Most people don't destroy their lives in one moment… they drift there.In this episode of Truth Behind the Mike, we explore the powerful “2-degree drift” analogy — and how small compromises slowly pull us away from God, truth, and the life we were created to live.The truth is:✔ Marriages rarely collapse overnight✔ Faith rarely disappears suddenly✔ Integrity rarely breaks in one decisionIt usually begins with small compromises that quietly compound over time.But there is hope.Just as small compromises lead us away from truth, small corrections can realign our lives with God's purpose.If you feel spiritually distracted, drifting, or distant from God — this message is for you.

Episode #1092  If you're feeling stuck, drifting, or like you've lost your drive, this episode is a reminder that the way out isn't about grinding harder. It's about learning to catch the wins you're already creating and most men miss them completely. Doug and Tim get real about why high-achieving men tend to ignore or downplay their progress, and how that habit keeps them trapped in the drift. They explain why celebrating wins isn't just fluff, it's a muscle. And if you're not training it, you're probably stuck living in the gap between where you are and where you think you should be. You'll hear how ignoring the "small stuff" is wrecking momentum, how to shift from pain-driven success to purpose-driven progress, and what actually changes when you stop dimming your light. This isn't about pretending things are perfect, it's about learning how to notice what's actually working so you can build on it. If you've been in survival mode for a while or stuck in the pattern of always pushing for "what's next," this is the one to tune into. Want to get clear on how you got stuck and how to get out of it? Grab the free training at fixmarriage.thepowerfulman.com/scales. It'll walk you through exactly what's broken and show you the steps to start turning things around.  

In this reposted episode, host Zach Urness talks with Randy Dersham, director of the documentary film "Oregon's Boat." The film, which won the award for Best Feature at the Oregon Documentary Film Festival, is now available to watch for free on YouTube or at the film's website. Dersham describes the evolution of one of the world's most famous boats — the McKenzie River Drift Boat — that took place in Eugene and on the McKenzie River. The boat evolved under a series of colorful fishing guides, woodworkers and adventurers to become the ideal boat for navigating whitewater rivers across the West.

What happens when the world keeps drifting… and someone refuses to move? On this intense and timely episode of Like It Matters Radio, Mr. Black confronts the growing decay and confusion we see in our cities, our homes, and especially in our men. This episode makes one thing clear: the breakdown in leadership didn’t happen all at once—it happened inch by inch. Through powerful metaphors like the Camel’s Nose in the Tent, the Boiling Frog, and the slow pull of cultural drift, Mr. Black exposes how small compromises quietly erode identity, conviction, and courage over time. What begins as “just a little change” becomes a complete loss of direction. At the heart of the episode is a gripping spoken-word message, “The One Who Would Not Be Moved,” built around a defining leadership truth: when you know who you are, why you are here, and WHOSE you are, you become unmovable—even when everything around you is shifting. This episode weaves together leadership principles, social learning theory, neuroscience, and biblical truth to explain not only how things have gone wrong—but how they can be made right. Mr. Black challenges listeners to see themselves honestly: we are both part of the problem and part of the solution. The choice is unavoidable:Drift or anchor.Run or fight.Disappear—or stand. A warrior in a wheelchair isn’t defined by strength, speed, or position, but by conviction. In a culture sliding toward chaos, the leaders who refuse to move are the ones who help others stand. This is an Hour of Power for those who feel the pressure, recognize the drift, and know it’s time to reclaim identity, draw a line, and lead with purpose. Because if not you—then who?If not now—then when? Inspiration. Education. Application.When you live your life like it matters… it does.

Episode #1090  Most men don't realize they're drifting until it's already been years. Life feels "fine" on the surface, business is steady, the marriage isn't falling apart, the kids are growing up, but deep down, you know something's off. That fire, that drive you once had? It's gone. In this episode, Doug and Tim break down what "the drift" actually is, how it silently pulls high-performing men into a rut, and why so many stay stuck for years. They unpack how good habits and strong traits can eventually trap you, why predictability is a relationship killer, and what it takes to reset your life without blowing everything up. You'll hear real stories of men who looked successful from the outside but were checked out on the inside. We cover how guilt, routine, and the "nice guy" trap keep men playing small. There's also a clear reason why going it alone rarely works. You need challenge, you need truth, and you need it from other men who've already done the work. This isn't about hype or hacks, it's about getting honest with where you are and what you're actually here for. If you're ready to break out of the drift and want a clear plan to get your passion, power, and connection back, check out the free training at fixmarriage.thepowerfulman.com/scales. It's a simple first step, but it'll show you exactly what's broken and how to start fixing it.

