There’s a unique ache that comes from feeling noticed but not truly known. In today’s devotional, the author shares a deeply personal experience of sitting in a separate family worship room at church with her special needs daughter—a space designed for accommodation, but one that often carried the weight of isolation. While people were kind, the deeper sense of being seen, understood, and included still felt out of reach. In that quiet separation, she wrestled with what many of us face in different forms: the longing to belong and to be genuinely known. But what she discovered in that room was this—God met her faithfully. Even when the larger community didn’t fully understand her experience, God’s presence was steady and personal. And that’s where Isaiah 49:16 becomes more than a comforting verse; it becomes a lifeline. God doesn’t merely notice His people from a distance. He has engraved them on the palms of His hands—permanently, intentionally, and intimately. That means your name, your story, your struggles, and your unique life are never out of His sight. The devotional also emphasizes the powerful truth that only God can fill the “God-sized” longing in our hearts—the need to be fully known and deeply loved. People may see the surface. They may overlook the quiet battles you fight or misunderstand your situation. But God sees the whole picture, and He never looks away. Even when your world feels chaotic, unfamiliar, or lonely, you are not invisible to Him. You are known, remembered, and held close—always. Main Takeaways Being noticed isn’t the same as being truly known—and God knows you completely. God’s love is personal and permanent; you are “engraved” on His hands. Your story, struggles, and needs are always before God—He never looks away. The longing to be deeply understood can only be fully satisfied by your Creator. Even when people don’t “get it,” God’s presence remains faithful and near. Today’s Bible Verse: Isaiah 49:16 Your Daily Prayer Here is a brief excerpt from today’s prayer: “When I feel unknown or misunderstood by the people around me, remind me that You see me completely and love me perfectly.” You can read the full prayer and devotional at the links below.

Share a commentThe air smells like smoke and rumor, and the faithful are bracing for a storm. Against that backdrop, we follow Peter's unvarnished journey—sharp insight, spectacular missteps, a rooster's indictment, an empty tomb's quiet proof, and a bold voice that helped launch the church. This is not a highlight reel; it's a field guide for people who have promised too much, failed too fast, and still ache to be useful.We start with Peter's confession—“You are the Christ”—and the whiplash turn to presumption as he tries to correct Jesus. Then we sit with the ache of his denials and the shock of the resurrection details John preserves: linen left in its form, a face cloth folded as a royal signal of return. The angel's words land like grace with a name tag: “Tell the disciples and Peter.” From there, Pentecost breaks open. Peter's courage replaces bluster, his message names Jesus as both Lord and Christ, and thousands respond. The journey arcs forward to an older Peter who writes about prayer that doesn't always prevent failure, humility that replaces swagger, and sober-minded calm that steadies a panicked church.We connect Peter's lessons to our moment: how to hold mission when culture feels hostile, why the church does not need applause or power to be fruitful, and how to exercise rights without making them our refuge. We talk about leaders better than a nation deserves, worse than it merits, and exactly what it has become—and why none of that cancels the call to plant seeds of the gospel. Through it all, one theme threads every scene: entrust your life to a faithful Creator who always does what is right.

