1. The prayer 2. The results

Welcome to The DMF — Discovering Meaning in Film and Acting. I'm Justin Younts, and in this episode I sit down with Mel Mack for the complete interview.Mel is an acting coach, casting director, actress, and author of 101 Acting Tips, and coaching is really the thread that runs through everything she does. We start with where she's from — Buffalo and Medina, New York — and how she found acting before making the leap to Hollywood, Florida, and eventually Los Angeles with no map for how the business actually worked.What stuck with me most was Mel's take on boldness and analysis paralysis — how so many actors talk themselves out of the choice that would've booked the room, and how she coaches actors out of that pattern. She's blunt about the gap acting schools leave in actors' training: technique gets taught, the business side almost never does. That gap is exactly why she started her own acting studio — the same instinct that carried her through booking Will & Grace and working with Madonna. We also get into what it actually means to bring your authentic self into a room, why bigger choices are easier for a director to work with, and how she coaches actors to adapt their skills across mediums.If you've ever walked out of an audition knowing something was off but couldn't name it, this conversation is for you.In this episode we discuss:Why she started her own acting studio, and the gap in acting education that led her thereHow she coaches actors out of analysis paralysis and into bolder choicesCoaching actors on bringing their authentic selves into the roomWhy bigger choices are easier for a director to work withCoaching actors to adapt their skills across different mediumsBreaking into Los Angeles and learning the business the hard wayBooking Will & Grace and working with MadonnaGrowing up in Buffalo and Medina, and the move to Hollywood, FloridaGuest: Mel Mack, acting coach and author of 101 Acting Tips Mel Mack Acting Studio: https://melmackactingstudio.com/Timestamps: 00:00:00 - Introduction to Mel Mack 00:00:41 - Growing Up in Buffalo and Medina 00:02:15 - Discovering Acting and Moving to Hollywood, Florida 00:04:09 - Boldness, Risk-Taking, and Analysis Paralysis 00:11:48 - Breaking into Los Angeles and Learning the Business 00:13:05 - Why Acting Schools Don't Prepare Actors for Auditions 00:16:11 - From Audition Struggles to Starting an Acting Studio 00:17:57 - Booking Will & Grace and Working with Madonna 00:21:03 - Helping Actors Bring Their Authentic Selves 00:23:57 - Adapting Acting Skills for Different Mediums 00:24:28 - Why Bigger Choices Are Easier to Direct#Acting #ActingCoach #ActingTips #AuditionTips #ActingStudio #CastingDirector #WillAndGrace #Madonna #Hollywood #ActingCareer #Podcast

We look today at the result of the healing of the paralytic and the trial of the apostles Peter and John before the Jewish leaders, seeing Acts 4:1-22 in the light of Exodus 34:29-35; Deuteronomy 13:2-4; Psalm 118; Isaiah 43:11, 45:21-23; Luke 20:1-17; 2 Corinthians 4:4-6; and Philippians 2:5-11. God uses the humility of the fishermen to bring 5000 men (with their families) to the LORD, and makes them “most wise” in their hour of trial.

Why does evangelism feel so difficult, and how can Christians grow in boldness when sharing the gospel? In this episode of Take Heart, Cory Wing explains that evangelism is not merely a method, personality type, or awkward religious duty, but the joyful proclamation of the good news that Jesus Christ reconciles sinners to God. Tracing God's missionary heart from Abraham to Israel, from the Gospels to the Great Commission, Cory encourages believers to trust the power of God's Word, pray for boldness, and begin with the lost people already around them.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >HereHere

This One Thing Part 3 - Boldness to Witness - Ap Allan Bagg by The Bay CFC

Jago Lopez | Acts 11:19-30 | 1. From Persecution to Boldness (19-21) 2. From Prejudice to Encouragement (22-26) 3. Facing Poverty with Generosity (27-30)

