He grew up in a Muslim home but found his faith in Christianity through personal experiences and encounters with the Holy Spirit. He highlights the importance of finding a supportive and accepting community in a church, where individuals can grow and be encouraged in their faith. Pastor Nur Rashid also discusses the challenges and hypocrisy he witnessed in the Christian community, emphasizing the need for authenticity and genuine transformation. His story serves as a reminder that true Christianity is not just about cultural practices, but about a personal relationship with God and a commitment to living according to His teachings. Joining a ministry can provide the accountability and community needed for spiritual growth. Acknowledging and utilizing people's talents in ministry is important for their engagement and effectiveness. God's timing and His work in our lives are crucial in relationships and ministry. Pastoral calling can be influenced by family heritage and personal conviction. Surrendering our dreams and plans to God's calling is essential for fulfilling His purpose in our lives. Seeking God's will and making Him the ultimate destination brings fulfillment and blessings, regardless of our circumstances. Being a pastor is not just a title, but a calling that requires becoming what God has called us to be. Discipleship involves loving and valuing people from all backgrounds and helping them grow in their relationship with God. As missionaries, we must rely on God as our main help and not depend solely on outside ministry support. Building a thriving work for God requires breakthroughs with different people groups and populations. The verse 2 Corinthians 5:17 reminds us that in Christ, we become new creations and old things pass away. Recommended books: 'Disciples Are Made, Not Born' and 'The Master Plan of Evangelism'. Prayer requests: a new building location, breakthroughs with different people groups, and financial provision for the mission. Sound Bites "God saved me and turned my life to the gospel. And ever since I became now, now I truly am a pastor." "Christians just lean on grace, they lean on the cross, but there is no actual change in lifestyle is what he saw a lot of." "I think God's calling me to be a pastor" "I can't go to New York until my whole family's saved" "God's plan for our lives are the best and they are unfathomable"

Foundations of Amateur Radio Morse code is a way for people to send information across long distances. The code we use today, made from dit and dah elements is nothing like the code demonstrated and attributed to Samuel Morse in 1837. Over years and with assistance from Professor of Chemistry Leonard Gail and Physicist Joseph Henry, then Professor of Literature, Samuel Morse, and mechanically minded Alfred Vail developed an electrical telegraph system that automatically moved a paper tape and used an electromagnet to pull a stylus into the paper and a spring to retract it, marking the paper with lines. The original system was only intended to transmit numbers, and combined with a dictionary, the operator could decode the message. The telegraph was able to send zig-zag and straight lines, transmitting the message "Successful experiment with telegraph September 4 1837". The system was enhanced to include letters, making it much more versatile. On the 6th of January 1838, across 4.8 km of wire, strung across a barn, the new design with letters and numbers was demonstrated. To optimise the enhanced version of the code, Alfred Vail went to his local newspaper in Morristown, New Jersey, to count the movable type he found in the compositor's type-cases, and assigned shorter sequences to the most common letters. You might think that this explains the distribution of the codes we see today, but you'd be wrong. The 1838 system used four different element lengths and varied the spacing inside a character. For example, the letter "o" was signified by two dits with a two unit space between them, where today it's represented by three dahs. The letter "p" was signified by five dits, today this represents the number "5", and the code didn't distinguish between "i" and "y", between "g" and "j", and between "s" and "z". A decade later and an ocean away in Germany, writer, journalist, and musician Friedrich Gerke created the Hamburg alphabet, based on the work by Vail and Morse, it standardised the length of the elements and spacing into what we use today, the dit and the dah. He changed about half of the characters and also incorporated four special German characters, the umlaut version of A, O and U and the CH sound - pronounced like the sound for the composer "Bach" or the Dutch name "Benschop" - not to be confused with the CH in child, or the CK in clock, or the SH sound in shop. It was different in other ways. For example, the letter "i" and "j" had the same code. The code was optimised to be more robust across undersea telegraph cables. I'll be coming back to that before we're done exploring, but not today. If you want to skip ahead, the term you're looking for is dispersion. Gerke's code was adopted in 1851 across Germany and Austria and it is known as Continental Morse code. By the time most of Gerke's code was adopted as the