There are seasons in the life of a church family when what's needed is not new direction, but grateful recognition—moments to pause and notice what God is doing in and through his people. Faithfulness deserves to be named, grace deserves to be acknowledged, and God's work deserves to be celebrated, not for human commendation, but for divine glory. Today's gathering is shaped by appreciation and intercession: thanksgiving for the ways God has been forming, sustaining, and using this assembly of believers, and prayer for the ways he will continue to grow his people in love, wisdom, holiness, and fruitfulness. Our praise today is offered as a grateful response to God's faithfulness and a prayerful entrusting of the future to his care — for the glory of his name and the good of his church.

Welcome to the eighteenth Monday Reset for Sports Parents, a short reflection inside The Youth Sports Parenting Tribe. Each Monday Reset brings you one word, one idea, and one mindset to help you start the week calm, clear, and connected. Today's word is Gratitude — a transformative mindset for sports parents to cultivate, shifting focus to the positives in your child's youth sports journey, like the effort put in, the lessons learned, and the simple joy of participation. It's not about ignoring challenges — it's about intentionally appreciating the small wins, the team's spirit, or even the opportunity to watch your child play, fostering a sense of abundance amid the competition. At the end of a practice or game, pause to express genuine thanks—maybe for their hustle or your time together; it reframes setbacks and builds a positive family dynamic. Take a breath. Reset. Your gratitude becomes the warm light that helps your child appreciate their own path and stay motivated through highs and lows. ParentShift course 30% off with the code TRIBE.

B"H My heart is filled with gratitude right now. For the holy heroes serving in Tzahal, in the IDF, in the American army, and for their families who carry the weight of that service with them. Their courage and devotion protect lives and stand up for what is good in this world. In Judaism there is a concept called mesirat nefesh, the giving of the soul. When a person devotes themselves completely to what matters most, they touch the highest place of the neshama, a place beyond ego and beyond the self. So many people are living with that spirit right now. For the rest of us, our task is to serve with our own mesirat nefesh. To live our purpose with devotion, to pray, to support, and to strengthen the good in the world. Hashem oz le'amo yiten. Hashem should give His people strength. Hashem yevarech et amo bashalom. May Hashem bless His people with peace. Praying for shalom for Israel, for America, for the people of Iran, and for the entire world. #Peace #IDF #Israel #Iran #USA To watch Torah Thoughts in video format, click HERE Subscribe to the Torah Thoughts BLOG for exclusive written content!

Title: The Ground and Expression of Gratitude Preacher: Ligon Duncan Series: Words From Old Friends Passage: Psalms 100:1-5

Many young people today quietly carry a heavy belief: “Maybe I'm just not enough.” In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Avik, we explore where that feeling comes from and how it can begin to shift. Avik sits down with Brayden Black, known as the “Identity Restorer,” to discuss how identity often gets buried under labels, expectations, and past mistakes. This conversation is for anyone who feels trapped by self-doubt or defined by their circumstances. You'll hear practical ways to separate who you are from what you've done, challenge limiting beliefs, and begin reclaiming a sense of purpose and personal worth. About the Guest: Brayden Black is a life coach and motivational speaker known as the “Identity Restorer.” He works with young people across the United States, helping them rediscover their identity, overcome limiting beliefs, and gain clarity about their purpose. Episode Chapters: 00:00 – Introduction: The hidden struggle of feeling “not enough” 03:02 – Meet Brayden Black, the Identity Restorer 06:09 – Brayden's personal journey through anxiety and self-doubt 08:06 – The biggest misconception about identity and worth 12:12 – Separating actions from identity: guilt vs. shame 16:10 – Circumstances, mindset, and personal control 21:50 – Practical exercise: Creating your personal “I AM” statement Key Takeaways: Your identity exists before labels, achievements, or external validation. Worth is not defined by circumstances, social status, or success. Separating actions from identity helps reduce shame and build self-respect. Gratitude and mindset can reshape how we experience the same circumstances. Creating personal “I AM” statements can strengthen confidence and self-awareness.

