In this uplifting Morning Prayer titled "Faith Surpassing Our Present Circumstances," we dive into the powerful story of Rahab from Joshua 2:1-13. Surrounded by fear, danger, and uncertainty, Rahab chose to believe in the God of Israel. Her courageous faith opened the door to salvation—not just for herself, but for her entire family.This message is a reminder that no matter how overwhelming your current situation may seem, faith in God can lift you above your circumstances. When everything around you says it's over, God says it's just the beginning.

The client list of corporations that Steven Gaffney and his colleagues at the Steven Gaffney Company have consulted reads like a Who's Who of America's best corporations, including Allstate, Amazon, American Express, Best Buy, Booz Allen, and BP. And those are just some of the “A”s and “B”s on the roster. Steven's expertise lies in building consistently high-achieving teams and organizations that set goals, overcome obstacles, and achieve their desired results. The founder and CEO of the eponymous consultancy, he asserts that honest communication and the right mindset will overcome most business maladies. His latest book, Unconditional Power: Thriving in Any Situation, No Matter How Frustrating, Complex, or Unpredictable, offers actionable methods to empower executives and entrepreneurs to maintain a resilient state even in the face of adversity. It is achievement, not performance, that counts in the long term, Steven counsels. While performance covers behavior and effort, achievement is about outcomes. There's much to learn in this week's not-to-miss conversation with Steven, including what any business can do over the next 30 days to progress on the path to greater achievement.

After four weeks of trial, the government has yet to meet its burden of proof against Sean “Diddy” Combs because its case relies heavily on sensational testimony and circumstantial connections rather than hard, corroborated evidence of criminal conspiracy. Much of the government's narrative hinges on witness accounts that are inconsistent, uncorroborated, or tainted by personal motives, civil lawsuits, and financial incentives. For instance, critical allegations regarding obstruction and enterprise-related acts often rest on speculative interpretations of Combs' personal communications and business dealings—without the requisite proof that he knowingly participated in or directed a criminal enterprise as defined under RICO. The prosecution's reliance on the Cassie Ventura hotel incident as a linchpin falters when viewed in this broader context: the government has failed to conclusively tie that isolated event to an ongoing, coordinated racketeering scheme.Moreover, key elements of the charges—such as conspiracy and intent to obstruct justice—require evidence of corrupt action beyond a reasonable doubt. The government's presentation of jailhouse notes, family outreach, and alleged suppression efforts has been successfully reframed by the defense as lawful and constitutionally protected responses to a highly publicized legal battle. No clear, unbroken chain of evidence demonstrates that Combs conspired with others to systematically engage in sex trafficking or obstruction as part of an enterprise. Without direct proof of such coordination or corrupt intent, the prosecution's case amounts to character assassination rather than substantiated criminal conduct. Four weeks in, the government's evidence fails to satisfy the stringent legal standard required for conviction.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Behind the scenes of my life and your life is a vast backdrop that is God. Here are my scenes being played out in this area, and your scenes playing out over here. Then another scene from someone else is going on in that arena and another is taking place over there. Sometimes they overlap for a time, but as each one plays out there is the reality of pessimism and hopelessness, but for the panorama of God that is going on behind and within our scenes. In God we see and experience an unobstructed view in all directions. God is everywhere! Moses understood the panorama of God in the process. You see, this psalm is not about Moses nor about life’s circumstances. This psalm is about God! So that is where Moses begins.
Study Passage: James 5:13-16Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. 16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.

You trained for it. You lived it. You gave everything to the job—until one injury took it all away. In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton explore the silent and often overlooked grief that comes with career-ending injuries and medical retirement (Amazon Affiliate). For first responders, the job isn't just a job—it's an identity. So when injury, illness, or medical retirement forces that chapter to close, what's left behind is often grief no one talks about. This episode dives into the emotional, psychological, and spiritual toll of losing the career you loved—not by choice, but by circumstance. If you've felt lost, angry, numb, or invisible after leaving the job due to injury… you're not alone.

