Ever felt like something in your life looked right but turned out wrong?This message from Pastor Joe Moss II will wake you up to the subtle ways the enemy plants deception in your heart, your habits, and your relationships.Drawing from Jesus' Parable of the Wheat and the Weeds (Matthew 13:24–30) and the fascinating behavior of the cuckoo bird, Pastor Joe shows how to identify spiritual imposters — the thoughts and opportunities that masquerade as blessings but were never from GodIn this first episode of The War Within series, Pastor Joe Moss II uncovers how spiritual deception hides in plain sight — replacing what's real with what only looks right.Just like the cuckoo bird that lays its egg in another bird's nest, the enemy plants thoughts, desires, and distractions that push out what God truly planted in your life.Through the story of the cuckoo bird and Jesus' parable of the wheat and the weeds (Matthew 13:24–30), you'll learn how to:✅ Recognize deception before it develops✅ Sharpen your spiritual discernment✅ Guard your heart and your purpose✅ Trust God's timing as He separates wheat from weedsBecause the enemy doesn't need to destroy you… if he can quietly deceive you.

Filosofi Seth Godin dari empat bukunya mengerucut pada satu panggilan: Tinggalkan mentalitas pekerja pabrik. Kita terlampau lama nyaman dalam kepatuhan, padahal era kini menuntut gairah yang liar. Maka, tinggalkanlah barisan itu, sebab keputusan terpenting adalah: memilih diri sendiri sebelum dunia memilihkan nasib. Kepemimpinan, kata Godin, bukan tentang pangkat yang tertulis di kartu nama. "Managers have employees. Leaders have followers." Yang sesungguhnya adalah: keberanian mematrikan visi di hati banyak orang, bukan hanya memastikan mesin-mesin tua berdentang. Manusia modern mendambakan koneksi, ingin menjadi bagian dari suku (tribe) yang punya ide dan tujuan bersama. Dorongan afiliasi itu... sungguh mekanisme kuno yang tak pernah pudar. Maka, hadirkanlah inisiator yang dapat merajut kepingan jiwa menjadi satu getaran gerakan. Kepemimpinan tidak sama dengan manajemen; ini adalah tentang menetapkan cakrawala yang belum terjamah. Seorang pemimpin adalah heretik yang gelisah, memanfaatkan gairah yang membara, jauh dari jerat perintah dan ancaman. Kepemimpinan sejati selalu menuntut untuk berdiri paling depan. Status quo adalah musuh utama, benteng lama yang sulit digoyahkan karena semua orang sudah berinvestasi di dalamnya. Kita harus berani menjadi heretik, menciptakan yang luar biasa... yang justru mengundang gunjingan di pasar. Jika tak ada kegaduhan (make a ruckus), barangkali kita cuma patung di etalase. Kenapa kita takut memimpin? Bukan takut gagal, tapi takut disalahkan dan dikritik. Karya yang diam, tanpa kritik, adalah karya yang membosankan... tanpa daya ungkit apa-apa. Mengatasi rasa takut, itulah visa tunggal menuju tindakan. Pemimpin harus mengalihkan fokus dari kuantitas; cari kerapatan, tighter. Komunikasi yang bergetar cepat itu... adalah modal emosional yang tak ternilai, mengikat raga menjadi satu keyakinan. Nilai sejati selalu menyebar secara horizontal, dari satu hati ke hati lain. Kreativitas, ditegaskan Godin, bukanlah bakat langit yang langka. "The magic of the creative process is that there is no magic." Kreativitas adalah sepenuhnya keputusan, pilihan untuk bertindak. Siapa pun bisa menjadi seniman (artists), asalkan berhenti menanti ilham turun dari langit. Seorang profesional hidup dari praktik (practice) gigih, sebuah janji pada proses, terlepas dari jaminan hasil. Identitaskita menguat seiring tindakan itu; jika kau ingin menjadi penulis, menulislah hari ini, bukan esok. Hanya komitmen total pada praktik yang akan melahirkan skill baru. Mereka yang pemula selalu terjerat pada bayangan hasil (outcome), lupa bahwa itu hanyalah angin. Keberanian sejati terletak pada konsistensi proses, mengabaikan kilauan sesaat. Membuang kegagalan adalah bagian dari proses panen, bukan pengakuan dosa. Sindrom Imposter itu... adalah pertanda baik, suara yang muncul saat kita melangkah ke wilayah asing. Kita tidak perlu jaminan apa-apa, cukup mempercayai proses (trusting the process) yang membawa kita ke sana. Keraguan adalah bukti bahwa kita sedang berlayar, bukan berlabuh. Strategi... ia adalah filsafat menjadi (philosophy of becoming), yang menuntun keputusan kecil hari ini menuju bayangan masa depan. Kompasnya berputar di antara waktu, sistem, permainan, dan empati. Strategi yang elegan tidak butuh daftar kaku, melainkan kelenturan peta. Kita dikepung sistem (systems)... jaringan tak terlihat yang mempertahankan dirinya dengan gigih. Melawannya langsung adalah kesia-siaan, lebih baik mencari titik ungkit (leverage point) yang halus, mengubah alirannya dari dalam. Memahami hasrat tersembunyi sistem—status, kenyamanan—adalah kuncinya. Hidup adalah serangkaian permainan (games) yang dipandu oleh aturan dan kelangkaan yang tersembunyi. Kebijaksanaan adalah memilih permainan yang dapat kita menangkan, dan menyingkirkan memori pahit dari biaya hangus (sunk costs). Masa depan tak berutang apa-apa pada penyesalan masa lalu. Sekolah kita, sesungguhnya, adalah mesin cetak dari abad kesembilan belas, dirancang untuk melahirkan pekerja patuhbagi pabrik. Godin mengingatkan: "If you do a job where someone tells you exactly what to do, he will find someone cheaper than you to do it." Era koneksi menuntut imajinasi, bukan ketaatan. Ada tragedi senyap di ruang kelas: mimpi-mimpi yang dihancurkan perlahan, diganti dengan ilusi kompetensi yang fana. Kita terlalu sibuk mengejar penugasan daripada melatih penilaian (judgment) yang mandiri. Jika pendidikan adalah teka-teki, guru adalah kunci, sebagai pelatih gairah yang hilang. Di tengah riuh data, membaca dan menulis tetaplah mercusuar sunyi, memancarkan dampak eksponensial. Yang substansial bukanlah mengumpulkan fakta, melainkan keahlian menghubungkan titik-titik menjadi wawasan yang bergetar. Ajarkanlah keraguan rasional (reasonable doubt), kemauan untuk salah, dan kita akan memiliki mata yang tajam. Karya yang bernilai selalu lahir dari simpul kolaborasi, bukan dari ruang isolasi yang hening. Mengapa sekolah masih menyukai ujian individu, padahal koneksi adalah mata uang baru yang berharga? Kita harus menggalakkan proyek kelompok yang berisiko, di sanalah solusi kompleks terlahir. Kita sesungguhnya memiliki segala yang diperlukan... waktu, bakat, dan daya ungkit yang memadai. Mengapa kita menunda? Karena ketakutan selalu terasa lebih nyata daripada kewajiban. Waktu yang terbuang untuk khawatir(worrying) adalah energi yang seharusnya dilepaskan. Maka, segala pergeseran besar bermula dari asserti (assertion) yang sunyi, dari kemauan untuk memulai (begin) sebuah gerakan. Setiap kita memikul kewajiban yang agung, bukan sekadar inisiatif biasa. Praktik, strategi, dan kepemimpinan—mereka adalah trisula untuk menciptakan momentum yang tak mungkin lagi kembali.

