E310: The Mish Mosh Episode   E310 Introduction Today's episode is another Firestarter (short format) episode aptly titled The Mish Mosh EP. I have a couple of memes, a few tidbits from the narrative battlefield...

In this episode, Jeff Mains sits down with Tom Rossi, technical co-founder of Higher Pixels and BuzzSprout, to explore what it really takes to build sustainable SaaS businesses. Tom shares the journey from running an internet service provider in the late '90s to creating BuzzSprout, one of the most beloved podcast hosting platforms. The conversation dives deep into the importance of focus over feature bloat, why support should be treated as a product feature, and how community and brand affinity create lasting competitive advantages. Tom also challenges conventional wisdom about video podcasting, shares hard-won lessons about remote culture, and reveals why "you'll never be as dumb as you are right now" is one of the most empowering principles for decision-making.Key Takeaways[4:26] - The Birth of BuzzSprout: How a simple problem (churches wanting to share sermons online) led to building a podcast hosting platform in 2007-2008[6:37] - Design as Competitive Advantage: Creating intentional tension between designers and programmers to achieve the best user experience[7:19] - Support as a Feature: Why your support team isn't an afterthought—it's an unsung feature that drives brand loyalty[8:13] - The Conference Photo Moment: When podcasters asked for photos with the support team instead of the founders—a testament to exceptional customer service[11:00] - Spinning Plates to Focused Teams: The evolution from juggling multiple products to going all-in on BuzzSprout when podcasting exploded[12:11] - The Developer Trap: Why SaaS founders (especially developers) keep building features instead of focusing on sales and marketing[13:58] - Focus on New Podcasters: The strategic decision to stop competing for existing customers and focus entirely on helping new podcasters get started[20:06] - Video vs. Audio Podcasting: Why video is being over-hyped and the fundamental difference between the two mediums[21:51] - The TikTok Disaster Podcast Success Story: How one podcaster used short-form video with disaster images to drive massive podcast growth without ever appearing on camera[24:28] - Respect the Medium: Create 3-5 minutes of engaging video for discovery, not 45-minute talking head uploads[28:34] - The 28 Downloads Benchmark: If you get 28+ downloads in the first 7 days, you're in the top 50% of all BuzzSprout podcasts[34:01] - Building Remote Culture: The challenge of creating autonomy without isolation in fully remote teams[37:15] - Basecamp & Experiments: How Higher Pixels uses the 37signals approach and lets each team experiment with their own leadership structure[42:53] - "You'll Never Be as Dumb as You Are Right Now": The empowering principle that delays decisions until you have more information and encourages running minimal experiments[44:47] - Your First Episode Will Be Your Worst: Why podcasters (and founders) should ship quickly and iterate rather than agonize over perfectionTweetable Quotes"Support is an unsung feature. When someone reaches out into the void at midnight and gets a friendly, helpful response—that changes how they see your brand." — Tom Rossi"You'll never be as dumb as you are right now.

Was, wenn das eigene Kind vor einem geht? Wolfgang Schulz hat genau das erlebt. Sein Sohn Marcel starb mit 31 Jahren an den Folgen eines Hirntumors. Über die anderthalb Jahre des Abschiednehmens, der Pflege und der unendlichen Nähe hat er einen Text mit dem Titel „Mein undankbarer Sohn“ geschrieben. Was wie ein Vorwurf klingt, ist in Wahrheit das größte Kompliment, das er seinem Sohn machen kann – ein Zeugnis für eine bedingungslose Liebe, die keine Dankesworte braucht. Wir sprechen mit Wolfgang Schulz über den größten denkbaren Schmerz und die Suche nach einem Weg, weiterzuleben – ein Weg, der ihn bis ans Basecamp des Mount Everest führt. Tim Wache besucht seit 2019 Menschen in Hospizen, um mit ihnen über das Leben zu sprechen – über das, was wirklich zählt, was bleibt und was sie am Ende noch sagen möchten. Aus diesen Begegnungen sind zwei berührende Bücher entstanden, voller letzter Sätze, ungefilterter Ehrlichkeit, Lebensweisheit und Humor. Im Gespräch erzählt Tim, was ihn zu dieser Arbeit geführt hat, welche Geschichten ihm bis heute nahegehen sind und warum die letzten Stunden eines Menschen manchmal für sehr viel Klarheit sorgen können. Ein tiefes, warmes Gespräch über Mut, Nähe, Verlust – und über die Kraft, die in echten Begegnungen steckt.

