Pascale  ----------------------- FULL TRANSCRIPT ----------------------- Welcome back, beautiful soul, to another episode of The Everyday Life Balance Show. Today, we'll dive into something that I know resonates with so many of you—those life-changing moments when you're standing at a crossroads, feeling completely stuck. I'm talking about navigating life's transitions, and I'll give you actionable steps and practical tools you can implement immediately. Let's break this down into three clear, unmistakable signs that you're at a turning point in your life and how to navigate through it gracefully. Sign #1: You Feel Lost and Confused About What's Next You know that nagging sensation when nothing makes sense anymore? When you stare at your life, it's like a puzzle with missing pieces. You don't know what path to follow. At a crossroads, it's common to experience a mental or emotional fog. You might be asking yourself questions like, "What am I meant to be doing next?" Or "Why does this no longer feel right?" This confusion isn't something to fear; it's actually a call for more clarity and alignment in your life. Here's your action plan: Get crystal clear about what your heart yearns for. 1.  Grab a notebook or journal right now 2.  List your life areas: Career, Health, Relationships, Finance, Personal Growth 3.  Rate each area from a scale 1-10 4.  Circle the lowest-scoring area That's your starting point. Allow some space for stillness so that the answers you seek begin to reveal themselves. Don't try to fix everything at once. Trust that you're not broken; you are becoming. Pick the one area that scored the least points and set three specific, measurable goals. For example, if it's your relationship, your goal might be to improve communication with your partner, do more activities together, and communicate more often with your family and friends. Whatever your action steps are, put them down on paper because what gets written gets done. Now that we've explored the feeling of confusion, let's move on to sign number two, which is equally powerful but often hidden—your inner craving for change even if you're not sure what that is yet. Sign #2: Your Inner Craving For Positive Change – Even If You're Not Sure What That Is Yet There comes a moment, quiet but insistent, when you realise that the life you've been living no longer fits who you're becoming. It might not be loud or dramatic – it might just be a subtle nudge, a whisper from within that says: "There's something more for you." Maybe your days feel repetitive, or your work no longer excites you. Being at a crossroads is a sign that you're growing. That deep sense of misalignment is your inner wisdom calling you toward a life that reflects your next level of growth. You're like a butterfly ready to break free from that cocoon, but maybe you're a little scared of spreading your wings. And guess what? We expect uncertainty. Here is the truth: change isn't always easy, no matter how simple it seems. As creatures of habit, we love our comfort zones, like I love a delicious matcha tea. Trust that something beautiful is unfolding, and here's your three-step implementation strategy that really works: 1. Audit your current habits: Track everything you do for three days 2. Identify what works and doesn't – what brings you joy? what feels heavy? 3. Create a specific replacement plan for each habit that doesn't serve you. Here are some tips regarding change management: Tip#1: Positive change requires consistent effort, therefore you need to block out specific times in your calendar Tip #2: You need accountability - find a partner or join a group Tip #3: Track your progress daily - use a habit-tracking app or simple spreadsheet Tip #4: Plan for obstacles - create if-then scenarios for common challenges Tip #5: Transformation begins with awareness, and awareness leads to inspired action. And lastly, Sign #3: You've Lost Your Sense of Purpose This last sign hits us deeply—you feel like your life has lost its meaning. You look in the mirror and barely recognise that person staring back at you. Where did that sparkly-eyed, enthusiastic version of you go? They're still there, trust me. They're just waiting for you to dig a little deeper into your essence and come back triumphant. The concrete actions you need to take are to reconnect with your purpose, passion, and mojo! Place your hand on your heart, take a deep breath, and ask yourself: What part of me is longing for more ease, joy, and authenticity? 1st task – Do a skills inventory: ·     List everything you're good at ·     Note what people compliment you on ·     Identify what gets you in flow. What can you do for hours without getting tired? 2nd task -  Assess Your Values ·     Write down your top five values ·     Rate how well your current life aligns with each ·     Create specific actions to increase alignment 3rd task -  Create an Implementation Timeline: Week 1: Allow some time for self-exploration Week 2: Test one new activity that aligns with your top values Week 3: Evaluate and adjust your performance Week 4: Commit to regular practice Remember, this isn't about perfection but consistent progress. Start with a tiny change today. Open your calendar now and block out 30 minutes for your first action step. Being at a turning point isn't a crisis; it's an invitation. While things may seem uncertain right now, it's an invitation to clarify your values, re-ignite your dreams, and make empowered decisions that honour who you are becoming. Before we wrap up this episode, could you do something for me? If you feel you're at a crossroads, take a moment to ask yourself: ·     “Who do I need to be to create the life I desire?” ·     “Where am I called to grow, even if I can't see the full path yet?” You don't need to have all the answers today. Just take the next gentle step with loving intention. If your heart whispered 'yes' during this episode, I invite you to share this message with someone who may also be standing at a crossroads. Let's rise together! Until next time, I'm sending you lots of love and light.

