Psalm 90 has one of my favorite phrases and prayers which encapsulates these words of Moses to God — “establish the work of our hands, yes establish the work of our hands.” But in football (soccer) it’s the feet that get used most — so does God establish the work of our feet? Sure, I believe He does. He’s the one who sets out the cones, He marks the lines. I wrote Soccer Psalm 90 so that athletes in soccer can realize that we have a certain degree of frailty. Many times when we are young, athletic — we can feel invincible, we can feel unbreakable. That is, until we break. Our first injury might seem minor or it might be major, but it reminds us that we are dependent — upon others (doctors, physios, and more) and upon God. God can help us steward our lives, our careers if we will but let Him. He will show us where to go and open certain doors that might have been previously closed off to us. We should invite Him into these aspects of our lives — more on this in this week’s podcast. The Soccer Psalms, is a self-published book available on Amazon. (You can also find The Football Psalms-a British version-if you appreciate the different terms around the game). Both books are available globally on Amazon and contain 31 psalms that have been translated into “soccer psalms” — with words, language, and metaphors that connect soccer to God’s Word. I also include some reflection on the context and writing as well as some questions for reflection. Check out the book below: The Soccer Psalms: https://mybook.to/thesoccerpsalms The Football Psalms: https://mybook.to/thefootballpsalms-uk Los Salmos del Fútbol: https://mybook.to/lossalmosdelfutbol From the Touchline is a short-feature (10-15 min) podcast with Rev Brad Kenney, Founder and Executive Director of Soccer Chaplains United and Volunteer Chaplain to the Colorado Rapids of Major League Soccer.

How to write a willWe all know it's something we should do — but it's easy to put off. For many adults, estate planning, especially writing a will, gets pushed down the to-do list for another month, another year or even another decade. In fact, many people don't begin the process until well into their 60s, sometimes after a major health scare or family change forces the conversation. But taking the time to get your affairs in order earlier can make a meaningful difference, according to experts. It gives you more control over your decisions, your assets and how you want to care for the people you love. And just as importantly, it can ease the emotional and financial burden often placed on families during an already difficult time. Wednesday on the "Sound of Ideas," a Northeast Ohio attorney explains what you need to know about creating a will, why it matters and how to get started. Guest:- Helen Rapp, Staff Attorney, Economic Justice Group, The Legal Aid Society of Cleveland Akron nonprofit organization engages students through sneaker cultureLater in the hour, a nonprofit organization in Akron is hoping to reach young people through sneaker culture — and the effort comes at a critical time. Last summer, a mass shooting at Mason Community Learning Center left more than a dozen young people injured. In response, Akron city leaders committed $100,000 to youth sports and wellness programs and reinvested in other crime-deterring efforts. But how can communities connect with kids before they reach a crisis point? The Akron Sneaker Academy says its working to address this by using shoes as a gateway to hands-on learning, mentorship and exposure to science and technology. Guests:- Dominique Waters, Founder & Executive Director, Akron Sneaker Academy- Michael Redovian, M.D., Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, Akron Children's Hospital

On this week’s SoloPod, our host Angela Rye is joined by the Executive Director for the Congressional Black Caucus, Vincent Evans, to discuss the SAVE Act, and touch on the Target Boycott. Full Fannie Lou Hamer Clip: https://www.instagram.com/reels/DCGNnm7oqZF/ Presented by Republicans as a bill to protect against non-citizens voting, the SAVE Act would disenfranchise tens of millions of Americans of their right to vote by adding additional requirements to register, like providing a birth certificate. It’s a xenophobic reinterpretation of so-called “Voter ID” laws which conservatives have pushed for decades to reduce the voting power of mostly poor and minority communities. They believe that high voter turnout in elections benefits Democrats. The Senate is debating the SAVE act today, it’s already passed through the House. Mandatory Disclaimer: there is no evidence of non-citizens voting at a scale large enough to impact U.S. elections. Want to ask Angela a question?

➡️ Get the full show notes and episode breakdown at Biology of Trauma® Podcast - Is the Need to Always Be “Good” a Trauma Response? What does your body do with guilt it can never undo?  Have you ever done everything right — and still felt something unresolved living in your body? Maybe it's not a dramatic story. Maybe it's just a moment you can't stop replaying. A decision you can't forgive yourself for. A version of you that acted against your own values — and your nervous system never got the memo that it's over. That's what this episode is about. Gregg Ward accidentally took someone's life at 18. For 46 years, it lived in his body — flushed skin, tense shoulders, a loop that no amount of success, service, or self-improvement could stop. In this conversation with Dr. Aimie, he shares what moral injury actually is, why the body keeps reliving a story with no ending, and how movement became his nervous system's path through what therapy alone couldn't reach. This is not a story about grief resolved. It's a story about grief metabolized. And the moment the burden finally lifted — not when the pain disappeared, but when the purpose stopped being about him. If something in you has never fully quieted — no matter how much work you've done — this conversation was made for you. Gregg Ward is the founder and Executive Director of the Center for Respectful Leadership. He is a global speaker, thought leader, and bestselling author.