What motivates you to protect the vulnerable? Can you share an experience of protecting the vulnerable that was meaningful to you? 4. What are Biblical examples of Jesus protecting the vulnerable? 5. Do you find that protecting the vulnerable comes to you naturally? Why or Why not? What things make it challenging for you? 6.

Durability Over Longevity: Build Your Pain-Free Body with guest expert Juliet StarrettDo you feel like you're constantly "climbing" a mountain of health advice but never actually reaching the top? In this masterclass episode, Samantha sits down with Juliet Starrett—CEO, 3-time World Champion athlete, and co-author of the blockbuster Built to Move. Juliet breaks down why we need to stop looking for "hacks" and start returning to what she calls Basecamp. This is a system of five essential habits designed for the "busy working mom" who doesn't have time to meal prep or spend three hours in a sauna but refuses to settle for a body that feels like a prison.We're diving into the "24-Hour Duty Cycle" and how to stop treating missed workouts like moral failures. From the secret of the "800-Gram Challenge" to the non-negotiable science of fueling your body within 30 minutes of a workout, Juliet gives us the practical, "no-weirdo-diet" blueprint for becoming durable enough to live fully and independently well into our 80s.What You'll Learn in This Episode:The Basecamp System: The five critical daily habits that hold your health together when life gets chaotic.Durability vs. Longevity: Why "durability" is a more powerful term for survivors and high-performers.The 800-Gram Challenge: How to hit your fiber and micronutrient goals without the "prison" of constant tracking.Kitchen Island Steps: Why 8,000 steps isn't a workout—it's intentional movement you can accumulate in your own kitchen.Protein Timing: The "30 minutes or less" rule for women that changes the game for recovery and muscle building.Toxic Cardio vs. Mass: Moving past the "restrict" mindset to signal to your body that it is safe to build muscle.Low Energy Availability: Why under-eating is the secret scourge of midlife and how muscle mass actually lets you eat more.And so much more!!!!About Our Guest Expert:Juliet Starrett is a certified Master Nutrition Coach, co-founder and CEO of San Francisco CrossFit, co-author of the Wall Street Journal bestseller Desk Bow and New York Times bestseller Built to Move, and co-host of the Ready State Podcast.

Bob Schwahn | Lead Pastor | February 8, 2026 Referenced Scripture: John 13:34-35, Ephesians 5:25, 1 Corinthians 3:16-17, Ephesians 3:4-6 Reflection Questions:1. Mission Statement: Together, we lead people in becoming All In followers of Jesus. — Do you believe that an ALL IN follower of Jesus must live out their faith TOGETHER with other believers? Why or why not? 2. Read John 13:34-35 — How would you describe the way Jesus has loved us? What adjectives would you use? How is it even possible for us to love other people in that same way? 3. Jesus said the defining characteristic of an ALL IN follower is seen in our love for one another. How would you evaluate your love for other followers? How would you evaluate other followers' love for you? 4. Can we love Jesus while at the same time not be actively loving His church (other followers)? Why or why not? 5. What makes it difficult for you to love other followers this way? What barriers do you need to overcome? What are some practical ways you could seek to overcome those barriers? 6. For us to be known and loved (and to love and know others) requires vulnerability. What makes vulnerability difficult for people? Difficult for you? How can we create environments that foster greater vulnerability? 7. Shame → Shame isn't just feeling bad about yourself; it's a deep fear that you are unloveable; that if people knew who you really were, they would reject you. 8. How can shame create a barrier to authentic loving relationships? How can we overcome shame? How can we help others overcome shame? 9. How might Sunday Gatherings be different if everyone showed up with a mindset to know and love other people?