Reflections on Faith and Perseverance Expressing feelings of spiritual connection and gratitude. Feeling good and reflecting on David's Psalms. Quoting, "I love the Lord because," and feeling emotional every time it's read. Recalling a life-changing experience in an old building during a revival with Jeff. "It was just an old building... But that building changed my life." Expressing gratitude for a unique and personal communication with God. "When God talks to me, it's different than the way I've been talking to him before." Acknowledging God's ultimate sacrifice and love. "He loved you enough to die for you." Standing Firm in Faith: A Sermon on Daniel 3 Referencing Daniel Chapter 3, starting in verse 10. King Nebuchadnezzar's decree to worship a golden image under penalty of being cast into a fiery furnace. The story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who refused to worship the idol. Nebuchadnezzar's challenge: "who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?" Prayer and Seeking Strength Praying for God's presence and help. Thanking God for salvation and the ability to feel His presence. "Lord, I thank you for saving me, Father. Lord, I thank you for changing my life that night in Burma, Tennessee." Seeking strength and growth in faith. "Lord, I pray that I can grow stronger in you, Father." Expressing gratitude for God's love, even for those who don't reciprocate. "Lord, I thank you, Lord, that you put a love in my heart... for those that don't love me back, Father." Desiring to dedicate every breath to worshiping God. "Lord, I want to spend every last breath that I've got, Father... worshiping you." The Leper King and Standing Firm Discussing the importance of standing firm in faith and not backing down. Sharing the story of a leper king in Jerusalem who became king at 13. At 16, he was battling leprosy and could not move his right arm. Facing an army of Muslims (23,000 men) with only 5,000 men. The king's prayer for deliverance and subsequent victory. "We're outnumbered tremendously. We have no men. But... I know one man who can deliver us." Drawing parallels to Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who didn't bow down. Emphasizing the need for Christians to not give in to the world. Expressing admiration for brave and bold individuals. Pledging to pray for strength to stand strong for what is right. "As long as I'm living and breathing... I'm going to get on my knees... Help me stand strong for what's right." Addressing Worldliness and Prioritizing God Observing people giving in to sin and worldliness. Church members prioritizing worldly activities over spiritual ones. "Their bass boats is out on the lake on a Sunday. They're hunting on a Sunday." Questioning why God isn't blessing them. Promising that God will help those who prioritize Him. Referencing the leper king and Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego as examples. Addressing the men in the congregation. Stating that men should lead their families in a Godly way. Lamenting that men have given up on God, leading to negative consequences for their families. "Their families is dying and going to hell. It breaks my heart." Encounter on the Dragon Sharing a personal experience of encountering someone in need of spiritual guidance. Feeling divinely prompted to speak to someone broken down on a motorcycle on "the Dragon" (a road). Initially hesitant due to being late for church. Engaging in a conversation about Jesus Christ and being born again. Weeping and sharing personal testimony. Warning the young man about the dangers of dying without salvation. "If you die on this dragon, you'll die and go to hell." Praying with the young man, who ultimately declined to be saved at that moment.

