Some passages in Scripture are descriptive, meaning they record historical events and actions without intending to establish doctrine or serve as commands for all believers. While these accounts provide valuable lessons and reveal God's work throughout history, doctrine should be built primarily from passages that clearly teach and prescribe God's will. Careful interpretation requires considering the context, timing, and overall message of Scripture so that believers do not mistakenly turn historical narratives into universal commands. Understanding this distinction helps us apply God's Word faithfully and accurately. __________ Acts 1:21–26 NLT, John 16:13–15 NLT, Romans 8:14 NLT, Acts 2:1–4 NLT, Acts 4:32–35 NLT, Acts 5:3–4 NLT, 2 Corinthians 9:7 NLT, Judges 21:20–23 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________
Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
A cybersecurity firm worth two billion dollars classified Nancy Guthrie's alleged abduction as a wrench attack by proxy. Their language, not ours. A wrench attack is a crypto-targeted crime. Nancy Guthrie is eighty-four years old with no known cryptocurrency holdings.That disconnect is the center of this conversation. If CertiK's classification is accurate, the person who was taken may not have been the intended target. Catalina Foothills is one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in Tucson. Someone in that ZIP code may hold the kind of crypto that draws a six-million-dollar ransom demand. And if whoever showed up at Nancy's address was looking for that person, they found an eighty-four-year-old woman instead — and had a problem they couldn't walk away from.Meanwhile, volunteers have searched the border region three separate times after anonymous tips. Twenty-five unmarked graves found. None connected to Nancy. The Tohono O'odham reservation offers seventy-two miles of minimally monitored border. DNA sits at Quantico. The sheriff faces a recall. And the question nobody else is asking out loud: if Nancy wasn't the target, the real one may still be living nearby.Jennifer Coffindaffer, contributor to Hidden Killers, breaks it down.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Drawing from Romans 8:29-30, the sermon unfolds the unbreakable "Golden Chain of Salvation": those whom God foreknew, He predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son; those He predestined, He called; those He called, He justified; and those He justified, He glorified. This chain, grounded entirely in God's eternal purpose and power, provides unshakable assurance that the Lord will complete the good work He has begun in every true believer.

We skipped the 3-hour line. And it cost us more than our mortgage payment. Paul Adams just got back from Disneyland with his family - and he's not sorry about what he spent. In this video, he breaks down the one upgrade that turned a chaotic, line-standing, schedule-juggling Disney trip into something his family will talk about for years. But this isn't just a Disney hack video. Because halfway through the trip, Paul and his wife sat in a room in Coronado and were asked a question that stopped them cold: Have you planned for your family's legacy as intentionally as you've planned for your career? That question - and what it means for how you spend your time, your money, and your years with your kids still at home - is what this video is really about.

Adrian revisits a classic episode (originally Ep. 30, Nov 2020) in this monthly rewind, Episode 333 of China Manufacturing Decoded, and sits down with Sofeast CEO, Renaud, to unpack the three types of quality-control (QC) plans every importer and manufacturer should agree before production starts. Renaud explains three types of QC plans: The product quality control plan, often linked to the manufacturing contract. The process control plan, which controls quality during production rather than waiting until the end. The QC plan for new products, which helps buyers and suppliers think through risks before mass production starts. Key takeaways for listeners: QC planning is a pre-production activity not a rescue job; define a clear product quality standard; decide how quality will be controlled during production; and for any new product, agree on what must be proven before mass production. If any of those points are unclear, that's likely where your next quality risk is hiding.

Every time you say yes to avoid discomfort, you're saying no to yourself. Over time, that trade leads straight to burnout — and to showing up for everyone else at a fraction of your capacity.In this episode, Jesse breaks down two foundational steps to stop operating on everyone else's terms and start advocating for yourself for real.What you'll hear:Step 1 — Do an inventory. Jesse walks you through a simple two-column exercise: what you do because you want to, versus what you do because someone else wants or expects it. Most people who do this exercise are surprised by what they find; over-delivering for others while their own wellness, growth, health, and relationships sit at the bottom of the list. This inventory tells you exactly where boundaries are needed and who actually values your time.Step 2 — Get clear on whose expectations you're actually living by. Here's the thing: most of the expectations running your life were never explicitly stated. They're assumed. Jesse shares real career examples of paths he walked away from like project management and corporate roles, once he got honest about what he actually valued. He also addresses the reality check: if someone's paying your bills, some expectations are non-negotiable. Knowing the difference is the whole game.If you've been feeling stretched thin, resentful, or like you're constantly serving everyone but yourself, this episode is a direct answer to why.00:00 Stop Saying Yes00:42 Two Advocacy Steps01:45 Do An Inventory02:53 Two Column Exercise05:02 Reality Check Results06:14 Friend Favor Trap08:11 Boundaries And Progress09:46 From Salty To Clarity14:27 Get Clear On Expectations17:56 Career Path Wake Up19:35 Choosing Your Own Path21:51 Balancing Life Priorities28:18 Invest In Internal Teams29:31 Quick Summary And GoodbyeGet the time management system that will make you dangerously effective: https://www.depthbuilder.com/time-management-webinar-sign-up-pageSubscribe to the Monday Morning Hugs Newsletter for thought provoking topics to accelerate your growth: LinkedIn Newsletter Download the free PDF copy of Becoming the Promise You are Intended to Be