In this episode, Dr. Laura Scherck Wittcoff sits down with Shilpa Alva, Founder of Surge for Water, to discuss how a childhood moment of witnessing inequality in Mumbai sparked a lifelong mission to bring clean water, sanitation, hygiene, and menstrual health solutions to underserved communities worldwide. Shilpa shares her journey from the corporate world to founding an organization that operates on a revolutionary model: women-led, community-owned development that breaks the cycle of poverty.

Whether you're ready for Spring Break or still have a few weeks until Spring Break, the reality is that there isn't much of the school year left. There are many assessments and IEP meetings that need to be scheduled now. In today's episode, we are talking with a wonderful guest, really getting into the trenches of evaluations and the escalating attendance crisis of the last few years. Join us to learn more!Dr. Dennis Lefevre recently served as the Executive Director of Student Support Services in a small, high-performing school district in southern CA. Prior to that role, he worked in various capacities in public, non-public, and private school settings with thousands of preschool, elementary, and secondary students. He had a front-row seat to the unfolding attendance crisis and became increasingly frustrated by the lack of ownership among school, home, and community.

What if your event menu was the most powerful branding tool your destination has? In this episode, Tracy is joined by Erik Wolf, Founder and Executive Director of the World Food Travel Association and the pioneer behind the global "Taste of Place" movement.

Across America, thousands of business owners are quietly approaching retirement — and many have no succession plan in place. For communities, that represents a major economic risk: lost jobs, closed storefronts, and the potential loss of locally rooted businesses. In this episode of Develop This!, host Dennis Fraise sits down with Mark Piekos, Executive Director of the McHenry County Economic Development Corporation, to explore how communities can turn the coming wave of business transitions into an economic development opportunity. Mark shares insights from Strong Transitions, an innovative program helping business owners prepare for exit while connecting them with the next generation of entrepreneurs. The initiative provides advisory support, builds a network of professional experts, and helps communities retain businesses through local ownership and thoughtful succession planning. Mark brings a unique perspective to the role. A lifelong resident of McHenry County and former small business owner, he also previously led the Illinois Small Business Development Center at McHenry County College, giving him firsthand experience helping entrepreneurs launch and grow businesses. Together, Dennis and Mark discuss why succession planning is often overlooked, the risks communities face if they ignore it, and how economic developers can build programs that protect local businesses, preserve jobs, and strengthen their economic base. If your community wants to retain businesses, build entrepreneurship pipelines, and prepare for the coming transition wave, this conversation is a must-listen. Key Topics Covered Why 73% of privately held businesses are expected to transition in the next decade The economic development risks of unplanned business exits How the Strong Transitions program connects business owners and successors The role of Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition (ETA) Why succession planning should be a core business retention strategy Building an advisor bench to support business transitions Marketing strategies to reach business owners who rarely talk about exit plans How communities can start their own succession planning initiatives Memorable Quotes "Succession planning is one of the biggest economic development issues that no one is talking about."

This week thousands of podcasters around the world take part in Podcastathon, a global effort that shines a spotlight on nonprofit organizations doing meaningful work in their communities. For one week, hosts swap their usual topics for stories about causes they care about and invite their listeners to learn more, get involved, or lend support. This episode is my contribution to that global event, and it gave me the perfect excuse to talk about one of my favorite nonprofits. Sometimes the hardest part of marketing isn't getting attention. It's helping people feel comfortable enough to try something new. That is exactly the challenge when you run a Fringe theater festival. In this episode, I chatted with Paul Daly, Executive Director of the IF Theatre in Indianapolis. IF Theatre is the home of the Indy Fringe Festival, one of the largest fringe festivals in the world, bringing dozens of performers and hundreds of shows to Mass Ave every summer. The festival celebrates creativity, experimentation, and the kind of performances you will not see anywhere else. But that same freedom can make newcomers hesitate. When audiences are not quite sure what they are getting into, they may stay home. Paul shared a simple marketing approach designed to make the experience easier to say yes to. Takeaways Give people a path into the experience Fringe festivals can feel overwhelming. With so many shows and styles, first timers do not always know where to start. This year IF Theatre plans to introduce curated show lists. Want a day of comedy? There is a list for that. Prefer serious drama or an eclectic mix? There are paths for those too. Instead of asking people to sort through dozens of options, the festival gives them a starting point. • Help people understand what to expect Younger audiences especially want clarity before they commit. What will this experience feel like? Is it funny, thought provoking, weird, or a little bit of everything? Clear descriptions and curated experiences remove uncertainty and make it easier for someone to buy that first ticket. • Tell the bigger story behind the brand Many people know Indy Fringe as a ten day festival. What they may not know is that IF Theatre runs year round programs, classes, and performances. One key message they continue to repeat is simple. IF Theatre is the organization. Indy Fringe is its biggest event. The lesson here is straightforward. When people feel unsure, they hesitate. When you guide them, they step forward. And sometimes all it takes is showing them where to start.              

