In this episode of Anchored Conversations, Marian Jordan Ellis sits down with women's ministry leader and Bible teacher Tasha Calvert to talk about what it really means to live a life anchored to Jesus—especially in a culture that often celebrates the opposite of holiness.Peter's message to the early church is strikingly timely: believers are “elect exiles” living under pressure, misunderstood, and sometimes mocked—yet called to stand out with lives so compelling that others “see your good deeds and glorify God.” (1 Peter 2)Tasha unpacks holiness with fresh clarity—not as a rigid checklist or religious performance, but as a “sacred otherness that originates from God, is extended to us through His Spirit, manifested in our character, and strengthened in Christian community.”Together, Marian and Tasha talk about:--- What “Be holy, because I am holy” meant to Peter's original audience—and what it means for us now (1 Peter 1)----Why holiness is rooted in the Holy One, not white-knuckled behavior change--- How to live distinctively without becoming defensive, reactive, or losing credibility online--- The role of Scripture, prayer, and community in staying anchored--- The “upside-down economy of God”: how suffering refines faith and clarifies what matters (1 Peter 1)---Why Peter keeps pulling our eyes toward an eternal perspective and an inheritance that can't be stolenIf you've ever felt torn between blending in and standing out—or you're weary from the cultural noise—this conversation will steady your soul and call you back to the Living Hope found in Jesus.➡️ Learn more about Marian's Bible study: Anchored: The Life and Letters of the Apostle Peter (7-week study) https://www.lifeway.com/en/product/anchored-bible-study-book-with-video-access-P005850823

In this powerful episode, Laura is joined by Dr. Keisha Bentley-Edwards, Associate Professor at Duke University's School of Medicine and Co-Director of Duke CTSI Center for Research, Community Engagement, Social Impact and Trust (CREST Center), for a timely conversation on rethinking resilience. Inspired by Dr. Bentley-Edwards' article "I Am Not (Your) Superwoman, Black Girl Magic, or Beautiful Struggle: Rethinking the Resilience of Black Women and Girls," this episode explores the cultural narratives that celebrate Black women's strength while often ignoring the profound physical, emotional, and psychological costs of relentless resilience. Together, Laura and Keisha unpack the tensions between pride in endurance, cultural expectations like the "Strong Black Woman," and the growing body of research showing how these narratives contribute to health inequities across the lifespan. Dr. Bentley-Edwards offers insight into how expectations of resilience often begin in childhood for Black girls, shaping adult experiences of stress, coping, and wellbeing. The conversation moves beyond critique toward possibility—imagining models of resilience that center sustainable wellness, community care, and structural accountability, rather than individual endurance alone. Dr. Bentley-Edwards also reflects on what Black women can do in service of themselves and Black girls, and what we must collectively demand from systems, institutions, and leaders. Anchored in Season 8's theme, "Leaning Into Joy," this episode invites listeners to consider how joy, rest, alignment, and community are not indulgences, but essential counterweights to harmful expectations of strength.   About Dr. Keisha Dr. Keisha Bentley-Edwards is an Associate Professor at Duke University's School of Medicine and Co-Director of Duke CTSI Center for Research, Community Engagement, Social Impact and Trust (CREST Center).

This is despite US tariffs which were initially set at to 49%, but later negotiated down to ~20%. At the same time, Chinese exports to the US plunged -40% YoY in Q3 2025. This comes as the region has a massive cost advantage over US and European manufacturing, which ranges from 20% to 100%, even after tariffs. Companies use Southeast Asian economies as alternative export bases to avoid China’s 37% reciprocal tariff. As a result, the amount of trade rerouting from China hit a record $23.7 billion in September.

Anchored by the Trump Corollary, asserting a sovereign, American‑led Western Hemisphere and demonstrated in both the flawless military operation in Venezuela and the broader regime‑pressure strategy, this doctrine is not theater but an integrated fusion of economic, security, and hemispheric power. These changes are as profound in their structural implications as the original Jacksonian pivot, and those who assume Trump is a merely performative politician and strategist are therefore sorely mistaken, confusing a disruptive style with a coherent focused project to realign America's coalition, its economic model, and its role in the world.

The decision follows Congress's rescission of all of CPB's federal funding and comes after sustained political attacks that made it impossible for CPB to continue operating as the Public Broadcasting Act intended.

Greenland is the theatre where any strategic exchange between Washington and Moscow is contested. If you want to intercept a ballistic missile, the best point to do so is at the apogee, at the top of the flight path. The shortest route for an interceptor to get to an apogee is from directly below the apogee. That's where Greenland is. So, without stating what should happen here, this is **why** the Trump administration says they **need** Greenland for national security. The other thing that is happening is that the Northern Passage through the Arctic is opening up, and soon there will be Chinese cargo ships sailing through the Arctic to Rotterdam. It's faster than the Suez and the ships aren't limited to Suezmax size so China and EU trade is going to accelerate a lot. This means Chinese submarines will also be venturing under the Arctic into the Northern Atlantic, IF THEY AREN'T ALREADY DOING SO. Hence, the North East coast of Greenland serves not 1 but 2 critical strategic security objectives of US national security.

