How do you find peace daily? What keeps you going in hard times? Today, Jay sits down with Madonna for a rare and intimate conversation that goes beyond her iconic career into the spiritual foundation that has carried her through life’s greatest challenges. For nearly 30 years, Madonna has walked a spiritual path that has shaped her resilience, fueled her creativity, and defined her sense of purpose. Madonna opens up about what first drew her to seek deeper meaning, the practices that became her lifeline, and why she believes spirituality has been the true key to her strength, longevity, and fulfillment. Together, Jay and Madonna dive into themes of transformation, the search for meaning in suffering, the freedom that comes with radical acceptance, and the power of forgiveness to heal our deepest wounds. Madonna shares the moments that tested her most, from loss and betrayal to near-death experiences, and how each challenge became an opening for growth when she chose to see it through the lens of purpose rather than punishment. In the second half of the conversation, Jay and Madonna are joined by her longtime Kabbalah teacher, Eitan, for a powerful exploration of spiritual wisdom in action. They discuss why our struggles and inner battles are essential for growth, and how to reframe challenges as opportunities to reveal greater light. Eitan offers practical tools, from pausing and embracing discomfort to practicing “certainty beyond logic,” to help us find strength in life’s most difficult moments. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Build a Spiritual Practice How to Find Meaning in Suffering How to Escape the Victim Mentality How to Practice Radical Acceptance How to Forgive and Let Go How to Manifest with Consciousness How to Teach Kids Spiritual Awareness How to Stop Comparing Yourself to Others How to Discover Your Soul’s Purpose Every one of us will face moments of doubt, loss, or uncertainty, but those moments are not the end of our story, they are invitations to grow into something greater.

Wayne Shepherd talks with Jonathon Seidl about his alcohol addiction and the transforming power of Jesus to deliver him daily from his addictive behavior.  (click for more...)Website and book:  https://www.jonseidl.com  Confessions of a Christian AlcoholicKey ThemesGod only uses sinners: Jonathon emphasizes that aside from Jesus, everyone God uses is imperfect.Shame and vulnerability: He initially resisted going public with his alcoholism due to fear of judgment in Christian circles.Sobriety journey: Now over two years sober; life is richer, though not easier. Alcohol wasn't the problem but the solution he used to escape deeper issues.Root Issues & Turning PointAlcoholism tied to childhood wounds of rejection and abandonment.Turning point came on an anniversary trip where his wife confronted him—she wanted him to address why he drank, not just stop drinking.Four Steps to Break FreeAbiding in Christ – Developing an experiential, daily walk with Jesus (scripture, journaling, stillness).Finding true identity – Seeing oneself in Christ, not in addiction or failure.Radical vulnerability – Going beyond surface-level honesty, sharing deeply with trusted biblical community.Obedience – Trusting and following God's direction, even when it feels small or uncomfortable.Supports & SafeguardsWeekly Christian therapy (counselor Gina) helped uncover root causes.Biblical community and small group provided accountability and openness.Close sobriety group (texts/emails) for immediate honesty when tempted.Practices radical vulnerability—naming struggles before they escalate.Broader LessonsAddiction often stems from escapism, not just the substance.Messy sanctification: the Christian journey involves ongoing struggles, not just “minor sins.”Scripture shows God working through deeply flawed people (David, Abraham, etc.).Encouragement: there is room in the church for imperfect stories and God's redemption.Aims to help others struggling with addiction, break stigma, and point to biblical hope.NEXT WEEK:  Ken Isaacs, Samaritan's Purse Send your support for FIRST PERSON to the Far East Broadcasting Company:FEBC National Processing Center Far East Broadcasting CompanyP.O.

Think your LinkedIn profile is just a digital CV? Think again. In this eye‐opening conversation with Louise Brogan (Founder, Brogan Partners; LinkedIn: Louise Brogan Ltd. – Video Content Marketing) LinkedIn UK, author of Raise your Visibility on LinkedIn, we uncover the strategic approach that transformed her business from a failing craft shop to a thriving LinkedIn consultancy serving global clients.Louise breaks down her four‐stage system for LinkedIn success that goes far beyond basic profile tips. She explains why your headline should communicate value rather than just your job title, how your “About” section should focus on helping potential clients (not showcasing your achievements), and why the often‐overlooked “Featured” section might be your most powerful conversion tool.What's particularly fascinating is Louise's approach to networking and selling on the platform. Rather than connecting with everyone who sends a request, she maintains a carefully curated network of relevant contacts. “It's so much better to have a network of people who are interested in what you have to say,” she explains, comparing LinkedIn to an in-person industry conference where strategic connections and thoughtful conversations lead to business opportunities.Perhaps most surprising is Louise's revelation about YouTube's role in her business growth. With 110,000 subscribers watching her short, targeted LinkedIn tutorials, she's built a powerful lead generation engine that funnels prospects to her consulting services. “I have 3.3 million views on YouTube,” she shares, “and I have less than 16,000 followers on LinkedIn.”Whether you're a marketing professional looking to build thought leadership, a business owner seeking quality leads, or simply tired of getting spammy connection requests, Louise's practical advice will transform how you approach LinkedIn. Stop wasting time on random connections and irrelevant content – start treating LinkedIn as the powerful business development tool it can be.Ready to raise your visibility and start meaningful conversations that actually lead to business?
