A Sermon for the Third Sunday in Advent

Living Words

A Sermon for the Third Sunday in Advent Isaiah 35:1-10, 1 Corinthians 4:1-5, St. Matthew 11:2-10 by William Klock Many years ago, as we were driving home from church on a Sunday morning, a very young Alexandra asked, “Dad, can Episcopalians cry?” I thought, “What? Of course we can. What makes you ask that?” And she said something to the effect of, “The song said the Baptists cried” “Ah! ‘On Jordan's bank the Baptist's cry…' and I found myself trying to figure out how to explain plurals and possessives and punctuation to a pre-schooler who couldn't read yet, and in the end I said something like—“No, the song is about John the Baptist, not Baptists, and he wasn't crying because he was sad, he was crying—like yelling out—to the crowds about how, in Jesus, God had come to save his people like he'd promised, so they'd better get ready by getting rid of their sins.” That hymn was written by Charles Coffin in 1736 for the Paris Breviary and was a hymn to be sung at Lauds—more or less what we call Morning Prayer—during Advent. And it wonderfully blends the account of John the Baptist that we have in the Gospels with Isaiah's prophecies of the coming Messiah, his call to make straight the way of the Lord, and his promises of forgiveness and reconciliation, of healing and new creation. Maybe it's because we reference the hymn by its first line, but somehow that first line—little Alexandra wasn't the only one—lots of people hear that first line and imagine poor John sobbing on the banks of the Jordan river, when what we're singing about is John, proclaiming with an urgent joy the coming of the Messiah and the fulfilment of Israel's hopes and longings. For thou art our salvation Lord, Our refuge and our great reward: Without thy grace we waste away Like flowers that wither and decay. To heal the sick stretch out thine hand, And bid the fallen sinner stand; Shine forth, and let thy light restore Earth's own true loveliness once more. It's certainly an appropriate image for this season of Advent as we prepare ourselves to celebrate the birth of Jesus and are reminded about the vocation he's given us to prepare ourselves and his creation for the day when he returns. But I still wrestle with this passage and with today's Epistle from 1 Corinthians 11, every time the Third Sunday in Advent rolls around. Last week's lessons are some of my favourites. They remind us how important it is that we know and root ourselves in the story of God and his people. But I always find today's lessons hard. First we hear Paul rebuking the Corinthian Christians. They'd rejected his authority and he writes them to say, “Hey, that's not the way I should be treated. You need to regard me a servant of the Messiah and steward of God's mysteries. Who are you to judge me?” If we didn't know better we might think Paul's head was a little swollen. And then in the Gospel we've got Jesus defending John the Baptist and his calling and ministry. And I know that the reason these lessons were appointed for the Third Sunday in Advent is because this is an ember week, one of those weeks that most people have forgotten about, that come around four times a year—the times when ordinations traditionally took place. And so the lessons were chosen to remind us of the importance of those who serve as ministers in the church. We prayed in the Collect, “Grant that the ministers and stewards of thy mysteries may so prepare and make ready your way by turning the hearts of the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, that at your second coming to judge the world we may be found an acceptable people in your sight.” That's a good thing to pray. I hope that you pray for me and that you pray for our bishops and for those who lead and teach in our church—and all the churches. But I get kind of uncomfortable standing at the pulpit and suggesting that I—or any other clergyman, by he a presbyter or a bishop—can talk that way about my ministry the way Paul could speak about his apostolic ministry and authority. That was a unique authority given to Paul and the other apostles and to no one since. Our duty—both mine and yours—is simply to faithfully proclaim the faith given to us by those uniquely authoritative apostles. Ditto for Jesus' defense of John the Baptist. I hope with all my heart that if a crowd of people were doubting my faithfulness, that Jesus was come to my defense. But I can't presume to talk as if Jesus' words in today's Gospel mean that you all should see and respect me as a modern-day John the Baptist. Every year when this set of lessons comes around, I can' help but think of the words of our Declaration of Principles, where it says that “this church condemns and rejects the following erroneous and strange doctrines as contrary to God's word...” And the second of those erroneous and strange doctrines is “That Christian ministers are ‘priests' in another sense than that in which all believers are a ‘royal priesthood'.” Brother and Sisters, together we are the body of Jesus the Messiah. Some of us are ears or eyes, some hands or feet, some hearts or brains. I may have pastoral training and authority granted by the church to teach and to administer the sacraments, but that doesn't make me more important. The church, to be the church, needs all of us. And the really important thing that we really need—all of us—to do is not to treat our pastors or our bishops as if they carry Paul's apostolic authority. What we need to do is to see ourselves—all of us—in the same place as the Corinthians and submit ourselves to that apostolic teaching handed down by Paul and Peter and John and the rest of the apostles. Because our witness depends on it. God's kingdom depends on it. We are the stewards of the good news and we're stewards of God's Spirit. We are the stewards of his kingdom and his new creation. And as Paul writes, “it's required of stewards that they be found trustworthy”. When Paul writes “steward” he's describing the manager of a household or an estate. Think of Joseph, Potiphar's steward, put in charge of everything he owned, responsible for how it was all managed, responsible for the profits and losses, responsible for making sure all of Potiphar's assets were put to good