Everything was about to fall apart. So Jesus spoke peace. In a world of headlines, panic, and noise, Jesus speaks four words that echo across centuries: “Do not be troubled.” But this isn't a shallow self-help mantra. It's rooted in who He is: the Way, the Truth, the Life. Jesus unplugs fear and replaces it with confidence rooted in eternity.Support the show~ Changing lives with Jesus!

Ian Von sits down with R&B legend Marques Houston for a candid conversation about his 30+ year journey—from child star in Bébé's Kids and member of Immature, to solo success, acting, and co-founding Footage Films. He breaks down the impact of “Never Lie,” the golden era of '90s R&B, helping launch artists like Usher and Ty Dolla $ign, today's music industry, fatherhood, AI in creativity, and why “Naked” is his time-capsule record—plus what's next, including new films and his April 25 show at Toyota Arena.

Send a textIn this profound conversation, Tom Attig explores grief as a lifelong process of “relearning the world” after the death of a loved one. Rather than seeking closure, he emphasizes continuing love in separation, understanding grief as engagement with life's deepest mysteries rather than problems to solve, and rediscovering meaning through memory, gratitude, and connection. Through philosophical insight and compassionate storytelling, Attig reframes bereavement as a transformation—an invitation to live more consciously, love more deeply, and remain open to life even in the shadow of loss.http://griefsheart.com/Resources:https://auraverse.networkwww.SoulAwakeningStore.comwww.ClaudiuMurgan.comSupport the show

Ever caught yourself saying "when it's good, it's so good"? In this first episode of the 4-part Hard Truth Series, Sabrina breaks down why you keep falling in love with who someone could be instead of who they actually are — and why potential is just a placeholder for the grief you're avoiding. She dives into the neuroscience of the "prospective brain," the impact bias that keeps you chasing a fantasy, and the 13-year longitudinal study that explains why you lower your standards for the wrong people but can't appreciate the ones who actually show up. Sabrina gets vulnerable about her own patternsand gives you the exact reframe to stop confusing anxiety with connection. Plus, this week's tool: the Potential vs. Reality Audit, a two-column exercise to see whether you're in a relationship or a fantasy.

While he's been a consistent presence in the sport for years, Dan burst into trail running superstardom after his course record victory at the 2025 Cocodona 250.

In this episode of Redeemed Through His Blood, Scott and Deb explore gratitude as more than positive thinking—it's a way of seeing Jesus in the middle of real life, including the messy, painful, and unfair parts. Using Luke 17 and the story of the ten lepers, they unpack why gratitude isn't just about receiving blessings, but recognizing them—and why the one who returned wasn't only healed, but made whole. Along the way, they share a powerful personal moment where gratitude replaced condemnation, teaching the simple truth: gratitude is the beginning of desire—the desire to come unto Christ, receive His unspeakable gift, and walk with Him daily.