In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog kick off the new year by diving deep into the psychology of compounding success, handling client loss, building an irresistible brand, and the surprising power of stopping your worst habits before adding new ones. Packed with frameworks, mindsets, and strategies for scaling coaching businesses, this conversation sets a foundation for meaningful, profitable growth in 2026 and beyond. Key Topics Covered The Psychology of Compounding Karl Bryan explains how real progress in both business and personal growth follows a compounding curve—boring and slow for most of the journey, before results skyrocket. He compares doubling a penny every day to the patient grind of building new habits, networking, and acquiring skills. Managing Client Loss & Turning Pain into Fuel Drawing from personal experience, Karl reframes lost clients as vital awakenings for a coach's development, not failures. He likens the evolution to relationships, urging coaches to "build into someone no client would want to leave," reject desperation, and approach setbacks as chances to upgrade purpose and mastery. Status, Energy, and Luxury Branding in Coaching Karl discusses how "vibe" and energy—like a seasoned waiter in a top restaurant—create attraction and authority in client relationships. Coaches who hold themselves with confidence (not arrogance) and employ purposeful energy are respected, sought after, and able to retain clients long-term. Exclusivity, Scarcity & Storytelling Luxury brands like Gucci and Ferrari don't just charge more—they mean more. Karl reveals how controlled scarcity, storytelling, and identity shift the coaching value proposition from transactional to transformational. Rather than being "liked by everyone," coaches and clients win by being respected and building a brand people want to join. Zen Master Insights for Happiness & Productivity Karl shares Arthur Brooks' 4 rules for happiness and adds his own: "learning." He warns about the "death loop" of social media comparison, the dangers of technical work without meaning, and the need for deeper faith, family, genuine friendships, and personal growth. The Power of Eliminating Worst Habits First Instead of piling on new habits, Karl encourages coaches to ruthlessly cut out the most sabotaging activities—doom scrolling, excessive TV, video games, etc.—and channel freed-up energy into productive tasks. Focus is achieved more through removing distractions than forcing attention. Notable Quotes "The problem with compounding is it's not till day 25 that there's any excitement. The numbers are tiny and lame till everything takes off." "[When you lose a client], it's not the time to cry in your Cheerios—It's an awakening more than anything else." "Neediness is your enemy. Walk in like you own the place, not like you want to buy it." "Luxury branding isn't about charging more—it's about meaning more." "Focus is eliminating distractions more than it is focusing. No is a decision, yes is a responsibility." "Comparison is the thief of joy. Social media... is a death loop for happiness." Actionable Takeaways Play the Long Game With Compounding: Stick with new disciplines far past the "boring" stage; results will spike after consistency and patience. Transform Setbacks Into Upgrades: When clients leave, treat it as a wake-up call to elevate skills, boundaries, and purpose—don't focus on loss, focus on mastery. Embodied Confidence Wins Clients: Present yourself with purposeful energy and professional vibe—confidence, not arrogance, is magnetic to prospects. Engineer Scarcity & Story: Position your coaching as exclusive; tell a bigger brand story that clients aspire to join. Scarcity creates clarity and demand. Eliminate (Not Add) For Focus: List your worst habits and cut one immediately. Use freed-up time for learning, networking, or strategic work. Protect Your Mindset: Consciously avoid social media comparison and schedule time for real relationships, faith, and continual self-education.

What does it really mean when someone looks at your career and says, “You should be doing more”?In this episode of ComicLab, Brad and Dave respond to a pointed listener question that cuts straight to the bone: If they have the skills, the experience, and the ideas — why haven't they launched even more projects? The answer isn't defensive or dismissive. Instead, it becomes a clear-eyed breakdown of creative bandwidth, sustainability, work-life balance, and the invisible labor that propels up a long-term comics career. From Patreon and newsletters to storefronts, commissions, podcasts, and family responsibilities, they unpack why “doing enough” is often misunderstood from the outside — and why restraint can be a strategic choice, not a lack of ambition.The conversation then pivots to one of the trickiest problems any humor writer faces: How to judge your own work when readers don't get the joke. How many confused comments are just statistical noise—and when do they signal a real problem in execution? Brad and Dave dig into the uncomfortable middle ground between ego and humility, exploring how to listen to feedback without letting it derail your voice, and how to improve clarity without sanding off what makes your work distinctive. It's a nuanced, experience-earned discussion about ramps, chasms, audience expectations, and why “it happens to everyone” is not an excuse — but also not a death sentence.If you've ever felt pressure to produce more, or struggled to decide whether reader confusion is a warning sign or just the cost of taking creative risks, this episode offers hard-earned perspective from two cartoonists who've been navigating those exact questions for decades.TakeawaysCreative projects often take a backseat due to time constraints.Cartoonists manage a heavy workload that includes multiple projects.Balancing creativity with administrative tasks is crucial for success.Feedback from readers can help improve comic writing.Self-editing is a continuous process for comic creators.Reader confusion can indicate a need for better communication in comics.Communication is key in the artistic process.     You get great rewards when you join the ComicLab Community on Patreon$2 — Early access to episodes$5 — Submit a question for possible use on the show AND get the exclusive ProTips podcast.

