“We're talking about giving space to practice. Not only practice the relationships but also practice managing money.” -Sean Maher Most people plan their estate down to the last dollar, but forget to prepare for the emotional fallout that almost always comes from a lack of proper communication between family members. Our hosts, Stephanie McCullough and Kevin Gaines, sit down with husband and wife team Sean and Jill Maher to talk about their book The Greatest Gift: 9 Principles for the Transfer of Your Legacy Along with Your Wealth, which journeys into the emotional side of passing down wealth and family legacy. The idea for the book came after Sean, a financial advisor, saw a well-planned inheritance fall apart when a family started fighting after their parents passed. He brought the issue home to Jill, a mental health counselor, who pointed out that what he was really seeing wasn't a planning problem—it was grief. Together, they've come up with nine key principles that help families avoid drama and stay connected regarding inheritance. The big takeaway? It's not just about the money. No matter how much (or little) you're passing on, what matters most is communication, shared values, and emotional safety. Jill and Sean suggest families start having small, low-pressure meetings early, while everyone's still around to talk things through. It's about creating space for honest conversations, building trust, and setting expectations. Their advice blends practical planning with emotional wisdom, encouraging people to treat legacy as a relationship, not just a transaction. At the heart of it all, their message is simple: don't avoid the tough conversations—have them, and carry them out with love.

A gift is a freely given item given to someone whom the giver believes is worthy to receive it. God deemed us worthy to receive the greatest gift of salvation through Christ, though we have failed to believe in Him many times. He just asks us to receive and believe Jesus Christ, the greatest gift, which connects us again to God, having paid the ultimate price that forever sealed us as children of God, giving us more than salvation, but peace, blessings, joy, and love.

Salvation is the greatest gift you and I could ever receive, and it is made possible by the resurrection of Jesus. Today we celebrate Resurrection Sunday and bring a close to Holy Week 2025 by looking at two simple but profound verses, Ephesians 2:8-9, as we learn how Jesus has purchased the greatest gift for us.

Please go back and read the scriptures yourselves to include what is appropriate for your family. We begin our story with Jesus speaking with Pilate and end with the crucifixion. The kids will hear: -The meaning of the torn veil (listen to episode #281 to go further) -This was God's plan; there were no mistakes, no surprises. Jesus chose to lay down His life, and by doing so, Jesus took the weight of every sin, past, present, and future. -It's not always as it seems. The cross is not the end of the story. We have hope because of what happened 3 days later! --------------------- To enjoy bonus content for the episodes which also supports us, go here To connect with us go here For our free read-a-loud pdf book get it free hereSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Magical Moments, we're diving deep into the parts of ourselves we often reject - the habits, emotions, and traits we wish would just disappear. But what if these very parts held the keys to our greatest strengths? I share my personal journey of discovering how my inner fighter, a part of me I once tried to suppress, actually holds incredible power and purpose. Through curiosity, compassion, and intentional dialogue with these shadow aspects, we can begin to realign them, rather than push them away. Learn how to reframe the traits you dislike into gifts that serve your purpose! I go over a powerful practice for connecting with and transforming these parts of yourself that you once disliked until qualities that you love. Join me in exploring how to cultivate a relationship with your shadows—because true transformation begins when we stop resisting and start listening.

Medicare Advantage Minute, content provided by Diane Omdahl: MA plans typically have two caps on out-of-pocket, unreimbursed costs; one on the drug benefits and one on the medical expenses. Your Medicare Benefits 2024: How does Medicare cover Concierge Care? Not at all. How does Medicare cover Continuous Glucose Monitors? Very likely if your doctor asserts that you meet the criteria for eligibility. Some purchasers of Medicare supplement plans are risk averse and afraid of the very limited cost sharing imposed by the low priced High Deductible "High Value" Plan G. State birthday rules to the rescue! More and more states are mandating rights to change Medicare supplement plans under certain circumstances without having to show evidence of good health.

What if planning for the end of life could be one of the greatest gifts you give your loved ones? As your host, Suzanne O'Brien, I unravel the complexities of end-of-life conversations, inviting a global audience from Canada to Thailand to join this critical dialogue. Together, we confront the challenges often associated with discussing end-of-life wishes, offering practical insights to help families navigate these sensitive discussions with empathy and understanding. Through powerful narratives and expert advice, we aim to transform these conversations from fear-inducing to empowering, ensuring that personal quality of life preferences are clearly communicated and respected. Our conversation takes a deeper turn as we explore the significance of advance directives and the peace of mind they bring to both individuals and their families. Sharing a touching story about the complications that arise in their absence, we highlight the necessity of proactive planning. Emphasizing the importance of comfort, dignity, and cultural considerations, we provide guidance on how to ensure your end-of-life decisions align with your values and beliefs. With openness and compassion, we encourage listeners to engage in these conversations, highlighting the profound impact of having one's wishes documented and understood. Creating a supportive environment for end-of-life planning is crucial, and we delve into innovative approaches like the "death cafe" concept to foster open dialogue. By setting specific dates for family meetings, utilizing tools like video calls, and involving loved ones in the process, we advocate for a comprehensive strategy that normalizes and celebrates the natural cycle of life. Join us for an enlightening session that not only educates but inspires, as we collectively embrace the sacred act of planning for a "good death" that honors and respects our deepest wishes.

Because God has said that love is our highest calling, we must use our gifts to love one another. 1 Corinthians 12:27–13:3 (ESV): 27 Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it. 28 And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues. 29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles? 30 Do all possess gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? 31 But earnestly desire the higher gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way. 13 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.

