Catalyst Church of Carrollton - 6/23/25 "Why Are You Settling?" “When the boys became men, Esau was a good hunter, out in the fields. Jacob was a quiet man. He stayed near to the tents. Isaac liked to eat the meat from the wild animals that Esau killed. So he loved Esau. But Rebekah loved Jacob. One day, Jacob was cooking a meal. Esau came back from the country. He was very hungry. He said to Jacob ‘Quick, let me have some of that red food! I am very hungry.' (That is why Esau was also called Edom.) Jacob said, ‘You must first sell me your birthright.' Esau said, ‘Look, I am so hungry that I will die. Then my birthright will not help me at all!' Jacob said, ‘First, make a serious promise to me.' So Esau promised to sell his birthright to Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and the soup made from lentils. Esau ate the food and he drank. Then he got up and he left. In that way, Esau showed that he did not think that his birthright was important.” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭25‬:‭27‬-‭34‬ ‭EASY‬‬ You become consumed by the chase and grow numb to the things of God. Worn out by the pursuit, you settle and trade what matters most for what feels urgent in the moment. You settle when you strive to earn what God has already given you.

In this episode, host Jonathan Overall sits down with Rich Simmerman, co-founder of Cantaloupe AI, at the JFF Horizons Summit in New Orleans to tackle a pressing challenge in the hospitality industry: outdated, resume-driven hiring that fails both employers and job seekers. Drawing from Rich's own journey—from managing a coffee shop in Carrollton to pioneering voice interview technology—Cantaloupe AI is replacing traditional job applications with conversational voice interviews. This hands-on, candidate-first approach helps employers screen every applicant, reduce early quits by nearly half, and create workforce matches that stick. Join us as we explore how human-centered AI is transforming first impressions, cutting turnover costs, and reshaping hiring in hotels and restaurants—all while empowering job seekers and businesses alike,

In this episode of the America's Founding Series, Professor Nick Giordano tells the remarkable story of Charles Carroll of Carrollton, the last living signer of the Declaration of Independence and the only Catholic to sign it. Born into immense wealth but denied basic rights due to his faith, Carroll risked everything to support American independence. His signature was more than ink. It represented a bold commitment to the words, “we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.” Discover how this overlooked Founder became a powerful voice for liberty, challenged religious discrimination, and helped shape a freer nation, despite the contradictions he carried. Episode Highlights: The untold story of how a wealthy Catholic outsider became a key voice in America's fight for independence and a signer of the Declaration Why Charles Carroll risked everything by boldly signing the Declaration of Independence with “of Carrollton” to ensure the British knew it was him How Carroll championed religious freedom, helped lay the foundation for the First Amendment, and his internal contradictions on slavery

Catalyst Church of Carrollton 6/8/25 - ”The Power of Perspective” Going Back to Sunday School “Then Elijah said to Ahab, ‘Go now and have some food to eat. Go quickly, because there is the sound of heavy rain that is coming.' So Ahab went away to eat and to drink. But Elijah climbed to the top of Mount Carmel. He bent low down towards the ground. He put his face between his knees. Elijah said to his servant, ‘Go up and look towards the sea.' So his servant did that. He said to Elijah, ‘There is nothing to see there.' Elijah told his servant seven times, ‘Go back and look again.' The seventh time, the servant said, ‘I can see a small cloud above the sea that is coming this way. It is only as big as a man's hand.' So Elijah said, ‘Go and tell Ahab, “Prepare your chariot now! Go back down quickly before the rain stops you.” ' As Elijah said this, the sky became very dark with black clouds. The wind started to blow and there was a heavy storm of rain. King Ahab rode away towards Jezreel. Then the Lord gave Elijah special power. Elijah tied his robe into his belt and he ran all the way to Jezreel. Ahab followed him.” ‭‭1 Kings‬ ‭18‬:‭41‬-‭46‬ ‭EASY‬‬ Desperate people live desperate lives, make desperate decisions, and stay in desperate circumstances because they have desperate perspectives.

