In this episode of The Concordia Publishing House Podcast, Elizabeth Pittman is joined by Rev. Dr R. Lee Hagan, author of Faithful, Hopeful, and Bold: Encouragement for the Church. During the episode, Hagan reminds listeners that wherever God's Word is proclaimed, there is hope for His people. Get Hagan's new book at cph.org/hagan.  Show NotesOur world is constantly shifting, changing, and moving away from Christianity. This post-Christian culture feels bleak and full of hopelessness for the next generation and the future of our congregations. Yet, the current generations are not the first to have faced this struggle.In his new book, Rev. Dr. R. Lee Hagan brings readers 12 different stories and reflections that address the hopelessness and struggle in today's churches. The book is perfect for church leaders to find spiritual encouragement and strengthen the faith in their own congregations. Hagan discusses the ins and outs of writing the book with host Elizabeth Pittman, as well as how church leaders should respond to the despair felt for the future of the church, how leadership is centered in discipleship, what it means to be bold as a church leader today, and more. QuestionsWhat inspired you to write Faithful, Hopeful, and Bold? Why is it important for us today?The book opens by acknowledging the despair many Christians feel about the future of the church. What do you think are the root causes of that despair, and how should church leaders respond?In the reflection “Small Church, Big Savior,” you highlight the strength that comes from Christ to even the smallest congregations. What encouragement would you give to pastors or leaders of small churches?You mention that even in the closing of congregations, God's Word has not failed. Can you share a story or moment that illustrates that truth?In “Living as Exiles,” you compare our current culture to the exile experience in Scripture. How can congregations faithfully live as exiles without retreating or becoming combative?You write that “leaders are followers first.” In a culture obsessed with leadership, how can the church cultivate a different vision of leadership grounded in discipleship?What does it mean to be “bold” as a church leader today—and how does boldness differ from brashness or arrogance?You discuss grief over the past in “For Such a Time as This.” How can churches move from nostalgia to opportunity without losing their history or identity?How do you define success in ministry today, especially when metrics like attendance or offerings may be declining?You describe hope as a “gift of God” and “antidote to despair.” What practices can help church leaders personally stay rooted in that hope?Your final chapter is titled Quo Vademus? or “Where do we go from here?” If a church leader finishes your book and asks that very question—what's one step you hope they take next?How do you envision this book being used in congregational settings or among pastors?What's your prayer for the Church today as we seek to be faithful, hopeful, and bold in Christ?About the GuestRev. Dr. R. Lee Hagan serves as president of the Missouri District-LCMS and as chairman of the LCMS Council of Presidents. He is a 1992 graduate of Concordia College (now University), Seward, Nebraska. He graduated from Concordia Seminary, St. Louis with a Master of Divinity in 1996 and Doctor of Ministry in 2011.

In the fast-paced world of ministry - especially in places like New York City - it can be easy to drift into doing rather than being, managing rather than ministering. As small group leaders and disciple-makers, we're reminded that deep, lasting transformation often begins not with strategy, but with slowing down, embracing vulnerability, and learning to lead from a place of wholeness.In this thought-provoking episode host Brian Daniel welcomes Drew Hyun, author of Beautiful, Disappointing, Hopeful, to discuss the unique challenges and opportunities of ministry in New York City. Drew shares his personal journey from California to the East Coast, unpacking the spiritual dynamics of urban life - diversity, density, and the deep hunger for meaning.The conversation explores the need for prayerful dependence, the role of love in building community, and the powerful framework of Emotionally Healthy Discipleship. Drew dives into the emotional complexities leaders often overlook, urging a "slow-down spirituality" that helps us address the deeper layers of the human condition. He also reflects on suffering, the problem of evil, and how the Christian story offers enduring hope in the face of life's hardest questions.If you're looking to grow as a leader who not only disciples others but is also being discipled by grace, this episode will encourage you to embrace the beauty, disappointment, and hope found in following Jesus - right in the middle of real life.If this episode encouraged or challenged you, we'd love for you to rate and review the podcast, and don't forget to share it with a fellow leader walking the path of intentional, emotionally healthy discipleship.SHOW LINKS: Beautfiul, Disappointing, Hopeful CLICK HERE to read the report from Lifeway Research about the state of groups.

