What if the biggest predictor of your child becoming a lifelong reader has nothing to do with phonics programs, library incentives, or natural talent and everything to do with protecting space in their day? Cognitive psychologist Dr. Daniel Willingham joins Ginny to reveal the surprising truth about how kids learn, why background knowledge matters more than ever, and why reading aloud long past early childhood gives kids an academic and emotional advantage. With warmth and clarity, Dr. Willingham explains the “fourth grade slump,” the power of expertise, and how AI is reshaping the skills our kids will need most in the future. This episode offers a hopeful and doable path for families who want to reclaim reading in a screen-saturated world. You'll learn why limiting screens is the single most effective way to help kids choose reading for pleasure. Dr. Willingham shares why children don't need perfection, programs, or pressure; they need a home where learning is valued, distractions are dialed down, and reading is woven into the family rhythm. Encouraging, practical, and deeply grounding, this conversation shows that every parent can raise a reader starting today. Have fun. Start now.

Six Democrat lawmakers urged members of the military to openly defy their commands from President Donald Trump and War Secretary Pete Hegseth last week.   Their video sent shock waves through the political narrative as Trump called their actions “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH” on Truth Social. But this Democrat insurrection is not new, as they've spent the past year openly encouraging defiance of federal law, from sanctuary cities to calls for soldiers to ignore orders. Victor Davis Hanson breaks down this disturbing trend on the left on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”   “ We have 600 jurisdictions in which blue cities and states say that the federal law no longer applies in their jurisdiction. That's sort of neo-Confederate nullification that's prompted the Civil War. And you know, when Jefferson Davis, when he ordered South Carolina troops to fire on Fort Sumter, all he was doing was saying that the federal government is at war with the state. That's what our mayors are doing in these blue jurisdictions.”   (0:00) Introduction(0:11) Historical Context (3:10) Nullification by Local Authorities(7:40) The Left's Broader Agenda   Daily Signal today.

What happens when a dream is so big, so audacious, that you commit to it long before you have the skills, money, or confidence to make it happen? For Paula Ralph, that dream was to cycle from Cape Town, South Africa to Nordkapp, Norway— a 12,290 km journey across 17 countries. What began as a Guinness World Record attempt soon transformed into something far more powerful: a test of courage, resilience, and self-belief. Paula set off with one goal — to become the fastest woman to complete the route. But along the way, reality hit hard. Injuries, financial setbacks, fear, loneliness, and a traumatic collision with a truck in Zambia forced her to confront a heartbreaking truth: the record might no longer be possible. At this crossroads, Paula had a choice — stop, or redefine what success looked like. She chose to keep going. In this episode, Paula shares the raw truth behind the miles: the moments of doubt, the joy of human connection, the quiet sunrises that kept her pedalling, and the inner strength she discovered when everything else was stripped away. Her story is not just about endurance on a bike — it's about holding on to your "why" when the original plan falls apart. If you've ever had a dream that felt too big, or found yourself at the edge of giving up, Paula's journey will remind you that progress isn't always measured in records — sometimes it's measured in courage, growth, and the refusal to quit.  This episode is for you if: You're chasing a big goal or adventure You've experienced setbacks or self-doubt You want inspiration to keep going when life gets tough You love stories of resilience, solo travel, and human grit Ready to be inspired by what's possible when you simply refuse to stop? Hit play and let Paula take you on the road with her.  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

Real men read books. For Dr. Shilo Brooks books, not barbells at the gym or bros on social media, shaped the kind of man he wanted to be. After a rough childhood, his second stepfather showed him that great literature can build strength, depth, and character. Now a former Princeton professor and the President and CEO of the George W. Bush Presidential Center, he argues that the drop in boys' mental health mirrors the drop in boys reading. His new podcast, Old School, invites well-known men to share the books that shaped them, and encourages everyone to read.

