changes everything. Caught in the center of a living prophecy, Thea learns of Creashu, the world of her origin, and the calling placed upon her life. As new gifts awaken within her, she must decide whether she will allow her pain to define her...or refine her. Determined to pursue truth, forgiveness, and the path set before her, Thea faces a choice that will alter more than her own destiny. The future of two worlds hangs in the balance, and the role she was born to fulfill can no longer be ignored. But becoming a Prophecy Changer was never meant to be easy.

Ethan Cesena was adopted from China at four and a half years old and raised in America. For much of his life, adoption was a word others used to describe him, but for Ethan it also brought questions about identity, family, culture, and where he came from. In April 2026, he returned to China with 17 other Chinese adoptees to learn more about his heritage and experience the country in a different way. In this episode, Ethan shares his story, what it was like growing up adopted, the questions he has carried over the years, and what returning to China meant to him.

SUMMARY Your words become your child's inner voice, for better or for worse. In this episode, Brent Silkey shares the practice he's kept without missing a single year — a handwritten letter to each of his four kids on every birthday, so that by graduation they'll hold an 18-year catalog of God's faithfulness over their life. Recorded in the pouring rain during Brent's 24-hour run for freedom, this conversation will challenge you to speak life over your family, stop settling for comfort, and take the next step you already know you need to take. TAKEAWAYS You can do hard things, or you can have hard things happen to you. Dads who train themselves — physically, spiritually, emotionally — build a reservoir their whole family draws from. Your words are the foundation blocks of your family's culture. Brent has written and read a letter to each of his four kids on every birthday, so by graduation they'll hold an 18-year catalog of God's faithfulness over their life. Big vision belongs to the whole family, not just to dad. Bike rides became park days, marathons became bake sales and jewelry stands, and the kids caught the heart without ever being told to. Freedom from pornography is one of the greatest gifts a dad can give. Shame keeps men isolated; rootedness in a real community — not a la carte Christianity — is where the healing starts. You'll never regret investing more in your family. You'll know your kids as adults far longer than you knew them as kids, so when they say "up," pick them up. QUOTES "By the time they graduate high school, they'll have a catalog of God's faithfulness over 18 years in these letters." "You can either do hard things or you can have hard things happen to you." "Do something you've never done to reach someone that's not yet been reached." "This is a family thing, not a Brent thing." "The most life-changing question outside of the gospel being shared was, What's my next obedience step?" "We can be people who speak life over our families, life over our kids. It really goes a long way." GUEST Brent Silkey is the founder of 30 for Freedom, a ministry mobilizing runners to rescue girls out of trafficking. He's completed 71+ marathons and ultras — including seven marathons on seven continents in seven days — and has helped raise more than $4.3 million for freedom. Brent also directs Chi Alpha at the University of St. Thomas and runs with UNRL. Adopted from South Korea as a baby, he and his wife live in Minnesota with their four kids: two daughters, 14 and 11, and two sons, 8 and 5. This fall he's taking on 40 for Freedom — running 40 miles for his 40th birthday and inviting 40 leaders to multiply the vision toward $300,000 raised in a single day.   LINKS Spartan Team DadAwesome, Dallas, Texas, October 17 https://givebutter.com/DallasSpartan Leave a VOICEMAIL: https://www.speakpipe.com/DadAwesome Join Team Awesomeness (monthly support team) at any level from $7/month to $1000/month...

Janice Jones was adopted in 1947 at age four-and-a-half months by charismatic doctor and surgeon, Ralph Beare, and his socialite wife, Lou, of Celina, Ohio. Jones grew up as a lonely, only, privileged child who found herself an outlier in her family and at school. While her adoption was no secret, discussing it was taboo. To be curious was to be ungrateful. When she was often reminded by those who admired her parents that she was a lucky girl to have been adopted by such wonderful parents, she could only smile while thinking, You don't know what it is like to live with them. As an adult, Jones has had a long career as a freelance writer and editor. She has also been a dog-obedience instructor, children's book buyer for a large, independent bookstore, and inventor of jigsaw puzzles that teach reading skills to children. The two things she values most in life are truth and connection to others. She considers the world at large to be her big, human family. Dr. Beare's Daughter: Growing Up Adopted, Adored, and Afraid is her fourth published book.

