“Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.” – James 1:27 (ESV) You've probably heard this verse if you've ever been to an adoption or foster care training, attended a conference that discussed child welfare, or even just sat through your fair share of sermons. The message of this verse couldn't be clearer: God cares deeply about the most vulnerable, and we should too! My guests for this conversation know all about this calling and are here to talk about what it can look like in practice. David and Julie Zimmer have been married for 15 years and are parents to four children together—three by birth and one through foster care. David is the Head of Production and Promotion at Sovereign Grace Music in Louisville, KY. Julie volunteers at BSide U 4 Life, a local pregnancy care center in downtown Louisville, where she supports vulnerable families by offering childcare to parents attending GED, parenting, and Bible classes.

In this episode, you'll hear about the emotional challenges that come along with fostering, the importance of investing in your marriage, the necessity of acknowledging our limitations, and much more.

Do you ever feel like everything depends on you? Providing for the family. Holding it all together. Making sure the house doesn't fall apart—figuratively and literally. This mindset can feel noble, but it often leads to stress, anxiety, or pride. In this episode, we unpack Psalm 127 and Hebrews 3 to remind ourselves what it means to let God take the lead. He is the true Builder, and when we try to take that role from Him, we end up carrying a load we were never designed to bear. Through personal stories, biblical reflection, and some real talk around identity and control, we invite you to consider a better way. One marked by prayer, dependence, and freedom that comes from trusting God with both your work and your home. Let the peace of handing over the reigns wash over you this week.   -------------------------------------------------------------------------   Support the show and upgrade your fatherhood swag. Shop Range Leather and get 15% OFF with code MJ15 Grab some fresh beans! https://rangecoffee.com/   Join the Fatherhood Guard as a monthly donor: https://manhoodjourney.org/donate/fatherhood-guard/     Buy Kent's latest book: Don't Bench Yourself on Amazon  Read the new State Of Biblical Fatherhood report here: http://manhoodjourney.org/sobf Find tools to share the report here: https://manhoodjourney.org/sobf-tools   Have a topic you want us to touch on?

Today's episode is a heated discussion between the Eric and his two guests, Slayer and Tyson, about the importance of attention to detail and maintaining high standards in one's work. Eric, clearly frustrated by a crooked registration sticker on his expensive truck, argues that "how you do one thing is how you do everything," emphasizing that even small imperfections reflect a lack of pride and care. Tyson and Slayer share their own experiences with poor workmanship in their respective fields, highlighting the potential for minor oversights to lead to significant problems or even danger. The conversation evolves into a broader discussion about leadership, training employees, and fostering a culture of excellence by inspecting what you expect and providing both positive and constructive feedback. (Corrected version) Key Takeaways: Always strive for excellence and pride in every task, even when no one is observing. Actively inspect what you expect from yourself and your team to maintain high standards. Consistently train and clearly communicate expectations to prevent a decline in quality. When giving feedback, balance praise for good work with constructive criticism for areas needing improvement. Recognize that small details reflect overall commitment and can have significant broader impacts.

Life brings hurts that sometimes seem insurmountable. You know, that pain that can be a hunger for something deep within, a hurt that blinds you or overwhelming grief when you experience loss, even doubt can bring hurt that overwhelms. All this month, Bob Russell, is unpacking the “hope” that Jesus brings “to life” when our hurts seem insurmountable. Bob Russell is a retired senior minister of Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, Kentucky, where he served for 40 years as “Southeast” became one of the largest churches in America. Grief has been defined as the emotion or complex of emotions we experience when we loose anyone or anything we love deeply. Over the past few weeks our church has suffered the loss of several loved ones, including one dear lady who was a member of our small group.In the midst of loss, though, for those who believe in Christ, there is Hope. In today's message: “Hope for the Grieving” Bob explores the comfort we can find in Jesus, and shares how we can be an instrument to bring Hope for the grieving. Here's Bob… To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/326/29

From Clemson's championship steam to Stanford's complete rebuild, we break down the teams at the top and bottom of the conference hierarchy. In this college football podcast episode, we debate whether Clemson is the clear conference favorite and discuss whether Cade Klubnik can take the next step. We examine Miami's Carson Beck experiment and defensive coordinator change, make the case for Pitt as a sleeper contender, and discuss SMU's inevitable step back after their magical 2024 run. Plus, we dive into Louisville's massive roster turnover, Georgia Tech's potential as a dangerous spoiler, and why both programs represent fascinating wild cards.

