This month I've been thinking a lot about distractions and how easy it is to spend time on things that feel productive while avoiding the one thing that actually matters. I've been getting distracted by stocks and NBA bets, using AI as a weirdly effective therapist after an argument with my wife, and finally the big focus reset we're making at AppSumo. If you've been feeling scattered, stuck, or like you're busy but not really moving forward… this one's for you.

You're Not Deaf, You're Distracted | Shifting Gears | Pastor Robert Rivera by Riverside Church

Summer has returned. That often brings seasonal vacations that give you downtime in a car or airplane, maybe on a nice beach somewhere. You already know that's a great opportunity to catch up on reading. So what are some tips and tricks to refocus on reading, finding the best fantastical novels and gaining the most from these worlds? Episode sponsors All that Glows by Lauren Smyth Realm Makers 2026 Conference & Expo Author Update from Author Media The Talismiths: The Secret Saboteur by M. L. Hodder Mission update New at Lorehaven: reviews have entered a pre-summer hiatus Use the super Library search to find your family's next favorite Subscribe free to get updates and join the Lorehaven Guild 1. Value quality books over quantity of books. Alas, I can't make this year's FPEA with Realm Makers Bookstore. But if I had, I'd have heard this line repeated: “My kid reads fast!” This is of course a great problem to have in homeschool families. Many want books “without agenda,” that is, obvious bad ideas. Yet fewer parents ask for books “without ugly,” that is, excellent. In some cases, this may feel like a luxury belief. Kids may not care. Many kids, for example, will read at scale—good books and bad. When I was a late teenager, I began learning some books are ugly. My first truly bad novel was [Title Redacted] by [Author Redacted]. But in my family, I had to learn a “language” for describing this. I was helped by reading newspaper reviews of books and films. Then later, early 90s internet taught me better (and bad) reviews. The Pop Culture Parent shares some guides for evaluating beauty. Yet one clear sign—the book asks questions leading you to Jesus. That's why we host the Lorehaven Library and review some titles. 2. Still, focus on reading many quality books! Stephen has a unique struggle: holding onto pleasure reading. As publisher of Lorehaven, it's hard to read without some “goal”! But read we must, “for its own sake,” that is, for our Author's sake. Still, as we age, perhaps every book gains more “practical” value. Stephen often hyper-schedules every working and resting day. This seems a great way to set goals. “The calendar made me do it.” And then, five or fifteen minutes in, momentum alone takes over. You may also need to turn off your phone or use “airplane mode.” Stephen keeps it on, but keeps all social-media notifications muted. Distracted by chatter? Try a free white-noise generator (or an app). Kindles and other devices also help with distraction-free reading. Don't forget classic printed books. There's nothing like real pages! 3. Join other readers to share great novels. Obviously your family and friends can be your first fellow readers. Ask your kids what they're reading, and share what you read too! Take natural interest in their stories, the ideas, and what they love. Stephen's siblings and him often joined in reading and even writing. Now, he and his wife Lacy frequently read, often aloud, with voices. If possible, join (or start?) physical book clubs at your local church. Focus on quality, classic, and/or Christian-made fantastical titles. Sure, you might use sites or social media to find matching books. Stephen isn't sure that AI (or AI-driven apps) prove best for this. Lorehaven features monthly book quests to help us read together. We believe humans, made in Christ's image, can best find books. Subscribe free to join the Guild and talk about all manner of titles. Com station Top question for listeners What are your top tricks for reading the best and most books? Next on Fantastical Truth Now that Zack and Stephen are taking turns, next week's episode just might cover a new genre that dares to suggest faithful priests and other religious heroes of the future may not be (gasp) wicked villains. In fact, they may be kind of awesome—and potentially wear powerful mech armor. What is this subgenre some creators call incensepunk?

