https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260826dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion (Jesus said) “I will build my church.” Matthew 16:18 A Church Built by Jesus Many people have mixed feelings about the Christian Church. Some have wonderful memories. Others have painful ones. Some think churches are full of hypocrites. Others wonder whether organized religion is even necessary. Jesus knew his followers would not be perfect. Peter himself would later deny knowing Jesus three times. Yet Jesus still said, “I will build my church.” Notice that he did not say, “People will build my church.” The Church belongs to Jesus. Christians are not gathered because they are better than everyone else. They are gathered because they know they need forgiveness. A hospital is filled with sick people, not because sickness is good, but because healing is needed. The Church is much the same. It is a place where people hear God’s promises, receive his forgiveness, and grow in faith together. Sometimes Christians and Christian churches become discouraged. We may wonder whether our efforts matter. Jesus reminds us that the Church’s foundation is not human wisdom, popularity, or impressive programs. The Church stands on the confession that “Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” (Matthew 16:16) Wherever Jesus Christ is faithfully preached, there his church is found. Buildings may crumble. Congregations may struggle. Cultures change. Yet Jesus Christ continues to build his church through his gospel. The foundation of your own faith is equally secure. Your confidence is not in your consistency or strength, but in Jesus Christ’s unchanging promise. He remains faithful even when his people struggle. So, if you have stayed away because Christians have disappointed you, remember this: Christianity is not built upon perfect people. It is built upon a perfect Savior. Jesus gave his life for imperfect people. He welcomes doubters, failures, and sinners. When you visit a faithful Christian congregation, you should not expect to find flawless people. Instead, you should expect to hear about a flawless Savior who loves broken people enough to die for them. That is the Church Jesus Christ continues building today. Prayer: Lord Jesus, help me look beyond the imperfections of people and see you. Lead me to a church where your Word is faithfully taught and where I may grow in knowing you. Amen.

On parle beaucoup de représentation des femmes dans la danse et dans la culture, et en fait, quand on regarde ce qui passe sur les réseaux, les scènes, les festivals, on pourrait presque se dire que ça y est, que les choses ont changé et que le problème n'existe plus vraiment.Sauf que pas vraiment.Parce qu'être visible, ce n'est pas forcément être présente là où les décisions se prennent. Comme dans les jurys, les commissions, derrière les programmations, aux platines, dans tous ces espaces où, finalement, on décide aussi de qui aura sa place.Et parfois, de voir simplement quelqu'un arriver à un endroit où on n'a pas l'habitude de le voir, c'est déjà se dire « ah ok, donc c'est possible pour moi aussi ».Dans cet épisode, on parle aussi de la fête comme espace d'émancipation, de la manière dont on se réapproprie nos corps, nos identités, certains espaces, et de tous ces fonctionnements qu'on reproduit parfois sans même vraiment se demander pourquoi.On se dit aussi que la danse peut être un outil de reconnexion à soi, aux autres et, tout simplement, au présent.Bref, beaucoup de sujets qui me parlent énormément :)

Asymmetric Warfare: Politics and Cultures of Violence in the Modern Era (Cambridge University Press, 2025). The forces that fight asymmetric wars are so distinct that one side avoids direct military confrontation in favor of political, social, or otherwise unorthodox means of resistance. These conflicts have been a mainstay of modern times, though scholars have often separated them into various designations by era. Observers have referred, in chronological order, to Indian warfare, petite guerre (small war), guerrilla warfare, irregular or revolutionary war, and terrorism. The proliferation of labels over time has obscured the continuity of asymmetric wars throughout modernity. Stark distinctions in resources and capabilities have shaped the reasons why states and societies have decided to fight, and the manner in which they have fought. Across the modern era, mismatches arose in the domains of technology, intelligence production, and law. But in recent decades, so-called weak powers have neutralized many of the typical advantages of strong military states. Jacob Hagstrom is an army veteran and historian. He earned a PhD in history from Indiana University, Bloomington, and taught courses at the Citadel, the Military College of South Carolina. Chris Millington is Professor of Modern European History and lead of the Histories and Cultures of Conflict research group at Manchester Metropolitan University, UK. He is the author of eight books including Murder in Marseille: Right-Wing Terrorism in 1930s Europe ((Manchester University Press, 2025), The Invention of Terrorism in France, 1904-1939 (Stanford University press, 2023), and France in the Second World War Collaboration, Resistance, Holocaust, Empire (Bloomsbury Academic, 2020).