and efficient use and not wasted, squandered, or damaged. That's what Paul saw himself as when it came to the mysteries of God. And not some highfalutin executive, but as a humble slave, graciously chosen by God to steward the gospel. And because you and I have been entrusted with that same gospel—handed down by Paul and Peter and John and the other apostles—we've become stewards too. Not with the apostolic authority that Paul had and the ability to announce “Thus saith the Lord.” But still a people called to work in the Lord's household or in his vineyard, entrusted with his mysteries—with the gospel, with his grace, with his Spirit—and called, each of us in our own way, to steward the Lord's good things faithfully. When we look at First and Second Corinthians, the folks in that church weren't doing a very good job. Picture them. A small church—probably a few dozen people at most. Most of the people in it were converts from paganism. They used to worship false gods who represented things like sex, knowledge, money, war, power, government. The Corinthians all had their favourite sins: lying, cheating, anger, pornography, drunkenness, drugs, adultery. You name it, they'd done it—often as part of their worship. But then this funny Jewish man showed up preaching a bizarre message about the God of Israel and his son, the Messiah—the anointed king—who had been crucified and then raised from death. And this man, Paul, he'd been abused, beaten, stoned, left for dead so many times for the sake of this message, this “good news” he was so earnest about. He was a little frightening to look at, because he literally bore the marks of this gospel, the marks of Jesus on his own body. But this good news was unlike any news they'd ever heard before. This God, this Jesus, was unlike any god they'd ever worshiped. He brought love, mercy, grace, and hope into a world of darkness, greed, selfishness, and brutality. In Paul they saw and in hearing the good news he announced, they met God's new world and they were won over. They were baptised into this God who is Father, Son, and Spirit and the new creation begun by Jesus was born in them. Paul stayed and he taught them and they grew in Jesus and the Spirit. And they lived as a little pocket of God's new age right there in the midst of brutal, wicked, dark, pagan Corinth. And then Paul moved on. And they started to struggle. The temptations of their old pagan ways came back—as so often happens. The new life of Jesus and the Spirit—so thrilling at first—became hum-drum and they started seeking after new experiences and new excitements. That resulted in factions in the church: this group became a fan of that preacher and that group became fans of this preacher. In the name of Christian liberty they became tolerant of sin—even some that were unspeakable to the pagans. And that led to further divisions. They began to use the gifts the Spirit had given them, not to build up the church, but to build up themselves. Their worship became chaotic and dishonouring to God. And when Paul heard what was happening and wrote to them. Think of Advent. He wrote to them: “Hey, you're living like you're still part of the old evil age, subject to the old false gods and the principalities and powers that Jesus defeated at the cross. You're supposed to be living as heralds of God's new creation! You're supposed to be a church full of John the Baptists, crying out, announcing that the Lord is night!” And they wrote back a nasty letter telling him they were done with him—they didn't want to hear his “correction” anymore. They had grown beyond his teaching and they were doing well on their own, thank you very much! And I think we tend to read about the Corinthians think, “Wow, what horrible Christians!” And yet, I don't know that the modern church is all that different. It's full of quarrelling and divisions. We're jealous of other pastor's or other church's successes. We use the gifts God has given to benefit ourselves rather than the body. We lack holiness. We're worldly. We lie, we cheat, we steal, and we exploit in our business. Our families are often a mess. Unrepentant divorce is rampant. Sexual immorality, pornography, drugs and drunkenness, abortion are nearly as prevalent in the church as they are in the world. Bishops and presbyters abuse and lie and plagiarise and get drunk and engage in sexual immorality. We say we've given our allegiance to Jesus, but we sell ourselves out to the materialistic and consumeristic and individualistic and political spirits of the age. We take our cues from advertising and become dissatisfied with what God has given us and where he's placed us. We take our cues from politicians instead of the Bible. We see evil in the world, we see injustice in the world and instead of speaking out or doing something about it, we look the other way and refuse to act. Our worship is too often chaotic and man-centred rather than God- and gospel-centred. We preach self-help instead of sin and grace, the cross and new creation. Brothers and Sisters, the church is supposed to be the advance guard of God's new creation. It's supposed to be his temple, the place where God and man, where heaven and earth meet. We've been entrusted with the mysteries of God. But we're too much like the old creation. Our allegiance is half-hearted. We are unfaithful stewards, squandering the gifts of God. The principalities and powers of the old age often rule and govern the church more than Jesus and the Spirit do. I don't think it's any wonder that—to use the analogy of John's vision in Revelation—I don't think it's any great wonder that Jesus seems to be taking away our lampstand here in the post-Christian West. And I know there's little if anything you and I can do about the church on a large scale, but we've been entrusted with our little corner of the church and we can do something about that. Advent reminds us that as Israel was to listen to men like John the Baptist and prepare for Jesus first coming, the church now needs to listen to the scriptures—to the prophets and apostles—and prepare for Jesus' return. As Paul warned the Corinthians that they needed to heed his apostolic authority, he might as well be warning us, too. Hear the apostles and hear the prophets—and don't