In this episode of What Are You Made Of?, Mike “C-Roc” sits down with former college basketball player, coach, broadcaster, and novelist Peter Young for a powerful conversation on the lifelong lessons learned through the game of basketball. From growing up as a self-described gym rat in New Jersey to playing Division I ball at George Washington University, Peter shares how discipline, faith, and mental toughness shaped his journey on and off the court. He reflects on his path through coaching, sports broadcasting with networks like OLN and ESPN, and how choosing family and lifestyle over career glamour influenced his professional direction. The conversation dives deep into the “six inches between your ears,” exploring the mental and spiritual side of performance, pressure, and identity—both in sports and in life. Peter also opens up about his writing, including his faith-based basketball novels and memoir, and how he uses storytelling and sports as metaphors to inspire confidence, resilience, and purpose.

In this powerful interview episode of Youth Worker On Fire, Doug Edwards sits down with Tamar, an Israeli wife, mother, and tour guide, to hear what life has been like for families since October 7, 2023. Tamar shares her personal story of waking up to sirens on a Jewish holiday, watching her husband be called into military reserve duty, navigating motherhood, fear, and faith during a season of national trauma and uncertainty. Recorded in Jerusalem during the Ambassadors Summit, this conversation offers a rare and deeply human look at: • What October 7th was like for everyday families • How Orthodox Jewish communities responded in the first hours and days • What it feels like to watch your spouse leave for war not knowing when they'll return • How community support, prayer, and practical care sustained families • How Israelis from different faith backgrounds live and work together • What military and national service looks like for young adults in Israel • How war has changed daily life, travel, and long-term plans • Why seeing foreigners come to Israel to show support has brought real hope Tamar also explains the role of community, faith, and movement in surviving emotionally difficult seasons—and why, even after everything, Israelis are determined to keep living, building families, and believing in the future. This episode is especially valuable for: • Youth pastors and youth ministry volunteers • Christian educators and student leaders • Parents helping students process fear, uncertainty, and world events • Anyone wanting a real, human perspective on life in Israel today This is not a political episode. It is a family story, a faith story, and a testimony of resilience, community, and hope in the middle of hardship. ✨ Sometimes the most important lessons we teach students don't come from a sermon—but from listening to someone's story. _________________________________________________________________________________

What truly matters most in your life? What pushes you to work harder, and how far are you willing to go to protect those things? In this episode, we're talking about the real cost of not having boundaries and why protecting your peace is just as important as growing your business. I share a personal experience of what happens when work and personal life blur together, including the moment a customer showed up at my house on Christmas Eve. That moment forced me to take a hard look at how I was running my business and the boundaries I failed to set. If you're an entrepreneur who feels constantly available, this episode will help you rethink boundaries as a form of protection, not limitation. Because success isn't just about how hard you work, it's about creating clear separation so your business supports your life, not consumes it.

In this powerful compilation of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman brings together two deeply moving conversations centered on conviction, responsibility, and choosing to stand for what matters most. First, Ben sits down with Caleb Altmeyer, Founder and CEO of Helping Captives. Caleb shares how his faith-driven mission led him to transform a former strip club into a rescue and restoration facility—turning a place of exploitation into a sanctuary of hope. With over a decade in ministry and nonprofit leadership, Caleb speaks candidly about protecting women and children, the critical role parents play by being present in their kids' lives, and why awareness, connection, and courage can literally save lives.Then, Ben is joined by entrepreneur and philanthropist John Chiorando, who defines success by a single word: Dad. John opens up about the heartbreak of losing his daughter Nina and the vow that now drives his life—to fund a cure so no other family has to endure the same pain. From building companies rooted in integrity to creating the “Be the Good Day” standard across his organizations, John shares what it means to lead with faith, keep your word no matter the cost, and prioritize family above all else. Together, these conversations deliver a clear message: leadership isn't about titles or success—it's about showing up, protecting what matters, and choosing to be the good when life makes it hardest._______________________Watch Here: https://youtu.be/zJWhCAKdXBAListen Here: https://www.theburnpodcast.com_______________________Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben's latest book The STANDARD: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************ Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a message Order my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewman Connect with me everywhere else: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfight Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFight Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693

