Navigating Pressure What if the pressure you’re experiencing isn’t there to break you… but to reveal what God is building in you? In the opening message of our Family Month series, we explore James 1:2-4 and discover that pressure doesn’t create our character. It reveals it. James challenges us to see life’s unexpected trials through a different lens, not as interruptions to avoid, but as opportunities God uses to shape us into people who are mature, steadfast, and complete. Whether you’re navigating family stress, difficult relationships, uncertainty, or unexpected hardship, this message will encourage you to stop asking, “How do I get out of this?” and begin asking, “What is God producing in me?” James 1:2-4 Discussion topics HEAD – What did Jesus say to you through the Word? The sermon pointed out that James assumes pressure is coming (“when,” not “if”). Why do you think we often act surprised when life gets difficult? One of the key ideas from Sunday was: Pressure doesn’t create what’s in you. It reveals what’s been built in you. How does that change the way you think about difficult situations? James says God uses pressure to produce perseverance, maturity, and completeness. Which of those words stands out to you most? Why? HEART – How did it make you feel? When pressure shows up in your life, what usually comes out first? Anger? Anxiety? Control? Withdrawal? Blame? Humor? Prayer? Something else?  How has that worked so far in your life? Can you think of a recent situation where pressure revealed something in you that surprised you? HANDS – What are you going to do with it? Which step of P.A.U.S.E. do you think will be the hardest for you this week? What situation do you already know you’ll probably face this week where you’ll need to practice it? Who in this group can help keep you accountable? Family Month Check-In Did anyone use the Family Take-Home Kit this week? What was the funniest or most memorable part? What conversation happened at home because of it? Did your kids teach you anything from Sunday’s lesson? Check out our other audio series and video playlists that can help you find Jesus in every moment and then discover what’s next

  https://x.com/atensnut/status/2080753668672946371 Speaking of MN, let's jump to today's news for just a bit. Would it surprise you to learn that ILHAN OMAR's Sister has been implicated in the FEED THE FUTURE Scandal and Fraud. Crime seems to run in this family. DEPORT the whole damn bunch of them. We learned recently that China absolutely helped cheat Joe Biden into office in 2020 and President Trump used the WHCA dinner to drive home that point, and trolled them about his re-election in 2028. In humor, there is truth. That very same media gave out awards at the event to NY Times journalists for a story that got their paper sued. What else is on tap for today? It's a two-ton lift, because the skullduggery of the Left doesn't rest. We have fraud, DEI backfires, Mamdani shenanigans, and much more. So stick around… For years, Americans have watched a curious political magic trick: every problem Democrats experienced somehow became proof that Republicans were the real problem. Inflation? Blame corporate greed. Crime? Blame society. Election concerns? Blame misinformation. Political division? Blame anyone who did not vote correctly. That is why the recent public fighting inside the Democratic Party is so fascinating. The media, which has spent years polishing Democratic problems until they looked like minor imperfections on a showroom floor, is finally acknowledging something many voters have already noticed: the Democratic Party is experiencing a serious internal fracture. The latest episode involves House Democrats demanding accountability after the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee spent more than $500,000 supporting a candidate in an Arizona primary who ultimately lost. The complaint from some Democrats is simple: why are party resources being spent fighting other Democrats instead of defeating Republicans? That question sounds almost quaint coming from a party that spent years lecturing Republicans about unity. Republicans know this movie. They have watched it before. Kevin Jackson has been called, the "white-collar" Joe Rogan. Given their similar backgrounds in TV, comedy, and martial arts, it's easy to see why people enjoy Kevin's show so much.

Janice Fiamengo, one of the GOATs of the MRM, recently appeared on another podcast with a psychologist Laura How discussing the harms done by feminism and some folks aren't happy. Namely the feminist channel named Feminist Cat Lady Spinster. Who would have thought she would take issue with this?

