We have a bonafide legend on How To Fail: the American singer, songwriter, guitarist, actor and philanthropist who, along with his band, sold more than 130 million albums and performed in over 50 countries for more than 40 million fans before being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It's ACTUAL Jon Bon Jovi - the frontman of the world-dominating rock band who released hits such as You Give Love A Bad Name, Blaze of Glory and Livin' On A Prayer. In this conversation we talk about his life-changing vocal cord surgery, burnout, his faith, friendship with Bruce Springsteen and how being a father has taught him he's ‘not the boss of anything anymore'. Plus: the key to a successful marriage from a rock star who has been with his childhood sweetheart, Dorethea, for 36 years! He's charming, quick-witted and yes, that famous smile still lights up the room. Bon Jovi is back with the album ‘Forever (Legendary Edition)' featuring collaborations with Bruce Springsteen, Robbie Williams, Avril Lavigne, James Bay and many more. The band's Forever Tour will kick off next year, with dates in America and Europe. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 07:01 The Making of 'Living on a Prayer' 11:29 Vocal Surgery and Recovery 20:50 Reflections on Faith and Philanthropy 27:41 Challenges of Touring 28:19 The Performance Experience 29:43 Reflections on Fame 30:54 A Long-lasting Marriage 34:19 Parenting and Family Life 36:17 Friendship with Bruce Springsteen 41:20 Fashionista Failures 46:21 Wisdom and Aging

Summary: In this episode, Dr. Michael Easley and former NFL quarterback Jeff Kemp talk about what it means for men to follow Jesus with humility, dependence, and intentionality. Kemp draws from John's Gospel, where Jesus repeatedly affirms that He only does what His Father tells Him to do. Michael reflects on how staggering it is that the God-man chose to say and do only what pleased His Father. Jeff unpacks this further: if Christ Himself modeled such dependence, then we too must stop striving to impress God and instead learn to receive from Him. The conversation then turns to one of the greatest needs among men today—true friendship. Many men isolate, even while surrounded by people, leaving them lonely, insecure, and vulnerable. Kemp encourages men to take simple but intentional steps: initiate, honor others, pray together, and practice accountability. He shares practical questions for building deeper friendships, emphasizes the power of confession, and reminds us that level-five friendships are rooted in Christ and His Word. At the heart of this conversation is a simple challenge: don't try to live the Christian life alone. Depend on Christ. Invest in other men. Take the initiative to build friendships that are honest, prayerful, and life-giving. Takeaways Jesus modeled total dependence on the Father, and we are called to do the same. Men often isolate, leaving them vulnerable to loneliness and insecurity. True friendships require initiative—reaching out, honoring, and encouraging others. Confession and prayer with trusted friends bring healing and strength. Practical questions and accountability take friendships beyond the surface. Deep, Christ-centered friendships are essential for spiritual growth and resilience.

When you hear “Miss Nevada,” you probably think crowns and cameras - not an attorney, entrepreneur, and venture capitalist running multiple companies. But that's exactly who Lisa Song Sutton is. In this episode, Heather Blankenship sits down with Lisa to talk about how a law career and a batch of alcohol cupcakes turned into five successful businesses, including a venture capital fund investing in tech and veteran-led startups. Lisa opens up about building through different seasons of life, becoming a mom at 40, and why she doesn't believe in balance - just building a life that fits. If you've ever wondered how to do it all without doing it perfectly, this episode will change how you see success.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE: This season, we're interviewing the incredible members of WYM who make up our board, moderators team, and conference team! This week we are chatting with Jess and how her views of inclusion ministry have changed. In this episode we emphasize the importance of creating organic, everyday opportunities for inclusion rather than relying solely on structured programs.ABOUT JESS: Jess Berryhill serves as the Student and Disability Minister at Mt. Pleasant Church in Terre Haute, IN. In that role, she walks alongside and serves teenagers as well as individuals with disabilities. Since founding Grace Unlimited Disability Ministry in 2015, the program has grown to serve over hundred individuals each week and houses holistic programming that extends beyond the walls of the church. This approach currently includes a dating and relationships class, a mental health group, and several weekly gatherings. Through conversations with friends in the program, Jess heard young adults with disabilities repeatedly share that they wanted to live on their own and strive towards independence. Out of those conversations, Terre Haute Friendship House was born in 2019. It is an affordable housing model that allows college students and young adults with disabilities to live in community. Residents live together as roommates. It operates as a launchpad into independent living. Jess serves as the Executive Director and currently resides there as the “house mom” with her dog, Cooper.

With this conversation, we're going back to spot burning. In Troutbitten Podcast Season 3, Episode 1, we talked through Secrets and Spot Burning ( March, 2022). And in that conversation we spent a lot of time on the first part — on what fishing secrets really are, whether they're valuable, fun or just gatekeeping. (They're valuable, by the way.) And we acknowledged that every angler has their own set of things they might want to be secretive about, whether that's patterns, tactics or . . . spots.In our conversation from three years ago, it was interesting to me when I went back to listen, how much more fleshed out and nuanced my own opinions are now. Back then, I also felt the Troutbitten guys here were pretty much on the same page with everything. But now I'm not so sure. Because over time, not only have my own thoughts become more defined, I know the other guys here think differently as well.So it's time to revisit the hot button topic of spot burning. What's the big deal? How does it hurt? When is it okay to name spots publicly? Is it alright if it's part of a business? And are there different rules? Basically, it's a wide, wide world out there. And things change quickly, so it might be helpful to talk about spot burning again.My friends, Austin Dando, Josh Darling and Matt Grobe join me for a great conversation.ResourcesPODCAST: Troutbitten | Secrets and Spot Burning - S3, Ep1READ: Troutbitten | The SecretVIDEO: Troutbitten | Riverside - A Fisherman's Thoughts On Spot BurningREAD: Troutbitten | Respect the Spots, Man!

Life is full of moments that leave us feeling stuck, broken, or overwhelmed by the impossible. Whether it's a health crisis, a fractured relationship, financial stress, or the weight of our own failures, we all encounter situations that seem beyond hope. Yet, in the midst of these impossibilities, Jesus stands as the one who not only sees our pain but has the power to heal and restore in ways we can't imagine. The story in Luke 5 of the paralyzed man and his friends reminds us that Jesus is not just a remarkable teacher or miracle worker—He is utterly unique, the only one with authority to forgive sins and transform lives from the inside out. When the paralyzed man's friends couldn't get through the crowd, they tore open the roof to bring him to Jesus. Their determination is a picture of the kind of faith that refuses to let obstacles keep us from the only one who can truly help. But notice that Jesus doesn't start by healing the man's legs; He begins with the heart, declaring, “Your sins are forgiven.” This reveals a profound truth: our deepest need isn't just for our circumstances to change, but for our hearts to be made whole. Sin is not just a list of bad choices—it's a condition that affects every part of us, separating us from God and distorting our motives, thoughts, and actions. No amount of good works or self-improvement can bridge the gap between us and a holy God. The standard isn't just being better than others; it's perfection, and none of us can reach it on our own. That's why Jesus came—not to give us a list of steps to climb up to God, but to come down to us, to take our place, and to offer forgiveness and new life as a gift.

In his sermon "Lord of My (Our) Friendships," Pastor Rodney emphasized that God designed us for relationship—first with Him, then with others. He explained that the enemy seeks to divide what God unites, but followers of Jesus are called to live counter-culturally by pursuing friendships that reflect God's truth, grace, and purpose. True friendship begins with intimacy with God and extends outward as we initiate, cultivate, heal, or sometimes sever relationships so that every connection draws us closer to Christ and builds His Kingdom.

Life in the Vine - Week 8October 26, 2025Teacher: Pastor Dave BrownYou are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you. This is my command: Love each other.— John 15:14-17I call you friends…but this is my command?Perhaps we may now hazard a guess why Scripture uses Friendship so rarely as an image of the highest love.  It is already, in actual fact, too spiritual to be a good symbol of Spiritual things.— C.S. LewisAppreciative love gazes and holds its breath and is silent, rejoices that such a wonder should exist even if not for him, will not be wholly dejected by losing her, would rather have it so than never to have seen her at all.— C.S. LewisNow and forever more, we are friends of God.  We just don't always act like it.A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity.— Proverbs 17:17Savior AND LordWe hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.— Declaration of IndependenceIt is impossible for any created good to constitute man's happiness.  For happiness is the perfect good, which lulls the appetite altogether…This is to be found, not in any creature, but in God alone…God alone constitutes man's happiness.— AquinasIt would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.— C.S. LewisThis is my command: Love each other.— John 15:17When spiritual vitality is measured by sin-avoidance, we deceive ourselves into thinking that we are following Jesus faithfully. But following Jesus is to be measured by love—love for God expressed in love for neighbor. This is the good, beautiful, and kind life. It took me some years to realize this. In fact, I need to be reminded of it often.— Rich VIllodasLife has no better gift to give.— C.S. Lewis

In this unfiltered and unexpectedly heartfelt episode of OnlyLands, a menagerie of Badlands Media hosts come together to unpack the week's chaos, controversy, and camaraderie. What begins as a loose conversation about the recent on-air drama quickly turns into a raw exploration of loyalty, friendship, and truth in independent media. The crew reflects on how Badlands weathered internal storms, cleared the air, and found renewed focus on what matters, building community and creating great content. Between laughs, honesty, and a few well-aimed jabs, the hosts prove that transparency and humility are the lifeblood of the Badlands family. It's unscripted, genuine, and a reminder that even in the wildest weeks, Badlanders don't just survive, they adapt and keep creating.

Once, politics was something you debated and moved on from. Today, it can redraw the boundaries of who we call a friend. In this episode of Arguable, we ask a question that's become uncomfortably common: when someone you care about stands for ideas you find intolerable, should you preserve the relationship or protect your principles?We explore how political identity has evolved into moral identity, how social media turns differences into declarations, and why disagreement now feels like disloyalty.Is friendship about shared values or shared history? Can empathy coexist with conviction?

If you're in a relationship with a toxic friend, your mind, body, and soul already know it. You might feel constantly drained, heavy, tense, or plagued by headaches and stomachaches. Something inside you says this isn't right—because it isn't.Toxic friendships often stem from your family blueprint gone wrong. When narcissistic or unempathic parents set the tone early in life, you may unconsciously attract similar people later on. It's a true “What the Freud” moment!Even if a toxic friend seems to bring some positive aspects into your life, don't be fooled. As you grow and heal, your awareness shifts—and the relationship that once seemed fulfilling may start to feel unbearable. Eventually, you'll recognize the truth: you've outgrown them, and the party's over.Subscribe now and don't miss this honest, eye-opening conversation!

What if midlife could be the most transformative period of your life? Join us in a compelling conversation with Chip Conley, renowned entrepreneur and bestselling author, who shares his transformative insights on embracing the midlife journey. Drawing from his pivotal experiences at Airbnb and his groundbreaking work with the Modern Elder Academy (MEA), we explore how Chip's latest book, "Learning to Love Midlife," challenges ageist stereotypes and redefines midlife as a time for renewal and growth.Redefining what it means to be a "modern elder," Chip shares his unique perspective on combining wisdom with curiosity. By reframing midlife as a "midlife chrysalis" rather than a crisis, he opens up new avenues for personal transformation and fulfillment. Drawing on insights from thought leaders like Becca Levy and Arthur Brooks, Chip and I discuss how emotional intelligence, social relationships, and spirituality are key areas for growth during this pivotal life stage.Finally, we journey through the concepts of generativity and life purpose as they evolve across life's stages. Drawing from spiritual and philosophical insights, we discuss how older generations can impart wisdom while embracing new purposes, and how younger generations can navigate the complexities of an AI-driven world. We delve into the importance of understanding one's life story and finding one's "ikigai," a harmonious blend of passion, proficiency, reward, and necessity. Let this conversation inspire you to see midlife not as a time of crisis but as a powerful opportunity for growth and discovery at any age.What You'll Learn- Why midlife is not a crisis; it's an opportunity.- How to embrace aging as an opportunity for personal growth- Harnessing the value of wisdom gained through life experiences- The importance of fostering meaningful friendships in midlife- Strategies for redefining one's purpose during midlife transitionsTake the Midlife Pathfinder Quiz: https://reportcard.meawisdom.com/pathfinder-quizPodcast Timestamps(00:00) – Learning to Love Midlife(13:09) – Midlife as a Chrysalis, Not Crisis(18:39) – What is a Modern Elder?

Ever feel like you're running on empty but still trying to pour into everyone else? Same. In this episode, we're getting real about something super tough—we had to cancel a retreat we were SO looking forward to. Why? Because one of our bodies, hearts, and minds was waving the white flag. We needed rest. We needed space. And we needed each other.We're talking all things boundaries, burnout, and how hard (but holy!) it is to say “no”—even when it's to something good. Ministry life can be beautiful and heavy, and we're learning to care for our souls before they scream at us.So grab your coffee, kick off your shoes, and join us for a heart-to-heart about friendship, self-care, and why letting people in can change everything. Real-Life Takeaways:Saying “no” to ourselves? Oof. But necessary.Breaks aren't weak—they're wise.Your body will speak up if you're not listening.Boundaries = loving others and yourself well.Self-care is spiritual, y'all.Leaning on your people isn't a burden—it's a blessing.Asking for help ≠ failing.You serve better when you're whole.Saying no can actually bring you peace (what a concept!).Friendship = showing up and slowing down together.Get all the info about our next pastors' wives retreat and apply here:https://www.pastorswivestellall.com/attendaretreatTo purchase the BOOK, head here: ⁠https://pastorswivestellall.com/book⁠⁠To shop our MERCH, head here: ⁠https://pastorswivestellall.com/shop⁠⁠Want to support the Pastors' Wives Tell All podcast ministry?

Loneliness among men has reached crisis levels, but there are ways to change this. If you've been feeling alone, are tired of surface-level conversations, or unsure how to find men who can be real, honest friends, this conversation will give you tangible ways to connect — one walk, one conversation, or one man at a time. In this episode I talk with Jonathan Jacobs, founder of the L.A. chapter of Walking Talking Men, about how intentional time and connection can be simple, and create a foundation of real friendship. We explore why so many men struggle to build close friendships, how vulnerability becomes strength, and why deeper relationships are the key to men's emotional and physical health (as proven by the famous Harvard study on happiness).

When you want to reach out to someone — to ask them on a date, invite them to an event, or simply connect — what's the best way to do it? Text? Email? A phone call? Research shows one option is far more effective, and it's not what most people assume. Listen as I reveal what science says is the best way to reach out. https://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/should_you_call_or_text_science_weighs_in?utm Why do people slow down to gawk at car crashes, binge true crime podcasts, or line up for horror movies? Humans are naturally drawn to the morbid, and science suggests there may be real benefits to that curiosity. My guest Coltan Scrivner is a leading expert on morbid curiosity and frightening entertainment and he is here to explain why we are drawn to things that disgust us and why we can't look away when we see them. He's the author of Morbidly Curious: A Scientist Explains Why We Can't Look Away (https://amzn.to/46FKyQQ), and his insights will change how you see your own curiosity. We call solar, wind, and battery power “clean energy” — but behind the label lies a far dirtier truth. Mining the lithium, cobalt, nickel, and copper needed to power the green revolution comes at a steep cost to the planet. Ernest Scheyder, senior correspondent for Reuters and author of The War Below: Lithium, Copper, and the Global Battle to Power Our Lives (https://amzn.to/42rZtNw), pulls back the curtain on the hidden side of alternative energy. Friendship is essential at every age, but science shows teenage friendships may carry benefits that last a lifetime. Teens who build strong connections not only grow up to be more socially connected adults but also enjoy an important — and surprising — boost to long-term health.
