This teaching explains how Jesus' healing of the man born blind reveals the deeper meaning of salvation, showing that miracles serve not as spectacles but as signs of God's compassion, the Messiah's identity, and the spiritual restoration of humanity, especially in the context of Hanukkah, the Feast of Dedication; drawing from John 9:38–39, John 10, and John 5, the speaker emphasizes that Jesus is worshiped as God, fulfills the symbolism of light by giving sight to the blind, and exposes spiritual blindness among the religious elite, while also connecting healing miracles to Old Testament foundations such as Psalm 32, Isaiah 64:6, Deuteronomy 21:23, and prophetic expectations in Daniel, alongside New Testament insights from Luke 5:17, James 5, and the resurrection account in John 11, ultimately teaching that physical healing illustrates spiritual rebirth—where the blind see, the lame walk, the defiled are cleansed, and the dead hear the voice of Christ and come to life. You can connect with Moriel in more locations than just YouTube!

Craig's Dedication and Favorite Quote:I'd like to dedicate the episode to all of the Texas voters who voted in favor of Prop 5 in 2019 and the Centennial Parks Conservation Fund in 2023. These wins for Texas State Parks help us build, maintain, and staff our incredible parks. The park experience would be a lot different without this funding.My favorite quote was popularized by Gene Wilder in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory: A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men. Episode Description:In this episode of Trailblazing Texas Podcast, I sit down with Craig, Superintendent of Abilene State Park, to talk about leadership, conservation, and the quiet strength of this West Texas gem.Craig shares his journey with Texas Parks & Wildlife, what inspired him to work in parks, and what daily life really looks like as a superintendent.

Craig offers practical tips for first-time campers and hikers, along with insight into how Leave No Trace helps protect this special place.One of the highlights of our conversation is the park's CCC history, the structures, legacy, and why preserving that story matters just as much as protecting the land itself.We wrap up with ranger favorites, underrated spots, and a perfect one-day itinerary if you're planning your first visit.If Abilene State Park isn't on your radar yet, it should be.

You're at dinner and you're already mentally planning tomorrow's client call. You've been calling it passion. Dedication. But what if it's actually the thing standing between you and the life you keep saying you want?Last night I did a future self visualization that felt like a total flop. No income numbers, no business wins, no morning routine inspo. Just a calm, confident woman looking back at me. And honestly? It bummed me out at first.What came up after that is what this episode is really about. I'd been wearing constant work thoughts like a badge of honor, proof that I cared, proof that I was built for this. And the idea of not thinking about work felt like slipping.This one is raw, unscripted, and I'm sharing it as it came to me.If you have a few minutes, reflect on this Journal prompts:Start with the work if that's what comes up first. Money. Business goals. Success. What do your relationships actually look like? How do you feel when you walk through your front door? What are you doing simply because you enjoy it?What does being present feel like in your body? Who are you if you're not thinking about work all the time?Work with me:Breakthrough Intensive - You already know you should slow down, delegate more, stop overcommitting & be emotionally present. So why can't you? That's what we figure out in 90 minutes + integration call 2 weeks later.

Send a textWelcome to a very special edition of the program.Today, we dedicate this episode to a man whose voice, vision, and moral urgency helped shape the American political and social landscape for more than half a century — Reverend Jesse Jackson.From the civil rights movement to the national political stage, Jackson's journey is inseparable from the story of modern America. He stood at the crossroads of protest and policy, faith and activism, idealism and pragmatism. He spoke not only of justice, but of possibility — insisting that the circle of opportunity must always widen.In this tribute episode, we reflect on that remarkable life and legacy.You'll hear a retrospective drawn from CNN and Chicago's ABC News — revisiting the moments that defined a movement leader, presidential candidate, diplomat, and advocate for economic and racial justice.We'll listen to a conversation with former Atlanta Mayor and Ambassador Andrew Young, offering personal insight into Jackson's courage, convictions, and enduring influence.We'll also revisit a powerful interview recorded the morning after Barack Obama was elected President of the United States — capturing Jackson's emotion at a moment many saw as the realization of struggles decades in the making.From the 1980s, we bring you archival coverage of Jackson speaking at Duke University — where his words challenged audiences to think bigger about equality, responsibility, and shared destiny.And in a lighter but unforgettable cultural moment, we remember his beloved reading of Green Eggs and Ham — a reminder that leadership can inspire not only through speeches, but through humanity and joy.Finally, we'll share a five-minute excerpt from his historic 1988 Democratic National Convention address — a speech that remains one of the most eloquent calls for unity and compassion in American political history.And we're honored to announce that, on March 2nd and March 3rd, we will rebroadcast Reverend Jackson's full 1984 and 1988 Democratic National Convention speeches.This episode is also dedicated to two individuals whose lives touched our worlds in different, meaningful ways.To Robert Duvall, an artist whose performances brought depth, dignity, and unforgettable humanity to the screen.And to Myrtle Beach author, activist, and amateur radio operator E. Gordon Mooneyhan, whom we lost this past year. Gordon was a man of boundless curiosity and creativity — a lover of writing, photography, trains, and ham radio. He authored the Railroad Dining Car Cookbooks, chronicled the lives of friends through his books, held a degree in business administration from Coastal Carolina University, and served his community with quiet dedication — as a member of Seaside Masonic Lodge #419, the Grand Strand Amateur Radio Club, and a volunteer at the Emergency Operations Center during times of crisis.Today's program is offered in the spirit that connects all three of these lives — purpose, passion, and the belief that one person's voice can make a difference.Thank you for joining us.

