The humble crew of the LIttle Snail could not have known what they were getting into. A simple, kindness had led them towards danger and mystery unknwon. A fallen tower. Undead dragon cultists descending on them in the dark. An ancient prophecy written by the light. And a sanctimonious solivagant stolen into shadow Yet faced with this chaos, they continued. Making their way north, first to the bridge they'd rebuilt only days ago and then turning towards the seaside city of Calstega Bay in search fo answers. All around them, Perpetua awed with its beauty. The sea breeze sweeping across Tidaline's plains. Life all around them, blossoming and chirping. And the daytime sky giving way to the stars. And so they were on the cusp of unexpected discovery: Because though they did not know yet, what we do about the Stars, they would soon find out just how they echo…. Redolencia. Alteros. Ichoria. Springsong. Armidirge. Imago. Genesika. KosmoKairosis. It would be the first of these—Redolencia, announcing itself with buzzes and yelps—that they would encounter on that journey to Calstega Bay. On its face, it may have seemed like a distraction from their primary task—but in truth, it was their first glimpse into a world beyond—or a world before—the Perpetua they knew. A lesson here, for those who study their journey: It is only a fool that sticks to the charted course. One never knows when a hill is worth the climb, a dance is worth a stumble, or a rose is worth its thorns. This week on Perpetua: Journey to the Bay Pt. 1 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.03] Celestial Echoes [CECH] So far, Celestial Echoes seems like they're a series of side quests, but I have a feeling they're actually really important—like either late in the campaign you'll have to go around to do all of them or else maybe the true ending is locked behind doing them? In any case, they come in two versions: Unstable and Stable. Both are a part of the map affected by “Celestial Laws,” which change some basic gameplay rules in BIG ways. What separates them, then? Well, Unstable Echoes are normally mini-dungeons or miniboss fights, while Stable Echoes (which you can make by completing the “Ritual of Stellar Restoration” in an Unstable Echo), tend to just be lore-focused map locations. Both offer a lot of unique loot, plus unique music and character interactions! Oh, also, supposedly if you don't do the ritual, Unstable Echoes can “spread” across more of the map, but I haven't tried to let that happen during this first playthrough (obviously). While I'm including the basic stat blocks for all the Celestial Echo enemies, NPCs, and bosses in the NPC & Monsters section (search for PNMS but with brackets around it!), I'm keeping their longer entries here because I think most people will turn here to learn about the Echoes! Redolencia [CERD] Redolencia is probably the first celestial echo you'll find (though you could go around it and reach Capstone from the Prelude if you were willing to grind a little). As such, it's got a mix of combat (a pretty cool boss fight) and dungeon/puzzle gameplay. And its Celestial Laws are pretty basic. It's sort of like playing a game with wayyy less focus on spells. The level and enemy design here is so weird It's like someone swapped the game palette with a sicker one. All the colors are like *too* colorful, but also too dim? I don't know anything about art, I just know it feels weird. And the music is SO intense given that it's just a bunch of flowers and bugs. Anyway, here's what you've got in store: Celestial Law: Alchemical Tilt: Spells heal half damage. Skills and Items heal twice as much. Celestial Law: Unstable Magic: When casting a spell, you fumble when 1s or 2s are rolled as a pair (i.e. rolls of 2 or 4, but not 1+2 or 2+1) Scalewings [NMSCW] Typical Traits: fluttering, territorial, lover of beauty, scientific Stats: DEX 10, INS 8, MIG 8, WLP 6 Attacks: Beetlehorn Spear Special Abilities: Scale Shower, Flying In-Game Description: An echo of a butterfly-like person, attendant to the Vampire Orchid. Flutters like a stuttering shadow. They're more like colorful moths than butterflies, in this FAQ-writer's opinion. They have big gross wings, and can spread poison with their Scale Shower ability. I'd love to know what the rest of their world was like, given that they use a huge beetle horn as a spear! Do you think the whole world was smaller or that everything small on it was bigger? Did humans even exist there? Starter Tip: Simple! Use fire! Vampire Orchid [NMVOR] Typical Traits: Rapacious, Hungry, Gorgeous, Fragrant Stats: DEX 8, INS 6, MIG 10, WLP 8 Attacks: Vine Drain, Pollen Dusting Special Abilities: Plant: The Vampire Orchid is immune to dazed, enraged, and shaken. In-Game Description: Tendrils of green, petals of black and yellow, and a column of deep red. Though one might wonder where the latter color comes from. A giant hungry plant—where have I seen that one before! On one hand, its weakness to both ice and fire means that your party should be able to do great damage to it! On the other hand, the Celestial Echo that increases the chance of spellcasting fumbles means that it's easier to have things go totally off the rails all at once. Starter Tip: Remember: Elemental Shards don't require any sort of spell casting roll! A cheap way to get a TON of damage during this fight.