Demonstrations have now spread to multiple cities throughout Iran, with citizens openly defying the Islamic Republic and targeting its symbols of power. The latest wave of protests was initially sparked by the collapse of Iran's currency, further devastating an already-crippled economy and pushing ordinary Iranians to the brink.

They insist the world runs on rules now and that borders are sacred. Also that true power has been replaced by paperwork. This belief is not moral in the least. It's f*****g archaeological. They live inside institutions built by violence, defended by men they no longer understand, and guaranteed by forces they refuse to acknowledge. Like tourists wandering a fortress, they admire the stonework while mocking the idea of a siege. They confuse order with nature. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Then blame the person that reminds them of this. Civilization is not the default state of humanity. It is an achievement that is temporary, fragile, and expensive. It exists only where force once cleared the ground and still quietly patrols the perimeter. A lion does not debate the ethics of hunger. Neither does a starving empire. History is not a morality play, it is a pressure test. When pressure rises, abstractions collapse first. Laws follow power; they do NOT precede it. Property exists only where someone can prevent it from being taken. Sovereignty is not declared, it is enforced. The modern West outsourced this enforcement, then forgot the invoice existed. So when someone points out uncomfortable realities (whether about Greenland, Venezuela, or the broader balance of power) they respond with ritual incantations: “You can't do that.” “That's wrong.” “That's against the rules.” As if the rules themselves are armed. As if history paused because we asked nicely. This is how empires fall. Not from invasion alone, but from conceptual rot. From mistaking a long season of safety for a permanent condition. From believing lethality is immoral instead of foundational. Every civilization that forgot how violence works eventually relearned it the hard way. The conquerors did not arrive because they were monsters; they arrived because their victims could no longer imagine them. The tragedy is not that power still exists. The tragedy is that so many have forgotten it does. Idk who needs to hear this but civilization is a garden grown atop a graveyard. Ignore the soil, and someone else will plant something far less gentle. Hate me for being the messenger and asking the hard questions about conquest if you want. You're just wasting your time. War/Peace Zelenskyy Announces the Appointment of Former Canadian Deputy Prime Minister, Chrystia Freeland as Economic Advisor  Chrystia Freeland was the former lead of the Canadian trade delegation when Trudeau realized he needed to try and offset the economic damage within the renegotiated NAFTA agreement known as the USMCA. Freeland was also the lead attack agent behind the debanking effort against Canadian truckers who opposed the vaccine mandate. In addition to holding Ukraine roots, the ideology of Chrystia Freeland as a multinational globalist and promoter for the World Economic Forum's ‘new world order' is well documented.    given the recent revelations about billions of laundered aid funds being skimmed by corrupt members of the Ukraine government, we can only imagine how much of the recovery funds would be apportioned to maintaining the life of indulgence the political leaders expect. In response to the lucrative “voluntary” appointment, Chrystia Freeland has announced her resignation from Canadian government in order to avoid any conflict of interest as the skimming is organized.

The “Coalition of the Willing” (including the UK, France, Germany, and others) is coordinating these pledges to reassure Kyiv, but the framework explicitly ties into U.S.-backed elements like ceasefire verification and long-term armaments.  Russia has not yet shown willingness to compromise on core demands, so the deal’s success remains uncertain, but this step advances the security pillar of the overall plan.

