Worry may feel normal, but it's quietly draining your energy, confidence, and results. In this episode, Lori and I dive into why worry isn't just a habit, it's a signal. A signal that you're operating from fear instead of faith, lack instead of certainty. We talk about how worrying steals time you could be using to create solutions, how it impacts your energy in business and relationships, and why most of the things you stress about never actually happen. We also share exercises to interrupt worry in real time, including how to "play the movie to the end" and how to borrow certainty from people who've already walked the path ahead of you. Get ready to stop feeding worry and start leading your life and business with intention.   HIGHLIGHTS Why worry is a sign of misplaced faith. The surprising amount of time worry steals from your life. A 10 minute exercise that exposes how unnecessary most worries are. How worry creates a lack of energy and leads to bad business decisions. The "play the movie to the end" method to dissolve fear.   RESOURCES Apply for the Elite Entrepreneur Mastermind HERE!

Send us a textGrowth can look strong on paper while everything underneath feels heavier than it should. You're making decisions, approving work, clarifying expectations, answering questions, again. The numbers are up, but the agency still runs through you. That's the Founder Bottleneck.In this episode, I sit down for the second time with Marilyn Jenkins, digital growth strategist and founder of MJ Media Group LLC and Law Marketing Zone. Marilyn has spent decades helping service businesses scale with clarity, most recently through her new book, The 2026 Local SEO Playbook for Law Firms, and her national TV show, The Marketing Zone.What makes this conversation different is where we focus. We don't start with tools, AI, or tactics. We start with clarity: how founders unintentionally become the bottleneck through poor communication, over-control, and trying to stay indispensable. Marilyn breaks down why education scales trust, why mystique slows momentum, and why no system, automation, or AI will fix a leadership constraint.If your agency is busy but not scalable, this episode will give you practical insight into delegation, team development, client communication, and how removing the Founder Bottleneck unlocks your agency's next level—without burning out your people or yourself.Books MentionedThe 2026 Local SEO Playbook for Law Firms by Marilyn JenkinsBuy Back Your Time by Dan MartellIf you want to connect with Marilyn or explore her work, the best place is LinkedIn.

Joyce discusses how liberal activist judges have been using their power to block and prevent the Trump Administration from pushing forward the MAGA movement.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A lot of believers are fighting battles they were never meant to lose, and the real reason has nothing to do with weakness and everything to do with timing. There are moments when a spirit tries to block your promotion right before God elevates you, and most Christians misread it as failure instead of spiritual resistance. I reveal how to recognize that moment, how to stop partnering with discouragement, and how to step into the authority that disarms the enemy's pressure. When you see what is actually happening around you, you will realize you are closer to breakthrough than you ever imagined.   Podcast Episode 1982: Is There a Spirit Blocking Your Promotion?

The CIA has assessed that Ukraine was not targeting a residence of Russian President Vladimir Putin in a recent drone attack, a claim that Putin told President Trump, and that Trump seemed to accept. Trump now suggests that he agrees with European leaders that it's Russia blocking the path to a peace agreement. Nick Schifrin discussed more with Angela Stent.

Kate Elisabeth joins GK for the first episode of the year and she's fully in her single era. They talk New Year resolutions, dating apps, Raya Premium, boarding school chaos to brand ski trips in their early influencer years.

Send me a messageMost companies say they're tackling Scope 3. Then they rely on averages and hope for the best. That's not decarbonisation. That's denial with spreadsheets.In this episode, I'm joined by Paul Byrnes, CEO of Mavarick AI, to dig into one of the most stubborn blockers to real emissions reduction: bad data across global supply chains. Paul brings a rare mix to the table. Deep manufacturing roots, serious machine learning expertise, and a refreshingly low tolerance for AI theatre. We focus squarely on the climate challenge that keeps executives awake at night. How to cut Scope 3 emissions when suppliers are overloaded, data is unreliable, and margins are thin.You'll hear why most Scope 3 programmes stall before they deliver a single tonne of abatement. We dig into how spend-based accounting can introduce error rates of up to 40%, masking risk instead of revealing it. And why primary supplier data is fast becoming table stakes for any credible net zero strategy.We also unpack where AI genuinely helps emissions reduction, and where it doesn't. From cleaning contaminated data sets, to identifying real decarbonisation levers with financial and environmental ROI, this conversation is about using technology to move from reporting to action.You might be surprised to learn why supplier engagement only works when there's a clear win for suppliers themselves, and why emissions reduction scales fastest when it also improves cost, efficiency, or resilience. No greenwash. No magic bullets. Just physics, data, and incentives aligned.

