What does it take to build a team that consistently performs at a high level? In this episode, Kevin sits down with Dr. Vanessa Druskat to explore what emotionally intelligent teams look like and how leaders can foster them. Vanessa introduces the concept of "team emotional intelligence" and explains why team culture, not just individual skills or personalities, is often the key differentiator between average and high-performing teams. She shares her practical three-part model, based on nine team norms, that top teams use to create environments of trust, psychological safety, and accountability. Vanessa also discusses why emotionally intelligent teams are fundamentally about how people interact, not just how they feel. She reveals what leaders should do in the first meeting of a new team to set the tone for long-term performance, and why nonverbal behaviors and small habits matter more than you think.

Story Transcript:Ca: A l'aire aspre de la tardor, el sol es ponia darrere les agulles de la muntanya de Montserrat.En: In the harsh autumn air, the sun set behind the peaks of Montserrat mountain.Ca: Els cims escarpats es perfilaven contra el cel, un recordatori omnipresent de la història i els misteris de Catalunya.En: The rugged summits outlined against the sky, serving as an omnipresent reminder of the history and mysteries of Catalunya.Ca: Martí, un historiador local amb ulls brillants de curiositat, caminava pel camí costerut cap al monestir.En: Martí, a local historian with eyes bright with curiosity, walked the steep path to the monastery.Ca: Al seu costat, Núria, una excursionista escèptica, l'acompanyava amb passos decidits.En: Beside him, Núria, a skeptical hiker, accompanied him with determined steps.Ca: Núria era una amant de la natura que sempre buscava explicacions lògiques a les coses, però en secret li captivaven els misteris no resolts.En: Núria was a nature lover who always sought logical explanations for things, but secretly, the unresolved mysteries captivated her.Ca: El monestir havia patit una pèrdua inesperada: la desaparició d'un antic artefacte que es deia que estava vinculat a una llegenda oblidada.En: The monastery had suffered an unexpected loss: the disappearance of an ancient artifact said to be linked to a forgotten legend.Ca: Martí, en la seva ànsia de reconeixement, volia trobar-lo.En: Martí, with his eagerness for recognition, wanted to find it.Ca: Núria, que a la superfície desitjava provar que no hi havia res de màgic, no podia evitar sentir una punxada d'interès.En: Núria, who outwardly desired to prove there was nothing magical, couldn't help but feel a twinge of interest.Ca: "Hi anem," va dir Martí amb determinació, mentre s'endinsaven per un camí poc conegut darrere les parets del monestir.En: "Let's go," said Martí with determination, as they ventured onto a little-known path behind the monastery walls.Ca: Núria sospirava, barreja de dubte i fascinació.En: Núria sighed, a mix of doubt and fascination.Ca: No volia creure en històries, però l'atracció del desconegut la motivava a seguir endavant.En: She didn't want to believe in stories, but the allure of the unknown motivated her to keep going.Ca: La muntanya era un laberint de roques i senderons amagats.En: The mountain was a labyrinth of rocks and hidden trails.Ca: Exploraven durant hores sense trobar pista.En: They explored for hours without finding any clues.Ca: L'aire es feia cada cop més fred i feia olor de fulles mortes.En: The air grew colder and smelled of dead leaves.Ca: Malgrat les dificultats, van seguir el seu instint fins a trobar una entrada mig oculta entre les roques.En: Despite the difficulties, they followed their instincts until they found a partially hidden entrance among the rocks.Ca: Amb nervis i excitació, van descobrir una cambra secreta.En: With nerves and excitement, they discovered a secret chamber.Ca: A dins, les parets estaven gravades amb símbols antics i, al centre, un petit pedestal buit indicava el lloc on hauria estat l'artefacte.En: Inside, the walls were engraved with ancient symbols, and at the center, a small empty pedestal indicated where the artifact would have been.Ca: Martí i Núria es miraven, compartint un moment de comprensió sense paraules.En: Martí and Núria looked at each other, sharing a moment of wordless understanding.Ca: "Potser, aquesta és la prova que la llegenda és real," va admetre Núria, amb la veu esmorteïda per l'admiració.En: "Perhaps this is proof that the legend is real," admitted Núria, her voice muted by admiration.Ca: Martí sabia que havia trobat més del que esperava.En: Martí knew he had found more than he expected.Ca: No era el reconeixement el que realment importava, sinó la veritat que havien desenterrat junts.En: It wasn't recognition that truly mattered, but the truth they had unearthed together.Ca: A mesura que sortien de la cambra, amb el cor ple d'emoció, van saber que la història restant a Montserrat era complexa.En: As they left the chamber, hearts full of excitement, they knew the story remaining at Montserrat was complex.Ca: El més important era la descoberta i el compartir d'aquest coneixement amb els altres.En: The most important thing was the discovery and sharing of this knowledge with others.Ca: Núria va acceptar que alguns misteris poden coexistir amb la realitat i va abraçar el seu nou interès pel desconegut.En: Núria accepted that some mysteries can coexist with reality and embraced her new interest in the unknown.Ca: Des d'aquell dia, la muntanya de Montserrat esdevingué encara més especial per Martí i Núria.En: From that day on, the mountain of Montserrat became even more special for Martí and Núria.Ca: Tot i que havien trobat el que buscaven, la trama de mites, història i natura havia creat un nou vincle entre ells, un misteri que roman part de la seva pròpia història compartida.En: Although they had found what they were looking for, the weave of myths, history, and nature had created a new bond between them, a mystery that remains part of their own shared story.

