“But the Jews who were not persuaded, becoming envious, took some of the evil men from the marketplace, and gathering a mob, set all the city in an uproar and attacked the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people. But when they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some brethren to the rulers of the city, crying out, ‘These who have turned the world upside down have come here too.’” (Acts 17:5–6 NKJV) Why is it that first-century believers so radically impacted their world? After all, they didn’t have the cool technology we have today. They didn’t have well-known Christian authors and performers. They didn’t have megachurches. They didn’t have printing presses. Yet a relatively small group of men and women turned their first-century world on its ear, or “upside down,” as the Jewish leaders put it in Acts 17. They intended those words as a criticism of Christians—as a warning to others about them. But their description revealed the seismic impact Jesus’ followers had on the world around them. It’s also quite possible that the Jewish leaders inadvertently aided Christians in their evangelism efforts. Who wouldn’t be intrigued by the possibility of turning the world upside down? Yet for many believers today, those sights have been lowered considerably. People are content to live quiet, unobtrusive Christian lives. They don’t want to kick up too much dust in their walk with Christ. Especially in the United States, many believers are surviving on a watered-down, anemic version of Christianity. They don’t seem to be living at the same standard of Christian faith as the first-century Christians lived. You might say they have a “faith-light.” They seem to want to do only what is absolutely necessary. To put it another way, Jesus has a lot of fair-weather followers today. They will be Christians when it’s convenient, when it’s easy, or when it’s the popular thing to do. But the moment things get difficult, the moment hardship hits, the moment persecution rears its head, they retreat. They abandon their faith. They prove themselves to be less than true followers, less than real disciples. That certainly would explain why they’re not turning the world upside down. It also would explain why, far too often, the world seems to be turning the church upside down. Believers today need to get back to Christianity the way it is given to us in the Bible, the way that Jesus proclaimed it, the way the early church lived it—not the watered-down version of today but authentic, New Testament Christianity. In short, we need to become disciples of the Lord. Are you a disciple of Jesus Christ? Jesus asks His people to step out from the multitude, from the fair-weather followers, from the fickle people, to be His true disciples. Yet He never asks more from us than we can give. Not only will He reward our genuine discipleship, but He will also guide and direct us every step of the way. Reflection question: What would bold discipleship look like in your life?

In today's episode of Call Her Creator (powered by Stan), I'm sitting down with the incredible Shannon Gillette. She's a wife, boy mom, one of the top Realtors in Arizona, founder of The Gillette Group at Real Broker, and she's been featured on HGTV. Oh, and she's built an Instagram brand that's closing real business with nearly 100,000 followers. But here's what I love most: Shannon didn't start with a platform. She started from scratch in 2015 with no money, no clients, and zero followers. Now she leads a top-producing team selling hundreds of homes a year, and she credits one thing more than anything else. Instagram stories. This is not a fluff conversation. Shannon breaks down the systems, decisions, and behind-the-scenes effort that helped her build a personal brand that converts attention into income. We talk about how she treats Instagram like a reality show (not a commercial), why she posts five stories a day, how she uses video hooks to stop the scroll, and how she creates content that attracts the right people instead of trying to appeal to everyone. If you're a creator, entrepreneur, or service provider who wants to grow your audience and actually turn that growth into revenue, you're going to love this one. -Follow Katelyn on instagram -Follow Shannon on instagram Thank you to my sponsors: Stan: Join the Dare to Post Challenge-a 30-day challenge designed to help Creators turn their dream into actual momentum.

You don't need 10K followers. You don't even need 1,000. If you've been holding off on going “all in” with your social media management business because you think you need a big following first… this is your wake-up call.In this episode, I'm sharing the quiet strategy to book premium, high-ticket clients — even if you're brand new and barely have a presence online. These are the same methods I used to go full-time as a social media manager, and what I've taught to hundreds of students inside the Dishing Up Digital School.Spoiler: your follower count is the least important thing. Premium clients aren't looking for virality — they're looking for someone who gets results, builds trust, and makes their life easier. That can be you (even if you're just getting started).

