IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC PODFEST AND ARTS MARKET This is a one  -  day music festival and arts market that will take place on Sunday, March 8, 2026 at The Lost Druid Brewery in Avondale Estates, GA, 15 minutes from downtown Atlanta. There are four bands performing at the festival. I am performing one show solo and one show with May Will Bloom, where my daughter takes the lead. Kinnfolk will join us as well as I mentioned last week. But the final band performing at the festival is a 3  -  piece version of The Muckers, our local Celtic punk band. That will complete our lineup. Follow our event page on Facebook for more details. Or Follow us for Free on our Patreon page. Now my next goal is to raise $2500 so that all of the bands are paid a decent wage and to promote our first  -  ever Celtic festival. To that end, I added three new rewards for Kickstarter. Each is a chance to sponsor individual bands at the festival. When you do, you'll get one of the first album pins from each of these amazing Celtic bands. That's because we are highlighting album pins at the festival as well, as another means to promote the music of bands. Our album pins are wooden lapel pins themed to a particular album released by a band. The buyer gets a digital download of the album, then they can wear their album! There's just 8 days left on this Kickstarter. So please make a pledge to support Celtic culture through music. THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST! Because of you, this podcast exists.

Happy St Brigit's day! This year's celebration of Ireland's most beloved female icon comes a bit earlier to the podcast, but keep tuned as we have prepared a surprise for you to be published this Friday!This week we are joined by the amazing linguist and historian Jean-Michel Picard, Professor Emeritus at University College Dublin, whose work has inspired generations of scholars studying medieval Ireland and Irish saints. In this episode, Prof. Picard tells us all about the transmission of the cult of St Brigit to the Continent, the various sources containing a wealth of information about the saint. Prof. Picard also shares the difficulties of tracking down manuscripts when the internet was still in its infancy and offers us a glimpse of medieval Irish scholarship in Ireland in the 1980s.

There is a lot of all-or-nothing approaches in the health community on social media and I've noticed that the nuanced conversation around alcohol consumption is no exception. In this episode I talk about what alcohol gets converted into as it travels through our body, how it affects the gut and liver, alcohol's effects on our brain, and how the two enzymes that we use to metabolize it are dependent upon NAD+. I focus primarily on a multitude of solutions that vary in cost: why I prefer niacinamide to raise NAD, the study that showed how inhaling controlled amounts of carbon dioxide can increase alcohol clearance threefold, the complex relationship between alcohol and melatonin and why I don't agree with all of the internet articles saying to not mix them, how ascorbic acid/vitamin C mitigates many of the effects of alcohol including the changes in brain chemistry, the role of vitamin E in protecting from alcohol consumption, my favorite electrolytes to take before and after drinking, and the genetically modified bacteria shot I take everytime I drink, and why I love the Botanist dry gin.

Some seasons feel beautiful. Others feel brutal.The hardest part is realizing you can't fast-forward your life.In Ecclesiastes 3, Solomon reminds us there is a time for everything—and God is not absent in the waiting, the loss, the change, or the unknown. In this message from A Wild, Messy, Beautiful Life, we talk about learning how to live where you are, trust God with your timing, and believe that He really can “make everything beautiful in its time.”If you're in a season you didn't choose… this sermon is for you.1 For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:2 a time to be born, and a time to die;a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;3 a time to kill, and a time to heal;a time to break down, and a time to build up;4 a time to weep, and a time to laugh;a time to mourn, and a time to dance;5 a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;6 a time to seek, and a time to lose;a time to keep, and a time to cast away;7 a time to tear, and a time to sew;a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;8 a time to love, and a time to hate;a time for war, and a time for peace.9 What gain has the worker from his toil? 10 I have seen the business that God has given to the children of man to be busy with. 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man's heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. 12 I perceived that there is nothing better for them than to be joyful and to do good as long as they live; 13 also that everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil—this is God's gift to man.Ecclesiastes 3:1-13We'd love for you to subscribe to our channel and turn on notifications to get updates on our latest content and resources that will help more people know Jesus and people know Jesus more.GIVE : We believe that generosity is golden.