From the Best of What On Earth – Come with us to California where entrepreneurs are sending balloons full of sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere. It's a form of solar geoengineering known as stratospheric aerosol injection, and the company Make Sunsets isn't waiting for scientific consensus before they launch. We hear about their business model, and then from the researchers who question both the science and ethics of the practice.

In this powerful episode of Radio Medium, Jennifer from New Jersey connects with loving female spirits from her family who come forward with clear guidance, validation, and encouragement around her home, safety, and creative path. Laura Lee immediately picks up on maternal and aunt-like spirits who shared Jennifer's love of cooking and baking, revealing why her current living space no longer supports her growth. Spirit confirms that Jennifer's kitchen — and her apartment — have become too small energetically and physically, especially as troubling neighbor dynamics begin affecting her peace of mind and emotional well-being. Through spirit guidance, Jennifer receives reassurance that relocation is not a loss, but a necessary step toward safety, freedom, and expansion. Her loved ones emphasize that her baking is more than a hobby — it's a conduit for love, healing, and future abundance. This episode offers comfort for anyone feeling watched, unsettled, or blocked in their current environment — and reminds listeners that when love is infused into your passion, it naturally attracts the right people, opportunities, and protection.

Most people believe their unhappiness comes from their circumstances — their job, their relationships, their stress. But in this episode, I share what I've witnessed again and again in my work: many of us are held back not by what's happening around us, but by old protective patterns happening inside us. If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure why happiness feels out of reach, this episode may help you see yourself with more compassion — and offer a doorway back to possibility.

“Why can't I just feel happier… when my life is actually good?”If you've asked yourself some version of this question - it isn't a gratitude problem,it's not a mindset failure,and it's not that you're “bad at joy.”It's what's happening in your physiology. Chronically elevated cortisol can quietly shift your nervous system into survival mode — and when that happens, joy becomes neurologically inaccessible, even when good things are happening.In this episode, we unpack:✔️ The science of high cortisol and low mood — and why stress chemistry blunts pleasure ✔️ The subtle, real-life signs your nervous system is blocking joy for protection ✔️ Why “choosing joy” and mindset work often fall flat when your body is overwhelmed ✔️ How somatic, body-based practices help your system feel safe enough to receive goodness again ✔️ Simple ways to start softening stress so joy can come back onlineThis conversation isn't about forcing happiness.It's about removing the physiological blocks that keep joy out of reach.Because joy isn't something you create with effort.It's something your body allows when it feels safe.If you've felt flat, disconnected, or like everything is just “one more thing to get through,” this episode will feel validating — and gently hopeful.Your nervous system isn't broken.It's been protecting you.And with the right support, it can learn how to soften again — so you can actually feel the life you're living.Related Episodes:Previous Episode4 Signs You're Addicted to Cortisol (and How to Fix It)5 Habits I Stopped Doing to Heal My Nervous System & Balance My Cortisol4 Ways to Foster Joy in Our FamiliesTake 2 Minutes: Boost Your Joy with Daily Gratitude Practices Backed by Science with Marc Fussell-- Burnout Recovery Blueprint starts again in January - check it out!