In this episode, Sharona and Boz dive into a concept new to many educators — Teacher Assessment Identity — and explore how teachers' beliefs, experiences, and professional contexts shape the way they design, interpret, and use assessments.Sharona introduces the idea after hearing about new research connecting assessment practices to teacher identity, and then leads Boz through a live, on-air reflective interview designed to help him uncover his own “assessment identity.” Together, they model how teachers can ask deep reflective questions about the why behind their assessment choices — revealing that grading and assessment reform are inseparable parts of the same professional journey.What follows is part self-assessment, part coaching session, and part exploration of how personal, disciplinary, and institutional identities influence assessment ethics, feedback, and student learning.LinksPlease note - any books linked here are likely Amazon Associates links.

In this powerful, deeply personal interview, Tanc walks us through a life shaped by gang culture, prison time, cartel connections, near-death situations, and ultimately—transformation. From his early days in the California state system to navigating the dangerous world of cross-border drug trafficking, he breaks down how major operations moved product from Peru and Mexico into the U.S., what it was like coordinating “jumps” across the border, why warehouses sat full of hundreds of untouched bricks, and the razor-thin line between survival and disaster. He also opens up about fatherhood changing his mindset, the struggle to find legitimate work after prison, facing racism while trying to re-enter society, and how community college became the unlikely start of a new path. This episode dives into: -His final state bid and what made him leave gang life behind -How he became involved with high-level cartel operators -The logistics behind massive cross-border drug shipments -The paranoia, betrayals, and close calls that come with the lifestyle -The moment he knew the feds were closing in -How education and family pulled him toward a different life Go Support Tanc!

