The new year always brings a wave of home decor trends — but 2026 is shaping up to be less about what's “in” and more about how our homes feel. In this episode, I'm breaking down the top 10 home decor and interior design trends for 2026 that designers across the industry are consistently predicting. These aren't fads — they're thoughtful shifts toward comfort, intention, sustainability, and homes that support real life. If you're decorating, redecorating, or simply craving a home that feels more cohesive and cozy, this episode will help you understand what's coming next — and how to use trends without letting them overwhelm you. In this episode, we cover: Using texture as a foundational design element Why layered textures — from textiles to finishes — are becoming essential in 2026 interior design and how they instantly make a home feel warmer and more lived-in. Honoring heritage and personal history in home decor The return of meaningful pieces, vintage finds, heirlooms, and decor that tells a story instead of following fast trends. Biophilic design and bringing nature indoors How plants, natural light, organic materials, and nature-inspired design are shaping healthier, calmer homes. Layering as a core decorating principle From rugs to lighting to accessories, designers are emphasizing depth, dimension, and thoughtful layering over minimalism. Color drenching and monochromatic color stories Why single-color rooms and tonal palettes are trending in 2026 — and how they create cohesion without feeling boring. Warm, earthy color palettes replacing cool neutrals Think clay, camel, olive, brown, mushroom, and soft terracotta — colors that ground a space and make it feel welcoming. The renewed focus on form and function Furniture and decor that look beautiful but also work hard for everyday living are a major priority in 2026 home design. Sustainable luxury and conscious decorating choices Fewer pieces, better quality, eco-conscious materials, and thoughtful purchasing decisions that balance beauty and responsibility. The return of cozy textures like faux fur Designers are embracing warmth and softness through faux fur accents, plush textiles, and tactile comfort. An emphasis on irregularity, imperfection, and organic shapes Why homes are moving away from symmetry and perfection — and embracing character, patina, and uniqueness.

Barry covers our seventh maxim, which encourages us to consider two questions in a particular order before we decide on an action. Honoring this order for these particular questions is especially important in two situations: 1) when faced with decisions in our pragmatic culture, and 2) when suffering enters the picture.     Scriptures: Prov […]

Welcome to Season 6 of Glow Brighter with Toni and the start of a brand-new year.At the beginning of every year, we're flooded with messages about fixing, improving, planning, and pushing forward and instead of feeling inspired, it can feel overwhelming.In this episode, I talk about: • Why 2025 being a 9 year and the Year of the Snake was about endings, shedding, and preparation • Why 2026 is a 1 year and the Year of the Horse, signaling fresh starts but not all at once • How Human Design reminds us that the new year doesn't energetically begin until later in January • And why timing matters more than pressureI also share a story about a friend who realized just how stressed she felt — and how we're affected by the many layers around us: our relationships, work, community, and the world at large.At the center of all those layers is you — your nucleus.My mantra for this year is simple and steady: Keep going.Keep going while honoring yourself.Keep going even when the outer layers feel chaotic.Keep going — and resting when you need to — knowing that returning is part of the process.

Hello Dear Wise Co Creators! I'm dropping in here as we cross the threshold of the completion of one linear calendar year and the start of the next with a ritual that never tires, and is like super food for our hearts, minds and spirits ... it's all about honoring and receiving from what you have already done, and using that energy to replenish yourself, so you can create from momentum as we rise up into a new year cycle vs. hit the ground running. I originally created this ritual episode in 2024, but I tuned in to it again today and I was like, must share this with all of you.! And invite you to take a walk with it, or journal with it, or just meditate, cook, sit whatever with it. This year more than ever, we need it. ENJOY!  Here's a little about the power of Honor: The energy and act of "Honoring" is one of the most powerful things we have access to, but that we often under use. Honoring is a form a love. It melts away the heavy feels, the judgements of not enough, the pressure to do more. It turns struggle into comfort and possibility.  We think of honor as something someone else has to give to us - when in reality we have the power to bestow honor upon ourselves, in a healthy way, with humility and dignity.  I invoke the super power of honor & this ritual every year at this time because:  I continue to see the power it has to open our hearts, lighten us up, fill us up and give us a way to start the next cycle radiant & clear, roooted in our enoughness. Doing this ritual at the year end start threshold really supports us to see and feel and VALUE the invisible things we've done PLUS see and acknowledge others in our lives for the invisible and important ways they show up. In this episode of Feminine Power Time - 258: The Year-End Honoring & Receiving Ritual - I'll walk you through this honoring ritual that I do every year for myself, 1:1 with others, with groups & teams, so you can really FEEL the honor, shining a light in these three areas:  INVISIBLE INTERNAL GROWTH: the things you can't measure but have made a signficiant difference, especially all the internal shift and growth, and the things you do that can go unseen but matter alot INVISIBLE IMPACT ON PEOPLE & PLANET - how your presence and care has made a difference in real people's lives and the frequency of the planet  INCREMENTAL PROGRESS - celebrating how projects, goals, dreams, reality shifts are more in form today May this ritual fill you up with radiance, good vibes and a deep sense of how your presence, care, devotion, and choices matter. With heart, Christine P.S. SHARE THIS EPISODE WITH A FRIEND + DO AN HONORING RITUAL TOGETHER. Share what you are Honoring in these different areas for this year. Use the words "I am proud that ...

Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 0:48  Hi, Be It babe. Oh my God, it is the first, it's the first FYF of a new year. So, happy fucking new year. Happy Fuck Yeah Friday. Oh my gosh, if you had to, like, actually go to work. I hope you get the longest weekend. Because, like, why would you have to go in today? Okay, so if you are new to our podcast and you're dropping on today, this is the short, sweet and off the cuff episode where I celebrate wins of yours a win of mine. So we can see that, like, wins exist all the time. Actually have something for you guys next week where I'm sharing something that is really like, is really like the be it till you see it and why, well, celebrating is so important. And a little inspiration, a little mantra, okay? So I wanted to take the inspiration on day one of this book, Journey to the Heart from Melody Beattie, that I really love. It's like one of those, like daily meditation books. I have three of these. And because I'm I'm recovering over achiever, and I read three daily, you know, we're getting there. I actually will say one of them I'm almost done with, and I don't need to reread it, or two of, like this one I reread every year. So because I miss some days and you gotta, so I'll just explain, if you because you're not watching. So it's one of those things, like on January one, there's one to read January two, blah, blah, blah. And she even has one, one that's a leap year, so it's pretty cool. And I have Gay Hendricks' book Your Big Leap Year, which I love, because I love reading his book every single year. And this one feels like I'm reading his book all year long, and that's really fun. And then I have this other one that's cute and it's sweet, and it's like, sometimes it just hits the wrong way. So I'm finishing it and I'm giving it away, because I think it'll be good for somebody else. Just doesn't hit me, right, well, so I'll have two and then I'm, you've heard like I went as I have a hobby, you know? And one of my hobbies is like pulling a daily card and percolating on it on my walk, which I'm that's like the hobby that I'm going to start in this new year, once I'm home, I'm not home yet, so can't do that. Lesley Logan 2:40  So January one, this is what she said, and I wanted to share with you. Honor the beginning. Beginnings can be delicate or explosive. They can start almost invisibly or arrive with a big bang. Beginnings hold the promise of new lessons to be learned, new territory to be explored, and old lessons to be recalled, practiced and appreciated. Beginnings hold ambiguity, promise, fear and hope. Don't let the lessons, the experience of the past, dampen your enthusiasm for beginnings. Just because it's been hard doesn't mean it will always be that difficult. Don't let the heart breaks of the past cause you to be cynical, close you up to life's magic and promise. Open yourself wide to all the universe has to say. Let yourself begin anew. Pack your bags. Choose carefully what you bring, because packing is an important ritual. Take along some humility of the lessons of the past. Toss in some curiosity and excitement about what you haven't yet learned. Say your goodbyes to those who are you're leaving behind. Don't worry who you will meet or where you will go. The way has been prepared. The people you are to meet will be expecting you. A new journey has begun. Let it be magical. Let it unfold. All parts of the journey are sacred and holy. Take time now to honor the beginning. So that is for January one. If you get the book, you can read January two. Anyways, I make nothing off of it. I love this book, Journey to the Heart. So I like to start this episode off each week with like something that inspired me. Sometimes it inspires me in like a fiery way, and sometimes it inspires me in like a way worth reflecting. And it's really easy for us as we begin this new year to kind of bring in last year's stuff, right? And I actually don't believe in New year, new you. I actually believe in updates and upgrades and and I also actually don't even believe that it starts on the first year. You can start at any time. I mean, like, my cell phone has a new update all the time, and it's like, okay, it's a new year for that cell phone. It's a new cycle. So whether or not you're coming to this year with excitement and joy, of like, what could become or fear because of what could continue. I do think it's important to recognize beginnings, and I do think it's good to reflect about what we are unpacking, like, what aren't we taking from last year into this year? That doesn't mean you're a new