Message from Sam Paris on July 26, 2026

Being ashamed of the gospel is rarely about the gospel itself. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar examine why believers often shrink back from boldly identifying with Christ and how the fear of man quietly competes for the worship that belongs to God alone. The guys explain that shame is often rooted in idolatry, whether it is the desire for approval, the pursuit of success, or the fearof rejection. When acceptance from others takes the throne of the heart, faithfulness to Christ becomes increasingly difficult. Yet the gospel frees believers from living for the opinions of man and calls them to treasure Christ above every earthly idol.The guys emphasize that the world has always opposed God's truth, yet believers are still called to proclaim the gospel with compassion and courage. They reflect on faithful examples of Christians who patiently shared the gospel for years, reminding listeners that salvation belongs to the Lord and that no one is beyond His reach. Rather than letting fear silence them, believers are called to love people enough to speak the truth, trusting God to accomplish the work only He can do. Evangelism becomes an act of worship, flowing from gratitude for the grace believers have already received.The guys also discuss how believers overcome shame by fixing their eyes on Christ rather than on themselves. When idols are removed from the heart and replaced with a greater affection for God, the fear of people begins to lose its grip. They explain that remembering the gospel, meditating on eternity, and growing in love for Christ naturally produce boldness. Just as the disciples counted it an honor to suffer for the name of Jesus, Christians today are called to see opposition as an opportunity to identify with their Savior. The more believers treasure Christ, the less intimidating the world's opinions become.Finally, the guys offer practical encouragement to grow in confidence while sharing the gospel. Boldness develops through faithful obedience, regular study of Scripture, prayer, and consistent conversations with others. They encourage listeners not to wait until they have all the answers but to trust that God equips those who step forward faithfully. Even when believers struggle with fear or shame, Christ welcomes them with mercy and grace rather than condemnation. Ultimately, the guys remind listeners that the gospel is God's power for salvation, Christ is worthy of wholehearted devotion, and there is no greater privilege than making Him known to a world that desperately needs Him.Send us Fan MailThanks for listening!