WHAT IS A PHARMACY BENEFIT MANAGER? And more importantly why do they make drugs more expensive? This little known middle man between drug companies and health insurance plans was INTENDED to make things cheaper, but consolidation has led to three companies doing all the work and significantly driving costs HIGHER.

Nine hundred and fifty dollars. An online module and a one-day workshop. That's the specialist training that qualifies a family lawyer to represent your child's best interests in court - and that's the starting point for part 2 of Working As Intended.In this episode, Danielle walks through the structural reality of Independent Children's Lawyer accreditation in Australia, including the Australian Institute of Family Studies finding that there are no uniform professional development requirements for ICLs across jurisdictions. From there, the episode pivots into an argument you won't hear in most family law commentary - that the pre-1975 system, however sexist in its assumptions, was accidentally more aligned with what attachment science would later confirm than the reformed system that replaced it. And what the 2006 transactional lens cost children.If you've ever wondered why the person appointed to represent your children's "best interests" appears unfamiliar with what those best interests actually require - this is the longer answer.The episode opens with a brief clarification refining two specific points from part 1.The Post-Separation Parenting Blueprint is the structured way through this work - built for protective parents equipping themselves to advocate for their children with the knowledge the system never required its practitioners to have.

H.W. Brands describes how, in early 1941, Roosevelt introduced the Lend-Lease Act (HR 1776), a bill that ironically shared its name with the year of American independence but intended to "marry America's future to Britain's future." Because Britain was running out of cash, Roosevelt argued that the U.S. should lend or lease weaponry to ensure they didn't go down for lack of funds. He was aided by a sentimental shift in American public opinion, driven by Edward R. Murrow's broadcasts which portrayed the "stubborn British" as heroic underdogs fighting for democracy. Simultaneously, a covert information war was being waged by William Stephenson, the director of British propaganda in America, who worked with William "Wild Bill" Donovan to manipulate U.S. opinion with the administration's blessing. While Roosevelt publicly complained about German propaganda, his own administration used unacknowledged stories and rumors to move Americans toward war. Lindbergh called out this hypocrisy, arguing that aiding Churchill—an "unreconstructed" imperialist—was not a defense of democracy but a defense of British rule in places like India. Roosevelt even utilized a forged map, allegedly showing a German plan to reorganize Latin America and replace the Bible with Mein Kampf, to stir fear. Lindbergh's diary reveals his deep intuition that every step away from neutrality was a calculated move toward war, regardless of the president's stated desire for peace. (5)1941
Patrick K. O'Donnell explores the 1864 Dahlgren Raid, a failed Union "decapitation raid" intended to burn Richmondand assassinate Jefferson Davis. In response, the Confederacy intensified its Secret Service operations, employing spies, coded telegraphy, and influence campaigns to undermine Lincoln's 1864 re-election. They funded Northern "Copperhead" editors to promote peace while John Singleton Mosby's rangers disrupted Union logistics. This era also featured author Herman Melville, who embedded with Union cavalry to document the terrifying reality of fighting Mosby's elusive, pistol-wielding irregulars who dominated the headlines of Northern Virginia.

He got better by going shorter, ditching the scripts, and replacing bullet points with stories. Now he's a general superintendent at ICM Construction, a construction influencer, and one of the more honest voices in the trades about what it actually takes to shift a jobsite culture from the inside.In this episode, Jesse and Boone get into what it looks like to lead crews who've been doing this longer than you have, why systems matter more than blame, and how tools like Last Planner can either build a team or blow one up depending on how you roll them out.What you'll hear:How Boone turned a childhood stutter into a communication strength — and why story-driven toolbox talks land harder than scripted onesWhat it looks like to lead hardheaded, old-school crews without losing their respect or your standardsThe honest story of how he butchered Last Planner on his first try — and why Lean tools get weaponized against the culture they're supposed to buildThe workforce pressures forcing construction to get serious about how it treats people, whether it wants to or notInside ICM's Align Academy and the Old Dog Community — and why experienced supers need a peer group as much as anyoneBoone's push to change how Mississippi bids and delivers workBoone's a working super who figured things out the hard way.

