After the death of a child, it can feel as though everything you believed about God has been shaken. If His favor meant His protection, why did He allow this unimaginable loss? In this episode, Laura shares a perspective that has been quietly transforming her own understanding of God’s favor through the life of Moses and his relationship with the Lord. Rather than offering easy answers, she gently invites grieving parents to discover a deeper way of knowing God, even in the midst of heartbreak. This is an honest and hope-filled conversation for pareavors who are struggling to reconcile their pain with God’s goodness. As Laura reflects on her own journey after Becca’s death, she offers encouragement that while child loss changes so much about our lives, it does not change God’s unchanging character or His desire to draw us close. His greatest gift has never been a life free from suffering, but the promise of His presence—both now and for all eternity.

The story was always there. It just took the right storytellers to find it. That's the central lesson of Formula 1: Drive to Survive, and it's the same one B2B marketers keep missing. Michael Londgren, CMO at Responsive, joins us to unpack why Drive to Survive is one of the best modern case studies in brand building, and what it teaches us about storytelling, category creation, and why the best product doesn't always win. Together, we dig into why optimizing for serendipity beats optimizing for control, why nobody actually cares about your product features, and why treating marketing as a favor to your team might be the most expensive executive mistake of all. About our guest, Michael Londgren Michael Londgren is CMO at Responsive, the category leader in strategic response management - helping companies win more business with faster, trusted responses to RFPs, security questionnaires, and due diligence requests. He joined the company when it was still known as RFPIO and helped lead its rebrand and category creation strategy. Before that, he held senior marketing roles at DocuSign and Ariba. He's also a committed McLaren fan and a reluctant F1 convert who has since gone fully down the rabbit hole. What B2B Marketers Can Learn From Formula 1: Drive to Survive The story was always there — your job is to find it. F1 racing existed for decades before Drive to Survive. The rivalries, the drama, the characters - none of it was invented. What changed was that someone decided to actually tell the story. Ian's point is direct: "In B2B, we do the same exact thing where we just make excuses for ourselves about how boring we are. It's not boring to the people whose life's work it is." Michael connects it to the 15,000 SaaS solutions all competing for a slot in a company's stack of roughly 30: "If you're a standard B2B marketer doing the standard B2B things in a sea of 15,000 competitors, you're not gonna win." The brands that break through aren't the ones with the best features - they're the ones who found a human story worth telling. Don't brief your way to authenticity. Go find the story. Optimize for serendipity, not control. When Drive to Survive's producers started filming, they didn't know what the show would look like. They didn't know if teams would open up. They didn't know what rivalries would emerge. Season 1 was imperfect, messy, and completely riveting. Ian draws the line to B2B: "What people do is they don't do that, because they want to optimize for control. Whereas optimizing for serendipity is a far better strategy." B2B marketing teams script every word, engineer every answer, and then wonder why nobody engages. Michael connects it to something he learned from Keith Krach, co-founder of Ariba: "Luck is when opportunity meets preparation." The grind is still required — you just can't design the outcome. Sometimes the thing that makes the show is the character you didn't plan on finding. Nobody cares about your product. They care about value. Michael puts it plainly: "Let's be honest, nobody cares about the product. They don't." Drive to Survive runs eight seasons and barely covers how the cars actually work. The engineering matters enormously. But it's not the story. The story is the drivers, the rivalries, the decisions, and what it costs to win. Michael connects it directly to Responsive's rebrand from RFPIO: "RFPIO is very product focused. Responsive is a higher value, more interesting concept. Everyone wants to be responsive. That's an aspiration." The lesson for any B2B brand: lead with what the value unlocks, back it with customer voices, and let the product prove itself rather than trying to prove it upfront. Marketing is a strategic imperative, not a favor. Ian heard something on a recent shoot that stuck with him: a senior executive said, "Anything to help marketing." It sounds generous. It's actually the wrong frame entirely. "You're not helping marketing," Ian says. "You're doing the thing that is strategically imperative for our business." He identifies three people any audience most wants to hear from: the CEO (who sets the vision), customers (who validate the value), and anyone inside the organization who happens to be genuinely interesting. Michael adds the Responsive example - a team member who started small-group Coffee Chats with customers, grew them to hundreds of regulars, and became a mini-celebrity in their community: "Identifying who really resonates and putting investment behind that person. That's it." "The future of marketing is customer success — how customers are getting value — and bringing that to life authentically. Back to Drive to Survive: authentic human storytelling within the context of high-stakes racing. That combination is a winning combination." — Michael Londgren Time Stamps [1:33] Meet Michael Londgren, CMO at Responsive [2:25] Why Formula 1: Drive to Survive?

