We dive into the third essential aspect of maturing in our faith this week with Colton Ernst teaching about fellowship. Fellowship is absolutely essential in how we grow in our faith, because "one can acquire everything in solitude, except character." God uses fellowship to grow us and to keep us built up and protected. If you distance yourself from fellowship then you make yourself an easy target. Fellowship is essential! - Key Verses // 1 John 1:7, Proverbs 27:17, Hebrews 10:24-25 - For Sermon Notes, the Connect Card, and our other online resources: https://linktr.ee/Celebrationchurchlive

After Czechoslovakia was annexed by Germany in 1938/1939, he was conscripted into the German army and was later taken prisoner and served time as a POW for the Americans, Canadians and British.Julius shares experiences that are not as widely studied or discuss but were shared by millions of citizens occupied by the Nazis during WW2.

In Russland werden die Versprechen des US-Präsidenten Donald Trump, den Konflikt in der Ukraine zu beenden, nicht ohne Ironie diskutiert. Aber mal im Ernst – warum sollte er das tun? Solange der Krieg andauert sowie bestehende Sanktionen in Kraft bleiben und neue verhängt werden, verdient er daran. Von Dmitri Rodionow
De Loodzware Jongens – aflevering 101! Wat krijg je als je een deathmetal-veteraan en een Spaanse gitaarvirtuoos in één band stopt? Juist — pure chaos met klasse!Deze week ontvingen we Joost van der Graaf (ex-Creepmime, ex-Pestilence, ex-Dew-Scented) en Javier Valdi, de Spaanse snarenkoning die hier het conservatorium plat speelde en samen met Joost de duisternis vormgeeft in The Curse Made Flesh.Rick was met Martyr onderweg naar Japan (met de groeten uit Tokio ), Sid hield de ziekenboeg draaiend, dus bleven de die-hards Rutger en Ernst over — en geloof ons: ook met twee man bleef het een waar metalen slagveld.Ernst stelde zijn befaamde prangende vragen, Rutger gooide weer met z'n ballen, en een voorproefje van The Curse Made Flesh deden de muren van dB's trillen.Nieuwe band, oude geesten, snoeiharde verhalen — en een vleugje Spaanse passie.

