Scripture Passage 1 Corinthians 10:1-13 Worship Video Worship Audio Sermon Script Have you had a personal experience of meeting God? Meeting God is a wonderful experience. When you meet God, everything is good. You feel embraced by God's love. Your burdens are lifted. You feel that everything is going to be alright. Many of you […] The post Hold Fast, Do Not Give Up appeared first on St Timothy Presbyterian Church.
How many people have prayed and got nothing from God but crickets? They prayed with no response or get the response they didn't want? They get discouraged and quit praying, reading their bibles, they no longer show up for services, and the next thing you know, they don't want anything to do with God at all. Why does God not answer our every beckoning call? Doesn't He know we are in trouble? In a pinch? Desperate?!?! Yes! Yes He does and He hears every prayer you have prayed and He does care. I don't know why God chooses to answer and not to answer prayers...but this I do know...He is sovereign and without Him, we don't have any hope! Hang on, keep grinding, DO NOT GIVE UP!
Sometimes parents will tell their children not to do certain things. But such prohibitions are motivated by love. These negative commands are to ensure a positive outcome. A good biblical example of this is the list of thou shalt nots in the Ten Commandments. In this section, James gives his audience a few negative instructions so they can have a positive life.I. Do Not GrumbleII. Do Not Back DownIII. Do Not Give UpIV. Do Not Speak HastilyTalk with God: Meditate on 1 John 2:5-6 and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal areas of your life that don't reflect your love for the Lord.Talk with others: Ask a friend or member of your Connect Group how you can pray for them as they seek to align their lives to God's Word.Talk with kids: What were the believers doing while Peter was in prison?

Today Briana sits down with Erica Romberger, who recently passed her exam in April 2023. Erica is a new mom, and 2020 grad, and she hopes her story will help motivate and inspire others! Here's a little about Erica: "Hey y'all! I'm finally Erica Romberger, PTA all thanks to Bri and her awesome program she has built! I started my PTA journey with Bri in July of 2019. I had graduated from The Pennsylvania State University with my Bachelors in Kinesiology; after multiple applications to DPT programs denied, I came across a PTA program literally 10 minutes from my house! Central Penn college truly changed my life. Allowing me to still work towards my goal of helping patients. School was rough, I'm not going to lie but I finished even with us being shut out of a classroom due to COVID. Having neurology online was brutallllll and I mean it; I had a melt down everyday it felt like. Fast forward, we were allowed to get into the clinics for clinical and I felt revived! My dream of being a PTA was still within reach! Going into my boards the first time, I'll be honest, I barely studied… I DO NOT RECOMMEND!! I was too cocky and just wanted to have a life since I had graduated and it was not the good choice. Second time, I changed my approach but didn't truly know how to properly retain the information without the hands on part and having someone to go through things with. Again, another fail sadly… I was defeated so I took a break, got a full time job started a 401k and just took a mental break. I ran into my one professor at a grocery store and she recommended I reach out to Briana for her program if I truly wanted to do it a third try. So I got in touch and BOOM! Bri got me back into it with a proper study plan, proper techniques and thennnnnn I got pregnant. Being pregnant and trying to study; do not recommend LOL! Pregnancy brain is so real. So I still tried anyways and then I realized I had to go before the board to present a study plan so I didn't get approved for a third attempt but I didn't stop. I kept pushing. I had my son Nov 2nd enjoyed my maternity leave and at the end of my leave, I went before the board (extremely stressful) and presented my study plan. They approved me!! Third attempt was now within my reach and in my control of passing. I was nervous, anxious, stressed, overwhelmed with being a new mother and just wanting it sooooo bad! Bri, is a miracle worker yall. In touch with me constantly reassuring me, pushing me to do this for myself and my son and here I am! THAT GREEN CIRCLE, PASSED!! Being a mother is HARD and being a mother in school is even HARDER! If I learned anything, DO NOT GIVE UP! Y'all it is soooo worth it! You are worth it, you can do it and you will! Bri also helped me get into that mindset. My son will know one day how much I love him, but also how hard I pushed myself to make him proud of what I do. I am extremely thankful for this program and I cannot wait to start my career in the healthcare industry! All my mamas out there who think they can't, YOU CAN! If not for you, then just look at that little one looking up at you and do it for them! You got this, seriously!"

