POPULARITY
Are you feeling like the world is breaking faster than you can keep up? You're not alone — and there's a reason for it. In this eye-opening episode of the Somatic Coaching Academy Podcast, hosts Ani Anderson and Brian Trzaskos unpack the rising relevance of the BANI world — a powerful framework that captures the emotional chaos of our current reality: Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible. They explore how BANI evolved from the older VUCA model, why anxiety isn't something to just “reframe,” and how this whole messy, uncertain world might actually be a sign that transformation is happening — in you, your teams, and your leadership. Join us for a grounded, honest, and empowering conversation that will help you make sense of what you're feeling — and how to lead through it with clarity, compassion, and consciousness.Listen to all our episodes here:https://somaticcoachingacademy.com/podcastGet access to our free library of helpful resources:http://www.somaticcoachingacademy.com/library-signup
The Will To Change: Uncovering True Stories of Diversity & Inclusion
Join Jennifer in this thoughtful and eye-opening conversation with author and futurist Jamais Cascio as they explore how to navigate a world defined by chaos, uncertainty, and nonlinearity. Together, they unpack why the old models of resilience no longer serve us, why the moral universe looks more like a squiggle than a straight arc, and how leaders can embrace flexibility, active empathy, and interconnectedness to move forward. With deep insights into the BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible) framework, Jamais offers a powerful reframing of how we make meaning, foster belonging, and lead with intention in times when nothing feels predictable — inviting listeners to dance with complexity instead of resisting it.

Thank you for all of your support. Please let us know what you think about our podcast and what topic you may want to hear from us. Leaders, Lead Well!In a BANI World (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible), why is it critical to realize the human touch in leadership? The reason is that leadership isn't just about strategy and decision-making—it's about inspiring and uplifting others. Great leaders have always known that to unlock unlimited potential, you must engage the human touch.The human touch in leadership is vital because it builds trust, fosters meaningful connections, and inspires people to excel. By demonstrating empathy and authenticity, leaders gain credibility and create a positive workplace culture where individuals feel valued and motivated. This connection drives collaboration, innovation, and resilience, enabling teams to navigate challenges effectively and thrive in supportive environments. Ultimately, great leaders focus not only on strategies but also on uplifting and empowering those they lead.For more than two decades, Thomas Gelmi has been supporting leaders and their teams at different levels and in various industries in their development. As a professional executive coach, facilitator, and sparring partner, he does this in four languages (DE, EN, FR, IT) and across cultures, worldwide.Thomas joins Rich and Maikel to discuss the importance of the Human Touch in Leadership in this episode of Mainline Executive Coaching ACT.

This week Lewis has so much to cover that it's a 2-parter! Our current state of affairs has us all having the collective experience of living what one person's idea of reality is. Whether it be terrible cabinet picks or the mess that mass layoffs are causing, there just doesn't seem to be enough oxygen (or air) in the room, because we only get to breathe the King's oxygen.. While in the past we might've taken ourselves out into the woods and yell at trees at the top of our lungs, it's cold outside so instead Lewis is using the Rantcast as an opportunity to wonder out loud, "what the actual hell is going on?"

The Will To Change: Uncovering True Stories of Diversity & Inclusion
In part two of this special two-part minisode, Jennifer explores the final elements of the BANI framework (Non-linear and Incomprehensible) and their antidotes for navigating our complex world. She delves into how improvisation serves as the essential response to non-linearity, encouraging listeners to practice pivoting rather than clinging to rigid plans in a world where predictability has become obsolete. The episode examines how collective sense-making and inclusivity help us face incomprehensibility, emphasizing that "when the world no longer makes sense, we don't solve it alone." Tune in to hear insights on embracing darkness as fertile ground for wisdom, and what new tools and approaches might be necessary in this era of profound change and uncertainty.

Deut. 29:22–29 Job. 11:7–12 Matt. 16:13–20 Rom. 11:33–36The attribute of God called incomprehensibility is that we cannot know God as He is, but only as He reveals Himself to us. In this message, we learn this doctrine from Scripture, the ways that God reveals Himself, and the reasons why God has revealed Himself—that we would obey, believe in, and enjoy Him forever.