God has favor for you today! In today's devotional, Pastor Kerrick shares how you can go from having a moment of favor to a life of favor.

Favor can feel like a mystery word, something reserved for the lucky or the connected. We slow down and let Scripture redefine it: “Surely, O Lord, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield” (Psalm 5:12). If you're craving peace, spiritual encouragement, or a daily Christian devotional that steadies your emotions, this short time in God's presence is meant to quiet your soul and pull you closer to the Father's heart.We lean on the promise that the king's heart is in the Lord's hand, and we ask God to break through hindrances, guide outcomes, and let His purposes rest on the work of your hands. Listen, share this with someone who needs a lift, and subscribe plus leave a review so more people can find this devotional encouragement.

2 Samuel 9:1–13 We live in a world of earning and deserving. Promotions come to those who perform. Favor goes to those with the right background. But grace—true grace—operates by a completely different economy. It seeks out the undeserving and pulls them to the table. From 2 Samuel 9, Pastor Chuck Swindoll tells the remarkable story of Mephibosheth, a crippled outcast brought to eat at King David's table as one of his own sons. In this obscure Old Testament story lives the clearest picture of how God's grace works. See yourself in Mephibosheth. Embrace the grace God extends to you freely, and enjoy the life available to those who sit at His table!

When a Man Stops Guarding His Heartwe continue our series on the Life of David we will learn that David is not perfect and neither are we. God is not looking for a life of perfection but He is looking for a heart that is set on Him. David's son Solomon wrote a book called Proverbs. In there he says, “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” -Proverbs 4:23 The greatest battle that you and I will ever face is not on the outside of us, but it is the battle that takes place in our heart. When a man stops guarding his heart we are uncertain how far from God we can wonder and what our minds will conceive. David has: Been Anointed as KingDefeated GoliathSurvived Saul Hunting HimRuled the Souther Kingdom of Judah for 7.5 yearsUnited Israel's Divided KingdomEstablished JerusalemExperienced God's Favor.This is a stunning resume. This is the resume of one who seems to be great in might and self disciplined in spirit. Yet David's Greatest battle was not against a giant, It was a battle against himself.

Psalm 90

Did Trump Betray Israel? Or Is Something Bigger Happening Behind the Scenes? This week, the Trump administration finalized a ceasefire agreement with Iran that has sent shockwaves throughout Israel and the Middle East. Reports indicate the deal was reached without consulting Israel and includes demands that Israel withdraw from Southern Lebanon and halt operations against Hezbollah. Meanwhile, both President Trump and Vice President JD Vance have publicly criticized the Israeli government, raising serious questions about the future of the U.S.-Israel relationship. Is this a historic realignment of American foreign policy? A temporary political dispute? Or does it signal a deeper strategic shift that could reshape the Middle East for years to come? On today's episode, Ari, Jeremy, Luke, and Joshua break down the ceasefire, the reactions inside Israel, the growing divide between American political leaders and the Israeli government, and what it all means for the future of the region. We also discuss:

Your calendar is preaching something.The question is: is it preaching divine assignment… or survival?So many entrepreneurs say they want to be Spirit-led, but their weeks are being discipled by urgency, inboxes, meetings, client needs, and other people's panic.In this episode of The Estherpreneur Podcast, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I actually structure my week as a Kingdom-minded strategist carrying a big vision — not from pressure, performance, or productivity culture, but from stewardship.Because the way you order your time reveals what you believe you are responsible for.And some of what has been filling your calendar was never yours to carry.I'm sharing the weekly rhythm that helps me protect my peace, honor my capacity, create space for deep strategic work, and stay aligned with what God has actually assigned me to build in this season.This is not about becoming more efficient so you can do more.It's about becoming more obedient so you can carry well.If your week has been running you instead of serving the assignment, this conversation will help you pause, reassess, and rebuild your rhythm from a place of clarity.Because urgency may be loud, but it is not Lord.Listen in and don't just take notes. Let the Holy Spirit show you what needs to be reordered.Enjoyed today's episode?