In this session, we dive into the story of Solomon and the construction of the Temple. Solomon, the son of David, becomes known for his wisdom and skillful leadership as the king of Israel. Solomon builds the magnificent Temple in Jerusalem, the place where God's presence dwells among His people. As we explore the significance of the Temple, we reflect on the sacrificial system and the need for a permanent substitute to cover sins. Later, Solomon's disobedience, particularly in taking many wives, leads to his downfall and God's anger. We witness the consequences of Solomon's sin and how it ultimately results in the future division of the kingdom.Bible Readings1 Kings 8:1-52 (Solomon's Prayer of Dedication of the Temple)1 Kings 9:1-9 (God's response to Solomon)Support the showRead along with us in the Bible Brief App!

We start with self-leadership: how you show up, how you carry yourself, and why humility isn't optional. We get into competence, intellectual curiosity, and the overlooked power of energy and tone. What you tolerate becomes the standard. Colonel Arntson shares hard-earned lessons from leading in garrison and in combat, including moments that tested his decision-making, confidence, and character. If you're building a team, leading a family, or trying to lead yourself better, this episode delivers practical takeaways you can apply immediately.More about Colonel Ed Arntson:Ed Arntson, from Buffalo Grove, Illinois, graduated from Concordia College (2002) and commissioned as a Distinguished Military Graduate infantry officer through NDSU.

The Mitch Ammons story is no longer just a comeback story. He's now a living case study of what happens when discipline compounds.Last time Mitch was here he had run a 2:16 marathon, which was fast enough to qualify for the 2024 US Olympic Marathon trials. But he had bigger dreams.  And the quiet workhorse has since improved upon that impressive time with a new marathon PR of 2:14:48 at the California International Marathon in December of 2025. (This qualifies him for the 2028 US Olympic Marathon trials.)He also won the 2025 Austin Half Marathon with a time of 1:08:34, winning in a big way on his home course. Mitch continues to train as a member of the Bat City Track Club in Austin. He is also an athlete for BPN (Bare Performance Nutrition) and Altra Running.In the ultra-running realm, Mitch has expressed that he wants to run the 2026 Go One More Last Man Standing Ultramarathon again, an event he competed in last year (he finished third with 126 miles). Outside of running, he continues to work as a full-time realtor in Austin for the Landy Frost Group.Mitch Ammons didn't come back to retell the same story. He came back to show what sustained belief looks like in real time. Tap into the Mitch Ammons Special. If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

More about Jordan in her own words: I'm Jordan Eggerth. I am a professional athlete and the American Record Holder in the Women's Decathlon with a passion for Track and Field and sharing Jesus through my sport!    I have been beyond blessed in my life through my walk with Christ and He has helped shape me into the person I am today through trials, tribulations, love, grace, heartache, passion, grief, joy, pain, and His amazing plan with it all.    Since He has given me such a platform to reach others, I have decided that I should be sharing Him in every avenue I possibly can and sharing His amazing stories in my life to help inspire and help others.    I played many sports growing up including basketball (my passion), taekwondo, tennis, softball, and gymnastics. Even when I wasn't in an organized sport my days usually included lots of swimming, bike riding, tree climbing, knife throwing, gun/bow shooting, and many more activities.  Track and Field, however, was not a sport I had the opportunity to compete in until my senior year of high school.    In my senior year of high school my mother found Blane Williams with the Heat Track club at Kell High School. Coach Blane allowed me to join his team at 17yrs old and that opportunity has changed my life forever.    After a year of running with The Heat I went to school at Kennesaw State University to join their Track and Field team and be coached by Andy Eggerth in 2014.    Since then, I have graduated from Kennesaw State University where I was a 10x Conference Champion and 4x All-American in NCAA Division I Track and Field.    I have competed at NCAA D1 Championships, USA Championships, the Thorpe Cup in Germany for Team USA x2, The National Women's Decathlon Championship x2, and the Open De France. I was also the Bronze Medalist at the Pan American Games in 2023.    ​I continue with my professional career attempting to gain a spot on Team USA for various events.   I am the American Record Holder in the Women's Decathlon, as well as the Women's Decathlon 100m Dash, Long Jump American Record Holder. I am also the World Record Holder in the Women's Decathlon Long Jump I am currently working towards helping get women the opportunity to compete in the Olympics in the Decathlon.

The legal profession has a "dirty little secret." The toxic culture of martyrdom that equates suffering with success. In this episode, Gary Miles shares his journey from professional excellence to internal collapse. This episode challenges the industry standard of the 80 hour work week and explores why the most "dedicated" attorneys are often the most trapped. Listen for the vital difference between external validation and internal authority, and why strategic rest is actually a professional tool rather than a weakness. It's time for attorneys to choose personal freedom without compromising our professional standards. Gary provides a roadmap for moving from martyrdom to mastery, proving that you can serve your clients with excellence while still being present for your family.Get the Values Alignment Guide ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://upbeat-trailblazer-9238.kit.com/1604bbf4cb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take the Free Lawyer Assessment garymiles.net/the-free-lawyer-assessment Learn more about Breaking Free or order your copy ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.garymiles.net/break-free⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Schedule a complimentary discovery call: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://calendly.com/garymiles-successcoach/one-one-discovery-call⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch this episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqcfaTWo17uxmYS9hfAdiaQ