Hosts: Ed Jones (Owner of Nutrition World) & Clint Powell A variety of topics all related to living a healthy life Presented by: Nutrition World www.nutritionw.com Broadcasting from the Nooga Dentistry Studio www.noogadentistry.com Production of: Whitfield Media Group www.vitalhealthradio.com Title: Impact of Tennessee Hemp Bill, Discussion of Polypharmacy & Deprescribing with Dr. Curt Dearing [0:00:00] Ed's Media & Product Updates Preview of main topics: Upcoming Tennessee hemp bill and its negative impact on people using hemp for anxiety, pain, and insomnia. Dr. Curt Deering will discuss polypharmacy and deprescribing. Ed's recent appearances on multiple TV outlets (Fox Phoenix & LA, Be Well NY, CBS Detroit). Discussion of testing the AquaTru water filtration system at home as a potential recommendation (microplastics, partial fluoride removal). Mention that peptides are a growing topic; reference to Noel Lawson as go‑to for prescribed peptides [0:10:42] Tennessee Hemp Bill & Hemp Industry Impact Introduces guest: Dwayne Madden, owner of Hemp House, as a respected local expert. As of July 1 in Tennessee: All Delta‑8 products will no longer be available for in‑state sale. Many THCA products and all vape products will be gone from shops. CBD and Delta‑9 edibles will have caps: Max 15 mg per serving. Max 300 mg per package. Dwayne notes: Heavy users (e.g., serious pain/conditions) will need to consume many servings to reach effective doses. Law doesn't limit how many packages a person can buy, so total milligrams aren't truly stopped—just made inconvenient. Dwayne explains regulatory control moved: From Tennessee Department of Agriculture (2017–2023) To the ABC (Alcoholic Beverage Commission) Board. Key impacts: All products must now go through distributors, similar to alcohol. Distributors collect taxes and sit between producers and retailers. Small operators like Dwayne cannot qualify for distributor licenses , so he must pay a distributor to move product from his own lab to his own stores. Ed frames this as “follow the money trail” and a way to crush competition. In Tennessee after July 1: No in‑state online hemp sales. Banned products (Delta‑8, etc.) not criminalized for possession or use, only for sale. Potential Workaround: Consumers can order from out‑of‑state websites (e.g., North Carolina), receive products in Tennessee Money leaves the local economy, hurting Tennessee businesses. Ed and Dwayne suggest alcohol industry is likely threatened because many people are reducing alcohol use by using hemp products instead Dwayne notes: Alcohol sales have declined while hemp sales rose. Regulators appear to be protecting alcohol interests via hemp restrictions. [0:17:41] Federal Regulations & State Opt‑Outs Upcoming federal regulations in November: Expected to be similarly “ugly and nasty” for hemp nationwide. States will have an option to opt out of these federal hemp rules. Tennessee's stance: Governor has stated Tennessee will NOT opt out, so federal restrictions will apply here. Other states (e.g., North Carolina) might opt out, keeping their markets more open. Industry response: Advocacy groups Tennessee Growers Coalition and Hemp Law Group monitor legislation and organize pushback. Some supportive legislators exist, but political drive to reverse current law is limited. Dwayne and Ed distinguish: Reasonable regulation (ID checks, lab tests, dosage clarity, education) vs. A “wipeout/control/takeover” by shifting to ABC and forcing distributor reliance. Dwayne: Says credible local shops (Hemp House, Chattanooga peers like BeeGrity, Snapdragon, etc.) already follow high standards. States this law is not about safety but about control and revenue capture, and will hurt small farmers and businesses. [0:25:55] What Consumers Should Do Before Deadline Practical advice: Stock up now on products that will disappear: Delta‑8 gummies (popular for sleep, anxiety, pain). Other higher‑milligram THC/CBD edibles. Flower and vapes. Hemp House is running clearance sales to move remaining inventory. Dosing notes: Many people do well with ½ Delta‑8 gummy for sleep/anxiety/pain. Some need more or less; staff helps tailor doses for goals. Hemp House will close its North Shore/Tremont Street flagship store by July 1 due to expected sales hit. Remaining Hemp House locations: Ringgold Road (East Ridge) near Spring Creek. Ooltewah by Food City on Lee Highway. Hixson Pike near Workout Anytime and Publix. Broader impact: Other Chattanooga hemp businesses have large staffs (some near 100 employees) and will be heavily affected. The industry is described as grassroots, farmer‑driven, and passionately quality‑focused. [0:33:20] Polypharmacy & Deprescribing with Dr. Curt Dearing Ed introduces Dr. Curt Dearing, clinical pharmacist at Nutrition World (30+ years experience). Curt's background: Formerly fully conventional pharmacist; later “veil lifted” as he discovered green pharmacy (nutritional & botanical alternatives). Current mission: Community outreach to medical schools and residency programs Teach about nutritional and natural alternatives not covered in standard curriculums. Traditional training provides almost zero meaningful nutrition or green pharmacy education. Polypharmacy: use of 5 or more prescription medications. Curt notes: Majority of Americans 65+ meet this definition. Average American receives ~17 prescriptions per year (not all concurrent). Consequences: Increased ER visits due to drug side effects. Estimated ~250,000 deaths/year from drug‑induced causes. Curt's role: Specializes in deprescribing: safely reducing or eliminating unnecessary pharmaceuticals and replacing them with effective natural options when possible. How Curt Works with Patients & Their Doctors Curt provides coaching, not independent prescribing. Creates detailed packets (10–18+ pages) explaining: Why certain drugs may no longer be needed. Evidence for natural alternatives (e.g., supplements, lifestyle changes). Encourages clients to take the packet to their doctor and have an informed discussion. Patients often fear how their doctors will react to attempts to deprescribe. Green Pharmacy Approach (as described by Dr. Curt Dearing) Using nutritional, botanical, and lifestyle-based therapies either instead of or alongside pharmaceuticals. Focusing on root causes and supporting the body's own healing mechanisms, not just pushing lab numbers in a certain direction. Why polypharmacy is a problem: Increases side effects, drug–drug interactions, and emergency room visits. Contributes to cognitive decline, gut problems, and overall worse health. Often leads to the “prescribing cascade”: Drug A causes side effects → a new drug is added for those side effects → more side effects → more drugs, and so on. How Dr. Curt Dearing uses green pharmacy to reduce polypharmacy: Curt creates a comprehensive list of all medications and supplements. Asks: “Why was this started?” and “Is it still needed?” Looks for: Drugs with no clear current indication. Drugs where a natural option can give similar or better benefit with fewer risks. Drugs that can be safely tapered or sometimes stopped outright (always in coordination with the prescriber). Identifies which meds are likely causing the most harm or least benefit. Some drugs require slow, structured tapering (e.g., sleep meds, acid blockers). Others may be candidates for direct discontinuation after medical agreement. Replacing or supporting with natural alternatives ( please note this is not medical advice, this is a discussion of personal examples in collaboration with medical oversight) Cholesterol: Instead of (or in place of some) statin use, Curt uses berberine and bergamot (Berbercol). In Ed's brother's case, his cholesterol numbers improved on green-pharmacy options, matching or exceeding statin outcomes without the same side‑effect burden. Pain & inflammation: Uses curcumin (for most people), and Boswellia when curcumin isn't enough. Gut/acid issues: Long-term proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use (e.g., omeprazole, lansoprazole) is flagged as harmful to gut microbiome and nutrient absorption. Curt builds step-down plans (tapering PPIs) while supporting the gut with natural measures instead of leaving people on a PPI for 30 years. Focus on side benefits, not side effects. Green pharmacy interventions are chosen because they: Address root causes (e.g., metabolic health, inflammation, gut integrity). Often have multiple positive effects (e.g., berberine helping blood sugar and lipids; curcumin helping joints and systemic inflammation). The aim is fewer total drugs, fewer side effects, better overall function. Clients are encouraged to work with their doctor, so deprescribing is: Planned, Monitored, and Integrated with their existing care. Curt and Ed both acknowledge there are situations where “rescue medicine” is necessary: Severe pain where an opioid is appropriate. Acute crises where drugs are needed as a bandage. The green pharmacy view: Use those drugs as short‑term tools, Then remove or reduce them once the immediate crisis passes, While implementing natural strategies to decrease the need for long‑term prescriptions. [0:56:26] Final Segment At‑home HPV testing for cervical cancer Ed explains HPV is a major driver of cervical cancer Historically, women had to schedule an in‑office visit for cervical screening, which creates barriers (cost, fear, time, discomfort, lack of insurance). He notes there is now an option for at‑home HPV testing for cervical screening. Intended to increase access for women who aren't getting regular screening. Ed strongly approves of this as a valuable preventive tool and encourages women who haven't been tested to consider it. Ed cites new data showing: Microplastics are found in 100% of human stool samples tested in one study. Higher levels of microplastics are now being linked to gallstones. Broader concerns: Everyday plastic exposure (especially with food and drink) means these particles can: Interact with cells, Drive inflammation, Contribute to premature cellular aging and reduced energy. Practical countermeasures he recommends: Avoid heating food in plastic or placing hot food into plastic containers/wrap (e.g., Saran wrap, plastic take‑out containers). Filter drinking water to remove microplastics (he's trialing the AquaTru system at home, which he says removes 100% of microplastics and much of the fluoride). Improve indoor air quality to reduce airborne microplastic exposure. Ed highlights a serious, long‑term job opening at Nutrition World: Not a summer or short‑term job. Best for someone philosophically aligned with healthy eating and the “green pharmacy” approach. Interested candidates should: Go into the store and speak with Scott, Elisha, or Matt and complete an application. The post Radio Show / Podcast – May 31, 2026 first appeared on Vital Health Radio.
Most people think Lean is a manufacturing methodology. Sneha Kumari lives it as a mindset.Sneha is back on Learnings & Missteps. She's the president of Merlin AI and one of the most recognized women in manufacturing; and this conversation gets into the stuff that actually moves the needle.Jesse and Sneha dig into why Lean isn't just a process tool, it's a way of thinking about simplicity, eliminating waste, and respecting people's time. That includes your team, your clients, and yes, even your kids. When you build systems — whether that's automation, AI, or a morning routine — the goal is the same: remove time as a bottleneck.They also break down how tight feedback loops change the game.