Wanting to show his alcoholic parents that he didn't need them to be on top of the world, Paul Aragon found himself in prison. He spent his childhood making $40,000-80,000 weekly selling drugs and eventually ended up with 7 felonies. But it turns out that prison was the best thing that could've happened to him. It's in there that he found God and started rebuilding his life. Today, he runs his own multi-million dollar roofing company. This is the story of the rocky roads Paul took to overcome health, legal, financial, and relationship adversity. “It's not all gonna come together right away. You're gonna have to work at it. It's gonna take daily habits and daily discipline; and if you could do a few things each day to impact your business and impact your financial future, that's what you gotta do” (47:33) Paul Aragon is the owner of Jireh7 Enterprises which he has been running since 2006.Adversities Paul had to overcome: Both parents were alcoholicsStarted selling drugs at 10 years oldArrested several times by 22Faced the possibility of a 25-to-life sentenceLost all his money and possessionsHad 7 felonies to his nameGot ripped off working under the tableAbundance Paul created: Found Jesus in prisonGot his GEDPaid $108,000 of debt offBought his first home in 2019Lessons from Paul's adversities Hard times aren't the end of the road but you must make the decision not to give upThere is a purpose in painIf you get complacent, you lose your wayTune in as Paul and Jamie talk about: (00:00) From drugs and prison to multi-million dollar roofing company(06:54) Looking for acceptance in all the wrong places(12:40) Arrested at 22(14:40) Why was he doing this(16:12) 25 to life(21:00) Turning his life around in prison(27:33) Making 60 cents a day(34:36) Was breaking the rules worth it(36:28) Getting ripped off & under the table work(41:53) Starting his roofing company(49:11) Lessons from his adversities(51:27) Fireside questions(58:28) Personal finance coachingLinks BIFI Loan Servicing Books and Resources Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill From Homelessness to Prison to Financial Freedom through Real Estate with Mark Owen Connect with Paul Aragon: WEBSITE: https://www.jireh7enterprises.com/LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jireh-7-enterprises-3a076255/Speaking engagements: paularagon5@live.com or call 720-429-9274 Follow Labrador LendingWEBSITE: https://labradorlending.com/LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/company/71512077/ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/labradorlendingINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/labradorlendingllc/YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChYrpCUlqFYLy4HngRrmU9QConnect with Jamie LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamie-bateman-5359a811/TWITTER: https://twitter.com/batemanjamesINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/batemanjames11/Investment Opportunity Are you an accredited investor interested in monthly cash flow from an investment backed by physical real estate?

Stand Firm in Your Freedom The Harvest Principle, Part 2 Galatians 6:7-10 (AMP) – [7] Do not be deceived and deluded and misled; God will not allow Himself to be sneered at (scorned, disdained, or mocked by mere pretensions or professions, or by His precepts being set aside.) [He inevitably deludes himself who attempts to delude God.] For whatever a man sows, that and that only is what he will reap. [8] For he who sows to his own flesh (lower nature, sensuality) will from the flesh reap decay and ruin and destruction, but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. [9] And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint. [10] So then, as occasion and opportunity open up to us, let us do good [morally] to all people [not only being useful or profitable to them, but also doing what is for their spiritual good and advantage]. Be mindful to be a blessing, especially to those of the household of faith [those who belong to God's family with you, the believers]. I. Two Universal Spiritual Principles A. Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. B. Do not be deceived: A man reaps what he sows. 1. The principle of sowing and reaping is a universal spiritual law that holds true in every context. 2. The principle of sowing and reaping can apply either in a positive or a negative way. a. Sow to please the sinful nature and you will reap destruction. b. Sow to please the Spirit and you will reap abundant life and eternal life. II. Three Exhortations for Doing Good A. Do not become WEARY in doing good. 1. Weary (ekkakeo) means “to be weak, to fail in heart; to be utterly spiritless, to be wearied out, exhausted; to lack courage, to lose heart, to be fainthearted.” (Ephesians 3:13; 2 Corinthians 4:1) Ephesians 3:13 (NIV) – [13] I ask you, therefore, not to be DISCOURAGED because of my sufferings for you, which are your glory. 2 Corinthians 4:1 (NIV) – [1] Therefore, since through God's mercy we have this ministry, we do not LOSE HEART. 2. Good (kalos) means “beautiful, magnificent; good, excellent in its nature and characteristics, and therefore well adapted to its ends; beautiful by reason of purity of heart and life; praiseworthy; morally good, noble, honorable.” B. We will reap a HARVEST at the proper time if we do not give up. 1. The promise is that we will be rewarded for our faithfulness. (Matthew 25:21; 1 Corinthians 3:11-15) Matthew 25:21 (NIV) – [21] “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!’” 1 Corinthians 3:11-15 (NIV) – [11] For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. [12] If any man builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, [13] his work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man’s work. [14] If what he has built survives, he will receive his reward. [15] If it is burned up, he will suffer loss; he himself will be saved, but only as one escaping through the flames. 2. There are two qualifiers for reaping a harvest: a. The first is that we will reap a harvest at the PROPER TIME. b. The second is that we will reap a harvest if we DO NOT GIVE UP. 1) Give up (ekluo) means “to loose or unloose as a bowstring; to weaken, to relax, to exhaust; to have one’s strength relaxed, to become feeble through exhaustion; to grow weak, to grow weary, to be tired out; to become despondent.” (Matthew 15:32; Hebrews 12:3) Matthew 15:32 (AMP) – [32] Then Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, I have pity and sympathy and am deeply moved for the crowd, because they have been with Me now three days and they have nothing [at all left] to eat; and I am not willing to send them away hungry, lest they FAINT or become EXHAUSTED on the way. Hebrews 12:3 (AMP) – [3] Just think of Him Who endured from sinners such grievous opposition and bitter hostility against Himself [reckon up and consider it all in comparison with your trials], so that you may not grow WEARY or EXHAUSTED, LOSING HEART and RELAXING and FAINTING in your minds. 2) We cannot give into the temptation to coast or to let down our guard or to become complacent and apathetic. C. Therefore, let us take every OPPORTUNITY to good to all people, especially other Christians. 1. Because we know that all good that we do will be rewarded by God, then we should be encouraged to continue to take advantage of every opportunity to do good to all people. 2. A person is to provide for the needs of his own household first before he meets the needs of others. (1 Timothy 5:8) 1 Timothy 5:8 (NIV) – [8] If anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his immediate family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. 3. In the same way, while we are to be willing to help anyone in need, the priority must first be for those who are fellow believers. (Romans 12:13; 3 John 5-8) Romans 12:13 (NIV) – [13] Share with God’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality. 3 John 5-8 (NIV) – [5] Dear friend, you are faithful in what you are doing for the brothers, even though they are strangers to you. [6] They have told the church about your love. You will do well to send them on their way in a manner worthy of God. [7] It was for the sake of the Name that they went out, receiving no help from the pagans. [8] We ought therefore to show hospitality to such men so that we may work together for the truth.