Wisdom Key #137
Carol Offen and Betsy Crais know all too well the exhilaration, separately, of being a living donor and a 2-time organ recipient.Carol's adult, college-age son was in need of a kidney. Carol became his donor. Betsy Crais's evaluation for gastric problems in her thirties revealed polycystic kidney disease. When she was in her fifties she became the grateful recipient of a kidney donation from a living donor. Many years later, she required a 2nd kidney and, to everyone's surprise, a liver. Again a living donor stepped up to donate a kidney but because she needed a liver at the same time, she needed a deceased donor. Not receiving them would have committed her to dialysis indefinitely while also risking death from liver failure.These two expressive women knew each other since their daughters childhoods. They came together again after their own kidney experiences when they decided to collaborate on authoring a book that would lay bare the plight of recipients and the path of becoming a living donor."There is a 6-8 yr. wait for a deceased kidney donor and 90,000 people on the waiting list."CONNECT WITH CAROL & BETSY:Carol: carol.kidneydonorhelp@gmail.com; her website: www.kidneydonorhelp.comBetsy: bcrais@med.unc.eduBook: The Insider's Guide to Living Kidney Donation: Everything You Need to Know If You Give (or Get) the Greatest Gift

So, did you get anything good for Christmas?...
In this special Christmas episode of The Crosswalk Devotional, we reflect on the true meaning of giving and how the greatest gifts we receive are often the ones we give to others. While Christmas is a season filled with presents, festivities, and family, it also serves as a reminder of the ultimate gift God gave to the world—His Son, Jesus Christ. His life and message challenge us to live a life of generosity, kindness, and love toward others. Join the Conversation: We’d love to hear your thoughts on the power of giving and how it shapes your Christmas experience. Share with us on social media @LifeaudioNetwork or via email. How do you prioritize giving during the holiday season? What have been some of the most meaningful gifts you’ve given or received, and how have they impacted your life? SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts:Your Daily Prayer: https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/Your Daily Bible Verse: https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-bible-verse/ Full Transcript Below: The Greatest Gifts You'll Get are the Ones You Give By Keri Eichberger In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ (Acts 20:35) Have you ever felt a tender sweet feeling well and stir up deep in the pit of your core? That with rich smooth waves swells through your soul, and sneaks all the way up as a soft lump in your throat. Then attempting to squeeze tears to the brim of your sight. And not because you’re sad or scared or anything bad at all. But for the sake of pure joy. I’ve cried several happy tears, and they are always a divine treat. Moments I see God’s blessings of compassion so clearly. And I had one of those encounters last week. My Thursday morning bible study had just wrapped another session of leaning in to learn more about Jesus together. My favorite few hours of the week by the way. We had been discussing an opportunity to do something special to kick off the holiday season, when Michelle suggested we adopt a specific family to bless and shower with gifts. It was the beginning of such a beautiful conversation. One that enveloped every single one of us in the room with smiles and obvious excitement. You could hear and see the joy unfold and unleash as we went from talking over which few items we would fulfill on the list for the foster family of twelve, to asserting our uncontainable eagerness to cover every single want and need they’d referenced. We couldn’t hold back. The ideas and generous hearts swirling around the room became contagious and overflowing. Emily, sitting right beside me and with a large grin, stated what we were all deeply feeling: how great of a blessing this big gesture would surely be to them. And all of a sudden it struck me. I honestly had no idea how any of the receivers would react, or the impact our gifts would have. But I knew one thing for sure. This opportunity was changing me. Yes, we were all beaming with joy to bless, but the truer truth was: we were the ones undeniably being blessed. What a joy. Something I bet you long for now and always too. Right? I know the holidays can sometimes present a struggle to find the joy we hope for in the sweet season of supposed peace and good tidings. Because—whether we are entering this Christmas without a loved one for the first time, with a new shift in family dynamics, or experiencing some other form of suffering stealing our hope and joy—expectations can run high, and in typical fashion the world fails to measure up making joy difficult to muster up. I know this struggle. I’ve been navigating my own hard season. But in that moment, in a room filled with hearts looking outward in love to serve, I was profoundly reminded of the absolute joy found in giving. The remarkable blessing in the act of blessing. Yes, we are responding in obedience when we love on, serve, and share our resources with others. And these are pleasing gifts to God. But make no mistake, he is ever so delighted to share back with you and me the sweet gift and blessing of joy too. An infectious fulfilling joy you’ll find when you offer generous blessings to his beloved children. Intersecting Faith and Life: In what ways are you giving and serving this season? Would it bless you to experience some increased doses of joy? It always does, friend. Today or tomorrow, consider blessing someone. It can be a small token, a simple act, a community effort, or an anonymous encouragement. Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ And what better time of year to honor the Lord and give than Christmas time. When Christians all around the world come together to celebrate Jesus, our Savior. The greatest gift we were so generously given. The time of year—when in our overflow of praise to the Father for sending his son and every blessing he brings—we have the opportunity to reflect the light and hope many are longing and praying for. This precious time we have the honor of offering the light of hope we have in him. And find the privilege in return of refreshing our hope, light, and joy in him. Let’s join him in being a gift and light to others. Allowing the light and joy to well up within our souls–just like it did for me last week–and thus begin to reflect, multiply, and magnify light all around us. And all throughout the world. For the sake of Jesus—the light and hope of all the world. Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
