I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode.In a world of hot takes and subjective partisan media it is very easy to become goaded or feel defeated by the inflammatory stories, reels and    “reporting” that floods our screens day after day. How can we responsibly be informed about what is happening in our nation and around the world without become inflamed, apathetic, or isolationist? It starts by being the gatekeeper of your own mind and home like the Bereans who tested everything, even Paul's teachings, against the truth of God's Word. Then by cultivating characteristics of an informed homemaker and seeking out trusted sources.These are the steps covered by The Art of Home's resources released in the fall of 2024 just before the last presidential election.

Welcome to episode 235 of Grasp the Bible. In this episode, we will examine the topic of digital discipleship.  Key takeaways:   Technology isn't just a tool we use; it's a tool that uses us—or more precisely, it shapes our habits, expectations, attention, and relationships. If we don't anchor identity in Christ, we will anchor it in public approval, and that becomes a new form of slavery. Sometimes what looks like a “spiritual problem” is also a formed habit problem—people are exhausted and overstimulated. The challenge isn't to reject technology completely, but to use it in ways that honor God and build His kingdom.  Quotable:   We become what we repeatedly do.  Application:   The phrase "think on these things" means to calculate, consider carefully, or meditate on. It's an accounting term—we should carefully evaluate what we allow into our minds through screens. The battle for your life is won or lost in your thought life. Guard your mind with the same vigilance you'd guard your home. There is no "off the clock" for the Christian. Your social media isn't a "free zone" where different rules apply. The same Lord who sees you in worship sees you on Facebook at 11 PM. You wouldn't let a thief into your house to steal your possessions. Why do you voluntarily hand him your phone and let him steal your hours? Evaluate your screen time with one question:  Is this helping me love God and love my neighbor—or training me to love myself and the world?  Connect with us:   Web site:  https://springbaptist.org   Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/SBCKleinCampus (Klein Campus)   https://www.facebook.com/SpringBaptist (Spring Campus)   Need us to pray for you?

Ghislaine Maxwell complained of guard misconduct by portraying herself as a victim of mistreatment inside federal custody, repeatedly alleging that guards were improperly watching her, disrupting her sleep, and violating her privacy. She claimed that routine checks amounted to harassment, arguing that guards were deliberately making noise, shining lights, and observing her in ways she said were unnecessary and punitive. Her legal team framed these complaints as evidence of a hostile detention environment, suggesting that the Bureau of Prisons was failing to respect her dignity and rights. The thrust of her argument was that standard suicide-watch style monitoring, implemented in the shadow of Jeffrey Epstein's death, crossed the line into abuse. What Maxwell cast as misconduct, however, closely mirrored the very safeguards the BOP put in place precisely because of her proximity to one of the most notorious custodial failures in modern history.The complaints landed poorly in the court of public opinion, given the gravity of the crimes she was accused of facilitating. Critics noted the stark contrast between Maxwell's grievances about personal discomfort and the years of exploitation suffered by Epstein's victims, whose privacy and bodily autonomy were systematically stripped away. Her allegations against guards read less like a serious civil rights claim and more like an attempt to reframe herself as persecuted rather than protected from self-harm. Judges and prosecutors largely treated her complaints as secondary to the overwhelming security concerns surrounding her detention. In the end, Maxwell's focus on guard behavior underscored a recurring pattern in her defense strategy: deflecting attention from her role in Epstein's operation by recasting herself as the one being wronged by the system.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

If you've ever ended a "work day" and thought, "I was busy… but did I actually move the needle?" — this episode is for you. In this Life Insurance Academy Podcast, Zach and Chris break down what a winning day snapshot looks like for a high-producing final expense / telesales agent (especially working from home). No fluff. No hype. Just the daily standards that create consistent apps, consistent income, and consistent momentum. You'll learn the 5 non-negotiables top producers follow: Talk to seniors every day (conversations create skill + cashflow) Be a difference maker (principled sales process + control + trust) Follow up until they buy or die (respectfully… and relentlessly) Train on what moves the needle (objections, underwriting, products, tone/pacing) Guard your mind (home distractions, emotions, inconsistency, self-doubt) They also share real benchmarks (dials, conversations, presentations), plus a sample daily schedule to help you build structure that beats motivation every time.

