There's something satisfying about hammering through a muddy trail and then cruising home comfortably on pavement. That's exactly the kind of performance Kumho Tire targeted with the new Road Venture RT, its new rugged-terrain tire built for trucks and SUVs. The Road Venture RT sits between Kumho's all-terrain and mud-terrain offerings, giving drivers weekday comfort and weekend capability.We hit Hyundai Motor Group's California Proving Grounds in the Mojave Desert to test the Road Venture RT across four distinct driving modules: mud, pavement, trails, and water-soaked autocross.Kumho Tire Road Venture RT TechnologyKumho said it designed the tread to be aggressive and look like it can conquer any terrain, both on- and off-road. The design, robust construction, and new compound technologies enhance that, according to the manufacturer.Rick Cunat, Managing Director at Kumho America Technical Center, said the design details deliver more than just looks. "These features give the Road Venture RT an advantage in off-road applications," he said. "The angled sipes and zigzag grooves provide a high number of biting edges that allow the Road Venture RT to achieve high traction. These features enable the tire to achieve a high level of performance in snow and off-road."Coming This FallThe Road Venture RT will be available in 27 initial sizes from 17- to 22-inch fitments. Kumho will release more sizes in 2026. It includes a 30-day satisfaction trial, road hazard warranty, and a 50,000-mile treadwear warranty.Watch the episode to see how Kumho's Road Venture RT performs across multiple conditions from the Mojave Desert.

Ps. Samuel Preaches to us that it's time to move out of our comfort zone.

It's been a heavy week. Grief, questions, even a deep ache over the brokenness of our world. But I'm holding onto this: when things feel dark, Jesus' light shines even brighter.

In this episode we open up about the reality of love, marriage, and friendship while raising a newborn and running companies. From the myth of balance to why you should never stop dating your partner, we dive into love languages, conflict, attraction, and the importance of intentional friendships.We get raw about postpartum struggles, resentment, and how the smallest moments can build intimacy. Plus, we explore why dating your friends can be just as important as dating your partner.

The 5 Spiritual Cycles That Keep You Stuck in Fitness (And How to Break Them With God's Word)Are you a woman over 40 trying to get healthier, stronger, and more confident in your body—but feel stuck no matter how hard you try? You're not alone. Often, the roadblocks to fitness aren't just physical—they're spiritual cycles that keep us in loops of shame, fear, and frustration.In today's episode, we break down 5 spiritual cycles that can keep you from seeing real results, and I share practical steps you can take to break free with God's Word.Pattern: “I blew my diet again. I'll never get this right.” → Quit → Start over.Scripture: “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus.” (Romans 8:1)Practical Step: When you mess up, replace self-attack with confession + reset. Write: “I failed today, but I'm not a failure. I begin again in grace.”Shame keeps us trapped in self-sabotage. Remember, God's grace allows you to start fresh each day.Pattern: Stress → Food/Couch → Regret → Repeat.Scripture: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” (Psalm 23:1)Practical Step: Pause before reaching for comfort food. Pray a quick 20-second prayer: “Lord, be my portion right now.”Turning to food or habits for comfort is normal—but your ultimate comfort and satisfaction comes from God.Pattern: Obsessing over calories/results → Fear of slipping → Burnout.Scripture: “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.” (Proverbs 3:5)Practical Step: Release control daily. Start workouts with: “I train from love, not for love.”Fitness isn't about perfection—it's about trust and consistency, not fear.Pattern: “This is just who I am” → Low belief → Half effort → Stuck.Scripture: “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature.” (2 Corinthians 5:17)Practical Step: Make an “I Am in Christ” list and read it before workouts. Let your true identity fuel your actions.Your results follow your beliefs about who you really are in Christ.Pattern: Emotional heaviness → No energy → Numb out with food or inactivity.Scripture: “Forgive as the Lord forgave you.” (Colossians 3:13)Practical Step: Write down one name (even your own) and pray blessing over them before meals or workouts. Release the weight in your spirit so your body can follow.Bitterness and unforgiveness weigh down the soul—and the body follows suit.Fitness isn't just physical—it's spiritual too. When you break these cycles, you're not just losing pounds; you're releasing spiritual baggage that has been weighing you down.Faith + Fitness Skool Community:We help women 40+ get stronger in their walk with Christ and drop pounds.

