At the turn of the common era, the Jewish communities of Roman Palestine saw the organization of a small group of literate Jewish men who devoted their lives to the interpretation and teaching of their sacred ancestral texts. In How Rabbis Became Experts: Social Circles and Donor Networks in Jewish Late Antiquity (Princeton University Press, 2025), Krista Dalton shows that these early rabbis were not an insular specialist group but embedded in a landscape of Jewish piety. Drawing on the writings of rabbis in Roman Palestine from the second through fifth centuries CE, Dalton illuminates the significance of social relationships in the production of rabbinic expertise. She traces the social interactions—everyday instances of mutual exchange, from dinner parties to tithes and patronages—that fostered the perception of rabbis as experts. Dalton shows how the knowledge derived from the rabbis' technical skills was validated and recognized by others. Rabbis socialized and noshed with neighbors and offered advice and legal favors to friends. In exchange for their expert judgments, they received invitations, donations, appointments, and recognition. She argues that their status as Torah experts did not arise by virtue of being scholars but from their ability to persuade others that their mobilization of Jewish cultural resources was beneficial. Dalton describes the relational processes that made rabbinic expertise possible as well as the accompanying tensions; social interactions shaped the rabbis' domain of knowledge while also imposing expectations of reciprocity that had to be managed. Dalton's authoritative analysis demonstrates that a focus on friendship and exchange provides a fuller understanding of how rabbis claimed and defended their distinct expertise.

What is the role of ferroptosis, programmed cell death characterized by intracellular iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation, in the context of ischemic injury related to heart transplantation? In this episode, Associate Editor Dr. Amanda LeBlanc (University of Louisville) interviews authors Dr. Kenneth Liao and Dr. Nandan Mondal (both at Baylor College of Medicine), along with expert Dr. Zachary Kiernan (Virginia Commonwealth University) about the latest study by Li et al. The authors found that prolonged cold storage increases the susceptibility of hearts donated after brain death (DBD) to ferroptotic cell death. In contrast, however, the authors found that warm ischemic injury increased the risk for ferroptotic cell death in hearts donated after circulatory death (DCD). Li et al. found that targeting ferroptosis could be beneficial for optimizing cold preservation for DBD hearts, while interventions for DCD hearts should focus on the early phase of warm ischemia. Heart transplantation is the gold standard therapy for patients with medically refractory advanced heart failure. However, demand greatly exceeds supply of donor hearts. Listen as we discuss the current state of the heart transplantation field and the many challenges it faces.   Shiyi Li, Katherine V. Nordick, Abdussalam E. Elsenousi, Rishav Bhattacharya, Randall P.

Many nonprofits focus only on digital or direct mail, but you don't have to choose — nor should you. Donors crave cohesive, consistent experiences across multiple touchpoints, and getting your digital and direct mail efforts in sync can help you deliver. In this episode of the Go Beyond Fundraising podcast, we're talking with David Sacchetti, AVP of Client Strategy, about how a direct mail strategy backed by a complementary digital campaign can help solve the myriad challenges today's fundraisers face. No matter where you are with each channel, David offers actionable advice for leveling up. We discuss the importance of storytelling across channels to guide donors toward giving, with David sharing the digital trends that fit perfectly into a direct mail–first campaign. We also cover why your fundraising and marketing teams must work together to ensure brand impressions become donations.

Why have some called "repentance" the happiest word in the English language?In this episode, we're continuing a 4-part series on practical spiritual warfare following a NEW acrostic: S.O.N.G. (Stephanie encourages you to "Whistle while you warfare.") At Deeper Walk, we teach a "no drama," legal approach to spiritual warfare.So, after you've removed the permission the enemy is claiming to a place in your life and used your authority in Christ to "oust the enemy," it's time to walk out your repentance and nurture new habits. Repentance is more than the decision to renounce something but also the follow-through of walking that decision out. This often involves cultivating and nurturing new habits. What are some strategies for walking out our repentance with hope?Join us on the trail!

