SummaryIn this episode of Echoes Through Eternity, Dr. Jeffery D. Skinner explores the critical transition from an inward-focused church culture to a strategic, outward-reaching mission. Through contrasting stories of two churches, he emphasizes the importance of aligning church activities with the mission of outreach and discipleship. The conversation delves into practical strategies for engaging the community, setting measurable goals, and ensuring that church resources are directed towards fulfilling the Great Commission. Dr. Skinner encourages leaders to reflect on their priorities and to commit to a mission-driven approach that prioritizes reaching those far from God.TakeawaysChurches can drift inward, focusing on self-preservation.A mission-driven church prioritizes outreach over maintenance.Budgeting should reflect mission priorities.Setting measurable goals is essential for outreach.Community engagement is vital for church growth.Evaluate ministries for their effectiveness in reaching outsiders.Language used in church should be accessible to seekers.Leaders must reflect on their church's mission regularly.Traditions should not hinder the mission of the church.Prayer and commitment to outreach are crucial for renewal.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/echoes-through-eternity-with-dr-jeffery-skinner--5523198/support.Echoes Through Eternity Guiding church planters and pastors to plant seeds of prayer, holiness, and courage that outlast a lifetime. contact drjefferydskinner@protonmail.com

This week on Monday Mailtime, Producer Dom returns with another round of spine-tingling listener stories that prove some buildings never forget.First, Chloe recounts a harrowing evening in her university's Victorian-era library, specifically the top floor nicknamed The Crying Room.What starts as a quiet study session turns chilling when unseen weeping fills the air and books begin to slide from the shelves… on their own.The explanation she later receives only makes things worse.Then, Rachel shares a mysterious encounter in an old Liverpool community center that once served as a Victorian school.While helping her aunt clean up after an event, a dusty piano begins playing itself.Slow, deliberate notes echoing across the empty hall.Her aunt's cryptic response only deepens the mystery.Are these just echoes of the past?Or are some energies still very much present?Turn down the lights and listen close because tonight's stories are filled with sound, sorrow, and something that refuses to stay silent.A Create Podcast Hosted on Acast.

Have you ever wondered what kind of legacy your leadership leaves behind—especially when you're not in the room? I know that for so many leaders, we pour our energy into the relationships and results right in front of us, sometimes forgetting that the true impact of our advocacy, support, and connection echoes far beyond our immediate presence. We can get so caught up in the daily grind, the fires, the people who need us right now, that it's easy to miss the quiet ways we're making a difference in rooms and conversations we'll never even know about. If you've ever been unsure who's advocating for you or questioned if the impact you're making actually lasts, you're not alone. That's why I invited Amber Fields, a master connector and Chief Culture Officer at TrueU, to the podcast. Together, we dive into the how and why of building community and nurturing relationships in a way that creates a lasting ripple effect, well beyond your physical presence. This isn't an episode about collecting business cards or playing transactional networking games. This conversation is about cultivating authentic community, understanding how true advocacy works, and remembering that the influence you share today will echo into tomorrow's opportunities – even when you aren't in the room. Episode Takeaways: (00:00) How your impact continues when you leave the room—why this question matters now (03:15) Why community is a core value for Amber (07:25) Someone advocated for me in a room I wasn't in—here's what happened (11:05) Mentorship, advocacy, and how to inspire people to speak up for you (14:00) Doubt, worthiness, and the courage to ask for what you need (15:49) How to discern which relationships to nurture (and how to let others go) (18:21) Practical ways to nurture connections and create value in any relationship (20:14) What to do when the connection just isn't there (“clink vs. click”) (24:58) The power of working through conflict—leveraging differences for greater growth (28:27) Why Amber's work at True You matters now more than ever (29:59) Why community is more critical post-pandemic (32:34) How advocates and authentic relationships change your life, at work and at home   What you'll walk away with isn't just another leadership checklist—it's the reminder that you are never as alone as you think, and the smallest acts of service and connection you offer today have a way of multiplying, even without you knowing. So lean in, get inspired, and remember: your impact echoes.   Connect with Amber Fields https://www.linkedin.com/in/amberwestfields/ https://trueu.com/   About Andrea Butcher Andrea Butcher is a visionary business leader, executive coach, and keynote speaker—she empowers leaders to gain clarity through the chaos by being MORE of who they already are.

Investigative journalist Andrei Soldatov has tracked the rise of Putin's propaganda machine from the inside; and paid the price in exile. In this gripping conversation, he connects the dots between Russia's early media crackdowns and the chilling parallels unfolding in the United States today. From late-night comedy to Pentagon press restrictions, Soldatov explains how free speech erodes step by step; and what Americans must do to fight back. This episode is both a history lesson and a warning: freedom of expression isn't lost overnight; it's chipped away until silence becomes the norm.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week's guest on the Gramophone Podcast is trumpeter Tine Thing Helseth, who talks to Editor Martin Cullingford about her new recording on the Lawo label. Called 'Echoes', it features works by Arutiunian, Penderecki and Weinberg - she talks about the album, as well as her wider work championing her instrument and its repertoire.

