Ask Us A Question!Over the past two decades, film has fundamentally changed the world of flyfishing. It has introduced anglers to far-off destinations, inspired countless adventures, elevated conservation issues, created new fishing heroes, and transformed the way we see and experience the sport. From 1992's A River Runs Through It, to the early days of The Drake Video Awards and the Fly Fishing Film Tour, and now to YouTube, social media, and an endless stream of digital content, moving images have become one of the most powerful forces shaping modern flyfishing. Few people have had a better front-row seat to that evolution than filmmaker Chris Patterson.In this episode of Waypoints, Jim sits down with his longtime friend, traveling partner, and Confluence Films co-founder to explore the stories behind the stories — and the incredible career that shaped Chris as a filmmaker. From three decades shooting Warren Miller ski films and working on Hollywood productions like Inception, to creating the flyfishing classics Drift, Rise, Connect, Waypoints, and Providence, Chris has spent his career capturing people, places, and moments that make us want to explore. Together, Jim and Chris look back at the rise of flyfishing film, the adventures and personalities that defined an era, and the profound impact film has had on the sport — for better and for worse. It's a conversation about adventure, creativity, conservation, changing technology, and ultimately the power of a great story to make us see flyfishing — and the world around us — a little differently.Waypoints is brought to you by PatagoniaTo bring their gear to life, Patagonia is motivated by relentless curiosity and a passion for the wild. They evaluate hundreds of materials, build dozens of prototypes and spend seasons punishing them in the world's most extreme conditions. The work is the guide, and Patagonia never tires of exploring, learning and improving. For the past two years, the Yellow Dog Flyfishing travel team has worked closely with Patagonia to test and refine the all-new Patagonia River Salt Wading Boots II in destinations ranging from New Zealand to the Seychelles. Featured throughout the Yellow Dog Field Reports series, these boots have become the go to choice for our team thanks to their Vibram® Megagrip soles, durable quick drying construction, speed to get on and off, and support built for both freshwater and saltwater environments.- Follow us on Instagram- Follow us on Facebook- Check out our YouTube Page- View the official Yellow Dog w...

"No data, no agent. Bad data, bad agent. Good data, good agent." Cris Mendes thinks data readiness is the number one reason the agentic enterprise fails, and he has the receipts — he ran the experiment on his own team before he sold it to anyone else.He's VP of Revenue at Momentum.io, acquired by Salesforce in large part because of the go-to-market motion he built there. Before that: Drift, Airtable, and LogMeIn. Before all of it, U.S. Navy search and rescue swimmer. I've known him almost twenty years and introduced him to LogMeIn myself, so take the enthusiasm here with whatever salt you need.His argument is that everyone is buying agents on top of a data layer that was never built. The average customer conversation moves about eight thousand words; maybe eight of them make it into the CRM. Companies don't have a first-party data layer, they have a human-input data layer — and that's what every agentic project quietly runs aground on.The story worth the listen: Momentum had a brutal drop-off after the first call. Rather than sampling a few calls and guessing at messaging or ICP, Cris pushed 800 first calls through deep research and got one answer back — the reps weren't prescribing a next step. So he had Momentum listen to the last ten minutes of every call and fire a clip into Slack whenever an AE either didn't prescribe or tried and missed. With humor, so it didn't read as surveillance. Prescription went through the roof. As he puts it: a team respects what you inspect, but you can't inspect everything — unless the inspecting is automated.WHAT WE COVER- Selling shovels in a gold rush, and why structured data was the bet- Why "not everything called an agent is an agent" — deciding vs. automating- The last ten minutes of a sales call as sacred ground, and how to enforce that at scale- Bringing AI into QBRs: "it got so real so fast" — no more recency bias and self-preservation dressed up as a forecast- 10x growth six quarters running, zero attrition, 95% of the team over quota — and why he credits hiring over product- Whether AI cuts headcount: expands capacity, thins middle management, and the ~10% of companies that are actually AI-forward are hiring hardest- Auto-advancing pipeline stages on deal milestones instead of trusting a rep's guess — "otherwise you're just buying something like Clari to miss your forecast very expensively"- His IDEC hiring model, and why he'd trade relevant experience for intrinsics every timeCONNECT WITH CRISLinkedIn: Cris Mendes — Cris with no H, Mendes with an SMomentum.io---The GOATS of Growth has two Founding Sponsor slots open — category exclusive, $1,250/mo, in front of GTM leaders and founders who don't answer their phones.

