✅ The Seven A's of confession (and why "I'm sorry" isn't enough for deep healing) ✅ How to break the cycle of emotionally stunted men in your family line ✅ The 6-second technique that can save your marriage and your relationships with your kids ✅ Why going "upstream" is better than constantly putting out fires FULL SHOW NOTES >  SUMMARY: What if the reason marriages grow cold after the honeymoon year isn't about compatibility, but about something dads never learned to model? In this episode, Ken Sande reveals how emotionally stunted men are created when fathers never show their kids how to say "I'm sorry" or "I need help." You'll discover the Seven A's of confession that can break generational patterns and the upstream approach to preventing conflict before it starts. Plus, Ken shares practical tools for managing your emotions in the heat of the moment—including the six-second technique that can save your tongue from doing damage. Key Takeaways: More people are watching your responses to conflict than you realize—about 10 times more—and you're teaching through your reactions. The Seven A's of confession provide a framework for meaningful apologies that actually heal relationships rather than just checking a box. Emotional stunting passes from generation to generation when fathers never model humility, confession, or asking for help. The READ technique (Recognize, Evaluate, Anticipate, Direct) helps you manage amygdala hijacking and respond thoughtfully instead of reactively. Going "upstream" to prevent conflict through relational wisdom is more effective than constantly putting out the fires of broken relationships. Your royal identity as a child of God, friend of Jesus, and ambassador of reconciliation should shape how you lead your family 24/7. Guest: Ken Sande founded Peacemaker Ministries and Relational Wisdom 360, organizations focused on conflict resolution and relationship skills. After 30 years of mediating conflicts—including over 600 divorce cases with more than half reconciling—Ken shifted focus to go "upstream" and help people prevent conflict through biblical emotional intelligence. He's the author of multiple books on peacemaking and relational wisdom, and lives in Billings, Montana, where he enjoys hiking and backpacking with his family and grandchildren.

Presa locală consideră că mișcarea poate avea succes: o bună parte a cetățenilor sunt de acord cu revendicările studențești și ar vota o listă propusă de aceștia. Mișcarea studențească are șanse reale de a câștiga alegerile, relateazăvreme.com care scrie că studenții sârbi cer dizolvarea Parlamentului și convocarea de alegeri legislative anticipate. Care sunt șansele lor? Se întreabă publicația.„Decizia studenților de a se adresa regimului actual cu o cerere de dizolvare a parlamentului național și convocare de alegeri parlamentare anticipate nu vine din senin și nu este surprinzătoare.”Toată lumea a înțeles că autoritățile nu numai că au refuzat să răspundă revendicărilor studenților, dar au răspuns crizei politice cu o represiune din ce în ce mai brutală și o propagandă din ce în ce mai josnică.Mai multe sondaje de opinie publicate recent arată că marea majoritate a cetățenilor sârbi susține satisfacerea revendicărilor studențești și că o parte semnificativă a acestor cetățeni ar fi dispuși să voteze pentru o listă susținută de studenți.Dialogul dintre nou premier sârb și universități este sincer?Rectorul Universității de Arte din Belgrad, Mirjana Nikolić, a declarat, referitor la a treia întâlnire care a avut loc  între prim-ministrul Đura Macut și rectorul Universității din Belgrad, Vladan Đokić, că rămâne o întrebare majoră: dacă dialogul dintre guvern și universitate este cu adevărat sincer, citim în n1info.rs.Nikolić a adăugat că, întrucât prim-ministrul este el însuși profesor universitar, ar trebui să înțeleagă poziția comunității academice, relatează site-ul postului de televiziune.„Așadar, dacă, în timpul unei întâlniri, prezinți situația instituției tale, iar apoi ți se cere să te organizezi conform unei metodologii impuse din exterior, cred că nu putem vorbi despre un dialog sincer și complet.”În ceea ce privește reluarea, sau mai degrabă compensarea anului universitar, ea a subliniat că actualul ministru al Educației solicită universităților să stabilească singure data revenirii la cursuri.