After three decades working to deliver easy, fast and cost-effective patient experiences through technology, Ryan Howells is more optimistic about the future than he's ever been before.At a time when healthcare has been at the center of polarizing and partisan politics, Ryan is focused on an area foundational to digital health that he says draws consensus across party lines: data exchange and interoperability. Freely moving data can unlock innovation in technology, payment models, and regulation to make healthcare work better for everyone, and Ryan is extremely encouraged by the openness to ideas and volume of activity he's seeing from the second Trump Administration in these areas.As Principal at Leavitt Partners since 2015, Ryan collaborates with the private sector, the White House, Congress, HHS, and the VHA to improve health care nationwide. For the past ten years, he has also led the CARIN Alliance, a bi-partisan, multi-sector alliance uniting industry leaders to advance the adoption of consumer-directed exchange across the U.S.In January 2023, Ryan joined Keith Figlioli on the podcast to discuss the myriad of new possibilities emerging in healthcare as a result of better access to data. In this episode, he recounts the progress and obstacles since that conversation, but more importantly, helps unpack the flurry of new activity.Topics Ryan and Keith covered include:ACCESS & TEMPO. These are the latest examples of two new government programs that Ryan believes will remove barriers to innovation. ACCESS is a CMS initiative that now makes it possible for technology companies to bill Medicare directly for digital health services – and get paid only when patients achieve specific, measurable clinical outcomes. Ryan explains how ACCESS is a breakthrough for transparency and has the potential to change contracting for digital health vendors as health system may now ask to share risk. TEMPO is a program from the FDA that complements ACCESS by allowing participating companies to bypass traditional device clearance processes through “enforcement discretion,” provided they share real time data with the FDA. Ryan explains how this oversight lowers cost and complexity for startups and accelerates the path to market for new digital health solutions.Removing administrative roadblocks. In early 2025, Ryan's team at Leavitt Partners published a paper titled, “Kill the Clipboard” that offered recommendations to cut administrative costs, lower the burden on consumers and providers, and modernize the health care data exchange ecosystem. Ryan discussed recommendations like the need for stronger enforcement of information blocking rules and suggestions for the government to change its certification program to focus on APIs, versus functionality of EHRs. He explained how these things would allow health systems to control their own data, build cloud-based workflows, and integrate with payers and innovative companies more easily.Linchpins for data liquidity. Ryan believes that achieving true data liquidity in healthcare requires three foundational elements: a cloud-based data store, an API endpoint, and robust digital identity credentials. With these in place, he says organizations can exchange data securely and efficiently, supporting everything from public health to quality measurement and pharmacy exchange. He says these are the linchpins to finally achieve the data liquidity needed for innovation, interoperability, and improved patient outcomes.To hear Ryan and Keith discuss these topics and more, listen to this episode of Healthcare is Hard: A Podcast for

Ecclesiastes 2 gives language to what many of us feel but rarely say out loud: You can have everything you wanted and still feel unsatisfied.In this message from A Wild, Messy, Beautiful Life, we look at Solomon's honest search for meaning—and discover why joy was never meant to be found in achievement alone.In Ecclesiastes 2, Solomon runs the experiment we're all living—pleasure, achievement, and nonstop effort—and calls it what it is: a chasing after the wind.Ecclesiastes 21 I said in my heart, “Come now, I will test you with pleasure; enjoy yourself.” But behold, this also was vanity. 2 I said of laughter, “It is mad,” and of pleasure, “What use is it?” 3 I searched with my heart how to cheer my body with wine—my heart still guiding me with wisdom—and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was good for the children of man to do under heaven during the few days of their life. 4 I made great works. I built houses and planted vineyards for myself. 5 I made myself gardens and parks, and planted in them all kinds of fruit trees. 6 I made myself pools from which to water the forest of growing trees. 7 I bought male and female slaves, and had slaves who were born in my house. I had also great possessions of herds and flocks, more than any who had been before me in Jerusalem. 8 I also gathered for myself silver and gold and the treasure of kings and provinces. I got singers, both men and women, and many concubines, the delight of the sons of man.9 So I became great and surpassed all who were before me in Jerusalem. Also my wisdom remained with me. 10 And whatever my eyes desired I did not keep from them. I kept my heart from no pleasure, for my heart found pleasure in all my toil, and this was my reward for all my toil. 11 Then I considered all that my hands had done and the toil I had expended in doing it, and behold, all was vanity and a striving after wind, and there was nothing to be gained under the sun...24 There is nothing better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil. This also, Ix saw, is from the hand of God, 25 for apart from him who can eat or who can have enjoyment? 26 For to the one who pleases him God has given wisdom and knowledge and joy, but to the sinner he has given the business of gathering and collecting, only to give to one who pleases God. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.We'd love for you to subscribe to our channel and turn on notifications to get updates on our latest content and resources that will help more people know Jesus and people know Jesus more.GIVE : We believe that generosity is golden.