It's Thursday, June 5th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Christian groups in India to speak out against persecution June 9 Christian groups across India are organizing a protest against persecution of Christians on Monday, June 9. The National Christian Front noted, “Our Christian brothers and sisters are enduring brutal attacks and growing intolerance from anti-social elements. This is not merely a Christian issue — it is a grave concern for humanity, for peace, and for the values enshrined in our Constitution.” Christians suffered over 600 incidents of violence and discrimination in India last year. The country is ranked 11th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of most difficult places to be a Christian. U.K. Christian groups calling for prayer on June 11 In the United the Kingdom, Christian groups are calling for a day of prayer on Wednesday, June 11 for protecting human life. This comes as lawmakers are considering bills to legalize assisted suicide.  Listen to comments from Ciarán Kelly, director of The Christian Institute.  KELLY: “This is a crucial time for our country. So, it's vital that Christians are asking the God, Who made Heaven and Earth, that He would overrule in all these things, to protect vulnerable people from this careless and callous bill.” In 1 Timothy 1:1-2, the Apostle Paul wrote, “I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.” Trump overturns pro-abortion Biden rule In the United States, the Trump administration rescinded a pro-abortion rule on Tuesday that came from the Biden administration.  The rule tried to force hospital emergency rooms to offer abortions even if the state restricted them.  Matt Bowman, Senior Counsel at Alliance Defending Freedom, said, “Doctors—especially in emergency rooms—are tasked with preserving life. The Trump administration has rolled back a harmful Biden-era mandate that compelled doctors to end unborn lives, in violation of their deeply held beliefs.” Trump raises tariffs on steel imports President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday to raise tariffs on steel imports. The order doubles tariffs on steel and aluminum coming into the country from 25% to 50%. The levy will affect steel exporters in Canada, Mexico, and many countries in Europe. However, the tariff on steel from the United Kingdom remains at 25% as the U.S. and U.K. work out a trade deal.  Dust from Africa's Saharan Desert hits America Over the weekend, a massive plume of dust made its way to Florida all the way from the Saharan Desert in Africa.  Such dust plumes are known as the Saharan Air Layer and typically cross the Atlantic each year. The current plume is the biggest one to reach the U.S. so far this season. It measures nearly 2,000 miles wide and 750 miles from north to south.  The dust can diminish air quality but also creates spectacular sunrises and sunsets.  Only 1 in 100 Evangelical pastors leave ministry annually A report from Lifeway Research found that only 1 out of 100 Evangelical pastors leave the ministry each year.  This low rate has remained steady for the last 10 years despite many pastors acknowledging their work is very demanding and even overwhelming.  Scott McConnell with Lifeway Research said, “The rate of pastors departing the pastorate is steady and quite low given the demands of the role. Many of those leaving the pastorate feel they are moving at God's direction to another role of ministry.” In 2 Timothy 4:2, the Apostle Paul wrote, “Preach the Word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.” The American Miracle movie shows God's intervention in U.S. The Left insists that there's nothing special about America. But a new docudrama contends that God inspired its founding.  The American Miracle – Our Nation is No Accident hits the silver screen in 1,000 theaters nationwide for 3 days only -- Monday, June 9th through Wednesday, June 11th. Inspired by Michael Medved's bestseller, this exciting, entertaining, and edifying motion picture experience was created in anticipation of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.  ‘ Medved appeared on The 700 Club. MEDVED: “America is no accident. All of our most important leaders, from Washington to Lincoln to Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt -- all of our leaders have understood that America has a divine purpose.” Consider God's protection of George Washington – the Father of our Country -- in a ferocious battle in 1755 during the French and Indian War. During the Battle of Monongahela, 69 of 70 officers were either killed or wounded. Washington was the only officer who was not shot off his horse.  In fact, two horses were shot from underneath him. Yet he lived. Even a Native American chief later said they couldn't touch Washington. Shockingly, after the battle, he found numerous bullet holes in his jacket and bullet fragments in his hair, but he was miraculously unscathed. No wonder they called him “Bulletproof.”  Visit the website https://americanmiraclemovie.com/, watch the trailer, click on Tickets, and type in your zipcode to get tickets for next week at a theater near you. Watch the trailer. Worldview listener in Florida speaks up On Wednesday, I was delighted to receive 23 emails at Adam@TheWorldview.com about what listeners enjoy about this newscast. Amy Cool from St. Cloud, Florida wrote, “I like that I can trust The Worldview newscast to report the truth from a Biblical perspective. I like the Scriptures referenced as they pertain to a particular story because it shows the relevance of the Bible to our life today. That's often hard for people to see when they haven't grown up in a home where the Bible was read or explained.” 14 Worldview listeners gave $1,420 to fund our $123,500 annual budget Toward this week's $30,875 goal to fund one-fourth of The Worldview newscast's annual budget by this Friday, June 6th, 14 listeners stepped up to the plate on Wednesday by 7:15pm Central last night.  Our thanks to Grace in Duncanville, Texas, Greg in Rochester, New Hampshire, Andy in Santa Barbara, California, and George in Carrollton, Missouri – each of whom gave $25. We also appreciate Jalynn in Sapulpa, Oklahoma, Jon in Granger, Indiana, and Steven in Jacksonville, Florida – each of whom gave $50. We're grateful to God for Nancy in Peabody, Massachusetts, Kevin in North Bend, Oregon, and Robert in Plano, Texas – each of whom gave $100. And we appreciate the generosity of Paula in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana who pledged $10/month for 12 months for a gift of $120, Dawn in Troy, Montana who gave $150, Amy in Seminole, Texas who gave $300, and Dawn in Smithville, Texas who pledged $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300. Those 14 listeners gave a total of $1,420. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please.  (Drum roll sound effect) $6,352 (People clapping sound effect)  We missed our goal of 20 donors by just 6 donors. That means by this Friday, we still need to raise $24,523.    Whether it's Thanksgiving or Christmas, we churn out a weekday broadcast 52 weeks per year. It's a commitment we're glad to make, but we need help to cover the cost. Would you prayerfully consider investing $100 per month for 12 months into this ministry, helping to pay for the work of the six-member Worldview team?  If 20 of you made that pledge we would hit our Friday, June 6th goal one day early. Just go to TheWorldview.com and click on Give on the top right.   And click on the button that indicates a recurring donation if you want to give monthly. Thanks for investing your resources into this media ministry that champions the truth.  Our plumbline is Jesus Christ Himself. Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, June 5th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

