The Uncut Podcast with Beatrice, Tammy & Sharon!Make sure you follow our page and like, comment, and share this episode with your friends and family if you enjoyed it!It Takes A Village is a year-long national campaign led by Adesayo “Simply Sayo” Talabi in partnership with the NHS. The goal is to recruit 16,000 new blood donors from Black heritage backgrounds to help meet the urgent demand for better-matched blood for patients living with sickle cell disorder. The first Blood Drive will take place on 25 September 2025, Brixton with a mission to inspire 16,000 new Black heritage donors to register and give blood. Sickle cell is the fastest growing inherited condition in the UK. The best-matched blood for patients often has the RO subtype, 10x more common in people of Black heritage. Demand for Black heritage donors has risen by 50%, but many patients still receive less-than-ideal matches. Patients with sickle cell may need blood from up to 100 donors every year.Register to donate via Sayo's campaign link:https://bit.ly/it-takes-a-village-simply-sayoFollow Sayo for updates:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/simplysayo/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@simply_sayo?lang=enYouTube: https://x.com/Simply_SayoFor extra, EXCLUSIVE content every single week subscribe to our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/THEUNCUTPODCASTSend us your dilemma here: https://uncutpodcast.komi.ioFollow us on our personal Instagram accounts:Beatrice - https://www.instagram.com/beatriceakn/Tammy - https://www.instagram.com/tammymontero/Sharon - https://www.instagram.com/sharonodu/OUR SPOTIFY PLAYLIST: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/40twtNh14y2qomPUPuFlj8?si=4d3340a1c2de4719OUR APPLE MUSIC PLAYLIST: https://music.apple.com/gb/playlist/bts-song-of-the-week/pl.u-RRbVY4RueR8gyGConnect with us:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theuncutpodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theuncutpodcast_X: https://x.com/theuncutpodcastSnapchat: https://www.snapchat.com/add/theuncutpodcastWhatsapp Channels: https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vao6ZsWId7nFFpo3A83X?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaaTn0l6nmk6QCRy7hwbPt7ArWIT91nSJw4wgMKEw9RO-QQppHQ1yhTmzq0_aem_mH5QBC-N5WKGzQ54BLrHjA Hosted on Acast.

Message regarding how we as Believers have a need for the LORD GOD's discernment to help expose any wickedness we may have within. Scriptural Reference: Psalms 139:23-24

I Corinthians 12:4-13 Following the summer time of gifts discernment, each September Raleigh Mennonite recognizes the many volunteers who help make the church function. This Sunday Susan provided a brief overview of church history and how Mennonites incorporated the concept of the "priesthood of all believers" as a fundamental tenet of our faith and community life together. The idea is that not only can we communicate with and have direct access to God, but that there are indeed no roles that are the exclusive domain of the clergy. And as we read in I Corinthians 12, all roles are important, and we all have to use our God-given gifts together for the church to thrive. When we use our gifts, or graces, it energizes us. At the same time, we need to check our perceptions of our gifts with others and listen for the affirmation of others in helping us see the gifts that we might have and be called to use. That's where discernment comes in.

Do you ever feel like Bible reading has become routine? Maybe life’s distractions, spiritual fatigue, or lack of inspiration have dulled your passion for God’s Word. But Scripture reminds us that “the word of God is living and active” (Hebrews 4:12)—it’s not just words on a page, but a divine conversation meant to transform our hearts. Joe Navarro, known online as @joechristianguy encourages us in today's prayer and devotional to approach the Bible not as a chore, but as a gift from our loving Father. By asking God to renew our desire for His Word, experimenting with new ways of study, and remembering that Scripture is for transformation, not just information, we can rediscover joy in meeting God daily through His truth. Main Takeaways God’s Word is living and active—it has power to refresh our weary souls. Prayer is the starting point: ask God to rekindle your hunger for Scripture. Changing your approach—like trying a new translation, using audio Bible, or joining a group—can spark renewed excitement. Bible study is not just about knowledge, but about transformation. Delight, not obligation, is what God desires for us as we engage His Word. Bible Verse References Hebrews 4:12 – God’s Word is living and active. Psalm 119:18 – Open my eyes to see wondrous things in Your law.

Reiki awakens intuition and helps you trust your inner guidance in both subtle and profound ways. In this Distance Reiki Share, Colleen and Robyn explore how Reiki opens the clairsenses, expands the heart light, and teaches discernment so you can recognize your unique intuitive style. Reiki shows us that everyone has intuitive ability. Some may see images, others feel sensations, hear words, or simply know. These differences are natural, and Reiki helps you discover and strengthen your own way of receiving guidance. Reiki heals the blocks that may hide the power of your intuition from you. The Reiki energy provides the frequency that allows intuitive impressions to grow stronger, and over time you learn to trust them in daily life. In this video you'll learn: * How Reiki activates intuition through your whole body.  * Reiki entrains your head brain, heart brain and gut brain to your higher consciousness   * Simple ways to notice whether your intuition comes through sight, sound, feeling, or knowing * How to recognize your clair senses without comparison or judgment * Practical discernment tips to observe energy rather than absorb it Robyn and Colleen were recently at that Sedona Reiki retreat and shared their experiences with the extra-ordinary beauty of Sedona, through the red rocks, sage green plant life, Juniper trees and the nature of the land and how Reiki entrains you to higher frequencies wherever you are, whether in nature, at home, or in your everyday routines.

Pastor John teaches Christians how to use judgment in today's world.

In this episode, I unpack three big themes that show up again and again in spiritual work—judgment, discernment, and projection. We'll sort through what each one really means, why it matters, and how to catch yourself (and others) when old patterns sneak in.I'll talk about the difference between judgment and discernment, the drain of trauma dumping, and how projection shapes our interactions. We'll also look at boundaries—why they're not selfish, and how to hold them without guilt or pressure.Along the way, I share some practical reminders for staying aligned as a healer, and how to choose connection over being “right.” We'll close with a short healing session to bring the insights home and leave you in a place of calm and clarity.Timestamps: ⏰00:00 – Welcome and Introduction00:23 – Brunch Anecdote and Pancake Rant01:22 – Understanding Trauma Dumping02:30 – Judgment vs. Discernment04:59 – Projection and Its Impact07:08 – Setting Boundaries as a Healer08:37 – Prioritizing Self-Care and Alignment15:32 – The Importance of Inner Peace16:08 – Closing Thoughts and Healing Session

It does not take long for tens of thousands to take a hold of these messages becoming convinced of their validity and truth because of external signs and confirmations. Lately there has been a message that has gone epically viral regarding the timing of the day of the Rapture. The dates fall on the 23rd or the 25th of September depending on the timing of the Feast of Trumpets. Many are convinced it will be so. Since the first time I listened to the video I have spent time in much prayer and meditating on it. I have gone over the details of the information asking God about it and I have never received a witness of it as of yet. What is most important to me above everything external is the witness of the Holy Spirit within my own spirit and not looking for outward signs. I do not trust outward signs especially these days of perilous deception. However, there are times that are appropriate that we must ask God to show us a sign for something in regard to critical choices needing to be made. It is of tantamount and critical importance to me in a deeply personal way that what is to be believed and accepted must be inwardly verified by God irrefutably. IF the rapture happens on or around those days then it will be wonderful, and I will be thrilled to go. But if not, then there must be a readiness to continue on as faithfully as before with joy until it happens. These are my quiet humble expressions relating to these things respectively."Always keep a quiet heart."- Elisabeth Elliot

SEND US A MESSAGE! We'd Love to Chat With you and Hear your thoughts! We'll read them on the next episode. We are preparing to do an episode on popular YouTuber, Journalist and Podcaster,  ⁨Candace Owens and the reception she receives form the populace.  We think we need to lay some ground work. Are Christians aware of how discipled we've been in a culture of scoffers?  Are Christians aware that we live in a society that has trained us to never be concerned with what is true and to only be concerned with what our "team" thinks? What does the bible have to say about this type of behavior?In this episode, we discuss the heart of a scoffer through a biblical lens and we hopefully lay some foundation for why we should care about the things that Candace Owens and many others talk about, whether or not you agree with their take on the matter. Support the showHosts: Brandon and Daren Smith Learn of Brandon's Church Planting CallPatreon: www.patreon.com/blackandblurredPaypal: https://paypal.me/blackandblurredYouTube: Black and Blurred PodcastIG: @BlackandBlurredPodcastX: @Blurred_Podcast

Ryan Swanson introduces The Cord 2.0, highlighting two big additions—Check‑In Streaks (consistency‑focused medals) and bi‑weekly 3‑minute devotional challenges—and explains why accountability tools are meant to lead us to Jesus, not replace Him as the answer. He also unpacks motivations (relationships, ministry, family) and shows how these secondary motives should funnel us back to Christ as the true source of purity and victory. You'll also hear a refresher on The Cord's core features like daily 1–10 check‑ins, 90‑second video reflections, and the SOS button rooted in Ecclesiastes 4:10 (never alone).Topics DiscussedWhy The Cord exists: daily light and never‑alone accountability (Ecc. 4)How daily 1–10 check‑ins + 90‑sec videos keep it sustainableSOS button: instant “I'm not alone” signaling during temptationThe Cord 2.0 Feature #1 – Check‑In Streaks (consistency over “purity streaks,” with medals at 7/30/100 days and beyond)The Cord 2.0 Feature #2 – Bi‑weekly 3‑minute devotional challenges (trusted preachers; keeps groups Christ‑focused)Motivation vs. the Answer: letting strong motives lead you to Jesus, not replace HimKey TakeawaysAccountability is a means, not the end; Jesus is both the end and the means of purity.The Cord 2.0's Check‑In Streaks reward consistency, closing the “skip‑a‑bad‑day” loophole and keeping daily light on your heart.Short, bi‑weekly devotionals inject life and keep the focus on Christ so groups don't drift into a “dry confessional booth.”The SOS button helps you refuse isolation: you're known, prayed for, and expected to give account—tonight.Ready to download the Cord App?

Sermon Summary:In our exploration of Psalm 23, we discover that being led by our Good Shepherd requires one essential skill: learning to hear his voice. Just as sheep instinctively recognize and follow their shepherd's call, we must develop our ability to discern God's voice in our daily lives.David's declaration that "The LORD is my shepherd" reveals a deeply personal relationship with Yahweh, the covenant God who knows our names and cares for us individually. The psalm's imagery of green pastures and quiet waters points to a Shepherd who actively guides us to places of rest and refreshment, but only if we're listening for his direction.Jesus modeled this perfectly, doing only what he saw the Father doing and speaking only what he heard the Father saying. This divine communication happens in what we might call our imagination - the place where God's Spirit meets our spirit. Our imagination becomes the inner sanctuary where we encounter God's promptings and guidance.The challenge is learning to validate these divine nudges rather than dismissing them as "just our thoughts." When loving, kingdom-minded promptings arise, we need the courage to let them interrupt our plans. This requires walking through life with our spiritual walkie-talkie on, maintaining a listening posture throughout our day.Discernment comes through Scripture, examining the fruit of our actions, and aligning with Jesus' character. We're called to move beyond mere sin management to embrace the abundant life that comes from following the Shepherd's voice step by step along paths of righteousness.URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urfellowship/➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/urfellowship

Jeannette talks about achieving sustainable success without succumbing to burnout, candidly discussing the glorification of hustle culture and the misconception that burnout is a badge of honour Jeannette explains why: It's essential to recognise burnout as a warning sign that indicates the need for a new approach to success Sustainable success involves knowing when to take action and when to pause. Discernment, which is a leadership superpower, helps align actions with strategic goals rather than reacting out of stress. Instead of adhering to a hustle culture that glorifies constant work, adopt a rhythm that includes periods of rest and recovery. Successful individuals plan for rest just as they plan for work, allowing for a more balanced approach to productivity. A compelling vision must be supported by vitality, which includes physical energy, mental clarity, and emotional resilience Subscribe to Brave Bold Brilliant for weekly wisdom on leadership, legacy, and living boldly.

We have inclinations and urgings all day long, but where do they come from? Is that God speaking to us or Satan? Or maybe neither, instead the world's voice trying to influence us, or it's simply our self. How do we know? Discernment is possible, but it takes a little work.
