Daniel Sloss rolls into Steph Infection still recovering from American bar pours, turns out 5 gin and tonics in the US is not the same as 5 gin and tonics in Scotland, and he has learned this the hard way. Steph and Daniel bond hard over Highland dancing (for real), Scottish country dancing as a pickup culture, having a best bitch at your wedding, and why the Edinburgh Fringe would absolutely lose its mind if Steph showed up. Then it gets real as Daniel walks through both of his kids' births in full detail, including his wife losing 1.5 liters of blood, a stuck placenta, an hour and a half alone with a newborn not knowing if his wife was alive, and his wife shockingly coming back into the room like "let's have two more." He has not forgiven her.

This week in our All Sufficient series, Pastor John Durham preached from Romans 2, reminding us that both the rebellious and the religious are equally in need of God's grace. He challenged us to stop comparing ourselves to others and defending our own sin, recognizing that salvation is not found in religious knowledge or performance, but in the righteousness of Christ alone.
Episode Notes ** Did you know you can support my podcast for as little as $1 a month? You can do that by heading over to my Patreon HERE!! My guest this week is George Jackson. George Jackson is a Nashville-based fiddle player and the 2022 IBMA Instrumentalist Of The Year Momentum Award Winner, who performs as a band leader and fiddler for hire with artists such as The Jacob Jolliff Band, Jake Blount, Tall Poppy String Band, The Local Trio, Front Country, Peter Rowan, Missy Raines, Charm City Junction and others. Born in New Zealand, George grew up in a musical family and first heard bluegrass music around the age of 14, immediately falling in love with the style he started trying to work out how to play it from recordings and from mentors in New Zealand. Moving to Australia as a 16-year-old, he won the Australian National Bluegrass Championship on fiddle three times and toured the country with his bluegrass band, "The Company", playing all the major folk festivals on the Australian circuit. As a resident of Nashville and the USA from 2016, George has released three albums of fiddle tunes, "Time and Place" in 2019 and "Hair & Hide" in 2021 and most recently “George Jackson's Local Trio” with Eli Broxham and Frank Evans in 2023. He was awarded first place in the Mike Auldridge tune composition award by the DC bluegrass union in both 2019 and 2021 for his tunes "Chapel Hill Deer Stalk" and "Neighbor Mike" respectively. He also sparked a viral fiddle tune frenzy with his composition "Dorrigo", when hundreds of musicians learned the tune and posted videos of themselves playing it online, becoming known as the "#dorrigochallenge". In his free time, George loves to watch Star Trek and cook food at home, with recent obsessions in Italian and Cajun fare. He loves Swedish fiddle music and —fun fact— he was a competitive Highland dancer until the age of 21.

The fall of the Lordship of the Isles didn't just fracture a clan — it set off a centuries-long story of survival, rivalry, and extinction. In Part 2, we continue our deep dive into the independent branches that emerged from the ruins of Clan Donald, focusing on four clans that carved out their own identities and legacies — and honoring the branches that didn't survive into the modern era.If you haven't listened to Part 1 yet, start there — we lay the groundwork with the history of the Lordship, its forfeiture in 1493, and an introduction to the major branches of Clan Donald.The Branches Covered in This Episode:

Crisis aid keeps the lights on this month. The THRIVE Project is built to make sure there isn't a next crisis. On this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael sits down at the United Way office with longtime friend Andrea Cosans, Executive Director of Winchester CCAP, to talk about the most ambitious project of her CCAP tenure — a multi-agency, grant-funded initiative that will take up to 50 ALICE-population clients through a year of intensive support (case management, therapy, life coaching, financial literacy, job training) and follow them for a second year to see if it sticks. Andrea walks through the small-scale pilots that got her here — five clients, then ten, with results so strong they convinced funders to back a $112,000 expansion — and the partner agencies who said yes to building it together: Connected Communities, I'm Just ME, United Way Northern Shenandoah Valley, Horizon Goodwill, and Family Promise. Plus a much bigger argument about how nonprofits in this community actually do collaborate, and why "too many nonprofits, too much overlap" is the wrong story to tell about the people doing this work. Plus details on two upcoming CCAP fundraisers: An Evening of Enchantment (June 18th) and the 6th Annual Benefit Bike Ride (August 22nd). IN THIS EPISODE (00:00) Why this conversation is happening at the United Way office (it'll make sense in a minute) (00:30) CCAP's history — founded 1974 to help the population we now call ALICE (01:00) Why preventing homelessness is cheaper than fixing it (01:30) What CCAP's financial aid actually covers — rent, mortgage, utilities, heating, car repair (02:00) Why CCAP is, by design, a Band-Aid — and why a Band-Aid isn't enough (02:30) The origin story: a Legacy Wellness therapist, a life coach, a conference, and $1,000 (03:00) The first five clients — and what "wildly successful" really meant (03:30) The story of the man who came to CCAP every day, and now hasn't been seen in two years (03:30) The woman who won the Park Ranger Wheelbarrow Olympics at Great Meadows (04:30) Round two: 10 clients, 10 successes, and a $112,000 grant package (04:30) Why this can't be a one-agency program — and who said yes (05:30) Why the program follows clients for a second year (the real test) (06:30) The Valley Health Foundation and Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints grants (07:00) What clients actually do — Get on Board job boot camp, financial literacy, mentoring (07:30) The forklift-certified couple, the substance-abuse and DV story, and the volunteers they became (08:30) The drug-court client who came back to teach CPR classes (09:00) Who the program is for — ALICE: asset-limited, income-constrained, employed (09:30) The Winchester paradox — beautiful downtown, 19% food insecurity, 50% on some benefit (10:30) Trauma-informed decisions and the myth that fast food is cheaper (11:30) The week-by-week structure — case manager, therapist, life coach, classes, all of it (12:30) "Room to dream" — the single father who didn't know how to go back to college (13:30) Why nobody taught most of us how to do a family budget (Janet included) (15:30) The first meeting — Andrea, the partners, and a ground rule for letting go (16:30) Logistics: release-of-information forms, intake, referrals, who does what (17:00) Kim Wilt's policy magic — and the dream of replicating THRIVE in other communities (18:00) "They're not my clients — they're citizens who need help" (19:30) The City of Winchester visit and what workforce partnerships could look like (20:30) The 6th Annual Benefit Bike Ride — August 22 at the Wellness Center (21:00) Why people fly in from Germany, England, Florida, and Ohio for it (21:30) An Evening of Enchantment — Thursday, June 18 with New Eve Maternity Home (22:00) Silent auction, live auction, Gore Cabin staycation, Vic the magician (22:30) The hot water heater story (and why it outsold the jewelry) (23:00) Why "too many nonprofits, no collaboration" is the wrong story (24:30) How CCAP's $200/household actually works in partnership with others (25:30) The food-pantry schedule across town — Mondays at CCAP, Tuesdays at Highland, Saturdays at the Merriman's Lane church (25:30) The $50,000 United Way grant that pushed 50,000 pounds of produce across the region (26:30) The Nonprofit Collaborative and the case for citizens, not clients (27:30) What happens when Church World Services loses funding — and why CCAP feels it indirectly ABOUT THE THRIVE PROJECT A new multi-agency program led by Winchester CCAP and backed by $112,000 in initial grant funding. Designed to take up to 50 ALICE-population clients through a structured year of services — case management, therapy, life coaching, financial literacy classes, Horizon Goodwill's "Get on Board" job boot camp — followed by a second year of check-ins to measure durable change.

