Edifying, Enriching & Transforming Lives with Pastor Paul Morgan
Favor leaves evidence, even in seasons that feel unfair.Looking at divine favor through the life of Joseph shows how God promotes, protects, and positions people in ways they never plan for. From rejection to responsibility, Joseph's story reveals how faithfulness in hidden places leads to visible outcomes.There are clear parallels between Joseph and Jesus, reminding us that being favored does not mean being spared from hardship. It means God is still working, people are watching, and your obedience can bless more than just you.
In this masterclass episode, Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS delivers an in-depth exploration of web sales optimization (CRO - conversation rate optimization) through strategic search engine marketing (SEM). The episode focuses on the critical relationship between website speed and conversion rates, revealing how technical optimization directly impacts sales performance. Favour emphasizes that web sales are fundamentally a result of web speed, explaining that websites loading slower than 3 seconds can decrease conversion rates by at least 7%, with compounding effects reaching 20% for sites taking 10 seconds to load.The discussion covers comprehensive website optimization strategies, including image optimization (recommending WebP format over JPEG/PNG), structured data implementation with schema markup, and the importance of optimizing every website element from headers and footers to file names and internal linking structures. Favour introduces the concept of treating URLs like seeds that need time to grow, recommending a 2-3 month planning horizon for content strategy.The masterclass also explores collection pages, category optimization, and the strategic use of content hubs to create pathways for user navigation. Favour shares practical tools and resources for keyword research and competitive analysis, while emphasizing the importance of submitting websites to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools for maximum visibility. The episode concludes with actionable advice on implementing these strategies either independently or through professional SEO consultation.Book SEO Services | Quick Links for Social Business>> Book SEO Services with Favour Obasi-ike>> Visit Work and PLAY Entertainment website to learn about our digital marketing services>> Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community>> Read SEO Articles>> Subscribe to the We Don't PLAY Podcast>> Purchase Flaev Beatz Beats Online>> Favour Obasi-ike Quick Links
We sadly said goodbye to our beloved Lovie this month, a gentle soul who loved Jesus and cherished the Veranda. Today, we come together to celebrate and honor the beautiful person Lovie was to each of us. Veranda Ministries is currently navigating the complex process of obtaining legislation and permissions to serve more families in need. It's important to note that the Veranda is not an adult day care facility, but a respite care ministry—created specifically to give care partners a much-needed break while their loved ones are cared for with dignity, compassion, and Christ-centered love. This season requires patience, wisdom, and favor as doors are opened and guidelines are navigated. We ask for prayer—that God would grant clarity, provision, and supernatural favor with every decision-maker, and that He would continue to establish the Veranda as a place of rest, renewal, and hope for caregivers and families alike. www.theverandaministries.org Send your comments and emails to: mailto:mao1024@gmail.com

Delays can feel discouraging. When prayers seem unanswered and doors remain closed, it's easy to wonder if God has forgotten us. But what if the delay isn't denial? What if it's divine positioning?In this powerful sermon, Favor in the Delay, we explore how God often works behind the scenes during seasons of waiting. What feels like a setback may actually be preparation. What feels like silence may be strategy. Throughout Scripture, we see that God's timing is intentional—and His delays are never wasted.This episode will encourage you to trust God's process, embrace the waiting season, and recognize that favor isn't just found in the breakthrough—it's present in the delay. If you're in a season of “not yet,” this message will remind you that God is still moving, still preparing, and still faithful.Your delay is not your defeat. It may just be the doorway to greater favor.
The SAVE Act is being marketed as common-sense election security. But here's the key question: what problem is this bill actually solving? Federal law already prohibits noncitizens from voting in national elections. Voter registration forms require applicants to attest—under penalty of perjury—that they are U.S. citizens. Multiple audits and investigations, including those conducted by Republican-led states, have consistently found noncitizen voting to be exceedingly rare. #SAVEAct #VotingRights #ElectionLaw #DemocracyIndependent media has never been more important.

