Let me ask you a question – is God still speaking to us here and now? Today? And if so – how? Well – what are the answers? If God is indeed still speaking, shouldn't we be listening? Imagine what a difference it could make, to know His will for our lives.   Is God Still Speaking? Now, here ... here is a question that these days, pretty much divides the church down the middle. Are you ready? Here it is: does God still speak today? Ooooh ... the controversy; the division that that little question creates, is huge. There are some who contend that the only way that God speaks today; the single only way is through the Bible. Read the Bible; that's God's Word; that's how He speaks. Then at the complete opposite end of the spectrum, you have Christians who claim to have seen signs and wonders; to have so called, "words of knowledge" and "prophesies" over their lives. I even know one man whose pastor constantly claims to have visions of Jesus. WOW man, what do you do with that? How do you understand that? And then there is little old you and me. If you are anything like me, deep inside there is a desire that burns for God – something that, well, it's hard to explain – a hunger after God Himself; a yearning that won't, that can't be satisfied by some dry, academic, cerebral answer to this question: does God still speak today? It won't be dismissed by shallow responses either. And nor will sensational claims quench the thirst after Christ Himself. And so that's why these coming weeks on the programme we are going to explore this question: does God still speak today? And if so, how? As I said, I ache to know God; to experience Him; to hear Him speak into my life. And I know that there are many, many more people on this earth who feel exactly the same. I want to live my life out completely for Him – everything I am, everything I have, all my hopes and all my dreams, to serve Him with the lot. And it's not because I'm some great guy – believe you me, I'm not. It's because I have tasted the sweetness of His love – the many splendored love of Christ, as A.W. Tozer calls it. I have tasted His goodness and His joy and His peace and do you know what – I want more! And so I want to hear Him speak because any relationship that means anything; that has any value to it is based on communication – and not one way communication, two way communication. A marriage is headed for divorce when there's a stony silence between husband and wife. If all that they do is communicate on a transactional basis, about the mundane things of life and they no longer communicate heart to heart, then friend, unless they do something about that, their marriage is headed for divorce. So the question is: Does God still speak? In my experience, He does, in a variety of ways. But experience ... experience isn't the "be all and the end all". We have emotions – they go up, they go down – sometimes we are on the top of our game, other times, frankly, let's be honest, we are off with the pixies. So whilst we may be experiencing God speaking through prophesy, through signs, through dreams ... all sorts of different ways, I believe with all my heart, the truth, God's chosen way of revealing Himself to us; providing us with a rock solid basis for understanding Him and understanding our experience, is His Word, this thing we call the Bible. Inspired by Him, written through human beings, for sure – each of the sixty six books of the Bible, written in different times in history, under different circumstances, for specific purposes but together those sixty six books are the inspired Word of God – God speaking to the generations that have gone before us and to us and the generations that will come after us. And God never contradicts Himself. He never says one thing and does the other. God is the same yesterday, today and forever. So if any one, whether it's you or me, claims to have heard from God in a certain way, then the question is: does the Bible say that that is how God communicates with us? Because if it doesn't, then friend, at the very, very least, I am very, very suspicious that this person has indeed heard from God. And secondly, if this person claims to have heard from God and acts on it or shares what God has allegedly said to him or to her, is the message consistent with the Word of God – the whole council of God? Because if God says one thing and some so called, "prophet" comes up with a so called, "revelation" that contradicts God's Word, then forget it. It ain't God talking! Does that make sense? When we step into the realm of God speaking with us about specific things happening in our lives or in the lives of other people, then we are stepping into territory which is rich and fertile on the one hand – if God is indeed speaking. I for one would want to hear but on the other hand, it's open to manipulation and to error. This approach is summed up in this Biblical principle – it comes from First Thessalonians chapter 5, verses 19 to 22. Have a listen – it says: Do not quench the Spirit. Do not despise the words of prophets, but test everything; hold fast to what is good; abstain from every form of evil. In other words, don't ignore God speaking through His Spirit. Don't despise the words of prophets, but at the same time, sift it; test it – hold onto the good, ditch the evil. So, is God still speaking? Absolutely! This is what Jesus said: John chapter 10, beginning at verse 1: Truly, I tell you, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate but climbs in by another way is a thief and a bandit. The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and – listen to this - the sheep hear his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and he leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice. They will not follow a stranger, but they will run from him because they do not know the voice of strangers. Again John 15:26: When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who comes from the Father, he will testify on my behalf. And again, John 16:14: He will glorify me, because he will take what is mine and declare it to you. Is God in the business of still speaking to His people through His Spirit today? Absolutely! That's exactly what Jesus promised would happen – over and over and over again. It's promised in the Bible. But as we read back in First Thessalonians – whilst the Spirit is at work, speaking, declaring and we shouldn't quench what He is doing. When people claim to be speaking on God's behalf, then we had better test it to make sure that it's from God. And I guess that's at the very heart of what we are going to be talking about over the coming weeks – discovering how to hear God speak into our lives. It's powerful stuff!   The Word of God I remember when I first gave my life to Jesus – I had such an incredibly strong sense of God's presence. He wrapped His arms around me during a particularly difficult and painful time in my life and yet I was full of the joy of the Lord. And a dear friend of mine, Phil, the pastor of the first church I attended sat me down over a coffee and he said to me, "You know Berni, it's not always going to feel as good as this." And whilst in one sense, he was right, there was something inside me – well, it made me angry. I thought to myself and I said this to God, "If I can't have a close, intimate relationship with my God, each day; if I can't experience His joy and His peace, each day, then you know something, Lord, I don't think I want You." It's pretty radical stuff! And to be sure life has had its ups and downs. Sometimes circumstances are against us and sometimes everything is rosy. Sometimes our emotions are up and sometimes they are down. In those early days of becoming a Christian, they told me; Phil told me that I should read my Bible every day. Can I tell you what a turn off that was? Can I tell you what a burden it was to think that I would have to open this old, stuffy Book; this huge Book; seven hundred and seventy five thousand words, thirty one thousand, one hundred and seventy three verses, one thousand, one hundred and eighty nine chapters in sixty six Books. Written in times and places and cultures that were completely unfamiliar to me. Who or what, for instance, is Ephraim? And why was everyone sacrificing bulls and goats and doves and stuff? You get the drift! But Phil, my pastor, was a persuasive guy – real salt of the earth kind of guy and when I listened to him preaching on Sundays he made an enormous amount of sense to me. So I did something back then – I established this pattern of getting up early in the morning; something I have been doing since I was a small child anyway, because I am an early riser – while everyone is still asleep – and spending some time in prayer and reading the Bible. I was surprised – God's Word made a lot of sense. A lot of it was confronting – it was like shining a really bright light on my own immaturities and the things I was doing that weren't pleasing God. And day after day, month after month, year after year, here's what has happened to me – it's changed me. I open the Bible these days and it is God speaking to me. Now there aren't fireworks and clashes of thunder and great amazing revelations each and every day – it's not like that. Little by little, God's Word has become part of who I am. I'm not good at memorising verses – some people are - I'm just not. But what I find amazing now is that when someone asks me to get up and speak about something or we are having a discussion amongst friends about this issue or that, the recall that God has given me over His Word, is amazing. I can remember the things that God says – maybe no word for word, but pretty close – and where He says it and that makes all the difference. When someone is really bugging me and I want to tear them apart, all of a sudden the Holy Spirit says to me, “Turn the other cheek!” And wisdom from above is pure and peaceable and gentle and willing to yield and all of a sudden, God's Word is guiding my behaviour. God's Word is giving me what I need to live my life. The Holy Spirit speaks His Word right into my life when I need it. And the other thing is – sounds really mundane reading the Bible every day and I guess it is. I tend to read an Old Testament Book followed by a New Testament Book – one of the Letters, from Romans to Revelation, followed by one of the four Gospels and Acts. It's kind of how I cycle through the Bible. And I have pretty much read it all now, several times. The reason I cycle is that the different Books feed me in