Stefan, was treibt dich jeden Tag an? Du bist seit 40 Jahren in der Erwachsenenbildung und immer noch voller Energie. Stefan Stadler: Heute motiviert mich, zu sehen, wie Menschen wachsen und ihr Potenzial entfalten. Angefangen hat es allerdings aus einer ganz anderen Motivation: Bei uns zu Hause war das Geld immer knapp. Ich komme aus einer Arbeiterfamilie. Meine Mutter hat das Haushaltsgeld in vier Wochenhäufchen aufgeteilt – und schon nach der ersten Woche war das Geld meist weg. Mein Vater musste regelmäßig um Vorschuss bitten. Da habe ich mir gesagt: So will ich nicht leben. Ich will Erfolg haben. Also habe ich mich gefragt: Wie wird man erfolgreich? Was braucht man für ein Mindset? Mit der Zeit habe ich gemerkt, dass es bei mir funktioniert – und dass ich es weitergeben kann. Heute habe ich in meinen Seminaren teilweise schon die dritte Generation von Teilnehmern. Zu sehen, was aus ihnen geworden ist, erfüllt mich mit Freude und Dankbarkeit. Ernst Crameri: Ich kenne das: Bei uns drehte sich alles ums Geld, und es hat nie gereicht. Ich habe entschieden: So nie wieder. Der Schlüssel ist Mindset und Persönlichkeitsentwicklung. Warum ist das so wichtig? Stefan: Weil Erfolg ein Bewusstseinszustand ist. Wer im Mangelbewusstsein lebt, zieht Mangel an. In der Quantenphysik kann man das heute sogar nachweisen. Deshalb bin ich ein Fan von Füllebewusstsein. „Nur ein Narr beklagt sich über das, was er nicht hat, der Weise ist dankbar für das, was er hat." Wenn du deinen Kühlschrank öffnest und mehr drin ist, als du essen kannst – bist du in der Fülle. Wenn du Rechnungen zahlen kannst und noch Geld übrig ist – bist du in der Fülle. Dankbarkeit ist der Schlüssel. Ich mache mir jedes Jahr eine Danke-Collage und richte meinen Fokus bewusst auf das, was funktioniert. Ernst Cramei: Hast du auch ein Dankbarkeitsbuch? Stefan: Ja. Wir haben ein „SAP-Potential-Tagebuch". Wer mit dem Wort Dankbarkeit nichts anfangen kann, nennt es einfach: Was hat mir heute Freude gemacht? Wichtig ist, den Fokus auf das zu richten, von dem man mehr haben möchte. Ernst Crameri: Das klingt leicht, ist aber harte Arbeit, oder? Stefan: Oh ja. Ich habe Jahre gebraucht, um meinen inneren Skeptiker umzuprogrammieren. Beeindruckt hat mich Viktor E. Frankl, der im KZ überlebte und sagte: „10 % unseres Lebens werden durch Umstände bestimmt, 90 % durch unsere Reaktion darauf." Das hat mich geprägt. Man kann diese Haltung trainieren, ohne erst leiden zu müssen. Ernst Crameri: Warum sind wir so negativ programmiert? Stefan: Vor allem in Deutschland werden Kinder früh mit Angst und Leistungsdruck geprägt. In Neuseeland heißt es zum Schulanfang: „Jetzt wird's richtig lustig!" – bei uns: „Jetzt beginnt der Ernst des Lebens." Zwei Weltkriege, Verlustdenken, Mangelmentalität – das steckt tief. Aber wir leben in einem der reichsten Länder der Erde. Wer hier nicht glücklich ist, muss an seinem Mindset arbeiten. Ernst Crameri: Raus aus dem Jammertal, rein in die Fülle! Stefan: Genau. Und ja – auch ich hatte mal Schulden und Rückschläge. Ich weiß, wie es ist, wenn die EC-Karte eingezogen wird. Doch durch Coachings und Persönlichkeitsentwicklung habe ich gelernt, mein Denken zu ändern – und damit mein Leben. Heute ist alles leichter, erfüllter und erfolgreicher. Ich bin überzeugt: Lösungsorientierung ist der Schlüssel. Probleme gibt es immer, aber entscheidend ist, wie wir darauf reagieren. Ernst Crameri: Zum Schluss: Du hast fünf Kinder. Wie kam das? Stefan: (lacht) Nicht geplant. Es hat sich einfach ergeben – jedes Kind war ein Geschenk. Natürlich ist das Arbeit, aber auch pure Erfüllung. Kinder sind großartige Lehrer für Achtsamkeit und Klarheit. Wenn man Nein meint, muss man Nein ausstrahlen – das habe ich durch sie gelernt. Heute sind sie erwachsen, und ich bin unglaublich dankbar für diese Erfahrung. Ernst Crameri: Wunderschön.