After a botchy IG Live when I couldn't SEE Esin, this was delicious to LOOK into her beautiful eyes and connect heart to heart. Erin is a Holistic Psychologist, LCSW, Addiction Professional, and Relationship Expert. We dove right into our shared experiences of Female Friendship & Betrayal. While many think breaking up with a boyfriend or husband is intense… we both agreed that the heartbreak of female friendship betrayals and the pain of sisterhood ruptures can be even more intense… perhaps because you don't see them coming. We both opened up about how early family roles and codependent tendencies and how that has shaped our adult relationships, and how needing constant reassurance or connection with others can lead to losing a sense of self. It was so nourishing to connect with Esin about the complexities of therapeutic relationships, how deeply intimate and soul-connected they can become, and the struggle to maintain healthy boundaries without losing authenticity or care. We both have historically over-given to clients at the cost of our own well-being. I shared how my mentors have taught me self-first care vs. selfless care, and how time off and new practices like a month's sabbatical in Spain, flamenco dancing is helping me reclaim joy and balance. As two single women, we highlighted the importance of building friendships and romantic relationships outside of work and stop over-relying on our careers for fulfillment. We lovingly challenged each other to actively create more space for personal relationships and fun. I shared a playfully structured approach with ways I'm reparenting my inner self—including having “dinner” with her inner masculine and feminine, and putting a cardboard Jason Mamoa in my home to prompt sensual self-practices! (Decided on the poster, not the full-size cardboard after all xox) Our conversation was deeply personal, with both of us modeling vulnerability, acknowledging our wounds, and laughing through the shared journey of learning to love and care for ourselves more fully. Some bumper sticker takeaways include..."If I avoid love, I avoid pain. But if I avoid pain, I also avoid love.” "We don't want to dismantle codependency in a way where we demonize it—we just want to harness it differently.” "The source of my wholeness needs to come from inside-out, not outside-in." This episode is a beautiful, raw, and deeply human exploration of the messy, courageous journey of reclaiming self-worth, intimacy, and joy—especially for those, like Esin and I, who help others for a living. It's a reminder that even the most evolved coaches and therapists are still growing, too. ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content!

Imago righteousness? Joy? Peace? How Through Gods Word gives us strength to use actions of these intangible verbs. Imagine your acts of them.
En un mundo polarizado y extremista, es fácil sentirse atrapado en el medio de guerras, elecciones judiciales, redadas migratorias... y muchos eventos que sentimos nos atrapan a la mitad. Por lo que, en esta mitad del año, analizaremos si en estas tensiones estamos usando los símbolos a conciencia o cayendo en su fetichismo. Un episodio muy interesante en el que sabrás que en imagen pública las cosas son lo que nos representan, haciendo un viaje fascinante a través de las secciones de IMAGO, el podcast de imagen pública.