In this episode of The First Day from The Fund Raising School, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D., welcomes Dr. George Newman, Associate Professor of Management and Marketing at the University of Toronto, to explore one of the most deceptively simple questions in fundraising: Should we give donors gifts? Backed by years of research and a background in psychology, Dr. Newman offers a compelling and somewhat counterintuitive answer, those tote bags and coffee mugs might actually be hurting more than helping. Drawing from a series of six studies, Dr. Newman and his colleagues found that offering thank-you gifts in advance of a charitable contribution often results in lower donations. Why? Because it shifts the donor's mindset. Rather than giving out of altruism, they begin to interpret their action as transactional. This subtle psychological shift, known as motivation crowding, can reduce both the likelihood and amount of giving. “It raises a question that's not there when people are simply asked to give,” Newman explains. But all gifts are not created equal. Dr. Newman emphasizes that the timing and framing of a gift matters. When gifts are unexpected, given after the donation, they don't seem to trigger the same psychological conflict. And when the gift is tied to the organization's mission, such as a product made by program participants, the donor sees the item not as a perk but as a meaningful expression of the cause. Even simply reframing a thank-you gift as a tool to spread awareness can reverse the negative effect. The episode closes with practical advice for fundraisers navigating the delicate dance of donor appreciation. Dr. Newman encourages organizations to focus on understanding how donors perceive incentives, and to consider what a gift might unintentionally communicate about the nonprofit's values or efficiency. “It's not that all gifts are bad,” he says, “but how, when, and why they're given can make all the difference.” Bottom line: the best gifts support the story, not distract from it.

Episode 30: Americans for Prosperity, et al. v. Meyer, et al.Americans for Prosperity, et al. v. Meyer, et al., argued before Circuit Judges Johnnie B. Rawlinson, Patrick J. Bumatay, and Gabriel P. Sanchez in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on May 15, 2025. Argued by Derek L. Shaffer (on behalf of Americans for Prosperity, et al.) and David Kolker (on behalf of Intervenor-Defendant Voters' Right to Know) and Eric Fraser (on behalf of Arizona Citizens Clean Elections Commission).Background of the case, from the Institute for Free Speech amicus brief:Proposition 211 imposes sweeping disclosure rules unlike anything seen before. On every metric, the law expands on its predecessors. It covers more people, more speech, for a longer time. Where other laws narrow, Proposition 211 widens.….Proposition 211 expands on other disclosure rules in virtually every way. It does not limit disclosure to speech about elections, to speech close in time to elections, or to speech by those engaged mainly in election advocacy. It does not limit disclosure to donors who intend to support election advocacy, or even donors who know their dollars might be used for election advocacy. By expanding every part of an ordinary disclosure rule, Proposition 211 “accomplishes a shift in kind, not merely degree.” See Nat'l Fed'n of Indep. Bus. v. Sebelius, 567 U.S. 519, 583 (2012) (“NFIB”) (Roberts, C.J., op.). And that shift in kind turns a series of individually problematic provisions into a cataclysmic First Amendment violation.Statement of the Issues, from the Appellants' Opening Brief:Whether the district court erred in concluding that Proposition 211 is facially valid even though its disclosures are untethered to electoral activity, its burdens surpass the strength of the State's asserted interest, and its requirements are not narrowly tailored to the problems it purports to solve.Whether the district court erred in concluding that Proposition 211 is valid as applied to Appellants, even though Appellants alleged a reasonable probability that disclosure of their donors' names will subject them to threats, harassment, or reprisals.Whether the district court erred in concluding that Proposition 211 does not compel association even though its disclosure requirements tie organizations and their donors to candidates and causes irrespective of their actual beliefs.Resources:CourtListener docket page for Americans for Prosperity, et al. v. Meyer, et al.Appellants' Opening BriefDefendant-Appellees' Answering BriefAnswering Brief of Appellee-Intervenor DefendantAppellants' Reply BriefInstitute for Free Speech amicus briefThe Institute for Free Speech promotes and defends the political speech rights to freely speak, assemble, publish, and petition the government guaranteed by the First Amendment.