person, it just means you no longer have that thing. And maybe that is a physical clean out of something you own, or maybe it's a mental letting go, cutting the cord. But I do hope that you take some time for that, and I think that's what's so fun about these FYFs. It's like each week can be one thing that we let go of, or add to, and that isn't overwhelming, right? It's not so overwhelming. So that's something for you to think about. Lesley Logan 5:25  Wins. I've got some wins that were sent in. All right. shannanlikestomove wrote in she wrote, "Big maintenance event on both reformers. Old grease boogers gone. New grease in!" I love it. Isn't that so fun, you guys? A win can just be that you cleaned your reformer because, oh my God, doesn't that take up so much space? on_point_pilates_studio wrote, "Got in the hot sauna today! Self-care for the win" Yeah. I mean, there's so many different things you could have been doing right? On_point, you could have been like, I could pay this bill, I could check this email. But you're like, no, I'm getting that hot sauna. And etain.pilates wrote, "Honestly, I just made it through a challenging week." You know, that's a win. That is a win, just like you made it through and it is Friday and you got to the end, and so good on you. All right, a win of mine. We are still on tour. We are on the last days of the tour, and my win is, I'm still enjoying myself. I'm still enjoying myself. I think it there, there's this idea that, like, if other people have other things going on and there's terrible things happening in the world, then I can't have more good and an excellent episode with Brad Bisjack, in one of his courses, he actually said, like, people said, I feel bad wanting to have more when, like so many people have less. And his response is like, nobody wins when you play small. And I really do appreciate every single one of these stops that we get to do, because I know, like, I learn every time I teach, every time I meet people and I teach like, I learn from the question they ask. I learn from the environment. I learn from looking at their body's move. I learn from their learning style understanding what I'm saying, like, oh, that's how you took that. That's so fascinating. That's not what I meant, like I learn from all that. And so I also love that these pop ups can come in the middle of a crazy week for someone, and can be a positive stop to the chaos. And so they're so important to me that that we do them because it can be the pause that someone needs, the cup feeling that someone needs. I love doing that for people, and I love that my win is, is that I'm still enjoying myself along the way, because it is so easy for the questions of, aren't you tired? And I know that those questions are meaningful, but every time someone asks, aren't you tired? Aren't you tired? Aren't you tired? Like it's so easy for the brain to latch onto that and go, am I tired? I'm like, no, I'm having a great time. I'm having a great time. And that is my win. I'm not letting the societal pressures and questions of like, I should be tired by now, and I, you know, all this different stuff, get to me. I'm actually allowing myself to be so present and in the moment and enjoy what we put together, and what my team has put together, and all of the people that have come and the impact we're making, like I'm enjoying all of it, and that's my win. Lesley Logan 8:26  So, now, your mantra for today. This mantra actually came from an Instagram comment that is couple I'll just be honest. It's a couple months back, but you know, we're getting it to you now. This is from me.shay_427. My body is not my resume. My body is not my resume. My body is not my resume. I love this mantra so much I especially wanted, I saved it for this first FYF, because I think the pressures of society, especially with all that's going on, is like you've got to be just thinner and thinner and thinner and, my goodness, you guys, they want us so busy, like, distracting ourselves with self hate and all the stuff that we have to change about ourselves that we aren't noticing all the things they're trying to take from us. They don't want you playing big, because then you will take up their version of the pie. There's no pie. There's no pie of power, there's no pie of money, there's no pie of energy, and so take up all the fucking space, okay, and your body is not a resume. So go have a great day. Share this with a friend who needs to hear it. It would help this podcast grow very, very much. And I hope you're enjoying the series we've got going on. We've got some other series coming up.