A bumper week on Propaganda as Leeds win, Manchester United Football Club lose and we try understand a new friend from south Wales.
Can our minds ever conceive God fully? How did God choose to make Himself known, and what does His revelation teach us about His heart? What about His attributes? How is His infinite nature revealed in the profound mystery of the Trinity? In this sermon, Pastor answers these questions about this Incomprehensible God we serve. It is our prayer that the eyes of your understanding are enlightened as you listen.
We welcome New Zealand today. Thank you for sharing your culture a bit through "The Broken Wood Murder Mysteries" and introducing me to the Maori people. (Even though I practiced, I misspelled your name.) We end our series on God's attributes and how they fuel our gratitude for His mercies in our community (prayer) with Him. Thank You, Jesus. "When Thou didst say, "Seek My face," my heart said to Thee, "Thy face, O LORD, I shall seek." Psalm 27:8 "As for me, I shall behold Thy face in righteousness; I will be satisfied with Thy likeness when I awake." Psalm 17:15 "Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we shall be. We know that, when He appears, we shall be like Him, because we shall see Him just as He is. 3 And everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure." 1 John 3:2-3 "...and He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there shall no longer be any death; there shall no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away." 5 And He who sits on the throne said, "Behold, I am making all things new." Revelation 21:4-5 "For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I shall know fully just as I also have been fully known. 13 But now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love." 1 Corinthians 13:12-13 Our So What? Because of His mercies, every time I sit down to pray, I get at least a glimpse of sweet fellowship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I get a glimpse of heaven by learning to know Him. Silver and gold have I none, eloquence have I none. What I have, I give to Thee. And that the Holy God of the universe wants you to talk to Him, and you will grow in your relationship with Him. Until you get to the point that your prayer time will be the most precious time of your day. That's my exhortation. Brethren, let's pray for one another.

The Land Down Under, Australia, is our featured nation today; thank you, Aussies. I love your sense of humor and would love to use the words, mate, in a way that sounded natural. I woke up this morning with one thing on my mind, "As Christians, we ought to be stunningly thankful. Here are some of the verses that believers in God should be ridiculously thankful for. We experience the mercies of God, every minute. "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. 29 "Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and YOU SHALL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. 30 "For My yoke is easy, and My load is light." Matthew 11:28-30 "The LORD is compassionate and gracious, Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness. 9 He will not always strive with us; Nor will He keep His anger forever. 10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. 11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His lovingkindness toward those who fear Him. 12 As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us. 13 Just as a father has compassion on his children, So the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him. 14 For He Himself knows our frame; He is mindful that we are but dust." Psalm 103:8-14 Our so what? Because of mercy, we know Death is conquered. We have a new inner person. We have peace with God. We have hope. Our relationships have eternal meaning. Our conduct has eternal meaning. We have eternal life with the God who loves us. Brethren, let's pray for one another.

Elder Rick Tillman
There are times when a person feels like he is being pushed to his limits. He already experienced one difficulty, and then another was added, and then another. He feels like Hashem is picking on him, and he's having a very hard time understanding how Hashem could do this to him, especially since he learned about how much Hashem loves him. We must constantly remind ourselves that the only things that are valuable and eternal in this world is our service of Hashem. Everything else in this world is just a distraction. When someone is able to serve Hashem at a time of extreme difficulty, and continue trusting in Him that He's doing the best for him, that could accomplish what would normally take a person ten lifetimes to accomplish. Let us learn from one example in the Torah. The Zohar Hakadosh tells us there is nothing in the world that has the power to nullify a decree of death, plague, or sickness, like the Parasha of Akedat Yitzchak. Of course, this doesn't just mean reading the words, rather, it's understanding and internalizing them. What was so special about Akedat Yitzchak? Let us analyze for a moment some of the difficulties involved in this great test of Avraham Avinu. He was promised at the age of 70 a child that would take over his legacy and continue his life's mission. He then patiently waited for 30 years to have that child. He then invested all of his time and energy building up the child for 37 years, and then Hashem told him to sacrifice the child as a korban. On the surface level, it seems like a very cruel request, something beyond comprehension, coming from a loving and merciful God. Furthermore, Avraham was being asked to do something that he was preaching his whole life against. He would tell all of the idol worshippers that God didn't want them offering their children as sacrifices. Moreover, Hashem seemed to be contradicting what He already told Avraham, that Yitzchak would be the future of Klal Yisrael. It was such a difficult request that made no sense. Avraham could have had many questions here, yet he chose to trust Hashem and do the command with joy and zeal. The Sefat Emmet gives us a beautiful insight into how Avraham was able to overcome this monumental test. He said Avraham was a navi. He was able to see the future, that Moshe Rabbeinu and all of the greats throughout history were destined to come from Yitzchak. We know that every tzaddik brings so much nachat ruach to Hashem with his Torah and good deeds. With the Akedah, Hashem would be losing out on all of those greats. Hillel Hazaken, Rabbi Akiva, Rabbi Yochanan, Rav and Shmuel, Abaye and Rava, the Rambam, Rashi, the Baal Shem Tov, the Gra, the Chafez Chaim, and so on. It must be that this one act of sacrifice was going to be greater than all the deeds of all of the greats throughout history combined. Avraham contemplated how special this was going to be for Hashem, and that's what gave him the chizuk, to do it with joy. And indeed, we are still benefiting today, thousands of years later from that one act. Avraham heroically passed the test and amazingly did not tell one person afterward what he did. He was purely L'Shem Shamayim. We only know about it because the Torah told us. Hashem put Avraham in the most difficult circumstance and asked him to do the incomprehensible. That is where all of Avraham's glory lies. Similarly, when a person finds himself in a very difficult situation in life, and it keeps getting more and more difficult to the point where he can't comprehend how Hashem could put him in such a situation, and he feels like he wants to turn the other way in anger and frustration, that is when he must give himself chizuk and say, if he is able to overcome this and continue serving Hashem with joy now, that could be more valuable than what he does for his entire life. One deed done under extreme difficulty is worth infinitely greater than deeds done under normal conditions. The greatest chesed that Hashem can give a person is the opportunity to earn an eternity of bliss. We are in this world on a mission, and Hashem who wants us to succeed always puts us in the exact circumstances we need to be in to achieve that success
God transcends our highest thoughts of Him, but that doesn't mean He contradicts logic. Today, R.C. Sproul carefully distinguishes between God's incomprehensibility and the irrational.