Raising Expectations with Pastor Joe Schofield, Melba Schofield, Stefanie Thayer, Dr. Craig Thayer, Dr. Paul Hall, and Ron Greer Faith, Freedom, and the Fight for America The Raising Expectations team welcomes attorney, retired Army colonel, and author Kurt Schlichter for a wide-ranging discussion on faith, American leadership, cultural change, national security, education, civic responsibility, and the role Christians can play in shaping the nation's future. Friends, We are thrilled to have our longtime friend Kurt Schlichter back with us this Monday night, to share his wisdom and enthuse us all about our great nation! He is an outstanding author, political pungent, United States Army captain, teacher at the National War College in Washington D. C. and renown lawyer. He is a leading speaker on CPAC and highly respected for his ability to powerfully present the common sense and Judeo- Christian principals upon which we stand as a nation! His books are best sellers and “WE'LL BE BACK: the fall and rise of America” has made everyone think again as we watch America rise before our eyes with President Donald Trump and his incredible Cabinet! Boldness and appropriate transparency has aided in making us proud to be Americans once again! Kurt Schlichter has value driven conservative insights that are true and continue to inspire us as a nation! You won't want to miss the show so tell your friends and tune in and watch… Guest Spotlight Kurt Schlichter returns to Raising Expectations as a respected political commentator, attorney, retired U.S. Army colonel, and bestselling author known for combining military experience, legal insight, and cultural commentary. Throughout the conversation, Kurt discusses current events through the lenses of patriotism, faith, and public service while sharing perspectives drawn from his writing career, military background, and observations of American culture. Although the conversation covers numerous political topics, it repeatedly returns to the importance of personal responsibility, moral conviction, and active civic engagement. Faith, Freedom, and the State of the Nation Pastor Joe Schofield opens the program by reaffirming the show's commitment to faith in Jesus Christ, love for America, and confidence that God continues to work in the lives of those who trust Him. After introducing the panel and welcoming returning guest Kurt Schlichter, the conversation turns toward the current condition of the nation and the challenges facing American society. Kurt describes himself as optimistic about the country's future, arguing that many Americans have become dissatisfied with existing political and cultural institutions and are seeking meaningful change. The discussion establishes a hopeful yet candid tone as the panel explores leadership, public policy, and the responsibilities of citizenship from a Christian perspective. Leadership, Faith, and Public Service One of the conversation's earliest themes centers on political leadership and personal transformation. Kurt shares his view that President Donald Trump has pursued significant policy changes by challenging assumptions about what government can and cannot accomplish. Beyond politics, he also reflects on what he believes has been a noticeable change in Trump's personal faith following the assassination attempt against him, describing it as an example of how life-changing experiences can deepen spiritual awareness. The panel discusses the distinction between identifying with religion and developing an authentic relationship with God, emphasizing Bible reading, prayer, and continued spiritual growth over religious labels alone. Throughout the exchange, the speakers encourage listeners to pursue faith as a daily relationship rather than merely a public identity. Stories Shape Culture The discussion shifts toward Kurt's work as a novelist and his belief that culture is influenced not only through politics but also through storytelling. He introduces several of his books, including his upcoming novel American Warlord, and explains why he believes conservatives and Christians should actively create fiction, entertainment, and cultural works that reflect their values instead of simply criticizing existing media. Kurt argues that many ordinary Americans who work hard, raise families, practice their faith, and contribute positively to their communities are rarely represented in modern entertainment. For him, participating in culture is another way of preserving important values and broadening public conversation. Christians and Civic Responsibility The panel repeatedly returns to the role Christians play within American society. Pastor Joe expresses concern that many believers remain disengaged from public life or become informed only shortly before elections, while Kurt encourages greater participation in civic affairs. Rather than viewing political involvement as separate from faith, the speakers suggest that informed citizenship can become an extension of personal stewardship and responsibility. They discuss voting, public discourse, and the importance of remaining engaged in issues affecting local communities and the nation while seeking to act with integrity and conviction. Ideology, Media, and Competing Worldviews As the discussion broadens, Kurt shares his concerns about socialism, ideological movements, higher education, and parts of the modern media landscape. He argues that many people naturally seek purpose and meaning, and when religious faith is absent, they may replace it with political or cultural ideologies. The panel also discusses contemporary debates surrounding identity, entertainment, journalism, and public institutions, expressing concern that some voices discourage open dialogue or promote ideas they believe conflict with biblical values. Throughout these exchanges, the hosts frequently contrast cultural trends with what they view as enduring principles rooted in Christian faith and personal accountability. National Security and America's Place in the World Drawing upon his military experience, Kurt offers an extended discussion of American foreign policy, particularly regarding Iran, China, Russia, Ukraine, and broader geopolitical strategy. He explains how diplomatic, informational, military, and economic tools can work together to accomplish long-term strategic objectives, suggesting that effective leadership requires coordinating all four rather than relying solely upon military force. The panel also considers changing international alliances, energy policy, economic pressure, and global competition, viewing these developments through the broader lens of national security and America's future role on the world stage. Education, Skilled Trades, and the Dignity of Work Another major theme focuses on education and the changing value of higher learning. Kurt questions whether many universities continue to provide practical value, expressing concern about rising student debt, ideological influence, and the growing availability of alternative forms of learning. The panel discusses vocational education, skilled trades, apprenticeships, and technical careers, emphasizing that meaningful work should never be measured solely by academic credentials. Through stories about contractors, tradespeople, military service, and everyday professions, the conversation highlights the dignity of honest labor and the importance of respecting people for the quality of their work rather than their educational pedigree. Remembering the America That Built Community The discussion becomes more personal as Kurt reflects on his childhood in California, neighborhood friendships, books, television, family life, and the experiences that shaped previous generations. While acknowledging the benefits of technological advancement, including artificial intelligence, the panel also expresses concern that some aspects of community life, childhood independence, and shared cultural experiences have become more difficult to preserve. Rather than rejecting modern technology, the speakers encourage thoughtful use of new tools while continuing to cultivate strong families, meaningful relationships, and local communities. Standing for Truth with Courage As the conversation concludes, the panel returns to the role of Christians in an increasingly divided culture. Dr. Paul Hall expresses appreciation for Kurt's optimism and willingness to speak openly about difficult issues, while the hosts encourage believers to stand firmly for truth without fear or embarrassment. Pastor Ron Greer closes the program with a prayer asking for God's protection, wisdom, and continued guidance over Kurt, his family, and his work. The episode ends by reminding listeners that faith, courage, service, and hope remain essential qualities for those seeking to strengthen both their communities and their nation.