Send us a textWhat if “wealth transfer” isn't a windfall, but a wake-up call to build, steward, and govern? We sit down with Apostle Obi Pax Harry to unpack a bold thesis: Deuteronomy 8:18 isn't poetry—it's policy. God gives the power to get wealth, which means the next decade favors those who pair prayer with plans, revelation with research, and vision with value chains. We track her journey through revivals in Nigeria and the UK and use it as a launchpad to rethink titles as functions, not status, and money as mandate, not magic.From there, we chart four clear doors into the global economy: knowing your nation's redemptive gifts, laboring to understand God's will across earth systems, yielding to receive keys for hidden riches, and seeing with kingly perspective. That lens turns headlines into homework: BRICS currency moves, alternative payment rails, and even asteroid probes rumored to hold vast metals. If revelation is progressive, our stewardship must be too—into space, soil, and everything between. We explore how to turn resources into retained profits by building local processing, specialized schools, and intelligent supply chains that keep value at home.The heart of this conversation is mindset. We confront doctrines that shrink capacity, especially the fixation on generational curses. Patterns exist, but patterns break when decisions change. Riches can vanish; wealth endures because it is decision-driven and designed to serve three generations. 2025 stretched many of us—2026 is the thrust. Expect partnerships, not solo heroics. Guard your thought life, because ideas are where prophecies land. And start where you stand: invest small and early, steward the land beneath your feet, and cultivate governance habits that match your calling.If this reframed your idea of wealth, share it with a friend, subscribe for more conversations like this, and leave a review telling us the one investment—of time, learning, or capital—you'll make this week.Support the showYou can support this show via the link below;https://www.buzzsprout.com/1718587/supporters/new

