Appearing as a guest on the Scott Adams School, Stefan Molyneux reflects on personal agency and the pull of despair while paying tribute to Scott Adams. He addresses the particular struggles confronting younger people today and argues that moral courage combined with genuine optimism carries far more weight than dwelling in dark or defeatist stories. The discussion turns to justice and forgiveness, where he stresses that real reconciliation depends on meaningful accountability rather than avoidance. He ends by urging clarity within oneself despite surrounding chaos, encouraging those listening to keep seeking understanding and real human connection.For more from the The Scott Adams School, go to:X: https://x.com/ScottAdamsSaysLocals: https://scottadams.locals.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RealCoffeeWithScottAdamsGET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/family-devotions/20260313fam.mp3 Listen to Devotion Read: John 4:5-26 A Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?” The Samaritan woman said to him, “You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.) Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I won't get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.” John 4:7,9,13-15 The Picture We Can't Live Without In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Have you ever heard someone say, “A picture is worth a thousand words”? It means that sometimes showing a picture is better than trying to explain it with words. For example, I could describe a famous painting for a long time but seeing it in person makes it so much easier to understand. When Jesus taught people, he loved to use pictures like that to help them understand really important truths. One of his favorite pictures was water. Why water? Because we literally can't live without it! A human body can only survive about three days without water. Water is essential for life. One day, Jesus met a woman at a well. She had come to draw water to drink. Jesus used that every day, important water to teach her about something even more important: spiritual life. He said: “Whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life” (John 4:14). Jesus wasn't talking about water you guzzle from a bottle that quenches your thirst for a little while. He was talking about the gift of salvation—forgiveness of sins and eternal life—something that lasts forever. We all look for things in this life to make us happy. The woman at the well thought the right person in her life would make her happy. We might think games, friends, screens, or even AI will satisfy us. The problem is those things never fully satisfy us. They leave us wanting more. They leave us feeling empty. Jesus gives us what we can't find anywhere else: Forgiveness when we foolishly look elsewhere for fulfillment. Peace with God for the moments we need it most. Eternal life to someday replace this life. And the best part? He fully satisfies us with salvation! We don't need to keep going back and trying over and over—Jesus already gives us everything we need. Jesus even gave us a picture of this truth: his cross. Look at it, and you see the gift of salvation, love, and forgiveness—all in one picture. Prayer: Dear Lord, thank you for helping me understand how important your gift of salvation is for me. May your gift always satisfy me and make me truly happy. Amen. The questions below are to help families discuss this devotion. The questions are divided by age group as suggestions, but anyone could reflect on any of the questions as they desire. Questions for Younger Children What happens to a person who doesn't drink water? How is that like what happens to someone who doesn't know or believe in Jesus? When you see a picture of a cross, what does it make you think of? Questions for Elementary Age Children Why was the woman at the well so surprised that Jesus talked to her? What does that show us about Jesus? How is spiritual life like drinking water? How is it different? Questions for Middle School and Above Name three other things people sometimes look to for happiness or fulfillment. Jesus used a normal, everyday thing (water) to teach a spiritual truth. Can you think of something in your life that could help you teach someone about Jesus? How would that look? Download Family Devotions Family Devotions are brought to you by WELS Discipleship.

