Donna Adelson's Family Turns: Inside the Explosive Testimony from Her Own Children In this gripping breakdown, we dive into the raw courtroom moments that could define the fate of Donna Adelson—testimony not from prosecutors or hired experts, but from her own children. Defense Attorney and Former Prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski to dissect the emotionally charged statements from Robert and Wendy Adelson, revealing a family dynamic that's anything but united. Robert came across as blunt, clinical, and disturbingly honest about his mother's controlling nature, while Wendy played the “I don't remember” card with an Olympic level of consistency. What does it mean when your own children don't defend you—or worse, distance themselves entirely? Eric breaks down how jurors digest this kind of testimony, and whether these cracks in the family's public image translate into hard evidence in court. Is it character assassination… or a clear window into Donna's true influence? This episode pulls apart the psychology, strategy, and possible consequences of this damaging testimony—and what it could mean as the trial heads into even darker territory.

Hosanna Wong has been traveling the country (literally, you need to listen to her story) and speaking to women about what it means to know and and believe what God says about us. Our pathway to freedom is allowing God's good words in Scripture to meet us in our daily experiences. It's through the everyday soaking that we can know God better and therefore know ourselves better. We know that childhood messages can set a trajectory for identity and so we talk about how to both counter negative messages we've absorbed along the way, and offer words of hope to future generations. Hosanna is now married and a (little) more settled in San Diego, but she still travels frequently to present to groups about God's love for them.. She often hears women say they wished they'd known and absorbed these messages earlier in life, and so she has created a children's book titled, What God Says About You. Listening to Hosanna's story, her thoughts on friendship, faith, and truth, will remind you of how dramatically God can intervene in each of our hearts. We can live in freedom. Our first step is listening to what God says about us.

Paul Reynolds has the latest on a garda investigation into what happened to a young boy living in Dublin who has disappeared without being reported missing. Tanya Ward. CEO of the Children's Rights Alliance, reacts to the investigation into a child missing in Dublin.

According to former college president Beverly Daniel Tatum, Trump's war on university admissions is deeply hypocritical. On the one hand, she argues, his attack on affirmative action admissions policy is made in the populist language of “anti-woke” egalitarianism; but on the other, wealthy families are already gaming college admissions through clever manipulation of the system. A Harvard study revealed that athletes, legacies, donors' children, and faculty offspring—categories overwhelmingly benefiting affluent white families—receive admission advantages far exceeding any diversity program. Yet while demanding universities abandon "racial proxies," Trump's administration simultaneously insists on counting student demographics, exposing the contradiction in claims of colorblind meritocracy.Tatum's new book, Peril and Promise: College Leadership in Turbulent Times, draws from her extensive experience as President of both Mount Holyoke College and Spelman College. Tatum discussed her controversial decision to eliminate NCAA sports at Spelman, redirecting resources toward wellness programs for all students rather than competitive athletics for a few. She also addressed the broader challenges facing higher education, from AI's potential to transform teaching and reduce costs to the ongoing mental health crisis on campuses, presenting herself as both a trustworthy insider and experienced observer of college education in our unusually turbulent times. Even opponents of affirmative action might learn something from the wise Dr Tatum.* The Real Admissions Advantage Goes to Wealth, Not Race - A Harvard study shows that "ALDCs" (Athletes, Legacies, Donors' children, faculty Children) receive far greater admissions boosts than any affirmative action program ever provided, with these categories disproportionately benefiting affluent white families.* Trump's "Colorblind" Approach Is Contradictory - While demanding universities stop using "racial proxies" and claiming to want merit-based admissions, the administration simultaneously insists on counting and tracking student demographics by race.* 2025 Is Uniquely Turbulent for Higher Education - Tatum, who lived through the Vietnam era and other crisis periods, believes the current government intervention in university operations represents the most intense challenge to academic freedom she's experienced in decades.* College Sports Often Drain Resources from Student Wellness - Tatum eliminated NCAA sports at Spelman College, redirecting funds toward fitness and wellness programs that benefit all students rather than the small percentage who compete, especially given data showing young Black women's sedentary lifestyles.* AI Will Transform College Costs and Teaching - While startup costs for AI implementation are significant, early experiments show promise for reducing expenses and improving learning outcomes, such as AI tutors available 24/7 that outperformed traditional teaching methods in physics classes.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 2nd of September, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the second book in the Bible, Exodus 2:6: “And when she opened it, she saw the child, and behold, the baby wept. So she had compassion on him,…” This was a heathen woman who had compassion on a little baby that was crying, and of course, we know what happened after that. She took that little baby to be her own, and his name was Moses. She gave him that name, and he grew up to be one of God's chosen men. He took the Israelites out of bondage, out of Egypt and through the desert to the land of milk and honey.Then we go to the Book of Matthew 18:6: “But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea.” A millstone weighs approximately 5 tons. Jesus is making a very clear point this morning to you and to me. Jesus loves little children. Remember when He was tired and the mothers were bringing their children, their babies to Jesus so He could bless them? And the disciples were trying to help the Lord and keep the children back, and what did He say?“Let the little children come unto Me for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven.” Matthew 19:14The Lord is making it very plain today, sir and madam, look after that child. That child actually does not belong to you. That child belongs to God. He is just allowing you to look after that baby for Him. We had better do it. Don't neglect your children. Spend time with them, love them and discipline your children. There is nothing more embarrassing than to see a child - I saw it once in the game reserve - a child throwing its plate of ice cream all over the table, and the waitress had to try and clean it up, and the mother and father did nothing about it. What an embarrassment! I have never forgotten that as long as I live. Teach them good manners, love them, spend time with them, and most of all, be a good example to them. Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,Goodbye.

