It's Day 12 of our 21 Days of Prayer, and today we're looking at one of the hardest attacks Nehemiah faced: betrayal from within. Opposition hurts most when it comes from people we trust. But just like Nehemiah, and countless leaders through the years, we're reminded to stay focused on the work God's called us to do.When the noise grows loud and distractions pile up, it's easy to drift from what matters most. But rebuilding requires focus. Nehemiah refused to stop working, saying, “Why should the work stop while I leave it?” The same is true for us, good things can become the very things that pull us from God's best.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by Eastside's conviction that God's grace is for everyone, each episode invites you to discover God's presence and activity in your life.

As we rebuild what's broken, we've seen how distractions and slander can derail us. Another challenge we may face is the seduction of alarmists. When fear gets loud and panic spreads, discernment becomes essential.Nehemiah was told his enemies were coming to kill him and that he should run and hide in the temple. But he saw through the manipulation and refused to let fear dictate his faith. Instead, he stood firm and trusted God to protect him.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

Rebuilding what's broken isn't just hard, it's messy. It's not just distractions that can pull us off course. Today, we see another attack Nehemiah faced: the sabotage of slander. False rumors spread. His motives were questioned. But instead of fighting back or quitting, he prayed, “Nothing like what you're saying is happening… Now strengthen my hands.”We've all felt the sting of words that weren't true, and if we're honest, we've probably passed along a few ourselves. Today's prayer invites us to pause and ask God to help us respond with grace when we're hurt, and restraint when we're tempted to gossip. May we become people who build others up, not tear them down.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

Today, we're learning from Nehemiah why he was successful at rebuilding the wall and what it means for the rebuilding God is doing in our lives.Nehemiah faced subtle attacks meant to distract him from his purpose. When his rivals invited him to meet on the plain of Ono, he recognized the trap and replied, “I am carrying on a great project and cannot go down.” Sometimes the greatest threat to your calling isn't failure, it's distraction.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

This episode recorded live at Becker's 31st Annual The Business and Operations of ASCs features Helen M Lowenwirth, MBA, CASC, Administrator, East Side Endoscopy, LLC. She discusses the continued migration of procedures from hospitals to ASCs, the role of AI and technology in improving efficiency and documentation, and how collaboration among hospitals, vendors, and policymakers is driving greater access to patient care.

Being fully devoted to God sounds simple—but living it out isn't easy. In Nehemiah 6, the work gets hard, opposition grows, and Nehemiah prays one raw prayer: “Now strengthen my hands.”How is real faith forged when you feel like quitting? It starts with being honest about what's hard and choosing to keep showing up anyway. Whether you're rebuilding your life, your faith, or your focus, today's prayer is a reminder that God meets you right in the middle of the struggle and gives you the strength to keep going.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

East Side Gallery – Denkmal zwischen Bauprojekten – Nach der Wiedervereinigung wurden Teile der Berliner Mauer zu einem Kunstwerk. Einige Jahre lebten dort Künstlerinnen und Künstler in Wohnwagen. Heute ist die East Side Gallery von Büros und Luxuswohnungen umgeben.

Over the past six days, we've learned from Nehemiah's story about praying for impossible situations, trusting God's timing, and letting Him change hearts we can't. Today, Gene recaps four powerful principles that can reshape how you pray and how you live:1- Part of praying is waiting. Real prayer requires patience and trust that God is working behind the scenes.2 - Faith is no substitute for careful planning. Don't just pray, prepare for what God will do.3 - Changing hearts is God's specialty. You can't manipulate someone into change, but God can transform even the hardest heart.4 - God's will always has opposition. Criticism doesn't mean you're off track, in fact it may mean you're right where God wants you.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

So far, we've seen Nehemiah pray, wait, plan, and watch God open doors in miraculous ways. Today's reminder might surprise you - even when God answers prayer and moves mountains, you'll still face opposition.When Nehemiah set out to rebuild Jerusalem, everything seemed to be going his way… until critics appeared. Sanballat and Tobiah opposed him at every turn. The truth is, anytime you step out in faith, when you're right in the center of God's will, you can expect pushback. Opposition isn't a sign that you're failing; it's often confirmation that you're doing something that matters.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

Today, Gene shares a powerful prayer strategy inspired by Leslie Strobel—the prayer that helped change her atheist husband Lee's heart. It's based on God's promise in Ezekiel 36:26: “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.”Changing hearts isn't our job, but it is God's specialty. Whether it's a spouse, boss, friend, or family member, you can't manipulate, persuade, or preach someone into transformation. But you can pray for God to do what only He can do.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

Today, we see what happens when God finally answers and it's bigger than Nehemiah could have imagined. The king doesn't just say yes; he goes above and beyond, sending officers and cavalry for protection.That's what God does. He doesn't just answer prayers, He exceeds them! When we pray with expectation, God delights in doing immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

Even in life's messiest moments, God is still working. In this message from Philippians, we learn from Epaphroditus—a man who nearly died serving God but found healing and purpose. Paul reminds us to celebrate what God is doing in others and trust He can bring victory in our own story too. Real joy isn't about perfection; it's about seeing God's hand in every situation.

