“Everyone also to whom God has given wealth and possessions and the power to enjoy them, and to accept his lot and rejoice in his toil—this is the gift of God.”  - Ecclesiastes 5:19What if true joy doesn't come from gaining more, but from gratefully receiving what God has already provided? Today, John Cortines joins us to explore what he calls the Cycle of Grateful Living—and how it transforms our approach to money and contentment.John Cortines is the Director of Grantmaking at The Maclellan Foundation. He is the author of our new study on the book of Ecclesiastes, Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money, as well as the co-author of God and Money: How We Discovered True Riches at Harvard Business School and True Riches: What Jesus Really Said About Money and Your Heart.The Heart of Ecclesiastes: Joy as a GiftEcclesiastes 5:18–20 forms the foundation of our new Wisdom Over Wealth study:“It is good and fitting to eat and drink and find enjoyment in all the toil... this is God's gift to man... God keeps him occupied with joy in his heart.” - Ecclesiastes 5:18–20These verses, nestled within the longest section on money in the book, offer a radical invitation: rather than striving for more, we're called to enjoy what we've already received. Even the ability to enjoy life's blessings is a divine gift.Introducing the Cycle of Grateful Living: E.A.T.To help us live out this vision, here's a simple acronym from Ecclesiastes 5:19: E.A.T.—Enjoy, Accept, Toil.Enjoy God's ProvisionEverything we have—our wealth, relationships, health, and even the capacity to enjoy them—is a gift from God. Acknowledging this turns entitlement into gratitude and replaces striving with trust. Accept Life's BrevityEcclesiastes frequently reflects on death, not to breed fear, but to awaken us to the preciousness of life. Acceptance of our limits and mortality grants deeper purpose and contentment in the present moment. Toil with JoyWork is not something to escape from. Ecclesiastes calls us to rejoice in our toil. True fulfillment isn't found in early retirement or unending leisure, but in the meaningful work God places before us.What Gets in the Way?Gratitude can often feel elusive in the routines of everyday life. Often, we slip into discontent when we:Take God's provision for grantedIgnore life's brevity and live mindlesslyComplain about work instead of finding purpose in itThe world's promises—especially those of financial independence or early retirement (FIRE)—can become mirages. We've probably all been there, dreaming that if we work hard and save enough, we will someday be free. But that vision of life can be so hollow because the human condition is to be oriented to purpose, to work. Even if you're retired, it's not so you can sit on a beach for 20 years.We were made to participate in God's creative, redemptive work. That's why embracing our toil with joy brings far more satisfaction than escaping it.Wealth Without Joy: A Modern ParadoxWhile many of us live more comfortably than royalty of past centuries—with cars, clean water, air conditioning, and vacations—anxiety and discontent remain widespread.Billionaires are often no happier than the rest of us. Without a grateful heart, even abundance can feel empty.The Cycle of Grateful Living isn't just about how much we have—it's about how we relate to what we have. It teaches us to stop chasing wealth and start engaging with it through the lens of joy, acceptance, and purpose.From Ecclesiastes to Jesus: A Unified MessageJesus echoes the wisdom of Ecclesiastes in Luke 12. He reminds us of the birds and flowers—simple creatures that don't worry, yet are lovingly provided for by God.“Consider the lilies, how they grow... If God so clothes the grass... how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith!” - Luke 12:27–28James 1:10–11 also makes a similar connection where riches are likened to wildflowers—beautiful for a moment, but quickly fading. The message is clear: our time is brief, but God is faithful.So, how should we respond? By living present to God's provision, content in our limitations, and faithful in our work.Ecclesiastes 5:20 offers a powerful conclusion:“He will not much remember the days of his life, because God keeps him occupied with joy in his heart.”What does this look like practically? It's about presence. A life that's not dominated by worry or comparison, but one that's centered on Jesus. It's a heart too full of gratitude to be caught up in regret.Invite Jesus Christ into this moment. Ask for help to enjoy what He's provided, to accept this season, and to do today's work with joy.Every generation has had its turn. Ours is now. The call of Ecclesiastes is to live wisely in the present, not with frantic striving, but with deep joy, humble acceptance, and faithful effort.We're like the birds and flowers. Here for a precious moment, sustained by the generous hand of God. Let's embrace the Cycle of Grateful Living.Want to Go Deeper?If you're ready to experience joy in the everyday and live a grateful life rooted in God's wisdom, check out Wisdom Over Wealth, written by John Cortines. This month, when you give a gift of $35 or more, we'll send you a copy as our way of saying thank you for supporting this ministry.