Silence in leadership is rarely intentional — but it's never neutral.In this short R@W Note episode of Relationships at Work, Russel Lolacher explores how delayed communication, hesitation, and “waiting until we know more” can unintentionally create confusion, anxiety, and cultural drift on teams.Leaders often hold back for good reasons: they want clarity, the right answer, or more information. But while leaders are thinking, teams are interpreting — filling gaps with assumptions, stories, and uncertainty.This episode reframes leadership presence as communication in progress — not perfection — and offers practical ways to lead with clarity even when decisions aren't final.Because leadership isn't about speaking last. It's about speaking when it matters most.And connect with me for more great content!

If you're in your 30s+ and your friend group has gotten smaller, quieter, and harder to maintain—this episode explains why it happens and how to rebuild real adult friendships without forcing awkward “we should catch up” conversations. A lot of friendship loss after 30 isn't a blow-up. It's the slow stuff: delayed replies, plans that keep getting pushed, long gaps that start to feel normal. And it's not just you—adult loneliness is widespread, and research shows close friendships often decline after the late 20s. In this podcast, we break down the psychology of adult friendship, what shifts in your mind as responsibilities stack up, and the 5 practical changes that help you rebuild a steady inner circle: how to do a social energy audit (so you stop guessing who drains you vs supports you) how to use emotional transparency without oversharing how to build friendship rhythms that survive busy schedules how to stop performing and start connecting with purpose how to do mutual repair when distance shows up If you've been searching for: “friendships fade after 30,” “losing friends in your 30s,” “adult loneliness,” “how to make friends after 30,” “how to reconnect with old friends,” “how to maintain friendships as an adult,” or “how to rebuild your inner circle,” this is for you.

Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me.

Nathan Harrison teaches on January 25, 2026.

Drift rarely happens all at once—it happens slowly, almost unnoticed. In this message from Hebrews 2, Rodney issues a clear warning and a hopeful invitation: don't drift away from Jesus. When life pulls our attention elsewhere, the answer isn't trying harder—it's fixing our eyes on Jesus, the only anchor strong enough to hold us.

Thank you for joining us as we continue our series called, "Kingdom Priorities." This week our Adult Discipleship Pastor, Danny Martin, takes us through a sermon titled, "How Not to Drift in a Drifting World” teaching from Matthew 23:13-15. If you haven't already, click ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to download the Sermon Application Guide to follow along.For more information on how to get connected with Five Oaks Church, visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.fiveoaks.church/connect-me⁠

It's the 23rd January 1879, one of the most momentous days in South African history has passed, and the ripple effect will be felt across the world. For missionary Otto Witt it was a time of particular terror. He had fled his mission station, Rorke's Drift, and now it was smashed to bits, the house which had doubled up as a hospital burned to the ground, the main warehouse which had been his church, broken, bloody. Witt had fled the day before and sought out his wife and children who he'd sent on to Msinga once it became apparent the British were going to invade Zululand. Witt had lost his way up the Biggarsberg escarpment on the terrifying night of the 22nd January, and staggered into the Gordon Memorial Mission at Msinga the next morning - but his wife Elin and their 3 young children had already left. He didn't know this — merely that she wasn't there. Elin had been told by refugees streaming away from Isandlwana that Otto had been killed at Rorke's Drift. So both believed the other dead. The family spent five days believing they were widows and orphans. The confusion was only cleared up when Witt finally tracked Erin's wagon trail to Pietermaritzburg where the family was reunited, exhausted and traumatized, but physically unharmed. In Newcastle, Maud Bradstreet had just assisted her friend, Mrs. Hitchcock, in delivering a baby girl named Georgina. Their joy was short-lived, however, as news arrived that the Newcastle Mounted Rifles had been decimated at Isandlwana—both of their husbands were among the dead. The two women set out for the Orange Free State, a grueling week-long journey by horse and cart, surviving on very little including water strained through a mealie bag. This was the raw reality for the survivors - later in the episode we'll hear from the Zulu. On the morning of January 23rd, a messenger reached Helpmekaar with a brief note from Lieutenant Chard Rorke's Drift commander Defying the grim expectations of the men at the camp, they had miraculously held their ground through the night. Back at Isandlwana, Chelmsford had awoken his men and rode away from the scene of carnage before dawn, one of the men had found the mangled body of Lieutenant Colonel Pulleine, Isandlwana's commanding officer, then the column passed down Manzimyama Valley. They moved past homesteads that had been abandoned only a day prior, but now the inhabitants were creeping back. Through the doorway of a single hut, they saw an Inyanga tending to amaQungebeni warriors who had likely fought at Isandlwana. The tension snapped; soldiers of the Natal Native Contingent opened fire and killed a man before order could be restored. A seething anger swirled through the British column, Trooper Fred Jones, one of the survivors of the Newcastle Mounted Rifles was not in a forgiving mood. “We saw red…” he admitted “ Exhausted and broken, the warriors shuffled forward, dragging their shields in the dust. The uThulwana were stunned—they thought no British soldiers were left alive after Isandlwana. For a long, tense moment, the two forces stared at one another across a distance easily covered by a bullet. Yet, neither side pulled a trigger. It was, as historian Ian Knight notes, a surreal conclusion to an extraordinary 48 hours: two armies, both feeling the weight of defeat, watching each other move silently into the distance. King Cetshwayo kaMpande did not get an accurate version of events at Rorke's Drift at first. Back at oNdini, Dabulamanzi reported that he had stormed and successfully taken the house… attacked again then retired…but admitted that he had suffered heavily …” It was to take another ten days before the warriors returned to oNdini and had been ritually cleansed .. only then did Cetshwayo address them in his huge cattle kraal. “If you think you have finished with all the white men you are wrong, because they are still coming…” he warned.

