*** Content warning: Child sexual abuse ***Late in 1991, a child said something strange to his mother: ‘I don't like Peter's black penis.' Believing this was an indication that her son was being abused by Peter Ellis, a 33-year-old employee at the Christchurch Civic Creche her son attended, the concerned mother quickly filed a report. The case would soon snowball into one of New Zealand's biggest and most controversial criminal cases…---Narration – Anonymous HostResearch & writing – Erin MunroProduction & music – Mike MigasAudio editing – Anthony TelferSign up for Casefile Premium:Apple PremiumSpotify PremiumPatreonFor all credits and sources, please visit https://casefilepodcast.com/case-341-the-christchurch-civic-creche Hosted on Acast.

The Sandown Clown | Paranormal Podcast This episode we dove into one of the strangest and most uniquely bizarre encounters in UK paranormal history, the Sandown Clown, where in May of 1973, two children on the Isle of Wight followed an unsettling wailing sound across a golf course and a marsh, only to find a seven-foot-tall, no-neck, bone-white, three-fingered entity in a yellow pointed hat living under a bridge who dropped a book in a creek, gave them a wave, and then invited them inside his metal shed for what ended up being a very long and surprisingly cordial conversation. We went through every possible theory for what Sam could have been — a very method-acting, very high Ringo Starr filming a movie nearby, an alien scout afraid of humans who found children to be the least threatening study subjects, and Charlie's personal favorite, a Fae entity operating by his own bizarre logic in a liminal space between dimensions, which explains the bridge, the enchantment, the mechanical speech, and why the child just was not scared at all.

In this episode, Heather sits down with longtime Elevate member Susie Inverso of Crimson Cat Studios to unpack a sales conversation that didn't go quite as expected. What started as a discussion about pricing an end-of-life pet session quickly revealed something deeper: the assumptions we make about our clients' finances, decisions, and ability to invest. Together, they explore how those hidden thoughts can affect confidence, communication, and ultimately, sales. Key Takeaways: Don't spend your clients' money for them. Assuming what someone can or can't afford often sabotages the sales conversation before it begins. Your thoughts affect how you communicate. Hesitation, uncertainty, and assumptions are often felt by the client, even when unspoken. Clients are capable of making their own decisions. Your job is to present the options clearly—not decide what's best for their budget. Disappointment is part of business. Trying to avoid it often creates more stress than simply allowing it. Self-trust creates confidence. Believing you can handle any outcome changes the energy of every conversation. Not every "no" is permanent. Sometimes it's a timing issue, not a rejection. The timeline is often different than you expect. People may need time to think, process, and make decisions. You become unstoppable when you're willing to feel anything. Fear of disappointment, rejection, or failure loses its power when you stop avoiding those emotions. Hope is more useful than control. A flexible thought like "I might be surprised later" creates openness and possibility. Everything doesn't have to happen today. Sometimes the best thing you can do is trust the process and keep moving forward. How many sales have you lost because you decided for your client before they decided for themselves? What if the thing holding you back isn't pricing—but the story you're telling about money? This conversation reveals a subtle mindset trap that almost every photographer falls into. Press play and discover the thought that changed everything. How to Support the Podcast: Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes or wherever you listen to podcasts. Please like, share, and leave a review.

This week's episode is a little different. There is no guest joining me behind the microphone tonight. Instead, I wanted to take a few minutes to reflect on something I've been thinking about as Sexual Assault Survivor Stories approaches two hundred episodes. Over the past four years, I've had the extraordinary privilege of speaking with survivors, advocates, counselors, researchers, physicians, attorneys, investigators, and educators from around the world. Together, we've explored some of the most difficult realities a human being can endure. Yet when I look back across all those conversations, what remains with me most vividly is not the trauma itself. It's the people. In this short, personal episode, I share some thoughts about resilience, human dignity, and the remarkable capacity people possess to move forward after profound suffering. I also reflect on the countless professionals and advocates who quietly dedicate their lives to helping others heal, and on the listeners who continue to make this community possible. If you've ever wondered what nearly two hundred conversations about trauma, recovery, and hope have taught me, this episode is my attempt to answer that question. An important side note: if you're finding value in this show and these conversations, please consider leaving a 5-star rating on your podcast platform—it truly helps more people find these stories. You can also follow Sexual Assault Survivor Stories on Instagram and send me a note of support. I can't tell you how much your emails mean to me—they fuel my passion to keep this podcast going. And if you're a victim or survivor and you feel like you might be ready to share your story—whether for your own healing or to help someone else—reach out to me. We can start a conversation, with no pressure and no expectations. You can email me directly at dave@sasstories.com. Please include a phone number where I can reach you, because I genuinely prefer to talk with people who are considering guesting. Thank you to everyone who has already reached out—and please keep those emails coming. I truly look forward to hearing from you.