In this message, Pastor Jasmine brings a powerful teaching on the posture of gratitude, drawing insight from Luke 17:1-19. She unpacks what true biblical gratitude looks like, how it not only delights the Lord but also creates divine precedence for Him to move in our lives. Gratitude isn't just a feeling; it's a spiritual posture that positions us in God's presence. Pastor Jasmine also exposes three major thieves of gratitude; entitlement, fear, and bitterness. Revealing how each one subtly pulls believers away from a thankful heart. She teaches that Satan despises your gratitude because gratitude anchors you in God's presence; if the enemy can steal your gratitude, he can separate you from the nearness of God. This message challenges listeners to begin each day with thanksgiving, recognizing that thanksgiving is the gateway into the Lord's courts. Pastor Jasmine warns that a lack of gratitude can lead to a hardened or debased mind, and that failing to thank God for what He is doing communicates a deeper ingratitude for what He has already done. Encouraging, convicting, and deeply practical, this teaching calls every believer to cultivate a lifestyle of gratitude—a posture that honors the Lord and shapes the way we walk with Him daily. The vision of Mercy Culture is to take people from corporate encounters with God to daily personal encounters with God.

The old country song closes with the words, “Where seldom is heard,  a discouraging word, and the skies are not cloudy all day.”  Many of you will remember the song “Home on the Range,” written by Daniel Kelley and Dr. Brewster Higley back in the 1940s, which became a classic.  It sang of a place in time where everything was good, and the only words one heard were supportive and encouraging.  A mythical place, to be sure, but it showed how desperately everyone needs to be encouraged!         It's been close to 70 years since that song became popular, but it still makes sense to us today.  I learned of the need for “an encouraging word” many years ago, during my time at one of my earlier churches, where I served as Pastor.  I had begun to complain about everything, almost every day; at some point, my wife merely suggested that we might be better off if I quit complaining all the time!  She was right, of course; I needed to hear encouraging words, and I needed to speak encouraging words – my wife needed to listen to them!                           Interestingly, the Bible teaches us this very thought:  “Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the  moment, that it may give grace to those who hear.” Ephesians 4:29 Here are a few emphases of the larger passage, which contains verse 29:   Encouraging words build others up.  “That it may give grace to those who hear.”  v.29  People need to be built up by fellow Christians . Encouraging words reflect Christian experience.  “Just as God in Christ has forgiven you.”  v. 32 Our faith in Jesus gives us the joy of forgiveness and salvation, and a reason for hope in life.   Encouraging words please God.  “Do not grieve the Holy Spirit.” v.30  Out of love and respect towards God, we are to speak in ways that will honor God and bring glory to Him.  God feels the pain of our sin and depravity!    So here is an obvious way God wants us to relate to others: Let us all speak an encouraging word, seeking the best in life.  When we are obedient to God's teachings in scripture, we build others up, encourage them in the hard times of this life, and serve to give people hope, based upon the truth that God is always at work in every situation.  There is a reason to be encouraged!    Your financial support is the backbone of our ministry, providing funding for outreach, facility upkeep, and essential resources.

Link: https://forms.gle/Uf3Xx3XyEUzBtQw69 In Part 2 of our #NoThirds series on bullying in ballet, we dig deeper into accountability, emotional health, and what it actually looks like to navigate harmful dynamics inside dance environments. Our guests explore how parents, students, and schools can recognize the signs of toxic training, respond to concerning behavior, and create space for honest conversations about what dancers are experiencing. As we address listener questions, we discuss the importance of listening closely to children, understanding the emotions behind their reactions, and knowing when a parent needs to step in. We also look at how communication with school leadership can resolve issues, why empowering dancers to speak up matters, and how consistent check-ins at home help identify problems early. The episode touches on the influence of social media and the value of reviews in pushing programs to improve. Part 2 continues the conversation parents and dancers need right now.

Have you noticed that social media is flooded with messages that are meant to encourage you? One-sentence phrases that seem wise and insightful? Encouraging content is nice, but what does it really do for you? Maybe it makes you smile, or it helps you feel better in the moment. But it can also make you feel stuck; it doesn't contain the challenging truths that lead to real change. I want to share the most important truth with you right now, because it's the most loving thing I can do. Here it is: Jesus is real. He already knows you, and He loves you without reservation. But if you want to know Him, you need to make a choice. Offer your heart to God in prayer. Come to Him. Get to know Jesus, love Him, follow Him. Always remember, there is hope with God. "Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise." Hebrews 10:23******** radio.hopewithgod.com