Serving Jesus comes with so many benefits! I am thankful for salvation, but even beyond that, the Lord wants to enlarge our spirit to contain the great blessings he has purposed to pour out in us. If things are difficult and hard right now…DO NOT GIVE UP and DO NOT QUIT! The Lord has something in store for you! Lean into his hand of blessing and power, and expect by faith that he has better promises and better outcomes for your life. Jesus won't leave you, and he won't forsake you, but he will do EVERYTHING he has promised in his good word towards us! #RemnantWarriorsRise #AnsweredPrayer #intercessoryPrayer #GodIsGood

Let me share my story with you and hope to help some of you understand you're true potential. 2018- I was separated from the US NAVY under Honorable conditions due to being dropped two ranks from E-5 down to E-3 (For all my civilians, that's like going from supervisor to cleaning the bathrooms) 2019- I got a job as an acquisition manager helping people get out of timeshares that were run by a "good friend" of mine who ended up screwing me out of 30,000 dollars in commission. Soon after I went to San Diego, CA to then start working security and ended up in the club scene. Well from there I started partying from Thursday-Sunday Ingesting every drug you can think of and wasting my life for 3% on every table I sold. 2020- I got the chance to work for our previous president Mr. Donald Trump, and this was where I traveled for 6-8 months and was at every rally in the US controlling 25,000 people to make sure his speech did not get interrupted. The problem was I would make a good amount of money and go back to San Diego and continue to party and do drugs..my life was going nowhere. 2021- I moved to Orlando FL where I thought I met the love of my life to soon realize that the person would make the biggest change in my life by realizing I need to eliminate the toxicity and negative influences to move forward. May 2021- Limitless Coaching was put into full effect and partnered with the top companies in the world for meal prep services, Hormone Replacement Therapy, and 1st Phorm for all supplements. July 2021- I now run one of the TOP Online Coaching businesses of 2021 specializing in CEOs, Veterans, and first responders. We are partnered with two veteran nonprofits totaling 57,000 veterans and now I provide consulting to other coaches to make an even bigger impact in the world that we all live in. The moral of this story is DO NOT GIVE UP! We are meant to Execute, Fail, and then you will SUCCEED Keep Going and Never STOP! "Live Limitless"
Sunday June 6 - 6.6.21 Legendary Energy Creation Day - Trey Woods and I go over how important it is to believe in your vision and truly envision the future you truly desire. Ours and yours should be limitless, endless growth and expansion. As humans, we are happiest when we are being productive i.e. producing or learning or creating. If you are not doing these things on a daily basis, you aren't living. You are dying and working to live. It is okay to currently work a 9-5 Job, but please put in the work into yourself after, during, and before work. If you are not doing this, you will see your life move in a circular pattern, or to be frank, just STAGNANT! I Dare You To Deal With Fears By Staring At Them Right In The Face & RUN THROUGH IT! Do not worry about failure, we all must fail to succeed. DO NOT FOLD, DO NOT GIVE UP. RIP MOMMA WOODS

Understanding narcissistic toxic behavioral patterns can give you a distinct advantage against your ex. When you realize what you are dealing with you can predict what they will do and anticipate their “moves”. Duane shares a conversation where his ex said, “you don’t even know me” and how that was the catalyst to seeing behind the narcissistic vail. We then have a return caller who shares how their trail went after having a horrible GAL report and testimony. Duane then talks about how we can allow ourselves to fall into the pit of despair and start to give up. It is important to realize it isn’t over until a decision is made, so DO NOT GIVE UP. We discuss a comment from the caller about the DSD community and Duane talks about the DSD Discord server as another way for people to connect. We then have another caller who shares how when you understand “cluster-b” personality disorders you’ll understand how they can destroy their own stories and arguments in court. This then moves the conversation to how a toxic narcissistic ex will NEVER miss an opportunity to drive a wedge between you and your children. A listener then comments how their ex said to them the kids will be able to chose where they are going to live. Duane talks about his fear when that was going on in his story. Finally we end the discussion about how they will use anything they can, such as doctors, to try and control your time with the kids.Participate in the show!During the show you can call in live at1 (424) 373-54831 (424) DSD-LIVEhttps://www.callinstudio.com/show/DSDLIVE (Web Interface - free dialing)You can also leave a voicemail through the DSD websiteTable of Contents00:00 - Start of show04:20 - Discussion - Use their patterns to your advantage15:04 - Comment - You don’t even know me - what is really meant16:25 - Comment - Staying in “strategic mode” isn’t healthy18:40 - Caller - Calling to report how trial went31:58 - Discussion - Do not fall into the pit of despair | not over until its over36:12 - Discussion - The DSD Community and DSD Discord39:34 - Caller - The trap a cluster-b will destroy their own argument41:56 - Discussion - How attorney’s “believe” what their client says47:58 - Comment - They never miss an opportunity to drive a wedge51:50 - Comment - Kids going to be able to choose where to live55:53 - Comment - Using anything they can to control59:12 - End of show wrap-up

In this episode, we speak with recent Natural Resources graduate, West Lambert, who shares about his next adventure and the steps that led him to this great accomplishment. West also shares his tips and tricks that he learned through his process of applying to federal positions: Unless it is a graduate pathways position, you must have either relevant experience (be a range intern not soil con according to them) OR actually have your degree by the closing date of the job posting (not within two months as I've been told in the past). Always keep every syllabus for each course you take or some form of paperwork that describes what you did. This becomes especially important for courses that do not have a specific course description online. Ex: internships, field tours, projects, etc. Keep a standing record (spreadsheet) of your coursework including what category it falls under and the term/semester conversion. Make sure your resume and transcripts are up to date and any relevant jobs/internships match WORD FOR WORD the qualifications they are looking for. Make sure your graduation date is on something. If the course doesn't specifically say "range" (not shrublands, grasslands, wildlands) in the title or in the course description online ATTACH THE SYLLABUS. DO NOT GIVE UP. If you feel that you have been wrongly disqualified, ask why! And then ask for a second opinion (for it to be escalated). I have been through 7 HR people! All but the last one told me I wasn't qualified. Thanks for sharing your advice, West! And congratulations on obtaining the Rangeland Management Specialist position with the Natural Resource Conservation in Pendleton, OR! Best wishes to you in this next chapter!

