ITP - 134 A huge welcome to Rita Bateson of Eblana Learning, who unpacks the real-world mess and magic of AI in education. She takes listeners through her globe-trotting career from Dublin to Rome, Bermuda, Germany, and the IB, weaving in how AI is reshaping classrooms, assessment, teacher workload, academic integrity, and student habits. Rita explains the Overton Window of AI discourse, why teachers need both AI literacy and healthy skepticism, and how schools can balance innovation with ethics, sustainability, and good old-fashioned human expertise.The hosts dig into critical thinking, cognitive offloading, phone-free schools, environmental costs of AI, and why students' inch-wide, mile-deep use of AI demands that teachers develop broader understanding. Rita also shares the mission behind Eblana Learning, their AI curriculum, PD academy, and her drive to support leaders navigating AI without panic or techno-worship. Add in some delightfully unhinged international misadventure stories (Swiss banks, English “interpreter” classes), and you've got an episode loaded with insight, humor, and brutally honest guidance for teachers worldwide.Rita is a Cofounder of Eblana LearningThe full link is https://eblanalearning.com/If you need Rita as an Italian interpreter, here is her LinkedIN profile link.

I discuss concepts of discernment and defining 'enough' for yourself by creating personal rules that increase confidence and self-trust. By recognizing your body's signals or cues and setting flexible guidelines, you can make decisions that align with your values and capacity while still making progress on your goals.If you liked what you heard, check episode 333 on how to set goals you'll actually keep and episode 96 on three strategies to exceed not just meet your goals. Learn more about my coaching services here and get on the waitlist for my group coaching pods here.Get your free copy of my Grad School Femtoring Resource Kit ⁠here⁠.I'm excited to share a trailer for the Latine ADHD podcast, hosted by Dr. Janice Castro — a Licensed Psychologist creating a warm, inclusive space where cultura and ADHD intersect.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan Rittenhouse and Cameron McAllister tackle the phenomenon of fake outrage in Christian culture—using the reaction to Taylor Swift's Life of a Showgirl as a jumping-off point. With deep theological reflection and cultural insight, Nathan and Cameron explore why outrage has become a form of identity-building within the church and beyond, how scapegoating and virtue signaling distort genuine moral concern, and what it means for Christians to live wisely in a world shaped by Babylon and Vanity Fair. This thoughtful conversation challenges believers to pursue discernment, truth, and humility rather than reactionary culture wars. Perfect for Christians seeking intelligent, biblical discussions on faith, culture, and current events.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