Imagine growing up in a world where energy was real, spirit was part of the conversation, and healing was something passed down through generations. That was my guest, Barbara Savin's world. In this episode, Barbara shares the powerful influence of her two grandmothers and how they shaped the path she walks today. One was a natural healer. The other lived a life of service. Between the two of them, Barbara absorbed something rare – a deep knowing that life is more than what you can see. From Brooklyn to Spiritual Awakening Raised in Brooklyn, Barbara's journey from highly sensitive child to certified hypnotherapist and spiritual life coach is layered, human, and surprisingly relatable. She didn't just inherit mystical gifts. She had to wrestle with them. And that's where it gets interesting. Barbara grew up in a time when anything spiritual was dismissed as “woo-woo.” Even with two spiritually attuned grandmothers, the outside world didn't validate what she felt. Her own mother was skeptical and often dismissive of Barbara's intuitive experiences, which created a deep inner conflict. Imagine being a sensitive child who feels everything and senses emotion in a room instantly, and then being told it's not real. That tension stayed with her for years. She often felt caught between two worlds, the practical Brooklyn life around her and the invisible energetic world humming just beneath the surface. It wasn't until her 30s, when her own health challenges brought her to a breaking point, that she stopped resisting what she already knew. Sometimes life nudges you. Sometimes it pushes. Her health crisis became a doorway. Returning to energy healing wasn't just about improving her physical well-being. It required emotional, mental, and spiritual recalibration. She had to come home to herself. By reclaiming her intuitive gifts, she regained her health and stepped into her true purpose. And here's the thing I love about Barbara's story. It's the unfolding of someone finally trusting what had always been there. Healing Amidst Trauma One of the most moving periods of her life came after 9/11. Her husband and son managed to escaped harm that day and the enormous relief and gratitude she felt pushed her into service. When invited to help with first responders she jumped at the chance. She worked in the Salvation Army tent on Staten Island, assisting first responders with their healing. Working with firefighters and others who were deeply traumatized changed her understanding of healing forever. Trauma doesn't just live in the mind. It becomes embedded in the body and ripples through the nervous system. It lingers in the energy field and touches the spirit. You don't just “get over” something like that. Healing trauma, she realized, is a return to safety on every level. Physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual. It requires presence and compassion, and simply can't be rushed. Protect Your Energy Her work during that time cemented what she already sensed as a child. You are more than your physical body, and real healing must include the unseen layers of who you are. That brings us to something we both feel strongly about: protect your energy. Barbara credits her grandmother's teachings about stepping into God's light as foundational. It's a simple but powerful image. You consciously surround yourself with light and set an intention that only love flows in and out. That's a beautiful example of energetic hygiene. Just as you brush your teeth and care for your physical body, you must tend to your energetic well-being. Barbara emphasizes daily practices like meditation, gratitude, and clear boundaries. Her methods are grounded and practical. Part of this is to be discerning about who you spend time with. You can feel the difference between someone who lifts you and someone who drains you. Your body and your energy know. She encourages you to notice who feels expansive and who feels heavy? Maintaining healthy boundaries isn't selfish. It's emotionally intelligent and preserves your vitality. Positivity Secrets When I asked Barbara about her secrets to handling the decades  with grace and vibrancy, her answer wasn't complicated. Gratitude and meditation anchor her. Every morning she takes time to reflect on what she's thankful for. Even during seasons of challenge, including her husband's health battles, she returns to presence and appreciation. Gratitude, in her view, isn't a forced positive attitude. Instead, its about alignment and it  shifts your energy field. This is how you recalibrate your nervous system. A grateful heart  reminds you that life is still offering gifts, even when circumstances feel uncertain. That practice keeps her light strong. Embrace Your Spiritual Path Barbara's journey is ultimately about listening to the inner voice that refuses to go away. The one that whispers when something looks good on paper but feels wrong in your body. The one that nudges you back toward your true path no matter how long you've ignored it. She chose to honor that voice, despite skepticism and convention. And in doing so, she built a life of fulfillment and service. There's something comforting about that. No matter how far you wander, your path is still there. Waiting, patient, and unmoved. Get Barbara's beautiful free meditation called “The Garden of Life,” which guides you through a gentle inner landscape of healing and self-discovery. It's an invitation to reconnect with your own energy and remember that the answers you seek are not outside of you. I love Barbara's message of accepting who you are, trusting your sensitivity, and honoring your intuitive gifts. You can always choose light and gratitude even after trauma. Her life is proof that when you embrace your spiritual nature and treat your energy with respect, you grow and find love, joy, and satisfaction. And if you've ever wondered whether your own intuitive nudges are real, whether that quiet inner knowing deserves your trust, Barbara's story feels like a gentle but clear answer. Yes, it does.