Episode 674 of The Knife Junkie Podcast is a deep look at daggers—one of the most discussed and most misunderstood blade categories in the knife community. Bob DeMarco brings out twelve daggers for a collection update that covers everything from a World War II-era KA-BAR/EK Commando Knife to a Microtech SBD trade pickup he had been hunting for years. The lineup includes the Randall Knives Model 2-7 Combat Stiletto, Cold Steel Peace Keeper II, Spartan Harsey Dagger, Spartan George Raider Dagger, and the Cold Steel Tai Pan in San Mai, among others. Bob talks grip technique, blade geometry, what Cold Steel gets right about the slash, and why some daggers are better suited to thrusting while others handle both jobs well.Before the dagger segment, Bob runs a pocket check from a real working day—assembling a shed in the backyard—featuring the Spyderco Manix 2 Lightweight in S110V, the Fisher Blades Harvey PK, the Edgy American Blades Junkie in CruWear, and a Cold Steel Laredo Bowie that was standing by just in case. The episode also features the First Tool segment on the Scottish Highland basket-hilt broadsword, covering its role in the Jacobite risings and its significance to Highland culture since the Battle of Culloden in 1746.The State of the Collection segment features a custom seax from Matt Chase of Hogtooth Knives—pattern-welded from 1085, 15N20, and nickel, with elk antler and Micarta scales and a hand-engraved leather sheath—that Bob called his unofficial Blade Show purchase for 2026. Bob also shows off a six-knife Cordura carrying case and hand-thrown stoneware mug from Terzuola Design, sent by merch czar Ben Odi. Knife Life News covers Spyderco Reveal 21 highlights, including a Mickey Yurco Gunting collaboration, the CRKT Squid II with M390 and wood handles, the Boker Overnighter by FP Knives, and the upcoming Civivi Almaris slipjoint.Whether you are a longtime dagger collector or just starting to pay attention to double-edged blades, Episode 674 gives you a thorough and entertaining look at why this category deserves a place in any serious collection. Bob wraps up with plans to keep growing the dagger side of his collection, so this is not the last time the topic comes up.Find the list of all the knives shown in the show and links to the Knife Life news stories at https://theknifejunkie.com/674.

This week, Jeremy Daniel preached from Jude 1:17-25, encouraging believers to remain faithful by grounding themselves in God's truth, praying with dependence on Him, and resting in His love and mercy. Jeremy reminded us that perseverance is not ultimately sustained by our strength, but by the God who is able to keep His people and present them blameless before Him.
Why do we often think of ourselves as good people, yet struggle to actually do good when the opportunity is right in front of us? In this message from Galatians 6:9, Eric Gentry explores the difference between talking about goodness and living it out through faithful obedience, love, and service. Along the way, he challenges listeners to consider what true goodness looks like in both our relationship with God and our treatment of others. This episode begins with Highland member Suzanne Avery sharing why Galatians 6:9 has been such a meaningful verse in her life and why she chose it as one of our Memory Verses for 2026. Be encouraged to keep doing good, trusting that God is at work even when the harvest seems slow in coming.

In this episode, I sit down with Simon Dyakowski, President and CEO of GSP Resource Corp (TSXV: GSPR), for an in-depth company introduction focused on the Alwin-Mer Project located in the heart of British Columbia's prolific Highland Valley. Simon shares insights into the company's tight share structure, recent financing, and the upcoming summer drill program. Key discussion points include: The Alwin Mine Project History: Discover the background of this past-producing high-grade copper mine and how it fits into the shadow of giants like Teck Resources' Highland Valley mine. The Mur Project's Porphyry Potential: An overview of the historical work that points toward an expansive, shallow copper system ripe for modern, deeper drilling. The Summer Phase 1 Drill Strategy: Insight into the specific targets the company will drill, including the western gold zone at Alwin. Untapped Precious Metal Credits: Why historic data overlooked potentially significant gold and silver values, and how GSP plans to capture this hidden value. Distressed Valuation & Market Tailwinds: A breakdown of GSP's tight share structure and the regional momentum driving a major camp renewal.