We live in a culture obsessed with hope. We are trained to believe that being hopeful is the key to success. Stay positive. The sun will come out tomorrow. Keep the faith. But maintaining that kind of blind hope is hard. When our hopes are dashed, we often feel defeated. In a world that's filled with lots of dark clouds and very few silver linings, perhaps we need a better way to balance our hope and our pessimism. In today's episode, Sean interviews philosopher Mara van der Lugt about her new book Hopeful Pessimism. The two talk about how to sustain hope when you're feeling pessimistic, the pitfalls of blind hope, and what the climate movement can teach us about staying motivated when success is unlikely. Host: Sean Illing (@SeanIlling)Guest: Mara van der Lugt, lecturer in philosophy at the University of St Andrews and author of Hopeful Pessimism.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's newest podcast series, Friday Focus. This Friday, join former hostage Keith Siegel and host Jessica Steinberg for a deep dive into what life is like for Siegel, five months after his release home from captivity in Gaza. Siegel discusses his need to do everything he can for the remaining hostages, including those with whom he was held hostage during periods of his 484 days of captivity, and who are still held captive. He speaks about the depraved terror he experienced and witnessed in captivity, the moments of grace, and his hope and optimism that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to the White House will possibly bring the war to an end. Friday Focus can be found on all podcast platforms. This episode was produced by the Pod-Waves.

Frank and Squeaks dive headfirst into James Gunn's Superman, the movie that's recharging DC with new energy and old-school heart. They break down everything—from the pacing that mimics a stack of comics, to character performances, visual highs and lows, and why this might be one of the most human versions of Superman we've ever seen. They also debate Guy Gardner's scene-stealing turn, Lex Luthor's layered villainy, the potential setup for Bizarro, and what it all means for the future of the DC Universe. This one's packed, passionate, and full of geeky joy. Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 Welcome and Opening Thoughts 00:27 Initial Reactions and Hype Level 01:13 Fast Pacing and Comic Book Feel 02:10 James Gunn's Signature Style 03:30 Thoughts on the Plot and Accessibility for New Fans 04:20 Lex Luthor's Role and Future Setup 05:36 All-Star Superman Comparisons 06:00 Kryptonian Parents Twist and Its Impact 08:30 Cancel Culture and Superman's PR Weakness 09:58 Mr. Terrific and the Unexpected Standout 11:00 Guy Gardner's Surprising Depth and Humor 13:15 Hawkgirl and the Performance Letdown 15:00 The New Superman: Human, Hopeful, and Heroic 18:16 Lois Lane's Portrayal and Rachel Brosnahan's Performance 20:00 Daily Planet Crew: A Bit Too Involved? 22:30 Nicholas Hoult's Lex Luthor and the Two-Layered Villain 25:00 Engineer and Ultraman Discussion + Bizarro Theory 29:00 Visual Storytelling and Cinematography Highlights 32:00 CGI Thoughts and Krypto's Role 36:00 Green Lantern Constructs: Unique and Personality-Driven 38:30 Superman's Power Progression and Final Battle 40:30 Tone and Themes: Can This Superman Fit with Batman? 43:00 Final Thoughts on Justice League Potential 44:00 Favorite Scenes and End-Credit Surprises 47:00 Final Scores and Rewatchability 50:00 IMAX Worthy? Our Theatrical Recommendation 51:00 Closing Remarks Key Takeaways: James Gunn's Superman blends nostalgic charm with a modern, fast-paced narrative. David Corenswet's Superman is emotionally grounded and feels deeply human. Lex Luthor, played by Nicholas Hoult, delivers a fresh take that balances public genius with private obsession. Guy Gardner and Mr. Terrific both exceed expectations, with standout scenes that highlight their personalities. The film's pacing mirrors a comic book run—nonstop but rewarding. The twist about Superman's Kryptonian parents adds emotional weight without breaking canon. Visual storytelling uses lighting—especially sunlight—as a powerful symbolic tool. Bizarro may be hinted at for future films, adding another exciting layer. While some characters like Hawkgirl were underwhelming, others like Krypto left a lasting impact. Quotes: “This is the Superman I pretended to be when I was running around the house as a kid.” – Frank “Lex Luthor isn't trying to rule the world—he's just obsessed with stopping Superman.” – Squeaks “It feels like you picked up a stack of DC comics and read them in one sitting.” – Squeaks “David Corenswet might be the most human Superman we've seen on screen.” – Frank Call to Action: Love what you heard?