What did Jesus Christ really mean when he said, “Love your enemies”?In this episode, we explore why forgiveness is one of the most misunderstood teachings in the Christian tradition. Drawing on the insights of the mystic Meister Eckhart and lessons from history and psychology, we examine how resentment can trap us in cycles of pain, and how forgiveness becomes a powerful act of inner liberation.This conversation offers a deeper understanding of forgiveness, not as weakness, but as a courageous path toward spiritual freedom.#Forgiveness #SpiritualGrowth #InnerFreedom #LettingGo#HealingJourney #EmotionalHealing #FaithAndLife #SpiritualWisdom #ChristianMysticism#SpiritualAwakeningUseful Information:www.reinogevers.comhttps://reinodiary.com/Books:Sages, Saints and SinnersDeep Walking for Body Mind and SoulWalking on Edge: A pilgrimage to Santiago
Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell sit down with Pulitzer Prize winning Journalist and Bone Valley podcast creator Gilbert King for a conversation that connects wrongful conviction, racial injustice, and the raw power of storytelling across decades of American history. King shares how his research into Thurgood Marshall's landmark civil rights battles in the Jim Crow South led him to Leo Schofield — a Florida man who spent 36 years in prison for a murder he didn't commit while the real killer, Jeremy Scott, walked free and killed again. He also recounts the jaw-dropping moment he sat with Leo when Jeremy called unexpectedly — and Leo forgave him. We're also unpacking why prosecutors double down instead of admitting error, how the judicial system's resistance to finality crushes innocent people, and why one storyteller's decision to shine a light can change everything. ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References Get to know Pulitzer Prize winner Gilbert King — follow him on Facebook and Instagram Listen to Gilbert's podcast Bone Valley - Leo Schofield's storyCan't get enough of Bone Valley?

In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman continue the story of Joseph in Genesis 42–50 and watch the cliffhanger finally unfold. What once looked like betrayal, prison, and loss slowly reveals a story where God was working the whole time. As Joseph's brothers return during the famine, the story becomes a powerful picture of Christ's character. Through hidden mercy, undeserved generosity, and a carefully unfolding plan, Joseph's actions begin to mirror the heart of Jesus — a Savior who sees us fully, works for our good even when we cannot see it, and offers grace far beyond what we deserve. This episode is a reminder that even when the story feels unfinished, God is still writing. And in the end, the same truth echoes through every chapter: what others may intend for harm, God can still turn into something good.

Forgiveness is one of the most difficult commands Jesus gives—and one of the most freeing. When someone deeply wounds us, the natural response is to hold tightly to the hurt. We replay the moment, rehearse the injustice, and quietly hope that somehow the person responsible will feel the weight of what they did. But unforgiveness slowly becomes its own prison. Galatians 5:1 reminds us that Christ set us free so we would no longer live in bondage. Yet when we hold onto bitterness, we place a yoke back on our own shoulders. The offense may have been real and painful, but the burden of carrying resentment can slowly consume our hearts. Forgiveness does not mean excusing wrongdoing or pretending the pain never happened. It does not mean that justice is ignored or that trust is instantly restored. Instead, forgiveness means releasing the right to hold someone’s offense over them and entrusting justice to God. Jesus demonstrated this ultimate act of mercy on the cross. Even as He was being crucified, He prayed for those who harmed Him. Through His sacrifice, our sins were forgiven completely—removed as far as the east is from the west. When we remember how much we have been forgiven, it reshapes how we approach the forgiveness of others. Unforgiveness isolates us from the freedom Christ intends for us. Bitterness quietly grows, affecting our peace, our relationships, and even our fellowship with God. But when we release that burden—sometimes slowly, sometimes painfully—we make room for healing. The Holy Spirit empowers us to forgive even when it feels impossible. Forgiveness is not a feeling we wait for; it is a step of obedience we choose. And when we choose it, we begin to experience the freedom Christ died to give us. Main Takeaways Unforgiveness creates emotional and spiritual bondage. Forgiveness releases the burden of bitterness and resentment. Forgiving does not excuse wrongdoing but entrusts justice to God. Christ’s sacrifice reminds us how deeply we have been forgiven. The Holy Spirit empowers believers to forgive even deep wounds.