The Frankfurt School's own legacy is best preserved by exercising an immanent critique of its premises and the conclusions to which they often led. By distinguishing between what is still and what is no longer alive in Critical Theory, Immanent Critiques: The Frankfurt School Under Pressure (Verso, 2023) seeks to demonstrate its continuing relevance in the 21st century. Fifty years after the appearance of The Dialectical Imagination, his pioneering history of the Frankfurt School, Martin Jay reflects on what may be living and dead in its legacy. Rather than treating it with filial piety as a fortress to be defended, he takes seriously its anti-systematic impulse and sensitivity to changing historical circumstances.  Honoring the Frankfurt School's practice of immanent critique, he puts critical pressure on a number of its own ideas by probing their contradictory impulses. Among them are the pathologization of political deviance through stigmatizing "authoritarian personalities," the undefended theological premises of Walter Benjamin's work, and the ambivalence of its members' analyses of anti-Semitism and Zionism. Additional questions are asked about other time-honored Marxist themes: the meaning of alienation, the alleged damages of abstraction, and the advocacy of a politics based on a singular notion of the truth. Rather, however, than allowing these questions to snowball into an unwarranted repudiation of the Frankfurt School legacy as a whole, the essay collection also acknowledges a number of its still potent arguments. They explore its neglected, but now timely analysis of "racket society," Adorno's dialectical reading of aesthetic sublimation, and the unexpected implications of Benjamin's focus on the corpse for political theory. Jay shows that it is a still evolving theoretical tradition which offers resources for the understanding of–and perhaps even practical betterment–of our increasingly troubled world.

John 13:1-11,Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. 2 During supper, when the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him, 3 Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he had come from God and was going back to God, 4 rose from supper. He laid aside his outer garments, and taking a towel, tied it around his waist. 5 Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him. 6 He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?” 7 Jesus answered him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.” 8 Peter said to him, “You shall never wash my feet.” Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you have no share with me.” 9 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only but also my hands and my head!” 10 Jesus said to him, “The one who has bathed does not need to wash, except for his feet, but is completely clean. And you are clean, but not every one of you.” 11 For he knew who was to betray him; that was why he said, “Not all of you are clean.”Last Sunday, we saw that the gospel of John is a book comprised of two sections. The first section, chapters 1-12, has been called the book of signs, in which: Jesus' location frequently changes. For three years he's traveling, back-and-forth, between Galilee and Jerusalem with stops in Samaria and Bethany in between. During this time, he's also gathering crowds. Such large crowds, in fact, that he's at one point in danger of being trampled by them. And he's working miracles — so definitive and comprehensive that no realm of reality, whether Satan and demons, forces of nature, or even the human body could claim to have remained outside his jurisdiction. And he's teaching — in sermons, in conversations, in questions, in parables — all with such unparalleled authority that he renders his audience speechless, stunned. That's the first section of John's gospel, chapters 1-12.Today, our sermon text begins the second section of John's gospel, what's rightly been called, the book of glory. Here, unlike section one: Jesus' location will not change — he'll remain in Jerusalem till his death. The crowds will no longer be involved, at least not throughout the next five chapters. Jesus will not be working miracles. He will not be teaching in parables. Rather, Jesus will mainly be speaking — plainly and deliberately — to his small, rag-tag group of men he called his 12, soon-to-be 11, disciples. All the while, we are those who are invited in, brought in, by John to this most private, intimate and pivotal of settings — the final moments of the Savior prior to the cross. This morning, we'll aim to set the scene for this book of glory by taking a look at four things: the Identity of Jesus, the Love of Jesus, and two Warnings from Jesus.First, the Identity of Jesus.IdentityIt's a fitting thing to begin with. After all, Jesus' identity is the very thing that's been most doubted, debated, and called into question up to this point in the story. We've heard statements like:1:46, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” 4:12, “Are you greater than our father Jacob?”6:30, “Then what sign do you do, that we may see and believe you?” 6:42, “Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know?”8:48, “Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?”10:20, “He has a demon, and is insane; why listen to him?” It's quite the chorus of animosity, yes? And yet, chapter 13 is quick to show us that despite the many reproaches, Jesus remains unshaken.Verse 1,“Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father…”You see it? No doubts. No questions. No confusion here. All along, Jesus has known his hour was coming. He has known his hour was the very thing he came here for. He has known his hour would be a time when he'd be glorified (John 12:23). And now, he knows his hour has come.A major aspect of Jesus' identity, of course, relates to this hour. And yet, even more basic to his identity, is what we see in verse three. Look down with me at verse 3:“Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he had come from God and was going back to God…”Picture this with me for a moment. Like, put yourself there, in that very room, in this very