Welcome to Day 2015 of  Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom The Book of Proverbs – Chapter 6 – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, but my grandkids call me Gramps. We are on Day 2015 of our Trek. One habit I have practiced nearly every day for the past 45+ years of my adult life is to read the chapter in the book of Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. This single habit has been the catalyst for gaining wisdom and creating a living legacy. Adopting this habit can do the same for your life. The realization that God's Wisdom is the only true wisdom drives me to seek God's wisdom each day, and there is no better way to do this than to meditate on God's book of Wisdom. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Proverbs 6. The Book of Proverbs - Chapter 6 Lessons for Daily Life 6 My child,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%206&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16518a (a)] if you have put up security for a friend's debt     or agreed to guarantee the debt of a stranger— 2 if you have trapped yourself by your agreement     and are caught by what you said— 3 follow my advice and save yourself,     for you have placed yourself at your friend's mercy. Now swallow your pride;     go and beg to have your name erased. 4 Don't put it off; do it now!     Don't rest until you do. 5 Save yourself like a gazelle escaping from a hunter,     like a bird fleeing from a net. 6 Take a lesson from the ants, you lazybones. Learn from their ways and become wise! 7 Though they have no prince or governor or ruler to make them work, 8 they labor hard all summer, gathering food for the winter. 9 But you, lazybones, how long will you sleep? When will you wake up? 10 A little extra sleep, a little more slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest— 11 then poverty will pounce on you like a bandit; scarcity will attack you like an armed robber. 12 What are worthless and wicked people like? They are constant liars, 13 signaling their deceit with a wink of the eye, a nudge of the foot, or the wiggle of fingers. 14 Their perverted hearts plot evil, and they constantly stir up trouble. 15 But they will be destroyed suddenly, broken in an instant beyond all hope of healing. 16 There are six things the Lord hates— no, seven things he detests: 17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that kill the innocent, 18 a heart that plots evil, feet that race to do wrong, 19 a false witness who pours out lies, a person who sows discord in a family. 20 My son, obey your father's commands, and don't neglect your mother's instruction. 21 Keep their words always in your heart. Tie them around your neck. 22 When you walk, their counsel will lead you. When you sleep, they will protect you. When you wake up, they will advise you. 23 For their command is a lamp and their instruction a light; their corrective discipline is the way to life. 24 It will keep you from the immoral woman, from the smooth tongue of a promiscuous woman. 25 Don't lust for her beauty. Don't let her coy glances seduce you. 26 For a prostitute will bring you to poverty,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%206&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16543b (b)] but sleeping with another man's wife will cost you your life. 27 Can a man scoop a flame into his lap and not have his clothes catch on fire? 28 Can he walk on hot coals and not blister his feet? 29 So it is with the man who sleeps with another man's wife. He who embraces her will not go unpunished. 30 Excuses might be found for a thief who steals because he is starving. 31 But if he is caught, he must pay back seven times what he stole, even if he has to sell everything in...

Sermon by Rabbi Ari Lorge, "Jewish Optimism: Adopting our God's-Eye-View"October 5, 2022

Episode 6 of 22Adopting Success: ZamukeleIn this episode of ‘We've bean around the block', host Antony Jarvie discusses the Zamukele project with Success Mdluli of the Schoeman Group. Zamukele is a Zulu word that means ‘adopt', and it is a platform that the Schoeman Group have developed to adopt small-scale farmers into their canning bean enterprise. After an initial screening process, successful applicants to the scheme are assisted with agronomic support, seed and fertilizer inputs to begin their small white canning bean production. Once the harvested crop is delivered back to the Schoeman Group, the costs of the inputs are paid off and the profit is returned to the farmer. It is in essence a private sector initiative to assist small-scale farmers to access finance for their production. Without land ownership, small-scale farmers have no access to the formal banking sector for production loans. This remains a hurdle that the government has been unable to address adequately. Agribusinesses wishing to support the Schoeman Group by carrying some of the risk related to inputs in this project, can get in contact with Success Mdluli via email (success@witklip.co.za) for details. 

Welcome to Day 2014 of  Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom The Book of Proverbs – Chapter 5 – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, but my grandkids call me Gramps. We are on Day 2014 of our Trek.

The Book of Proverbs - Chapter 5 Avoid Immoral Women 5 My son, pay attention to my wisdom; listen carefully to my wise counsel. 2 Then you will show discernment, and your lips will express what you've learned. 3 For the lips of an immoral woman are as sweet as honey, and her mouth is smoother than oil. 4 But in the end she is as bitter as poison, as dangerous as a double-edged sword. 5 Her feet go down to death; her steps lead straight to the grave.[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%205&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16499a (a)] 6 For she cares nothing about the path to life. She staggers down a crooked trail and doesn't realize it. 7 So now, my sons, listen to me. Never stray from what I am about to say: 8 Stay away from her! Don't go near the door of her house! 9 If you do, you will lose your honor and will lose to merciless people all you have achieved. 10 Strangers will consume your wealth, and someone else will enjoy the fruit of your labor. 11 In the end you will groan in anguish when disease consumes your body. 12 You will say, “How I hated discipline! If only I had not ignored all the warnings! 13 Oh, why didn't I listen to my teachers? Why didn't I pay attention to my instructors? 14 I have come to the brink of utter ruin, and now I must face public disgrace.” 15 Drink water from your own well— share your love only with your wife.[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%205&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16509b (b)] 16 Why spill the water of your springs in the streets, having sex with just anyone?[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%205&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16510c (c)] 17 You should reserve it for yourselves. Never share it with strangers. 18 Let your wife be a fountain of blessing for you. Rejoice in the wife of your youth. 19 She is a loving deer, a graceful doe. Let her breasts satisfy you always. May you always be captivated by her love. 20 Why be captivated, my son, by an immoral woman, or fondle the breasts of a promiscuous woman? 21 For the Lord sees clearly what a man does, examining every path he takes. 22 An evil man is held captive by his own sins; they are ropes that catch and hold him. 23 He will die for lack of self-control; he will be lost because of his great foolishness.