Welcome to The Turf Zone podcast. This episode features the article “Creative Membership Models for Private Clubs” written by Larry Hirsh for golfprop.com and read from Virginia Turfgrass Journal. Among the intriguing elements of the private club world are the various membership models that exist. Of course, there are equity, where the members own the club and non-equity, where an investor owns the club; but within each category there are numerous variations. Clubs exhibit a wide variety of operating models, typically designed to suit their market, economics and their club culture. Of late, a lot of the “news” in the private club world has come from the newly developed, uber upscale clubs often with entrance fees well into six figures, or even seven. Some have a partial refundability element, and as one might expect are very exclusive. However, of those I've encountered of late, I'd like to focus on a few I find intriguing as ways to help grow the game, encourage club membership and broaden golf's appeal. Most contradict the concept of exclusivity that many clubs seek, but such exclusivity isn't always for the best, either economically or socially. Of interest in resort and vacation areas is the model I've encountered whereby placing your vacation home in the rental pool entitles the owner to a substantial discount on dues and guests and extended family members discounts on golf and other fees. Obviously, this creates financial incentive for property owners to participate by reducing club dues but of course exposes the property owner to (usually short term) tenants and the risks inherent in same. With resort guests/renters also having access to club facilities, exclusivity is limited, however clubs with a variant of this model typically establish privileges, preferences, access or activities exclusive to members to establish and cultivate a culture of membership. Among the more unique membership models I've (recently) heard about is one residential golf community club where resident members join the club but pay their initiation fee upon the sale of their home. Another model which I've always found of interest is that often found in Scotland and other areas of the United Kingdom and Europe where even top clubs are much more inclusive than many in the US and rely on visitor fees for much of their revenue. The benefits of this model are that membership dues are maintained at more nominal levels, and the culture of the club is quite different than many elite clubs in the US. As Royal Dornoch General Manager Neil Hampton wrote in the club's recent newsletter, “What I have always enjoyed about Royal Dornoch is that it is an inclusive club. There are so many different facets to the club, yet everyone comes together as one and has fun with each other. We have visitors playing seven days a week and invite them to share our courses and clubhouse just as we do. I think it is wonderful and epitomizes the Highland way, that we do not have separate areas for members or visitors and everyone mixes together, sharing their experiences.” Privileged to be a member at Royal Dornoch, I agree with his comments. I'm sure there are many more I'm not yet familiar with. One thing I've always maintained is that every club needs to know what it wants to be. To some, golf (especially club membership) is a status symbol, to others it's an “everyman's” game. At some clubs, one's net worth is estimated halfway down the first fairway. Each club establishes, develops and maintains its own culture and that is often dictated by the extent of the club rule book which in turn can often determine the membership models for the club. At some clubs the financial commitment alone excludes many. At others it's social status or heritage. At more inclusive clubs the membership is typically much more diverse. One of the most creative membership models more prominent in past years was the refundable deposit where the member was entitled to the return of his entrance fee after a specified period of time or upon resignation based on certain conditions. While still available at some clubs, this option is quite sensitive (for the club) to economic fluctuations and fell out of favor in the pre-COVID period from 2000–2020 when the golf/club industry was experiencing challenging times. Whether this experiences a resurgence will be interesting to see. I've always fallen back on the definition of “club”. Webster's dictionary most relevant and simple definition of a club is: to unite or combine for a common cause. At the clubs we're talking about, that basically means social and athletic activities. Sometimes it's much more complex than that. You have been listening to The Turf Zone Podcast.

AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR A SCOTTISH CHRISTMAS SECRET November 1, 2025 | Streaming CAST & CREW OF A SCOTTISH CHRISTMAS SECRET Patsy Kensit as Sophie Bennett Alex Trumble as Nathan McAllister Caprice Bourret as Tiffany Bennett Director: Graham Pritz-Bennett Writer: JJ Moon BRAN'S A SCOTTISH CHRISTMAS SECRET SYNOPSIS We meet book publisher Tiffany, who is having a tough go of it. Her bestselling author, Nathan McAllister, has disappeared to Scotland, where he has taken a job as a ski instructor and is considering quitting writing altogether, despite the fact that his fans are waiting for the final book in his super popular love-mystery series. Tiffany hatches a plan: send her sister Sophie to Scotland, hire Nathan to be her ski instructor, get close to him, and help him finish his book. She gets to Scotland and the cabin isn't quite what she's used to. Then she gets to the slopes and literally runs into Nathan. They start hanging out, and he shows her around town. He opens up about his past — how he was adopted and grew up in a castle — and about how he's thinking of not writing anymore. She starts to feel guilty about not telling him why she's really there. They have a romantic evening together looking at Christmas lights, but call it a night before they end up kissing. She's about to tell him the truth, but then he tells her that he's started writing again. Later, she's talking to her sister on the phone and says, “I have to tell him who I really am.” Nathan overhears this and demands she come clean. It does not go well. He says, “There's nothing you can say that will justify what you've done, and I never want to see you again. Consider the book DEAD!” Honestly, worst possible outcome. She goes to leave, but has to come back to get her nephew's phone. She makes it in time for a party, and Nathan asks her to stay. She apologizes, and they dance and kissssss. One year later, they're spending Christmas together as a married couple, his book is a bestseller, a movie is in production, and he's starting his own publishing imprint.