Neil Young's most successful solo album is also considered his signature album.  Harvest was Young's fourth solo studio album, and it topped the Billboard 200 chart in the US for two weeks while also spawning two top 40 singles.  Young grew up in Winnipeg, Canada, and began playing and songwriting there in several groups.  His first success as a songwriter came for a song he wrote for The Guess Who which made it to the top 40 in Canada.  He was in the Mynah Birds, a Toronto group fronted by a young Rick James.  The Mynah Birds were attempting to get signed by Motown when James was arrested for being AWOL from the Navy reserves. Shortly after this, Neil Young and bassist Bruce Palmer sold the group's equipment, bought a hearse, and used it to move to Los Angeles.  He then worked as a session musician and a member of Buffalo Springfield before striking out on his own solo work while also joining Crosby, Stills & Nash.Harvest was written after an acoustic tour the previous year, a tour prompted by a back injury Young sustained that required him to play sitting down for an extended time.  The album contains significant acoustic elements, as several tracks he played on that tour would appear on the album.  Many of the lyrics are related to Young's growing relationship with actress Carrie Snodgress.  Young was a success before recording this album, and was able to bring in a number of session musicians on several tracks including Stephen Stills, Graham Nash, Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor, and the London Symphony Orchestra.Surprisingly, the album met mixed reviews when released, though over time the critics' assessments would turn much more positive.  The album was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2015.Wayne brings us this California country-tinged album for this week's podcast. Heart of GoldOne of the tracks that arose from Neil Young's acoustic tour, this song topped the charts in the United States and Canada, and went to number 10 in the UK.  Despite its success, Young had mixed feelings about the popularity he gained from the song.  Linda Ronstadt and James Taylor provided backing vocals on this track.  The lyrics talk about a man who may be overthinking life, searching for something just beyond his grasp.Old ManThe origin of this song was an encounter that Neil Young had with the caretaker of the Broken Arrow Ranch, which Young purchased in 1970.  The old caretaker was not pleased with the young (literally) hippie-looking Young purchasing the place, and this song's lyrics talk about how the two of them were not that different.AlabamaA continuation of a diatribe from Young's “Southern Man,” this track condemns the racism of the white people in Alabama specifically, and the southern United States in general.  Neil Young would eventually come to see the lyrics as too accusatory, and too easy to misconstrue as a general condemnation of all Southerners.The Needle and the Damage DoneThe inspiration for this song was a number of musicians whom Young had observed as they fell apart due to heroin addiction.  More specifically, Young wrote this song about bandmate Danny Whitten, whom Young had to let go from his tour due to his heroin use. Whitten would die of an overdose shortly thereafter.ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Cabaret by Liza Minnelli (from the motion picture “Cabaret”)Minnelli stars in this period musical drama based on the Broadway show, set in Germany before World War II. STAFF PICKS:Mother and Child Reunion by Paul SimonRob leads off the staff picks with a one of the earlier rock songs with reggae influences.  The song was written in response to a Jimmy Cliff song in which a mother receives a letter that her son had been killed in battle in Vietnam.  It was also inspired by Simon's loss of his dog.  The title was inspired by a menu item in a Chinese restaurant in New York - chicken and eggs - entitled “Mother and Child Reunion.”I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony) by the New SeekersBruce brings us a hit song which originally appeared as a commercial jingle.  Coca-Cola produced an ad called “hilltop” featuring young people of various races coming together over a Coke.  The success prompted a rewrite of the jingle into a full-length song, dropping the product references.  It became a big hit for both the New Seekers who recorded the radio jingle, and the Hillside Singers who recorded the television commercial.Let's Stay Together by Al GreenLynch features the song which hit the top of the US singles charts, and was named number one R&B song on the Billboard Year-end chart for 1972.  It has been covered by a number of artists, with Tina Turner being the most prominent.  It was also inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999. Do You Know What I Mean by Lee MichaelsWayne's closes out the staff picks with a song about a girl that a guy lost to his best friend after taking her for granted.  It reached number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Lee Michaels came out of the San Francisco music scene, originally as a surf band before moving into a more "blue eyed soul" direction.  Van Halen opened for Lee Michaels at the Whiskey a Go Go in 1977. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Joy (feat. Tom Parker) by Apollo 100This jazz instrumental covers the baroque chorale "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" by J.S. Bach.  Thanks for listening to “What the Riff?!?” NOTE: To adjust the loudness of the music or voices, you may adjust the balance on your device.

Soddy church of Christ

Jeff Hendrix on Philippians 3:4b-14: As we continue the sermon series Character & Calling we approach Paul's teaching on Faith. A faith that drives him toward the finish line. Desiring to participate with Christ in his death so he can experience the awesome power that raised Christ from the dead.

1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope; 1:2 Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord. 1:3 As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine, 1:4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do. 1:5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned: 1:6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; 1:7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm. 1:8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; 1:9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 1:10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; 1:11 According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust. 1:12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; 1:13 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. 1:14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. 1:15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. 1:16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting. 1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

The reason behind the importance of understanding these 3 things, listen to it!!

