He emphasizes the importance of painting from life, particularly through plein air work, which helped him develop his observational skills and capture the nuances of light and landscape. Scott's journey involved building his art business gradually, selling directly to collectors, and maintaining a professional approach that includes goal-setting, consistent communication, and nurturing relationships with art enthusiasts. He advises aspiring artists to paint frequently, start small, avoid overwhelming themselves, and focus on creating authentic work that resonates with their personal vision. He also tells us about the power of the "one thing" that artists can be doing daily to get closer to meeting their goals. Finally, Scott tells us about his upcoming workshops and exhibitions, including a plein air event in Redstone, Colorado, and the Colorado Governor's Show at the Loveland Museum.Scott's FASO site:https://www.scottruthven.com/Scott's YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@ScottRuthvenFineArtScott's Social Media:https://www.instagram.com/scottruthvenfineart/https://www.facebook.com/ScottRuthvenFineArt/

It's Monday, April 14th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus U.S. missionary abducted at gunpoint while preaching in South Africa Josh Sullivan, a U.S. Baptist missionary, was kidnapped at gunpoint as he preached Thursday evening at Fellowship Baptist Church in Motherwell, South Africa, reports International Christian Concern. According to police, four masked gunmen entered the church late last night during a prayer meeting with about 30 attendees. The assailants stole two cell phones before abducting the 45-year-old pastor and taking him in his own vehicle, a silver Toyota 4Runner. The car was later found abandoned about a mile from the church.   A husband and father of six, Sullivan has been a missionary in South Africa since 2018. Sullivan and his family are members of Fellowship Baptist Church, an independent Baptist church in Maryville, Tennessee, where Sullivan has been on staff. His wife and children are among those who witnessed the kidnapping. Here at The Worldview, we're reminded of the inspiring words of Christ following Peter's bold affirmation. In Caesarea Phillipi, Peter said that Christ was “the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” That's when Jesus said in Matthew 16:18, that upon that revelation, He would build His church, and “the gates of Hades will not overcome it.” Join me and pray that the Lord would honor Josh Sullivan's preaching and safely restore him to his family. China raises duties on US goods to 125% Last Friday, China hiked its tariffs on imports of U.S. goods to 125%, hitting back at Donald Trump's decision to single out the world's No.2 economy for higher duties, while dismissing the U.S. president's tariff strategy as "a joke," reports Reuters. Investors had been waiting to see how Beijing would respond to Trump's move on Wednesday to effectively raise tariffs on Chinese goods to 145% while announcing a 90-day pause on tariffs on dozens of other countries' goods. Last year, China purchased $150 billion of U.S. goods. White House Press Secretary prays to Jesus before briefing White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is the youngest person to ever serve the president in that capacity at the age of 27. Not only is she an articulate champion for President Donald Trump and the “Make America Great Again” agenda, but she is also an unashamed follower of Jesus Christ. Listen to this simple, powerful, and unapologetic prayer to her Savior  just moments before she walks into the lions' den of the White House Press Briefing. LEAVITT: “Lord Jesus, please give us the strength, the knowledge, the ability to articulate our words, have fun, and be confident. In Jesus' name, Amen.” Gone are the days that a lesbian God-hater stands at that podium. Judge: Columbia University activist Mahmoud Khalil can be deported Last Friday, an immigration judge in Louisiana ruled that Columbia University graduate student Mahmoud Khalil can be deported from America because he is a national security risk following his pro-Hamas demonstrations at Columbia, reports the Associated Press. Immigration Judge Jamee Comans gave the green light to the Trump administration's desire to deport Khalil.  Without such deportation, the government contended that his presence posed “potentially serious foreign policy consequences.” Colorado Governor signs anti-gun law Democratic Colorado Governor Jared Polis, a self-professed homosexual who has entered into a faux marriage with his “husband,” has dealt a heavy blow to Coloradans' Second Amendment freedom by signing Senate Bill 3 into law, reports the Colorado State Shooting Association. This oppressive permit-to-purchase scheme is a direct attack on their Second Amendment rights, afflicting Coloradans with bureaucratic hurdles to block their God-given liberties, President George Washington declared, “The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference—they deserve a place of honor with all that's good.” RFK, Jr vows to know causes of autism epidemic by September As he sat in Trump's Cabinet meeting, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spoke to the autism epidemic and what he proposed to do about it. KENNEDY: “The autism rates have gone from one in 31 from one in 10,000 when I was a kid. At your direction, by September, we will know what has caused the autism epidemic.” Kennedy noted that HHS has “launched a massive testing and research effort that's going to involve hundreds of scientists from around the world.”  Once they have identified the causes, hopefully by September, HHS will advocate for the elimination of those exposures. Libraries partner with Planned Parenthood to offer free sex health resources And finally, if you thought the library was a place to borrow books for a research paper or read the local daily paper, think again! Twelve Sacramento, California Public Libraries now feature “sexual health resource cabinets” inside public libraries to give the public, including children, access to items like condoms, Sexually Transmitted Diseases tests, and pregnancy tests, reports CBS News. These cabinets are being stocked by none other than Planned Parenthood, America's Abortion Giant, which killed 392,715 pre-born babies in 2023 alone.  In fact, QR codes on the free literature not only enables library patrons to easily find their local Planned Parenthood affiliate, but also to get their immoral worldview through their God-forsaken website. Michael Reed, a parent, was disturbed by the easy access to the sexual health resource cabinets, especially for kids. REED: “It's a little shocking. It seems a little inappropriate just to target children that way.” But Todd Deck, the community engagement services manager for Sacramento Public Libraries, thought the libraries were doing something wonderfully noble. DECK: "We want to remove the stigma around these resources. Libraries are essential to healthy, thriving communities. So, having resources that are of interest and needs of that community is really critical. I do believe it is our responsibility to help have an informed community regardless of the topic -- that way people can make informed decisions about their health." Greg Burt, Vice President of the California Family Council, rejected the librarian's absurd worldview. BURT: “Now parents would have to be concerned. Instead of coming back with a book, they're going to come back with a condom. “This is really about cutting parents out. It's about sexualizing our kids at younger and younger ages.” In Matthew 18:6, Jesus said, “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in Me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.” Not surprisingly, the cabinets have been re-stocked multiple times since being installed six weeks ago as they have been set up both in the library's main hub and in the adult section. Elizabeth Johnston, a Christian mother of 10, is not surprised by the hostility to a Judeo-Christian worldview at the library. The American Library Association's one-time president Emily Drabinski, who served from July 2022 to 2024, was a self-avowed “Marxist lesbian.” She wrote a paper on “queering the catalogue” and said wildly inflammatory things about parents who do not want their children to read sexually inappropriate literature. So, keep in mind, the library is no friend of the family. Enter with caution.