Connect with Victoria Volk: Website: www.theunleashedheart.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/theunleashedheart   As the host of the Feel Free Again Podcast, I've had the privilege of hearing countless stories of loss and restoration — but few moved me like my conversation with Victoria Volk, a grief recovery specialist and mother of three from rural North Dakota. In this episode, we explore what it really means to confront decades of buried pain and how doing so can restore connection, compassion, and freedom. Victoria opens up about losing her father at age 8, enduring abuse, and spending 30 years trying to outrun grief through achievement, distraction, and numbing. Her breaking point led her to the Grief Recovery Method, which completely changed her life — and even saved her relationship with her mother. She shares how healing her heart didn't require others to change, but instead invited empathy, forgiveness, and peace that rippled through her entire family. We also talk about how grief recovery helps parents and children communicate more openly, why boundaries create safety, and what happens when anger is finally understood instead of suppressed. If you've ever lost someone, faced trauma, or felt emotionally stuck, this episode will remind you that you can't heal what you won't feel — and that freedom is closer than you think.   ⏱️ Chapters: 00:00 – Intro & Welcome to the Feel Free Again Podcast 01:05 – Meet Victoria Volk: Finding Grief Recovery After 30 Years 04:56 – The Midlife Unraveling: Identity, Motherhood & Burnout 06:50 – Discovering the Grief Recovery Method & Choosing Healing 10:05 – Why You Can't Heal Alone: The Power of Safe Spaces 16:42 – Healing the Relationship with Her Mother Through Compassion 23:04 – Boundaries, Body Awareness & Feeling Safe Again 31:02 – Teaching Kids Emotional Honesty & Healthy Anger 45:00 – Victoria's Son's Accident: How Grief Tools Saved Their Family 1:00:07 – Grief Is Everywhere: Why the World Needs This Work

The Habit-Based Coaching Framework Behind High-Ticket RenewalsEvery gym owner wants to change lives… But most are still stuck selling “workouts and nutrition plans” instead of the transformation clients truly pay for.In this episode, Scott Carpenter and Andy “Boy” Miller break down the real reason high-ticket programs work — and why clients happily pay $3K–$6K for a 9–12 week experience when it's structured the right way.This conversation pulls back the curtain on the Tiny Habits Method, identity-based coaching, and the systems behind mentorship programs that deliver real long-term change… not temporary motivation.

EVERYBODY was sure SOMEBODY would do it. ANYBODY could have done it, but NOBODY did it. EVERYBODY thought ANYBODY could do it, but NOBODY realized EVERYBODY wouldn't do it. In the end, EVERYBODY blamed SOMEBODY, when NOBODY did what ANYBODY could have done. Untimely, as a disciple of Jesus, if we're going to represent Jesus, be an expression of Him, we can't assume someone else will be the one to do it.

In this powerful episode of Diary of a Kidney Warrior Podcast, Dee sits down with Louise, a kidney warrior whose journey with IgA nephropathy spans over 30 years – from diagnosis in her early 20s, to pregnancy complications and heartbreaking baby loss, to finally receiving her life-changing kidney transplant, lovingly named “Katie the Kidney.”   Louise shares how her kidney disease was first discovered during pregnancy, the devastating loss of her son, and how for decades she coped by “putting everything in a box” and carrying on with life. She talks about living abroad with only 22% kidney function, unknowingly walking 20K with undiagnosed angina, and why kidney disease can be such a silent condition.   In an emotional and hope-filled conversation, Louise describes the moment she received “the call” for transplant, watching her donor kidney arrive in a cooler from Edinburgh, and being wheeled to theatre with Katie the Kidney on the end of her bed. She also opens up about the emotional healing that came with kidney failure – exploring trapped emotions, trauma, faith, and learning to truly take responsibility for her health and wellbeing.   If you're newly diagnosed, living with chronic kidney disease (CKD), resisting the idea of dialysis or transplant, or struggling emotionally with your diagnosis, this episode will give you hope, validation and practical encouragement.   In this episode, we discuss: •Louise's first signs of kidney disease and IgA nephropathy diagnosis •Pregnancy, kidney disease and the loss of her baby son •Living 30+ years with CKD and feeling “fine” at 22% kidney function •Discovering angina during transplant workup •Getting the call and meeting “Katie the Kidney” •How transplant changed her energy, skin, and brain fog •The emotional side of kidney disease: grief, trauma, “putting it in a box” •Why acknowledging your diagnosis and caring for your mental health is essential •Louise's advice for anyone newly diagnosed or scared of dialysis / transplant   You are not alone. Kidney disease is not the end – it's part of your story, not your identity.

In Week 4 of Made for More, Pastor Leonard teaches that while our purpose is to know and glorify God, the way we live it out is uniquely shaped by our gifts and experiences. God doesn't call the qualified; He qualifies the called, empowering us to serve in the way He designed. Discovering purpose begins with discovering who we were made to be, and it's never too late to step into the life God has planned for you.

