“Navigating Tight Margins with Financial Mastery” dives straight into the realities of today's ag economy. Grant Wiese joins the Farm4Profit crew to unpack how producers can manage risk, make data-backed marketing decisions, and plan for the future—even when margins are razor thin.Listeners will hear how knowing your true cost of production can transform decision-making. Many farmers can quote a yield goal, but few know their exact breakeven per acre. Grant explains why that's dangerous, especially when a small swing in grain price—say, $4.25 vs. $4.75 corn—can make or break profitability.We explore:What separates top-performing farms from the rest: discipline, review frequency, and financial clarity.The tools and tactics that make cost tracking doable, not daunting—like Farm 640's break-even calculators, enterprise analysis, and scenario planning tools.How to decide whether an input (like fungicide) is worth it—or if it's better to pocket the margin.Strategies for 2026 planning, especially for those facing lender pressure or uncertain financing.Grant also addresses one of the most overlooked challenges in ag finances: family living costs. Are they still silently eating into farm cash flow? And how can farmers balance growth and survival when every acre and dollar count?
In this week's message, Dale reminded us that family life is one of the clearest ways we display Christ to the world. Through raising children with love, discipline, and faith, parents model the heart of God who calls His people to walk in His ways. When we center our homes on Christ, our families become a living testimony of His grace and truth.Message: Faithful Family LivingSeries: FLOURISHSpeaker: Dale McCamish (Senior Minister)Date: 9-28-2025Find out how you can connect or partner with us: wcconline.org/connectFollow us on social media: @wcconlinechurch
The CDC announced last week that the US General Fertility Rate has recently hit an all-time low of only 1.6 children per woman of childbearing age. That makes me sad, because I know how much joy children bring to life. The more, the merrier! In fact, as parents of twelve, my husband and I have reaped a lot of blessings from having a large family we could have never anticipated beforehand -- and so have our kids.

Men...there is such a thing as being TOO family oriented.While this is NOT an excuse to keep being a workaholic, this is for the men who can't set boundaries and don't actually work enough or provide enough.It seems like the most socially acceptable "nice guy" thing to do...not work as much because you're just being a "good family man".But guys, men are built to work. Your family is relying on you to provide.It's actually an excuse for a lot of guys NOT to do the hard work required to build the business of their family's dreams.Let's break down this lie together, I'll give you some quick changes to make, and I'll give you some mantras to destroy this lie.In this episode:0:00 Intro2:14 The Spiralling Thoughts of Entrepreneurial Family Men4:22 The Root Cause Lie: Provision = Presence, Service = Sacrifice5:28 New Behaviors12:12 Mantras---⏯️ Learn How to Achieve Freedom From Fitness on My YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/vincedelmonte

Working a pair of scissors or a watercolor brush. Sitting in a chair for a longer period of time. All these things prepare them to go to sunbeams. 34:20 Marla talks about how she created her binder for nursery. She brainstorms activities to teach each topic and get the materials and pictures. 36:30 It's best to have under 10 kids in the nursery. It's good to split nurseries that are bigger than this. 38:50 The art project is a time to wind down from nursery. It's a great time to learn skills.

For his whole life he will be given over to the LORD (1 Samuel. 1:27-28a NIV). Throughout life we all pass from one stage into another, such as graduating from a school, being joined in marriage, or advancing in a profession. Each stage brings new experiences, additional responsibilities, and a renewed sense of purpose. This devotion looks at parenthood and grandparenthood.

"But Jesus called them to him, saying, Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.'" - Luke 18:16Do you ever feel weary, rundown, and quite frankly just not good enough? The vocation of of motherhood is one of the most difficult and yet beautiful and profound things we will ever do. Yet, sometimes we just don't think we have what it takes. But what if the truth of the matter is that God never asked us to be good enough, but rather simply to have a good will after his own heart? What if our trust is greater and more important than our actions?This week, I chat with the lovely Mike and Alicia Hernon of The Messy Family Project about big family living and the vocation of parenthood. As parents of 10, and grandparents too, Mike and Alicia have a passion for encouraging parents to most beautifully live out this vocation God called them to.

Melissa and Lindi (with a combined 12 kids between them!) talk tips and tricks for large families.
A Portland family says they're living in fear after someone tried to break into their home.It happened Thursday night, and Friday afternoon 18-year-old Joseph Ibrahim faced a judge, charged in connection to the crime.The family wishes to remain anonymous for their safety but wants people to hear their story that began while they were having dinner Thursday night.“Suddenly,” the father of the family explained, “we heard an explosion of broken glass. We didn't know what it was.”The father of the family of five, who we're calling John to keep his identity safe, says he was eating dinner with his two sons, who are 12 and 14. Meanwhile, the mother, who we're calling Jane for the same reasons, was upstairs.SEE ALSO: Portland mother finds suspected fentanyl in front yard, feet away from children's toys“My youngest son was screaming,” she said. “I didn't know what was going on.”John ran to the door and said he confronted the suspect, who can be seen in Ring Camera footage reaching through the door to try and get inside.“I ran at him and tried to push him and his arm out the window,” he recalled.John was hit with what he later found out was a piece of his own fencing. Police say Ibrahim had taken it apart while making his way up to their porch. John armed himself with the closest thing he could find, a cat scratching post, before his 12-year-old brought him a baseball bat.“He was looking at both of us,” John said. “Actively trying to get into the house to get to us. I don't know what he had in mind.”“I didn't know whether he had a gun, or a knife, or what was happening,” Jane said. “So, I grabbed my children.”She said that's when she hid them in the bathroom, arming her two kids with knives, before getting ahold of police.“It was a while,” she said. “It was a while. It took them a while to come.”When the police arrived, they found Ibrahim sitting on the porch. John says the 18-year-old never said a word throughout the confrontation, but court documents detail that a police officer reported him giggling to himself on the way to jail, all while talking about how scared the family was.Support the showSign Up For Exclusive Episodes At: https://reasonabletv.com/LIKE & SUBSCRIBE for new videos every day. https://www.youtube.com/c/NewsForReasonablePeople

Carmen and Sergio are shamans in Peru, guiding seekers through a spiritual journey through ayahuasca ceremonies. They are also parents to three teenage children. The new documentary, The Sacred Family, follows Carmen, Sergio, and their children on a thousand mile road trip into the Amazon to find balance in their lives. Against the backdrop of honoring the sacredness to be found in life, the family also experiences the all-too-familiar encroachment of the addictions of modern life in terms of technology - smartphones, video games, and Netflix. This film highlights the stark dichotomy of the modern world and ancient wisdom and spirituality. It was a joy to connect with Carmen and the film's creator, Borja, during the debut of The Sacred Family at a Scottish film festival. We talk about the tension between family life and spiritual growth, the dangers of the exploding demand for ayahuasca for the influx of Westerners flooding to Peru, and so much more! https://www.lasagradafamilia.film

Momma Row and I have been talking about doing a Podcast together ever since I started this dang podcast and here we are! Momma Row + Mitch Delfino join the podcast to talk all about having a family while playing professional baseball.Really interesting dynamic here since my mother, Carol, raised a family while my dad, Rich, played in the late 80's throughout the 90's where there was hardly any of the technology that we have access to today. You'll hear some dope stories from my Mom in this episode regarding how she was acting agent for my dad during the draft process and how she persuaded pops into playing baseball at the college level. Super fun episode to record and hope to do more in the near future!