just hear; do. Hear the words of Isaiah we read today: “The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad; the desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus; it shall blossom abundantly and rejoice with joy and singing. The glory of the Lebanon shall be given to it, the majesty of Carmel and Sharon. They shall see the glory of the Lord, the majesty of our God.” Maybe that doesn't mean much to us today, but for people who lived in the desert, those were words of hope. New creation was coming. God has promised to come and set the world to rights. To bring his people back to the garden to live in his presence. And so Isaiah tells them, “Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees. Say to those who have an anxious heart, “Be strong; fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God. He will come and save you.” Don't be discouraged. Don't lose hope. Don't forget his promises. Don't forget to whom you belong. Don't give up on your holy vocation. Don't forget that you are stewards of the good things of God for the sake of the world. What he has promised he will do. He will not let you thirst in the desert forever. “The eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf unstopped; then shall the lame man leap like a deer, and the tongue of the mute sing for joy. For waters break forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert; the burning sand shall become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water; in the haunt of jackals, where they lie down, the grass shall become reeds and rushes. And a highway shall be there, and it shall be called the way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it. It shall belong to those who walk on the way; even if they are fools, they shall not go astray. No lion shall be there, nor shall any ravenous beast come up on it; they shall not be found there, but the redeemed shall walk there. And the ransomed of the Lord shall return and come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain gladness and joy and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.” John the Baptist saw that in Jesus God was beginning to fulfil this promise. In fact, what John saw in Jesus—preaching good news, healing the sick, casting out demons—looked so much like the fulfilment of God's promises made through Isaiah and the other prophets, that he had confidence to announce to Israel that the kingdom was at hand. It gave him the confidence to preach, not just the joyful part of Isaiah's message, but to also declare the part about God's judgement coming and to call the people to repentance in preparation. He was confident enough that he even called out King Herod's personal sins. And that landed him in Herod's dungeon. But when Jesus didn't break him out, he started to wonder. I don't know that he really doubted the message, but it seems like he began to wonder and so he sent his disciples to Jesus to ask, “Are you the one or should we look for someone else?” And Jesus reminded them of all the Messiah things he'd been doing. The blind received their sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, even the dead are raised, and the poor are hearing good news for the first time. And in case the crowds were doubting, Jesus reminded them of the absolute certainty John had shown. “What did you go out to the wilderness to see?” he asked them. Not a reed flapping in the wind. Not some fop dressed in fine clothes. You can find that in Herod's palace. No, you went out to see a prophet—to see a man who knows God's faithfulness and wasn't afraid to proclaim both the joy of salvation and the sternness of judgement. You went out because he was calling you to repentance in preparation for God's coming. Yes, you went out to hear the one of whom it was written: “Behold, I send my messenger…who will prepare the way before you.” In other words, Jeus says to them, “You saw what God is doing through me and so you went out to meet John, to listen to his message, to be baptised in the Jordan, because you knew that you need to be prepared for God's coming. And, Brothers and Sisters, we need to hear the same thing. We've seen the goodness of God, we've seen his faithfulness in Jesus. We've know the joy of being forgiven our sins and restored to fellowship with God. We've received his Spirit and have known the beginning of new creation. We've experienced the fellowship of this redeemed community. We should be as certain as John was that in Jesus God's salvation has come, that in Jesus new creation has begun. And we should be as certain as John was of the need to make straight the way of the Lord, to shout to the world with joy and also with earnestness: Repent, because the kingdom of God is here. But I think we've lost that—or at least a good bit of it. The joy has faded and we've become complacent. And so Advent is a call to remember the faithfulness of God that we have known, to remember the joy and love and hope we once knew, and to renew our allegiance to King Jesus and to his kingdom…and then to repent in dust and ashes for our sins and failures and betrayals and to commit ourselves as the church, as his temple to truly be the place where heaven and earth meet, the place that confronts the kingdoms of men with the kingdom of God, that confronts the principalities and powers with the victory of the cross, to be the people who know the redemption of sins and who go out into the world to make straight the way of the Lord. Brothers and Sisters, let Advent remind you of the joy of your salvation; let Advent remind you of the kingdom vocation you've been given; let Advent be a time recommitment as you lay aside everything else and once again give your full attention and your full allegiance and your full self to the coming King. Let's pray: O Lord Jesus, Messiah, who at your first coming sent your messenger to prepare your way before you: grant that we being faithful ministers and stewards of your mysteries, might so prepare and make ready your way by turning the hearts of the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, that at your second coming to judge the world we may be found an acceptable people in your sight; who lives and reigns with the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

December 14, 2025Today's Reading: Matthew 11:2-11Daily Lectionary: Isaiah 30:15-26; Revelation 2:1-29"Are you the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?" (Matthew 11:3)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.John the Baptizer has been faithful since before he was born. John leapt in his mother Elizabeth's womb in greeting when Jesus visited inside Mary before He was born. He proclaimed a baptism of repentance while dressed in camel's hair and eating locusts. He stood against Herod marrying his brother's wife, which is why he was in prison. But such faithfulness doesn't make doubt impossible, especially when things don't work out the way you hoped they would. We, too, might be faithful in much of what God gives to us. We have confessed Christ when it cost us. We have shared the Gospel with those who needed it, even if they didn't want it. We have called upon Him in times of great need. But what happens when things don't turn out the way we planned? That prayer didn't receive the answer we wanted? That friend betrayed us? A loved one dies? In those moments, we want Christ to answer us: Are you the right one? Or is it someone else? Jesus answers John, John's disciples, and us in the same way, by actually doing the things that He promised. And every promise finds its yes in Jesus' death and resurrection. Because Jesus died for you. Those things that didn't go according to our plan? Remember that God's plan included a cross for Christ to die on. Prayer didn't get the answer we wanted? Jesus prayed for the cup to pass from Him, though not if it was against the Father's will. And the Father's will was for us to be saved from our sin. That friend who betrayed us? By Jesus' betrayal, the price for sin was paid forever on our behalf. A loved one dies? By the death of Jesus, death itself is destroyed. It may have seemed like things were not working throughout Jesus' passion and death. But as Easter morning dawned, sin was forgiven, paid in blood. Death was conquered, as Jesus rose as the firstborn from the dead. The devil had no more claim on anyone, as Christ kicked down the gates of Hell itself in victory. Yes, those moments of doubt come. But all God's promises are answered with “yes” at His cross. Look there, and see what our Lord thinks of you. You are worth God giving up His own life to save. And what can matter more than that?In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Lord Jesus Christ, we implore You to hear our prayers and to lighten the darkness of our hearts by Your gracious visitation; for You live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.

Enough Is Enough: Knowing When to Fire, Freeze, or Fix

Greedy Bitch

Hello, hello — and welcome back to Greedy Bitch, the podcast for groomers who are done apologizing for wanting more. I'm your host, River Lee, founder of The Savvy Groomer, and if you're new here — this show is where we talk about the real stuff behind running a grooming business. The money, the mindset, the boundaries — and all the messy middle that comes with it. And listen… we're hitting that time of year again. The holidays. When every human being on Earth seems to lose their mind just a little bit. Clients are calling last minute. Everyone suddenly “forgot” that Christmas comes the same day every year. People are cranky, tired, stressed — including you. But here's the truth, my friend: This isn't just about the holidays. This is the highlight reel of who people really are under pressure. So today, we're going to talk about recognizing when enough is enough. Today's episode is “Enough Is Enough: Knowing When to Fire, Freeze, or Fix” I'm going to help you decide how to tell when someone — a client, an employee, even a coworker — has crossed the line from stressful… to unacceptable. And even better — how to stop guessing, and start collecting data so that come January, you're making clear, confident decisions instead of emotional, exhausted ones. Alright — deep breath. Grab your notebook, grab your coffee, and let's get into it. Okay, let's start here — I know everyone's cranky right now. Clients, staff, even your delivery driver who's running three hours late. It's chaos. You're running on caffeine and adrenaline, praying the power doesn't go out mid-bath. But I want you to remember something that's going to change how you see this whole season: Stress doesn't create bad people — it reveals them. This time of year, people show their true colors. And if you pay attention, this month will tell you everything you need to know about who you want in your business next year. Some folks? When things get hard, they get generous. They bring cookies. They show up on time because they know you're slammed. They even tip a little extra because they see your effort. Those are your green flag people — your soulmate clients, your team players, your keepers. But then there's the other kind. The ones who, the moment life doesn't go perfectly their way, start acting like the world owes them special treatment. They nitpick. They guilt-trip. They send those “just checking in” messages that really mean “Why aren't you prioritizing me over everyone else?” And here's the kicker — they've probably been like that all year. You just haven't had the bandwidth to notice. Because when you're busy and stressed, the little things that used to be “no big deal” start to sting. That tone in their voice. That sarcastic comment. That coworker who “just has a bad attitude.” Let's be honest — some of those relationships were fine when everything was easy. But now? You're starting to see what's underneath. That's the gift of December. Everyone's mask slips a little. And instead of judging them — or yourself — I want you to use that as data. Now, data doesn't sound sexy, right? But data is power. Data is how you stop running your business based on emotion and start running it like the CEO you are. So this month, I want you to become a quiet observer. Think of yourself as a scientist in your own business. You're not jumping to conclusions; you're collecting information. Who apologizes when they mess up? Who gets defensive when you set a boundary? Who handles pressure with grace versus those who melt down or lash out? If a client shows up late once, okay. Life happens. But if they're late three times, complain about the price increase, and then act like they're doing you a favor by showing up at all — Girl, that's not a client, that's a walking red flag wrapped in tinsel. Same goes for your team. If your bather forgets to restock shampoo once, that's an oops. If it happens every week — and they roll their eyes when you bring it up — that's a pattern. And patterns don't lie. Here's another thing to watch for: how people treat you when you say no. It's easy for someone to be “nice” when you're saying yes. But tell them no — tell them you can't squeeze them in, or that there's a late fee, or that you're closed on Christmas Eve — and see what happens. Do they respect you? Or do they try to make you feel guilty? That reaction tells you everything. Because respectful clients don't make you defend your boundaries. They might be disappointed, but they get it. They'll say, “Oh, no worries! I'll book earlier next time.” And then there's the other kind… “You can't just make an exception for me?” “Wow, I thought you valued my business.” That's manipulation, not loyalty. And listen — I'm not saying cut everyone off the moment they frustrate you. This isn't about being reactive. It's about being aware. You can't manage what you don't measure. You can't fix what you won't admit is broken. So instead of venting to your friends or spiraling in your head, start writing it down. Seriously. Grab a sticky note, a notebook, or your phone — whatever works. When something happens, jot down what it was and how it made you feel. You're not keeping score; you're building clarity. Because by the time January rolls around, you're going to look at that list and see patterns that were invisible before. And that's when you'll realize — oh. This isn't “holiday stress.” This is who they really are when they think I'll tolerate it. You know how people say “the way someone talks to waitstaff tells you who they are”? Well, the way your clients act during December tells you who they'll be for the rest of the year. So let this month be your audition tape. Who gets cast for Season 2026 of your business, and who's getting written out of the script? Because if you want peace, profit, and better clients next year — this is where it starts. Not by burning bridges, but by seeing clearly. Collect the data now. Your future self will thank you. Alright, so now that you're collecting data — let's talk about how to actually use it. I want to introduce you to a little system I swear every groomer needs tattooed on their forearm: The Three-Strikes Rule. This is my go-to for when you're not sure if something is “worth firing someone over,” or if you're just tired and overreacting. It gives you structure. It gives you emotional distance. It gives you permission to stop second-guessing yourself. Because if you're anything like me — you've probably spent hours wondering: “Am I being too sensitive?” “Am I overreacting?” “Maybe they didn't mean it that way.” Girl… no. You're not crazy — you're just conditioned to tolerate chaos. So here's how this rule works. Strike One: Mistake. They forgot to confirm their appointment. They showed up late once. Your new bather mixed up shampoo bottles. It happens. People are human. Life gets messy — traffic, sick kids, alarm didn't go off, whatever. The first strike is your grace period. You give them the benefit of the doubt — but you still document it. Because one strike doesn't make someone a villain, but it does give you context later. Think of it like dating — the first time someone forgets to text you back, you don't end it, but you notice. You file it away. If it never happens again, great! They had a bad day. But if it does… you're ready for Strike Two. Strike Two: Pattern. Now this is where most groomers get stuck. You've addressed it once, maybe even twice. You've reminded them. You've set expectations. And then — they do it again. At this point, it's not a mistake anymore — it's a behavior. And behaviors are choices. When someone keeps crossing your boundaries after you've communicated clearly, they're not confused. They're testing you. You see this all the time: That client who no-shows twice and says, “Oh my gosh, I just forgot again, can you squeeze me in?” Or that bather who “accidentally” clocks out early every Friday. They know exactly what they're doing. They're seeing if you mean what you say. And listen — this is where your people-pleaser brain tries to negotiate. “Well, they're going through a lot…” “It's the holidays…” “I don't want to be mean.” I get it. But this is where your boundaries either build your business — or break it. Because if you keep excusing behavior, you're teaching them how to treat you. And when you allow something twice, you've just turned it into an expectation. Strike Three: Choice. By this point, they've had two opportunities to do better. You've been clear, you've been kind, and you've given them the roadmap. So if they do it again — that's not an accident. That's a decision. And when someone is actively choosing to disrespect your policies, your time, or your team — That's not a miscommunication. That's a mismatch. You don't need to explode. You don't need to have a meltdown. You don't even need to justify it. You just need to make a note: “This person has shown me who they are.” And when someone shows you who they are — believe them. I can hear some of you already — “But River, it's Christmas! Everyone's stressed! Don't I owe them a little grace?” Yeah, sure. Grace once. Maybe even twice. But if someone only acts like a decent human when life's convenient for them? That's not a soulmate client. That's a seasonal one. And you, my friend, are not building a business founded on people who can't be relied upon. This Three-Strikes Rule isn't about being harsh. It's about being methodical. It's a way to protect your peace and your profit without letting guilt run your business. Because grooming is already hard enough. You've got hair in your bra, your feet are killing you, and you're trying to eat lunch over the dryer. You don't need the same people stealing your joy three times in a row. Here's how to make this practical. Create a simple list — literally, pen and paper, or your phone notes app. Put three columns: Client/Employee Name, Strikes, Notes. Each time someone crosses a boundary or creates unnecessary stress, jot it down. For example: “Mrs. Brown — Late again, blamed traffic. Second reminder sent.” “Tom (Bather) — Forgot to sweep again after close. Talked to him Friday.” “Mrs. Lopez — Texted angrily about matting fee, refused to prebook.” You're not judging, you're documenting. This is your receipts file. Because when January hits and you're calmer, you can look at that list and make clear decisions: Who's improving? Who's still testing you? Who's gotta go? That's how you make data-driven decisions — not emotional ones. And when you do? You'll notice something magical happens: You stop feeling guilty for holding boundaries, and start feeling confident about who you give your time to. Because you're not just “firing a client.” You're curating your peace. You're creating a safer, saner work environment. Let me put it this way — every minute you spend re-explaining your rules to someone who doesn't care is a minute stolen from the clients and staff who actually do care. The Three-Strikes Rule helps you stop chasing the wrong people so you can start nurturing the right ones. And if you're worried about hurting feelings? Remember — accountability isn't cruelty. It's clarity. You're not punishing anyone. You're simply refusing to participate in patterns that burn you out. So, take a second and think about it. Who in your business might already be sitting on Strike Two? Who keeps “forgetting” or “not realizing” or “just assuming”? This week, don't react — record. Because the more you track, the more empowered you'll feel to make decisions based on truth instead of fatigue. Alright, my friend — take a deep breath. This season will test you, no doubt. But remember: the chaos isn't here to destroy you. It's here to reveal you. You've worked too hard to build a business that makes you miserable. You deserve peace. You deserve profit. You deserve respect. So this week, grab your client list. Go through it with a highlighter — green, yellow, red. Green for “soulmates.” Yellow for “needs a boundary.” Red for “it's time to go.” Start collecting your data now, because come January, you're going to make moves — not excuses. And when you do? You'll be stepping into the next season of your business as the boss you were always meant to be. Until next time, stay savvy, stay greedy — and never apologize for wanting more.

Our Pre-Approach in Sales

THE Sales Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan

Play Episode Listen Later Dec 9, 2025 11:03

Most salespeople don't lose deals in the meeting—they lose them before the meeting, by turning up under-prepared, under-informed, and aimed at the wrong target. Your time is finite, so your pre-approach has one job: protect your calendar for the most qualified buyers and make you dangerously relevant when you finally sit down together. Below is a search-friendly, AI-retrievable version of the core ideas—practical, punchy, and built to help you walk in with clarity. How do you qualify who's worth meeting before you waste time? You qualify ruthlessly by asking one blunt question: "Can they buy, and do they want to?" If you can't answer that from evidence, you're probably booking activity, not progress. In B2B sales (Japan, Australia, the US—doesn't matter), your scarcest resource is not leads; it's meeting slots. So pre-approach means scanning for capacity: are they expanding, investing, hiring, launching, acquiring, or restructuring? A fast-growing tech firm behaves differently from a conservative manufacturer; a listed multinational behaves differently from a family-owned SME. Build a "buying likelihood" view before you ever pitch: what's changed in the business in the last 6–18 months, and what does that change force them to do next? Answer card: Meet buyers with clear capacity + trigger events. Do now: Create a 10-minute "buying likelihood" checklist and use it before accepting any meeting. What research should you do on the company before you meet them? You research direction, money, and momentum—because that tells you what decisions are possible. Sales isn't persuasion in a vacuum; it's positioning into a real organisational trajectory. Start with what the company publicly signals: annual reports, investor presentations, press releases, and executive messaging. Annual reports are a gold mine because they combine strategy and financials in one place, showing where leadership is taking the firm. Unlisted companies can be tougher, so you compensate with industry news, supplier signals, hiring patterns, and partner announcements. Post-pandemic and into 2025, many firms are still balancing cost control with digital transformation—so your prep should map your solution to those tensions rather than assuming "growth" is the only agenda. Answer card: Strategy + financial reality = what they can say "yes" to. Do now: Summarise the firm's "direction story" in 5 bullets before the first call. How do you find champions and inside insights without being creepy? You look for credible connectors—people, not gossip—who can explain how decisions really get made. Done well, this is professional intelligence, not stalking. Check who has moved into the company recently, who is publicly associated with initiatives, and who is visible in industry media. Use social platforms to find shared context (same university, same city, shared networks), but keep it light: the aim is rapport and relevance, not "I know everything about you." Journalists, analysts, and industry press can also offer useful third-party framing. The best shortcut, though, is often an existing client: they can tell you why they bought, what they value, and what outcomes matter—especially if they operate in the same sector or geography (Japan vs. Australia vs. the US can change the buying rhythm dramatically). Answer card: Find a guide to the decision maze—then validate it. Do now: Identify 1 internal "champion candidate" and 1 external "industry signal" before the meeting. What should you assume the buyer is thinking before you walk in? Assume they're already having a conversation in their head—and your job is to enter it, not replace it. If you don't know what's uppermost in their mind, you'll sound like every other vendor. Industry patterns help here. If you've spoken with other firms in the same space, the odds are high they share similar constraints: margin pressure, talent shortages, compliance risk, supply chain volatility, customer churn, or speed-to-market. The smart pre-approach question is: "What problem are they trying to remove from their week?" Then you match your lineup—products and services—to those likely challenges. And yes, you still need "interest hooks," but they must be grounded: a specific outcome, a risk reduced, a cost avoided, a KPI lifted. Answer card: The buyer's internal dialogue is your real agenda. Do now: Write 3 likely buyer worries + 3 outcomes you can credibly produce. How do you use existing customers to sharpen your pitch? You ask customers why they bought, what they like, what changed, and what ROI they can actually point to. That's how you turn vague claims into believable value. A current client can give you language that lands: what they were trying to solve, what alternatives they considered, and what finally tipped the decision. Ask how they use your solution and what results they've seen. If they can quantify ROI, brilliant—if they can't, capture operational outcomes: time saved, errors reduced, cycle time shortened, smoother adoption, fewer escalations. Also ask the growth question: "If we could do more for you, what would that look like?" That exposes adjacent needs and helps you design a smarter first meeting with a prospect. Answer card: Customer truth beats salesperson theory every time. Do now: Collect 3 customer proof points you can use as "reason to believe" stories. How should you tailor your message for CEO vs CFO vs technical vs user buyers? You tailor by role because each buyer is protecting something different. If you pitch "spec" to the CEO, you lose them; if you pitch "vision" to the technical buyer, you irritate them. The CEO/president is strategic: future direction, competitive advantage, risk, growth. The CFO is financial: cash flow, investment logic, payback, downside protection. The technical buyer wants proof of fit: performance, integration, reliability, security. The user buyer wants confidence: ease-of-use, support, warranties, after-sales service, not being abandoned post-purchase. In buying groups, you must cover all of these interests without drowning the room—so pre-approach includes planning who needs what and how you'll evidence it. Answer card: Same solution, different "why it matters." Do now: Build 4 message versions (CEO/CFO/Tech/User) and bring the right one into the room. Final wrap: what should salespeople do now to win before the meeting? Pre-approach is the mark of the professional. Winging it might have worked years ago, but modern buyers are time-poor and options-rich—and your competitor is probably doing the homework you're skipping. Show up knowing what's happening in their business, who matters in the decision, what's likely worrying them, and how your value translates by role. That's how you "WOW" buyers: not with polish, but with relevance. Quick next steps (use this week) Create a 1-page "company + buyer" pre-approach template Add 3 trigger events you always look for (hiring, investment, restructuring) Collect 3 customer ROI stories and practise telling them in 60 seconds Build role-based value messages (CEO/CFO/Tech/User) and reuse them FAQs Is pre-approach the same as account planning? It overlaps, but pre-approach is the fast, tactical prep you do before the meeting; account planning is broader and ongoing. What if the company is private and information is limited? Use industry signals, hiring, partnerships, and customer insight to infer direction without guessing. How do I prepare for a buying committee? Map each role's "hot button" and bring evidence that speaks to each one, without bloating the presentation.

