The film "Life Is Beautiful" tells the story of a father who uses imagination, love, and sacrifice to protect his son from the horrors of a concentration camp. In the middle of extreme ugliness, he creates an atmosphere of joy and hope. While that story offers a beautiful illusion, scripture reveals something far greater: it is truly possible to live a beautiful life in an ugly world through the good news of God.In the second part of Isaiah, God's people were facing harsh and painful realities. Captured by the Babylonian army, they lived in exile, far from home. Yet Isaiah suddenly speaks words of hope, beauty, and restoration. In the midst of devastation, God announces freedom, joy, and salvation.Isaiah 52:7“How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of the one who brings good news, who announces peace, who brings good news of happiness, who announces salvation, and says to Zion, ‘Your God reigns!'”In Scripture, feet represent action—how faith is lived out on earth.* Feet symbolise service and humility (John 13:14–15)* Feet represent stability and standing firm in faith* Feet point to direction in daily life—walking in God's will* Feet represent dominion and victory, with the enemy under our feet* Feet represent the spread of the gospelIsaiah pictures messengers running across the mountains to announce joyful news to a broken and hopeless people. God would defeat Babylon through King Cyrus and restore Jerusalem and the temple. What looked impossible was about to become reality.This same image appears again in Nahum 1:15, pointing to victory over Assyria, and later in Romans 10:14–15, where Paul applies Isaiah's words to the gospel of Jesus Christ. God's people are called to be bearers of beautiful news in a world full of pain.If a beautiful life is desired, the priority must be to become a messenger of good news in a bad-news world.1. The Beautiful Privilege of Bringing PeaceIsaiah 52:7Peace is something every heart longs for—peace in minds, families, workplaces, communities, and nations. Jesus is called the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6), and through Him, peace with God and peace within becomes possible.John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.”The peace of Jesus calms the storms of life. When peace with God is established, fear, panic, despair, and anxiety lose their grip. This is a beautiful message in a troubled world.2. The Beautiful Privilege of Proclaiming God's RuleIsaiah 52:7 “…who say to Zion, ‘Your God reigns!'”Zion represents Jerusalem, but also the Church—the people among whom God dwells. This declaration reminds God's people that no earthly power is ultimate. Babylon was not in control. Persia was not in control. God reigns.The kingdom of God speaks of His sovereign rule, established through Jesus Christ and lasting forever.Mark 1:15 “The kingdom of God has come near.”Because God reigns, no one needs to remain captive to fear, sin, darkness, or the past. God's authority brings freedom and hope. Proclaiming His rule is a powerful and beautiful privilege.3. The Beautiful Privilege of Sharing God's ComfortIsaiah 52:9 “Break forth together into joy… for the LORD has comforted His people.”This continues the message that opens the second half of Isaiah:Isaiah 40:1–2 “Comfort, comfort my people… Speak tenderly to Jerusalem…”God sees human fragility. He knows when hearts are breaking and strength is gone. He comes alongside His people to heal, steady, and restore. This is why the Holy Spirit is known as the Comforter. Sharing God's comfort brings beauty to lives marked by pain and loss.4. The Beautiful Privilege of Proclaiming SalvationIsaiah 52:8–10 “All the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God.”The ultimate good news is salvation. God rescues, restores, and redeems. Jesus is the Saviour of the world.Luke 19:10 “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”Jesus taught that heaven rejoices when what is lost is found (Luke 15). A soul is of greater value than any success, wealth, or position.Mark 8:35–36 “What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?”True beauty, joy, and fulfilment come from living for the salvation of others.The calling to bring good news requires a response.Romans 10:14–15 “How can they hear without someone preaching? … How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”Pastor Adriana shared how the verse in Isaiah 6:8—“Here am I. Send me!”—changed her life. Saying yes to God led her into difficult places, nations, and new opportunities to proclaim Jesus. Her feet were not just for comfort or personal ambition, but for God's purpose.William Booth, founder of the Salvation Army, captured this calling when he wrote:“Some men's ambition is art. Some men's ambition is fame. Some men's ambition is gold. My ambition is the souls of men.”ConclusionA beautiful life in an ugly world is not built on illusion, success, or comfort. It is found in carrying the beautiful message of Jesus—His peace, His rule, His comfort, and His salvation—into a hurting world.This is the calling and DNA of God's people: to speak up, to go out, and to bring His kingdom into homes, communities, and nations. The Holy Spirit empowers this calling and brings joy, purpose, and lasting beauty to those who say, “Here am I. Send me.”
A wise and person brings peace to the conversation, while a wicked man raises the temperature. Spread wisdom, not lies. Spread love, not strife. If you are happy with what you have, you will be happy every day of your life. If you are not satisfied with what you have, you will be sad forever.

