O study thy misery till thy heart cry out for Christ as earnestly as ever a drowning man did for a boat, or the wounded for a surgeon. Men must come to see the danger and feel the smart of their deadly sores and sickness, or Christ will be to them a physician of no value. The manslayer hastens to the city of refuge, when pursued by the avenger of blood; but men must be even forced and driven out of themselves, or they will not come to Christ.

Speaker: Pastor N. Abraham Rose Title: The Damascus Road Showdown Summary: The dramatic conversion of Saul serves as a powerful testimony of what can happen whenever one encounters the resurrected Jesus. This encounter not only resulted in a name change, it also shifted the trajectory of Saul's life. Even though every believer may not have such a dramatic experience, any encounter with the resurrected Jesus will prove to be life altering.

Former NBA star Mike Newlin talks with Wayne Shepherd about his basketball career and his long commitment to his relationship with Jesus Christ. (click for more)Background & Basketball CareerMike Newlin was a standout NBA guard, scoring over 12,000 points.Drafted by the San Diego Rockets, who became the Houston Rockets one week later.Known for his discipline—trained 6–8 hours a day in high school.Believes time, not talent, is the key to success.Described his entrance into the NBA as the "easiest thing" he'd ever done because it was the logical result of consistent hard work.Conversion to ChristianityBecame a Christian at age 27, just before an NBA season.Was at the peak of his career, considered a top guard in the league.Transition was costly: after his conversion, a coach benched him for three years, claiming he didn't trust believers.Struggled emotionally and spiritually with the fallout—it took 40 years to fully process the pain of that loss.Spiritual Growth & Life After NBAStudied Bible doctrine daily for nearly 50 years.Learned Greek, Hebrew, and Latin; currently still in seminary.Sees life as preparation for the Judgment Seat of Christ.Believes salvation is by grace through faith alone, distinguishing it from his Catholic upbringing.Core BeliefsOne moment of faith—even the equivalent of a "quark" (billionth of a billionth of a grain of sand)—can determine one's eternal destiny.Feels called to write as a ministry using his background as a hook to reach others.Stresses the importance of nibbling at the Word of God daily.Encourages others to pursue God's plan actively: “Today is what matters.”Life LessonsSuffered in silence under benching but later wished he had confronted the situation more maturely.Believes God tests us in the area we care most about.Thinks Christianity shouldn't make us passive—he had to learn to balance faith and human relationship dynamics.Emphasizes personal study of Scripture over relying on others for spiritual growth.Send your support for FIRST PERSON to the Far East Broadcasting Company:FEBC National Processing Center Far East Broadcasting CompanyP.O.

If you can believe it, today, we are wrapping up season 8! Next week, you will hear a wrap-up episode from our hosts, Robyn, Katie, and Lindy, as they discuss all that God did throughout this past year and what is in store for Season 9, which will begin on September 3rd. Today, We have a repost from Lisa Fischer, who originally shared her story on September 11, 2024 (episode 285). Are you curious about your faith? Lisa, who shared at our Fairhope, Alabama community, will encourage you to ask all the questions. Listen as she shares a hard but happy retelling of finding the Lord—in none other than a college biology class. This story of curiosity and conversion starts with Lisa's Jewish beginnings, and includes a childhood touched by tremendous trauma: alcoholism, addiction, divorce, and loss. In her dysfunctional family and dysfunctional life, Lisa longed to be known. Yet when she met Jesus, she discovered her name was written in the Lamb's Book of Life, and being known by Him was all she needed. In this episode, you will learn: - God is always pursuing you and longs for you to have a relationship with Him. - You are intimately known by God. (Psalm 139) - As a child of God, your sin is on the cross and behind you, and there is nothing you can do to separate yourself from the love of Christ!

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by former Protestant pastor Keith Nester and author and speaker Devin Schadt to discuss the process of Catholic conversion from two sides of the same story.In a first for this podcast we unfold the narrative of a Catholic conversion–Keith's conversion, in this case–from two different perspectives; from the perspective of the Catholic loving and practising and sharing their faith, and from the side of the skeptical Protestant doing the exact same thing on the other end. You'll hear how these two friends journeyed together, how they used apologetics, how they argued and debated and nearly got arrested one time, but how the Holy Spirit ultimately used Devin's witness, and their friendship, to convince Keith of the truth of the ancient Catholic faith.It is an incredible story and a real privilege to share it with you.