Entre science, sensations et intuition, la data est partout dans le sport. Mais est-elle vraiment la clé de la performance ou un piège pour les athlètes ?

Deze week gaan we in gesprek over de Nederlandse godin Nehalennia. De altaren van deze Romeinse godin zijn namelijk alleen in de provincie Zeeland gevonden. In het Rijksmuseum van Oudheden in Leiden zijn de eeuwenoude altaren nog altijd te zien. Een verhaal in ons boek 'Een klein land vol geschiedenis' is gewijd aan deze bijzondere episode uit de Nederlanse geschiedenis.

There are many rich images used to depict the nature of the Church in the New Testament. The Body of Christ, the Salt of the Earth, etc... One scholar notes as many as 96 of them! Part of the picture this gives us is that the church is so glorious, and the wonderful truths about it are so myriad, that it requires many different images to draw out all of its beauty. Sort of like the way in which the luster of a diamond is drawn out when examined from different angles and in different lighting. In Ephesians 2:19-22, the Apostle Paul gives 3 different images of what the Church is.The Church is the Citizenry of the Kingdom of HeavenThe Church is the Family of GodThe Church is the Temple of GodIn contrast to the low opinions that many people in the world today have of the Church of Jesus Christ, these images draw out remarkable truths about the Church. One of these glorious truths is that the Church is essentially a manifestation of heaven on earth! Now that's a remarkable thought! Members of the true Church (all genuine Christians) are people who are citizens and ambassadors of the Kingdom of Heaven. Not only so, but all true local churches are also like embassies or outposts of the Kingdom of Heaven. They are the place where the values, the power, and the authority of the Kingdom of Heaven show up on the earth.Furthermore, to say that the Church is the temple of God, is to say that it is in the Church where God is most uniquely present. It is in the Church where God dwells and where his presence is to be sought!Listen to this episode to hear more about the implications of these great truths. This episode was originally a sermon given by Jackson Hankey at River City Church on Thursday, Aug. 14th, 2025.