So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Proverbs 4. The Book of Proverbs - Chapter 4 A Father's Wise Advice 4 My children,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%204&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16468a (a)] listen when your father corrects you. Pay attention and learn good judgment, 2 for I am giving you good guidance. Don't turn away from my instructions. 3 For I, too, was once my father's son, tenderly loved as my mother's only child. 4 My father taught me, “Take my words to heart. Follow my commands, and you will live. 5 Get wisdom; develop good judgment. Don't forget my words or turn away from them. 6 Don't turn your back on wisdom, for she will protect you. Love her, and she will guard you. 7 Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do! And whatever else you do, develop good judgment. 8 If you prize wisdom, she will make you great. Embrace her, and she will honor you. 9 She will place a lovely wreath on your head; she will present you with a beautiful crown.” 10 My child,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%204&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16477b (b)] listen to me and do as I say, and you will have a long, good life. 11 I will teach you wisdom's ways and lead you in straight paths. 12 When you walk, you won't be held back; when you run, you won't stumble. 13 Take hold of my instructions; don't let them go. Guard them, for they are the key to life. 14 Don't do as the wicked do, and don't follow the path of evildoers. 15 Don't even think about it; don't go that way. Turn away and keep moving. 16 For evil people can't sleep until they've done their evil deed for the day. They can't rest until they've caused someone to stumble. 17 They eat the food of wickedness and drink the wine of violence! 18 The way of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, which shines ever brighter until the full light of day. 19 But the way of the wicked is like total darkness. They have no idea what they are stumbling over. 20 My child, pay attention to what I say. Listen carefully to my words. 21 Don't lose sight of them. Let them penetrate deep into your heart, 22 for they bring life to those who find them, and healing to their whole body. 23 Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. 24 Avoid all perverse talk; stay away from corrupt speech. 25 Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you. 26 Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. 27 Don't get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil.  As you ponder Proverbs 4, please encourage your friends and family to join us and come along tomorrow for another day of ‘Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.'

Adopting a policy to end streaming in schools is on the agenda for the secondary teachers union today. Streaming is when students are grouped into different classes based on perceived ability. The Post Primary Teachers Association is discussing it at its annual conference today and has recommended members push for resourcing to end the practice by 2030. President Melanie Webber says it causes harm to young people. She says it stops students from being able to access education and encourages them to make decisions about pathways very early on.

Today I will read Proverbs 3.   The Book of Proverbs - Chapter 3 Trusting in the Lord 3 My child,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%203&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16433a (a)] never forget the things I have taught you. Store my commands in your heart. 2 If you do this, you will live many years, and your life will be satisfying. 3 Never let loyalty and kindness leave you! Tie them around your neck as a reminder. Write them deep within your heart. 4 Then you will find favor with both God and people, and you will earn a good reputation. 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. 6 Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. 7 Don't be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil. 8 Then you will have healing for your body and strength for your bones. 9 Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the best part of everything you produce. 10 Then he will fill your barns with grain, and your vats will overflow with good wine. 11 My child, don't reject the Lord's discipline, and don't be upset when he corrects you. 12 For the Lord corrects those he loves, just as a father corrects a child in whom he delights.[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%203&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16444b (b)] 13 Joyful is the person who finds wisdom, the one who gains understanding. 14 For wisdom is more profitable than silver, and her wages are better than gold. 15 Wisdom is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. 16 She offers you long life in her right hand, and riches and honor in her left. 17 She will guide you down delightful paths; all her ways are satisfying. 18 Wisdom is a tree of life to those who embrace her; happy are those who hold her tightly. 19 By wisdom the Lord founded the earth; by understanding he created the heavens. 20 By his knowledge the deep fountains of the earth burst forth, and the dew settles beneath the night sky. 21 My child, don't lose sight of common sense and discernment. Hang on to them, 22 for they will refresh your soul. They are like jewels on a necklace. 23 They keep you safe on your way, and your feet will not stumble. 24 You can go to bed without fear; you will lie down and sleep soundly. 25 You need not be afraid of sudden disaster or the destruction that comes upon the wicked, 26 for the Lord is your security. He will keep your foot from being caught in a trap. 27 Do not withhold good from those who deserve it when it's in your power to help them. 28 If you can help your neighbor now, don't say, “Come back tomorrow, and then I'll help you.” 29 Don't plot harm against your neighbor, for those who live nearby trust you. 30 Don't pick a fight without reason, when no one has done you harm. 31 Don't envy violent people or copy their ways. 32 Such wicked people are detestable to the Lord, but he...

From his mouth come knowledge and understanding. 7 He grants a treasure of common sense to the honest. He is a shield to those who walk with integrity. 8 He guards the paths of the just and protects those who are faithful to him. 9 Then you will understand what is right, just, and fair, and you will find the right way to go. 10 For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will fill you with joy. 11 Wise choices will watch over you. Understanding will keep you safe. 12 Wisdom will save you from evil people, from those whose words are twisted. 13 These men turn from the right way to walk down dark paths. 14 They take pleasure in doing wrong, and they enjoy the twisted ways of evil. 15 Their actions are crooked, and their ways are wrong. 16 Wisdom will save you from the immoral woman, from the seductive words of the promiscuous woman. 17 She has abandoned her husband and ignores the covenant she made before God. 18 Entering her house leads to death; it is the road to the grave.[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%202&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16428b (b)] 19 The man who visits her is doomed. He will never reach the paths of life. 20 So follow the steps of the good, and stay on the paths of the righteous. 21 For only the godly will live in the land, and those with integrity will remain in it. 22 But the wicked will be removed from the land, and the treacherous will be uprooted.