The way organizations think about artificial intelligence (AI) in the workplace has shifted dramatically over the past few years. While early conversations centered on isolated experiments and technological hype, organizations now face the much harder task of integrating AI into the fabric of how work gets done. We welcome Melissa Reeve, author of “Hyper Adaptive: Rewiring the Enterprise to Become AI Native,” to discuss what AI adoption really means for people, processes, and culture.Melissa tackles some tough questions about organizational complexity, shifting operating models, and the critical role of culture and systems thinking in successful AI integration. Listeners will get candid advice on starting small, experimenting with purpose, and preparing for the rewiring ahead. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...03:38 Integrating AI into organizations12:47 AI Native enterprise structure15:51 Dynamic AI governance framework18:58 AI implementation foundations23:56 Process mapping for AI integration29:44 Balancing efficiency and leadership focus37:02 Start small with value streams40:59 Innovative organizational funding models42:14 Starting a skills-focused organization47:03 Digital Twins in Product TestingNavigating the AI Revolution at WorkMelissa Reeve's journey began on the factory floors of Toyota, learning firsthand how small process shifts can drive system-wide change. Building on years of research and influence from Lean, Agile, and DevOps practitioners, Reeve authored a five-stage maturity model she calls hyperadaptive, designed to guide organizations through the incremental steps needed to become truly AI-native.The five stages of Melissa's model:Foundation – Build organizational understanding of AI; create dynamic governance structures and clarify guardrails. Optimization – Identify and optimize business processes for AI interactions; move beyond basic experimentation. Agents & Automation – Develop and manage AI agents that execute tasks and processes autonomously. Rewiring – Shift organizational architecture from rigid hierarchies to flexible, value-stream teams funded and incentivized differently. Hyperadaptive – Fully sense-and-respond organizations capable of real-time adaptation.Melissa splits these into two main categories: Basecamp (the first three stages, where most companies currently operate) and the Emerging Frontier (rewiring and hyper adaptivity).Why Organizations Struggle with AI IntegrationAccording to Melissa, most organizations are stuck because they underestimate the support structures required for successful AI adoption. It's not just about updating technology, in fact, 70-80% of AI success depends on people, culture, and processes, not algorithms. Companies often rush to deploy AI agents or experiment without a clear North Star, leading to pilot fatigue and an 80% failure rate. Many organizations haven't even finished laying the foundational groundwork, such as establishing unified governance or mapping work processes.Another common pitfall is the tendency to try everything at once. Pressure for fast results drives teams to bite off too much, resulting in burnout and costly errors.Moving from Experimentation to Purposeful TransformationPlaying with AI is not a strategy. While experimentation is necessary, organizations must put bounds on these efforts, know why they're experimenting, what hypothesis they're testing, and what success will look like.One necessary precursor is getting to grips with how your organization actually works. Many leaders lack visibility into workflows, decisions, and skillsets, making process optimization difficult. Reeve suggests collaborative process mapping—sometimes supported by AI tools—to unlock tacit knowledge and identify where AI can augment or reinvent workflows.Organizing Around Value StreamsOne of the most transformative elements is the shift from function-based silos to cross-functional value stream teams. Melissa draws on examples from Toyota, Zappos, and Unilever—organizations that reimagine workflows, funding mechanisms, and team incentives to deliver value rather than preserve hierarchy. Dynamic budgeting, focused experimentation, and flexible team structures help organizations scale AI success without tearing up everything at once.Culture, Upskilling, and Durable SuccessAI's impact will be decided by how well organizations invest in people. Unilever's Future Fit program exemplifies this approach, aligning reskilling efforts to individual purpose and business needs. It's not algorithms that set successful organizations apart, but their ability to create cultures and support systems that empower people to adapt, reinvent themselves, and thrive amidst change.Start small, experiment with purpose, invest in support structures, and prepare to rewire not just technology, but how your organization thinks about work itself. AI may be the catalyst, but people, empowered and organized around value, are the key to lasting transformation. Resources & People MentionedHyperadaptive: Rewiring the Enterprise to Become AI-Native Connect with Melissa ReeveMelissa M.

