When we give from fullness instead of need, desire naturally begins to flow again.Nicola invites you to notice the subtleties of your own energy:Where do you reach to be reassured, rather than to connect?How can you turn wanting into an authentic invitation that opens your partner, instead of pressuring them?You'll discover: • How “give-to-get” energy quietly shuts down attraction • Why offering from genuine pleasure invites deeper connection • How to create intimacy without pressure or expectation • Ways to initiate desire that feel authentic, playful, and safe • Why confidence in your own pleasure opens your partner's heartDesire deepens when we give without grasping.When you offer from your wholeness, your partner feels free to open in theirs.Subscribe to Nicola's Newsletter for intimacy and communication content, along with exclusive special offers.Connect with Nicola on InstagramSubscribe to Nicola's YouTube Channel Browse Nicola's offerings on her WebsiteBecause we love to reward effort, email a screenshot of your review of Divine Union to info@nicolanavon.com to receive a free gift.

In this episode, Marsha reframes the narrative around resilience, challenging the notion that it is merely a badge of honour or a sign of strength. Instead, she posits that true resilience is about maintaining emotional regulation and resourcefulness in the face of life's inevitable challenges. Throughout the episode, Marsha shares her insights on how to shift perspectives, using a recent example of a client who expressed self-doubt. By flipping the narrative to highlight the client's belief in herself, Marsha illustrates the power of reframing one's story. She emphasizes that resilience is not about relentless grit but about being flexible in thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, allowing for a quicker recovery from setbacks. Marsha introduces the concept of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) as a tool for understanding how our thoughts shape our beliefs and behaviours. She explains that resilience is a state of being that can be cultivated through practice, rather than an inherent trait. By viewing challenges as opportunities for growth, entrepreneurs can develop a more sustainable approach to their journeys.

Invitation to Promise Part 3 The Israelites are Crossing Into New Land Joshua 3:1-5:11 Pastor Lance Hahn Pastor Lance’s Notes

In this episode, we explore the heart of biblical hospitality—what it is, why it matters, and how it reflects the love of Jesus. With the holidays approaching, it's the perfect time to rethink hospitality not as entertaining, but as a spiritual calling to love strangers, serve the poor, and welcome others with open hands and hearts. Drawing from Romans 12:13, Hebrews 13:2, Proverbs 14:31, 1 Peter 4:9, and Matthew 25:40, we'll unpack how hospitality honors God, ministers to others, and even entertains angels unaware. You'll also hear practical tips for spiritual parenting and creative ways to model hospitality in everyday life.Whether you're a seasoned host or someone who feels intimidated by the idea, this episode will encourage you to step out in faith and embrace hospitality as a ministry. Tune in for inspiration, Scripture, and a challenge to love like Jesus—especially when it's inconvenient.Flying Arrow Productions

