Choosing the Better Portion: Finding Intimacy with Jesus in a Busy World explores the powerful story from Luke 10 where Jesus affirms Mary's choice to sit at His feet while gently correcting Martha's anxious service. This message reveals how we can experience deeper intimacy with God in our distraction-filled lives. Discover what it truly means to sit at Jesus' feet and how this heart posture transforms our spiritual practices from mere activities into life-changing encounters. Learn to recognize the warfare against God's presence in your life - from constant notifications to work demands to family responsibilities - and how to overcome these challenges. Understand why Mary was so drawn to Jesus even before witnessing His miracles, and examine whether familiarity has dulled your wonder of God's presence. This teaching provides practical applications for creating space to receive from God rather than always doing for Him, experiencing the transformation that comes only through His presence - healing, joy, peace and rest that cannot be taken away. Perfect for anyone feeling overwhelmed by busyness, struggling to prioritize time with God, or desiring deeper spiritual intimacy.This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.Visit our websiteFollow us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

The Robyn Engelson Podcast Ever wish you had a life mentor with over decades of experience whispering million dollar tips in your ear? That's exactly what you will get each week when you tune into The Robyn Engelson Podcast. I'm your host, a sought after burnout recovery coach for high-achieving women and help you heal from burnout and survival mode, so you can reclaim your energy, joy, and rediscover your voice. Each week, I bring you inspiring guests, insights, and tools to empower you to be energized, compress time, and start living instead of existing.   Episode Title:  What Does True Freedom Look Like in a Busy World? Host: Robyn Engelson Guest: Michael Gardon Episode Summary:  In this episode, we sit down with Michael Gardon, a creative strategist, leadership coach, and champion of Time Sovereignty. Michael's story isn't about hustle. It's about waking up, reclaiming your time, and building a life around what truly matters. After years of following the “default path” chasing achievement, checking boxes, and staying busy, Michael realized success without intention is just noise. So, he broke away. Now, he helps others do the same. This conversation is for anyone who feels like they're constantly running, but getting nowhere. Michael invites us to slow down, think deeper, and make powerful, present choices. Because freedom isn't found in doing more. It's found in doing what matters.    You'll learn: Why Michael says being “busy” is the new burnout What it means to stop renting your time and start owning it How to identify the busywork that's draining your energy What Time Sovereignty looks like and how to practice it Why saying “no” can be the most productive thing you do How sharing your story can shift lives, including your own   Memorable Quotes: “Busy is not a badge. It's a boundary issue.” – Michael “The cost of default living is your actual life.” – Michael “You can't own your time until you own your truth.” – Robyn   Actionable Steps for Listeners: Audit Your Time:   Track your time for one day. Where is it going? What could shift? Practice a 10-Minute Rule:   Set a timer. Spend 10 minutes each morning doing only what feels aligned. Say “No” (Just Once):   One small "no" to something draining = one big "yes" to something meaningful. Tell Your Story:   Your journey might be the permission someone else needs. Share it.   Final Thought: You don't need to fill every hour to prove your worth. As Michael reminds us: “Success without self-awareness is just performance. Real success is personal.”    What listeners have to say: “Michael's take on Time Sovereignty changed how I look at my week. Life feels lighter.” – Jenna B., Entrepreneur “Finally, someone talking about success in a way that actually makes sense.” – Omar L., Leadership Trainer “That quote, ‘Busy is a boundary issue,' I wrote it on a sticky note. Needed that.” – Tracey D., C-Suite Leader   These stories remind us:  Failure isn't the end. It's an invitation to evolve.  Success means nothing if you lose yourself in the process.  True connection comes from authenticity, not achievement. Now it's your turn: Where are you spending your time? What would it mean to reclaim it? Tag us, DM us, or share your thoughts. We want to hear your story.   Loved this episode?