Pastor Rich Cundall and his wife Laurie adopted four children. Years later, all four were in crisis at the same time and Rich walked into his own board of elders and asked them to decide whether he was still fit to lead. He told them he hoped they would let him go. They said no. And the third reason they gave him changed how he understands leadership: "We need an example of what it looks like to walk through the valley of the shadow of death. What it looks like to be broken and still trust Christ." Sixteen years later, Rich is still the pastor at Hessel Church and he is careful to say that the story does not have a tidy ending. One of the four has been healed. The other three, in his words, are "still working on their testimonies." In this conversation, recorded in front of a live audience at Hessel Church during the NorCal Men's Summit, Rich and Jeremy talk about what it actually costs to lead through adversity: why the church's instinct to hide brokenness forfeits its credibility, why a leader has to build his team long before the crisis arrives, and why Rich believes the very thing you think disqualifies you is the thing God intends to use. "We impress people with our strengths. But we connect with people in our weakness."

Aaron LeDuc – Ephasians 1:3-14

If you've ever built something - a business, a family, a life - and wondered whether anyone else could see what you see, this episode is going to stop you cold.Angel Martinez grew up with nothing. Adopted, raised in the Bronx, running laps around the block because that was the only competition available to him. What he built from that starting point changed the way women see themselves in sport forever, and created industries that didn't exist until he decided they should.What you'll take away:●       Why women were the most underestimated market in athletic footwear history, and how Angel saw it before anyone else did.●       How Jane Fonda gave women permission to sweat, have muscles, and take up space, and why that single cultural shift built a billion-dollar industry.●       The origin story of the Reebok aerobics shoe and how Reebok went from $1.3 million to $1.6 billion in just a few years.●       The HOKA origin story and why ultramarathon runners were the unlikely heroes that made it credible.●       What Angel learned about company culture at Deckers and why a shared "why" is worth more than any perk or paycheck.●       Why leadership has nothing to do with having all the answers.●       What three failed retirement attempts taught him about identity, purpose, and what it means to really be done.This is not a business podcast episode. It's an honest, energizing conversation about drive, vision, and what it actually takes to build something that lasts, from someone who has done it, repeatedly, against the odds.If this episode resonated with you, share it with a builder who needs to hear it.

Elle is a baby-scoop-era domestic adoptee born in NYC in May of 1969. She was adopted 2 months later into what was supposed to be a stable, religious family. For as long as she could remember, she was aware that both she and her older brother were adopted, but the details ended there. It was understood that questions were not welcome regarding the story of their adoptions.  Growing up, Elle always knew she was radically different from her adoptive family, both physically and in personality and character. With violence and dysfunction in the home, ceasing somewhat when her adoptive father left the family when she was in grade school, she could never understand why people would say, “You should be grateful”.  This tumultuous upbringing and lack of familial connection fueled her years-long search for identity and her birth family. Encountering many twists and turns along the way as well as some heartache and joy, Elle was able to meet with some biological family members while being repeatedly rejected by others, a situation that continues to this day.  In a story that spans over 30 years, Elle was able to get most of the answers she was looking for and a small bit of closure. “Coming out of the fog” has allowed her to find healing and to assist others by sharing her story and lived experience. She is currently living in New York and working on a memoir, tentatively titled “Adopted AF – Confessions of a Mad Ungrateful Adoptee.”Elle on YouTube Season 12 Book: The Adoption Paradox by Jean Kelly Widner Eventbrite Link: Live Podcast Event in Minneapolis, MN, Sept. 11th-13th Sign up to be part of our mailing list!
