There's one exercise that can have a tremendous impact on your health, and that's rebounding. Fayth Caruso is a movement educator with Bellicon, and she's spent years studying why this one piece of equipment keeps people moving from childhood into their 90s.Rebounding sounds like a niche thing until you understand what it's actually doing under the surface. From lymphatic flow and pelvic floor strength to proprioception, cross-hemisphere brain work, cellulite, lipedema, and cognition, Fayth ties it all back to something the modern world has stripped out of daily life: vertical, joyful, low-impact movement.Fayth explains why two minutes on a rebounder can do more for your nervous system than many of us realize.Visit lukestorey.com/bellicon and use code LUKE for 10% off now through October 31st.You'll learn:[0:00] Introduction[4:52] Why our completely flat, sedentary world is making us fall[8:25] The proprioception crisis and the 87-year-old who rebounded to save her freedom[11:59] Movement as the fastest reset for a stressed-out mind[16:10] The flat world problem, and why homes need uneven surfaces[22:20] Children move like little monkeys, and what adults forget[25:50] Low-impact movement, aging joints, and wringing out fascia through spinal rotation[32:38] The lymphatic system needs a vertical pump, not an inversion shortcut[39:50] Cross-hemisphere jumping jacks rewire your cognition[43:50] Closed-chain bouncing reawakens the pelvic floor over Kegels[54:41] Bellicon's bungee strength sets it apart from spring rebounders[1:00:55] Carrying your kid beats weighted vests and gym gimmicks[1:08:13] Lipedema and lymphedema communities finding relief through reboundingResources Mentioned:Studies on the Benefits of Rebounding | DocumentCAROL Bike | WebsiteRead: Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen by Christopher McDougall | BookEarth Runners | WebsiteIllusion | WebsiteKaty Bowman | WebsiteVibePlate | WebsiteBellicon Rebounder | WebsiteGlymphatic System | WikipediaRead: A Horse Named Lonesome: Tales and Teachings to Reclaim Connection, Transcend Separation, and Discover the Divine Within by Luke Storey | BookFull show notes at lukestorey.com/reboundingRelated The Life Stylist Episodes:Nutritious Movement: The Anti-Workout with Katy Bowman | PodcastFind more from Fayth:Fayth Caruso | InstagramBellicon | Website | Instagram | Facebook | X | TikTok | YouTubeFind more from Luke:Luke Storey | Instagram | Facebook | X | YouTube | LinkedInThe Life Stylist is Brought To You By:BIOPTIMIZERS | Visit bioptimizers.com/luke and use code LUKE15 to save 15% off sitewide.

