On this episode of Gifts and Graces we get to hear from Heather Hess about imagination and the preeminance of Christ. Heather is Assistant Professor of English at Covenant College.

6 Gifts for Valentines | Pastor Joshua Redding by Highlight Church

Flaming Gifts by Chicago Tabernacle

This week Brian and Steve get abducted into the overstimulation zone with the brand new film by Joe Begos. Jimmy + Stiggs is a full sensory assault of flashing lights, sludge metal, substance abuse, black lights, aliens, splatter, and screaming. Light on story and heavy on the clean up, the film is like having a psychotic break in the back of a Spencer's Gifts at the mall. Also Eli Roth has a new fake funny trailer.     Plus we talk a lot about Larry Fessenden films, our upcoming FessFest, why Snoop Dogg is over, and the evil of KFC jellybeans.    Find Us Online- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/halloweenisforever/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/halloweenisforever Twitter: https://twitter.com/HallowForever Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halloweenisforeverpod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HalloweenIsForeverPod E-Mail: Halloweenisforeverpod@gmail.com

Pastor Andy Cass If you're going to crave something, crave the gifts. In Spiritual Gifts 201, we move beyond curiosity and into clarity.

Released February 12, 2026, for $29.99, this 2D action-platformer—marketed as a Metroidvania—explores young Kratos during his Spartan Agoge training alongside brother Deimos, framed by adult Kratos (voiced by T.C. Carson) narrating to Calliope.Analytic Dreamz breaks down the core premise, gameplay execution, and franchise implications. The ~12-hour experience features light/heavy attacks, parry/dodge mechanics, color-coded enemy attacks, and "Gifts from Olympus" abilities like double jump and slingshot. Exploration includes interconnected maps, collectibles (owls, lore, olive trees), optional bosses, and upgrades via blood orbs.Critically, it holds a 69 Metacritic / 70 OpenCritic score—the lowest in the 20+ year God of War series—praised for brotherhood themes and retro style but criticized for stiff combat lacking impact, shallow Metroidvania elements, limited backtracking encouragement, repetitive story loops, and basic progression. Visuals sit between retro and modern but lack cinematic scale. The co-op controversy—initial listings implied full campaign support, but it's limited to post-game challenge mode—sparked confusion and refund requests.User scores sit higher at 8.2, with some quick Platinum achievements. Analytic Dreamz examines if this low-risk spin-off serves as franchise maintenance amid Greek trilogy remake news, or falls short of mainline prestige.Tune in as Analytic Dreamz delivers a concise, no-holds-barred breakdown of this polarizing entry—serviceable but forgettable for many, yet a nostalgic Greek-era return for fans.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/exclusive-contentPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

How might believers get back to offering the gifts of suffering-faith, perseverance, empathy, and hope-to those living in a literal world of hurt?People used to seek support from the Church when life got hard. But instead of providing a place for people to suffer well together, many churches today focus more on big growth, how-to programs, and positive news. If we come to value comfort over depth, chasing after more safe, predictable lives, we risk diminishing our light and His hope.In Holy Disturbance, author Karen Sjoblom aims to reacquaint people of faith with the gifts of suffering by weaving historical and current-day narratives around Reverend Addison Groff's timeless prayer, "Disturb Us, O Lord." Focused on equipping and encouraging pastors, leaders, volunteers, and congregants, Sjoblom invites the Church and Her people to move toward deeper faith and community-especially within our storms.Study how and why we've drifted from being suffering servantsRead dozens of stories from congregants, leaders, and pastors about grief, recovery, hurt, and growth within the ChurchSoak in reflection questions, meaningful practices, and leadership wisdom to map a new course for your church and community-and a renewed thirst for GodSuffering engenders messier lives but richer, deeper connections...and this is what the Church was built for. Holy Disturbance is part love letter and part wake-up call to the Church and Her people-to recognize the gifts that come from our seasons of struggle, and to share our hard-won lessons and His hope with a hurting world.About Karen:An award-winning author, freelance writer, and editor, Karen Sjoblom has had a 40-year career in healthcare, science, education, high tech, and nonprofit communications, as well as decades in faith-based nonfiction. She also co founded and ran for nine years Eve‟s Daughters, a nonprofit for single moms and their kids outside of Portland, Oregon. In addition to Holy Disturbance, she‟s published Gone for Good: Lessons from a Midlife Exodus; One: Single Mothering, Full Circle from her time with Eve‟s Daughters; two parenting books with New Leaf Press as part of the Mom2Mom series; plus a patient and family handbook on living with Lou Gehrig‟s disease. She‟s also edited several books by multiple authors. She‟s passionate about matters of faith, resilience, and re-creation: studying our stories and scars, witnessing His mercy, and stepping into our missions. She lives in the Midwest, writing, teaching, and encouraging others to know, value, and share the wisdom gained from their life-journeys with a hurting world. Follow Karen:Website: KarenSjoblom.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/karen.sjoblomLinkedIn: https:/www.linkedin.com/in/karensjoblom/

REGISTER TODAY: https://www.angelwellnesscenter.com/who-am-i-supposed-to-be-now TODAY'S EPISODE: Beautiful soul, this is a powerful live coaching moment inside Rewrite Your Story. Kelsey shares how her grandmother continues to guide her through dreams, and how stepping into spiritual gifts can bring up the most common block for empaths: lack of confidence and the fear of “am I making this up?” Julie shows how confidence is built through training, practice, and learning to read energy without absorbing it. You will learn why oneness is the new way of healing, how to hold a higher vibration without taking on other people's pain, and how to rewrite the story that questions your intuition. You are not going crazy. You are learning to trust what God already placed within you.

Revelation 3:12 Some Amazing and Wonderful Personal Heavenly gifts to Christians!Support the show

In this episode, I'm talking about gifts: the ones you were born with (like them or not) and the ones you've cultivated over time. I share more of my own story here: growing up as a Christian with legit intuitive prowess, apprenticing spiritual teachers across many traditions, learning the real work of mediumship, and learning how to carry spiritual abilities in a practical, grounded way.  We talk about my gifts and yours. How intuition is both a gift and a skill, protecting your gifts, and why using what you've been given is both an honor and a responsibility. I also reflect on indigenous stewardship, bridging more universal spiritual ideas with Christian faith and language, and what it means to contribute in uncertain times. Your gift may not look mystical. It may be patience, the best sloppy joe's this side of Detroit or public speaking, crocheting, listening or leadership.  Whatever it is, it's not accidental. And it's not meant to sit unused. This episode can help. 3 Takeaways for you: If a strength has been consistent in your life, it's not a coincidence.It's yours to use, share and offer up.  Stop treating it like it's optional.Intuition can be strengthened.You trust yourself by listening, acting, and setting boundaries not by waiting to feel certain.Your gifts create impact when you use them. Keeping them small keeps your influence small. Using them changes things.

The longest chapter in the Torah reads like a divine receipt, recording the identical offerings of twelve tribal leaders over twelve days. To our modern ears, this repetition can sound like a broken record, a tedious list of ancient gifts. But in God's economy, this repetition is a profound declaration of the Gospel. It proclaims that each tribe, each leader, each individual gift is seen, known, and precious in His sight. This chapter demonstrates that a people purified by God's blessing respond with their best, and in turn, they receive the greatest gift of all: God's voice speaking peace from the mercy seat.  The Rev. David Vandercook, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in North Little Rock, AR and Shepherd of Peace Lutheran Church in Maumelle, AR, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Numbers 7.  To learn more about Trinity and Shepherd of Peace, visit trinitynlr.com and shepherdofpeace.net The Book of Numbers is far more than an ancient census report. It is the story of a people learning to trust God in the wilderness, and failing, and finding grace anyway.  In this series, host Pastor Phil Booe and guest pastors walk through the Old Testament book of Numbers chapter by chapter. We follow Israel from Sinai toward the Promised Land, through grumbling and rebellion, fiery serpents and a talking donkey, faithless spies and faithful priests. The journey is hard, the failures are many, and God remains faithful to a faithless people.  These ancient accounts point us to Christ. The bronze serpent lifted on a pole points to the cross. The rock struck for water points to the one struck for us. The high priest whose death frees the manslayer points to the Great High Priest whose death sets us free forever. Join us as we discover that the wilderness has more to teach us than we ever expected. 

6 Gifts for Valentines | Pastor Joshua Redding by Highlight Church

Send a textLove shows up in candy aisles, awkward expectations, and the checkout line—with a side of sticker shock—so we dig into the real question: do you still buy Valentines for your kids, even when they're grown? Our table splits, and that sparks a bigger conversation about what Valentine's Day really measures: affection, effort, or how well you dodge commercialization without sounding like a grinch. We talk thoughtful ideas that land, gifts that flop, and why recycled intimacy doesn't count as a present.The ride swerves into real life: Girl Scouts turned tap-to-pay pros, Walmart locking up basics, and fundraiser candy that shrank while prices climbed. Then we jump from aisles to arenas with a brush-by of Lady Gaga's team and a peek at the machine behind major tours—sealed phones, tight rehearsal windows, and camera crews moonlighting from the Super Bowl and Taylor Swift's juggernaut. We stack ticket prices across Gaga, WrestleMania, and smaller venues like Lupe Fiasco's anniversary show to find the sweet spot between spectacle and sanity. Pro tip: presales and intimate rooms often deliver bigger memories than nosebleeds at eight times the price.Because culture is also under the hood, we clash over EV trucks vs gas—range anxiety vs torque joy, generators on wheels vs the ritual of the pump—and admit some new designs finally look clean enough to sway skeptics. And since every great debate needs fuel, we put local spots on notice about gizzards, smothered chicken, and what “simmered right” actually means. It's messy, loud, and honest, with a stack of movie and TV picks to close your night: The Bear for kitchen heat, a tight six-episode His & Hers binge, and a few upcoming thrillers to circle on your calendar.Press play for jokes with bite, practical ideas you can steal, and a reminder to make Valentine's Day mean something real—especially for the people who don't usually get the gifts. If this made you laugh or think, follow the show, share it with a friend, and drop your best Valentine's win or fail in a review.Thanks for listening to the Nobody's Talking Podcast.