Welcome to Day 2010 of  Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom The Book of Proverbs - Chapter 1 – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, but my grandkids call me Gramps. We are on Day 2010 of our Trek. One habit I have practiced nearly every day for the past 45+ years of my adult life is to read the chapter in the book of Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. This single habit has been the catalyst for gaining wisdom and creating a living legacy. Adopting this habit can do the same for your life. The realization that God's Wisdom is the only true wisdom drives me to seek God's wisdom each day, and there is no better way to do this than to meditate on God's book of Wisdom. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Proverbs 1.   The Book of Proverbs - Chapter 1 1 These are the proverbs of Solomon, David's son, king of Israel. 2 Their purpose is to teach people wisdom and discipline, to help them understand the insights of the wise. 3 Their purpose is to teach people to live disciplined and successful lives, to help them do what is right, just, and fair. 4 These proverbs will give insight to the simple, knowledge and discernment to the young. 5 Let the wise listen to these proverbs and become even wiser. Let those with understanding receive guidance 6 by exploring the meaning in these proverbs and parables, the words of the wise and their riddles. 7 Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline. A Father's Exhortation: Acquire Wisdom 8 My child,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%201&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16385a (a)] listen when your father corrects you. Don't neglect your mother's instruction. 9 What you learn from them will crown you with grace and be a chain of honor around your neck. 10 My child, if sinners entice you, turn your back on them! 11 They may say, “Come and join us. Let's hide and kill someone! Just for fun, let's ambush the innocent! 12 Let's swallow them alive, like the grave[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%201&version=NLT#fen-NLT-16389b (b)]; let's swallow them whole, like those who go down to the pit of death. 13 Think of the great things we'll get! We'll fill our houses with all the stuff we take. 14 Come, throw in your lot with us; we'll all share the loot.” 15 My child, don't go along with them! Stay far away from their paths. 16 They rush to commit evil deeds. They hurry to commit murder. 17 If a bird sees a trap being set, it knows to stay away. 18 But these people set an ambush for themselves; they are trying to get themselves killed. 19 Such is the fate of all who are greedy for money; it robs them of life. Wisdom Shouts in the Streets 20 Wisdom shouts in the streets. She cries out in the public square. 21 She calls to the crowds along the main street, to those gathered in front of the city gate: 22 “How long, you simpletons, will you insist on being simpleminded? How long will you mockers relish your mocking? How long will you fools hate knowledge? 23 Come and listen to my counsel. I'll share my heart with you and make you wise. 24 “I called you so often, but you wouldn't come. I reached out to you, but you paid no attention. 25 You ignored my advice and rejected the correction I offered. 26 So I will laugh when you are in trouble! I will mock you when disaster overtakes you— 27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster engulfs you like a cyclone, and anguish and distress overwhelm you. 28 “When they cry for help, I will not answer. Though they anxiously search for me, they will not find me. 29 For they hated...

Like so many advocates, Nancy came to this space after caring for her parents in their advanced years. However, a family history steeped in loss from an early age prepared her than most. She was already well advised about knowing the important information, where to find said information and how to proceed in the difficult medical situations that arise. But what she was not necessarily prepared for was discovering systemic missteps that unintentionally occurred as her parents aged. In the process she was able to save her parents over $200,000/year, unraveling financial, legal, medical and homecare fraud and abuse. Nancy's view of her role of family caregiver is one worth hearing. She was able to apply the lessons she learned from her entrepreneurial father with her own corporate experience to approach the caregiving role like a CEO of a small business. No doubt the caregiving experience takes its emotional and psychological toll. Adopting a CEO mindset can be helpful in organizing all that needs to be done and remaining calm amidst the myriad of medical care and logistic decisions that need to be made.

We are on Day 2009 of our Trek. We are transitioning in the structure of Wisdom-Trek to focus on the great wisdom books of the Bible. One habit I have practiced nearly every day for the past 45+ years of my adult life is to read the chapter in the book of Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. This single habit has been the catalyst for gaining wisdom and creating a living legacy. Adopting this habit can do the same for your life. So, beginning October 1st, I will start publishing the reading of the chapter in Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. Before that, I am reading through the book of Ecclesiastes. King Solomon, who wrote both Ecclesiastics and Proverbs, was the wisest person to live. He wrote Ecclesiastes late in his life, after trying many other paths to wisdom, and then he was brought back to the realization that God's Wisdom is the only true wisdom. This realization is what drives me to seek out God's wisdom each day. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Ecclesiastes 12, which is the final chapter, and I have titled this chapter: Remember Your Creator 1 Don't let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor him in your youth before you grow old and say, “Life is not pleasant anymore.” 2 Remember him before the light of the sun, moon, and stars is dim to your old eyes, and rain clouds continually darken your sky. 3 Remember him before your legs—the guards of your house—start to tremble; and before your shoulders—the strong men—stoop. Remember him before your teeth—your few remaining servants—stop grinding; and before your eyes—the women looking through the windows—see dimly. 4 Remember him before the door to life's opportunities is closed and the sound of work fades. Now you rise at the first chirping of the birds, but then all their sounds will grow faint. 5 Remember him before you become fearful of falling and worry about danger in the streets; before your hair turns white like an almond tree in bloom, and you drag along without energy like a dying grasshopper, and the caperberry no longer inspires sexual desire. Remember him before you near the grave, your everlasting home, when the mourners will weep at your funeral. 6 Yes, remember your Creator now while you are young, before the silver cord of life snaps and the golden bowl is broken. Don't wait until the water jar is smashed at the spring and the pulley is broken at the well. 7 For then the dust will return to the earth, and the spirit will return to God who gave it. Concluding Thoughts about the Teacher 8 “Everything is meaningless,” says the Teacher, “completely meaningless.” 9 Keep this in mind: The Teacher was considered wise, and he taught the people everything he knew. He listened carefully to many proverbs, studying and classifying them. 10 The Teacher sought to find just the right words to express truths clearly.[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes+12&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17510a (a)] 11 The words of the wise are like cattle prods—painful but helpful. Their collected sayings are like a nail-studded stick with which a shepherd[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes+12&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17511b (b)] drives the sheep. 12 But, my child,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes+12&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17512c (c)] let me give you some further advice: Be careful, for writing books is endless, and much study wears you out. 13 That's the whole story. Here now is my final conclusion: Fear God and obey his commands, for this is everyone's...