HAPPY MONDAY MOTIVATION! Welcome back to the weekly podcast, No More Excuses! Thanks for listening, sharing and for taking a few moments out to invest in YOU! How was last week? Even with the Holiday in the middle of the week, mine was full of client meetings, calls, committee meeting and preparation for a team building event I am facilitating in Seattle! How was yours? It was ironic that almost all of my client conversations aligned with the last couple week's theme of the podcasts! Environments, self-care, boundaries, and NOT GIVING UP! I had one small group where two clients said "enough is enough", and made big improvements in their environment, including getting rid of things that no longer serve a purpose, as well as saying NO! HUGE SUCCESSES for them! I also had a conversation with a new client who hadn't looked at her goals since March. WHY? Because shit has gone sideways and she doesn't think she'll be able to achieve one specific, VERY BIG goal. "But why give up? How close can you get?" I asked her! In last week's podcast I asked you to review your month, but more so your YEAR. How has it gone? What can you do? DO NOT GIVE UP! That's the first thing you can do! Listen in this week, then email me and tell me ONE GOAL you are off-track on, and what you can do to get as close as possible. And if you are just frustrated with where you are and can't figure out how to adjust... click here to schedule a session! YOU CAN DO THIS! Have a great week and I look forward to hearing from you! Cheers! Sandi
This podcast is coming straight from the heart and a real-life scenario. What do you do when you think you cannot go on! When you know you must do something, but the odds are against you?

Welcome to Bark & Wag 15 Minute Vet Talk – I am your host Polly ReQua Today we are talking to Kersti Nieto, trainer at Dog Training Camp USA in Raleigh, NC on tips on having your dog come when they are called. Welcome Kersti...... When dogs fail to come when called their behavior falls into one of two categories: active or passive disobedience. With passive disobedience, the dog doesn’t come and it isn’t doing much else besides. Instead it simply stands, sits or lies down and watches its owner call. Either the dog is apprehensive of approaching (a major temperament emergency), or it fails to see the relevance of the owner’s request and simply can not be bothered (a minor trainingemergency). With active disobedience, however, not only does the dog not come, but also, it has a darn good time not coming. This is a major training emergency. Why dogs don’t come: Apprehensiveness If your dog is apprehensive of coming when called, there is only one reason… You! Take yet another look in the mirror. Your dog is afraid of you or of what you have done to it in the past – probably intentionally punishing the dog for coming when called. Whatever the reason, just solve the problem right away. Even though apprehensiveness is a dire temperament emergency, take your time. Get sweet and get small. Keep backing up and calling the dog, tossing food treats if necessary. Once the dog approaches to take food from your hand, practice the ‘grab tests’. Build your dog’s confidence, and its so-called obedience problem will disappear. Why dogs don’t come: Irrelevance Your dog understands what you want it to do but it just does not see the point. Also, your dog may be tired, bored, or lethargic. For large dogs especially, it is a big deal to get up and lumber towards the owner. When they get there, it better be worthwhile. Well, it wasn’t! And now the dog is on strike. The dog came when called many times before, but nothing ever happened. Perhaps the owner even practiced recallsto the point of utter boredom. This problem is so common; this is what training is all about. I would say that 95% of a successful training program should comprise not just teaching dogs what we want them to do but teaching them why they should do it! The solution is to revamp the relevancy training program (see sections on Play Recalls and Life Rewards). If your dog does not come, give it a reason to come. Tell it to “Hustle,” back up quickly and cause some kind of disturbance – rattle the furniture, bang on the door, kick the dog’s food bowl or drop to the ground, kick you feet in the air and let out an eerie maniacal wail. The idea is to get your dog’s attention, and so do something attention-getting. Whatever you do though, eventually your dog will come. When it does, on no account punish or reprimand the dog. Don’t even let on that you are grumpy. Instead, let your dog know what it missed by not getting there earlier. Waggle an extremely tasty treat in front of the dog’s nose, tease the dog with the treat and then give it to another dog, or even eat it