You just don't know you're fighting it yet.**In 1884, Edwin Abbott wrote *Flatland* - a mathematical romance about a two-dimensional world where beings live as shapes on a plane, unable to perceive the third dimension of depth. He thought he was writing social satire.**He was actually writing a transmission about 2026.**About YOU.Living in a reality you think is solid, complete, “realistic” - while being completely blind to dimensions you can't perceive.**Your worth measured in 2D metrics:** Credentials. Salary. Followers. Job titles.**Your identity flattened to geometry:** How many “sides” you've accumulated in the game of status.**Your future planned on a horizontal plane:** Assuming linear time, guaranteed tomorrows, safe predictability.**You are A Square. And you don't even know you're trapped.**-----## What if I told you there's a vertical dimension hiding in plain sight?**Not “up” in some abstract spiritual sense.**But **UP** as in: *What becomes visible when death shatters your 2D certainty?*When you're fired after 26 years and your identity evaporates.When someone you love faces mortality and all your careful plans dissolve.When you turn fifty and realize you don't fit in the traditional game anymore.**These aren't tragedies. These are dimensional initiations.**Moments when the **Sphere** - a being from a higher dimension - enters your flat world and shows you: *Everything you thought was solid is just a cross-section.*-----## This episode activates your Reticular Activating System.That part of your brain that filters reality - deciding what you notice and what you ignore.**After this episode, your RAS will be tuned to see Flatland everywhere:**- In conversations where people brag about credentials- In systems designed to keep you flat and measurable- In your own thoughts when you catch yourself playing the 2D game- **In the moments when death whispers: “None of this is real”****Once activated, you can't deactivate it.**You'll start seeing the prison bars. The dimensional limitations. The game beneath the game.**And you won't be able to unsee it.**-----## This isn't a book review. This is an initiation.I've been lifted out of Flatland three times:- **Fired after 26 years** (identity death - the 2D game of job = worth revealed as illusion)- **Wife fighting cancer** (mortality confrontation - the future I was planning for might not exist)- **Turning fifty** (threshold moment - realizing I don't fit in the traditional workforce anymore)**These were my Sphere moments.** When death entered my flat world and showed me dimensions I couldn't perceive before.Now I'm back in Flatland. But I'm… changed.I can't play the game anymore. Can't pretend credentials matter. Can't believe in “realistic” thinking.**Because I've seen the vertical dimension.**And once you've been there - once you've been initiated by death, loss, shattering - **you can never fully believe in Flatland again.**-----## What you'll discover in this episode:**The architecture of Flatland** - How 2D thinking imprisons you without you realizing it**Death as the third dimension** - The vertical axis that breaks the flat plane of “normal life”**Your initiations** - Recognizing the moments when the Sphere appeared in YOUR life (and you might have missed it)**The RAS activation** - How this episode will permanently change what you perceive in your reality**The elder's burden** - What to do when you've been lifted out but dropped back into a world that thinks you're crazy-----## WARNING: This is not safe content.This episode is designed to make you **dangerously curious** and **a little uncomfortable.**Not reassured. Not inspired in the Instagram quote way.**Initiated.**By the end, you'll question:- Whether your job defines you (it doesn't - that's Flatland)- Whether your plans are guaranteed (they're not - that's 2D thinking)- Whether “being realistic” is wisdom (it's not - it's prison maintenance)- **Whether consensus reality is actually real (it's not - it's Flatland)**You'll start seeing patterns you can't unsee.Noticing dimensional breaks you used to ignore.Recognizing when death is trying to teach you something.**And there's no going back.**-----## This is Part 1 of a 6-episode series exploring:**Episode 1:** You Are Living in Flatland (And You Don't Even Know It) ← *You are here***Episode 2:** The Sphere Has Already Appeared. You Just Don't Remember Yet.**Episode 3:** Being Lifted Out - What You See From the Vertical Dimension**Episode 4:** Dropped Back In - When You Can't Fit in Flatland Anymore**Episode 5:** The Prison of Consensus Reality - Why They'll Call You Crazy**Episode 6:** Living Between Dimensions - The Work of the Initiated-----## Required reading (but read it AFTER this episode):***Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions*** by Edwin Abbott Abbott (1884)- Free online, any edition- ~100 pages- **Warning:** After this podcast series, you won't read it as fiction-----## The quote that changes everything:*“You are not crazy for seeing dimensions others can't perceive. You've just been initiated by death. And prisoners who see the bars become insurgents.”*-----**Your RAS is now activated.****You can't unknow this.****Welcome to the vertical dimension.****Welcome to the resistance.**-----*Initiated by death. Returned to Flatland. Speaking from the vertical dimension.**This is the Flatland series. This is the dimensional war.**And you just enlisted.*-----**[CONTENT WARNING: Discusses death, mortality, job loss, cancer, identity dissolution, dimensional initiation, reality destabilization, and the systematic dismantling of consensus thinking. Not recommended for those committed to remaining comfortably two-dimensional.]**-----## About this series:Following the 5-episode *Don Quixote* initiation series (where we explored tilting at windmills, vision vs delusion, defeat at fifty, and coming home), the *Flatland* series takes you deeper into dimensional knowing.**This is live philosophy.** Real-time transformation documented through literature.Not memoir. Not self-help.**Transmission from someone who's been lifted out and dropped back.**Consider this your field manual for the dimensional war.-----*Listen with headphones. Take notes.