"Everything in this entire world… rises and falls on male leadership."  Strong male leadership shapes families, communities, and culture. When men show up with conviction, clarity, and responsibility, everyone around them rises. But when men avoid truth, hide from challenge, or drift without identity, the whole system breaks down. This conversation dives into the principles that help men reclaim strength: accountability, brotherhood, self-awareness, and the courage to confront what needs confronting.  David Ask shares how growing up around loyal, hardworking men gave him a foundation—but comparison and uncertainty still dragged him down for years. He explains how discovering his God-given identity changed everything, and why calling men up, not just out, can transform their confidence. His work centers on helping men see the greatness inside them and step into authentic authority.  David is a facilitator with Iron Sharpens Iron and a mentor to men seeking clarity, purpose, and spiritual grounding. His approach blends encouragement, emotional intelligence, and challenge to help men become who they were built to be.  Learn more & connect:   https://davidaskmusic.com/  https://www.youtube.com/user/davidboydask/videos   IG: @thedavidask  FB: https://www.facebook.com/DavidAskMusic/  Also in this episode:  Building the Bridge As You Walk On It: A Guide for Leading Change by Robert E.

Is apologetics restricted to just a select group of people? Is it merely for academics? What if we *all* took seriously the call to have answers, a defense, for the hope within (1 Peter 3:15)?  Women in Apologetics (WIA) is a Christian non-profit organization dedicated to educating, equipping, and encouraging women in the art of Christian apologetics. Dr. Jeff Myers talks with leaders from this organization about the importance of empowering women to develop a reasonable and confident faith, grounded in Scripture. Inspired by Luke 10:27, WIA strives to cultivate a holistic approach to faith—loving God with all our heart, soul, strength, and mind—while also loving and engaging our neighbors. Join us as we explore, learn, and grow together in faith and apologetics.

Matt Dalio, founder and CEO of Endless Studios, joins host Mike Palmer to explore the profound connection between games, technology, and workforce development. Matt, who grew up with an early global perspective—including a transformative year in China at age 11—brings his philanthropic drive to the world of scalable tech solutions . We dive into how Matt's company, Endless, initially focused on providing computers in emerging markets, realized that skills are what truly pay the bills. A simple math game, Tux Math, engaged students in a way traditional instruction could not, with classrooms full of kids shouting multiplication tables . The even bigger revelation? Many top tech entrepreneurs, including Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, started by hacking their games . Matt asserts that the goal is to transform kids from consumers to creators. We discuss how game creation, using tools like Unity and GitHub, develops five core, high-value disciplines: coding, design, digital art, management (product/project), and marketing/business analysis . These skills translate directly into a modern, AI-augmented workforce, where the ability to architect and validate production software is crucial. Key Takeaways: From Consumption to Creation: We need to move young people from passively using smartphones (consumption devices) to actively creating with devices that have a keyboard and mouse (creation devices), fostering a "lean forward" mindset . The Power of Hacking and Games: Learning starts when it becomes more fun to hack your games than to play them, leading to the development of deep, technical understanding. Five Core Disciplines: Game design is a launchpad for learning highly employable, durable skills in coding, design, digital art, management, and go-to-market business analysis . A New Model for Learning: The future of education involves immersing students in real projects on collaborative platforms like GitHub, replicating the workforce environment to teach mindsets like autonomy, agency, and teamwork . AI and the Future Developer: AI is a powerful tool, but it demands new skills: prompt engineering, chaining agent tools, and knowing how to architect, read, and debug production-level code to avoid technical "slop" and security issues. Why You Should Listen: The gap between traditional education and the demands of the AI-driven workforce is wider than ever. You'll hear Matt's global perspective on the rising number of high school students choosing not to pursue costly college degrees and the hunger for education in emerging markets. We discuss how the allure of video games—where the average kid spends 10,000 hours by graduation—can be channeled into productive, skills-building creation time . Matt shares an example of a Peruvian student who used his new skills to build a video game for rural communities to preserve their local language, illustrating the real-world, positive impact of this new educational approach . Listen to understand the model that could prepare the next generation to be "superhumans empowered by AI" .

Hi, friend. I hope you're having a good day.  Today's episode brings us to one of the unlikeliest heroes of the Bible—Rahab. Maybe you know her story. Maybe you relate to her story. Nothing to lose, pulled from the bottom of the pit and pressed into service for God's plan. God used her because she trusted him. May we all have that in common with Rahab.