Did you know that small changes in behavior and belief systems can transform your health for good? But where do you start? In today's episode, I'm joined by the incredible Carrie Lupoli, a certified nutritionist, health coach, and behavioral specialist. We explore three powerful factors affecting our health: Blood Sugar, Behaviors, and Beliefs. These three "BS's" are often overlooked, yet addressing them can transform your health, strengthen your bones, and boost overall wellness.  Carrie shares simple, practical steps to overcome these blocks and explains how they're crucial not only for our physical health but also for our mental and emotional well-being. Carrie's passion for health is contagious, and her approach empowers you to take control of your health from the inside out. Whether you're dealing with bone health challenges or just looking to optimize your health, Carrie's insights will empower you to make real, sustainable changes.   "We have to stop the scroll, stop trying to find the quick fix or the next big thing, and recognize the BS that's out there is not helping us. It's just noise, and it confuses us more. The BS that really matters is understanding blood sugar, getting a hold of your belief systems, and recognizing that behavioral science is the key to you actually doing, changing, and understanding yourself for the long term." ~ Carrie Lupoli   In this episode: - [00:00] - Introduction to Carrie Lupoli and her work - [04:51] - How blood sugar imbalances affect bone health - [07:36] - The effects of unbalanced blood sugar on your overall health - [10:48] - Carrie's PFC3 formula to balance blood sugar - [17:30] - Tips for testing insulin sensitivity and maintaining healthy levels - [26:50] - How behavioral science creates sustainable health changes - [29:04] - Simple steps to control blood sugar and boost health - [36:00] - The SNAP formula to overcome disempowering belief systems - [43:02] - Carrie's advice for long-term health transformation   Resources mentioned - Carrie's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ - Osteoporosis Exercises to Strengthen Your Bones and Prevent Fractures - tinyurl.com/osteoporosisexercises   More about Margie - Website - https://margiebissinger.com/  - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/p/Margie-Bissinger-MS-PT-CHC-100063542905332/  - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/margiebissinger/?hl=en    DISCLAIMER – The information presented on this podcast should not be construed as medical advice.

TikTok just launched gift cards to compete with Amazon, Waymo robotaxis completely failed during a San Francisco blackout, and billionaires are fighting over Warner Bros in a $108 billion bidding war. This week in tech was INSANE.In this episode, Obi and Kaitlin break down three massive stories that show where technology and business are heading in 2025.WHAT WE COVER:TIKTOK GIFT CARDS - THE AMAZON KILLER?TikTok Shop just launched digital gift cards ($10-$500) with personalized animations and video messages coming in 2026. This isn't just about gifting - it's about locking users into the TikTok ecosystem the same way Amazon Prime does. After doing $500 million in Black Friday sales alone, TikTok is making the exact same play WeChat made in China: become the everything app. We break down why this matters, how it compares to Amazon and eBay, and why TikTok is going ALL IN on e-commerce while still fighting to avoid a US ban.WAYMO ROBOTAXIS BREAK DOWN IN SAN FRANCISCOOn December 20th, San Francisco had a massive blackout affecting 130,000 people. Waymo's self-driving taxis just... stopped. Middle of intersections. Blocking traffic. Over a thousand robotaxis frozen like confused puppies. We explain what actually happened (spoiler: they couldn't phone home to human operators), why this exposes a HUGE problem with autonomous vehicles at scale, and what this means for the future of self-driving cars in cities. Plus: why Elon's response was misleading and what the Challenger disaster teaches us about edge cases.PARAMOUNT VS NETFLIX: THE $108 BILLION WARNER BROS WARDavid Ellison (son of Oracle founder Larry Ellison) wants to buy Warner Bros Discovery for $108 billion. Netflix wants it for $83 billion. Warner Bros said Paramount's offer was "illusory" and didn't trust they had the money. So Larry Ellison personally guaranteed $40.4 billion of the deal - one of the biggest personal guarantees in corporate history. We break down this billionaire soap opera, explain what's actually at stake (HBO, DC Comics, Harry Potter, CNN), compare the two offers, and discuss what this means for the future of Hollywood and streaming.THE BIG PICTURE:All three stories share a common theme - ambitious technology and business moves that are impressive but fragile. TikTok's one ban away from losing everything. Waymo's one emergency away from gridlock. Paramount's one regulatory issue away from losing $108 billion. This is what happens when innovation moves faster than the systems supporting it.This is our FIRST couples episode - Obi hosts Courtside Financial, Kaitlin co-hosts and reacts.

