Growing up in a “make 100K, spend 110” household, Justin Buonomo watched money chaos tear his family apart two bankruptcies, cars repossessed, even losing the family dog when they lost their home. At 18, he received an $80,000 settlement from a childhood car accident… and promptly repeated the same patterns he'd seen modeled. That painful experience plus later work on the business side of Johns Hopkins Medicine set him on a decade-long quest to understand money through a different lens: biblical wisdom, proven financial strategy, and intentional stewardship. Today, Justin is the CEO and founder of Journey to Financial Freedom, where he and his team help faith-based individuals break generational cycles, heal money trauma, and step into a life that honors both God and their goals. In this episode, Justin shares why budgeting is not punishment but the primary tool God can use to increase your freedom, options, and peace of mind when it's taught the right way. He explains why most financial programs fail long-term: they try to “fix” behaviors without ever addressing the beliefs and subconscious programming formed between ages 7–10. You'll hear how childhood experiences around scarcity, bankruptcy, or “rich people are bad” scripts keep showing up in your adult bank account, why “money is the root of all evil” is one of the most misquoted verses in the Bible, and how to align your finances with God's heart instead of fear or greed. Justin also unpacks his Good Steward Program, the crucial role of accountability and community, and how mentorship can give you “wisdom without the wounds” in both personal finance and entrepreneurship. Quotes: “Finances that work take work. There's no quick solution but when you're taught by the right person with the right intentions, it doesn't have to feel confusing or restrictive.” “Your external wealth is just a reflection of your internal wealth. If you only manage behaviors and never heal the beliefs, the old habits always find their way back.” “Money isn't the problem. Greed and idolatry are. God calls us not to ignore money, but to steward it.” Resources: The Good Steward Justine Buonomo on Linkedln

This week on I Hate Critics, we're breaking down the latest theatrical releases hitting screens the weekend of February 20th. It's a lineup filled with crime, thrills, and plenty of dark twists. Here's what we're covering: How to Make a Killing A darkly comedic crime thriller that dives into the chaos that unfolds when ordinary people find themselves in extraordinary—and deadly—circumstances. Greed, bad decisions, and escalating consequences fuel this fast-paced story where one wrong move leads to another. Does it deliver sharp satire and suspense, or does it miss the mark? We weigh in. Psycho Killer This horror-thriller throws audiences into the mind of a relentless murderer, blending slasher elements with psychological tension. Stylized violence and cat-and-mouse suspense aim to keep viewers on edge—but is it a fresh take on the genre or a retread of familiar territory? We break down the scares, the storytelling, and the body count. Crimes of Passion A steamy neo-noir crime drama where desire and danger collide. When obsession takes hold, lines between love, betrayal, and criminality blur. With heightened drama and provocative themes, this one sparks plenty of conversation. Is it an engaging throwback to erotic thrillers of the past, or does it struggle to find its voice? As always, we share our honest reactions, sharp debates, and maybe even a few laughs along the way.

Jason Abreu grew up in a good family, on track to become a lawyer, until the recession blew up his plans and pushed him into the New York City nightlife scene. What started as legit nightclub promoting slowly turned into moving drugs through NYC clubs, big money, fast nights, and a double life he thought he had under control. Then undercover cops took him down, and Jason was sent to New York state prison. He got out, went right back to the game, and got caught again, earning a second trip upstate. In this episode, Jason sits down with me and breaks down exactly how it happened: the first bad decision, how the nightclub world really works, the rush of easy money, the takedown, and what New York state prison is actually like on the inside, from daily politics to survival _____________________________________________ #NYC #NewYorkStatePrison #PrisonLife #UndercoverCops #DrugDealing #NightclubCrime #TrueCrime #prisonstories _____________________________________________ Thank you to 300 LETTERS for sponsoring this episode: Visit http://300letters.org/ to learn more or get support.