PART 2   3. Some important quotes stand out!  4.  His comments about the ROD are really good in chapter 11 Children are not born morally and ethically neutral If they are they don't need correction, just direction If they are not, then they need correction Our child's problem is that he or she is a sinner! p. 102. Folly is the problem we have to address according to proverbs Folly is not childishness Folly describes the person who does not fear God A fools life is run by his desires and fears The fool lives out of the immediacy of his lusts, cravings, expectations, hopes, and fears The issue is authority Will a child live under the authority of God and his parents? Will he/she live under their own authority? All children choose to live under their own authority: I don't want my diaper changed I don't want to sit quietly at the table during this meal You are going to make me and if you do I will scream and throw a huge fit Leave this to take root and grow, and it produces “a rebellious teenager who will not allow anyone to rule him.” “God has ordained the rod of discipline for this condition.” p. 103 “Confrontation, with the immediate and undeniably tactile sensation of a spanking, renders an implacable child sweet.” (p. 103) The quote on p 103 is massively important The function of the rod It imparts wisdom Pr 29:15, which is tied to the fear of god “It creates an atmosphere in which instruction can be given. The spanking renders the child compliant and ready to receive life-giving words.”  (p 104) Tripp deals with the question - don't all children eventually learn to obey? He say NO!! Proverbs 29:15, 17 The rod defined - p. 104 “The rod is a parent, in faith toward God and faithfullness toward his or her children, undertaking the responsibility of careful, timely, measured, and controlled use of physical punishment to underscore the importance of obeying God, thus rescuing the child from continuing in his foolishness unto death.”  It is a parental exercise It is an act of faith in God and His Word It is an act of faithfulness - an expression of love and comitment It is an act of responsibility - not a parent determining to punish, but a parent determining to obey It is an act of physical punishment Not venting or parental anger Not frustration Not based on a feeling of my child is bothering me It is always measured and controlled It is a rescue mission Rescues the child from continuing in foolishness To ignore your child's rebellion against God's authority is to ultimately brings God's greater chastisement into their lives. The Rod clarified Not unbridled temper Not the right to hit my child Not venting or frustration not retribution Not payment but restoration Not vindictive The Rod objected I love my child too much too spank You love yourself too much to spank them I am afraid I will hurt them “Biblically-balanced discipline never physically endangers a child” I am afraid it will make him rebellious and angry Proverbs 29:17 teaches the exact opposite I am afraid it will teach them to hit Only if you spank in anger It doesn't work It doesn't when you spank in anger or out-of-control It doesn't when you are inconsistent It doesn't when you fail to be persistent It doesn't when you aren't effective I could be arrested for child abuse Only spank in the privacy of your home and do it right

On this podcast we play interactive games while learning about the gospel and atonement of Jesus Christ.If your children would like to be guests on this podcast or to receive a baptism shout out, please email us at their info at comefollowmekidspodcast@gmail.com From the come follow me manual:Anciently, the Lord commanded Moses to build a tabernacle “according to the pattern shewed to [him] in the mount” (⁠Hebrews 8:5⁠; see also Exodus 25:8–9⁠). The tabernacle was to be the center of Israel's wilderness camp (see Numbers 2:1–2⁠).In 1833, the Lord commanded Joseph Smith to build temples “not after the manner of the world” but rather “after the manner which I shall show” (⁠Doctrine and Covenants 95:13–14⁠; see also 97:10⁠). Like the tabernacle in the wilderness, the temple was meant to be a central feature in Kirtland (see Doctrine and Covenants 94:1⁠).Today, temples are found around the world. Even if they aren't at the center of our cities, they point us to Christ, who should be the center of our lives. Though each temple differs in appearance, within them we learn the same divine pattern—a heavenly plan to bring us back into the presence of God. Sacred ordinances and covenants connect us to Christ and strengthen our families “not after the manner of the world” but after the pattern God shows us.