Read OnlineA Model of Holy Love and DesireOn the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them, “They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don't know where they put him.” John 20:1–2When Jesus first encountered Mary Magdalene, she was afflicted by seven demons. Many Church Fathers interpret this number as symbolizing a complete domination by evil spirits. Though later traditions identified Mary Magdalene with the repentant prostitute or the woman caught in adultery, the Gospels themselves do not explicitly make that identification. What is certain is that she had been grievously afflicted by demons (cf. Luke 8:2).To fall into such spiritual bondage suggests a life marked by serious sin. However, diabolical possession is not always the direct result of mortal sin; at times, God may permit such affliction for reasons known only to His providence, allowing a greater good to emerge from it. Whatever the cause of Mary Magdalene's prior affliction, it is clear that God, in His infinite mercy, transformed her into a radiant model of holy love and desire. From her profound healing flowed a singular devotion to Christ.Today's Gospel beautifully portrays the emotion, desire, sorrow, and love flowing from Mary's heart. She was one of the few faithful disciples who remained with Jesus during His Passion and death. She stood by the Cross alongside Jesus' mother, the Apostle John, and a few other holy women. Her strength and devotion likely sprang from her heartfelt gratitude toward Jesus for delivering her from diabolical affliction. The freedom she experienced through Him enkindled in her an unwavering faith, recognizing Him as the Messiah and the Son of God.On Easter Sunday morning, before the sun had even risen, Mary made her way to the tomb to anoint Jesus' body. Since Jesus had died shortly before the Sabbath began—sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday—Mary and the other women had been unable to properly anoint His sacred Body. We can imagine that from the moment the Sabbath began, her heart was fixed on one desire: to return to the tomb and perform this final act of love. Her devotion could not wait. Love compelled her to act as soon as it was permitted, and in doing so, she became the first to behold the empty tomb—and soon after, the Risen Lord.We see Mary's holy love and desire also in her determination to remain at the empty tomb. After seeing the stone rolled away, she ran to tell the Apostles, and then returned with Peter and John. But after they departed, Mary remained. She stayed, weeping, loving, and longing. She was so consumed with desire for her Lord that, when she saw two angels seated in the tomb, she was neither startled nor impressed—not even when they spoke to her: “Woman, why are you weeping?” Her only thought was for Jesus: “They have taken my Lord, and I don't know where they laid him.”Even when Jesus appeared, His identity veiled from her eyes, she still sought only His body. Yet it was His voice—tender, familiar, unmistakable—that pierced the veil and opened her eyes of faith: “Mary!” She responded with that beautiful, personal cry of recognition, “Rabbouni!”Reflect today on the transformed soul of Saint Mary Magdalene. She went from diabolical affliction to a heart overflowing with holy love and desire for our Lord. She is a model for each of us. We must allow ourselves to be filled with the same gratitude for His grace and reconciliation, cultivate the same unwavering devotion, and burn with the same longing to find Him. When our hearts mirror Mary's, we too will hear the Lord call us by name. Be grateful. Desire Him. Listen for Him. And like Mary, you will find that He is already standing before you.Rabbouni! With Saint Mary Magdalene, I give thanks to You with all my heart for the freedom You have mercifully bestowed upon me. You have forgiven my sins, restored me to grace, and kept me safe from the snares of the enemy. With Mary, I pray that my passions and every movement of my soul may be caught up in love of You, driving me to seek You with all my being. Speak my name, O Lord, call me lovingly, and open my eyes to see You always before me. Jesus, I trust in You.

Today’s Topics: Father Robert Elias joins Terry 1) Gospel – Matthew 13:31-35 – Jesus proposed a parable to the crowds. “The Kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a person took and sowed in a field. It is the smallest of all the seeds, yet when full-grown it is the largest of plants. It becomes a large bush, and the ‘birds of the sky come and dwell in its branches.'” He spoke to them another parable. “The Kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed with three measures of wheat flour until the whole batch was leavened.” All these things Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables. He spoke to them only in parables, to fulfill what had been said through the prophet: I will open my mouth in parables, I will announce what has lain hidden from the foundation of the world. Bishop Sheen quote of the day 2, 3, 4) Terry and Father Robert discuss Saint John of the Cross
Contributor; Taylor Lynch, MD Educational Pearls: Thoracotomy Thoracotomy is used in traumatic cardiac arrest to replace conventional CPR with direct access to the chest. Goals include identifying and controlling reversible causes of bleeding, prioritizing blood flow to the heart and brain, and performing open cardiac massage. Trauma categories Penetrating trauma: Gunshot wounds and stab wounds. Has a higher chance of survival because the injury may be localized and directly repairable. Cardiac stab wounds may have the highest survivability because the defect can be visualized, repaired, and treated with blood administration. Blunt trauma: Motor vehicle collisions and falls from height. Has a much lower chance of survival. Western guidelines EMS must witness the patient lose pulses. Penetrating trauma: CPR for less than 15 minutes. Blunt trauma: CPR for less than 10 minutes. Survival decreases to essentially zero beyond these time limits. Eastern guidelines Focus on the presence of signs of life in blunt or penetrating trauma. Signs of life may include: Pupillary response. Measurable blood pressure. Purposeful movement. Patient selection Thoracotomy should only be performed when the patient has a reasonable chance of survival. It is a highly morbid procedure with significant occupational risks, including needlestick injury. Appropriate patient selection and timing are essential. Procedure Begin on the left side of the chest. Cross-clamp the aorta to restrict blood flow below the heart and prioritize circulation to the heart and brain. Identify and repair visible sources of bleeding involving structures such as the heart or lungs. Perform open cardiac massage as the equivalent of CPR. ACLS medications may still be administered.