different ways. Some of those Old Testament narratives – the Judges and Kings and Chronicle Books – they feed me with the power and the majesty of God's faithfulness. And then the Letters in the New Testament – they teach me about real life and understanding life, in light of what Jesus has done. And then the Gospels and the Book of Acts – they take me back to the heart of my faith in Jesus. And then some of the wisdom Books in the Old Testament – Proverbs, Psalms, Lamentations – I sprinkle them throughout and it's like adding salt to everything else. And as I read through, bit by bit, I can't begin to tell you how many times I have found exactly what I need for today – the things I am going through or the things unbeknown to me that are going to confront me later on today. It's amazing how many times God has given me what I need for today from those very next few verses, in the next chapter that I was due to read. Reading the Bible sounds like a chore – it sounds mundane but the strength and the maturity and the growth and the transformation; the things that have so made my life better – I can't begin to tell you. They have come from this wonderful habit that Phil taught me all those years ago - the ability to discern whether someone else is speaking for God or not – the wisdom to know how to handle tough situations – the maturity to lay down my life. That's hard, boy, it's hard some days. All those things have come as the Word of God has become part of who I am. Genesis chapter 1, verse 26 tells us that we have been made in God's image. Problem is, our rebellion; our sin has marred that image. And reading God's Word most days, listening to what He has to say most days, is like being restored back into His original image. It's a repair job here; a cleanup job there; a new bit here ... and all of a sudden we become a different person. It is knowing the truth that sets us free and the Bible is God's way of speaking with us. If there is one thing ... just one thing that I could point to as the smartest thing that I have ever done, after giving my life to Jesus, it's opening up the Bible – that daily habit – and letting God speak His Word into my heart through His Spirit. And the tragedy is that so many people ... the people who don't do that are the very ones whose lives are all over the place because there is no foundation; there is no anchor into God's truth.   The Time of Prayer Earlier we saw that one of the main ways that God speaks to us ... in fact, THE main way is through His Word, the Bible and it's an awesome thing. And as I said back then, the simple habit of reading God's Word, even if it is just a few verses, every day, has utterly changed my life. But that's only one side of the coin in my daily time with God - because the other side of the coin is prayer. There's an amazing contradiction that so many people are living out in their lives – people who believe in Jesus. Here's how it goes: on the one hand these people really would love to hear God's voice; they would really like to know that He is there with them, that He has some practical words of wisdom for them, some guidance on the decisions they need to take – that's on the one hand. And yet these, so often, are the very same people who are too busy to sit down for twenty minutes, half an hour, maybe even forty five minutes or an hour, most days, to spend that time in prayer with God. Too busy, too busy, too busy! Well, fair enough, I know all about that! See, I'm one of these busy type "A", action oriented people – we're more focused on doing things and getting outcomes than on spending time on relationships. So anyone who says to me, ‘I'm just too busy to pray', well, I really understand; I really relate to that. But the problem that comes out of that is that we head off into our day and we confront all the issues and tensions and decisions and all that stuff – we are so immersed in it all – and then right in the middle of it, we think, "Ah, where's God? Why is God talking to me? Why isn't God guiding me? Why isn't God comforting me?" Well, I'll tell you, friend! God was waiting for you this morning; He was waiting for you to get still before Him, to spend some time with Him reading His Word the Bible, listening to what He has to say and then chatting with Him in prayer. Have a listen to this Psalm – it is one of my absolute favourites – Psalm 46: God is our refuge and our strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change, though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea; though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble with its tumult. There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High. God is in the midst of the city; it will not be moved; God will help it when the morning dawns. The nations are in an uproar, the kingdoms totter; he utters his voice and the earth melts. The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Come, behold the works of the Lord; see what desolations he has brought on the earth. He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth; he breaks the bow, he shatters the spear; he burns the shields with fire. Be still, and know that I am God! I am exalted among the nations. I am exalted in the earth.” The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Powerful