yourself. Or show the dog its empty food bowl and say, “Oh dear, dindins all gone!” Or drop the dog’s leash on the floor and lament, “Deary, deary me, slow-poke snail-pooch missed his walky, walky, walkies.” The dog will soon grasp the relevance of coming when called. Lazy dogs often refuse to come when called because they know the owner will eventually come to them. Many owners start towards the dog the instant they call it. Perhaps the owner has no confidence the dog will come and so, completes the recall himself with food treat in hand, as if auditioning as a waiter. Never go back to the dog. Move away from it, and make it come to you. This advice, of course, refers to a dog that is not coming but is not doing much else. If, however, your dog is sniffing, running, playing, or otherwise having a great time not coming, it is a different story altogether. Every second your dog does not come, its alternative activities are potently reinforcing its disobedience. Why dogs don’t come: Active disobedience Dogs run off and/or refuse to come when called because they have discovered play and training are mutually exclusive. Consequently, the dog feels the need to run away to have fun. The dog is afraid to go back to its owner because it knows the good times will end. And some dogs are afraid to return to the owner for fear of punishment. For a dog to blatantly ignore the owner’s request to come and to flagrantly continue having a good time is a major training emergency. You must do something drastic, and quickly! Every second you dither around and allow your dog to continue amusing itself strongly rewards the dog for not coming. Basically, your lack of action passively trains your dog to be disobedient! The first item on the agenda is to catch your dog. All the time your dog is running at large, its life is at risk. Once your dog is safely on leash, do not even consider letting it off-leash again until you have trained your dog to come when called, no matter what it is doing or what the distraction. Step 1: Catch the dog A distracted, fleeing dog is much easier to catch than most people think since the dog is usually running towards a distraction. Just walk up to your dog, put it on leash and give it a treat. If, however, your dog is running from you, shouting and running after the dog usually makes it harder to catch. Instead, it is better to run away from the dog, maniacally laughing and shouting the dog’s name and then, to drop down on the ground, jerking all fours in the air whilst emitting a high-pitched screech. Most dogs come running pronto. Maybe you will not feel inclined to practice this routine in the park in the course of everyday training, but do remember it for an emergency. It works. And it has already saved the life of several dogs. Alternatively, you will have to physically and mentally chase the dog down. Unless you have practiced for emergencies, generally it is a bad idea to shout “Come Here.” If your dog did not come when called in a normal tone of voice, it is unlikely to come if it thinks you are angry. It is much better to shout an emergency, inhibitory command, such as “Sit!” or “Down!” As a rule during regular training, never switch commands on a dog. Once the dog has been instructed to do something, it must do it. The only exception would be switching to an easier, emergency command in times of stress, confusion, or distraction, as in the above example to change from “Come Here” to “Sit.” Shout “SIT! SIT! SIT!” and continue to do so until your dog sits, and then say, “Good Sit-Stay, Rover.” DO NOT GIVE UP! You cannot give up. You have got to catch your dog. If your dog does not sit, but it looks as though it might, lighten-up on the tone and volume, and repeat the command to “Sssssit!,” more softly, yet with an emphatic tone. Once your dog sits, tell it to sit-stay, and praise it for a while before you try approaching the dog. Continue to praise the dog in a normal happy voice while you approach to take it by the collar and offer a treat. Approach your dog slowly, and do not get angry, otherwise the dog may bolt again. If you decide to call your dog to you, call it eagerly and happily, running away from your dog as you do so. No matter how long you have been chasing the dog and no matter what the dog has done when running at large, praise the dog as soon as it starts to come back to you. In fact, praise it every step of the way. When you have the dog on leash, praise it, pet it and maybe give a treat. No matter how difficult this is to do, do it! If you want the dog to eventually come reliably, quickly and eagerly, you had better reward the dog on those unreliable occasions it comes eventually, slowly and dejectedly. There is no point in getting angry at the dog; it