Democrats need vastly more imagination to confront the enormous challenges the country faces politically, economically, and on climate. The party can't just focus on stopping what is happening in Washington. Meanwhile, Trump can't stop insulting the intelligence of the American people, every part of the political spectrum has something to hate about the reconciliation bill, and libertarians need to speak up about a president disappearing people to a foreign black site. Plus, cracking the manosphere, what Biden could've done differently on Covid, and the era of politicians sticking to their talking points is over.

In this episode, Matthew Balentine takes us deep into the heart of 1 Kings 3, where Solomon is offered a blank check from God: “Ask for whatever you want.” Instead of asking for power, wealth, or comfort, Solomon makes a surprising choice—he asks for wisdom. Through this powerful story, Matthew explores how our prayers reveal our priorities, how boldness and humility can coexist in our conversations with God, and why wisdom is the key to fulfilling our calling. Drawing from personal reflections and biblical insight, this episode challenges listeners to reconsider what they ask God for—and encourages them to pursue prayers that align with God's purpose, not just personal comfort. Key Topics: Solomon's bold yet humble prayer in 1 Kings 3 How our requests to God reveal our true priorities The connection between wisdom and purpose Why God delights in prayers that bless others The temptation to want results without the journey Encouragement to pray for character over comfort God's promise to give “immeasurably more” (Ephesians 3:20) Living in the answer: Walking in wisdom every day Whether you're seeking clarity in your calling, struggling with what to pray for, or simply wanting to grow deeper in your faith, this episode will inspire you to approach God with both confidence and purpose.

Acts 13:44-52 44 The next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord. 45 But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy and began to contradict what was spoken by Paul, reviling him. 46 And Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, saying, “It was necessary that the word of God be spoken first to you. Since you thrust it aside and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we are turning to the Gentiles. 47 For so the Lord has commanded us, saying, “‘I have made you a light for the Gentiles,     that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.'” 48 And when the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the word of the Lord, and as many as were appointed to eternal life believed.49 And the word of the Lord was spreading throughout the whole region. 50 But the Jews incited the devout women of high standing and the leading men of the city, stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their district. 51 But they shook off the dust from their feet against them and went to Iconium. 52 And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.

If showing up on camera makes you nervous, you're not alone—and this episode is definitely for you. In this conversation, I'm sharing why being confident on video is no longer optional if you're building a brand or business in 2025. I'll show you how to start small (like using Instagram Stories or recording short videos), how to build your comfort level over time, and why video helps people connect with you faster than anything else. I'm also sharing my own journey with on-camera fear, and how one of my clients landed a five-figure consulting contract simply by showing up consistently on video. From imposter syndrome to the "I don't like how I look on camera" struggle, I'm addressing all the mindset blocks—and how to push past them. Plus, I'll give you a sneak peek into the upcoming 7 Figure Bestseller Summit, happening July 12, 2025, in Alpharetta, Georgia, where I'll help you boost your on-camera confidence and learn how to sell like the expert you already are. What You'll Hear in This Episode: - Why video is a must-have in your brand strategy for 2025 - What to do when you're nervous, unsure, or worried about how you look - How to get comfortable by starting small (without the pressure) - Why live video creates deeper connections with your audience - Simple tools and setup tips (no fancy gear needed!) - How showing up on video helped a client land a major contract - What's in store at the Seven Figure Bestseller Summit Quotes “You might feel awkward, you might not like how you sound—but I'd rather show up imperfectly than stay silent and miss the chance to fulfill my calling.” “Don't let tech intimidate you. Use what you have. Your phone, good lighting, and clear audio are more than enough.” “Before you try to sell, you need to serve. Teach something. Give value. People buy from those they trust—and video fast-tracks that trust.” “Go live. Talk to real people. Engage in real time. That's how you build a loyal audience that buys.” “One of my clients closed a five-figure consulting deal because she showed up on LinkedIn with consistent video content. Visibility created the opportunity.” Secure your ticket for the 7 Figure Bestseller Summit: https://www.jasminewomack.com/summit Connect with Jasmine: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thejasminewomack Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/authorjasminewomack YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thejasminewomack Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejasminewomack Website: https://www.jasminewomack.com Work with Me: Secure your ticket for the 7 Figure Bestseller Summit: https://www.jasminewomack.com/summit Grab a copy of my book - Published and Paid: Write, Self-Publish, and Launch Nonfiction Book in 90 Days or Less: https://www.jasminewomack.com/published-paid-book Apply to the Published and Paid®️ Mastermind: https://www.jasminewomack.com/mastermindapplication