truth in verse 1 is that God is our refuge and our strength in the middle of all this mess. You don't have to be afraid – if the mountains are shaking, if they are falling into the sea, if there is calamity, there's upheaval, there's uproar – that's the picture in the Psalm. The sorts of things that we go through in the rough and tumble of life – we don't have to be afraid! Why? Because there's a stream flowing right through the heart of our city that makes us glad. The nations may well be in an uproar but God is God above all and when He speaks the earth melts before Him. Now, that's a great theory but when we are in the middle of this calamitous uproar; when tensions are running high at work; when we are hard pressed on every side; when we are running through life at a hundred miles an hour, how are we meant to experience this river of joy from God? How are we meant to hear Him and know Him and not be afraid because of Him when all this stuff is flying through the air? Well, the answer comes to us in verse 10 of this Psalm: Be still and know that I am God. Isn't that beautiful! Just ... with all that stuff going on ... just be still and know in your heart of hearts that your God is God; that your God is in control. I don't care who the relationship is with, if we don't take time away from the hustle and bustle, just to connect, just to spend time together, just to talk – whether it's husband and wife or work colleagues or friends – if we don't do that, then the hustle and bustle is going to distract us from the reality of the relationship with that other person. We forget, in our experience, how wonderful the love of our husbands or wives is; we forget the joy of a friendship because our dominant reality; the thing we are focused on is the busyness and the battle of life. And friend, if we want to know that God is in control, we need to get still before Him and just KNOW! It's as simple as that! That's what prayer is – getting still before God. Here's how it so often works for me: I pray a bit and I ask God to speak with me. Then I open the Bible and I read the next bit I was going to read; the next chapter in Luke's Gospel or whatever and in reading that, the Spirit of God speaks to me through God's Word. I get this sense that God is up to something here but then I need to chew it over so I pray about it and I ask God, ‘What are You saying to me?' I think about it, I get still, I listen and that's the place where God so often speaks, with a word of reassurance, with some specific guidance or direction. I had that happen this morning, in fact. I had a difficult situation; some difficult decisions to make and after spending time in God's Word and thinking and praying and listening, well, the answer was as plain as the nose on my face. So often I'm confronted with a "to do" list longer than my arm – I can't possibly get it all done today. "God, what is Your priority? What do You want me to do today?" And that's where the most important things drop into my lap, so I go and I do those ones. It's a gift from God. Friend, so many people's lives are in a mess. "I want to hear God speak!" Well, let's get still before God; let's spend time with God. If we want to hear God speak right into the middle of the realities of our lives, we need to get still before Him. Let's get a revelation today! I know your life is busy – mine is too. But if we start spending fifteen minutes, twenty minutes a day, quietly, all the distractions gone, the doors closed, the Bible open – time in prayer; God shows up. He loves spending time with us. He loves it when we set time apart for Him. And frankly, if you are struggling to hear from God but you are not making time to spend with Him, this message today, is for you. Start spending time just with Him and little by little He will start speaking. Day by day, we will learn better how to recognise His voice. Little bit by little bit we will get guidance about things for today and things for tomorrow and things that we need to lay down. Jesus said, "The shepherd speaks and the sheep hear His voice.” In my experience, sometimes in my prayer times over the years I have misheard God but the longer I spend at this, the more discerning I am and the more easily I am able to recognise the voice of my Shepherd.

Episode: Summer Tarot Series with Jennifer Doman Host: Terri Ann Heiman Guest: Jennifer Doman, Owner of Ritual and Shelter Episode Sponsor: Ritual and Shelter Recording Location: San Diego, California   Episode Overview In this enlightening episode of The Empowered Spirit Show's summer tarot series, host Terri Ann Heiman sits down with Jennifer Doman, the inspiring owner of Ritual and Shelter metaphysical store in Homewood, Alabama. This conversation explores the transformative power of tarot, the journey of spiritual awakening, and how a metaphysical business can serve as a healing sanctuary for the community. Jennifer shares her personal journey from chronic pain to healing through Reiki, her evolution as a tarot reader, and the unexpected discoveries about autism and telepathic abilities that have shaped her understanding of spiritual communication. The episode offers valuable insights for both tarot beginners and experienced practitioners, while highlighting the importance of creating safe spaces for spiritual exploration and healing.   