How do stress and sleep disruption stop fat loss? And what can you do to get your body working with you, not against you? I hear it all the time: you're eating right, lifting weights, and doing cardio, yet the weight scale won't budge. In this episode, I break down how chronic stress and poor sleep quietly sabotage fat loss by disrupting cortisol, insulin, hunger hormones, and metabolism. I also share the exact strategies I use to protect my sleep, calm stress, and keep my metabolism working with me instead of against me. What you'll learn: (02:42) Why chronically elevated cortisol drives insulin resistance, belly fat, and steady weight gain over time. (04:32) How stress hormones increase cravings and rewire appetite toward sugary foods. (06:59) How short sleep disrupts leptin, ghrelin, and blood sugar control. (07:46) Why even one night of poor sleep can increase insulin resistance and slow metabolism. (09:22) How poor sleep disrupts growth hormone release and muscle repair. (11:27) Why eating protein first and pairing it with fiber stabilizes blood sugar and supports fat loss. (14:57) How meal timing and caffeine cutoffs directly impact cortisol and sleep quality.

Canada has embraced a culture of death.   America's neighbor to the north legalized euthanasia in 2016, and since then more than 75,000 Canadians have participated in Canada's Medical Assistance in Dying program. Canada also has no restrictions on abortion and only considers a baby a human after it passes through the birth canal.   Canada has become a “totalitarian wild west,” according to Liana Graham, who grew up in Canada and now works as a research assistant in domestic policy at The Heritage Foundation.   Areas that Canada should regulate, such as abortion and physician-assisted suicide, it does not; instead, it has created stringent regulations around freedom of speech and religion.   On this week's episode of "Problematic Women," Liana joins the show to discuss the ways America can keep itself from becoming Canada 2.0 and protect the value of life that was intrinsic to America's founding.   Also on today's show, we wrap up the year by discussing President Donald Trump's Wednesday night address to the nation.   Enjoy the show!Follow us on Instagram for EXCLUSIVE bonus content and the chance to be featured in our episodes: https://www.instagram.com/problematicwomen/   Connect with our hosts on socials!   Elise McCue X: https://x.com/intent/user?screen_name=EliseMcCue Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisemccueofficial/   Virginia Allen: X: https://x.com/intent/user?screen_name=Virginia_Allen5 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/virginiaallenofficial/   Crystal Bonham: X: https://x.com/intent/user?screen_name=crystalkatetx   Check out Top News in 10, hosted by The Daily Signal's Tony Kinnett: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjMHBev3NsoUpc2Pzfk0n89cXWBqQltHY Learn more about your ad choices.