Send me a Text Message!I'm taking a bit of a break as a reward for 100k downloads and as a pause during my vacation. But during this week+ break, I'm reposting some Psalms that I've chosen, specifically to hit some themes of our current series, "A Life of Prayer." The themes include scripture, prayer, trusting God, and thriving. One thing I love about the writers of the psalms is that they bring their real self to the game. They don't try to hide the pain or the doubt. They don't sanitize the language. They bring their real self. Psalm 5 is a prayer of lament. It's a good Psalm for times when we are scattered and trying to "consider it joy" when the hard stuff comes. 

Every year, a handful of teams have to convince themselves that a certain story they've been telling themselves all offseason will turn out to be true. Their success for the coming season hinges on it. One example for 2025...Ben Johnson is exactly what Caleb Williams needs.

1 Corinthians 11:27–34 (ESV) — 27 Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord. 28 Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself. 30 That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died. 31 But if we judged ourselves truly, we would not be judged. 32 But when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined so thatwe may not be condemned along with the world. 33 So then, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another— 34 if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home—so that when you come together it will not be for judgment. About the other things I will give directions when I come. IN COMMUNION YOU ARE TO EXAMINE, REMEMBER,PROCLAIM AND ANTICIPATE THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST!  THE NECESSITY OF PERSONAL EXAMINATION v27-30 a)    TheUnworthy Manner-      “Now, if we would catch the meaning of this declaration, we must know what it is to eat unworthily. Some restrict it to the Corinthians, and the abuse that had crept in among them, but I am of opinion that Paul here, according to his usual manner, passed on from the particular case to a general statement, or from one instance to an entire class. There was one fault that prevailed among the Corinthians. He takes occasion from this to speak of every kind of faulty administration or reception of the Supper. “God,” says he, “will not allow this sacrament to be profaned without punishing it severely.” John Calvin Commentaries on the Epistles of Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians, vol. 1 pg 385.b)    The Worthy Manner -        (v24)Thanks, (v24-25) Remembrance, (v26) Proclamation and Anticipation (Ephesians 4:1-3)  c)     The General Principles-       (v27-29) Personal Examination (whoever… let a person… himself… then eat and drink…) -        (v27, 29) Guilt that leads to judgement or participation without meditation.

Heidi’s desire is for everyone to understand and experience the love of God, that she encountered in 1993. She is the founder of Hope with Heidi, a ministry to help disciple people to have a revelation of Jesus. Heidi is a recognised speaker and lecturer. She has a BA in Ministry and is the author of One – Complete Intimacy with God. "I pray this message will encourage and inspire you," – Heidi Key Takeaways: Joy, as described in the Bible, is a profound, abiding presence not dependent on external circumstances. Jesus invites us to abide in Him, which allows His joy to remain in us and our joy to be full. The concept of abiding involves daily engagement with God's word and being receptive to His presence. True joy is an inherent gift from Jesus, not something that needs to be manufactured or earned. Remaining in Jesus’ love, especially during trials, anchors the soul to an unmovable foundation. Notable Quotes: "His joy remaining in me, so that my joy may be full." "It's about receiving what only he can give." "These things I've spoken to you, that my joy may remain in you and that your joy may be full." "Joy. True joy lives in us." "In his presence there is fullness of joy."

Focusing on God's promises rather than the 'giants' or problems leads to spiritual strength and clarity. Fear and unbelief can deter us from realizing God's promises; maintaining faith shifts our understanding and acceptance of challenges. Measure life's problems against the vastness of God's power rather than magnifying them beyond His reach. Notable Quotes: "Think about that. They journeyed with the cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night." "Giants shrink when we realize just how big God is." "No challenge is too big for God.

I've been sick for the last two days and so today, we're jumping back in time to an older episode that I never published (oops!) from Rebecca Solnit's book, Hope in the Dark. "We are used to constant flux in the daily details of existence, yet the basic structure of the status quo always looks so unalterable. But it's not. Profound change for the better does occur, even though it can be difficult to see because one of the most common effects of success is to be taken for granted. What looks perfectly ordinary after the fact would often have seemed like a miracle before it.” - Christ BrightBUY THE BOOK: https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/791-hope-in-the-dark READ FROM THE BOOK: https://blogs.helsinki.fi/vallisaari/files/2018/06/Solnit_Hope_in_the_dark.pdfTHE AUTHOR: http://rebeccasolnit.net/THE RESOURCES FROM GW University: https:// onlinepublichealth.gwu.edu/resources/sources-for-climate-news/MORE RESOURCES: 350.org AND https://hiphopcaucus.org/action-center/DONATE:www.pcrf.netGet Involved:Operation Olive Branch: Spreadsheets + LinksGET AN OCCASIONAL PERSONAL EMAIL FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.comTUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM FOR COOL CONTENT: www.instagram.com/mydbpodcastOR BE A REAL GEM + TUNE IN ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/MYDBpodcastOR WATCH ON YOUTUBE: www.youtube.com/juliemerica The opinions expressed by Julie Merica and Make Your Damn Bed Podcast are intended for entertainment purposes only.