Is MicroStrategy's new preferred stock STRC really the next big financial product — or just a shiny object designed to harvest your savings? In this episode of More Than Commas, Paul breaks down STRC, MicroStrategy's preferred stock promising 11% annual returns paid monthly — and why those numbers deserve a much closer look. Using a Coffeezilla analysis as a jumping-off point, Paul unpacks exactly how this product works, who it's really designed for, and what the fine print means for everyday investors. They cover the mechanics behind STRC, its deep ties to Bitcoin, the risks most people overlook, and why comparing it to a bank account or money market fund is dangerously misleading. More importantly, this episode is a reminder that when something promises double-digit returns with minimal explanation, the real question isn't how much you could gain — it's what you could lose. -- Timestamps: 00:00 – Introduction to STRC and MicroStrategy 01:30 – What STRC is and how it works 05:00 – The 11% return promise explained 09:45 – Coffeezilla's analysis breakdown 15:20 – Bitcoin exposure and concentrated risk 20:10 – Why STRC is not a bank or money market account 25:30 – Red flags in the pitch and financial engineering 30:00 – What retail investors need to know 35:00 – Final thoughts and long-term strategy reminders -- #microstrategy #bitcoin #STRC #investingtips #wealthbuilding #financialeducation #morethancommas #personalfinance #cryptowarning #financialplanning -- This Material is Intended for General Public Use.