Episode 374: Mind Over Magic - The Psychology of Rituals with Richard Kaczynski Episode Description We stand in the most mystical time of the year—the season when the veil between worlds grows gossamer thin. From October 31st through November 2nd, we traverse sacred ground through Halloween, Samhain, All Saints' Day, and Día de los Muertos. In this powerful episode, we shift our focus from the hands-on practice of Reiki to explore the psychology behind ritual and magic itself. Join host Terri Ann Heiman as she welcomes Richard Kaczynski, PhD, author of Mind Over Magic: The Psychology of Rituals, for a fascinating conversation about how our beliefs shape our reality and how understanding the psychological mechanisms behind spiritual practices can help us get the most out of them. Guest Bio Richard Kaczynski is a lifetime student and writer on Western Esotericism and an authority on the life and works of Aleister Crowley. He is the author of Perdurabo: The Life of Aleister Crowley and editor of Crowley's The Sword of Song. Richard holds a PhD in psychology with a minor in statistics, and his doctoral dissertation examined the structure and correlates of metaphysical beliefs. His latest book, Mind Over Magic: The Psychology of Rituals, explores how psychological research can illuminate spiritual practices across all traditions. Key Topics Discussed The Journey from Psychology to Magic •Richard's lifelong interest in alternative spiritualities and how it led him to pursue psychology •The disappointment of not finding a "grand unified theory" in graduate school •How 30 years of research revealed a jigsaw puzzle of psychological insights about spiritual practices •The intersection of social psychology, statistics, and esoteric traditions Childhood Mystical Experiences •Richard's childhood encounter with an unexplainable figure in suburban Detroit •How these experiences are actually common parts of human experience, not aberrations •The importance of normalizing conversations about unexplainable phenomena •How transformative experiences can fundamentally change personality and worldview Pattern Recognition and Discernment •Humans as pattern-seeking creatures (Gestalt psychology) •The concept of "agenticity"—seeing agency or cause behind random events •How this cuts both ways: believers may see patterns that aren't there, while skeptics miss patterns that are •Walking the middle path between accepting everything and rejecting everything •The critical importance of discernment in spiritual practice Defining Magic (with a K) •Why Richard chose to spell it "magick" (following Aleister Crowley's distinction from stage magic) •Crowley's definition: "the science and art of causing change to occur in conformity with Will" •Magic as any intentional act—from casting circles to saying grace before meals •How this broad definition encompasses practices across all spiritual traditions •The science versus the art of magical practice The Power of Mindfulness in Practice •Why being present is essential to getting benefits from any spiritual practice •The danger of going through the motions without true engagement •Examples: meditation while distracted, saying prayers automatically, greeting the sun mindlessly •How mindfulness amplifies the effectiveness of ritual work Group Ritual and Synchronous Behavior •Research on synchronous behavior and its psychological effects •How brainwave patterns synchronize when people engage in activities together •The positive evaluation of others when in sync (drum circles, group recitation, etc.) •The unique benefits of both solitary and group practice •Why the real work ultimately happens in private, individual practice= The Psychological Levers of Ritual •How various ritual elements manipulate psychological mechanisms •The role of special garments, implements (bells, wands, tarot cards), sacred space •Creating the "liminal space" where magic happens •Understanding these levers helps us access transformative states more easily •Science explaining what many practitioners have always known Evolution and Transformation •How ritual practices help us evolve into the best version of ourselves •Breaking free from fixed personality traits through transformative experiences •The importance of going within rather than surface living •Recognizing and breaking repetitive patterns •Raising consciousness creates a ripple effect that touches everyone around us The Modern Metaphysical Community •How the internet and social media have made spiritual communities more accessible •The danger of siloing within specific traditions •The importance of attending conferences and events outside your tradition •The challenge of maintaining brick-and-mortar metaphysical spaces •The growth of metaphysical awareness and openness in recent decades Science Meets Spirituality •How psychology validates spiritual practices without explaining away the mystery •The value of scientific understanding for skeptics •Why we don't need to choose between "woo" and science •Using the scientific method to evaluate your own spiritual work •Understanding enhances practice; it doesn't diminish the magic Key Quotes Richard Kaczynski: "By understanding the role of psychology in the practices that we undertake in our spirituality, we can get the most out of those practices. And to the extent to which our spirituality is aimed at inner transformation, raising our consciousness, becoming the best version of ourselves, we can do that more effectively through that understanding." "You're not stuck being who you are right now. You can actually evolve yourself through these practices, and they're transformative." "I don't claim to explain what happens in that liminal space. It's that liminal space where the magic happens. But these psychological tools give us access to that space and make it easier to get there." Terri Ann Heiman: "We each have the power to go within and facilitate our own transformation, and in doing so, we raise not only our consciousness, but create a ripple effect that touches all those around us." Astrological Context This episode airs during a particularly potent time: •The Mystical Portal: October 31st - November 2nd (Halloween, Samhain, All Saints' Day, Día de los Muertos) •Super New Moon in Taurus: November 5th (the Beaver Moon) •Themes of stability, security, grounding, and preparation •Focus on values and material comforts •Time for reflection on what you've built and letting go of what no longer serves •Amplified emotions and powerful access to inner landscape •Mercury Retrograde Shadow: Beginning November 9th through November 20th •Starts in Sagittarius, moves into Scorpio •Expect delays, communication issues, travel hiccups, tech problems •Invitation to slow down, pull energy in, and notice patterns Resources Mentioned Richard Kaczynski's Work •Book: Mind Over Magic: The Psychology of Rituals (Inner Traditions, October 7 release) •Book: Perdurabo: The Life of Aleister Crowley •Website: richardkaczynski.com •Social Media: Facebook, Instagram,  Episode Sponsor Ritual and Shelter •Location: Homewood, Alabama (also online) •Website: ritualshelter.com •Instagram: @RitualShelterShoppe •Pinterest: Ritual+Shelter •Services: Tarot sessions, Reiki, sound bowl healing, crystal healing, witch consultations •Products: Books on energy healing, crystal healing, Reiki, chakras, Akashic Records, shadow work, astrology, earth-based healing, herbal teas, tinctures, crystals, oils Upcoming Events Terri's Offerings: •Free Online Masterclass: "Past, Present, Future: The Akashic Healing Timeline Method for Breaking Cycles" •Date: Saturday, November 8th at 10:00 AM •Focus: Breaking repetitive patterns and cycles •Spiritual Upgrade Breakthrough Call •One-on-one consultation with Terri •Explore what keeps you in repetitive cycles Reiki Rays Healing Summit •Dates: November 7th - 11th •Theme: "10 Gatherings of Light: Rooted in Truth, Returning to the Self" •Format: Free online summit with daily interviews •Option to purchase full library access for $57 (early bird pricing)   Closing Reflection By understanding the psychology behind our spiritual practices, we can truly get the most out of them. When we're seeking inner transformation—raising our consciousness and evolving into the best version of ourselves—this understanding becomes essential. It allows us to engage more intentionally and effectively with the rituals and practices that serve our growth. This is especially potent during this sacred season when the veil between worlds is thin and we're more open to receiving messages, signs, and the deeper truth of our soul's journey. May this season of darkness illuminate your path inward. Thanks for listening! To your Spirit, Terri