God Will Pause to Save You by Autumn Dickson I got a little lost as I was reading in Abraham at 6:00 am after staying up too late reading a book. Abraham had received a vision that showed him the workmanship of the Lord's hands. He discerned a whole lot, and then the Lord started explaining some deeper things to him. I was pretty tired, and my mind drifted until I came across this verse. Abraham 3:20 The Lord thy God sent his angel to deliver thee from the hands of the priest of Elkenah. Everything was feeling a tad confusing to my tired mind until I read that verse. Interestingly enough, as I backed up and read previous verses and when I continued reading forward, verse 20 felt like an interruption. The Lord is speaking of intelligences, including His own. He is speaking of how He dwelt in the midst of them and so on and so forth. The chapter is showing His absolute majesty. But He pauses and recalls how He saved Abraham's mortal life from a priest who was trying to sacrifice him. It felt like one of the most relevant interruptions I had ever read. It felt perfectly inserted into a sermon of how Christ rules over all of His creations. Christ is powerful and wise and loving. He is the Creator and King. He has many important works that He is juggling, but He pauses long enough to save you. Saving you from a mere mortal trial is nothing and everything to Him. It is nothing in relation to His power, and it is everything in relation to His love. I want to share a story about how the Lord saved my family. Honestly, I'm not even sure the extent to which it has saved my family yet, but I feel strongly that one day I will understand just what the Lord did for us in moving us across the country. Despite all the other works that the Lord was juggling, I watched Him masterfully manipulate detail after detail after detail to put Conner on track for his life's work. I will share some details, but I don't even think I'm fully aware of all the details and timelines that the Lord set in motion to take care of us. I probably don't remember all of the details, but I will tell you of a few. Conner had told me for years that we would never leave Utah, but there had always been a nagging feeling in my heart that we would leave. I had prayed about it, and the Lord kept telling me not to worry about it. The time would come when it came, so I left it alone. Though it was likely one of the more traumatic eras of my husband's life, I felt the Lord's hand hovering over us the entire time. Moving to Virginia the first time around was wild. My husband's job had been taken away from him through a series of lies told by another person. Looking back, I am 99% certain my husband would have never left. It had to be taken away from him in order to propel him in the correct direction for his life. I praise the Lord for taking it away. That's detail number one. Conner was meant to end up out in Virginia, and so the Lord sent a friend to ask for his help. That was detail number two. The only reason I was able to get Conner out of our house and into the car was because it was a friend who had asked him to come. We lived in a hotel for three months with three kids before moving to an apartment of a friend who had moved out west. We stayed in that apartment for two months before we received a big enough miracle that even my husband couldn't ignore (he still wanted to go back to Utah). We were staying in that apartment and the contract was running out soon. We could renew it, but the price would go up to more than we could really afford (especially since the job we had moved out for wasn't working out as we hoped). I was at church one day when that lady I ministered to asked me if we had found a place to stay yet. I answered no. Now let me tell you this portion of the timeline backwards. Monday, the very next day, was when we really decided that this job was not working out with our friend. I know Conner, and I know that the moment we realized it wasn't working out, we were headed back to Utah. It was much cheaper to go back, and we had just spent inordinate amounts of money to go and stay in Virginia and it just wasn't doable anymore especially since we were leaving the job. I wouldn't have been surprised at all if we had packed up that day and drove back immediately. However, the night before this final decision about the job was made, we received a message from a lady who had been sitting next to my ministering assignment when my ministering assignment had asked me if we had somewhere to live. This lady was a stranger at the time, and I'm going to name her Jill so that we can follow the story more easily. It turns out that Jill and her family had just bought a house even though they were headed overseas for ten months. She had a friend who was supposed to live in her house while they were gone, but that fell through. So Jill looked me up since they needed someone to come and stay in their house. As it turns out, we were related distantly through marriage. After asking some questions to our mutual relatives, she messaged us the night before we would have made the decision to head back to Utah. She sent us messages about the house and immediately, Conner and I realized we wouldn't be able to afford it. We asked how much she would charge us, and it was miraculously lower than what we would spend living in Utah. That was the very first time that Conner was like, “Maybe we are supposed to be in Virginia.” We moved in almost immediately. Conner was led to a couple of other jobs that were so healthy for him and have enabled us to be exactly where we need. When we needed to come back to Utah temporarily, we found a flight pass that enabled Conner to go back and forth across the country for $25. Detail after detail after detail after detail has lined up perfectly for us to be exactly where we need. I have no idea how He set things in motion a long time ago to set these things up for us. But I do know this. In the midst of all His incredible works, He paused long enough to save my family. I know that it was both nothing and everything to Him; it was nothing in relation to His power, and it was everything in relation to His love. I was not saved from a priest who was trying to kill me like Abraham was. I don't know how many of us will face situations like that. However, the Lord can save us. Whatever you're going through, it's nothing in relation to His power, and it was everything in relation to His love. I promise you that whatever you're facing, you are safe. When placed in the context of eternity, you are safe and everything will turn out better than you can imagine. He has handled much larger things than this, and they were likewise easy for Him to handle. I testify of the power of our Lord. I testify of the love of our Lord. I testify that whatever you're going through is just a blip on the spectrum of eternity. Reading Moses and Abraham gives us a glimpse into the eternal and can help us recognize that what we're going through doesn't have to take us down completely. I testify that it's okay for things to be hard, but I also testify that nothing can defeat us if we keep close to the Lord. Autumn Dickson was born and raised in a small town in Texas.

