e328 Spiritual Seasons, Desolation Desperation, The Cross Matters by Paul George

Oftentimes, when I'm in my coaching groups, I hear time and time again that clients are still clutching onto their Plan B, their backup plan, their safety net in case they fail. Well, in today's video, I'm preaching something different. This video is urging the entrepreneurs who have a safety net to tear it down, and adopt the feeling of having nowhere else to turn, nothing to fall back on, and completely all in on the hopes and dreams for their business. That perceived desperation, that sense of urgency, might actually be one of the best things that can happen to you.

"Desperation" Part 3 by Matthew Schlesinger

Feeling like everything's spiralling out of control, and you're about to lose it? Desperation makes everything feel like an emergency… even when it's not. That desperate energy sets your thoughts racing, your heart pounding, and suddenly you find you're reacting instead of responding. But here's the truth: feeling desperate doesn't mean you're broken or weak. It just means your nervous system is overloaded, and your brain is screaming for relief. So let's explore what's involved in overcoming desperation. In this episode of the Let's Talk About Mental Health podcast I'll break down what desperation really is, why it hijacks your thinking, and — most importantly — how to interrupt the spiral before it takes over. You'll learn practical strategies to ground yourself, manage the panic, and respond with clarity instead of chaos.If you've ever thought “I can't take this anymore,” this one's for you. Because you don't need to escape that feeling; you just need to stop letting it control your next move.

In this episode of the UnabridgedMD Podcast, Dr. Isabelle Amigues sits down with Holly Gould to share her remarkable story of struggle, perseverance, and healing. After seeing more than a dozen doctors who couldn't provide answers, Holly felt she might never find relief. She recalls telling her husband, “If this person can't help me, I'll just have to live like this.” Out of options, she turned to Google—and that search led her to Dr. Amigues.Together, they explore what it means to be truly heard in a medical setting, how documenting every symptom—big and small—was key to unlocking proper treatment, and why compassionate follow-up, like Dr. Amigues' personal check-in call one week later, made all the difference. Holly describes how the right medication helped her day-to-day pain and how, for the first time in years, she sees a hopeful path toward remission.The conversation also highlights Dr. Amigues' philosophy: “Sometimes you can be a lot better, but it's not perfect. I want more than just a lot better.” For her, remission is always the goal—and fighting for her patients means never settling for less.Whether you're living with chronic illness, searching for a doctor who truly listens, or simply looking for hope in the healing journey, this episode offers compassion, empowerment, and a reminder that doctors who care are doctors who heal.Topics Covered:Why being truly heard matters in patient careThe turning point when Holly nearly gave up hopeHow documenting every symptom led to answersThe impact of personal follow-up calls from a doctorDr. Amigues' mission to help every patient reach remissionShifting from “just getting by” to true healingTune in to discover how persistence, compassion, and advocacy create the foundation for real healing—and why patients deserve more than “just a little better.”Thank you to special guest, Holly Gould, for sharing her story. Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hollygould_realtor/

In this episode, we dive into the story of a woman whose desperation to get married led her down a dangerous path filled with compromises, poor choices, and painful consequences. Using the movie as a springboard, we explore how wanting something too much—especially from a place of fear or pressure—can cloud judgment and push people into situations that hurt more than they help. We unpack the subtle traps of desperation, why it rarely delivers what we hope for, and how to recognize when desire crosses into dangerous territory. Most importantly, we encourage listeners to anchor their desires in trusting God's timing, staying prayerful, and being watchful, so they don't fall into desperation's snare.

"Desperation" Part 1 by Matthew Schlesinger

Bryan Kohberger's Calls to “Mother” and Christmas Day Serial Killer Search EXPOSED Within hours of the Idaho student murders, Bryan Kohberger called his mother — not once, but repeatedly — for conversations totaling over three hours that day. He addressed his parents formally as “Mother” and “Father,” even texting, “Father, why is Mother not answering?” Was this routine? Desperation? Or an emotional tether to the only people who might never question him? Weeks later, on Christmas Day, Kohberger sat down and researched more than 20 serial killers — with a particular focus on Danny Rolling, the Gainesville Ripper. Rolling's crimes bore unsettling similarities to the Idaho murders: KA-BAR knife, sliding-door entry, and a focus on college students. By then, Kohberger had been stopped twice on his drive home, was gloving up to bag trash, and knew police were looking for his car. Was this paranoia-driven damage control, or a compulsive “copycat” study session? Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to connect these two behaviors. From emotional anchors and routine-seeking to mimicry of notorious killers, we explore how Kohberger's post-crime actions reveal a man more concerned with validation and borrowed identity than originality. #BryanKohberger #Idaho4 #DannyRolling #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #CriminalPsychology #SerialKillerResearch #IdahoMurders #BehavioralAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

SummaryIn this episode, Sean and Terry discuss the alarming prevalence of embezzlement in medical practices, particularly focusing on the role of family dynamics and the importance of compliance and auditing. Terry shares a recent experience where she uncovered significant embezzlement in a client's practice, emphasizing the need for vigilance and proper oversight in financial practices. The conversation highlights the necessity of implementing robust auditing processes and being aware of the potential for fraud, especially in family-run medical offices.TakeawaysEmbezzlement in medical practices is alarmingly common.Family members in administrative roles can pose a risk for fraud.Regular audits are essential for financial oversight.Providers must be proactive in monitoring their finances.Desperation can lead individuals to commit fraud.The first instance of theft often leads to more.Healthcare practices need to treat patients with respect.Compliance programs should be regularly reviewed and updated.It's crucial to have clear processes for financial transactions.Trust but verify: always keep an eye on financial practices.

