David cries out to the LORD for deliverance from his foes as he flees from Absalom. These foes argue theologically against David—how can God be David's Savior if David is having to run away? David takes refuge in the LORD, who is present on His holy hill. The LORD's presence gives protection to David and all the LORD's people. Because salvation is the LORD's, His people are assured of His blessing. Rev. John Bussman, pastor at St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Cullman, AL, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalm 3. To learn more about St. Paul's, visit stpaulscullman.com. Join Sharper Iron this summer to study selected Psalms. In the Psalter, God speaks His Word to us and teaches us how to speak back to Him in prayer. Even in the great variety of the Psalms, each one points us to our Savior, Jesus Christ. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org
Ghislaine Maxwell is exactly where she belongs—behind bars—because the crimes she committed weren't incidental, passive, or peripheral. They were deliberate. She didn't stumble into Epstein's orbit unaware. She didn't get tricked. She was a full-fledged partner in a sprawling operation that targeted vulnerable underage girls, groomed them with false promises, normalized sexual exploitation, and fed them into the hands of predators. She wasn't just “helping Epstein.” She was actively manipulating victims, earning their trust with a polished accent and social charm, only to deliver them into a nightmare. She was the recruiter, the scheduler, the fixer—the architect of access. The jury convicted her not because of public pressure, not because someone needed to be the fall person, but because the evidence proved beyond all doubt that she played a central role in Epstein's machinery of abuse.And no, she's not serving anyone else's sentence. She's serving her own. She isn't the scapegoat—she's the co-conspirator. The myth that she's somehow paying the price for Epstein's clients is a deflection, and a dishonest one. The truth is, she got caught doing exactly what the prosecution accused her of. The client list may still be sealed. The system may have failed to hold others accountable. But that doesn't make Maxwell innocent—it just means the rest of the guilty haven't been brought in yet. Her conviction is not injustice. It's a fraction of justice, and it was earned. She put those girls in harm's way with full knowledge of what would happen. Now she gets to sit in a cage and reflect on every life she helped destroy.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Jesus' previous roles in Micah: Ruler, Shepherd, Peacemaker, Deliverer There's a tone change here from verse 15 through the end of the chapter - God turns his attention back to Israel Chariots + horses represent resources that the people of Israel depended on in the past instead of their God.

Paul Finebaum recently dismissed Ryan Day as anything more than a "good CEO," declaring he's "clueless" and not a top-3 coach. We strongly disagree. In this episode of the Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down why Finebaum's hot take misses the mark — and why Day's success, leadership, and growth place him firmly among college football's elite.

Emergency physicians Resa E. Lewiss and Courtney M. Smalley discuss their article, "Why point-of-care ultrasound belongs in emergency department triage." Amid the crisis of overcrowded waiting rooms and long wait times, they argue for the immediate integration of a powerful, underutilized tool: point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS). Resa and Courtney use compelling clinical examples, like identifying a collapsed lung or a ruptured ectopic pregnancy in under two minutes, to show how POCUS can dramatically improve risk stratification and save lives before a patient even leaves the triage area. They counter potential objections by explaining that emergency physicians are already highly trained in POCUS, the technology fits existing workflows, and it is a billable procedure that can generate revenue. The conversation serves as a direct call to action for hospital leaders to redesign triage spaces and protocols, making POCUS a standard of care to ensure the sickest patients are identified and treated without delay.

When I met my girlfriend, she told me she was divorced from her ex-husband so we could be together. We've been in a committed relationship ever since. A few months ago, she got pregnant, and I supported her through everything until she gave birth last month. Now she's confessed that the baby isn't mine but her ex-husband's, and admitted they've been secretly seeing each other behind my back. I feel completely betrayed, and to know the truth once and for all, I demand a DNA test to confirm the baby's paternity. - Man pleads