Spencer Reese welcomes Ross Alcorn from Itinerary Boss https://itineraryboss.com/ to discuss credit card points and miles strategies, with special focus on small business owners. Ross shares how he saved $19,000 on his honeymoon, reveals tactical business spending strategies, and explains how military service members can leverage TDY travel and small business expenses to fund dream vacations. Guest: Ross Alcorn - Charlotte, NC-based travel strategist, former sales rep road warrior (6-7 years), real estate investor, and founder of Itinerary Boss. Key Topics Covered Getting Started - The Low-Hanging Fruit: Sign up for FREE hotel loyalty programs (Hilton, Marriott, IHG, Hyatt) Add loyalty numbers to TDY/TAD stays retroactively if needed Military discount: Epic Pass for active duty/spouses ~$200 (normally $1,200) Start with no annual fee cards to build credit and learn the basics Never carry a balance - if you're paying interest, you're doing it wrong Business Spending Strategies: Most common mistake: Using Amex Platinum for everything (only 1x points on most purchases) Capital One Venture X Business: Uncapped 2x points, no preset credit limit Cards earning 3-4x on ad spend (Facebook, Google ads) Use Melio (M-E-L-I-O) to pay vendors who don't accept cards via ACH (2.9% fee) Negotiate early payment discounts (net 15 vs net 30) to offset processing fees Millions in business expenses going uncharged to credit cards The 2.9% Fee Debate: Worth it if redeeming points at 1.5+ cents per point value Effective 25-40% cash back when factoring welcome bonuses + transfer value Business expenses are tax deductible Ross personally pays fees on all expenses knowing he'll redeem at 2-6 cents/point Real-World Example - $19,000 Honeymoon Savings: Cards used: Chase Sapphire Reserve, Capital One Venture, Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Ink Business Unlimited Flights: Qatar Q-Suites business class using 200K points (Chase + Capital One) Stayed 11 nights using Hyatt points at Alila properties in Bali Built point stash over 1-1.5 years through group travel booking + daily spend + business welcome bonuses Strategy: Booked award availability 355 days out when British Airways/Qatar released schedules Flexibility: Mixed business and premium economy on return flight Transfer Partners & Redemption: NEVER redeem for Amazon gift cards, statement credits, or low-value portal bookings (0.6-0.7 cents/point) Transfer to airline partners for 2-6+ cents per point value Don't use Amex points for hotels (poor value) Example: 175K Amex points = potential $12,700 business class seats to South Africa Tools: Points.Yeah.com for flight availability and award searching Military-Specific Advantages: Overseas duty stations = less competition for award space (Frankfurt, Tokyo, Seoul) Different inventory than US-based flyers TDY/TAD stays earn hotel points and elite status Annual fee waivers on personal cards (not business cards) via MLA/SCRA Chase Sapphire Reserve: $0 annual fee for military/spouses Strategic Tips: Always volunteer to pay group bills/dinners (earn points, get reimbursed) Premium economy fine for daytime flights under 8-9 hours Business class essential for overnight/long-haul flights (9+ hours) Plan 1-2 years ahead for big trips - comfortable pace to build points Opening velocity: Ross did one card every 91 days at peak (very aggressive) Combine household points (Chase, Amex, Capital One allow this) Book tickets in anyone's name, not just your own Credit Card Stacking Strategy: Don't use one premium card for everything Match card to spending category for maximum points Chase "cash back" cards earn Ultimate Rewards points if you have Sapphire Reserve/Preferred Transfer between household members before booking Welcome bonuses are the real value - daily spend is bonus Business Culture Hack: Instead of $5-10K cash bonus, give employees 500K miles + book their dream trip Tax deductible, builds culture, retains talent More memorable than cash bonus IHG Five Free Nights Strategy: Five free nights at properties up to 60K points/night Ross staying 4 nights in Grand Cayman at $800/night hotel = $3,200 saved Fourth night free on award bookings Anniversary free night each year Used for wedding block, earning 26x points on wedding expenses Common Mistakes to Avoid: Not asking vendors if they accept credit cards Using wrong card for spending category (leaving 2-3x points on table) Redeeming points poorly (gift cards, statement credits) Not tracking card benefits and credits Waiting too long to book award travel Not being flexible with dates/airports Tools & Resources Mentioned: Points.Yeah.com - Award availability search, flight ideas map Melio - Pay vendors via card when they only accept ACH Plastiq - Pay rent/large bills with credit card (2.9% fee) Free Points & Miles Cheat Sheet at ItineraryBoss.com Transfer partner guide and credit card multiplier sheets Key Quotes "There's millions of dollars that aren't being put on cards because of just not asking the right questions." "If you're earning 2x points and utilizing those points to transfer, even with a 3% fee, the numbers pencil when you're redeeming at 2-6 cents per point." "175,000 Amex points could be used to get you business class, first class seats - we used 176K Chase points for $12,700 worth of business class seats to South Africa." "Don't redeem for Amazon gift cards, statement credits, or through the portal - you're getting 0.6-0.7 cents per point. That's terrible." "Why give a $10K cash bonus when you could give someone 500K miles and book them a trip to Greece or Bali they'd never do on their own?" Who This Episode Is For Military small business owners and real estate investors Service members with TDY/TAD travel Anyone spending on business ads, inventory, or vendor payments Military spouses running 1099 contractor businesses People planning big trips (honeymoons, bucket list travel) Those currently leaving business value on the table Anyone wanting to turn business expenses into free travel Action Items Sign up for all major hotel loyalty programs today (free) Add loyalty numbers to upcoming TDY stays Check if vendors accept credit cards (or use Melio) Review current card stack - are you earning maximum points per category?

God isn't interested in helping you become a more organized version of your fragmented self—He's inviting you into wholeness. Through forgiveness, He's done more than erase your past; He's reconciled you to the relationship you were always meant to have with Him. This isn't about perfecting all the scattered pieces of your life; it's about allowing those pieces to be made whole by His love. And here's the beautiful part: you don't need faith for every moment from now on—just trust sufficient for right now, enough to take one step. Guard your heart, renew your mind, offer your body, and discover that wholeness isn't a destination you strive toward but a reality you live from, empowered by the God who began a good work in you and promises to complete it.