"Sin is simply the fruit of idolatry" Jesus declared that his disciples would be his witnesses “to the ends of the earth.” Early Christians lived out this proclamation in powerful and palpable ways. Today we struggle to witness to those close to us, let alone to those at the ends of the earth. This series offers a glimpse into ways early Christians witnessed. Impacted?

https://enlighteninglife.com/greed-grift-graft-spiritual-industry/We are watching, in real time, the collapse of the guru era — the for-profit spiritual industry built on glamour, paid access, and manufactured enlightenment. This is not only about Deepak Chopra's infamous relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, although that plays a part. For nearly two decades I've witnessed people pour their faith, money, and power into authors and teachers who positioned themselves as the sole keepers of truth. I knew it could not and would not last, something I have been saying for many years. I have been part of the spiritual world longer than most of the people who are now writing public apologies. While others built high-ticket empires and declared themselves enlightened, I did my work quietly, consistently, and with integrity. I turned down publishers, refused to share stages with those I thought were fraudsters, and never sold access to myself as a product. So this moment of reckoning does not surprise me. The truth always rises. And the collapse of the guru economy was inevitable. Now the curtain has finally been pulled back and people are left wondering whom to trust. My work as a spiritual mentor, teacher, and guide began by accident, first in 1991 when I started a spiritual group in Houston, Texas that quickly grew to include hundreds of members. Then in 2004, when I answered a calling that required me to give up a career I loved in business and technology. I never saw myself as a ‘leader,' I did not want to be a ‘guru,' I just wanted to help people find their own path and learn how to be in control of their own energy. Since 2004 I have written 8 books, all self-published, all best sellers. No ‘famous' author has ever written a promotional blurb for me, I was not part of their crowd. I have written over 5000 articles, started the first internet-based live weekly broadcast in March 2004 that I still host today. I started teaching online courses in March 2004, an early pioneer in online training. Read the rest of the article on the blog at I have millions of followers and students – but I do not have millions of social media followers. You have probably never heard of me, and I am OK with that.

