What happens when a king surrounds himself with people who tell him exactly what he wants to hear? In 1 Kings 22, King Ahab faces a choice between comfortable lies and the uncomfortable truth of God's word and his decision sets the course for his final battle. In this chapter: Jeremy Gimpel and Ari Abramowitz explore the opening of 1 Kings Chapter 22, the final chapter of the Book of 1 Kings. Ahab and Yehoshafat prepare for war against Aram at Ramot-Gilead. Yehoshafat insists that they “inquire… of the word of the LORD” before going into battle. Ahab's 400 prophets unanimously predict victory—but Yehoshafat senses that something is wrong. Ahab reveals his hatred for Michayahu, the one prophet who refuses to simply tell him what he wants to hear. Michayahu delivers a difficult prophecy: Israel will be scattered and Ahab will fall. Ahab attempts to outsmart the prophecy by disguising himself in battle. A seemingly random arrow finds the one vulnerable gap in Ahab's armor. The episode asks a question that reaches far beyond Ahab: Do we really want the truth, or do we simply want to be told that we're right? This powerful chapter of 1 Kings 22 explores spiritual discernment, truth, prophecy, pride, divine providence, and the danger of surrounding ourselves with voices that only affirm what we already believe.

Dr Russell Thackeray interviews Melbourne-based clinician and BBM (Brain Benefit Movement) founder Aram Cargill, a father of nine and former musician who developed a protocol to improve self-regulation and executive function, informed by raising a daughter with level 3 autism and two sons with ADHD and publishing multiple journal papers.They discuss ADHD diagnosis via DSM indicators, how ADHD traits vary by individual, and how ADHD-like symptoms can arise from stress, trauma, environment, and modern “base load” pressure.Cargill differentiates ADHD and autism, describing autism as more insular and emphasising expectation management and transition “thresholds,” and explains hyperfocus and detail-noticing as strengths.They explore higher burnout in neurodivergent people, concerns about short-form scrolling (including a child's stutter resolving when iPads were removed), and his book “Seven Pillars of Mental Fitness,” arguing for proactive mental fitness in schools and a physiology-first lens; he outlines pillars including vision, attitude, awareness, adaptability, grit, recovery, and connectivity, and shares where to find the book and his research.00:00 Welcome and Introductions00:27 Aram Background and BBM01:58 What ADHD Really Is04:01 Symptoms vs Diagnosis07:10 ADHD and Autism Differences08:23 Autism Expectations and Safety12:16 Hyperfocus and Tech Careers15:41 Burnout and Modern Stress18:21 Social Media and Kids Brains22:20 Why Mental Fitness Matters27:10 Seven Pillars Overview29:45 Physiology First Psychology31:14 Who the Book Is For33:51 Where to Get the Book34:58 Find Aram and ClosingYou can contact us at info@qedod.comResources can be found online or link to our website https://resilienceunravelled.com

Clara en Sander verkiezen deze wilde danceparty van Aram Katsjatoerian boven een dubbel Espressoshot, want de Armeense componist ging voor pure adrenaline met zijn Sabeldans. Hij schreef de muziek als extraatje voor zijn eerste ballet en het werd bijna instant zijn grootste hit. Al had hij dat zelf misschien liever anders gezien, want hij beschreef de Sabeldans ooit als dat wild en luidruchtig kind binnen zijn muzikale familie. Nooit genoeg leven in de brouwerij, if you ask us!

a16z's Jen Kha and David George sit down with Accolade Partners' Aram Verdiyan to discuss how AI is changing the power law of technology investing, why the largest companies can compound advantages in ways that weren't possible before, and what that means for how investors construct portfolios.They explore why AI may be much bigger than traditional software, with applications reaching into labor, healthcare, transportation, services, and other major parts of the economy. David explains why capital itself can now reinforce an AI company's advantage by buying more compute, while Aram makes the case that AI should increasingly be treated as a core allocation rather than a satellite position.The conversation also gets into the changing economics of venture and growth investing, how to distinguish real AI traction from early hype, what AI means for legacy software and private equity, and why some of the largest opportunities may still be ahead in robotics, autonomy, healthcare, energy, and physical infrastructure.Resources:Follow Aram Verdiyan on X: https://x.com/aramverdiFollow Jen Kha on X: https://x.com/jkhamehlFollow David George on X: https://x.com/DavidGeorge83 Stay Updated:Find a16z on YouTube: YouTubeFind a16z on XFind a16z on LinkedInListen to the a16z Show on SpotifyListen to the a16z Show on Apple PodcastsFollow our host: https://twitter.com/eriktorenberg Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