European Standard in 1865 as one of many agreements that mark the founding of the International Telegraph Union in Paris, only four sequences of the original 1838 code remained and only two of those, "e" and "h" were identical. Which means that although the idea that Morse code is based around English is often repeated, at this stage it's nothing more than a myth, which my previous word list and subsequent dictionary letter counts across over fifty languages confirm. I'll mention that given Gerke's German heritage, I also made a letter count from a modern German dictionary and one from 1901 and found that the letter distribution in those two are very similar with only the letter "s" and "t" swapped between position four and five in the popularity contest stakes. The German letter Top-5 is "enrts" and the "o" is the 16th most popular letter. Speaking of "o", one observation to make is that the new International Morse code contained the letter "o" as dah-dah-dah, it also contained the letter "p" as dit-dah-dah-dit. These two codes come from an 1849 telegraph code designed by physicist, inventor, engineer and astronomer Carl August von Steinheil. There is evidence suggesting that he invented a print telegraph and matching dot script in 1836, based around positive and negative pulses, rather than pulse duration. I'm purposely skipping over earlier telegraph systems built and used by Carl Friedrich Gauss, Wilhelm Edward Weber, and Steinheil, only because we're talking about Morse code, not the telegraph. The 1865 ITU standard for International Morse code includes several accented letters, symbols for semi-colon, exclamation mark, chevrons and several control codes and both normal and short forms for numbers which merge all the dahs in any digit into a single dah. Many of these codes are not part of the official standard today. I'll point out that over time, experienced telegraph operators learnt to decode dits and dahs based on sound alone, negating the need for paper. This translates directly into how we experience Morse in our hobby today, by tone only. There is a much more detailed explanation on how the telegraph evolved in a book by Russel W. Burns called: "Communications: An International History of the Formative Years". Fair warning, there are many claims and counterclaims, including the possibility that someone else entirely, Harrison Gray Dyar, a Chemist, invented an electrochemical telegraph, using chemically treated paper to make marks, dits and dahs, and demonstrated it between 1826 and 1828 near a race track on Long Island. I'm mentioning this because Samuel Morse is often attributed as the source of all things telegraphy, but the reality appears to be much more nuanced and, unsurprisingly, there are conflicting accounts depending on the source, including acceptance and repudiation that Alfred Vail was the inventor of what we now call Morse code.

END AD---" " No director has done more to deconstruct the myth of the suburban American family than Steven Spielberg. Dissertations have been written and documentaries made on the subject. And now, at the spry young age of 75, Spielberg himself weighs in on where his preoccupations come from in “The Fabelmans,” a personal account of his upbringing that feels like listening to two and a half hours' worth of well-polished cocktail-party anecdotes, only better, since he's gone to the trouble of staging them all for our benefit. Spielberg's a born storyteller, and these are arguably his most precious stories. From the first movie he saw (“The Greatest Show on Earth”) to memories of meeting filmmaker John Ford on the Paramount lot, this endearing, broadly appealing account of how Spielberg was smitten by the medium — and why the prodigy nearly abandoned picture-making before his career even started — holds the keys to so much of the master's filmography. More similar to Woody Allen's autobiographical “Radio Days” than it is to European art films such as “The 400 Blows” and “Amarcord” (the more highbrow models other directors typically point to when re-creating their childhoods), “The Fabelmans” invites audiences into the home and headspace of the world's most beloved living director, an oddly sanitized zone where even the trauma — which includes anti-Semitism, financial disadvantage and divorce — seems to go better with fresh-buttered popcorn. Now, if you've grown up with Spielberg's movies (and who hasn't?), you've surely picked up on certain recurring themes, especially in the way parents relate to their kids. Whether it's an emotionally distant dad letting his family fall apart in “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” or an adult Peter Pan fighting for his children in “Hook,” such bonds clearly matter in Spielberg's on-screen fictions because the same connections broke down in his off-screen reality. Here, the director (with repeat collaborator Tony Kushner helping him to write his first script since 2001's “A.I. Artificial Intelligence”) shares what his own family was like — while allowing room for a certain amount of creative license, of course. Dad is an engineer named Burt (Paul Dano) whose early work in the field of computer science obliges the Fabelmans to move houses multiple times over a few years' time, from New Jersey to Arizona to Northern California. Michelle Williams plays his more emotionally sensitive mother, Mitzi, who could have been a concert pianist, going out of her way to encourage the creative interests of her son Sam (Gabrielle LaBelle). Mitzi is also prone to depression and behavior the young boy can't always understand — but which six decades of introspection and analysis have apparently clarified in his mind. Mom has a similar capacity to psychoanalyze her kids, recognizing how little Sammy (played by Mateo Zoryon Francis-DeFord in the earliest scenes) can't seem to handle a train wreck he witnessed in “The Greatest Show on Earth.” It's all just a movie, of course, but before he can move on, the bo