Diversity Matters with Oscar Holmes IV Season 3 Episode 7 Episode Title: Shared Sisterhood Guest: Dr. Tina Opie   Diversity Matters with Oscar Holmes IV is a podcast that explores all things diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) related. In each episode, Oscar and his guests have lively discussions around DEI topics, explore the latest research on the topic, and discuss the implications so that listeners will be more knowledgeable about the topics and be able to apply the insights to their lives.   Show Summary: “This is what Black women know: When push comes to shove, white women choose race over gender - every single time.” - Kim McLarin   Whether we admit it or not, gender and racial bias is still present in the organizations and in society. And though the past few decades have shown progress, there's so much improvement to be done, especially with black and other colored women experiencing more disadvantages compared to their white counterparts.   Dr. Tina Opie is an award-winning researcher, professor  and management consultant who combines theory and practice on the power of authenticity and how to create a more diverse, inclusive and equitable workplace in several industries.    In this episode, she shares about her upcoming book ”Shared Sisterhood”, co-authored with Dr. Beth Ann Livingston. Dissecting through the lens of history, research and real-life examples of the white women privilege, the racial stereotypes that even accomplished black women experience, overcoming racial trauma, and the vision of all linking arms towards equality in the workplace and the world. Exceptional Highlights:   White women choose race over gender because of the way power structures our society. Being white women gives proximity to white men, who are the power brokers and holders throughout the history of the world.    The central focus and philosophy behind Shared Sisterhood is the value of equity and power in the workplace, which is quite distinct from friendship. For systemic change to happen for all women, it also needs to translate across races.   In capitalist society, people are greedy and power is structured as a zero sum game. Everything gained by others is a loss for them.   Show Highlights: Definition of Shared Sisterhood   06:06 Dr. Tina Opie   Shared sisterhood is when you work together across differences, develop authentic connections, and then link arms and work to dismantle systemic inequity.   The Dig and Bridge Framework forming authentic workplace relationships   07:38 Dr. Tina Opie   Dig is about surfacing the assumptions that you have about identity. How did you come to think about your own race, your ethnicity, the ethnicity of other people? Bridge is about authentically connecting with people and keeping that connection authentic.    What is an ally, accomplice, and co-conspirator   20:06 Dr. Tina Opie   An ally believes in equity in theory but they're not about to sacrifice anything. The next level is an accomplice who believes in equity and is willing to make a sacrifice and do something, but it tends to be on their own terms and not aligned with the needs of the group that they are fighting for. A co-conspirator pursues collective action by using his social, financial and political capital to make change. Men's role in this movement   37:38 Dr. Tina Opie   Masculine traits like assertiveness, being tall, and stomping your fist are seen as necessary to get ahead. Adopting feminine values like empathy, authenticity, vulnerability, and risk-taking for the common good produces the kind of leaders that are needed more in the workplace.   Important Links:   Call to Action: Subscribe to Diversity Matters and get exclusive access to all episodes of Beyond the Mill, which is my live diversity dialogues talk show that I host on campus at Rutgers University-Camden.    Episode Sponsor Links:    Producer Links:   Host Social Media Links:   Subscribe to Diversity Matters  Apple | Google | Spotify | Stitcher 

Children should feel unconditionally valued and accepted regardless of birth circumstance, race, or ability— Trisha Campbell and her family rose to this challenge and adopted five hungry orphans.  Trisha had three biological children but decided to ignore the stigma of white families adopting multi-racial children.  Trisha K. Campbell is a mother, author, and advocate. After questioning her faith and volunteering in a third-world country, Trisha realized her true calling and God's purpose for her life. A blended family with several special needs children came with many challenges. During her interview, Trisha shares the pain, struggle, setbacks, and rewards of adopting and caring for a transracial family.  

Welcome to Day 2008 of  Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom The Uncertainties Of Life – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 2008 of our Trek. We are transitioning in the structure of Wisdom-Trek to focus on the great wisdom books of the Bible.

So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Ecclesiastes 11, and I have titled this chapter: The Uncertainties Of Life 1Send your grain across the seas, and in time, profits will flow back to you.[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%2011&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17491a (a)] 2 But divide your investments among many places,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%2011&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17492b (b)] for you do not know what risks might lie ahead. 3 When clouds are heavy, the rains come down. Whether a tree falls north or south, it stays where it falls. 4 Farmers who wait for perfect weather never plant. If they watch every cloud, they never harvest. 5 Just as you cannot understand the path of the wind or the mystery of a tiny baby growing in its mother's womb,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%2011&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17495c (c)] so you cannot understand the activity of God, who does all things. 6 Plant your seed in the morning and keep busy all afternoon, for you don't know if profit will come from one activity or another—or maybe both. Advice for Young and Old 7 Light is sweet; how pleasant to see a new day dawning. 8 When people live to be very old, let them rejoice in every day of life. But let them also remember there will be many dark days. Everything still to come is meaningless. 9 Young people,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%2011&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17499d (d)] it's wonderful to be young! Enjoy every minute of it. Do everything you want to do; take it all in. But remember that you must give an account to God for everything you do. 10 So refuse to worry, and keep your body healthy. But remember that youth, with a whole life before you, is meaningless. As you ponder this chapter covering The Uncertainties of Life, please encourage your friends and family to join us and come along tomorrow for another day of ‘Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.'

When teams, and organizations start on their Agile adoption journey, Pedro observes, they often lack the ability to grasp what needs to be different in the team and the organization beyond the “simple” process change. In this episode, we talk about a team that started their Agile journey on the wrong foot, and discuss what Scrum Masters can do to help teams grasp what “else” need to be different.    About Pedro Silva Pedro considers himself a Scrum Master supporting software development teams while keeping his focus on their growth towards the efficient delivery of value, while having a blast.

Adopting technology solutions that have a no-code or low-code approach makes sense for healthcare organizations right now as the industry continues to grapple with workforce challenges. This is especially true when considering form solutions that capture patient information. Healthcare IT Today sat down with Cedric Savarese, Founder and CEO of FormAssembly, a company that makes a secure, HIPAA compliant forms platform that is easy enough for end-users to maintain, to find out more about forms, forms management, and why healthcare IT leaders should not overlook how forms are used in their organizations.