The opening verses of the Bible lay forth the reality that the one true God is the Creator of all creation. Seen through the full revelation of the Holy Scriptures, these verses reveal the true God to be the Triune God. His Word does what He says as He creates light and darkness on the first day, which the context indicates to be a normal, twenty-four hour period of evening and morning. God sees that His creation is good; everything is just as He intends.  Rev. Peter Ill, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Millstadt, IL, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Genesis 1:1-5.  To learn more about Trinity in Millstadt, visit trinitymillstadt.org. “In the Beginning” is a series on Sharper Iron that studies Genesis. The first book of Moses sets the stage for God's entire story of salvation. As we learn the beginning of the story, God prepares us to receive the fulfillment of the story: Jesus Christ, the Offspring of the woman who has crushed our enemy's head.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

We recorded this episode from Big Sky, Montana at the annual Spotter Creator Summit - four days with some of the top creators in the world talking about where this industry is actually headed. And one idea kept coming up over and over again: We've officially entered the era of abundance. There is more good content, more creators, and more competition for attention than ever before. Streamers are courting creators. AI is accelerating production. And brands have more options than they know what to do with. So the real question going into 2026 isn't “How do I grow?” It's: How do I become memorable? In this episode, we break down what we're hearing directly from creators, platforms, and brands—including insights from Issa Rae, conversations happening inside the summit, and Adam Mosseri's New Year's post about authenticity and AI. We talk about: Why “just making good videos” isn't enough anymore How creators need to start telling the story of the story What's changing in brand deals (and why short-form and long-form are diverging) Why streamers are suddenly paying closer attention to creators How AI changes the meaning of authenticity And what it takes to make something that can't be summarized This episode is about the next phase of the creator economy—and the shift from chasing views to building something people actually remember.