What does connection mean to you? How do you know when you're feeling connected?Connection is foundational to building trust, and trust is an essential quality that any team or relationship needs to grow.Yet in many relationships, both personally and professionally, we tolerate disconnection. We miss the early signals of missed deadlines, the subtle cues of quiet resentment, and the team that's compliant and even productive, but not engaged.  Until disconnection creates the distrust, the dis-ease, and the erosion of psychological safety that, left unchecked, hijacks even the strongest relationships, teams, and organizations.Leaders and their teams need to not only learn to identify markers of disconnection early, but to also develop the skills to repair it. The goal isn't a team that never ruptures. It's a team that knows how to reconnect.That's why I'm so excited to talk with my guest today about her work that integrates well-being science, positive psychology, and systems-level leadership to help organizations uncover what it takes to build connected, thriving teams where well-being and high performance can truly coexist.Jamie Shapiro, PhD, is a Keynote Speaker, Master Certified Executive Coach, organizational psychologist, researcher and the CEO of Connected EC. Jamie's approach blends science, strategy, and lived leadership experience to her work with CEOs and executive teams navigating growth, complexity, and cultural transformation.Jamie is the author of Brilliant: Be the Leader Who Shines Brightly Without Burning Out and Connected Culture: The New Science for Thriving Teams and Cultures.

What would health care look like if nurses had the power to shape the systems they work in? In this episode, Dr. Beverly Malone, President and CEO of the National League for Nursing, discusses why nurses must be recognized not simply as health care workers, but as healers, leaders, educators, and system shapers. She explains how nursing's unique combination of scientific expertise, empathy, advocacy, and whole-person care gives nurses a critical perspective on what patients and health care systems need. Dr. Malone calls on health care organizations to invest in nurses by providing career pathways, supporting well-being, fostering inclusion, and ensuring meaningful participation in decision-making, arguing that the future of health care depends on listening to and empowering the nurses already at the center of care. Tune in for an inspiring conversation about the power nurses already hold, and what health care systems can do to listen to, support, and empower them to lead!  About Dr. Beverly Malone: Dr. Beverly Malone is President and CEO of the National League for Nursing. A nurse, educator, clinician, and global health care leader, she has held senior leadership roles in the United States and the United Kingdom, including serving as Federal Deputy Assistant Secretary for Health under President Bill Clinton and as General Secretary of the Royal College of Nursing in the UK. Her work has focused on nursing education, leadership, diversity and equity, evidence-based practice, and advancing nurses' roles in shaping health care systems. Things You'll Learn: Nurses are healers whose work combines science, skill, empathy, trust, and hope. Nurses exercise leadership every day by coordinating complex systems around patient care. Health care organizations must replace gratitude alone with meaningful structural support for nurses. Nurses need a seat at decision-making tables because their frontline perspective can reveal what systems miss. Nursing education and clinical practice must collaborate to prepare and support nurses throughout their careers. Cultures of belonging and well-being are essential to retaining nurses and delivering quality care. Empowered nurses can help lead health care toward prevention, health promotion, and more coordinated care. Resources: Connect with and follow Dr. Beverly Malone on LinkedIn.

Job is not the only ancient book about a righteous man who suffers for no nameable reason. Cultures across Sumer, Babylon, and Egypt wrote about pious sufferers who lamented, searched their lives for a hidden crime, and found nothing—and every one of them eventually traded away either their innocence or their god to make the pain stop. David and Christine open a new series on Job by reading it alongside these ancient neighbors and showing why Job refuses that trade, and why what he asks for is not relief but vindication.