This week on the show we reconnect with Chad Rosen, founder and CEO of Victory Hemp Foods, who was first on the show back in the summer of ‘21 when I drove the Lancaster Farming National Hemp Tour RV right up to Victory Hemp's grain bins in Carrollton, Kentucky. When I was there 4 years ago, Victory was processing batches, roughly 20,000 lbs a month, but they just put in a new processing line that lets them do 120,000 pounds of hemp hearts per month, a sixfold increase. But that's not all. The new production line features “patented processing technology” that Rosen said, “delivers cleaner flavor, higher yields for us in the plant, and functional formats that really meet the expectations of major food manufacturers." “We are a food ingredient manufacturer. That's the core of what we do,” Rosen said. Hemp heart protein and oil are the core of Victory's business, but the new processing technology also allowed Victory to launch value-added ingredient formats like puffs, crisps, clusters and textured proteins. “We've evolved beyond hemp hearts,” Rosen said. “The idea is to maximize the economic and nutritional value of the hemp seed.” Victory's products appear in a wide range of consumer foods, from gluten-free Texas toast to meal replacement shakes and post-workout smoothies. But you'll have to read the ingredients to find hemp. “We see a lot more traction with the customers that don't advertise hemp on the front of the box,” Rosen said. “What they advertise is transparent supply chains or protein boosts or omega-3 claims.” This low-key marketing strategy reflects lingering stigma—and regulatory confusion—surrounding hemp-derived products. Rosen is optimistic but realistic about the hurdles still facing U.S. hemp grain farmers. “We have to do a lot of the heavy lifting up front and on the back end to guarantee farmers are going to be able to compete,” he said. On this episode you can expect to hear where hemp food ingredients are going, how Victory Hemp Foods is scaling production, and what it will take for U.S. farmers to meet future demand. Also on the show, we touch on Hemp History Month, the upcoming NIHC Global Hemp Fiber Summit in Raleigh, and how hemp can bring manufacturing back to small-town America.