President Trump signs Executive Order 14287 in the Oval Office. The title reads like standard bureaucracy: “Protecting American Communities from Criminal Aliens.” But in the third paragraph, a single phrase changes everything: Sanctuary jurisdictions are engaging in “a lawless insurrection against the supremacy of Federal law.” Insurrection. The exact statutory term from 10 U.S.C. §§ 332-333 . The language that unlocks the Insurrection Act of 1807. Georgetown Law professor Martin Lederman publishes analysis within days. The executive order mirrors Section 334 requirements. The formal proclamation to disperse before military deployment. It designates unlawful actors, issues formal warning, establishes consequences. Governors dismiss it as political theater. Constitutional attorneys recognize something else. The proclamation was already issued. Trump just didn't announce it as such. THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK January 20, 2025. Inauguration Day. Hours after taking the oath, Trump issues Proclamation 10886 declaring a national emergency at the southern border. Section 6(b) requires a joint report within 90 days on whether to invoke the Insurrection Act. The deadline falls April 20, 2025. Eight days later comes Executive Order 14287 . National emergency declaration establishes crisis conditions. The 90-day clock forces formal evaluation. The executive order provides the legal predicate. Section 334 of the Insurrection Act mandates the president issue a proclamation ordering insurgents to disperse before deploying military force. April 28 order satisfies every requirement. It names the actors. Describes their unlawful conduct. Warns of consequences. Grants opportunity to comply. Governors treated it as negotiation leverage. It was legal notification. The trap locked in April 2025. Everything since has been documentation. THE TESTING PHASE Throughout 2025, the administration attempts standard enforcement. National Guard deployments under existing authority. October 4, 2025 . Trump federalizes 300 Illinois National Guard members to protect ICE personnel in Chicago. Governor J.B. Pritzker files immediate legal challenge. Federal courts block the deployment. Posse Comitatus restricts military involvement in domestic law enforcement. November 2025 . Portland judge issues permanent injunction against Guard deployment in Oregon. December 23, 2025 . The Supreme Court denies emergency relief in Trump v. Illinois. Justice Kavanaugh files a brief concurrence with a consequential footnote: “One apparent ramification of the Court's opinion is that it could cause the President to use the U.S. military more than the National Guard.” Northwestern Law professor Paul Gowder decodes the signal : “This is basically an invitation for Trump to go straight to the Insurrection Act next time.” The courts established ordinary measures cannot succeed when states organize systematic resistance. They certified that regular law enforcement has become impracticable. They documented the exact threshold Section 332 requires. The founders designed a system that assumed conflict between federal and state authority. For decades, that friction was suppressed. Emergency powers normalized after 9/11, federal agencies expanded into state domains, courts deferred to administrative expertise. The Guard deployment battles weren't system failure. They were constitutional gravity reasserting itself. Courts blocking deployments under Posse Comitatus didn't weaken Trump's position. They certified that ordinary measures had become impracticable, crossing Section 332's threshold. December 31, 2025 . Trump announces Guard withdrawal from Chicago, Los Angeles, and Portland via Truth Social. Governor Newsom celebrates: “President Trump has finally admitted defeat.” But the machine's interpretation misreads strategic repositioning as retreat. You cannot claim ordinary measures have been exhausted if contested forces remain deployed. Pull back. Let obstruction resume unchecked. Document the refusal. Then demonstrate what unilateral executive action looks like when constitutional authority aligns. THE DEMONSTRATION Trump v. United States . THE HIDDEN NETWORKS Intelligence sources describe what the roundups since fall 2025 actually target. Embedded cartel operatives running fentanyl distribution chains under state-level protection. The riots following military arrests aren't organic resistance. They're funded backlash from criminal enterprises losing billions. Pre-staged materials appear at protest sites. Simultaneous actions coordinate across jurisdictions. The coordination runs deeper. Federal employee networks across multiple agencies held Zoom training sessions in early 2025. Officials with verified government IDs discussed “non-cooperation as non-violent direct action,” the 3.5% rule for governmental collapse, and infrastructure sabotage through coordinated sick calls. They planned to make federal law enforcement impracticable. The exact language Section 332 requires. Sanctuary policies exist because cartel operations generate billions flowing through state systems. Governors sit on nonprofit boards receiving federal grants. Those nonprofits contract back to state agencies, cycling federal dollars through “charitable” organizations. Cartel cash launders through these same construction and real estate networks. When Trump's operations extract high-value targets, they disrupt the business model. The Machine defends itself through coordinated obstruction designed to make federal enforcement impracticable. This transcends immigration policy. This tests whether states can capture governance for criminal enterprises and nullify federal supremacy. THE LINCOLN PARALLEL Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation confounded supporters and critics alike. Abolitionists expected moral thunder. Instead they received dry legalese about “military necessity” and “war powers.” The document deliberately avoided the word “freedom.” It specified which states, parishes, counties. It exempted border states still in the Union. Constitutional historians recognize the genius. Lincoln wasn't making a moral proclamation. He was establishing irreversible legal predicate under war powers. Once issued, even Northern defeat couldn't fully restore slavery. The proclamation made restoration of the old order structurally impossible. Trump's April 28 order follows identical construction. Critics expected immigration rhetoric. Instead: technical language about “unlawful insurrection” and “federal supremacy.” Specified sanctuary jurisdictions, formal notification procedures, funding suspensions. Avoided inflammatory language. Constitutional attorneys recognize the structure. Irreversible legal predicate under insurrection powers. Even political defeat cannot fully restore sanctuary authority. States would have to prove they're not in systematic insurrection. Both presidents disguised constitutional warfare as administrative procedure. THE COMPLETE RECORD When you review the eight-month timeline you recognize what most ‘experts' miss. The April 28 EO satisfied every Section 334 requirement. It designated sanctuary conduct as insurrection. It provided formal notification. It established consequences. It granted eight months to comply. Compliance never arrived. California and New York passed laws shielding criminal networks. Illinois officials threatened to prosecute ICE agents. Multiple states coordinated legal defenses against federal authority. Courts blocked every standard enforcement attempt. They certified that ordinary measures have become impracticable. Every statutory requirement checks complete: Formal proclamation warning insurgents to disperse: April 28, 2025 Executive Order 14287 Extended opportunity to comply: Eight months from April to December 2025 Documented systematic multi-state obstruction: Sanctuary laws, prosecution threats, coordinated resistance Exhausted ordinary enforcement measures: Guard deployments blocked by federal courts Judicial certification of impracticability: Supreme Court ruling with Kavanaugh footnote The legal architecture stands finished. The predicate has been established. Only the final triggering event remains. Thomas Jefferson signed the Insurrection Act into law on March 3, 1807 . He understood executive authority: forge the instrument ahead of the storm, then await the conditions that justify its use. Abraham Lincoln used it to preserve the Union when eleven states organized systematic resistance. Ulysses S. Grant invoked it to shatter the Ku Klux Klan when Southern governments refused to protect Black citizens. Dwight Eisenhower deployed federal troops to enforce Brown v. Board when Arkansas chose defiance. Each invocation followed the same pattern. Local authorities refuse to enforce federal law. The president issues formal proclamation. Forces deploy when resistance continues. The current situation exceeds every historical precedent in scale and coordination. Multiple state governments coordinating systematic obstruction. Sanctuary jurisdictions spanning dozens of cities. Criminal enterprises funding the resistance through captured state institutions. The April proclamation gave them eight months to stand down. They chose escalation. THE COUNTDOWN The January 4 statement confirms what the legal timeline already established. Prerequisites met. Constitutional threshold crossed and judicially certified. The operational timeline is active. The next escalation triggers the formal dispersal order. Section 334 requires the president issue proclamation ordering insurgents to “disperse and retire peaceably to their abodes” before deploying military force. That's the legal tripwire. Once issued, if obstruction persists after the compliance window closes, federal troops can enforce federal law. Active duty forces under the Insurrection Act. Constitutional. Unreviewable. The forces won't conduct door-to-door immigration raids. They'll provide security perimeters while federal law enforcement executes targeted operations against high-value assets. Operatives. Trafficking nodes. Criminal infrastructure. Targeting oath-bound officials elected and appointed, as well as federal employees who swore to uphold federal law and chose insurrection instead. THE RESTORATION Sanctuary jurisdictions received explicit insurrection warnings last spring. More than half a year to comply. Every olive branch rejected. Courts blocked ordinary enforcement repeatedly, certifying impracticability. The Venezuela op demonstrated unilateral resolve. Yesterday's statement activated the operational sequence. Pattern recognized. Machine is exposed. Evidence is complete. What remains is execution. They're just waiting to hear it tick. The most powerful weapon restrains until every prerequisite aligns. Until mercy extends fully and meets systematic rejection. Until the constitutional framework demands its use. Every prerequisite has aligned. Mercy has been extended and rejected. The framework demands its use. Revolution destroys. Reversion restores. The Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves. The Insurrection Proclamation frees a republic.  https://twitter.com/EkoLovesYou/status/2008304655156342936?s=20 https://twitter.com/EricLDaugh/status/2008597603412308341?s=20 (function(w,d,s,i){w.ldAdInit=w.ldAdInit||[];w.ldAdInit.push({slot:13499335648425062,size:[0, 0],id:"ld-7164-1323"});if(!d.getElementById(i)){var j=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];j.async=true;j.src="//cdn2.customads.co/_js/ajs.js";j.id=i;p.parentNode.insertBefore(j,p);}})(window,document,"script","ld-ajs");