Guest Biography: Jennifer Doman Jennifer Doman is a Reiki Master Teacher and the visionary owner of Ritual and Shelter, a metaphysical store and healing sanctuary located in Homewood, Alabama. Her journey into holistic healing began through personal necessity after undergoing multiple back surgeries that failed to provide relief from chronic pain. Through her exploration of alternative healing methods, Jennifer discovered the transformative power of Reiki, which not only healed her physical pain but ignited a passion for helping others find similar relief. In 2021, Jennifer successfully obtained her Reiki Master Teacher certification and has since developed a unique approach that combines Reiki healing with complementary practices including energy healing, crystal healing, sound healing, and intuitive healing. Her personal experience with trauma and pain has enabled her to create a deeply empathetic and effective healing practice. Jennifer's spiritual journey has recently expanded to include a profound understanding of autism and telepathic abilities, following her own diagnosis and exploration of the connections between neurodivergence and spiritual gifts. She specializes in working with autistic individuals and their families, helping them understand and develop their unique spiritual abilities. Specialties: •Reiki for pain and trauma •Tarot reading with chakra-based approach •Crystal and energy healing •Supporting neurodivergent individuals in spiritual development •Creating inclusive spiritual community spaces Key Topics Discussed 1. The Tarot Journey: Finding Your Deck Jennifer shares her experience of choosing her first tarot deck and the importance of artwork resonating with the reader. She discusses the challenge of learning with her first deck (Pagan of the World's Tarot) and how switching to the Rider-Waite-Smith system accelerated her learning process. Key Insights: •Artwork must speak to you personally for effective deck connection •The Rider-Waite-Smith system provides clear, descriptive imagery for beginners •Each deck has its own personality and delivers different types of messages •Learning tarot is a long-term journey that requires patience and practice 2. Reading Philosophy: Projection vs. Prediction Jennifer explains her approach to tarot reading, emphasizing energy work and healing over fortune-telling. She describes her unique method of reading through the chakra system and how this approach provides more meaningful guidance for clients. Key Insights: •Focus on projection (energy reading) rather than prediction •Seven-card chakra spread as a comprehensive reading method •Tarot as a tool for identifying trauma, grief, and emotional blocks •Integration of Reiki energy during readings for enhanced healing 3. Building a Metaphysical Business During COVID The conversation explores Jennifer's journey of opening Ritual and Shelter during the pandemic, transforming from a women's wellness store to a full metaphysical sanctuary. She discusses the challenges and rewards of creating a spiritual community space in conservative Alabama. Key Insights: •Community need drove business evolution •Customers seeking crystals and tarot sustained the business during COVID •Importance of trauma-informed approaches in spiritual retail •Creating safe spaces for spiritual exploration and healing 4. The Witch Archetype and Feminine Empowerment Jennifer courageously discusses claiming the witch identity and what it represents in terms of feminine empowerment, rebellion against societal constraints, and standing up for personal rights. Key Insights: •Witch as archetype of empowered feminine energy •Reclaiming power and refusing to be diminished •The importance of not "playing small" in spiritual work •Balancing controversial identity with love-based practice   5. Autism, Telepathy, and Spiritual Gifts A profound discussion about Jennifer's recent autism diagnosis and her discoveries about the connection between neurodivergence and telepathic abilities, particularly in nonverbal autistic individuals. Key Insights: •Reference to "Telepathy Tapes" podcast and its revelations •Autistic individuals may have enhanced telepathic abilities •Children with autism drawn to specific crystals for healing •Connection between neurodivergence and star seed/galactic energies Memorable Quotes On Choosing Tarot Decks "The artwork must speak to you. If you want to resonate with that deck and you want to get messages from that deck, you must resonate with the artwork. It must speak to you. You have to like it." - Jennifer Doman On Reading Philosophy "I typically do not like it for prediction because I know that we can change every circumstance. So I am reading tarot based on energy." - Jennifer Doman On Spiritual Communication "Those cards are universe speaking through me... it is almost comical how often I pull those cards and it reflects exactly what we've just been talking about." - Jennifer Doman On Self-Healing with Tarot "When you're just reading tarot like it's a book and just looking at those messages, what does this card represent in myself? Right now, it's automatically a healing session for yourself." - Jennifer Doman On Feminine