The traditional image of leadership is built around the hero. When problems emerge, the leader steps in. If uncertainty appears, the leader provides answers. Finally, as pressure increases, the leader shields the team. According to leadership coach Daria Rudnik, that model is becoming increasingly ineffective. In a world shaped by constant disruption, Facilitative Leadership is replacing heroic leadership as the capability organizations need most. About Daria Rudnik Daria Rudnik helps overloaded leaders build self-sufficient teams in an AI-driven world. Through her proprietary CLICK Framework, she works with fast-growing technology and finance organizations to improve team ownership, decision-making, knowledge sharing, and adaptability. Daria is the author of CLICKING (International Impact Book Awards – Leadership Category), co-author of The AI Revolution, and founder of Aidra.ai, an AI coaching platform designed to scale leadership development.
Don Malarcik might finally uncover how Cybercheck works, as its creator Adam Mosher travels to Ohio to demonstrate the software to Don's legal team and independent experts. While parts of the program appear functional, its core AI remains hidden, and Mosher refuses to provide full access or explain how it reaches conclusions that place suspects at crime scenes. His answers raise concerns about bias, and when he claims Cybercheck was peer-reviewed by a Canadian university, Don discovers the university denies any involvement. Believing this proves Mosher misled the court, Don prepares for a decisive hearing that could determine whether Cybercheck is legitimate evidence—or junk science.Binge all 9 episodes of this season on our YouTube page, or get them ad-free on CBC True Crime Premium on Apple Podcasts.A listener's guide to Uncover: Where to go next

Believing in what you sell is one thing. Asking someone to pay for it is another. When it's time to talk price, follow up, or close the deal, everything starts to feel awkward. So you wing it, avoid the hard questions, and hope the customer decides on their own. But hope is not a sales strategy. What if selling could feel less like pressure and more like helping someone cross the finish line? In this week's episode, Donald Miller talks with Jonny Holsten, CEO of Bridge Selling and author of Fix Your Broken Sales Calls. Jonny explains why so many sales conversations fall apart and shows you how to guide buyers through a simple "bridge" from pain to purchase. You'll learn how to ask better questions, qualify without sounding rude, present the right solution, and close the sale without the cringe factor. Listen in to learn how to make sales feel clear, helpful, and a lot less awkward.

