Jay Richards has made more appearances on Hank Unplugged than any other guest. As the longtime producer of the podcast, Dave Hanegraaff thought it would be fitting to have Jay be one of the first guests to join him on his new podcast, A Commitment to Reality.  In this preview from A Commitment to Reality, Jay and Dave explore the importance of listening to those we disagree with, how social media distorts our perception of reality, and why embodiment—simply going outside and being present—may be one of the most important disciplines we've forgotten.They also dive into the growing influence of artificial intelligence, why the debate over AI is ultimately a question of anthropology, and how our understanding of the human person will shape the future more than any technology.To hear the full conversation—including Jay's reflections on fasting, discipline, and practices that reconnect us to reality—search for A Commitment to Reality wherever you listen to podcasts and follow the show so you never miss an episode.You can also watch full episodes and clips on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@ACommitmenttoReality

Today, Heather Creekmore explores the concept of sustainability in our approach to weight loss, health, and spiritual growth. She unpacks how our cultural obsession with quick fixes and urgent physical transformation is often driven by fear, impatience, and even greed—rather than lasting, loving stewardship of our bodies. Heather Creekmore shares her own experiences with unsustainable health practices, lessons learned through her journey, and why so many common diet strategies fizzle out in the long run. She encourages listeners to shift focus toward habits that will support lifelong health—mentally, physically, and spiritually—rather than falling for every “latest trend” diet that comes along. Key topics in this episode: What does true sustainability look like in health and weight loss? Why rapid body change can often signal unsustainable and unhealthy patterns The dangers of fear, urgency, greed, and lust driving our self-care choices How to align your goals with patience, love, and long-term thinking Questions to ask yourself: Is this habit something I can keep up for life? How to invite God into your health and wellness decisions rather than just following the cultural noise Take the Next Step: Join the 40 Day Journey! Are you ready to rethink your approach and start building sustainable, God-honoring habits around your body image and health? Heather Creekmore is inviting you to join her 40 Day Journey beginning right after Easter in April! This journey dives deep into sustainable practices for your mind, body, and soul while helping you process body image from a biblical perspective.

Zach sits down with Hazel Grace and Nico for a wide-ranging conversation about polyamory, relational integrity, and what it actually takes to repair after conflict.Hazel Grace, a relationship coach and educator with a PhD in human sexuality, and Nico, a lumberjack and self-described relationship nerd, share how they've built a deeply intentional partnership within a polyamorous relationship structure. They unpack common misconceptions about polyamory—especially the idea that it's simply about sexual freedom—and explain how their approach is rooted in responsibility, communication, and care for the entire relational ecosystem.Zach asks about Hazel Grace's framework called The Art of Repair. Drawing from their own childhood experiences, decades of personal healing, and years of coaching couples, They outline a clear process for navigating relational ruptures and restoring trust.Through a real-life example involving a broken ankle and an emotional reaction that escalated quickly, Hazel Grace and Nico demonstrate how repair actually works in practice: pausing to regulate, developing empathy, seeking permission to talk, acknowledging what happened, naming the impact, and then rebuilding integrity.The conversation is a powerful reminder that conflict is inevitable in relationships—but repair is a skill anyone can learn.Key TakeawaysPolyamory isn't about unlimited freedom; it requires responsibility for the impact of your choicesRelationships don't come with fixed rules—you can design agreements that fit the people involvedMany people mistake “no conflict” for healthy relationships, but avoiding conflict can limit emotional intimacyRepair begins with regulation, not explanationEmpathy for both self and partner is essential before attempting repairAsking permission to have a repair conversation creates safety and consentUnderstanding each person's experience matters more than determining who was “right”Repair restores trust through acknowledgment, empathy, and concrete actionsGuest InfoHazel Grace, PhDHazel Grace is a relationship and intimacy coach specializing in relational healing, sexuality, and communication.