The teenager who killed four people at Apalachee High School was sentenced to life without parole Tuesday, days after he pleaded guilty to all 55 charges against him. His father who gave the teen the assault-style rifle used in that mass shooting was sentenced to 15 years in prison. In March, 55-year-old was convicted of multiple charges including second-degree murder, a first for a parent of a school shooter. Plus, two Democratic candidates will face off next month in a special runoff election to serve Georgia’s 13th Congressional District to finish the term of the late Congressman David Scott. And Georgia businesses are preparing to weather another potential round of tariffs, this time on Canada. Also, a new action plan for Georgia’s coastal salt marsh calls for not just protecting the existing marsh but also giving it room to migrate. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The WIP Morning Team reacts to the news from yesterday of the Philadelphia Eagles making 4th year starter Jalen Carter the highest paid defensive tackle in NFL history. Both Joe and Jon express their surprise at the timing of the deal on day one of training camp and the number that they ended up settling on after some injury and character concerns emerged this past season. They also get into another embarrassing loss for the Phillies at the hands of the struggling Miami Marlins last night that looks to be kicking off another slump for Don Mattingly's squad.

In Hour 2, Willard and Dibs discuss Draymond Green's new contract with the Golden State Warriors: a one-year, $27.7 million deal. Green expectedly re-signs with the Warriors after opting out of the exact same contract in an effort to sacrifice some money so the team could sign LeBron James in free agency. They're also joined by 49ers beat writer for The Athletic Matt Barrows to discuss Kyle Shanahan's car crash and the beginning of training camp. 

Who deserves the blame for Kamala Harris' 2024 presidential election loss?Longtime South Carolina Democratic Congressman James Clyburn is stirring debate after appearing on Vox's America, Actually podcast and agreeing with the argument that Black voters let Kamala Harris down in the 2024 election.But is that a fair assessment?On this episode of The Arrington Gavin Show, we examine Clyburn's comments and the bigger conversation surrounding Black voters and the Democratic Party.

It was a packed edition of The Nick Wize Show as Nick breaks down every angle of the Vita Vea trade saga, makes the case that Vita deserves the most blame, and lets Buccaneers fans have their say through a flood of passionate calls and texts. Fresh off a trip to Training Camp, Nick shares exclusive observations, a crazy personal story from One Buccaneer Place, and reacts to Todd Bowles' comments on Vita Vea, Mike Evans, and Baker Mayfield before he and Producer Tim separate fact from fiction during Overreaction or Reality. To close the show, Nick dives into the latest Rays stadium controversy sparked by Bill Carlson's comments and weighs in on Tony Romo's widely discussed bodycam footage, ending another entertaining afternoon with insight, laughs, and plenty of Tampa Bay sports conversation.

Nick Wize opens the show by diving headfirst into the biggest story in Tampa Bay sports: Vita Vea's trade request. Is the blame on Vita himself, Todd Bowles, the Buccaneers front office, ownership, or even Ndamukong Suh? Nick breaks down every angle before explaining why he believes the biggest responsibility falls on the All-Pro defensive tackle himself.

Savage argues that civilizations rise and fall, using examples such as Marquesan war clubs and ancient Greek coins to frame his view that the West is declining because of immigration, liberalism, and the growth of socialism and communism. He fears that the reign of Zohran Mamdani in New York City could be a sign of a looming threat nationally. He discusses Jean Raspail's novel "The Camp of the Saints", interpreting it as a portrayal of Western "spiritual self-hatred" leading to societal collapse. Savage then warns about Democratic Socialists and revisits themes including border security and radical Islam from his 2005 book "Liberalism Is a Mental Disorder." He concludes by discussing his new venture The Healing Wheel Society (healingwheel.org) as a way to reduce religious conflict, encouraging people to practice the religion of their grandparents.   Go to GetSavageGold.com or call (855) GOLD-099.

The Ken Carman Show with Anthony Lima explores who is to blame for this disappointment.

The fallout and reaction to Cavs legend LeBron James choosing to signing with the Philadelphia 76ers continued for the hosts of 92.3 The Fan on Monday. The Ken Carman Show with Anthony Lima explores who is to blame for this disappointment. Baskin & Phelps wonder whether it was Philly all along for LeBron, and the guys from The Afternoon Drive ask whether Cavs fans are beginning to turn on LeBron after he snubbed them for a third time in his career.

Lima explains the seemingly contradictory stance that he doesn't blame LeBron for leaving but will boo him anyway, since LeBron is now trying to win a championship at the Cavs' expense in the same conference. He and Daryl Ruiter also air frustration over people in LeBron's camp allegedly toying with fans and manipulating prediction markets during the speculation. The conversation pivots into Cavs roster talk, with Ruiter making a strong case for pursuing Jonathan Kuminga as a needed athletic upgrade over Dean Wade, while crediting James Harden for delaying his extension to give Koby Altman cap flexibility.