In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Shirley Strum, professor of anthropology and director of the Uaso Ngiro Baboon Project in Kenya. For over five decades, Dr. Strum has observed wild baboons, uncovering surprising truths about their lives—and about our own. Her new book, Echoes of Our Origins: Baboons, Humans, and Nature, brings readers into the world of baboon society, revealing what these remarkable primates can teach us about cooperation, conflict, survival, and what it really means to be human. We discuss the joys and challenges of long-term fieldwork, the deep connections between humans and baboons, and how storytelling can inspire conservation and empathy across species.

Kristin Connor was living a typical life as a business litigation attorney, a job she held for about a decade and absolutely loved. Then, while she was pregnant with her second child, everything changed. Her unborn son was diagnosed with an unusual form of neuroblastoma, a cancer that's rare in children to begin with, and almost unheard of in unborn babies. After he was born, Kristin and her family spent two years going through test after test, tracking the tumor and evaluating options – all before any invasive surgery ever occurred. After trekking 3,000 miles, clear across the country, to meet with a doctor who seemed to offer the least worst alternative, the hand of god stepped in a performed what can only be described as an honest-to-goodness miracle. More on that in the interview. This experience led Kristin to leave her law career behind and dedicate her life to helping other families whose children are battling cancer. Today, Kristin is the CEO of CURE Childhood Cancer, a national nonprofit organization that raises millions of dollars each year to fund childhood cancer research and help families. September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and your donations are encouraged today and every day. You can donate directly at THIS LINK. In this inspiring episode, Kristin shares more about what she loved as an attorney; the way she got involved in childhood cancer research; how she became totally disillusioned with the other cancer nonprofit organizations out there; what Major League Baseball Hall of Fame pitcher Tom Glavine and then-Commissioner Bud Selig had to do with it; why she does what she does today; and of course, the miracle she experienced. Again, please donate to Kristin's organization, CURE Childhood Cancer, at THIS LINK.

Bonus Episode #54 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. The storm is far from over. Kaelen and Torren's desperate flight from the massive Cindercloak airship leads them deeper into the treacherous Stormweave Isles, where floating islands spin in perpetual tempest and the very air crackles with corrupted magic. As they seek refuge among storm-wracked ruins and forgotten shrines, uncomfortable questions begin to surface about allies, enemies, and the true cost of the choices that shattered the Starbinder Order generations ago. In this second installment of our four-part radio drama, the foundations of trust begin to crack under the weight of hidden histories and painful revelations. The past refuses to stay buried, and some secrets carry a price that echoes through the present. New allies emerge from unexpected places, while familiar bonds are tested by forces beyond anyone's control. As our heroes navigate both physical dangers and the treacherous landscape of shifting loyalties, they edge closer to truths that will reshape everything they thought they knew about their world.

I'm Claire Ridgway, historian and author. On 29 September, the Tudors celebrated Michaelmas, the feast of St Michael the Archangel, heaven's champion and defender of the Church. Beyond the bells and processions, Michaelmas was one of the four quarter days, the moment the Tudor year turned. In this video: What Michaelmas meant in scripture & worship (Michael vs. the dragon) Quarter day basics: new agricultural year, rents & accounts due, hiring/statute fairs The menu: why Tudors roasted “stubble-goose” (and the saying that it kept you in money) Folklore: don't pick blackberries after Michaelmas—the devil's said to spoil them! Echoes today: why Oxford, Cambridge and the law courts still call it Michaelmas term What would be on your table: goose, apples, or a blackberry tart (picked before today, of course)? Tell me in the comments! If you enjoyed this slice of seasonal Tudor life, please like, subscribe, and ring the bell for more daily “On This Day” history. #Michaelmas #OnThisDay #TudorFeastDays #TudorHistory #StMichael #EarlyModernLife #TudorFood #SeasonalHistory #HistoryYouTube #QuarterDays #BritishFolklore

Echoes of Grace1st Thessalonians 1:6-10The Thessalonians had RECEIVED the Word of God – not just listened to it, or heard it, but had actively accepted it into their hearts and lives, through the work of the Holy Spirit. The Greek word for ‘having received' is based on the root amen. They had heard the word, and in their hearts they had said AMEN. So be it Lord, and what a marvellous effect that great spiritual amen had in the lives of those Thssalonian believers.Read the NOTES HERE. Hosted on Acast.

