I'm so excited for today's conversation with Sophia Ruffin-Wilson! Her brand-new book, It Will Be God: Live in the Jaw-Dropping Realities of God's Goodness, just released today, and she came by the podcast to share her powerful story and the heart behind this message.Sophia knows what it means to be radically transformed by Jesus. From a past marked by brokenness to a life filled with purpose and freedom, she has experienced God's deliverance and goodness firsthand. In this episode, we talk about:How God brought her out of darkness into freedom back in 2003Her journey of identity restoration and deliveranceThe “Comeback Kid” seasons of her life and what they taught her about resilienceThe deep faith that carried her through family loss and hard decisionsWhy she wrote It Will Be God and what she hopes readers take awayBreaking generational patterns and living anchored in God's promisesHow to walk confidently in your calling with authenticitySophia reminds us that even in the hardest valleys, God is faithful — and His goodness will always have the final say.

Buying a commercial property is exciting — but it's also scary. What if you overpay? What if there are hidden costs waiting to bite you later?In this episode, I share the two essential steps you must take before you commit to buying, so you can protect yourself from nasty surprises:✅ Why you should always commission two valuations — one at market value and one at vacant possession.✅ What a building survey really tells you (it's not just about defects — it's about who pays for them under the lease).✅ Why spending up to £5,000 on due diligence can save you tens of thousands in the long run.By the end, you'll know exactly how to avoid overpaying and how to make sure you don't get caught with unexpected bills.We're going Back to School at NC Real Estate with a brand-new 3-part live training series for commercial property investors:Back to School: Finance, Tenant Demand & Systems for Commercial Property Investors

Send Us a Message!Psychedelics and plant medicine have become increasingly intertwined with modern spiritual practices, but are these substances truly necessary for profound spiritual experiences? This question sits at the heart of our candid conversation about the relationship between Shamanism, plant medicine, and psychedelics.The conversation delves into the long-term integration process of psychedelic experiences, contrasting it with conscious shamanic methods that engage both mind and spirit in real time. Using the metaphor of an escalator versus stairs, we emphasize that while both paths can lead to transformation, shamanic techniques—like breathwork and meditation—build inner strength without giving power away to external tools.Along the way, we discuss:The relationship between psychedelics, plant medicine, and spiritualityQuestioning the necessity of substances for spiritual experiencesOur unique perspectives and experiences with psychedelicsthe difference between plant medicine and psychedelicsRisks of giving spiritual power away to substancesThe importance of integration after psychedelic experiencesThe stairs vs. escalator metaphor for spiritual growthThe role of your subconscious mind in the use of psychedelicsEmpowerment through conscious Shamanic techniquesAnd so much more!The Moon Rising team brings diverse perspectives to this nuanced topic, challenging the assumption that psychedelics are necessary for spiritual growth.Ready to expand and heal without the use of psychedelics?

This week on Anchored by the Sword, I'm joined by Jody Allen, author of the  book, Hidden Heartache. Jody bravely shares her story of walking through her husband's pornography addiction, a painful separation, and ultimately divorce — and how God met her in the middle of her deepest heartbreak.We talk about:Growing up in the church but having to discover real freedom for herselfHow she faced the devastating reality of pornography in her marriageThe long, painful road of counseling, treatment, separation, and divorceWhere she saw God's presence in the middle of her darkest daysWhy she wrote Hidden Heartache to help women find freedom from shame and silenceEncouragement for women who feel stuck, isolated, or afraid to share their storyJody reminds us that God can redeem even the stories we never wanted to live, and that wholeness is possible no matter how broken your heart has been.Bio:Jody is a North Carolina girl who enjoys board games, peanut butter, Sunday naps, and a good mystery. She's the mom of young adult twins and a geriatric black lab named Lucy. Whether writing or speaking, Jody considers it a privilege to use her words to speak into the lives of others. She serves as the Director of Women's Ministry at her church, where she offers hope and a little dose of humor to women in her church and community. Jody released her first book, Hidden Heartache: Finding Courage When Your Husband Struggles with Pornography, in 2024. In her decade of ministry, she has taught workshops, led small groups, spoken at women's events, and walked alongside women in crisis. Jody's goal is to point people to Jesus in a relatable and authentic way. Jody enjoys Sunday afternoon naps, a good laugh, mint chocolate chip ice cream and home cooked meals that someone else cooks. Most days you can find her procrastinating or still trying to master the skill of parking her car straight.Anchor Verses:Jeremiah 29:11Proverbs 3:5Romans 8:1Connect with Jody:Website: jodyallenwrites.comOrder Hidden Heartache on Amazon here.First four chapters of Hidden Heartache.Facebook: Jody Allen WritesInstagram: Jody Allen Writes