Bob Schwahn  |  Lead Pastor  |  February 1, 2026 Referenced Scripture:  Matthew 11:28-30, Ezekiel 36:25-28, John 16:7, Romans 8:10-11, Galatians 3:2-3, Galatians 5:25   Reflection Questions: 1. When you realize that the invitation to follow Jesus means we actually are expected to become like Him, how do you respond to that idea?  Why can that thought be overwhelming?  Does this seem impossible?  Why or why not? 2. Read Matthew 11:28-30 What were the two uses of the word “yoke” that Jesus is referring to here?  Describe the imagery of being “yoked” to Jesus like two oxen?  How does that imagery help us understand how we are to walk our life with Jesus?  How does this help us to become like Jesus?   3. If we are weary and burdened in our life, what does that say to us about our walk with Jesus and our connection to Him?  How can Jesus actually make our yoke easy and our burden light?  Does that mean that everything in life will be easy and light?  Why or why not?   4. True life in Jesus is found when we surrender our lives fully to Him.  What does it mean to surrender fully to Jesus?  Why can that word be difficult for us to deal with?  What makes actually surrendering difficult for you?   5. How does surrendering to Jesus actually bring freedom and life to our souls?  Explain.   What things in this life can we become free of through surrendering?  Explain.   6. The opposite of surrender is control?  How can trying to control everything in life be exhausting?  (making us weary and burdened)   7. Reflect on the illustration from the sermon of the clenched fist vs the open palm.  What did that experience show you?  Where in your life do you need to unclench your fist and open your hands?   8. Serenity Prayer God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.  What wisdom do you see in this simple prayer?  How could this be helpful in your learning to surrender?   9. Describe Spiritual breathing… What is exhaling?  →  why is confession of sin important? What is inhaling?  →  how can we tangibly give control to the Spirit? 10. If peace in your soul is evidence of a surrendered life… How surrendered is your life today on a scale 1-10?  Explain. If anxiety in your soul is evidence of a need to surrender… How anxious is your life today on a scale 1-10?  Explain. 11. Where do you need to surrender control in your life to Jesus today?   What's your next step?  Connect: We'd love to connect with you!

Clint Bentley and Greg Kwedar are the two brilliant minds behind Train Dreams, the Oscar-nominated adaptation of Denis Johnson's novella. Their film is emotionally devastating in ways that stay with you long after the credits roll. In this interview, I wanted to understand how that kind of film actually gets made. We talk about how they taught themselves filmmaking by building a mental archive of films, how a single frame can unlock an entire scene, and why adapting a book spirit often requires stepping away from its words. This How I Write episode is an exploration into how two directors think together, and how a deeply human story becomes something monumental. About the host Hey!