Bizarre News | Paranormal Podcast This month's Bizarre News has us covering four stories that somehow all ended up connecting — starting with renowned physicist Michio Kaku going on Diary of a CEO and laying out his case that alien life almost certainly exists, UAPs are real but we're still at Close Encounters of the First Kind, and if they wanted us gone we'd already be gone, which is either very reassuring or something we're choosing not to think too hard about. Then we got into a longtime CIA-connected UFO researcher claiming the US government has bodies from four different alien species including Grays, Nordics, Reptilians, and Insectoids, followed by creepy security footage from an oil field in Argentina where workers have been reporting screaming in the night and a traffic cone that very confidently moved itself while nobody was around — local folklore pointing to a duende, a mischievous goblin. We wrapped up with a woman named Kathy McDaniel who had a near-death experience and instead of the peaceful light and deceased relatives everybody talks about, found herself surrounded by fog, shrieking, and a booming voice asking her if she knew where she was.
The pasuk says in Tehillim, בְּךָ בָטְחוּ וְלֹא בוֹשׁוּ — "They trusted in You and were not ashamed." Simply understood, this means that our ancestors would speak about the greatness of Hashem and about His ability to save them in every situation. Then, when they needed salvation, they placed their trust in Him and He came through for them. They were never embarrassed for having trusted in Hashem. But what happens if a person truly believes in the power of Hashem, speaks about it openly, strengthens himself with bitachon, and yet does not receive the salvation he hoped for? Does that mean he was "ashamed" because of his bitachon? Rabbi David Sutton explained this pasuk with a powerful story that took place in Eretz Yisrael. A young child, only three years old, was diagnosed with a terrible illness. The doctors treated him, and for a while the child went into remission. But eventually the illness returned, and when the boy was five years old it became extremely aggressive. The doctors finally told the mother that, unfortunately, there was no longer any hope of saving the child. The mother answered firmly, "As religious Jews, we never say there is no hope. Hashem can do anything. I believe my son can still be healed." From that point on, she spent her days in the hospital saying Tehillim and strengthening herself with emunah and bitachon. The secular doctors repeatedly told her not to waste her time. "There is zero percent chance of survival," they insisted. But every day she sat there with Tehillim in her hands, believing that Hashem could still perform a miracle. Eventually, however, the child's condition deteriorated further and it became clear that the end was near. The mother even purchased a burial plot and began making arrangements for what seemed inevitable. But there was one thing that deeply troubled her, and she called her Rebbetzin to discuss it. "I had so much emunah," she cried. "When the doctors told me there was no hope, it did not shake me. I believed completely that Hashem could save my son. But now, when my son passes away, the doctors are going to say, 'You see? We told you so. Your hope was unrealistic.' I can accept that Hashem wants my son back, but I do not want to be ashamed because of my bitachon in Him." The Rebbetzin answered her with tremendous wisdom. "Every moment that you hoped to Hashem for salvation was a mitzvah," she said. "Believing in Hashem's ability to help is a great mitzvah, and you fulfilled it on the highest level. Now you have another mitzvah — to accept the will of Hashem with emunah. If you continue doing what Hashem wants from you, you will never be ashamed from it." These words gave the mother tremendous strength. The next day, the child passed away. The doctors were certain this woman would collapse emotionally after everything she had gone through. They brought in professionals who deal with trauma and psychologists who treat severe depression. But when they spoke to her, they were astonished. She was calm, composed, and spiritually strong. She did not appear broken in the way they expected. The doctors asked her, "How are you so strong after such a painful disappointment?" She answered, "Until now, I had a mitzvah to hope to Hashem, and I tried to do that with all my strength. Now I have a mitzvah to accept the will of Hashem, and I will try to do that with all my strength as well." The doctors were overwhelmed by her words. They began crying from the strength and sincerity of her emunah. Later, the mother said, "My Rebbetzin was right. I was not ashamed because of my bitachon. On the contrary, my bitachon brought even more honor to Hashem." This is the meaning of בְּךָ בָטְחוּ וְלֹא בוֹשׁוּ . A person who places his trust in Hashem is never truly ashamed. Sometimes the salvation comes exactly as he hoped. Sometimes Hashem's plan is different. But if a person does what Hashem wants from him at every stage — first hoping, praying, and believing, and afterward accepting Hashem's will with love — then nothing negative ever comes from his bitachon. Instead, it always brings honor to Hashem's Name.
"Many summer tours are having to scale back or cancel altogether. The nickname given to this practice is Blue Dot Fever. It is named after the blue dots that appear on unsold seats when a ticket buyer uses Ticketmaster. It has become indicative of a larger societal and financial concern that is leading to people not being able to attend live music. We will explain."
Before we get started, I want to extend my sincere gratitude to The Network Studios in Culver City for making this week's episode recording possible. From the ease of scheduling to their outstanding facilities and podcast production expertise, the entire experience was exceptional. A special thank you goes to studio owner Kenyon, whose generosity, kindness, hospitality, and willingness to help made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. For more information or to schedule a session when you're in the Southern California area, contact TNS at the URL below. For years, Lee Cooper and I have spoken across an ocean. We've recorded podcast episodes together, exchanged messages, supported one another's work, and watched each other's journeys unfold from opposite sides of the world. This week, that changed. After years of conversations through microphones and computer screens, Lee and I finally sat down together in the same room to record this episode from Southern California. Longtime listeners may remember Lee from previous appearances on the podcast, where he courageously shared his experience of surviving childhood sexual abuse and spoke openly about the challenges, setbacks, and victories that accompanied his healing journey. He later returned to introduce Victorious Voices, a survivor community he created to help people impacted by sexual trauma find connection, understanding, and support. Since then, that vision has continued to expand. What began as one survivor's decision to break his silence has grown into an international movement that brings survivors together through community, advocacy, conversation, creativity, and shared understanding. Lee is also an extraordinarily talented photographer whose work has been exhibited internationally. Through the Victorious Voices Portrait Project, survivors are invited to step in front of the camera and reclaim ownership of how they are seen. The portraits are not about victimization. They are about humanity, dignity, resilience, courage, and hope. During Lee's recent visit to Southern California, he invited me to participate in the project myself. It was a tremendous honor and a deeply meaningful experience that made this conversation even more special. This episode is about much more than photography. It's about friendship, healing, purpose, and what becomes possible when survivors refuse to remain invisible. Lee's work continues to challenge silence while creating spaces where people can be seen, heard, believed, and supported. If you've ever wondered how one person's decision to tell the truth can grow into something that impacts lives around the world, I think you'll find this conversation both powerful and unforgettable.