“I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and a chasing after wind.” – Ecclesiastes 1:14Life is full of pursuits and ambitions, each one pressing for our attention. Like a collage, the individual pieces may not make sense until we step back and see the bigger picture. Today, we're talking about the gift of perspective—and how viewing our lives through an eternal lens can change everything.Zooming Out with EcclesiastesIf there's one book in the Bible that invites us to zoom out and take an honest look at life, it's Ecclesiastes. It's raw, reflective, and unafraid to ask big questions: What's really worth pursuing? What has lasting value? What are we building—and why?Our new study, Wisdom Over Wealth, explores the book of Ecclesiastes with these questions in mind. It helps us see how financial wisdom fits into the broader story of a life lived for God. I'll tell you how to get your copy in a moment.In our everyday financial lives, it's easy to be consumed by the immediate—this week's bills, that investment opportunity, or the looming tax deadline. Every issue seems urgent. But what if, instead of focusing on just one puzzle piece, we looked at how it fits into the whole? What if we could pull back and see our finances as part of a much bigger story?That's the gift of perspective. It lifts us out of the weeds and helps us see clearly. When we understand how our financial choices connect to our spiritual priorities, we begin making wiser, more intentional decisions.The Danger of Disconnected WealthEcclesiastes invites us to take a mile-high view of not just our money but life itself. The Preacher, on whom this book is based, says he has seen all the works done “under the sun” and found them to be vanity, a chasing after the wind. Not because work or wealth are bad, but because when they become our ultimate goals, they leave us empty.That's a message we need in a culture that constantly tells us to buy more, earn more, and do more. But Ecclesiastes points out that it's all meaningless if disconnected from God's purposes.Wealth as a Tool, Not a GodThis doesn't mean that wealth is meaningless—far from it. When we view money through a biblical lens, we understand that it's not something to be worshiped or hoarded. It's a tool to be used for God's Kingdom purposes. When stewarded wisely, wealth can be used for incredible good: to bless others, to support ministry, and to bring glory to God.That's where Ecclesiastes speaks into stewardship. It reminds us that we don't truly own anything. Everything we have is entrusted to us by God. We're stewards, not owners—and that changes everything.It changes how we think about earning, saving, giving, and even retiring. It redirects our focus from accumulation to impact. Instead of asking, “How much can I gain?” we begin to ask, “How can I use what I have to reflect God's character?”That's the heart of biblical stewardship—living with open hands, trusting God as our provider, and using what we've been given for His glory.The Value of ContentmentEcclesiastes also teaches us something else that's crucial for our financial lives: contentment. The writer encourages us to enjoy our work, to appreciate what we have, and to find joy in the simple gifts of life. It's a call to be present, to stop comparing, and to stop chasing.Whether we're in a season of plenty or a season of little, contentment helps us stay grounded. It reminds us that peace isn't found in having more—it's found in walking with God, where we find lasting peace no matter our financial situation.So, how do we begin to cultivate this perspective? How do we step back and see our finances in light of God's larger story?Start by asking some honest questions: “What truly matters to me?” “What do I want my financial legacy to be?” “How can I reflect God's values in how I manage His money?”When you pause to reflect, you begin to see money not as the end goal, but as a resource to be used wisely and generously. Perspective leads to peace because it ultimately leads us back to God. It frees us from the endless striving and invites us into a deeper trust in His provision.Introducing Wisdom Over WealthThat's why we're so excited to make our new study, Wisdom Over Wealth, available to you. Through the book of Ecclesiastes, this study can help you gain the clarity and confidence you need to steward your finances with purpose.This month, when you give a gift of $35 or more, we'll send you Wisdom Over Wealth as our thank you.

An ontological leader can bring the being of a leader to whatever they are doing. One of the things that an ontological leader does is to perpetually be at choice for what is happening. What we mean by we are choice is that we are choosing what is going on, which allows us to be empowered by what we are up to. In this episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney dives into the profound concept of choice and its role in authentic leadership. He distinguishes between traditional, circumstantial thinking and a deeper ontological approach, where leadership is about who you are being, not just what you are doing. Enjoy the show!