Language departments across higher education are facing a familiar challenge: declining enrollments, shrinking degree pathways, and increasing competition for space in students' schedules. But what if the solution isn't asking students to commit to a major or minor? What if it's offering something smaller, more flexible, and directly connected to their career goals?In this episode, host Dr. Grant Gearhart sits down with Dr. André Zampaulo, Professor of Linguistics and Chair of the Department of Linguistics, Literatures, and Cultures at Saint Louis University, to explore how academic micro-credentials are transforming language recruitment and retention. Drawing on SLU's remarkable success, Dr. Zampaulo shares practical strategies for designing micro-credentials, recruiting students intentionally, and building programs that attract entirely new audiences without undermining traditional majors and minors.Whether you're a department chair, language educator, or higher education administrator, this conversation offers a data-driven roadmap for reimagining the future of language programs in an era of changing student needs.In this episode, you'll learn:Why micro-credentials are emerging as a powerful response to declining language enrollmentsHow to design flexible, career-focused credentials that appeal to today's studentsRecruitment strategies that move beyond mass emails to personalized outreachWays to build student community and improve retention, even in short academic pathwaysAbout Dr. André Zampaulo:Dr. André Zampaulo is Professor of Linguistics and Chair of the Department of Linguistics, Literatures, and Cultures at Saint Louis University.

Welcome to the Firstbeat Sports Podcast where we talk with coaches and sports scientists to explore the latest in physiology monitoring and how it is making a difference in team sports. We're going to connect you with practical advice from the best in the business to help you take your athletes to the next level.In this episode, we're chatting with Matias Sarvela, S&C Coach at HIFK. Matias is an experienced strength and conditioning coach with a uniquely international background in professional ice hockey and athlete performance. Throughout his career, he has worked across Finland, U.S. college sports, and professional organizations in China, Russia, and North America, gaining extensive experience in a wide range of coaching environments and performance systems.Matias has built his expertise through years of working closely with elite athletes, helping teams optimize performance, manage training loads, and navigate the demands of long competitive seasons. His international experience has given him valuable insight into different coaching cultures, athlete development pathways, and approaches to performance management.In this conversation, Matias shares the lessons he has learned from working across diverse hockey environments, including managing demanding travel schedules, adapting to new cultures, and individualizing training for athletes with different needs and backgrounds. He also discusses how heart rate-based internal load monitoring data can be translated into practical coaching decisions, along with his perspectives on player development, weekly load planning, effective communication within high-performance teams, and the future of strength and conditioning in ice hockey.

What happens when people discover they have more choice than they thought?In Part 2 of my conversation with Dr. Marcella Finnerty and Dr. Shu-Han Huang, we go deeper into how Mental Freedom® translates across cultures and what happens when women begin recognizing choices they may never have realized were available to them.Shu-Han shares an important insight from her work with Taiwanese women. While I often teach that moving from “I have to” to “I want to” can restore a sense of freedom, “I choose to” may actually feel more empowering in some collectivistic and paternalistic cultures. That observation was so important that I incorporated it into the updated Mental Freedom curriculum.Marcella shares what she witnessed among women in Ireland and the Middle East, including participants navigating displacement and armed conflict. For some, Mental Freedom wasn't about changing an extraordinarily difficult external reality. It was about finding the internal freedom to decide how they wanted to respond within that reality.Together, we explore:Why choice can look different across culturesThe difference between external freedom and internal freedomWhat women across cultures may have in commonWhy having choices doesn't mean those choices are easy or desirableThe importance of agency when circumstances cannot be controlledHow Mental Freedom builds upon Choice Theory while expanding its practical applicationThe Six Principles of Mental Freedom®Why Mental Freedom is a continuing practice rather than something you completeOne of my favorite ideas from this conversation comes from Marcella, who describes what she observed as a “longing for agency.”That longing isn't limited to women, one culture, or one part of the world. We all want to know that even when we can't control what happens around us, we still have some influence over what happens within us.Missed Part 1?Listen to Part 1 of my conversation with Marcella and Shu-Han here:https://player.captivate.fm/episode/8c1a05c7-d006-47ce-bf25-9f560032d350/Connect with Marcella FinnertyEmail: marcella@iicp.ieConnect with Dr. Shu-Han HuangLinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/shu-han-huang/Email: shuhanhuangphd@gmail.comLearn More About Mental Freedom®Visit MentalFreedom.net to learn about the Mental Freedom Experience and other ways to explore and practice Mental Freedom.

I can bet you want two things: a thriving team and a thriving culture. For a lot of us, they feel like a mirage — we can see them, but we can't quite get there. In this episode I sit down with Dr. Jamie Shapiro, author of Connected Culture: The New Science for Thriving Teams and Cultures, CEO coach, and organizational psychologist. We dig into why she calls culture an "operating system," her five C's model (with connection — care and trust — at the center), why clarity is a force multiplier and not bureaucracy, the difference between collaboration and teamwork, and how AI shows up differently in cultures built on trust versus fear.

