July 31, 2025 Today's Reading: Catechism: What is Confession?Daily Lectionary: 1 Samuel 16:1-23; Acts 25:13-27Confession has two parts. First, that we confess our sins, and second, that we receive absolution, that is, forgiveness, from the pastor as from God himself, not doubting, but firmly believing that by it our sins are forgiven before God in heaven. (Explanation of What Is Confession, Luther's Small Catechism)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. One of the simplest ways that we learn to do things, for example, learn our ABCs and count our 123s, is when someone says them and then turns to us and says, "Now it's your turn. Repeat after me." Something like that happens when we come to God's gift of confessing our sins. When we open the Catechism and God's Word, one of the first things we learn is that there's a problem within each of us. We all have sin. Capital “S” sin. And we commit sins because of our sinful flesh - what Luther calls our Old Adam. So the Commandments teach us the truth, echoing God's word of law throughout the Scriptures. And what do they say? They say, “You are a sinner.” And what do we say back? Yes, you're right. I am a sinner. Lord, have mercy on me, a poor, sinful being. This is one of the things that happens whenever we confess our sins. We are simply saying back what God's Word says about our capital “S” sin and all our little (and not so little) sins we commit because of our sinful flesh. Thankfully, this isn't the only thing that happens when we confess our sins. As St. John reminds us, when we confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. The same Lord who, by the working of the Holy Spirit, convicts us of our sin and moves us to confess that sin is the same Lord who, by his Son, Jesus, also forgives sin, both Capital S sin and all our sins. And because God is a gracious giver and an abundant forgiver, he gives His Gifts of forgiveness in more than one way. He washes away our sin in Baptism. He feeds us with forgiveness in the Lord's Supper. He speaks his forgiveness in his word. And he sends pastors as his messengers to deliver Good News: I forgive you all your sin. And that is the good news that Absolution brings: forgiveness of all your sin. And should you ever doubt God's forgiveness, or worry that your sin is too great, simply repeat the words your pastor says on Sunday, or ask him to repeat them for you: I forgive you all your sins, in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen!In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Lord, on You I cast my burden - Sink it in the deepest sea! Let me know Your gracious pardon, Cleanse me from iniquity. Let Your Spirit leave me never; Make me only Yours forever. (LSB 608:4)Rev. Samuel Schuldheisz, pastor of Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church in Milton, WA.Audio Reflections Speaker: Pastor Jonathan Lackey is the pastor at Grace Lutheran Church, Vine Grove, KY.Step back in time to the late Reformation and learn about a divisive yet inspirational figure: Matthias Flacius Illyricus. His contributions to Lutheranism still echo in our teachings today, from the Magdeburg Confession to parts of the Lutheran Confessions. Learning about Flacius's life will help you understand more intricacies of the Reformation than ever before.

When it comes to wellness, many people are overwhelmed by all the choices. From supplements to shakes to oils, it can be hard to know what actually works and who to trust. Some products promise quick results. Others sound too good to be true. And with so much information online, it's easy to feel confused or unsure. That's why real conversations matter. Sometimes, what people need most is not a product but someone who listens, shares honestly, and points them toward small steps that make a real difference. The truth is, wellness should never feel like pressure. It's not about being perfect or doing everything at once. It's about finding what works for your body and your life. That often starts with education, asking questions, learning what ingredients actually do, and being open to trying something new without guilt or fear. When health and wellness are offered with kindness, patience, and honesty, it becomes easier to focus on what really matters. At the end of the day, wellness isn't about selling or following trends. It's about helping others feel good, live well, and make informed choices that truly support their health. And sometimes, the simplest tools shared with care can have the biggest impact. Raina Windham is a dynamic entrepreneur, devoted mother and wife, and the Senior Vice President of Bravenly Global. With a passion for health and wellness, she leads efforts to promote natural, science-backed products designed to help people feel better, look better, and live healthier lives. In this episode, I talk with Raina Windham about how she started with Bravenly and why helping people feel better is her main goal. We talk about the importance of trust, clean ingredients, and how simple wellness tools can support busy people like moms, teachers, and caregivers. Raina also shares why it's okay to ask questions, learn first, and take care of your own health without pressure.   "Listening to the customer first, just like you would listen to your patient first, then offering them solutions to help them, and continuing to follow up." – Raina Windham   Topics Covered: (00:00:26) Welcoming our guest speaker, Raina Windham (00:02:07) The Windham and Burgess connection (00:04:54) Physicians, entrepreneurship, and patient care (00:07:55) The importance of listening to patients  (00:10:15) Offering support without overstepping boundaries (00:13:22) Ask questions (00:16:53) What makes Bravenly better than other supplements and drinks (00:18:45) Even healthy people need help (00:20:10) Why not earn by sharing (00:26:23) Be careful about what you recommend (00:29:22) Advertisement: Struggling with your finances as a young physician?