This week, I wanted to dive deeper into something that came up from our last conversation about unburdening ourselves as we head toward the end of the year. One of our Striders reached out and said, "I love that word discernment, but sometimes I struggle with knowing when I'm releasing something for my own good and when I'm just isolating." That question really resonated with me because I've been there too with trying to figure out if I'm stepping back for clarity or pulling away out of self-protection. So in this episode, we're exploring what it means to practice discernment versus isolation, and how both can show up in our lives. There have been times when I've had to hit pause and really tune in to what my own voice was saying. These are moments when I needed quiet to think, to breathe, to just be with myself. There have also been times when pulling back for a bit was the kindest thing I could do. That space wasn't about pushing people away. It was about giving myself room to reset. When we bring a little more awareness, intention, and compassion to those moments, it changes everything. It helps us reflect instead of react. Since the holidays are coming, with all the emotions they tend to stir up, it feels like the perfect time to notice what we're running toward and what we might be running from. The pauses we take can either drain us or refuel us, so let's be mindful of which kind we're choosing. On today's Wise Walk we'll see how discernment can help us reemerge stronger, clearer, and more connected than before. As you reflect on your life, are there times when you know you need to take a step back, step aside, or release something, and you feel that discernment guiding you? Do you recognize moments when you react, withdraw without reflection, or feel too overwhelmed to process what's happening? How can you hold space for both discernment and isolation and understand when each is serving you? Can you feel good about applying them when necessary, with the hope that both lead to deeper connection? Are you withdrawing without reflection, reacting out of hurt or defensiveness, or intentionally isolating to heal and protect yourself? Can you be aware of what's motivating your choice and what outcome you truly want? Are you stepping back to foster connection or pushing others away out of fear or exhaustion? Where in your life are you practicing healthy discernment that supports connection? Where might you be isolating without a plan for how to reemerge better? Are you running toward something that aligns with your growth or running away from something that feels hard to face? With that awareness, can you make new choices that bring you the support you need? Can you focus on what you're running toward and what you're running away from, and take action that helps you reemerge stronger? Do you sense when it's time to immerse yourself in community and when it's time to rest and recharge in solitude, knowing both can help you reemerge stronger?  I want to thank the Strider who reached out with that thoughtful question. It reminded me how powerful it is to pause, reflect, and check in with ourselves.  The holidays can stir up so much joy, nostalgia, and even heaviness. It's okay to take a step back when you need to. Until next week, please remember to listen to your heart, honor your energy, and always make space for fun along the way. In this episode: [03:05] I share Google's definition of discernment being the ability to make sound judgments through perception and wisdom. Isolation is the state of being alone or separate from others. [04:04] Sometimes when making a big decision, I would isolate myself from others, so I could reflect on my own voice. [05:26] Language can have different meanings, but when I was judged for isolation I was actually using discernment to look into my heart and find what's best for me. [06:08] The temporary timeout we give ourselves is good, because it allows us to re-emerge better. Discernment can foster connection when we find what's true to ourselves. [07:24] It's important for us to know the difference between isolating and searching for discernment. [08:04] We should also be aware of when our isolation is reactive. [09:22] The other day my aunt's horse, Blue, needed dental work. I had to take a step back because I have some trauma around dental work. [11:20] It's important for us to have discernment to navigate and flow with things that come up in life. [12:59] My goal is to emerge stronger and clearer. [13:32] Holidays can be hard emotionally for many different reasons. [16:03] Thank you to The Strider who asked this question. It was really helpful for me to self reflect on the differences between isolation and discernment.

Welcome to Wellthy Living ConversationsEP 73: DISCERNMENT AS A PRACTICE: MAKE CLEAR DECISIONS FOR LIFE AND WORK with guest Nathalie MartinekNathalie Martinek, PhD traded biological research for decoding toxic relationships and workplaces. Think of her as a guide through the minefields of personal relationships and modern professional life, equipping people with the knowledge and skills to interrupt dysfunctional patterns, relate better, and restore stability.Intro: We're living in an age where information and opinions come at us from every direction, yet clarity feels harder to find than ever. Discernment helps us cut through that noise, in our relationships, decisions, and the way we interpret the world around us. It's not about judgment or perfection; it's about developing the inner radar that helps us know what's true, what's safe, and what's aligned.Together, Nathalie and I unpack what discernment really looks like in practice: how we recognise it, why we override it, and what it costs and gives us when we finally trust it, so you can make decisions with clarity and confidence.We discuss:What discernment actually isWhy we struggle to trust our own discernmentHow culture, social media, and information overload cloud our clarityNathalie's Liberation Cycle: disrupt, extract, and release, a process that turns awareness into real changeHow discernment helps us protect our energy, set boundaries, and still stay open-heartedThe cost of choosing truth over belonging and how discernment can deepen connection rather than destroy itSimple, real-world ways to start practising discernment in daily lifeLinks & resources Find out more about guest Narhalie Martine: https://www.drnathaliemartinek.com/Read Nathalie's Substack article 'How to Develop Discernment' Nathalie's 'Hacking Narcissism' substack: https://www.hackingnarcissism.com/Discernment Series Reflective Reset Guides designed to help you pause, reflect, and practice discernment in real-life moments.

