2 Peter series message 10Text: II Peter 2:17-22Peter continues his description of false teachers as they lead many astray from the truth. Their chaotic inner turmoil is exposed, as well as their pending judgement.

We continue our series in the Gospel According to Mark—Kingdom Come, God's Reign in a Chaotic World. This week Mark records for us what many scholars would agree is one of the most significant parables that Jesus ever gave. Known as the Parable of the Soils, it is the first of several parables that Jesus offers in Mark, that reveal for us and those in that day, how one might enter the Kingdom of God, what the Kingdom of God is like and finally, how the Kingdom of God inaugurated in Jesus grows! Read Mark 4:1-20 in advance to prepare for the message, and remember to bring your Study Guides!

We continue our series in the Gospel According to Mark—Kingdom Come, God's Reign in a Chaotic World. This week we move into a longer passage in which all of the events may not, upon first reading, appear to be connected. The passage is bookended with Mark recording what appear to be two separate 'interventions' by the family of Jesus, who are concerned about His welfare. In addition, the religious Scribes take their accusations against Jesus to a new low, accusing Him of having a demon. Jesus' response is both a parable and a strong rebuke. Throughout the whole of the text there is however, a unifying theme, that we will see on Sunday. Read Mark 3:20-35 in advance to prepare for the message, and remember to bring your Study Guides!

Subject: Peace In A Chaotic World Speaker or Performer: Pastor Grover Cleveland Scripture Passage(s): John 14:25-31 Date of Delivery: November 16, 2025 Peace In A Chaotic WorldJohn 14:25-31 NKJV25 “These things I have spoken to you while being present with you. 26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. 27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 28 You have heard Me say to you, ‘I am going away and coming back to you.’ If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, ‘I am going to the Father,’ for My Father is greater than I.29 “And now I have told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe. 30 I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in Me. 31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father gave Me commandment, so I do. Arise, let us go from here.

In a world that feels increasingly chaotic—economically, socially, and emotionally—how do we stay focused long enough to see opportunity when others only see crisis? In this episode, we dive deep into that question with Emerick, Bo, and Julia, unpacking what it means to "find opportunity in a chaotic world."We explore why chaos is often the birthplace of wealth, how to shift from self-preservation to collaboration, and why relationships—not resources—are the true measure of power. We talk about staying in our "gift zone," maintaining discernment in uncertainty, and preparing for opportunities before they appear.At its heart, this conversation is about mindset and movement: seeing the moment for what it is, acting with clarity, and trusting that collective strength creates lasting wealth.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyFollow Bo Menkiti on InstagramFollow Emerick Peace on InstagramFollow Julia Lashay on InstagramBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Megan chats with Diane Woodford about living a life led by love, embracing purpose in uncertainty, and why the most powerful thing food bloggers can do right now is be deeply human. Diane Woodford is a retired critical healthcare professional and educator. She is also a published author, speaker, philanthropist, co-host of Love Drops Podcast, creator of Paths2transformation website, and world traveler. With a deep commitment to serving humanity, Diane focuses on mentoring young women and raising the energy wherever she goes. Diane is currently traveling around Europe with her husband Charles on a remarkable journey, embodying love in action as One Love Ambassadors spreading love at every stop while making incredible human connections. Diane Woodford shares her journey of traveling the world with her husband, Charles, spreading compassion and human connection wherever they go. From overcoming near tragedy to offering hope through storytelling, Diane reminds us that love is the ultimate creative force and the one energy that crosses all barriers. She challenges us to quiet the noise, trust the nudge, and create from the heart, because that's where real impact begins. Key points discussed include: Say yes to the adventure: When you follow the quiet nudge inside, your path unfolds with purpose. Lead with love, not fear: Your energy changes a room long before your words do. Human connection beats AI every time: No algorithm can taste your food, feel your story, or replicate your presence. Let it come, let it be, let it go: A simple mantra to move through chaos with grace. Turn pain into purpose: Even life's hardest storms can become spaces for healing others. Stay present: Joy and clarity live in the "now," not in the what-ifs or should-haves. Forgive to free yourself: Love isn't weakness, it's the boldest form of strength. Be here now: When you stop forcing outcomes, everything you need finds you. Connect with Diane Woodford Website

