Feeling disconnected in your church despite being surrounded by people? You're not alone. In this episode of Marked by Grace, Heath Lambert addresses one of the most common struggles in modern church life - cultivating authentic community instead of settling for surface-level acquaintances. Discover the biblical "one another" principle that transforms shallow relationships into deep, meaningful community. Learn why taking personal responsibility for relationships is the key to experiencing the authentic connection you're longing for.Timestamps0:00 - Introduction: Authentic community in a big church0:39 - The question: How to cultivate true community vs. acquaintances1:27 - Why this applies to churches of all sizes1:50 - Institutional vs. personal approaches to relationships2:56 - Galatians 6:2 - "Bear one another's burdens"3:16 - The "one another" passages in the New Testament4:20 - The merry-go-round analogy for biblical relationships5:53 - Why authentic relationships require trading places6:23 - The selfish approach to relationships (and why it fails)7:35 - Taking personal responsibility for relational investment8:16 - You don't need permission to serve others9:04 - Practical steps: listening, serving, investing in people9:32 - The principle: Those who invest most receive the greatest return10:20 - Personal example: Medical troubles revealing relational investmentKey PointsThe "One Another" Principle: The New Testament contains dozens of "one another" commands - bear, love, serve, teach, encourage one another. These form the foundation of authentic Christian community.The Merry-Go-Round Model: Healthy relationships require people to "trade places" - sometimes you're the one being served (sitting on the merry-go-round), sometimes you're the one serving (pushing the merry-go-round).Common Relationship Problem: Often people who complain about lack of community are being selfish - waiting for others to invest in them instead of taking initiative to invest in others.Personal Responsibility: You don't need permission to take relational responsibility. You can start serving, encouraging, and investing in others immediately.The Investment Principle: Those who make the biggest relational investments typically receive the greatest return - but this shouldn't be the motivation for serving.Practical Action Steps: Start listening to others, serve people's needs, and make genuine investments in their lives rather than waiting for others to initiate.Long-term Perspective: When you consistently invest in others, you build a community that will support you when you need it most.Scripture ReferencesGalatians 6:2 - "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." - The foundation for authentic communityVarious "One Another" Passages - Throughout the New Testament, believers are commanded to love one another, serve one another, teach one another, encourage one another, and bear with one another.Have a question you'd like answered?

Global upstream oil and gas spending is expected to hit $543 billion this year, a 1.1% decrease from 2024, with reduced capital allocation across all regions except the Middle East. Capital spending in the US shale sector experienced a 3.2% drop in 2024, with forecasts indicating a further 1.9% decline in 2025, despite rising costs from tariffs on steel and other product. Despite conservative capital plans, US oil liquids production is set to rise by 672 kbd in 2025 and 530 kbd in 2026, boosted by substantial hedging during mid-June's oil price spike. Globally, oil liquids supply is projected to grow by 2.3 mbd this year. Speaker: Natasha Kaneva, Head of Global Commodities Research This podcast was recorded on July 3, 2025.

Old Capital Real Estate Investing Podcast with Michael Becker & Paul Peebles
Michael Ware, with Institutional Property Advisors in Dallas, shares critical information in making smart apartment investing decisions. Michael believes that Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) remains a top-performing multifamily market due to strong population and job growth. DFW multifamily trade volume has rebounded from $5 billion in 2023 to an expected $8–10 billion in 2024, to even higher in 2025 thus signaling recovery. Institutional capital is re-entering the market, focusing on Class A properties. Some of the challenges he saw were operational headwinds including oversupply, elevated concessions, and difficulties raising equity for deals over $10 million and workforce housing facing higher delinquency rates and vacancy issues, compounded by tenant-friendly eviction policies. Today, opportunities for institutional buyers are with Class A properties in prime locations, while B and C properties are offering better yields for private investors. Rent growth is expected to accelerate in 2025–2026 due to undersupply and affordability challenges in single-family housing. He offered advice to buyers: Smaller operators should focus on organization, transparency, and demonstrating financial readiness to compete with larger institutions, and well-located 1980s workforce housing offers strong potential for yield and long-term growth.