Tara and Lee claim to have found two major signs of Democrat desperation. First, they report that 1.5 million illegal immigrants have "self-deported," attributing this to a new program that offers a free flight and a $1,000 bonus to those who voluntarily leave. In response, they argue, a federal judge has ordered the "Alligator Alcatraz" detention center to be shut down and destroyed to prevent its use for deportations. Second, Tara and Lee discuss an ongoing investigation into a massive financial scandal. They claim that the EPA, under the previous administration, funneled $20 billion in taxpayer money to politically aligned NGOs and "pass-through entities." The hosts describe this as outright "theft" and "fraud" meant to fund Democratic campaigns. They interpret a recent video from Stacey Abrams as a sign that she is scared and is anticipating an indictment related to this alleged crime.

The hosts discuss what they see as "Democrat desperation," beginning with a federal judge's order to shut down the "Alligator Alcatraz" immigration detention facility. They claim the move is a politically motivated effort to prevent the deportation of illegal immigrants who are "future Democrat voters." The hosts also praise Senator Marco Rubio's suspension of truck driving licenses for foreigners, citing a recent fatal accident involving an illegal immigrant driver and arguing that the policy will protect American lives and create jobs for American truckers. The conversation shifts to cultural issues, focusing on Cracker Barrel's stock drop after a logo change. The hosts attribute the company's financial loss to a "woke" CEO who they believe caved to social pressure by removing a white man from the logo, which they frame as an attack on American culture. Finally, the hosts celebrate reports that millions of illegal immigrants are "self-deporting" in response to new government policies and a program offering them a free "exit bonus." They conclude with a personal note expressing concern for Donald Trump's health, urging him to slow down his work pace.

Israel launches Operation Gideon's Chariots II in Gaza, Hamas pushes false ceasefires, Abbas drafts a constitution, and prophecy continues to unfold.

Will this be enough to draw customers back amidst declining sales figures?

“Habit eats willpower for breakfast.” As the apostle Paul says in Romans 7, we do the evil we don't want to do, and we don't do the good we want to do. Pastor and author John Ortberg joins Mark Labberton on Conversing to discuss his latest book Steps: A Guide to Transforming Your Life When Willpower Isn't Enough. Drawing on decades of pastoral ministry, the wisdom of the Twelve Steps, and the profound influence of Dallas Willard, Ortberg explores the limits of willpower, the gift of desperation, and the hope of genuine transformation. With humour, honesty, and depth, he reflects on why human will is insufficient, why churches struggle to embody desperation, and how communities of honesty and grace can become places of real healing. Episode Highlights “Habit eats willpower for breakfast.” “The first step is a deeply despairing step. I can't, and it feels like hell and death—and that opens people up to God.” “If you have a wimpy step one, you will have wimpy steps two through twelve.” “Desperation really is a gift.” “Failure and pain so often become helps in our meeting God.” Helpful Links and Resources Find more from John Ortberg at becomenew.com John Ortberg, Steps: A Guide to Transforming Your Life When Willpower Isn't Enough Dallas Willard, Renovation of the Heart Kent Dunnington, Addiction and Virtue: Beyond the Models of Disease and Choice Stephen R. Haynes, Why Can't Church Be More Like an AA Meeting? About John Ortberg John Ortberg is a pastor, speaker, and bestselling author dedicated to spiritual formation and transformation. He served as senior pastor at Menlo Church from 2003 to 2020, and has written numerous books, including The Life You've Always Wanted and Faith & Doubt. He studied at Wheaton College and Fuller Theological Seminary and has been a trustee at Fuller. His most recent book, Steps: A Guide to Transforming Your Life When Willpower Isn't Enough, reframes the Twelve Steps as a wisdom tradition for all seeking deeper life with God. Show Notes The Nature of Willpower and Habit John Ortberg reflects on Dallas Willard's framework for understanding persons. “Habit eats willpower for breakfast.” The human will is essential, but terrifically weak when confronting sin, ego, or deep habits. The Gift of Desperation and the Twelve Steps First step: “We admitted we were powerless.” “The first step is a deeply despairing step. I can't, and it feels like hell and death—and that opens people up to God.” Desperation becomes a gateway to spiritual power. “If you have a wimpy step one, you will have wimpy steps two through twelve.” Comparing church and AA Ortberg: “Desperation really is a gift.” The church often resists being a community of desperation. Honesty is not the same as desperation; both are needed for transformation. Why AA's structure works: fellowship plus program. “Failure and pain so often become helps in our meeting God.” Storytelling and Transformation Testimonies and stories at the center of AA's power. Why narrative makes meaning for human life. “Story is the essential unit of meaning for personhood.” Spiritual Practices and Confession Step 5: “Confess to God, ourselves, and one other person the exact nature of our wrongs.” John recalls confessing to a close friend: “John, I love you more right now than I've ever loved you before.” The liberating power of being fully known and loved. Addiction, Sin, and Disease The debate: is addiction a disease, a habitus, or sin? Disease language reduces shame but risks erasing agency. The overlap of sin, brokenness, and habit. The challenge of shame, judgment, and superiority in church contexts. Fellowship and Program “If you have program but not fellowship, you're dead. If you have fellowship but not program, there is no hope.” AA as a model for church life: communal honesty plus concrete practices. The gospel calls for grace-filled action, not passivity. Production Credits Conversing is produced and distributed in partnership with Comment magazine and Fuller Seminary.