moment:Here stands Jesus — a plainly clothed Jewish carpenter from Galilee. He's in a borrowed space — an upper room of someone else's home. He's flanked by fishermen, a tax collector, and a host of other unimpressive men. By the looks of it, he has little money, or perhaps even no money, to his name. And yet, here stands the man who rules the world. The one before whom every knee will one day fall. The supreme object of the Father's eternal smile.Jesus, in that moment, knew all that. He knew he'd ultimately come from God. That he, though headed to the grave, was ultimately headed back to God in Heaven. That despite appearances, his Father had placed all things in his hand. His is an unrivaled identity — the only Son from the Father. That's point one: the identity of Jesus.Point two: the Love of Jesus.Amazingly, these two marks appear side-by-side in the narrative. Following the report of Jesus' high and exalted identity, we find his love for his own people. LoveLook back with me to verse 1:“Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.”For anyone in the room this morning wondering: “Now, why did Jesus, on his very last night, choose to move away from the crowds? Like, up to this point, Jesus has regularly welcomed the masses. Not all the time, to be sure, but much of the time. So, why then, in his final hours, did Jesus choose to “lock himself up in a room,” so-to-speak, with only this small, hand-selected group of men?” Answer: Because he loved them. And you might think: “Well, yeah, of course he loved them. Jesus loves the world.” That's not wrong. Jesus, like his Father, loves the world, hence, John 3:16. It would be a mistake, however, to equate Jesus' love for the world with Jesus' love for his own. The two are not identical, but distinct. And, in fact, you can see that distinction, right here in verse one:“[Jesus] having loved his own who were in the world.”You see it? It's not: having loved his own just as he loved the world, but “having loved his own who were in the world.”Jesus' love here, in other words, is specific: He's talking about the love he has for this particular people — “his own.”And, Jesus' love is persistent: He will love his own to the end — all through and well beyond the nails, the thorns, and the spear. Jesus' love, in this text, is the unique love he has for his sheep… The ones who hear his voice, and believe in his name. The ones for whom, in his hour of glory, he will lay his life down for. How About You?And how about you? Are you his this morning? Have you heard his voice? Have you come to see that this Jewish carpenter from Galilee is in fact God in the flesh and Savior of your soul? Then this very love that we're talking about here is the love he has for you.It's December 28th, yes? Christmas Sunday. Much of the holidays are now behind you. Even more of the year 2025 is now behind you. As you look back, you may see evidences of Jesus' love for you — popping up in your memory, your calendar, the images on your phone. If you see these evidences, boy, savor those things. Ask God to impress them deep into your soul that you may not forget them in days ahead. But for those of you who, as you look back, think: “You know, I feel like I just got kicked in the teeth this Christmas. In fact, really this entire year. In fact, life has been tasting bitter now for quite a number of years. I look out for evidences of Jesus' love for me, and, if I'm honest, I'm just not seeing them.” ….If that's you, then allow me to invite you this morning to turn your focus to these words instead. To set your perception of the events of life to the side. To instead, humbly before the Lord, hear him say to you, “I have loved you, and am loving you, and will continue to love you to the end.” Jesus' love for you if you are his, brother or sister, is a particular and persistent love — active today just as it was on the cross and just as it will be in the age to come.What's the identity of Jesus? He's from God, going to God, having all things in his hand.What's the love of Jesus? It's the particular, persistent love he has for his own.What about the two warnings from Jesus? Well, they're going to come in just a moment, but not before the scene shifts.Jesus the ServantJesus, knowing the love he has for his disciples, is now going to demonstrate that love through what was, at that time, one of the lowest forms of human service imaginable.It is a jolting transition to say the least. Jesus, verse 4, rises from supper. He takes off his outer garments. He grabs a servant's towel. Then, after pouring some water into a basin, he begins to “wash the disciples' feet and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him.” Now, consider how absolutely soiled his disciples' feet would've been at this time — having just been walking for miles, without shoes, on roads made up of packed-down dirt and animal manure. And consider how filthy that water, as Jesus went from washing one of his disciples' feet to another, would've been getting. And the towel! The very towel that Jesus had around his body, pressing against his skin — how soaked with filth it would've appeared.So it's no wonder that by the time Jesus gets to Peter and sets down the basin before him, Peter just can't take it anymore. It's as if the shock of seeing a man so superior to himself stooped down to such degrees of humiliation just finally became too much for him to bear. Verse 6 reads:“He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?”Jesus says to Peter, I believe, sympathetically, assuringly, verse 7:“What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.”Nevertheless, Peter continues his resistance. He cannot understand what Jesus is doing. Cannot fathom ever being able to understand what Jesus is doing. And so he declares, verse 8:“You shall never wash my feet.”First WarningWhat a terrifying thing to say to a Savior. What an eternity-threatening response. And Jesus treats it as such, responding to it with one of the most sobering, consequential warnings in all the Bible. In verse 8, Jesus warns,“If I do not wash you, you have no share with me.”Just think over those words for a