This Day in Legal History: 26th AmendmentOn June 30, 1971, the Twenty-sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified, lowering the voting age from 21 to 18. This change was largely driven by the political and social pressures of the Vietnam War era, when young Americans were being drafted to fight at 18 but could not vote. The rallying cry “old enough to fight, old enough to vote” captured the public's attention and galvanized a national movement. Though proposals to lower the voting age had circulated for decades, the urgency escalated in the 1960s and early 1970s as anti-war sentiment intensified.Congress passed the amendment with overwhelming support, and it achieved ratification at an unprecedented pace—taking just over three months, the fastest in U.S. history. This amendment added a new section to the Constitution, explicitly prohibiting federal and state governments from denying the right to vote to citizens aged 18 or older based on age. The swift ratification reflected broad bipartisan consensus and mounting public pressure to align civic duties and rights.The legal shift represented a significant expansion of suffrage in the United States, enfranchising millions of young people. It was also a notable example of constitutional change in response to contemporary social conditions and activism. States were subsequently required to amend their laws and election systems to accommodate the younger electorate, which has since played a key role in shaping political outcomes.Global mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in the first half of 2025 grew in value, despite fewer overall deals, thanks to a surge in megadeals—particularly in Asia. Market uncertainties tied to President Trump's tariff initiatives, high interest rates, and geopolitical tension initially dampened expectations. However, confidence among bankers is rising, with many believing that the worst of the turbulence has passed. The U.S. equity markets, bolstered by record highs in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, have helped restore optimism for stronger M&A activity in the second half of the year.Preliminary data show $2.14 trillion in global deals from January through June 27, a 26% increase year-over-year, driven in part by Asia's doubling in activity to nearly $584 billion. North America saw a 17% rise in deal value to over $1 trillion. Large deals, such as Toyota's $33 billion supplier buyout and ADNOC's $18.7 billion acquisition of Santos, helped drive Asia-Pacific's share of global M&A to over 27%. Meanwhile, fewer total deals—down to 17,528 from over 20,000 last year—were offset by a 62% rise in transactions worth over $10 billion.Eased antitrust policies in the U.S. and a drop in market volatility contributed to a more favorable environment. Investment bankers are now more optimistic, citing a strong pipeline for the second half and renewed IPO activity. Institutional investors are re-engaging, further fueling expectations of continued M&A momentum.Global M&A powered by larger deals in first half, bankers show appetite for megadeals | ReutersThe U.S. Supreme Court recently ruled to curtail the use of “universal” injunctions—orders that block government policies nationwide—marking a major legal victory for President Donald Trump. This decision limits the ability of individual judges to halt federal actions across the entire country, reinforcing that relief should generally only apply to the plaintiffs involved. The ruling, authored by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, aimed to rein in what some conservatives see as judicial overreach.However, this legal win may not help Trump implement one of his most controversial policies: an executive order seeking to deny birthright citizenship to U.S.-born children of non-citizen parents. Three lower court judges had already blocked the order, citing likely violations of the 14th Amendment. Although the Supreme Court narrowed the injunctions, it left room for opponents to pursue class-action suits or broader relief through state challenges.Legal scholars expect a wave of class-action cases and continued efforts by states and advocacy groups to block the order's implementation before the 30-day delay expires. States argue they need nationwide protection due to the administrative chaos such a policy would bring. Yet the Court declined to resolve whether states are entitled to broader injunctions, leaving that question to lower courts. If challengers fail to secure class-wide or state-level blocks, the executive order could go into effect unevenly across the country, creating legal confusion for families affected by it.Trump wins as Supreme Court curbs judges, but may yet lose on birthright citizenship | ReutersSenate Majority Leader John Thune is racing to meet President Donald Trump's July 4 deadline to pass a massive tax and spending bill, navigating deep divisions within the Republican Party. The $3.3 trillion legislation, which includes $4.5 trillion in tax cuts and $1.2 trillion in spending cuts, is facing resistance from at least eight GOP senators. Key disagreements center around healthcare funding, renewable energy subsidies, and the bill's fiscal impact, including a proposed $5 trillion debt ceiling increase.Senators like Thom Tillis and Rand Paul are opposing the bill, citing concerns over Medicaid cuts and fiscal irresponsibility. Tillis, recently freed from political pressure after announcing he won't seek reelection, is expected to vote no. With a slim margin for passage, Thune can afford to lose only three Republican votes, counting on Vice President JD Vance to break a tie.Market reactions have been mixed; renewable energy stocks dropped due to proposed cuts to wind and solar tax incentives. Meanwhile, moderates are pushing to preserve Medicaid benefits and clean energy credits, warning of political fallout if millions lose health coverage. Senators like Ron Johnson are pushing for deeper Medicaid cuts to reduce the bill's overall cost.Trump has not engaged in policy details but is pressuring lawmakers to deliver the bill on time, using social media to criticize dissenters. The Senate is set for a long amendment session, with the House potentially voting on the final version by Wednesday. Whether Thune can secure the needed votes remains uncertain as the July 4 deadline approaches.Trump Tax Bill Hits Senate With GOP Torn by Competing DemandsIn the aftermath of devastating wildfires in Los Angeles earlier this year, Wall Street firms are rushing to capitalize on a wave of lawsuits targeting utilities like Edison International and the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power. These fires, among the worst in U.S. history, destroyed over 12,000 structures and have spurred litigation that could result in tens of billions of dollars in damages. With law firms often operating on contingency fees and facing steep costs, many are turning to third-party litigation financing—a lightly regulated, fast-growing industry now valued at $16 billion in the U.S.Major financial players including Jefferies and Oppenheimer are brokering deals to provide multimillion-dollar loans to lawyers handling these complex cases. These loans, often subject to non-disclosure agreements, carry interest rates above 20% and are repaid only when the law firms recover damages. In addition to funding legal efforts, some investors are purchasing subrogation claims from insurers, betting on favorable court outcomes.California's legal doctrine of inverse condemnation makes it easier for plaintiffs to hold utilities liable without proving negligence, further enticing investors. While some attorneys refuse outside funding to preserve client interests, others argue that financing is essential for firms lacking deep capital reserves. Critics, including regulators and advocacy groups, are raising concerns about the opacity of the funding industry and the potential for conflicts of interest.Wall Street Backs Los Angeles Wildfire Lawsuits, Chasing Billions This is a public episode.