Welcome to this explosive edition of Light ‘Em Up!In these critical and delicate times that we find ourselves in — democracy is in clear and present danger.As nothing feels certain or safe and everything appears to be in “transition” we interrogate and examine the Trump Administration and its efforts to suspend the “great writ” of Habeas corpus.Habeas corpus is a legal doctrine whose original purpose was to contest detention by the king. The origins of the writ, or “written order” (its Latin name means, loosely, “produce the body”), can be traced to 13th century England.On June 15, 1215, at Runnymede, the barons who had banded together to impose legal restrictions on King John's power forced him to affix his seal to the Magna Carta.One of its curbs on the sovereign's power reads, in part, “No free man shall be seized or imprisoned…except by the lawful judgment of his equals or by the law of the land.”The writ of habeas corpus appears in the U.S. Constitution. Article 1, section 9, clause 2 includes this single sentence: “The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.”Habeas corpus requires a jailer to produce a prisoner in a court of law so the basis for detention can be reviewed. The Constitution presupposes this right, but its use has been sharply restricted during past wars.Fast forward to the present, as Donald Trump continues on his “revenge tour” — his administration has shown itself to be big on conducting legal proceedings without due process for the defendants it pursues, just as George W. Bush did with “enemy combatants” at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, post 9-11.The Trump White House continues to break things like “Wreck it Ralph”— and has floated the idea of suspending Habeas corpus in the context of an “alien invasion” as it pertains to immigration, sparking widespread and grave concerns about the erosion of fundamental rights and the separation of powers.With mass deportations taking place without due process and the suspension of Habeas corpus, the rule of law and democracy itself is under a serious threat.While the Constitution allows for the suspension of Habeas corpus in cases of rebellion or invasion where the public safety is at stake, it is a power that must be exercised sparingly and only in extraordinary circumstances. Circumstances that we clearly are NOT in.With this probing, penetrating and pointed look … we ask out loud if we are on a collision course with the tyranny that brought about a coup d' état in Chile in 1973, where the military ousted then President Allende, General Agusto Pinochet seized power, democracy collapsed and repression, murder and great suffering followed (all backed and funded by the US CIA & State Department in the Nixon administration).As we challenge you to think critically, we probe further, examining the historical suspension of Habeas corpus, we think you'll be surprised to hear that one of the Presidents considered to be the “GOAT” (greatest of all time) suspended the writ of Habeas corpus, and we'll deliver the facts not the fiction surrounding this.We'll itemize some of the “pitfalls” and potential terrible consequences of decisions such as this, as we've learned through a FOIA request that the FBI has ordered its agents to scale back white-collar crime investigations to pursue more immigration crime instead.The rule of law and democracy are endangered!Previous Supreme Courts have held in reverence and referred to Habeas corpus as, “the fundamental instrument for safeguarding individual freedom against arbitrary and lawless state action.”The current Supreme Court has been at best tepid in its support and defense of the U.S. ConWe want to hear from you!
Are we loved? It is a question we often ask in times of depression, sadness and hardship. We want to know if someone cares about us or worse, is there any reason someone should care about us. In this video, we begin to answer that question (spoiler alert - the answer is an unequivocal "yes!") by mentioning the three big reasons people do not believe they are loved - their circumstances, evil done to them and evil they did, then by focusing on this question: "Does my difficult life mean I am not loved?"

In 1911 Vienna, a man on his way home spots the figure of a woman at the edge of the river. She is still, beautiful and nude, framed by tendrils of yellow hair. The man is Austrian painter Gustav Klimt. So instead of calling for help, the artist takes out his sketchbook. In his new historical novel Anima Rising, Christopher Moore uses this strange encounter as the jumping off point for his story, which goes on to involve characters like Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung. In today's episode, Moore joins NPR's Scott Simon for a conversation about the mystery at the center of the story and the real-life Klimt's relationship to women.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Matthew 14:22-23 — “I'm a Christian, why am I depressed?” Too often, Christians believe that becoming a Christian eliminates all temptation toward despair and depression. While regeneration transforms the inner person, it doesn't necessarily change personality or temperament. The Christian should not continue in depression, yet the Christian often does battle depression. Sanctification is not automatic––one must strive toward living a life of faith. In this sermon on Matthew 14:22–23 titled “Looking at the Waves,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones examines the personality of Peter, a disciple of Jesus, and his unstable faith which leads to despair. Peter's initial faith in Jesus led him onto the stormy waters. Yet something changed. Circumstances didn't change; the waves were not new. What changed was Peter's faith. Instead of focusing on Jesus, Peter focused on his circumstances. Dr. Lloyd-Jones explains that this focus on circumstances leads to doubt, which leads to despair. While the circumstances of one's life are enough to drive them to depression, the Christian has a savior in the midst of the storm. The Christian must not rely on past experiences of faith––they must practice faith now, as the waves crash around them.
