In this episode, ProCFO Mauricio Davila shares insights from years of guiding companies through global growth and explains why international expansion demands more than just financial readiness.Mauricio discusses the CFO's unique role in identifying what others miss: navigating local laws, understanding regulatory systems, and recognizing how cultural differences affect everything from hiring to negotiations. He explains how experience in international finance helps turn potential risks into opportunities and how overlooking small cultural details can create major obstacles.We also explore how to balance short-term execution with long-term vision. Political changes, market volatility, and local norms can make global growth unpredictable, but the CFO's job is to keep the organization focused on why the expansion matters in the first place.For business owners and executives, this conversation is a practical look at what it takes to succeed across borders, from understanding culture to building the right team and making sure your strategy reflects both opportunity and reality.

Summary: “What Do You See? Fulfilling Purpose—No Excuses” Pastor Bryan Hudson, D.Min.  Primary Texts: Jeremiah 1:1–12; Esther 4:13–14; John 18:36; 2 Cor. 10:3–5 DOWNLOAD THIS SUMMARY Jeremiah 1:3 It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month. 4 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying: 5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified[a] you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” 6 Then said I: “Ah, Lord God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth.” 7 But the Lord said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,' For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak. 8 Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord. 9 Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me: “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. 10 See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant.” 11 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Jeremiah, what do you see?” And I said, “I see a branch of an almond tree.” 12 Then the Lord said to me, “You have seen well, for I am ready to perform My word.”   Thesis: How you see—with Spirit-given vision, not just physical sight—determines how God can use you. Vision silences excuses and activates purpose right where you already are. 1) Vision vs. Sight Opens with Dr. Myles Munroe's line: sight is with the eyes; vision is with the heart. We act out of what we see internally; no one acts beyond their beliefs and understanding. Best motivator of action: God's purpose and love of neighbor. Worst motivator: self-interest. Greatest enemy to purpose: accepting limitations and making excuses. 2) Jeremiah's Context and Call Jeremiah ministers in a divided kingdom (Israel & Judah). Israel already fell; Judah still “with God” yet drifting into idolatry and injustice. God's word to Jeremiah (Jer 1:4–10): Before birth—God knew, formed, sanctified, appointed him. Jeremiah's excuse (“I'm too young / can't speak”) is dismissed by God. God gives a threefold redirection: Command: “You shall go…and speak.” Prohibition: “Do not fear their faces.” Promise: “I am with you to deliver you.” Provision: God touches Jeremiah's mouth, putting His words there—empowerment. Assignment: “Root out, pull down, destroy, throw down”—then “build and plant.” 3) Inside the System, Yet Unconformed God often uses people already inside systems if they refuse to be conformed. Jeremiah: born into priestly establishment, yet called to confront corruption. Esther: positioned in power and tempted to silence; Mordecai reminds her she's there “for such a time as this.”She risks comfort to challenge an evil decree. 4) Two “Kingdoms”: Counterfeit vs. Christ's Dr. Hudson contrasts “Christianity without Christ” with the Christianity of Christ: Manifest Destiny and the Doctrine of Discovery (historical justifications for conquest and displacement) and chattel slavery are cited as religiously-coated systems that harmed people—ends never justify means. Frederick Douglass is quoted distinguishing the pure Christianity of Christ from the hypocritical religion of his time. “I love the pure, peaceable, and impartial Christianity of Christ; I therefore hate the corrupt, slaveholding, women-whipping, cradle-plundering, partial, and hypocritical Christianity of this land. Indeed, I can see no reason, but the most deceitful one, for calling the religion of this land Christianity. I look upon it as the climax of all misnomers, the boldest of all frauds, and the grossest of all libels.” (Frederick Douglass, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave) Contemporary Christian nationalism seeks to wield state power to impose religion. Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world” (John 18:36); the Gospel changes hearts, not by coercive law. Christians hold dual citizenship: we preach the Gospel, love neighbors, pursue justice, and elect competent public servants, but we do not try to “Christianize” worldly power. 5) Excuses vs. God's Plan God ignores excuses—they only “work” for the one making them. Inadequacy is real, but not a hiding place; the God who formed you increases capacity. Expect trouble for obedience; God already factored it in and promises presence and deliverance. 6) Weapons and Work of the Kingdom Our warfare is not carnal (2 Cor. 10:3–5). We pray, speak truth to power, show up, help people, and support leaders who serve the common good rather than self-interest. “Rooting out” includes exposing deception; “building/planting” means constructive actions that bless people and communities. 7) “What Do You See?”—The Almond Branch God asks Jeremiah what he sees (1:11–12). Almond branch—earliest to bloom—pictures God's watchfulness and swift action. Key: Jeremiah didn't need full interpretation to obey; he only needed to see what God showed. When Jeremiah saw God's adequacy more than his own inadequacy, God declared, “You have seen well… I am ready to perform My word.” 8) Applications & Practices Confession: Renounce excuses; receive assignment where you are; refuse fear; trust God's presence. Act where placed: Identify your sphere (home, work, school, civic board, ministry team). Two moves each week: One “tear down” act (truth-telling, intercession, challenging injustice). One “build/plant” act (mentoring, proposing just processes, starting prayer/helps initiatives). Discernment: Judge by fruit, not labels; avoid fruitless arguments; invest in people with ears to hear. 9) Closing Appeal & Prayer Place hope in Christ, not systems. Worldly empires fail; God's kingdom endures. Ask for grace to discern counterfeit religion, to shine light without anger, and to participate in God's change by changed hearts leading to changed conditions. Call to salvation, consecration, and immediate obedience—letting the “light turn on” and walking out purpose with no excuses. Bottom line: Seeing with kingdom vision—not merely with natural sight—positions you to confront lies, build what blesses people, and walk confidently in the assignment God prepared before you were born.

This sermon challenges believers to recognize both the need and responsibility of sharing the gospel. From Romans 10:1–13, we learn that unbelievers must believe in Jesus alone for salvation—only through faith in Him can they be made right with God. For believers, Romans 9:14–15 emphasizes our calling to share this message: people cannot believe unless someone tells them. Every Christian has been sent with the good news, and sharing it is a beautiful act of obedience. We are called to meet people where they are, engage with genuine care, and take Spirit-led initiative. The gospel is simple yet powerful: all have sinned, Christ died for us, and through faith we receive eternal life.

Dr. Edith Davis continues her discussion on the essential need for unity in the Body of Christ, particularly as the return of Christ draws near. She details the urgency and the divine strategy for fulfilling the Great Commission—the mandate to share the gospel with the entire world. Key Teaching Points: -- The Urgency of the Last Days: The clock is ticking for the return of Christ, who is coming back for a unified church "without any wrinkles, without any spots, without any blemishes." -- The Scope of Christ's Sacrifice: Jesus died for the entire world, and His blood covers the sin of every person. Going to hell is not about sin, but about rejecting the free gift of forgiveness offered through His blood. -- God's Divine Strategy: While the church starts "behind" in evangelism (with over 350,000 people born daily and only about 77,000 born again), God has given a "divine multiplication factor." One can scatter 1,000, and two can scatter not 2,000, but 10,000. -- The Power of the Holy Spirit: The Great Commission is humanly impossible; it must be done through the power of the Lord God, Holy Spirit. It cannot be achieved by any "marketing campaign of man." -- Walking in Love and Forgiveness: Fulfilling the mandate requires walking in the fruits of the Spirit and actively loving one's enemies, just as Christ and the martyr Stephen did, which can lead to powerful conversions (like Saul of Tarsus becoming Paul). -- The Blessing of Unity: The blessing of God, which enriches and adds no sorrow, is evoked from the unity of the Body of Christ. Division is contrary to God's plan—there is no "black church," "white church," or "Hispanic church," only the unified Body of Christ.

Sunday Morning 10/19/2025

This sermon calls believers to live intentionally on mission for Christ. We experience success through three keys: prayer, conduct, and words. We are to pray continually for open doors to share the gospel, live wisely by making the most of every opportunity, and speak with grace—offering truth firmly but kindly. The message emphasizes that God places each of us sovereignly in specific spheres of influence—our families, workplaces, and communities—for gospel impact. Like Jesus, Paul, and Philip, we must see divine appointments as opportunities to share the good news: that all have sinned, Christ died for us, and through faith we receive eternal life.

Pastor Jay delved into the Gospel of Matthew to tackle a question that often feels mysterious and daunting to believers: "What is God's will for my life?" He moved the concept from an elusive, cosmic blueprint to a tangible, daily pursuit, showing that God's will is less about finding a hidden path and more about faithfully walking the one already laid out before us.

The growth in Hybrid Fronting carriers has been explosive in the past seven years and this growth has both been fuelled by, and has helped feed, a parallel explosion in the formation of MGAs and the rise in commercial insurance distribution outside the Admitted Lines market. Today's guest is one of the first movers in this relatively novel insurance carrier type and co-founded the business that is now MS Transverse. As such Dave Paulsson is a guest with a unique perspective. Now that the sector is beginning to mature and MS Transverse itself is part of a top 10 global insurance group, this podcast examines what is going to come next in this remarkable growth and transformation story. Unlike most of us, who just one day found ourselves doing insurance in one way or another, Dave came to the sector by looking at it from the outside, spotting a golden opportunity and executing a plan to make the most of that opportunity. That's what makes him such a refreshing insurance entrepreneur and this podcast a little out of the ordinary.

What if embracing death could bring more meaning to life? Join us on a profound exploration into the concept of a "good death," where we unravel the practical and emotional dimensions often shrouded in fear. We tackle the age-old perception of death as a sacred rite of passage and invite listeners to redefine their relationship with life's inevitable end. Together, we establish personal benchmarks for quality of life—like recognizing loved ones, self-care, and mobility—that aid in making thoughtful decisions about end-of-life care. Reflect on what truly matters to you and how you can ensure your wishes are honored when it counts. In a world where death is often viewed with trepidation, we propose a paradigm shift—seeing it as a sacred transition rather than a final bow. Hear the moving story of a man in the ICU whose perspective was transformed by a compassionate nurse, illustrating how death can be a beautiful rite of passage. This episode also shines a light on living a life aligned with your true calling, enriching both your journey and the world around you. We invite you to engage with the "When You Die Project" and the film "Saying Goodbye: Preparing for Death," exploring how to approach death with dignity and wisdom. Embrace this sacred journey with us, remembering that each life is an exquisite gift meant to be lived fully and meaningfully.   (00:02) Good Death Concept (08:45) Embracing Death as a Sacred Experience (23:23) Living a Fulfilling, Purposeful Life

In this podcast episode, Kurt Francom and Dan Duckworth discuss the importance of addressing community tragedies within Latter-day Saint congregations. They explore how leaders can create spaces for healing and connection during difficult times, emphasizing the role of vulnerability and unity in fostering a supportive church environment. Dan Duckworth speaks, teaches, and writes on leadership, power, and systemic change. His forthcoming book, The Leader in Chains (spring 2026), challenges conventional ideas and calls for a radical rethinking of leadership—and how it is developed. Links Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Overview Perception of Community Needs: Leaders should be attuned to the emotional climate of their congregations, recognizing when community tragedies impact members. This awareness can guide appropriate responses. Risk of Vulnerability: Addressing difficult topics in church settings can feel risky, but it is essential for fostering genuine connections and healing. Leaders should embrace this risk to create a supportive environment. Purpose of Church: The church serves not only as a place for learning doctrine but also as a community for healing and support. Engaging in open discussions about current events can strengthen faith and unity. Creating Safe Spaces: Leaders can facilitate discussions that allow members to express their feelings and experiences, promoting emotional processing and community bonding. Driving the Hope Train: Leaders should focus on instilling hope and directing conversations toward Christ's teachings, using scriptural stories to provide comfort and guidance during challenging times. Leadership Applications Fostering Open Dialogue: Leaders can initiate conversations about current events or tragedies, encouraging members to share their feelings and experiences. This can be done through structured discussions or informal check-ins. Building Trust and Safety: By consistently creating a culture of vulnerability and support, leaders can ensure that members feel safe to express their emotions and seek help when needed. Integrating Healing into Meetings: Leaders can incorporate discussions of community challenges into regular meetings, ensuring that spiritual teachings are connected to real-life experiences, thus reinforcing the church's role as a healing community.