The Haunted Porcelain Doll | Paranormal Podcast In this episode, we've got two listener submissions that both somehow involve grandmothers handing their family members something terrifying and then acting totally unbothered about it. The first, 16-year-old Lindsay staying alone with her grieving great-grandma, grabbing a fireplace poker after hearing phantom footsteps from a kitchen that should have been empty, and then walking into the living room to find a tall black cloaked figure with beady inhuman eyes sitting completely still in her late great-grandfather's chair. Then we got into Samantha's year-and-a-half ordeal with a Victorian porcelain doll her grandmother gave her for her birthday that started turning itself on the shelf, relocated from her bedroom to her bed while she was at school, gave her nightmares bad enough that she dreaded going to sleep, and eventually made a sound like porcelain scratching against the wall at 2am while she watched its head slowly turn toward her.

The episode recounts how GitGuardian security researcher Guillaume Valadon, while monitoring public GitHub for leaked secrets, discovered a publicly accessible repository labeled "CISA-Private" containing highly sensitive CISA materials, including internal DHS/CISA credentials, cloud keys, tokens, plaintext passwords, logs, and files such as "Important AWS Tokens" and a CSV listing usernames and passwords for internal systems. Believing a contractor likely used GitHub to move work from a work device to a home device, Valadon escalated via responsible disclosure to CERT, then involved journalist Brian Krebs to reach CISA faster when the repo remained public. After additional outreach, the repository was made inaccessible within about a day, and Valadon praises CISA's response speed. The discussion emphasizes widespread poor secret hygiene, governance, training, and the need for organizations to monitor, rehearse, and automate detection and revocation of leaked secrets.

Terrified Together with Scaroline | Paranormal Podcast We teamed up with Scaroline for this Terrified Together — she streams from the Underworld, keeps a collection of genuinely haunted dolls including one named Coco that she communicates with through a custom doll phone, and she fit in immediately. So naturally, we got into three listener submissions ranging from a 12-year-old and his dad spotting a flying saucer outside Boston to a seven-year-old in Arizona who woke up sick in her parents' bed and locked eyes with a smirking, reptilian, dinosaur-like demon holding a severed head at the top of the stairs. We also covered Q's two-part story: first as a kid in Pennsylvania where he and his brothers heard something stomping up from the basement in a power-outage blizzard, jiggling the handle, and crashing back down the stairs, and then years later in San Antonio where a recurring nightmare kept pulling him deeper each time he fell back asleep until he came face to face with something that said help in a way that felt anything but innocent.

Mason Ellis sits down to share his journey from Huntsville, Alabama to Penn State Wrestling — from starting the sport at 8 years old, winning his first state title, learning from key mentors, and choosing Penn State because of its championship culture, brotherhood, and legendary coaching staff.In this interview, Mason talks about growing up in Alabama, following in his father's footsteps as a state champion, the mentors who helped him believe he could wrestle at the college level, and what Penn State fans can expect every time he steps on the mat.He also explains why Penn State felt like home, what makes the Nittany Lion wrestling culture special, and how he wants to be remembered — not just as a wrestler, but as a leader who gave 110%.Chapters:0:00 Meet Mason Ellis0:15 Starting wrestling at 8 years old0:30 His first wrestling medal0:42 Winning his first state title0:53 Following his father's Alabama wrestling legacy1:36 Realizing he could wrestle in college1:55 Believing he could become a national champion2:00 Why Penn State felt like home2:45 What fans can expect on the mat2:57 Focusing on the processFOLLOW STATE MEDIA HERE:► TWITTER | https://twitter.com/StateMediaPSU► TIKTOK | https://www.tiktok.com/@statemediapsu► INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/statemediapsu/► YOUTUBE | https://www.youtube.com/@StateMediaPSU?sub_confirmation=1► FACEBOOK | https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61558183472272#MasonEllis #PennStateWrestling #NCAAWrestling

At what point does believing in someone's potential stop being leadership and start being a liability? In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill answer three listener questions about one of the hardest tensions in leadership: the gap between what you see in your people and what they actually deliver. They walk through how to handle a high-talent, low-output team member, how to recognize when a long-tenured leader has plateaued, and whether the popular idea of "unlimited potential" actually holds up. Believing in your team is valuable, but does it replace standards and results? Here's what you'll learn: Why potential without performance becomes a liability, and how to set objective criteria before emotion drives the decision How to know when a team member has hit their ceiling and what to do about it without losing empathy Why "unlimited potential" is a myth, and what a leader can actually be responsible for You can want it for them all day long.