The Cliffords ruled northern England for 500 years through loyalty, lawsuits, and superior castle-building skills. From the legendary "Shepherd Lord" who hid in the Lake District for 24 years to Lady Anne Clifford, who fought a 40-year legal battle to inherit four castles and rebuilt them all to prove her point. When neighbors joined rebellions, the Cliffords chose the crown, and it paid off spectacularly.Tudorcon from Home reservations: https://www.englandcast.com/TudorconFromHomeUse code EARLYBIRD to join the Privy Council Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of Anchored by the Sword, I'm joined by the ever-delightful and deeply insightful Margaret Feinberg— author of the new book The God You Need to Know (with a companion study guide coming soon).Margaret shares her lifelong passion for Scripture and how she approaches it with both a scholar's curiosity and a heart for real-life application. We talk about:Her journey of discovering personal freedom in Christ — not in one dramatic moment, but through ongoing healing year after year.The life-changing reality of Holy Spirit — not as a distant idea, but as a living presence who hovers over our chaos, leads us into love, and transforms us from the inside out.How to discern the Holy Spirit's voice in a world full of noise, and practical ways to anchor yourself in truth when uncertainty hits.Why encountering God should be both deeply transformative and joy-filled — so that at the end of our days we can say, “Because of Him, we had the time of our lives.”Margaret brings humor, honesty, and powerful biblical insights to help you grow in your relationship with Holy Spirit. Whether you've known Him for years or you're just beginning to explore who He is, this conversation will inspire you to walk with God in fresh, life-giving ways.Bio:Margaret Feinberg, one of America's most beloved Bible teachers, speaks at churches and conferences and hosts the popular podcast The Joycast. Her books and Bible studies, including Taste and See and More Power to You, have sold more than one million copies and received critical acclaim and national media coverage from the Associated Press, USA Today, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, and more. She was named by Christianity Today as one of fifty women most shaping culture and the church today. Margaret savors life with her husband, Leif, and their superpup, Zoom.Anchor Verses:Genesis 1:1-2So many examples of Holy Spirit's presence before Acts!Connect with Margaret:Website: https://margaretfeinberg.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mafeinberg/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/margaretfeinberg/X: https://x.com/mafeinbergNew Book, The God You Need to Know: The God You Need to Know

Send Us a Message!Feeling disconnected from your spiritual path, or wondering if there's a right way to be spiritual—or if you're doing it “wrong”? You're not alone.In this soul-stirring episode, Christine and Shantel dive into what it really means to walk an authentic spiritual path—one that honors you as a whole person, not a fragmented version trying to fit into someone else's mold.We'll talk about how to stop outsourcing your spiritual power, start embracing your unique gifts, and create a practice rooted in truth, not trends.

In this episode, I share why so many Lightworkers are being called to Animal Reiki right now. I discuss the reasons behind the pull, how Animal Reiki connects to New Earth frequencies, and why this training can shift your relationship with nature, animals, and yourself. In this episode: A message from your galactic family What it really means to answer the call of service as a Lightworker Why so many empaths and healers are being pulled to this energy now How Animal Reiki supports unity consciousness and the shift to New Earth The deep healing of releasing the “dominion over” belief Why your animal might actually be leading you to this work "Reiki Animals" The rise of telepathic communication and intuitive animal-human partnerships  

If the waiting feels heavy right now, you're not the only one. I know what it's like to carry a longing that hasn't been met yet — to wonder how to keep living fully when the ache is still here.In this mini episode, I'm sharing a practice that's helped me again and again: making room for beauty in the waiting. Because beauty has a way of reviving our hearts when we least expect it. Not as a way to distract yourself, but as a way to breathe, open your heart, and let God meet you here.I'll talk about why beauty can draw you outside of yourself, soften the ache, and even make you more receptive to the gifts He's giving right now. My hope is that you'll leave with encouragement, fresh perspective, and a renewed permission to move slower, look up, and allow beauty to revive you in your waiting.P.S.

Some things don't want to be seen… but they still show up. In a flicker of motion at the edge of a stairwell. In the sound of knuckles tapping from inside the walls. In a face that looks familiar—until it doesn't. You tell yourself it's nothing. A draft. A dream. Old wiring. But what if it isn't?  What if that shadow you all saw wasn't a trick of the light? What if the alarm that won't stop isn't broken—but trying to warn you? Tonight, the stories are quiet, but they don't stay that way. They reach. They follow. They watch. And after the intro… we listen.  We're getting back to our roots with todays episode as we dive into some spooky first hand paranormal horror stories!

Hey friends! Today's episode is a timely one — because if you're anything like me, you've probably felt overwhelmed or anxious at some point lately. I'm joined by Dr. Charles Stone, pastor, author, and brain science nerd (in the best way possible) to talk about how we can actually reduce anxiety and stress using a powerful combo of Scripture and neuroscience.Dr. Charles shares from his new book, Stress Less: 9 Habits from the Bible and Brain Science to Build Resilience and Reduce Anxiety, and gets real about his own freedom story. We talk about pastoring through the chaos of COVID, personal health scares, family trials, and how God has shown up through every moment.He also shares practical tools—like a powerful breathing exercise and the STOPP method—that help us stay grounded and anchored in truth when life gets chaotic. This episode is packed with wisdom, hope, and some “why didn't I learn this sooner?” kind of tips.We chat about: • Leading a church through lockdown and health crises • God's role in our stress response • Bible characters who dealt with extreme stress (hello, Paul and Job!) • Breathing techniques that actually rewire your nervous system • How to spot emotionally safe people in your life • The HEART acronym and why your circle matters • Why theology and brain science go hand in handYou'll walk away feeling encouraged, equipped, and a little nerdy in the best way.Bio: Dr. Charles Stone (MDiv, D Min, PhD) has served in vocational ministry for forty-three years, thirty of which as a senior pastor. He recently completed a nine-year role as lead pastor of West Park Church in London, Ontario, Canada, a multicultural congregation with over a thousand attendees. He has authored eight books and now serves as a coach-consultant to pastors and leaders. Over three hundred of his articles have appeared in magazines and in online publications, such as Outreach Magazine, Leadership Journal, Pastors.com, SermonCentral.com, and Churchleaders.com.His doctorate research for Stress Less involved consulting more than five hundred research studies, articles, and books on stress resilience. He also studied more than four hundred ministry leaders by using surveys, interviews, and data analysis software.Anchor Verses: Luke 2: 52Isaiah 32: 8Connect with Charles Stone: Website: https://charlesstone.comIG: https://www.instagram.com/chucks9886FB: https://www.facebook.com/charles.stone1/

We know sleep and physical activity are crucial for overall health, but how do they affect one another? On today's episode of the WHOOP Podcast, WHOOP SVP of Research Algorithms and Data, Emily Capodilupo sits down with Sleep and Circadian Scientist Josh Leota to break down the latest WHOOP study on how intense exercise and timing affect sleep—and how sleep, in turn, influences your ability to train.