Jesus offers a parable about the crucial, non-negotiable need for forgiveness. (Lectionary #238) March 10, 2026 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com
Father describes how and why it is important to forgive others, no matter who.
What if the place you most want to avoid is the very place where Jesus wants to meet you? In this week’s episode of The Love Offering Podcast, I had the meaningful opportunity to talk with author and speaker Willow Weston about her powerful new book, Collide. Life rarely unfolds the way we imagine it will. Heartbreak, loss, trauma, disappointment, and shame can leave us feeling scattered and unsure of how to move forward. Many of us try to outrun the pain or bury it beneath busy lives and brave faces. But as Willow gently reminds us, unresolved hurt has a way of resurfacing—often through anxiety, broken relationships, or a deep sense of restlessness. But what if our pain isn’t the end of the story? In Collide, Willow invites us to consider a different possibility: that Jesus meets us right in the middle of our mess. Not to shame us or condemn us, but to walk with us, heal what is broken, and begin restoring our hearts. Through her own honest and vulnerable story, Willow offers compassionate guidance for those who long for healing but aren’t sure where to begin. Together we talk about: Why our past wounds often shape our present struggles How avoiding pain can keep us stuck in unhealthy patterns What Scripture reveals about weakness, suffering, and God’s nearness How inviting Jesus into our hurt opens the door for real healing And how our healing can ripple outward to bless others One of the most encouraging reminders from our conversation is this: we don’t have to arrive healed before coming to Jesus. We can come exactly as we are—limping, weary, unsure—and trust that He meets us there. Friend, if you’re carrying something heavy today, I hope this conversation reminds you that God sees you, He cares deeply about what you’ve walked through, and He is near to the brokenhearted. You don’t have to run from your pain.You can bring it to Him. My prayer is that this episode encourages you to take one small step toward healing and to trust that even the places that feel most broken can become places where God’s grace meets you most powerfully. With love, Rachael Host, The Love Offering PodcastAuthor of Everyday Prayers for Love P.S. If this episode encourages you, consider sharing it with a friend who may need the reminder that healing is possible—and that Jesus meets us right in the middle of our story.

Forgiveness is not an emotion, a feeling or an option. It is a deliberate choice to release resentment , bitterness and the desire for revenge that is directed to another person. When it speaks, it does so to the past, the present and the future. If we dont forgive, Jesus will not forgive us our trespasses. So, forgive someone today.
Where is God when we suffer? How does grief intensify sexual temptation? Why do we need to "run toward the roar" of triggers and traumas instead of avoiding them?

Recover Your Soul: A Spiritual Path to a Happy and Healthy Life
I would love to hear from you! Send me a one way text and share how Recover Your Soul is supporting you or what you would like to hear more about.I want to share something with you before you press play on this one.This is a replay from about three and a half years ago, an episode I recorded after a trip to Sayulita, Mexico, where my husband came clean that he had continued to 'dabble' with drinking, even after the profound changes we had both made in our lives with recovery. Going back to edit it brought all of it up again. The grief. The love. The complexity of it.Because here's the truth — Rich did stop drinking the way he had for most of his adult life, and that was real and significant. But over the years he has continued to dabble, and each time he eventually has come clean about it, it has hurt. And at the very same time, I can see that this is his journey to Recover Your Soul. Addiction is a beast that is not easy to tame, especially when someone hasn't fully admitted they are powerless over it.What this trip opened in me was a deeper clarity that working on myself is the only place I have any real power. Not because I don't care but because turning within and finding my own self-love, my own joy, my own healing is the deepest work there is. And it is not selfish. Not even a little bit.If you are loving someone in their addiction right now, this episode is for you. Together, we can do the work that will Recover Your Soul.Are you ready to Recover Your Soul?