This episode features Alice Warren who is a retired middle school social studies and history teacher. In her retirement she finds herself very busy with a variety of community projects but she is deeply committed to helping immigrants and refugees with the citizenship and naturalization process. It started in 1998 when she assisted a school custodian with his preparation for the civics test. He passed - and she was hooked - thus adapting her curriculum to include giving the citizenship test to all of her students. In her current role, she works to empower adult learners in weekly classes with information about U.S. history, critical thinking about the constitution and various areas of the test, as well as extensive preparation for the oral interview with USCIS. She has fostered community partnerships with agencies who provide legal services to eligible green card holders and personally assists students with the various application components. Throughout her citizenship course she reminds students of the comprehensive documents that are mandatory to certify their work and immigration status, including tax returns, pay stubs, and marriage certificates. She personally drives many students to legal appointments and always celebrates when someone achieves naturalization. She is a true mentor handling each case with deep care, immense support, and confidentiality. She shares recent changes in the naturalization process including a long list of countries where immigrants and refugees now face enormous obstacles and delays when applying for citizenship. Additionally, she shares the frustration over the prolonged wait times for appointments and the difficulty in gaining general information with the many changes in USCIS policies.

There's always risk when you commit yourself to something. But there's no greater reward than when you open yourself up to the kind of community for which God has created you. Charles Tapp challenges you to take time to remove the walls that separate us and enter into each other's space as he concludes his series on Building Community, with his message "Commitment to Community."

Dr. Lisa Riegel joins Rob Ramseyer to translate neuroscience into practical coaching leadership. She explains why behavior is the intersection of biology and context, how athletes' (and coaches') perceptions are shaped unconsciously, and why teams under stress often lose access to their best decision-making. The conversation moves from brain science to culture-building: psychological safety, proactive leadership, conflict, and why compliance-based leadership produces short-term obedience but not long-term commitment. Lisa closes with actionable routines coaches can use with large rosters to build self-awareness, self-regulation, and trust.Key Topics CoveredNeurowell + leadership: Why real change “starts in the brain,” not in policies.Biology + context: How leaders shape the environment to reduce friction and increase performance.Safe, supportive, proactive culture: A framework for building teams that sustain pressure.Perception filters: Why athletes respond differently to the same coaching behavior.Stress states & performance: Calm → alert (good) → alarm (bad decisions).Team-wide strategies: How to teach self-awareness at scale without needing a massive staff.Psychological safety: Not softness—an engine for disagreement, learning, and resilience.Positivity as training: How routines that notice “good” can shift team worldview and cohesion.Compliance vs commitment: Why punishment-based leadership backfires and what to do instead.Rapid fire: Favorite book, definition of success, favorite podcast, and a daily joy practice.Practical Takeaways for Coaches1) Coach the brain, not just the behaviorAthletes' reactions are often driven by unconscious perception filters. If a player shuts down, it may not be “attitude”—it may be how your style is being associated with past experiences.2) Teach self-regulation like a skillLisa offers a simple framework coaches can run in groups: “Name it, Own it, Control it.”Name it: What do you look/feel like when you're losing control?Own it: What's underneath it—what fear is driving the reaction?Control it: What works for you in the moment (breathing, reset routine, self-talk, walk-away, etc.)?3) Build “safe, supportive, proactive” cultureSafe: Emotional + intellectual safety (including real uncertainty around AI and change).Supportive: Agency + autonomy with accountability.Proactive: Don't get mad at predictable barriers—plan for them.4) Normalize conflict and train resolutionPsychological safety includes how a team handles conflict without fear of getting crushed or ignored.5) Use simple routines to shift team mindsetLisa describes the power of building “positive noticing” into team life (e.g., “two good things” at dinner; appreciation loops in teams) so athletes begin scanning for what's working, not only what's wrong.6) Replace compliance with commitmentPunishment may create compliance, but coaches want buy-in. The better pattern: clarify the “why,” provide a replacement behavior, and reinforce progress with meaningful positive feedback.Memorable Lines / Concepts“Behavior is the intersection of our biology and our context.”“You can't be upset by predictable situations.”“Compliance isn't commitment.”“When the alarm system takes over, the thinking brain checks out.”Books Mentioned / RecommendedNeurowell — Dr. Lisa RiegelAspirations to Operations (includes the 8C Commitment Framework) — Dr. Lisa RiegelAvailable on Amazon.Connect with Dr. Lisa Riegel (lisariegel@epinstitute.net)Educational Partnerships Institute (Founder & CEO): www.epinstitute.net Books: Neurowell and Aspirations to Operations (Amazon)www.lisariegel.com

As a Christian single, do you suffer from insecurity in relationships? If you suffer insecurity in your Christian dating relationship (like I used to) you probably have inner voices spewing insecure thoughts  like these about your date: “This is too good to be true, she’s bound to break up with me.” “When she finds out what I’m really like she’s gonna reject me like the others did.” “I just know my date is cheating on me.” Navigating the intricate web […] The post Insecurity in Relationships-Christian Dating appeared first on Christian Singles Advice | Christian Dating Advice Tips.