Right and wrong spirits develop in Christ's church. We can develop the spirit of Timothy or Judas. A Judas spirit will sell his Pastor for financial gain, and a spirit of Joab will undermine the authority of God's anointed ministry. If our attitude is correct, we will learn to submit to the Pastor's spirit and value it, for God shapes it for our development.

The conversation examines how Jung's model of psychic energy may have influenced Deleuze and Guattari's reconceptualization of desire in Anti-Oedipus, particularly in the shift from a repressed, Oedipal unconscious to a dynamic model of desiring-production. Jung's tensions with Freud, his engagement with myth, and the role of archetypes as energetic processes rather than static typologies are central to the discussion, as is the way his work has been co-opted and misrepresented by figures like Jordan Peterson. The group also unpacks Jung's connections to Spinoza, his late-career interest in synchronicity, and how his Red Book offers a more radical and experiential engagement with the unconscious than his later, more systematized theories suggest.

February 2, 2025 | Breakthrough | Luke 18:1-14What does it take to find spiritual breakthrough in our lives?  Jesus teaches through two parables: the persistent widow and the humble tax collector, revealing the breakthrough prayer is marked by desperation, deep dependency on God, and total humility. We are called to pray earnestly and persistently, understanding that without God's intervention, we are hopeless. True breakthrough comes when we recognize our need for God and approach Him humbly, admitting we cannot do it on our own. As we pray for both personal and corporate breakthrough, we seek God's power, presence and provision to transform us and advance His kingdom.  Join us for our FAST: https://www.nbbctx.org/fast  Do you know JESUS? ⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠ Need PRAYER? ⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠ Support through GIVING: ⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

Full Text of ReadingsWednesday of the Third Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 319The Saint of the day is Servant of God Brother JuniperServant of God Brother Juniper's Story “Would to God, my brothers, I had a whole forest of such Junipers,” said Francis of this holy friar. We don't know much about Juniper before he joined the friars in 1210. Francis sent him to establish “places” for the friars in Gualdo Tadino and Viterbo. When Saint Clare was dying, Juniper consoled her. He was devoted to the passion of Jesus and was known for his simplicity. Several stories about Juniper in the Little Flowers of St. Francis illustrate his exasperating generosity. Once Juniper was taking care of a sick man who had a craving to eat pig's feet. This helpful friar went to a nearby field, captured a pig and cut off one foot, and then served this meal to the sick man. The owner of the pig was furious and immediately went to Juniper's superior. When Juniper saw his mistake, he apologized profusely. He also ended up talking this angry man into donating the rest of the pig to the friars! Another time Juniper had been commanded to quit giving part of his clothing to the half-naked people he met on the road. Desiring to obey his superior, Juniper once told a man in need that he couldn't give the man his tunic, but he wouldn't prevent the man from taking it either. In time, the friars learned not to leave anything lying around, for Juniper would probably give it away. He died in 1258 and is buried at Ara Coeli Church in Rome. Reflection What can we make of Juniper? He certainly seems to be the first of many Franciscan “characters.” No doubt some of the stories about him have improved considerably in the retelling. Although the stories about Juniper may seem a little quaint, his virtues were not. He was humble because he knew the truth about God, himself, and others. He was patient because he was willing to suffer in his following of Jesus. Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Jack Moraine continues our sermon series.