Welcome to Day 2007 of  Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom The Ironies Of Life – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps.

So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Ecclesiastes 10, and I have titled this chapter: The Ironies Of Life 1As dead flies cause even a bottle of perfume to stink, so a little foolishness spoils great wisdom and honor. 2 A wise person chooses the right road; a fool takes the wrong one. 3 You can identify fools just by the way they walk down the street! 4 If your boss is angry at you, don't quit! A quiet spirit can overcome even great mistakes. The Ironies of Life 5 There is another evil I have seen under the sun. Kings and rulers make a grave mistake 6 when they give great authority to foolish people and low positions to people of proven worth. 7 I have even seen servants riding horseback like princes—and princes walking like servants! 8 When you dig a well, you might fall in. When you demolish an old wall, you could be bitten by a snake. 9 When you work in a quarry, stones might fall and crush you. When you chop wood, there is danger with each stroke of your ax. 10 Using a dull ax requires great strength, so sharpen the blade. That's the value of wisdom; it helps you succeed. 11 If a snake bites before you charm it, what's the use of being a snake charmer? 12 Wise words bring approval, but fools are destroyed by their own words. 13 Fools base their thoughts on foolish assumptions, so their conclusions will be wicked madness; 14     they chatter on and on. No one really knows what is going to happen; no one can predict the future. 15 Fools are so exhausted by a little work that they can't even find their way home. 16 What sorrow for the land ruled by a servant,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%2010&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17486a (a)] the land whose leaders feast in the morning. 17 Happy is the land whose king is a noble leader and whose leaders feast at the proper time to gain strength for their work, not to get drunk. 18 Laziness leads to a sagging roof; idleness leads to a leaky house. 19 A party gives laughter, wine gives happiness, and money gives everything! 20 Never make light of the king, even in your thoughts. And don't make fun of the powerful, even in your own bedroom. For a little bird might deliver your message and tell them what you said.  As you ponder this chapter covering Thoughts On Wisdom And Folly, please encourage your friends and family to join us and come along tomorrow for another day of ‘Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.'

Welcome to Day 2006 of  Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Thoughts On Wisdom And Folly – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 2006 of our Trek. We are transitioning in the structure of Wisdom-Trek to focus on the great wisdom books of the Bible.

This realization is what drives me to seek out God's wisdom each day. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Ecclesiastes 9, and I have titled this chapter: Thoughts On Wisdom And Folly Death Comes to All 1This, too, I carefully explored: Even though the actions of godly and wise people are in God's hands, no one knows whether God will show them favor. 2 The same destiny ultimately awaits everyone, whether righteous or wicked, good or bad,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%209&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17454a (a)] ceremonially clean or unclean, religious or irreligious. Good people receive the same treatment as sinners, and people who make promises to God are treated like people who don't. 3 It seems so wrong that everyone under the sun suffers the same fate. Already twisted by evil, people choose their own mad course, for they have no hope. There is nothing ahead but death anyway. 4 There is hope only for the living. As they say, “It's better to be a live dog than a dead lion!” 5 The living at least know they will die, but the dead know nothing. They have no further reward, nor are they remembered. 6 Whatever they did in their lifetime—loving, hating, envying—is all long gone. They no longer play a part in anything here on earth. 7 So go ahead. Eat your food with joy, and drink your wine with a happy heart, for God approves of this! 8 Wear fine clothes, with a splash of cologne! 9 Live happily with the woman you love through all the meaningless days of life that God has given you under the sun. The wife God gives you is your reward for all your earthly toil. 10 Whatever you do, do well. For when you go to the grave,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%209&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17462b (b)] there will be no work or planning or knowledge or wisdom. 11 I have observed something else under the sun. The fastest runner doesn't always win the race, and the strongest warrior doesn't always win the battle. The wise sometimes go hungry, and the skillful are not necessarily wealthy. And those who are educated don't always lead successful lives. It is all decided by chance, by being in the right place at the right time. 12 People can never predict when hard times might come. Like fish in a net or birds in a trap, people are caught by sudden tragedy. Thoughts on Wisdom and Folly 13 Here is another bit of wisdom that has impressed me as I have watched the way our world works. 14 There was a small town with only a few people, and a great king came with his army and besieged it. 15 A poor, wise man knew how to save the town, and so it was rescued. But afterward no one thought to thank him. 16 So

Welcome to Day 2005 of  Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom The Wicked And The Righteous – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 2005 of our Trek. We are transitioning in the structure of Wisdom-Trek to focus on the great wisdom books of the Bible. One habit I have practiced nearly every day for the past 45+ years of my adult life is to read the chapter in the book of Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. This single habit has been the catalyst for gaining wisdom and creating a living legacy. Adopting this habit can do the same for your life. So, beginning October 1st, I will start publishing the reading of the chapter in Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. Before that, I am reading through the book of Ecclesiastes. King Solomon, who wrote both Ecclesiastics and Proverbs, was the wisest person to live. He wrote Ecclesiastes late in his life, after trying many other paths to wisdom, and then he was brought back to the realization that God's Wisdom is the only true wisdom. This realization is what drives me to seek out God's wisdom each day. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Ecclesiastes 8, and I have titled this chapter: The Wicked And The Righteous How wonderful to be wise, to analyze and interpret things. Wisdom lights up a person's face, softening its harshness. Obedience to the King 2 Obey the king since you vowed to God that you would. 3 Don't try to avoid doing your duty, and don't stand with those who plot evil, for the king can do whatever he wants. 4 His command is backed by great power. No one can resist or question it. 5 Those who obey him will not be punished. Those who are wise will find a time and a way to do what is right, 6 for there is a time and a way for everything, even when a person is in trouble. 7 Indeed, how can people avoid what they don't know is going to happen? 8 None of us can hold back our spirit from departing. None of us has the power to prevent the day of our death. There is no escaping that obligation, that dark battle. And in the face of death, wickedness will certainly not rescue the wicked. The Wicked and the Righteous 9 I have thought deeply about all that goes on here under the sun, where people have the power to hurt each other. 10 I have seen wicked people buried with honor. Yet they were the very ones who frequented the Temple and are now praised[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%208&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17445a (a)] in the same city where they committed their crimes! This, too, is meaningless. 11 When a crime is not punished quickly, people feel it is safe to do wrong. 12 But even though a person sins a hundred times and still lives a long time, I know that those who fear God will be better off. 13 The wicked will not prosper, for they do not fear God. Their days will never grow long like the evening shadows. 14 And this is not all that is meaningless in our world. In this life, good people are often treated as though they were wicked, and wicked people are often treated as though they were good. This is so meaningless! 15 So I recommend having fun, because there is nothing better for people in this world than to eat, drink, and enjoy life. That way they will experience some happiness along with all the hard work God gives them under the sun. 16 In my search for wisdom and in my observation of people's burdens here on earth, I discovered that there is ceaseless activity, day and night. 17 I realized that no one can discover everything God is doing under the sun. Not even the wisest people discover everything, no matter what they claim. As you ponder this chapter covering The Wicked And The Righteous, please...