Surrender | Commitment Sunday | All In In this episode, we explore what it means to surrender control and step fully into God's plan. Looking at Numbers 13 and 14, we see how fear can shape our decisions and how remembering God's faithfulness changes everything. This conversation will encourage you to trust God's provision, respond with courage, and choose obedience in moments that matter most. Key Insights: • Faith decisions often happen when fear is still present. Waiting for fear to disappear may keep you from moving forward. • Remembering God's past faithfulness builds confidence for present challenges. • Trusting God's provision requires releasing control and stepping into obedience. • Spiritual growth happens when we respond to God's calling rather than retreat from uncertainty. • Commitment to God's purposes positions us to impact future generations.

In 1519, Hernán Cortés landed in Mexico and promptly set fire to his own fleet. By any conventional measure of military logistics, this seems profoundly counterproductive. It wasn't. Matt Higgins — Shark Tank investor, Harvard Business School lecturer, and accidental dropout — has spent his career studying what happens when humans remove their own escape routes. Spoiler: it tends to go rather well, and there's solid science to explain why. A landmark Wharton study found that merely having a backup plan measurably reduces both your motivation and your likelihood of success. The safety net, it turns out, is cutting the tightrope.

A group of twenty-two Christian leaders traveled half a day to secretly meet and learn from a pastor who came from another country. If caught, the pastor would be deported, and the others would spend three years in prison. Eighteen of the twenty-two had already been imprisoned for their faith in Jesus. After the pastor handed out fifteen Bibles he’d brought with him, one woman gave hers to someone else. Like many others, she’d memorized chapters of Scripture so she would have its wisdom secured in her heart if she were to go to prison. She later asked the pastor to pray that their church would be free to gather just like his. Instead, marveling at how they sacrificed, suffered persecution, and risked imprisonment, he prayed that his church would be just like theirs. Believers around the world are persecuted for their faith in Christ, some more severely than others. And all believers can be tempted to cower when the stakes of living for Christ are raised. But the Holy Spirit enables us to use our God-given gifts with “power, love and self-discipline” (2 Timothy 1:7). God will help us share the gospel with boldness and compassion, wherever He leads. Because of all He did for us (vv. 9-10), we can embrace the sacrificial cost of commitment to Christ and preserve “sound teaching, with faith and love in Christ Jesus” (v. 13).

Send me a some feedback!In the final installment of the Unbreakable series, Mike and Angie reflect on what it really takes to build a resilient relationship over decades. Drawing from nearly 27 years together, they unpack the reality that strong partnerships are not built through perfection or compatibility, but through commitment, growth, and the willingness to weather every season together.This episode explores the powerful idea of living without an escape hatch—removing the mental back door that allows doubt and “what ifs” to sabotage a relationship. Through honest reflections on past chaos, personal healing, and the lessons learned along the way, Mike and Angie reveal why true partnership requires both people to keep both feet in—even when winter inevitably arrives.Key Takeaways1. 99% Commitment Equals 0% CommitmentIf there is still an escape hatch in the relationship, it changes the energy you bring to it. Full commitment means both feet are in.2. Relationships Move Through SeasonsEvery long relationship experiences summers and winters. The strength of the partnership is measured by the willingness to weather both.3. Your Partner Isn't Meant to Be EverythingHealthy relationships allow space for each partner to fulfill different needs through friendships, interests, and personal outlets.4. People Grow Through Messy ExperiencesThe lessons that ultimately help others are often born from lived struggle, not perfection.5. True Partnership Multiplies StrengthWhen both partners stay committed to growth, the relationship creates something bigger than either person alone.Notable Quotes• “Living with an escape hatch means you're never truly committed.”• “Ninety-nine percent commitment equals zero percent commitment.”• “There's no summer without winter.”• “The perfect match doesn't meet all your preferences—the perfect match helps you not need your preferences to be met.”• “We fail our way to success.