Have you ever had a “chance” encounter that felt too perfect?Someone who seemed to know exactly what to say—mirroring your values, validating your feelings, showing up just when you were vulnerable? What if that wasn't fate... but a psychological trap?In a world where social predators profile you like marketers, tailor their identity to reflect yours, and build trust only to exploit it—how do you protect yourself without becoming cold or cynical?In this jaw-dropping finale, Dr. David Snyder, world-renowned hypnosis expert and behavioral influence trainer, breaks down the Five-Phase Predator Protocol—the exact formula used by narcissists, sociopaths, Machiavellians, and manipulative cult leaders to infiltrate your psyche, destroy your boundaries, and gain emotional control. His experience in NLP, lie detection, influence psychology, and personal defense makes him one of the most qualified voices on this topic in the world today.If you've ever been blindsided by someone who “seemed perfect,” this episode is your shield.Listen now to take back your power before someone else rewrites your story for you.Quotes:"Every human being is moving through the world desperate to be heard, seen, approved of, validated and connected with." - Dr. David Snyder"Predators always look for the weak meat. They always look for the greatest return with the least amount of investment." - Dr. David Snyder"When your identity anchors are gone, when all the things that support your sense of who you are from your place in the world are gone, you are wide open." - Dr. David SnyderTakeaways:Create a Personal Vetting Protocol: Develop a systematic, unemotional process for checking out new people in your life.

We explore how mothers often carry the emotional weight of succession conversations, get stuck in the middle of unresolved conflict, and feel responsible for keeping the peace, even when it's burning them out. Kalynn shares insights from her coaching work and lived experience raising young kids on the farm, and we offer strategies for flattening communication triangles, setting healthy boundaries, and lightening the load.

July 20, 2025 Today's Reading: Luke 10:38-42Daily Lectionary: 1 Samuel 3:1-21; Acts 16:1-22“. . . Martha was distracted with much serving. And she went up to him and said, ‘Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me.' But the Lord answered her, ‘Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her.'” (Luke 10:40-42) In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. You have been anxious and troubled about many things, distracted with much serving (and so have I). But Jesus' concern isn't serving, it's distraction; distraction from the one thing that is needfull (necessary). Serving your neighbors (family, friends, classmates, coworkers, etc.) is a good and necessary aspect of your vocation as Christians. The Table of Duties in the Small Catechism gives examples of what this means. In this fallen world, there is always work to do for the good of others. There is nothing wrong (and everything right) with service to family, friends, community, and church. Martha's desire to serve, in and of itself, was not wrong – in fact, it was completely right. Martha was not wrong in her desire to serve, but in her troubled heart, trusting in her service to Jesus more than Him as her one thing needful. Her anxiety over loving and serving her neighbors (Jesus and others gathered) distracted her from the true purpose of Jesus' presence. She had not grasped that Jesus came for her. Jesus “…came not to be served, but to serve…” (Matthew 28:20). While the one thing needful was right there at hand, Martha felt that serving Him was more important than being served by Him. Mary chose what is better when one is in the presence of Christ: she sat at His feet and received what He came to give. Martha's complaint to Jesus was rebuked not because He didn't appreciate Martha's service, but because Martha erred in thinking that Mary was wrong in her desire to be served by Him before serving. Both Martha and Mary represent critical aspects of living out your Baptism, loving God and loving neighbor (see Luke 10:27). But take care that your much serving doesn't become more important than your being much served by Christ Himself. The former emanates from the law, which cannot save, but only curbs, accuses, and guides (necessary as that is). The latter is the Gospel itself, emanating from Christ our Savior, being necessary for salvation (John 6:27, Romans 5:21, Jude 1:21). It is the much-suffering of Christ (His crucifixion!) that saves you, and it will not be taken away! (See Small Catechism, Explanation to the 2nd Article, 2nd Paragraph)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.  O Lord, grant us the Spirit to hear Your Word and know the one thing needful that by Your Word and Spirit we may live according to Your will; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen. (Collect for the Sixth Sunday after Pentecost, LSB)Rev.