'Saint Anthony, the Father of monks, was born in Egypt in 251 of pious parents who departed this life while he was yet young. On hearing the words of the Gospel: "If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell what thou hast, and give to the poor" (Matt. 19:21), he immediately put it into action. Distributing to the poor all he had, and fleeing from all the turmoil of the world, he departed to the desert. The manifold temptations he endured continually for the space of twenty years are incredible. His ascetical struggles by day and by night, whereby he mortified the uprisings of the passions and attained to the height of dispassion, surpass the bounds of nature; and the report of his deeds of virtue drew such a multitude to follow him, that the desert was transformed into a city, while he became, so to speak, the governor, lawgiver, and master-trainer of all the citizens of this newly-formed city. But the cities of the world also enjoyed the fruit of his virtue. When the Christians were being persecuted and put to death under Maximinus in 312, he hastened to their aid and consolation. When the Church was troubled by the Arians, he went with zeal to Alexandria in 335 and struggled against them in behalf of Orthodoxy. During this time, by the grace of his words, he also turned many unbelievers to Christ.   'He began his ascetical life outside his village of Coma in Upper Egypt, studying the ways of the ascetics and holy men there, and perfecting himself in the virtues of each until he surpassed them all. Desiring to increase his labours, he departed into the desert, and finding an abandoned fortress in the mountain, he made his dwelling in it, training himself in extreme fasting, unceasing prayer, and fierce conflicts with the demons. Here he remained, as mentioned above, about twenty years. Saint Athanasius the Great, who knew him personally and wrote his life, says that he came forth from the fortress "initiated in the mysteries and filled with the Spirit of God." Afterwards, because of the press of the faithful, who deprived him of his solitude, he was enlightened by God to journey with certain Bedouins, until he came to a mountain in the desert near the Red Sea, where he passed the remaining part of his life. Saint Athanasius says of him that "his countenance had a great and wonderful grace. This gift also he had from the Saviour. For if he were present in a great company of monks, and any one who did not know him previously wished to see him, immediately coming forward he passed by the rest, and hurried to Anthony, as though attracted by his appearance. Yet neither in height nor breadth was he conspicuous above others, but in the serenity of his manner and the purity of his soul."   'So passing his life, and becoming an example of virtue and a rule for monastics, he reposed on January 17 in the year 356, having lived together some 105 years.' (Great Horologion)   Speaking of the demonic temptations and struggles with the passions that beset those who seek their salvation, St Anthony said: "All these trials are to your advantage. Do away with temptation and no one will be saved."

As we kickstart 2025, episode 51 welcomes Father Bob Kraig, a priest in the Cleveland Catholic Diocese for over 50 years and a profound role model for living a life full of purpose. During our conversation, Kraig shares vulnerable stories about his relationship with God and why we all ought to dive into one of our own. In essence, faith is the cornerstone for embracing the messiness of our lives, and the rooting of ourselves in gratitude allows us to see God in our daily lives. For anyone desiring peace, stability, the "rock" in our lives, grace, joy, abundance, considering the topics of episode 51 is worthwhile.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "The Secret Miracle" which can be found in Collected Fictions. It focuses on the author Jaromir Hladík who is captured by the Nazis in their invasion of Czechoslovakia, and sentenced to death. Desiring to finish his play The Enemies, which he hopes will vindicate his existence, he prays to God to give him one more year to do so. As he is about to be executed, time stops for the external world, and he is able to continue his composition of the play from memory.

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of the holiday season? Let's take a moment to pause, reflect, and focus on the simple joys of life. Gratitude matters and it is more than just a fleeting feeling of thankfulness. It's a powerful practice that can transform your life. By cultivating gratitude, you can: Reduce stress and anxiety: Focusing on the positive aspects of your life can help ease stress and anxiety. Improve your physical health: Studies have shown that gratitude can boost your immune system, lower blood pressure, and improve sleep quality. Enhance your relationships: Expressing gratitude to loved ones can strengthen your bonds and deepen your connections. Increase your overall happiness: By focusing on what you have, rather than what you lack, you can cultivate a greater sense of happiness and fulfillment. Practical Tips to Practice Gratitude Keep a gratitude journal: Write down three things you're grateful for each day. Meditate on gratitude: Spend a few minutes each day focusing on the things you're grateful for. Express gratitude to others: Let people know how much you appreciate them. Volunteer your time: Giving back to your community can boost your sense of gratitude. Practice mindfulness: Pay attention to the present moment and appreciate the small things. I invite you to join us in a gratitude challenge. For the next week, commit to practicing gratitude daily. Share your experiences and reflections with us on social media using the hashtag #Gr8ful. Let's inspire each other to live a life of gratitude and joy. Don't forget to tag me @biancaolthoff. Wishing you a blessed and grateful holiday season! B RESOURCES/LINKS Takeaways Thanksgiving is a time to embrace gratitude. Desiring more can lead to emptiness and dissatisfaction. Gratitude is a powerful tool for joy and fulfillment. Practicing gratitude can transform our lives. Contentment is not wanting more, but appreciating what we have. Complaining can destroy our sense of gratitude. Gratitude should be a daily practice, not just a holiday sentiment. We are responsible for cultivating our own gratitude. Sharing our gratitude with others enhances its impact.
