Brett discovered wood carving in 2019 and has been hooked ever since.Alongside spoon carving, Brett also makes kuksas and has even built his own pole lathe, teaching himself how to turn bowls.We talk about how he got started, what it's like carving in a place with harsh winter conditions, how the craft fits into family life, and his hopes of sharing and introducing greenwood carving to others in the future.I enjoyed our conversation, and  I hope you enjoy listening!If you would like to support this podcast and help them to continue, you can do that by buying an Endless Possibilities spoon-carving T-shirt at: https://roots-movement.com/rootsspoonsHosted by Simon Pouly @rootsspoons (https://www.instagram.com/rootsspoons/)Editing and Producing: Julia Pouly Music: PixabaySupport the show

Moving abroad isn't exclusive to retirees and 25-year-olds; many Americans from all walks of life are considering leaving the United States. Richer culture, affordable healthcare, and a higher quality of life are among the key reasons Americans are moving to Europe. In the current climate, expats need to choose a country that suits their lifestyle and financial goals.   In this episode of We're The Brits In America, Richard Taylor – dual UK/US citizen and Chartered Financial Planner – decodes the migration process with Brett Andrews – Co-founder of Expatsi. Acquiring European residency can be confusing, but some countries offer multiple pathways, including student, digital nomad, and retirement visas. Many of these options depend on the applicant's financial stability, raising an important question: how are American expats preparing and positioning themselves for their big move? Richard and Brett unpack:  The lifestyle differences between the US and Europe. The requirements and benefits of various visa pathways. Solutions to the most common barriers Americans face when relocating. How to navigate the emotional and logistical challenges of moving abroad. More about We're The Brits In America: With the right financial advice, landmines that threaten expat wealth can be avoided. Often encountered by US-connected expats, these financial landmines are more numerous, more hazardous, and less understood than almost anywhere else in the world. As a result, non-cross border professionals, wealth advisors, and even international advisors are often unaware of them. But don't worry, We're The Brits In America has you covered.  We're The Brits In America is dedicated to helping ambitious US-connected expats and immigrants navigate those challenges — and thrive. Whether you've moved to the US for opportunity, or are an American seeking adventure and growth abroad, our job is to equip you with the tools and insights you need to succeed.

Get early access to all of the 2025 RENEW Gathering Breakout Tracks: https://reallifetheologypodcast.supercast.com/  Visit RENEW.org for great resources on Disciple Making and Theology.  Today's episode will help us understand the foundational principles and strategies for effective church planting, emphasizing reliance on divine guidance, addressing challenges, and ensuring doctrinal soundness for sustainable growth. In this episode of "Church Planting," the speaker delves into the foundational principles and motivations for starting new churches. The central theme revolves around reliance on divine guidance, as captured by Psalm 127:1, emphasizing that unless the Lord builds the house, labor is in vain. The speaker reinforces the need for absolute confidence in Jesus to build the church, highlighting that human effort alone is insufficient without divine support. The discussion transitions to the "why" of church planting, rooted in addressing the lostness of people akin to sheep without a shepherd. This point is emphasized with personal anecdotes, such as observing aimless shoppers at Wegmans and Vince Antonucci's transformation from a non-Christian skeptic to a passionate church planter motivated by his previous lostness. The speaker also acknowledges the significant challenges faced in church planting, such as feelings of unfruitfulness, betrayal, and scarcity of resources. He cites the importance of resilience and God's calling to reach lost people as the sustaining force during tough times. The narrative shifts to historical insights from the Book of Acts, illustrating the explosive growth of the early church through continuous discipleship and church planting, moving from addition to multiplication. The episode then explores the critical aspects of ensuring the health and doctrinal soundness of new churches. The speaker warns against the dangers of doctrinal drift and the potential for churches to adopt popular but unbiblical stances. This concern leads into a detailed explanation of the Renew Movement's approach to church planting, emphasizing sound theology, disciple-making, and structured support systems like assessment, training, and coaching. The Renew Movement aims to catalyze a church planting movement of healthy churches, overcoming common fears such as scarcity of resources, lack of expertise, and long-term health. The discussion underscores the importance of ordinary churches becoming church planting churches, challenging the notion that only large, resource-rich congregations can plant churches. The Renew Movement's unique strategy involves collaborative partnerships among churches—both large and small—to support new plants. This model includes financial contributions, shared leadership, and hands-on involvement, fostering a sense of ownership and vision among all participating congregations. The goal is to create a sustainable cycle of churches planting churches, reaching lost people, and expanding God's kingdom. In conclusion, the episode emphasizes the need for a shift from church growth to kingdom growth, highlighting the importance of surrender to Jesus' lordship and genuine discipleship. The speaker calls for a collective effort among churches to embrace the mission of church planting, ensuring doctrinal soundness and long-term health to effectively expand the kingdom of God. The session ends with a prayer, reaffirming the commitment to follow Jesus' guidance in building His church.