Dr. Beth Lorance joins Dr. Sandie Morgan as they discover how a high school coach gave one of his players expensive gifts, things her mother had refused to buy, with the mom posting online asking what to do, not realizing she was witnessing grooming behavior that creates the same vulnerabilities traffickers exploit in trusted spaces throughout our communities. Dr. Beth Lorance Dr. Beth Lorance is an adjunct professor at Vanguard University, where she teaches Family Violence and has also taught Introduction to Psychology and Psychology of the Family. She earned her PsyD in Clinical Psychology and previously served as the director of Vanguard's counseling center. In addition to her academic background, Beth is a licensed minister with the Assemblies of God, which allows her to bring both psychological expertise and theological insight into conversations about abuse, trauma, and healing. Her passion is deeply personal, rooted in her own family history of child sexual abuse, and she is committed to equipping others to use their voices to prevent abuse, protect the vulnerable, and walk alongside survivors. Beth also works to bring awareness into the church, encouraging faith communities to reflect Jesus' response to victims and to take seriously the call to protect those who are most vulnerable. Key Points Family violence creates deep vulnerabilities by teaching children harmful lessons that love is transactional, they're not enough, and there's something wrong with them that they can't overcome - wounds that become embedded in their brain chemistry when trauma happens at a young age. Traffickers don't create vulnerabilities but rather exploit existing wounds from family abuse, stepping into unmet needs and exploiting lessons already learned about intimacy being tied to exploitation. Statistics reveal that 90% of abusers are known to their victims with only 10% being strangers, and 31% of traffickers are actually family members of the victim, making "stranger danger" education insufficient. Grooming is a process of control and manipulation that builds trust, chips away boundaries, and creates dependency so victims willingly comply when lines are crossed into inappropriate behavior because they've been normalized to the perpetrator's actions. Training is essential for leaders, staff, pastors, volunteers, and teachers to recognize grooming signs like expensive gift-giving, requests for secrecy, and isolating language such as "your parents don't understand you, but I do." Clear boundaries and policies are crucial, including no one-on-one supervision between adults and children, with swift consequences when policies aren't followed to prevent grooming opportunities. Children need to be empowered to say no even to trusted adults, with parents and leaders respecting their boundaries and teaching them about "tricky people" rather than just strangers. Trauma-informed communities must stop asking "what's wrong with you?" and instead listen without judgment, sitting with broken people without requiring them to change or behave in prescribed ways to receive care. Parents should be vigilant about adults in their children's lives, knowing what interactions look like and requiring that any adult who wants to be friends with their child must be friends with the parent first. Breaking the cycle requires communities that believe victims, provide someone to stand up for those who can't yet stand up for themselves, and create new family structures when biological families fail to protect.

Are you clearing every obstacle out of your child's way? In this episode, Kyle and Sara Wester unpack snow plow parenting—why it happens, how it holds kids back, and what to do instead. Snow plow parenting is when parents try to remove every challenge or discomfort from their child's path. While it often comes from love and fear, this approach can unintentionally rob kids of the resilience, confidence, and problem-solving skills they need to thrive. Kyle and Sara share why parents fall into this trap, the long-term costs to children, and how to shift toward a healthier approach. You'll learn practical strategies for recognizing when you're “snow plowing,” scaffolding instead of rescuing, and coaching kids through life's challenges while still offering the support they need. Key Takeaways: Snow plow parenting means clearing obstacles to prevent failure or discomfort.While motivated by love, it can lead to anxiety and low confidence in kids.Children miss opportunities to build resilience and emotional intelligence when parents over-intervene.Recognizing when you're snow plowing is the first step to change.Coaching and scaffolding help children learn to solve problems at their own pace.Allowing small struggles is essential for long-term growth.Validating feelings—without rushing to fix—is a powerful parenting tool.Trusting children to handle challenges builds their confidence and independence. View the full podcast transcript at: https://www.artofraisinghumans.com/stop-snow-plow-parenting-build-resilient-confident-kids. Visit our website and social media channels for more valuable content for your parenting journey. Resource Website: https://www.artofraisinghumans.comVideo Courses: https://art-of-raising-humans.newzenler.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/artofraisinghumansInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/artofraisinghumansPodcast Website: https://www.theartofraisinghumans.comBook List:https://www.artofraisinghumans.com/booklist The Art of Raising Humans podcast should not be considered or used as counseling but for educational purposes only.

Children learn from their parents. Through loving guidance they learn what is right and best. As God's children, we watch and listen. We learn how to be kind, to forgive as we have already been forgiven in Christ. This meditation reminds us that our experience of forgiveness is tied to our choice to forgive those who offend us. It releases the power of love between us, and between us and God. Can we trust our Father's advice that forgiving is to give freedom? Daylight Meditations is a daily podcast from CFO North America.

We tend to take our access to the Holy Spirit for granted, but as we'll be reminded in today's message from Pastor Ken, the Holy Spirit has not always dwelt with God's Children in the same way He does now. Because of Jesus' death on the cross, providing atonement for our souls, we can be made clean and become a welcome place for His Spirit to reside. Every believer has this amazing privilege – it's not just for a select few – and yet we often ignore His presence and guiding voice in our hearts.