Empowerment "The witch represents this sort of female rage. And I think we need that so bad right now... when you say I'm a witch, it says, I'm not gonna let somebody just walk over me anymore." - Jennifer Doman On Playing Small "You're playing small. Stop it... why do I play small to fit in? I never fit in... I'm not gonna fit in." - Terri Ann Heiman On Spiritual Awakening "There is a spiritual responsibility to our souls, to ourself, to upgrade our energy and recognize a vibration with which we work with every single day." - Terry Ann Hyman Actionable Takeaways For Tarot Beginners 1.Choose Your Deck Mindfully: Select a tarot deck based on artwork that genuinely resonates with you, not just popularity or recommendations 2.Start with Rider-Waite-Smith: Begin your learning journey with a Rider-Waite-Smith based deck for clear, descriptive imagery 3.Practice Self-Reading: Use your tarot deck like a book for self-reflection, asking "What does this card represent in myself right now?" 4.Be Patient with Learning: Expect a learning curve of several months to feel comfortable with your deck   For Spiritual Practice 1.Focus on Energy, Not Prediction: Use tarot for understanding current energy patterns rather than trying to predict the future 2.Try Chakra Spreads: Experiment with seven-card chakra spreads to understand energy blocks and healing needs 3.Combine Modalities: Integrate tarot with other healing practices like Reiki, crystal work, or meditation 4.Trust Your Intuition: Pay attention to intuitive hits and messages, even if they seem unusual or unexpected   For Personal Empowerment 1.Stop Playing Small: Embrace your authentic spiritual path without shrinking to fit others' expectations 2.Create Sacred Space: Establish environments where spiritual exploration and healing can occur safely 3.Support Spiritual Community: Seek out and support local metaphysical businesses and practitioners 4.Embrace Your Archetype: Understand and embody the spiritual archetypes that resonate with your authentic self   For Parents and Caregivers 1.Observe Crystal Connections: Notice if children, especially neurodivergent children, are drawn to specific crystals or spiritual tools 2.Explore Alternative Communication: Consider that nonverbal individuals may have enhanced telepathic or intuitive abilities 3.Lower Your Energy: Practice calming techniques to create space for subtle spiritual communication   Resources and Links Ritual and Shelter •Website: ritualshelter.com •Instagram: @ritualshelter_shop •Pinterest: Ritual Plus Shelter •Location: Homewood, Alabama •Services: Tarot sessions, Reiki, Sound Bowl healing, Crystal healing, Witch consultations   Tarot Decks Mentioned •Pagan of the World's Tarot - Jennifer's first deck •Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot - Recommended for beginners •Dreaming Moon Tarot - Australian artist, beautiful Rider-Waite-Smith variation •Somnia Tarot by Nicholas Bruno - Based on sleep paralysis dreams, Jennifer's current favorite •Wild Unknown Tarot by Kim Krans - Mentioned for artistic evolution •Empowered Spirit Deck by Terri Ann Heiman - Host's tarot deck   Books and Learning Resources •"78 Degrees of Wisdom" - Recommended tarot learning book •Terri Ann Heiman's Tarot Course - Mentioned as a valuable learning resource •Telepathy Tapes Podcast - Referenced for autism and telepathy research   Host's Offerings •5-Day Summer Bootcamp for Emotional Eating (July 22-26) •Focus on Gap tapping™ technique •Addresses cravings, binging, body image, and "fat talk" •VIP option available for deeper one-on-one work •Gap Tapping Technique - Method for bridging the gap between where you are and where you want to be   Spiritual and Healing Modalities Discussed •Reiki Healing - Energy healing for pain and trauma •Crystal Healing - Using crystals for energetic support •Sound Bowl Healing - Vibrational healing therapy •Chakra Balancing - Seven-energy-center healing approach •Intuitive Healing - Psychic and empathic healing methods   Current Astrological Context (as of recording) •Full Moon in Capricorn - Recently passed, supporting grounding and growth •Mercury Retrograde - July 17th through August, in Cancer and Leo •Potential for emotional reflection and relationship changes •Mindfulness is needed for travel, communication, and technology

STORY OF AMERICA - Experienced seaman Samuel Champlain joined the crew aboard the ‘Saint-Julien’ on his first Trans-Atlantic crossing, while in his early thirties. This journey lasted two years and gave Champlain the opportunity to learn about Spanish holdings from the Caribbean to Mexico City. Along the way, he took detailed notes, wrote an illustrated report on what he learned on this trip, and gave this secret account—entitled ‘Narrative of a Voyage to the West Indies and Mexico 1599 to 1601’—to his King, Henry the fourth, who rewarded Champlain with an annual pension. In 1603, King Henry IV wanted the French to begin settling in the New World in hopes that wealth could be brought back to France. So he sent an expedition to locate a place on the American continent to establish a colony and fur trade settlement. Although he held no official title at the time, Samuel de Champlain would be among the men who would take part in this great venture.