„Pot spune din partea Universității de Arte că avem un model pentru recuperarea cursurilor, dar nu avem încă o dată”, a spus ea. Pentru că „este total iluzoriu să stabilești o dată fără a lua în considerare factorul esențial în toată această discuție: studenții, desigur”.Sprijin din Luxemburg pentru aderarea Muntenegrului la UEPreședintele Parlamentului Muntenegrului, Andrija Mandić, s-a întâlnit cu președintele Parlamentului Marelui Ducat al Luxemburgului, Claude Vissel, la Conferința președinților parlamentelor statelor membre ale Uniunii Europene de la Budapesta. Mandić a subliniat importanța sprijinului continuu al Luxemburgului pentru Muntenegru în drumul său către Uniunea Europeană, subliniind că Luxemburgul, cu o populație aproximativ aceeași cu cea a Muntenegrului, reprezintă un adevărat exemplu de succes și de standard de viață european la care aspiră și Muntenegru, relatează rtcg.me.Andrija Mandić a adăugat că, datorită programului de reformă dezvoltat cu succes, Muntenegru are oportunitatea de a utiliza 383,4 milioane euro din fonduri europene și că recenta sa intrare în sistemul SEPA a permis plăți financiare mai rapide și mai eficiente. Au fost evidențiate rezultatele semnificative obținute la sfârșitul anului 2024, când Muntenegru a încheiat trei capitole importante ale negocierilor cu UE. Obiectivul, așa cum a fost anunțat, este de a închide toate capitolele de negociere până la sfârșitul anului 2026 și de a „deveni membru al Uniunii Europene în 2028.”Expoziție de desen arhitectural la Tiranapanorama.com.al scrie despre o expoziție de desen arhitectural la Tirana, curatoriată de Sergei Tchoban, renumit arhitect și fondator al Fundației Tchoban din Berlin.Această expoziție prezintă în Albania o selecție de desene arhitecturale reprezentative nu doar pentru arta desenului, ci și pentru procesul creativ al arhitecturii contemporane și istorice. Sergei Tchoban a fondat Muzeul Desenului Arhitectural din Berlin, o instituție unică ce promovează importanța desenului în arhitectură.De ce are nevoie Tirana de un muzeu de desen arhitectural? Tirana și zonele sale turistice trec printr-o fază de continuă transformare urbană și arhitecturală. Clădirile noi, proiectele inovatoare și dezvoltările urbane necesită o platformă unde cetățenii și profesioniștii să poată înțelege și aprecia procesul creativ din spatele lor. Un muzeu dedicat desenului arhitectural ar servi drept arhivă vizuală a dezvoltării orașului, documentând și expunând proiectele care au modelat și vor modela Tirana. Mai mult, o astfel de instituție ar fi un instrument educațional puternic pentru studenții de arhitectură, design și arte vizuale, oferindu-le oportunitatea de a studia și de a se inspira dintr-o varietate de desene, de la schițe conceptuale la detalii tehnice. Au participat la Revista Presei Europa Plus:Milo POPOVIC, MuntenegruAndjela RADULOVIC, SerbiaSofija JOVANOVIĆ, SerbiaLavdije XHELILI, Albania

Active Mixing - From Boring to Baller Episode Overview In this episode, Michael Curtis shares practical strategies for creating more engaging, dynamic worship mixes. Drawing from his background as a professional bass player and mixer, he explores how intentionality and specificity can transform "boring" mixes into creative, engaging experiences that better serve worship environments. Time Stamps & Key Points Introduction [00:48] Michael introduces the concept of "active mixing" versus boring mixing The challenge: Moving beyond "it sounds fine" to creating engaging, dynamic mixes Creativity as the antidote to boring mixing Creativity Through Structure [01:41] Biblical concept of creation: bringing order from formlessness The playground analogy: Children with fenced playgrounds use 90% of the space vs. 30% without fences "Sometimes what feels like a straight jacket is actually a Narnia closet" Leadership through specificity and making finer distinctions Strategies for Worship Pastors [05:52] Prescriptive leadership can be valuable when appropriate The progression from 10 Commandments (prescriptive) to Sermon on the Mount (descriptive) Matching leadership style to team maturity level Create "sit-down chords" - signals that create clear expectations Setting up rhythms and cues that guide the worship team Organize tracks by function, not just instrument: Percussion: Rhythm-driving elements Foundation: Bass and low-end elements Filler: Pads and ambient elements Leads: Melodic elements that guide congregation Gamify growth paths for volunteers Create progressive learning steps (like unlocking levels in a game) Apply "arbitrary limits" that help beginners master fundamentals before moving on Name and assign musical ownership Clarify who owns each