What if I told you that nothing you own is actually yours—and that this truth could radically change how you think about money, stress less, and give more? In this episode, we dig into one of the most transformational shifts in our Christian financial journey: moving from ownership to stewardship. This isn't just a spiritual concept—it's the antidote to both the prosperity gospel and the poverty gospel. We break down: Why guilt fades when you realize you're a steward The 3 principles Jesus taught that flip your finances upside-down How estate sales (yes, really) shook us into reevaluating our relationship with stuff Why multiplication is God's agenda, not just accumulation What “assets under management” means—and why it beats calculating net worth The parable of the talents, fast fashion, and what bike shorts taught us about ethics and obedience This one gets real. Real personal, real biblical, and real practical.
For most of human history, scarcity was the enemy. Be it territory, land, wealth, calories, or energy, the majority of conflict and technological innovation was driven by the fact that resources were scarce. With the incredible explosion in scientific knowledge and technological advancement over the last few hundred years, the dynamic has shifted. Scarcity has not vanished across the globe, but in the wealthier and more advanced portions of the world, many of the critical material deficiencies have seen significant relief. The problem that many affluent nations now face is that the artificial solutions they developed to alleviate scarcity have proven just as dangerous as the scarcity itself, if not more dangerous. For most of our history, humans have been selected for their ability to alleviate or survive scarcity. Now they are being selected for their ability to survive the dangers of artificial abundance.

Guest: Casey Woo, CEO & Founder of Operators Guild & FOG VenturesWhat happens when startups are built not by armies of specialists, but by lean teams of senior generalists paired with AI agents?In this episode of SaaS Backwards, we sit down with Casey Woo—CEO and Founder of FOG Ventures and the Operators Guild—to explore how AI is transforming the fundamental structure of companies. According to Woo, the org chart of the future isn't just flatter and faster—it's hybrid, where strategic, multi-discipline humans lead and AI agents handle executional work once done by junior staff.From finance and support to engineering and ops, AI is hollowing out the middle, forcing leaders to become broader, sharper, and more cross-functional. Think “Special Forces” over traditional departments. The operators who thrive will be the ones who can think horizontally, move fast, and execute across domains.Other key insights from the episode include:

A published poet, author of “Novice”, and mom, Nida Sophrasarun talks about how her poetry is influenced by her family on two ends: on one end, it was her family's inability to communicate emotions that lead her to finding her voice in poetry. On the other end, the birth of her son lead her to finding herself again through writing. Nida talks about her Thai mom Kobkua, “a tiger”, as Nida describes her, from whom Nida learned important lessons, in spite of their challenging relationship. Nida talks about showing love and connecting through food; about the solace of mysticism; about finding her unique voice; and understanding what really belongs to us - and what is just an illusion. Nida also read her poem "Starling" for us. To order Nida's book of poems "Novice", go here. You can read Nida's beautiful poem Violent Femmes here.

In this episode, Amanda Finch, Chief Executive Officer of the Chartered Institute of Information Security, offers a perspective shaped by decades of experience in a field she has grown with and helped shape. She shares how cybersecurity has transformed from an obscure technical pursuit into a formalized profession with recognized pathways, development programs, and charters. Her focus is clear: we need to support individuals and organizations at every level to ensure cybersecurity is inclusive, sustainable, and effective.Amanda outlines how the Chartered Institute has developed a structured framework to support cybersecurity careers from entry-level to fellowship. Programs such as the Associate Development Program and the Full Membership Development Program help individuals grow into leadership roles, especially those who come from technical backgrounds and must now influence strategy, policy, and people. She emphasizes that supporting this journey isn't just about skills—it's about building confidence and community.A significant part of the conversation centers on representation and diversity. Amanda speaks candidly about being one of the only women in the room early in her career and acknowledges the progress made, but she also highlights the structural issues still holding many back. From the branding of cybersecurity as overly technical, to the inaccessibility of school programs for under-resourced communities, the industry has work to do. She argues for a wider understanding of the skills needed in cybersecurity—communication, analysis, problem-solving—not just coding or technical specialization.Amanda also addresses the growing threat to small and medium-sized businesses. While large organizations may have teams and resources to manage security, smaller businesses face the same threats without the same support. She calls for a renewed emphasis on community-based solutions—knowledge sharing, mentorship, and collaborative platforms—that extend the reach of cyber defense to those with fewer resources.In closing, Amanda urges us not to forget the enduring principles of security—know what you're protecting, understand the consequences if it fails, and use foundational practices to stay grounded even when new technologies like AI and deepfakes arrive. And just as importantly, she reminds us that human principles—trust, empathy, responsibility—are vital tools in facing cybersecurity's biggest challenges.___________Guest: Amanda Finch, CEO of the Chartered Institute of Information Security | https://www.linkedin.com/in/amanda-finch-fciis-b1b1951/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.com___________Episode SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974___________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Infosecurity Europe 2025 London coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/infosec25Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?