In this conversation from 2024, Alex speaks with Erwin Dekker about the economics and public policy perspectives on art, examining various theories on how art derives its value in communities. Dekker explores the idea of the separation between art and state, discusses cultural significance and individual perception in determining the worth of art, and how art's intangible qualities challenge traditional economic valuation.

In a time of fracture, in which people are searching for meaning and belonging, it is no wonder that men are re-exploring what manhood means. Yet the sense-making project around manhood has veered from the mythic journey it rightly could and should be into decidedly different territory. The last several years have seen the rise of the alt-right manosphere, whose narratives journey into outright misogyny, eugenics racism, and advocated violence. To weave these stories, the manosphere reaches for everything from fascist philosophers to Nordic animism to Bronze Age mythology, spinning tales of heroes who shone in individualist glory in order to reinforce a vision of the true man as one who dominates and triumphs and to reclaim an ancient vitality that they say is sapped by everything from immigration to feminism. But the vitalist manosphere ultimately misunderstands its own mythologies. Those Bronze Age stories, more often than not, are not celebrations of heroism but stern warnings about overstep, invitations into humility, and reminders of relationality. So the manosphere misses the mythic point, which is that, in tradition after tradition, there is an understanding that vital energy must be tempered, and rogue men who seek only domination must be brought back into the relational web. Cultures across the world have understood that warrior energy is a real thing, and that it needs initiation and initiatory systems to temper it and transform it from an adolescent vision of domination to a mature vision of kinship and service. To transform this vital energy — this predilection towards intensity — requires more than just discourse that dismisses it entirely. Rather, it requires recognizing the longing that lives at the heart of it, just as it requires a commitment to community, to accountability, to eldership, to initiation, and to accompaniment — every burning step of the way. Featuring interviews with authors Tyson Yunkaporta, Jamie Wheal, and mythopoetic guide Ian McKenzie, and original music from Travis Puntarelli, Rainer Baumorr, and Victor Sakshin, this episode takes us on a journey through the blazing depths of the sour-belly-power in its darkest and most glorious expressions. Play it for your nephews and brothers and sons. And for those bros with enough attention span to make it to the last 30 minutes, there may just be a gift waiting.Support the show

The Democratic Party: From Kennedy to Today In this episode of Mining the Media, G.K. opens with his talking points and makes an observation that unknowingly sets the stage perfectly for Dave's Crusty's Corner. G.K. argues that if common sense prevailed across America, we would recognize that most Americans are somewhere near the political center—between the 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock positions. Most Americans love their families, value their faith, and love their country. Yet it is often the voices on the extreme left and right that seem to dominate our political landscape. Dave picks up that theme in Crusty's Corner with "The Democratic Party: From Kennedy to Today." Looking culturally, historically, and biblically at the Democratic Party from the generation of John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy to the present, Dave explains that politics does not shape culture nearly as much as underlying worldviews shape both culture and politics. Once objective truth is rejected and people begin determining truth for themselves, everything downstream eventually moves with it. Political parties change. Platforms change. Coalitions change. Cultures change. But God's truth does not. As Dave reminds listeners, Christians should never evaluate Scripture through politics. We must evaluate politics—and every other worldview—through the unchanging truth of God's Word.

Two families raise their kids in completely different ways. Both are doing it right. So why do clinicians so often assume one of them is doing something wrong? Najat Fadlalla, a developmental behavioral pediatric fellow, returns to unpack how cultural bias creeps into parent coaching, the first-line, evidence-based approach for children with or at risk of ADHD. This episode is based on her article "How cultural competence transforms modern parent coaching," published on KevinMD. You will hear why so much parenting research draws from a narrow slice of the world, how the same strict parenting can carry very different outcomes depending on the culture around it, and a real clinic exchange where honoring a mother's values worked better than correcting them. You will learn to pause on your first reaction, ask better questions, and honor a family's values while still giving evidence-based advice. You will come away with a practical way to spot your own blind spots and coach families across cultures without pathologizing what is simply different. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform. With over three million monthly readers and half a million social media followers, I give you direct access to the doctors and patients who matter most.