According to the World Health Organization, the pandemic triggered a 25% increase in the prevalence of anxiety and depression worldwide. Today's guest, Beth Allgood, has a suggestion on what could help. She is an expert in well-being but in a very niche way. She looks at the connections that nature and wildlife play toward the well-being of communities. What's really interesting, but concerning though, is how our current systems are designed in a way that doesn't consider well-being nor value the elements that can lead to it. Beth is on a mission to change that through the organization she founded, OneNature. OneNature seeks to transform policies and practices to foster happiness, interconnection, and well-being for all beings. HighlightsHow has being disconnected from nature affected us? How can ignoring the value of well-being in our economic systems actually result in the opposite? How is her work leading to the creation of tools that can result in greater conservation successes? Why is just considering trees, and not wildlife, in wellbeing metrics flawed? What YOU Can DoConnect with nature!

And why are they able to do that? Well, they're charging you a little bit more to make you feel better and you're doing something about the environment. … But they're raking it in.” ESG stands for “environmental, social, and governance”: a collection of corporate performance criteria that exist outside of fiduciary responsibility. Money managers such as BlackRock, arguably ESG's biggest champion, are increasingly using them to determine investment. Riley Moore, treasurer of the state of West Virginia, sees ESG as a destructive force. He is leading a movement of state governments that are terminating contracts with companies that adopt ESG policies, and blocking them from bidding on them. “For us here in West Virginia, it is something that would ultimately destroy our economy, our people, and our way of life,” Moore says.

Welcome to Day 2004 of  Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Wisdom For Life – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 2004 of our Trek. We are transitioning in the structure of Wisdom-Trek to focus on the great wisdom books of the Bible. One habit I have practiced nearly every day for the past 45+ years of my adult life is to read the chapter in the book of Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. This single habit has been the catalyst for gaining wisdom and creating a living legacy. Adopting this habit can do the same for your life. So, beginning October 1st, I will start publishing the reading of the chapter in Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. Before that, I am reading through the book of Ecclesiastes. King Solomon, who wrote both Ecclesiastics and Proverbs, was the wisest person to live. He wrote Ecclesiastes late in his life, after trying many other paths to wisdom, and then he was brought back to the realization that God's Wisdom is the only true wisdom. This realization is what drives me to seek out God's wisdom each day. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Ecclesiastes 7, and I have titled this chapter: Wisdom For Life A good reputation is more valuable than costly perfume. And the day you die is better than the day you are born. 2 Better to spend your time at funerals than at parties. After all, everyone dies— so the living should take this to heart. 3 Sorrow is better than laughter, for sadness has a refining influence on us. 4 A wise person thinks a lot about death, while a fool thinks only about having a good time. 5 Better to be criticized by a wise person than to be praised by a fool. 6 A fool's laughter is quickly gone, like thorns crackling in a fire. This also is meaningless. 7 Extortion turns wise people into fools, and bribes corrupt the heart. 8 Finishing is better than starting. Patience is better than pride. 9 Control your temper, for anger labels you a fool. 10 Don't long for “the good old days.” This is not wise. 11 Wisdom is even better when you have money. Both are a benefit as you go through life. 12 Wisdom and money can get you almost anything, but only wisdom can save your life. 13 Accept the way God does things, for who can straighten what he has made crooked? 14 Enjoy prosperity while you can, but when hard times strike, realize that both come from God. Remember that nothing is certain in this life. The Limits of Human Wisdom 15 I have seen everything in this meaningless life, including the death of good young people and the long life of wicked people. 16 So don't be too good or too wise! Why destroy yourself? 17 On the other hand, don't be too wicked either. Don't be a fool! Why die before your time? 18 Pay attention to these instructions, for anyone who fears God will avoid both extremes.[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes+7&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17424a (a)] 19 One wise person is stronger than ten leading citizens of a town! 20 Not a single person on earth is always good and never sins. 21 Don't eavesdrop on others—you may hear your servant curse you. 22 For you know how often you yourself have cursed others. 23 I have always tried my best to let wisdom guide my thoughts and actions. I said to myself, “I am determined to be wise.” But it didn't work. 24 Wisdom is always distant and difficult to find. 25 I searched everywhere, determined to find wisdom and to understand the reason for things. I was determined to prove to myself that wickedness is stupid and that foolishness is madness. 26 I discovered that a seductive...

Welcome to Day 2003 of  Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Enjoy What You Already Have – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 2003 of our Trek. We are transitioning in the structure of Wisdom-Trek to focus on the great wisdom books of the Bible. One habit I have practiced nearly every day for the past 45+ years of my adult life is to read the chapter in the book of Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month.

