MARK 10:13-31 "[13] And they were bringing children to him that he might touch them, and the disciples rebuked them. [14] But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, “Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. [15] Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.” [16] And he took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them. [17] And as he was setting out on his journey, a man ran up and knelt before him and asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” [18] And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone. [19] You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.'” [20] And he said to him, “Teacher, all these I have kept from my youth.” [21] And Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “You lack one thing: go, sell all that you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.” [22] Disheartened by the saying, he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions. [23] And Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How difficult it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!” [24] And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said to them again, “Children, how difficult it is to enter the kingdom of God! [25] It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.” [26] And they were exceedingly astonished, and said to him, “Then who can be saved?” [27] Jesus looked at them and said, “With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.” [28] Peter began to say to him, “See, we have left everything and followed you.” [29] Jesus said, “Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands, for my sake and for the gospel, [30] who will not receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and in the age to come eternal life. [31] But many who are first will be last, and the last first.” ESV LESSON NOTES Harvard University, California Institute of Technology, Stanford University, MIT, and Princeton University have some of the lowest college acceptance rates in our country (3-4%). In many different fields, being outstanding seems to be the benchmark for entry (colleges, athletics, promotions, jobs). Within these realms, and others, personal achievements/accolades are the pathway to acceptance (Achievements = Acceptance) Children are great examples of people who are helpless, defenseless, and needy. Unlike adults, children come with no pretense, no artificial or adopted behaviors to impress people. Children come empty handed and they know how to ask for help. And they don't just ask for help, they eagerly receive it. Because of this, Jesus uses these little ones as examples of how one should receive the Kingdom. In Jesus' words in verses 14-15, we see two realities about entering the kingdom of God: 1.) Entrance into the Kingdom of God is received. 2) Entrance into the Kingdom of God is for the child-like. These two realities complement one another because if we are not child-like then we will not receive. In contrast to the child-like reception Jesus speaks about in verses 14-15, we see the rich man perceive eternal life as a matter of personal achievement. Within his conversation with Jesus, Jesus gives the man this command, "... go, sell all that you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.” (vs. 21) Going, selling, and giving were the means by which Jesus told this man to detach himself from his current master, his idol of possessions. These commands ultimately led to the ultimate command: "come, follow me". Yet, upon hearing this, the man walks away. From here we see a difficult truth: entrance into the Kingdom of God is not accepted by everyone. In the disciples day, those who were rich were considered to be blessed by God. Since this was the dominating ideology, those who were rich were virtually guaranteed a place in the kingdom of God because their wealth was evidence of God's blessing. This is why the disciples react so stunned after hearing Jesus' teachings in verses 23-26. They ask Jesus a sincere question ("Then who can be saved?") and Jesus responds with the perfect answer (“With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.”) Jesus lovingly reminds His disciples that entrance into the kingdom of God is completely beyond the sphere of human possibility. What we can't do in our humanity, God did in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. There is an ultimate connection between the child-likeness of verse 15 and the rich man of verse 22. This connection is seen in 3 aspects: Their records. Their responses. What they receive. 1.) Record - Child-like: No Significant Record / Rich man: Significant Record 2.) Response - Child-like: Eager Reception / Rich man: Sorrowful Rejection 3.) Receive - Child-like: Salvation / Rich man: Separation God restores Gospel goodbyes. When we leave good things and say goodbye to dear people for the sake of the Gospel, God does not leave us empty-handed. The God who is able “to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think” does not overlook our goodbyes when they are rooted in the name of Jesus. Entrance into the Kingdom of God gives the children of God hope for what is to come. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. As you remember your process of choosing where to go to college, what were some of the schools you were considering? Why? Did you end up at your "dream school"? 2. In your life, what environments or settings do you feel the most tempted/feel the most pressure to relay your personal accomplishments or accolades? Why those environments? 3. Receiving is different than earning. Why is this difference such a big deal in our relationship with God? In your walk with God, do you find it difficult to receive rather than earn? If so, in what aspects is it the most difficult? 4. Have you had any experience with someone walking away/rejecting Jesus? If so, what was that like for you to experience? As you read about this man's decision, what do you notice about Jesus' reaction/response? Does his response capture your attention in any way? 5. Are there any difficult statements/teachings from Jesus that you have had to wrestle with in your walk with Him? If so, what did/does that process look like for you? 6. As you process through this connection between the childlikeness of verse 15 and the rich man of verse 22, what sticks out the most to you? What speaks most deeply to your heart? 7. Have you ever had to say a "gospel goodbye" to something or someone? If so, how difficult was that? How has God shown up since then?