musical element at any given time Consider adding a dedicated "music producer" position Strategies for Musicians [12:36] "Rhythm Randy needs a retirement party" Moving beyond mindlessly strumming the chord chart Playing a part rather than just playing the chart Use the whole playground within boundaries Finding creative ways to express within structure Create "alley-oop" moments Intentional handoffs between instruments Setting up moments for other musicians to shine Beware of "bedroom vacuums" Sounds created in isolation often take up too much sonic space Smaller sonic footprint needed in larger ensembles Interesting is greater than good Focus on creating compelling sounds, not just technically correct ones Hire both "Jekyll and Hyde" Balance between foundational players and texture specialists Strategies for Front of House Engineers [18:57] Be the guide - lead with your decisions Take charge of the mix and make intentional choices Use contrast effectively Create distinction between elements (can't have "close" without "far") Highlight different instruments in different sections Anticipate "oops" moments, don't just react Push faders before transitions, not after they happen Vary verse highlights Intentionally feature different instruments in different verses Keep congregation engaged through variety Develop common tonal language The "5-1-2" system for describing frequency ranges Creating shared vocabulary for sound issues Reference the real Compare your mix to professional recordings Combat ear fatigue by checking against references Mise en place - everything in its place Strategic console layout for efficient mixing Positioning faders for easy access during active mixing Conclusion [24:25] Start with clear direction (10 Commandments approach) then move to principles (Sermon on the Mount) Have the courage to be specific with your team Embrace structure as a pathway to creativity Key Quotes "Sometimes what feels like a straight jacket is actually a Narnia closet." "Move away from playing the chart to playing the part." "It is in that company's best interest to give you a patch that sounds great out of the box, but that's taking up a lot of real estate to make it sound good on its own." "Be the guide, take charge, lead your congregation with your decisions." "There cannot be close if there's not far, there cannot be wide if there isn't narrow." "Interesting is greater than or at least equal to good." Practical Applications For Worship Pastors: Organize tracks by function rather than instrument type Create clear growth paths for volunteers Be appropriately prescriptive with newer team members For Musicians: Consider your sonic footprint within the full band context Play intentional parts, not just the chord chart Create sounds that are interesting, not just technically correct For Sound Engineers: Use your left and right hands strategically on the console Intentionally highlight different instruments in different verses Reference professional mixes to maintain perspective Connect & Continue For more insights on active mixing and creative worship production, connect with Michael Curtis and the Church Front team.

You feel it, right? That tension thick enough to slice, the elephant in the room no one dares mention. But sooner or later, it has to be dealt with. Most people think resolving conflict demands complex processes. In reality, the solution usually boils down to simply hashing it out. Yet, when friction arises, we often overcomplicate things or avoid them altogether, escalating drama. It's time to step up and initiate tough conversations. Brace yourself. Some people will resist. Some simply lack the emotional tools to process these interactions. Others you'll never fully reconcile with, but we can NEVER afford to be escapists, personally or professionally. Even when doing the right thing doesn't guarantee success, clear communication and accountability are essential. Today's episode hits like the perfect song for the moment. Right on time, and rhythm on point. This is the sit-down talk, crucial and overdue, that we, and our society as a whole, needs to hear. Tune in as Brett dives into these key insights, breaking down how they relate directly to his experiences, and yours: Navigate uncomfortable first steps with proven scripts. Anticipate resistance and pivot when faced with avoidance. Utilize mediation and lateral tactics when standard approaches stall.

From 03/18 Hour 3: The Sports Junkies anticipate that "Warfare" will crush in theaters.