Welcome to the Podcast of Southwest Bible Fellowship in Tempe, Arizona. WHO ARE WE? • We are a group of people who are committed to living the grace life as set forth by the apostle of the Gentiles, the Apostle Paul. • We come together to study our Bibles, and yes, we believe we have God's perfect Word in the King James Bible. It and it alone is our final authority in all matters of faith and practice! • We do not come together and study our Bibles for the intent of being smarter than others. We understand that knowledge for the sake of knowledge is purely vain and serves no Godly purpose. • We do come together and study our Bibles for the intent of knowing our Lord Jesus Christ and the power of His resurrection. (Philippians 3:10) • We do come together and study our Bibles to understand that we have been crucified with Christ; nevertheless we live; yet not us, but Christ liveth in us: and the life which we now live in the flesh, we live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved us and gave himself for us. (Galatians 2:20) • We do come together and study our Bibles to understand that because Jesus Christ shed His blood for us and we should not live for ourselves but for Him, who died for us and rose again. (2 Cor. 5:15) • We do not claim to have attained to these lofty goals, but we press toward the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Do you struggle with praying spontaneously? You're not alone. In this powerful Rise Up reflection, Fr. Jonathan Meyer shares his own journey of learning how to pray from the heart—and teaches a simple 6-part model anyone can use:   Address. Thank. Thank. Ask. Ask. Close.   Drawing from today's Gospel (“Whatever you ask in my name, I will do…” – John 14), Fr. Meyer reminds us that we're all called to pray boldly, in the name of Jesus. Whether you're a teen, a parent, or someone new to prayer—this method can transform how you talk to God.  

Dingdong, the wicked witch is selling the Blazers. Bye-bye, Jody. You and your penguin bones can go back to Seattle. Katy Perry is apparently what space has been missing. And why do we all feel like we have to monetize everything, even our hobbies? Is this why we all feel so damn lonely?

What If I Don't Want To Forgive?Matthew 19:26 “Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.'”Jesus is our guide.  He came down to earth to show us how we should be acting.  He came down to teach us that the Lord our God is love.  He is trying to guide us to springs of the water of life, but we keep wanting to do our own thing.  We don't want to follow in his foot steps.  Why don't we?  Because  it is hard.  Jesus said to love everyone, even our enemies.  Is this even possible?  Jesus wants us to forgive, but aren't there some people that just can't be forgiven?  Shouldn't be forgiven?  I wonder if we all realize what forgiveness is? Forgiveness is not telling the other person that what they did was right, or ok.  It was not ok what they did.  It is not forgetting what happened or excusing it in anyway.  Forgiveness is admitting to yourself that this terrible thing did happen, that you can't change it, so you are releasing any hold that it has over you.  I know forgiveness is hard.  In some cases it seems impossible.  However, it is so necessary.  God tells us right in the Our Father Prayer, Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.  God is going to forgive us to the same extent that we forgave others.  Think about the things or the people that you are unable to forgive.  Do you really want the inability to forgive them to get in the way of God forgiving you?  There are some things that no matter how hard we try, we can not forgive.  This is ok, we don't have to do this on our own.  God can step in and help us forgive.  The only thing we must do is to ask him.  To give Him permission to work in your heart to forgive.  We had a word or prophecy given at our prayer group that I feel is so important to share.“I ask you to forgive my children.  I know that is a difficult command and at times may seem very impossible for you to do.  But I remind you that I am with you always, and with me nothing is impossible.  Bring your inability to me.  Allow me to work with my grace through you, so that you can be my forgiving heart for all the world.”In this word, the Lord is asking us to forgive.  He is reminding us that even though we feel it is impossible, nothing is impossible in Him.  In Matthew 19:26 Jesus said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”  It also says in Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”  We are not in this alone.  We have God on our side and with that we can do anything.  I love how God always shows up to remind us of things when we forget.  I like how God is reminding us that He is always with us and then asking us to bring our inability to him.  He is asking us to allow Him to work with His grace through us, so that we can bring His forgiving heart to all the world.  How beautiful is that?  How great is it that God not only wants to use his grace to heal our heart, but he wants us to be His forgiving heart for all the world.  God gave us free will.  Can you imagine how frustrating it must be for Him to sit by and watch us squander all that he has provided for us?  He would love nothing more than to rain down graces on us and yet we can't be bothered to let him.  God is not going to step in if we do not ask Him.  He does not want to force us to love Him.  The only way to ensure it is true love is to give us the choice to love him or not.  Every day we have a choice to make.  Are we going to choose God or are we going to choose something else?  God has so much grace and so much mercy to give.  He does not leave us alone to make these decisions.  He is there for us every step of the way.But we do need to make that choice.  Once we do make that choice, He will be there to help us overcome all of the obstacles.  And there will be obstacles.  The life that God is asking us to live is not an easy life.   Especially in this world right now.  Forgiveness and love are two things that we are being called to do that are not the norm in society today.  We live in a culture that does not want to forgive.  We want to stay angry, blame other, and not even talk to someone that doesn't think as we think.   This is not what Jesus wants for us.  Jesus did not come to earth to be with people just like Him.  He did not just hang around with those that believed like he believed.  He didn't find all the people that were getting it right in life.  He came for those that were struggling.  He came for those that needed Him.  When he met these people, he did not meet them with judgement and unforgiveness.  He met them with love and forgiveness.  He accepted them as they were and encouraged them and helped them to become better.  How great would it be if we could do the same.  If we could greet everyone we meet with the same love and acceptance that Jesus had.  You may be thinking that you are different.  Jesus could do that because he was man and God, so he had the Holy Spirit inside him to help him make the right choice.  Guess what?  So do you.  You have the Holy Spirit inside of you and if you let Him, He will guide you to make the right choices as well.  Just remember what Jesus said in Matthew 19:26, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”  You can do this!  It is possible!  Just take a moment and ask God for help.Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless all those listening to this episode today.  Lord, we really want to forgive and yet we also don't really want to forgive.  Please help us.  We give you permission right now to come into our lives, into our hearts and help us to forgive anyone we are struggling to forgive.  Lord we want to be free to be forgiven by you.  We want nothing in the way of that forgiveness.  Dad, Abba, Father, please come to our aide and help us.  Show us how to forgive.  Prepare our hearts to forgive.  Give us the strength and the grace to forgive.  We trust you Lord.  We love you!  We ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus' holy name, Amen!Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk Boldly with Jesus.  I look forward to meeting you here again tomorrow.  Remember Jesus loves you, and so do I!  Have a blessed day! www.findingtruenorthcoaching.comCLICK HERE TO DONATECLICK HERE to sign up for Mentoring CLICK HERE to sign up for Daily "Word from the Lord" emailsCLICK HERE to sign up for my newsletter & receive a free audio training about inviting Jesus into your daily lifeCLICK HERE to buy my book Total Trust in God's Safe Embrace