Getting a bit of 2016 Déjà vu where our season fell apart after losing to Toronto in London. There is no parachute for this current 23-21 Magic team. Jamahl Mosley is on the ropes. Jeff Weltman may be gone in a few months. We have no first round draft pick this summer. Whatever players are on the Magic after the February 5th trade deadline are going to have to drag us out of this mess. I'm focusing this episode on the center and guard market, but I have not trust in the front office to take action. It's going to take multiple drastic changes to turn the season around: Roster moves, actual coaching, and the players being willing to come together and give a damn. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

Guard The Gospel - 2 Timothy 1:13-14 -- Thomas Easterling - An imprisoned Paul writes a tender, encouraging letter to his "beloved child" Timothy, urging him to rekindle his spiritual gifts and remain bold in faith despite suffering. Paul calls for courage in proclaiming the Gospel, resisting fear, and guarding the "good deposit" of truth, while honoring Onesiphorus for his loyalty.

Though the office of the Shining Star stands on the second of Spillaway Peaks' three tiers, on a clear night, its rooftop beacon can be seen from miles away. This, Thelonious, the newspaper's editor-in-chief says, is a recruitment strategy. Those who see the light and travel through the wilderness towards it tend to be inquisitive and adventurous enough to make good freelance reporters. And though they followed the Shining Star's reputation before its shining light, couldn't the same be said of the crew of the Little Snail? This week on Perpetua: A Picture of the Hills 03 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.058] Side Quests[SDQS] Spillaway Peaks [SPSQ] Escort the Waylon the Photographer - 300 Asta Description: It's time for Old Waylon to take the yearly photo of the town. Guard him on his journey up the mountains to the best angle. Definitely take this quest before leaving town. You're gonna be going up that way to do other side quests anyway, and while Waylon isn't worth a damn in a fight, he also doesn't actually cause you too much trouble as long as you keep up with him! Terrapin Interest Story - 25 to 425 Asta Description: The Shining Star is paying for feature stories about the people of Spillaway Peaks. Brainstorm an idea, interview your subjects, write your article, and supplement it with art! This one is a pain in the butt and it seems really random how much you make from it. Basically, you pick from easy to difficult in each phase of the quest (topic, interview, etc.) and depending on how you do, you get more money. Each of the topics also requires you to go to different places, so like if you do a story on the school play, you have to go to the Clutch area to interview parents and children, where as if you do a story on the port's guards, you need to go down to the water to talk to them. I guess if you really need the Asta, go for it. Investigate the Livestock Deaths - 400 Asta  Description: Beula's Giant Oxen have been getting sick, and some have even been dying! This is a problem, since it's almost time to dredge up new Rice Paddies. Though this looks like a side quest, it's basically mandatory. Unless you were inducted into the Luminaries by Commodore Onyx before leaving Calstega Bay, when you meet with Thelonious, he'll basically put you on a path to do this quest. As such, go read the main Calstega Bay quest section of the FAQ to learn more about this one.  Kill 17 Frostoads - 100 Asta Description: N/A I honestly don't understand why this one is even on this side quest board. Isn't it supposed to be a newspaper? Why would they pay you to kill random toads? There's not even a description on it! Paper Delivery - 20 Asta Description: Deliver the Shining Star to all 15 of its readers. Okay, so, you have to go from the Shining Star to 15 different NPCs spread all across the town. And with a 20 Asta reward, it sounds like a really boring fetch quest that just wastes your time right? Well. I guess I won't say it isn't a time waster. But the important thing is that you can do this once per every Rest action. And because you can stay for free in Jonathan's family's house… that's right. It seems like you can just grind money here indefinitely. I say "seems" because I haven't tested it yet, and there is a chance that just resting repeatedly and not advancing the main plot could have consequences, like it did in Shine-Divine War Armidirge. So be careful, but let me know what happens if you do try to get infinite money here!