EPISODE OVERVIEW In this first installment of our Lenten series on The Seven Deadly Sins, Deacon Chris explores the spiritual roots of gluttony and greed. Through the lens of Genesis and the Temptation of Jesus in the desert, we discover that the real battle is not about food or money — it is about trust. Temptation begins when we believe God is small. From there, we grasp for substitutes. This episode challenges us to examine: How we use comfort to numb deeper hunger How we cling to control instead of trusting the Father How Lent can enlarge our desire for God KEY TAKEAWAYS Hunger is not sinful — it can be holy. Gluttony is the refusal to be empty. Greed is the fear of dependence. The devil tempts us to live as orphans. Jesus overcomes temptation by remaining the Son. Freedom begins with a pause and a simple prayer. PRACTICAL CHALLENGE Before reaching for your default comfort, pray: “Jesus, what am I really hungry for?” Wait five minutes. Reclaim your freedom. SCRIPTURE REFERENCES Genesis 3:1–7 Romans 5:12–19 Matthew 4:1–11
Lent 2026 begins with a new long-term journey for Central Vineyard: over the next seven years, we'll move through the Deadly Sins FOR LENT, one each Lent, as we let Jesus reform what deforms us. In this opening message from Luke 4, we explore Lent as preparation, not punishment — a wilderness season where truth, repentance, fasting and generosity can make us ready for resurrection life. We also begin with a light introduction to the Deadly Sins and highlight greed, naming how the quiet drive for “more” can shrink trust, distort vision, and harden the soul. To counter this, we are invited to practise generosity and simplicity, and rediscover the freedom of knowing Christ is enough.
The pursuit of “more” can quietly entrap the heart, convincing us that just a little extra—money, success, status—will finally bring peace. Yet Scripture reminds us that “godliness with contentment is great gain.” True contentment is not having everything we want, but trusting the hands shaping our lives and resting in the peace we already have with God through Christ.The message contrasts the false promise of riches with the greater treasure found in pursuing righteousness, faith, love, and godliness. Greed is more than loving money—it is asking money to provide what only God can give. Instead of striving harder for satisfaction, believers are called to replace false treasures with the lasting hope rooted in God's love. Through reflection, prayer, and even practical steps like examining our budgets, this sermon challenges us to consider where our hearts are anchored and invites us to pursue contentment grounded in Christ alone.Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:6-11Guest Speaker: Nick Heusterberg
David Roberts spent nearly four decades in finance—starting on Wall Street in 1983 and joining Angelo Gordon in 1993, when the firm was a 15-person shop managing about $300M. By the time he left, the firm managed roughly $50B in assets, and David contributed to that growth by helping build and launch several of the firm's businesses. After retiring, he created Sparks From Culture, a widely read Substack, which provides its nearly 9,000 readers with “weekly personal essays on wealth, status, and family from someone with generational wealth, writing with transparency.”Our host, Ross Overline, is one of David's readers.In this conversation, David and Ross explore the hardest questions finance leaders rarely discuss publicly: How do you know when you have “enough”? Why does comparison keep resetting our definition of success? What are the risks of wealth concentration?They discuss inequality, philanthropy, competing views of capitalism's current state, and how greed often shows up as self-justification. David makes the case for generosity as a stabilizing force in society—and shares how he's translated these beliefs into real, high-impact giving.The episode closes with a simple but unforgettable principle: the butterfly effect—small acts of generosity can change a life more than you'll ever know.Meet David David Roberts is a retired Partner of Angelo Gordon, where he joined in 1993, helping build and scale investment platforms across real estate, structured credit, and net lease. After retiring in 2022, he briefly served in public service as Senior Advisor to Maryland's Secretary of Commerce.In recent years, David has become a thoughtful public voice through his Substack newsletter Sparks From Culture (no payment necessary). All proceeds from paid subscriptions are donated to the Robin Hood Foundation, reflecting David and his wife Debbie's long-standing commitment to impact-driven giving.He holds a B.S. from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
Epstein List Meltdown, RFK & Kid Rock's “Bro Workout,” and NYC's Print-Money Housing Plan Dan and Corey riff on the awkwardly named “12 day war” and the possibility of another Iran conflict, arguing U.S. war cycles and shifting goalposts (from nukes to missiles/protests) mirror past regime-change disasters like Libya, Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan. They spend time on Epstein, insisting elites across both parties are implicated, questioning why there's no major public uprising, and describing how internet “fog” and clips like the Leslie Wexner deposition hot-mic muddy real accountability. Comedy bits include Dan's vivid dream about arranging a Jake Paul–sanctioned fight with Tim Pool, plus a long roast of an RFK Jr./Kid Rock workout video. They mock AOC's Munich foreign-policy “word salad,” praise Tim Burchett's anti-DOJ/uniparty rant, and hammer NYC socialist-style housing proposals (government-funded rent, printing money), warning rent caps and higher property taxes lead to slums. The episode closes by tying inflation to war spending (via a Dave Smith clip) and criticizing Democrats for not releasing Epstein files or pursuing indictments sooner. 00:00 Welcome to Libservative: War Jokes & the ‘12-Day War' Name 02:02 This Week's Rundown: AOC, Aliens, Epstein Fallout & More 02:59 Cutting Back on Booze = Vivid Dreams (Jake Paul vs Tim Pool) 06:36 RFK Jr + Kid Rock's ‘Ultra-Gay' Workout Video Breakdown 11:17 Epstein List: Why No Mass Protests & Why ‘It's All of Them' 18:11 Wexner Deposition Hot Mic & How the Internet Warps Everything 23:50 Accountability Crisis: Monarchy vs ‘Republic, If You Can Keep It' 28:50 DC Is One Party: Shutdown Votes, Schumer/Pelosi, and the Massey Feud 34:47 Iran War Watch: Mission Accomplished Theater & Moving Goalposts 41:08 Regime Change Blowback: Libya, Iraq, Syria as Warnings 42:45 War Isn't a Marvel Movie: The Real Costs of “Quick” Strikes 45:39 Ron Paul Was Right: Predictable Middle East Outcomes & Inflation at Home 46:56 Escalation Signals: Base Evacuations, Military Assets, and Israel's Endgame 49:10 “They Want to Be Freed” Myth: Rally-'Round-the-Flag & Speaking for Other Nations 55:53 From Foreign Wars to Domestic Freedom: Ali, Hampton, MLK & Class vs Race 01:04:43 Pivot to NYC Politics: Zoran Mamdani's Housing Plan Under the Microscope 01:07:18 ‘Housing Is a Right'?