The Cross Before the Crown Matthew 16:21, 17:13 by The Chapel Sandusky Campus
The Cross Before the Crown Matthew 16:21, 17:13 by The Chapel Port Clinton Campus
This powerful message invites us to pause at the cross and truly grasp what happened there. We often rush past Calvary to celebrate the resurrection, but we're challenged to sit with the reality that God Himself died for us. Through Luke 23, we encounter three groups of people: the righteous Jews who tried to help Jesus yet couldn't escape judgment, the unrighteous Jews who mocked Him yet received His forgiveness, and the Gentiles who recognized His divinity. The sermon reveals a stunning truth: our righteousness is futile, our remorse cannot save us, and we cannot run from God's judgment. Yet in our complete helplessness, Christ became our sin offering. The criminal on the cross didn't come with good works or religious credentials—he came with nothing but faith, and Jesus promised him paradise that very day. This is the heart of the gospel: salvation isn't about our merit but about God's incredible love. We were God's enemies, yet He chose to die for us anyway. The cross shows us that God doesn't love us because we're worthy; we're worthy because God loves us. This message calls us to remember that our salvation cost everything—the death of God Himself—and to live accordingly, not wallowing in shame but walking in the new life He purchased for us.
This is the weekly message from Thrive Church Online with Pastor Adam.
Let us know your thoughts, questions, and who you want to hear from next!In this episode of The Exchange, Ryan Loehr sits down with Perry Cross and Tom Ray, Co-Founders of Accessible Homes Australia, to explore one of the most overlooked corners of Australian social infrastructure, specialist disability accommodation. Perry sustained a spinal cord injury at 19 and spent decades in a system that wasn't built for him. Today he lives independently in a purpose-designed, voice-activated apartment on the Gold Coast. It's not just a better home. It's a different life. Together, Perry and Tom break down how their clustered independent living model can save the NDIS up to $75,000 per person per year compared to conventional care arrangements, a counterintuitive finding the system has been slow to embrace. They also walk through their newest development in Hervey Bay: a self-sufficient village with onsite hydrotherapy, adapted gymnasium, and 24-hour care, built for people who want independence, not an institution.

Only the Cross can make bitter waters pure again. In this message, Pastor Jasmine Weiler continues our Summer of Prayer series, walking through the Lord's Prayer and landing on one of its hardest lines: "Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors." Discover the four lies that keep us from forgiving, why forgiveness is about your relationship with God — not the person who hurt you — and how unforgiveness can quietly turn into bitterness if left unaddressed.
"Every one of us is shadowed by an illusory person: a false self. This is the man that I want myself to be but who cannot exist, because God does not know anything about him. And to be unknown of God is altogether too much privacy. My false self is the one who wants to exist outside the reach of God's will and God's love—outside of reality and outside of life. And such a self cannot help but be an illusion."–Thomas Merton, New Seeds of Contemplation
She was sought as a bride by many because of her exceptional beauty and wisdom as well as her noble birth. She was betrothed at a young age, and when her betrothed died, she refused to consider any more suitors, saying that since her betrothed was alive in Christ, it was not right for her to turn to another. Instead she turned to a life of virginity, ascetic struggle and prayer. She greatly influenced her younger brothers, turning them from worldly things to monastic life. She established a monastery and, with her mother Emilia, became a nun. She reposed in peace in 379. Her brother St Gregory of Nyssa held her in special honor. He was present at her death and gave a moving oration at her funeral. He describes how, in her last moments, she prayed thus to God: 'Thou, O Lord, givest rest to our bodies in the sleep of death for a little time, then Thou wilt waken them again with the Last Trumpet. Forgive me, and grant that, when my soul is parted from my body, it may be presented before Thee stainless and without sin, and that it may be as incense before Thee.' Then she made the sign of the Cross on her brow, eyes, face and heart, and died. St Gregory's work on the resurrection of the dead (available in English as On the Soul and Resurrection) is cast in the form of a dialogue between himself and his sister Macrina in which he is the earnest but ignorant student and she the wise and patient teacher. So do the Saints honor the Saints.