This Day in Legal History: Entrapment as DefenseOn December 19, 1932, the U.S. Supreme Court decided Sorrells v. United States, a case that reshaped how American courts evaluate government conduct in criminal investigations. The case involved a Prohibition-era prosecution in which a federal agent repeatedly pressured the defendant to obtain illegal liquor. The Court held that criminal convictions should not stand when the government induces a crime that the defendant was not otherwise predisposed to commit. This decision formally recognized entrapment as a valid defense under federal law.Rather than focusing only on the defendant's actions, the Court emphasized the importance of limiting improper law enforcement tactics. The majority opinion reasoned that Congress could not have intended criminal statutes to be enforced through deception that manufactures crime. As a result, courts were instructed to examine whether the criminal intent originated with the government or the accused. The ruling reflected growing concern about aggressive policing methods during Prohibition. Over time, Sorrells became a foundational case cited whenever defendants challenge undercover operations. The decision also highlighted the judiciary's role in supervising executive conduct in criminal prosecutions.The Trump administration has suspended the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program—commonly known as the green card lottery—following two high-profile campus attacks. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced the move, stating that the suspect in the fatal shootings of a Brown University student and an MIT professor had entered the U.S. through the program. The shooter, Claudio Manuel Neves Valente, a 48-year-old Portuguese national and former Brown student, was found dead in an apparent suicide. Noem said the pause is necessary to prevent further harm from what she called a “disastrous program.”The lottery program, which grants up to 50,000 green cards annually, has long been a target of Trump's immigration agenda, which links violent incidents to immigration policy failures. This suspension follows earlier actions by the administration, including visa restrictions after a separate shooting by an Afghan national and a proposal to impose a $100,000 application fee for H-1B work visas, which are heavily used in the tech industry.Trump's broader immigration crackdown also includes enhanced social media vetting for tourists, expanded ICE operations in major cities, and the development of large-scale immigration detention centers known as “mega centers.” These moves align with Trump's campaign promises to tighten border controls and execute large-scale deportations.Trump Suspends US Green Card Lottery After Brown, MIT AttacksTrump administration officials are scrambling to meet a Friday deadline to release a large cache of documents related to the Justice Department's investigations into Jeffrey Epstein. The release was mandated by a recently passed law, supported by both parties in Congress, following months of political pressure and public frustration over the administration's resistance to transparency. Though President Trump initially opposed the legislation, he reversed course shortly before the vote amid growing dissent from his own supporters.The new law permits the Justice Department to withhold certain details, including victims' identities and information tied to ongoing investigations. Attorneys in the department's National Security Division have been racing to redact sensitive data, raising internal concerns about the risk of mistakes, especially regarding private information. The tight timeline has disrupted other DOJ casework since Thanksgiving.Trump's handling of the Epstein matter has dented his support among Republicans, with only 44% approving of his actions, according to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll. This contrasts sharply with his broader 82% approval within the party. Critics argue that Trump's past friendship with Epstein and his failure to follow through on a 2024 campaign promise to declassify the records have fueled suspicions of a cover-up. While Trump has denied knowledge of Epstein's crimes and has not been accused of wrongdoing, past email disclosures have added to the controversy.As more emails emerge—some implying Trump's involvement, others suggesting no direct misconduct—the administration has tried to redirect attention toward figures like Bill Clinton and JPMorgan. But with midterms approaching, the Epstein file release may remain a political liability.Trump administration officials race to meet Friday deadline for Epstein files | ReutersWisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan was found guilty of obstructing a federal proceeding for aiding a migrant in