moment: No share with Jesus. None. Peter's response, in other words, has got him teetering on the brink of complete dislocation from Jesus. But why is that? I mean, wasn't Peter just trying to be respectful of Jesus? Honoring, even? I mean, “Jesus, you walk on water. You calm storms. I'm not going to have you wash my feet.” …No? Well then, Peter, who are you going to have wash your feet? It's true. Peter's resistance may well have been his attempt at honoring Jesus, but what it did was threaten to demote Jesus instead. Demote him. Downgrade Jesus from the rank of Total, Absolute Savior to the level of partial, limited Savior.The kind of savior who serves his people this far, but no further. The kind who cleanses these sins, but not those sins. The kind who is received by his people not on his terms, but on theirs. The kind who may provide bread, bring healing, and even calm storms, but certainly won't wash feet.Peter's resistance did not honor, but demote Jesus, or at least threaten to. And it is something we all have a tendency to do.Think about it: when you sin — like when you catch yourself saying something unkind, having a thought that's unclean, doing something you know is wrong, and then realize your guilt — do you always go immediately to Jesus asking to be forgiven? Like, the moment you sin, do you always go right away to Jesus, totally empty-handed, saying: Jesus, cleanse me again?Or, do you sometimes wait a bit… To let your guilt subside first. Or to rack up a few good works first. Or to wallow in greater degrees of misery first? I mean, you're not just going to go to Jesus just like that, with your unadulterated sin so fresh out of the oven, are you?If not, then what you're attempting to do instead is take the edge off your sin. Take it from a boil, down to a simmer. Get it to a point where it is, at least, slightly less abhorrent than it was originally before handing it over to Jesus. And the reason we do that — Note: The reason we do that — is because in our pride, we don't actually want a Total, Absolute Savior to help us with our sin. We don't. Rather, what we want is to demote Jesus to the level of partial Savior, because when we do, guess who gets promoted to the level of partial Savior right alongside him?You see it? Peter's resistance, as well as ours, is not really about Jesus' honor at all. It's about human pride, and our desire to have a claim on our salvation.Here's the thing: Jesus doesn't respond to Peter with gratitude. “Oh, thank goodness, I was hoping I'd not have to wash your feet.” He responds to Peter with a warning:“If I do not wash you, you have no share with me.”Said another way: To be saved by me, Peter, you must also be served by me — and that at your very worst. Your very lowest. Your very ugliest. You must place even your feet into my hands.Jesus is as an Absolute, Total Savior. He will be received as such or he will not be received at all. That's our first warning. The second is much quicker. In fact, it's not even technically a warning, but I would like us to hear it as such this morning.Second WarningIn verse 9, Peter responds to Jesus with his usual, over-the-top vigor:“‘Lord, not my feet only but also my hands and my head!' Jesus said to him, ‘The one who has bathed does not need to wash, except for his feet, but is completely clean. And you are clean, but not every one of you.”Again, this is not technically a warning. It's a judgment. Judas, one of the twelve, was not clean. To use language from the first warning: Judas “had no share” with Jesus, for his heart had been given over to Satan. Just as we read in verse 2:“During supper, when the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him.”So Judas has got Satan motivating him. It's Satan's will he's submitted to, not God's.But the reason I'd like us to heed all this as a warning is because Judas gave off no outward impression that he was in rebellion to Jesus. In fact, we have no biblical evidence suggesting any one of his fellow disciples ever suspected Judas was the one who would betray Jesus. Judas had looked the part. Had done all the things. He'd been present for the many conversations, sermons, and miracles throughout the past three years of his public ministry. In fact, Judas, just as all the other disciples, had just finished getting his feet washed by Jesus in that upper room.But despite outward appearance, when it came to who Judas was inwardly — what Judas really loved, to what Judas really treasured — it was not Jesus. His treasure may have been money, power, praise — regardless, the fact of the matter is that despite all Judas had seen, heard, and experienced, there was still something in the world Judas valued more than Jesus. So, when finally given the opportunity to gain it by losing Jesus, he took it. He agreed to betray Jesus.Brothers and sisters, beware of increasing in Jesus-oriented things, and Jesus-oriented practices, apart from a Jesus-oriented heart. We don't want to be known as the people who merely do things for Jesus, but the people who value Jesus above all things. We want, as the Apostle Paul, to be the kind of people, the kind of disciples, who increasingly count Christ as gain, and all other things as loss in comparison to him.So, the identity of Jesus: He's from God, going to God, having all things in his hand.The love of Jesus: It's the particular, persistent love he has for his own.The warnings from Jesus: You cannot have him as partial Savior. You cannot have him unless your heart treasures him to the end.TableNow, what brings us to the table this morning is the fact that the footwashing we see here in John 13 — counter-intuitive and challenging to human pride as it may have been — was really just a preview. A foreshadowing, of the even greater ignominy still to come. In a mere matter of hours…Jesus' outer garments are not going to be set down by him, but stripped off by Roman soldiers. Jesus' hands are not going to be wet with water, but his own blood. Jesus' skin is not going to be dirtied by his disciples' feet, but pierced for his disciples' sin. Jesus is going to hang on a cross, loving his own people to the very end.