[3:59] We will also talk about how Tamieka helps drive a culture of safety at Southwire, in the spirit of National Electrical Safety Month, coming up in May. [4:08] Interview! Tamieka Weeks, welcome to RIMScast!  [4:31] Tamieka Weeks started as a claims adjuster with a finance degree. Her career has been so different from many. Tamieka hopes all will take their journey for what it's worth and be proud of their accomplishments. [5:08] When someone approaches you with an opportunity, say Yes! Don't turn it down. You never know what doors may open. As a former claims adjuster, and now the Director of Global Risk Management and Insurance, she wants to have a relationship with the claims adjusters. [5:45] In a file review, Tamieka wants to know the why behind an insurance policy. She purchases a policy with the intent of protecting Southwire's assets. [6:29] Southwire is about an hour west of Atlanta, in Carrollton, Georgia. It is the leading manufacturer of wiring cable. Southwire will celebrate 75 years in March of 2030. Southwire is excited about where it is today and is looking forward to continuing to grow globally. [7:13] Tamieka knows to expect the unexpected and be able to pivot. She never knows what may come up in a day. She is open. She knows she is there to support the organization. [7:38] Tamieka is a trusted advisor and a subject matter expert within the organization. She prides herself on ensuring that everyone knows that she is here to support them. [7:54] Southwire has 9,000 employees. In November 2024, Southwire launched a risk management SharePoint site. It goes into risk management insurance definitions and surety bonds definitions. It's all about sharing the knowledge of the industry. [8:26] The SharePoint site also provides the claims reporting. Tamieka educates the employees on what to do when an incident occurs. The first thing is to report the claim to the TPA. If they have any questions, they can contact Tamieka. Tamieka is also responsible for surety bonds. [9:16] There is a checklist for property claims and those are reported to Tamieka. The instructions for what needs to happen on a property claim are on the SharePoint site. It's important to notify Tamieka so she can report the property claim. [9:32] It's all about everyone being aware of what needs to happen about an event. [9:41] Tamieka has been with Southwire for almost 12 years. She helped build the risk culture at Southwire. It's been a fun ride, for sure! [9:53] Tamieka partnered with several team members to develop the SharePoint site. It's been exciting for the organization. It was launched by the IT department and several others. Tamieka had spoken with risk professionals throughout the industry about what they were launching. [10:33] The beauty of the risk industry is that we don't have to reinvent the wheel. It's all about what we can do to enhance their organization through process improvement. [11:00] When Tamieka started with Southwire, she was busy administering certificates of insurance. The SharePoint site streamlines everything in a central location. People can see their insurance limits, request what they need, and submit information to their insurance brokers. [11:45] Tamieka's risk team of about 5 people reports to the General Counsel department. [12:27] Plug Time! RIMS Webinars!

[14:18] When Tamieka joined risk management, she loved it instantly because it's continually evolving. The market and your company are evolving and you have to be able to embrace the change. There are always new risks and emerging risks. [14:43] Once, cyber risk was new. Now the new risk we're talking about is AI. Who knows what new risk we will be talking about in the next nine months to a year? To be in the risk management industry, you have to love it to wake up each day not knowing what to expect. [15:16] Tamiela says the meaningful relationships that we establish from day to day, month to month, and year to year are truly amazing. The industry is amazing, as well, from Atlanta to global. She is excited about RISKWORLD 2025 in Chicago. [15:43] RISKWORLD 2025 will be held from May 4th through May 7th, in Chicago, Illinois. [15:47] May is also National Electrical Safety Awareness Month in the U.S. Southwire is always focused on safety, with monthly training for team members. They focus on team members from entering the facilities to exiting the facilities. Safety is number one. [16:28] Southwire's Environmental Health and Safety Department strives for safety. Southwire recently completed Lockout/Tagout training, a safety procedure for properly shutting off equipment to ensure that no one is accidentally injured if machinery is being serviced. [17:01] Tamieka says labeling is placed on Southwire wires and cables to ensure the customers are aware of how to use the products. Customers can also download information on the safe use of Southwire products. This is part of Southwire's Environmental Health and Safety efforts. [17:43] RIMS Plug!