"My lifetime's work could be gone". That's the message from the head green keeper of Takapuna's beloved golf course as the community tries to stop a big chunk of it being turned into a wetland. The council has proposed converting half the course into a flood storage and recreational area to avoid a repeat of the suffering caused by the 2023 Auckland anniversary floods. But those backing the alternative proposal are confident keeping the course at 18 holes while safeguarding against flood damage is not only possible, but a better option. Jessica Hopkins reports .
Need help choosing steps on the Clear Path of Discipleship that fit your community? Today, we dive into the heart of missionary transformation: the conversion moment. I sit down with my team to unpack why these moments matter—and how they're changing lives in real time. You'll hear unforgettable stories (like a bartender who became a parish secretary) and see how ministries like Alpha, ChristLife, and parish retreats are helping people truly encounter Jesus. But this isn't just about programs. It's about creating space for people to meet Jesus—and letting that encounter ripple out into the life of your parish. We talk about what's working, what's not, and how to choose a format that actually fits your community. We also get real about the challenges—and the surprising opportunities—of doing this in diverse or bilingual settings. If you're trying to figure out where to start, or wondering how to take your next step toward a more missionary parish, this episode is for you. Get ready to think big—and start small.

Make Sure the Convertible Note Has a Conversion Point Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Convertible notes are useful tools for fundraising. They are easy to set up and often don't require much legal work. The best part is they don't require a valuation to be set. Instead, a valuation cap is used to give assurance to the investor that the valuation will not be set at an unreasonable level. Most convertible notes convert on a subsequent round funded by equity. In the event there's no follow-on equity round, then the note should convert at the maturity date. This is most often at year 3 or 5 from the start date. One of the drawbacks of some convertible notes is that they don't set a maturity date. In reviewing a convertible note, make sure the note sets the maturity date and converts at that point. This ensures the investor receives the equity stake. For startups, this is also an important issue, in that the note left in debt form means the investor could demand their investment back with interest. Review your convertible notes for the conversion point. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _________________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: Check out our other podcasts here: For Investors check out: For Startups check out: For eGuides check out: For upcoming Events, check out For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group Please , share, and leave a review.

This conversation provides a comprehensive overview of intentional torts, focusing on the essential elements of various torts such as battery, assault, false imprisonment, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. It also explores property torts like trespass and conversion, and discusses critical defenses that can negate liability. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding intent, the nuances of each tort, and the implications for legal practice and exam preparation.TakeawaysIntent in tort law isn't always about malice or being evil.The intent required is simply the intent to enter, not to trespass.You must actually and reasonably believe that another person is imminently going to cause harm.The law strongly discourages self-help that could lead to violence over property disputes.Public necessity is a complete defense, while private necessity is not a complete defense.The defendant must pay for any actual damage caused during private necessity.The specific intent to permanently deprive is crucial for civil theft claims.These defenses can completely negate liability, even if every element of the tort is present.Understanding the nuances of consent and self-defense is vital for legal practice.Keep digging, keep learning, as the principles evolve with technology.intentional torts, tort law, battery, assault, false imprisonment, emotional distress, trespass, conversion, legal defenses, law school

In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, hosts Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dive deep into critical mindset, leadership, and business growth strategies for coaches aiming for six and seven-figure practices. They break down the psychology of self-sabotage, share frameworks to reprogram negative thinking, discuss the power of humility, and reveal why breaking complexity into "threes" is a game-changer in coaching and business leadership. The episode also offers tactical advice on creating effective demonstrations for client acquisition, maximizing wealth, and learning from industry giants like Elon Musk. Key Topics Covered Overcoming Self-Sabotage in Coaching Karl Bryan and Rode Dog outline a four-step mental pattern for self-sabotage, including how coaches attach setbacks to their identity and spiral into negative action. The solution: shift focus to learnings and gratitude, solidify a stronger self-identity, practice self-forgiveness, and set big, audacious goals to play bigger. The Power of the “Three Framework” The hosts explain why breaking concepts into sets of three—be it frameworks, leadership techniques, or messaging—enhances recall and action. Examples abound, from “lead gen, conversion, fulfillment” to Amazon's focus on “low prices, vast selection, fast delivery.” Zen and Humility in Business They discuss how humility is a superpower for entrepreneurs seeking long-term wealth and freedom—not just flashy material wins. Professionals focus on what could go wrong, guard their wealth, and aim for optionality, not just accumulation. Amateur vs. Pro Mindset Amateurs practice until they get it right; pros practice until they can't get it wrong. Thought patterns, decision-making, and actions must all level up for true mastery in business coaching. Leadership Through Threes CEO essentials: visual scoreboard, leverage, structure. Founders' three reflection questions: What don't I see? Where are my assumptions incorrect? What do I need to learn? Leadership in practice: Ask, listen, learn. Elon Musk and First Principles Thinking Break big problems into small parts and don't fear starting at the fundamental level—applicable for coaches needing to revamp their demo, offer, or client acquisition process. Vulnerability and Authenticity in Coaching Why trying to appear perfect hurts coaching conversions and authentic rapport; admitting flaws and sharing real stories is a conversion superpower. Notable Quotes “When you succeed, you party. When you fail, you ponder. There's a lot of money in pondering.” “You want your present to be better? You need to make your future bigger.” (attributed to Dan Sullivan) “Amateurs practice until they get it right, pros practice until they can't get it wrong.” “The person that comes across as too perfect… is the person that will screw you over 10x.” “Defense wins championships. Are you and your clients playing defense as well as offense?” Actionable Takeaways Rewire for Success: When facing setbacks, actively seek out lessons, practice gratitude, and attach positive, aspirational “I am” statements to your identity. Forgive yourself often and set bigger goals to avoid playing small. Harness the Power of Three: Break down complex strategies, presentations, or learning models into three key points for maximum retention and clarity. Examples: Lead Gen, Conversion, Fulfillment; Ask, Listen, Learn; Visual Scoreboard, Leverage, Structure. Practice Humility: Focus on optionality and long-term wealth, not just flashy success; stay humble, and aim to be trainable and open to learning like an investor rather than just a producer. Demonstrate Don't Explain: Develop and perfect a dynamic demonstration of your coaching value to secure clients—don't just rely on explanations. Prioritize Defense: Regularly assess risk, improve financial “defense,” and focus as much on wealth preservation as on new client acquisition. Embrace Vulnerability: Be authentic in your story and interactions—share failures as well as successes to build deeper client rapport and trust.