Do kids really need to be taught to focus, or do they need permission to wonder first? In this Facing the Dark episode, Dr. Kathy Koch and Wayne Stender explore new research showing that children learn even when they're not intentionally paying attention. Together, they unpack the difference between curiosity and concentration, why wonder is not a distraction but a doorway to learning, and how parents can teach focus without extinguishing imagination. Anchored in child development, the 8 Great Smarts, and the story of Gideon, this conversation equips parents to nurture both attentiveness and awe, so kids grow confident and spiritually curious in a world that often rushes them to perform.    

In this episode of Anchored by the Sword, I'm joined by author, podcaster, and content creator Erica Gwynn to talk about the lies we believe—often without even realizing it—and how those lies quietly shape the way we see ourselves, God, and our purpose.Erica's book, That's Just Not True: How to Replace the Lies You Didn't Know You Believed with God's Unchanging Truth, released in October, tackles 17 common lies that sound good on paper but don't actually line up with Scripture. Together, we unpack how striving, perfectionism, people-pleasing, comparison, and cultural phrases like “I can do anything” or “manifest your dream life” can slowly pull us out of true partnership with God.We talk honestly about: • Freedom as an ongoing process, not a finish line • Why limits are not failures, but part of God's design • How rejection by people can actually be redirection and protection from God • The danger of manifesting apart from surrender • What it looks like to dream with God instead of apart from HimErica also shares the Scripture that keeps her anchored in seasons of uncertainty and encourages listeners to give themselves grace—especially at the start of a new year.This conversation is for anyone who feels tired of striving, overwhelmed by comparison, or stuck believing things about themselves that God never said.Bio:Erica Ligenza Gwynn is an author, podcaster, coach, speaker, and content creator. She's the founder of Coming Up Roses, an online community rooted in the belief that while not everything in life is pretty, and every rose has its thorn, we can still honor our seasons and live in full bloom.