Anthropic's disclosure of model drift within its Claude AI system highlights growing risks surrounding governance and ongoing alignment of artificial intelligence. The company has revised its guidelines using a “Constitutional AI” approach, aiming to instill reason-based behavior and ethical boundaries, and has openly acknowledged that an AI's internal controls may shift unpredictably over time—a concern when models are deeply embedded in business workflows. This admission places attention on governance and accountability rather than just model safety, making clear that the AI a company tests may become materially different after extended deployment, especially as personalization increases.Supporting these concerns, Anthropic's research demonstrated that large language models—including those from Google and Meta—can experience personality drift, with unintended shifts in behavior due to instability of internal control mechanisms. Google's updated AI offerings, tying personal data from Gmail and Photos to generative model responses, intensify challenges around data governance and organizational control. As vendors expand AI personalization and memory features, oversight gaps can emerge, raising questions about who retains authority over information, inference, and decision-making within automated systems.Adjacent findings indicate that the anticipated productivity gains from AI have yet to reach most enterprises. According to surveys cited by Dave Sobel, over half of CEOs report failing to realize ROI from AI investments, while frontline employees describe AI integrations as sources of friction and additional workload rather than relief. In the MSP sector, widespread adoption of “agentic” AI and digital labor is delivering financial upside for some providers, but it is also shifting operational liabilities—especially as contracts and security architectures lag behind new workflow realities.The core takeaway for MSPs and IT service providers is the necessity of reexamining control, authority, and contractual obligations in AI-enabled environments. Delegating tasks to automated agents increases exposure to unpriced and unmitigated risks if governance, liability, and monitoring mechanisms do not adapt accordingly. Effective harm reduction in this landscape requires treating workflows—not just models—as security perimeters, clarifying accountability for AI-driven actions, and ensuring that contractual and operational frameworks reflect these new sources of risk.00:00 AI Governance Moves Center Stage as Models Drift and Personalization Deepen05:08 AI Boosts Executive Productivity While Frontline ROI and Employee Experience Lag07:51 AI Exposes the Real Divide: Governance Failures vs. Effective Oversight in Government Systems10:39 MSPs Chase AI-Driven Margins, but Workflow Security and Liability Define the Real Risk This is the Business of Tech.

In this episode of Redeemed Through His Blood, Scott and Deb talk honestly about seasons when life doesn't feel wrong—it just feels unorganized. Moving beyond last week's conversation about spiritual drift, they explore what happens when change is sudden, clarity is absent, and control slips away. Drawing on the Creation story, lived experience, and the Savior's invitation to “look unto me in every thought,” they reflect on how God works with chaos rather than discarding it—and how Jesus doesn't wait for things to make sense before He comes close. This is a conversation for anyone sitting in uncertainty, learning to trust that disorder is not disqualification, and discovering that peace can exist even before resolution does.