It's Fundraiser's Friday—and we engage in a candid, layered conversation about one of the sector's least addressed yet most persistent realities: stress. Specifically, the stress experienced by nonprofit fundraisers who juggle mounting expectations, emotional labor, event overload, and relentless revenue goals.Cohost Julia Patrick opens with a sobering observation: “We can't, as a sector, keep fundraisers going. They burn out and leave—an average tenure of only 18 months.” This sets the tone for a deep dive into the sources of that burnout and practical frameworks to address them. Cohost Tony Beall offers a powerful, centering reminder: “Give yourself the grace and accept that you need these things for yourself. There's no guilt in taking care of the caretaker.”Together, they examine six categories of stress fundraisers commonly endure: revenue pressure, donor expectations, event management demands, campaign overload, internal organizational scrutiny, and peer isolation. Instead of simply bemoaning these conditions, the cohosts provide tactical insight. From outsourcing logistics and investing in professional benefit auctioneers, to building strong volunteer committees and peer support networks, they propose both mindset shifts and structural solutions.Tony emphasizes the importance of open and honest communication—up, down, and across the organization—as one of the most effective antidotes to mounting stress. Equally essential, Julia insists, is understanding the often-forgotten emotional toll of donor relationships and campaign deadlines, which can be exacerbated by unrealistic leadership expectations or outdated traditions like “we've always done this event.”What emerges is a roadmap for healing a profession at risk. This isn't just an episode—it's a resource, a reset, and a reaffirmation for nonprofit professionals who need permission and tools to stay in the work they love.00:00:00 Welcome to Fundraisers Friday 00:01:00 Fundraiser burnout and short tenure 00:02:00 Revenue pressure and mental strain 00:05:00 Open communication as stress management 00:07:35 Donor relationships and expectation stress 00:10:00 Fundraisers as accidental event managers 00:13:15 Return on effort for fundraising events 00:16:00 Volunteer committees and shared ownership 00:18:10 Benefit auctioneers and event ROI 00:21:00 Campaign overload and tech tools 00:24:00 Internal scrutiny and team pressure 00:27:00 Peer support and professional associations 00:30:00 Final takeaways and call for self-care#NonprofitLeadership #FundraisingStress #DonorEngagement Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Episode Summary In this heartfelt episode, we sit down with Gretchen Starnes, Family Aftercare Manager with Network for Hope (Louisville), an organization that also supports families after the loss of a loved one through organ donation. Gretchen shares the deeply human side of her work—walking with families through the grief process, offering comfort, connection, and compassion in the wake of profound loss. We explore how the gift of life through donation can bring a measure of hope to unimaginable sorrow, and how Gretchen and her team help families navigate that journey with care and grace. ✨ Episode Highlights Gretchen Starnes discusses her role as a Family Aftercare Manager at Network for Hope. She describes the Aftercare Department's mission to support donor families and ensure their needs are met with compassion and understanding. Gretchen shares her personal journey, beginning as a Family Support Worker and transitioning to Aftercare, highlighting the critical role of empathy in her work. She reflects on working with grief and the full spectrum of emotions that come with it, reminding us: “There's nothing wrong with you when you're grieving.” Andi asks Gretchen about the myths and misconceptions surrounding grief and bereavement support. Gretchen explains that support systems often fade after the first year of loss and shares her experience that, for many, the second year is even harder. The organization offers 15 months of ongoing support through mailings, in-person meetings, and online resources. Families find healing and comfort in sharing stories, memories, and legacies of their loved ones. Donor families play a vital role in encouraging and supporting newly bereaved families through direct connections. Gretchen talks about the emotional challenges donor families face when reaching out to donor recipients and how the organization offers guidance through that process. They reflect on the powerful impact of the Holiday Honor Walk, which brings donor families together to foster connection, support, and healing. Gretchen emphasizes the importance of saving lives through organ donation and the value of being surrounded by a strong, supportive community. She also highlights the importance of self-care, a healthy team environment, and emotional support to navigate the difficulties inherent in this deeply meaningful work.