Nike says this new "brain-first" shoe can unlock focus and performance but does the science hold up, or is it just brilliant marketing?   In this episode of the The MOVEMENT Movement, Steven Sashen speaks with Courtney Conley, Jay Dicharry, Dr. Irene Davis, and Dr. Emily Splichal who break down Nike's new sensory-focused shoe and the bold claims behind its "mind tech," from two-point discrimination to "amplifying" what your feet feel. The conversation challenges whether thick cushioning and widely spaced pods can truly enhance sensory input — and why novelty and instability can be mistaken for real performance gains. You'll also hear the bigger takeaway: how to think about foot strength, sensation, and movement so you're not buying a shortcut that quietly makes you weaker.   Key Takeaways: → How Nike's two-point discrimination explanation doesn't match the large, spaced pods on the shoes. → How Nike's design appears to ignore the toes, which is a major sensory area. → Why the thick, soft cushioning may mute sensation, contradicting Nike's claim. → Why claiming a shoe has both barefoot benefits and more protection is misleading. → How Nike's creation of a "minimalist shoe" sparks mainstream awareness of foot sensory science and education.   Courtney Conley is a chiropractic physician specializing in foot and gait mechanics. She holds a B.A. in Kinesiology from the University of Maryland, as well as a B.A. in Human Biology in addition to a Doctorate in Chiropractic Medicine from the National University of Health Sciences. Jay Dicharry is one of America's leading physical therapists and a board-certified Sports Clinical Specialist. Dicharry's REP Lab is a national destination for elite athletes because he diagnoses and rebuilds injured endurance athletes.

You can't understand any story without understanding its beginning, and so you can't understand the Bible without understanding Genesis. The LORD sets the tone for all of history in the first book of Moses. As the only God, He is the Creator and Sustainer of all things. When humanity brings sin and death into His good creation, God does not leave His creation without hope, but He promises that the Offspring of the woman will come as the Wounded Victor. The cycle of sin, judgment, and grace that repeats throughout the book of Genesis propels the narrative forward toward the coming of Jesus.  Rev. Dr. Reed Lessing serves at Concordia University in St. Paul, MN as professor of theology, the Director of the Center for Biblical Studies, and the Director of the Pre-Seminary Program. He also serves as associate pastor at Cross View Lutheran Church in Edina, MN. He joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to introduce the book of Genesis.    “In the Beginning” is a series on Sharper Iron that studies Genesis. The first book of Moses sets the stage for God's entire story of salvation. As we learn the beginning of the story, God prepares us to receive the fulfillment of the story: Jesus Christ, the Offspring of the woman who has crushed our enemy's head.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev.

Today's reading is a summation of what we have learned so far. Man is made for God, and we are born with a capacity for knowing God. Using our senses, listening to our consciences, and employing our gift of reason, we can know with certainty that God exists. Fr. Mike explains how we live freely only in communion with our Creator, even if we are limited in our capacity of comprehension. Knowing this compels us to share our faith in God with those who do not yet believe. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 44-49. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

A piece of metal lands on a physicist's desk. The claim? It was recovered from a UFO crash site. Most scientists would laugh it off, but Dr. Matthew Szydagis takes it to his lab and fires up the spectrometer. Matthew is a unicorn in this space, a Christian experimental physicist who explores dark matter by day and tests alleged extraterrestrial materials on the side. He's worked with Nimitz witness Gary Voorhis, appeared on UFO documentaries, and catches flak from both atheist colleagues who mock his faith and Christians who think he's chasing demons. He doesn't care. His mission is simple: gather physical evidence, test it rigorously, and follow the truth wherever it leads. Here's what stopped us in our tracks. Matthew has watched multiple people convert to Christianity through UFO research, not because they decided the phenomenon was demonic, but because they came to believe in a Creator who filled the cosmos with physical beings. If Satan is orchestrating a grand deception, that's a spectacular failure. We get into why the "it's all demons" framework can't account for radar signatures and isotopic evidence, why the "vast distances make travel impossible" argument collapses under basic relativity, and why early church fathers like Augustine had zero problem with extraterrestrial life. Matthew also drops his controversial take on Bob Lazar and offers a wild hypothesis about why aliens might be staying silent. This is a physicist who believes in dark matter and the resurrection, and he's not apologizing for either. Buckle up, this conversation will stretch your categories and remind you that truth, both scientific and theological, is bigger than our comfort zones.

What Most Creators Get Wrong During a Crisis (And How to Do Better) Hey fam we are back! First of all, Happy New Year! I hope you had a great time with family, friends, and maybe some good fireworks like we did. But today… we're diving into something a little deeper. Something happened this weekend... something big... especially for us, our family, and millions of people from my home country, Venezuela. I won't get into all the details here (you can go look it up if you want)... but what really got me thinking wasn't just what happened... it was how people reacted online. The comments. The posts. The anger. The confusion. And yes... even from creators we respect. So in this episode, I'm asking 5 important questions we all need to think about before hitting publish. Especially when things get tense. I'm not here to tell you what to say. I'm not here to talk politics. I just want to share what helped me reflect before we wrote this epside... and maybe help you do the same. You don't have to agree with everything. You just have to be willing to a few things before you post. Let's talk about it. Chapters: 00:00 – Intro: Why This Episode Matters Now 01:38 – The Triggering Event & Personal Backstory 02:30 – Q1: Why Am I Sharing This? 05:32 – Q2: Am I Informed Enough to Speak on This? 09:40 – Q3: How Could This Message Be Interpreted by Someone Who Disagrees? 14:55 – Q4: Is This Adding to the Noise or Adding Value? 16:50 – Q5: Am I Being Authentic or Just Reactive? 19:48 – Final Reflections: Less Noise, More Clarity 22:01 – A Personal Message About Freedom & Responsibility

While the origins debate is basically a religious debate, many people have been taught that evolution is science and creation is religion. But even according to the evolutionists' own rules of science, evolution is not good science. Let's examine the claims of evolution in light of what science knows today.Life has never been seen to develop from nonliving materials. Yet evolution says it did. Mutations, said by evolutionists to have created all the kinds of living things, have never been seen to produce one creature who was more complex or better able to survive. Then again, the moon has moonquakes, a magnetic field and internal heat—all indications that it is far younger than evolutionists believe. The Cretaceous limestone was produced from sediment in water and extends in one continuous band from Northern Ireland through Europe and Asia to Australia. This suggests that the entire area was beneath the sea all at the same time, yet evolution refuses to accept Noah's Flood as a global and historical event.If language evolved, why are the most ancient languages the most complex? If religion evolved, why do the most ancient forms of religion worship one God, a Creator, while later forms of the same religions have many gods—who are much more like human beings?I could list many more examples showing that only the Bible's account of history makes sense in light of what we know today.Psalms 111:10"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all those who do His commandments. His praise endures forever."Prayer: Dear Lord; the very stones cry out that You are indeed Creator and Almighty God. Help me to add my voice to this witness, and tell others of Your forgiving love in Jesus Christ. In His Name. AmenREF.: Brown, Walter T. The scientific case for creation: 116 categories of evidence.

He grew up in Barbados and moved to the United States of America as a young adult. Neville Goddard was perhaps the last century's most intellectually substantive and charismatic purveyor of the philosophy generally called New Thought. He wrote more than ten books under the solitary pen name Neville, and was a popular speaker on metaphysical themes from the late 1930s until his death in 1972.Possessed of a self-educated and uncommonly sharp intellect, Neville espoused a spiritual vision that was bold and total: Everything you see and experience, including other people, is the result of your own thoughts and emotional states. Each of us dreams into existence an infinitude of realities and outcomes. When you realize this, Neville taught, you will discover yourself to be a slumbering branch of the Creator clothed in human form, and at the helm of limitless possibilities.Neville's thought system influenced a wide range of spiritual thinkers and writers, from bestselling author Dr. Joseph Murphy to Rhonda Byrne and Wayne Dyer.He has inspired and continues to inspire millions of readers around the world.* * *SOCIALS:• Neville Goddard Newsletter• Neville Goddard Telegram• Neville Goddard Instagram• Neville Goddard Threads• Neville Goddard Twitter• Neville Goddard YouTube* * *ABOUT THE COURSEUnlock God Mode is a transformative 30-day course designed to accelerate your journey towards greater wealth, love, and success through a deeper understanding and manipulation of your reality.  Comprising of 30 audio lessons, this course unfolds as a self-paced, introspective expedition into reality creation, aiding you in elevating your consciousness to what's referred to as the God Mode. Throughout this journey, practical tools will be provided daily to help enrich your life with more love, money, and success by altering your mental models and perceptions. This course combines theory and hands-on experience to create a unique deep dive into manifestation, consciousness, and reality creation.