Überall auf der Welt gibt es Kriege. Monsignore Wolfgang Huber denkt, dass die Menschen häufig nur auf sich selbst schauen und dadurch eine abgrenzende Haltung einnehmen. Die Würde des Menschen steht oft nicht im Mittelpunkt, auch aus machtpolitischen Gründen. Christinnen und Christen haben hier ein verbindendes Moment, sagt Huber, weil sie über Ethnien und Territorien hinweg überall auf der Welt miteinander verbunden sind. Im Evangelium wird der Ursprung Jesu Christi dargelegt. Die Aufzählung der vielen Namen - von Abraham bis hin zu Jesus selbst - zeigt uns die Geschichte Israels und wie Jesus in diesem Gottesvolk verwurzelt ist, sagt Monsignore Huber. Am Ende des Textes wird erzählt, dass Josef Maria eigentlich verlassen wollte. Ein Engel hält ihn davon ab und erzählt ihm, dass Maria ein Kind vom Heiligen Geist erwartet. Heute lädt uns dieser Text dazu ein, aufmerksam zu sein, so Huber. "Was kann der Wille Gottes für uns und für unser Leben sein?"Neugierig geworden? Jetzt reinhören in "Blick in die Bibel"!Aus dem Evangelium nach Matthäus:Buch des Ursprungs Jesu Christi, des Sohnes Davids, des Sohnes Abrahams: Abraham zeugte den Isaak, Isaak zeugte den Jakob, Jakob zeugte den Juda und seine Brüder. Juda zeugte den Perez und den Serach mit der Tamar. Perez zeugte den Hezron, Hezron zeugte den Aram, Aram zeugte den Amminadab, Amminadab zeugte den Nachschon, Nachschon zeugte den Salmon. Salmon zeugte den Boas mit der Rahab. Boas zeugte den Obed mit der Rut. Obed zeugte den Isai, Isai zeugte David, den König. David zeugte den Salomo mit der Frau des Urija. Salomo zeugte den Rehabeam, Rehabeam zeugte den Abija, Abija zeugte den Asa, Asa zeugte den Joschafat, Joschafat zeugte den Joram, Joram zeugte den Usija. Usija zeugte den Jotam, Jotam zeugte den Ahas, Ahas zeugte den Hiskija, Hiskija zeugte den Manasse, Manasse zeugte den Amos, Amos zeugte den Joschija. Joschija zeugte den Jojachin und seine Brüder; das war zur Zeit der Babylonischen Gefangenschaft. Nach der Babylonischen Gefangenschaft zeugte Jojachin den Schealtiël, Schealtiël zeugte den Serubbabel, Serubbabel zeugte den Abihud, Abihud zeugte den Eljakim, Eljakim zeugte den Azor. Azor zeugte den Zadok, Zadok zeugte den Achim, Achim zeugte den Eliud, Eliud zeugte den Eleasar, Eleasar zeugte den Mattan, Mattan zeugte den Jakob. Jakob zeugte den Josef, den Mann Marias; von ihr wurde Jesus geboren, der der Christus genannt wird. Mit der Geburt Jesu Christi war es so: Maria, seine Mutter, war mit Josef verlobt; noch bevor sie zusammengekommen waren, zeigte sich, dass sie ein Kind erwartete – durch das Wirken des Heiligen Geistes. Josef, ihr Mann, der gerecht war und sie nicht bloßstellen wollte, beschloss, sich in aller Stille von ihr zu trennen. Während er noch darüber nachdachte, siehe, da erschien ihm ein Engel des Herrn im Traum und sagte: Josef, Sohn Davids, fürchte dich nicht, Maria als deine Frau zu dir zu nehmen; denn das Kind, das sie erwartet, ist vom Heiligen Geist. Sie wird einen Sohn gebären; ihm sollst du den Namen Jesus geben; denn er wird sein Volk von seinen Sünden erlösen. Dies alles ist geschehen, damit sich erfüllte, was der Herr durch den Propheten gesagt hat: Siehe: Die Jungfrau wird empfangen und einen Sohn gebären und sie werden ihm den Namen Immanuel geben, das heißt übersetzt: Gott mit uns. (Mt 1,1-16.18-23)(© Ständige Kommission für die Herausgabe der gemeinsamen liturgischen Bücher im deutschen Sprachgebiet)