A legal dispute between Freedom From Religion Foundation and American Atheists over a donor's estate raised eyebrows—but the reality was far less dramatic. After questions emerged over a handwritten memo altering distribution plans, the parties sought transparency, not a fight. The case was settled amicably, with all organizations receiving more than expected. The panel unpacks lessons in ethics, optics, and legacy.News Source: Friendly Atheist by Hemant Mehta, April 8, 2025https://www.friendlyatheist.com/p/two-influential-atheist-groups-have?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=oa4eg&triedRedirect=trueThe Non-Prophets 24.16.3 with Scott Dickie, Jonathan Roudabush and Eli Slack Two Atheist Groups Settle Estate Dispute Peacefully

It's Fundraisers Friday, and Julia C. Patrick and Tony Beall are back with an episode full of big opinions, thoughtful advice, and even a little Kung Fu Panda wisdom. This time, they dive into real questions from viewers—and they don't hold back, with an honest and supportive conversation about the ins and outs of development work, from transparency in fundraising goals to the fine line of donor privacy.One of the first questions tackled: Should fundraising goals be shared organization-wide, or kept within the C-suite? Tony makes the case for balance: “The way you communicate goals matters—empathy and intention are key.” Julia adds that fundraisers often get put under pressure when goal updates trickle down without context or support.They also unpack a tricky topic—sharing top donor info with board members. Julia suggests, “Having a policy is key. Without it, you risk someone casually announcing a donor's gift in public.” Tony agrees but reminds us, “Unless the donor asked for anonymity, listing them for board review isn't a breach of privacy.”Perks for development staff? This duo has thoughts. Forget just bagels—Tony encourages nonprofits to ask staff what's actually meaningful to them. From car washes donated by board-owned businesses to flexible scheduling, he reminds us, “Perks don't have to cost much to show value.”Perhaps the most surprising take came on newsletters vs. annual reports. Tony challenged the typical approach, saying monthly newsletters can feel stale, while an annual report can be a dynamic, story-driven tool: “If I had to choose, I'd go with the annual report every time.”To close, Julia teases upcoming episodes (like managing fundraiser stress) and celebrates The Nonprofit Show nearing its 1300th episode. The vibe? Honest, empowering, and always real.—“There's no such thing as bad news or good news. There's just news.” —Tony Beall, quoting Kung Fu Panda, but owning the sentiment.Timestamps:00:00:00 Welcome to Fundraisers Friday!00:01:18 The joy of working with nonprofit leaders00:03:19 Teaser: Upcoming episode on fundraiser stress00:04:21 Should fundraising goals be shared org-wide?00:06:55 Communication, stress, and fear in fundraising updates00:09:49 Good news vs. bad news (Kung Fu Panda style)00:11:14 Donor privacy: Should boards know top givers?00:14:55 Low-cost perks for development staff00:19:20 Annual report vs. monthly newsletters—what's more important?00:24:08 How to maximize your annual report00:25:34 Tony's news from AFP and upcoming events00:27:11 Julia's Innovate Conference appearance00:28:13 Celebrating 1300 episodes! #FundraisersFriday #NonprofitLeadership #DevelopmentStrategyFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Four years ago I wanted to do something for the people who made a donation toward the upkeep of my podcasts. So, I asked them for song requests. It went so well I wanted to keep it going...and now here we are for a 5th round. Enjoy!

In this episode, we check into the often-overlooked ethical complexities of donor recognition. Randall explores how poorly managed recognition can lead to mission drift, disproportionate acknowledgments, access inequities, problematic associations, and excessive donor involvement. With high-level donors becoming more sophisticated and competitive, nonprofits must be clear and intentional about how recognition aligns with values and long-term strategy. A thoughtful, transparent practice grounded in ethics is essential for sustainable fundraising and donor trust.

