Strong Woman competitor Dani Myers Glynn reminds us in order to chase your dreams you must never allow yourself to quit
Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day. Don't forget today we drop a chapter review of Mark 2 on The Weekly Vince Miller Show; check that out. It will add some perspective on Jesus by looking at Chapter 2 from a slightly higher level. I would love to give a shout-out today to Joseph Myall from Klamath Falls, OR. Thanks for being a partner with the ministry. We cannot do what we do without the faithful support of families like yours. This is for you, Joseph! Today, we're looking at Mark 2:23-28: One Sabbath he was going through the grainfields, and as they made their way, his disciples began to pluck heads of grain. And the Pharisees were saying to him, “Look, why are they doing what is not lawful on the Sabbath?” And he said to them, “Have you never read what David did, when he was in need and was hungry, he and those who were with him: how he entered the house of God, in the time of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the bread of the Presence, which it is not lawful for any but the priests to eat, and also gave it to those who were with him?” And he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. So the Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.” — Mark 2:23-28 Jesus and his disciples were walking through a field on the Sabbath, and they casually picked grain to eat. It was a simple, innocent act. An everyday moment. However, the religious leaders turned it into a legal trap and dispute. To them, the issue was not their present physical hunger but religious rebellion. The religious leaders had built layers of tradition over centuries around God's commands—so many that they'd lost sight of the heart behind the law. Jesus answers with an account they'd all remember: David, while running for his life, was also hungry and desperate and ate not merely grain in a field but the sacred bread from within the Temple. It wasn't sanctioned, yet God didn't condemn him. Because sometimes, mercy takes precedence. Then Jesus offers a correction they didn't expect: “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.” In other words, the Sabbath isn't a burden—it's a blessing. A time for rest, renewal, and remembering who provides everything we need. Then, Jesus takes his point to a whole new level. He claims authority not just to interpret the Sabbath but to own it: “The Son of Man [Jesus] is Lord even of the Sabbath.” This wasn't about rules—it was about who rules. Jesus was declaring that true spiritual rest isn't found in rules. Rest is found in Him. and of course, they missed the point he was making. Just like they did, we miss the point: We still fall into the same trap. We turn faith into performance. We hustle for approval. We keep spiritual scorecards. But Jesus invites us to something entirely different—not a religion to prove, rules to follow, but a relationship to enjoy. Spiritual rest isn't earned. It's received. And real rest begins when we trust that his work—not ours—is what makes us right with God. #LordOfTheSabbath, #SabbathRest, #MercyNotRules ASK THIS: Why do you think the Pharisees had such a hard time letting go of their rules? In what ways do you find your worth in performance instead of God's presence? What would it look like for you to receive Sabbath as a gift, not a burden? Where is Jesus inviting you to stop striving and simply rest? DO THIS: Set aside 10 minutes today to stop and rest in God's presence. No agenda, no noise. Just be still and let Jesus remind you that you're not defined by what you do—but by who He is. PRAY THIS: Jesus, thank you for being my rest. Teach me to slow down, to trust your provision, and to find peace in your presence—not my performance. Amen. PLAY THIS: Run To The Father.

Do you find yourself apologizing for what you don't know rather than confidently showcasing what you do? Tracy sits down with Jodie Kelley, CEO of the Electronic Transactions Association, who brings over 25 years of experience navigating leadership roles in male-dominated industries. As women, we're often conditioned to focus on the boxes we don't tick instead of the ones we do. This unconscious pattern creates invisible barriers that hold us back more effectively than any glass ceiling. In this revealing conversation, Jodie shares how her non-linear career path led to unexpected success and the crucial mindset shifts that separate those who break through from those who stay stuck. Her story proves that following what brings you joy can lead to more fulfillment than following a prescribed path. In this episode, Tracy explores: Why women apologize when men would simply showcase confidence How following your passion creates more authentic career success The unconscious biases affecting how female leaders are perceived Why being "relentlessly confident" is essential for women leaders How internal self-belief trumps external reception "If you are doing your homework, really throwing yourself into your job in a positive way and delivering, that matters. And if you bring with it that confidence in yourself, there is definitely a path. It's not that there is no glass ceiling, but there is a way to get to where you want to be." ~ Jodie Kelley