Infatti il bambino che è generato in lei viene dallo Spirito Santo; ella darà alla luce un figlio e tu lo chiamerai Gesù: egli infatti salverà il suo popolo dai suoi peccati».Tutto questo è avvenuto perché si compisse ciò che era stato detto dal Signore per mezzo del profeta: «Ecco, la vergine concepirà e darà alla luce un figlio: a lui sarà dato il nome di Emmanuele», che significa Dio con noi.Parola del Signore.

José, su esposo, que era hombre justo, no queriendo ponerla en evidencia, pensó dejarla en secreto.Mientras pensaba en estas cosas, un ángel del Señor le dijo en sueños: "José, hijo de David, no dudes en recibir en tu casa a María, tu esposa, porque ella ha concebido por obra del Espíritu Santo. Dará a luz un hijo y tú le pondrás el nombre de Jesús, porque él salvará a su pueblo de sus pecados".Todo esto sucedió para que se cumpliera lo que había dicho el Señor por boca del profeta Isaías: He aquí que la virgen concebirá y dará a luz un hijo, a quien pondrán el nombre de Emmanuel, que quiere decir Dios-con-nosotros.Palabra del Señor.

What if the reason you're not getting results isn't because your hormones are broken, your metabolism is damaged, or you haven't found the right supplement yet? In this episode, Danielle sits down with nutrition coach and founder of 4 Weeks to the Beach, Aram Grigorian, for a brutally honest conversation about fat loss, GLP-1 medications, perimenopause, body image, chronic dieting, strength training, and personal responsibility. They unpack when GLP-1s can be a powerful tool versus an irresponsible shortcut, the risks of rapid weight loss and under-eating, and why women in perimenopause are especially vulnerable to supplement, peptide, and "meno-belly" marketing. Danielle and Aram also tackle the difference between fault and responsibility, why extreme dieting doesn't create sustainable results, when food tracking becomes obsessive, and why your training and nutrition need to fit the season of life you're actually in. Because the uncomfortable truth is that most people don't need another hack, meal plan, or supplement. They need the right information, the right support, and enough consistency to let the boring shit actually work. And sometimes... you just need to put the fucking beef in the pan.   Learn more about working with Danielle  Join Mindset. Movement.

In this Bible Story, we learn about the faithful reign of King Uzziah. Although he does not finish well, the majority of his life was spent under the wisdom and guidance of God. He fortifies Judah, and protects them from harm. Then, his son Jotham follows by restoring Israel back to a loving relationship with God. This story is inspired by 2 Chronicles 26-27 & 2 Kings 15:1-7, 32-38.

He followed the footsteps of the kings of Israel and the wickedness of their neighbors. He even killed his own children as a sacrifice to foreign gods. God would not tolerate this and so he sent the armies of Aram and Israel to raid them and take captive their men.