Adam works with a client to help them feel more psosperous, to change decased old beliefs around money, growth and even motherhood. This session uses a metaphor of a pear tree to represent childhood beliefs and the thoughts and behaviours that come from them, and to change something toxic or useless into something very beneficial.

When we gather together, we do so to honor God, to seek His kingdom first, and to trust that He is present with us—Emmanuel, God with us. Life is full of unexpected events, and how we respond to them reveals the true state of our hearts. Easy days rarely show our character; it's the curveballs, the tragedies, and the moments of loss that expose what's really inside us. Whether it's a personal crisis, a national tragedy, or simply the daily grind, these moments test us and shape us for eternity. Reflecting on the story of David in 1 Samuel 30, we see a powerful example of how to respond when everything falls apart. David and his men returned to find their city burned and their families taken. The initial responses were deeply human: some wept until they had no strength left, others looked for someone to blame. These are natural reactions, but they don't bring healing or restoration. Pain is unavoidable, but misery is optional; it's all about how we steward our pain. David, however, chose a different path. Instead of looking inward in despair or outward in blame, he looked upward—he strengthened himself in the Lord. This was a hinge moment in his life, a turning point that prepared him to become king. He prayed, sought godly counsel, praised God, remembered God's past faithfulness, and sometimes simply waited in trust. These practices are not just ancient history; they are the blueprint for how we can respond to our own trials. We are called to cast our cares on Jesus, to surround ourselves with people who point us back to Him, to praise even when it's hard, to remember God's faithfulness, and to wait on Him when we have no words left. Communion reminds us that evil does not win—what looked like the darkest day in history became Good Friday because God turned evil to good. We live in hope, knowing that one day all evil will be destroyed and we will dwell with God forever. Until then, we don't waste our days in fear or bitterness, but we find our strength, rest, and victory in Jesus.

Success Has a Price—And Comfort Can't Affordhttps://lifemotivationdaily.blogspot.com/

In this week's episode of America on the Road, host Jack Nerad takes a close look at the 2025 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid Limited and walks away thoroughly impressed. This top-tier Elantra hybrid doesn't try to reinvent the compact sedan, but it delivers a balanced blend of premium features, smooth handling, and outstanding efficiency. With a 50 MPG combined rating, dual 10.25-inch digital screens, ventilated front seats, and Hyundai's full suite of advanced safety tech, all for just over $30,000, the stunning hybrid punches well above its class. The dual-clutch transmission offers a more engaging drive than typical hybrids, and the sharp styling gives it a confident, upscale look. It begs the question: Is this the best-value hybrid sedan you can buy? Also in this episode, co-host Chris Teague takes the 2026 Nissan Rogue Platinum out for a week-long spin to see what the top-trim version of the popular compact SUV brings to the asphalt. The answer is: quite a lot. From quilted leather seats and a panoramic moonroof to an intuitive Google-powered infotainment system and advanced ProPILOT Assist 2.1 semi-autonomous tech, this SUV makes a case for itself as a true luxury-lite option. Its overachieving 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder puts out 201 horsepower, while delivering laudable fuel economy. Comfort and convenience are clearly the priorities, with wireless smartphone integration, a premium Bose sound system, and clever cargo solutions among its bag of tricks. But is the Rogue Platinum a high-end bargain or just an over-equipped, over-priced niche vehicle? We'll share our thoughts. This week's special guest is car-builder, DIY expert, and Quaker State influencer Anatalia Villaranda. Known for her energetic presence and hands-on knowledge, Villaranda talks about how she got into cars, her favorite builds, and what it takes to grow a garage-based brand in today's automotive landscape. Whether you're into turning wrenches or just watching builds online, her passion and insights bring a fresh voice to the enthusiast community. Auto News This Week In the news, Tesla's EV market share is slipping, dropping to just 38% in August, its lowest since 2017. With rivals like Hyundai, Toyota, and Volkswagen gaining ground in the EV space through aggressive pricing and fresher lineups, Tesla's once-untouchable lead looks anything but secure. It's a wake-up call for a company that's been slow to refresh its core models while its CEO's attention has drifted elsewhere. Things aren't especially rosy at Ford either. The giant automaker is recalling over 1.5 million vehicles due to defective rear-view cameras that can display blank or distorted images. Affected models span from Mustangs to F-Series trucks, and some units even had cameras supplied by Magna that are now part of a separate, broader recall. It's the latest in a long string of issues that have made Ford the recall leader this year. Mercedes-Benz has completed an historic 749-mile drive from Germany to Sweden using solid-state battery tech. Using lithium-metal cells developed with Factorial Energy, the test highlights how this next-gen battery format could radically improve EV range, performance, and durability. The brand says it aims to bring this breakthrough to production by decade's end. Lexus has unveiled the 2026 IS 350, giving its compact sports sedan a sharper new design, more tech, and upgraded materials. With F Sport trims, forged bamboo accents, and an available 17-speaker Mark Levinson sound system, Lexus is hoping to keep performance-sedan lovers from switching brands. A 311-horsepower V6 and retuned suspension aim to keep things fun behind the wheel. But where's the V8, Chris and Jack ask. In additional Lexus news, Toyota will consolidate Lexus production in Indiana, shifting ES sedan production out of Kentucky in response to tariffs and changing market demands. Some high-end models will return to Japanese factories,