MAY. 21, 2026Don't allow yourself to be distracted."Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us." Heb 12:1 NKJVIn March 1987, Eamon Coughlan was running in the qualifying heat at the World Indoor Track Championships in Indianapolis. He was the reigning world record holder at 1500 meters and was favored to win the race. Unfortunately, with two and a half laps left, he tripped and fell hard. But he got up, and with great effort managed to catch the race leaders. With twenty yards to go, he was in third place, which would have been good enough to qualify for the final race. Then Coughlan made a fateful mistake—he looked over his shoulder to the inside. Seeing no one there, he relaxed his effort slightly. What he hadn't noticed was that a runner was charging hard on the outside. This runner passed him just a yard before the finish line, eliminating him from the finals. Coughlan's great comeback effort ended up being worthless for only one reason: He momentarily took his eyes off the finish line and focused on the would-be competitors behind him.  The writer of the book of Hebrews said, "Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us." A "weight" refers to things that are legitimate but can slow you down. A "sin" refers to something illegitimate that you know to be wrong and can cost you the race. So lay them both aside and "run with endurance the race that is set before [you], looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith" (vv. 1-2 NKJV).Don't allow yourself to be distracted Don't take your eyes off the finish line.Share This DevotionalSend us Fan MailSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!

The hosts open the show discussing Jill's recent interview with the head of Infiniti USA regarding--among other things--the possible comeback of the humble sedan. This conversation dovetails nicely with Tom's news regarding the likely comeback of a Buick midsize sedan--and a possible Camaro, as well. Jill shared impressions of a would-be annual Land Rover event dubbed Defender Trophy Competition. The event would mirror the legendary Camel Trophy competitions of the Seventies and Eighties. Still in the first segment, Jill reviews the Range Rover SE premium large crossover. Listen in for her take on this off-road-ready luxury hauler. In the second segment, the hosts chat with Caterham's Simon Sproule about the carmaker's tiny sports cars. Listen in for details regarding the history of Caterham, as well as U.S. availability of these storied automobiles. In the last segment, Jill is subjected to Tom's "Which Sold Better?" quiz, including a special Talking Heads bonus question. After the quiz, Tom talks about Elon Musk, and how apparently distracted he is from from developing his core automotive products.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

EVN ELLIS: Facing a total oil collapse, Cuba considers a U.S. aid offer for internet access while the state maintains Chinese listening stations and a tenuous military relationship with a distracted and entangled Russia. (9/16)1920 NEW ZEALAND

How are the conversations in your life going right now? Do your relationships feel deep and connected… or mostly rushed, distracted, and surface level? Do you leave conversations feeling truly known? Do the people in your life feel deeply seen by you? Or does it feel like everyone is talking… but no one is really slowing down enough to connect? In today's episode, we continue the Go Slow series by talking about something that shapes every relationship we have: Our conversations. Because the truth is, most of us are moving through conversations the same way we move through life: Fast. Distracted. Half-present. Trying to get to the next thing. And when we live at that pace, our relationships stay shallow—even with the people we love most. In this episode, we unpack two foundational keys to creating deeper, richer, more intentional conversations: ✨ Creating “negative space” (silence, slowness, room to process) ✨ Asking intentional questions that lead to real connection We talk about: • Why silence feels uncomfortable—but is essential for depth • The difference between introverts and extroverts in conversation • How to help your spouse, kids, and friends feel emotionally safe • Why interrupting isn't always bad (when done intentionally) • How phones quietly damage trust and vulnerability in conversations • Why great conversations don't require perfect words—just genuine curiosity and presence • The subtle ways rushed conversations erode connection over time If you've been craving deeper relationships, stronger friendships, more meaningful conversations with your kids or spouse—this episode will give you simple, practical shifts that can completely change the way you connect. Because often… Depth doesn't come from saying more. It comes from slowing down enough to truly listen. love, Brittany    Ready to become a peaceful wife and Mama?

Will America really be distracted into a dystopia? Join Bobby and Jordan for this discussion and many others and also Maude and Gladys.

What should’ve been a simple trivia showdown turned into total chaos when one contestant called in sounding underwater, Victoria got hilariously sidetracked, and somehow crayons became a serious topic of discussion. From bizarre answers to confusing celebrity mix-ups, this episode of You vs. Victoria completely spirals out of control in the best way possible.