“I find that when I was a kid I wasn't validated a lot, and I wanted that. I used to internalize that… So I always felt like not having that in my formative years - that validation, that love, that security - it affects me now. So for me, going through therapy and going all the way back… those formative years are really important. The picture, the self-perception, you have as a kid, a lot of that stuff stays with you.” - Muhammad Bilal Ever Forward Club's Ashanti Branch is joined by Muhammad Bilal. Muhammad is an African American filmmaker, actor, and educational consultant from the South Side of Chicago. His film, The Blue Cave, won 22 awards and was accepted into 42 film festivals worldwide in 2021, and it is now airing on Short & Fresh on REVOLT TV. Now in post-production on a new film, Perdido, Muhammad has always demonstrated a high level of compassion and empathy for individuals in their formative years. We are so lucky to have Muhammad on our side, fighting for a kinder, more understanding world through his many talents. (1:55) Ashanti's introduction. (6:30) Muhammad introduces himself and shares some details about his career in film and education. (8:55) Muhammad talks about two of his films, “The Blue Cave” and “Perdido.” And he and Ashanti share their thoughts on police brutality and vicarious trauma. (16:15) Muhammad shares the front of his mask - creative, strategic, successful. (17:00) Ashanti shares the front of his mask - serious, concerned, caring - and he shares some concerns he has for his community in Oakland.

Video game addiction Google that term and you'll get 95 million results -- and the first one is for an addiction treatment center. But is video game addiction really "a thing?" More importantly -- what can parents do if they think their kid's gaming is out of control? Step one, says Chris Ferguson, a psychology professor and co-author of Moral Combat: Why the War on Video Video Games is Wrong, is to figure out if technology & gaming "is really the culprit." Often, video games aren't the cause of obsessive behavior; rather, excessive or obsessive gaming can be a symptom of an underlying issue. Depression, for instance, may be the root cause of obsessive gaming. And if that's the case, taking away a child's phone or video game system is unlikely to lead to positive changes. Instead, the child will become angry and resentful and his depression -- the thing that's fueling his desire for comfort and escape -- remains. To most effectively parent tweens & teens, you have to first identify -- and then question -- your own fears and biases. Are you afraid that playing video video games will turn your son into a school shooter? Take heart -- research to date does not support a link between video game violence & real-world violence. (In fact, school shooters are less likely than their peers to play video games.) It also helps to remember moral panics of the past. (Did the rock music you listened to as a teen turn you into a Satanist? Probably not...) In most cases, parents and children can work together to address problematic gaming. If you need professional help, look for a psychologist or psychiatrist who specializes in working with teenagers. Your child does not need  -- and probably won't benefit from -- working with an addiction specialist. In this episode, Jen, Janet & Chris discuss: Why calling excessive gaming an "addiction" isn't helpful How kids use gaming as a coping mechanism Typical teen development (& how that may influence your son's use of games, and your perception of your son) The link between parenting style, school stress & gaming Why boys choose video gaming over homework & chores Setting rules & boundaries for video games, screen time, homework & household chores Moral panics, music & video games Do video games negatively affect boys' perceptions of women? Realistic expectations for parenting tween & teenage boys Male development (note: guys tend to mature more slowly than their female counterparts) Warning signs of video game "addiction" What to do if you see technology overuse Links we mentioned (or should have) in this episode: Moral Combat: Why the War on Video Video Games is Wrong, by Patrick Markey & Chris Ferguson christopherjferguson.com -- Chris' website How the War on Video Games is Hurting Your Son -- Building Boys post The Link Between Freedom and Video Games -- Building Boys post The First-Time Mom's Guide to Raising Boys: Practical Advice for Your Son's Formative Years, by Jennifer L.W.