In this Bible Story, we witness the triumph of David over the Syrians and Ammonites. He claims victory after victory in battle, and brings Israel into a place of peace with many surrounding nations. This story is inspired by 2 Samuel 10 & 1 Chronicles 19-20. Go to https://www.BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is 2 Samuel 10:12 from the King James Version.Episode 101: David's friend Nahash, king of the Ammonites had died, and his son Hanun took his place. David, wishing to show compassion to Hanun, sent him some servants with gifts to mourn the loss of his father. But Hanun's servants were evil and spoke lies about David's servants in his ears. Believing these lies Hanun shaved the servants, shamed them, and sent them away. This led to a ferocious battle between David and the Ammonites. Many lives were needlessly lost because of the lies Hanun believed.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1927DM There's a name for that feeling that saving money is pointless. Haley Sacks, a.k.a. Mrs. Dow Jones, calls it financial nihilism. It's when you've counted yourself out so completely that you stop planning for the future and start flexing for the present. She lived it. Designer bag on one hand, past-due rent on the other. The wake-up wasn't a book or a seminar. It was staring at a Louis Vuitton bag she bought on eBay and realizing it was a mask. Something to signal "I'm fine" when she wasn't. Billionaires wear sweatpants because they don't need to prove anything. That contrast says everything. $200 a month at 25 turns into $700,000 by your sixties. The math works. The only thing stopping most people is believing it won't matter. Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

On paper, seceding is as easy as just quitting, but the real difficulty is keeping the secession going. Led by the "pious" Duke Severus XIII, this splinter faction has held itself together in a dangerous area of space. Believing the Periphery sub-sector was his by right, the Duke orchestrated fake supply shortages to force his citizens into desperate rebellion.To maintain his grip, the Duke formed dark pacts with a desperate Drukhari kabal known as the Children of Thorns. Throw in an unexpected Ork invasion from Waaagh! Grimtoof, and you have the recipe for the only definitively successful secessionist group in 40K history.Support the show
Today we're continuing our series on doubt. We're in part three of five. Because there's so much easy access to information and ideas today, we can take in a huge amount of stuff. The downside is that much of it is just noise, and a lot of it simply isn't true. What we hear, even if it sounds good, is not always good for us, especially when we're talking about spiritual doubt. There are many opinions floating around out there on the subject. For instance, some will say that doubt is really something to wrestle with continually, never finding a satisfying answer. While at the other end of the spectrum, some will say that if you doubt, you are permanently cut off from God. Both of those extremes are not helpful at all.The Bible is clear that God gives us a choice whether to believe in Him or not. John 1:12 says, “Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.” Within each person is a longing to understand our place in the world and to know if there is something or someone beyond this life. The Bible says that “He has set eternity in our hearts,” that “curiosity is in all of us.” And if you're wondering about God, then your curiosity is a good starting point. A bedrock truth for Christians is that God sent Jesus in human form to atone for the sins of mankind. This is not an easy concept to grasp honestly, but it's what is known as the Gospel, the foundation of our faith.Christianity's exclusive claims are too much for some seekers. In Mark chapter 10, the Bible describes a wealthy young man who asked Jesus what he had to do to be saved, and Jesus replied that besides following the 10 Commandments, he should give his money to the poor, and the story ends with that man sadly walking away. It's likely that Jesus was helping him to see that his heart was not yet ready to receive anything that would require any sacrifice on his part. In Luke 9:23, Jesus says, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.” Believing in the true God is not a bed of roses, but if you can make the search for God your starting point, you'll likely find what you're looking for. Let's pray. Father, you've given us the knowledge of saving faith in your word. Thank you for giving us a free choice to decide our path in life. In Jesus' name, amen.

The Pale Yellow Man | Paranormal Podcast We've got three listener submissions this episode, starting with a 13-year-old cleaning a warehouse where Bay 4 carried a heavy, wrong feeling from day one — complete with disembodied clicking sounds that circled the room like a predator, shadow legs with no body, and one final crash in the dark that sent them sprinting out and never coming back. Then we headed to England, where a guy waiting for his early morning Uber caught something pitch black sprint across his kitchen doorway at an impossible speed, and turned to find the straps of his work bag swinging violently on their own with nothing nearby to explain it. And the last one comes from a listener in Paradise, California, who woke one night to a tall, impossibly thin figure in her doorway with jaundice-yellow skin stretched tight over sharp cheekbones, hollow black eyes, and eventually heard it creak down toward her ear and chuckle before everything went black...