Erste St. Moritzer Mastermind – wie genial klingt das! Ich habe schon viele Masterminds gemacht, doch wenn sich kluge Köpfe treffen und ehrlich austauschen, entsteht immer etwas Magisches. Jeder teilt offen, was im Jahr super, herausragend oder auch miserabel war. Dadurch bekommst du wertvolle Inputs, die dich weiterbringen – und lernst aus den Erfahrungen anderer. Warum dieselben Fehler machen, wenn du von Erfolgen und Flops anderer profitieren kannst? Lerne von Menschen, die schon dort sind, wo du hinmöchtest. Beziehungen sind das A und O. Vitamin B – Beziehung, Beziehung, Beziehung. Ein starkes Netzwerk ist Gold wert – besonders, wenn du jederzeit jemanden fragen kannst: „Wie würdest du das machen?" Genau das schafft eine Mastermind: Austausch auf Augenhöhe, Unterstützung, Wachstum. St. Moritz vor Weihnachten – pure Magie. Fünf-Sterne-Hotels, Lichterglanz, verschneite Berge – wir genießen Teatime im Palace Hotel, fliegen bei schönem Wetter mit dem Helikopter, essen gourmetmäßig auf höchstem Niveau und erleben St. Moritz so, wie es kein Tourist tut. Am 6. Dezember wird im Palace Hotel der riesige Weihnachtsbaum erleuchtet – mit Musik, Glühwein, Schokolade und Gebäck. Diese Atmosphäre ist einzigartig und unvergesslich. Ich bin in St. Moritz aufgewachsen, war viele Jahre Privat-Skilehrer dort und kenne alle besonderen Orte und Momente. Du wirst die Stadt von ihrer schönsten Seite erleben – authentisch, exklusiv, emotional. Warum solltest du dabei sein? Ganz einfach: Komm raus, nimm Abstand, tanke Wissen und Inspiration. Gerade vor Weihnachten tut es gut, durchzuatmen und neue Impulse zu bekommen. Wir haben spannende Vorträge von Hochkarätern, die dich beruflich und persönlich weiterbringen. Und: Als Teilnehmer der ersten Mastermind bekommst du einen Sonderpreis – danach wird der Preis steigen. Diese Entscheidung kann dein Jahr verändern. Ich selbst habe aus Masterminds Freundschaften fürs Leben gewonnen – Kontakte, die bis heute bestehen. Und mal ehrlich: Du kannst natürlich auch auf einen Weihnachtsmarkt gehen – aber St. Moritz mit Schnee, Bergen und dieser Traumkulisse kann kein Ort der Welt toppen. Wer einmal dort war, vergisst es nie. Warum sind die Reichsten der Reichen dort? Ganz einfach: Weil es magisch ist. Nach Nikolaus beginnt in St. Moritz die festliche Hochsaison – Weihnachten, Silvester, Glamour pur. Dazu kommt der Austausch mit inspirierenden Menschen aus verschiedenen Bereichen. Ein echter Blick hinter die Kulissen des Erfolgs. Viele Menschen sagen, sie kommen im Leben oder Business nicht voran – oft fehlt einfach das richtige Umfeld, die richtigen Impulse. Eine Mastermind ist genau dafür da: Verbindungen, Perspektive, Energie. Triff die Entscheidung. Denn ob du kommst oder nicht – für mich ändert sich nichts, aber für dich alles. Ich werde auf jeden Fall da sein – und wir werden riesigen Spaß haben, feiern, Livemusik genießen und das Nachtleben erleben. Magisch hoch zwei – exklusiv, klein, intensiv. Wenn du sagst: „Das spricht mich an", dann schick mir eine Nachricht und lass uns kurz sprechen, ob es für dich passt. Wir sehen uns vom 5. bis 7. Dezember 2025 in St. Moritz! Tschüss, bye bye, dein Ernst. #StMoritzerMastermind #Ernstcrameri #StMoritz #Mastermind #Networking #Erfolg #LuxusEvent #Nikolaus #PalaceHotel #Mindset #LernenVonDenBesten #MagiePur #Adventszeit #SchweizErleben #Inspiration Hier findest du eine Übersicht aller aktuellen Seminare https://crameri.de/Seminare Crameri-Akademie Wenn Du mehr über diesen Artikel erfahren möchtest, dann solltest Du Dich unbedingt an der folgenden Stelle in der Crameri-Akademie einschreiben.