Share a commentEver wonder why some days faith feels like pushing a stalled car uphill while other days it moves with quiet power and clarity? We explore the difference the Holy Spirit makes when we stop treating Him like a vague force and start knowing Him as a person who indwells, teaches, and leads. Anchored in Romans 5:5, we unpack how God's love is poured into our hearts through the Spirit and why that truth changes how we pray, decide, and serve.We walk through the personhood of the Spirit—His mind, will, and emotions—and why that matters for real life. You'll hear how spiritual gifts are distributed as He wills, why His indwelling presence is permanent, and what it truly means to be “filled with the Spirit”: not topped up like a tank, but joyfully influenced in speech, thought, and action. Along the way, we dismantle common myths and hype, trading “secret power” promises for the sober beauty of daily surrender that magnifies Jesus and builds a healthy, unified church.Finally, we get practical with a three-part rhythm: listen to the Spirit through Scripture-shaped desires, learn from the Spirit as He convicts and comforts, and lean on the Spirit for help in ordinary pressures at home, at work, and in the body of Christ. No Spirit, no gospel life; with Him, love becomes real, hope holds steady, and obedience gains traction.

Storms don't mean your faith is failing, they may be the very place God is forming it. In this New Year message from James 1, discover how perseverance anchors us in Christ, matures our faith, and produces unshakable stability even when life feels overwhelming. If you're facing a trial, this message is for you.

All truth begins and ends with God. God the Father represents the Source of that truth.Genesis 1:1 and Psalm 103:1-18Reverend Dr. Matt LakeJanuary 4, 2026

At our first Testimony and Thanksgiving Service of 2026, Pastor Femi Paul delivered a prophetic word titled “Opportunity to go from Obscurity into Reckoning and Renown.” Anchored on Revelation 3:8, we were reminded that God is the Author of divine doors. Doors are that open not by human strength, but by obedience, faithfulness, and steadfast commitment to His Name. Though we may appear small in strength, heaven has taken full account of our walk, and God has responded decisively by opening doors that no man can shut. This is proof that divine recognition is not driven by noise, but by covenant. The word for us is clear. 2026 is our year of great and amazing opportunities. It is these God given opportunities that move His people from obscurity into reckoning and renown, into visibility backed by substance, recognition based on proven importance, and honour that cannot be denied. What was lacking before was not care, effort, or faith, it was opportunity. That season has ended. This year, amazing doors are standing wide open, ushering us into relevance, respect, and God ordained prominence. As God has spoken, the Church boldly responds in faith, Amen. Confession: Father, I receive my opportunity to move from obscurity into reckoning and renown. Doors no man can shut are opening before me. I step into divine recognition and honour in 2026, in Jesus' name. Amen.

Conner Bible Reading:“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” - Romans 15:13 (NIV) All of the hustle and bustle of the holidays has come to a close. Decorations have been stored away, regular schedules have resumed, and the inevitable and likely necessary (at least for me) annual recommitment to diet and exercise has been enacted. Another new year is upon us. For some, the reset of the calendar feels like a fresh start, a blank slate. For others, it might draw out feelings of uncertainty about the unknown ahead. How do you view the renewal of another twelve months? Do you greet a new year with apprehension or anticipation? If we look closely, the framework of refreshing and renewal through time and seasons is evident throughout the Word of God. From the very beginning, we learn that God made day and night. Within each 24-hour period, there is a time for work and time to rest before the cycle begins again. The Lord also established weekly sequences with days assigned to toil and a call to reset on the Sabbath. Monthly and yearly periods are connected to new moons and seasons of sowing and harvesting. The list goes on and on… We can also observe the ultimate example of death and rebirth, exemplified through the cross of our Lord, Jesus Christ, reflected every year as the world goes dormant in winter. During those dark, bare days, we question whether life is present beneath the frozen tundra, yet each year, spring bursts forth with its radiant buds, reminding us all that warmth and light are on the way. With so many opportunities for refreshing and renewal organically embedded into creation, it is clear our Maker sees this process as “good” (Genesis 1:4). There is something cleansing, almost freeing, about a fresh start. How many situations or circumstances have you encountered this last year, or even this past month, that you wish you could put behind you and start again? There are several that come to mind. The Lord understands how these disappointments or personal failures can become a burden too heavy to bear. Which is why both spiritually and physically, He has embedded marker-point moments for us to begin again with a clean slate. “For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him; as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us,” (Psalm 103:12, NIV). While we may struggle with the concept of freedom from current or past circumstances and sin, the Lord’s mercies are new every morning (Lamentations 3:22-23). There are opportunities for new days, new years, and renewed hope. For “… there is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens, (Ecclesiastes 3:1, NIV). Wherever you find yourself this new year, I encourage you to seize this opportunity to refresh. Whatever has passed, let it be put away and look forward to a new beginning. God, the great author, is still writing your story. Let’s commit together to hand Him the pen and trust that the narrative He has planned will be full of abundant blessings this new year. Intersecting Faith & Life: How do you view the turn of the annual calendar? Do you feel inspired or intimidated? Why? Take some time today to prayerfully consider the highs and lows you experienced last year. Note next to each one how you saw God’s presence and provision in every example. Next, jot down some hopes or dreams for this new year. If possible, list aspirations in both the physical and spiritual. Are there relationships you would like to see founded, mended, or renewed? Or perhaps a new pursuit in health, education, or career. Write down anything you feel tugs on your heartstrings. Once completed, take some time to consider how you would like to see your relationship with the Lord grow this year. Is there a particular study you would like to join? Or perhaps a prayer group, or a commitment to daily individual prayer? Whatever feels like the Lord is prompting, make note of it, then release it to Him. I encourage you to keep this list somewhere safe. This time next year, bring it back out and see how God met you in any or all of these circumstances and desires.