Imago Relationship Theory claims we all have a mental "dating app" in our subconscious where the algorithm is secretly set to "parental lookalike mode."Essentially, we swipe right on people who remind us of our parents—because why not add a sprinkle of childhood trauma to the romance cocktail, right? Shan Marchant is a couples therapist and relationship expert, who you might recognise from the BBC's Point of View, or her writing for Metro.She uses Imago Relationship Therapy, after witnessing its ability to repair and revive her own 13+ year relationship. During our conversation we delve into why we often choose partners who resemble one or both of our parents as these familiar traits spark chemistry, but the twist is that we're not just looking for love; we're signing up for a self-improvement bootcamp. According to Harville Hendrix and his partner Helen, who invented Imago, relationships are less about happily-ever-after and more about healing those childhood wounds. So, if your partner seems oddly familiar, congratulations—you've matched with your Imago!

¿Cuándo una acción se percibe como oportunidad y cuándo como descaradamente oportunista? En esta edición de IMAGO exploramos esa delgada línea entre aprovechar el momento y forzar la presencia.Con tantos ejemplos de cosas que pasaron este mes, analizamos cómo la intersubjetividad nos ayuda a definir si una acción fortalece tu imagen o la revienta.Además, con hechos históricos aprenderemos cómo las mejores estrategias de imagen pública son las que aportan valor…y no protagonismo.Todo esto aunado a las ya conocidas secciones de Imago, por lo que... ¡Aprovecha la oportunidad!
BNR Beurs is een beetje een sportprogramma geworden. We doen namelijk verslag van alle transfers. Daar kwam geen einde aan. De belangrijkste is die van Christine Lagarde. Zij zou de gedoodverfde opvolger van Klaus Schwab zijn als baas van het World Economic Forum. Maar daarvoor moet ze wel eerst haar positie als voorzitter van de ECB opgeven. Dat zou niet gebeuren, werd al gezegd. Maar volgens Schwab zelf zijn er toch al gesprekken geweest met haar. Er is zelfs al een woning voor haar geregeld in Zwitserland. Kan de ECB zich maar beter klaarmaken voor de zoektocht naar een opvolger? En wat betekent het voor het beleid van de centrale bank? Die vragen beantwoorden we deze uitzending. Dan hebben we het ook over de andere centrale bankier die opvolging zoekt. Hier in Nederland zelfs. Klaas Knot heeft namelijk nog maar een maand te gaan voor zijn termijn afloopt en hij moet stoppen als baas van De Nederlandsche Bank. Maar het blijkt behoorlijk lastig om vervanging te vinden. En dat leidt tot zorgen bij DNB en in de financiële sector. Verder zijn er nog een hoop andere transfers die wél al zeker zijn. Ook daar brengen we verslag over uit. En we brengen goed nieuws! Want sommige analisten durven eindelijk weer positief naar de toekomst te kijken. De grootste onrust op de beurzen is verleden tijd, zeggen ze. En het ene na het andere bedrijf besluit opeens groots in Bitcoin te investeren. Het mediabedrijf van Trump ging al om, en nu wil ook gamewinkel GameStop opeens honderden miljoenen erin steken. Die bedrijven hebben een loophole gevonden waarmee ze praktisch geld kunnen printen. Maar is dat misschien toch te mooi om waar te zijn?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Another glamorous Cannes Film Festival has ended, after an exciting fortnight on the Côte d'Azur that drew the likes of Tom Cruise, Jennifer Lawrence, Emma Stone, Scarlett Johansson, Robert Pattinson, Denzel Washington, Paul Mescal, Kristen Stewart, and many others. Stars of documentaries also turned up: Shia LaBeouf, whose exploits as founder of a free theater company in L.A. are chronicled in Slauson Rec, and Julian Assange, focus of the documentary The Six Billion Dollar Man. The latter film, directed by Eugene Jarecki, won a Special Jury Prize marking the 10th anniversary of the L'Oeil d'or award, which goes to the top documentary at Cannes. Imago, directed by Chechen filmmaker Déni Oumar Pitsaev, took the 2025 L'Oeil d'or prize. For the first time, Deadline's Doc Talk podcast traveled to Cannes