Raised on a farm surrounded by multiple generations of family, including his farmer grandfather, Drew Baldridge learned early that hard work, grit, and persistence matter. When Nashville wouldn’t book him or sign him, he created his own path—playing backyard concerts and building his fanbase from the ground up. That farmer mentality took him from backyard shows to chart-topping success and tours with Jelly Roll and Luke Bryan. Now a husband and father of two, Drew is celebrating the values that shaped him with his new album, Farm Faith Family.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Which version of you shows up when you pray?In this reflection on Psalm 55, John Ortberg explores a surprising truth about prayer: God doesn't want the cleaned-up, polished, "Disney version" of you. He wants the real you.The Psalms aren't theological essays or collections of perfectly polished emotions. They're raw prayers from real human beings bringing fear, anger, anguish, confusion, and desire honestly before God.John connects this idea to the original story of The Adventures of Pinocchio, which is much darker and more spiritually suggestive than the famous Disney adaptation. Pinocchio is lovingly created by his father, rebels against him, rejects his conscience, and longs for something he cannot accomplish on his own: to become real.And that's where Pinocchio's story intersects with ours.Transformation doesn't begin when we finally become the person we think God wants. It begins when the person we actually are becomes willing to stand honestly before Him.In this episode:Psalm 55 and honest prayerWhy every emotion in the Psalms isn't necessarily an instructionBringing our troubled thoughts before GodThe surprising theology of PinocchioConscience, rebellion, and the love of the FatherBiblical echoes of Jonah and the Prodigal SonMoving from a heart of stone to a heart of fleshWhy transformation begins with getting realScriptures:Psalm 552 Timothy 3:16–17Hosea 11:3Luke 15Jonah 1–2Matthew 12:38–40Ezekiel 36:26#Psalm55 #JohnOrtberg #Prayer #Psalms #Pinocchio #SpiritualFormation #ChristianFaith #BibleStudy #HonestPrayer #Transformation

Scientist. Inventor. Humanitarian. Entrepreneur. Mother. Genius. Dr. Christina Rahm has built an extraordinary career around science, innovation, and finding the root cause of health, but her greatest education came through her own battles. After facing cancer, a pituitary tumor, Lyme disease, devastating loss, and watching her child battle cancer, Christina turned unimaginable pain into purpose. In this raw conversation, we go beyond the patents and accomplishments to uncover what drives her, what broke her, what rebuilt her, and why she refuses to stop fighting for better health.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Do you ever enjoy a good argument? In the scriptures, there are a surprising number of folks who argue with God. This week we'll consider several of the people in the Bible who argued with God, and try to see what motivated them to argue with the Lord and the result of that argument. Receive Fear, insecurity, arrogance, and unbelief are just some of the reasons why people argue with God in the Bible. Maybe you've argued—or are arguing—with God over similar feelings?  As we look at the Bible accounts of Moses, Peter, and Ananias, and times they questioned/argued with God, let's also reflect on the powerful portrait we get of our God for their experiences. God is patient and doesn't simply override our human resistance, but often works through it toward ends that we could never have anticipated. How can you trust God even when you don't understand or agree with your circumstances?  Reflect  Why was Moses arguing with God in Exodus 3–4? How did God respond? Why did Peter argue with Jesus in Matthew 16:22?  In Luke 22:31–34, why did Peter argue with Jesus? What caused Ananias to argue with God in Acts 9:13–14? How did Peter justify arguing with God in Acts 10:14?  Respond (Use this prayer to start a conversation with God) “Dear God, thank You for being so patient with me! Help me not to argue with You when I don't understand or agree with what You're doing in my life. Help me to trust that You have the best plan for my life.”  Discover more about the topics in this episode with these recommended resources Mentioned in this episode: Our Daily Bread Ministries App Listen: The Times of the Judges | Week 1 The Times of the Judges | Week 2 Read: Why Should I Trust God? To the Spiritual Rebels Watch: John 11 - Arguing with God Jeremiah 33:3 - Getting Real with God

Brad Leighninger is the pitmaster, co-owner, and founder behind the award-winning barbecue brand Gettin' Basted, based in southwest Missouri. He launched the team in 2012, originally as a competition barbecue outfit, and quickly built it into one of the most successful teams on the professional BBQ circuit before expanding into full-scale restaurants in Branson and Nixa, Missouri. Leighninger is widely known in the BBQ world for helping popularize the "hot and fast" cooking style, using direct heat and drum smokers rather than traditional low-and-slow methods. This approach became a signature of both his competition strategy and restaurant menu. As a competitor, he has accumulated an elite résumé, including multiple world-class titles such as a Jack Daniel's World Championship Invitational Barbecue Grand Champion, King of the Smoker Grand Champion, and multiple Kansas City Barbeque Society (KCBS) Team of the Year honors. He has also earned over 100 major competition wins and numerous grand championships across the United States. Beyond competition, Leighninger co-owns several Gettin' Basted restaurant locations and is active in the broader barbecue industry as a pitmaster, educator, and public figure in BBQ media and events. In short, he's considered one of the most decorated and influential modern competitive pitmasters, known for both his innovation in technique and his dominance on the competition circuit.

What do you do when life creates an unexpected opening? Most of us rush to fill empty space—with busyness, worry, or the next thing on our list. But what if those openings aren't problems to solve? What if they're invitations to grow? In this episode, I explore the difference between loss and capacity, why our identity matters during times of transition, and how creating space can help us recognize possibilities we might otherwise miss. Whether you're changing jobs, retiring, launching a business, or simply entering a new chapter of life, this conversation invites you to pause before filling the space. I'd love to hear your story in the comments: When has something that ended eventually made room for something better?

Olivia Levin started a Taylor Swift Tumblr at 13… and somehow turned it into a 600,000+ person global community, a full-time career, and a New York Times and USA Today bestselling book, “The Story of Us.” ✨ She’s been a Swiftie since she was 8, attended private events, hung out with Taylor in her living room, met her family, and heard the entire Reputation album before it was released.

Derrick Rose just gave Caleb Wilson the kind of co-sign that should have Chicago Bulls fans fired up.On today's Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down Derrick Rose's comments about Bulls rookie Caleb Wilson, including Rose saying he sees a little of himself in Wilson's belief, confidence, and mindset. Rose described Wilson as having the kind of “delusional” confidence elite athletes need — the belief that he can be the No. 1 player — and explained why that is something he respects.Haize also reacts to Rose's advice to Wilson about making “gambit” moves, sacrifice, discipline, and staying focused as the No. 4 overall pick begins his rookie journey in Chicago. Wilson honoring Rose with a silver rose pin on draft night only makes the connection even stronger.Then the conversation turns to the 2026 NBA Rookie of the Year race. Can Caleb Wilson become the fourth Bulls player ever to win ROY, joining Michael Jordan, Elton Brand, and Derrick Rose? After a dominant Summer League and rising odds from FanDuel and DraftKings, Wilson has already become one of the biggest names in the rookie race.

What if life isn't a problem to solve—but a journey to experience? In this solo episode of Circle Up & Get REAL, Jodee reflects on an upcoming biking adventure through Montana and discovers that planning a road trip has a surprising way of illuminating life itself. Through stories about maps, GPS systems, bike trails, and mountain roads, she explores why we often expect life to be easier than it was ever meant to be. The journey reminds us that hills, valleys, storms, detours, and unexpected companions aren't signs we've gone off course—they're part of the adventure. Jodee shares why agency isn't about controlling every circumstance but about choosing how we respond to the conditions we encounter. She introduces the powerful distinction between an external GPS that helps us navigate and an internal compass—our values, intuition, instinct, and discernment—that helps us determine our True North. Along the way, she explores: Why expectations often create unnecessary suffering What a GPS can teach us about self-compassion ("Recalculating...") The two questions every journey requires: Where am I? and Where do I want to go? Why mentors and trail guides can show us where they've been—but cannot walk our path for us The meaning of coddiwomple: traveling purposefully toward a destination that isn't yet completely clear How curiosity, courage, and discernment help us navigate uncertainty Whether you're standing at a crossroads, questioning your direction, or simply trying to enjoy the scenery a little more, this episode offers an invitation to trust both the map and the compass—and to remember that becoming may matter even more than arriving. Key Takeaway: Life isn't about avoiding wrong turns. It's about learning to recalculate with curiosity instead of judgment and having the courage to continue the journey. Quote from the Episode "It's never what happens to you. It's who you become in the process." Reflection Questions What expectations am I carrying that may be making my journey harder than it needs to be? Where am I today—not where I wish I were? Where do I truly want to go? What does my inner compass tell me that no GPS can? If I took one courageous step without knowing the entire path, what might become possible?

Hi friends! I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today we are talking all about thyroid health, hormones, and why so many women are being told they're "fine" when they are absolutely not. I'm sitting down with Ashley Cruz Arata, certified Integrative Health Practitioner and hormone specialist. For years she was dismissed by doctors who her me everything was fine because "all the labs were normal." Meanwhile, she was dealing with 35 lbs of weight gain, relentless joint pain, brain fog and crippling fatigue. She eventually healed herself and now helps high-achieving women 35+ get the real answers their doctors have been missing. I think you are going to love her. Check out what we chat about: Why conventional thyroid testing only looks at two markers and why that is a massive problem for millions of women The labs you should actually be asking for, including free T3, reverse T3, TPO antibodies, cortisol, and sex hormones Why intermittent fasting and more cardio can make thyroid dysfunction significantly worse The truth about thyroid medication and why taking it does not mean you are done Two free, easy at-home habits that support your thyroid and cortisol rhythm every single day The protein-before-coffee habit that can completely change how your day feels How stress is silently wrecking your hormones and Ashley's Sunday night ritual to manage it without adding more to your plate And so much more!! It was so great getting to chat with Ashley and I hope you love this episode! If you have ever been dismissed by a doctor or told your labs are normal while still feeling terrible, this one is for you! Ashley also has a free guide for you: Normal Isn't Optimal: The Essential Hormone Lab Guide That Shows You What "Normal" Labs Are Missing.

Rodney Atkins is the kind of country artist who proves the best songs usually come from the life you actually live. After a seven-year break from releasing a full studio album, Rodney returns with True South, not because he stepped away from music, but because life got bigger. Marriage, fatherhood, raising three sons with his wife Rose Falcon, and building a family became the story he wanted to tell. The man behind anthems like “If You’re Going Through Hell,” “It’s America,” and “Take a Back Road” helped define 2000s country radio with six No. 1 hits, but these days, his biggest role is being a dad. His song “Watching You” wasn’t just a hit… it was a real-life snapshot of parenting and the little moments that become everything. Now, with True South, Rodney Atkins raises a longneck to the things that matter most: love, family, memories, and the life he’s built.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

O-Town’s Ashley Parker Angel went from being the breakout heartthrob of Making the Band to living a life that’s truly all in. As part of O-Town, he helped create some of the biggest pop moments of the early 2000s with hits like “All or Nothing” and “Liquid Dreams,” selling over 10 million albums worldwide. But Ashley’s story is about so much more than fame. After years of performing, Broadway, and chasing his dreams, he hit a point of burnout and exhaustion that led to a major health wake-up call. That journey inspired his new passion: helping others feel their best through his science-backed wellness brand High Level Science, now in 700 GNC locations, and his Making the Brand Tour. From boy band dreams to building a whole new chapter, Ashley is proof that you can keep evolving, keep dreaming, and keep going all in on the life you want.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