Discover workflows for turning subscribers into buyers through strategic segmentation, behavioral targeting, and quality-over-quantity content delivery.Episode Key Takeaways1. Email Marketing ROI Dominates Social Media – For every $1 spent on email marketing, businesses earn $36-$40 back, far exceeding social media returns.2. Segmentation Drives Conversions – Segment email lists by link clicks, engagement levels, and business vs. personal contacts to send targeted content that resonates.3. Technical Setup Matters – Proper DNS configuration, Google Search Console integration, and backlink strategies improve deliverability and SEO performance.4. Quality Over Quantity – Sending fewer, high-value emails with 15-minute read times generates more revenue than frequent, low-engagement blasts.5. Behavioral Targeting Wins – Track website behavior and email interactions to create personalized follow-up sequences that match subscriber intent.Episode Timestamps[00:00] Introduction: Monetizing and segmenting email lists[02:00] Why email outperforms social media ($36 ROI per $1)[05:00] Building business email lists as valuable assets[10:00] DNS, deliverability, and technical foundations[15:00] Segmentation strategies using link tracking[24:00] Creating consistency through targeted workflows[27:00] Backlinks and SEO benefits from email campaigns[32:00] Calculating engagement: 50 touchpoints = $36 product[45:00] Flowdesk features and automation workflows[68:00] Frequency matters: Quality beats quantity[71:00] Behavioral targeting and site tracking integrationPodcast Episode FAQsQ: What email marketing platform does Favour recommend?A: Favour specifically discusses Flowdesk for its segmentation capabilities, checkout features, and workflow automation that allow precise targeting based on subscriber behavior.Q: How often should I send emails to my list?A: Quality beats quantity. Favour sent only one email in February but generated revenue, leads, and referrals. Ask your audience through polls how often they want to hear from you.Q: What's the difference between business and personal email contacts?A: Business emails (domains like @company.com) engage differently and should be segmented separately. They're checked 3-5 times daily and represent higher-value prospects.Q: How do I improve email deliverability?A: Configure DNS records properly (A, TXT, CNAME), connect to Google Search Console, build backlinks through anchor text in emails, and maintain engagement with quality content.Q: What is behavioral targeting in email marketing?A: Tracking which links subscribers click, what pages they visit on your website, and how they engage with content to send personalized follow-up sequences that match their interests.Memorable Quotes by Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS"For every dollar that you spend on email, you get $36 to $40 back compared to social media where you may not get up to a dollar back or $2 back.""The best person to tell about what you wrote on your website is your contact list—the same way the best person to tell about something is your best friend.""I can have 50% open rate and no sales, that's vanity. But if you have 10-20% and that gives you more revenue because it's the right audience and it's segmented, then it helps a lot.""Don't just post on your website and expect magic to happen, abracadabra. You have to be intentional, you have to be factual.""Quality beats quantity. If you're actually able to capture that first party data and implement site tracking, it's very powerful to segment those people and send them follow-up messages."Book SEO Services | Quick Links for Social Business>> Book SEO Services with Favour Obasi-ike>> Visit Work and PLAY Entertainment website to learn about our digital marketing services>> Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community>> Read SEO Articles>> Subscribe to the We Don't PLAY Podcast>> Purchase Flaev Beatz Beats Online>> Favour Obasi-ike Quick LinksSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What is the difference between direct and indirect competitors?Direct competitors are businesses that offer the same products or services within your niche or market. They target the same customer base and operate in similar ways. For example, if you sell red roses, other florists selling red roses are your direct competitors.Indirect competitors are businesses that offer different products or services but satisfy the same customer need or compete for the same market share. Using the flower example, supermarkets and farmer's markets selling flowers would be indirect competitors to a specialized florist.2. How do I find out who my competitors are?Favour recommends using several competitive analysis tools:SimilarWeb: For website traffic and audience insightsSocialBlade: For social media analytics and competitor trackingSparkToro: For audience intelligence and content discoveryYou can also identify competitors by searching for your target keywords on Google and seeing which businesses rank for those terms. Consider both national, international, local, and regional competitors depending on your market scope.3. Should I focus on Google or Instagram for my business?According to Favour, Google is the most unsaturated platform because it's based on search intent—people actively looking for specific solutions. Instagram is a feed-based platform better suited for brand awareness and showcasing visual results (before/after transformations, product demonstrations).Best approach: Use both strategically. Google captures pre-purchase intent (people researching solutions), while Instagram provides post-purchase validation and builds brand awareness. Having a website connected to your Instagram profile adds credibility and improves your off-page SEO.4. What's more important: ranking or performance?Favour emphasizes that performance is more important than ranking. Rankings fluctuate constantly (like stock prices or gas prices), but performance focuses on long-term outcomes:How quickly can you serve customers?What value do you provide beyond just appearing in search results?Can customers find your information when they need it?Anyone can rank with AI-generated content today, but what makes your business different is the experience, speed, and value you deliver to customers.5. How do I approach SEO if I have no competition in my field?When you're in a niche market with little to no competition, Favour suggests:Reverse engineer your success: If you're getting traction on Instagram, create corresponding website content (10 Instagram posts = 10 website articles)Focus on search volume: Research if there's search demand on Google for your servicesBuild credibility: Having a website validates your business more than social media aloneCreate content ecosystems: Connect your social media to your website through embedding posts and cross-linking6. Why is having a website important if I already have Instagram?A website provides business validation and credibility. As Favour's example illustrated: if three businesses offer the same service but only one has a website, customers will trust the one with a website because it demonstrates investment in human resources, infrastructure, and long-term commitment.Additionally, a website enables off-page SEO—when your Instagram links to your website, you're building relationship models between platforms that improve your overall search visibility.7. What is pre-purchase vs. post-purchase intent?Pre-purchase intent: Customers researching before buying (e.g., reading Amazon reviews, comparing products on Google)Post-purchase intent: Customers who already bought and need guidance (e.g., watching YouTube tutorials on how to use an air fryer they purchased)Understanding this distinction helps you create appropriate content for each stage of the customer journey. Google and review sites capture pre-purchase intent, while platforms like YouTube and Instagram serve post-purchase needs.8. Should I run ads if people can't find my business organically?Favour advises: Don't run ads first if people can't find you organically. If the answer to "Will they find my business without ads?" is no, then focus on building organic visibility first through SEO and content creation.If people can already find you organically, then running ads becomes more cost-effective because you're amplifying existing brand awareness rather than starting from zero.9. What are applied SEO marketing tactics?Applied SEO refers to search everywhere optimization—not just optimizing for Google, but creating a comprehensive presence across all platforms where customers might search:Google searchInstagram searchYouTube searchSocial media platformsReview sitesLocal directoriesIt's about understanding customer behavior across multiple touchpoints and ensuring your business is discoverable wherever customers are looking.Additional Resources MentionedSimilarWeb: Competitive website analyticsSocialBlade: Social media statistics and trackingSparkToro: Audience research and insightsChatGPT: AI content generation tool (mentioned in context of ranking vs. performance)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Bread and Circuses were the instrument of control at the end of the Roman Empire. The shows at the coliseum featuring graphic barbarism, the open display of killing and the normalization of state defined enemies, all made available to the public for free including free bread. The masses became willfully bought and controlled. Today our version of this are the dramas of war, the institutionalized hatred of fellow Americans based on their political beliefs or religious beliefs, the scripted soap operas of Congressional testimonies that never produce results and the condemnation of citizens for daring to ask about Epstein instead of celebrating the profiteering and pillaging of the stock market . All of this is manipulation grounded in the roots of Babylon. None of this is of Jesus, nor does it reflect the Way of Christ. #BardsFM_Morning #BreadAndCircuses #WeAreAllConnected Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com EnviroKlenz Air Purification, promo code BARDS to save 10%: www.enviroklenz.com EMPShield protect your vehicles and home.