Boldly going where few fandom scholars have gone before, Fandom for Us, by Us: The Pleasures and Practices of Black Audiences (NYU Press, 2025) breaks from our focus on white fandom to center Black fandoms. Alfred L. Martin, Jr., engages these fandoms through what he calls the “four C's”: class, clout, canon, and comfort. Class is a key component of how Black fandom is contingent on distinctions between white, nationally recognized cultural productions and multicultural and/or regional cultural productions, as demonstrated by Misty Copeland's ascension in American Ballet Theatre. Clout refers to Black fans' realization of their own consumer spending power as an agent for industrial change, reducing the precarity of Blackness within historically white cultural apparatuses and facilitating the production of Black blockbusters like 2018's Black Panther. Canon entails a communal fannish practice of sharing media objects, like the 1978 film The Wiz, which lead them to take on meanings outside of their original context. Comfort describes the nostalgic and sentimental affects associated with beloved fan objects such as the television show, Golden Girls, connected to notions of Black joy and signaling moments wherein Black people can just be themselves. Through 75 in-depth interviews with Black fans, Fandom for Us, by Us argues not only for the importance of studying Black fandoms, but also demonstrates their complexities by both coupling and decoupling Black reception practices from the politics of representation. Martin highlights the nuanced ways Black fans interact with media representations, suggesting class, clout, canon, and comfort are universal to the study of all fandoms. Yet, for all the ways these fandoms are similar and reciprocal, Black fandoms are also their own set of practices, demanding their own study. Peter C.