Today Eric emphasizes the ongoing nature of mastery in various aspects of life, from professional skills like sales to personal hobbies and relationships. He highlights that consistent practice and sustained effort are crucial for developing expertise, drawing parallels to athletic training and musical instrument proficiency. He and his coaching call group discuss how facing challenges, embracing vulnerability, and learning from peers accelerate growth, even when progress isn't linear. Eric advocates for a mindset of continuous improvement and active engagement to achieve and maintain mastery, underscoring that stagnation leads to a decline in skill. Key Takeaways: • Consistent effort and dedicated time are essential for achieving mastery. • Embrace repetition and continuous practice to develop and maintain skills. • Seek out and lean into challenging situations as opportunities for significant growth. • Continuously learn and adapt, understanding that growth may involve plateaus as well as surges. • Train with peers, share vulnerabilities, and embrace constructive criticism to accelerate your learning and mastery.   Resources: Contractor Sales Secrets: ContractorSalesSecrets.com Fitz Fish Ponds: Koi Trips Book A Call With Triplett: Call with Triplett The Pond Digger: https://theponddigger.com/ Atlantic-Oase: https://www.atlantic-oase.com/ Helix Pond Filtration: http://helixpondfiltration.com/ TWT Contractor Circle (Facebook Group): TWT Contractor Circle TWT Contractor Power Circle (Facebook Group): TWT Contractor Power Circle The Pond Digger Instagram: Instagram The Pond Digger Facebook: Facebook Train With Triplett TikTok: TikTok EasyPro Pond Products: https://easypro.com/  Pond Trade Magazine: https://www.pondtrademag.com/ MDM Pumps: https://mdminc.com/sequence/  2025 LCR Summit - Oct. 20-21 Louisville, KY: https://www.lcrmedianetwork.com/  PNW Custom: https://www.pnw-custom.com/

(00:00) Weekend Golf Guys This chapter takes you on a journey through a golf-filled weekend with John Ashton and Jeff Smith. Jeff shares his recent adventures in Arizona, including a stop at the famous corner in Winslow. Meanwhile, I recount an enjoyable day of golf at the prestigious Polo Fields in Louisville with friends and family, where the course's impeccable condition and unique hybrid bluegrass stood out. Despite initial struggles, I embraced a positive mindset and overcame a challenging uphill par-three hole, turning a past nemesis into a conquered course feature. The conversation is lighthearted and full of camaraderie, with reflections on memorable shots and the beauty of the game. (12:25) Mindset of Former Athletes in Golf This chapter explores the unique transition from professional baseball to golf among retired athletes, highlighting the experiences of notable former players like Howard Kendrick, Kyle Lohse, and Mark Mulder. We discuss the surprising challenge many baseball players face when they attempt to teach themselves golf despite having been coached their entire athletic careers. The conversation emphasizes the athletes' independent streak and their reliance on mental strength, honed under the pressures of their previous sport. Through anecdotes, I highlight how these athletes' mental fortitude often translates into their golf game, even if physical skills like short game techniques still need refinement. Additionally, the mindset of performing under pressure is explored, drawing parallels between pitching in a packed stadium and sinking a critical putt. The insights shared offer a glimpse into the mindset of high-level athletes adapting to new sports, showcasing both their physical prowess and psychological resilience. (22:50) Pressure Performance in Short Game This chapter addresses common challenges faced in short game golf, specifically flubbed chip shots near the green. I share a story about a student preparing for a club championship who struggled with touch and feel under pressure. By focusing on hitting the ball harder with higher lofted clubs like sand and lob wedges, and adjusting the ball position forward, we were able to build his confidence. The student found success in competition, achieving six out of six up-and-downs in his first round. We explore techniques to improve chipping under pressure, including using longer swings and engaging the body more to prevent stiffness and tension. These insights offer practical strategies for golfers aiming to enhance their short game performance in competitive settings. (32:48) Improving Short Game Performance This chapter explores the importance of selecting the right club and practicing with purpose to improve your golf game. We share an anecdote about choosing the appropriate wedge for specific shots and how a simple change in club selection can lead to better results on the course. Emphasizing the significance of dedicating time to practice short game skills, we discuss how investing 30 minutes into honing these skills can elevate confidence and expectations, leading to better performance during a round. Drawing parallels to basketball players' pre-game routines, we stress the importance of preparation and realistic expectations in achieving success on the golf course. (36:32) Scoring Well Through Preparation and Contact This chapter explores the parallels between the preparation of professional athletes in other sports and the often overlooked preparation in golf. We highlight how athletes arrive early, practice basic skills, and ensure they're ready to perform at their best, contrasting this with how golfers often rush to the first tee with minimal preparation. We discuss the emotional impact of hitting the ball well in golf, emphasizing the joy of solid contact over precise outcomes. By introducing a strike scale from one to five, we suggest a shift in focus from score alone to the quality of contact, promoting enjoyment and self-assessment. This approach encourages golfers to concentrate on improving their strike and gaining confidence, regardless of the scorecard, thus reshaping how players perceive their performance and overall experience on the course. (42:36) Practice Makes Perfect in Golf This chapter explores the often humorous and sometimes frustrating journey of golfers who may not practice as they should but continue to play the game they love. We reflect on the common tendency to focus on drivers while neglecting wedges and putters, which are crucial for improving performance, given their frequent use on the course. By embracing a playful approach, like scoring on a "suckiness to awesomeness" scale, we aim to bring more fun and enjoyment to the game. I also emphasize the importance of practicing specific skills, such as ups and downs, to truly enhance one's golfing abilities.