My guest this week is Joseph Perello, founder and CEO of Props. Props is a performance-based creator marketing platform built around a simple belief. The best marketing still comes from people, not metrics. Instead of chasing follower accounts, Props uses AI to match brands with creators based on storytelling strength, trust, and audience authenticity. So campaigns are both data-driven and deeply human.AI does the heavy lifting in the background, brand safety, workflow and precision, while real human creators stay in front and center. Before launching Props, Joe built and ran a digital agency serving brands like Nike, HP, Lowe's Hotels, Betterment, and even Michelle Obama. And earlier in his career, he served as New York City's first CMO under Mayor Bloomberg, helping to revitalize tourism and launching the city's first self-sustaining marketing agency. Finally, Joe sits at the intersection of brand, policy, tech, and creative. I'm so happy I spent a few minutes with him at advertising week not long ago, and we're gonna continue that great conversation.

Most companies treat LinkedIn like a megaphone. AlleyOop turned it into a reality show. In this episode, host Jason Bradwell sits down with Gabe Lullo, CEO of AlleyOop, to unpack how his sales development agency scaled from 25,000 to over 1.2 million LinkedIn followers by empowering employees to build their personal brands, not pushing a corporate page. Gabe breaks down the playbook: hiring people who want to be on camera, building an in-house media team, running internal podcasts that never get published, and tying content performance directly to commission. This isn't theory, it's a proven system filling enterprise calendars with qualified meetings. Jason and Gabe dive into AlleyOop's 16-year evolution from traditional outbound to organic LinkedIn content. The real insight? Gabe stopped caring about the company page and focused entirely on employee personal brands. They aggregated all employee profiles (originally 25K followers, now 1.2M) and turned their team into documentary subjects. Employees aren't forced to post, but those who participate get full support: professional video editing, copywriting, and a content calendar. Gabe walks through hiring - candidates now submit sample social posts during interviews and how they set people up for success. They run internal podcast-style interviews, chop them into posts, send them to copywriters for frameworks, then hand them back to employees to personalise. The feedback loop is built around incentives. Sellers get more leads (more commission). Recruiters attract more candidates (more placements, more money). Everyone's financially tied to content performance, so buy-in is organic. Gabe measures success not just by impressions, but by whether prospects recognise team members before demos, cutting 60% of the typical sales pitch. Jason asks about the CEO fear: won't employees get poached if we build their brands? Gabe's answer: people leave anyway. AlleyOop actually built a business model around clients hiring their reps and gets paid when it happens. Companies trying to poach probably aren't investing in teams like AlleyOop does, so culture becomes retention. Looking to 2026, Gabe's taking the human-first approach from the feed into DMs. LinkedIn's becoming the new email inbox (buried in automation), so they're building tools for real one-on-one conversations that convert faster. If you're trying to activate your team on LinkedIn without it feeling forced, this episode is your blueprint. Gabe proves you can build a scalable, revenue-driving content engine by supporting people instead of controlling them. Whether you're in sales development, professional services, or any people-first business, these principles will transform how you think about employee advocacy. 00:00 - Introduction: BDR as a service and people-first growth 02:00 - AlleyOop's 16-year evolution and go-to-market 04:30 - Doubling down on LinkedIn content 3-4 years ago 07:00 - From 25K to 1.2M followers: the aggregation strategy 10:00 - Hiring for content: asking candidates for sample posts 13:00 - Setting employees up for success: the in-house media team 16:00 - Internal podcasts, videographers, and copywriters 19:00 - Feedback loops: 70/30 business vs personal content 22:00 - Tying content to commission: financial buy-in 25:00 - Measuring success: recognition before demos 28:00 - Overcoming the "they'll get poached" objection 31:00 - 2026 strategy: taking conversations into DMs 34:00 - Where to find Gabe and AlleyOop Connect with Jason Bradwell on LinkedIn Connect with Gabe Lullo on LinkedIn Subscribe to Do Hard Things Podcast on Apple Podcasts Visit AlleyOop's official site Explore B2B Better website and the Pipe Dream podcast