Welcome to this episode of the Monday Money Coaching Call. Look, it is absolutely freezing here in Austin, Texas. We are talking 18 degrees, which basically means the entire state shuts down because—let's be honest—nobody here knows how to drive on ice. So, while the roads are slick, we are chilling inside where the coffee is hot, and the deals are even hotter.If you missed our massive livestream this past Saturday, don't worry. We spent over two hours breaking down a tape of 3,067 non-performing first liens. But for today's coaching call, I wanted to peel back the onion a little further. We are doing a deep dive specifically into the remaining 200+ Texas assets. Why Texas? Because it's the fastest foreclosure state in the country, and when you combine speed with equity, you find the magic.In this episode, I'm walking you through my exact process of filtering a massive spreadsheet—hiding the columns that don't matter (looking at you, "QM Flags") and highlighting the ones that equal profit. We take a serious look at a specific asset in Tyler, Texas. This isn't just looking at numbers; we become digital detectives. We look at the borrower's emotional equity (solar panels and garden gnomes count!), the "Zillow Zombie" values, and even do a Google search that reveals the heartbreaking backstory of why the borrower likely defaulted.We also tackle the difference between chasing "Subject To" deals versus buying the Non-Performing Note. Spoiler alert: You aren't getting a massive discount on a note that is only 90 days late. We run the math on calculating yields, determining legal balances, and deciding when to aim for a re-performing note versus when to accept that a property is headed for foreclosure (like a massive upside-down property we found in Dripping Springs).In this episode, we cover:The Texas Deep Freeze: Why staying off the icy Austin roads is the best investment decision you can make today.The 3,000 Note Breakdown: A recap of the massive tape we analyzed on Saturday and where to find the remaining opportunities.Geographic Breakdown: Mapping out opportunities from the Panhandle to the Valley, including Dallas, Houston, and the Piney Woods.Spreadsheet Mastery: How to filter data efficiently—calculating estimated legal balances, equity percentages, and hiding useless columns.The Tyler, Texas Case Study: A full breakdown of a property with 82% equity, analyzing photos, tax records, and potential 17-19% cash-on-cash returns.The "Human" Element: How a simple Google search revealed a borrower's personal tragedy and how that informs our strategy.Bankruptcy & Foreclosure Plays: Analyzing a deal in Montgomery, TX involving a bankruptcy plan, and a luxury builder home in Dripping Springs that is $200k upside down.Sub2 vs. NPN: Why buying the note makes more sense than a Subject To deal when the borrower is 6+ months behind.Texas Foreclosure Trends: A look at Roddy's List and current numbers in Travis, Bexar, Dallas, and Harris counties.Look, it might be 20 degrees outside, but these yields are keeping us warm. Whether you are looking to get a borrower back on track with a modification or taking a property back in a fast foreclosure state, the opportunity is right there in the data. You just have to know how to filter for it.Make sure you grab the updated spreadsheet from the Basecamp repo (I'll add the formulas so you don't have to do the heavy lifting).

E306: Letting Go of Armor with Special Guest Ryan Windsor   E306 Introduction Hello Basecampers, I hope you are all doing well. Getting back into the swing of things at the start of Season #8....

In this fifth episode of Building MarsBased, Àlex Rodriguez Bacardit reflects on nearly 12 years of operating as a remote-first company since 2014. Inspired by the 37signals philosophy, MarsBased was designed as a "hard remote" entity to optimize for productivity over mere presence, a model that forced the founders to defend their professional authority without a physical office during the early years.To maintain human connection in a distributed team, the company established rituals like Martian Days, quarterly in-person meetings, and Martian Tapas, where team members showcase new skills or tools. A key principle in avoiding "second-class citizens" is ensuring that no major company decisions are made during informal hangouts in Barcelona, keeping the playing field level for everyone regardless of their location.The MarsBased hiring strategy specifically filters for seniors, former entrepreneurs, or freelancers who are exceptional written communicators, as remote environments can feel isolating or "hostile" for those who lack experience in self-management. This professional maturity is supported by a streamlined tech stack, evolving from Basecamp to Linear, and a culture of 100% trust from day one, rather than a system of surveillance.While remoteness brings challenges like the "loneliness slump" around month 12, the company remains 95% faithful to its original 2014 vision. By treating employees like adults and prioritizing quality over quantity, MarsBased continues to thrive as an independent, bootstrapped lifestyle business.Support the show

Rest isn't just a luxury, it is actually commanded by God. But what does "rest" really mean? Is it different than laziness? Should we only do it once we're tired and exhausted?