In an industry fixated on "what's in it for me," the fastest way to build an elite book of business is actually to give your time away for free. If you are joining non-profit boards or attending community events just to hunt for leads, your prospects will smell your commission breath from a mile away.My guest, Jeramie Holt, Senior Vice President at FNIC, joins me to share his masterclass on authentic community involvement. We discuss how his grassroots fundraising experience as a 10-year-old on rollerblades shaped his perspective on giving back, and how serving organizations like the Boys and Girls Club without expecting a dime ultimately built a deep, high-trust network of over 500 COIs. We also discuss why the era of "quote and pray" is dead, the danger of throwing buzzwords like "captives" and "level-funded" at uneducated buyers, and why doing the unscalable work - like running 29 in-person open enrollment meetings in a single week - is the ultimate separator for top advisors.▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Callcompletegameu.com/agaTimestamped Outline(00:00) From New Jersey to Colorado: Jeramie's Entrance into the Insurance Industry(04:36) The Old-School Grind: Making "Eight Calls Before Eight O'Clock"(07:34) Cultivating Trust: Why Authentic Community Involvement Builds Your Business(10:35) Rollerblades and the March of Dimes: Giving Back from a Young Age(14:06) The Danger of "What's In It For Me?": Why Selfish Networking Fails(17:06) The Suitcase Party: Raising $250,000 in One Night(21:21) The Death of "Quote and Pray": What Separates Elite Producers in 2026(24:20) Stagnant Mindsets: Why Employers Tolerate 10 Years of Sub-Par Broker Service(26:36) Stop the Buzzwords: Execution Matters More Than the Strategy You Sell(32:00) FNIC's Independence: Blending a Regional Approach with a National Feel(35:05) The "Unscalable" Differentiator: Running 29 Open Enrollment Meetings in One Week(40:03) Driving Results: How Education Kept $96,000 in a Client's Claims Bucket(42:01) Jeramie's Lightning Round: 5:45 AM Wakeups, Bodybuilding Competitions, and Caddying for His SonCONNECT WITH ANDY NEARY

Everyone and their mother (in my social circle, literally) is reading Dungeon Crawler Carl. But like, why? It seems like yesterday when litrpg as a genre was an obscure chimera isolated to certain Internet subcultures. A trancelike world untouched by the Freytag Pyramid bepopulate with a self-insert main character and a list of monsters from DnD. How did Dungeon Crawler Carl—which to an outsider's eye is part and parcel with the works that preceded it—achieve this outplaced virality? Entrance into the closely-guarded annals of modern literary canon? Does Dungeon Crawler Carl, like a certain species of lobe-finned fish which hundreds of millions of years ago stepped warily onto land, represent the adolescent stage of a slow but determined evolution of its kind? Or have the gatekeepers of literary canon, those silent unknowable communicants whose whims determine the intellectual vector of our species, grown soft? Weary? Desperate to welcome in a novitiate born not of greed, but creative frenzy?Idrk.

With the Premier League coming to a close and with it, the hypotheticals we've been talking about for the last few months becoming reality, it's time to look at the real winners and losers from this season. Who has performed to expectation based on money spent and who is well short of it? You'll guess a few. Add to that a look at Rugby League ahead of the Challenge Cup Final (this is the most requested topic we get by the way), and a review of the Enhanced Games after it finally kicked off in Las Vegas last week, and we have ourselves a breakdown.

This was supposed to be a match review.Instead, it became something else.Arsenal closed the Premier League season with victory away at Crystal Palace — but the football quickly gave way to reflection, celebration and everything that came with finally seeing the trophy lifted after a twenty-two-year wait. Elliot and Justin react to the final day atmosphere, the guard of honour at Selhurst Park, the celebrations in North London and the emotions of finally watching this Arsenal side complete the journey. There's discussion on the trophy presentation, the symbolism of seeing ownership hand over the title, Martin Ødegaard's moment as captain and the scenes shared across the Arsenal fanbase worldwide. On the pitch, there is still a game to review.The lads work through Mikel Arteta's heavily rotated starting XI, discuss Martin Zubimendi's surprise role at right back, look at Max Dowman's involvement and reflect on Gabriel Jesus marking the day with a goal in what could prove to be one of his final Premier League starts for Arsenal. The performance itself is unpacked through the lens of freedom, rotation and whether anything meaningful can actually be learned from football played after the title is already secured. There's also reflection on the moments behind the moments — player leadership, the conversations that helped carry the squad through difficult periods, the significance of lifting the trophy after years of near misses, and what this achievement means for the club's future rather than simply its past. And finally, one image, one quote and one feeling.Standing there together.Standing in our dreams.Chapters:(00:00) - Arteta's Non-Negotiables & Intro(00:18) - Match Review Setup & Champions Reflection(00:58) - Guard of Honour & Final Day Atmosphere(03:07) - Trophy Lift Emotions & Watching Arsenal Become Champions(06:15) - Kroenkes Deliver the Trophy & Symbolism Discussion(07:58) - Arteta's Entrance & Trophy Presentation(09:33) - Ødegaard Lifts the Trophy & Celebration Moments(10:41) - Favourite Celebration Scenes & “We Are Unbearable”(12:18) - Starting XI Reaction & Rotation Discussion(13:14) - Max Dowman Impressions & Christian Nørgaard Start(13:58) - Martin Zubimendi at Right Back Debate(15:53) - Midfield Selection & PSG Thoughts(18:50) - Gabriel Jesus Goal, Captaincy & Future Discussion(22:07) - Arsenal's Freedom, Match Context & Performance Reflection(23:47) - Palace Push Back & Closing Match Moments(25:42) - Match Stats & Control Analysis(28:30) - Post-Match Scenes Around North London(30:30) - Global Arsenal Celebrations & Fan Connection(32:29) - Mikel Arteta's Trophy Lift Reflections(34:02) - Josh Kroenke, Belief & What Comes Next(38:51) - Martin Ødegaard's Journey to the Title(41:10) - Declan Rice, Player Meetings & Leadership Voices(44:36) - Bukayo Saka, Perspective & “Standing In Our Dreams”(47:35) - PSG Question & Looking Towards the Final(49:22) - Outro & Champions Sign Off
We begin our study in the second chapter of this book, and look at how Paul and the apostles, though they suffered for the gospel's sake, did not enter into Thessalonica in vain, because the gospel was preached and that's what its all about!