In this episode of Anything But Average, Brittany and Christina dive into a very real conversation about health, healing, and the wake-up calls our bodies sometimes give us. Brittany shares the unexpected experience of landing in the hospital for an emergency appendectomy, walking through the symptoms, the fast-moving hospital visit, surgery, and what recovery has actually looked like in the days following. From the anxiety of not knowing what was happening to realizing how incredible the human body truly is, this experience became a powerful reminder about paying attention to the signals our bodies send. Christina also opens up about her own health journey right now, including ongoing back issues, exploring peptides, and the work required to maintain strength, mobility, and resilience. Together they unpack: • What happens when your body forces you to slow down • The importance of acting quickly when something feels off • Recovery, patience, and giving your body the time it needs • Exploring new tools and therapies that support healing • Why health awareness and self-care should never be optional   This conversation is honest, reflective, and a reminder that even the strongest, most driven people still need to listen to their bodies.

Every relationship has a price tag. The question isn't whether you'll pay it. It's whether you'll pay it now or pay it later.In Week 4 of our Let's Talk... series, Pastor Grant gets real about what it actually costs to build relationships that last, and why so many of us are letting the most important connections in our lives slowly fade without even realizing it. From marriage to friendship to your walk with God, no relationship thrives without intentional investment.In this message, you'll discover the three costs every relationship requires:Time because proximity and presence aren't the same thing.Commitment because loyalty isn't a feeling or a post. It's a pattern of behavior proven by action, not words.Courage because faith without courage is really no faith at all.Whatever relationship in your life feels distant right now, this message is for you.

In this episode, I'm sharing the real reason I traveled to Tanzania and trekked to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro - the roof of Africa.This wasn't a fitness goal. It wasn't a bucket-list flex. It was a spiritual pilgrimage rooted in a story that began decades ago, back when my identity was water polo and I wore “U.S. youth team” and “junior national team” like a second skin. There was another athlete from Oregon on those teams - Jeff. We trained together, competed internationally together, and even became rivals during high school season. That kind of brotherhood doesn't disappear.After college, Jeff chose to travel. He was offered the chance to summit Kilimanjaro. On the way to the gates, the bus taking the group went over a cliff and everyone died. Jeff never even reached the mountain. When I heard the news, something locked in: one day, I would climb that mountain.Life moved forward. Military. Fitness. Building businesses. Years went by. And then, twenty-five years later, while volunteering in hospice with terminally ill patients, one woman - lucid in her final days - looked at me and said, “Jeff came to see me.” Then she delivered the message that hit like lightning: “It's time for you to summit the mountain.” When she said “Kilimanjaro,” I knew the time had arrived.So once Tribe Class 003 completed in December 2025, I began planning. In late January I flew to Tanzania, adjusted to the jet lag, and started the trek. And before I tell you anything else, I want to honor the people who made it possible: for 12 clients, it took 42 porters, guides, chefs, and staff carrying tents, food, tables, chairs, toilets - building camp, breaking camp, and running past us every single day to set everything up again. Respect. Gratitude. Always.Twelve of us began. Three of us reached the summit. One man had to be airlifted out. Another suffered such severe altitude sickness he forgot who he was for 36 hours.The mountain was both hard and easy.Hard because of environment: exposure to sun, temperature regulation, dehydration risk, dust and shale that make each step slide backward. Easy because of mind: I didn't train for this trek. I bought my boots days before leaving. No altitude acclimation. No prep hikes. What I did have was commitment. Single-mindedness. There was no story in my mind where I didn't summit.While others distracted themselves with constant talking and data - filling space to escape discomfort - I returned to one thing: attention. I repeated a mantra thousands of times.That mantra became my mind's projection: love, compassion, selflessness - instead of pain, suffering, and resistance.And this is the lesson I'm offering you:Your life is like a dream. The mind projects the images, but consciousness guides the dream through attention. Put your attention on fear, and you live a nightmare. Put your attention on presence, and you live in peace.Commitment is not attachment to an outcome.Commitment is devotion to the moment that leads to the outcome.Every outcome is a succession of moments.Every summit is a succession of steps.So take one step at a time - fully - without distraction.There is only the Self.