Welcome to the DMF.I'm Justin Younts, and in this episode I sit down with Sara Alessandrini, who dives deep into the hierarchy of film production and the often misunderstood roles of directors and producers.Sara has met her fair share of people who love calling themselves “director” but shy away from the responsibilities that come with it — and she's not afraid to talk about it. With experience in both Italy and the United States, she's seen firsthand how dramatically different directors can be, and how those differences shape a set.She explains that a true director isn't defined by a title but by vision — the clarity to know what they want and the communication skills to guide an entire team toward that goal. Sara opens up about her film school journey, the early mistakes she made, and how learning every role on set fundamentally changed her approach to directing.Her insights offer a grounded, realistic look at what it actually takes to lead a production. Whether you're an aspiring filmmaker or simply curious about how movies get made, Sara breaks down the challenges, misconceptions, and triumphs of directing with honesty and experience.Join us as she pulls back the curtain on the real work happening behind the scenes — and why knowing your craft inside and out is absolutely essential.Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more industry insight and filmmaking wisdom.00:00:00 - Introduction00:00:07 - The Role of a Director00:01:23 - The Importance of Understanding Different Roles in Filmmaking00:03:32 - Learning from Mistakes and Gaining Experience00:04:34 - The Decision to Learn All Aspects of Filmmaking00:05:25 - Experiences Working in the Egyptian Theater00:06:42 - The Love for Music Videos00:08:34 - The Birth of 'This is What New Yorkers Say'00:10:30 - Frustrations with the Movie Industry00:15:30 - Leaving the Egyptian Theater and Working with Netflix00:16:10 - The Challenges of Building Safety Standards in California00:17:37 - Frustration with the Response to COVID00:18:11 - Political Interests and Experiences in Rome00:19:18 - Encounter with Dario Argento00:20:35 - Involvement in the Screening of Suspiria00:23:44 - Keeping Updated with Press Conferences During COVID00:24:38 - Discovering and Admiring Cuomo00:26:37 - Desire to Improve Society00:28:21 - ConclusionCheck out Sara's website, where you can learn more about the documentary miniseries and find links to watch it! https://www.thisiswhatnewyorkerssay.com https://www.instagram.com/lasava.alessandrini/

Today's episode is a special one - it's the 100th episode of the show. I just want to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to all of you who've supported the podcast over the past 10 years. Whether you've been here from the start or only recently discovered the show, your messages, reviews, and support have meant the world to me.Today on the podcast, we have a man who many consider to be the pioneer of the early retirement community. Pete Adney, aka Mr Money Mustache.I don't think Pete needs an introduction, but in case you somehow don't know who he is… Pete retired at the age of 30 after a career as a software engineer by living frugally and investing wisely.Through his blog, Mr. Money Mustache, he's inspired millions with his philosophy on financial independence, meaningful living, and sustainability.It was Pete's blog that first opened my eyes to early retirement - and showed me that financial independence didn't have to be something you waited until 60 to achieve... Discovering it all those years ago was a pivotal moment - one that completely reshaped how I viewed money, work, and time.

Joe Lu, Co-Founder of HeyMax, joins Jeremy Au to unpack how layoffs, timing, and conviction turned a setback into a startup opportunity. They trace Joe's journey from Shanghai to Michigan to Facebook Singapore, and how getting laid off in 2022 pushed him to co-found HeyMax. The conversation explores his reflections on building a consumer-first fintech, understanding mindshare arbitrage, and predicting how AI will reshape loyalty and value distribution between businesses and consumers. Joe also shares how fatherhood, risk-taking, and curiosity shaped his path as a founder. 00:45 From Shanghai to Silicon Valley engineer: Joe recounts growing up in China, studying in the U.S., and joining Expedia and Facebook during the golden age of software engineering. 06:27 Building Facebook Singapore's tech office: He helped establish one of Facebook's first Asia engineering hubs, seeing firsthand how global tech scales into the region. 12:17 Meta layoffs spark a new beginning: Losing his job in 2022 became the catalyst to start HeyMax with three co-founders instead of returning to corporate life. 19:15 Pivoting from AI-for-money to credit card tools: The team experimented with finance bots before hitting traction with a merchant category search tool that drew thousands of users. 23:50 Discovering the miles community: Joe realized that while few people care about miles, those who do care deeply, creating a niche with high engagement and clear demand. 30:37 Building a consumer-first value model: Joe envisions a future where AI helps people capture their own value directly from brands instead of intermediaries taking the largest cut. 46:42 Being brave as a founder and father: Joe shares how starting a company during a funding drought with two young kids taught him resilience, balance, and optimism.