Robin Long is the Founder and CEO of Lindywell, a global wellness brand helping women build strength, reduce stress, and find balance through Pilates, nutrition and nervous.system support. What began in her living room has grown into a global digital platform serving tens of thousands of members in over 80 countries - and recently celebrated 10 years of empowering women to feel strong, vibrant, and resilient at every age. Her “grace over guilt” philosophy and sustainable approach to wellness have been featured on The Today Show, LIVE with Kelly & Ryan, Well + Good, and the Lindywell app was voted Best Pilates App by Women's Health Magazine. As a mom of four, Robin is passionate about building a company that aligns with her values - proving it's possible to grow a successful business while prioritizing family, health, and purpose. In this episode, Robin shares how nervous system dysregulation impacts exercise tolerance, blood sugar balance, hormone health, and mental well-being, especially for women in midlife. Together, Erin and Robin unpack why intensity isn't always better, how short consistent movement supports resilience, and how nourishment, breath, and self-compassion create true healing from the inside out. This conversation weaves science, psychology, and faith into a compassionate framework for sustainable strength, calm, and purpose, reminding us that wholeness begins when the body feels safe. Key Topics: - How Pilates rebuilds connection to the body instead of punishing it - The hidden nervous system cost of high-intensity, all-or-nothing workouts - Why consistency matters more than intensity for long-term health - Nervous system dysregulation, burnout, and midlife hormone shifts - How stress and over-exercise contribute to blood sugar dysregulation - Why protein, fat, and fiber stabilize both mood and energy - Nutrition “noise” to let go of (supplement overload, perfectionism) - Why the body can't heal if it doesn't feel safe - Redefining health beyond body size, aesthetics, and fitness culture - Self-compassion as a biological regulator, not just a mindset shift - Honoring your God-given purpose through sustainable care of your body Download Robin's Lindywell app to access her workouts, recipes, and mediations.