The core message centers on Jesus' teaching in Mark 7 that true defilement comes not from external things entering the body, but from sinful attitudes and desires that proceed from within the heart, including greed (described as an "evil eye"). Greed is portrayed as an excessive, selfish craving for more than needed, which can take root inwardly and lead to harm if unchecked. The sermon contrasts this with the importance of guarding the heart, appreciating God's provision for needs (not endless wants), and maintaining joy through laughter as a healing force. Ultimately, believers are called to prioritize inner purity, contentment, and trust in God over material pursuits, while embracing humor and lightness in life.

The family's trusted in-house doctor insisted the deaths were from natural causes, but the nurses caring for the patients began to question his treatment methods and the care being provided.

Send a textREPRISE - Ken welcomes pastor, historian, and special advisor to the President at Baylor University, Dr. Malcolm Foley. Just this month, his new book - The Anti-Greed Gospel: Why the Love of Money Is the Root of Racism and How the Church Can Create a New Way Forward - has just been released. Dr. Foley shares something of his faith and spiritual journey. As an undergraduate at Washington University in St. Louis, he majored in Finance and the Classics. After earning an M. Div. at Yale Divinity School, he completed his Ph.D. at Baylor. His dissertation focussed on the history of lynching in America, and the responses of African American Protestants to the horror of it all. Ken and Malcolm unpack the thesis of his new book: that racism is rooted in greed. They talk about his concept of racialized capitalism, the dominance of white supremacy, the witness of the “Church Fathers” and the biblical passages that deal with greed and wealth. In the 1987 movie Wall Street, Gordon Gekko (played by Michael Douglas) declares, “Greed is good!” Dr. Foley disagrees. He takes a deep dive into the reality of lynching and the use of violence and terror to subjugate black folks. It's a hard look at history. They talk about Malcolm's heroes in the movement: Martin Luther King, Malcolm X (for whom he was named), and Ida B. Wells among many others. Toward the end of their lively conversation, Ken asks Dr. Foley about the current weaponization of phrases like DEI, Woke, and CRT which do not appear in the book. Don't miss Malcolm's response.

When Matt aggressively defends a girl from attackers, it's clear Daredevil's instincts are still right under the surface — even if he's trying to bury that life. A mysterious demonic force possesses Elektra and turns her against Matt. During their fight, his lost memories begin resurfacing — her name, their past, everything. He frees her through prayer, but the entity warns they're only the first wave. Matt refuses to abandon the priesthood, yet the pull of Daredevil grows stronger. Online smears claim St. Nick's is a criminal training ground, bringing police and CPS to the door. As Daredevil, Matt traces the lies to Ben Urich and the Daily Bugle — who's shockingly possessed by a demon — and learns about a new gang called The Heat rising under Bullseye. Matt begins realizing these possessions aren't random. The pattern clicks when She-Hulk is also overtaken. After Matt frees her, Doctor Strange arrives with the truth: the Seven Deadly Sins have manifested as demons, and they followed Matt back from Hell. Strange sends him on a spiritual trial that returns him to New York wearing a white Daredevil suit, symbolizing a holy war rather than street justice. Trying to stop the spread, Matt clashes with a demon-controlled Wolverine (Lust) in a brutal, city-spanning fight. Instead of winning through force, Matt prays and drives the demon out. Proving faith is his greatest weapon in this new battle. Meanwhile, gang war erupts in Hell's Kitchen. Daredevil and Elektra confront The Heat and Bullseye, only to discover Wilson Fisk is backing the operation — who is also supernaturally empowered by the demon of Greed, which makes him stronger and more cunning than ever. This was part of a 60th anniversary issue that will be this week's spotlight. At St. Nick's, Jason — a troubled boy whose father died in a past Daredevil-related disaster — learns Matt's secret and runs away, believing Daredevil ruins lives. Bullseye manipulates the boy while demonic forces begin directly attacking the orphanage. After repeated setbacks, Matt confronts a painful truth: he's been guilty of greed too, trying to keep both lives — priest and vigilante. Accepting he can't do both, he burns his clerical clothes and offers one final prayer, choosing to serve God the only way left to him — as Daredevil. As the year closes, Jason is still missing and there's whispers of a monster haunting Hell's Kitchen. Matt is fully back in the mask full time and appears determined to take on whatever is coming.