avoiding an immigration arrest at the courthouse, marking a significant legal win for the Trump administration's intensified immigration enforcement efforts. The jury acquitted Dugan on a lesser charge of concealing a person from arrest but convicted her on the more serious obstruction count. The case is part of a broader Justice Department campaign targeting local officials accused of interfering with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations.Prosecutors alleged that in 2023, Dugan helped Mexican national Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, who faced domestic violence charges, avoid a planned ICE arrest by rerouting him and his lawyer through a restricted exit after confronting ICE agents stationed near her courtroom. Dugan, a former head of Catholic Charities and longtime legal aid attorney, argued she was following internal court policies meant to manage ICE activity in courthouses, especially after prior arrests caused confusion and concern.Flores-Ruiz was ultimately arrested outside the courthouse after a brief chase. The Justice Department framed the case as a message that even judges are not above the law when it comes to obstructing federal immigration enforcement. Critics, however, view courthouse arrests as damaging to the legal system's integrity, potentially deterring vulnerable individuals from seeking legal protection.Judge found guilty of obstructing arrest in Trump immigration crackdown | ReutersIn a piece I wrote for Forbes earlier this week, I take down yet another One Big Beautiful Bill Act tax “reform” that, upon closer examination, isn't as great a deal as it may first seem.Starting in 2025, a new federal tax deduction allows taxpayers to deduct up to $10,000 in interest on qualifying new car loans—but only under strict conditions. The car must be newly purchased (not leased or used), assembled in the U.S., and not used for business purposes. The deduction phases out for individuals earning over $100,000 and joint filers over $200,000, narrowing its reach to a slim demographic of middle- to upper-middle-income earners. While promoted as consumer relief amid high car prices and interest rates, critics argue it's a veiled subsidy for automakers, not a meaningful economic benefit for struggling Americans.The policy resembles the mortgage interest deduction, which has long been criticized for inflating home prices and disproportionately benefiting wealthier borrowers. Similarly, this car loan deduction doesn't lower car costs—it subsidizes borrowing, pushing consumers toward pricier new vehicles and encouraging debt accumulation. The IRS will also gain new data from lenders, who must now report annual interest paid, further expanding government oversight.Despite the flashy $10,000 cap, few borrowers will come close to that threshold. A typical new car loan might yield only a $600 annual tax benefit—negligible compared to high monthly payments and rapid depreciation. Rather than meaningful relief, the policy appears to be more of a political gesture, using tax code tweaks to create the illusion of support while primarily serving industry interests.‘No Tax On Car Loan Interest'—Tax Reform Or Facade?This week's closing theme is by Louis-Nicolas Clérambault.This week's closing theme comes from Clérambault, a French Baroque composer born on December 19, 1676, whose music captures the elegance and structure of early 18th-century Paris. Clérambault is best known today for his sacred cantatas and his refined works for keyboard and chamber ensemble. He spent much of his career as an organist, serving at prominent Paris churches and developing a style that balanced expressive melody with formal clarity. His music reflects the French taste for ornamentation while remaining grounded and disciplined.The piece featured here is Suite du premier ton: V. Basse et Dessus de Trompette, presented in a complete performance. This movement highlights the contrast between a strong bass line and a bright, trumpet-like upper voice, a hallmark of French Baroque color and texture. Rather than showcasing virtuosity for its own sake, the music emphasizes balance and conversation between parts. The result is confident and ceremonial, yet never overstated.As a closing theme, this work offers a sense of order and resolution, bringing the week to a measured and dignified close. Clérambault's writing reminds us that Baroque music was as much about structure and purpose as it was about beauty. His music endures because it is clear, expressive, and carefully crafted. Ending the week with this piece is a quiet nod to tradition, discipline, and lasting musical craft.Without further ado, Louis-Nicolas Clérambault's Suite du premier ton: V. Basse et Dessus de Trompette–enjoy! This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