In today's episode, I sit down with Amber Vilhauer, a visionary entrepreneur who transformed a painful past into a purpose-driven life of service and impact. We talk about resilience, faith, and the mindset that separates those who quit from those who keep going when evidence seems stacked against them. I share how prioritizing intention over attention creates clarity amid chaos, why imagination is essential to seeing what's real, and how non-negotiables like sleep, health, and family anchor true success. Together, Amber and I explore what it means to love the hard parts of life and turn adversity into divine direction.

I am back, BIPOC AA/PI lovelies. I did a thing and wrote a second book. Hoodoo Saints & Root Warriors: Stories and Magick for Liberation. Let's talk about that time away from you and my journey into the far reaches of writing. I also want to dive back into The Next World Tarot by Cristy C. Road. The 4 of Wands wants us to find a slice of joy each day. We can't let our enthusiasm for life dwindle because of the obvious bullshit going on. We have got to fight through the inflammation that is America and begin to heal ourselves whole. We got this; let's move together.

Today we continue our series in the Gospel According to Mark—Kingdom Come, God's Reign in a Chaotic World. This week Mark walks us through a pivotal point in the life and ministry life of Christ as well as His disciples. Great crowds are following Jesus and from distances far and wide. Their number is so great Jesus becomes concerned for His safety. Then, after another declaration of His divinity by more demons, Jesus calls 12 men to leave the crowds behind and be with Him. This is the call we all long to hear. How we respond is the key to life today and for all eternity. Read Mark 3:7-19 in advance to prepare for the message, and remember to bring your Study Guides!