In this episode of The First Day from The Fund Raising School, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D., welcomes back Rick Dunham, founder and chair of Dunham+Company, for an insightful breakdown of donor confidence heading into 2025. Drawing on a fresh national survey of 1,500 active donors (each having given at least $20 in the past year), Dunham reports that 91% of donors plan to continue giving, an encouraging signal in a landscape often marred by doom-and-gloom headlines. Even more uplifting? A robust 79% intend to give the same or more this year, marking one of the strongest confidence ratings since 2020. The study reveals that this wave of confidence is largely buoyed by an improving economic outlook. Donors' optimism about the future, especially in the wake of recent elections, appears to be boosting charitable intent. But Dunham emphasizes that while economic conditions matter, nonprofits themselves still carry the torch. Communication is king, or at least, the royal herald. Donors reported that consistent, clear messaging from organizations significantly influenced their giving decisions. The takeaway? Don't ghost your supporters, keep them in the loop and show them how their gifts are making a difference. Even in uncertain times, a compelling case for support remains your fundraising MVP. Of course, economic anxieties haven't vanished entirely. Inflation has resurfaced as a top reason why 14% of donors expect to give less, despite the rate sitting under 3% at the time of the study. It's not just math, it's mindset. Dunham points to the psychological impact of inflation, suggesting that how people feel about the economy often outweighs the actual numbers. Generational giving also enters the spotlight, with millennials stealing the show by donating 18% more than Gen X, despite earning an average of $23,000 less. Wrapping things up, Dunham serves a double scoop of strategic advice: don't underestimate boomers, who still control the majority of wealth, and make your online giving experience stupid simple. With 70% of respondents giving online and mobile usage on the rise, your website needs to be donor-friendly and frustration-free. And yes, even in our digital world, younger donors are oddly thrilled to receive physical mail. So whether it's an email, a postcard, or a perfectly timed text, keep the relationship warm and the giving process easy. Because at the end of the day, confidence isn't just about numbers, it's about connection.

In this episode, we take BTB into the MCU with a conversation between Dion Evans and Cole Middleton as they explore the intersection of superheroes, cultural representation, and racial reconciliation.

They talk about Stan Lee's intentionality in creating these characters. They also critique the trend of race swapping in superhero films. Ultimately, Dion and Cole highlight the importance of representation in pop culture in helping individuals feel seen and understood.Join in the conversation on our social media pages on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to let us know your thoughts on this episode!Executive Producer - Latasha MorrisonProducer  - Sarah ConnatserLinks:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Become a Donor of Be the Bridge⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Connect with Be the Bridge:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BTB YouTube⁠⁠Join the online community BTB Connect⁠Connect with Latasha Morrison:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Not all views expressed in this interview reflect the values and beliefs of Latasha Morrison or the Be the Bridge organization.

Keeping donors engaged is just as important as attracting them. In this episode, we dive into proven donor retention strategies that help nonprofits build lasting relationships, boost recurring giving, and create loyal communities of support. Whether you're a seasoned fundraiser or just getting started, these tips will help you turn one-time donors into lifelong champions.

Ever faced a frustrated donor? If you've been fundraising for any length of time, chances are you've been on the receiving end of donor displeasure. Donor frustration comes in many forms - from upset letters and negative social media comments to exasperated responses when you reach out. Andrew and Rhen tackle these awkward situations with practical advice for becoming a supportive listener. Their key insight: when donors express frustration, it often stems from genuine care about your organization and a desire to see improvement. As a fundraiser, learning to separate a donor's anger from their feelings about you personally is essential for navigating these challenging interactions successfully.

The recent sweeping cuts to USAID and other federal programs have rattled fundraisers across the country and in all sectors. Uncertainty is widespread as nonprofit leaders wait to see just what the fallout will be. Whether your organization was impacted or is anticipating a budget shortfall, scaling back on riskier strategies like acquisition can be tempting. In fact, media spending, testing, and other efforts that help you reach potential donors are often the first things to go. But if you're not seeking new donors, how will you replace those you lose through natural attrition? What about the ones who have to give less due to their own financial hardships? In this episode of the Go Beyond Fundraising podcast, we're making the case for prioritizing acquisition — especially when you've been hit with unexpected budget cuts. Two Allegiance Group + Pursuant AVPs, Erin Robertson and J.C. Bouvier, share how you can use this difficult time to attract new prospects. And if the budget crunch hasn't hit yet, they have tips to help you prepare. By staying true to your mission and leading into your opportunities, you can weather this storm

In this jaw-dropping and soul-stirring episode, Jeff Allen shares how he went from a regular father fighting for his son's life to the winner of MrBeast's $10 million Beast Games. But this isn't just a story about money. It's about purpose, prayer, and the unshakable belief that Hashem can turn anything—even a game show—into a divine mission. After discovering that his son Lucas has a rare brain disorder with no cure, Jeff devoted his life to raising awareness and funding research. Winning Beast Games wasn't about fame, it was about giving his son, and others like him, a fighting chance.