Colorado's Democrat governor said Thursday that he is providing state aircraft and vehicles to help with changing voting system passwords that were accidentally leaked on a state website. The mistake comes amid skepticism of voting systems, even though U.S. election nationwide remain fair and reliable. The passwords were left on a spreadsheet online for months, Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold announced on Tuesday. Now, local, state and federal agencies are working together to change the passwords by Thursday evening, and analyze logs to ensure there hasn't been any tampering.

   Slam the Gavel welcomes back Carl Roberts to the podcast. Carl was last on Season 5, Episode 12. Carl Roberts is Founder of Colorado Resilience and SplitSmart.     Carl is trying to bring solutions into the divorce/family court process where a case shouldn't drag out for years, but only 30 days. There are so many homicides and suicides that are perpetuated by the Family Court system as well as CPS. Carl shared his ideas on the screen (Slam the Gavel YouTube) that contain solutions. In doing presentations, Carl discussed his ideas and solutions and was met with  silence. The path to restoration, justice and family healing is what Carl has to offer people that are divorcing and it seems the judiciary/family law doesn't want any part of it. Because of lack of accountability, oversight and transparency the court system is in the state it is in.     For instance here are 3 national judicial organizations. Also, everyone should tag relevant state government departments, agencies and policymakers within each. We need to stop just preaching to the choir and to make sure the policymakers are seeing and hearing our pleas for change. You'll have to research each group/person on each platform to see how you can tag them. IAALS (Institute for Advancement of American Legal System) iaals.du.edu, NCSC (National Center for State Courts) ncsc.org, NCJFCJ (National Council of Juvenile & Family Court Judges) ncjfcj.org. There are state departments/agencies such as Colorado Department of Human Resources, Colorado Courts and Colorado Governor, Jared Polis.     We discussed how the one problem is people hiding money and  the second problem is putting the kids in the middle. It's going to take one judge with the guts and authority to solve this equation. It just takes ONE to make it happen. Family court is a CRAP SHOOT. It all revolves around MONEY. In his next newsletter, Carl has called it Broken Systems, Before It Happens To You.To Reach Carl Roberts: coloradoresilience.org  Carl@ColoradoResilience.org and splitsmart.comThis episode of Slam the Gavel is sponsored by CPSprotect Consulting Services.

AP correspondent Norman Hall reports: Colorado-Gun-Control

It's Thursday, April 27th, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Eritrean officials arrested 100 Christians Police in Eritrea, Africa arrested over 100 Christians in the country's capital earlier this month. The group of Christians was primarily made up of students who were gathered for a time of singing and worship. Now they are in the infamous Mai Serwa prison, known for its brutal treatment of prisoners. This increases the number of Christians imprisoned indefinitely, without trial, to over 500. Release International describes the country “as the North Korea of Africa, resembling one giant prison.” Please pray for our brothers and sisters in Christ in Eritrea, ranked 4th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian. Poll: Belief in God is irrelevant to good values A new survey from Pew Research found people across Europe and North America say it is not necessary to believe in God to be moral and have good values. People in Southeast Asia and the Middle East were more likely to say belief in God is necessary for morality. In the U.S., 65% of adults say morality is possible without God. Majorities across nearly every demographic agreed except among Protestants. The country with the highest level of support for separating God and morality is Sweden at 90%, followed by Australia at 85%, France at 77%, and the U.K. and the Netherlands which were both tied at 76%. The Netherlands expands access to euthanasia to kids Speaking of the Netherlands, the western European country announced earlier this month it will expand access to euthanasia. Back in 2022, the Netherlands became the first country to legalize such killings. Currently, terminally ill babies under one year of age and children over 12 can be euthanized.  The new expanded policy will allow the killing of terminally ill children between 1 and 12 years of age.  Georgia school forced to reinstate Christian teacher In the U.S., a Christian substitute teacher recently won a case against a Georgia school district. Alliance Defending Freedom represented Lindsey Barr in the case against Bryan County Schools. The school fired Barr last year after she voiced concerns over a book depicting homosexuality that would be read at the school library.  Under the recent settlement, the school must pay over $180,000 and reinstate Barr.  Colorado Governor bans Abortion Pill reversals On April 14, Colorado Democrat Governor Jared Polis signed a law banning Abortion-Pill reversals.  However, Bella Health is challenging the law. The faith-based clinic provides Abortion Pill reversals and says the new law violates free speech and religious exercise.  Women who get medication abortions must take two drugs, mifepristone and misoprostol. Many women regret the process after taking the first drug and can reverse it through the Abortion Pill Reversal protocol.  The Abortion Pill Rescue Network estimates that the lives of over 4,000 babies were saved last year through such reversals.  56th anniversary of Colorado's pro-abortion law Speaking of the Centennial state, this week marks 56 years since Colorado became the first state in the U.S. to loosen restrictions on abortion. Republican Governor John Love signed the pro-abortion law on April 25, 1967. The law legalized the killing of unborn babies in cases of rape or incest, the likelihood of a deformed baby, and the life or mental health of the mother.  In Proverbs 8:36, Wisdom says, “He who sins against me wrongs his own soul; all those who hate me love death.” A Biblical worldview continues to plummet And finally, Arizona Christian University released its latest research on how the faith of Americans has shifted since the COVID-19 pandemic.  The incidence of Biblical worldview in the population has dropped from 6% to 4%. Church attendance has declined by six percentage points to 33% of the adult population. That's 15 million fewer churchgoers each week.  The study identified one third of the population as born-again Christian or those who believe they will go to Heaven because they have confessed their sins and accepted Jesus as their Savior. Among that demographic, people who believe they have a God-given calling or purpose in life is down 42 percentage points. And deep commitment to practicing one's religious faith is down 35 percentage points.  1 John 2:24 says, “Let what you heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then you too will abide in the Son and in the Father.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Thursday, April 27th in the year of our Lord 2023. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Tucker Carlson didn't last long as the top rated program for Fox News. The zeitgeist pulled him quick, when a little truth about the more significant matters began slipping out around the edges.

