This would be a great Christmas present for the children in your lives. The Remaining 6 Characteristics of a Healthy Family:   Family members can be different. Parents do what they say, and they are self-disciplined disciplinarians. Roles are flexible and chosen; no one person “always” has the same “job.” Rules require accountability. Violation of healthy family values leads to guilt. Mistakes are forgiven and viewed as learning tools. Parents are aware of not being God; they have healthy shame. In healthy relationships six general principles create a foundation for emotional, spiritual, and relational development:   I can talk openly about things that are important to me. I can name my feelings, values, beliefs, and keep my behaviors consistent with them. I can define the limits of what I can comfortably do or give. I can clarify what is acceptable or tolerable in a relationship. I can share my vulnerabilities and competencies with others. I can give others permission to do the same things.

 Becoming the Man God Calls You to Be Scripture:“Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” – 1 Corinthians 16:13–14 The Quiet Drift Away Every man has drawn a line in the sand—vowing never to cross it. Maybe it's a moral boundary, a promise to your wife, or a commitment to purity. Yet one day, you look up and realize you're miles past that line. Not because of one big decision, but because of many small ones. That's how compromise works—it erodes your convictions inch by inch. That's why developing godly characteristics isn't a one-time choice. It's a daily surrender. The world around us constantly tugs at our attention, our habits, and our hearts. But the measure of a biblical man isn't how close he can stand to the edge—it's how firmly he stands in truth. What You Take In Shapes Who You Become The podcast highlights a powerful truth: what you feed your mind will shape your soul. Whether it's the shows you stream, the music you listen to, or the conversations you keep—your input determines your output. Jesus warned that “out of the abundance […] The post Godly Characteristics appeared first on UNCOMMEN.

In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I dive deep into a topic that quietly sabotages many Christian entrepreneurs: double-mindedness. I felt compelled to share this prophetic word, knowing that many of us have experienced the tension between faith and fear at various points in our lives. We explore how double-mindedness shows up. Not through a lack of talent or opportunity, but as a split between believing in God's provision while simultaneously worrying about our decisions. This internal conflict can cost us peace, money, and momentum in our callings. I emphasize that God is not vague, and the Holy Spirit is not confusing; therefore, we shouldn't feel the need to hedge our bets when it comes to our faith. I reference James 1:5-8, which highlights the importance of asking God for wisdom in faith without doubting. I clarify that doubt, in this biblical context, is more than mere skepticism; it can lead to a state of double-mindedness, which is essentially doubt that has taken root. I break down the concept of double-mindedness, explaining that it can be characterized by a weak will, divided interests, and a lack of commitment to our faith.   Ready to GROW in your faith and calling??

What if the life you're living is just a metaphor for the life you're meant to live? Pressfield kept his typewriter buried under spare parts in his truck. He knew it was there. Thought about it constantly. But he was too terrified to dig it out and write. So he drove. For years. Shadow callings aren't about laziness—they're about proximity without risk. We fall into fixed mindset thinking this is all we can do. We become English teachers instead of novelists, consultants instead of founders, gallery workers instead of artists. We stay close enough to feel legitimate, far enough to avoid the real work. This episode breaks down why your brain creates these elaborate escape mechanisms, what separates amateurs from professionals, and the exact moment everything changes. You'll learn: How to recognize if you're living a shadow career right now The 20 habits that separate professionals from amateurs Why turning pro is a decision you remake every single day SPONSORS

Perfect isn't functional. An atmosphere of perfection is oppressive; it is just as damaging as a chaotic atmosphere is abandoning. Neither a perfectionistic nor a chaotic atmosphere advance emotional, spiritual, and relational growth. To parent well, we need to be willing to seek aid, wisdom, and courage from God and others. No one has all the answers, but our humility can allow us to have more than we would have without asking.   There are six basic principles to creating a functional relational system, one in which relationship and health is the primary concern, whether it be a family, friendship or marriage: I can talk openly about things that are important to me. I can name my feelings, beliefs, and values, and keep my behaviors consistent with them. I can define the limits of what I can comfortably do or give. I can clarify the limits of what is acceptable or tolerable in the relationship. I can openly share my vulnerabilities and competencies with others. I can give permission and support others in doing the same things.   Click here to continue reading the episode highlights.