In this enchanted, electric episode 65 of Medium Curious, Sarah and Jane sit down with Zaneta Sykes—interdisciplinary sound artist, spirit medium, and creator of Art Witch and Invitations from the Land—for a journey into what it really means to be in relationship with the living world. Zaneta shares how bullying pushed them away from drums and into science… until a clear, external voice at a jam session said, “Go to music school.” That single piece of guidance rerouted everything—ultimately weaving together percussion, environmental science, psychic work, and spirit mediumship into one luminous, decolonial, more-than-human path. They walk us through encounters that feel like myth but land like proof: a dream of a giant white fox, a real-life meeting with an Eastern coyote, barred owls arriving on cue, an aunt in spirit validated by banana pudding and horn-rimmed glasses, and a land conservancy “randomly” inviting Zaneta to create a full forest soundscape project. Along the way, they unpack mediumship as relationship, witch as wise listener, and why the Earth herself is calling more of us to become bridges. This conversation is wild, grounded, funny, reverent, glitchy (hi, energy surge), and full-body-truth level inspiring. Key Takeaways Mediumship is relationship, not performance. It's an ongoing, two-way conversation with ancestors, spirits of place, animals, elements, and the unseen. The Earth is calling mediums. Zaneta shares guidance from the woods: mediumship is how we remember ourselves as nature and undo the illusion of separation. Signs are specific, not vague. Banana pudding, iconic glasses, perfectly-timed owls—clear, weird details help us trust what comes through. Your path can be multimodal. Music, science, magic, ancestry, and activism don't have to compete; they braid into a single, truthful life. Reverence is a practice. Singing to forests, rivers, and beings of place is less aesthetics, more consent, respect, and genuine reciprocity. Not every spirit (or human) gets access. Discernment matters. You don't have to call in everyone, every time. Slow is holy. Returning to the same land again and again—listening instead of extracting—is medicine in a culture obsessed with speed and productivity. “Witch” is reclamation. For Zaneta, it honors persecuted healers, matriarchs, and wisdom keepers, and names power as interconnectedness, not domination. Mediumship expands capacity. As Sarah offers, connecting with Spirit stretches what we can hold—and gives others permission to expand too. “Mediumship is not a trick. It's a relationship.” “The Earth is calling people to be mediums—so we remember we are nature, not separate from it.” “Not every being wants to be called in. Consent exists in the spirit world, too.” “Witch, to me, is someone willing to address the suffering of the world with sacred, grounded care.” “Power isn't something we own. It's something that moves through all of us when we're listening.” Music courtesy of Chris Dingman Sound art courtesy of Zaneta: Sound Art Magic Art Witch Podcast Sound Art Magic Instagram Join us on Substack for The Afterlife—bonus clips after the “mic is off” (wink).

Send us a textNews of Israel's victories spreads, and the people of Gibeon hatch a sneaky plan: they dress in worn-out clothes, carry crumbly bread, and pretend to be from far away so Joshua will make peace with them. The leaders look at the evidence, taste the bread—and forget to pray. Three days later, they discover the truth. Because they had promised safety, Israel keeps its word, and the Gibeonites become woodcutters and water carriers for God's house. This story teaches discernment, the importance of asking God for guidance, and why keeping our promises matters. Talk about it:Why did the Gibeonites pretend to be from a faraway country?What important step did Joshua and the leaders forget?Why did Israel keep its promise even after learning the truth?What jobs did the Gibeonites do afterward, and what can we learn from that?Visit our website: kathyskidsstorytime.orgWe'd love to hear from you.To reach us quickly, click the “Send us a text” link at the top of the episode description.Or write to us by mail:Kathy's Kids StorytimePO Box 44270Charlotte, NC 28215-0043

