When it seems like all the life is gone from what is important to you, your marriage, your kids, your job, your church do you just talk about how it has not life?  Does your talk reflect what is going on?  If so, you have lost the greatest ability of the modern day believer.  What if you rose above and the nasty speak and found out what God is saying?  Brian Higbee talks about the example that God gave us in someone who saw just dry bones.  In that example we see how to make life where there were only dry dead bones.  Check it out.

12 week : P*rn Recovery // Online Small Group, Starting late August Lead by Aaron Zint w/ 10+ years of experience walking men into Wholeness Sign up here: https://pillar.io/thezints/checkout/002cb6d0-5d07-11f0-a37f-93965abef48bI'm Jason Vallotton, and in this second episode of our Brave Co addiction series, I dive deep with my friend Aaron Zint—one of the most resilient men I've ever known. We trace his journey from childhood s*xual trauma and early exposure to p*rnography, all the way through marriage, relapse, and ultimately, healing. Together, we unpack how addictive patterns form not out of weakness or sin, but out of unresolved pain, disconnection, and a lack of agency.Aaron shares how addiction became his “solution” when life's weight exceeded his capacity to carry it. We talk vulnerability, passivity, and the hard work it takes to confront the pain beneath the behavior. You'll hear how learning to take responsibility, to embrace uncomfortable conversations, and to connect deeply with a community transformed his life—and continues to guide hundreds of men through recovery.This isn't a quick‑fix approach. Instead, it's about lasting transformation: addressing shame, building inner structure, and living within intentional, accountable relationships. Whether you're dealing with p*rnography, alcohol, or another addiction, this episode gives clear tools to identify your real obstacles—and begin building capacity, connection, and courage.Chapters: 00:00 – Introduction & Free Brave Co Courses  02:00 – Why This Series Matters (Addiction Series Overview)  05:00 – What Addiction Really Is: Point A to Point B  06:45 – Aaron's Early Exposure: Abuse & Childhood P*rn  09:00 – Signs You're Addicted Even When You Don't Feel “Addicted”  11:10 – A Spiritual Turning Point & Temporary Sobriety  13:00 – How Passivity Leads to Powerlessness and Addiction  16:00 – P*rn Is Not the Problem—it's How We Cope  18:30 – Building Capacity with Courage, Connection & Community  23:00 – Invitation to “Numb to Known” 12‑Week Group Starting Aug 2025  ABOUT BRAVECOWe live in a time where men are hunting for the truth and looking for the codebook to manhood.

Psalm 95:1-11; John 10:27-28 Tee Feyrer

The privilege of gathering together as God's people is a reminder that our identity is not found in a building or a weekly event, but in the living presence of God within us. Reflecting on my recent visit to the Western Wall in Jerusalem, I was struck by the reality that, while many still pray for the coming of the Messiah, we who are in Christ know that the wall of separation has been torn down. The Holy of Holies is no longer a distant, restricted place—God's Spirit now dwells in us. This is not because of anything we have done, but because of what Jesus accomplished through His sacrifice. The presence of God is not confined to a location; it is our new identity as His people.Understanding that we are the temple of God changes everything. It means that wherever we go, we are on holy ground—not because of the place, but because the Holy God lives in us. This truth is not just theological information; it is deeply practical. It transforms our marriages, our parenting, our work, and even the way we interact with strangers. When we practice the presence of God, we begin to see ourselves not as consumers of spiritual goods, but as co-laborers and living stones, each with a role in God's mission.Our culture often views church as a place to have our needs met, but the biblical vision is so much richer. We are not customers or spectators; we are a spiritual family, a living temple, called to bring glory to God and to serve one another. This calling comes with both privilege and responsibility. We are set apart—made holy by Christ's sacrifice—and called to live differently, to be in the world but not of it. Holiness is not just for pastors or priests; it is the calling of every believer. We are a royal priesthood, offering our lives as living sacrifices.This journey of holiness is not about legalism or condemnation, but about responding to the loving conviction of the Spirit. Sometimes, God gently points out areas where we have compromised or grown numb to the world's influence. In those moments, we are invited to remember the privilege of His presence and to realign our lives with His purposes. The same God who dwelled in the tabernacle and temple now dwells in us, empowering us to live as His holy people.Chapters[00:00] - Welcome[01:00] - Summer Reflections and Family Updates[04:00] - Encountering the Western Wall[09:26] - The Wall of Separation and the Holy of Holies[10:44] - God's Presence Now Dwells in Us[14:09] - Misconceptions About Church[17:40] - EBC's Heart: Discipleship Over Consumerism[20:57] - Church: Not a Place, But an Identity[23:37] - Church Is for God's Glory, Not Ours[25:30] - From Spectators to Co-Laborers[27:32] - The Danger of a Consumer Mentality[30:19] - The Aircraft Carrier Analogy[33:15] - Biblical Metaphors: Temple, Bride, Body, Family[34:26] - The Temple: God's Presence and Our Unity[36:15] - Holiness in a Culture of Compromise[39:57] - The Story of Separation and God's Pursuit[43:28] - The Tabernacle: God Dwelling Among Sinners[45:14] - The Temple's Pattern and Its Fulfillment in Christ[46:52] - Jesus, the Final Sacrifice and the Torn Veil[49:11] - The Urgency of Personal Faith[50:15] - Living as God's Temple[53:10] - The Cloud of God's Presence and Our Mental Health[55:18] - The Call to Holiness and Responsibility[57:08] - You Are Not Your Own: Living Sacrifices[59:21] - Honest Confession and the Spirit's Conviction[01:03:56] - Responding to Conviction Without Condemnation[01:04:51] - Invitation to Prayer and Closing Worship