Edwin Colon Matthew 13:1-23

Ariyana Rimson teaches that disciple making is Christ's command beginning with submission to God (James 4:7). She urges executing Scripture—not personal opinion—resisting the enemy, and modeling a Christ-following life through teaching, Scripture-based advice, and accountability. Using her S.U.B.M.I.T. framework (Submit, Understand, Boldness, Mutual submission, Invitation, Temptation/pride), she shows how humility, community, and gospel-centered relationships transform lives, especially in her work with women in recovery.   Stay informed - Get our newsletter:  http://eepurl.com/hPViAr Get Discipleship.org's premium Podcast Feed: https://disciplemakerspodcast.supercast.com/  Check out the following eBooks from Discipleship.org: -- What Is Church?

Welcome to Be Bold for Jesus MinistriesOur mission is to equip believers to live boldly for Christ with discernment, obedience, andunwavering trust in God in a world increasingly built on temporary kingdoms and false securities.Today's MessageWhen Giants Fall: The Dangerous Illusion of Being UntouchableScripture: Jeremiah 50:1-46Babylon was the most powerful empire on earth, yet God declared that even this seeminglyinvincible kingdom would fall. Jeremiah 50 reminds us that every earthly kingdom eventually falls,but God's Kingdom stands forever.Key Takeaways• Giants fall when they forget God• Pride is often the hidden cause of destruction• Success becomes dangerous when it convinces us we no longer need God• False gods always make false promises• Every earthly kingdom eventually comes to an end• God's judgment is always balanced by His mercy• No sin is too great for God's forgiveness• Jesus Christ is the only unshakable foundationToday's ReminderBabylon looked unstoppable, but pride caused its downfall. Jeremiah 50 challenges us to ask whatwe are building our lives upon. Will we build on temporary kingdoms or on Christ? Through Jesus,our sins are forgiven, forgotten, and removed forever.Four Questions to Consider• Where is pride quietly taking root in my life?• What am I trusting besides Christ?• Is there something I've stopped believing God can forgive?• Which kingdom am I really building?Stay ConnectedSunday Sermons - Live on Zoom & FacebookWednesday Bible Study - He's The Solution Interactive DiscussionDaily Dose of BoldnessBe Bold for Jesus Conference 2026October 2-3, 2026BB4J.comGive at bebold4jesus.org

In Episode 191, we explore John 7:11-19 and the profound contrast between the crowd's fearful silence and Jesus' courageous boldness. The Jewish leaders are searching for Jesus at the festival, and the crowds are grumbling about Him. Some argue He's a good man. Others claim He's a fraud who deceives people. But notice what happens: no one has the courage to speak favorably about Him in public. Why? Because they're afraid of getting in trouble with the Jewish leaders. They're afraid of losing their standing. Fear silences truth. But then Jesus shows up. Midway through the festival, He goes to the Temple and begins to teach. And He speaks boldly—not apologetically, not carefully, not with one eye on the crowd's reaction. He speaks truth. Through guided meditation, discover the key to Jesus' boldness. He explains: "My message is not my own; it comes from God who sent me." Jesus isn't speaking to build His own reputation or win approval. He's speaking to honor God and do God's will. This is the crucial distinction Jesus makes: "Those who speak for themselves want glory only for themselves, but a person who seeks to honor the one who sent him speaks truth, not lies." When you speak your own message, you're protecting yourself, managing how people perceive you, afraid of consequences. But when you speak God's message, you're free. You're not trying to win approval. You're trying to honor God. The crowd remains silent because they're afraid. Jesus speaks because He's focused on something bigger than the crowd's approval—not because He's fearless, but because His mission transcends the need for human validation. This episode challenges you to examine what truths you've been silencing out of fear. What message from God are you too afraid to speak? What would it cost you to speak it? Learn how to distinguish between your own message and God's message, and why speaking God's truth requires releasing your grip on others' approval. Discover practical steps for identifying your fear, assessing whether it's bigger than your commitment to God, and finding the courage to speak truth to one trusted person today. Find the freedom that comes from honoring God instead of the crowd, and experience the boldness that flows from knowing your approval comes from God, not from people.