The Bitterness You Carry | Let It Go | Rick Atchley by The Hills Church

Bob Schwahn  |  Lead Pastor  |  January 25, 2026 Referenced Scripture: Luke 6:40, Romans 12:2, 1 John 4:19, 1 John 3:16, Luke 19:10 Reflection Questions: 1. Read Matthew 14:22-31
Why do you think Peter got out of the boat? What do you think Peter was thinking? (requires speculation)
(v. 31) Do you think Jesus was questioning Peter because he was doubting Jesus or because he was doubting himself? Explain your thinking. 2. Read Luke 6:40
Following Jesus is becoming like Jesus and imitating his life.
Why is learning about Jesus not enough? Is it possible that we can learn much about Jesus without being transformed by Him? Explain. 3. How can you know if you are being transformed by Jesus? What would be true of your life if Jesus was changing you? How can you see this in yourself and in others? 4. Read Romans 12:2
What things in this world can form us besides Jesus? What things have formed your life besides Jesus? 
How can a person know who or what is forming their life? 5. How can we intentionally be formed by Jesus rather than unintentionally formed by the world around us? 6. Framework of becoming like Jesus… (Triangle)
Imitating His love Relationships:
UP - love for the Father
IN - love for the Family of God
OUT - love for the Broken World In your own word describe how Jesus modeled these.
Which one of these comes most naturally to you?
Which one is the most challenging for you? 7. Why is it important that we are clear with others (and ourselves) what it means to be a follower of Jesus? 8. The invitation is not to be with Jesus when you die…
It's to die with Jesus while you live…
Agree or disagree with this statement? Why? 9. Assignment: 
Choose a gospel and read through it with these questions in mind…
How would I imitate what I see in Jesus in my own life?
What would I need to start doing? Stop doing? Keep doing?
How would my life be different if I took imitating Jesus seriously? What's your next step? Connect: We'd love to connect with you!

Followers of Jesus are called to do good works as a response to God's grace in our lives and as a natural outflow of how God is transforming us.

A new world order is being established. The geopolitics of this transformation are not being shared, but witnessed. We are expected to go along with it and believe that our best interest is wherever we land. It calls for our obedience to earthly leaders. Our obedience is to God. Not as dead pew sitters, anticipatory Christians biding our time until we are raptured out or die, but rather as Followers of Christ walking out the commission of Matthew 10. We are called to walk with HIM, share the good news, transform lives through witness and power of the Holy Spirit, and to be both soldiers and ambassadors of the Kingdom.

It's Episode 100, baby!

Followers of Jesus seem to be at the mercy of earthly kings bent on destroying them. But each of these rulers will instantly fold at a single word from the mouth of Christ. Today, Barry Cooper invites us to take heart in knowing the King of kings and Lord of lords.

If you want more followers, you need to be a leader. Look, we're in an epidemic of cowardice so when someone has the gall to stand for something, they stand out. When I look around at the current “leadership” online—and in the “real” world for that matter—there are no morals and no integrity to be […]