Welcome to our first episode of Season 8 of Cork Talk! This episode features Scott and Elizabeth Barone from Castello Barone Vineyards in Ronda, NC! Located in the heart of the Swan Creek AVA, Castello Barone Vineyards is a boutique vineyard and winery that is grounded in Old World wine traditions, service to others, and a deep respect for craftsmanship. Their winemaking journey started as home brewers and home winemakers in Florida. Eventually the hobby became a passion and Scott and Elizabeth were looking for a way to make this into a larger project. They decided to settled in the Swan Creek AVA due to the higher concentration of vineyards in the area as well as on the traditional and homey feel that the region conveys. When you listen their story, you’ll find that the core beliefs of Faith, Family, and Service run throughout everything they do at Castello Barone. Wine Class with the Wine Mouths is back again!

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has dominated headlines this week with a raw Instagram series calling for a safer, more honest music industry, reflecting on his child stardom scars from The National Desk and CBS Austin reports. The 31-year-old pop icon detailed feeling used and unprotected as a teen sensation, crediting Jesus for healing his anger and restoring his identity as a son, not a product, per Relevant Magazine on December 29. He insists hes not bitter or seeking revenge, but redemption, urging transformation over destruction without burning it all down. This poignant pivot, timed ahead of Christmas, underscores his biographical shift to faith-guided maturity amid family life with wife Hailey and 15-month-old son Jack Blues.Harpers Bazaar captured their cozy holiday vibes, with Justin posting family snaps of movie nights by the fire, twinkling trees, and Jack in festive Santa gear toddling onto a private jet, matching Haileys checkered pajamas. Echoing a rare December 18 West Hollywood date night at a Christmas tree installation, per E News via Spreaker, the Biebers savored low-key parenting joys.No fresh public appearances or social media mentions surface in the past few days, though his 2025 surprise albums Swag and Swag II, dropping over 40 R&B tracks like Yukon and Devotion, still buzz as career highs, The Honey POP notes. Hes confirmed for Coachella 2026 headlining but wary of grueling tours separating him from family, favoring spot dates after a Halloween Twitch confession. Older drama lingers unconfirmed, like April rumors of ditching Drew House for SKYLRK, but nothing verified recently.

What is the real value of Christmas beyond gifts and traditions?In this special Christmas Day episode of the MX3 Podcast, we dive into the deeper meaning of Christmas — faith, family, generosity, and intentional living. We discuss the origins of Christmas, the powerful lessons behind it, the “three-gift rule,” and how modern culture can reconnect with purpose instead of excess.Whether you celebrate Christmas through faith, family, or tradition, this episode challenges you to think differently about what truly matters — not just during the holidays, but all year long.
In this special Christmas-season conversation, Cissie Graham Lynch joins the podcast to discuss how families can balance faith, parenting, and tradition in an increasingly challenging culture. Reflecting on the legacy of her grandfather, Billy Graham, Cissie shares powerful insights on preparing children to face opposition while remaining grounded in Christian values.

John Anderson speaks with Ted Baehr, founder of Christian film review site Movieguide, to examine what contemporary film choices reveal about the moral instincts of society. Drawing on decades of data, Baehr challenges the prevailing narratives around the relationship between a film's content and its success. He argues that popular entertainment is quietly moving in a different direction from elite commentary, with films centred on family, moral clarity, and hope consistently outperforming darker and more transgressive content.This conversation traces the historical rhythms of Hollywood, from early moral storytelling to periods of decline and renewal. This is a grounded conversation that reorients the cultural debate around what audiences reward rather than what critics promote. Dr. Ted Baehr is Founder and Publisher of Movieguide: The Family Guide to Movies and Entertainment and Chairman of the Christian Film & Television Commission ministry, as well as a noted critic, educator, lecturer, and media pundit. His life's purpose is to be used of God to redeem the values of the media while educating audiences on how to use discernment in selecting their entertainment.