As Nehemiah identifies his burden, he waits patiently in prayer for God to move. Today, we see what happens when the waiting ends and God finally opens the door - just not in the way Nehemiah expected. After four months of prayer, the king suddenly asks him, “What is it you want?” and in that moment, Nehemiah prays again and steps forward with boldness and a plan.Faith is no substitute for careful planning. Nehemiah didn't just pray- he prepared. As you pray through your own impossible person or situation today, ask God: “What do I need to be ready for when You open the door? What steps do I need to take?”Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

Yesterday, we identified the burdens we're carrying—the people or situations we can't fix on our own. Today's focus is on what to do with that burden once you've named it. Nehemiah's story reminds us that real prayer often includes something we struggle with most: waiting. He prayed for four months before seeing any movement from God or a change in his circumstances, but he didn't stop trusting.If it feels like your prayers are going unanswered, remember that part of praying is letting go and letting God. Today's prayer prompt:  “God, I confess that I want things to change on my timeline, not Yours. But today I'm choosing to wait on You. Help me stay faithful in prayer even when I don't see results. Give me patience to trust that You're working behind the scenes.”Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

Plans by Vancouver Mayor Sim and his ABC majority to uplift the Downtown Eastside propose to increase the proportion of market rentals, water down the definition of social housing and dramatically increase allowable building heights. Critics say this amounts to a recipe for rapid gentrification and displacement of local residents. We talk with Ian Mass about this plan and much more.

Welcome to Day 1 of 21 Days of Prayer! Over the next three weeks, we'll walk through the book of Nehemiah together - learning how prayer, faith, and trust can move even the hardest hearts and change impossible situations. Today's focus is on what to do when someone in authority over you just won't budge. Maybe it's a boss, a parent, or someone close to you who doesn't seem open to spiritual things. Proverbs 21:1 reminds us, “The king's heart is in the hand of the Lord; he directs it like a watercourse wherever he pleases.”As you begin this prayer journey, take a few quiet moments to identify the burden you're carrying. Who is that person you've been trying to reach or change? Write their name down and pray:  “God, I'm carrying a burden for [name]. I can't change their heart, but You can. I'm giving this burden to You today.”Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

Ever feel like you're running on empty, like life keeps tripping you up and you're not sure if you've got another round in you? This is a reminder that winning isn't the point, finishing is. When Paul said, “We do not lose heart,” he was talking about the kind of strength that keeps you moving even when everything in you wants to give up. Maybe you're searching for faith, or maybe you've already found it, but you've stopped showing up in ways that matter. Either way, this is about getting back up, remembering what God has done for you, and not quitting on what really matters. Because resilience isn't about avoiding the fall, it's about standing up again when you do.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

“Council is empowered — they're not using their power.” Brenda Faye Butler from Birmingham to Detroit—walks us through a life that links the Civil Rights South to the Eastside today: a coal miner's daughter who landed here after the 1967 uprising, trained at 14 by Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth to knock doors and teach neighbors the civics needed to pass voter tests, and later inside the Wayne County's first executive administration of Bill Lucas “setting up how government would run.” Brenda unpacks why council-by-district matters, how ARPA and CDBG dollars should “follow the people,” and why CRIO must truly monitor deals “If a developer says they met with the community—who?”. Brenda Butler is a community voice that represents the Eastside residents where politics and business connect. She's real about development math, tax abatements, and the difference between promises and delivery: “Stop saying jobs; people want careers.” We trace her organizing arc—from Chandler Park meetings during the housing crisis to tracking Stellantis benefits and flood relief gaps—tying it all to Legacy Black Detroit's past (migration, unions, church-led civics) and future (youth seats on CACs, manufacturing training, climate resilience). And as a write-in for District 4's Community Advisory Council, she makes it plain: “Bring everyone to the table. That's equity.” By the time she spells the ballot line—“Write in B-R-E-N-D-A F-A-Y-E B-U-T-L-E-R—coal miner's daughter working for us”—you'll hear why her voice maps where Detroit has been and where we're going.

“You speak life—I try to speak life every time I open my mouth,” says One Single Love Rose, and from there this episode blooms into a living archive of Legacy Black Detroit: four generations from Black Bottom to the East Side, Creole kitchens to jazz guitars, a mother born a “call bearer” whose veil marked prophetic gifts, and a daughter who learned in second grade that “words have power—to hurt or heal.” Rose traces family roots from Shreveport red clay to McClellan Street porches, then walks us into Detroit's spoken-word renaissance, where she evolved from page to stage—touring Europe, mentoring “great-mentees,” and crafting sets that move “from the bedroom to the boardroom.” She breaks down playful, sensual erotics done “with love,” the discipline of listening for spirit at 3 a.m., and why young writers must “write for everybody so you can go everywhere.” It's an irresistible, funny, soulful ride that ties Black Bottom's vanished jazz bars to the future of Detroit's cultural power—proof that when Detroit women speak life, the city's ancestors answer back, and tomorrow's artists find their cue.