This sermon examines Mark chapter 15, focusing on the crucifixion of Jesus through three distinct voices: mockery, atonement, and confession. Craig highlights how the ridicule from bystanders and religious leaders fulfills Psalm 22, while the supernatural darkness signifies God's judgment being poured out on Christ as He bears the curse of sin. Central to the message is the theological concept of penal substitutionary atonement, where Jesus absorbs divine wrath to satisfy justice and secure righteousness for believers. The narrative culminates in the tearing of the temple curtain, symbolizing open access to God, and the centurion's confession that Jesus is truly the Son of God. The passage concludes with a call to live as living sacrifices in response to this profound demonstration of love and grace.
Is God real? If so, why is there so much evil in the world? How do we know our God exists? Why does God only hear you sometimes? What is going on with the tabernacle and the bread? How do I actually talk to God? These are some of the questions our Confirmation students asked in class one day. These questions can seem like obstacles to faith, when in truth they are often the first footprints leading toward it. A heart that asks such things is not necessarily far from God; rather, it is a heart that seeks. Among Christ's most surprising stories is the parable of the wheat and the weeds in today's Gospel passage. A farmer sows good seed, but in the darkness an enemy scatters weeds among the wheat. The servants are eager to tear the weeds out at once, yet the master restrains them. “Let both grow together until the harvest.” At first this seems almost careless. Why would a good master tolerate weeds? But Christ is teaching us something astonishing: God permits evil, not because He delights in it, but because His wisdom is so great that He can draw from it a harvest more glorious than we can presently imagine.We long for a world where God would uproot every evil before breakfast. Yet if He did, we might discover that many of the roots are tangled with our own. Patience is one of God's greatest mercies. The same sunlight that nourishes the wheat also gives the weeds one final opportunity to become something else. God's delay is not indifference; it is mercy reaching as far as it can before justice finally arrives.Sometimes His greatest answer is not to change our circumstances, but to change us. Silence is not proof that heaven is empty. Often it is the quiet in which roots grow deepest.In the end, Christianity does not merely explain evil; it proclaims that evil does not have the final word. The Cross itself appeared to be the greatest triumph of darkness, yet from that single Friday came the salvation of the world. If God could make mankind's worst crime the doorway to eternal life, then there is no sorrow, no question, no wound He cannot weave into His final harvest. One day, when the wheat is gathered into His barn, we shall discover that not one tear entrusted to Christ was ever wasted. --- Help Spread the Good News --- Father Brian's homilies are shared freely thanks to generous listeners like you.

Uflourish welcomes First Baptist Sulphur Springs, who have come in numbers on their annual summer mission trip from Texas up to the Milwaukee area in order to bless and support the ministries of Uflourish and several other churches in the area. Their pastor, Dr. Jeff Gravens, joins us in our Following Jesus series by diving into the portion of Luke 9 where Jesus calls his disciples to pick up their cross daily in order to follow him. In this daily surrender - a daily death to ourselves and the empty promises of the world - we find a lasting hope and purpose in our passionate pursuit of Jesus.

What if the biggest problem you're facing right now... is too small for the God you're praying to?In “The God of Great Wonders” by Ptr. Bobot Bernardo, we go back to Psalm 77:14. We ask 3 questions that will change how you trust Him:1. If He spoke the universe into being with zero effort, what can't He do in your situation?2. If the Cross was His declaration that “You are worth it,” what does that mean for the wounds you're hiding?3. If He is closest when you feel most alone and broken, where is He in your story right now?