Have you ever felt like God brought you out of something… but you're still not experiencing the freedom you expected? You're no longer where you used to be. But you're not fully where you thought you'd be by now either. In this episode, we walk through the story of the Israelites in Exodus, Numbers, and Hebrews to explore the difference between understandable fear and hardened unbelief—and how that difference can quietly shape our lives. This conversation is for Christian women seeking clarity, peace, and faith-centered wisdom. If you've been feeling stuck, circling the same mountain, or hesitating at the edge of something God may be calling you into, this episode will help you pause and examine your heart with honesty and hope. God's Kindness in the Detour (Exodus 13:17) When God brought the Israelites out of Egypt, He did not lead them the shortest route to the Promised Land. Scripture tells us why: He knew they weren't ready for war. If they saw battle too soon, they would turn back. So He led them another way. What we see here: • God is protective. • Delays can be mercy. • The longer path may be preparation. Sometimes what feels like slow progress is actually kindness. God sees what would overwhelm you. He knows what you're ready to face—and what you're not. Standing at the Edge of the Promise (Numbers 13–14) About a year after leaving Egypt, the Israelites stood right outside Canaan. They had witnessed: • The plagues in Egypt • The parting of the Red Sea • God's daily provision in the wilderness And yet when they saw giants in the land, fear took over. Joshua and Caleb said, “The Lord is with us. Do not fear.” The rest of the people grumbled. They talked about returning to Egypt. They even wanted to stone their leaders. They were right there. The issue wasn't that they felt afraid. The issue was what they did with their fear. There is a difference between: “I'm scared, Lord—but I trust You.” And: “This feels dangerous. I'm going back.” That difference kept them out of the Promised Land. What Hebrews Says About Unbelief (Hebrews 3) Hebrews 3 looks back on this story and gives clarity: They were unable to enter because of unbelief. Not because they lacked evidence. Not because God hadn't shown Himself faithful. Because their hearts hardened. This is where the story becomes personal. Where have we: • Seen God's provision but still doubted? • Asked for guidance but resisted obedience? • Called something “wisdom” when it was actually fear? Fear can sound responsible. It can sound cautious. It can even sound spiritual. But when fear leads us away from trust and obedience, it becomes unbelief. Miracles Don't Automatically Produce Trust It's easy to think, “If God would just move in a big way, I'd never doubt again.” But the Israelites saw miracle after miracle—and still complained. External signs don't automatically create internal surrender. Trust is formed in daily obedience, not dramatic moments. You can witness faithfulness and still grumble. You can experience provision and still resist. The heart posture matters. A Simple Framework for God's Will (1 Thessalonians 5:16–18) Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing. Give thanks in all circumstances. This is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Notice how opposite this is from the Israelites' response. Instead of rejoicing, they complained. Instead of praying, they rebelled. Instead of giving thanks, they longed for what enslaved them. Imagine if they had said: “Lord, we're scared. But we remember what You've done. We trust You.” Fear may have remained. But rebellion would not have. Gratitude doesn't erase difficulty. It anchors your heart while you move forward. Time-Stamped Highlights 00:00 – Feeling delivered but not fully free 01:26 – Why God didn't lead Israel the shortest route 02:19 – Spying out the Promised Land 03:44 – Joshua and Caleb's response of faith 05:11 – The cost of hardened unbelief 06:06 – God's protective detours 07:35 – Hebrews 3 and the warning against hardened hearts 10:25 – Personal reflection: where might fear be guiding me? 11:25 – Why miracles don't guarantee obedience 11:54 – A simple picture of God's will 14:21 – Using this story as a mirror, not just history Key Takeaways • God's detours may be protection, not punishment. • Fear is human. Unbelief is a choice. • Being delivered doesn't mean your mindset has fully shifted. • Gratitude and prayer protect your heart from drifting. • Obedience often requires moving forward while still feeling afraid. Pause and ask yourself: Where might fear be disguising itself as wisdom in my life? What has God already shown me that I'm hesitating to trust? What would quiet, faithful obedience look like today? If You're Feeling Stuck If this episode stirred something in you, you may not need more information—you may need clarity. The More Energy & Peace Session is a private, 60-minute, faith-centered conversation where we: • Identify what may be draining your energy • Clarify what's creating frustration or indecision • Map out wise, grounded next steps No overwhelm. No complicated protocols. Just focused insight and direction. If you're ready to move forward with intention instead of circling the same questions, you can book your session at: herholistichealing.com/peace Wherever you are, don't stay stuck in indecision. Clarity creates movement. And faithful movement changes everything.