Motherhood can feel loud, busy, and overwhelming—but it doesn't have to drown out your peace. In this episode, I'm sharing how we as moms can ground ourselves in our values, strengthen our support systems, and take micro moments of self-care that help us reset and realign. Together, we'll reflect on the importance of boundaries, staying connected to what truly matters for our families, and choosing empowerment over outside noise and pressure. With so many influences competing for our attention, this conversation is all about returning to center and finding the peace that allows us to thrive in this season of motherhood.
This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! What if you could not only feel the presence of spirits… but see and hear them as clearly as the living? For psychic medium Jake Lanagan, this isn't imagination — it's his everyday reality. Jake is a gifted psychic medium with Riverside Iowa Paranormal, an extraordinary team of psychics, mediums, and healers who dedicate their lives to investigating hauntings and helping families in need. Their mission is unlike most: they offer their services completely free of charge, driven by compassion and an unshakable commitment to the truth about the paranormal world. Since childhood, Jake has seen and sensed spirits — shadowy presences in hallways, whispers in the night, and full-bodied apparitions that others around him could not. Instead of burying his ability, Jake chose to embrace it, transforming fear into purpose. Today, his unique connection with the other side allows him to communicate through both sight and sound, giving a voice to spirits and bringing validation to families caught in the grip of real hauntings. In this chilling and emotional conversation, Jake reveals what it's really like to live with the gift of mediumship, how his encounters with the spirit world shape his investigations, and why Riverside Iowa Paranormal has become one of the most respected names in the field. From heartbreaking cases of families plagued by unseen forces to dark entities that test the strength of even the most seasoned investigators, Jake and his team step in where others turn away. If you've ever wondered what it means to truly “see” the dead — or what it takes to face the unknown with nothing but faith and ability — this is the story you can't afford to miss. This is Part Two of our conversation. #PsychicMedium #TrueGhostStory #HauntedHouse #RealHauntings #ParanormalInvestigation #GhostStories #RiversideIowaParanormal #Mediumship #SpiritCommunication #TheGraveTalks #RealGhostStories #ParanormalEncounters For more information about Riverside Iowa Paranormal, visit their website at riversideiowaparanormal.org or find them on Facebook.

As we explore this concept, I aim to demonstrate how grounding oneself in various sacred texts can profoundly aid in fostering peace and calm within the mind and body. Building on previous discussions, I reintroduce the practice of meditating on passages from notable spiritual sources, encouraging listeners to engage with the wisdom found within these texts. I guide my listeners through a meditative experience, where I share five different passages from various traditions. Each passage offers its own depth and insight, serving as a vehicle for listeners to connect more intimately with their present state of mind. I emphasize the importance of personal resonance, inviting individuals to discover which words may speak to them most powerfully, or perhaps inspire them to find their own meaningful verses for regular meditation. As we begin this meditative journey, I gently prompt listeners to tune into their breath, to observe its natural rhythm—whether fast or slow. This mindful awareness lays the groundwork for a calming experience. I stress the release of tension while settling comfortably, allowing body and mind to enter a state of relaxation yet alertness, which is crucial for effective meditation. With each sacred passage, I encourage listeners to mentally repeat the words, inviting the wisdom of each phrase to permeate their thoughts and feelings. #MeditationPractice #AnxietySupport #FindingCalm #SpiritualGrowth #WisdomQuotes #SoulNourishment #ReligiousWisdom #InspirationalSayings #PassageMeditation #InterfaithPractice #BreathworkMeditation #NervousSystemRegulation #InnerPeaceNow #MindfulLiving #StFrancisPrayer #BhagavadGitaWisdom #PsalmMeditation #UpanishadTeachings #MettaMeditation #LovingKindnessPractice #EmotionalWellness #MentalWellbeing #StressManagement #SelfCareSunday (or any day!) #ReflectivePractice #ContemplativePrayer #FindYourStillness #BePresent #EmotionalRegulationSkills #GinaRyan #ACP #AnxietyCoachesPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