Ilena and Meleana Levitt didn't just talk about school choice—they lived it. When their father became a fully disabled veteran and their family could no longer afford private school, these two Montana sisters made a bold and uncommon decision: they worked nearly full-time jobs as teenagers to pay for the education they believed in. It wasn't easy—but it was worth it. Now, as young adults, they're turning their personal story into public advocacy, fighting to expand school choice in Montana so that no student has to sacrifice like they did just to access the education that fits them best. In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Ilena and Meleana to discuss what classical education taught them, how their family rallied behind them, and why school choice policies—like education savings accounts—are a game-changer for families who just want the freedom to choose what's best for their kids. Their story is a testament to hard work, personal agency, and the power of policy to open doors for the next generation. School choice isn't a theory for these sisters—it's the reason they're thriving. This is the kind of potential that gets unlocked when families—not systems—are put first.

By know, most of us know about the Roth IRA, 401(k), 403(b), and 457(b)...but many of us (myself included) have been in the dark about a taxable brokerage account. Cody is here to talk about all the positives of having one of these amazing accounts. Remember, after you retire, you won't be able to contribute to your workplace 403(b), 457(b) etc. Also, you need EARNED income (pension doesn't count) to still invest into an IRA. Personally, I opened up a taxable brokerage account when the market dipped in COVID and I like to call it my "opportunity fund".

Earned media opportunities for SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and PR (Public Relations), specifically discussing how to create "power pages" on your website is in this episode.Focusing on the importance of having a strong online presence to leverage media features effectively, emphasizing that sending traffic to your own website first is crucial for building authority and gaining brand equity. We touched on using tools like Ahrefs to check domain authority, analyzing a platform's social media presence, and the strategic advantages of using platforms for Pinterest SEO for long-term visibility and traffic generation due to its unique features and user behavior. The discussion also explores the increasing role of AI tools in content creation and marketing strategies.FAQs on Earned Media Opportunities for SEO and PR1. What are earned media opportunities and why are they important for businesses?Earned media refers to publicity gained through promotional efforts other than paid advertising, essentially media exposure that is "earned" through relationships, content creation, and engagement. These opportunities are crucial for businesses because they can significantly boost your search engine optimization (SEO) and public relations (PR) efforts. By being featured on external platforms like radio, TV, podcasts, magazines, or websites, you gain exposure to new audiences and build brand authority. This exposure, especially when linked back to your website, creates "power pages" – pages on your site that receive significant traffic and engagement. This organic traffic and external validation contribute to stronger online presence and brand equity, which are vital for long-term business growth.2. How can I leverage earned media opportunities to benefit my website's SEO?To effectively leverage earned media for SEO, it's essential to ensure that any features or mentions on external platforms directly link back to your website. Instead of directing people straight to the platform where you were featured, guide them to your website first. On your website, you can have a dedicated page (a "power page") that highlights your earned media appearances. This serves as the "first landing" for visitors, establishing your authority and allowing them to explore your content and offerings before clicking through to the external source for more context. This strategy drives valuable organic traffic to your site and builds essential backlinks, which are votes of confidence from other websites that improve your search ranking.3. What is domain authority and why is it important when considering earned media opportunities?Domain authority is a search engine ranking score that predicts how likely a website is to rank in search engine results pages (SERPs). When considering earned media opportunities, it is crucial to check the domain authority of the platform offering the feature. A high domain authority indicates that the platform is credible and trusted by search engines. Getting featured on a website with a high domain authority means that the backlink you receive carries significant weight, positively impacting your own website's domain authority and overall SEO performance. You can use tools like Ahrefs to check the domain authority of both potential media partners and your own website.P.S. We are one episode away from 500 episodes!

"Well, what an exciting day this was. I know mother and father protested but, frankly, that only made this sweeter. Assistant Operations Manager of Synthetic Animal Goods Production. Bit of a mouthful, but we can work on that. My first day at Eidolon is hardly the time to raise a fuss. Horace Babylon was certainly...a presence. The HR narrative that he likes to personally greet all new hires rang less true than him simply wishing to scare the hell out of anyone who won't make it within the company first thing. Well, Gennie St. Cloud is made of sterner stuff than that, Mr. Babylon, I assure you. I think I can make a real go of it here. Build something on my own terms, with my own hands, not simply handed to me because of my surname. Something I've EARNED. Well, should call it a night soon. Meeting with the head of the SynthLeather department tomorrow about the latest product range. Suppose it may prove interesting, if nothing else." -An entry in Genevieve St. Cloud's personal log, dated 23 years prior.