“For God called you to do good, even if it means suffering, just as Christ suffered for you. He is your example, and you must follow in his steps.” (1 Peter 2:21 NLT) I heard a story of a man who was trying to start his own religion, without much success. He went to a wise friend and said, “I’m trying to start my own religion, but no one is joining. What do you think I ought to do?” His friend replied, “Why don’t you go get yourself crucified and rise again on the third day. I am sure you will have a lot of followers.” Jesus’ followers were certainly energized and emboldened after His crucifixion and resurrection. But they had been prepared for their mission long before then. For Jesus’ followers, His public ministry was a three-year training course. During their time together, Jesus gave them—and all who follow Him—a method for ministering to others. In Matthew 5 alone, He said, “God blesses you when people mock you and persecute you and lie about you and say all sorts of evil things against you because you are my followers. Be happy about it! Be very glad!” (verses 11–12 NLT). “If someone slaps you on the right cheek, offer the other cheek also” (verse 39 NLT). “If you are sued in court and your shirt is taken from you, give your coat, too” (verse 40 NLT). “If a soldier demands that you carry his gear for a mile, carry it two miles” (verse 41 NLT). “Love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you!” (verse 44 NLT). In other words, march to the beat of a different drummer. Boldly set yourself apart from the world, no matter what the cost. Let people see the difference the Lord has made in your life. Jesus gave His followers a mission for ministering to others. Before He ascended to Heaven, He gave His followers marching orders: “Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age” (Matthew 28:19–20 NLT). The news of Jesus’ life, teachings, sacrificial death, and triumphant resurrection—of the salvation and eternal life He made possible—is too good to keep to ourselves. He wants us to share it with others in ways that resonate with them. That’s our challenge—and our privilege. Jesus gave His followers a model for ministering to others. He asks nothing of us that He didn’t do Himself. The apostle Peter emphasized the importance of following Jesus’ example in the passage above. The apostle Paul wrote, “You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being. When he appeared in human form, he humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross” (Philippians 2:5–8 NLT). Humility is the key. One of the last things Jesus did before He was arrested was wash His disciples’ feet. In the culture of the first century AD, this was a job reserved for the lowliest of servants. Jesus wanted His followers to know that when it comes to God’s work, we are servants. Pride and arrogance are obstacles that keep us from fulfilling His plan for us. Jesus’ disciples learned these lessons well, although it doesn’t always appear that way in Scripture. Following Jesus’ example, they took His Good News to the ends of the earth. We may not cover nearly as much distance as they did, but we, too, are equipped to share the Good News of Jesus with others. Jesus set the example for lovingly ministering to the people around us. He showed us what servanthood looks like. Reflection question: What method for ministering to others will you focus on this week?

Confidence in girls is on the decline, and with it, their willingness to step into leadership. In a world that often equates leadership with ambition, self-promotion, and social clout, how can we help our daughters embrace leadership that is humble, Christ-centered, and purpose-driven?  In this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael and Melissa explore how God uniquely equips each girl to lead in her own way—whether she's a bold, visionary leader or a quiet, compassionate one. Drawing from Biblical examples like Moses, Gideon, and Abigail, they unpack what it means to lead with faith and integrity, rather than striving for popularity or power.  You'll also hear insights from American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Patti Garibay on how servant leadership transforms both the leader and those she influences. Plus, Rachael and Melissa share practical ways to nurture leadership in everyday moments—whether it's during the drive home from school, in a Troop setting, or after a tough situation where your daughter feels called to take a stand.  Looking for a Christ-centered way to develop your daughter's leadership skills? American Heritage Girls provides girls with hands-on experiences to grow as leaders through badge work, service projects, and opportunities that stretch and strengthen their confidence.  Find an American Heritage Girls Troop near you, visit americanheritagegirls.org      Add even more Biblical wisdom to your parenting quiver, visit raisinggodlygirls.com

Pharaoh Thutmose III's legendary military career kicked off on 16th April, 1457 BC with the Battle of Megiddo, the first recorded battle in history. Facing a rebellion from the Canaanite city-states, who thought they could take advantage of his inexperience, Thutmose assembled a massive army and marched straight to Megiddo, a crucial strategic hub in modern-day Israel.  Boldly, he led his troops through a treacherous, narrow pass, single file, at great personal risk. His generals were understandably terrified, but the gamble paid off—and they took the enemy by surprise. Yet, despite his brilliant tactics, his troops got distracted looting the battlefield, and it took a further seven months of siege before they secured the city. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how detailed records of the Pharaoh's expeditions have been passed down; wonder if scribes became weary of the warrior-king's repeated victories; and discover why we should all pay attention to Megiddo - it's in the Book of Revelation… Further Reading: • ‘Thutmose III's Battle of Megiddo Inscription' (World History Encyclopedia, 2017): https://www.worldhistory.org/article/1102/thutmose-iiis-battle-of-megiddo-inscription/ • ‘Battle of Megiddo' (National Army Musem): https://www.nam.ac.uk/explore/battle-megiddo • ‘​​The Deadliest Pharaoh | Thutmose III | Ancient Egypt Documentary' (History Explained, 2020): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2XS3vmVGjU #Egyptian #War #Israel #Royals Love the show?