to record interviews and to moderate a panel at the American Pavilion. Today's episode of the show is built around our AmPav discussion on the state of the documentary industry which featured panelists Vanessa Hope (director of Invisible Nation); Joe Tufano, VP of Distribution at Submarine Entertainment, and Catherine Quantschnigg, Producer, Sales at Noah Media Group. Tufano explains how documentary filmmakers are increasingly moving to a territory-by-territory approach to sell their features in the absence of acquisitions for worldwide distribution. Hope tells us why she considered going the self-distribution route in the U.S. for her award-winning film that explores Taiwan as it contends with almost daily threats from mainland China. And Quantschnigg reveals how the distribution landscape has changed dramatically in only a few years since Netflix acquired Noah Media Group's acclaimed film 14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible. That's on the latest edition of the Doc Talk podcast, hosted by Oscar winner John Ridley (12 Years a Slave, Shirley) and Matt Carey, Deadline's documentary editor. The pod is a production of Deadline and Ridley's Nō Studios. Listen to the episode above or on major podcast platforms including Spotify, iHeart and Apple. Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome back to our coverage of the 78th Cannes Film Festival episode three!This is the first time that we have had the chance to sit down with a director at Cannes. The film, Imago, featured in the Semaine de la Critique side section and picked up two prizes this past week: The French Touch and the Golden Eye.We talk to director Déni Oumar Pitsaev about some of the themes in this highly personal hybrid documentary film about the filmmaker's empathetic exploration and confrontation with a foreign yet familial place where culture, tradition, and displacement disparity between the symbolic and semantic: 'home' and 'house'; representing a universal entanglement with one's roots.Thanks for listening!If you have any comments, suggestions, or want to get in touch: cannesversations@proton.meCredits:Image: Imago Film StillOfficiel du 78e Festival de Cannes : © Les Films 13 – Un homme et une femme de Claude Lelouch (1966) / Création graphique © Hartland VillaFrame by Kumiko Shimuzu - Free to use under the Unsplash LicenseSound:Intro: EFF Open Audio License for Le Carnaval des Animaux (Saint-Saëns, Camille - Aquarium) by Neal O'Doan (Piano) Nancy O'Doan (Piano), and Seattle Youth Orchestra Pandora Records/Al Goldstein Archive.Extro: Quinzaine des Cineastes Intro Extract Music: Cyril Moisson | Piano: Frédéric Fortuny
La 78ᵉ édition du Festival de Cannes s'achève ce soir. Le jury présidé par l'actrice Juliette Binoche va se retirer dans une villa pour discuter des prix qui seront remis en fin de journée. Cette année, aucun film n'est franchement donné favori, même si certains titres reviennent souvent dans les conversations. Certains ont déjà été récompensés par des prix en marge du festival. Certains prix gravitent en périphérie du festival de Cannes, mais font parler d'eux. Depuis quinze ans, la Queer Palm, qui récompense un film abordant des thématiques LGBTQIA+, comme des personnages trans, des questionnements de genre ou des relations homosexuelles. En attendant, peut-être, une place au palmarès ce soir, La petite dernière d'Hafsia Herzi, le récit d'initiation d'une jeune femme lesbienne ET musulmane, remporte la Queer Palm.Autre prix déjà décerné, l'Œil d'or du meilleur documentaire attribué à Imago, premier film tchétchène projeté à la Semaine de la critique. Le réalisateur Déni Oumar Pitsaev livre un film très personnel, en retournant voir sa famille réfugiée en Géorgie. Mais, lui qui a connu la guerre enfant, a une pensée pour tous ceux qui souffrent dans des conflits : « Il y a des gens en ce moment, que ce soit en Ukraine, au Soudan, à Gaza, qui n'ont pas cette chance. J'ai fait ce film pour l'enfant que j'étais, j'avais huit ans, je n'avais pas d'adulte à côté de moi pour me soutenir. Il y a d'autres enfants qui grandissent en ce moment et qui n'auront pas de chance de grandir, comme