NASA is packed with brilliant people, high standards, and deep purpose and yet the Columbia disaster revealed something every leader needs to face: a culture can feel positive and still produce dangerous decisions. We sit down with Philip Mead, a 31-year NASA veteran who led cultural transformation work after Columbia, to unpack how high employee engagement can coexist with normalized risk, missed signals, and the quiet pressure to stay silent when you cannot “prove it with data.”We get practical about what's happening under the surface: cognitive biases triggered by identity threats, credibility fears, and the human need for belonging and competence. Philip explains why psychological safety is not just about avoiding yelling or conflict, but about whether people believe it is safe and worth it to raise concerns, challenge assumptions, or share difficult truths. You'll hear concrete culture change strategies NASA used, including normalizing dissent, building independent communication paths for safety issues, and teaching leaders to spot bias language and call timeouts before decisions drift.We also connect culture to strategy execution through a simple model: start with the few critical behaviors your strategy requires, clarify the beliefs behind those behaviors, then design shared experiences that reinforce them. We close with a direct leadership challenge that applies whether you lead five people or five thousand: what behaviors are you unintentionally rewarding or discouraging right now?Subscribe for more intentional leadership conversations, share this with a leader on your team, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Connect with Phillip: https://www.linkedin.com/in/philliptmeade/Book a coaching call with Cyndi: https://www.intentionaleaders.com/Questions?

On this episode of the Insurance Coffee House, Nick Hoadley is joined by Tracy Letzerich, Chief People Officer at Hippo Insurance. With a career spanning consulting, technology, organisational design, and people leadership, Tracy shares how an unconventional path into HR has shaped her approach to building high-performing organisations. Tracy reflects on her early career in technology consulting, where she worked on large-scale business transformation programmes before becoming fascinated by a recurring question: why do some transformations succeed while others fail? That curiosity led her away from software implementation and towards organisational design, leadership, and the people side of change.The conversation explores Hippo's evolution from an insurtech startup into a profitable, publicly traded insurance company. Tracy explains how the business has maintained many of the characteristics of an early-stage technology company, including rapid decision-making, strong cross-functional collaboration, and a culture built around innovation, while developing the operational discipline required of a modern insurer.Nick and Tracy discuss the relationship between technology and culture, and how Hippo has created close partnerships between engineering, product, and insurance teams. Rather than technology operating separately from the business, Tracy explains how technical teams are involved in solving insurance challenges from the outset, creating a collaborative approach that has become a defining part of Hippo's culture.A significant part of the discussion focuses on workforce enablement through technology. Tracy shares how Hippo approached organisation-wide adoption by giving every employee access to AI tools, encouraging experimentation, measuring adoption, and creating opportunities for technical and non-technical teams to learn together. She explains why creating capacity is ultimately about giving people more time to focus on strategic, high-value work rather than repetitive manual tasks.The conversation also explores leadership, hiring, and organisational growth. Tracy shares her perspective on building high-performing teams, maintaining culture as organisations scale, and why behavioural interviewing, curiosity, and cultural alignment are just as important as technical expertise. She also explains why leaders should focus on helping employees spend more time doing work that energises them.Nick and Tracy close with practical advice for leaders navigating change. Tracy encourages organisations to embrace curiosity, move before every answer is known, and create environments where learning is expected rather than feared. She also shares advice for candidates and leaders alike: know what matters to you, ask thoughtful questions, and don't try to become someone you think others want you to be.Connect with Tracy Letzerich on LinkedIn to follow her work across people leadership, organisational design, leadership development, and technology-enabled transformation.The Insurance Coffee House Podcast is brought to you by Insurance Search.We are a global Insurance Executive Search Consultancy, supporting Insurance and Insurtech businesses to attract and retain the very best insurance talent.Find out more about showcasing your employer brand as a guest on the Insurance Coffee House Podcast or sign up to our News and Insights.Or follow us on LinkedIn, Twitter or Instagram.Insurance Executive Search Consultants in USA, London and Bermuda.Copyright Insurance Search 2025 - All Rights Reserved.

There is nothing wrong with positive feedback. But a feedback-positive culture can train people to accept feedback, nod their heads, and say yes without ever truly letting the feedback reach them. The feedback that makes a difference creates disruption, and leadership is forged by sitting with the discomfort instead of explaining, justifying, or turning it into the next action.  

Josh Williamson and Hayden Sherman join Jace to discuss the return of Legion of Super-Heroes.