Have you ever wondered why God would drag mountains and the foundations of the earth into court as witnesses against His own people? Today, Pastor Ken opens Micah and shows you the heartbreak behind the indictment. The Creator stands up, calls the unchanging rocks to listen, and asks Israel, “My people, what did I ever do to wear you out?” After every miracle, every mercy, they still walked away like He was the problem. He's wounded because the ones He carried still refuse to follow His instruction.

This week, Pastor Jeff reminds us through our Faith Question and Truth Bomb that we were created to worship God. Romans 1:25  "They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen."

Pastor Jared Richard began 2026 with a new sermon series on Genesis, starting with Genesis 1:1–5 and 1:26-31. He set the context by imagining the Israelites in the wilderness after the Exodus, questioning who this God was who had rescued them from Egypt. Richard argued that Genesis 1 was written primarily to answer “who” questions about God rather than “how” questions about the mechanics of creation, though he acknowledged that those questions still have importance. The pastor identified four key attributes of God revealed in Genesis 1. First, God is eternal. He has no beginning and exists before all creation. Second, God is singular. He is one God with no equals or competitors, though Richard noted the early hints of the Trinity in the text. Third, God is Creator who made everything powerfully by speaking, purposefully with intentional design, and personally with intimate involvement in the process. Fourth, God is good. He makes good things, enjoys His creation, and invites us to share in that enjoyment. Richard emphasized that understanding these attributes of God helps believers rest in His faithfulness and promises, knowing that nothing can stop His plans for salvation and new creation.   WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!

  In my conversation, with Heath Hardesty, pastor, and author of All Things Together:How Apprenticeship to Jesus Is the Way of Flourishing in a Fragmented World. Heath explores the profound effects of sin on humanity, emphasizing how it dehumanizes individuals and obscures the beauty of the world. He discusses the importance of being in a relationship with the Creator to process grief and cultivate gratitude, which are essential for true joy. We talk about how fiction informs reality and how stories help us better understand the world. Heath is able to show through his new book, how apprenticeship is the way we are formed. Takeaways Sin compresses us and desaturates the beauty from the world. We become wonder blind due to sin. Healthy processing of grief is possible when our heart is aligned with God. Lamenting can be a healthy expression of grief. Offering our grief to God allows for redemption and transformation. Gratitude is essential for experiencing true joy. A relationship with the Creator is fundamental for healing. Without gratitude, joy cannot exist in the human soul. The great Giver provides us with reasons to be thankful. Healing comes through connection with God.  

Command & Control oder Target & Track prägen Führungskultur und Teamdynamik weit über klassische Hierarchien hinaus. Judith Andresen zeigt, wie beide Ansätze in Organisationen wirken: Der präzise Rahmen von Command & Control gibt Sicherheit und Tempo, entzieht aber schnell Motivation, wenn Kontrolle zu Dominanz wird. Target & Track eröffnet dagegen Räume für Selbstorganisation, fordert aber Entscheidungen ein, die viele erst lernen müssen. Führung bleibt ein Balanceakt zwischen Klarheit, Vertrauen und der Bereitschaft, Verantwortung zu teilen. Du erfährst... …wie sich Command & Control und Target & Track in der Führung unterscheiden. …welche Gefahren und Chancen beide Führungsstile bieten. …wie situatives Führen Organisationen flexibler und effizienter macht. __________________________ ||||| PERSONEN |||||

What can we know about God? The Catechism tells us three important things: 1) We can know God with our human reason, but 2) that knowledge will always be limited, and 3) we rely on God to reveal himself to us. Fr. Mike warns us that learning who God is requires self-surrender and abnegation, for the human heart struggles to recognize the infinite gap between Creator and created. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 36-43. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