Our guest this week is Thundercat, and we couldn't have picked a better one to mark our 500th episode. The Los Angeles-born bassist, vocalist, and producer has built a reputation as one of the most gifted and distinctive voices in contemporary music, an artist who has never been content to stay in one place, with a body of work that pulls from funk, jazz, soul, and avant-garde R&B. A Grammy Award-winner whose collaborations with Kendrick Lamar, Flying Lotus, and the late Mac Miller have made him as celebrated on other people's records as his own, with his records ‘Drunk' and ‘It Is What It Is' standing as benchmarks of his solo work. Last month, he released Distracted, his first album in six years, and he's currently in Australia on tour in support. On today's episode, Thundercat joins us to discuss what it felt like to come back with a new record after such a long absence, the qualities he seeks out in a collaborator, and the deeply personal process behind She Knows Too Much, made in conjunction with Mac Miller's estate.Thundercat : Instagram / Spotify / WebsiteVisit our official website here and follow us across our socials.

Motherhood, responsibility, schedules, distractions, endless to-do lists. Life has a way of pulling our attention in a thousand different directions. In this heartfelt message through the story of Mary and Martha, we're reminded that even good things can slowly pull our focus away from what matters most.Whether you're a mom balancing a busy home, someone carrying heavy responsibilities, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the noise of life, this message is an invitation to pause. Jesus gently reminds us that while we may be worried and distracted by many things, only one thing is truly necessary: time spent in His presence.So often we chase productivity, perfection, and expectations while neglecting the peace our hearts are actually longing for. But devotion to Jesus was never meant to be an afterthought squeezed into whatever time is left over.Subscribe to Our Channel! New to LifeRock?

Do you ever feel like you don't even know what's going on inside of you? Like you're reacting… overwhelmed… irritated… shutting down… but you don't actually know why? Do you stay busy, distracted, or constantly consuming… just to avoid slowing down long enough to feel what's really there? In today's episode, we continue the Go Slow series by turning inward— and talking about what it looks like to slow down with yourself. Because in a world filled with noise, scrolling, podcasts, and constant input… many of us have lost the ability to sit in silence and actually reflect. And without that? We miss what's happening beneath the surface. We miss our pain. We miss our patterns. We miss how our thoughts and emotions are shaping our lives and relationships. And even more importantly… we miss what God is trying to show us. In this episode, we unpack why introspection feels so uncomfortable, how numbing and distraction are keeping you stuck, and why creating space to reflect is essential for real growth. Because here's the truth: If God is going to do something through you… He first wants to do something in you. And that requires slowing down long enough to actually see what's going on inside. love, Brittany    Ready to become a peaceful wife and Mama? Sign Up for the Pain to Peace Academy HERE.

Technology isn't inherently bad—but it is shaping you.In this episode, we talk about what it means to live in a world of constant noise, endless scrolling, and algorithm-driven attention. Why do we reach for our phones without thinking? Why does it feel so hard to be still?This conversation explores how digital habits are forming our thoughts, emotions, and spiritual lives—and how we can begin to set boundaries that actually lead to freedom. Jesus doesn't compete with noise—He calls us out of it.If you've been feeling distracted, overwhelmed, or spiritually distant, this is an invitation to reset and refocus.Because attention isn't neutral—it's directional.

Lecture by Swami Tyagananda on the 29th of April, 2026, at the Ramakrishna Vedanta Society of Boston, MA. For more information, please see https://vedantasociety.net/store?category=Gita

In this lesson, Pastors Dale and Patty teach on the importance of guarding against distractions to your faith. The enemy often uses the "facts" of certain situations and circumstances to pull our attention away from the truth of the Word. When we allow our focus to shift back and forth from what the Word says to what the issues of life and even our thought lives are saying, doubt, unrest, strife, struggle and, eventually, wavering faith, will soon follow. In order to maintain strong, active, effective faith, we must be single-minded, NOT double-minded. Focused, undistracted faith stands its ground, stays on course, and gets results.

Relationships are powerful—but they can also be distracting.This week, we talk about relational distraction: how the people in our lives can subtly shift our focus, influence our decisions, and sometimes pull us away from what matters most.What does it look like to have relationships that actually lead you toward truth instead of away from it?This message brings clarity to that tension.