As governors and mayors announce their spending plans for fiscal 2024, the panel of experts discuss state and local budgets in uncertain times. Our panel of experts includes Shelby Kerns, executive director, National Association of State Budget Officers; Eric Kim, senior director, Fitch Ratings; Lauren Larson, director, Colorado Governor's Office of State Planning and Budgeting; and Gabriel Petek, legislative analyst, State of California. Notable Quotes: Notable Quotes: “People only think about the impact on state budgets when we are facing a recession, when it's getting closer, when the risks are getting higher; I can assure you that state budget officers are always thinking about it. They're always planning for it.” - Shelby Kerns “We think states are well positioned for volatility. After the Great Recession states really had more than a decade to recover and learn the lessons about revenue forecasting and building up fiscal resilience. I think for the most part, they took that to heart and came into the pandemic with a solid set of tools to manage volatility.” - Eric Kim “This is a really exciting time in Colorado. Our revenues last year were up 24% and as a benchmark, we are measuring our trendline from pre-pandemic and we are exceeding our pre-pandemic trend line....” - Lauren Larson “But I do want to be clear: Our office is not saying that the state should never use reserves. If after solving the level of deficit that we estimate the problem has gotten worse or the economy is going into a recession, we would say that that is the time to use reserves and it would be warranted at that point.” - Gabe Petek Be sure to subscribe to Special Briefing to stay up to date on the world of public finance.

This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, a certain Republican candidate for Colorado Governor is pilled to the gills, or the ears, or the claws. The self-described “pro life” candidate for US Senate who is described by other people as “pro choice” not only voted for an abortion ban that lost by 20 points...he actually signed the petition to get it on the ballot. The GOP candidate for Attorney General may have waved off the only group in the country willing to help him win his election; some candidates choose not to run TV ads, which is actually a really big mistake; Republicans are starting to freak out about what happens if they win the US House in 2022 (Our advice? Stop trying to win the House in 2022); and we try out a new game, where there are no winners and everyone is a loser.

With the passage of the IIJA in November 2021, governments face the challenge of allocating more than $1 trillion of funding in a strategic manner that address both past neglected needs and paves the way for a sustainable future. Panelists discuss innovative solutions being pursued, roadblocks that are on the horizon, and the overall impact of this funding on the nation's infrastructure and economy. This Special Briefing features a panel of experts, including Patrick Brett, managing director and head, Citi Municipal Debt Capital Markets; Mayor Jorge Elorza, City of Providence, Rhode Island; Lauren Larson, director, Colorado Governor's Office of State Planning and Budgeting; and Larry Parks, co-founder, Forethought Advisors. Notable Quotes: “When you consider that 80 percent of the nation's infrastructure spending comes from state and local governments, this new federal funding is truly a gift that will keep on giving,” William Glasgall said. “We have a lot of divided governments at the state level,” said Larry Parks, co-founder of Forethought Advisors, which provides strategic counsel and political intelligence to clients in financial services and other regulated industries. “Let's say you have a Republican legislature in Michigan and a Democratic governor. Does Detroit benefit or not?” “We're expecting 120 programs to receive some type of money here, and that's in ten of our state agencies, so it's quite a coordination effort,” said Lauren Larson, director of the Colorado Governor's Office of State Planning and Budgeting.

Pillow Czar Mike Lindell teased yet another smoking gun-level info dump proving Trump won 2020. Repub Marjorie Taylor Greene appeared freaked out over testifying in an upcoming trial.

Speaking of the Magic Kingdom, conservative load Laura Loomer led a lightly attended ineffective protest at Disney's theme Park.

Abortion Colorado intro and voicer

This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, we made it into triple digits! Meanwhile, gas prices are up, so are profits for Big Oil. Could these things possibly be related? We ask Oak Creek Colorado bar owner, AAA Colorado Spokesperson, and enormous Deadhead Skyler McKinley what's driving the increase in gas prices, and it ain't Joe Biden. The Colorado Governor's race gets sillier as presumptive nominee Heidi Ganahl currently trails one of her primary contenders who believes among other things that we should let wolves murder people for being homeless, we review some new polling courtesy of ProgressNow Colorado and Global Strategy Group's Rocky Mountaineer with returning guest Andrew Baumann, and we revisit the doomed recall of Governor Polis and last episode's guest Secretary of State Jena Griswold. 

Jennie and Dianne are joined by special guest Casper Johnson as they revisit one of Diane's favorite cemeteries, Greenwood Cemetery in Cañon City, Colorado. They will begin with a brief history of the cemetery and then continue with the tragic story of Joe Arridy, a gentle man with an intellectual disability who was wrongly convicted and executed for a crime he never could have even begun to commit. Join us for Joe's Ordinary, Extraordinary story and how it has helped to reshape the justice system. (Warning: this episode does contain conversation regarding rape, sodomy, and murder.