Send us a textIn this episode (339), we examine Hebrews 5: 11–6: 3, where the author pauses his teaching on Christ's high priesthood to deliver a loving rebuke: the believers have become "dull of hearing" from spiritual laziness and comfort, still needing milk when they should be on solid food and teaching others. Exploring what true discipleship means—entering the School of Christ, total surrender, making disciples, and living for Him—we're challenged to leave elementary foundations behind, grow in grace, excel still more, and pursue maturity through discipline, applying God's living Word, and fellowship. Avoid stagnation; embrace the vibrant, purposeful life Christ calls us to!Appreciate this content?

Christmas is the story of grace, an invitation to a seat at God's table. Freely given and full of hope.

Isaiah 55:1-13

In our previous video, we left with a beautiful image of jumping on the bed for 1 ½ hours straight.  Today, we have another vision worth considering: "Offer yourself freely to God."God does not compel belief.  He offers us the opportunity to offer ourselves. If we do so, on the day of His power and wrath, we will find ourselves jumping on the bed. Watch. Share. Enjoy. https://youtu.be/bGeqM4J14DM

Central to the Christmas Story is the arrival of the Munus Triplex, a theological term referring to Jesus's three roles: The Prophet who reveals, The Priest who reconciles, King who reigns. Having this view of Jesus changes everything for how we see the Christmas Story.In this sermon, Pastor Joe Baker unpacks the compassion, love, shepherd Heard of our Holy Priest forever -- Jesus. Not only is Jesus our great high priest who is able to care for our hearts in a way only He can, he calls us to be His priests here on Earth to usher in His Kingdom and dominion.

There is this enthrall and intrigue in our culture with royalty. Show after show, movie after movie is made to satisfy our fascination with kings.There is a longing in the human heart for a king.We search high and low to crown some one or some thing king over our life but the problem is that often we pick the wrong one.Only Jesus, will be a true King that will satisfy every desire of your heart and lead you into life everlasting in this life and the next. 1 The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers, 3 and Judah the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, and Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram, 4 and Ram the father of Amminadab, and Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon, 5 and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse, 6 and Jesse the father of David the king.And David was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uriah, 7 and Solomon the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asaph, 8 and Asaph the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah, 9 and Uzziah the father of Jotham, and Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah, 10 and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, and Manasseh the father of Amos, and Amos the father of Josiah, 11 and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.12 And after the deportation to Babylon: Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel, 13 and Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, and Abiud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor, 14 and Azor the father of Zadok, and Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud, 15 and Eliud the father of Eleazar, and Eleazar the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob, 16 and Jacob the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called Christ.17 So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ fourteen generations.8 Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit. 19 And her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly. 20 But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.” 22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet:23 “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel”(which means, God with us).

Send us a textIn this episode of Missions Incorporated, host Jesse Schreck dives into the challenges and principles of biblical church planting in Italy and Europe today. Exploring the "church planting dilemma," he contrasts pragmatic, results-driven approaches—often marked by shortcuts and "dumbing down" doctrine—with the patient, sovereign work of God seen in apostolic times. Drawing from historical insights, Scripture (including Acts 20:24-27), and on-the-ground realities in places like Venice, Jesse emphasizes the need for autonomous, financially independent local churches led by qualified pastors, while critiquing external dependencies and hasty methods. The discussion highlights Italy's spiritual landscape, the role of the state and historical influences like Roman Catholicism, and why long-term, foundational discipleship is essential for lasting gospel impact. Includes ministry updates, newsletter mentions, and invitations to join short-term cohorts at practicalmissions.org. A call to grow in knowledge of biblical missions and faithfully proclaim the kingdom of God.Appreciate this content?

This year at Advent, we're looking at the arrival of what the theologians call the munis triplex -- the long awaited, highly anticipated, eagerly longed for prophet, priest and King.In this season. I want for you to see that Jesus, the prophet, priest, and king, makes the whole of scripture and life clear. He is what you've been waiting for and didn't even know you're waiting for. Core to discipleship to Jesus is to begin to see Him not just as 6 pound, nine ounce baby Jesus in the manger. But for you to see him as the Prophet who reveals, the priest who reconciles, and the king who reigns.

Pressure, perfectionism, and overthinking—three traits that quietly sabotage golfers chasing freedom on the course. In this conversation, Andrew Reynolds, cognitive performance coach and founder of The COG Coach, breaks down what it truly means to play with freedom—and why most golfers never achieve it. He shares how to design practice that mirrors real pressure, add consequence to every rep, and build process-driven routines that hold up when the stakes rise. We explore the hidden cost of mental fatigue, how to protect cognitive energy over 18 holes, and the psychological "skill-development lag" that frustrates so many golfers chasing progress. Andrew also explains the three-step framework to reframe destructive self-talk, find safety in discomfort, and make your best golf automatic under pressure—whether you're grinding for your first club championship or a tour card. In this episode, you'll learn: What "playing with freedom" actually means—and how to create it on demand How to add consequence to practice so it transfers under pressure The accountability hacks that keep you in the hard reps (where skill grows) A simple blueprint for durable pre-shot and pre-round routines How to spot and reframe irrational self-talk in real time Managing cognitive energy and decision fatigue across 18 holes Why process beats results—and how to believe it when scores matter Get your pencils ready and start listening.  P.S. Curious to learn more about the results my clients are experiencing and what they say about working with me? Read more here. More About Andrew Reynolds Andrew Reynolds is a Cognitive Performance Coach based in the UK.

Add consequence: Games with "must-complete" tasks (e.g., 3 fairways in a row) simulate tournament feels. Quality beats quantity: Short, intense, focused sessions > marathon ball-beating. Protect cognitive energy: Strong routines reduce decision fatigue and steady your state under stress. Reframe the story: Emotions come from interpretation; catch absolutes ("always/never") and replace them with rational truth. Calibrate emotion: Even "negative" emotions can be adaptive when properly dialed. Detach from score: Commit to the shot in front of you; outcome improves as a byproduct. Key Quotes: "Make practice look like the golf course, not the course look like practice." "Consequence is the fastest way to simulate pressure." "The hard, uncomfortable reps are where skill is actually built." "Pick a target, visualize, commit—that's the billboard I'd put on every tee." "It's not the first tee that makes you anxious; it's the story you tell yourself about it." "Process is part of outcome—not something separate from it." "There's a skill-development lag: keep going through it instead of restarting with a new method."

We are shattering the stereotype that church is supposed to be boring. We are defiantly opposed to a form of religion that is exhausting. We are creating a culture where we understand the father heart of God, where we have childlike faith, think fun is fun, a middle laugh till it hurts, adventure into the unknown, rest well, become cheerful givers and see it as the great joy of our life.Many of us have this view that God is angry and just wants us to be sad and read our Bibles, but this could not be further from the truth. God is the happiest being in the universe. Jesus personifies joy. Jesus was a known partier. That's why oftentimes he is accused of being a glutton, a drunkard, and a sinner because he's constantly hanging out in these environments.The vision that Jesus has for what's on the other side of abiding with Him is joy.And all the people gathered as one man into the square before the Water Gate. And they told Ezra the scribe to bring the Book of the Law of Moses that the Lord had commanded Israel. 2 So Ezra the priest brought the Law before the assembly, both men and women and all who could understand what they heard, on the first day of the seventh month. 3 And he read from it facing the square before the Water Gate from early morning until midday, in the presence of the men and the women and those who could understand. And the ears of all the people were attentive to the Book of the Law. 4 And Ezra the scribe stood on a wooden platform that they had made for the purpose. And beside him stood Mattithiah, Shema, Anaiah, Uriah, Hilkiah, and Maaseiah on his right hand, and Pedaiah, Mishael, Malchijah, Hashum, Hashbaddanah, Zechariah, and Meshullam on his left hand. 5 And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people, for he was above all the people, and as he opened it all the people stood. 6 And Ezra blessed the Lord, the great God, and all the people answered, “Amen, Amen,” lifting up their hands. And they bowed their heads and worshiped the Lord with their faces to the ground. 7 Also Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, the Levites, helped the people to understand the Law, while the people remained in their places. 8 They read from the book, from the Law of God, clearly, and they gave the sense, so that the people understood the reading.This Day Is Holy9 And Nehemiah, who was the governor, and Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people, “This day is holy to the Lord your God; do not mourn or weep.” For all the people wept as they heard the words of the Law. 10 Then he said to them, “Go your way. Eat the fat and drink sweet wine and send portions to anyone who has nothing ready, for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be grieved, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.” 11 So the Levites calmed all the people, saying, “Be quiet, for this day is holy; do not be grieved.” 12 And all the people went their way to eat and drink and to send portions and to make great rejoicing, because they had understood the words that were declared to them.Nehemiah 8:1-12We'd love for you to subscribe to our channel and turn on notifications to get updates on our latest content and resources that will help more people know Jesus and people know Jesus more.GIVE : We believe that generosity is golden.

In today's episode, I and Lorna take a deep dive into one of the most emotionally charged struggles riders face: caring too much about what other people, especially trainers, think. A listener asks how to move on from a negative trainer experience in the past that still affects her riding years later. And that's where this episode gets powerful. I and Lorna unpack: Why your mind holds onto old memories How past criticism can shape your confidence today And most importantly, how to change the emotional impact of those memories so they stop controlling you You'll learn the exact process Lorna uses with clients to release old judgments, shift the “submodalities” of a memory, and take back control of how you feel. This episode isn't just helpful, it's transformational. If old comments, past trainers, or past mistakes still hold space in your mind… this one is for you. Tools & Techniques You'll Learn: How to alter visual “sub-modalities” (size, color, distance, speed) How to reduce the emotional charge of a memory Auditory techniques to silence or soften a trainer's voice Kinesthetic tools to remove unwanted tension from the body The simple but powerful act of disassociating to reduce overwhelm Anchoring a new emotional state to replace the old one (And yes, I literally walk through an example with my own memory; you'll learn a lot just listening to the process.) Quotes Worth Remembering: “You created the memory, that means you can also change it.” “You're not changing the past. You're changing the emotional meaning of it.” “Disassociate, change the picture, remove the feeling, and suddenly the memory loses its power.” “The moment you shift the sub-modalities, the memory cannot stay the same.” Resources Mentioned:

Presented by Lauren Stibgen The worldview of a servant leader is someone who empowers others. Basically, giving someone the power to do something. Jesus empowered his disciples, and he empowers us today! Jesus was all powerful. We see it time and time again in the miracles he performed in the gospels—water to wine, healing the sick and raising the dead! Jesus rebuked demonic spirits. In Matthew 10, Jesus sends out the twelve disciples. These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans. Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel. As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.' Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give” (Matthew 10:5-8). Can you imagine how these twelve men felt? The things they had seen Jesus do, they were being empowered to do! Personally, I would be invigorated and terrified all at the same time! How can you empower others? Sometimes this can be as simple as being a good encourager when you see someone trying something new or struggling when they are stuck. Your words give them power to do something! Your words of encouragement may be the extra fuel they need to not feel scared of the next step they need to take. Think about someone who has been looking for work. They apply and apply, maybe even interview and are discouraged and tired. Your encouragement can empower them to keep applying and not lose hope! Perhaps the empowerment is more literal. You are empowering a subordinate or colleague to try something new—something they have seen you do time and time again, just like Jesus did with his disciples! Is it preparing and presenting materials to a board of directors? Perhaps it is taking ownership of opening or closing during a shift. Either way, you are serving them by releasing your power and allowing them to do something they would not otherwise have an opportunity to do! Think of when this has happened for you. Is there a specific time you can recount? This isn't only for those just starting out in a career. It is a lifelong journey! I think of how Mary Lowman and Julie Busteed have empowered me through both giving me the power to do something new at The Christian Working Woman and their ongoing encouragement to me! I have been working for a long time. Don't lose sight. There are opportunities for you to be a servant leader through empowering someone around you today!