In the conclusion of this conference talk, Gary discusses the worldview implications of eschatology and why they're so important. Believing something is one thing, but acting on that belief has daily consequences. Morality, ethics, education, and social action all stem from a person's ultimate commitment to their beliefs about the future.
In this episode, we switch things up and ask each other questions we have not prepared for ahead of time. The conversation ranges from relationships and personal growth to funny hypotheticals and deeper reflections on marriage, identity, and what we value most. We talk about the importance of empathy, believing you are worthy of the life you want, and appreciating the small moments that often matter the most. This episode is a mix of humor, honesty, and real conversation about life and relationships.We talk about:-Believing you are worthy-Having empathy in relationships-What we love most about each other-Living what you teach-Appreciating small moments and memories-Lessons learned from past relationships-Choosing what is right over what is popular-Pride, growth, and partnership in marriageTime Stamps: 0:00 Introduction1:07 what causes you to yo-yo diet4:50 Kait's most likely crime6:31 biggest personal challenges8:01 learning from relationships20:47 surprises about Maverick22:59 surprises about Kait27:50 pursuing what is right over what's popular31:20 biggest role models32:34 what would you change about your spouse?35:14 pride in your marriage42:12 best memories or marriage CONNECT WITH KAIT & MAV:Get 1:1 coaching here: https://go.elev8coaching.net/weight-loss-journeyGet our weekly emails: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-listEbook: https://go.elev8coaching.net/consistency-book Hosted on Acast.

FDR seeks to modify the Neutrality Acts to provide aid to the Allies, sparking a fierce debate with Lindbergh and non-interventionist senators. These critics deeply distrust Roosevelt, believing he is incrementally leading the nation toward war through deceptive policy shifts. FDR counters by labeling his opponents "ignorant" and "isolationist," while carefully shaping public opinion to avoid the political backlash faced by Woodrow Wilson. The rapid fall of France in 1940 reinforces Lindbergh's warnings, yet it also prompts FDR to initiate the destroyers-for-bases deal with Winston Churchill. This transaction effectively signals the end of true American neutrality. (3/8)1936

Just weeks before a fatal car accident claimed the lives of his grandparents in 1985, Matthew's grandmother began having a disturbing recurring dream. Night after night, she described the same violent crash involving a gray pickup truck, a rollover accident, and a family member dying inside the vehicle.The dreams became so vivid and persistent that they started frightening the entire family. Believing the dreams were warnings about her daughter, Matthew's grandmother repeatedly begged relatives to drive carefully and tried desperately to prevent the tragedy she believed was coming.But when the accident finally happened on a quiet September afternoon in rural Ontario, the details unfolded almost exactly as she had described them for weeks.Only afterward did the family begin to wonder if she had unknowingly been seeing her own death the entire time. #RealGhostStories #Premonition #ParanormalExperience #PropheticDream #TrueGhostStory #SupernaturalEncounter #UnexplainedMystery #ParanormalPodcast #Precognition #GhostStoriesLove real ghost stories?

In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Joshua 1–8; 23–24 and step into the long awaited moment when the children of Israel finally enter the promised land after years of wandering in the wilderness. As Joshua takes Moses' place, the Lord repeats the same invitation again and again: “Be strong and of a good courage.” These chapters become a reminder that faith often means stepping forward before the miracle happens. From crossing the Jordan River on dry ground, to carrying stones of remembrance, to walking around the walls of Jericho day after day, the people are invited to trust a God who keeps His promises even when the outcome cannot yet be seen. This episode highlights what it looks like to live in the realm of miracles. Dave and Grace explore the courage to follow God into unfamiliar places, the importance of remembering His goodness, and the power of believing before the walls fall. The story of Rahab becomes a beautiful witness that faith can change everything, and that God delights in rescuing, welcoming, and redeeming every person who chooses to believe. This episode invites us to look at our own life and ask where God may already be moving. Because sometimes faith looks like stepping into the water before it parts, walking around the walls one more time, or building reminders of the miracles we never want to forget. And through every chapter, Joshua reminds us that the God who led His people before is still the God who leads us now.