Read OnlineThe Quiet Strength of MeeknessThe Pharisees went out and took counsel against Jesus to put him to death. When Jesus realized this, he withdrew from that place. Many people followed him, and he cured them all, but he warned them not to make him known. Matthew 12:14–16To souls who love God and are united to Him, today's Gospel reveals a profound lesson about facing opposition. “The Pharisees went out and took counsel against Jesus to put him to death.” Why? Because of their rigid interpretation of the Sabbath law of rest. But Jesus, as the Son of God, in union with the Father and the Holy Spirit, is the origin of that law. The Sabbath was meant to call to mind God's rest after the six days of creation—a contemplative rest in which the people reflected upon God's goodness.The Pharisees had turned the Sabbath into a burdensome obligation, a scrupulous and empty duty. Jesus, the Author and Lord of the Sabbath, saw it very differently. Acts of charity are never to be refrained from—not even on the Sabbath. For the “offense” of healing a man with a withered hand on the Sabbath, the Pharisees began plotting Jesus' murder.When Jesus realized this, He withdrew from that place. This retreat was not born of cowardice but of meekness—a virtue often misunderstood in our world. Biblical meekness is not weakness or timidity; it is power under perfect control. It is strength harnessed by wisdom and love. Jesus possessed all power yet chose restraint. He could have called down legions of angels to destroy His enemies, but instead, He quietly stepped away. His hour had not yet come.This divine meekness allowed Jesus to continue His mission with quiet determination. Many people followed Him, and He cured them all, bringing healing and restoration to broken lives. In this moment, we see Jesus' quiet strength perfectly expressed. He did not come to wage war against the leaders of the synagogue but to establish the Kingdom of grace and truth.In keeping with Isaiah's prophecy, Jesus draws hearts to Himself in silence and mercy. “A bruised reed”—fragile, bent, and seemingly worthless—He will not snap. “A smoldering wick”—flickering, nearly extinguished—He will not quench. Instead, He heals and rekindles, patiently leading justice to victory (cf. Matthew 12:18–21).Consider your own mission and the opposition you face. Do coworkers mock your Catholic practices—perhaps your fasting on Fridays or stepping away for daily prayer? Do family members dismiss your commitment to Church teaching on marriage, sexuality, or the sanctity of life? Do friends challenge your dedication to serving the poor as “wasted time” that could be spent advancing your career?Each of us is called to respond as Christ did—with meekness that reflects true strength. Prayerfully discern whether it is your “hour” to suffer rebuke, or if you are being called, like Christ in today's Gospel, to turn away from the hostility and focus on those whom God is drawing to Himself through your witness.Reflect today on any opposition you face as you strive to fulfill God's will. Not every battle must be fought today. Humility and meekness often call us to quietly retreat so we can build up the foundation of God's Kingdom in other hearts. Of course, the hour of the Cross will come for each of us. When it does, we must embrace it with love. But until that moment, we follow Jesus in discerning, listening, and loving—even in silence. Lord of perfect wisdom, though Your charity was met with hostility by the Pharisees, You did not always confront them. At times, You spoke out; at other times, You withdrew to continue Your mission in silence. Grant me, O Lord, a discerning heart, that I may know when I am called to stand firm in truth and when I must embrace humble silence. May I seek only to do Your will, that Your Kingdom of grace may be more fully established in and through my life. Jesus, I trust in You.