Jetzt bist du an der Reihe! Ja, richtig gehört. Heute geht es um dich und deine Vision für die Reiki Gemeinschaft. Dir fällt nichts ein? Das hab ich mir schon gedacht :-P Mal im Ernst. Hältst du dich für so klein und unbedeutend, dass du meinst, deine Vorstellungskraft könne nichts ausrichten? Du bist mit einer großartigen Schöpferkraft gesegnet, also warum diese nicht mal anschmeißen und anfangen groß zu denken? „Ich kann nicht, weil… Es geht nicht, weil… Das machen schon andere… und viele weitere Ausreden habe ich bis jetzt gehört, wenn es darum geht, selbst in die Handlung zu kommen. Viele Reiki Praktizierende haben Angst, den ersten Schritt zu wagen. Angst zu scheitern, Angst vor den Reaktionen anderer, Angst vor Ablehnung, Demotivation, wenig Durchhaltevermögen, Sprunghaftigkeit, Erwartungen an andere und viele andere Ausflüchte spuken in den Köpfen herum. Heute fordere ich dich mal aus deiner Komfortzone heraus. Willst du ein Mitläufer sein, oder etwas eigenes auf die Beine stellen? Willst du ewig im Hintergrund bleiben oder die Initiative ergreifen und den Weg für nachfolgende Lichtarbeiter bereiten? Es ist viel einfacher als du glaubst! Höre dir die heutige Folge an und erfahre, ✨ wie du aufhören kannst, dich klein zu machen und zu begrenzen ✨ warum genau JETZT die richtige Zeit ist, für deine Vision loszugehen✨ wie du starten kannst, deine Vision der Reiki Gemeinschaft zu nähren ✨ wie du dich mit dem Feld deiner idealen Reiki Gemeinschaft verbinden kannst ✨ erhalte Ideen und Inspirationen für deinen Beitrag zur Stärkung der Reiki Gemeinschaft Sei nicht frustriert, wenn es vielleicht auf Anhieb nicht klappt. Gut Ding will Weile haben. Warte nicht auf andere. Ideen wollen umgesetzt werden. Wenn du nicht deine Ideen umsetzt, dann macht es jemand anderes. Auch wenn du denkst, du seiest zu klein, zu unwichtig, zu sonstwas – deine Gedanken sind machtvoll. Deine Gedanken sind stark. Verbinde dich mit deiner Schöpferkraft. Ich lade dich dazu ein, deine Gedanken ins Feld zu geben und gemeinsam eine wundervolle Zukunft zu erschaffen, eine lichtvolle Zukunft aus der JETZT-Zeit heraus, jener Zeit, die wir eines Tages als die Zeit der Transformation und des Neubeginns betiteln werden. Ich danke dir!In herzlichster Verbundenheit. Deine Maja „REIKI DEEPDIVE - Be part of the process. BE US!“ LINKS ZU DIESER EPISODE :

Am 7. November hätte der Gründer der legendären Egerländer Musikanten seinen 100. Geburtstag gefeiert. Die unglaubliche Karriere von Ernst Mosch und seinen Egerländer Musikanten begann im Jahr 1956. Laut Angaben des «Mosch Musikverlags» verkaufte Ernst Mosch im Laufe der Jahrzehnte mehr als 44 Millionen Tonträger. Seine Aufnahmen und Kompositionen erfreuen sich nach wie vor grosser Beliebtheit.

Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA), the first female combat veteran elected to the U.S. Senate and author of Daughter of the Heartland: My Ode to the Country that Raised Me, joined The Guy Benson Show today to discuss the now record-breaking government shutdown, which has become the longest in U.S. history. Sen. Ernst weighed in on the fiery exchange between Senators Moreno and Rosen, where Moreno thrashed Rosen for refusing to acknowledge that Democrats are the real holdouts in the ongoing shutdown, as they are actively holding out votes for a clean CR. Ernst also reacted to the Trump administration's latest military strikes targeting cartel boats in international waters, and she ended the interview by discussing her new bill aimed at selling off vacant federal buildings to save taxpayer money.

Devin Johnson is a tech entrepreneur and AI innovator who has built multiple high‑growth SaaS companies by combining an obsessive focus on relationships with cutting‑edge automation. His entrepreneurial journey began at 16, when a series of family hardships — a father involved in drugs, a sister battling brain cancer and the death of a close friend — pushed him to start flipping sneakers to support his household . The success of that side hustle gave him early exposure to marketing and sales . By age 19 he had become a devout Christian and found a mentor in Cody Harvey; together they would later found and build the digital marketing agency Kennected .In 2018 Johnson and Harvey sketched an idea on a napkin: software to automate LinkedIn outreach. Frustrated by the hours he spent prospecting, Johnson “founded Kennected out of pure frustration” . As CEO he grew the Indianapolis‑based SaaS company to more than 15,000 users and over 100 employees , generating more than $15 million in annual sales . Under his leadership Kennected landed on the Inc. 5000 list at No. 583 with 832 % three‑year revenue growth , a testament to his ability to turn vision into execution. Employees describe him as an inspirational, empathetic leader who values relationships over profit and fosters a culture of hard work and positivity . He has been willing to “take massive action” since high school, travelling across the U.S. to conferences simply to network with potential clients .After stepping away from Kennected, Johnson co‑founded SalesAI, a next‑generation sales enablement platform. SalesAI uses autonomous AI agents to qualify leads and provide real‑time voice‑ and text‑based sales conversations, reducing average response times from an hour to seconds . The platform integrates directly into a customer's CRM to manage outreach via voice, SMS and email, and is scaling revenue more than 20 % month‑over‑month . Johnson is a four‑time Inc. 500 founder with two successful exits and has been named Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year . He is a frequent speaker at AI and SaaS conferences, sharing frameworks on speed‑to‑lead and how to build AI‑first companies . Through appearances on podcasts such as Dropping Bombs, Sharkpreneur, and The Mind of George Show, he encourages entrepreneurs to harness AI while doubling down on human connection.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/devin-johnson-salesai/