Ever wished you had a guide to raising boys? A manual you can consult when your tween son confuses and frustrates you? Now, one exists -- and it's Jen's first book! The First-Time Mom's Guide to Raising Boys: A Practical Guide to Your Son's Formative Years, by Jennifer L.W. Fink, was released on July 6, 2021. It's a handbook that's intended to help moms navigating the tween years (approximately ages 8-12) for the very first time. Janet says Jen "interprets a complex subject in a way that's wise, fun & reassuring." This book helps moms (& dads) understand male development and the challenges boys face in the world, and then teaches them skills and strategies they can use as they parent their tween sons. Listening, Jen says, is key. "If you don't express an openness or willingness to listen to your son's viewpoint, he's not going to listen to yours," she says. "Remember that you have different perspectives. When it comes to social issues, your son does not know what happened 20, 30, 50, 100 years before he was born. So you have important perspective that you can share with him. But at the same time, you don't know what his daily experience is like. You don't fully understand what's happening in schools, what it's like to be a kid today. If you can remain open and curious to each other's perspective, you can learn from each other." In this episode, Jen & Janet discuss: The unique skillset required to parent boys Why the tween years are so challenging for moms "Unlearning" parenting How our childhood experiences affect our parenting Talking about tough subjects with your son, including divorce, relationship conflict, addiction, mental illness, racism & violence The importance of intergenerational relationships Prioritizing mental health When to worry Boys' experience of shame & embarrassment Helping a boy expressing self-hatred Preparing boys to handle sexual pressure Links we mentioned (or should have) in this episode: The First-Time Mom's Guide to Raising Boys -- Jen's first book Top 6 Tips for Parenting Tween Boys -- classic BuildingBoys post The Inside Scoop on Parenting Tween Boys -- a very early conversation between Jen & Janet Parenting Teen Boys Is... -- Building Boys post that includes the deodorant-in-freezer pic mentioned at 7:08 Addiction Inoculation with Jessica Lahey -- ON BOYS episode mentioned at 15:42 How to Raise a Feminist Son with Sonora Jha -- ON BOYS episode mentioned at 17:23

Ruben has devoted most of his time as a coach teaching sports. He even joined and ventured in helping kids from government tenement housing. Challenges were there but he persisted in helping transform their lives. PJ discovered his talent in becoming the voice behind many radio commercials and hosting events. Yet despite their schedules, they joined and became mentors in Go Negosyo. #BUK #BeOkay #CoachOnTheGo #WinandLearnTogether #PapaPeej --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/armando-bartolome5/support

Oh Lord Bless this mess. We laughed so much recording this episode. We discuss the art of storytelling and how it is so important for family, community, and even mental health. Telling stories goes back to the beginning of human civilizations but in our fast-paced world we forget to sit down and reminisce and tell stories about our lives. We tell very short stories on social media but we do not take the time to really get to know one another or learn about their past or the stories of their families. This week we tell stories. Many are embarrassing and hilarious and we hope you laugh as much as we did. We encourage families to tell their children the stories of their childhood and adolescent hood. Start small and who knows you may be laughing for hours and hours creating family memories that will one day be told in the form of a story. Thank you for listening!

We didn't have time to record an episode last week, so enjoy this episode from the archives! This episode was the pilot of The Formative Years and shows our original vision for the podcast. Dan has been begging to release this episode and it is finally seeing the light of day!