Danny Cunningham joins the show and argues the Cavs share real blame for LeBron picking Philadelphia, since Cleveland never matched Miami's Giannis addition or Philly's Jalen Brown deal before he decided. He pushes back on some of the reported "reasons" leaking from LeBron's camp, especially the idea that Donovan Mitchell staying was a dealbreaker, calling that unbelievable given Mitchell's production. Cunningham also breaks down realistic paths forward for Koby Altman, including a potential Denver salary-dump trade for Cam Johnson and a renewed look at Jonathan Kuminga, while stressing the real pressure now falls on Evan Mobley to justify the front office's faith in him.

Anthony Lima and Daryl Ruiter process the fallout after LeBron James signed with Philadelphia instead of returning to Cleveland, with Lima admitting he's genuinely devastated despite knowing LeBron owed the Cavs nothing. They needle each other over Ruiter's confidently wrong "we're getting LeBron" predictions all offseason, joking about erasing the Rich Paul whiteboard and calling Mike Gansey the offseason's real winner for landing him in Philly. Ruiter argues LeBron is the one to blame, not Rich Paul or the front office, framing it as LeBron chasing a new "purpose" after already conquering Cleveland, Miami, and LA.

Doesn't it feel good to put the blame for your breast cancer on that unsuspecting cheeseburger? Of course it does! But the truth is, that “feel good” feeling is misplaced. Diet is often discussed in relation to breast cancer risk, yet diet hasn't been identified as a definitive cause of breast cancer; not that it stops you from blaming and naming your diet as the cause of YOUR breast cancer.

Hour 4 of Afternoon Drive

This week on Circle Back, the crew dives into the Miami Heat's YouTube slip-up, a scheduled livestream titled "LeBron James Introductory Press Conference" for July 27th that got posted, then quickly deleted. The team says it was a mistake made while preparing for a possible signing, but that hasn't stopped the theories. Was this a genuine accident, or a deliberate leak designed to move the needle on prediction markets before anything is even official? From there, the conversation shifts to prediction markets more broadly, after a platform CEO publicly admitted a majority of users lose money. Is that refreshing honesty, or a red flag? We compare it to loss rates at traditional sportsbooks, casinos, and horse tracks to find out if the number is really as bad as it sounds. Then we dig into a new report showing nearly half of all sports event contract volume in the country comes from just two states without legal sports betting, California and Texas, and debate whether that's really a "gold rush" or something else entirely. Hosted live by Jacob Gramegna, joined by Isaac Rose-Berman, Joey Knish, and Mike.

What if taking responsibility did not mean carrying the weight of everything that goes wrong? In this episode, Dr. Cindra Kamphoff explains the important difference between blame and responsibility. Blame keeps your attention fixed on the past, while responsibility helps you identify what is within your control and choose your next best step. Through the story of an executive who was blaming himself for challenges at work and at home, Cindra shows how even self-blame can drain your energy and leave you feeling powerless. Real responsibility means owning your part without taking ownership of everything.

Who's to blame for the NYC Blackout of 1977?On this week's REWIND, This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) welcomes comedian Janet Varney, host of The JV Club podcast, to discuss the epic NYC Blackout of 1977. If you're in the dark about this one, allow us to shine a much needed light on all the events that occurred during this prolonged power outage. Did a freak lightning strike put a strain on the NYC power grid or was the strain already brewing due to economic, institutional and government failures.

Freddy Peralta's miserable return to Milwaukee leaves Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash stunned by his postgame admission that he does not know what is wrong. After another rough outing, the hosts argue that David Stearns cannot be protected by the idea that nobody could have predicted the deal failing. He gets credit when moves work, and he deserves the blame when they become disasters. The conversation also shifts to the Cowboys, where Evan makes an early declaration that Dallas will win the NFC East if its rebuilt defense can become merely respectable. Plus, the return of the offseason game “New Team, Who Dis” produces an immediate miss, and Aaron Boone's vague update on Giancarlo Stanton creates even more uncertainty for the Yankees.