Join the Conversation at 303-477-5600 or text to 307-200-8222 Monday - Friday from 3 pm - 6 pm MT. https://RushToReason.com HOUR 1 What if the biggest threat to your future health isn't something sudden… but something you're doing every single day? In this powerful Health and Wellness Wednesday, John Rush, joined by Michael Bailey and later Troy Duell, connects the dots between stress, planning, and long-term brain health. From the emotional cost of unprepared estate situations to the silent damage caused by chronic stress, the conversation reveals how preparation can protect more than just your assets; it can protect your well-being. Then the emphasis shifts to a growing crisis: dementia and Alzheimer's. With one in four Americans at risk, John explores what's really driving the surge. Is it diet, sugar, or processed foods? Or something deeper in how we live? As Troy Duell joins, the discussion expands into brain fog, sleep, nutrition, and the overlooked importance of cognitive involvement. Are you challenging your brain—or letting it coast? From whole foods and healthy fats to fasting, hydration, and even microplastics, this hour is packed with insights that might change how you think about your health. The takeaway? Your future mental and physical clarity depends on the choices you make today. 2. Guest Timestamps * 1:57 — Michael Bailey — https://MobileEstatePlanning.com * 29:45 — Troy Duell — Centurion Health — https://centurion.health HOUR 2 What happens when history, politics, and modern power collide in real time? In Hour 2, John dives directly into the battle over truth, influence, and the future of American thought. Joined by Richard Battle, the hour begins with a look back at the Founding Fathers—revealing how figures like James Monroe rose not through elite systems, but through grit, sacrifice, and self-education. But how does that compare to today's culture of dependency and distraction? Then the conversation pivots—hard. From the “dumbing down” of society to the rise of political power plays, John exposes a realm where information is currency. What if you could track politicians' stock trades and profit from their decisions? And what does that say about the system itself? The intensity builds as Sunny Kutcher joins, unpacking explosive allegations, media silence, and the growing role of everyday Americans in discovering the truth. Who controls the narrative—and why? As the hour closes, John delivers a blunt message: labels, ideologies, and systems don't define reality—facts do. The real question is… are you willing to look? Guest Timestamps * 1:13 — Richard Battle — https://richardbattle.com * 27:35 — Sunny Kutcher — https://www.yaas.org HOUR 3 What if the biggest stories shaping your future are the ones hiding in plain sight? In Hour 3, John Rush and Jerzee Joe kick things off with perspective—reminding listeners to measure success not by what's missing, but by what's been achieved. But that moment of reflection quickly gives way to a whirlwind of headlines that feel almost unbelievable… yet very real. The hour raises a critical question: are today's outcomes the result of poor leadership… or intentional direction? As the conversation shifts, Scott Garliss joins to break down what's happening beneath the surface of the markets. While global instability grows, the U.S. may be quietly gaining strength—drawing investment, building momentum, and signaling a potential shift most people aren't seeing. Then the focus returns home—where policy meets reality. With EV sales dropping sharply after subsidies end, John highlights a hard truth: what happens when incentives drive behavior? From personal success to global markets, this hour connects the dots—leaving one lingering question: are we paying attention to what really matters?

What if distraction isn't just about being busy—but about being emotionally divided?In this message, we revisit the story of Mary and Martha in Luke 10:38–42 and uncover a deeper layer that often gets missed. Martha wasn't rebuked for working—she was gently corrected for being worried and upset. Her issue wasn't activity; it was internal agitation.That hits close to home.We live in a world where emotional overload is normal—constant headlines, pressure, fear, and noise. We're physically present but mentally and emotionally somewhere else. Like Martha, we can be in the room with Jesus and still feel distant.But Jesus' response reveals the antidote: “only one thing is needed.”This episode explores:Why emotional distraction is more dangerous than busynessHow internal division affects your peace, clarity, and connection with GodThe subtle ways culture shapes what you care aboutWhy humility is the gateway to freedomHow to actually “cast your cares” instead of carrying themThe world demands your attention—but Jesus invites your affection.And what you give your affection to will shape your life.