In this episode, we have a great chat with Marty Vids, an entrepreneur, mentor and podcast host, about building rapport, empowering customers and owning your job.   Marty has had quite the eclectic career and life, having started out in his parent's milk bar as a kid, and then moving into the comedy scene as an MC. He has a few great stories from that past life, that's for sure!   A career change beckoned and he landed up at Westpac as a mortgage broker, before leaving that to co-found Mortgage First, which he sold in his mid-30s. But the itch to build another business didn't go away, and he started Mortgage 500, a company he eventually sold in 2016.   These days, Marty is also a mentor, life coach, MC, and hosts his own podcast, The Marty Vids Show.   You can connect with Marty Vids on LinkedIn.   Key Quotes from Marty   On his Formative Years... My early days really were a place of work. I would go in with my dad even on a Sunday and help him collect the newspapers and I'd be serving clients probably from the age of around six or seven. From a very young age, I was developing social skills, emotional intelligence skills, but also financial skills.   On what comedy taught him about building rapport... One of the projects I did was run a comedy night because I always loved stand-up comedy. I brought that to my country town and I brought in the audience; I'd go to all the shops and say I was running it, I went on local radio. I really went into that promotion phase but I was doing too much, I didn't delegate. I was MC-ing the night, I arranged the comedians, got all the audience in, and I had my mates helping me. This guy comes on a bucks night and I was last on stage as the main act and he was just ... Their party was giving each comedian hell and I'm thinking, "What am I gonna do? I can't get on this guy's bad side because they're just gonna come up on stage and actually kill me.” I had to think on my feet, but I got him on stage, we skulled a beer together and I said, “Congratulations mate, your life is officially over as of this moment,” and I got them onside and they were the best audience after that. It didn't matter what I said. I think that's the sort of thing you go, "How do I build rapport in a situation that's very challenging?" You think about that in business negotiation, I mean that's an extreme story there, but it's like how do you build rapport when something's not going well and be able to shift direction? There's a big difference between agreement and unconscious rapport. How you can tell - and why this is important - is you can pick the body language. If they're in a similar body stance to you, like let's say you have your arms crossed and they have their arms crossed, people might misinterpret that as just two people that are cold. But what you're looking for is to get physical rapport and that will show up in the body. If someone makes a move like let's say someone moves their right hand and puts it up to their chin, you don't do it simultaneously, but you give it about 15 seconds and then you manoeuvre into that same position while you're having the discussion. What you're looking for on an unconscious and physical level is whether they break that rapport. If someone is very auditory rather than visual, you can speak to them with your body posture to the side, not facing them, because that's too impactful for them when you're right in their face. Other people are very kinesthetic where they like to be in each other's face and are more sensitive. It's not a fake thing, it's good communication and really allowing them to converse with you in a way that's comfortable for them.   On effective leadership... I found that the managers that were more light-hearted and you could engage with, you could really learn from. So you'd have the dictatorial types that you're more fearful of, but they were never as engaging and never got as good a result as the people that were structured but also had this light-heartedness, and were able to mentor and engage you beyond the transaction they wanted you to get for them and the bank. They would think through a problem and then come to me with their thoughts around it, so I could then provide additions to it or steer them in a direction that was more beneficial.   On career drifting to having an ownership mentality... Andy Meikle, who's an ironman who competed against Trevor Hendy, came in and gave a speech at Westpac. I'm not sure if I was the only one listening, but he was saying about people finishing seventh in life and floating through the corporate system, and really looking at taking your role, taking responsibility for your role as a business owner and as an owner of that role. That shifted my whole perspective on just having a job, as opposed to going, "Well, how can I be a leader within my job?" I started to come in early. I started to realise the top performers would come in early, they'd go and see clients, and in the afternoon they would leave fairly early to go and see more clients. I started to really tap into the people that were doing well and started modelling what they were doing and I was fortunate I had three job promotions within a six month period and pretty much doubled my salary in that time from someone that was floating.   On how to make the leap from employee to business owner... We kept getting pulled towards the move. We had good jobs, we were earning good incomes, we were 29 years old, going places within the bank. But this just kept calling out to us. One of the things I'd say that we did that helped us a lot, was we gave ourselves six months of income in order to make sure that when we started the business, we weren't in financial distress from day one. This was really important. Some people say, "Look you gotta jump off the cliff." And yes, that's right, you gotta jump off the cliff in your mind, but I think it's more savvy to have a parachute on the way down, because it's not going to end as badly.   