BE CAREFUL WITH YOU | John 2:23–25We often think about stewardship in terms of money, gifts, and resources—but what if one of the most important things God has given you to steward is you?Your time. Your energy. Your attention. Your emotional capacity. Your presence. And even the access other people have to you.In John 2:23–25, many people believed in Jesus because they saw the miracles He performed, yet Scripture says that Jesus “did not commit himself unto them…because he knew all men.” Jesus loved people, served people, and ultimately gave His life for people—but He was also discerning about access.In this message, “Be Careful With You,” Pastor Beau explores the biblical and emotional importance of healthy boundaries through three simple movements:Know Your AudienceKnow YourselfKnow Your AssignmentBoundaries aren't necessarily about shutting people out. Sometimes boundaries are simply good stewardship. You don't have to overcommit, overperform, overexplain, overshare, or show up everywhere just to prove that you love people.

In this episode, Mark and Cindy explore Paul's powerful picture of building the Kingdom of God on the only foundation strong enough to endure: Jesus Christ and His inspired words communicated through the Holy Spirit within the sacred writings of the New Testament. When the fires of testing come, everything false will be exposed and consumed, leaving only what is rooted in God's truth. Thus, this powerful section of Scripture is a call to use only the flawless word of God rather than the fragile materials of human wisdom and worldly thinking to grow the church of Christ.

After years of investigating private homes, he decided it was time to visit one of the country's most notorious haunted hospitals.

Some encounters were subtle. Others were impossible to ignore. By the time the weekend was over, he left with hours of recordings, a completely different perspective on the paranormal, and one experience that still stands out above all the rest.Sometimes the biggest question isn't whether a place is haunted—it's whether some places know you're there.#OldSouthPittsburgHospital #HauntedHospital #HospitalHaunting #GhostInvestigation #ParanormalInvestigation #EVP #GhostEncounter #HauntedPlaces #RealGhostStories #TrueGhostStoriesLove real ghost stories?

In Mark 4:1–20, Jesus tells the Parable of the Sower and explains why people respond so differently to the preaching of the Word. The problem is not with the seed. The seed is the Word of God. The difference is found in the soil of the human heart. Some hear with hardened hearts, and Satan quickly snatches away the Word. Others receive it with initial enthusiasm but have no root and fall away when obedience becomes costly. Still others hear the Word, but the cares of the world, the deceitfulness of riches, and other desires choke it until it becomes unfruitful. But there is also good soil. These hear the Word, receive it, and bear fruit thirtyfold, sixtyfold, and a hundredfold. Jesus therefore confronts every hearer with a searching question: How are you hearing the Word of God? Yet this passage is not simply an exhortation to try harder to become good soil. Christ is the faithful Sower and the living Word. He is the obedient and fruitful Son, and through His death and resurrection He brings forth a harvest of redeemed sinners. By His Spirit He softens hardened hearts, roots His people in Himself, frees them from the thorns of this age, and makes them fruitful by grace. Take care how you hear. Receive the Word. Trust Christ. Abide in Him. Bear fruit to the glory of God.