As we kick off a new season on the show, I felt it was essential I also end the season of the year with an episode that I feel is beneficial to us all. I have shared this previously on the show, but sometimes we need to hear things more than once for it really to land and maybe the season you are in is exactly when you are ready for it. 4 years ago I started doing something that helped me enter the New Year more intentionally. It wasn't about doing another vision board, but yes I like to do those as well, It was a process that helped me end the year off peacefully and enter the new year powerfully. It wasn't about setting some New year's resolution that falls away after the first month. This was about reflecting, releasing, renewing, and creating; and then wrapping it all with a bow and setting my intention. Because this process has been so beneficial to me, I wanted to share it with all of you.  My hope is after this episode today, you will think about how you are leading your life with intention and if you are not, this is your permission to pause, reflect, and honor the season you are in. Maybe what you need is that precious time to be intentional in what matters most to you right now so that the next steps you take will be led with clarity, more focus, and a better sense of purpose and direction. In this episode I discuss: The importance of leading with intention Honoring the seasons Powerful questions to ask yourself Setting intentions for the new year Powerful process to living intentionally  For full show notes and episode resources head to: https://ericalippy.com/the-4-step-reset/ Watch episode on YouTube Episode mentions:   Download 'My Intentional Year' HERE Erica Lippy | Website  Follow me on Social Media: Listen on YouTube Your Host: @ericalippy Podcast: @passionlovepursuit PASSION LOVE PURSUIT PODCASTS: https://ericalippy.com/the-podcast/

How do we make space for our grief in the midst of what is often called a joyful season? What happens when the traditions we once cherished become painful reminders of those no longer at our table?Author Lanier Ivester understands the deep ache of loss and how it reshapes the holidays. After walking through multiple griefs—many within a single year—Lanier found herself reimagining the Christmas season traditions she once loved. Through that process, she discovered how to honor her grief while allowing traditions to evolve in ways that nurture connection and relationship.In her book, Glad and Golden Hours: A Companion for Advent and Christmastide, Lanier shares cherished practices—many of which were passed down from her mother and explores the rich theology of the Christmas season—a theology that embraces both joy and sorrow in sacred tension.In this episode, Davey sits down with Lanier to discuss how grief transforms our experience of the holidays, the invitation Advent offers to bring both our celebration and lament before God, and how to thoughtfully engage—or release—traditions after loss.If you or someone you love is hurting this Christmas, this conversation offers a gentle reminder: this season is spacious enough to hold your pain and still whisper the hope of Christ—Emmanuel, God with us.

How do we stay rooted when experiencing stories of injustice, one after another, while navigating a world that often wants to suppress our grief and anger? What is sacred about rage, and what kinds of rage are sacred? And what do we reorient ourselves towards when the dominant systems of extraction and exploitation tend to discourage acts of radical care, reciprocity, and shared abundance?In this episode, Green Dreamer's kaméa speaks with Dr. Jennifer Mullan, a major disruptor in the mental health industrial complex and the author of Decolonizing Therapy: Oppression, Historical Trauma and Politicizing Your Practice.Join us as we explore what it means to stay human during times of fracture, honoring our dynamic range of emotions from joy to heartbreak, and to tether our sacred rage to movements greater than ourselves.We invite you to…tune in and subscribe to Green Dreamer via any podcast app;tap into our bonus extended and video version of this conversation on Patreon here;and read highlights from these conversations via Kaméa's newsletter here.Music credits:“New song old prayer,” by Johanna Warren

"Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see" Hebrews 11:1 NIVIn this episode we talk:Honoring the detours, the jobs that didn't work out, and the seasons that didn't look like success but quietly built us.Learning to recognize your own growth, effort, and progress because many of us are already living inside a prayer we whispered years ago.Releasing the fear of doing life “out of order,” and trusting that trailblazing your own path means moving on a divine timeline that can't be rushed or replicated.and SO much more...Follow Madison: @madisoncicconeWork with Madison 1 x1: https://stan.store/MadisonCicconeMadison's Website: https://madisonciccone.com/Buy the Gratitude Journal on Amazon PrimeRide with her at SoulCycle in Boston

In this moving and important episode, Paul Rieckhoff sits down with his old friend, acclaimed and courageous director Craig Renaud to discuss his HBO documentary, Armed Only with a Camera: The Life and Death of Brent Renaud, which honors his brother Brent, a brave and renowned journalist killed in Ukraine in 2022. Reflecting on two decades of shared history covering global conflicts, they explore the soaring cost of war and the increasingly dangerous environment for reporters. The conversation highlights a troubling shift toward restricted press access and state-led propaganda, emphasizing why "unflinching, human" truth-telling is more vital—and perilous—than ever for both troops and democracy. This conversation is as powerful as it gets. Craig shares raw, deeply personal reflections on making a film about his brother's murder, how the editing room became a place of grief and healing, and why he felt a duty to show the reality of Brent's death exactly the way Brent would have wanted: unflinching, human, and in service of others caught in the crossfire. It's a story that reveals the soaring cost of war, a brutally dangerous new era for reporters, and why truth-telling now takes more courage than ever. From the Arkansan National Guard in Iraq, to the war on drugs, to the war in Ukraine, Craig has seen it all. And documented it.  This is the kind of conversation that transcends politics and party. This is the kind of conversation that everyone should have to hear. This is the kind of conversation that reminds us of the price that is paid by the vigilant—and why we can never forget them and should always celebrate the best parts of them. It'll give you many reasons to be more thankful this holiday season.  Because every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the most important news stories--and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows.