Life is full of mountains and valleys. One day we’re standing on the mountaintop, taking in the view and thanking God for how good life feels. The next, we’re walking through a valley we never saw coming, wondering how we got here and how we’ll ever make it through. That’s life. No one gets a permanent address on the mountaintop, and no one stays in the valley forever. We all experience seasons of joy and seasons of sorrow, seasons of abundance and seasons of struggle. There are moments when we feel strong, confident, and full of faith, and there are moments when we’re tired, discouraged, and simply trying to take the next step. The mountains and the valleys are both part of the journey. Does this mean we hate the valleys and only live for the mountaintops? If so, we’re wasting much of our lives. It’s like the person who chooses misery all week long and only lives for the weekend. Or the person who is continually chasing greener grass, only to get there and find it’s always greener somewhere else. They’re waiting for life to begin when life has been happening all along. Sometimes I wonder if we’re guilty of doing the same thing spiritually. We endure the valleys and merely survive them while we wait for God to get us back to the mountain. We decide the mountaintop is where God is blessing us and the valley is where he’s forgotten us. We assume one is good and one is bad. But what if we’re wrong? What if God never intended for us to love one and despise the other? What if he designed both? God is in control of all things, so why does he allow these low valleys in life? Why doesn’t he take us to the mountaintop experiences and let us stay there? Why not total bliss all the time? Why can’t everything just be good and stay good? My husband and I have often joked over the years of raising three kids that when the rare moment comes along when all three are doing great at the same time—with no problems—we hold our breath. Experience has taught us it doesn’t last long. It’s our mountaintop. It’s bliss. It’s rare. We know we’re here, but we also know we probably don’t get to stay here. Before long, back down into the valley we’ll go with at least one of them. Have you ever noticed that’s the way life seems to work? We just can’t keep things at their very best for very long. The job is good, then the job is hard. The marriage is happy, then the marriage is struggling. Our bodies are healthy, then suddenly they aren’t. The bank account is full, then an unexpected expense arrives. We finally catch our breath, and then life takes it away again. The mountains are beautiful, but they’re temporary. The valleys are difficult, but they’re temporary too. And that’s not a flaw in God’s design. It’s part of it. If mountaintops became permanent, we would begin to worship the view instead of the God who brought us there. If valleys never came, we would never learn surrender and trust. The mountain gives us perspective, but the valley gives us depth. God has never promised us a life of uninterrupted mountaintops. What he has promised is something far better—His uninterrupted presence. He’s God on the mountain, and he’s God in the valley. He isn’t waiting for you at the top. He’s walking with you wherever you are. And perhaps that’s the invitation—not to spend our lives trying to escape the valleys or cling to the mountains, but to learn to look for God in both. 1 Kings 20:28, “The LORD says, ‘Because the Arameans think the LORD is a god of the hills and not a god of the valleys, I will deliver this vast army into your hands, and you will know that I am the LORD.” If you just pluck this one scripture out, it won’t make sense. So, let’s study the context and see what God is telling us. Israel are God’s people who seek him and trust him. They have enemies constantly trying to defeat them. One of those enemies is the kingdom of Aram who’s King is Ben-Hadad. The Arameans greatly outnumbered the Israelites, yet the Israelites had just defeated them in battle. As the Aramenas were trying to understand their battle and how they could have lost to an army so beneath them, they came to the conclusion it was because of the Israelites’ God. Verse 23, they said “Their gods are gods of the mountains. That is why they were too strong for us. But if we fight them in the valleys, surely we will be stronger than them.” With that in mind, the Arameans planned their next attack on God’s people in a valley. A valley, a low spot, where the Israelites’ mountaintop God would have no reign and no power. They didn’t doubt God’s existence, they doubted his authority over both the mountain and the valley. BUT THEY WERE WRONG! Our LORD isn’t just a mountaintop God. He’s not limited by good experiences and positive outcomes. He’s not just in the highs – he’s in the lows. His jurisdiction is not limited by location or circumstance. And this is why the LORD said in verse 28, “Because the Arameans think the LORD is a god of the hills and not a god of the valleys, I will deliver this vast army into your hands, and you will know that I am the LORD.” Essentially God is saying, “You’ve seen me work on the mountain, NOW WATCH ME WORK IN THE LOW VALLEYS TOO!” This is a lesson not only for the enemy, but for God’s people. “Stop thinking I will only give you victory up here, I can work in the lows