Retirement is the beginning of a new story, and the decisions you make leading up to your last working day can significantly impact your financial well-being and peace of mind. On the show this week, I focus on the importance of timing your retirement and how choosing the specific month to retire can significantly impact your finances, taxes, and benefits.    There are various financial and emotional factors to weigh—ranging from optimizing pensions and bonuses to health insurance coverage and even non-financial considerations like climate and seasonality. Careful planning avoids costly mistakes, such as unnecessary taxes or missed income opportunities. I also explore listener questions, covering topics such as whether to pay off your mortgage before retiring, how much cash to keep on hand, how to develop a withdrawal strategy, and how to plan for inherited IRAs, to empower you to make informed choices as you approach or navigate retirement. >   You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...   [01:45] How the timing of retirement affects financial outcomes [05:55] Timing retirement with bonuses [12:11] Timing retirement for tax benefits [16:32] Paying off mortgage before retirement [18:50] Premature 401 (k) withdrawal tax mistake [26:44] Benefits of early Roth conversions [31:49] Planning a tax-free legacy [41:54] Understanding annuity and IRA rules   The Right Month to Retire   One concept discussed was the surprising significance of when in the year you retire. Many people pick their retirement date based on sentimental reasons—such as a birthday or simply reaching the end of a fiscal quarter. In actual fact, the month you retire can swing your benefits, taxes, and overall income.   There is a financial advantage of retiring early in the year, particularly in the spring. Retiring after you've earned just a few months of income keeps you in a lower tax bracket for the year. This allows you to maximize Roth IRA or 401(k) contributions, capitalize on the year's HSA limits, and possibly stack up a payout on unused vacation and PTO in a low-income year—saving you thousands in taxes. Conversely, retiring near the end of the year—after most income is already earned—often means higher taxes on lump-sum payouts and fewer options for account contributions.   Retiring into spring, particularly in colder climates, can offer a positive mental boost, making the transition out of work more enjoyable compared to the isolation of a winter retirement.   Don't Leave Money on the Table   Specific benefits such as bonuses, profit sharing, and pension calculations are often tied to your official retirement date. For instance, certain pension plans count an additional year of service if you retire in January rather than December, potentially increasing your monthly payout for life.   Bonuses commonly paid in the first quarter motivate many to extend their tenure until after the check clears. Health insurance is another major factor—timing your departure can determine whether you maximize employer contributions or face high premiums through COBRA or private options, especially if you retire before becoming Medicare-eligible at 65.   Mortgage Decisions: To Pay Off or Not to Pay Off?   A popular listener question is whether to pay off your mortgage before retirement. While there's no one-size-fits-all answer, many self-made millionaires pay off their homes early. Without a mortgage, your required monthly income drops—granting financial flexibility and security.   Rushing to pay off your mortgage by tapping tax-deferred accounts while still earning a high salary can lead to hefty tax bills—sometimes costing tens of thousands extra. Instead, consider timing large withdrawals for when your income is lowest to minimize taxes, especially in your first year of retirement.   Making Your Money Last There are many different approaches to withdrawing funds in retirement, like proportional withdrawals across tax buckets, or spending from traditional IRAs first and Roth IRAs last, and they can have drastic long-term tax implications.    Legacy goals further complicate the equation. If leaving tax-efficient inheritances or charitable gifts is important, incorporating those aims into your withdrawal strategy early makes a huge difference for heirs. Mapping out these decisions alongside a financial planner can mean hundreds of thousands in potential savings. Retirement is a complex transition that deserves a thoughtful, strategic approach. The months and years leading up to your last day at work hold opportunities (and pitfalls) that can greatly affect your financial future.  Resources & People Mentioned   3 Steps to Retirement Planning Ramsey Solutions    Connect With Gregg Gonzalez   Email at: Gregg.gonzalez@lpl.com Podcast: https://RetireStrongFA.com/Podcast Website: https://RetireStrongFA.com/ Follow Gregg on LinkedIn Follow Gregg on Facebook Follow Gregg on YouTube Subscribe to Retirement Made Easy On Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts

Fonzi sent me a text on his drive home. One line. "The reason we create content is to create trust. Trust generates demand." And that text turned into this whole episode. Because here's what most people get wrong... they think their content isn't working because the hook was weak. Or the framework was off. Or the template didn't convert. It's not that. There are three things underneath every piece of content that actually decides whether someone believes you. Miss one and it doesn't matter how good your edit is. Hit all three consistently and people show up to the call already ready to work with you. We break down all three in this one, plus how to run your existing content through it like a filter and see exactly where you're leaking trust.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is the best Tom Holland Spider-Man yet, and Brian and Tony dive into why it lands so hard. From the film's biggest emotional moments to the post-credit theory that could reshape the MCU, the conversation explores the scenes, the secrets, and the sequel possibilities fans are already debating.Brian shares why this one feels more personal than No Way Home, including the standout Punisher team-up, the surprise moments that nearly brought tears, and the lingering questions around MJ, Ned, and the ending.
