(3:12) Listeners out there (3:14) Warrior legacy ranch is a multi (3:18) Multi-program facility design (3:21) The long-term goal is to build a facility to do platoon (3:25) Reunions so that veterans can come in for a week and stay and reconnect with people that they served with (3:30) But for a local impact for the Gulf Coast we had the Gulf Coast veterans Community Resource Center (3:37) Which is a lot of different programs, I think it was recently categorized as a mental health facility (3:43) But it's not a mental health facility.It's a place where veterans can go to (3:48) connect with other veterans (3:52) With mental health in mind (3:55) But not there there are no professional (3:59) Psychiatrists and psychologists in fact I would refer you to that's recovering mobile (4:06) Yeah, and by the way to the the groundbreaking has started out on the facility (4:12) But this will be like you said part of what's going on will bring you know (4:16) veterans in from all over the country to beat up, but this is going to be like (4:21) Just a hub. I mean what yeah, I don't want to use the wrong word here, but to me Patrick (4:25) It seems like a hub for for all the veterans in our area to be able to come out to the resource facility (4:32) Yeah, it is exactly that the hub is a great word for it (4:36) I always think back like my vision of it when it when we were first starting to kind of plan (4:42) This was like those old-school (4:46) Gen Xers and myself will probably remember like when cities had community centers, and they did events there for families and (4:56) For men for women for for families all together (5:00) That that's kind of where it is where where people could go in and reserve the facility and use it to carry out you know (5:06) Organizations can can reserve it and carry out that that's kind of missing from now (5:12) from our area so (5:14) I mean I grew up in the north so we had that but (5:19) That that's what I envisioned this this hub for (5:22) You know different military organizations different veterans organizations to come in use the the 20-acre property and (5:29) Do something with other veterans and then we'll fill that time on our own with our programs in the empty spaces (5:37) In military order the Purple Heart needs a meeting facility or wants to do something outside (5:42) Hey sign up reserve the space for the weekend, and it's yours (5:46) It's really cool (5:47) And these are gonna be big demand if y'all heard me talk about in the past the stats here the number of veterans (5:53) Right here in our corner of the world (5:56) there's a lot and (5:57) To have a facility like this long time coming so good good on you, man (6:03) So yeah, you talked about the stats (6:05) I don't have mobiles, but but I have Baldwin County's stat and it is (6:09) 11.2% of the population or 26,000 better than Baldwin County (6:16) And we don't even we don't even have a VA you got to go to Mobile or Pensacola for that (6:20) So we're trying to fill that gap in our community that's missing (6:25) For those 26,000 veterans, I think all of us could sit on the property right now (6:34) It'd be a little tight, but yeah, you know what's good too if you're listening (6:39) The veterans obviously y'all listen to what Patrick's talking about you may be familiar with what's going on there (6:44) But folks that aren't make sure your friends and family that are veterans know about this, right? (6:50) That's what the keys to I've got that many people (6:52) Because that number is actually bigger for Mobile County and then you bring in Southeast, Mississippi and Northwest, Florida and that number (6:59) I think we figured it one day was near (7:01) 80,000 (7:02) You put that through you got to make sure those folks know, you know, this facilities here moving forward (7:08) That's a key too. So y'all are all gonna be profits for us and spread the word.That's that's what I'm it's a job (7:14) I'm giving you on this Tuesday (7:15) So we got to make sure people know what's going on talk about tonight, too (7:19) Could be raising money and this is a if somebody can't make it out tonight (7:23) Which is the most fun most fun the way?

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Gregory Monday from Fairhope, Alabama. Thank you for your generosity and partnership in Project 23. This one's for you today. Our text today is Mark 16:9-11: “Now when he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons. She went and told those who had been with him, while they were mourning and weeping. But when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they would not believe it.” — Mark 16:9-11 Dawn still held a chill when Mary Magdalene trudged to the tomb. Her tears tainted the ground. Then the impossible—he speaks her name. Her sorrow shatters into wonder as she sees the risen Savior. She runs back to the others, heart pounding, voice trembling. But grief has anchored them so profoundly that her good news rings hollow. God often reveals his grace to those the world dismisses first. In sovereign mercy, he chose Mary—once demon-possessed—to be the first witness of resurrection. This reminds us that grace isn't earned by status or perfection but poured out on the humble. Grace uproots despair. Grace transforms mourners into messengers. When our testimony is ignored or scoffed at, it echoes Mary's experience. But God still speaks—first to the lowly, then through the bold. Your story matters, even if others doubt. In your home, workplace, or small group, share what Christ has done for you. Obedience isn't waiting for perfect reception; it's faith in motion despite rejection. So push through your concerns about rejection, because your story matters. It's the truth that shouts about his life. ASK THIS: Have you ever felt dismissed when sharing your faith? How does Jesus' choice of Mary Magdalene encourage you in your weakness? What keeps you from proclaiming the Gospel when people don't listen? How might God be calling you to step out in witness today, even if you expect pushback? DO THIS: Write down one way Jesus has transformed you, then share that brief testimony with a friend or family member by the end of today. PRAY THIS: Lord, give me boldness to speak your resurrection power, even when others doubt my words. Transform my weakness into a witness that points to your unstoppable grace. PLAY THIS: "Testimony."