We published our midyear outlook this week, highlighting expectations for a significant stagflationary shift in 2H25 and our limited confidence in forecasting the magnitude of this shift. We expect global GDP growth to fall well below potential, while the US tariff shock is expected to increase overall global inflation. Despite the uncertainty, we are observing a shift in market signals away from the narrative of weaker growth and rising inflation. One key message from the markets is a growing conviction in the likelihood of near-term Fed easing. We see the risk of a September easing as high, contingent upon further evidence of softening in the US labor markets. Speakers: Bruce Kasman Joseph Lupton This podcast was recorded on 27 June 2025.

Looking at the latest outlook for the agri markets and where the risks lie ahead of upcoming formative USDA acreage and stocks reports. As we turn to 2H25, and formative stages of the northern hemisphere growing season and South American export window, most agricultural markets under coverage are trading at price levels below producer gross margins, with arguably negative risk premium across grain, sugar and cotton markets. The BCOM Agri Index down -4% YTD. Our June 2025 Fundamental Outlook continues to highlight that supply-side increases are being absorbed by demand, perpetuating the multi-year decline in global agri commodity availability through 2025/26.

In this monthly book club edition of Yet Another Value Podcast, host Andrew Walker is joined by Byrne Hobart of The Diff and Capital Gains to unpack Ray Dalio's latest book, How Countries Go Broke: The Big Cycle. The pair probe Dalio's sweeping macroeconomic theories, debt cycles, historical analogies, and technology's role in shaping the future. They scrutinize the credibility of Dalio's claims, the real-world implications of sovereign debt risks, and the potential misapplications of macro trading skills to macroeconomic policymaking. The conversation winds through AI's effect on productivity, the staying power of elites through societal upheavals, and even the viability of crypto as a hedge. It's a rich analysis with sharp skepticism and economic nuance._________________________________________________[00:00:00] Podcast and guest introduction[00:01:38] Initial thoughts on Dalio's book[00:05:26] Short vs. long debt cycles[00:06:40] Historical cycle timing critique[00:07:24] Pre-WWI and 1930s comparison[00:10:11] Disconnection between theories and globalization[00:16:25] Institutional trust and economic cycles[00:18:18] Credibility of Dalio's theories[00:21:26] Macro trading vs. macro policy[00:24:42] Trump-era policy implications[00:26:19] Foreign debt selling as signal[00:28:14] Put options in tail events[00:32:35] Buffett's strategic puts example[00:35:32] Technology optimism in final chapter[00:40:25] AI effects on labor, productivity[00:45:43] Older professionals using AI[00:47:00] Book's global bearish stance[00:51:22] Historical elite persistence examples[00:53:45] Bitcoin in crisis scenarios[01:01:54] Sovereign wealth fund proposal critiqueLinks:Yet Another Value Blog: https://www.yetanothervalueblog.com See our legal disclaimer here: https://www.yetanothervalueblog.com/p/legal-and-disclaimer