In the final episode of the Abrahamic Starter Series, we step back and ask a bold question: If a man actually lived this out — what would his life look like? Not the vague, lonely retirement story our culture sells, but the good life God designed. A faithful husband. A fruitful home. Grandchildren around the table. Debt-free. Assets compounding. A legacy stretching 200 years into the future. We've torn down the broken pop-Christian script. We've reclaimed dominion, dynasty, sacrificial headship, and kingdom-minded money. Now we paint the picture of where that road leads. If you're a dad in your 30s wondering whether there's more than the slow fade of average church life — this episode shows you what you're building toward. This is the Abrahamic vision of the good life.

What if the Bible doesn't just give us advice about money—but reshapes the way we think about it entirely? The messages we absorb from culture shape our fears, our goals, and even where we look for security. But Scripture offers a different foundation—one that brings clarity, freedom, and purpose to every financial decision. Ron Blue—co-founder of Kingdom Advisors and a pioneer in biblical financial stewardship—joined the show today to share how Scripture reframes our assumptions about money and calls us into a deeper, more faithful way of living. The False Promise of Security One of the most powerful cultural assumptions about money is that it provides security. We spend much of our lives trying to answer the question: How much is enough? But Scripture turns that question upside down. True security, the Bible teaches, isn't found in wealth, savings, or income—it's found in God alone. Culture urges us to pursue more, feeding discontent and anxiety. Scripture calls us instead to pursue faithfulness. Money can create the illusion of certainty. But it cannot protect us from life's ultimate realities. It cannot buy peace. It cannot purchase eternity. Only God provides the kind of stability that lasts forever. Contentment Is a Spiritual Choice Many people feel that no matter how much they have, it never feels like enough. Scripture addresses that tension directly. Hebrews 13:5 calls us to “be content with what you have,” reminding us that contentment isn't a financial outcome—it's a spiritual posture. Contentment grows when we trust that God knows our needs and promises to provide for them. Gratitude replaces striving. Peace replaces fear. Joy replaces comparison. Fear often sits beneath our financial habits—the fear of not having enough or losing what we already have. But Scripture gently redirects our hearts: God is our provider, and He will supply what we need when we need it. From Ownership to Stewardship Another assumption Scripture overturns is the idea that what we have belongs to us. The Bible consistently teaches that God is the true owner of everything. He created it. He sustains it. And for a season, He entrusts resources to us. That changes the central question of our financial lives. Ownership asks: What do I want? Stewardship asks: What does God want? When we see money as something entrusted to us rather than as something we possess, it reshapes how we spend, save, give, and plan. We begin to live not as controllers, but as faithful trustees—managing God's resources for His purposes. Scripture also helps us understand a difficult reality: people receive different amounts of resources. God loves each of us equally, but He treats us uniquely. He knows what each person needs and what each can faithfully steward. That perspective invites trust instead of comparison. Much like a loving parent treats each child according to their personality and needs, God provides for each of His children differently. What we have today is not random—it reflects His wisdom and care. The Next Faithful Step When Scripture reshapes our understanding of money, the goal isn't perfection—it's faithfulness. The question becomes simple and practical: What is my next faithful step? Not how much more can I accumulate. Not how secure can I make myself. But how can I steward what God has entrusted to me today? That perspective brings freedom. It replaces pressure with purpose and transforms money from a source of anxiety into a tool for worship, generosity, and trust. Because in the end, the Bible doesn't just change what we do with money—it changes what we believe about it, and ultimately, who we trust to provide. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions: I have about $40,000 in credit card debt, and I'm trying to decide the best way to tackle it. Should I pursue credit counseling or consider a home equity loan—and why might credit counseling be the better option? I want to be a faithful steward of what God has entrusted to me, and I'm trying to understand the difference between tithing and offerings. I haven't been giving a full 10% of my gross income, and I'm wondering if I'm missing the mark. Can you offer some clarity? I'm about to apply for Social Security and want to know the best way to do it. Is it better to apply online, by phone, or in person at a local office?