Sponsored by Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, and Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation. Intended for US Audiences. This information is for general purposes only and is not a substitute for consulting your healthcare provider about food allergy treatment. Dr. Ari Zelig has been financially compensated by Genentech and Novartis for his participation in this episode. Today, I'm joined by Dr. Ari Zelig, a board-certified allergist and immunologist to unpack what's really happening when it comes to food allergies - and why so many more people are dealing with them today. If you are navigating food allergies, or if you've ever wondered if what you're experiencing might be more than just a sensitivity, this episode features an informative discussion on these topics! In this episode, we dive into the reality of living with food allergies, from the day-to-day challenges that families carry to the misconceptions that still exist around what an allergic reaction to food actually looks like. Dr. Zelig breaks down IgE-mediated food allergies, what's happening in the body during a reaction, and why early exposure guidelines for kids have changed. Plus, we discuss a treatment option, XOLAIR (omalizumab), an FDA-approved prescription medication for subcutaneous use that can help reduce allergic reactions to multiple foods that may occur after accidental exposure in people with IgE-mediated food allergies one year of age and up. While taking XOLAIR you should continue to avoid all foods to which you are allergic. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with food allergies, talk to your allergist and ask about XOLAIR. You can also find more information at XOLAIR.com. XOLAIR is one of several available treatment options for IgE-mediated food allergy and it may not be appropriate for all patients. What is XOLAIR?XOLAIR®(omalizumab) for subcutaneous use is an injectable prescription medicine used to treat food allergy in people 1 year of age and older to reduce allergic reactions that may occur after accidentally eating one or more foods to which you are allergic. While taking XOLAIR you should continue to avoid all foods to which you are allergic. It is not known if XOLAIR is safe and effective in people with food allergy under 1 year of age. XOLAIR should not be used for the emergency treatment of any allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis. What is the most important information I should know about XOLAIR?Severe allergic reaction. A severe allergic reaction called anaphylaxis can happen when you receive XOLAIR. The reaction can occur after the first dose, or after many doses. It may also occur right after a XOLAIR injection or days later. Anaphylaxis is a life-threatening condition and can lead to death. Go to the nearest emergency room right away if you have any of these symptoms of an allergic reaction:· wheezing, shortness of breath, cough, chest tightness, or trouble breathing· low blood pressure, dizziness, fainting, rapid or weak heartbeat, anxiety, or feeling of “impending doom”· flushing, itching, hives, or feeling warm· swelling of the throat or tongue, throat tightness, hoarse voice, or trouble swallowing Your healthcare provider will monitor you closely for symptoms of an allergic reaction while you are receiving XOLAIR and for a period of time after treatment is initiated. Your healthcare provider should talk to you about getting medical treatment if you have symptoms of an allergic reaction.