moi. Toutes les douleurs sont également importantes, et toutes les vies valent, qu'elles soient palestiniennes, tchétchènes ou israéliennes. »À Cannes, les animaux sont aussi à la fêteLe Grand Prix de la Palm dog 2025 récompense, à titre posthume, Pipa, du film Sirat projeté en compétition, à qui sa partenaire, humaine, Jade Oukid, rend hommage.Sirat, de l'Espagnol Oliver Laxe, figure parmi les films les plus cités par les critiques comme devant figurer au palmarès. Au moins autant qu'Un simple accident de Jafar Panahi ou Sentimental value de Joachim Trier.Le jury présidé par Juliette Binoche va délibérer toute la journée de samedi. Le Congolais Dieudo Hamadi a aimé cette expérience inédite : « Je viens parfois sans savoir ce que je vais regarder, sans connaître le nom du réalisateur ou de l'équipe et même parfois les titres. Ce qui me passionne, c'est d'arriver sans a priori et d'être embarqué dans une histoire que je n'attendais pas. Traverser, comprendre, ressentir, ça fait partie des privilèges des jurés. »Verdict ce soir et un palmarès à suivre sur RFI à 18 h temps universelÀ lire aussiFestival de Cannes 2025: les films en compétition

Vater remix: Quod Imago Pater Cum Dominum by Randal Collier-Ford is a masterpiece of dark movie and ambient music. Its depth and atmosphere moved me so deeply that I created two remixes in tribute. This is the Vater Remix - a more dynamic rhythm while maintaining the dark roots. The Mutter Remix explores a deeper journey descent into shadow, with a slow, heavy pulse that expands on the original's ominous tone. Massive thanks to Randal Collier-Ford for the powerful original track and for granting permission to release these remixes. Check out his work, it's a must listen if you like dark music.

When we open our relationships, we often focus on creating boundaries and agreements around emotions, time, and sex. But there's another crucial element that frequently gets overlooked (until it becomes a problem): money. How we handle finances in our relationships can reveal deep-seated values, trigger old wounds, and create unexpected power dynamics—especially when we start dating outside our established partnerships.The financial aspects of non-monogamy touch on some of our most vulnerable places. They can bring up childhood patterns, highlight privilege differences, and force us to examine our relationship with capitalism itself. While these conversations might feel uncomfortable, they're essential for building healthy relationships with clear expectations and boundaries. Money conversations in non-monogamy can be terrifying—but avoiding them is worse!In this episode, we talk about:— Why money conversations are often avoided until they become painful problems— How our personal money histories shape our approach to finances in relationships (including childhood experiences with scarcity or abundance)— The practical questions that arise when dating: What counts as a "date expense"? Who pays? How do we handle financial disparities?— Why separate accounts can be helpful for financial differentiation in non-monogamy— The challenge of funding separate accounts when income disparities exist between partners— How dating expenses can reveal our values and trigger judgments about what's "worth" spending on— The way money intersects with other resources like time, emotional labor, and childcare responsibilities— Why regular money check-ins are crucial as relationships evolve and circumstances change— How money conversations can actually build intimacy when approached with curiosity and compassion— The importance of allowing partners to change over time and not assuming their financial values remain static— Why examining privilege and socioeconomic differences can be both challenging and a way to deeply connectResources mentioned in this episode:— Imago dialogue as a tool for difficult conversationsJOIN The Year Of Opening® community for a full year of learning & support.

Emma McMillan searches for the pulsing vitality of life through non-human figurative paintings. Drawing, collage, macroscopic photography, and archival research are avenues for abstraction of the animal form.