To accompany you on any trick or treating or early morning/late night wakenings this weekend we bring you our spooky Samhain special! Dr Hannah Mac Auliffe, Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Maynooth University, explains how the festival of Samhain appears in medieval Irish literature as a time for feasting and merriment, with the High King's Feast of Tara taking place on Halloween in several medieval stories. And just as we gather together and tell stories of demons and ghouls each October 31st, so too did the people of medieval Ireland. We hear of everything from zombies, threefold deaths and beheadings to werewolves, witches and kidnappings by the fairy armies of the sídhe.

Episode Summary: In this special crossover episode of the Solar Maverick Podcast, host Benoy Thanjan sits down with Ana Conde from PVcase originally featured on her Watt Matters Podcast to break down one of the most critical stages of solar project development: site selection and feasibility. From choosing the right land and navigating interconnection hurdles to understanding permitting, moratoriums, and evolving market dynamics, Benoy shares hard-earned lessons from developing over 100 MW of solar projects across the U.S. He also discusses how technology, AI, and relationships all play a role in finding and executing the right solar sites. This conversation is packed with practical insights for developers, EPCs, investors, and anyone who wants to understand how the best projects actually get built. Topics Covered: What truly defines a “good” solar site and how to spot red flags early How developers can evaluate flat land, proximity to three-phase power, and interconnection feasibility The growing challenges in saturated markets like New York and New Jersey How to navigate solar moratoriums, endangered species issues, and permitting Real-world lessons from community solar and rooftop projects, including NYCHA's Harlem portfolio The role of AI, GIS tools, and automation in speeding up site selection and design Why relationships, transparency, and trust still matter more than ever How the “Big Beautiful Bill” and regulatory uncertainty are reshaping the solar landscape Trends shaping the future: solar + storage, repowering assets, and new market geographies Notable Quote: “At the end of the day, you can have all the technology in the world, but if you can't build relationships, it's a lot harder to develop great projects. People do business with those they know, like, and trust.” Key Takeaway: Solar success starts long before construction. Smart site selection, community engagement, and disciplined feasibility analysis separate projects that thrive from those that never get off the ground.

Founder of Hobby Lobby, David Green, released a new book called The Legacy Life: Leading Your Family to Make a Difference for Eternity, that offers a Biblical framework for building multigenerational impact. In this conversation, hosts, Joey Svendsen and Jack Hoey, Jr. talk with David and co-author, Bill High, about the principles shared in their book, as well as a little about the Hobby Lobby story. From humble beginnings, David set out to be people-oriented in all of his business practices, including being generous with Hobby Lobby's earnings—giving half to charities and outreaches. David and Bill share what life truly is about—spoiler alert, it's not money. The Legacy Life presents a paradigm-shifting perspective on living with eternal significance. Rather than accepting the conventional work until retirement approach, Green and High call readers to embrace a biblical, generational mindset that creates lasting impact across multiple generations. At top of episode, the host crew discuss their current heart postures toward money and share some disagreement about the vegetable, corn. David Green: Founder/CEO of Hobby Lobby employing 50,000 people at 1,000 stores in 48 states and grosses nearly $8 billion a year. Author of Leadership Not by the Book and The Leader's Devotional, Green received the World Changer and the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Awards. David, his wife, Barbara, and their children, grandchildren, and great-grands all live in Oklahoma City. Bill High: CEO of Legacy Stone, a ministry dedicated to helping families thrive today and for generations to come. Bill also founded one of the largest charitable foundations in the country where they facilitated more than $6 billion in gifts. He has consulted with families on a global basis on the subject of family legacy. He is the author and coauthor of several books, including Leadership Not by the Book. He lives with his wife, Brooke, in the Kansas City area.