Episode 146: This week, Kyle Van Pelt talks with Vib Arya and Sean Meighan of Envestnet. As Head of Strategic Relationship Management, Vib is a seasoned wealth and investment management leader with more than 25 years of experience driving innovation and efficiency across RIA, institutional, wirehouse, and fintech channels. As Head of RIA Distribution, Sean has spent his career helping advisory firms navigate growth, technology adoption, and operational strategy within the evolving RIA landscape. Vib and Sean talk with Kyle about how modern RIAs can scale fast. They explore how technology has evolved from a support function into a true growth multiplier, powering efficiency, enabling personalization at scale, and helping firms navigate complexity. They also discuss the ongoing battle against tech sprawl and how Unified Managed Accounts (UMAs) act less like a product and more like an automated trading chassis capable of handling everything from high-net-worth personalization to account efficiency. In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (01:11) - How technology fits into the RIA growth equation (02:34) - Designing the ideal advisor workflow (04:00) - What shaped Sean's and Vib's technology philosophy (08:49) - Diagnosing tech stacks and aligning them with firm strategy (13:00) - The hidden cost of tech sprawl (18:01) - How UMAs are evolving for modern RIAs (24:29) - Separating AI hype from practical application in wealth management (31:49) - Vib's and Sean's Milemarker Minute Key Takeaways The best tech decisions begin with a clear vision of the client and advisor experience. Workflow clarity should dictate your tech stack, not the other way around. Don't let tech sprawl slow you down. Chasing best-in-class tools can create fragmented systems that are hard to manage. At some point, simplicity and integration become a competitive advantage. UMAs are evolving into a flexible growth engine. What used to be a high-net-worth solution is now becoming a scalable infrastructure for firms of all sizes, handling everything from simple ETF models to complex multi-manager portfolios. Ground AI in workflow and data basics. With AI moving at a rapid pace, firms seeing the most meaningful AI opportunities are the ones that already have clean data, intentional systems, and clearly defined processes. Quotes "RIA growth is going to be driven by scale, consistency, and risk control. But you can't do that without technology." ~ Sean Meighan "The UMA is a tech chassis that can solve a myriad of problems an RIA faces today." ~ Sean Meighan "There's an opportunity for Envestnet to provide RIAs and advisors with as much complexity, personalization, and sophistication as they would like, and as simple a form as possible, with one account having multiple strategies and multiple sleeves." ~ Vib Arya "As client demands become more sophisticated and complex, the UMA is a perfect ecosystem to provide all of that, and we're proud to offer it." ~ Vib Arya Links Vibhaw Arya on LinkedIn Sean Meighan on LinkedIn Envestnet Shufro Rose Tamarac | Envestnet Good to Great The Game Connect with our hosts Milemarker.co Kyle on LinkedIn Jud on LinkedIn Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube The information, analysis and opinions expressed herein are for informational purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the views of Envestnet.

Welcome back to the Word on Fire Show. I'm Matthew Petrusek, senior director of the Word on Fire Institute and the host of the Word on Fire Show. Thank you for joining us. Although not widely reported in legacy media outlets, Christianity is, by far, the most persecuted religion in the world. From the Middle East and Africa to India, China, North Korea, and elsewhere, Christian communities regularly experience widespread humiliation, imprisonment, kidnappings, expulsions, and even murderous mob violence. While not as severe, Christians in parts of Europe and even right here at home, in the US, also often endure discrimination, exclusion, and ridicule. There is no ambiguity about who is carrying out these attacks or what motivates them. Like the martyrs of past centuries, millions of our Christian brothers and sisters are currently suffering because they profess faith in Jesus Christ. In response to this ongoing outrage, Bishop Robert Barron has released a new book called What Do Their Deaths Demand? Christian Persecution Today. Intended for widespread distribution, the book spotlights heartbreaking stories of the continued targeting of Christian communities throughout the world, offers a theological explanation for why Christianity has been under assault since its inception, and, most importantly, provides actionable ideas for what all of us can do to respond. Here to discuss the book—and why its message is more urgent than ever—is Bishop Robert Barron. Topics Covered 00:00 | Introduction 01:38 | The final meeting of the Religious Liberty Commission 02:51 | Why this book, and why now? 05:16 | Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa's foreword 06:46 | Aid to the Church in Need 07:47 | Why Christian persecution is largely ignored 09:00 | Part 1: The Most Persecuted Religion 15:36 | Part 2: Why the Persecution of Christians? 22:41 | The fundamental quandary 25:09 | Part 3: So What Can We Do? 32:09 | Listener question: Should we present the crucifixion more positively? 34:38 | Join the Word on Fire Institute Links: Word on Fire Institute: https://institute.wordonfire.org/ NOTE: Do you like this podcast?