Send us a textWhat if the most spiritual thing you do this week is build something that lasts? We dive straight into a gutsy thesis: God is glorified not only by private devotion but by public fruitfulness—by redeemed people building enduring work, institutions, and cultures under the lordship of Christ. Anchored in Luke 19's parable of the minas, we examine stewardship that multiplies, the danger of burying potential, and why faithful risk is a sign of faith in God's character.From there we get practical. We unpack calling through two levers—ownership and opportunity—and make the case that motion beats overthinking. We talk about the inner life that fuels outer fruit: prayer that asks bigger, self-talk that aligns with Scripture, and habits that carry us when feelings fade. Competence matters, and so does confidence, defined as keeping promises to yourself. We touch on structured discipline like 75 Hard, the value of paying to learn so you actually pay attention, and a simple ethic of excellence every day and every way.Then we widen the frame to scaling and legacy. You haven't truly built until the work can live without you. Teaching what you know creates capacity and multiplies impact. We explore money as a magnifier and reproducer, pushing past guilt toward generous stewardship that creates jobs, lifts communities, and funds mission. The heart check is plain: are people blessed because you are building?We close with continuity and courage. Valleys shape endurance; mountaintops clarify direction. Lone-wolf Christianity fails, so we lean into community to go far. Don't kill ambition—aim it. Trailblazers take arrows, but scars become currency in God's kingdom. If faithfulness turns to fruitfulness, and fruitfulness to expansion, the outcome is inheritance that outlives us.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who's building, and leave a review with one bold, God-sized goal you're committing to this year. Let's shine where we work and give our Father glory.Support the show

They are created by individuals who strive to live its teachings and apply them in practical, life-changing ways.In this episode, Maurice and the class explore how to respond when relationships become strained, including experiences of being “canceled,” family conflict, and painful rejection—while still staying rooted in Christlike love and personal values.You'll learn practical tools and spiritual principles for:Loving others with charity without compromising beliefsHolding healthy boundaries with peace (not contention)“Adding virtue” to negative thoughts through disciplined mental habitsUsing Christ's example (the woman taken in adultery) to love without lowering standardsStaying regulated in hard conversations—pausing, breathing, and speaking from identityStrengthening your “anchor points” so you can listen deeply without being pulled off courseWhy cheering others on (and cheering yourself on) can change heartsHow connection and community help people endure crisis—especially marriage crisisThis episode is especially for anyone facing rejection, family tension, or marriage strain—and trying to stay faithful, loving, and steady through it all.

As we begin a new year, this episode of Anchored in the Word focuses on why having a biblical worldview is essential for the Christian life. Every one of us interprets the world through a lens—our worldview—and Scripture provides the only true and trustworthy foundation for how we think, live, and engage with the culture around us. In this episode, Dave Jenkins examines: • How a biblical worldview anchors our thinking • How Scripture equips us to navigate culture faithfully • How God's Word shapes morality, ethics, and decision-making • How worldview fuels our mission and witness for Christ Using passages such as Romans 12:2, Psalm 119:105, John 17:17, and Matthew 28:19–20, this teaching encourages Christians to stand firm on the truth of God's Word, renew their minds daily, and live with clarity and conviction in a confused world. As you enter this new year, may the Word of God be your foundation, your clarity, and your anchor.

Most people chase performance by training the mind and pushing the body. Dr. Jerry Lynch has spent decades proving that's only part of the equation. Because when pressure hits—when fear shows up, when doubt gets loud, when the moment gets heavy—mindset won't carry you if your inner foundation is empty. What separates the best isn't just mental toughness. It's what champions can access when the stakes are real: meaning, courage, connection, and the soul behind the performance. In his fifth appearance on The Athletics of Business Podcast, Jerry joins Ed Molitor to explore what truly sustains excellence in sport, leadership, and life. Anchored in Jerry's 20th book, Unlocking the Champion's Soul, the conversation reframes performance as something rooted not just in the mind or body—but in the soul. Together, Ed and Jerry unpack defining moments, championship environments, and the inner work required to lead and compete with purpose—from fear versus love, to relationships as the ultimate performance multiplier. If you coach, lead teams, work with people, or are committed to becoming a better version of yourself, this episode offers a powerful shift in perspective. Meet Our Guest: Dr. Jerry Lynch Dr. Jerry Lynch is a performance coach, author, and PhD in psychology who has spent decades helping athletes, coaches, and leaders access what he calls the champion's soul—the inner foundation that drives how we show up when it matters most. Jerry has supported more than 130 championship teams across professional and collegiate sport, and his work is known for going beyond traditional sports psychology. While mindset and mental skills matter, Jerry's approach centers on something deeper: meaning, purpose, courage, love, and the lived values that shape performance under pressure. His perspective was forged early—not just in locker rooms, but through years as a runner in Colorado, where long mountain runs became a training ground for philosophy, self-awareness, and the kind of inner work that competitors often avoid until life forces it. Jerry is also the author of 20 books, including Unlocking the Champion's Soul, which brings together his lifetime of coaching, research, and lived experience into a practical path for anyone committed to becoming their best—on the field, in business, and in life.   What You'll Learn in this Episode: Why performance starts with belonging, not pressure Why relationships are "the business of the soul." How sport builds "spiritual shape," not just physical shape Why "feelings equal function" in leadership, coaching, and culture How to create a safe environment where people feel free to fail and grow How sport accelerates self-discovery and reveals who we are under pressure How fear and love shape decision-making, performance, and relationships The RIVER Effect: the five feelings every person craves in a team culture   Resources & Links   Dr. Jerry Lynch Website: www.wayofchampions.com  Jerry's LinkedIn Grab your copy of Unlocking the Champion's Soul More of Jerry's Books   Listen to more of Dr. Lynch on The Athletics of Business Podcast: Episode 203: Lead with Love Episode 195: The Champion Sports Parent ft.

This episode marks the season finale of The Culture-Centered Classroom and the closing chapter of The Culture of Celebration mini-series.Rather than ending with urgency or resolution-setting, this final episode invites listeners into pause, reflection, and intentional becoming. Jocelynn shares her long-standing practice of choosing a guiding word or phrase for the year ahead — not as a productivity tool, but as an act of care, cultural awareness, and self-honoring.This is a gentle landing place. A moment to look back at what has shaped us, name what we are releasing, and choose how we want to move forward — personally, professionally, and collectively.Why a guiding word is different from a resolutionJocelynn reframes focus words as reminders rather than goals — a way to return to values, care, and clarity when things feel loud, rushed, or cattywampus.The meaning behind “Trust the Becoming through Pause and Surrender”This episode unpacks how pause creates space for reflection, surrender releases the illusion of control, and becoming reminds us that growth is always ongoing — for students, educators, classrooms, and systems.How culture, community, and care shape who we're becomingBecoming is never neutral or individualistic. Our identities, lived experiences, histories, and communities all influence what we believe is possible for ourselves and our students.A simplified Focus Word process for educatorsAligned with Jocelynn's RLI Framework (Reflect, Learn, Implement) and the AnchorED for Achievement principles, this revised approach supports educators in choosing a word that acts as both a mirror and a map for the year ahead.A student-centered version of the practiceYou'll hear how to guide students in choosing their own word — empowering them to reflect on growth, claim agency, and name who they are becoming within a learning community.Becoming as celebrationChoosing a word is framed as a celebratory act — one that honors where we've been, what has shaped us, and who we are becoming. This moment intentionally circles back to the series themes of celebration, cultural competence, joy, and belonging.A grounding quote on becomingThe episode is anchored by a reflection from Michelle Obama's Becoming:“Becoming is not about arriving somewhere or achieving a certain aim.”A guided pause to close the seasonListeners are invited into a quiet moment of breath, reflection, and surrender — a gentle transition into the next season of life and learning.Reflection Questions for ListenersWhat word or phrase feels grounding for this season of my life or work?What am I being invited to pause, release, or surrender?How has my culture, community, and lived experience shaped who I am becoming?How might a guiding word support my teaching, leadership, or rest in the year ahead?How can I invite students to reflect on and celebrate their own becoming?