Mary Kay Cuccaro shares how Imago therapy helps transform relationship conflicts into opportunities for healing childhood wounds through a structured dialogue process that fosters safety, understanding, and deep connection. • Imago theory suggests we're unconsciously attracted to partners who possess both positive and negative traits of our childhood caretakers• Relationships typically move from a romantic stage (lasting about two years) to a power struggle phase where childhood wounds emerge• 50% of married couples divorce during the power struggle phase after about six years of conflict• The Intentional Dialogue process involves mirroring (reflecting what was said), validating (acknowledging the other's perspective makes sense), and empathizing• Surface conflicts often mask deeper childhood wounds, as illustrated by a couple fighting about a dog that actually connected to grief over a mother's death• Sitting 18 inches apart with eye contact calms the limbic brain and activates the cortex, creating a neurobiological state conducive to problem-solving• People typically respond to conflict by either "hyper-arousing" (getting louder/more expressive) or "hypo-arousing" (withdrawing/shutting down)• Three key elements for a stronger marriage connection: touch/physical affection, safe/respectful communication, and shared activities• Focus on the dynamic in the space between you rather than blaming your partner• Simple eye gazing for a few minutes can rebuild connection when words have become triggeringVisit our site for FREE relationship resources and regular giveaways: Strongermarriage.org Podcast.stongermarriage.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/strongermarriage/ Facebook Marriage Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/770019130329579 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/strongermarriagelife/ Dr. Dave Schramm: http://drdaveschramm.com http://drdavespeaks.com Dr. Liz Hale: http://www.drlizhale.com

Er heerst paniek op de beurs. Niks lijkt president Donald Trump meer te kunnen stoppen. In de aanloop naar wat hij 'Liberation Day' noemt blijft hij alleen maar wilder om zich heen slaan. Eerst was het nog een beperkt aantal landen dat te maken zou krijgen met zijn wederkerige importheffingen. Alleen de grootste uitbuiters van de Amerikaanse economie zou eraan moeten geloven. Maar nu belooft Trump iedereen ermee te bestoken. Paniek is er ook bij analisten. Goldman Sachs bijvoorbeeld. De zakenbank verlaagt voor de tweede keer dit jaar het koersdoel voor de S&P 500. En het verhoogt juist de kans op een recessie. Of die Trump-cessie er komt en hoe erg wij de sjaak zijn, dat vertellen we je in deze aflevering. En dan hoor je ook de reactie van de ECB. Voorzitter Christine Lagarde wil in de toekomst zo min mogelijk te maken hebben met de uithalen van Trump en pleit daarom voor economische onafhankelijkheid. Je hoort wat daar voor nodig is. En we hebben het nog over ING. De bank zou een overname op het oog hebben in Italië. Daar staat de Banca Popolare di Sondrio in de verkoop. En volgens Italiaanse media overweegt ING om erop in te gaan.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Empowered Relationship Podcast: Your Relationship Resource And Guide
About this Episode Every relationship experiences moments of disconnection. These instances, often referred to as ruptures, can feel alarming, especially when they seem to happen all too frequently. But what if conflict wasn't something to dread but rather an opportunity for growth and deeper connection? The problem many face is not the rupture itself but the lack of repair. Learning how to artfully navigate these reparative processes can transform conflicts from mounting resentment to meaningful growth. Are you ready to redefine how you view and handle conflicts in your relationships? In this episode, we delve into the heart of using a trauma-informed approach to repair relationships. Through a blend of therapeutic insights and practical techniques, the conversation sheds light on the dynamics of conflict and the importance of repair to foster genuine connection and intimacy. By tapping into our own inner resources and acknowledging our shared vulnerabilities, listeners can learn to transform challenges into powerful moments of healing, growth, and reconnection.

Through an integrative experiential approach, she helps individuals and couples suffering from anxiety, depression, addiction, codependency, trauma, and relational attachment issues to navigate life's challenges so they can become fully alive, supported, and whole.