The Power of Teamwork in Achieving a Vision: "Both roles are as important as the other, because if the visionary has to do everything herself or himself, they're probably not going to make it happen." - Betty CollinsI'm so excited to bring you part one of our special Visionary Awards series, where we honor incredible women who have scaled their businesses and brought their visions to life. Today, I'm joined by two outstanding guests—Jill Frey, president and CEO of Cummins Facility Services, and Purba Majumder, an inspiring immigrant founder and CEO of Cybervation Inc., both of whom were finalists alongside me for the NAWBO Columbus Visionary Award.In this episode, we share our personal stories about what it really takes to scale a company, the winding journey of becoming a visionary, and why the people who support us along the way are just as important as the vision itself. We open up about our challenges, our proudest moments, and the vital roles of those who stand beside us—whether they're cheering us on, pouring into our growth, or simply helping us keep going.If you're a woman in business—whether you see yourself as a visionary or you're the one making things happen behind the scenes—there's something here for you. Join us for honest conversations, practical wisdom, and a big dose of inspiration from women who understand what it takes. Let's keep lifting each other up and helping one another rise.Inspiring Moments00:00 Scaling Visionary Women04:59 Grateful for NAWBO Visionary Award06:31 Trailblazer Staffing & Bistro ux Ventures10:25 Nabo's Impact on My Journey13:27 "Guiding Through Support and Wisdom"19:09 Supporting Fellow Entrepreneurs22:23 Founding Cool Tech Girls24:43 Collective Support Fuels Cool Tech Girls28:43 Women Supporting Visionary WomenHere are my top 3 takeaways for anyone passionate about leadership, growth, and supporting women in business:Scaling is a journey, not a sprint: We emphasize that true success doesn't happen overnight. Steady, thoughtful scaling, supported by a strong team, is the sustainable path forward.Visionaries aren't alone: Whether you are the one with the big dream, or the one who supports that dream, both roles are vital. Community, mentors, and even those who “put up with” your quirks help turn vision into reality.Celebrating and elevating others multiplies impact: The stories from the NAWBO Visionary Awards remind me how group celebrations, meaningful connections, and championing others' successes fuel long-term growth for all.Forward our podcast along to other Inspiring Women in your life.This is THE podcast that advances women toward economic, social, and political achievement.

Handling your moods is your right, you can make them obey,  For that is The Inherently Happy Way. [full text below] Ep. 408 - Mood Happy 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! Why are we all saddled with these various human moods? What reason is there for such a mess of sensitive interludes? The primary moods, as I call them, of Mad, Sad and Glad, And the secondary moods of Guilt, Fear and Hope-- Why are we subjected to each and every emotional doodad? What is their purpose, their measure, their scope? Why must we be victims of such strong feelings that so intrude,  Are they not a sign of great weakness and all that that may include? To that I say, nay,  It's only weakness to be at their mercy, letting them win night and day, Being able to handle them is our right, get them to obey, For that is  The Inherently Happy Way. It's a human thing, it's very plain,  Please allow me to explain! Glad is for bonding and for making close friends, Sad is for empathy and for sharing troubles and pains,  Mad is a warning of danger, and unpleasant ends. Fear is the jolt that helps us escape ropes and chains, Guilt is the shame that compels us to change and make amends, And Hope is the outlook that encourages both hearts and brains. They are tools, they are instruments, they are partners, pals, and chums, And when wielded expertly they can help you face whatever comes. So, make friends with your moods, get to know how you feel, Practice them till you own them, or they'll control your steering wheel. Only use them as needed, don't go wild, or get unhinged, And the passions that might've overwhelmed you, will barely leave you singed. Haha Yowza

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 연결된 이야기| Reflections of a Grateful Adoptee: On Family, Business & Legacy — The One with Sam White | Episode 21 (2025)Being chosen is a gift Sam White received early, and it's a legacy he's now passing on with intention. In this deeply personal and powerful episode, I sit down with Sam: entrepreneur, brand strategist, real estate investor, mentor, and proud new father.Adopted at six months and raised by Black parents in Arizona, Sam opens up about the layers of identity, healing, and quiet grief that adoptees often carry beyond childhood. He reflects on the moment he reunited with his biological siblings at age 34 and how his parents nurtured a deep sense of belonging that became the foundation for his emotional and spiritual resilience.We explore how fatherhood is reshaping his understanding of love and legacy, the joy and complexity of building a multicultural family, and the intentional ways he's raising his son with both privilege and perspective. Sam also shares the remarkable story of meeting his wife, Sarah, on a random flight, and how they've built a mission-driven life together.We also talk hustle. From emceeing trade shows in college to founding a successful DJ and events company and launching The Pivotal Investment, Sam is on a mission to democratize access to commercial real estate for Black and Brown communities. He shares the sacredness of wealth with purpose, the importance of mentorship, and why meaningful relationships remain the core of everything he builds.This episode is a gift: grounded in lived experience, and brimming with quiet truths that challenge, affirm, and uplift. If you're navigating transitions, legacy, or identity, you'll find something here that speaks directly to your soul.And when you're done, connect with Sam on Instagram @samdiego20. Tell him which part of his journey resonated most, and don't forget to share this episode with someone else who needs the reminder: your story matters, even the messy parts.