Don't Let Him In by Lisa Jewell He's the perfect man. It's a perfect lie. Nina Swann is intrigued when she received a condolence card from Nick Radcliffe, an old friend of her late husband, who is looking to connect after her husband's unexpected death. Nick is a man of substance and good taste. He has a smile that could melt the coldest heart and a knack for putting others at ease. But to Nina's adult daughter, Ash, Nick seems too slick, too polished, too good to be true. Without telling her mother, Ash begins digging into Nick's past. What she finds is more than unsettling… Martha is a florist living in a neighboring town with her infant daughter and her devoted husband, Alistair. But lately, Alistair has been traveling more and more frequently for work, disappearing for days at a time. When Martha questions him about his frequent absences, he always has a legitimate explanation, but Martha can't share the feeling that something isn't right. Nina, Martha, and Ash are on a collision course with a shocking truth that is far darker than anyone could have imagined. And all three are about to wish they had heeded the same warning: Don't let him in. But the past won't stay buried forever. The Phoenix Pencil Company by Alison King Monica Tsai spends most days on her computer, journaling the details of her ordinary life and coding for a program that seeks to connect strangers online. A self-proclaimed recluse, she's always struggled to make friends and, as a college freshman, finds herself escaping into a digital world, counting the days until she can return home to her beloved grandparents. They are now in their nineties, and Monica worries about them constantly—especially her grandmother, Yun, who survived two wars in China before coming to the States, and whose memory has begun to fade. Though Yun rarely speaks of her past, Monica is determined to find the long-lost cousin she was separated from years ago. One day, the very program Monica is helping to build connects her to a young woman, whose gift of a single pencil holds a surprising clue. Monica's discovery of a hidden family history is exquisitely braided with Yun's own memories as she writes of her years in Shanghai, working at the Phoenix Pencil Company. As WWII rages outside their door, Yun and her cousin, Meng, learn of a special power the women in their family possess: the ability to Reforge a pencil's words. But when the government uncovers their secret, they are forced into a life of espionage, betraying other people's stories to survive. Combining the cross-generational family saga and epistolary form of A Tale for the Time Being with the uplifting, emotional magic of The Midnight Library, Allison King's stunning debut novel asks: who owns and inherits our stories? The answers and secrets that surface on the page may have the unerasable power to reconnect a family and restore a legacy. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tudor monarchs didn't just sit on thrones—they moved with them. In this special interview, historian Carol Ann Lloyd joins me to explore the world of Tudor progresses: the royal road trips that brought the court (and the mess) to towns across England. We chat about:Why Henry VII hit the road just months after becoming kingHow nobles went bankrupt trying to impress Elizabeth IThe epic disaster of Henry VIII's progress with Catherine HowardRobert Dudley's full-blown 1575 Kenilworth Proposal-palooza (mermaids! fireworks! matching portraits!)And yes—mud, plague, and poop logistics.It's part political strategy, part royal flex, and 100% fascinating.

In this episode of Home Business Profits, Ray Higdon explores how to build confidence in sales by taking action and cultivating courage. He explains that confidence is a result of consistent effort and practice, not a pre-existing trait. Ray emphasizes the importance of reach-outs and prospecting over passive marketing for building sales confidence. He shares personal experiences and practical examples, urging listeners to focus on direct actions, such as asking prospects about their interest in products or services. Ray also integrates faith principles and discusses his book, Faith Driven Wealth, which helps in identifying an anointed brand. For additional resources, he offers a cold market reach-out system and encourages listeners to read specific chapters of his book. ——

In this episode, Tim chats with psychologist and theologian Richard Beck about his book The Shape of Joy, which explores the idea that much of modern misery stems from a life turned inward—and that joy comes when we shift our attention beyond ourselves. Drawing on ancient theology, modern psychology, and lived experience, Richard challenges the dominance of a belief-centric, self-focused faith and invites us into a more outward-facing spirituality. He unpacks the difference between therapeutic introspection and the kind of excessive rumination that often leaves us stuck, and offers a vision of spiritual practices that open us to the world, to others, and to the divine. After the interview, Nomad hosts Tim and Anna reflect on how Richard's insights resonate with their own journeys—particularly their experiences of rumination, mental health, the role of spiritual practices, and the inward/outward tension in modern life.

Is deliverance enough? In any journey of spiritual freedom, deliverance is often viewed as a quick fix, but true liberation requires much more than a "quicky deliverance" session! It's essential to understand that while casting out demons is a vital step, it is not the end-all of the multi-layered and complicated process of releasing strongholds. Healing and ministering to an individual, with gentleness, plays a crucial role in your transformative journey. Without addressing the deep-rooted wounds and trauma within a wounded soul, individuals may find themselves trapped in a vicious cycle of recurring patterns. Embrace the wisdom that healing is just as important as deliverance. Allow yourself the grace and time to confront and heal from the past without judgment!