Did you know that every civilisation produces its own orthodoxies.Beliefs are rehearsed so consistently, absorbed so gradually, that they eventually cease to feel like beliefs at all and instead begin to feel more like the natural order of things.Some of those orthodoxies have built great societies. And yes, they have.Others have quietly dismantled them from the inside out.Yet, one of the most enduring beliefs of our time, present not only in culture but deeply embedded within the Church itself, is the belief that insufficiency spiritually somehow is of God… that to struggle perpetually is purportedly a mark of holiness… and that lack, in some sacred sense, reflects the will of God for His people.This is a satanic lie.Sophisticated in its construction. Theological in its costume; and generational in its damage.Why so?Because the most consequential battles in life are never first financial. They are first ideological. They begin in the mind long before they appear in the marketplace and the concourse of life.And until wrong thinking is confronted, cycles hardly ever change.
What if God never intended for you to live empty, exhausted, and running on fumes? What if the Holy Spirit wants to fill you so completely that what fills you is greater than what faces you? In the book of Acts, Luke uses six different words to describe the ministry of the Holy Spirit. Each word reveals a unique dimension of all that the Holy Spirit brings to our lives.The Holy Spirit wants to:· Immerse you in God's presence.· Give you divine power to fulfill your assignment.· Completely saturate you with His presence that is greater than your problems· Help you live in the overflow, not on fumes· Wrap you in the Father's embrace· Equip you to live the life God always intended.

1. Historic Indictment Raúl Castro has been indicted by the U.S. for murder, conspiracy, and destruction of aircraft. Charges relate to the February 24, 1996 incident where Cuban military jets shot down two civilian planes. Four people (including three U.S. citizens) were killed. 2. Allegation of Direct Responsibility Prosecutors claim: The attack was intentional, not accidental. Castro, then Cuba’s Defense Minister, authorized and helped direct the operation. Evidence cited includes: Military communications Intelligence reports Longstanding testimony 3. Delayed Justice The indictment comes nearly 30 years after the incident. It is portrayed as long-awaited accountability for victims’ families. 4. Symbolic and Political Context Announcement took place in Miami’s Freedom Tower, a symbolic site for Cuban exiles. Marks one of the first times a senior Cuban leader is charged in U.S. court. 5. Shift in U.S. Policy Approach There is a change in U.S. posture toward authoritarian regimes: From diplomacy (e.g., Obama-era engagement) To criminal prosecution, sanctions, and pressure 6. Broader Strategic Message The indictment is framed as part of a larger strategy: Indict leaders Cut financial resources Increase international isolation Encourage defections Wait for internal collapse 7. Comparison to Venezuela The approach is compared to actions taken against Nicolás Maduro. Suggests indictments can: Isolate leaders globally Trigger internal fractures within regimes 8. Limited Immediate Practical Impact Castro is 94 years old, and Cuba is unlikely to extradite him. A trial in the U.S. is uncertain. 9. Psychological and Geopolitical Impact The indictment is presented as: A “warning shot” to authoritarian regimes A tool to undermine regime stability internally Intended to send message: Leaders who harm Americans can be pursued indefinitely Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Your people aren't running out of steam because they're soft. They're running out of electrolytes — and the water cooler isn't fixing it.Jennifer Martinez is a sports-medicine-trained performance specialist who decided the trades deserved the same recovery science as elite athletes. She calls it rapid restoration. And she's got an approach that turns depleted workers around in about 10 minutes.In this episode, Jesse and Jennifer break down what's actually draining your workforce — filtered water, energy drinks, caffeine, stress, poor diet. Why the headaches, cramps, fatigue, and on-the-job mistakes your crew writes off as "just part of the job" are symptoms, not character flaws. It's a $100 billion annual problem hiding in plain sight.Jennifer also talks about the faith that kept her going through early pushback, why she rebranded to "rapid restoration," and the mission underneath all of it: getting workers home to their families healthier than when they showed up.In this episode:Why "drink more water" is making things worse, not betterThe everyday habits silently draining your crewHow depletion shows up as mistakes, heat illness, and underreported incidentsWhy workers have to feel better before they'll change behaviorJennifer's journey from pushback to rapid restorationConnect with Jennifer Martinez: J Mar Solutions | LinkedIn00:00 The Hidden Cost00:37 Meet Jennifer Martinez03:44 Imperfect Action Wins06:31 Handling Criticism Gracefully08:47 When You Want To Quit10:10 Surrender And Rebrand13:31 Dehydration Myth Busting16:41 Coffee Stress And Coping20:19 Heat Exposes Depletion22:15 Rapid Restoration In Action26:34 From Sports To Job Sites29:40 Friction And Pushback30:51 Faith Fueled Resilience34:15 Squirt Squad Marketing34:52 Heat Stroke Save Story38:15 Industrial Athletes Mindset39:49 Change Through Feeling Better42:55 Surrender And Service45:26 Doing Right Over Profit48:23 Kidney Health Mineral Message50:22 Where To Find JMARGet the time management system that will make you dangerously effective: https://www.depthbuilder.com/time-management-webinar-sign-up-pageSubscribe to the Monday Morning Hugs Newsletter for thought provoking topics to accelerate your growth: LinkedIn Newsletter Download the free PDF copy of Becoming the Promise You are Intended to Be