This Sunday we continued our series on Favor by exploring what it means to have favor with man. Luke tells us that Jesus "grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man" (Luke 2:52). While we've spent much of this series talking about God's favor toward us—His delight, love, and covenant faithfulness—we shifted our attention to the reality that favor also exists in our relationships with people.One of the biggest takeaways for me is that favor with man is less about charisma and more about character. Throughout Scripture, favor seems to grow around qualities like wisdom, humility, integrity, faithfulness, stewardship, and service. We often ask, "How do I get people to notice me?" but the better question may be, "How do I become the kind of person people can trust?" Many of the opportunities, partnerships, responsibilities, and open doors in our lives are connected to trust.We see throughout Scripture that both favor with God and favor with man matter. God's favor is received by grace, but favor with man is often cultivated through character. As we continue to follow Jesus, may we become people who are not only secure in God's love but also trustworthy in the eyes of those around us.For more info, you can go to our website, check us out on Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube.

Charles Schwab's Adam Lynch says Bitcoin's recent decline reflects a classic bear market following a short-lived relief rally, with the FOMC adding pressure to digital assets. He notes investors are rotating into equities like Micron (MU), highlighting a divergence between crypto and traditional markets. Lynch also flags Illinois' new transaction-based crypto tax as a potential headwind that could push firms out of the state.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

We live in a world of earning and deserving. Promotions come to those who perform. Favor goes to those with the right background. But grace—true grace—operates by a completely different economy. It seeks out the undeserving and pulls them to the table.From 2 Samuel 9, Pastor Chuck Swindoll tells the remarkable story of Mephibosheth, a crippled outcast brought to eat at King David's table as one of his own sons.

Kaladan converses with some Stoneford citizens. The party is presented with an opportunity to learn more about the circumstances surrounding the city's dilemma... but at what cost?

It wasn't some edgy policy point. It was a cheap racist insult aimed at Michelle Obama, and pretending it's a factual claim we need to evaluate is how bad-faith garbage gets laundered into mainstream conversation

Pastor Chad teaches that God's favor is not measured by outward success, but by God's presence in our lives. Through Joseph's story, he explains that God remains with us through seasons of hardship, uses trials to develop our character, faithfully delivers us from affliction, and ultimately works His purposes in ways we could never accomplish on our own. The message reminds believers that God's favor is a shield around them and that every victory is ultimately the result of God's hand at work, not their own strength.

Using the Exodus story as a powerful metaphor, Rabbi Steve Berkson beautifully guides us through the journey from slavery to freedom. This message encourages us to believe in the possibility of change and deliverance, inspired by the Israelites' escape from Egypt. It reminds us that real deliverance involves personal growth, not just external help. Rabbi Berkson, referencing Ephesians chapter two, highlights the significance of grasping its core message: to overcome hostility and accept the grace available to everyone through Messiah Yeshua by following the path that Elohim has laid out in His Torah.• Intro/Review• Yahweh's Role in the Process - Step 3• Ephesians 2:1-2 Authority over nothing?• Ephesians 2:3 The battle for your mind• Ephesians 2:4-7 Favor equals graciousness• Ephesians 2:8 If we act in belief…• Ephesians 2:9 What kind of moron…?• Something funny about Ephesians 2:5• Back to zero• Ephesians 2:10 We should walk in these… • Ephesians 2:11 Two groups of people• Ephesians 2:12 Having no expectation and without Elohim• Ephesians 2:13-15 Messiah abolished what? • Ephesians 2:16 Restored to favor• Ephesians 2:17-22 No longer strangers, but fellow citizens Learn more about MTOI:https://mtoi.orgThe MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-appFollow MTOI:https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwidehttps://www.tiktok.com/@mtoi_worldwide Contact MTOI:
