Sermon delivered on the Thirteenth Sunday After Pentecost, 2026, at Queen of All Saints chapel in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, by Rev. Tobias Bayer. Epistle: Gal. 3, 16-22 | Gospel: Luke 17, 11-19

Psalm 118 was written from a place of distress, yet it overflows with thanksgiving. The psalmist found reasons for gratitude in God's protection, strength, salvation, and everlasting love. This episode reminds us that gratitude does not depend on easy circumstances—it grows from remembering who God is and what he has already done for us.

SLPs have been screaming for a long time that reimbursement is too low, costs are rising, and access to speech-language pathology services is being threatened. But can we prove it with national data?In this episode, Jeanette Benigas, PhD/SLP, introduces The Speech Pathology Education, Advocacy and Knowledge (SPEAK) Project and its first major initiative: building a national economic dataset that shows what it actually costs to provide SLP services and turn those numbers into credible national evidence we can use to advocate directly with CMS during the current public comment period.Jeanette is joined by private practice owner Holly Ellis, MS/SLP, and CPA Cody Underwood to discuss how North Carolina built its own cost analysis, why independent financial analysis matters, and what the national SPEAK Project will measure, including CPT 92507, dysphagia and cognitive services, treatment time, payer mix, Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement, workforce pressures, waitlists, and access to care.The immediate goal: collect high-quality data from all 50 states (+ DC) and turn that evidence into meaningful advocacy.Give data.

When I went through friendship breakups, I thought they were a bad thing. I replayed every conversation, wondering what I could've done differently. But over time, I realized sometimes friendship endings are a beautiful thing. We outgrow people, and they outgrow us. Some people are meant to be in our lives for a chapter, not the whole story. And that doesn't mean anyone has to be the bad guy. Sometimes life changes your table so you can find the people who understand you a little more. Looking around today, I'm so grateful mine did...but I'm also grateful for everyone who has sat at my table because I'm exactly who I am today because of them❤️❤️‍

Suffering loss and experiencing grief can make us angry at God and poison our soul with negativity. Hopefully, this is not the future you want. It's certainly not the future I want. Therefore, I've written down some affirmations of things I believe about my loss that I believe will help me move forward in life. Join me for Today's Daily Word & Prayer as I share three of these affirmations.

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” -2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV)For years, a corner of prophecy media has run on the same recurring promise: the collapse is coming, and this time the date is real. The dollar is about to fail. The banks are about to lock. Buy gold before it's too late. And for years, the date has quietly moved every time it fails to arrive.In this episode, we look honestly at what's actually true — the national debt really is approaching a staggering figure — and what's been sensationalized for clicks and subscriptions. We walk through the practical case against “gold as your emergency plan,” including a firsthand look at what real currency collapse looked like in Argentina's corralito, and why that scenario would look nothing like a quiet inconvenience if it ever happened here.But the heart of this episode is Scripture's answer to financial fear. From Deuteronomy's test for a false prophet, to Jesus' own words that no one knows the day or the hour, to Paul's charge to be anxious for nothing — the Bible consistently calls believers toward diligent, faithful stewardship instead of manufactured panic. Not naive. Not reckless. Just faithful, one day at a time, regardless of whose prediction is trending this month.Grateful you're here.— Pablo------------------------------------------Subscribe to receive future broadcasts and articles at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.serpentsndoves.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-------------------------------------------Share.Forward this post, repost it, or pass it along to someone who might need it.Support.This broadcast is listener-supported.

Thank you for being here! I am grateful for this day. I am grateful for this moment. Most gratitude that we show is situational. It's reactive. That's gratitude because of our circumstances.Intentional gratitude is something entirely different.Intentional gratitude isn't asking, "What happened today that I can be grateful for?"It's asking, "How can I experience today from a place of gratitude?"

Whatever the topic, you can ask people about what they like, Which gets them involved in the discourse and adds to the flow, Then, before you know it, talking doesn't seem like such a hike, And you start engaging more deeply, the more you get to know. [full text below] Ep. 467 - Happy Conversation We begin as always with the Happy Creed. We Believe in Happy, in Balance and Growth, of being Mindful and Grateful,  Compassionate and Understanding. Yowza Haha My Happy Friends! There's nothing worse than a forced conversation, Where you struggle for words and just wish it were done, While the best discussions have no such aggravation, But float and bounce around and are nothing but fun. And they can start from pretty much anywhere, Movies, art, books, music, food, or even the weather, Begin by asking questions to show that you care, Without being too nosy, keep it light as a feather. Whatever the topic, you can ask people about what they like, Which gets them involved in the discourse and adds to the flow, Then, before you know it, talking doesn't seem like such a hike, And you start engaging more deeply, the more you get to know. People might downplay their hobbies, but you can give them a boost, Others may brag a bit, which could be your chance to lightly poke fun and kid, You can also volunteer your own interests, once a subject's been introduced, Each time it gets easier, and if afterwards you still think you can't—you just did. Haha Yowza

He once said he wouldn't join his father's party. Now he's its second-in-command. Barely a week into the job, Duduzane Zuma used the BNC#9 stage to tell South Africa's business leaders exactly what he thinks they've got wrong, about land, about the Reserve Bank, and about the "masses" he says the boardroom keeps ignoring. He splits the economy into three, calls out white monopoly capital by name, and makes one direct ask of business: meet MK halfway. Whether that's a real olive branch or a warning shot is for the viewer to decide.

Less, more frequently. Keeping my glorious subscribers up to date on some changes. Click here to view the printable newsletter. More readable than a transcript. Summary 600 blog posts and 250 podcast episodes in. I’m making a change. Production runs 50-60 hours per episode — unsustainable, even though I love every minute. In this trike-ride solo episode, I share what’s pulling my time: co-founding Trust My Own Health (a new startup, weekly one-screen newsletter ), co-leading an endometriosis series with Phee, and playing more baritone sax. The plan going forward: shorter, more frequent Health Hats episodes — 15-minute check-ins instead of long-form deep dives. Recorded live on a trike at 6:30 am, because that’s how I do things. Episode Okay, hello. How you doing? I’m back on my trike. It’s like 65, supposed to be 90 today. Maybe it’s 6:30 in the morning. I’m wearing a long-sleeve shirt just ’cause it’s a little cool, but not too bad. Anyway, good to be out here with you. So let’s see, what am I thinking about? I’m thinking I’m gonna make a change to my podcast. I thought I would take a moment with my most avid longtime followers. Thank you very much. ‘Cause I’ve been overwhelmed by my long-form podcasting. It’s taking 50 to 60 hours to do an episode. It’s just ridiculous. Actually, I enjoy every minute, but it’s too many minutes. And so let me tell you why it’s too many minutes and what my plan is going forward. I’m co-founding a startup, Trust My Own Health. And I will include a link to that ’cause I would love for you all to learn about it and subscribe to yet another Danny thing, a weekly one-screen newsletter. But anyway, this is taking a lot of my time, and I’m really enjoying it. I feel like it’s actually a culmination of my whole career, my whole life in healthcare, and I really wanna put the time in it. We’re in the raising money stage. And I’m actually, for the first time, feeling like we can do this and we’re getting ready to do this, and I wanna put in the time. But I don’t wanna stop doing Health Hats, the podcast, ’cause I love it. So I’m thinking about doing more frequent, like 15-minute things like this, just talking to you about life and health and what’s going on. And then meanwhile, What’s also happening is that I’ve been working with Phee, who is a person. with some very serious endometriosis. And over the past couple of years, my awareness of endometriosis has grown. Phee uses the pronouns they and him. So Phee wants to tell their story, and it’s a great story. I suggested that they co-lead the series about it. We’ve met a few times on Zoom, and we’re in the process of inviting a couple of guests. I see this as a series that will come out when it comes out. But I think I’m gonna– I think we are gonna put it out in half-hour bursts, just to go with the getting used to shorter, more frequent bursts. And actually, I’m spending a lot more time playing music, which I love. So again, it’s squeezing the podcast time, hence the change. I’m delighted to hear what you think of that, and you all have been with me through thick and thin for a lot of years. So this is probably the 600th episode since I started the blog, and we’re at 250 for the podcast. So there you have it.

Read along to learn the English phrases TO HIT THE GROUND RUNNING and TO THROW YOUR HAT IN THE RINGIn this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase to hit the ground running. When you're about to do something, if you are completely prepared and you have lots of energy and you're ready to do it, we say that you are ready to hit the ground running. We always want students to be ready to hit the ground running on the first day of school.When they come to class, we want to make sure they have pens and pencils and a binder and paper to write on. And then we give them their textbook so that their school year can go really, really well. If they come prepared, we would say they're ready to hit the ground running. The other phrase I wanted to teach you today is the phrase to throw your hat in the ring.A few towns away from here, not the town where I sometimes shoot videos, the one where Jen has market, right now, people are running for mayor. If I lived in that town, I might decide to throw my hat in the ring. You could decide to throw your hat in the ring if you are interested in being part of the election process and hopefully people will vote for you and then you will become mayor.So when you throw your hat in the ring, it doesn't always have to be a political thing, but it means to volunteer or allow your name to be, included in something like a vote for a new mayor. So to review, to hit the ground running means to be completely prepared and ready to do something.If you're going to sit down and learn English tonight, in order to hit the ground running, then make sure your phone is charged or your laptop is charged. Make sure you have a pen and a piece of paper to take notes on. You'll be ready to hit the ground running. And maybe in your local town, they need a new mayor or maybe you want to, be the leader of your country.In that case, you should throw your hat in the ring so that people know you are interested in doing that. But hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. The comment might relate to the phrases I just taught. This is from Unsal. Thank you for another wonderful video and for all the great phrases you teach us since you often tell us you're awesome, which has become my favorite go to phrase as well.I immediately thought of you when I heard Bryan Adams new song, you're awesome from his Toughtown album. While listening to it, I noticed two phrases that I wasn't quite sure about. To hit the ground running and to put your hat in the ring. Whenever you have a moment, I'd be so Grateful if you could share a quick explanation or an example for them.No problem. Thanks as always for your great energy and have a wonderful day. You're awesome. Bye. And my response, those are great phrases to learn. I will definitely keep them in mind for a future video. So it's kind of like time travel now. If you're like, what are those phrases? Well, if you rewind and go to the beginning of the video, you can see me teach them.Once again. Thanks, Unsal, for that comment. That's very awesome. Bit of a long comment, but I do like how many of you are improving your English writing over time. I actually do notice for some of the regular people commenting that over the last four or five years on this channel, your writing has become better and better.So good job, Unsal. Hey, guess what happened after the live stream last week. Actually, the day after the live stream, it rained quite a bit. And so the river is actually a little bit bigger than it normally is.So normally the river is quite a bit smaller way in the distance. It's probably hard to see. I do have some soybeans underwater. About an acre of soybeans is underwater. And if you look across, you can kind of see some grass sticking out on the neighbor's field.

Happy Behavior is that which stems from the balance and growth within us all, Hatred and spite are learned reactions to pain and bitterness when we forget That humanity isn't just a category, but a built-in feature of both great and small, Now this may seem like wishful thinking, but I'd like to believe there's hope for us yet. [full text below] Ep. 466 - Happy Behavior We begin as always with the Happy Creed. We Believe in Happy, in Balance and Growth, of being Mindful and Grateful,  Compassionate and Understanding. Yowza Haha My Happy Friends! I've hinted at this before, but now I'll make it the main topic of conversation, People sometimes talk a bigger game than they actually play in the day to day, I've known folks who'd tell you all the people they hate without hesitation, But when it came right down to it they sure didn't live that way. They may claim to despise an ideology, a lifestyle, a culture or a trait, But when they actually meet someone from such a group, who knows? They may actually find things in common that get in the way of all that hate, And before you know it they may actually be the one who changes and grows. I knew a guy who liked to preach about his beliefs and what he considered good, Then he met some so-called bad people who were decent, hard working and kind, They had hopes and dreams and inner lives deeper than he ever thought they could, And trying to maintain his beliefs in the face of this made him just about lose his mind. I've experienced it myself, when I've had to deal with a bully or a mean boss, Where they showed a rare moment of humanity and we actually got along, Sometimes it was only a temporary break in their hateful routine, so no great loss, But other times they actually turned into a person who knew right from wrong. Happy Behavior is that which stems from the balance and growth within us all, Hatred and spite are learned reactions to pain and bitterness when we forget That humanity isn't just a category, but a built-in feature of both great and small, Now this may seem like wishful thinking, but I'd like to believe there's hope for us yet. Haha Yowza

Who are the people who stayed after your loss? In this heartfelt episode of Journey to Grateful, Tim reflects on the quiet, faithful friends and family members who continue showing up long after the funeral has ended and life appears to have moved on. Through personal stories and gentle reflection, he explores how simple acts of remembrance—a cup of coffee, a thoughtful text, a shared memory, or even a photo of blooming flowers—can become extraordinary reminders that neither we nor the people we love have been forgotten.