She talks about her new children's book, M is for Mason Jar: A Homesteading Alphabet , inspired by the principles of homesteading and the experiences of creating it. The conversation explores how families can incorporate homesteading practices into their lives, no matter their living situation, and discusses the broader messages of lifestyle reflection and education conveyed through her book.  Episode Highlights  00:00:10: Introduction to the podcast and guest Carolyn Bennett Fraiser, who is a homesteader and author.  00:01:12: Explanation of modern-day homesteading and its distinction from pioneer homesteading.  00:02:09: Carolyn shares her personal journey into homesteading, initially sparked by health issues.  00:03:35: The inception of Carolyn's children's book during the COVID pandemic as a challenge from her husband.  00:05:14: Discussion of the various applications of homesteading and the importance of self sustainability for families.  00:08:44: Carolyn emphasizes that homesteading is a family activity involving every member. 00:09:27: The book aims to introduce children to homesteading concepts and serve as a resource for families.  00:12:19: Carolyn hopes the book inspires conversations within families about homesteading practices.  00:12:51: Information on where to find Carolyn's book and online presence.  Key Takeaways  Homesteading is adaptable and can be practiced in various environments, emphasizing self sustainability and healthy living.  Engagement and encouragement from family members can play a pivotal role in pursuing creative endeavors.  Homesteading can serve as an educational tool for children, introducing them to concepts of self-sufficiency and environmental care.  The book provides both a reflection for homesteading families and an educational window for those unfamiliar with the lifestyle.  Tweetable Quotes  "Modern day homesteading is more of a movement, a state of mind where we focus on living off the land and using our resources properly."  "Wherever you are, you can make it work on some level. It's just a matter of stepping in and trying it out." "Homesteading really is kind of like a family activity. You just can't have one person in a house who's into homesteading and it doesn't involve everybody else."

In this special Market Mondays clip, the hosts dive deep into why Uber might just be the sleeper stock of the decade. Troy Millings breaks down his bullish long-term view on Uber, especially as the company stands to benefit from the coming wave of autonomous vehicles. With competitors like Waymo pushing into new markets and the constant talk around Tesla and robo-taxis, is Uber's powerful platform and trusted brand its ultimate edge?The conversation unpacks how autonomous vehicle partnerships could revolutionize Uber, especially as driver costs are the biggest expense for the company. Food delivery isn't left out—imagine a world where your meals arrive without a driver, putting even more revenue right into Uber's pocket.Ian Dunlap and Rashad Bilal join in to discuss Uber's recent stock performance, its impressive turnaround from the low $20s in 2022, and why the company isn't even at $100 per share yet. They touch on Uber's competition with Lyft, the fallout from the old Uber vs. Google/Waymo lawsuit, and why Uber remains the household name despite the ride-sharing wars.If you're curious about investing strategies, Troy also breaks down *leap options*: what they are, why he prefers to go out as far as possible (sometimes 2–3 years ahead), and how deep-in-the-money strikes can maximize gains while minimizing risk. He throws in a reference to how prominent figures like Nancy Pelosi use similar long-term option strategies for major blue-chip stocks, and explains his personal approach to playing Uber for the long game.Whether you're an investor in the tech space, a fan of finance news, or you just want the inside scoop on where ride-sharing and delivery is heading, this clip packs actionable insight you won't want to miss.*Topics covered:* Uber's potential in autonomous vehicles The competition (Waymo, Lyft, Tesla's robo-taxi ambitions) The importance of trust and platform dominance in ride-sharing How autonomous food delivery could boost Uber's revenue Explanation of leap options and “deep-in-the-money” strategies Real-world examples from high-profile investors The reason Uber's stock price could soon reflect its full potentialStay tuned for more Market Mondays as we bring you fresh takes, real numbers, and strategies from the streets to the boardroom.*Don't forget to like, subscribe, and comment with your thoughts or questions below!* #Uber #MarketMondays #Stocks #Investing #AutonomousVehicles #OptionsTrading #LeapOptions #Finance #Rideshare #TechStocks #Waymo #Tesla #FinancialEducation #StockMarket #LongTermInvestingOur Sponsors:* Check out PNC Bank: https://www.pnc.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
