On this recording, God's booming voice makes an appearance during a heavy thunderstorm, so apologies in advance for the sound quality around the 9 to 12 minute mark before we retreated and headed downstairs. All efforts have been made to clean up the audio so that you can still follow Russ's teaching.

End Times Part I: How Close Are We? | Pastor Travis Hearn | Impact Church What if we're closer than we think? In this powerful and eye-opening message, Pastor Travis Hearn launches a brand new series exploring the signs of the End Times—and what the Bible truly says about the days we're living in. With headlines echoing biblical prophecy, global chaos increasing, and spiritual deception rising, many are asking: How close are we? Through Matthew 24, Daniel 12, and 1 Thessalonians 4, Pastor Travis reveals what Jesus and the prophets foretold: a time marked by wars and rumors of wars, false messiahs, moral collapse, and a knowledge explosion unlike anything in history. From bizarre rapture predictions to the surge of spiritual confusion, this message separates truth from fiction and anchors us in God's unshakable Word. This isn't about fear. It's about preparation. It's not a countdown to panic—it's a wake-up call to purpose. With passion and urgency, this message challenges us to: * Discern deception in a distracted world * Stay spiritually alert while others drift * Share the gospel with urgency and boldness * Live ready for the return of Jesus Christ As the clock of eternity ticks louder, the question isn't if Jesus is coming back. It's are you ready? Don't miss Part 1 of this timely and prophetic series.

Some musicians do better with chaos. Others under deadlines and with teams. Tristan Clopet is a rare pro who's done both, and because of it knows the value of working towards a greater goal with a big team (and bigger pressure).Tristan's prolific work on film and TV scores gives him a deep insight into the nature of that side of the industry (and how different it is from his touring days supporting X Ambassadors, Billy Bragg, Tove Lo, Glen Hansard, and The Weeknd). It's a collaborative, deadline-oriented, large effort, with hundreds of creatives contributing to the final work. He shares how inspiring that journey is, and how knowing the boundaries can unlock even more creativity. I loved his story about scoring to Martin Freeman's solo acting in a car. (Martin Freeman happens to be one of my favorite actors.)His credits include:Sony Pictures Television's StartUp, created by Ben Ketai and starring Martin Freeman, Ron Perlman, Adam Brody, Mira Sorvino, and Edi Gathegi. In 2020, Netflix licensed all three seasons and it quickly became the streamer's #1 acquired series around the world.The Universal Studios feature film River Wild, for which he earned an HMMA nomination.The Infiltrator, starring Bryan Cranston, City of Lies, starring Johnny Depp and Forest Whitaker, Sundance Film Festival winner Crown Heights, starring LaKeith Stanfield, AMC's Pantheon, with Brandon Roberts, Marco Beltrami, and Buck Sanders, and CBS's military procedural The Code.For 30% off your first year of DistroKid to share your music with the world click DistroKid.com/vip/lovemusicmoreSubscribe to this pod's blog on Substack to receive deeper dives on the regular

Everyone has advice on content. Not everyone has discernment.In this solo, I'm sharing how I filter business advice, why editing is the unsung power move in video, and how creative business owners can stop hiding behind “good enough.”We talk mindset first, mechanics second. I'll show you how a few intentional edits can lift your video impact, showcase your creative identity, and make your brand feel proud and premium without spending hours in software. Think story beats, cuts with purpose, sound that supports the message, and visuals that feel like you.If you're done with bare minimum and ready to step into the spotlight with work you're proud to put your name on, this is your push.

In Episode 2 of Season 6, Shane Pruitt, Paul Worcester, and Lacey Villasenor explore the hot topic of artificial intelligence. AI is reshaping the way the world thinks, plans, and communicates, but is it a tool pastors should leverage or a danger to be avoided? Next-gen leaders will gain insight into how to approach AI with wisdom, use it with integrity, and disciple students already engaging with it daily. Hear stories, practical examples, and biblical reminders to keep Christ at the center of the cultural AI conversation. Also in this episode: Discern how AI can assist in streamlining administrative tasks, planning trips, or creating resources—ultimately freeing leaders to focus more on the students they serve. Warn students about the dangers of relying on AI for truth, identity, or belonging, reminding them that only Christ can provide real hope. Address tough questions directly, like whether AI-generated pornography or avatars still fall under lust and sin, so students don't look elsewhere for answers. Guard your own integrity as a leader by avoiding shortcuts in sermon prep and letting your teaching overflow from personal time with God's Word. Discover how to use AI as a practice tool for evangelism by simulating gospel conversations that can help prepare students for real-life encounters.

Ephesians 5:6 says, “Let no one deceive you with empty arguments.” And wow—don't we see that all over the health and fitness world?Messages like:❌ “Perimenopause and menopause have to suck.”❌ “This supplement is the only way you'll survive this season.”❌ “The shot is the only way to finally lose weight.”These are nothing but empty arguments that keep women fearful, frustrated, and chasing quick fixes.But God has a better plan. His Word reminds us that our bodies were created with purpose and that true healing, peace, and strength come when we align with His original design—not the enemy's lies or the world's marketing tactics.In this episode, I'm encouraging you to:✨ Discern truth from deception.✨ Stop believing every health headline or flashy promise.✨ Anchor yourself in God's wisdom for how your body was designed to work.When we stop chasing empty promises and start walking in God's truth, we not only steward our health better—we find peace, freedom, and strength that no “fix” can offer.Let's stop being deceived by the noise of the world and instead tune our hearts to the voice of the One who designed us.I am always love to connect with you!Don't hesitate to reach out!Personal Instagram: @racheljmitchellPodcast Instagram: @livingonmissionpodEmail: rachel@racheljmitchell.comJoin my next six week round of coaching!