.Echoes in the DarkA Bigfoot Encounter StoryThe Campfire's EmbraceThe fire crackled and popped. Logs shifted with hollow groans, collapsing inward as flames licked at their sides. The glow painted the trunks of nearby trees in hues of gold and crimson, while beyond that small circle of light stretched an ocean of darkness.The forest was alive. A rustle of leaves whispered overhead, carried by a cool breeze. Every so often, an owl hooted far off, its call bouncing from unseen perches. It was a place where mystery thrived, where imagination could run unchecked.Thomas sat on a folding chair by the fire, hands resting on his knees, watching the flames like a man hypnotized. His son, Luke, refused to sit still. At eight years old, the boy overflowed with boundless energy, a bundle of excitement, fear, and curiosity all tied up in one wiry frame.

A direct conversation on what happens after war ends and the mind keeps fighting. U.S. Army veteran Donald Dunn (68 months deployed across Bosnia, Iraq, Afghanistan) breaks down survivor's guilt, depression, isolation, and why documenting your story can be a turning point. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life with host Avik, we discuss his books Echoes of War and When Demons Followed Me Home, the mission behind Veteran Voice Radio and Spirits & Stories, and practical ways families can understand invisible wounds. Straight talk for veterans, families, therapists, and anyone navigating trauma.   About the Guest  : Donald Dunn is a decorated U.S. Army veteran, author of Echoes of War, creator behind Veteran Voice Radio and Spirits & Stories, and founder of Barracks Media. His upcoming book When Demons Followed Me Home uses metaphor to make hidden injuries visible.   Key Takeaways: Coming home was harder than combat; the “real war” began after the uniform. Survivor's guilt (loss of friends on June 28, 2005) shifted deployments from “job” to life-or-death reality. Unspoken trauma erodes family bonds; silence created distance with spouse and children. Isolation disguised as work (long-haul trucking) intensified depression. A breaking point at home signaled it was time to seek professional help. Writing first for family (not publication) enabled honesty without interruption or judgment. Putting feelings into words creates third-person perspective and emotional regulation. Repeatedly telling the story reduces reactivity; you still feel, but you gain control. Healing requires responsibility and amends for harm done during depressive or addictive periods. The “demons” in his new book are metaphors—making homelessness, addiction, and rage legible to non-traumatized readers. .

After seeing the parabolic moves in some A.I. stocks, Jeff Zananiri makes comparisons to what he saw during the dot com bubble of the 1990s. He warns of ballooning valuations but believes in chipmakers and infrastructure plays long-term. Jeff makes a bullish case for Nvidia (NVDA), AMD Inc. (AMD), and Intel (INTC). He also like crypto long-term but expects Bitcoin to see a continuing pullback toward $100,000.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Is AI a bubble? In this episode, I unpack a new five-gauge framework for understanding the biggest question in tech. Drawing on lessons from past manias – railways, telecoms, the dot-com boom – and grounding our analysis in fresh data, we examine economic strain, revenue growth, valuations, and the quality of capital fueling AI's ascent. This is our effort to cut through hype and fatalism to provide a clear dashboard: where today's AI build-out looks like a genuine boom, and where early warning signs of bubble dynamics may be emerging. Whether you're an investor, policymaker, or executive, this framework offers a disciplined way to navigate the noise.Jump to the best parts:(00:29) Echoes of the past (01:31) The 5 gauge framework (01:54) Gauge #1: Investment intensity(03:45) Gauge #2: Monetization level (04:48) Gauge #3: Revenue trajectory (06:23) Gauge #4: Valuation level(07:24) Gauge #5: Quality of capital (10:10) Overall assessmentProduced by EPIIPLUS1 and Supermix. Thanks to my team: Nathan Warren, Hannah Petrovic, Chantal Smith & Marija Gavrilov Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Ever wonder what humanity would look like if we'd never invented war? It's a huge 'what if.' In this episode, we're taking a speculative journey into an alternate reality—a world without war. We'll imagine how everything from our technology (would we have the internet?) to our art (what would our epics be about?) and our deepest sense of who we are would have changed. This isn't just about peace and quiet; it's about reimagining the very engine of human history. Let's get our imaginations firing and explore a past that never was, but maybe, could have been.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. This is a reverberating ethos through Palestinian director Annemarie Jacir's latest film, Palestine 36, which chronicles the last days of the British Mandate of Palestine and its lasting ramifications. Produced by Philistine Films, BBC Film, BFI, Doha Film Institute, Watermelon Pictures and more, and starring Hiam Abbass, Yasmine Al Massri, Saleh Bakri, Jeremy Irons, Robert Aramayo of The Rings of Power, Liam Cunningham of Game of Thrones, Karim Daoud Anaya, and others, the film details the violent colonization of Palestine that violently continues to today. Why does such colonization happen? What are the societal, capitalistic, and manipulative tactics employed? What does Palestine 36 have to teach us for today's many challenges?

SummaryIn this conversation, Dr. Jeffery D. Skinner discusses the essential elements of church planting, emphasizing the importance of gathering a core team and shaping a launch community. He dispels the myth that only extroverted personalities can successfully plant churches, highlighting that success is measured by faithfulness rather than numbers or personality.