[19:10] Tamieka describes practicing risk management in the greater Atlanta area. She says it's all about the people and the risk management community. Everybody just loves everybody! It's Southern hospitality. When she joined the Atlanta RIMS Chapter, it was very welcoming. [19:34] When Tamieka joined the board, the board members saw so much potential in her. They assured her she could do this. Tamieka says Atlanta is the land of opportunity. Tamieka joined the chapter in 2013. She became the first Black female President of the Atlanta Chapter. [20:38] Tamieka became Chapter President during COVID-19. Her thoughts were about what she could do to make the organization better and what she could do for succession planning. [20:59] Members were at home. Tamieka connected with the previous presidents and prior board members. No one was in person. Tamieka asked the previous officers for their notes. They were happy to talk and share ideas to make the chapter succeed. [22:02] That moment was more about the Chapter and less about Tamieka. Tamieka built committees and sent surveys. Tamieka wanted to hear what the members had to say. She gave the board and members a voice. It was a fun time, working to make the chapter better. [22:44] The feedback from past presidents was the foundation to win 2022 Chapter of the Year! Their ability and willingness to help Tamieka in her role made the RIMS Atlanta Chapter special. [23:33] The chapter had a virtual social hour with a mixologist. They had a virtual trivia game. They had a virtual mentor event. They raised money at a Virtual Aid Conference. They were creative in everything they did. They were able to connect with members in a challenging time. [24:20] The surveys were critical. They partnered with global RIMS to enhance their bylaws. The new bylaws permitted the board to meet virtually. They changed their chapter website. They made many improvements to the chapter's success. [24:58] In 2025, Tamieka received the Walter H. Buce Jr. Memorial Award which honors the insurance and risk management professional of the year in the RIMS Atlanta Chapter. Tamieka calls the award overwhelming. She is deeply honored. It means the world to her. [26:04] Tamieka's advice for young risk professionals: “Stay focused. When others see potential in you, listen to them. Don't shy away. Work hard. Set clear goals. Trust in yourself. Stay dedicated. Be persistent. Be intentional. Your path will eventually reveal itself. [29:29] “You're going to have people around you that are going to be your cheerleaders. Please find a mentor. They're going to support you along the way. In Atlanta, I would also say we have focused on bridging the gap of rising risk professionals and students entering the industry.” [27:08] “The RIMS Atlanta Chapter has embraced what we can do to help and support the young professionals who are focused on entering the industry soon. That's been a huge success for the RIMS Atlanta Chapter, as well.” [27:28] Tamieka Weeks, It's such a pleasure to see you again. I look forward to seeing you after this episode comes out, at RISKWORLD 2025 in Chicago. Tamieka is looking forward to seeing everyone, It's going to be a great RISKWORLD!

Show Notes: Making Millions, Losing Millions, and Still Thriving with Alison GroomsYou ever look at a super successful business owner and think, Damn, they must have it all figured out? Yeah, no. That's not how this works.This week on The Embodied Baddie Podcast, I'm sitting down with the incredible Alison, owner of Jules & James Boutique and Jazz Cosmetics. And let me tell you—this convo is a goldmine for every retail entrepreneur who has ever doubted themselves, stressed over inventory, or wondered if they're secretly screwing everything up.Alison built a multi-million dollar business almost by accident, rode the wild waves of scaling, and even landed on the Inc. 500 list—only to see a $2M revenue dip right after. (Cue existential crisis.) She keeps it real about the stress, the imposter syndrome, and why business success does not guarantee inner peace.If you've ever felt like you're just winging it while everyone else seems to have a game plan—this episode is for you.What We Talk About:

This episode is part of our series, "Courageous Pastors" featuring inspiring stories from bold American pastors. In this episode, we are joined by Pastor Chris McRae from Sojourn Church in Carrollton, TX, and he passionately shares his personal testimony, demonstrating his courage in addressing biblical issues and pressing cultural topics.

In Episode 16, Representative-elect Mitch Little of Texas House District 65 joined Lisa O'Brien to talk about State of Texas v. Robert Leslie Roberson, III. Since 2016, Roberson's post-conviction attorneys and advocates, who were recently joined by Texas legislators, have engaged in a campaign of disinformation with the courts and the public in which they claim that Roberson's conviction rests on a diagnosis of Shaken Baby Syndrome/Abusive Head Trauma. Legislators issued a last-minute subpoena commanding Roberson's appearance before their committee on October 21, 2024 and, with a last minute stay granted by the Texas Supreme Court, they were able to prevent his sentence from being carried out on October 17, 2024. We talked about the facts of the case, the truth about Nikki's cause of death and the court proceedings and extra-judicial shenanigans of Roberson's advocates. About Mitch Little:Mitch is a native Texan, who attended Harvard University where he graduated with honors in Government and played football for the Crimson for four years. In 2003, he earned his law degree from the University of Texas and is a successful business attorney. Mitch has fought for private property rights, represented victims of securities fraud, and helped entrepreneurs build companies in numerous industries, including real estate and oil and gas.. Mitch and his wife Kelly are proud parents to Molly, Matthew, and Lucy and they're all active members of Sojourn Church in Carrollton.

Each finalist exemplifies dedication to education, focusing on student engagement, equity, and leadership.

Five individuals have been arrested in Carrollton, Kentucky, after a horrifying discovery by law enforcement of a 2-year-old boy found "unclothed" in a caged area, littered with urine and feces. The arrests come after a community tip led police to a property on 7th Street. Detective Dave Roberts of the Carrollton Police Department, alongside Sgt. Taylor, responded to reports on Monday, November 4. “Upon arrival, Detective Roberts and Sgt. Taylor located a male child, unclothed and under the age of 3, that was locked behind a wooden and metal enclosure that was secured with a padlock,” the police explained in a Facebook post. The individuals arrested and facing charges of criminal abuse and wanton endangerment include Brenda Chilton, 71; William Mahoney, 72; Codey Johnson, 29; Tammy Simmons, 52; all of Carrollton; and Shelby Turocy, 28, of Ghent, Kentucky. Turocy also faces additional charges for possession of methamphetamine, possession of drug paraphernalia, and possession of marijuana. Police secured the scene and executed a search warrant with the help of Chief Willhoite, Assistant Chief Dews, and Sgt. Dews. Two children were subsequently removed from the home by the Cabinet for Health and Family Services. In an interview with local news outlet WDRB, Detective Roberts described the appalling conditions. "A child was behind there, completely unclothed," he said. "There was feces, and then you're in that contained area." Roberts also revealed that a delivery driver had initially alerted authorities after observing a child locked in what appeared to be a cage. Additionally, eight to ten dogs, described as being in poor health, were found at the property. The Carrollton Police Department has not confirmed whether the boy is related to any of the five suspects, who are currently being held at The Carroll County Detention Center. Detective Roberts stressed the critical role the community plays in protecting children. “If you see something, say something,” he stated to WDRB. “This case serves as a reminder of the vital role that bystanders can play in ensuring the safety and well-being of vulnerable children.” The investigation into this disturbing case is ongoing. The Carrollton Police Department has yet to provide additional comments and did not immediately respond when contacted by PEOPLE for more details. #CrimeNews #ChildSafety #KentuckyNews #CommunityTip #CarrolltonPolice #ChildAbuse #BreakingNews Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

"We think of God's love and God's anger as at odds with one another. That's because we don't understand God's love or God's anger."John Mark challenges our perceptions of God, both the God who is always angry and the God who never gets angry, by showing in the Scriptures how God is both patient and wrathful, and why both are important for our understanding of who God is and what that means for us in our lives.Key Scripture Passages: Exodus 34v6-7, Matthew 21v12-14, James 1v19-20, 5v7-8This podcast and its episodes are paid for by The Circle, our community of monthly givers.