Did you pray till the answer came? In this devotion from Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster takes us back to the New Testament church in Acts chapter 4 (KJV) to show what happens when God's people get serious about prayer. The early church prayed, the place was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost. That same God is still listening today.You might be asking...- Does prayer really make a difference in my church?- What does it mean to "pray through" until the answer comes?- Why are prayer meetings so poorly attended, and does it matter?- How do I pray according to God's will and not just my own?Key points from this devotion:- The success of any ministry is in the prayers of the saints- Acts 4:31 shows a direct connection between prayer, Holy Spirit filling, and boldness- Prayer is not getting God to adjust to us — it is aligning ourselves to His will- Unity in the body follows genuine, corporate prayer- Revival always begins with people who are willing to prayIf this devotion stirred something in your heart, please like, leave a comment below, share this video with someone who needs encouragement, and subscribe so you never miss a word from the Word.#WordsFromTheWord #BibleDevotion #HolySpirit #KJV #GoodNewsBaptistChurchStay connected with GNBC:

In Acts 4, the religious leaders were astonished by two things: first, the miracle that had taken place; and second, the boldness of Peter and John. It is time for us to stand with that same boldness and declare the truth we know. The leaders recognised that these ordinary men had been with Jesus – and that made all the difference. Later in the same chapter, the disciples prayed, “Now, Lord, look upon their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word, while You stretch out Your hand to heal, and signs and wonders are performed through the name of Your holy servant Jesus.” What a powerful prayer! We should be praying like that today. Then, in verse 31, we read that after they had prayed, the place where they were gathered was shaken. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God with boldness. What an example for the Church today – that we would seek God's presence, be filled afresh with His Spirit, and boldly proclaim His Word, trusting Him to confirm it with His power.

Give Us Boldness-Pastor Kelly Wilde by Capital Church - Meridian, Idaho

Let us live boldly because we pray boldly and trust God completely.

When your heart is filled with anger, do you think to pray? In this Words From The Word daily devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster of Good News Baptist Church in Sint Maarten takes us into Acts 4:26-27, 29 and Hebrews 1:1 (KJV) to remind us that God sees everything we are going through — and that prayer is our first and best response.You might be asking — What do I do when anger takes over? Does God really see what I'm facing? Why does it matter to pray together as a church? Is prayer really enough when people are threatening me?Here are a few key points from today's devotion:- God is a self-revealing God — you don't have to prove He exists, He makes Himself known- The early church didn't pray for the threats to stop; they prayed for boldness to keep preaching- The all-seeing God sees every threat, every injustice, and every pain you carry- When anger rises, move away from what made you angry and go find the Lord in prayer- Corporate prayer encourages hearts in ways personal prayer cannot replaceDon't carry your anger, your fear, or your burdens alone. God is listening.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we wrapped up our weekly theme, "Living Free," focusing on being living dangerously Free. Dr. Sam Storms joined us to explore how the Holy Spirit empowers believers to live boldly for Christ. Looking at Acts 4, we discussed what it means to be filled with the Spirit, trust God’s sovereignty, and find the courage to proclaim the gospel faithfully. Dr. Storms is the founder and president of Enjoying God Ministries and serves on the Council of the Gospel Coalition.

Rather than shrinking back under pressure, the apostles boldly proclaim the gospel and demonstrate what it looks like to obey God above all else. In this verse-by-verse Bible study, we discuss: Peter and John's arrest by the religious leaders Peter's bold defense before the Sanhedrin Why believers must obey God rather than men The early church's prayer for boldness instead of comfort God answering their prayer by filling them with boldness The unity and generosity of the early church What bold, Spirit-filled Christianity looks like today Acts 4 reminds us that opposition to the gospel should never silence believers. Instead, the early church responded with prayer, courage, and unwavering commitment to proclaiming Christ.