was you, who made the mistake of letting an untrained dog off-leash. NEVER NEVER NEVER punish your dog when it comes back to you. If you do, your dog will take longer to come back the next time, when you, silly owner, let your untrained dog off-leash yet again. Even if your dog has created mayhem in the park when it ran off, if you punish it when it comes back, you will still have a dog which creates mayhem, but now it takes even longer to get under control. If you want to punish your dog, obviously punish it when it is in the act of creating mayhem, but then reward it as it comes back. If you are annoyed, angry, furious or beside yourself with rage, for the meantime, hide your emotions. When the dog is safely back at home, go and bite a pillow, beat a breeze-block or otherwise punish yourself. By all means, let off steam, but do not abuse the dog in the process. Do not punish the dog for your mistakes – you, yes you, let the dog off-leash, left the front door open or kept the dog in a yard knowing full-well it was not escape-proof. Please be happy your dog is still alive. Take a break, and then get back to some sensible training. Step 2: Train the dog Many owners throw up their hands in despair when their dog runs amuck in the park and fails to come when called. Certainly, training any dog to be reliable in an off-leash and distracting setting can be a daunting prospect which requires a substantial commitment on behalf of the owner. In reality, though, many park-problem dogs are also downright disobedient in a variety of other simpler and safer settings. Few dogs come when called in a safe, fenced dog park. Few will come in dog training class, and some will not even come in from their own backyard. And some dogs will not even sit reliably (as in 100% of the time) when on leash. The point is there is so much training that can be done in safe areas to build a firm foundation of basic control to ready your dog for mastering off-leash, distance, Olympic obedience. Please make sure your dog is reliable at home, in class and on-leash before even thinking of allowing it to run willy-nilly and get itself into trouble in a public place. There are plenty of safe (fenced) areas to train dogs while they are playing off-leash. The most obvious example would be a dog training class. Or, for example, form a doggy play/training group, and practice in a different owner’s backyard each week. Also, it is worth bearing in mind that your dog may be satisfactorily exercised and trained on a long (50-100 feet) line. It is smart to keep your dog on leash and out of trouble. However, it would still be wise to prepare for future potential emergencies and proof the dog to “Sit” or “Come” when you shout. Otherwise, if you shout at your dog when it is running away, it will probably run faster. Heaven forbid, this happens when your dog is running towards a group of children or a busy street. We want the dog to have the confidence to understand that a shouted command conveys urgency and not anger. Even though you may have no intention of letting your dog off-leash again, another person might let the dog escape. Practice training the dog to sit reliably in safe and controlled, yet much more distracting situations, e.g., when playing with other dogs in a fenced yard. Many dog owners casually let rambunctious dogs off-leash to play and then leash the dog after it comes when called. Now, if an off-leash romp is the reward de rigeur in suburban dogdom, then ending said walk must represent the biggest disappointment or punishment, i.e., unruly behavior is reinforced, and obedient responses are inhibited. This is back to front. At the very least, instruct your dog to sit-stay before letting it off-leash. And if the dog wants to play, obviously the best reward for coming when called is to let your dog go play again. The answer to most recall problems is to repeat “Come Here – Sit – Go Play” over and over throughout the entire play session. Training game: Play recalls To reliably come when called, your dog must learn that play and training need not be mutually exclusive, i.e., coming when called is neither the end of the world nor necessarily the end of the play session. By integrating recalls into play sessions, your dog will learn that if it comes immediately, you will say “Go Play” immediately, whereas if it does not come immediately, the play session is temporarily terminated until the dog eventually comes, i.e., the dog has to come anyway. Basically, we have put Rover’s destiny in Rover’s paws; Rover can end play by being disobedient, and once the play session has been terminated, only Rover can restart it by obediently going to his owner. By giving the problem (playing with other dogs) a name (“Go Play”), the problem