In this episode, I'm joined by my friend and one of my favorite authors, Dr. Clark Carlton, for a conversation about Protestantism, Orthodoxy, and what happens when Christianity becomes less a lived, sacramental faith and more an ideology derived from a text. Clark takes us through the history of American Evangelicalism and Fundamentalism, including the Southern Baptist "Conservative Resurgence," and asks an important question: why do conservative Protestant movements seem to win battles while the larger drift continues? His answer goes much deeper than politics, wokeness, or simply blaming theological liberals. We get into sola scriptura, the relationship between Scripture and the Church, Fundamentalism's attempt to fight rationalism with rationalism, and Clark's argument that Orthodoxy begins from an entirely different understanding of Christianity—not primarily as a system of ideas, but as life in Christ and participation in His Body, the Church. Clark is also co-founder and editorial director of the Philip Ludwell III Orthodox Fellowship, which works to nurture and grow the Orthodox faith in the American South.

How does a faithful life slowly begin to drift? In this message, Pastor Harrison Conley looks at Gideon's later years in Judges 8 and shows how self-reliance, misplaced ambition, and even God's blessings can pull our hearts away from Him. Learn how to recognize drift before success, influence, or blessing becomes a substitute for dependence on God.

A common argument says immigration could help reverse America's secular drift because immigrants are assumed to be more religious than native-born Americans. Ryan Burge's analysis challenges that assumption. Using Cooperative Election Study data, he finds that immigrants are only slightly more religious than Americans whose families have been in the United States for generations—and not nearly enough to shift the country's overall religious trajectory. The larger story is assimilation: immigrants, like the broader American population, are becoming more secular over time. The post The Burge Report: Why Immigration Won’t Reverse America’s Secular Drift appeared first on Church Answers.

What happens when a church leadership team begins to slowly drift? The warning signs may be subtle—but over time, they can damage trust, create division, and undermine the health of the entire church. In this interview, Phil Cooke https://philcooke.com sits down with Chris Sonksen, founding pastor of SouthHills Church and founder of ChurchBOOM, to uncover six subtle behaviors that can tear leadership teams apart—and what senior pastors can do before small issues become major problems. Chris shares practical wisdom on how to recognize leadership drift, including pride in your leadership team, artificial harmony in lieu of true loyalty, the danger signs of isolation, when a critical spirit replaces a constructive one, and the gradual shutdown of a leader on your team. Leaders will gain wisdom in managing tensions while mindfully building towards a healthy church that can thrive.

Drift with me through an evening harbor where the light is folding itself gently into the water. This is a slow two-hour meditation for the moment you finally sit down, the moment your shoulders finally lower, the moment you remember you are allowed to rest.Tonight we drift past the boats and their reflections, under the first stars, beside a small lantern on the stone path. We listen to the gulls settling, to the small sounds of the harbor at night, to the slow turning of the lighthouse far away. We let the evening teach us about patience, about lingering, about letting the light come and letting it go.This is for you if you have had a long day. This is for you if you need a place to drift for a while, a place that does not ask anything of you, a place that simply holds the boats and the stars and you.Chapters:0:08 — Arrival at the Harbor4:29 — The Gulls Settle10:00 — The Small Sounds of Evening15:23 — The Boats and Their Reflections20:10 — The Moon Rises24:52 — Permission to Rest31:45 — The Breath of the Harbor37:13 — The Boats at Rest44:14 — The Light on the Water50:23 — The First Stars56:52 — The Lantern on the Path62:09 — Drifting Further Out67:44 — The Long Exhale73:37 — Gratitude Without Words80:17 — The Slow Return Home85:10 — The Long Line of Evening Sitters90:44 — The Whole Evening at Once93:55 — The Deep Stillness at the Heart105:15 — The Breath Carries You HomeThe Gentle Drift is a 120-minute meditation series for Your Quiet Moment, hosted by Priya Sharma.