If you're creating hyper-specific content focused on direct selling and wondering why your posts aren't performing like they used to, you're probably skipping 2 crucial parts of your social media funnel. In today's episode, I'm breaking down something controversial: not every piece of content is meant to convert immediately! I know that sounds crazy when you're trying to grow your business, but hear me out. With how social media algorithms have evolved, the old strategy of making every post a direct pitch to your offer just isn't working anymore. I'm sharing my A-B-C framework for social funnels that's helped me build my seven-figure design agency. Most entrepreneurs are obsessing over the bottom of the funnel (conversion) while completely ignoring attraction and building content—which is why their audience isn't engaging and their sales calls aren't booking. You'll discover why your content needs to move people from audience member to follower to community member before they're ready to buy, how to create attraction content that's general enough to bring new people in but specific enough to stay relevant to your brand, and why the building phase is where most people confuse connection-building with direct selling. Plus, I'm revealing why I take most of my conversion content off social media entirely and into email sequences, private podcasts, and sales calls where people are actually ready to buy. In this episode, we're chatting about: • The A-B-C social funnel framework • Why direct selling content doesn't perform • The building phase mistake • Moving conversion off social media Connect with me: Website Join our email list!

A fierce defender of Calvinism, Pierce converted to the Catholic faith after a long and fascinating journey – including going head-to-head with Catholics in a group chat, fulling intending to convert them to Calvinism, but being challenged by their through and thoroughly biblical responses to many of his objections to Catholicism!This week, we talk about Pierce's evangelical upbringing, his shift to the serious and intellectual strand of Calvinism, and what eventually drew him into full communion with the Catholic Church – as a former anti-Catholic evangelist! Plus, we tackle objections like Mary, understanding the Early Church Fathers, and the amazing story of other converts Pierce has met along the way!For more from Pierce check out two of his other appearances on YouTube.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

Recently a professor at a Southern Baptist seminary converted to Anglicanism. When you examine it, his story challenges us to ask and answer several questions for ourselves.
AMDG. “It's almost as if I pity God because he has to choose between giving us more sufferings and making us sorrowful but wiser or giving us less sufferings and making us happier but more foolish.” Professor of Philosophy at Boston College and author of over 100 books Dr. Peter Kreeft shares his reflection on today's academic culture, emphasizing the importance of the Socratic method and a sturdy foundation in Thomistic philosophy. Dr. Kreeft dives deep into the themes of faith, happiness, and truth as he shares his conversion story, retold in his book From Calvinist to Catholic.

On today's show we are talking about the conversion of office space. The problem with most office buildings is that they are the wrong shape to build apartments. Many office buildings are square in shape and most apartment buildings are rectangular, or L shaped, or U shaped. Apartment buildings need lots of windows. Living rooms need windows and bedrooms need windows. Offices do benefit from natural light, but in truth, a sunny south facing window creates so much glare that it makes it impossible to read the screen on your desk. Windows remain covered for much of the day. We're going to be using a case study of an office building that is part of the Kanata Research Park. The building is part of a very large office park and is located next to a four star hotel that is also located within the office park. It's no surprise that office vacancy has hit this location, just as it has impacted many offices during the pandemic and the slow return to office trend since the pandemic. So the owner of the building made the decision to convert one of the half dozen buildings on this particular site to residential and move the remaining commercial tenants to other buildings within the same complex. -------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)
So I received word last week that Midwestern had not extended Barrett's contract, so he was leaving. Then it came out he was taking a position at an Anglican seminary, and finally, his own article explaining his reasons for converting to Anglicanism. So today we walked through the article in light of the fact that we have spoken often of the impact of the "Great Traditionists" and the fact that promoting such a perspective at a Baptist institution is inherently self-contradictory (and Barrett's conversion is actually proof of the correctness of our assertion).