À 7 000 km de l'archipel des Comores*, loin de l'océan Indien et de la côte sud-est du continent africain, voyage dans la cité portuaire surnommée « la cinquième île des Comores ».  On connaît d'abord Marseille la Phocéenne fondée il y a 2 600 ans, Marseille la Méditerranéenne, la Corse, l'Italienne, l'Arménienne ou encore l'Algérienne, mais beaucoup moins la Comorienne ! Pourtant, selon une légende tenace, Marseille serait la plus grande ville comorienne au monde, devant même Moroni, la capitale de l'archipel ! Aujourd'hui, on estime que la population comorienne -d'origine ou de nationalité- atteint les 100 000 personnes et représente donc 10% des habitants de Marseille. En arrivant Gare Saint-Charles ou sur le Vieux-Port, dans les rues de la deuxième ville de France, si le métissage ne fait pas l'ombre d'un doute, pour ce qui est de la présence comorienne, il faut aller vers les quartiers Nord pour en saisir vraiment l'importance. C'est là que se concentre la communauté comorienne de Marseille, une communauté récente à l'échelle de la longue histoire de la ville, ouverte quoique réputée discrète, mais surtout fière de partager sa culture et son identité à la fois comorienne et marseillaise. Un reportage de Benoît Godin initialement diffusé en septembre 2024. * : « L'archipel des Comores, situé dans l'océan Indien, est composé de quatre îles. Trois d'entre elles font partie de l'État indépendant de l'Union des Comores. Mayotte est un département français. »   À lire : Les Comoriens à Marseille : d'une mémoire à l'autre, de Karima Direche-Slimani et Fabienne Le Houérou. Éditions Autrement, 2002. Bien peu de choses à lire sur la vaste communauté marseillo-comorienne en dehors de cet ouvrage datant de 2002. Forcément daté, il reste malgré tout le livre le plus complet à ce jour sur ce sujet.  La cinquième île : les Comoriens de Marseille, de Luc Saïd Mohamed Cheikh. Éditions Pragmatic, 2019. Un livre de photographies qui donne à voir quelques aspects de la vie des Comoriens de la cité phocéenne – prière du vendredi, figures politiques, cuisine... À voir : Le documentaire Planète Marseille, enfants des Comores, de Charlotte Penchenier, 2016. Le parcours de trois Marseillais d'origine comorienne (dont Fatima Ahmed, que l'on entend dans notre reportage) qui tentent de concilier leurs différentes parts d'identité. Sur Marseille, n'hésitez pas à vous rendre chez Marie-Rose Said, « présidente » et cuisinière des « Terrasses de Moroni Mamoudzou », une bonne table comorienne. À écouter : La série en deux épisodes de Vladimir Cagnolari pour Si loin si proche en 2018 : Je viens de Marseille et je vais à Ouellah, suivi de Je viens de Ouellah et je vais à Marseille. On y suit Chebli Msaïdié, chanteur et producteur de musique de retour au pays. Et on y découvre une tradition comorienne essentielle : le Anda, ou « grand mariage ».

Hustle Culture vs. Diligence with GodIn today's world, we are constantly bombarded with messages about the importance of hustle. We are told that we need to work harder, longer, and faster in order to be successful. This can lead to a culture of burnout and exhaustion, as we try to keep up with the demands of our jobs, our families, and our social lives.However, there is another way to live: a life of diligence with God. This means working hard, but not at the expense of our health, our relationships, or our faith. It means being intentional about our work and using our time wisely. It means trusting in God's plan for our lives and knowing that He will provide for us.Here are some of the benefits of living a life of diligence with God: Reduced stress: When we trust in God, we don't have to worry about everything. We can rest assured that He is in control. Increased focus: When we are not constantly stressed about work, we are able to focus more on the task at hand. Improved relationships: When we are not always working, we have more time to spend with our loved ones. Greater peace of mind: Knowing that God is with us gives us a sense of peace and security.Come along for the journey!

Michel shares his journey, from teaching guitarmaking at lutherie schools to his time at the Godin factory, to developing and teaching his own advanced finishing course. We also dive into his current line of guitars — from parlor to harp — and how he continues to evolve his work through collaboration with musicians and colleagues. Michel explains his method of building two nearly identical instruments, changing just one feature between them to push the boundaries of design and sound. Stick around after the main episode for a bonus segment: I catch up with Mario Beauregard at the Sound Messe Guitar Show in Osaka for a quick conversation on what's new.