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the dance which, from when it reached Britain in the early nineteenth century, revolutionised the relationship between music, literature and people here for the next hundred years. While it may seem formal now, it was the informality and daring that drove its popularity, with couples holding each other as they spun round a room to new lighter music popularised by Johann Strauss, father and son, such as The Blue Danube. Soon the Waltz expanded the creative world in poetry, ballet, novellas and music, from the Ballets Russes of Diaghilev to Moon River and Are You Lonesome Tonight.

SummaryIn this episode of Coffee & Christ, Robert Bolden shares his transformative journey through daily reflection on the word of God. He emphasizes the importance of community among followers of Jesus and the need for open-mindedness in discussions about faith. The conversation delves into teachings from the book of Romans, focusing on acceptance, judgment, and the call to action for believers to be workers in the harvest. Robert invites listeners to join a supportive community that is for you and doesn't judge you.TakeawaysDaily reflection on the word of God is transformative.Community is essential for spiritual growth.There are few true followers of Jesus in the world.Open-mindedness is crucial in discussions about faith.Judgment should be left to God, not individuals.Acceptance of others is a key teaching of Jesus.Reading the Bible can provide daily wisdom and awareness.Being a worker in the harvest requires action and commitment.Disputable matters should not lead to quarrels among believers.Living according to Jesus' teachings brings peace and joy.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Coffee in Christ02:11 The Call to Follow Jesus05:16 Engaging with the Community07:06 Exploring Romans: Acceptance and Faith08:22 The Importance of Open Dialogue11:31 Judgment and Acceptance in Faith13:03 God as the Ultimate Judge14:40 Conclusion and Invitation to CommunityRegister for the Challenge:https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/A08o-y74QIOyHDd6vsq8NgReady to become part of the community? https://lifetransformed.podia.com/message us and we will give you free access.Merchhttps://www.bonfire.com/store/lifetransformed/Schedule a serve call ⁠https://www.picktime.com/LifeTransformed⁠Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/bbolden18?igsh=cnlvdjQ5eGJwZTM%3D&utm_source=qr⁠YouTube⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCx6sszulCUrjodEyThd-rBw⁠Podcasts Join me live from Odd's Cafe here in Asheville…  message me for the exact time.  ⁠https://www.oddscafe.com/⁠Email: robertbolden@thisworldfreedom.com

Etsy's stock just dropped — and I'm breaking down exactly what that means for sellers like us.