The First International Noahide Congress Will Gather Six Continents In Jerusalem To Build A Unified Global Religious Movement Preparing For AntichristFor years, NTEB has warned that the Seven Noahide Laws will provide the religious and judicial framework necessary to unite the nations under a counterfeit system of morality without Jesus Christ. Now, in November 2026, representatives from six continents are scheduled to gather in Jerusalem for the First International Congress of Noahides, and the organizers are telling us plainly that this is “a foundation, not a conference.” They are not gathering merely to exchange ideas. They intend to sign a founding charter, establish an international rabbinical court, create regional councils, adopt a unified syllabus, institute structured membership and build the financial machinery necessary to sustain a global religious movement. Christian, keep your wits about you, the man of sin is about to be revealed, and we are about to board Flight #777 on Titus213 Airlines!“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” 2 Thessalonians 2:3–4 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, think about what is being constructed with the First International Noahide Conference. A One World universal moral code, one centralized spiritual authority, one international judicial structure and one worldwide movement—with Jerusalem functioning as its spiritual center. This is precisely the type of institutional scaffolding required before a religious philosophy can become a religious government. The organizers even declare that delegates will arrive as individuals and leave as “one movement.” The scattered pieces are being assembled, the authority is being centralized, and the machinery of worldwide religious administration is being put into place. The deception is found in what the Noahide system appears to offer. It speaks of God, righteousness, prophecy, covenant, morality and the world to come. It condemns murder, theft, sexual immorality, idolatry and blasphemy. To the unsuspecting world, it will appear peaceful, reasonable and righteous. But it offers righteousness without the shed blood of Jesus Christ, reconciliation without the Cross, salvation without the Saviour and a kingdom without the King. It is not atheism attacking religion from the outside; it is a counterfeit biblical religion attempting to replace the gospel from within. We are watching something move from religious theory into institutional reality. The Seven Noahide Laws are being given a charter, courts, judges, councils, textbooks, rituals, financing and a global headquarters in Jerusalem. The First International Congress of Noahides may pass largely unnoticed by the mainstream media, but we are watching this unfold with our spiritual eyes wide open. The organizers say “history is beginning anew” and that the “prophetic hour has arrived”. They say this is a foundation and not merely a conference. On that final point, we should believe them. A foundation is being laid, but it is not being laid upon Jesus Christ. Today we bring you everything you need to know about the First International Conference of Noahides in Jerusalem.

Daily Boost Podcast Bring Out Your Inner Renegade July 16, 2026 | Episode 5499 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description People hear me say I'm the nicest renegade you'll ever meet and get freaked out. My wife said she didn't know she married a renegade. She did. Today I explain it — with a little help from Patrick Swayze in Roadhouse, a quickly Googled definition, and my motorcycle gang of professional nice guys. Being a renegade isn't about being mean. It's about being nice until it's time not to be nice, defying convention when it counts, and knowing exactly which lines you never cross. Borrow it from me today. It might fit you better than you think. Featured Story My gang and I learned one of our core rules riding the Tail of the Dragon in North Carolina. Eleven miles, 318 turns, no guardrails, blind curves leaning the wrong way. It's a wicked road doing its best to kill you. Up there, the speed limit isn't the big deal. Go too fast, and you might get a ticket. We all go a little fast in life. But there's one rule you can never break: you don't cross the double yellow line. Cross it, and you're going to jail. I see life the same way. We never cross the double yellow line — unless not crossing it would kill us. Important Points Being a renegade isn't being mean. You take care of business, defy convention when it counts, and stay nice doing it. Show up as yourself and repeat it until people know exactly who you are. A name you actually live becomes your brand. Know your double yellow lines. Speeding earns a slap on the wrist, but some lines in life cost you everything. Memorable Quotes You be nice until it's time not to be nice. Nobody said be mean — there just comes a time to take care of business. Always be nice and be cool, and expect others to be the same. If you need cool, buy some Ray-Bans. You'll be awesome. We never cross the double yellow line unless not crossing it would kill us. Then you do what you've got to do. Scott's Three-Step Approach Start by borrowing the renegade. Wrap it around yourself for one day and decide to be nice, cool, and unmistakably you. Then act on it today. Then set your rules of the road. Decide which lines are speeding tickets and which ones are double yellow lines. Finally, hold the code. Stay nice until it's time not to be nice, and only cross your line when survival demands it.