852 · The State of the Disney Parks: What 2025 Changed and Why 2026 MattersIf you had to describe Disney in 2025 and what it means for 2026, what word would you choose?2025 wasn't a year defined by massive new attractions. Instead, it was a year of movement, transition, and emotional goodbyes. Lands closed. Atmospheres shifted. Comfort gave way to construction. And for many fans, it felt like Disney was asking us to trust what comes next.This is not simply another 2025 Disney year in revue and look ahead to or predictions for 2026. This week, we have a very honest, thoughtful conversation about Disney in 2025 and what it means for 2026. We look at what closed, what opened, what surprised us emotionally, and why this year may end up being one of the most important setup years in Disney history. We also explore what Disney needs to deliver in 2026 to make all of this feel worth it.Join the conversation, share your memories, and be part of the WDW Radio community.

Humans were built for language and communication. It's one of the bits of creative genius God used when He formed His highest creation. And apart from regular communication, whether it's the written word or verbal, we have a great gift from a loving God: prayer.Prayer is an intensely personal way to communicate with our Creator, the One who knows everything about us.Jeremiah 29:12 says, “Then you will call on Me and come and pray to Me and I will listen to you.”All through scripture, we see that God is available to us all the time. No regular hours or standing meetings. We can talk to Him anytime we want. There are 650 recorded prayers in the Bible, and we read about people praying while sitting, standing, kneeling, with faces to the ground or hands lifted up.By the way, amen means “let it be,” or “so be it.”The word appears for the first time in Numbers 5:22.Since prayer is human communication with God, we see that the first prayers were way back in Genesis 3 and 4 when Adam and Eve, and later Cain, talked with God. In the second exchange, even though Cain was angry and had just killed his brother, he was having a conversation with God.Jesus famously modeled prayer in Luke 11, and notice that He was talking to God the Father.It can be a fine line when thinking about how prayer is initiated. Often, thoughts come to our minds, or we're reminded to pray for someone. However, there's an indication that God prompts us to talk with Him.Galatians 4:6, that from our hearts we cry out, “Abba Father,” and that the indwelling spirit of the Lord prompts this in us. Of all the great gifts God has given us, prayer is one of the most special. It's how our spirits commune with the One who loves us with perfect love. And He's always ready and waiting to hear from us.Let's pray.Father God, we worship you for who you are. We love you, and thank you for loving us. Thank you for making a way for us to talk with you about the things that lie hidden in our hearts. In Jesus' name, amen.Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

Hello again friends. Thanks for listening to Winfluence, the Influence Marketing Podcast. It's been a minute! For those keeping track, the last time I posted an episode of Winfluence was two years ago. I hope you haven't missed me, but I also hope you're excited to hear something new from my thoughts on influence marketing. And, as a measure of transparency, know that the only reason I stopped regular episodes of the show is … well … it worked. I've been blessed with a full roster of client work in that time and just didn't have the bandwidth to keep up the pace. But that means I have two more years of experience dealing with the day to day of influence marketing strategy, campaign management, execution and measurement. I've also been teaching students an influence strategy course at the University of Louisville, so it's not like I'm coming back to the podcast without new ideas or fresh perspective, so I hope you'll appreciate that. And, to be realistic, I can't promise I'm going to churn out a weekly episode from now on and be right back in the saddle. Let's just say when I've got to something to share with you, I will. So your subscription is still worth holding onto. And I won't be throwing countless episodes at you just to stay top of mind.  For those of you who enjoy a good Jason Falls rant now and then, you'll be delighted to hear that those moments are really the ones when I have something to say and share. So expect less interviews and more grumpy old man wishing the world would be better. When a new episode of Winfluence pops into your feed … It'll be fun, for sure. What burr in my saddle has me champing at the bit to return to the podcast?  Talent managers are killing the creator economy.  I explain how and why on this episode of Winfluence.  Learn more about your ad choices.
