Chris Grainger is the founder and podcast host of "The Lion Within Us," a platform for men to discuss faith, ambition, and living a life of purpose. He is known for creating content that helps men connect with their audience and serve others.The Lion Within Us was created out of a journey of loneliness and to explore why many of us have a gap between how we would like to perform and how we do perform on Sunday and how we perform on Wednesday afternoon. That exploration led to the creation of a community focused on strengthening our minds and bodies, developing stewardship of our careers and finances, while embracing the call we have to serve our homes as husbands and fathers – a community that grows everyday and has become a spiritual and intellectual home for many of us.

Key Takeaways: Tariffs, Typhoons, & Turmoil: Derisking the Supply Chain In "Tariffs, Typhoons, & Turmoil: Derisking the Supply Chain with Moody's Andrei Quinn-Barabanov ", Joe Lynch and Andrei Quinn-Barabanov, Moody's lead Supply Chain expert, discuss the need to leverage predictive data and holistic strategies to mitigate complex, interconnected global risks. Financial Resilience Vetting: Supply chain managers must vet the financial health of all partners, not just customers. Use financial services (like Moody's) to assess stability. A stressed supplier is a critical performance risk, especially for industries like automotive and pharma. Geopolitical Planning & Diversification: Geopolitical risk is now a core factor, tied to tariffs and compliance. Aerospace and defense require scenario planning for policy changes and conflicts. Diversify sourcing regions to mitigate sanctions and trade duties. Digital and Physical Security: Threats include both physical cargo theft/freight fraud and sophisticated cyber security breaches targeting operations (OT). An attack on a 3PL or tech supplier (common in high-tech) can halt the chain. Invest in protocols covering digital and physical movement. Ethical & Legal Due Diligence: Pressure is high to ensure clean supply chains. Avoiding companies involved in slavery and/or money laundering requires rigorous checks. Non-compliance is a massive reputational and legal risk for sectors like pharma and energy. Climate-Informed Logistics: Weather risk is rising; use climate science in network design. In regions prone to typhoons or earthquakes, pre-qualify alternative routes, hold strategic buffer stock, and invest in resilient infrastructure. Transparency is Compliance: Achieving transparency and traceability is vital for issues like corruption and ethical sourcing. Modern tools (AI) are essential to trace components. This guarantees provenance for high-tech and ensures regulatory adherence for energy firms. Proactive Risk Modeling: Move beyond reaction to proactive risk modeling. Synthesize data (financial, geopolitical, ethical) to create risk scores for partners. This allows sectors like defense to build resilience by dual-sourcing and stress-testing their networks.

LEITURA BÍBLICA DO DIA: 2 CORÍNTIOS 12:2-10 PLANO DE LEITURA ANUAL: EZEQUIEL 11–13; TIAGO 1 Já fez seu devocional hoje? Aproveite e marque um amigo para fazer junto com você! Confira: Grainger McKoy é um artista que estuda e esculpe pássaros, capturando a graça, a vulnerabilidade e a capacidade deles. Uma das suas obras chama-se Recovery (Recuperação) e mostra a asa direita de um pato pintail, bem esticada e em posição vertical. Abaixo, uma placa descreve a recuperação da ave como “o momento de maior fraqueza durante o voo, mas também o de reunir forças para a jornada à frente”. Grainger inclui este versículo: “Minha graça é tudo de que você precisa. Meu poder opera melhor na fraqueza” (2 CORÍNTIOS 12:9). O apóstolo Paulo escreveu essas palavras à igreja em Corinto. Nessa época, sobrecarregado com lutas pessoais, Paulo suportou e implorou a Deus que removesse o que descreveu como “um espinho na carne” (v.7). Sua aflição pode ter sido uma doença física, ou uma oposição espiritual, como foi com Jesus no jardim, na noite anterior à Sua crucificação (LUCAS 22:39-44). Paulo repetidamente pediu a Deus que removesse seu sofrimento. O Espírito Santo respondeu assegurando-lhe de que lhe daria a força necessária, e Paulo aprendeu: “quando sou fraco, então é que sou forte” (2 CORÍNTIOS 12:10). Ah, os espinhos que experimentamos nesta vida! Como um pássaro reunindo forças para a jornada à frente, podemos pedir a força de Deus para nos auxiliar. Em Sua força, encontramos a nossa.