In this episode of the ZenRUN Podcast, I chat with the wonderful Peta Moore - wildlife lover, ultra runner, Perth Zoo vet nurse, trail adventurer, and fellow member of the 2026 Delirious West DNF crew. Peta's story starts in a small coal mining town in Central Queensland, where she definitely did not grow up thinking she was sporty. There was a bit of T-ball, some Highland dancing, a serious Muay Thai phase, and eventually a life built around animals, wildlife, conservation, and the odd capybara obsession. From wildlife biology to Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital, bear rescue work in Vietnam, zookeeping in Alice Springs, and eventually Perth Zoo, Peta's life has been full of animals, adventure, and a very healthy amount of chaos. And then running arrived. What started as a Couch to 5K attempt on the trails around Alice Springs - complete with hills, heat, sunsets, and a dog by her side - slowly turned into trail running, ultra running, 100 milers, 200 milers, injury comebacks, big adventures, and a very deep love for the WA trail running community. We talk about Peta's first ultras, her love-hate relationship with backyard events, finishing her first 200 miler in the Blue Mountains, crying at aid stations, eating emergency Twisties for breakfast, getting through terrifying cliff sections with the help of “Spider Lady”, and the weird way ultra runners can suddenly find themselves saying things like, “There's only 80k to go!” Of course, we also talk about Delirious West 2026, where Peta went in with one of her best training blocks, a year of injury-free running behind her, and plenty of confidence - only to fall off a boardwalk just 3km into the race. From there, she managed pain, problem-solved, kept moving, questioned her sanity more than once, and eventually made the hard decision to stop at Treetop when the joy had gone and the risk felt too high. This conversation is honest, funny, emotional, and full of the real stuff that happens between start lines and finish lines - including the grief of a DNF, the fear of more injury, the pull of community, and the deep love that keeps bringing us back to the trails. Why You'll Love This Episode You'll hear about: Peta growing up in a tiny Central Queensland mining town Her path into wildlife biology, zoo medicine, and vet nursing Running in Alice Springs, Vietnam, Perth, Spain, the Blue Mountains and WA trails Her first trail events and how she got sucked into the ultra world Why the WA trail running community became her second family Her first 200 miler at Unreasonable in the Blue Mountains Sleep deprivation, aid station meltdowns, and emergency Twisties The injury rollercoaster: shoulder surgery, knee surgery, stress fractures and comebacks Her 2026 Delirious West 200 miler DNF Why stopping can sometimes be the strongest decision The strange grief that can come after a DNF Why running is still worth it, even when it breaks your heart a little Tips from Peta's Story 1. Community matters more than we realise. Peta talks beautifully about finding her people through trail running. When injury kept her from racing, she stayed connected by volunteering, crewing, cheering and showing up. 2. A DNF still contains a huge amount of courage. Peta's Delirious West didn't end the way she hoped, but she still pushed through a massive amount of pain, made smart decisions, and protected her future running. 3. Don't ignore pain just because you're tough. Ultra runners are excellent at tolerating discomfort - sometimes too excellent. Peta's story is a good reminder that pain is information, especially when there's a history of injury. 4. Cross-training can be a gift. During injury recovery, Peta discovered cycling and realised it made her stronger. Sometimes the thing we're forced into becomes part of the bigger picture. 5. Running will wait for you. One of the loveliest reminders from this episode is that if you need a break, running is still there. The trails are still there. The community is still there. 6. It's okay to grieve the race you didn't get to finish. A DNF can feel like losing the version of the story you'd been imagining. Peta speaks honestly about needing to process that. 7. Keep coming back - but come back wisely. Peta's story isn't about pretending everything is fine. It's about healing, rebuilding, adjusting, and still believing there are more adventures ahead.

This week, Pastor John Durham continued our Hey Jude sermon series with a message from Jude 5-15. John reminded us that God's truth must continually be remembered and passed on because people are prone to forget. Through examples of rebellion and judgment throughout Scripture, Jude warns of the danger of false teaching and unrepentant sin, while Pastor John reminded us that our only hope is found in the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross.