Feeling burned out? Discover how Sabbath rest and God's peace protect your soul in a world that won't slow down.Let's face it, peace can feel pretty hard to come by these days. The noise, the pace, the pressure to keep going…it adds up fast.  And suddenly we're exhausted. Spiritually, emotionally, even physically.This week on Together 4 Good, Pastor Nate Preisinger talks about what he calls "Spiritual Sunscreen,” the kind of peace that doesn't just feel nice in theory, but actually protects us in the middle of our everyday chaos.  Rooted in the story of Exodus and the command to keep Sabbath, this episode is all about learning how to slow down, not out of laziness, but as an intentional act of faith. Because when God invites us to rest, it's not a suggestion. It's a gift. One that helps us remember who we are and who God is.Whether your calendar is overflowing or your soul just feels tired, this conversation is for you. It's a reminder that rest is holy. And peace isn't something we earn, it's something we receive.You'll walk away with: A better understanding of why Sabbath matters (and why it's still relevant today)Encouragement for when you're feeling spiritually depletedPractical ways to create space for rest, rhythm, and God's grace in your life.Key Takeaways: 

Let's talk about what it really means to lead with purpose—and still take care of yourself in the process. In this episode of Operation Be, I sit down with the powerhouse that is Monica Adams—a woman who's spent over 30 years making bold moves in the TV and radio world, and now, she's flipping the script with a morning show that's all about positivity, intention, and impact. We get into so much more than career highlights. We talk about what it takes to hold your own in male-dominated industries without losing your softness. We go deep into why kindness and integrity aren't weaknesses—they're your edge. We cover how the real work of staying grounded in a world that's always pulling you in a hundred directions. Monica shares how she's stayed organized, clear, and aligned—even in the messiest seasons. Her take on mental and physical health, and how they're non-negotiable for true success, is something every high-achiever needs to hear. If you've ever felt like you had to choose between being powerful or peaceful… ambitious or authentic… this conversation will meet you where you are. This one's for the women rewriting the rules. For the ones leading with heart, and refusing to shrink.

"Feelings fully felt is bliss." "Breath is always free." "Self-augmentation is the key."   Episode summary | In this episode of the Return on Generosity podcast, host Shannon Cassidy speaks with Jason Henkel, founder of Focus to Evolve, about achieving balance and productivity without burnout. Jason shares his journey from a hectic corporate life to discovering the importance of self-management and centeredness. He emphasizes the need for leaders to create high-performance teams and the role of architectural calendaring in productivity. The conversation also explores the potential of AI in augmenting thought processes and the unique strengths of individuals with ADHD. Ultimately, Jason advocates for a shift in workplace culture towards generosity and self-care, encouraging listeners to redefine productivity and prioritize their well-being.   R.O.G. Takeaway Tips | Self-management needs to come before time management. The hustle culture is outdated; balance is key to thriving. Feelings fully felt lead to a blissful life experience. Creating a centered atmosphere can positively influence teams. Architectural calendaring helps in organizing tasks effectively. Deep immersion sessions can unlock higher productivity levels. AI can be used for thought augmentation and identifying blind spots. ADHD can be harnessed as a superpower when managed well. Generosity towards oneself is crucial for personal growth.

Send us a textWhat if your very life depended on rest? For author and Master Naturalist, Eryn Lynum, diagnosed with Addison's disease at just 14 years old, this isn't a philosophical question—it's reality. With adrenal glands that no longer function, Erin's body can't produce the stress hormone cortisol, making overwhelming stress potentially fatal. Yet from this sobering reality emerged profound wisdom about God's gift of rest that might transform how you view your rhythms of work and rejuvenation.Looking back at her teenage diagnosis before departing on a two-month mission trip to Ethiopia (her first time on a plane!), Erin shares how her parents' faith-filled response modeled trust in God's provision. Their first question to the doctor wasn't about limitations but possibilities: "Can she still go to Africa?" This foundation of faithful trust would later inform her approach to rest not as restriction but liberation.Three years ago, Erin and her husband—overworked, running three businesses while homeschooling four children—made the countercultural decision to embrace true Sabbath practice from Friday evening to Saturday evening. The results were stunning. Not only did their family life deepen, but her husband's struggling one-man business grew exponentially, now employing nine people with revenue increased by 500%—all while maintaining their commitment to rest. This paradox challenges our productivity-obsessed mindset: What if rest fuels our most meaningful work?Erin draws powerful parallels from nature, especially the hummingbird—a creature whose wings beat 70 times per second yet survives through "torpor," a state of deep, restorative stillness. Similarly, she suggests implementing "Selah pauses" throughout our days—intentional moments of reflection that restore our perspective and energy. Perhaps most profound is her insight that "want and discontentment are often the drivers of hustle and hurry," revealing how contentment becomes the foundation for true rest.Join us for this heartlifting conversation that reframes rest not as something earned after productivity but as the vital foundation upon which all meaningful work should be built. Looking for practical wisdom on implementing restful rhythms in your family life? You won't want to miss Erin's forthcoming book, "The Nature of Rest: What the Bible and Creation Teach Us About Sabbath Living," which will be released on May 13th—just in time for Mother's Day.Order Support the showBegin Your Heartlifter's Journey: Visit and subscribe to Heartlift Central on Substack.