Evangelist Scott Caudill- A sermon preached Wednesday Evening, on October 29, 2025.

In Proverbs 21, we're invited to pause and ask, What do you crave? This episode explores how our cravings shape our motives—and ultimately, our lives. The wise show restraint in speech and live with an abundance mindset, giving freely and trusting God. The fool, on the other hand, is consumed by endless craving and a scarcity mindset. Through this lens, we're challenged to examine our own motives: What are we feeding on? Are our desires making us more like Jesus, or pulling us further away?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. Cherie's life-long passion is two-fold: knowing Jesus Christ and making Him known. Author of Found On My Knees, Awake O Sleeper, Rest, Hope, Psalms for Life, and Knowing Your Name, Cherie writes Bible studies for women that will encourage them to know and believe God's Word, equip them to live it, and empower them to take it and transform this generation for Jesus Christ.CONNECT Website: https://neuething.org/Email Subscription link:https://neuething.us2.list-manage.com/subscribe?Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/neuethinginc/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/neuethingGive to Neue Thing: https://neuething.org/give/RESOURCESProverbs: The Wise, The Fool, The WickedKnowing Your NameFound On My Knees: The Journey from Brokenness to BlessingAwake O Sleeper: EphesiansRest: 30 Days of Exploring God's Invitation to RestHope: Tethered to an Unwavering GodPsalms for Life

In Part 3 of our series "The Kingdom of God" Roger Morris emphasizes the importance of recognizing and utilizing the authority given by Jesus Christ. He encourages believers to stop asking God for what He has already granted them the power to accomplish. By sharing personal stories and biblical references Such as Mark 9:35 and Matthew 10:7, Roger illustrates how believers, through Jesus' example, can use their authority to heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and even raise the dead through faith and the Holy Spirit. He also cautions against religious traditions that hinder spiritual growth and advocates for an active, faith-driven life. The episode concludes with a heartfelt invitation to accept Jesus Christ and partner with the ministry.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:   00:00 Understanding Authority in Prayer 00:31 Introduction to Extraordinary Living 00:48 The Gospel of the Kingdom of God 01:08 The Great Commission and Authority 02:21 Personal Testimonies and Miracles 04:21 Challenges and Rejections in Ministry 12:33 Preaching the Gospel Despite Opposition 14:53 A Famous Horse Trainer's Story 15:57 The Power of Faith and Healing 19:58 Understanding the Great Commission 22:32 The Role of the Holy Spirit 27:05 Invitation to Accept Jesus 28:14 Conclusion and Contact Information   Connect with Bill & Roger Ministries: www.billandroger.com   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064668460680

He recently got back from Brazil and shared some incredible stories from his time there, and we talk about the role we play in the Gospel reaching every nation, including unreached people groups.