When the Lordship of the Isles fell in 1493, it didn't just end a political dynasty — it shattered one of the most powerful Scottish clans in history. In this episode, we explore how the mighty Clan Donald ceased to exist as a single unified clan and instead splintered into multiple independent branches, each with its own chief, territory, and identity.Whether you're tracing Scottish ancestry, fascinated by Highland history, or just discovering the world of Scottish clans, this is the story that explains why the MacDonalds cease to exist as one clan and, until recently, there was no single MacDonald clan.What You'll Learn in This Episode:The rise and golden age of the Lordship of the Isles — the near-independent Gaelic kingdom that dominated the west coast of Scotland for over a centuryThe key events and political pressures that led to the forfeiture of the Lordship by the Scottish Crown in 1493The desperate attempts to restore the Lordship — and why they all failedAn introduction to the major cadet branches of Clan Donald that emerged after the fall — each becoming, in effect, its own independent Scottish clanResources & Links:
On this week's episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Chris, and Sids are joined by one of England's toughest ever players… Terry Butcher.From THAT iconic blood-soaked shirt to facing Diego Maradona at the height of his powers, Terry takes us right inside the chaos, passion, and brutality of football in the 80s and 90s.The lads dive deep into Italia 90, the legendary England dressing room, Gazza stories, Bobby Robson's management style, and why Terry believes modern football has “gone soft”. There's also incredible insight into what it actually felt like playing against Maradona during the infamous Hand of God match in 1986 — including what happened when Terry confronted him afterwards.Away from football, Terry opens up emotionally about his son Christopher, his battle with PTSD after serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the powerful ITV documentary Invisible Wounds.

In this special message, we hear from three of Highland's Outreach Partners who are bringing hope and the love of Jesus to people locally and around the world. David Jordan shares about the work of Agape in Memphis, serving vulnerable and overlooked communities with compassion and care. Ron Wade talks about the ministry of HopeWorks and their new initiative, The Next Story, helping men leaving prison find housing, purpose, and hope in Christ. Nathan Luther gives an update from Bacolod, Philippines, where he and Karen continue decades of ministry through Shiloh Christian School, serving children and families in Jesus' name. Take time to listen and be encouraged by the many ways God is moving through these ministries.
This week for Senior Sunday, Student Minister Nathan Slonaker preached a one-off message from Matthew 5:1-3 about dependence. Nathan reminded us that the Christian life is not about growing into self-sufficiency, but about growing into a deeper dependence on God. He challenged us to resist pride and the illusion of independence, encouraging us instead to live with a posture of humility, prayer, and continual reliance on God's grace.
Are You Filled with the Holy Spirit? (Highland Chapel; Chattanooga, TN) MESSAGE SUMMARY: Are You Filled with the Holy Spirit? (Highland Chapel; Chattanooga, TN) As we follow Jesus in our daily lives, it is difficult to be “filled with the Holy Spirit” as we are instructed in Ephesians 5:18: “And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit,". When we believe in Jesus the Christ as our Lord and Savior; accept God's Grace of Salvation; and follow Jesus, then God provides us with His incredible gift of the Holy Spirit – God Himself who comes to us in His presence, in the third part of the Holy Trinity, as the Holy Spirit. Paul tells us, in Ephesians 1:13, that when we become a follower of Jesus, we are “sealed with the Holy Spirit”. Paul, in Ephesians, tells us that we only have two choices in our life relationship with the Holy Spirit: we either “grieve the Holy Spirit” or we are “filled with the Holy Spirit” – these two options, regarding the Holy Spirit, mean that, as we live our lives, we are either “strong in the Lord” or “we are not strong in the Lord”. In Ephesians 4:30, Paul speaks of “grieving the Holy Spirit”: “And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.”. “Grieving the Holy Spirit” means that we hurt or wound God's expectations for us as Followers of Jesus, as we live our lives, by not being “filled with the Holy Spirit”. Most of Ephesians 4 and Ephesians 5 describe the binary positions of lives that “grieve the Holy Spirit” or are “filled with the Holy Spirit”. When we “grieve the Holy Spirit”, we limit the power of the Holy Spirit and our access to God through our personal relationship with Him. Therefore, anytime we sin we “grieve the Holy Spirit”. God, through the Holy Spirit, will make us aware of when we grieve Him: and we then have the opportunity for Confession and Repentance of our sin; therefore, we can continue to “be filled with the Holy Spirit” as God wishes and expects. Are you grieving the Holy Spirit or are you filled with the Holy Spirit? TODAY'S PRAYER: Keeping the Sabbath, Lord, will require a lot of changes in the way I am living life. Teach me, Lord, how to take the next step with this in a way that fits my unique personality and situation. Help me to trust you with all that will remain unfinished and to enjoy my humble place in your very large world. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 129). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him! Luke 11:13 SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Ephesians 5:18; Ephesians 1:13; Ephesians 1:17; Ephesians 4:1; Ephesians 6:17-18; Ephesians 4:31; Ephesians 4:32; Ephesians 5:1-2; Ephesians 5:3-4; Ephesians 5:5; Ephesians 5:6; Ephesians 5:7-11; Ephesians 5:12-14; Ephesians 5:15-17; Ephesians 5:18; John 7:38-39; 1 John 1:8-9.