Today is day 197 and we are on the section on The Fifth Petition: "And forgive us our trespasses". 197. On what basis do you ask forgiveness? I ask God our loving Father to forgive me through his Son, Jesus Christ, who bore my sins upon the Cross, so that through faith and Baptism I can receive his righteousness. (Isaiah 53:4–12; Daniel 9:16–19; Luke 18:9–14; Acts 2:38; 13:38–39; Romans 5:17; Hebrews 9:11–26) We will conclude today with The Collect for Friday in Easter Week found on page 611 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

There is something deeply unsettling about temptation, not because it shouts, but because it borrows the language of Christ. Our Lord says, "Come to me, all who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest." Sin whispers nearly the same invitation: Come to me. I will quiet your loneliness. I will ease your pain. I will satisfy your hunger. Every addiction makes the same promise, and the devil himself has become a master ventriloquist, mimicking the voice of the Good Shepherd while leading souls toward a precipice. Yet there is one infallible difference. Christ always delivers what He promises, and more; sin never does. It offers rest but leaves exhaustion, freedom but forges chains, pleasure but plants regret. Only Jesus can lay down burdens without laying waste to the soul, for He alone carries the Cross that carries us home. --- Help Spread the Good News --- Father Brian's homilies are shared freely thanks to generous listeners like you.

Patrick explores the spiritual effect of habits like smiling in while trying to go to sleep to ease stress and lift the mood, responds to emails supporting a caller’s journey into Catholicism, and reflects on stories of conversion, confusion over Communion, and sincere efforts to answer tough questions about faith and family friction. Questions swirl about the reality of hell, the boundaries of sacrament reception, why the veneration of saints’ relics makes sense, and how Old Testament stories pair up with the Stations of the Cross. Audio: Sam Neill – Smile - https://x.com/SwrveYT/status/2077032782698528798/video/1?s=46 (00:19) Patrick shares emails that have come in regarding Lauren’s call from the first hour Lupe - Testimony about hell: I unfortunately got into witchcraft, and it opened dark doors. The devil and hell do exist, but Jesus saved me. (05:11) Bob - We always hear 'judge not' in culture, but that goes both ways. We can't judge the soul and outward appearances. In all God's hands, so we should just pray for them. (09:31) Matt - I want to go back to Church, but my wife has never felt welcome there. (12:38) Suzie - Church allows cremated but recommends burial. That's a contradiction from relics being taken from bones and placed outside grave. (19:38) Lucy - That previous caller cannot be godparents in Catholic church unless practicing Catholics. And you cannot shop around for parishes (23:42) Laura - My brother married a woman whose parish is a new apostolic church, and her son received communion there. (31:51) Imelda - What is church teaching on getting together with a person who committed adultery? (43:43)
After more than 400 episodes across eight years, Corey Kupfer launches a new quarterly roundtable with his law firm partners Brian Meegan and Sara Mostafa (together representing roughly 90 years of combined deal experience) to unpack why the projected 2026 M&A boom has not fully arrived, revisit the negotiation tactics behind the 1951 Korean War armistice, and share parting wisdom for business owners in a slower market. In this episode of the DealQuest Podcast, host Corey Kupfer launches a new quarterly roundtable format with his law firm partners, Brian Meegan and Sara Mostafa. Brian has been a partner for several years. Sara joined this year as the newest partner. Together the three represent about 90 years of combined deal experience across M&A, capital raises, cross-border transactions, and wealth management. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN You'll discover why the pent-up M&A demand projected for 2026 has not materialized as expected, how a Virginia-focused fund is challenging the assumption that acquisitions drain leadership talent out of state, and why wealth management continues to run counter to the broader slowdown. Brian and Sara explain what a $60 billion all-stock transaction involving AnySphere signals about AI M&A, what the 1951 Korean War armistice negotiations still teach modern dealmakers, and how a post-Soviet Russian deal turned on cultural understanding rather than a legal provision. THE FIRM'S JOURNEY TO A QUARTERLY ROUNDTABLE The DealQuest Podcast has run for eight years and passed 400 episodes with a rhythm of three guest interviews followed by a solocast. Brian Meegan joined the firm a few years ago as a partner and has appeared on the show as a guest a couple of times. Sara Mostafa joined this year as the newest partner and has also appeared as a guest since coming on board. With three partners now representing roughly 90 years of combined deal experience, Corey launched this quarterly roundtable to talk deals openly, share what each partner is seeing across their practice areas, and introduce a new Deals in History segment. DEALS IN HISTORY Brian opened the first installment of Deals in History with the 1951 Korean War armistice negotiations, which contained nearly every classic tactic anyone has ever written about. The North Koreans picked up the UN delegation in cars carrying white flags, used higher chairs to gain physical advantage, and pushed multi-meeting standoffs over table shape and flag size. At one point both sides sat in complete silence for over two hours, refusing to move on a single boundary point. The full negotiation spanned roughly 160 meetings across two and a half years, and the document that resulted is not a peace treaty. It is a ceasefire that has held since the end of the war. KEY INSIGHTS The pent-up 2026 M&A demand has not arrived. Energy price disruption, interest rate uncertainty, and other macro conditions have kept the big bump from showing up. Deal flow remains active, but both Brian and Sara noted a less frenetic pace toward closing. Wealth management remains a meaningful exception, with private equity capital and succession pressure keeping RIA deal flow robust. Outside wealth management, Sara is seeing active smaller and mid-market activity, especially for targets that have successfully integrated AI into operations. Andrew Dunlap's Virginia-focused fund is a useful counterweight to the standard acquisition narrative. He shared with Corey that 82 percent of Virginia acquisition buyers were from out of state, and top leadership talent tends to relocate with the new HQ. His commitment is to keep businesses local, in a mini Berkshire Hathaway style approach. Cultural understanding often matters more than a specific legal provision. Corey shared a story from the early 1990s, just after the Soviet Union fell, when a Russian counterparty refused to sign a standard non-circumvention agreement as a matter of deeply held belief. Corey structured around it by locking up non-circumvention agreements with the US suppliers directly, and closed the deal. There is a deal for almost any business frustration, challenge, or opportunity. Corey's parting wisdom points to acquihires, joint ventures, strategic alliances, and white labeling as underused options. Brian added Jim Collins' 2009 line to never waste a good recession. Sara closed with practical guidance for women-owned and minority-owned business owners to seek community and specialized funds beyond the SBA. Perfect for entrepreneurs weighing M&A moves right now, wealth management and RIA professionals tracking deal flow, and anyone interested in how experienced deal lawyers read the market quarter to quarter.