CLICK THIS LINK TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE FOREVER: https://TrainWithAndyElliott.comIn this powerful morning team meeting, Andy Elliott breaks down why you must Die a Thousand Deaths and kill the old version of yourself in order to rise as the closer you were meant to be. Comfort is the enemy of greatness...if you stay the same, you'll stay broke.

Today's episode is a holy gut punch. We're naming the idol. We're dragging comfort into the light, and we're slamming the door shut. Comfort isn't just a personal weakness—it's the silent killer of courage, calling, and your God-given potential. The world may praise “taking it easy.” But Scripture calls warriors, not spectators. Jesus Himself didn't come to make you cozy—He came to make you dangerous to the darkness.So what's it gonna be when your moment comes? Will you stay safe—or will you live bold, broken out of the cage for Christ? Brace yourself, brothers and sisters. This one's raw, real, and rooted in the unchanging truth of God's Word.“Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.” - Luke 9:23Episode Highlights:01:30 – This drug is our addiction to comfort. You see, many of us, we just sit here and we don't think that comfort is an addiction because quite honestly, our culture is constantly celebrating this. In fact, entire industries are built on making our lives easier, faster, softer, more insulated from inconvenience. But spiritually speaking, for a moment, this addiction to comfort can. Can be just as dangerous as several bad things that we're all familiar with, namely, lust, greed, pride, so many more. Because it can quietly pull you away from God's purposes without you even realizing what's going on. 08:21 – Here's a truth bomb in your face: God doesn't need you comfortable. He needs you committed. And commitment means sacrifice. It means risk. It means putting your reputation, resources, and even your very life on the line for the sake of the gospel. And who is willing to do that? Where are the men and women of courage that are willing to say, ‘Here I am, Lord, I'll put my life on the line'? Comfort will tell you there's always tomorrow. The Spirit will tell you the time is now. Which voice are you going to listen to?24:05 – Imagine that you continue your current patterns for the next five years—same prayers, same risks or lack thereof, same generosity, same evangelism. Basically, it's the status quo for the next five years, nonstop. Now compare that future, compare the future you, to the one who chooses one costly obedience a week for the next five years. Which life would you want to present to Jesus? What story would you want your kids to tell at your funeral? You got to realize comfort is killing your potential quietly. But the good news is that resurrection starts in tombs. If you've buried your gifts under the soil of safety, Jesus specializes in calling dead things to life. Roll the stone, step out and start breathing.Connect with Paul M. NeubergerWebsite