Message Take Aways:1. Greed and envy led King Ahab and Jezebel to conspire against Naboth wrongly believing their evil would go unpunished—“A false witness will not go unpunished,And he who speaks lies shall perish.” Proverbs 19:92. The Lord saw the wicked conduct of King Ahab and Jezebel and, in response, issued a pronouncement of condemnation—“And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.” Hebrews 4:133. King Ahab responded to the word of the Lord with contrition resulting in mercy from the Lord—“Who is a God like You, Pardoning iniquity And passing over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in mercy.” Micah 7:18
Gail shares her investigations into meat industry practices, exploring how exorbitant slaughterhouse production line speeds in a consolidated slaughter industry affect animals as they are being handled and killed, and how the proliferation of massive factory farms impacts animals being raised in intensive confinement.She spent decades in the field documenting violations against farm animals and in the office preparing cases and writing about her investigations in articles and books. Her efforts to expose and prosecute animal abusers were often thwarted by network television producers and by law enforcement authorities. Producers considered her findings too disturbing. The law refused to prosecute abusers. Instead they provided cover for the meat industry---a billion-dollar industry.She gives an inside view behind the closed doors of U.S. slaughterhouses and factory farms. She also shared her challenges and successes in documenting and exposing the findings.As a memoir, Out of Sight has been described by reviewers as a “detective story” and a “page turner” that they “can't put down," probably for her personal challenges related to her diagnosis with a rare medical visual condition she shares in our conversation.Gail's web pageThe Humane Farming AssociationHer most recent book: Out of Sight An Undercover Investigator's Fight for Animal Rights and Her Own SurvivalHer first book: Slaughterhouse The Shocking Story of Greed, Neglect, and Inhumane Treatment Inside the U.S. Meat Industry Hosted on Acast.

Spiritual Landmines Series // More: The Lie Of Greed (pt.2) | Jared Douglas
Pastor Jim explores the fluctuating nature of faith through the biblical narrative of Abram and Lot in Genesis 13. He emphasizes that true repentance requires a specific confession of sin and a return to God rather than offering vague apologies. By comparing the two men, he illustrates how wealth serves as a spiritual test, leading Lot toward greed and isolation while prompting Abram toward humble generosity. Ultimately, he encourages listeners to lift their eyes toward eternal promises rather than earthly treasures. He concludes that human longing for a "paradise" like Eden can only be satisfied through faith in Jesus Christ Support the showThanks for listening!

Then the "studious foos" also investigate the "creepy" news that Waymo self-driving cars are being remotely piloted by workers in the Philippines and debate why 35% of college kids are addicted to scrolling TikTok during intimacy.

This was one of the most violent crypto flushes in years. Bitcoin plunged to $60,000, a 17% intraday collapse that ranks among the 10 worst drops in BTC history. More than $2.4 billion in leveraged positions were liquidated in 24 hours, pushing Fear & Greed readings to levels last seen during the FTX collapse. BlackRock's IBIT ETF recorded its highest trading volume ever, while Strategy shares sank after posting a $12 billion Q4 loss. Traditional markets also struggled, but the damage was far more contained. The S&P 500 fell 1.2%, the Nasdaq slipped 1.6%, and software stocks remain under heavy pressure amid AI disruption fears. U.S. layoff announcements surged to their highest January level since 2009. Overseas, Asia closed mostly lower, Europe fared better, and one rare positive headline emerged as U.S.–Iran negotiations began in Oman, easing geopolitical stress.

James Talarico, running for a Texas U.S. Senate seat, joins Joanna Coles to argue that America has hit a dangerous inflection point—one defined by government overreach, corruption, and the collapse of public trust. From ICE shootings in Minneapolis to Donald Trump's broken promises, Talarico says extremism and billionaire greed have left even Republican voters feeling conned, while Democrats remain stranded in the political wilderness. A man of faith as well as a lawmaker, he takes on Christian nationalism, explains what Jesus might say to Trump, and makes the case that nonviolent protest—and a new generation of leadership—is the only way out of the crisis now gripping American democracy.