Driving home last summer after a particularly exhausting day, I was craving an escape, an adventure or some thought-provoking podcast to make the drive a bit more enjoyable.  I came across Johanna Garton as a guest on a podcast and my interest peaked.  I knew and had worked with her mom, Jane Garton.  Years ago I knew Jane was researching a book about a local mountain climber years before however Jane's Parkinsons diagnosis got in the way of her completing the book. The local mountain climber was Christine Boskoff and ironically went to high school with her daughter Johanna.  Johanna picked up the story and released Edge of the Map in April of 2020.   After listening to the podcast with Johanna I immediately bought Edge of the Map and loved getting lost in the adventurous life and stories from the thrill seeking, emotional roller coaster to an escape to Mt. Everest and beyond.  I reached out to Johanna and shared this crazy idea of a podcast I was launching.  During one of our interactions as we unwound the thread of the podcast episode she stopped and exclaimed “wait, your podcast is about family adventures?  You should probably know that my first book is about our family adventure story.”  I agreed to read the first book before scheduling our recording and boy am I glad I did.  As I read the first book, Awakening East, I got a better glimpse of the badass, adventurous mom that Johanna Garton is.   Johanna Garton is a mother, author, and cross country coach who has played many roles throughout her life. A graduate of Syracuse University in journalism, and a law degree from DePaul University.  As an AmeriCorps VISTA member in Chicago, Johanna worked on behalf of refugee survivors of torture at the Heartland Alliance. She has served on the Colorado Governor's Commission on Community Service and taught advocacy and legal issues for nonprofits at Regis University. Several years of living and working in Asia, including time in China with her husband, son, and daughter, inspired her to write her first book, Awakening East. She and her family live in Denver. Key Takeaways When you are in the middle on an adventure, you can't always see the story unfolding.  What started as a blog to connect with friends and family while living in China transformed into a book about 6-7 months later Allow for blanks in your plans to allow your partner to see themselves in your adventure story.  Even though Johanna had most of the concept planned out, she engaged her husband throughout and gave him ownership of different elements.   The typical refrain that children are resilient took Johanna by surprise as things didn't land as expected when they shared plans with their kids.  It took almost 6 months for their kids to get their stride in China, so much so that they didn't want to leave.  There is a balance between persistence and adaptation.  Each kid saw things differently and what resonated was different.   Living in China for a year was every imaginable adjective.  While Johanna would go in with fewer expectations, she also acknowledged so much of the beauty was in the messiness that she did not wish the experience to be different.   The year abroad changed the trajectory of Johanna's career.  Today she is an author and can't imagine doing anything differently.   The difference between is author and a writer is that an author is a fancy title with perhaps some luck in getting their writing published.  Since Johanna's story is already written, she is now busy writing others stories and doesn't find herself writing for pleasure as much as she previously did.  “I fail a lot, and my kids see me fail often. That trait may have been the ingredient to see me through the areas that induce fear.”   Finding your voice and the voice of the female climber allowed Johanna to bring more humanity to the Edge of the Map story.  “It was a very different experience to write my story vs. writing someone else's story.”  Document your life in whatever format works best for you.  It's important to keep track of more than the highlight reels.  Johanna uses voice memos app on her phone to capture family interactions 2020 was not the year to release a book, however she found Edge of the Map has turned out to be a story of resiliency that has resonated with so many readers.   Buy the book and then leave a review on Amazon to help Johanna continue to rank higher and be exposed to more readers.   Awakening East is an older book so it may be hard to find in independent bookstores.  I am including the link to it on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2N9Mn3o  However, if you purchase Edge of the Map from her website www.johannagarton.com  and use the coupon code SHERPA for 25% off.  They are both great reads for on the beach or by the fire, wherever you might be right now.  To connect with or follow Johanna Garton on social media: Website: www.johannagarton.com Email: johanna@johannagarton.com Facebook: Johanna Garton, Author Instagram: @johannagartonbooks   Ordinary Sherpa Fans Leave a written review for this podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ordinary-sherpa-family-adventure-coaching-and-design/id1539255067 Subscribe to our Adventure to-go email newsletter:  https://ordinarysherpa.com/  Join the Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ordinarysherpa Follow: https://www.instagram.com/ordinarysherpa/ Join the Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ordinarysherpa Check additional resources on our website: https://ordinarysherpa.com/