“Even if you hate your job, you hate your career- Collect everything you possibly can from this experience and then move to the next thing and collect everything from that.” Jay Shetty  Pivot Family, in this introspective and soul-stirring episode, we go outside our comfort zone of sports and entertainment, approach topics we tend to ignore and ask questions that will help guide us to not just find our purpose but to LIVE our purpose, and who better to do it with than a man who sits atop the space, globally known for his wisdom and guidance. New York Times Best Selling author, Award-winning podcast host and former monk Jay Shetty brings a powerful blend of vulnerability, clarity, and wisdom to the discussion. Known for helping millions navigate personal growth and emotional healing, Jay sits down with the newly minted Black Monk (our own Ryan Clark), Channing and Fred to share how his life has been built on pivots. Spiritually, emotionally, and professionally, “My life has just been full of pivots… I don't actually want to be ever not pivoting,” he says, embracing change as a lifelong practice rather than a one-time choice. Jay opens up to the guys about his unlikely journey from chasing status in London to giving it all up to become a monk, living in an ashram. Ryan asks if it was a failure to leave the monastery after three years to pursue his calling for motivational speaking as the guys discuss the reality of how life shifts and if we don't evolve, we can't grow. Jay recounts the days when no one showed up to hear him speak, the power of pushing forward and not being afraid to start at zero, reminding us all that growth requires humility, patience, and persistence. Throughout the conversation, Jay breaks down the challenges people face in modern relationships, identity, and purpose. He speaks candidly about love. What it is, what it isn't, and why we often confuse instability for excitement, flipping the cultural script on romance and connection. Whether discussing solitude, emotional baggage, or finding meaning through pain, Jay delivers deep truths with the calm assurance of someone who's lived every word. Jay opens up about marriage, failure, grief, and the challenge of letting go of people, careers, and versions of ourselves we've outgrown. He shares with the guys that we lose love to remind ourselves that there are other emotional skills to be developed by challenging us to grow beyond heartbreak, not just recover from it. More than just motivation, this episode is a toolkit for self-discovery. With his signature compassion and clarity, Jay Shetty proves that pivoting isn't something you fear, it's how you evolve. Whether you're starting over or standing still, this conversation might be the shift you didn't know you needed. Like and Comment what your biggest takeaway is from the conversation.

Most of us spend our days replaying the past or bracing for what's next, but how often do we fully experience what's happening right now?   Dr. Andrew Fix breaks down the power of presence and why learning to stay in the moment can change the way we move through life. Watching his one-year-old son play, he noticed something striking—kids don't dwell on yesterday or stress about tomorrow. They just are. Adults, on the other hand, get caught in cycles of reflection that can keep us stuck. We overanalyze what's behind us, anticipate what's ahead, and miss the only time that actually matters: the present.   Why is it so hard to stay focused on what's in front of us? Dr. Fix explores that challenge and offers practical ways to shift your mindset. He shares why small, everyday moments—like a conversation over dinner or a quiet pause in your day—hold more power than we realize. Stress will always be part of life, but our purpose is shaped by what we choose to focus on.   This episode is an invitation to pay attention. To be where your feet are. To engage fully in the moments that matter most.   Quotes “Kids only know one thing, right? One-year-olds, they only know how to be present, right? Like they're not worrying about the past. They're not thinking ahead to what's happening in the future. But as adults, that's what we do, right? We dwell on things that happened in the past. We worry about things that are coming up in the future. And we're not always good at just focusing on the present moment.” (03:05 | Dr. Andrew Fix)  “The only moment that any of us can affect right now is this one that we are in right now.” (03:31 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “We are human beings, not human doings, right? And yes, we need to reflect and think about the things that happened in the past. And we need to reflect on those. And we need to plan and anticipate and prepare ourselves for the things that are coming up in the future. But that doesn't mean we need to dwell on them.” (03:43 | Dr. Andrew Fix)  “Whether that's you're out to dinner with a friend or a loved one, be there, be in that conversation. Don't be worried about what's on your phone.” (04:30 | Dr. Andrew Fix)  “Sometimes you get through that. And then you have bigger things that come up in the future. And then you look back on those things that happened in the past that at the time felt enormous and they really feel small, right? They feel insignificant compared to the things you're going through now.” (05:13 | Dr. Andrew Fix)    Links Book: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/stillness-is-the-key-ryan-holiday/1130068915?cjdata=MXxOfDB8WXww&st=AFF&SID=www.barnesandnoble.com&2sid=Brass+Check_8445061_NA&sourceId=AFFBrass+Check&cjevent=c29fe78af37b11ef801f006b0a1cb828&dpid=tekz25v83#/   SideKick Tool: https://bit.ly/4a6CqJS   Movemate:

In this illuminating episode, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with Dr. Danah Henriksen, Associate Professor of Leadership and Innovation at Arizona State University and co-author of Explaining Creativity: The Science of Human Innovation, about the interconnections between creativity, mindfulness, and well-being. Dr. Henriksen shares valuable insights from her research and personal experience about nurturing creativity in both educational settings and daily life."Creativity is something that's fundamental and core to who we are as people. But we often do have to kind of fight with ourselves to make sure we're leaving some time for that."Understanding CreativityDr. Henriksen challenges the common misconception that creativity is limited to artistic pursuits or special talents. She emphasizes that creativity is accessible to everyone: "If you look across the breadth of most creativity studies, it's really something that we all have access to in different ways as human beings." Creativity in EducationDr. Henriksen discusses the tension between standardized testing requirements and fostering creativity in schools. She shares insights from her study of National Teacher of the Year award winners who successfully integrated creative approaches while achieving strong academic results.Nurturing Creativity in ChildrenFor parents looking to support creativity, Dr. Henriksen recommends:* Recognizing that children are naturally creative* Supporting their existing interests and creative passions* Praising the creative process rather than just the outcome* Providing diverse experiences and encouraging safe risk-taking* Fostering a growth mindset about mistakes and learningThe Mindfulness-Creativity ConnectionDr. Henriksen shares how mindfulness can enhance creativity, noting, "The ability to kind of suspend judgment... that ability of reframing or looking at things with fresh eyes is a really key part of creativity."Practical Takeaways* Make time for creative activities, even if they don't serve an obvious productive purpose* Practice mindful awareness to support creative thinking and overall well-being* View mistakes as learning opportunities rather than failures* Consider creativity as essential to human nature rather than just a luxury* Be mindful of where you direct your attention in our distraction-filled worldInterested in purchasing Explaining Creativity: The Science of Human Innovation?

In the final episode of our Pastor Care series, Dean Weaver sits down with Rev. David Henderson to explore the transformative power of sabbaticals in the life of a pastor and their congregation. Together, they unpack the biblical foundation for sabbaticals, rooted in the concept of Shabbat, emphasizing that a sabbatical is far more than just an extended vacation—it's a sacred time to cease, listen, and engage deeply with the Lord. David shares insights on how a well-planned sabbatical can revitalize a pastor's mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being, creating space for renewal and vision. He also discusses the ripple effects sabbaticals can have on a congregation, fostering growth, resilience, and an opportunity for shared leadership. Whether you're a church leader, a member of a congregation, or simply curious about how rest and renewal impact ministry, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on the importance of creating rhythms of rest in the life of the Church.

WEEK 1 OF 3  // Andy HahnHow would you describe your current level of busyness? Would you say you are feeling overrun by all the activities in your life? Why or why not?The message highlighted how culture often defines people by what they do, rather than who they are. How do you see this in your own life? Do you find yourself defining your identity by your job, your different roles, or your productivity?Read the story of Martha and Mary in Luke 10:38-42. Martha gets distracted by all the work and loses focus on what matters most Jesus' presence. Can you think of a time when you got caught up in the busyness of life and lost sight of what was truly important to you?Jesus told Martha that "Only one thing is needed," and Mary chose the better thing. Are there areas of your life where you feel you are filling your time with activities, but you're not feeling fulfilled? What would it look like to make an adjustment?Pastor Andy raised the question, "Who or what is setting your agenda?" Are you currently setting the schedule for your life based on your core values and priorities, or are there areas where you've simply become busy for the sake of being busy?Is there any part of your schedule that you think God would want to rearrange? If so, which are(s) and why?   Sermon Locations and Times: Sundays Services are at 9:30 AM and 11:00 AM at 2601 E Alex Bell Rd Dayton, OH 45459 You can join us online on Facebook or YouTube at 11:00 AM.