behavior becomes a reward for coming when called. Every time the owner interrupts the play session and requests the dog to come, the owner may then say “Go Play” and thus reward the dog for coming. To keep the play session going, all the dog has to do is to continue to come when called. Work in a safe area – indoors, in a fenced yard, tennis court, training class or dog park. Initially, work with your dog and just one other – his favorite doggy friend. Whisper-request the dog to come – “Rover, Come Here.” If your dog comes, take hold of its collar, praise, pet, pat, hug and treat the critter before saying “Go Play”, i.e., just a short, enjoyable time-out from play. If your dog does not come, command it to come – an instructive reprimand – “ROVER!!! Come! Here!” Do not progressively escalate volume and tone over several commands (this would systematically desensitize the dog to your voice). Go from the whisper-request to the all-out, attention-getting command within one second. We want the dog to learn what comes out of our mouths is meaningful, not meaningless. If your dog comes in response to your reprimand, praise the dog, touch its collar, waggle a food treat in front of its nose but do not give it to the dog. It would be silly to reward your dog after you had to call him twice. Instead, bait the dog with the food, invitingly whisper-request “Come Here,” back up two steps, take the dog’s collar, give it the treat and say “Go Play,” i.e., in order to get a treat and be told “Go Play,” your dog has to come immediately following a single request. If you have to tell the dog twice, repeat the recall until the dog gets it right. The hardest part is getting the dog’s attention when it is playing. Once the dog comes, you now have its attention, and it will likely follow the next instruction. If your dog does not start towards you within one second following your reprimand, the other owner immediately takes hold of Rover’s playmate to curtail the play session. Once Rover’s playmate has been successfully corralled, it is now your job to get Rover to come. It does not matter how long it takes, Rover will come eventually, if only because there’s not much else to do. Once your dog does come, repeat the recall (as described above) until Rover comes on the first request, and then, tell it “Go Play” at which point the other owner instantly releases Rover’s playmate, and the play session resumes once more. Getting your dog to come the first time is the hardest. But, as with all troubleshooting procedures, it gets easier with each attempt. In fact, have the other owner time how long it takes for you to get your dog to come, and you will soon have proof of dramatic improvement within just a few trials. Alternate “Come Here” and “Go Play” over and over, until your dog reliably comes instantaneously in the presence of its favorite playmate. Then, work with another playmate, and then, work with all three together. Eventually, your dog will respond reliably within a large play group.

Let's Coach with Carolyn - Career Strategist, Leadership and Life Coach
There are so many factors influencing our children to grow up faster and experience things in life much sooner then we may have had to. In many cases they are getting direction from the media, friends and video games that may not be providing the guidance needed to truly grow into productive members of society and to live amazing, fulfilling lives. Men once had a certain to role to play in society, one that some believe is slowly fading away as they fall victim to the challenges life places in front of them. Every boy should become a man. Age does not make one a man. How he chooses to live his life and the decisions he makes – that becomes the measure of a man. The path to manhood is one that should be carefully navigated but many stumble along the way. Our guest this week, Eric Elliott, has a mission to assist "Boys" with Godly guidance on their journey to manhood and to help those that may have fallen off the path to know there is hope – Do Not Give Up! Eric is an author, speaker, husband and father who, on several occasions in his own life could have easily thrown in the towel and choose a life that would have taken him on a much different path. Instead he stayed strong in his faith using his pain and experiences for victory. His book, “Onward to Manhood: Establishing Godly Masculinity” serves as a blueprint that lays the foundation for the journey to manhood. In his words “in the soul of every man, there is a tug-of-war between insanity and divinity. The winner is...the one you feed the most. “ Tune in to Let's Coach as Eric shares how to negotiate and navigate the journey of manhood and how every boy can achieve success and win his very own tug-of-war.