Fr. Eric Nielsen joins Patrick to Discuss Eucharistic Adoration What is Eucharistic adoration? (4:11) Why is adoration different from just praying to God in the quiet? (11:23) Pat - I go to adoration every Friday and 3rd or 5th Thursday. Went last Friday and came to the conclusion that we see the creator of everything we have. I think that's an amazing thing. How to deal with distractions during Adoration? (18:07) Patrick - Praying the Rosary. What's your opinion on that? (21:28) Break 1 Dave - Adoration...doing it for 10-12 years. Game changer. Turned my life around and made tough decisions because of it. (27:10) Linda - Question about adoration in our chapel. We have a chapel that is open to our main church. Tabernacle is easily accessible. We pray weekly in a group (group of mothers). Theresa - I was first introduced in 1976 when I was in a youth mission program. I didn't fully embrace it at that point. I was 16. in 2018...I became a regular adorer. One night it wasn't my night to be there, awoke abruptly and went to the adoration chapel to pray for someone who was dying. Next day, I found out it was a friend whose husband was dying. Appreciate the relationship with Christ. (37:02) Break 2 What is a “holy hour”? (42:57) Carol - I'm learning to do more in Adoration. Love this subject and learning so much from it. Now I really know what to do. It's helping to save lives. Grateful for RR. (46:19) Marie - I go to adoration. After Mass, we have prayer group. We cannot go to the chapel because people don't like the audible prayer. Is it equal to pray in front of the tabernacle in the church? Armando – What is the proper dress code for adoration?

In this episode of Journey to Grateful, I confront a question that's echoed in the back of my mind more than I care to admit: What more can I say about grief? It's not something others have asked — it's a doubt that creeps in on its own. Join me as I explore why this question lingers, how past comments can still influence the way I carry my grief, and why I believe continuing the conversation is one of the most healing choices we can make.

Charles was living a full life when Parkinson's disease hit. Although a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting movement, there are many medical treatments available to help with symptom management. While Levadopa, the standard of care treatment helped Charles with his symptoms of tremor, he was unable to tolerate it due to the extreme Restless Legs Syndrome he developed. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery and treatment at the Movement Disorders Center at Pacific Neuroscience Institute, has saved his life and put him on a new trajectory full of movement and joy.

Always Aim for Balance and Growth. For when you reach for dynamic sustainability, It helps you achieve not just one but both. [full text below] Ep. 406 - The Inherently Happy Rule 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 lots of rules out there describing good behavior and proper conduct, There's the Silver Rule, the Golden Rule and even the Platinum Rule too, But there's still exceptions to those rules--allow me to deconstruct: Let's start with the Golden Rule: Treat others as you want them to treat you. Sounds good--at first, but what if I don't want to be treated the same way that you do? Maybe you like brutal honesty, so you decide to attack someone while they're down, You're just following the Golden Rule--so how can that plan possibly fall through? It's because not everyone needs the same things, overwatering can make you drown. A cousin to that is the Silver Rule: Don't treat others how you don't want them to treat you. That's fine, right? Well, what if you hate it when people ask you for help when they need it?  So, you, in turn, never ask for help either, even when you could really use it too,  So, you just create a situation where nobody helps anybody and we all lose bit by bit. Then there's the Platinum Rule--well, that's got to be the best one, right? Treat others the way they want to be treated. What could go wrong with that? Well, what if they want to be mistreated because they feel they deserve spite, And the reason they feel bad is because they are bad--when they are not a doormat! The problem is--all those rules are relative, They depend on who likes to be treated how. Except one, of course, The Inherently Happy Rule: Always Aim for Balance and Growth. Now you could say that's relative too--Balance and Growth depends on what's happening now, But when you reach for dynamic sustainability it helps you achieve not just one but both. Let say you're overwhelmed, things are getting frantic and you're getting stressed, You want to give up, but you can't because you haven't finished your work yet, But if, instead, you stop trying to fight everything, which is only making you more obsessed, You'll see that treating things as connected challenges--not hardships may be your best bet. Haha Yowza