I'm probably covering 1% of the world events when we conduct these briefings, so please remember that if I left it out, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's unimportant. Also, remember that I do these briefings quite often, so I might have covered an issue previously that you might not see if you are only watching our most recent videos.

If I were to wait and only post a brief when it's "perfect" I would never post anything at all. So expect some minor errors here and there. If there is a major error or correction that needs to be made, I will post it here in the description, and verbally address it in the next briefing. Also, thanks for reading this far.

It's unsurprising that theatre superstitions would be so plentiful. Intended to bring good luck or ward off bad luck, some of these superstitions have made their way into life outside the theatre. Look at how many people know it's bad luck to name Macbeth. I've grouped these theatre superstitions according to which part of the theatre or performance they refer to. I'm thrilled to also have a special guest for this theatre-based episode, so a big welcome to actor, musician and folklore writer, and contender for one of the loveliest people I know, Mateo Oxley!

Confidence at the arraignment. Caution less than two weeks later. David Anthony Burke's defense team demanded a fast preliminary hearing — then asked for a delay after the discovery started arriving.Blair Berk told the court at the arraignment that the prosecution's case couldn't withstand scrutiny and pushed for a hearing within ten days. But when the files started landing — including wiretap results, testimony from three grand juries, and roughly forty terabytes of digital evidence — defense attorney Marilyn Bednarski asked Judge Charlaine Olmedo to push the hearing to May 26.The defense also tried to get the prosecution's nine-page evidence brief sealed from the public. Berk called it "entirely one-sided" and warned it would taint the jury pool. The judge denied the request.Beth Silverman told the court she'd warned the defense that this volume of evidence was coming. She'd already told witnesses to cancel planned vacations for the original hearing date.Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down what changed behind the scenes, what the wiretap tells us about the investigation's reach, and what to watch for at the May 26 hearing.Part 3 of 3.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

1. Military Morale and Leadership U.S. military morale has significantly strengthened by a commander-in-chief who is willing to risk substantial resources to rescue a single American service member. Trump is contrasted against Clinton (Somalia), Obama (Libya), and Biden (Afghanistan), portraying those administrations as failing to protect troops. The U.S. military ethos: soldiers fight aggressively because they trust that medics, rescue forces, and leadership will risk everything to save them. 2. U.S. Military Culture and “Quiet Math of American Violence” Highlight inter-service respect (Marines, Navy corpsmen, Air Force PJs). American combat effectiveness comes not just from training or equipment, but from certainty that help will arrive under fire, reinforcing battlefield courage. 3. Trump’s Iran Policy and Deterrence Strategy Trump’s foreign policy is: “FAFO” (forceful consequences for aggression) Transactional with allies (support is conditional) Infrastructure strikes are: Intended to cripple military and economic capability Designed to pressure the population to overthrow the regime A deliberate choice not to destroy oil infrastructure to preserve post‑conflict recovery potential 4. War Crimes Accusations and Legal Defense Democrats and media figures are labeling infrastructure strikes as “war crimes.” This is countered by citing the Pentagon’s Law of War Manual, arguing that power generation and infrastructure supporting military operations can be lawful military objectives. 5. View of Iranian Leadership Iran’s rulers are theocratic extremists who: Do not care about civilian suffering Are willing to sacrifice large portions of their population Doubts are expressed about whether economic devastation would deter or influence regime behavior. 6. Immigration and Violent Crime Violent crimes committed by undocumented immigrants are widespread and underreported Democratic policies (sanctuary cities, TPS, opposition to ICE) directly enabled these crimes Several specific criminal cases argue that border enforcement failures have led to American deaths.