This is the prettiest study I've ever put together. Initially it was my most expensive, but I've had so many people pour into me this year. I want to give it to you for free! DOWNLOAD HERE!! I hope that you will choose to give to others too by not keeping it to yourself, but sharing it with someone else who would love to be nourished in the word of God also! "Freely you have received, freely give!"

This Scripture meditation on Matthew 5:14–16 uses the lectio divina model to help you pause, breathe, and listen for God’s voice. Step 12 of the 12 Steps invites us to live out the hope and healing we’ve received and to share it with others. It says, Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to others and to practice these principles in all our affairs. When we experience the transforming grace of Jesus, the natural response is to let it overflow and share it with others. Or as Jesus said, “Freely you received, freely give.” In this meditation, we’ll reflect on Jesus’ words from the Sermon on the Mount, where He calls His followers the light of the world. Even the smallest light can break through darkness, and God’s invitation is simply to shine the light He has already placed within you. As you listen, you’ll be invited to: Reflect on what it means to be a light in the world. Notice how God may be calling you to share His hope and love. Rest in the truth that your light is enough, because it comes from Him. Take a deep breath, quiet your heart, and let Matthew 5 guide you into God’s presence.

Young people are not just the Church of tomorrow, they are the Church of Today.In today's message, Pastor Joey McLaughlin preaches about the importance of the "now generation" -- how young people are not just the next generation of Church leaders and disciples, but now.

In this powerful episode, John shares the unforgettable story of Dr. Goodluck, a man born into extreme poverty in Tanzania whose life was transformed by a single act of generosity—a sponsorship through Compassion International. Today, Dr. Goodluck is a heart and brain surgeon who returned to serve at the very hospital where he nearly died as a child. His story will move you and challenge you. Because real gratitude doesn't stop at “thank you”; it rolls up its sleeves and asks, “How can I join in?” Learn how Jesus sparked a revolution of generosity and how your gratitude can become someone else's breakthrough. Freely you have received… now freely give.

Our church is the kind of community whose aim is to see it in Atlanta as it is in Heaven.So what does that mean? How? How are we going to get heaven here and now?Ipon a thorough examination of the scriptures, that ideology does not seem to be the main message of Jesus. It does not seem to be the vision of the Bible.More than Jesus wants to get us to heaven He wants to get heaven into us.God wants to re-colonize Earth. He wants to reclaim Earth, redeem Earth, renew Earth, restore Earth with the kingdom of Heaven. What Jesus talked about most, what he talked about more than anything else, more than he talked about salvation, He talked about this thing called the kingdom of heaven or the kingdom of God.We'd love for you to subscribe to our channel and turn on notifications to get updates on our latest content and resources that will help more people know Jesus and people know Jesus more.GIVE : We believe that generosity is golden.

Manuel Mathieu (b. 1986) is a multi-disciplinary artist, working with painting, ceramics and installation. His work investigates themes of historical violence, erasure and cultural approaches to physicality, nature and spiritual legacy. Mathieu's interests are partially informed from his upbringing in Haiti, and his experience emigrating to Montréal at the age of 19. Freely operating in between and borrowing from numerous historical influences and traditions, Mathieu aims to find meaning through a spiritual or asemic mode of apparition. Mathieu has developed a distinctive abstract visual language, used to create phenomenological encounters that confront our didactic traditions. Amorphous forms vacillate and dissolve into one another, creating boundless landscapes traversable through desire. Through his quest for meaning, transparency and openness he undertakes a process of discovering his work, as opposed to creating it; by doing so the work holds its autonomy and can be assimilated into a space of collective consciousness. The vibrational effect of his work elicits physical and emotional frequencies that offer alternative methods for navigating the world. Drawing from a wide-range of subjects, Manuel's practice combines his sensibility and his formal arts education, which culminated in an MFA Degree from Goldsmiths, University of London. artistdecoded.com manuelmathieu.com instagram.com/manuelmathieu