Bob Schwahn  |  Lead Pastor  |  January 25, 2026 Referenced Scripture: Luke 6:40, Romans 12:2, 1 John 4:19, 1 John 3:16, Luke 19:10 Reflection Questions: 1. Read Matthew 14:22-31
Why do you think Peter got out of the boat? What do you think Peter was thinking? (requires speculation)
(v. 31) Do you think Jesus was questioning Peter because he was doubting Jesus or because he was doubting himself? Explain your thinking. 2. Read Luke 6:40
Following Jesus is becoming like Jesus and imitating his life.
Why is learning about Jesus not enough? Is it possible that we can learn much about Jesus without being transformed by Him? Explain. 3. How can you know if you are being transformed by Jesus? What would be true of your life if Jesus was changing you? How can you see this in yourself and in others? 4. Read Romans 12:2
What things in this world can form us besides Jesus? What things have formed your life besides Jesus? 
How can a person know who or what is forming their life? 5. How can we intentionally be formed by Jesus rather than unintentionally formed by the world around us? 6. Framework of becoming like Jesus… (Triangle)
Imitating His love Relationships:
UP - love for the Father
IN - love for the Family of God
OUT - love for the Broken World In your own word describe how Jesus modeled these.
Which one of these comes most naturally to you?
Which one is the most challenging for you? 7. Why is it important that we are clear with others (and ourselves) what it means to be a follower of Jesus? 8. The invitation is not to be with Jesus when you die…
It's to die with Jesus while you live…
Agree or disagree with this statement? Why? 9. Assignment: 
Choose a gospel and read through it with these questions in mind…
How would I imitate what I see in Jesus in my own life?
What would I need to start doing? Stop doing? Keep doing?
How would my life be different if I took imitating Jesus seriously? What's your next step? Connect: We'd love to connect with you!

Fareed Zakaria is one of the world's leading journalists. Maybe you've seen him on CNN. Maybe you've read his books. Or maybe you've read his articles in the Washington Post. This conversation is a university-level seminar in the craft of writing, which builds upon the thousands of articles Fareed's written over his career. It's a guidepost for anybody who wants to write non-fiction. How do you develop expertise? How should you structure your days? What kinds of deadlines should you set? We also talked about how The Great Gatsby shaped his perspective on America, when to rely on anecdotes vs. data, and the skills that'll remain scarce as AI breaks through the Turing Test and becomes a hyper-competent writer. The through-line of Fareed's work is a philosophy of purposeful practice: watching all his TV performances to see how he can improve, reading great writing to absorb what excellence looks like, and using the deadlines of TV and newspaper columns to write consistently.

Michael Topol, Co-founder and Co-CEO at MGT Insurance, explains why insurance is quietly becoming one of the most interesting data and AI problems in tech.We get practical about turning messy legacy data into usable signals, how agentic tools change decision making, and why culture and team design matter as much as the models.MGT Insurance is building a fully verticalized AI and agentic native insurance company for small businesses, pairing experienced insurance operators with top tier technologists. Michael breaks down what changed in the last few years that makes real disruption possible now, and what modern product delivery looks like when prototyping is cheap and iteration is fast.Key takeaways• Insurance is a data business at its core, but most incumbents cannot use their data fast enough because it lives across silos, mainframes, and old systems.• Modern AI lets teams combine internal data with public signals to speed up underwriting and improve consistency, without losing human judgement.• Vibe coding and rapid prototyping collapse the gap between idea and implementation, bringing product, engineering, and the business closer together.• Senior talent gets more leverage in an AI driven workflow, and small teams can ship faster by focusing on problem solving, not just building.• Pod based teams, fixed outcome planning, and strong culture help regulated companies move quickly while staying inside the rules.Timestamped highlights00:44 What MGT Insurance is, and what “AI and agentic native” means in practice02:09 Why small business insurance matters more than most people realize06:06 The real blocker for incumbents, data exists but it is not usable08:55 Vibe coding in a regulated industry, where it helps first12:54 Requirements are shifting, prototypes bring teams closer to the real problem17:26 The pod structure, plus the Basecamp inspired approach to scoping and shipping20:52 Better, faster, cheaper, why AI finally makes all three possible22:11 Where to connect, and who they are hiringA line you will remember“Insurance is really just a big data problem.”Pro tips you can steal• Build cross functional pods early, include a domain expert, a technical product lead, and a senior engineer from day one.• Scope for outcomes, not perfect specs, then let the team decide the depth as they build.• Use AI to automate collection and synthesis, then keep humans focused on the decisions and trade offs.Call to actionIf you enjoyed this one, follow the show and share it with a builder who is trying to ship faster with a smaller team.