Scripture calls us to be devoted to prayer, yet it's easy for prayer to drift from the center of our ministries. This breakout will equip you to build a sustainable culture of prayer in your college ministry. You'll learn how to lead and structure a prayer ministry rooted in Scripture that helps students know God, hear from Him, and love Him more.This session was recorded live at Roundup 2026, a gathering of college ministry leaders hosted by the Southern Baptist of Texas Convention.Emmy Lively serves as the Associate Young Adults & College Minister at Highland Baptist Church in Waco, Texas.

A Highland warrior in 1544 leans off his horse, plucks a tiny white flower, and tucks it into his bonnet. His clan wins the battle. Centuries later, that same lucky bloom ends up on a bottle in our glasses.This week, Rob and Houston pour White Heather 15, the blended scotch resurrected by Billy Walker (the guy who turned Glenallachie into a legend).

In Highland County, Virginia, there are more trees than people. Specifically, the County is rich in sugar maples, the trees whose sap produces maple syrup. Better known as a “northern” sweetener, maple syrup is something that Highland County residents have been producing for decades—likely as early as the County was first settled in the mid-1700s. They learned the practice from local Indigenous tribes, who took part in tapping trees themselves. In “Sap's Rising in Highland County, Virginia,” Gravy reporter Sarah Jessee explores Highland County maple syrup production in the past and present, and discusses how the County's syrup-making might change in the future.

Point Fest is almost here, and the crew is fully locked into concert-season chaos. The gang talks meet-and-greets, side stages, local bands, and the Road to Point Fest competition — including an accidental on-air mix-up that somehow made things even more Rizz Show-y. Trevor May & The Nomads get some love, Sideshow gets their rightful victory lap, and everyone agrees Highland, Illinois may secretly be manufacturing musicians in a lab somewhere.Then things take a surprisingly philosophical turn when the show debates whether adults are actually cooler now than they were in high school. What starts as a simple question becomes a full therapy session involving acne glow-ups, fake confidence, bus-seat politics, floating between social groups, and why being a jerk in high school somehow counted as “cool.” Rafe drops accidental wisdom, Lern gets deep about authenticity, and King Scott proudly explains that he still doesn't get invited to parties… but now at least he hears about them. Growth. Beautiful growth.The conversation somehow escalates into midlife-crisis accusations after truck purchases, homeowner flexes, and dangling accessories become evidence in the court of Cool Dad Law. Which honestly makes this the exact kind of daily podcast people come here for: emotionally unstable grown adults trying to justify their hobbies while roasting each other into dust. That's friendship, baby.In Crap on Celebrities, the gang covers Tool reportedly being approached before U2 for the Las Vegas Sphere, celebrity “Game of Thrones politics,” and why Tool fans may need to start saving money immediately. There's also Amazon TV announcements, Fallout casting news, Reacher updates, and an absolutely brutal listen to Vince Neil performing on American Idol alongside Carrie Underwood. Nobody survives that audio clip emotionally. Nobody.The crew also dives into celebrity jail history including Martha Stewart, Robert Downey Jr., Tim Allen, Lindsay Lohan, Khloe Kardashian, Wesley Snipes, Mark Wahlberg, and Matthew McConaughey's legendary naked bongos incident. Which somehow becomes one of the most relatable celebrity stories discussed all morning. That sentence alone should tell you exactly what kind of daily podcast this is.And because this show refuses to stay on topic for more than six seconds, the episode closes with an unexpected Steve Winwood appreciation session complete with singalongs, nostalgia, and the now-unforgettable lyric: “Bake me a pie of love.” Sorry in advance for that getting stuck in your head forever.If you love music news, hilarious fails, celebrity chaos, sarcastic humor, St. Louis energy, and a daily podcast that sounds like your funniest friends trapped in a group chat with microphones, welcome home.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, we sit down with Peter Sheppard and his daughter Heather Sheppard-Lunn of Sheppard Farm on Apple Hill in south-central Pennsylvania as they look ahead to a milestone 50th anniversary celebration. Peter shares how the fold began in 1976 with just six cows and one bull—and how decades of intentional breeding built a program centered on traditional Scottish Highland standards, calving ease, and foraging ability, resulting in 560+ registered animals in the National Herdbook.Heather talks about launching their direct-to-customer grass-fed Highland beef sales in 2008, growing the herd to serve both beef buyers and brood cow clients, and preparing the next generation as her daughters get involved. Together, they discuss why they carefully screen buyers and what it means to bring home an Apple Hill Highland—clean genetics, classic conformation, and a long-term commitment to the breed.Sheppard Farms on Apple Hill: http://www.sheppardfarmonapplehill.com/Send us Fan Mail From the Pasture with Hired Hand:Hired Hand Websites (@hiredhandwebsites): https://hiredhandsoftware.comHired Hand Live (@hiredhandlive): https://hiredhandlive.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hiredhandwebsites/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HiredHandSoftwareTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hiredhandwebsitesNewsletter: https://www.hiredhandsoftware.com/resources/stay-informed
This week, Pastor John Durham kicked off our new series Hey Jude with a message from Jude 1-4, reminding us of the beauty and security of our salvation. The truth of the gospel is that Christians have been called by God, fully loved, and eternally kept through Christ.