Why a Biblical Worldview Matters for Every ChristianShow: Anchored in the Word — a segment of the Servants of Grace PodcastHost: Dave JenkinsSeries: Anchored for a New YearEpisode Theme: Why a Biblical Worldview MattersShow SummaryAs we begin a new year, every Christian needs to think carefully about how they see the world. In this episode of Anchored in the Word, Dave Jenkins answers a crucial question: Why is it essential for Christians to have a biblical worldview? A biblical worldview is not optional; it is the lens through which we interpret reality, make decisions, and live faithfully before the Lord in a confused and hostile culture.Listen / WatchListen:Watch:Key ScripturesRomans 12:1–2 — Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind.Psalm 119:105 — God's Word as a lamp to our feet and a light to our path.John 17:17 — “Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth.”Matthew 28:18–20 — The Great Commission and our mission in the world.Episode HighlightsA biblical worldview anchors our thinking. Every person interprets life through a lens; Scripture must be that lens for the Christian, rooted in the storyline of creation, fall, redemption, and consummation.A biblical worldview helps us navigate culture. In a world saturated with secularism, relativism, and humanism, God's Word enables us to discern truth from error and stand firm.A biblical worldview shapes our morality and ethics. Right and wrong are not defined by our feelings, preferences, or cultural trends, but by God's unchanging character and revealed Word.A biblical worldview fuels our mission and witness. Seeing the world as God sees it moves us to love our neighbors, speak the truth in love, and make disciples of all nations.Full Episode NotesDave explains that every one of us lives with a worldview, whether we realize it or not. Our worldviewis the interpretive grid through which we understand God, ourselves, other people, and the world around us.For the Christian, a biblical worldview means that Scripture is our final authority for faith and life.It is grounded in the grand story of the Bible: creation, fall, redemption, and consummation.Creation tells us that God made the world, and that He made humanity in His image with dignity, purpose,and responsibility. The fall explains why our world is marked by sin, brokenness, confusion, and rebellionagainst God. Redemption shows us the center of history in the person and work of Jesus Christ, who lived, died, and rose again to save sinners. Consummation reminds us that Christ will return, judge the living and the dead, and make all things new.Because this story is true, it must shape how Christians think about everything: personal life, home life,work life, public life, morality, sexuality, justice, relationships, politics, and more. Dave shows how passages likeRomans 12:2 call believers not to be conformed to this world but to be transformed by the renewal of their minds, so that they may discern what is good, acceptable, and perfect according to God's will.A biblical worldview also equips us to navigate a culture that is increasingly hostile to God's design. Competing worldviews secularism, relativism, humanism, and others tell us that truth is flexible, identity is self-created, and morality is negotiable. Scripture, by contrast, gives an unchanging standard. God defines what it means to be human, what marriage is, what sexuality is for, and what holiness looks like.Dave emphasizes that Christians must be clear and courageous about these truths, especially in areas likemarriage and sexuality, where God's Word is often rejected or redefined. To dismiss or rewrite what the Bible saysabout these matters is ultimately to tamper with God's authority and to reveal a worldview that is no longeranchored in Scripture.Yet a biblical worldview is not merely about winning arguments; it is about loving God and loving neighbor. When we see the world through the lens of Scripture, we see people as God sees them: image-bearers in need of the gospel. Christ came to seek and to save the lost (Luke 19:10), and He sends His people into the world to make disciples, teaching them to obey all that He has commanded (Matthew 28:18–20).Because of this, our worldview fuels our mission. What we believe about the Bible will shape how we treat our families, our church members, our coworkers, our neighbors, and even those who oppose us. A biblical worldview calls us to clarity about truth and compassion toward people, holding both conviction and kindness together.Dave closes by urging listeners to cultivate a biblical worldview through daily engagement with God's Word. As this new year begins, Christians should commit themselves to reading, studying, meditating on, and obeying the Bible.When we consistently seek the Lord in Scripture and prayer, God renews our minds, shapes our desires, and conforms us more and more to the image of Christ.Takeaways & Reflection QuestionsHow would you currently describe your worldview? In what ways is it shaped by Scripture, and in what ways is it shaped by the culture?Where do you feel most pressured to conform to the world's thinking rather than to God's Word?What steps can you take this year to renew your mind daily in Scripture (Bible reading plan, Scripture memory, family worship, etc.)?How does a biblical worldview change the way you view your neighbors, coworkers, and community as a mission field?Call to ActionIf this episode encouraged you, please consider:Subscribing to the Servants of Grace Podcast Network wherever you listen.Sharing this episode with a friend, pastor, or small group who wants to think more biblically about the Christian life.Visit Anchored in the Word's page at Servants of Grace or at our YouTube.Stay anchored in the Word of God.

In this episode of Anchored by the Sword, I'm joined by author, speaker, and former corporate executive Ava Pennington to talk about what it truly means to flourish—not by striving harder, but by surrendering more deeply to the Holy Spirit.Ava shares her journey from the corporate world to full-time writing and teaching, her powerful testimony of faith shaped over decades, and the sacred grief of losing her husband of 40 years to cancer. With honesty and wisdom, she reminds us that grief is not linear, seasons change, and God remains our anchor through it all.We dive into her newest book, Flourish: Grace-Centered Practices to Protect and Grow a Fruitful Life in Christ, and unpack the Fruit of the Spirit—why we often feel like we “don't have enough,” and how God grows fruit in us through surrender, not self-effort.In This Episode, We Talk About: • Leaving the corporate world to follow God's call • Walking through grief with hope and eternal perspective • Why the Fruit of the Spirit is grown through surrender, not striving • Recognizing seasons and giving ourselves grace within them • Learning to draw strength from God instead of ourselvesThis conversation is rich, grounding, and deeply encouraging for anyone navigating loss, calling, or a longing for deeper spiritual growth.Bio:Ava Pennington is an accomplished author, speaker, and Bible teacher whose previous work, Reflections on the Names of God, won third place in the 2023 Golden Scroll Awards. Her passion for helping believers live abundantly in Christ shines through in Flourish, making her an engaging guest for podcasts, radio shows, or written features.Anchor Verses:Proverbs 18:10Ephesians 6:10Connect with Ava:Website: https://avapennington.comFB: https://www.facebook.com/share/1By4whU6i9/?mibextid=wwXIfr***We love hearing from you!