A new study reveals acceptance for gay behavior is dropping at big levels, and the HRC is losing corporations at a record fast pace, no longer willing to be bullied. So why are public schools, such as Seattle, pushing the LGBTQ ideology on kids as young as 5 and not allowing opt-outs? Even after a big SCOTUS case, they doubled down! Kate Anderson, Senior Counsel and Director of the Center for Parental Rights with ADF, joins us to explain ways parents can push back.

God's favor shows up in real life, not just in easy moments, and this message speaks to how that plays out.Through the story of Joseph and real testimonies from the room, this teaching explores favor as God's redemptive power at work in unexpected places. Hear how favor can show up during pressure, setbacks, and unfair situations, and how forgiveness, faith, and what we say matters more than timing or conditions.This conversation invites us to see our challenges through a different lens and recognize that God's favor never leaves, even when life feels complicated.

Affliction doesn't get to forecast your future. In this message, Alan unpacks the words of Nahum 1:9: "Affliction shall not rise a second time." He explores the difference between affliction that is permitted for preparation and affliction that seeks to oppress and dominate—and what changes when God speaks not just a promise, but a judicial decree that settles a matter. Drawing from the lives of Joseph, Mordecai, the Exodus story, and the woman who touched the hem of Jesus' garment, this teaching addresses recurring cycles—old pain resurfacing, fear of regression, emotional bracing, and the sense that past struggles might return. Instead, it points to a shift into established favor, where affliction loses jurisdiction, joy is restored, and the future is no longer shaped by what once ruled. Affliction ends. Favor remains. And God establishes His people for what comes next.

In this sermon, Fr. Matthias Shehad explores the concept of "The Favor of God" by examining the Annunciation to the Virgin Mary and Scripture passages that reveal how believers can obtain God's favor. He explains that God's favor is not random but earned through prayer, obedience to God's commandments, seeking God wholeheartedly, living righteously, offering our first fruits, and embracing humility. Fr. Matthias emphasizes that prayer maintains our connection with God, while keeping His commandments requires trust beyond our understanding. Seeking God and living humbly help believers submit to God's will. The sermon also highlights the benefits of God's favor, including joy, mercy, protection, and victory over enemies. Through biblical examples such as Mary and Abel, Fr. Matthias encourages cultivating a life aligned with God's will to experience His blessing and favor.

Yinz Are Good shares the *good* news going on out there and celebrates the good people who are making it happen: The people who are lifting others up, who are taking care of their neighbors, the people who are saying, “What can I do today to make our world a better place?”.Our guest today reached out to us from the other side of the country - from Idaho, to be exact - and boy, are we glad he did. Let's start with this: our guest's work has been recognized on Mike Rowe's Returning the Favor, CNN Heroes (where he was a Top 10 finalist!), NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, Good Morning America, The Today Show, People Magazine, and even American Ninja Warrior. His name is Luke Mickelson and his work is the nonprofit, Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP).What began as a single act of kindness has grown into a global nonprofit with a simple but powerful mission: “No kid sleeps on the floor in our town.”. Today, SHP has more than 400 chapters across 47 U.S. states and 4 countries. They build beds for kids who need them and wait until you hear how many beds they have made to date…it is astounding. Tressa had the great joy and honor of chatting with Luke via Zoom (she couldn't quite make it over to Idaho). This is a conversation about taking care of one another, about how listening to your inner voice - your gut - can propel you to new and unexpected chapters of your life, and about how saying “yes” to unexpected opportunities can literally change the lives of strangers.