Technologist Tristan Harris has an urgent question: What if the way we're deploying the world's most powerful technology — artificial intelligence — isn't inevitable, but a choice? In this eye-opening talk, he calls on us to learn from the mistakes of social media's catastrophic rollout and confront the predictable dangers of reckless AI development, offering a “narrow path” where power is matched with responsibility, foresight and wisdom.

In September 2014, internal emails revealed that Jeffrey Epstein was invited to sit in on editorial meetings at Scientific American, one of the most respected science magazines in the world. The invitations were extended by the then–editor-in-chief, and Epstein was scheduled to attend at least two meetings. The emails show that the editor acknowledged Epstein's interest in how scientific topics were selected and covered by the publication, implying that he may have been exploring ways to influence or replicate that process for his own ventures.Although the magazine later stated that Epstein ultimately did not attend those meetings, the fact that he was invited at all raises disturbing questions about how deeply embedded he was within elite scientific and media circles. It underscores his broader pattern of using money, charm, and institutional access to infiltrate areas of influence—including not just academia and research, but now journalism. That an alleged serial trafficker could get within striking distance of editorial control at a legacy science publication speaks volumes about the blind spots of power and the ease with which he operated under the guise of philanthropy.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein Invited to Scientific American Editorial Meetings (businessinsider.com)

Jesus shifts his attention to how we must respond to Him. He rebukes apathetic and dismissive responses, calling instead for repentance. Then He shows us that repentance is actually the acceptance of an invitation to know His Father and to experience a rest that only He can give.

If we were to consider our conscious awareness of the world to be as big as the point of a pin, then the work of sacred plants would be to show us nuances present in and around that pin.To belittle reality, consciousness, awareness, and altered states of perception is not what I am doing here. That's not my job. Bringing a semblance of what we are actually facing, that is my job.Who put us on this pin? Well, we did, of course. Why?You know, it has been 60 years since I entered this pin and I still don't know why we chose such a thing. However, I can tell you that for a while there, I thought the pin was the entire Universe, all of reality, and that humans in this section of the pintop were the only intelligently sentient beings that existed.As I was trying to put words to my thoughts, Larry played a song on his computer. He played it very, very loud, and it was a country song he had “made for me” using an AI.I am not unaware enough to think that this was a “coincidence”. Sometimes, no, all the time, the human collective will steer and dictate where and what is shared about the nature of reality. So, although I had planned to write an in-depth and thorough exploration of the true nature of reality and what sacred plants' role is within our human experience, I will instead “stay on point” and talk about why a person from our modern society decides he or she might become a plant worker. These plant workers call themselves lots of things - “curandero,” “ritualist,” “shaman,” “plant shaman,” etc.But what they call themselves is not that important apart from the nuances of what the label expresses to their clients.In my experience, I have seen plants have a very good grasp of what is not only on the tip of the pin but also on the entirety of the pin. They then go out and find people - workers - who will take them into the world and allow them to touch as many people as possible - the clients.The worker was usually, but not always, a client of a different worker at some point. And the plant is the one that recruits, not the different worker, to whom it will assign the work of bringing a larger viewpoint of reality to the masses.I am always curious as to what makes a person follow the path of the sacred plant. And I am also curious as to what makes a person drop that path altogether, or drop the particular plant that had recruited him or her in the first place, in choice of another.In our podcast, DrivingToTheRez.com, we have an interview with one such person. His insights and reasons for the work are unique to himself, of course, but they are still interesting as a journey of expansion of awareness within the world he moves and experiences life. The interview is in the Wisdom Keeper Hour, so if you want to hear it, do subscribe to it.In the first hour, Larry and I discuss some of the details behind the decision to become a plant worker or reject the invitation wholeheartedly.Larry has the skills, the lineage, the intuition, and the connection to become a plant worker, but he turned it down. Tune in to find out why.

Proverbs 12 opens with a blunt truth: if you hate instruction, you're being stupid. In this episode, we explore what it means to be teachable and how wisdom shapes not only our thoughts and actions, but also the stability of our lives. The righteous seek counsel, pursue justice, and walk in a way that's secure and grounded. We don't get to compartmentalize our lives as followers of Jesus. From our thoughts to our speech to our character, all of life is for Him. Listen in for a timely reflection on godly wisdom and an honest question: Where in your life do you need more stability and security?WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.