In a series of posts from February 8th to 11th, open source developer Matthieu Bucchianeri started making allegations that Meta's OVRPlugin is blocking non-Meta OpenXR runtimes, thereby undermining the open and interoperable spirit of OpenXR. He claims that "the OVRPlugin takes intentional precautions to exclude non-Meta platforms. This means that XR content developed with OVRPlugin will only work with Quest Link, and it will not work with any other runtime." Bucchianeri's allegation is that if a PCVR game includes Meta's OVRPlugin as their OpenXR middleware and doesn't implement the counter-blocking measures that he details, then PCVR users will only be able to use a Quest headset with Quest Link while other non-Meta headsets like "Pimax, Pico, Varjo, Vive" will be blocked, even if they have conformant OpenXR runtimes. Bucchianeri has validated these blocking counter-measures, and he says, "as proven with many applications using OVRPlugin with counter-measures enabled, these applications can run on a conformant OpenXR implementation." Not very many XR developers are willing to speak about these issues on the record, but I did manage to record a Voices of VR podcast interview with Virtual Desktop's Guy Godin who was able to independently corroborate many of the core allegations from Bucchianeri. Godin collaborated with Bucchianeri on the Virtual Desktop OpenXR (VDXR) runtime, but has also been receiving many complaints from PCVR users around Meta's OpenXR non-compliance issues, especially with games that launch both on Quest and PCVR and use Meta's OVRPlugin. Godin told me that games will work fine natively on the Quest, but any non-Quest headsets or if they aren't using Quest Link will be blocked on the PCVR version, unless the developer specifically implements anti-blocking counter-measures detailed by Bucchianeri in his technical write-up. It appears as though OpenXR conformance from the Khronos Group only pertains to the actual OpenXR runtimes on the hardware, but headset manufacturers are able to create their own SDK plug-in middleware that interfaces with OpenXR that doesn't have the same conformance requirements. It appears as though Meta is able to technically maintain their OpenXR runtime conformant status because it does not apply to their OVRPlugin middleware SDK solution, and Bucchianeri is claiming that Meta is undermining the normative standards of interoperability by not following the best practices from the Khronos Group. He says, "For the past several years, Khronos has come up with best practices and solutions to develop OpenXR applications and maximize cross-vendor and cross-platform interoperability. Khronos has asked XR developers all over the world to follow these best practices, however - Meta - the largest vendor in Khronos is refusing to follow these best practices." Bucchianeri is also claiming to have had private communications with Meta confirming that these were deliberate and intentional changes. He says, "This is not an accident: this concern was reported to Meta early in 2024 via official means in the Khronos group. Meta acknowledged purposedly blocking other platforms from running OpenXR content at that time." I was able to confirm in my discussion with Guy Godwin in this Voices of VR podcast episode that he also believes that these were deliberate and intentional changes to undermine the spirit of OpenXR. Part of why Bucchianeri was blowing the whistle is because the Khronos Group had not been taking any action against Meta. He describes Meta's actions as "reverting many of the improvements to the developers and users ecosystem that Khronos has spent time, money, energy into solving for the past 7 years." He says, "Unfortunately, since 2024, Khronos has refused to take actions to stop Meta's OVRPlugin destructive initiative towards the PCVR ecosystem. By not taking any actions to resolve the issues created by Meta's OVRPlugin, Khronos is sending the message that OpenXR is no lo...

Things Discussed: Signing Day: Got the most talent on offense since…1998? Down the list: OL: Two of the highest-ranked OTs in the history of the program, Gach was a Priority 1 for the program, Strayhorn is a center. RB: Jasper Parker the sites just missed; poorer man's Adrian Peterson. M thinks DJ is healthy. WR: Marsh was a big pull vs heavy hitters, Year 1 player. Browder needs development but Junior Hemingway upside. Washington is tall and can move well. TE: Owens is a Bredeson, really hurts that they missed on Olesh. DL: We love the heavy-handed build-a-bears that Esposito recruits. Remember his WMU guys? Moten and Patterson are going to be those guys too. Lou is convinced Benny Patterson is the guy. Kanka is a Godin. Marshall was a Priority and a big win. Can't expect them to get the scouting coup of the century with Graham and Grant every year but they can scout and now they can win the guys they scouted. Basketball: Every guy is good with a tradeoff, and that tradeoff is turnovers, e.g. look at the defense that Roddy Gayle (and Pippen) played on Ace Bailey. Rutgers: We got a break by missing Harper, who just shredded Illinois. Oregon game: the mental errors are baked in at this point, like they're not going to score at the rim as well as you want them to. Also baked in is the fact that they switch everything and play drop coverage, so your Shelstad types who make 50%+ of other twos after attacking a Goldin or Wolf are going to score. Sugarplum vision of a top-3 seed and winning the B10 is probably gone. All but one of their remaining games (all but Rutgers at home) are Kenpom A (top-50) tier, IE Q1 opportunities.