 You'll See These SignsA Divine Blueprint for Your BreakthroughYou may be in a season of waiting—a time when life feels stagnant, prayers seem unanswered, and uncertainty clouds your vision. But remember: God's silence is not His absence. Before a monumental blessing, He often prepares you through divine signs. Here's how to recognize them:1. Intensified Spiritual Warfare"The darkest hour is just before the dawn."    Suddenly, obstacles multiply. Relationships strain, health falters, or doubts scream louder.    This is not coincidence. The enemy senses your impending breakthrough and fights to derail it.    Stand firm: Like Joseph betrayed by his brothers or David facing Goliath, your trials are training for triumph.2. Divine Isolation"God removes to reposition."    Loved ones drift away. Familiar comforts vanish. You feel alone—but this is holy pruning.    Just as Moses needed wilderness solitude to lead Israel, your isolation is God's way of removing distractions and deepening your dependence on Him.    Trust the process: "People may walk away, but God is making space for what He's about to do".3. A Surge in Spiritual Hunger"You'll crave God like never before."    Prayer becomes oxygen. Scripture feels alive. You're drawn to worship even in exhaustion.    This hunger is God's preparation—He's equipping you to steward the blessing ahead.    Respond: Carve out quiet moments to listen. As Psalm 46:10 says, "Be still, and know that I am God".4. Unexpected Doors Open"Divine opportunities defy logic."    A random invitation. A sudden provision. Small steps that later reveal their purpose.    Step forward in faith: Like Joseph's prison cell leading to Pharaoh's court, God's path often looks illogical until the pieces align.5. Supernatural Peace Amidst Chaos"A quiet confidence you can't explain."    While circumstances rage, your spirit feels anchored. This is God's assurance that He's already written your victory.    Praise in advance: That inexplicable joy? It's a divine preview—start thanking God now for what's coming.The PromiseYour waiting has an expiration date. Every test, every tear, every lonely night is part of a master plan far greater than you imagine. As God told Joseph in the pit, David in the fields, and Israel in the wilderness:    "What the enemy meant for evil, I will use for good—to position you for purpose".Hold on. Your breakthrough isn't just coming—it's already on the way.Key Takeaways from Scripture & Stories:    Divine timing is perfect: The Israelites' 40-year wait for the Promised Land wasn't a delay—it was preparation.    Trials precede triumph: Jesus' 40 days in the wilderness preceded His ministry's launch.    Your story isn't over: Like the 15-year-old gymnast who won gold by staying present (from your earlier example), God rewards those who trust His process."Faith isn't believing God will do what you want. It's trusting Him even when He doesn't." — Billy Graham (paraphrased).When God Is Preparing You for a Breakthrough – Prayer & Action StepsA Prayer for Your Season of Waiting"Father, I thank You that even when I can't see Your hand, I trust Your heart. As I face spiritual battles, isolation, and uncertainty, remind me that these are signs of Your divine positioning. Strengthen my faith to stand firm. Prune away what no longer serves Your purpose for me. Ignite in me a hunger for Your presence like never before. Help me recognize the doors You open and walk through them with courage. Give me Your peace that surpasses understanding, knowing that what You have prepared for me is far greater than anything I've left behind. In Jesus' name, Amen."5 Action Steps to Partner with God's Process**1. When Warfare Intensifies → Put on Your Armor    Scripture Focus: Ephesians 6:10-18 (The Armor of God)    Action: Each morning, declare: "No weapon formed against me shall prosper" (Isaiah 54:17). Write down attacks (fear, doubt, opposition) and counter them with a Bible promise.**2. When You Feel Isolated → Lean into God's Presence    Scripture Focus: Psalm 23 ("The Lord is my shepherd")    Action: Start a "wilderness journal." Document what God is teaching you in this season. List relationships or habits He's removed—thank Him for making space for His blessings.**3. When Spiritual Hunger Grows → Feed It Daily    Scripture Focus: Matthew 5:6 ("Blessed are those who hunger for righteousness")    Action: Set a 10-minute "divine appointment" with God daily. No requests—just worship (try singing a hymn) or silent listening.**4. When Doors Open → Move with Discernment    Scripture Focus: Proverbs 3:5-6 ("Trust in the Lord with all your heart")    Action: For every opportunity, ask: Does this align with God's Word? Does it require faith? Does it serve others? If yes, take the first step.**5. When Peace Comes → Praise in Advance    Scripture Focus: Philippians 4:6-7 ("Pray with thanksgiving")    Action: Create a "thanksgiving list" of 3 things you're grateful for each night—including future blessings as if they've already happened.Final Encouragement"God's preparation is never wasted. The same hands that shaped the universe are shaping your story. Your ‘not yet' is not a ‘no'—it's a divine ‘wait for it.'"Your Assignment This Week: Pick one action step above and practice it daily. Watch how God moves when you partner with His process.My Video:  When God Is About to Bless You with Something Big  https://youtu.be/WdB9k9X8HI8My Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast5/When-God-Is-About-to-Bless-You-with-Something-Big.mp3

Wisdom doesn't just give you multiple choice but discernment helps you pick which choice you should be picking.

Fr. Timothy Gallagher and Kris McGregor discuss the importance of understanding the foundation of discerning God's will according to St. Ignatius. Before delving into the specific techniques of discernment, it's crucial to grasp why discerning God's will is significant.

Good or Bad Sermon Series

Greater Things, Greater Discernment: Charles Yu | November 9th, 2025

Pastor Dustin Clegg walks us through 1 John 4:1-6 and has 4 observations:1) Verse 12) How do we test the spirits?

Where do you turn for wisdom in a confusing world? False teachings, whether from culture, politics, or our own ideas, twist our understanding of right and wrong. Only by building our lives on the true gospel can we find our way through a confusing world, live as God wants, and join in God's ongoing work of restoration.

In this second installment of The War Within Series, Pastor Joe Moss II dives deep into one of the most urgent topics of our generation — discernment.We're living in an age where fake looks familiar, emotions are mistaken for anointing, and charisma often replaces character. But discernment — true spiritual sight — is how you see before you're stolen.Pastor Joe unpacks what happens when what we were taught by good people no longer aligns with what God is saying right now. Through this powerful message, you'll learn:

Mesaage regarding one divinely discerning why and what they were created for and valuing ourselves as the LORD's creation.  Scriptural Reference: Psalms 139:14-18

Ryan launches a multi-part series, Twisted Passions, addressing homosexuality and same-sex attraction from a biblical framework. He establishes why pastors should clearly preach what Scripture says while also equipping the church to counsel and care for strugglers, and he outlines upcoming topics: Is this sin “different,” are people “born this way,” and how do we raise kids in a sexualized culture? The aim is clarity, compassion, and confident hope in Christ for real victory.Topics DiscussedWhy churches must preach plainly on homosexuality (OT & NT texts)Common progressive rebuttals and why they don't hold up biblically (e.g., “love = affirmation,” misuse of John 8)Word study: ἀρσενοκοίτης and Paul's clarity in 1 Cor 6 / 1 Tim 1Beyond the pulpit: moving from denunciation to discipleship and counseling in the local churchShepherding kids in a perverted culture; building a proactive family planInviting listener questions/testimonies for future episodesKey TakeawaysScripture speaks clearly; pastors should, too—without hatred or compromise.“Love the sinner; hate the sin” isn't a cliché—Jesus says, “Go and sin no more.”Paul's terminology intentionally names male-with-male practice; it isn't vague.Churches must pair clear preaching with hands-on help for real people.Parents need an intentional, early plan to disciple children amid cultural lies.Ready to download the Cord App?

In this episode, I talk about common relationship misconceptions, like:“I thought he was the one just because he's Christian,”“I prayed for God to remove him, He didn't, so we should stay together,” or“He was the one and I'll never find anyone else because of all my mistakes.”I also dig into modesty, heart posture, and why character, growth, and faith alignment matter more than labels. Plus, I share practical advice for singles on building relationships that really reflect God's principles.

Today is part 2 of the conversation with Dr. Melesse Woldetsadik. We are following up on the need for discernment when blaming problems on the spiritual realm. In our post-modern world we have a tendency to dismiss spiritual beings to focus on science, and yet there are moments and situations that cannot be solved through the medical world or psychiatry. But others can, right? So how do we hold all these tools and how do we know which tool is needed for a particular problem? How do we know when medicine is a valuable part of the solution and when prayer is THE solution? Contact Cyndi Parker through Narrative of Place.Join Cyndi Parker's  Patreon Team!

Spiritual gifts discernment can feel almost impossible when every mystical experience makes you second-guess yourself. Maybe you've felt a nudge in prayer, a vivid dream, or an intuitive knowing — only to wonder if it's God, your imagination, or something darker. You want to trust what you're experiencing, but the fear of “getting it wrong” or betraying your faith keeps you stuck in doubt.In this episode of Leading With Spirit, we're joined by TruthSeekah and Arien, who open up about their own journeys as Christian mystics, breaking through religious conditioning, navigating fear, and finding God's voice in mystical experiences. Their stories pull back the curtain on the uneasy space between faith and spiritual curiosity.You'll walk away feeling less tangled in the constant doubt that makes you question every inner nudge.✨✨ If this episode spoke to the part of you that's been told your gifts are “dangerous” or “not of God”…You don't need to shut them down to stay safe. The Sacred Directions Archetypes can help you see where your gifts fit in the larger spiritual design — and why they've felt so hard to trust until now.

Thaddeus Stewart  The Familiar Stranger Part 7

In this episode, I'm joined again by Mano Elia for a wide-ranging conversation on discernment, community, and the spiritual struggle of our time. We're not in an age where truth is hidden anymore; everything, from truth to lies, is out in the open. The real challenge is no longer finding information, but seeing clearly through it. What we face now isn't a war of disinformation; it's a war of discernment. Mano and I zoom out from the noise of world events to explore the deeper physical, mental, and spiritual dimensions of our modern crisis. We discuss how evil reveals itself openly in today's culture, how digital life isolates us, and why the ultimate answer isn't political power or conspiracy-chasing, but a return to Christ, creativity, and tangible community. The conversation also challenges common misunderstandings about the so-called "black pill" mindset. While many look for salvation in politics or cultural battles, Mano and I argue that the only true white pill is Christ Himself.

“Your team of light is 24/7. Invitation is the on-switch.” In this playful, grounded convo, Jane and Sarah explore how intuition and spirit guides actually work in real life—no pedestal, no gatekeeping. From discerning inner noise vs. guidance, to creating a “secret garden” meeting place, to asking for divine and sacred support, they share stories, exercises, and synchronicities (hello, 444) that make guidance feel natural. You'll hear about shamanic journeying, channeled writing, two-way prayer, and why names aren't the point—relationship is. Expect joy, evidence, and practical steps to build trust with your team of light.   Major takeaways Guidance ≈ intuition amplified: your guides often speak through your intuitive channel. Discernment matters: notice the difference between old mental “tapes,” fear, and the clear, kind, neutral tone of guidance. Names aren't required: labels help humans, but the relationship + resonance are what count. Ask for divine and sacred support: specificity raises signal quality; you can even verify by asking, “Are you divine and sacred?” Free will is real: guides rarely intervene unless invited—ask for help clearly and often. Build a meeting place: Jane's “secret garden/spring” visualization (or your version) creates a stable portal for guidance. Practice = proof: little exercises (who's calling? how many will show up?) strengthen trust before the big moments. Presence is a superpower: gratitude + body awareness tune your antenna to signs and synchronicities. Loved ones can be “guardians”: beautiful support, and when doing healing/skill work, call in the specialists. Try two-way prayer & channeled writing: ask a question (“Dear Love, what would you have me know today?”) then receive.   “Guidance is often the same voice as intuition—just clearer and kinder.” “Ask for divine and sacred help, and then ask, ‘Are you divine and sacred?' Truth can't lie.” “I don't need a guide's name to feel the guidance—the relationship is the point.” “Free will means they won't drive your bus unless you hand them the keys.” “Presence is the portal. Gratitude is the tuning fork.”   WTF Just Happened  (Liz Entin's podcast) - Karen Doherty  Join us on Substack for The Afterlife—bonus clips after the “mic is off” (wink).

Today we're discussing the debate between feminists and non-feminists, and why I side with the non-feminists for biblical reasons. Just because women can do some of what men do doesn't mean we should. We'll also continue discussing the Charlie Kirk case, Erika Kirk's strange behavior, why being a widow doesn't automatically make you innocent, and why it's deeply concerning that TPUSA refuses to distance itself from Israel, even as Charlie's final words publicly challenged Israel, Judaism, and the control of figures like Ben Shapiro over the conservative movement.

In this episode Rev Zoë Garry is joined by the Rev. Daniel Heath, Davidson College's Associate Chaplain and Director of the Davidson Forum to talk about conversations on college campuses and reflecting on moments of discernment within their own journeys. Rev. Heath also serves as Chaplain for Major League Soccer's Charlotte FC. He earned degrees at Morehouse College, University of North Carolina School of Law, Winthrop University, and Princeton Theological Seminary. He recently celebrated 18 years of marriage to Katrina; they have two beautiful sons.

In a world that tells our girls to "trust their feelings" above all else, how can we teach them to discern truth from deception? Join hosts Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose for a rich, Spirit-led conversation on growing discernment—the ability to recognize God's truth, resist deception, and make wise decisions rooted in faith.  Rachael and Natalie explore the difference between simply following our instincts and tuning our hearts to the voice of the Holy Spirit. Drawing from both Scripture and real-life parenting moments, they unpack how discernment is more than a gut feeling—it's a trained skill that develops over time through prayer, Scripture study, and a deep relationship with Christ.  You'll also hear from Patti Garibay, American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Emeritus, as she shares a powerful Raising Godly Girls Minute, reminding parents to equip their daughters to spot Satan's subtle lies before they strike. Together, the hosts offer practical tools to help parents nurture girls who are both aware and anchored—unafraid of the world's deception because they are grounded in the Word.  By the end of this episode, you'll be encouraged to create intentional rhythms of prayer and conversation at home that help your daughter discern what's true, what's eternal, and what's simply noise. When she learns to slow down, listen, and seek God's wisdom first, she'll become a young woman confident in her calling and courageous in her convictions.  Three Key Points to Remember  Identity forms discernment. A girl who knows who and Whose she is becomes less vulnerable to the world's deception.  Discernment takes practice. Like a muscle, it grows stronger through consistency, clarity, and Scripture-guided reflection.  Prayer anchors discernment. Prayer is not passive—it's a weapon. Teach your girl to pray for wisdom and spiritual alertness daily.    Scripture References in This Episode  1 Corinthians 16:13 – "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong."  Philippians 1:9–11 – "That your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment…"  Ephesians 6:10–18 – The armor of God and the call to pray in the Spirit at all times.  Psalm 119:66 – "Teach me good judgment and knowledge, for I believe in your commandments."  2 Corinthians 11:14 – "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light."  Deuteronomy 6:6–7 – Parents are called to teach God's commands diligently to their children.  For more from Natalie Ambrose, visit natalieatwell.com.  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.  To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

Sure, but more importantly we should live like there is no tomorrow! Mark 13:32-37Luke 21:34-38Matthew 24:14www.messagetokings.com

This week's episode feels more like an unfolding than a plan. After a recent session with her coach and intuitive mentor, Kerri shares a revelation that stopped her in her tracks:Sometimes our devotion to people and outcomes quietly replaces our devotion to God.In this deeply personal conversation, Kerri explores how her vow of devotion - once her greatest strength - began to cloud her discernment in leadership, business, and life.