What does it take to rise from cleaning studios to shaping some of the most iconic records of our time? Trina Shoemaker's story is not just about breaking into the music industry—it's about breaking through it. As the first woman to win a Grammy for Best Engineered Album, Trina paved the way for a generation of female producers and engineers, and she brings her powerful voice and razor-sharp insight to this inspiring and unfiltered conversation. In this episode, Trina shares how she went from mopping floors at Capitol Records to earning Grammy wins for her work with artists like Sheryl Crow and Emmylou Harris. She tells the behind-the-scenes stories of working on Wrecking Ball and how that album helped define the sound of Americana. We explore her years in London learning the art of engineering, her move to New Orleans to join the legendary Kingsway Studio, and the deep musical and personal lessons she learned along the way. Trina also pulls back the curtain on the realities of being a woman in a male-dominated field—how she navigated the industry, demanded respect, and held true to her belief in capturing raw, honest performances. She discusses her approach to vocal production, why she avoids auto-tune, and how crafting backing vocals is one of her secret weapons. Beyond her life in the studio, Trina opens up about her love of writing and her dream of publishing a novel and having actor Will Patton narrate the audiobook. Whether you're a seasoned engineer or just starting out, this episode offers a powerful reminder: authenticity, persistence, and a deep respect for the artist's process will always rise above the noise. Get access to FREE mixing mini-course: https://MixMasterBundle.com My guest today is Trina Shoemaker, who was born in 1965 and raised in Joliet, IL, southwest of Chicago. Over the past three-and-a-half decades, she has produced, recorded and mixed hundreds of records. A four-time Grammy® Award winner and six-time nominee, she is the first woman to win the Grammy® for Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical. Her credits run the gamut from Queens Of The Stone Age, Rodney Crowell, Charley Crockett and Iggy Pop to Sheryl Crow, Brandi Carlile and Tanya Tucker. Although audio engineering is a passion, writing songs and playing musical instruments are not. Instead, while her ears are busy in the studio recording music, her imagination is busy creating characters, narratives, plotlines and dialogues as she travels through the hidden workings of songs. These stories have culminated in the creation of her debut novel, Bury Me Alive In Your Sugar. Trina lives on Mobile Bay in Fairhope, Alabama, with her husband, singer-songwriter Grayson Capps.

If you can believe it, today, we are wrapping up season 8!   Next week, you will hear a wrap-up episode from our hosts, Robyn, Katie, and Lindy, as they discuss all that God did throughout this past year and what is in store for Season 9, which will begin on September 3rd.   Today, We have a repost from Lisa Fischer, who originally shared her story on September 11, 2024 (episode 285).   Are you curious about your faith? Lisa, who shared at our Fairhope, Alabama community, will encourage you to ask all the questions. Listen as she shares a hard but happy retelling of finding the Lord—in none other than a college biology class.   This story of curiosity and conversion starts with Lisa's Jewish beginnings, and includes a childhood touched by tremendous trauma: alcoholism, addiction, divorce, and loss.   In her dysfunctional family and dysfunctional life, Lisa longed to be known. Yet when she met Jesus, she discovered her name was written in the Lamb's Book of Life, and being known by Him was all she needed.   In this episode, you will learn: - God is always pursuing you and longs for you to have a relationship with Him. - You are intimately known by God. (Psalm 139) - As a child of God, your sin is on the cross and behind you, and there is nothing you can do to separate yourself from the love of Christ!   Links: Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Lisa and our past storytellers!!   Become a Patreon Insider to access bonus content.   Register for our Finding God in the Details: A Guide to Discerning His Voice and Discovering Your Story workshop being offered in-person on September 10th, 9:30 AM -12:00 PM CS.T Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series.   Check out all of our live speaking engagement opportunities on our website.   Sign up to receive StoryTellers Live's weekly newsletter for updates and details on our live gatherings.