They also discuss how processing emotions, clarifying expectations, and surrendering control can lead to healthier, more virtuous relationships.This episode is especially helpful for Catholic college students, young adults, and anyone preparing for SEEK or navigating dating with faith and intention.

It's Friday, December 12th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Canadian pastor released from prison with gag order Canadian Pastor Derek Reimer has been released from prison in Calgary, Alberta on strict conditions as he is still serving his one-year house arrest and two-year probation for objecting to a Drag Queen Story Hour for little kids in a 90-second, peaceful conversation with Saddletowne Library Manager Shannon Slater. Reimer is not allowed to use any form of social media. Plus, leftist government officials have actually restricted him from attending the Street Church in Calgary and The Remnant Church in Red Deer because his parole officer is scared he will “rally up the mob.” Pastor Artur Pawlawski of Street Church told The Worldview, “Pastor Reimer has been totally muzzled by the Canadian courts. He has been prohibited from talking with anyone including his family, his friends, churchgoers, or reporters. It's a total, Soviet-style gag order. If he talked to anyone about what is happening he will go straight back to prison.” Pawlawski knows first-hand about these kind of oppressive government tactics. He said, “I grew up behind the Iron Curtain. Communists muzzled the public.  If you dared to expose them by telling the truth, they would do a show trial, imprison you, and torture you. “ Not surprisingly, the Canadian judge insisted that any Biblical objection to the sinful lifestyle of transgenders and homosexuals on the part of Pastor Reimer would qualify as “hate speech.” Calgary Pastor Shawn Hamm said, “The courts in Alberta are corrupt and they have been turned into a political circus! The judicial system can use ‘hurt feelings' in the province of Alberta to try to silence Christians on our biblical beliefs. They are doing their best to silence Pastor Derek, but they cannot silence all of us!” Hamm added, “The Drag Queen Story Hour that is happening all across Canada must be exposed for what it is -- pervert grooming sessions that are happening in public spaces!” Learn more and help with Pastor Reimer's legal defense at www.SavePastorDerek.com. Jeffress: “None of the government's business” what pastors preach On Wednesday, Pastor Robert Jeffress of First Baptist Dallas had a message for  a White House religious liberty panel. JEFFRESS: “What I preach from the pulpit of the First Baptist Church of Dallas, or any pastor preaches from his church is none of the government's business.” (clapping) In testimony before the U.S. Department of Justice's Religious Liberty Commission, Jeffress shared their experience with the Internal Revenue Service during a controversial church tax inquiry in 2021 under former President Joe Biden. Jeffress' statement to the Commission included comments he initially shared with his congregation on Sunday, in which he recounted how the atheist legal organization Freedom From Religion Foundation filed a complaint with the IRS after former Vice President Mike Pence and then-HUD Secretary Dr. Ben Carson shared their faith testimonies of “how they came to know Jesus as Savior” at Jeffress' church in June 2020.  Jeffress said, “It's interesting that we did not hear anything from the IRS for 11 months. Then, four months after Joe Biden became president, on May 6, 2021, the IRS informed our church that they were initiating an inquiry into the tax-exempt status of our church because of our patriotic service.” He added that he does not endorse candidates from the pulpit, but “we encourage Christians to vote their biblical conviction.” Ironically, on November 1, 2020, the same day he addressed his church about the presidential race, President Biden was speaking at the Sharon Baptist Church in Philadelphia, where the former president and the church's pastor “openly encouraged members to vote for Biden while both men were standing in front of a campaign banner in the church.” Jeffress noted, “When we pointed out the contrast to the IRS between our non-endorsement policy and this church's flagrant disregard for the Johnson Amendment, the IRS officials conducting the examination had no response.” While the inquiry lasted more than a year, the IRS eventually acknowledged in July 2022 that First Baptist Dallas “did not engage in any improper political intervention or violate the U.S. tax code.”  Despite the favorable outcome, Jeffress said he wanted to testify before the Commission because while First Baptist Dallas could afford the legal fees, most churches could not — nor, he said, should they have to do so. Elon Musk affirms belief in Creator On The Katie Miller Podcast, billionaire Elon Musk revealed that he looks up to the Creator at the 12:37-mark of a nearly hour-long conversation, reports The Christian Post. MILLER: “Who do you look up to the most?” MUSK: “The Creator.” MILLER: “What's your current position on God?” MUSK: “God is the Creator.” MILLER: “You don't believe in God, though, do you?” MUSK: “Well, I believe those this universe came for something. People have different labels.” The comments from the Tesla and SpaceX founder are the latest in his publicly evolving views on God and faith. In response to a tweet from a user on X urging him to confess a Creator in May 2022, Musk wrote: "Thank you for the blessing, but I'm OK with going to hell, if that is indeed my destination, since the vast majority of all humans ever born will be there." Describing the reality of hell, Jesus said to those on His left, 'Depart from Me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.'"  (Matthew 25:41) Subsequently, in 2025, Musk urged his millions of X followers to go to church following the assassination of Charlie Kirk on September 10th.  He also attended Kirk's memorial in Glendale, Arizona on September 21st. 17 pro-lifers arrested for blocking Memphis Planned Parenthood abortion mill And finally, ten men and seven women spent a night in a Memphis jail on December 5th, after staging a peaceful protest in front of the Memphis, Tennessee Planned Parenthood abortion mill, reports LifeSiteNews.com. The protest was organized by “Rescue Resurrection,” a pro-life group planning “rescue” actions across the country. Those arrested included well-known figures in the pro-life movement: Randall Terry, founder of Operation Rescue; Joan Andrews Bell, a longtime pro-life advocate; Terrisa Bukovinac, director of Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising; Nathan Berning, director of Let Them Live; and Dr. Monica Miller of Citizens for Life, among others. Exhausted from spending a sleepless night in an over-crowded holding cell with no beds, Randall Terry said that “this is a very small price to pay to stand up for the babies.” Video footage of the arrests captured by journalist Ford Fischer shows Terry, Bell, and other pro-life protesters being dragged away by police, because they went limp, before being transported to jail.  And there is video of Joan Andrews Bell, a sernior citizen, being carried away by three Memphis Police Officers. Bell was pardoned by President Trump after being sentenced to two years in prison for a prior abortion clinic blockade for which she was prosecuted under President Biden.