So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous and good. — Romans 7:12 When I was a boy, the Ten Commandments were read almost every Sunday at church. The reading seemed long and dour. As I grew older, though, I learned that reading the law in worship is a fitting response of gratitude to God and a guide for spiritual growth.The Ten Commandments have more than one purpose. God's law convicts us of our sin, and it points us to the grace and forgiveness we experience in trusting God's Son, Jesus Christ, as our one and only Savior. When we trust in Jesus and we are no longer under the curse of sin, what happens to the law? In short, the Ten Commandments, which reveal God's perfect will, become a guide, a standard for followers of Jesus.Do you want to know how God wants you to live your daily life in relation to him and with others? Look to the Ten Commandments, which reveal God's holy, righteous, and good will for our everyday lives.We cannot keep God's law perfectly in this life. Though we are forgiven in Christ, we still fail—again and again.But, trusting in God's grace, we can ask forgiveness for our daily sins, and we can pray that by the Holy Spirit's power we will continue to become like our Savior, Jesus Christ, who kept all of God's commands perfectly.  Father God, thank you for your good and perfect will. Help us to strive every day to love and serve you and others. Amen.

“Your balls are baked aren't they, mate”. He would not have been bornThanks Lyndon, that describes the situation. Like almost 1 in 10 modern men, my sperm weren't up to the task - at least not the old fashioned way. So IVF it was - the miracle that now feels almost commonplace. We landed on the moon and Woodstock changed music forever. But in 1969 a quieter event transformed the world. The first human embryo was fertilised “In vitro”, outside the body. Yet 10 years passed before one was inserted into a womb, and then born. 48 years ago, Louise Joy Brown was the first woman born through IVF. This year about a million babies will be born through IVF. IVF stands at the frontier of rich-privilege, a norm for the middle class in rich countries. In my home country New Zealand, the government even pays for it! Yet every week I meet women here in Northern Uganda who can't have kids, and could never afford IVF. Even the human “right” to have a kid can depend on where you are born. If I was born 25 years ago, or in Uganda, my boy would never have [...] ---Outline:(00:13) He would not have been born(01:35) Our Risky Choice(03:47) He didn't die once - a routine miracle(05:33) He didn't die twice - Neonatal care(08:54) I am Grateful The original text contained 2 footnotes which were omitted from this narration. --- First published: July 28th, 2026 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/KMNk8zXLxHQXgN7rK/never-born-then-maybe-died-twice --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO. ---Images from the article:Apple Podcasts and Spotify do not show images in the episode description.

In this week's episode, Shanti enters the teenage version of the “terrible twos,” while Antoinette discovers that a fully booked summer. Oddly enough, we agree with J.Lo's recent take on relationships, debate Young Miami's lyrics and India.Arie's thoughts on mainstream music, and ask whether the sounds we consume truly influence us, or whether we only care when the message makes us uncomfortable. Finally, we discuss the irony of biohacker Bryan Johnson receiving a recent diagnosis after dedicating millions of dollars to not dying.

At first I was going to simply just write about my love of Phil Alden Robinson's spy thriller, Sneakers (1992), but then I decided it was time to start recording my voice again in hopes of returning to our regularly scheduled program next month. Since I needed something to lift my spirits, I asked friend and Chicago Film Critic Erik Childress to join me to talk for 2 hours all about a movie that means a lot to me. Another "Jim and his dad love this movie" example.Instead of only talking about why it's so great as a bonus episode, I thought a feature-length commentary track was in order, something I haven't done since recording last year with Bill Ackerman for the 4K release of At Close Range, another all-time favorite that I'd consider to be underrated. Erik was kind enough to take time out of his busy schedule to play a game a Scrabble, hop inside an unmarked van and wire-tap a mathematician in order to get our voyeuristic kicks. Even if you're not a fan or don't own this film to listen along as the film plays, feel free to simply just listen us nerd out for a couple hours about this all-star ensemble cast killing it every step of the way. It's a prescient film that has a lot to say and manages to be a blast the whole way through. Grateful to Erik and hope you enjoy what we have to say here!00:00 - 05:31 - Intro05:32 - 02:11:17 - Commentary Track02:11:18 - 02:17:59 - Outro

We get into the crucible that gave birth to everything, and why change stays within everyone's reach. Fourteen years. A thousand episodes. Grateful for every one of you. Enjoy!