too!” This was more than God winning a battle, this was God revealing himself. What? You think God has boundaries? You think there’s somewhere he doesn’t rule? Somewhere out of his reach? Somewhere his power isn’t effective? Something too hard or too big and beyond his dominion? You think there’s a place God can’t give victory. GIRL, JUST WATCH HIM. Today, we often live exactly as the Aramean’s who thought God was only the God of the mountain. We believe: God is with me when my marriage is good! God is with me when my body is healthy! God is with me when the money is there! God is with me when all the kids are doing well! God is with me when my prayers are answered! Yes, he’s with me … I can see him … look at all this goodness in my life! I’m on the mountaintop! But life doesn’t stay there, and soon we’re in a low valley and we begin asking: Where is God? Why isn’t he helping me? Has he left me? Did I do something wrong? Is he punishing me with this deep dark valley of hardship and struggle? And really what we’re wondering is if God stayed on the mountain and he’s not with us in the valley. But I want to give you one memorable fact that will stay with you forever. NOTHING GROWS ON THE MOUNTAINTOP. Have you ever climbed a really tall mountain – I’m talking a legit mountain. Have you noticed the higher you go, the thinner the air gets. And as you continue the climb, it just becomes rocky. No trees. No fruit. No grass. No flowers. The view is remarkable and it feels great to stand on top of the mountain, but NOTHING GROWS UP THERE. That, my friends, is life. You don’t grow in your moutaintop moments. When everything is so perfectly good, you’re not growing. And that’s why God doesn’t leave you up there. He lovingly brings you back down to the valley because in the valley is where YOU GROW! Trees grow in the valley. Fruit is produced in the valley. Flowers are in abundance in the valley. It’s the low places where we grow. I find it interesting that God could have simply prevented the second battle altogether. Instead, He allowed Israel to go right back into another fight. Why? Because there was something about Himself He wanted revealed that could only be revealed in the valley. God isn’t better on the mountain. He’s simply different there. The mountain may reveal His majesty, but the valley reveals His faithfulness. What God is showing us is regardless of the place we are in life, regardless of the highs and lows, he is the LORD over every place. Just as the mountain doesn’t make him God, neither do the valleys of life diminish him. He is just as present, just as powerful, and just as soverign in the lowest and hardest of valleys in your life as he is on the highest and most victorious mountain. I have a beautiful friend currently battling a relentless and ugly cancer. This cancer has dragged her through one heck of a dark valley. But here in this valley, she has discovered God’s presence unlike ever before. She has learned He is her only hope. She has learned peace that doesn’t make sense. She has learned full surrender and unwavering faith. That’s what valleys do to us, and I have to believe that’s one of the reasons God allows them. He reveals Himself in such personal and powerful ways. Perhaps her mountaintop moments will come and she will stand whole, healthy, and healed with a long, beautiful life ahead of her. Oh, how I pray she experiences that. But here’s what I know—she won’t grow up there. She’s growing down here. And maybe that’s why God doesn’t allow us to permanently live on the mountaintops. We would enjoy him there, but we wouldn’t NEED him there. We would celebrate him there, but we wouldn’t CLING to him there. It is in the valley where we discover he really is enough. It’s in the valley where we learn he wasn’t kidding when he said he would never leave us or forsake us. It’s in the valley where we find his strength made perfect in our weakness. It’s in the valley where we discover his peace isn’t dependent on our circumstances and his goodness isn’t diminished by our suffering. Mountaintops are where we often celebrate God. Valleys are where we come to know him. So perhaps we’ve had it wrong all along. Perhaps the goal isn’t to spend our lives desperately trying to escape the valleys and cling to the mountains. Perhaps the goal is to stop asking, “How do I get out of here?” long enough to ask, “Lord, what are You revealing here?” Because He’s still the LORD here. The valley has never been outside of his jurisdiction. It has never been beyond his reach. It has never been beneath his attention. And just as He told the Arameans thousands of years ago, I believe he is still saying to his people today, “You think you’ve seen me work before? Just watch me work here too.” So, if you find yourself standing on a mountaintop today, breathe it in. Thank him for the view. Celebrate the joy. Receive it as a gift. And if you find yourself in a valley today, don’t despise it. Don’t assume you’ve been abandoned there. Don’t waste this season merely trying to survive it. Look for him there. Because he isn’t just waiting for you on the next mountaintop. He’s already standing beside you in the valley. He is the LORD of both. Don’t spend your life trying to escape the valleys or trying to cling to the mountains, but learn to look for God in both.