In this episode, I'm sharing the real reason I traveled to Tanzania and trekked to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro - the roof of Africa.This wasn't a fitness goal. It wasn't a bucket-list flex. It was a spiritual pilgrimage rooted in a story that began decades ago, back when my identity was water polo and I wore “U.S. youth team” and “junior national team” like a second skin. There was another athlete from Oregon on those teams - Jeff. We trained together, competed internationally together, and even became rivals during high school season. That kind of brotherhood doesn't disappear.After college, Jeff chose to travel. He was offered the chance to summit Kilimanjaro. On the way to the gates, the bus taking the group went over a cliff and everyone died. Jeff never even reached the mountain. When I heard the news, something locked in: one day, I would climb that mountain.Life moved forward. Military. Fitness. Building businesses. Years went by. And then, twenty-five years later, while volunteering in hospice with terminally ill patients, one woman - lucid in her final days - looked at me and said, “Jeff came to see me.” Then she delivered the message that hit like lightning: “It's time for you to summit the mountain.” When she said “Kilimanjaro,” I knew the time had arrived.So once Tribe Class 003 completed in December 2025, I began planning. In late January I flew to Tanzania, adjusted to the jet lag, and started the trek. And before I tell you anything else, I want to honor the people who made it possible: for 12 clients, it took 42 porters, guides, chefs, and staff carrying tents, food, tables, chairs, toilets - building camp, breaking camp, and running past us every single day to set everything up again. Respect. Gratitude. Always.Twelve of us began. Three of us reached the summit. One man had to be airlifted out. Another suffered such severe altitude sickness he forgot who he was for 36 hours.The mountain was both hard and easy.Hard because of environment: exposure to sun, temperature regulation, dehydration risk, dust and shale that make each step slide backward. Easy because of mind: I didn't train for this trek. I bought my boots days before leaving. No altitude acclimation. No prep hikes. What I did have was commitment. Single-mindedness. There was no story in my mind where I didn't summit.While others distracted themselves with constant talking and data - filling space to escape discomfort - I returned to one thing: attention. I repeated a mantra thousands of times.That mantra became my mind's projection: love, compassion, selflessness - instead of pain, suffering, and resistance.And this is the lesson I'm offering you:Your life is like a dream. The mind projects the images, but consciousness guides the dream through attention. Put your attention on fear, and you live a nightmare. Put your attention on presence, and you live in peace.Commitment is not attachment to an outcome.Commitment is devotion to the moment that leads to the outcome.Every outcome is a succession of moments.Every summit is a succession of steps.So take one step at a time - fully - without distraction.There is only the Self.

Are we ignoring the most important issues of justice while fighting over trivial things? In this episode of the Voxology podcast, Mike and Tim tackle the heavy reality of the Epstein files and the church's response to systemic injustice. Join us for an honest conversation about anger, accountability, and a powerful message on faith. ⚖️ JUSTICE AND THE EPSTEIN FILES Things get serious as Mike reads a phenomenal post by Pastor Brian Drinkwine. We dive deep into the recent news surrounding the Epstein files, the Department of Justice, and political figures. ⛪ THE CHURCHS RESPONSE This is a raw look at how American Christianity has become skilled at straining gnats and swallowing camels. Why do we go to war over church carpet colors but stay silent on the exploitation of the vulnerable? We discuss the heartbreak of losing trust in leaders and the challenge of Matthew 20. Jesus asks if we can drink the cup of reckoning without rushing to defend our political tribes.