When you deal with a chronic illness, it's easy to question God and wonder if He even sees you. Everyone around goes on with their lives while you are left struggling with how to live each day.   This is exactly what today's storyteller, Sheryl Trawick, from our Fairhope, Alabama community, experienced after being diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome, an autoimmune disorder where her body was attacking her peripheral nervous system (the control center of her body's communication system).    However, instead of staying stuck in her thoughts of despair, Sheryl decided to pour herself into God - seeking healing verses of Scripture to speak over her body. Through a whisper from the Lord, her faith began to shift, and a miracle of healing began to happen. This a story that is going to remind you of the power found in God's Word!    IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: - Scripture can serve as medicine for the soul as well as the body.  - Peace is only found through the presence of God.  - God is still in the business of performing miracles.   Links:   Sheryl's Bible verses    Listen to a similar story: Ep. 313- Emily Holman: “Filling My Lamp with Oil”   Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Sheryl and our past storytellers.   Become a Patreon Insider to access bonus content~ including a bonus story from Emily Moore from our Vestavia community!   Register for our Finding God in the Details: A Guide to Discerning His Voice and Discovering Your Story workshop being offered in-person on June 18th, 6:00-8:30 PM CST   *Future dates- Online on July 8th; 9:30-11:30 AM CST and August 20th; 9:15-11:15 AM CST Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series   Check out all of our live speaking engagement opportunities on our website.   Sign up to receive StoryTellers Live's weekly newsletter for updates and details on our live gatherings.

This message was given as an impromptu sermon on May 18, 2025 at Mt Olivet Country Church of Fairhope, PA. I had planned to preach from a different text but changed when I sensed a call to preach on a different subject just minutes before stepping up to the pulpit. Text: Matt 25:31-26

So stay tuned, buckle up, and get ready…this is Ronnie Floyd, and welcome to the 48th episode of our podcast.In just a moment, I will discuss a subject I have never addressed and share some information with you that you may not have heard or read about before. I promise you that today's podcast will be one of the most helpful podcasts I have done with you. Just a quick note from our past week: Jeana and I spent three days in Orlando, Florida, for an annual conference we attend called The Mega-Metro Conference for Pastors and Wives. I have now participated in this conference for thirty-seven consecutive years. We prioritize it because God always blesses and encourages us when we gather for this event. We provided leadership for this conference in three different years during my Cross Church tenure. We are thankful to Pastor Chris Bell and his wife, Nan, who served this year by leading and designing the program for these various gatherings at the conference. Pastor Chris Bell is the Lead Pastor of the multi-campus 3 CIRCLE CHURCH based in Fairhope, Alabama. Now, let's get right into my podcast for this week. While conversations about the various generations occur daily, they are usually about the younger generations, such as Generation Alpha, Born 2013-2025; Generation Z, Born 1997-2012; and, of course, the Millenials, born 1981-1996. While we must always be aware and committed to the next generations, we can never forget the others. For example, where would we be today without Generation X, Born 1965-1980 and now in their forties to late fifties? Then, we have the Baby Boomers Generation, Born 1946-1964, now in their sixties to eighties. Furthermore, what about the Silent Generation, Born in 1928-1945, now in their eighties and nineties? Finally, we cannot forget The Centenarians, people born in 1925 or earlier, and some 100,000+ of these people live in the United States.

“He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.” Psalm‬ ‭40‬:‭2‬   Life is full of “pits” - some self-imposed, some at the hands of others, and some at the expense of living in a fallen world.  But, be encouraged! Today's storyteller is going to remind you of God's deepest desire - to take you out of that “pit” and set your feet on solid, secure, and safe ground.   Sarah Robinson, from our Fairhope, Alabama community, paints a vivid picture of her life story as she shares her (and her family's) struggles with alcoholism and loss. The journey she takes you on will assure you of the pursuing love of your Heavenly Father who specializes in the grace-filled gifts of redemption and restoration.   IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: - God is constantly speaking to you through people, events, and life circumstances. - Hope has two sisters - anger and courage… anger in the way things are and courage that they       don't have to stay that way. - Pursue godly things, and you will leave a legacy!

“Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written.” John 21:25   When life doesn't go as planned, do you get paralyzed by your circumstances, or do you focus on God and His past faithfulness? Today's storyteller, Meghan Brown, from our Fairhope, Alabama community, will encourage you to see the love of God in the midst of life's twists and turns.   Through detours, disappointments, and a devastating loss, Meghan shares her story of learning the importance of looking intently for God's goodness, especially when life's challenges leave you asking why.   IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:   - In challenging moments, focus on the characteristics of God. - There is a difference in believing what is true and resting in what is true… believe God's plan is good because He is good. - Good things, hard things, and holy things can occupy the same space.    Links:   Hinds Feet on High Places by Hannah Hurnard   “Goodness of God” by Cece Winans     Listen to a similar story: Leslie Presson- Ep. 223: “Hope Blooms”   Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Meghan and past storytellers.   Become a Patreon Insider to access bonus content~ including a bonus story from Lacy Isbell of our Trussville, Alabama community!   Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series, including the newly released Discovering God in Stories of Faith!   Register for the local workshop being offered on April 9th in Birmingham: Finding God in the Details: A Guide to Discerning His Voice and Discovering Your Story   Our 4th Annual Stories of Hope Luncheon is on March 12th!
