The United States has not operated a single tungsten mine in over a decade, leaving the nation dangerously dependent on foreign countries for a metal critical to defense, semiconductors, and manufacturing. CEO Oliver Friesen goes Inside the ICE House to detail how Guardian Metal Resources is racing to bring two Nevada tungsten mines into commercial production before the end of 2028. He discusses China's sweeping export ban, the national security stakes of domestic supply chains, and how partnerships with the Department of War and Montana Mining Association are accelerating progress.

Some of the most memorable moments in Jesus' ministry happened near the water. Along the Sea of Galilee, ordinary people encountered Jesus in moments of fear, uncertainty, need, and change. In our summer series, Encounters by the Sea: Meeting Jesus at the Edge of the Waters, we'll discover how Jesus still meets people at the edge of their lives and invites them into hope, healing, and deeper faith.

The sermon explores the concept of God's divine appointments, emphasizing that His timing is perfect and purposeful throughout history. It connects the Passover lamb in Exodus to Christ's atoning sacrifice, highlighting that salvation is a personal and sufficient gift for all who believe. The message underscores the significance of new beginnings, noting that receiving Christ initiates a transformed life marked by liberty and service rather than legalistic obligation. Additionally, it addresses the necessity of godly sorrow as evidence of genuine repentance and the importance of resolving conflicts within the church before partaking in communion. Ultimately, pastor Friesen urges believers to examine their hearts, embrace their new identity in Christ, and live with sincerity and purity.

Celebration - 02.08.2026

This sermon exhorts believers to serve God with humility and unwavering faithfulness, emphasizing that true ministry is about laboring for His glory rather than seeking human recognition. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 3, pastor Friesen defines ministers as servants who follow Christ's lead and remain faithful stewards of the gospel despite opposition or personal suffering. The message warns against the dangers of carnality and the desire for applause, urging Christians to commit themselves to their calling until Jesus returns. It highlights the importance of being a 'by whom' for others in spreading the truth and maintaining doctrinal integrity within the church community. Ultimately, the central focus is on enduring to the end, trusting that individual reward comes from Christ at the judgment seat rather than from earthly validation.

Smart Home fängt oft harmlos an. Eine smarte Lampe hier, ein Sensor da, vielleicht noch ein Staubsaugerroboter mit App. Ein paar Wochen später hängt Hardware an Fenstern, steckt in Unterputzdosen oder funkt über drei verschiedene Protokolle durchs Haus. Und plötzlich stellt sich die Frage: Automatisierst du eigentlich schon sinnvoll oder sammelst du gerade nur sehr teure Learnings? Genau an diesem Punkt setzen wir in dieser Episode an.Wir sprechen mit Andrej Friesen über die wichtigsten Entscheidungen in der Heimautomatisierung und über das, was man gern früher gewusst hätte. Es geht um lokale Steuerung versus Cloud-Abhängigkeit, Home Assistant, Matter, Zigbee, WLAN, Thread, Ausfallsicherheit, physische Taster, Backups, Infrastruktur-Komplexität und die Risiken von Third-Party-Plugins und Supply Chain Attacken. Andrej organisiert Home Assistant Meetups, baut mit ESPHome und Pokipow eigene Hardware und podcastet im Smart-Hütte-Podcast über Smart Home und Self-Hosting. Kurz gesagt: jemand, der die Theorie kennt und die Box of Shame wahrscheinlich trotzdem nicht ganz vermeiden konnte.Wenn du ein Smart Home aufbauen willst, das nicht nur cool wirkt, sondern auch im Alltag, bei Ausfällen und für andere Menschen im Haushalt funktioniert, bekommst du hier jede Menge praktische Denkanstöße. Vielleicht nimmst du am Ende keine fünf goldenen Regeln mit, sondern genau die eine, die dir später Zeit, Geld und Nerven spart.Bonus: Wir klären ganz nebenbei auch, warum eine App noch lange keine echte Automatisierung ist.Unsere aktuellen Werbepartner findest du auf https://engineeringkiosk.dev/partnersDas schnelle Feedback zur Episode:

Episode Summary: If you want to understand where employee ownership in Canada is going, it helps to talk to a company that has been living it for the better part of a century. In this episode, host Colleen O'Connell-Campbell sits down with Chad Friesen, CEO of Friesens Corporation - a $120 million book manufacturer and publishing company based in Altona, Manitoba (population 4,500) - to trace one of the most remarkable ownership stories in the country. Founded in 1907, Friesens has moved through nearly every ownership form imaginable: sole proprietor, family business, ESOP, hybrid, and today a 100% Employee Ownership Trust. Chad shares how the founding family turned down dozens of offers to sell because they believed the business belonged to the people and community who built it, how the company "backed into" broad-based employee ownership during the 2007-2008 crisis, and how the Friesens model went on to influence Canada's actual EOT legislation. He also introduces Tall Grass Employee Owner Equity Fund, a new venture that provides patient capital and a proven playbook to help other founders exit to their employees. It is a story about print, yes - but really about legacy, community wealth, and doing succession on purpose. Key Takeaways: Friesens Corporation was founded in 1907 and is a roughly $120 million company based in Altona, Manitoba, a community of 4,500. It operates three book-related businesses: trade books (working with the largest and smallest publishers in the world), school yearbooks (a business defined by constant customer turnover, since students graduate every year), and Friesen Press, a self-publishing services business working with around 1,000 new authors annually. The company's mantra: helping others share their best story with the world. Fun fact: all five leaders in the company's history have shared the last name Friesen - the first three from the founding family, the last two (including Chad) unrelated to it. The company has been owned in nearly every form: sole proprietorship, family-owned, ESOP, hybrid ESOP/EOT, and today 100% Employee Ownership Trust. The founding family's roots in the cooperative, credit union, and mutual movements of the 1940s and 50s framed their path toward employee ownership. The founding family had opportunities to sell dozens of times - Chad keeps a file folder of historic offers from companies and equity funds - but chose employee ownership because they believed the business served a greater purpose than enriching one family, and they wanted to preserve the company and its economic impact in the community. Employee ownership started organically in the 1970s and 80s, with shares given in lieu of bonuses or raises. Over time, share values rose, and the ratio between new employees able to buy shares and retiring owners needing to sell became unbalanced. The first Friesens Employee Trust was created in the 1980s as a "market of last resort" to buy shares from retiring employees and redistribute them. By 2007-2008, a "trifecta of challenge" - the U.S. economic downturn, Asian supply/distribution pressure, and the introduction of the Kindle e-reader - left employee-owners nervous, with a drying-up internal share market. The company financed the trust to buy back all employee shares over a five-year period, freezing share values, paying cash, and keeping everyone as a trust beneficiary. Friesens effectively "backed into" being a 100% EOT as a defensive move that became a lasting strength. The Friesens model influenced Canada's federal EOT legislation. Chad's team worked with four people in the finance department building the legislation, sharing governance structures and practices as a real-world case study - evidence that broad-based employee ownership works at scale. A major, initially unintended benefit: the EOT became a great equalizer. Over 40% of Friesens employees were not born in Canada, many immigrating with the company's support and without excess cash to buy shares. Under the trust, every employee becomes a beneficiary three months after joining - no capital required. This equal-access principle became a tenet the federal government wanted to emulate. Distributions use two formulas baked into the legislation's guidance: roughly 70-80% based on compensation (last five years of an individual's pay relative to the pool) and the remainder on years of service. Friesens deliberately uses a dividend model rather than equity, distributing value three times a year - including a physical cheque handed to each employee-owner at a celebration, to make ownership tangible and immediate. The community impact is profound: Friesens generates an estimated $60-80 million in annual local economic spin-off. Retailers can tell when a distribution has happened because foot traffic spikes the next day. Chad estimates the company would likely have been sold 20-30 years ago without employee ownership - and all that recurring community wealth would have left with it. Tall Grass Employee Owner Equity Fund: Born from Friesens' search for diversification, Tall Grass is a separate entity that puts Friesens' surplus capital to work helping other founders transition to employee ownership. It targets stable, long-term, proven companies (not startups or turnarounds) whose owners are motivated to preserve legacy. Tall Grass provides patient capital - investing with little expected return in the early years to de-risk seller financing - and a proven structural playbook, taking a minority position. The goal: modest long-term diversified passive income for Friesens' stakeholders, with an enormous return on social impact. When Chad brought the idea to his employee-owner council, he braced for pushback about risking their capital; instead they embraced it, saying they would not be where they are if someone had not paid it forward to them. Employee ownership can be more than a structure - it is a strategy for community wealth, long-term resilience, and legacy.

In this episode, Oliver Friesen—CEO of Guardian Metal Resources—joins for a deep dive into tungsten's resurgence and why this little-known metal is at the center of U.S. national security, supply chains, and industrial resilience. We unpack tungsten's unique properties—highest melting point of any metal, extreme density, and hardness—and why it's indispensable in defense applications from armor‑piercing munitions to high‑temperature aerospace systems. Oliver discusses Guardian's Nevada‑focused strategy, including its flagship Pilot Mountain project, believed to be the largest undeveloped tungsten deposit on American soil, and how the company is positioning to help re‑shore U.S. supply chains.We also explore the shifting policy landscape—China's dominance over global tungsten supply, looming U.S. procurement bans on adversarial sources by 2027, and new federal initiatives—highlighted by a recent $6.2M U.S. Department of Defense award aimed at sustaining critical domestic tungsten production. Oliver shares how Guardian is building strategic relationships and accelerating project development to meet defense and industrial demand, while balancing responsible development and investor alignment. Disclosure: I still own shares in $GMET. Yes they have done well. No, none of this is investment advice. This is mining you will probably lose all your money. This is entertainment.