Bob Schwahn  |  Lead Pastor  |  January 18, 2026 Referenced Scripture: Luke 9:23-24, Ephesians 5:25, Mark 1:14-15, James 2:18-19, Revelation 2:1-5 Reflection Questions: Luke 9:23Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. 1) WhoeverWhat were the requirements and pre-qualifications to be a follower of Jesus? Give some examples.What does that say about God that the bar to entry from a cultural perspective was really low? What thoughts might you have had in observing who Jesus chose to be his closest followers? Explain. 2) Wants to be my disciple“Wants” implies it is a choice that we make to follow Jesus or not. Why do you think Jesus would give us a choice and not demand that we love and follow Him? Can love be forced? Explain. 1 John 4:19We love because he first loved us. 3) Must deny themselvesWhat do you think Jesus meant by this? What does this NOT mean? Explain.What has it cost you to follow Jesus? Why is it important to know up front that following Jesus can and will be costly?Is there an area of your life that you find difficult to surrender to Jesus (or an area you find it difficult to follow)? Explain, why? 4) Take up their cross daily and follow me.What did the symbol of the cross mean to a first century person? How is that different from how we view the symbol?Why does that appear to be a “bad marketing” strategy by Jesus? What do you think he was trying to be clear about?How have you experienced humility, suffering, and death as a follower of Jesus?Do you ever experience FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) because you are a follower of Jesus? Explain. Luke 9:24For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it.5) Explain what Jesus is promising in this statement. Have you experienced the reality of this promise? Why or why not?6) How do you need to take up your cross TODAY in order to follow Jesus? Why do we need to do this DAILY?7) What do we do if our heart grows cold, hard, tired, or apathetic? Read Revelation 2:1-58) Why is repentance always the answer when we are off track in following Jesus?9) Being an ALL IN follower of Jesus is about DIRECTION and NOT PERFECTION.What does that statement mean? Agree or disagree? Why? What's your next step? * Connect: We'd love to connect with you!

They talk about borrowing from the past without getting stuck in it, giving new concepts time to catch on, and keeping space for creativity as products evolve.Key Takeaways00:11 – Letting strong ideas travel between products02:49 – Giving each product its own design voice07:26 – Bringing back old features when it makes sense12:03 – Avoiding nostalgia just for the sake of it17:55 – Using real-world use to guide product improvements22:10 – Keeping your creative process flexible23:57 – Leaving space for fun in the design31:13 – Designing around feel instead of rulesLinks and ResourcesNewcity Design magazineSegura Inc.

Welcome to Base Camp, a series about building practical spiritual rhythms that equip us for the journey of faith. Together, we'll explore how transformation happens when we stop being shaped by the world and let God renew our minds. This is not just a resolution for the new year, but a way of letting Jesus shape our lives completely. Along the way we'll unpack some practices that can help us, as well as see why worship is an essential part of this life. Speaker: Greg Holder

L'ANSE AUX MEADOWS AND THE SAGA OF FREYDIS Colleague Martyn Whittock. The guest identifies L'Anse aux Meadows as a temporary base camp for exploration rather than a permanent settlement, scientifically dated to 1021 AD. He describes complex, often violent interactions with indigenous peoples, highlighting the saga account of Freydis, Eric the Red's daughter, who committed murders to secure her authority. NUMBER 3