So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Ecclesiastes 6, and I have titled this chapter: Enjoy What You Already Have There is another serious tragedy I have seen under the sun, and it weighs heavily on humanity. 2 God gives some people great wealth and honor and everything they could ever want, but then he doesn't give them the chance to enjoy these things. They die, and someone else, even a stranger, ends up enjoying their wealth! This is meaningless—a sickening tragedy. 3 A man might have a hundred children and live to be very old. But if he finds no satisfaction in life and doesn't even get a decent burial, it would have been better for him to be born dead. 4 His birth would have been meaningless, and he would have ended in darkness. He wouldn't even have had a name, 5 and he would never have seen the sun or known of its existence. Yet he would have had more peace than in growing up to be an unhappy man. 6 He might live a thousand years twice over but still not find contentment. And since he must die like everyone else—well, what's the use? 7 All people spend their lives scratching for food, but they never seem to have enough. 8 So are wise people really better off than fools? Do poor people gain anything by being wise and knowing how to act in front of others? 9 Enjoy what you have rather than desiring what you don't have. Just dreaming about nice things is meaningless—like chasing the wind. The Future—Determined and Unknown 10 Everything has already been decided. It was known long ago what each person would be. So there's no use arguing with God about your destiny. 11 The more words you speak, the less they mean. So what good are they? 12 In the few days of our meaningless lives, who knows how our days can best be spent? Our lives are like a shadow. Who can tell what will happen on this earth after we are gone?  As you ponder this chapter covering Enjoy What You Already Have, please encourage your friends and family to join us and come along tomorrow for another day of ‘Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.'

Welcome to Day 2002 of  Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom The Futility Of Wealth – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 2002 of our Trek. We are transitioning in the structure of Wisdom-Trek to focus on the great wisdom books of the Bible. One habit I have practiced nearly every day for the past 45+ years of my adult life is to read the chapter in the book of Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. This single habit has been the catalyst for gaining wisdom and creating a living legacy. Adopting this habit can do the same for your life.

This realization is what drives me to seek out God's wisdom each day. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Ecclesiastes 5, and I have titled this chapter:   The Futility Of Wealth As you enter the house of God, keep your ears open and your mouth shut. It is evil to make mindless offerings to God. 2 [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%205&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17376b (b)]Don't make rash promises, and don't be hasty in bringing matters before God. After all, God is in heaven, and you are here on earth. So let your words be few. 3 Too much activity gives you restless dreams; too many words make you a fool. 4 When you make a promise to God, don't delay in following through, for God takes no pleasure in fools. Keep all the promises you make to him. 5 It is better to say nothing than to make a promise and not keep it. 6 Don't let your mouth make you sin. And don't defend yourself by telling the Temple messenger that the promise you made was a mistake. That would make God angry, and he might wipe out everything you have achieved. 7 Talk is cheap, like daydreams and other useless activities. Fear God instead. The Futility of Wealth 8 Don't be surprised if you see a poor person being oppressed by the powerful and if justice is being miscarried throughout the land. For every official is under orders from higher up, and matters of justice get lost in red tape and bureaucracy. 9 Even the king milks the land for his own profit![https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%205&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17383c (c)] 10 Those who love money will never have enough. How meaningless to think that wealth brings true happiness! 11 The more you have, the more people come to help you spend it. So what good is wealth—except perhaps to watch it slip through your fingers! 12 People who work hard sleep well, whether they eat little or much. But the rich seldom get a good night's sleep. 13 There is another serious problem I have seen under the sun. Hoarding riches harms the saver. 14 Money is put into risky investments that turn sour, and everything is lost. In the end, there is nothing left to pass on to one's children. 15 We all come to the end of our lives as naked and empty-handed as on the day we were born. We can't take our riches with us. 16 And this, too, is a very serious problem. People leave this world no better off than when they came. All their hard work is for nothing—like working for the wind. 17 Throughout their lives, they live under a cloud—frustrated, discouraged, and angry. 18 Even so, I have noticed one thing, at least, that is good. It is good for people to eat, drink, and enjoy their work...

Hey Friends,     Have you ever been told that you are “too something”?  Too old, too young, too much?     Well that's what today's guest Cherly Ilove experienced.  She was told she was “too old”, many times in her life,  the first time was when she was 18! Can you imagine being 18 and told that you're too old?  What?     This episode drops at a very interesting time as there has been a flurry of media reports about a beloved news anchor being released from her contract partly because she let her hair go gray and was now seen as Too Old.  Ageism is a real thing.    Listen in as we talk about: Ageism and how it impacts people across ages.  Too young / too old.  Being told at 18 she was too old to take a ballet class.  Too old, a  belief she held onto for years.  Taking on other peoples projects impact our actions and belief systems  Being told she was too old again in her 30's when she had an injury  Adopting labels from her medial team as a chronic pain patience  Being told she can't have the life she dreamed of because she was too old and too broken.   Firing her medical team and deciding how to treat herself  with pilates and movement Becoming a physical therapist and not being happy with how patients were treated and told what their life would be like. Opening her own clinic to help patients like her “hopeless” cases to give them a path to healing Don't take on the label of too anything…  Starting martial arts and becoming a black belt at 57!  Affirmations and positive words we need  to tell ourselves everyday.   Do you love the show?