Due to their sin, the people's condition was incurable, and their reaction to the LORD's correction was incorrigible, but His grace is incomprehensible.
In this episode of Partnering Leadership, Mahan Tavakoli sits down with David Ross, VUCA strategist and author of Confronting the Storm: Regenerating Leadership and Hope in the Age of Uncertainty. David is a renowned expert on VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) environments and has spent his career advising organizations on how to thrive amidst complexity and disruption. With a background as an ecologist, David brings a unique perspective to leadership—one that emphasizes the interconnectedness of the issues facing businesses and society today. His deep understanding of wicked problems, those challenges with no straightforward solutions, forms the backbone of this engaging conversation.The discussion centers around how leaders must adapt to the rapidly changing business landscape, where traditional approaches no longer work. David argues that the old leadership models—based on control and linear thinking—are ill-suited for the challenges we face today. Instead, he advocates for a more collaborative, emotionally intelligent, and resilient leadership style, one that embraces uncertainty rather than fighting it. He explains how technology, climate change, and societal shifts are creating a world that's more BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, and Incomprehensible), and what leaders need to do to stay ahead.Throughout the episode, David draws on his extensive experience advising CEOs and leadership teams, offering practical insights into how organizations can navigate the unpredictability of today's environment. He also delves into the importance of hope and optimism, even in times of crisis, and how leaders can turn challenges into opportunities for growth and innovation. Actionable Takeaways:You'll learn why traditional leadership models based on control and linear thinking are no longer effective in today's VUCA world—and what you need to replace them with.Hear how embracing uncertainty and fostering resilience can transform how your organization responds to crises and wicked problems.Discover the power of emotional intelligence in leadership and why listening is just as important as speaking in today's collaborative environments.Find out what David means by a BANI world (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, and Incomprehensible) and how leaders can adapt to thrive in these unpredictable times.Explore the importance of hope and optimism in leadership and how turning crises into opportunities is key to long-term success.Understand why future literacy and foresight are critical tools for leaders looking to anticipate change and guide their organizations through complexity.Learn why David believes that normalcy has left the building and how leaders must evolve to lead effectively in this new reality.Hear David's insights on why collaboration—not isolation—is the future of leadership and how diverse perspectives fuel innovation.Gain insight into why scenario planning is a powerful tool for leaders to prepare for multiple futures and make better strategic decisions.Connect with David RossDavid Ross Website Confronting the Storm: Regenerating Leadership and Hope in the Age of UncertaintyDavid Ross LinkedInConnect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website

Mary Danielsen chats with longtime prophecy expert Terry James today. Terry is an author, general editor, and co-author of more than 40 books on Bible prophecy and geopolitics—hundreds of thousands of which have been sold worldwide. He has also written fiction and nonfiction books on a number of other topics. Titles include The Disappearing: Future Events That Will Rock the World and Lawless: End Times War Against the Spirit of Antichrist. He is also the co-founder of Rapture Ready, a highly popular news and commentary site for those looking for the blessed hope. Today we talk about our God Who is outside of time and is the only God worthy of praise as He is omnipotent and omniscient in all things, particularly the past, present, and future! We also look at lawlessness and why it is greatly increasing, and the how the media feeds into it. Terry's Amazon page can be found here.

Two trials, an impaired judge, and a ruling that shocked everyone. George Thomas and Vanessa Coleman were both tried for their roles in the murders. As Judge Richard Baumgartner struggled to read the verdict, many questioned whether the judge was impaired.