Part 3 of this fascinating story of redemption! You will be lost if you skipped parts 1 and 2. Enjoy!PURE GOLD:80-90% of people are separated from the land of their inheritance. This limits access to the fullness of God's blessing, and the open heaven for rich encounters with the Lord. Ask the Lord if your family was taken from the land, or was the land taken from your family.BIO RECAP:Timothy Bence is a forerunning Kingdom of God builder, and has learned to walk in true sonship. He helps construct a foundation for others to build on, and instructs many to walk in their gifts, calling, and grace by being a part of the living body of Christ, the Ekklesia. He lives with a promise from the Lord, and a growing desire to see whole cities and nations saved where every knee bows and every tongue confesses that Jesus is Lord.HIGHLIGHTS:– Finding a man of peace on each side of the Israeli / Palestinian border amidst the bombing and gunfire.– Asking for a new memorial to be written because the last time His name was written it was written by a Roman, and put on a cross. It called him the King of the Jews. But he's not just the King of the Jews. He's the King of kings.– Miraculous things start happening when you find the land that's calling your name! You begin to steward over the things He's calling you to steward over. Especially the presence of God.– Everybody that I know is praying for a move of God to come. But what if we don't know how to steward over the presence, when it comes we'll ruin it. Because we'll do something that dishonors the King of kings, or dishonors one another, and he'll take up the cause of the righteous, and he'll protect and uphold the rights of the widow and the orphan and the poor and the strangers among us.– If we despise anything that he despises, our field might stop producing fruit, not because it's not capable of it, but because God will require repentance before it will spring to life again.– The land will reflect to you the condition of your heart. If you're right with God, it will be a bountiful field. If you're not, it will let you know. This is how it's supposed to work from the beginning. This is why the garden was important. – This is really important. To understand that when you find your field. One of the highest and most fun things to do is to inquire of God about details on the field, what he wants, what he likes. If something's there, grow it out. If it's not there, plant it or build it.– You have to name it. The field really does come alive when you name it correctly, just like a child coming out of a womb. If I name it correctly, it's because I've discovered its creative purpose and design. So I don't want to call it something just because I like the name. I want to call it what God says it is. If it's a field of olives, then I'm going to give it a name that reflects that. If it's going to be a city, then I want to call out the name of that city. You want to name your field, what God says its inherent purpose is. Then that gives you a clue on what you're going to steward over all the days of your life.– In the book of Acts Barnabus was the first to sell property and give the money to the apostles. But this was actually an act of repentance for owning a field he wasn't supposed to have as a Levite. He would have had to find the heirs of the original land owner to sell it back into their family to restore their inheritance and make the land right again with God.LINK for TIMOTHY:– Contact Timothy Bence: IamTimothy@gmail.comLINKS for Bralynn:– Get Bralynn's Book!

March 20, 1703. Today, almost fifty men, scattered around the city of Edo, Japan, are waiting to die. They're all former samurai who had served the same lord – and they all carried out a deadly revenge attack in his name. Their story will go down in history as the legend of the 47 Ronin. Why did these men decide that to be loyal samurai, they had to die? And how did this moment live on for centuries and become part of the national story of Japan? Thank you to our guest, Professor John Tucker, author of The Forty-Seven Ronin: The Vendetta in History and translator of Kumazawa Banzan: Governing the Realm and Bringing Peace to All Below Heaven. ** This episode originally aired Oct 15, 2021.

Are you looking for peace in homeschooling? Quieting the voices, listening to the research, and following a plan that works for your family is the path to peace in homeschooling. Another way to gain peace is by hearing the stories of those who have gone before us. Learning from the experiences of others is one of the great benefits of homeschooling-what worked and what didn't! Carole speaks with Connie Wright and her daughter, Ashley Becker, who found peace and success in their homeschooling journey. Connie and her husband transitioned to homeschooling after trying public and private schools. She then attended one of Carole's conferences and shifted their approach to literature-based learning. They began to feel such freedom and peace in their children's self-learning which strengthened their family relationships and created beautiful memories through read-alouds, family discussions and time together.

Now sink into a comfortable position, And release all you're holding onto. LONG PAUSE… See if you can notice any thoughts that may be present, swirling around like leaves in the wind. Just observe them without judgment, allowing them to be there. LONG PAUSE… Know that it's natural for the mind to wander, to jump from one thought to another. But sometimes, those thoughts can become overwhelming, creating a sense of anxiety or unrest within us. PAUSE… So, in this moment, we will practice bringing peace to our thoughts. So see if you can imagine a gentle stream of water flowing past them. Allow your thoughts to rest on the surface of the water, watching as they drift away. PAUSE… Notice how the water is cool and soothing, calming the swirling thoughts in your mind. As your thoughts continue to float away on the water, feel a sense of peace beginning to settle within you. You may notice that your thoughts start to slow down, becoming less chaotic and more peaceful. PAUSE… Know that this practice of bringing peace to your thoughts can be done at any time, whenever you need it. It is always available to you, just like the calm and stillness that resides within. PAUSE… Namaste, Beautiful