When you know a problem, you can address it. When you have the background of a situation, you are better equipped to assess it and react appropriately. Proper education and training are essential for achieving objectives and goals within a given field. One day, Jesus was talking to a woman in a village he was passing through. She had not met him before. Both his ethnicity and his gender as a Jewish man would have made a public conversation between the two of them culturally inappropriate at that time. But Jesus was willing to work past those cultural norms. He began the conversation by asking her for a drink of water. When she responded with surprise and suspicion, what he said got her attention even more: “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.” “If you knew…” But she didn’t. To her, Jesus was just a bold Jewish rabbi. But he was so much more. He was the Son of God who gave physical water its qualities that are so important for life. He was the Messiah, who came from God to quench the needs of thirsty souls with his grace, mercy, and forgiving love. He was the only one who could solve her deepest need and ours. Jesus wants us to know him, too. When we know who he is, we eagerly come to him with every need of our thirsty souls, knowing that he will meet each one. He already has. By taking our sins on himself, he set us free from guilt. By giving his life for us, he rescued us from death. By rising from the dead, he gave us eternal life with him. No need is too great for him. In the Bible, Jesus invites you to get to know him better. Then, knowing how he loves to bless you, turn to him in every time of need. Prayer: Dear Jesus, lead me to your Word to know you better and, knowing you, to come to you for every blessing. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Domestic Dad Cleaning Up The Mess | Sobriety, Parenting, Dad, Addiction, Recovery,
In this powerful and deeply personal episode of Domestic Dad: Cleaning Up The Mess, host Nick Barnett sits down with Keith Jeffries to unpack a story marked by addiction, heartbreak, spiritual awakening, and the life-changing power of surrendering to God. Keith shares openly about growing up in a loving home that lacked a spiritual foundation, and how his desire for acceptance and belonging led him down a destructive path at an early age. What began with drinking as a teenager quickly escalated into marijuana, prescription pills, heroin, and eventually years of meth addiction. Through his brutally honest reflection, Keith reveals how addiction slowly eroded his relationships, fueled selfish choices, and left him feeling empty despite outward success. Nick and Keith explore the deep wounds that often live beneath addiction—including father wounds, unresolved anger, and the quiet shame that lingers long after the chaos of substance abuse fades. Keith reflects on the painful realization that the scars addicts leave on others can be some of the hardest burdens to carry in sobriety. The turning point in Keith's story came during one of the darkest moments of his life. After years of addiction and the loss of his father, Keith found himself sitting alone with a gun in his hand, ready to end everything. Instead, in a moment he still struggles to fully explain, he fired the gun into the floor—an act that became a permanent reminder of the life he almost lost. Soon after, Keith attended a men's event called The Launching Pad in Dallas, Texas, where he experienced a powerful encounter with God that would change everything. In that moment of surrender, the addictions that once controlled him were broken, and Keith began a new journey of faith, obedience, and purpose. But the journey wasn't without heartbreak. After five years of infertility, Keith and his wife Kayla experienced the joy of discovering they were pregnant with twins—only to lose both babies to miscarriage weeks later. In one of the most painful seasons of their lives, they made the difficult decision to remain faithful and obedient to God, trusting that He still had a plan for their family. Today, Keith lives a completely transformed life—devoted to his faith, his marriage, and helping other men find freedom from addiction and hopelessness. His story is a powerful reminder that no matter how far someone believes they have fallen, redemption is always possible. Through honest conversation, Nick and Keith discuss the role of obedience, the importance of brotherhood and accountability, and the incredible ways God reveals Himself when people choose faith over fear. This episode is a raw and inspiring testimony that no one is too far gone for grace—and that sometimes the greatest miracles come after the darkest moments.

In this episode of DTWOL... Equipped? we will explore how the only true God equips His disciples—not through self-effort or human wisdom, but through His living and active Word and the power of the Holy Spirit. (Acts 1:8) We'll be diving into 2 Timothy 3:16–17, as we see how Scripture teaches, reproves, corrects, and trains His disciples so we may be adequate and equipped for every good work.We examine why God's Word is essential for discipleship, how reproof and correction are expressions of God's love, and how training in righteousness forms faithful disciples over time. This episode reminds us that being “equipped” is not about becoming impressive, but about being prepared—formed by God's Word, guided by His Spirit, and confident in the identity God has already given us in Jesus, amen?God's Word: Acts 1:8; 2 Timothy 3:16–17; 2 Timothy 4:5; Ephesians 2:10; Philippians 2:13Additional Scripture references are woven throughout the Godcast and can be gleaned from the full transcript.