This Episode - Turning an Unlikely Business into a Multi-Million Dollar Success Meet Will Milliken, president of a fast-growing dog waste removal company and founder of the President of Swoop Scoop® and founder of Poop Scoop Millionaire™. What started as a small side hustle has become a booming business with multiple locations and a thriving online community for aspiring entrepreneurs. Will shares how he transitioned from digital marketing to home services, why the pet waste removal industry took off, and the key strategies that helped him scale. With a focus on exceptional service and customer care, Swoop Scoop® has grown into a leading company serving thousands of satisfied clients. We also cover the marketing strategies that work (and don't), building a standout brand, and the importance of fast customer response times. Plus, Will shares the surprising lessons he learned from a failed partnership with Pizza Hut and how he's preparing for national expansion. Key Takeaways: Standardized, flat-rate pricing works best: customers prefer knowing costs upfront. Fast response time is critical: answering inquiries quickly sets businesses apart in home services. Professional branding (uniforms, truck wraps, CRM systems) increases trust and allows for premium pricing. Scaling starts with predictable lead generation. The biggest bottleneck is acquiring customers consistently. Marketing experiments matter. Facebook ads, Google SEO, and wrapped trucks work best, while some partnerships (like pizza box ads) miss the mark. Standardized operations make scaling easier. A clear system for hiring, training, and customer acquisition makes franchising a real possibility. Track Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) vs. Customer Lifetime Value (LTV): understanding these numbers earlier could have cut growth time in half. Anticipate bottlenecks as you scale: hiring, vehicle acquisition, and equipment logistics become challenges as the business grows. If you don't know how to acquire customers, your business will struggle. If you're not willing to start a poop scooping business, you're probably not going to start any business. Will's journey proves that even the most unexpected businesses can be wildly profitable with the right systems and mindset. Ready to think outside the box (or the yard)? This episode will change the way you look at service businesses.

I'm with an external HR firm. Unfortunately, this call is to let you know that your employment has been terminated, effective immediately.” Managing up is not kissing up. Managing up is strategically navigating relationships with those who have more positional power than you, namely your boss. It's a critical skill set for maneuvering through the complex web of power dynamics, conversations, and unspoken expectations that shape our daily work lives. The triple win – What is something you can do that is good for you, good for your boss, and good for the company? Focus on those issues and solving those problems, and good things will happen for you as you grow your career. Like Carly Fiorina. Run towards the fire. Solving those tough problems will help you, your boss, and your company Meeting with a CEO. Connect what you did with what matters. Adapt your communication to that. Have upward empathy. Put yourself in their shoes. What matters to them? Prior to the meeting, meet with their Chief of Staff. Anticipate objections and answer them before they are asked. Create a one-pager for your boss when they are doing your performance review. Highlight your wins. Remind them. Make it easy on them. Do what Lee Rivas told me to do. Every week, send an email with bullet points for all the things you did to help your boss and the company. For the one pagers - be proactive, start with wins, results and outcomes. it's not self-promoting; it's informing. Identify 1-3 key areas where you need their support. Help them become a trusted advisor or partner. Design your 1:1. Send them the topics to talk about so you can drive those discussions. Make their life easier. They have enough other things to worry about. Feedback can only happen after alignment, styles, ownership, boundaries... They go in order. Define your A B Cs Assumptions, Behaviors, Change you want to see The advancement conversation - Be open, and share what you want to do and how you can get there. My Dustyn Kim example and how I messed it up. The Money conversation - You don't get a raise just because time has passed. It has to be tied to results. Don't talk about the past and what you've done. Talk about what you can do to earn the company more. Don't do the "I deserve this" thing. Bosses hate that. Managing up is not kissing up. Managing up is strategically navigating relationships with those who have more positional power than you, namely your boss. It's a critical skill set for maneuvering through the complex web of power dynamics, conversations, and unspoken expectations that shape our daily work lives. Everything changes when you understand the art and science of influencing others while keeping your own emotions and insecurities in check.  “Managing up isn't really about making your boss's life easier. It's about taking control of your own work experience.” 10 Key Conversations: The Alignment Conversation How can I get in my boss's head to understand their needs, motivations, and goals?