What does it mean to enter the presence of God? Why has that been impossible until now, and what changed? Jesus said He was the door and Hebrews tells us He was the first to enter through that door. In this episode, Pastor Taylor speaks on the entrance into God's service for all believers in Hebrews 9:11-14.Get Connected! https://linktr.ee/reachtulsa

They talk superstitions, power-ponytails, and loose change, all while recognizing that the players have different things in mind, and that's a laser focus on winning the Stanley Cup!

EPYSODE 79: Speech by Steamhammer. Guest: Louis Cennamo. Additional commentary by the Psychedelic Wizard, Uncle Herff. This week we delve into 1972's Speech, the final album by Steamhammer. A masterful blend of blues-rock, progressive textures, and psychedelic experimentation. Speech showcases the band at a creative peak during an adventurous time in British rock. With help from bassist Louis Cennamo, we learn how he achieved that unique sound never before heard. And get a load of this: with Louis' blessing, we were able to include snippets of a couple tracks from the "lost" Steamhammer album, Axis, the album recorded after Speech that has never been released. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to Steamhammer, this epysode offers a deep dive into one of the most underrated British rock albums of the decade. I hope you dig Speech as much as I do. - Farmer John ===CONNECT & SUPPORT=== Transport yourself into the realm of grooviness by supporting us on Patreon for as little as $2/month using this link --> patreon.com/FarmerJohnMusic Use this link to follow us on Facebook --> https://www.facebook.com/farmerjohnmusic/ Use this link to follow us on Instagram --> https://www.instagram.com/vinylrelics/ Use this link to follow us on TikTok --> https://www.tiktok.com/@vinylrelicspodcast Use this link to follow us on BlueSky --> https://bsky.app/profile/farmerjohnmusic.bsky.social And find us on X @VinylRelicsPod Email me @ farmerjohnmusic@gmail.com ===LINKS=== Steve Joliffe 2019 Interview with Red Octupus Media: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFpLnsg5ShM Buy Louis' book "Awake In The Dream" here: https://www.amazon.com/Awake-Dream-Spiritual-Diary-Rockstar/dp/1917056737 ===THE MUSIC=== Songs used in this Epysode, in order of appearance.

This week, Jun and Daniel catch up on their busy lives. Jun rants about his tech startup's obsession with AI efficiency over actual value, sparking a deep dive into why the Korean mindset fixates on perfecting "methodology" and process rather than focusing on the big picture. Meanwhile, Daniel navigates his first Korean elementary school Iphaksik (entrance ceremony), observing everything from a surprisingly sobering speech by the principal to the painstakingly meticulous cultural requirement of labeling every single colored pencil with a name sticker.If you're interested in why Daniel's midnight comfort food has evolved into a bizarre "Spam Dubu Kimchi" hybrid, the game-theory brilliance behind Korea's shared traffic accident liability rules (where it's rarely 100-to-0), or why K-Pop idols are ironically wearing retro floral "Kimjang vests," this episode has it all. We also review BTS's massive, city-stopping comeback performance at Gwanghwamun Palace, marvel at Apple's genius Korean pun for their new M5 chip, and unpack a listener's email that leads to Daniel's realization that Pangyo might be the absolute worst place in Korea to experience true community and "Jeong."As a reminder, we publish our episodes bi-weekly from Seoul, South Korea.