"So give back to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's." - Matthew 22:21This statement from Jesus is one of the most profound and thought-provoking verses in the New Testament. While it is often quoted in discussions about paying taxes, it carries far deeper implications. What does this passage truly mean for us as Christ-followers today? Let's explore its historical context and the spiritual truths that challenge us to live with a kingdom perspective.The Trap Set for JesusThe words of Jesus in Matthew 22:21 came during a tense confrontation between Him and the Pharisees. They sought to trap Him with a politically charged question:"Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"At that time, Israel was under Roman rule, and paying taxes to the emperor was a sore subject among the Jewish people. Saying “yes” would alienate Him from His Jewish followers, who resented Roman oppression. Saying “no” would paint Him as a revolutionary in the eyes of the Roman authorities.But instead of falling into their trap, Jesus turned the question back on them. He asked for a denarius—a Roman coin bearing Caesar's image—and posed a question of His own:"Whose likeness and inscription is this?"When they answered, “Caesar's,” Jesus delivered His famous response:"Give back to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's."On a surface level, Jesus affirmed that people should fulfill their civic duties, including paying taxes. The coin bore Caesar's image, signifying that it belonged to the government. By saying, “Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's,” Jesus acknowledged the legitimacy of human authority.This teaching aligns with what the Apostle Paul later wrote in Romans 13:1-7, where he urged believers to submit to governing authorities, recognizing them as instruments of God's order. Paying taxes, respecting laws, and contributing to society are responsibilities of every Christian.Yet, Jesus did not stop with Caesar—He introduced a deeper spiritual truth.What Belongs to God?Jesus followed His statement: "Render unto God what is God's.” This raises an important question: What belongs to God?To answer this, we must look at Genesis 1:27, which tells us that humanity is made in the image of God (Imago Dei). Just as the denarius bore Caesar's image and belonged to him, we bear God's image—meaning our entire lives belong to Him.This truth calls us to complete surrender. While we owe taxes, respect, and obedience to earthly authorities, our ultimate allegiance is to God. He doesn't just claim a portion of our income—He claims our hearts, minds, souls, and strength.Many people compartmentalize their lives, separating the "secular" from the "sacred." Work, finances, and citizenship belong to the earthly realm, while prayer, worship, and church belong to God. But Jesus' teaching destroys this false divide.If everything belongs to God, then every aspect of our lives—including our work, relationships, finances, and civic responsibilities—should be offered to Him as an act of worship.By pointing to the coin's image, Jesus subtly challenges us:Whose image do we bear? To whom do we belong? Where does our primary allegiance lie?This is not just a lesson about paying taxes—it's about our identity and purpose in God's kingdom.Jesus' words also highlight the temporary nature of earthly governments compared to God's eternal reign. Rome's empire, like every human government, would eventually fall. But God's kingdom is everlasting.This is why Scripture reminds us:"Our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ." - Philippians 3:20"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth...but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven." - Matthew 6:19-20While we must live responsibly within earthly systems, we do so with the understanding that our true home is in God's unshakable kingdom.Faithful Stewards in Both Realms"Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's" is a call to faithful stewardship both in earthly and heavenly matters. As followers of Christ, we are called to:Honor our civic responsibilities (pay taxes, obey laws, engage in society). Live with eternity in mind (prioritizing God's kingdom above all else). Offer our whole lives to God (because we bear His image and belong to Him).As 1 Peter 2:9 reminds us, we are "a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession." This identity should shape every decision we make, including how we manage our finances, serve others, and navigate our role in the world.Ultimately, Jesus' response was not just a clever answer to a political trap but a profound statement of divine truth.While we live in this world, we are not of it (John 17:16). Our ultimate purpose is not to accumulate wealth, power, or influence in earthly systems but to live in a way that reflects God's glory.So, as you navigate financial decisions, work responsibilities, and civic duties, ask yourself:Am I honoring God with everything I have? Am I living as a faithful steward of both my earthly and heavenly citizenship? Am I prioritizing the eternal over the temporary?By faithfully rendering what is due to Caesar and God, we live as true citizens of heaven, bearing witness to His sovereignty and grace in a world that desperately needs Him.