Welcome to Day 2,001 of  Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom The Advantages Of Companionship – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 2001 of our Trek. We are transitioning in the structure of Wisdom-Trek to focus on the great wisdom books of the Bible. One habit I have practiced nearly every day for the past 45+ years of my adult life is to read the chapter in the book of Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. This single habit has been the catalyst for gaining wisdom and living a life with wisdom. Adopting this habit can do the same for your life. So, beginning October 1st, I will start publishing the reading of the chapter in Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. Before that, I am reading through the book of Ecclesiastes. King Solomon, who wrote both Ecclesiastics and Proverbs, was the wisest person to live. He wrote Ecclesiastes late in his life, after trying many other paths to wisdom, and then he was brought back to the realization that God's Wisdom is the only true wisdom. This realization is what drives me to seek out God's wisdom each day. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Ecclesiastes 4, and I have titled this chapter: The Advantages Of Companionship Again, I observed all the oppression that takes place under the sun. I saw the tears of the oppressed, with no one to comfort them. The oppressors have great power, and their victims are helpless. 2 So I concluded that the dead are better off than the living. 3 But most fortunate of all are those who are not yet born. For they have not seen all the evil that is done under the sun. 4 Then I observed that most people are motivated to success because they envy their neighbors. But this, too, is meaningless—like chasing the wind. 5 “Fools fold their idle hands, leading them to ruin.” 6 And yet, “Better to have one handful with quietness than two handfuls with hard work and chasing the wind.” The Advantages of Companionship 7 I observed yet another example of something meaningless under the sun. 8 This is the case of a man who is all alone, without a child or a brother, yet who works hard to gain as much wealth as he can. But then he asks himself, “Who am I working for? Why am I giving up so much pleasure now?” It is all so meaningless and depressing. 9 Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. 10 If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble. 11 Likewise, two people lying close together can keep each other warm. But how can one be warm alone? 12 A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken. The Futility of Political Power 13 It is better to be a poor but wise youth than an old and foolish king who refuses all advice. 14 Such a youth could rise from poverty and succeed. He might even become king, though he has been in prison. 15 But then everyone rushes to the side of yet another youth[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%204&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17373a (a)] who replaces him. 16 Endless crowds stand around him,[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%204&version=NLT#fen-NLT-17374b (b)] but then another generation grows up and rejects him, too. So it is all meaningless—like chasing the wind. As you ponder this chapter covering The Advantages of Companionship, please encourage your friends and family to join us and come along tomorrow for another day of ‘Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.' Thank you so much for allowing me to be your guide, mentor, and, most importantly, your friend

In this episode of SaaS Connect by Cloud Software Association, Allan Adler, Managing Partner at Digital Bridge Partners, explains why ecosystems are the best way to grow as well as the best way to help the world. Allan says the term “go-to-market” is broken, and here's why: Digital technologies are transforming markets because of evolving technologies, networks of actors that work together, and powerful platform business models and their network effects. If you're in go-to-market mode, you'll miss out on awareness and understanding, differentiation and competitive advantage, retention and loyalty, value, growth and societal contribution. SaaS growth depends on GoToEcosystem transformation (programmatic and business model change is required). You need to find a way to build atomic networks around parts of your business. Create a flywheel: community, partner, customer. Allan also talks about what happens when you get it right, how to get there, maturity model foundations, stages and the following roadmap: Launch Prove Scale Leverage Resources mentioned: The Cold Start Problem: How to Start and Scale Network Effects by Andrew Chen (book) Crossbeam Note: SaaS Connect 2023 will take place in San Francisco April 19th and 20th.

In the second hour of "Connections with Evan Dawson" on Monday, September 19, 2022, local doctors discuss how they are incorporating lifestyle medicine practices in their work with patients.

The stats are in, and the message is clear. We're struggling with anxiety and depression. Be it because of social media that gives a compromised sense of "community", or the difficulties brought on by global pandemics, it's a pandemic in its own right. Thankfully we have the Lord in our corner, and a Word to satisfy longings within that Facebook simply can't touch. Our guest today, worship leader and recording artist Hope Darst, shares her own struggles with anxiety and depression, and how she relied on the Scriptures and God's Spirit to find real joy. Make sure you tune in to the very end to hear her talent in song. You will be blessed and if you're out walking while listening to this podcast today, it will cause an extra skip in your step today. Guaranteed. Here's a bit of what you'll hear in today's episode: -Ubiquitous social media has an unhealthy net effect on society...08:12 -We don't know how to "see" people anymore when we're glued to our smartphone...13:21 -Hope's journey thru anxiety, depression, etc...15:44 -Coping mechanisms "save" you for a short time, but the enemy uses them to his advantage...18:49 -Adopting healthy coping mechanisms founded in Scripture...23:14 -Awareness of hormones, emotional cravings, etc and how to cope with them in a healthy manner...31:35 -The best piece of advice Hope has ever received...41:50 -One thing about Hope most people wouldn't know...45:22 Connect with today's guest! https://www.instagram.com/hopedarst (Instagram) https://www.facebook.com/hopedarst (Facebook) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgGG-QHNJqffhrJmL-iHiGg (YouTube) Hope Darst is a worship leader who desires to see people encounter the love of Jesus and be restored and set free in His presence. Whether it's crafting songs for artful expression or corporate praise, Hope's goal is the same - to worship God in everything. Her latest single, "If the Lord Builds the House", is just another example of Hope's desire to write songs that capture real life experiences while remaining anchored in God's word. This newest release is a bold declaration with lyrics from Joshua 24:15, "As for me and my house we're gonna serve you Lord / So here's the keys / Come on in / Everything we have is yours". Hope tackles the reality that when we try to build a name for ourselves it usually ends up falling apart, but when we chose to allow God to build our lives, nothing can tear it down. Even if we face hardship or storms, the houses of our hearts and minds will stand firm on Him. While Hope's journey to become a songwriter and recording artist started later than most, Hope feels like she is just getting started and hopes to have the honor of releasing music for a long time. Her newest single, If the Lord Builds the House, was released June 10, 2022. She is currently working on more new music to be released in late 2022 and early 2023. _______________ To learn more and for free resources go to www.wendiepett.com.

Jesus reestablished what a healthy rhythm of a 24-hour period of rest ought to look like. The Sabbath is a gift that God has given us so that we ca n truly rest in his goodness and provision. Adopting the practice of Sabbath into your life may be the most countercultural witness of your faith that you can put on display for the world to see. Matthew 12:1-8 (ESV)At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.  But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, “Look, your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.”  He said to them, “Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him: 4 how he entered the house of God and ate the bread of the Presence, which it was not lawful for him to eat nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?  Or have you not read in the Law how on the Sabbath the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless?  I tell you, something greater than the temple is here.  And if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the guiltless.  For the Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath.”Exodus 20:8-11 (ESV)“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.  Six days you shall labor, and do all your work,  but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates.  For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.

A lack of follow-through and overwhelm always stem from a limiting thought. This quick-tip episode stems from many conversations with clients and Zivli members about weight loss overwhelm and lack of follow-through. Consistency is the name of the better health game. Crash diets and yo-yo dieting do not work for long-term weight loss. Adopting healthy habits that keep insulin and inflammation low does.