Today on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme, “The Anxious Generation,” focusing on how fear can rewire the brain. We had Dr. Fuz Rana, the President, CEO, and Senior Scholar at Reasons to Believe, as our guest. He discussed how God designed our brains to respond to fear and offered hope through His truth and the work of the Holy Spirit. Additionally, Dr. John Mabus, Associate Professor and Program Head of Pastoral Studies at Moody Bible Institute, joined us to discuss how fear affects everyone and how bringing our fears to God helps us respond with courage in both everyday situations and life’s greatest challenges. Dr. Erwin Lutzer unpacked how Scripture renews our thinking and helps us keep our focus on Christ. Dr. Lutzer is Pastor Emeritus of Moody Church and author of “Cries from the Cross.” You can listen to the highlights from today’s program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.

In today's episode of the Atheist Experience, Justin DZ and The Cross Examiner tackle biblical authorship, Christian nationalism, and the delicate balance of deconversion within families.Anne in CA asks about the authorship and historical compilation of the Bible. Justin explains the documentary hypothesis, detailing how multiple sources were edited over centuries with political motivations driving the final compilation. The Bible wasn't written by single authors but assembled from various traditions. Understanding this academic scholarship reveals the human fingerprints all over what many claim is divine revelation. How does knowing the Bible's messy origins change how we evaluate its claims?Hidde in Netherlands struggles with whether to deconvert his religious mother, who finds comfort in her faith after losing her own mother to dementia. The hosts discuss balancing truth-telling with compassion, recognizing that not every battle needs fighting. Sometimes causing unnecessary pain to someone vulnerable isn't worth the ideological victory. What responsibilities do we have to protect loved ones from harmful beliefs versus respecting their autonomy and comfort?Thank you for joining us this week!