Send us a Positive Review!Series Title: A Two-Hundred Year Old Mirror: How the Faith Expansion Journey has Always Made Christian Leadership Sweat! [Episode II of II]In this thought-provoking episode, Valerie and guest Casey McFarland dive into part two of their series comparing the dynamics between orthodox leadership and progressive membership in both the early Christian church and in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. They explore the discovery of the Gnostic Gospels and how their divergent beliefs sparked friction with orthodox leaders of the time. The conversation addresses the parallels between historical and contemporary challenges, such as the struggles around authority, the role of women, and the push and pull between rigidity and progressive thought.  The fascinating conclusion:  What we are experiencing is utterly predictable, has happened before, and is more about the frictions around community, cohesion, and the inevitability that some souls much grow...even in a correlated space! Did you hear their announcement about the Latter Day Struggles 2026 trip to Italy?  Listen in and catch up if you didn't!   Previous episodes referenced:  159:  LDS University Students Pressured to Not Ask Hard Questions 160:  Why Scientific & Academic Inquiry IS Spiritual Seeking!Timestamps:00:00 Introduction and Welcome00:20 Comparing Modern and Early Christian Dynamics01:12 Recap of Last Episode01:21 The Gnostic Gospels and Early Christian Writings03:45 Role of Women and Educated in Early Christianity06:40 Evolution of God and Spiritual Development07:38 Historical Parallels in Religious Thought10:38 Authority and Questioning in Faith18:11 Modern Reflections on Historical Religious Tensions24:54 Inclusivity and Development in Faith Traditions26:42 Contradictions in Logic and Authority28:16 The Role of Satan in Early Christian Debates31:30 Personal Experiences and Institutional Authority34:05 The Struggle for Inner Authority and Faith Development38:27 The Tension Between Tradition and Progress50:15 Invitation to Italy: Exploring Early Christian History53:38 Closing Remarks and Future PlansSupport the showSupport the show Listen, Share, Rate & Review EPISODES Friday Episodes Annual Access $89 Friday Episodes Monthly Access $10 Valerie's Support & Processing Groups Gift a Scholarship Download Free Resources Visit our Website

This week, Pastor Brandon continues our Journey Through Ephesians series with one of the most powerful chapters in Scripture — Ephesians 2. Before Christ, we were spiritually dead, slaves to the world, the enemy, and our own flesh. But Paul reminds us that everything changes with two words: “But God.” Through His mercy and grace, we've been raised to life, set free, and created for good works that He prepared for us in advance. This message is a reminder that salvation isn't the end — it's the beginning. We were dead, but now we are alive in Christ! ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 – Welcome to Venture Church Online1:00 – Building expansion and generosity update2:30 – Introduction to Ephesians 23:40 – Reading Ephesians 2:1–105:00 – “Before and After” – setting up the message7:00 – Pastor Brandon's story about shoulder surgery8:30 – Who we were before Jesus10:00 – Spiritually dead and separated from God12:00 – Slaves to the world, the enemy, and the flesh14:40 – The world's pattern and influence16:00 – The deception of the enemy18:00 – Our struggle with the flesh and temptation22:00 – Deserving of wrath — the weight of sin24:30 – “But God” — the turning point26:00 – Made alive with Christ through grace28:00 – Understanding God's immeasurable love and mercy30:00 – Salvation as resurrection and new life32:00 – We are God's handiwork — His masterpiece34:00 – Created for good works prepared in advance36:00 – God's pursuit of those still in the “before”37:30 – The hope of transformation — “But God”39:00 – Invitation to follow Jesus and prayer of salvation40:30 – Closing announcements and worship night preview

When you're raised in a family that trades ghost stories like recipes, you learn the world is never empty. For one young woman, that truth took root inside a narrow Oregon townhouse — a place her family called a crossroads for the dead. For years, spirits came and went: the basement dogs, the Native man who cooled her cheek, the old woman who whispered “that's nice” right beside her ear. But the most terrifying presence never left. It lingered at the top of the stairs, knocking politely in threes — always waiting to be invited in. When her cat refused to enter her room, when the blankets dipped with unseen footsteps, when a man's shape pressed across her chest in the dark — she realized the haunting had learned her rhythms. Even grief seemed to feed it. Cleansings, crosses, and courage only kept it at bay for a while. And sometimes, when the night goes still enough, she can still feel the townhouse breathe back. Because some hauntings don't scream or rage — they wait, patiently, for you to speak first. #RealGhostStoriesOnline #TrueHaunting #PoliteGhost #HauntedTownhouse #SupernaturalStories #SleepParalysis #ThreeKnocks #RealGhostStory #Ghosts #ParanormalActivity #FamilyHaunting #Unexplained Love real ghost stories?

Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — Between Steph's seduction of Chet after dressing him in her dead husband's clothes, and feral ghouls that are basically rage virus zombies, and JELL-O pie, we were smiling ear-to-ear at this week's episode.