There are places in Iceland that are easy to visit. And then there are places that require a bit more effort, but reward you in ways you honestly don't expect. I'm sharing 5 places across the country that are absolutely worth the detour. These aren't your typical Golden Circle stops. These are the kinds of places that make people say: “Wait… THIS was in Iceland?!” If you're planning a trip and want to go beyond the basics, this list is for you. Table of Contents How to Reach These Places (Car & Camper Van Tips) Látrabjarg (Westfjords) Seyðisfjörður (East Iceland) Hveradalir (Highlands) Plan Your Trip with My Iceland Map Westman Islands / Vestmannaeyjar (South Iceland) Siglufjörður (North Iceland) Sample Route Using These 5 Detours Random Fact of the Episode Icelandic Word of the Episode How to Reach These Places (And Save on Your Rental) Let's be real for a second. To visit places like these, especially the Westfjords, Highlands, and North Iceland, you'll need your own vehicle. Public transport won't get you to most of these locations, and guided tours often don't go this far off the beaten path. That's where having the right rental car or camper van makes all the difference. I personally use and recommend: Go Car Rental Iceland Go Campers I've partnered with them for years because: They have a wide variety of vehicles (from small cars to fully equipped campers) Their customer service is amazing And they make it easy to travel around Iceland confidently How to Save + Get Free Extras When you use my link:gorentals.is/allthingsiceland You'll automatically get: 7% off your rental Plus some really helpful extras Here's exactly what to do: For Go Car Rental: Click the link and enter your travel dates The 7% discount is automatically applied When you get to “Insurance & Extras” Select 4G WiFiYou'll see the price does not increase, it stays the same For Go Campers: Click the same link and choose your camper The 7% discount is automatically applied Under the “Sleeping” section Select a sleeping bag Again, the price stays the same It's one of those little things that makes a big difference when you're traveling around Iceland. 1. Látrabjarg (Westfjords) If you're craving something remote, raw, and wildly beautiful, this is it. Látrabjarg is the westernmost point of Iceland, and is known for its dramatic sea cliffs and incredible birdlife. Why Látrabjarg worth the detour: One of the best places in Iceland to see puffins up close Massive cliffs stretching for kilometers A true “edge of the world” feeling Important tips: The road can be rough, so take it slow Best visited in summer (June–mid August for puffins) Not recommended in winter, late fall or early spring. You can use a 2wd to get here but a 4×4 makes the trip easier and smoother. This is exactly the type of destination where having the right vehicle matters. 2. Seyðisfjörður (East Iceland) This town feels like stepping into a completely different side of Iceland. The drive into Seyðisfjörður alone is unforgettable. The winding road down a mountain pass into a peaceful fjord surrounded by waterfalls is incredible. What makes Seyðisfjörður special: Eclectic, artistic vibe The iconic