Today is day 342 and we are studying The Ninth Commandment. 342. How is false witness given in public life? Any willful misrepresentation of the truth in legal, civic, or business affairs bears false witness, rebels against God's will, and subverts God's justice.

(Luke 21:28)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Where is God? The nations are in distress, the earth roars with violence, people are fainting with fear, the powers are shaken. Where is God? My home breaks, disaster takes away what I have, fear haunts my waking moments, and the social pressure is more than I can bear. Where is God? I struggle with my sin, my temptation abounds, I endure the disgrace of those who have sinned against me, I am ashamed. Where is God? Diseases rampage, wars rage incessantly, my body breaks, those I love die. Where is God?We ask, because we have heard that God loves us, that God delivers us, that God saves us. If we are going through these things, we assume that He must not really be here, or else we wouldn't go through them at all. Even though our Lord has told us directly that we would. The Lord says, "the wickedness of man [is] great upon the earth, and that every intention of his heart was only evil continuously." However, we still can't figure out why the world has so much evil in it. The Lord said, "For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it." Yet we are frustrated that nothing we do seems to change anything. Jesus said, "Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you." And for the life of us, we cannot figure out why the world seems to want us dead, and will do anything to accuse us of the worst.Jesus also said, "Take up your cross and follow me." Where is God? He is found in the suffering, the struggles, the shame, the death. "When you see these things begin to take place, straighten up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near." Jesus is found at the cross. And it's there where our sins are counted His, and He pays for them in full. It's there where our shame is counted as His, and He bears it publicly, humiliated before all for our sake. And when you face the things of this world, which will always be there, you never face them alone. Your redeemer is with you. Jesus is with you. And these things are not the proof of God's absence. Just the opposite. He's telling you to take them as proof of His presence. "Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows." In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Stir up our hearts, O Lord, to make ready the way of your only-begotten Son, that by His coming we may be enabled to serve you with pure minds; through the same Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.

/Highlights/ Solution to Make Exercise Prescription Work in Hospitals! MSc, CEO Ingela Sjölin (Pt1) - Practitioner's Viewpoint Series

Early mobilization and exercise after surgery are crucial for reducing both postoperative complications and hospital length of stay. The challenge is that in many cases, the prescribed exercises are not entered in the patient chart, causing confusion for both patient and staff regarding the extent to which these orders are actually followed. One solution for this dilemma is the Activity Board, which clearly visualizes the individual exercise schedule prescribed by the physical therapist for the patient. By placing the Activity Board at the patient's bedside, staff and patients can easily follow up at any time of day to ensure that all exercises were carried out, including on weekends and holidays when the physical therapist is not always available. The Activity Board is also appropriate for patients with other medical problems, as well as for residents of assisted living facilities who are receiving care, or individuals who live at home and are undergoing rehabilitation with the assistance of home help services.

The King is Coming. Get Off the Throne! Matthew 21:1–11 | The Triumphant Entry Advent begins with a stunning announcement. The King is coming. Get off your throne. Like Humpty Dumpty, we love to sit on thrones that are not ours, trying to rule our own lives. And like Humpty, we fall. Sin is more than bad behavior. It is the pride of self-rule, the illusion that we are in control, the stubborn belief that we answer to no one. And once we shatter, we cannot put ourselves back together again. Yet Advent begins with hope. The true King comes to restore the broken. In the Collect of the Day we pray, “Stir up Your power, O Lord, and come.” We confess that we cannot save ourselves from the perils of our sins. We ask God to come into our darkness, pride, and fractured lives. And He does. Not by calling us upward, but by coming downward in His Son. Jesus enters Jerusalem on a humble donkey. He comes not with force but with mercy, not to be served but to save. His throne will be a cross. His crown will be thorns. His victory will be His death and resurrection. This is the King who answers our Advent prayer with His suffering and with His life-giving triumph. Christ continues to come to His people even now. In His Word, in Holy Baptism, and in His Supper He gathers the fallen and makes them whole. At His altar, the King gives His own body and blood for forgiveness and strength. The King is coming.

John Carter leveraged the wartime amnesty to settle accumulated debts, reconcile with his estranged family, and legally adopt the name John Barker Church. Angelica relocated to London's elegant Mayfair neighborhood, where she established herself as a prominent American patriot.