In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman continue the story of Joseph in Genesis 42–50 and watch the cliffhanger finally unfold. What once looked like betrayal, prison, and loss slowly reveals a story where God was working the whole time. As Joseph's brothers return during the famine, the story becomes a powerful picture of Christ's character. Through hidden mercy, undeserved generosity, and a carefully unfolding plan, Joseph's actions begin to mirror the heart of Jesus — a Savior who sees us fully, works for our good even when we cannot see it, and offers grace far beyond what we deserve. This episode is a reminder that even when the story feels unfinished, God is still writing. And in the end, the same truth echoes through every chapter: what others may intend for harm, God can still turn into something good.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260308dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 True, Lasting Peace Amidst the struggles and hassles of our lives, there is a longing for true, lasting peace. If only there could be the peace that existed in the Garden of Eden. Our first parents lived in perfect harmony with God. They were his friends. And out of that peaceful relationship flowed a warm relationship with one another. The tragedy of sin was that it shattered both the peace between God and people and the peace among people. Quickly after the fall into sin, we see the rise of doubts and fears and hostility, which people directed both toward God and toward one another. True, lasting peace was lost. It's not hard to point to examples in our lives that demonstrate the truth of this: the envy in our hearts, the lust of our eyes, and the hurt that we cause by wayward words and selfish actions. For all these sins and the many more we do, we truly deserve God's eternal wrath and the pronouncement of his condemnation. Yet the remarkable thing is that God loves us, and he demonstrated his one-of-a-kind love by reestablishing peace between himself and his sinful, rebellious world of people. Listen to the words again: “While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Every teaching of Scripture rests upon this truth. Though all people are undeserving sinners, Christ sacrificed himself in their place to win peace between God and us. Peace was reestablished through the death of Jesus Christ for “the punishment that brought us peace was upon him” (Isaiah 53:5). God’s righteous wrath against sin was directed at Jesus, and he paid the deadly price for sin with his own precious blood and his innocent sufferings and death. Jesus said, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid” (John 14:27). Prayer: O Jesus, by humbling yourself and dying for me, you rescued sinners from the condemnation I deserved. Comfort me with the true, lasting peace which comes from knowing and believing that you are my precious Savior. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

The moment we stop treating Colossians 3 like a checklist and start wearing it like a robe, everything changes. We open with the text—compassion, kindness, humility, patience, forgiveness, love—and name the tension: these can feel like smoke in the eyes or like warmth by the fire. From there we walk the path Paul lays out, moving from “put to death” to “put on,” from battle to belonging, and we talk candidly about what happens when grievance sets up camp in the heart.We share why “Do I forgive?” is the wrong question and how “How do I forgive?” becomes a doorway to freedom. Drawing on Jesus' parable of canceled debts, we confront our quiet desire to be “small sinners” and discover the joy of being greatly forgiven. We also get practical about pace and posture: letting the peace of Christ rule looks like moving slower, talking less, and resisting the urge to fix everyone else. The only thing we're called to control is ourselves, and that self-control reframes when to correct and when to wait, choosing the good of others over the itch to be right.Harmony doesn't come from sameness; it grows where love binds differences. We explore how a community can teach, admonish, and still sing together without fracturing—because gratitude keeps the heart soft and the word of Christ keeps it steady. Along the way we touch on worship nostalgia, why restraint is a form of wisdom, and how a simple pause at the door—asking God to let peace rule—can transform a home, a team, or a church. If you're tired of carrying old wars into new rooms, this study invites you to lay them down and live clothed in Christ's righteousness.

Failing Forward | Cody McQueen--Peter asks Jesus how many times we should forgive someone.--Notes
Leviticus 16 // Nathan MillerIn this teaching on Leviticus 16, we examine the detailed instructions given to Aaron regarding the Day of Atonement. The sermon explains the gravity of entering behind the veil and the necessity of the sin offering and the burnt offering. A central focus is placed on the two goats: one sacrificed to satisfy justice and the "scapegoat" sent into the wilderness to carry away the guilt of the camp. We discuss how these rituals illustrate his mercy and the lengths he goes to so that his presence can remain among his people. This sermon helps us understand the weight of sin and the beauty of being made clean in his sight.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2542/responses/new26.03.08