What does it mean to be faithful when your plans fall apart? Eleven years ago, Madison Church launched with meticulously researched strategies, countless prayers, and 200 empty chairs. Only 20 people showed up that first Sunday—half of them family members visiting from out of town. The humiliation was crushing, but looking back now reveals how God was writing a better story than anyone could have imagined.This anniversary reflection draws powerful parallels to Paul's experience in Athens, where he confronted a city so filled with idols that historians noted it was "easier to find a god than a person." While we don't have marble statues to Zeus or Athena in Madison, our modern idols are perhaps more dangerous because they're less visible. We worship comfort through convenience, achievement through success, busyness through hustle culture, and find our identity in politics and consumerism.The most concerning pattern emerges when we don't reject God for these idols but recruit God to serve them alongside us. We pray, but only so our lives become more comfortable. We worship, but only so God blesses our hustle. We've reduced the living God to a lowercase assistant for our agenda rather than the center of everything.Through examining the idols of security, worth, and control, we discover how these false gods promise peace but deliver anxiety, promise love but produce exhaustion, and promise order but result in frustration. The invitation stands today as it did for the early Christians who were radically called to forsake all other gods: Will we turn from our idols to serve the living God?The next chapter of Madison Church won't be built on comfort, busyness, politics, or spiritual highs, but on becoming a community where faith is not shallow but deeply rooted. What felt like failure then has become a testimony of God's faithfulness now—a story of changed lives, deep friendships, answered prayers, and hope rising in unexpected places.

Episode 133: When I say you can be happy without a baby, what happens in your body? It may seem like it's a piece of wisdom, a piece of advice because yes, of course we know that it's possible for women to live a joyful content life without children. However when you are struggling to conceive and someone you turn to for advice and support says this to you it can feel like they have absolutely no idea what's going on inside of you.In this episode, I break down why this common advice backfires, how it keeps you stuck, and why owning your desire for a baby isn't something you should try to minimise.If you're tired of being told to shrink your longing, this episode is your permission slip to feel, want, and be fully seen.Join my next free masterclass on Wednesday 24th of September.

Seven Weeks Of Comfort And The Sound Of The Shofar  Part 7:  The Different Sounds Of The Shofar  -  English only.  Why do we listen to different sounds from the shofar on Rosh HaShanah, the Feast of Trumpets? Is it just a tradition? You might be surprised by what the Scriptures reveal about these different sounds!  This is a rebroadcast of a podcast originally recorded September 4, 2021.  This year, Rosh HaShanah begins at sunset, Monday evening, on September 22, 2025.

This year marks twenty-four years since the events of September 11, 2001. In today's prayer and devotional, we remember that though decades have passed, the grief, memory, and impact of that day remain deeply etched in our hearts. Nearly everyone remembers where they were when tragedy struck, and as a nation — and as people created in God’s image — we carry both the sorrow and the call to remembrance. In today's devotional, Cally Logan leads us in five heartfelt prayers: for the families who lost loved ones, for the survivors, for the memory of the fallen, for our nation, and for peace in our world. These prayers not only honor those directly impacted but also point us to the God who keeps record of every tear and whose compassion is unending. As we pause today, let’s choose to remember — not only the events of that day but also the way God’s presence sustains us through grief and how His love compels us to seek peace with one another. Today's Bible Reading “Record my misery; list my tears on your scroll — are they not in your record?” – Psalm 56:8 Key Takeaways Families of the fallen still need our prayers for comfort and peace. Survivors carry both visible and invisible scars; we can pray for healing and strength. The memory of the lost — including first responders and ordinary citizens who acted heroically — deserves to be honored. Our nation needs God’s wisdom, unity, and revival to remain a “city on a hill.” Lasting peace in the world can only be found through Christ, who transforms hearts. Let’s Pray Together Heavenly Father, on this day of remembrance, we lift up families who lost loved ones, survivors who carry wounds, and our nation as it seeks unity. Comfort those who grieve, strengthen those who struggle, and help us honor the memory of the fallen. Lord, bring peace to our hearts and to our world. Let us never forget, and let us always turn to You as our hope and refuge. In Jesus’ name, Amen. Calls to Action Take a moment of silence today to pray for families affected by 9/11.