In this episode of The Sacred Speaks, host Dr. John W Price sits down with mythologist and storyteller Dr. John Bucher, Executive Director of the Joseph Campbell Foundation, to explore how story functions as a living force that shapes our lives, culture, and sense of meaning. They trace John's early "graduate degree in storytelling" in a small Texas video store, move through themes like the quest to come home, reconciliation with the father, and the "magical orphan," and show how our favorite films reveal the deep mythic patterns we're unconsciously living. The conversation dives into archetypes, subtext, AI as a new cultural story, the loss of shared myths in a hyper-individualized media landscape, and the possibility of a "collective heroic journey" where groups answer a shared call of desperation rather than a single hero saving the day. John also offers very practical tools for "telling a better story" in our own lives, from changing our information diet to small daily rituals that reorient us toward hope, connection, and agency. Key Takeaways: John Bucher: Telling A Better Story Stories and myths are the "operating system" of the human mind, shaping how we make sense of everything from traffic to transcendence. What truly draws us into stories is not plot but theme, like coming home or reconciling with the father. Our favorite movies quietly reveal our core genres, themes, and unresolved psychological material. We are losing shared cultural stories, which contributes to loneliness and fragmentation. Finding a "better story" starts locally: in our media diet, daily practices, and small collective actions.

In this powerful conversation, Corinna Bellizzi speaks with Osprey Orielle Lake, founder and executive director of the Women's Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN), about how climate justice movements around the world are working to transform our relationship with nature, power, and community. Osprey's work bridges grassroots activism, Indigenous leadership, international climate negotiations, and legal innovations like the Rights of Nature movement. Drawing from her book The Story Is in Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis, she explores how systems like colonization, extractive economics, and patriarchy have shaped today's ecological crises — and how new stories rooted in reciprocity, justice, and stewardship can guide the path forward. This conversation explores the role of Indigenous knowledge in climate solutions, the fight against fossil fuel expansion, the growing global push for legal protections for ecosystems, and the importance of community-led restoration efforts around the world. Originally recorded in 2024, this episode remains deeply relevant today as movements for climate justice, land stewardship, and ecological restoration continue to gain momentum globally.

Radical Islamic terrorism struck yet again on Thursday—this time, in both Michigan and Virginia. That makes four separate Islamist terror attacks on the home front just in the past two weeks. At what point is enough finally enough? What can we do about this gargantuan subversive fifth column in our midst? All options, including deportation and denaturalization proceedings, must be on the table. Josh also offers a personal, direct plea to American Jews to arm and train themselves, and to take their security into their own hands. Later, Heather Johnston, Founder and Executive Director of the U.S. Israel Education Association, joins the program to discuss the war with Iran, the importance of U.S.-Israel relations, and the unholy war that many propagandists are now waging on the indispensable Jewish-Christian biblical alliance. Josh closes the show by analyzing the latest war-related comments from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and indicating what specifically he will be looking out for over the course of the weekend.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Story is our brain's first language.And our minds fill in a story's blanks long before the facts catch up.Before we consciously interpret an event, our nervous system has already scanned for threat and sent that information to our brains, which in turn builds a narrative about what it means. We're constantly interpreting events, and not always accurately. Research has shown that negative information carries more psychological weight than positive information. That bias isn't a flaw–it's survival wiring. But what protects us biologically can distort us relationally.Unexamined stories shape our leadership. They shape how we interpret feedback. They shape how we respond to conflict. They shape culture. They shape trust.Which is why reclaiming “storyteller” as a skill set matters.Good storytelling connects to our capacity for joy, along with our ability to connect to what is truly authentic for us, which plays a role in the stories we tell ourselves and others. Today's guest digs into how to become a better storyteller—with yourself and with others—why joy is a skill that helps regulate our state and expand capacity, and how connecting to our authenticity is essential to telling good stories. Shabnam Mogharabi is an entertainment executive, producer, and New York Times bestselling author with 20 years of experience in mission-driven media.

Executive Director of the White House Task Force for the FIFA World Cup 2026, Andrew Giuliani, joins the morning show to talk about being appointed by President Trump to oversee operations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup across 16 host cities in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, with 48 teams, about 91 days away. He says the job has become harder amid an Iran conflict and because the Department of Homeland Security is shut down, affecting TSA capacity, cybersecurity readiness, and planning for millions of additional summer travelers, including events tied to America's 250th birthday. Giuliani warns of massive cyber threats, noting the last World Cup saw over 15 billion thwarted cyberattacks and that organizers expect nearly double. The conversation also covers NIL and transfer rules in college sports, arguing football and men's basketball drive revenue while unchecked payments and free agency threaten Olympic and women's sports, and that congressional action is needed.

Since the start of 2026, a string of hospital networks in blue states that legally mandate gender affirming care for trans youth have abruptly ended these programs, leaving thousands of kids and their families in the lurch.