So many of us are trying so hard to protect our kids from failure of any kind.Getting it wrong and having regrets is scary! Of course we want to protect our kids from that. But really, when we hover over their homework or swoop in with a plan to fix it when they're struggling, we're protecting ourselves from our anxieties about being a good enough parent.There's kind of no better time to fail than when you're a kid. The stakes are still pretty low. When kids learn how to struggle and get it wrong and fail, it strengthens their ability to move through hard things and builds resilience.To talk more about how we can support our kids through failure, I reached out to Jessica Lahey, who wrote a book that I often refer to in my work called The Gift of Failure. Her book has really shaped the way I view failure and how I encourage others to view failure and Jessica also happens to be the parent of a trans kid, so we'll talk about that experience as well.Check out the full episode to hear about:Why we need to allow kids to get frustrated with tasksWhy adults need to model trying new things and making mistakesHow to give kids opportunities to learn life skills, even when it would be easier for you to just do itHow Jessica's natural openness has been challenged around her much more private daughter's transitionHow Jessica and her family are leaning on their supports and doing work that matters to them in the face of our current climateHow Jessica weighs sharing her pride of her daughter with concerns for her privacy and safetyFind out more about Jessica Lahey:WebsiteNewsletterThe Gift of Failure: How the Best Parents Learn to Let Go So Their Children Can SucceedFind out more about Mackenzie Dunham:Wildheartsociety.orgwildheartsociety.org/downloadsWild Heart Society on FacebookWild Heart Society on InstagramResources:Register for CampDonate to the Queer Community NetworkDifferently Wired: A Parent's Guide to Raising an Atypical Child with Confidence and Hope, Deborah ReberThe Trevor ProjectBe My EyesStand In Pride

In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I'm diving into one of the most important parts of the IVF journey: how to cope with setbacks. IVF can be frustrating, emotional, and downright hard. But it can also be empowering, educational, and full of possibility. I'm walking you through the five most common IVF challenges, and offering tools to help you reframe them so you can move forward feeling hopeful and in control. We'll talk about what happens when your cycle gets delayed, when your follicles don't grow as expected, and what to do when the numbers (eggs, embryos, blastocysts) don't go your way. I'll also share real patient stories and offer perspective on how to stay grounded and supported through every twist in the journey. In this episode, we cover: Why IVF cycles sometimes start with delays, and how to use that time productively What to do if your follicles don't grow or respond to medication as expected How to cope with fewer eggs retrieved or fertilized than hoped What to know if embryo development or testing results don't go as planned How to support your mental health and build a strong emotional foundation Read the full show notes on Dr. Aimee's website Do you want to learn more about IVF? Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.

I bounced around from English to Criminal Justice before finally asking a counselor: “What's the fastest way out of here?” The truth? I just needed a roadmap. That same lack of clarity is something many creatives face in the online space.

Student loan defaults are exploding, and when the House of Representatives passed a bill making colleges responsible for student debt, it looked like a breakthrough. But is it really a step toward justice, or just another trap? In this jaw-dropping episode, we uncover the truth: how this new law could slam the doors of higher education on people of color and low-income families, making college even harder to reach for those who need it most.I break down the numbers, expose the hidden motives, and reveal who really wins when colleges own the debt. Is this “solution” actually a setback for educational equity? Tune in for the facts, the fallout, and what you can do next.

This week Fr. Michael talks about the poverty we find ourselves in and how it can be attractive to others. He uses the stories of Photina, St. Moses the Black, and Mary Magdalene to show how each of them embraced some level of poverty, ultimately bringing Jesus to others. References:John 4:1-42Luke 16:9The Reed of God by Caryll HouselanderFr.