Sincerity, Transience, and the Domestic Focus of Berthe Morisot's Art. Sebastian Smee discusses how the Impressionists' defining characteristic was plein air painting—painting outside directly in front of the subject. Berthe Morisot was highly innovative, concentrating on women at home doing ordinary, domestic activities. Her work was quick, often using only a few brushstrokes, conveying the impression of a moment glimpsed. Morisot was one of the most radical Impressionists in her style, frequently leaving large parts of the canvas bare to emphasize the feeling of something "quickly caught as if on the fly." Smee identifies her as a "real poet" of fugitive effects and threshold states, often painting adolescent girls at the "cusp of adulthood." Her acute awareness of life's transience and fragility was evident in her style.

What makes a business partnership work, and what quietly tears it apart? In this solo episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh dives into the hidden dynamics that can build or break partnerships. He explains that success isn't just about shared goals or profits but about true alignment. Through the idea of “scorecards,” Darius shows how partners can unknowingly measure success in completely different ways. Drawing from his own entrepreneurial experiences, he highlights why clarity, transparency, and shared values are key, and how defining a common scorecard can keep partnerships strong and thriving.

What gives someone the courage to stand up for truth—even when it costs them everything? Martin Luther’s bold stand for the Gospel wasn’t born from rebellion but from revelation. Rooted in Ephesians 2:8, his discovery that salvation comes by grace through faith ignited a movement that changed history. Having the heart of a reformer means loving God, loving His Church, and being unwilling to compromise the truth of Scripture—no matter the consequences. Highlights A reformer’s heart begins with a deep passion to draw close to God and live by His Word. Luther’s relentless study of Scripture led him to uncover the truth of salvation by grace, not works. True reformers love the Church enough to seek its correction, not its destruction. Luther’s bold action—nailing his 95 Theses—sparked a spiritual awakening that shaped Christianity. Sharing the truth requires courage, humility, and a willingness to face rejection. Luther’s legacy reminds us that faithfulness to God’s Word outweighs fear of man. Every believer is called to carry that same conviction—to speak truth in love and protect the purity of the Gospel.

Businesses are spending millions on AI tools hoping to accelerate time-to-market but aren't seeing organizational-level results. Laura Tacho (CTO @ DX) explains why an "individual productivity" mindset fails and how AI merely accelerates the condition of the system it enters.

Plus Laura shares data literacy tools to cut through the "whiplash" of conflicting AI reports and provides key considerations for 2026 budgeting, detailing where and how companies are planning to strategically invest.ABOUT LAURA TACHOLaura Tacho is CTO at DX, a developer experience company.

2. Demographics and Despair: The Activities of Men Not in the Labor Force Nicholas Eberstadt Book: Men Without Work (Post-Pandemic Edition) Eberstadt investigates the characteristics of the 7.2 million men "not in the labor force" (NILF) as of 2015. Foreign-born men and married men with children are highly likely to be at work, regardless of educational background. Conversely, those who are neither employed nor in education or training (NEET) report engaging in remarkably little civic life, charity, or household help. Time use surveys suggest these NEET men spend the equivalent of a full-time job—around 2,000 hours a year—watching screens. This inactivity is linked to profound misery, as almost half of these men report taking pain medication daily, contributing to rising "deaths of despair" (suicide, overdoses, cirrhosis). 1927 NYSE

As a pediatrician, I know how stressful it can feel when you're filling out those developmental questionnaires at your child's checkup. You check a few “no” boxes, and suddenly you're spiraling! What does this mean? Should I be worried? In this episode, I sit down with an autism specialist to talk through what some of those screening questions actually mean and how they're meant to be interpreted. We look at common items from the M-CHAT like pointing, pretend play, and responding to their name and unpack why these aren't simple yes-or-no milestones. We talk about what's typical, what might be worth keeping an eye on, and how to bring up your concerns in a productive way with your child's doctor. Most importantly, we discuss why one missed skill doesn't equal a diagnosis, and how to focus on the whole picture of your child's development. We discuss: Why the M-CHAT can sometimes create more confusion than clarity What “joint attention” looks like in real life (and why it matters) Why pretend play is about creativity, not just copying What finger posturing means—and why it's often a self-soothing behavior When to worry about your child not responding to their name How delayed babbling fits into speech and language development How to ask your child's clinician the right follow-up questions when you're worried Want more?