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm on a limited budget, paying for school, and my husband covers more of the bills. We've been asked to give small gifts at work, like $10 for the boss, and contribute to other occasions. But these little gifts have added up, and I've spent over $200 in the last month. I don't have the budget for this. Is it wrong or unchristian of me not to want to give? Should I have a different mindset or tell my co-workers I don't have the budget for this?I'm 57, and my wife and I are debt-free. We want to start a business together, but I'm unsure if it's too risky at my age. Am I ever too old to start a new venture? What process should I consider, and should I set it up as an LLC or sole proprietorship?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly PublicationLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

In Genesis 1, God had created everything so good. But in verse 26, God said, "It is not good for man to be alone!" No bueno! Adam is in a perfect relationship with God, and it still isn't good. Pastor Mike Patz begins a three-part series, Love Lies and Redemption, the lies that we believe about relationships, and the truth that sets us free. Today we are tackling the lie that I'm good by myself. I can do it alone! These days people are increasingly lonely. Surface level relationships are not working. Our anxiety, our addictions, and our sins cannot be healed alone. We're told there is a God-shaped void inside every man; yet according to God, there is a human shaped void that only people can fill. You'll never be fully you until you're part of a godly community. When you're in life-giving community, you're going to thrive! God is not a me; He is an us, the perfect Trinity.

Hey everybody! Episode 145 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Michal Scheffler. Michal was introduced to me by our mutual friend Marta (who I interviewed in episode 16). Michal has led a very fascinating and full life. He was a DJ for many years and holds two degrees in psychology. His interest in consciousness led him to Latin America and ayahuasca where he spent time with different indigenous groups such as the Huni Kuin, Yawanawa, Shuar, as well as the Santo Daime church. We spoke about this journey and then what led him to other teachers such as the Colombian taitas, Andean traditions, and the Tubu nation of the Colombian Amazon. We spoke about the power of the word, storytelling, his journey into fatherhood, his involvement in the Imago community, and a lot more. I think Michal's wisdom is very apparent and it comes through his word and presence. I was really happy to sit down and speak with Michal and hear his wisdom and I trust you all will gain much from him as well. Also if you wait until the end, Michal sings one of his songs that came to him when calling in his son, on the Andean-Amazonian story of Origin. As always, to support this podcast, get early access to shows, bonus material, and Q&As, check out my Patreon page below. Enjoy!“Michal Scheffler (Sanken Koshi) is the founder and leader of IMAGO Community, a spiritual organization formally established in Brazil and USA, yet present across the Americas.IMAGO stewards an altar that bridges the ancestral tools and wisdom of the Amazon and Andes into the new time.While spending the last 11 years immersed in studying indigenous wisdom traditions, passing through a wide variety of diets and initiations led by the teachers of the jungle and the mountains, he predominantly trained in Brazil and Colombia. The core of his offering is expressed through the weaving of the traditional chants of the Yawanawa nation with the ritual based on the geometry of word, song, story and dance.While being guided by the teachings of the Law of Origin, Sanken Koshi has also walked a more formal path of university study. He carries two degrees in psychology and specializes in community building. He has observed that cultivating supportive community provides the integrity to create lasting shifts and benefit the individual process.Fascinated by the reprogramming of consciousness, he adds a subtle academic approach to support the evolution and long-term benefits of the individuals and the collective.”To learn more about or contact Michal, visit his website at: https://www.imagocommunity.org/To view the recent documentary, Sacred Tobacco, about my work, visit: https://youtu.be/KB0JEQALI_wIf you enjoy the show, it's a big help if you can share it via social media or word of mouth.