Drifting" away from your plant-based intentions?  Here's how to gently turn back toward what you value.Maybe you started the year strong and now it's August and there's cheese back in the fridge? This one's for you.Inspired by the Gottman Institute's famous relationship research (hat tip to Maggie Reyes of The Marriage Life Coach Podcast), this episode borrows a powerful idea: relationships rarely end in explosive fights. They drift — slowly, silently, through a failure to connect in tiny everyday moments. Your relationship with your vegan intentions works exactly the same way. The gap between where you meant to be and where you are isn't failure. It's drift. In this episode:How the Gottman Institute's "drift" research applies to your plant-based practice (and your fitness, finances, and relationships too)The currents that move all of us: busy weeks, travel, family reunions, the path of least resistance with Parmesan on itWhy noticing you've drifted is good news — it means you're paying attentionLook where you want to go: what skiing, and driving  teach us about target fixation and steering toward your futureData, not drama: borrowing the scientist's lab coat so your meals become data points, not a moral report cardWhy every plant-based meal counts even if you're not fully vegan — three plant-based dinners a week is 150+ meals a year, and consistency compounds.If "vegan" feels overwhelming as an identity, make it an action instead: just vedge your bestI'd love to hear from you: Where did you notice yourself drifting this summer — and what's one turn you made back toward what you want?

This episode begins by noting the proximity of two of the most significant events of the twentieth century, one archaeological, the other political: the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in 1947 and the founding of the modern State of Israel in 1948. What do they have to do with each other? A lot, it turns out, at least when it comes to archaeology's role in Israeli nationalism, from justifying their claim to "Judea and Samaria" to using the legal and bureaucratic aspects of protecting "heritage sites" as a way to seize territory to the draw for Christian Zionists of Israel's supposed stewardship of "the Holy Land." Throughout the conversation, we draw on our guest Jasper Nathaniel's years of reporting on these matters, and especially his heroic work documenting the brutality of Israeli settlers — and their enablers— in the West Bank.

This week we'll be studying 2 Peter 3:10-18 under the theme “Don't Drift. Finish Strong.” This world won't last, and drifting is always a danger, but Jesus holds us securely and grows us in grace so we can finish strong.Series Summary: In a confusing and compromised world, you don't drift into faithfulness — you fight for it. The apostle Peter knew that believers are constantly tempted to forget what they know, become distracted by false ideas, and grow spiritually dull. Yet God has given us everything we need to stand firm in Christ. In this series, "Stay Sharp," we'll rediscover the truth that strengthens our faith, exposes deception, renews our hope, and keeps us watchful until the day Jesus returns.Fill out our online connection cardHow can we pray for you?

We had the privilege of learning from Pastor Austin from Beloved Church this Sunday! He led us through the book of Malachi, reminding us of God's faithful love and His invitation to return to Him with our whole hearts. We were challenged to consider what we're giving to God and whether we're offering Him our best or simply what's left over. Ultimately, Malachi points us to Jesus, who meets us in our unfaithfulness and brings restoration through His grace.-----------Join us for service online or in-person in Grand Rapids every Sunday at 9AM & 10:45AM.Decided to follow Jesus?

Onchain vaults now hold $67B. Veda's CEO maps out how they work, and why the SEC just hinted some could be securities. ======================================================== Thank you to our sponsor! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cape⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: Your biggest crypto vulnerability isn't your wallet, it's your phone number. Cape is America's privacy-first mobile carrier that rotates your SIM identity daily and blocks SIM swaps before they happen. Get 33% off your first six months at cape.co/unchained (use code: UNCHAINED). ======================================================== SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce warned recently that some crypto vaults could trigger federal securities law, invoking the same Howey Test language crypto has argued over for a decade, just as onchain vaults have quietly become a $67 billion vehicle for parking assets. Sun Raghupathi, cofounder and CEO of Veda, joins Laura Shin to untangle what a vault actually is, why splitting the infrastructure, curator, and distributor roles matters for the entrepreneurial-effort question Peirce raised, and why he reads her statement as bullish rather than a warning shot. Raghupathi maps the real risk stack behind vaults, smart contract flaws, the key-management failures behind incidents like KelpDAO and Drift, and the economic risk exposed when Stream Finance blew up and left $285 million in vault exposure.  He also details Veda's Kraken partnership, now scaled past $600 million across 80,000 users, and makes the case that the biggest constraint on vault growth isn't security anymore. It's clarity.