How Two Legal Changemakers Are Redefining Leadership, Collaboration, and Racial Justice in a Divided World In this episode of Everyday Conversations on Race, Simma Lieberman is joined by Professor Susan Sturm of Columbia Law School, and community change agent Richard Gray of the Center for Collaborative Education. These longtime collaborators talk candidly about their friendship across race, the evolution of their leadership work, and how confronting racism means more than just talking about it. They explore how white people can genuinely show up in racial justice work, the difference between performative allyship and real connection, and the need for inclusive institutional change—especially when that change is under attack. Together, they break down the core themes from Susan's book What Might Be: Confronting Racism to Transform Our Institutions. You'll hear stories of personal transformation, resistance against performative politics, and lessons in building multiracial and multigenerational coalitions. Whether you're an advocate, educator, or someone struggling with how to take meaningful action, this conversation is for you. Timestamps: 1:10 – Why these conversations matter now more than ever 3:45 – Meet Professor Susan Sturm and Richard Gray 8:10 – How Susan and Richard met and started collaborating 14:30 – Real friendship across race: beyond credentials 20:10 – Susan on being a white person who “meant well” but needed to unlearn 26:45 – Richard on redefining what it means to be a lawyer for social justice 33:00 – "Hanging out while white" — how not to be awkward or performative 36:20 – What What Might Be really means, and how to act in paradox 43:00 – Institutions, white comfort, and what transformation should look like 52:00 – Micro-spaces of justice: how change happens when the law falls short 59:40 – What each of us can do now (no matter who we are) Guest Information: Susan Sturm is the George M. Jaffin Professor of Law & Social Responsibility at Columbia Law School and the Founding Director of the Center for Institutional and Social Change. Her new book, What Might Be: Confronting Racism to Transform Our Institutions, explores the paradoxes built into anti-racism work and how to turn them into drivers of learning and change. It provides strategies for staying engaged in this work amidst the challenging conditions we now face. Richard Gray serves as director of AISR's Community Organizing & Engagement team. His work includes providing strategic support on community organizing and engagement to community and school reform organizations in cities across the country. He also directs AISR's Center for Education Organizing, which helps expand the power of education organizing through building strategic alliances among organizations and with strategic partners such as teachers' unions, reform support organizations, civil rights organizations, and research and policy institutes.

The first half is tracking roughly in line with our trend-like outlook just ahead of the US election last year. However, 2H25 should deliver a very different picture if our forecast is right. Assessing risks ahead of such an anticipated slowing is difficult but this does not stop us from debating. Central banks are leaning dovish in light of the downside growth risks, with the exception of the Fed facing upside tariff-related inflation risks. The Mideast war adds a new supply shock to complicate the forecast even further. Speakers: Bruce Kasman Joseph Lupton This podcast was recorded on 20 June 2025.

Regime changes in oil-producing countries—whether through leadership transitions, coups, revolutions, or major political shifts—can profoundly affect the country's oil policy, production, and global oil prices, both in the short and long term. Since 1979, there have been eight notable instances of regime change in medium-to-large scale oil-producing nations. While demand conditions and OPEC's spare capacity significantly influence the overall market impact, these events typically result in prices spiking by 76% from onset to peak and averaging a 30% increase, leaving lasting effects.

In this episode, Craig speaks with Chris Hefner to discuss their experiences at the Southern Baptist Convention's annual meeting. They explore the structure and governance of the Southern Baptist Convention, the significance of the Cooperative Program, and the highlights from the meeting, including updates on missionaries and the role of seminaries. They also address the North American Mission Board's efforts in church planting and disaster relief, the function of the Executive Committee, and the current scrutiny facing institutions within the convention. Chris and Craig also discuss the importance of integrity and transparency in leadership within the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), particularly focusing on the Ethics and Religious Liberties Commission (ERLC). They explore the challenges faced by the ERLC, its role in representing Southern Baptists in political matters, and the tensions that arise from differing views on its purpose. The discussion also touches on the ongoing debates regarding women in pastoral roles, the future of the SBC's governing documents, and the perception of a liberal drift within the convention.

Crypto isn't just recovering, it's evolving. Christopher Perkins, President of CoinFund, joins Wealthion's Maggie Lake to explain why we're entering a new era of digital finance. They break down the rise of stablecoins (which could drive $2T in Treasury demand), the tokenization of real-world assets (from stocks to real estate), and why U.S. regulatory clarity is unleashing a wave of institutional adoption. Plus, how meme coins ironically paved the way for capital formation, and why fixed income in crypto could be the next big thing. Whether you're holding Bitcoin, exploring Ethereum, or just crypto-curious, this interview offers a rare inside look at what's coming next and how to position yourself for it.