On the lessons of his first business, Mortgage First... We saw an opportunity in the broking market where we could empower clients to really take control of their financial circumstances and save them money on their mortgages. When we were in the bank, we were always encouraged to really get the most profit in regards to the products we were selling. Philosophically, I struggled with that a little bit because I go, "Yes, it might have created great revenue, but here was a better product given how we could serve the client." And what I recognised by giving that better product was I would get more and more clients.   Did I stuff up? Of course, but I was always honest and said I think I've done something wrong here, wasn't intentional, how can I rectify, because I was hungry to keep learning. It's really important to have that authenticity and be humble when you don't know something and ask the question.   The rest of the market saw a broker as somewhere you go where you can't get money from the banks. We saw this as a relationship management role. We saw this as encouraging the clients to understand the system, keep it simple, empower them with choice. We came from an education-based marketing platform of giving up our time, because we could never compete with the banks on marketing. What we did was a momentum build. When we did the accountant's loan, then guess what? He got so much benefit out of it, he would tell his clients. When we did the real estate agent's loan, they would tell anyone they dealt with. We really got ourselves out there, talking to people. We'd hand out three business cards a day. We said we never wanted to do that from a point of view of just handing out free business cards; we wanted to have conversations so people would ask us for our business card. That was always our theory. How can we provide value and connect with people so they asked us what we do. And that's how we started and we built momentum and that turned into something that we were even surprised it turned into!   On wellbeing as a business owner... What we didn't do is look after ourselves well enough. We were running so hard for so long and even in the bank, we were running really, really hard to get our careers going. We got really tired and we really should've delegated roles and done that more effectively.   On the pitfalls of selling a business... We thought we got offered the cheque of a lifetime. We had a team of about 14 people and we really developed a fantastic culture and we thought when that opportunity arrived to get that cheque, Craig and I looked at each other and went, "Well, we might never see this again in our lives." For two country boys, this was a big moment and we decided to take it because we thought it would have a real impact in our lives. But you know what? At the end of the day, money is an interesting thing, because what I love was the people in the business. I loved the clients, I loved the culture, I loved the innovation. We got the money and I went, but it felt so numb afterwards because this was our baby. Because I wasn't feeling as well as I had been and I missed the business, I made some financial decisions and invested in things I would never have invested in because of my usual structures.   On taking these lessons into a new business... The second business was a lot better because I really knew who I was within that business and the circumstances around that was all different. But it came from a place of real joy, where I think the first business still was me needing to prove my value, which comes back to not being very good at school! Our clients were our best sales force. They loved what we did and they just kept driving opportunities to us because we were looking after them.   On how to get a pay rise the right way... I would never go to my manager and say, "I want a pay rise." I would go to my manager and say, "Here's the ideas I have for my role. Here's how I'm going to generate more business. This is the value I'm going to add to the client base. This what I think I could bring to the team." I always instigated this within our own businesses. When people came in and said, "I want a pay rise." I was very quick to ask, “Why do you want a pay rise, because you're 70% of target at the moment!” “Oh, we want to start a family.” “Alright. Fantastic. Let's now work on a plan in order to enable you to achieve the results, so I can give you this pay rise.” I wanted to work with them to really instil this sense of confidence and leadership and a call to action in order to then really feel great about their pay rise. In doing that, I said, "Alright we'll increase your pay by $10,000 and work on this vision in the next six months and achieve it."   Marty's final message of wisdom and hope... I think sometimes it's just important to listen. I think very much we want to jump in with what we know a lot of the times, but sometimes when someone says something to you when they're under challenge, just listen and when they're finished say, “Thank you,” and then you can work on a response and a solution to it. I would say as managers, that's something I've learnt over time; just being really appreciative of when people are being vulnerable.   Resources mentioned in the episode: Book recommendation: Simplified: Leadership is Simple.