Staying Focused and Integral In A Treacherous & Chaotic World By Mary Lindow   A FEW YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A CRUCIAL PROJECT, I found my life barraged and pressured by distractions of all kinds. Now, this is not an unusual pattern. DISTRACTIONS COME TO STEAL OUR PASSION, OUR PURPOSE, GOD'S PROMISES, AND HIS PROVISION.   I have a scripture and a strategy that I use when distractions come to derail my focus now that really helps to keep me on track and focus on what's in front of me. This can apply to everything from work, house cleaning, Counseling, writing and ministry, right down to sticking with the list for the grocery store, and not adding extra cheese and crackers and other goodies in the shopping basket!   WHEN NEHEMIAH WAS REBUILDING THE WALL, distractions came in the form of men calling out to him, high up on his ladder, to come down to discuss “their” important matters. These men presented concerns and rumors they feared to be truth, and, they were persistent and insistent that he come down and address the matters with them immediately! Nehemiah responds plainly,  "I cannot come down, I am doing a great work."   THERE ARE MANY DISTRACTIONS BEING HURLED AT THE BODY OF CHRIST CONSTANTLY. So what do we do?  We look those distractions square in the face and we say, "We cannot come down. We are doing a great work."  End. Of. Story.   WE HAVE NO TIME FOR DISTRACTIONS.  THERE'S TOO MUCH ON THE LINE. There's restoration to be done, broken down walls and broken down people to be filled back up, truth to be told, healing to be performed, love and justice to manifest and so on.   AND WHILE WE ARE DOING THESE ASSIGNED BY THE LORD TASKS,  (because if they're not assigned by the Lord then we're basically doing our own thing, not his important work), while we are doing the assigned things from the Lord, we pray.  And by that I mean, we dialog with God our Father, and praise, and tell Jesus about the gratitude that we have for His life that He poured out for us, and speak back to Him the words He taught us in the 4 New Testament Gospels. And, we also allow the Holy Spirit of God to have access to our hearts, bringing a sweet exposure and conviction where we might need to have our hearts cleaned up and "grown up" further in the way God has mapped out for those He loves so very much.   When we do these things in reverence and determination as we work, You will find that we do not have time for distractions.    WHEN GOD SPEAKS AND WHEN WE FELLOWSHIP WITH JESUS, and when the Holy Spirit is busy working in the dry and hard places of our souls, as we do that in our work, every single day, we do not have time for other distractions!   We. Cannot. Come. Down.    WE CANNOT TAKE TIME TO BE PULLED INTO CONVERSATIONS THAT ARE WICKED, "weasely", and filled with all kinds of narratives that have nothing to do with what God has and IS doing right now right in front of us in our daily lives.   THAT DOES NOT MEAN WE ARE NOT TO BE INFORMED AND... ...that we are not to be advocates for godly truths. That is part of rebuilding walls that have come down in our society. But getting into non-ending dialogs and basically verbal fights with people who just want to prove a point is literally drawing us into distraction and frustration.   SPIRITUAL WARFARE. It's a Reality and Intense Fight for Good Over Evil!  Listen ever so closely to these mighty battle strategies against distractions!   Now my beloved ones,  I have saved these most important truths for last Instructions. Be supernaturally infused with strength through your life-your union with the Lord Jesus. Stand victorious with the force of his explosive power flowing in and through you.  Put on God's complete set of armor provided for us, so that you will be protected as you fight against the evil strategies of the accuser! Your hand-to-hand combat is not with human beings, but with the highest principalities and authorities operating in rebellion under the heavenly realms.  For they are a powerful class of demon-gods and evil spirits that hold this dark world in bondage.  Because of this, you must wear all the armor that God provides so you're protected as you confront the slanderer, for you are destined for all glorious and godly things and will rise victorious. - Ephesians 6: 10-13   FRIENDS IN THE FIGHT AGAINST GOOD AND EVIL! We are doing a great work!  We are obeying God!  And, let's hope that we aren't doing it with haughtiness or an attitude of being a little better than everyone else in the way that we serve God! No way! Someone whom God has called to rebuild or to restore and to do every day jobs, understands that the distractions of ego or the distractions of frustration, often create breaks in relationships, breaks in friendships, and it kills the opportunity to have peace with God fully.   SO FRIENDS!  REFOCUS. Do not negotiate with distractions.  Simply move on and put your hands to the great work before you. Humbly. Purposefully.  Without an attitude of needing to prove you're heroic.   WE WORK, WE SERVE, WE LOVE, AND WE FIGHT, with our eyes focused on the One who rides at the forefront of our battles. He's there day and night, radiating comfort, wisdom, and grants discernment for every challenging situation that you and I will face.   MY FINAL PRAYER FOR YOU AS I CLOSE OUT TODAY'S PODCAST, is from Hebrews 13:21 “May God Equip You With All You Need For Doing His Will.  May He Produce In You, Through The Power Of Jesus Christ,  Every Good Thing That Is Pleasing To Him. All Glory To Him Forever And Ever! Amen.”   STAY STEADY ON WARRIORS.   WE CANNOT COME DOWN TO NEGOTIATE WITH DISTRACTIONS.  WE HAVE GOD'S WORK TO DO.   Duplication and sharing of this writing is welcomed provided that complete source, podcast and website information for Mary Lindow is included.

This past Sunday, we invited one another to re-center amid the noise and chaos of our world. As we began the new sermon series “Simple Rules for a Chaotic World,” we reflected on how boundaries, obedience, and accountability shape the way we show up in uncertain times. Over the next few weeks, we'll be exploring what it means to cultivate simple rules for our lives — to do no harm, do good, and attend to the ordinances of God — as we seek to live with intention, compassion, and grace.

From building resilience during COVID to staying true to her mission of protecting farmers, Martha reveals how she creates certainty where others see chaos and why she believes every success begins with service to the grower.

Have you ever wondered why modern parenting feels more challenging than ever before? In this eye-opening conversation with licensed family therapist Todd Sarner, we explore how parents can transform daily stress and disconnection into calm, confident leadership at home.Todd shares his profound insight that effective parenting starts with placing relationship first. Drawing from decades of experience helping thousands of families, he reveals that most parenting should be proactive rather than reactive—focusing on building strong connections, creating supportive environments, and developing crucial maturity processes in children.The discussion delves into three essential maturity processes children need to develop: integrative energy (the ability to weigh different perspectives), emergent energy (creativity and self-expression), and adaptive energy (processing frustration and change). Todd explains how technology and social media can interfere with these natural developmental processes, leaving children ill-equipped to handle life's inevitable challenges.Perhaps most powerfully, Todd emphasizes that "empathy does not mean you agree"—encouraging parents to take time understanding their child's experience before problem-solving. This simple shift in approach creates the connection children need to naturally want to cooperate. As he notes, "When we're connected and honoring the connection, you don't need to convince me to do stuff most of the time."With the rapid advancement of AI and technology presenting unprecedented challenges for families, Todd's attachment-first approach offers a refreshing perspective on what children truly need from parents that no technology can provide: genuine empathy, emotional regulation, and human connection.Tune in to transform your approach to parenting and discover how to create the calm, confident home environment your family deserves.

The world feels chaotic right now, doesn't it? With constant bad news, cultural pressure, and endless noise, it's easy to feel like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders. But here's the truth: you were never meant to hold it all. In this episode, I share: Why it's okay to release what you were never designed to carry. How to shift from leading out of pressure to leading from peace and overflow. The importance of listening for God's specific direction instead of bowing to fear or outside expectations. A guided Lectio Divina with Psalm 23 to help you pause and practice hearing His voice. I know rest doesn't come easy for leaders—but it's exactly what you need most. That's why I created the Secret Place Retreat. This is your invitation to step away from the noise, breathe deeply, and encounter God in a way that restores your soul and gives you fresh clarity for the season ahead.

Today, Eric is excited to welcome Megan Nolan, the founder of Vitality Wellness in Maui.  With extensive experience in yoga, mental health, and wellbeing, Megan brings powerful tools to support small business owners and professionals within the meetings and events industry. About Megan Nolan Megan Nolan is a yoga teacher and personal trainer based in Maui. She combines movement, mindfulness, and strength training to help people improve their posture, energy, and mental focus. Beyond individual sessions, she specializes in bringing wellness into the conference and events industry by leading yoga, breathwork, and “power pauses” that energize participants and boost engagement. Her mission is to make healthy habits accessible, fun, and sustainable, whether for individuals, teams, or large audiences. Generational Awareness of Health Younger generations are highly aware of their mental and physical health. They openly communicate about emotions, seek out wellness tools, and tune into their bodies. Older generations, by contrast, often adapt more slowly. Technology and Posture Today's youth are growing up with devices in their hands, and it shows in their posture. Postures previously associated with aging are now common, even in children, driven by extended hours of sitting and screen use. Preventing and Correcting Rounded Posture Megan highlights that a rounded posture is preventable and, to some extent, correctable at any age. Even into the 90s, the body is capable of gaining bone density and muscle strength. Through neuroplasticity, the body can adapt when weak muscles are strengthened and tight tissues are stretched. While skeletal issues may limit the degree of improvement, regular movement and targeted exercises can restore alignment and function. The Toll of Sitting Sitting for eight to ten hours a day quickly reshapes the body. Extended events or workdays often leave people feeling one with the chair, collapsing into poor posture. That reduces energy, focus, and creativity. Megan recommends taking short breaks to stand up, stretch, or strike a power pose to instantly improve attention, boost creative thinking, and sustain productivity. Hot Yoga: Trend or Health Tool? Practiced in rooms heated to about 105°F, hot yoga can help soften tissues and deepen flexibility. However, Megan cautions that most people are dehydrated, and the extreme heat places extra strain on the heart. Without strong body awareness, participants may overstretch tendons and ligaments. For those who are healthy, hydrated, and experienced, hot yoga can be beneficial. For most others, Megan recommends warm yoga as a safer alternative. Power Pauses and Adult Recess Megan has developed the concept of power pauses, short, intentional breaks for breathwork, stretching, or light movement. These re-energize participants during long events, especially after meals. She frames them as “adult recess,” making wellness fun, inclusive, and highly effective for engagement and focus. Wellness at Events Megan integrates yoga, breathwork, and energizing breaks into conferences and events, both in Maui and virtually. She often starts mornings with grounding practices, weaves in power pauses throughout the agenda, and closes with mindful exercises. Her keynote, Habits of a Happy Human: Small Shifts for a Chaotic World, adds another layer of impact, helping participants stay engaged, energized, and connected.

Stress has a way of sneaking into every part of our lives—our thoughts, our bodies, even our sleep. If you’ve ever faced anxiety so heavy it led to nightmares or physical strain, you’re not alone. Today’s reflection from Vivian Bricker reminds us that even in overwhelming seasons, God offers consolation and joy, just as Psalm 94:19 declares: “When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.” Sometimes the bravest, most faith-filled choice we can make is to step away from the people, places, or situations fueling our stress and instead turn toward God’s presence. His peace is not earned—it’s a gift. And in Him, we find strength to set boundaries, rest in His promises, and release the pressure we were never meant to carry alone. Main Takeaways Stress can manifest physically and emotionally, but God invites us to bring it all to Him. Boundaries are not selfish; they are often necessary for health and healing. Psalm 94:19 reminds us that God’s consolation brings joy even in the heaviest seasons. Choosing to step away from harmful stressors creates space for God’s peace to guard our hearts. Bible Verse References Psalm 94:19 – “When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.” 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 – God’s strength is made perfect in our weakness. 1 Peter 5:7 – Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.

It's a pleasure to share a conversation with Ani Lodro Palmo, an ordained Tibetan Buddhist nun and Director of the Vajra Vidya Monastery in Crestone, Colorado; and a spiritual teacher and author with more than three decades of monastic experience. Ani has devoted her life to spiritual practice and shares her understanding of the Dharma as an author of the books, All That Appears & Exists: The Buddha's Teachings to Awaken the Heart and Turn Suffering Into Joy and her most recent, The End of Suffering: Finding Love, Self-Compassion, and Awakening in a Chaotic World. As a recognized teacher of Tibetan Buddhist philosophy and meditation, Ani Lodro's insights are deeply rooted in the unbroken lineage of Buddhist wisdom, through the Karma Kagyu lineage of The Venerable Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche. Although Ani has decades of monastic experience within Tibetan Buddhism, she teaches how the frustrations and dissatisfaction of our everyday lives can be understood and transcended through wisdom and compassion. She writes and speaks in an accessible way, with the gentle encouragement of a friend that is helpful to both new seekers and seasoned practitioners alike. Her teachings are available through retreats, online sessions, and publications. In the conversation we talked about a wide range things, including: How we tend to misunderstanding what suffering is. Gurus and reincarnation as a part of Tibetan Buddhism, but not a necessary part. The Four Noble Truths as a path to awakening. Taking the mystique from karma, as Ani writes: "transforming [it] from an enigmatic doctrine into a practical guide for conscious existence…. rooted in intention and behavior." Her teaching of the "7 Simple Truths to End Suffering": (1) Thoughts are nothing, they are no things; (2) Labels and thoughts create our reality; (3) When we look for our thoughts, they aren't there; (4) Your beliefs are not truth; (5) Dropping attachments is the fastest way to end suffering; (6)You can't focus on helping others and be miserable at the same time; (7) You don't need your mind (as much as you think). ... And much more.