For a 10% discount on Rabbi David Ashear's new book LIVING EMUNAH VOL 8 click the link below https://www.artscroll.com/Books/9781422644645.html The pasuk says at the beginning of this week's parasha that Balak saw all that Yisrael did to the Emorim and he became afraid. Rav Moshe Sternbuch asked, why did Balak become afraid specifically from the Jew beating the Emorim ? They had done much greater things before this which should have caused Balak to become afraid of them, like obliterating the Mitzrim or Kriyat Yam Suf . The Rabbi quoted from the Kli Yakar who answered, what Yirsrael did to the Emorim is referring to a different episode, namely when Yaakov Avinu, whose name is also Yisrael, defeated the Emorim with his tefilot back in parashat Vayechi , before Yetziat Mitzrayim . Balak said to himself, if the Jews can take down an entire nation using their prayers, how are we going to stand up to them? This is why he hired Bilaam, who also had powers with his mouth. Later on in the parasha , when Bilaam blessed the Jewish People, he was in awe of how they wake up every morning like lions to grab mitzvot , putting on tallit and tefillin and reciting keriyat shema . These are our greatest treasures. The more we use the power of our mouths for good, the more blessing will come down from Hashem. Rabbi Elimelech Biderman related a story that a rabbi from New York told him. The rabbi said this past year around Hanukah time, he read an amazing story about an older boy who was having a lot of difficulty finding his zivug. Baruch Hashem, this year, that boy got engaged on Thursday night, the 11 th of Kislev. At his engagement, his younger ten year old brother showed him a piece of paper which had written on it, Today the 21 st of Cheshvan, year 5781, Saturday night, I, so and so, accept upon myself to say kriyat shema looking inside the siddur and having kavana in each word in the merit that my brother gets engaged by the 11 th of Kislev . And that's exactly what happened. He said shema every night the way he's supposed to and his brother got engaged on the 11 th of Kislev. The rabbi in New York got so excited after reading this story, he related it to his own family at the Shabbat table that week. He also had an older son not married and he also has a ten year old son. When his ten year old heard that story, he accepted upon himself on Rosh Chodesh Shevat the same kabbala . He wrote on a piece of paper, For 30 days, I will say kriyat shema al hamita from a siddur the right way in the zechut that my brother gets engaged. On the 30 th night, that young boy fell asleep without saying shema . The next morning, when he realized what happened, he started to cry. He told his father that he took on this kabbala and did it for 29 days in a row but then missed it last night. His father told him not to worry, it didn't hurt his kabbala . He said, "You accepted 30 days and you did 29 of them." The father then told his son to do the last day that night and it will still count. Amazingly, the very next day, on the 2 nd of Adar, 31 days from the time this boy made his kabbala , which was also the day he finished his 30 days, his brother got engaged. We have tremendous powers with our mouths. We can say kind words to others, we can read Tehillim , we can learn Torah, we can pray to Hashem. These are our strengths. This is what Balak feared, and this is what Bilaam knew was our secret. Let us utilize these precious gifts that Hashem gave us and do them all the right way.

And a lot of people get this very confused. You don't have to be successful to be a high achiever.” “A healthy mind is like a mansion … big open space, private rooms … If something happens and you can't deal with it, you put it in a room and close the door. Later, you open it, bring it out, and process it. A healthy mind knows when to suppress and when to process.” “You can't lead others unless you take care of yourself. You're not going to lead anyone if you die of a heart attack. You have to have integrity with yourself, learn how to be honest with yourself, and know where you need help, where you need to work, and where you need to grow.” “Your life is determined by what you believe… If you believe that you've got something great in you that needs to be shared, then there's something great in you that needs to be shared.” “People die every day because they don't know that their chronic illness is tied to their traumatic events.” “There's a difference between thinking something and believing something.” “Don't get coached by somebody who isn't being coached.” “It's very easy to feel like you're alone as an entrepreneur, especially if you're not surrounded by them.” “Don't pretend to be something you're not.” BOOKS MENTIONED: Letting Go, Finding You: Uncover Your Truest Self through the Enneagram and Contemplation by Hunter Mobley (https://a.co/d/eOuafdq) The Discovery Of The Unconscious by Henri F.