We're thrilled to welcome back Dr. E. Kevin Kelloway, Professor of Psychology and Management at Saint Mary's University, to The Safety Guru for a powerful conversation on the critical role of work readiness and the simple yet impactful REDI framework for creating safer workplaces. In this insightful episode, Dr. Kelloway introduces the REDI model, a practical, human-centered approach to assessing work readiness through four key factors: Rested, Emotionally Calm, Distracted, and Impatient/In a hurry. When people are not fully ready for the task at hand, the risk of errors and incidents can rise, especially in high-risk environments. Dr. Kelloway explains how each element of the model influences safety outcomes and decision-making. Through real-world examples, he shares how leaders and teams can apply this framework in practice to spark meaningful conversations before risk is introduced. Tune in to explore how organizations can use this straightforward framework to strengthen safety culture, increase awareness, and create safer workplaces by ensuring every team member is truly REDI for the work ahead. About the Guest: Dr. E. Kevin Kelloway is the University Research Professor and Professor of Psychology and Management at Saint Mary's University, Halifax, Nova Scotia. A prolific researcher, he has authored over 200 articles and chapters and has authored/edited 15 books to date. His research focuses on occupational health psychology and, in particular, how leaders affect health and safety within organizations. Kevin has been elected a Fellow of the Association for Psychological Science, the Canadian Psychological Association, the International Association for Applied Psychology, and the Society for Industrial/Organizational Psychology. In 2016, he served as President of the Canadian Psychological Association.

On this week's episode, we hope you know the difference between a ghost and an Inferius, lest you want to incur the sass of Severus Snape. Join Andrew, Eric, Micah and Laura as we suffer through Defense Against The Dark Arts while trying very hard to break into the Room of Requirement. Chapter-by-Chapter continues with Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Chapter 21: The Unknowable Room Main Discussion #1: Distracted by Draco Fudge Flashback: We reflect on the Minister's comments in the very first chapter of this book: "The other side can do magic too." As Hermione consistently reminds Harry throughout the chapter, he is taking his eyes off the prize. Why is Harry not more focused given how testy Dumbledore was with him during their last lesson? We debate whether or not Dumbledore should have offered Harry more guidance Snitch Report: Given how Dobby behaves after tailing Draco, should Harry have been more mindful of what he was asking the former Malfoy house-elf to do? Why did it take Harry (and Hermione) 452 pages to realize Draco was using the Room of Requirement? Main Discussion #2: EMO Slytherins Snape is in rare form. Do we attribute his more-than-sassy nature to Draco? Dumbledore? Or did he just not have his coffee? Draco is in over his head. Do we have any sympathy for him? Lynx Line: What would you say to make the Room of Requirement open for you to reveal what Draco is up to?

Episode 3522: Nir Eyal reveals that distraction isn't caused by external triggers but by our urge to escape discomfort, and the solution is to make tedious tasks engaging. Drawing on Ian Bogost's ideas, he shows how curiosity, constraints, and deeper attention can transform even boring work into something immersive and meaningful. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.nirandfar.com/tedious-tasks/ Quotes to ponder: "Fun is not a feeling so much as an exhaust produced when an operator can treat something with dignity." "Fun is the aftermath of deliberately manipulating a familiar situation in a new way." "The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity."

This instability threatens to further impoverish European and Asian allies who are increasingly treated as subservient vassals. (2)1569 LONDINIUM

Kat is feeling antsy for a getaway (and a Paradise binge), while Amy feels excited for her "More Whimsy, Less Worry" talk. Those are their feelings of the day and here’s what’s discussed in this episode: - The 8 & 80 Rule: Amy shares that there are only two people you should be living for. What would your 8-year-old self say about your silliness? And what is your 80-year-old self yelling at you to do right now? - The Disrespect Trap: Are you accidentally teaching people that your time has no value or that your decisions need their approval? They break down the 4 ways we "train" people how to treat us and the specific scripts to use to take your power back. - The 5 Levels of Listening: Are you actually tuned in, or are you just "waiting for your turn to talk"? They audit our listening habits from "Distracted" to "Hearing what’s unsaid." - Cocktail Lessons: Why the White Russian is now a "no" for Amy & how it’s different from a Bushwacker! - The Pillow Hack: Why we are all moving our pillows into the sunlight this week to kill bacteria and clear up our skin.