Transcript:Ca: El vent de tardor feia ballar les fulles als peus d'Oriol mentre creuava la plaça del poble de Figueres.En: The autumn wind made the leaves dance at Oriol's feet as he crossed the town square in Figueres.Ca: Era la Castanyada, i el lloc bategava amb l'escalfor dels focs dels rostidors de castanyes.En: It was Castanyada, and the place was buzzing with the warmth of chestnut roasters' fires.Ca: Oriol, un nen ple d'imaginació, tenia els ulls brillants amb la promesa del dia.En: Oriol, a boy full of imagination, had eyes shining with the promise of the day.Ca: Al seu costat, la Laia, la seva millor amiga, recollia castanyes amb devoció.En: Beside him, Laia, his best friend, was devotedly collecting chestnuts.Ca: La Marina, la seva mestra, estava a prop, emocionada per explicar les tradicions.En: Marina, his teacher, was nearby, excited to share the traditions.Ca: "Mira quantes castanyes, Oriol!En: "Look how many chestnuts, Oriol!"Ca: " va dir la Laia, mostrant el seu farcell.En: said Laia, showing her bundle.Ca: Però Oriol no podia deixar de pensar en els rumors que havia sentit.En: But Oriol couldn't stop thinking about the rumors he had heard.Ca: Es deia que, a la plaça, hi havia un racó amagat on els esperits es reunien cada Castanyada.En: It was said that in the square, there was a hidden corner where spirits gathered every Castanyada.Ca: Amb tanta gent, fer la descoberta es convertia en una aventura irresistible per a ell.En: With so many people, making the discovery turned into an irresistible adventure for him.Ca: La Marina va començar a explicar la història de la Castanyada, parlant de com la gent encenia focs per recordar el caliu de la família i els que ja no hi eren.En: Marina began to tell the story of Castanyada, talking about how people lit fires to remember the warmth of family and those who were no longer there.Ca: Però Oriol, amb les orelles acostumades a les històries més insòlites, va sentir el seu cor picar a un altre ritme.En: But Oriol, with ears accustomed to more unusual stories, felt his heart beating to a different rhythm.Ca: "Laia, t'has assabentat del que diuen sobre els esperits?En: "Laia, have you heard what they say about the spirits?"Ca: " va murmurar-li mentre la multitud es movia al seu voltant.En: he murmured as the crowd moved around them.Ca: "Despreocupa't, Oriol.En: "Don't worry, Oriol.Ca: Ens hem de quedar amb el grup," va respondre la Laia, però Oriol ja somiava desperta.En: We need to stay with the group," replied Laia, but Oriol was already daydreaming.Ca: Va decidir aventurar-se sol cap a un racó menys conegut de la plaça, mentre la Laia mirava enrere preocupada.En: He decided to venture alone to a lesser-known corner of the square, while Laia looked back worriedly.Ca: Els colors de tardor donaven a cada ombra un aire enigmàtic.En: The autumn colors gave every shadow an enigmatic air.Ca: Allà, sota un antic roure, Oriol va trobar un home gran, amb una veu suau com el vent.En: There, under an ancient oak, Oriol found an old man with a voice as gentle as the wind.Ca: "Tu busques històries, no?En: "You are looking for stories, aren't you?"Ca: " li va dir l'home sense preàmbuls.En: the man said without preamble.Ca: Sorprès però encantat, Oriol es va asseure als seus peus.En: Surprised but delighted, Oriol sat at his feet.Ca: L'home li va explicar històries antigues de la Castanyada, de com les famílies recordaven els seus ancestres al voltant del foc mentre menjaven castanyes i moniatos.En: The man told him ancient stories of Castanyada, of how families remembered their ancestors around the fire while eating chestnuts and sweet potatoes.Ca: Li va parlar dels esperits com a amics que venien només a fer companyia, no a espantar.En: He spoke of spirits as friends who came only to keep company, not to frighten.Ca: Quan va tornar amb el grup, les preocupacions de la Marina i de la Laia es van esvair ràpidament en veure el somriure del nen.En: When he returned to the group, Marina and Laia's worries quickly vanished upon seeing the boy's smile.Ca: Oriol, amb una emoció nova, va compartir tot el que havia après, parlant animadament dels esperits amics i de la importància de recordar els nostres arrels.En: Oriol, with a new sense of excitement, shared all he had learned, speaking animatedly about the friendly spirits and the importance of remembering our roots.Ca: La Marina el va escoltar orgullosa, mentre la Laia va somriure, ara més relaxada.En: Marina listened proudly, while Laia smiled, now more at ease.Ca: Oriol havia tornat segur, i no només això, sinó amb una nova comprensió del significat d'aquella jornada.En: Oriol had returned safely, and not only that, but with a new understanding of the day's significance.Ca: Des d'aquell moment, Oriol no només va celebrar la Castanyada per les castanyes o els moniatos, sinó per la connexió amb el passat i el caliu dels records.En: From that moment on, Oriol didn't just celebrate Castanyada for the chestnuts or sweet potatoes, but for the connection with the past and the warmth of memories.Ca: Una tradició que, per a ell, havia guanyat un valor immens aquell dia radiant a la plaça de Figueres.En: A tradition that, for him, had gained immense value on that bright day in the square of Figueres.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible podcast! In today's episode, we journey together through the pages of Scripture, exploring the depths of Job 37 and 38, and discovering the richness of spiritual gifts in 1 Corinthians 12. Hunter invites us to open our hearts and reflect on God's unfathomable power, the beauty of creation, and the unity we find as members of Christ's body. Through heartfelt prayer, thoughtful reflection, and practical encouragement for everyday kindness, this episode weaves together wisdom from ancient texts and personal devotion. Whether you're seeking a deeper way of life or simply a moment of peace, join us as we focus our hearts on what matters most—and remember, you are loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: The Way of Life. Have you discovered the way of life? The body of Christ, in all its rich variety, is made for life. It derives its life from the one who is life itself. So have you found the Way of life? What is the way of life? First Corinthians 12:6 tells us plainly: God works in different ways, but it is the same God who does the work in all of us—God in us. In all of us. The way of life is God expressing himself in us. It is God in the hand, in the eye, in the ear, in the man, in the woman, in the boy, in the girl. It is God in me and God in you. The way of life is God expressing himself through your uniquely created, gifted self. Do you have peace with who you are? Do you have patience with where you are? Are you confident with yourself? Are you confident with what God has asked of you? To the extent that you realize that God is at work in you, that will be the extent that you discover and live in the way of life. There's another way of living that is not life. And that, of course, is to deny or to fail to see or recognize or welcome the life that you have in him. We fail to surrender to his life and instead demand our own. But when we do live the way of life, God uses the unique ways that he has created and gifted us in service to his kingdom for our own joy, so that others might know and experience his love. He enables us to help others find the way of life and to awaken to the reality of Christ in them. Paul wants to show us the way of life today—verse 31: "But now let me show you a way of life that is best of all." And the prayer of my own heart today is that we will see it, that we will know it, that we will receive it, that we will live in it. That's a prayer that I have for my own soul. That's a prayer that I have for my family, too—my wife and my daughters, my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL
