This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! PART TWOWhat if, from a young age, you realized you could see and hear the dead—but no one else around you could? For Andy Moore, this was reality. As a child, Andy quickly discovered that he could perceive spirits of those who had passed on to the other side. While his friends and family lived in an ordinary world, Andy's was filled with whispers, shadows, and presences that others could not see.At first, the gift felt like a curse. Isolating and overwhelming, it pushed him to try and block out the voices of the dead. But no matter how hard he tried, the spirits remained. Over time, Andy realized his ability wasn't meant to terrify him—it was meant to guide him. By embracing what he once feared, Andy uncovered the positive impact he could make on the lives of strangers, delivering comfort, validation, and connection that only a medium can provide.In this chilling yet inspiring episode of The Grave Talks, Andy Moore shares his journey of transformation—from frightened child to gifted spirit communicator.

Four stories today — all connected to your NIO positionand the broader Chinese EV investment thesis.William Li spoke at the China Auto Chongqing Summit onJune 13th and said something most CEOs would never saypublicly. China's domestic auto retail sales declined19.5% year over year in the first five months of 2026.Early June accelerated to down 22%. The full year couldfall 15-20%. He called this the most brutal competitiveenvironment he's faced since entering the industry.Then he reaffirmed NIO will grow 40-50% this year anyway.That's not a contradiction. China's passenger vehicleownership has reached 370 million units — the market hasshifted from growth to replacement demand. Saturatedmarkets reward brands with real differentiation andpunish brands that competed on price alone. NIO spent68.8 billion yuan on R&D and 20 billion yuan on chargingand battery swap infrastructure. The ES8 is number onelarge SUV in China for six consecutive months. The ES9has a 17-week queue. The Firefly outsells Mini and Smartcombined. NIO designed itself for this exact moment.From the Chinese internet — are American automakersisolating themselves from the world? Chinese EVs face102.5% tariffs in the US but are winning Canada, Europe,Southeast Asia, and the Middle East simultaneously.China and Canada just agreed to allow 49,000 Chinesevehicles in at reduced tariffs. The US consumer is beingpriced out of the world's most competitively priced EVs.The security arguments are real — but so is the marketoutcome. US auto faces higher costs and fewer globalopportunities while Chinese brands expand everywhere else.The Pentagon added NIO to its Chinese military companieslist on June 9th. NIO called it unjustified and threatenedlegal action. This is not a sanctions list and does notrestrict trading of NIO securities. Some institutionalmandates force selling — that's real but finite pressure.18 analysts have buy ratings. The average price targetimplies 27% upside. NIO's AGM is June 24th — nine daysfrom now. That's the meeting that actually matters.China's NEV penetration rate hit 62.9% in May. Purebattery electric vehicles were 42.2% of all new car sales.William Li said the transition is irreversible. Six outof ten new cars sold in China are electric or hybrid.That's not a trend anymore. That's a completed transition.NIO is built for the world that already exists.

"You can't pour from an empty cup." It's a phrase that floods social media feeds and self-care conversations — and on the surface, it sounds reasonable. But in this episode, Emily Rose Massey gently but boldly challenges the ideology beneath it. Because if we wait until our cup is perfectly full before we give to others, we may wait forever — and miss the profound, counter-cultural beauty of a life lived in total dependence on God's grace. The Christian life, as modeled by Jesus Himself, is not one of self-preservation first. It is one of sacrifice, selflessness, and humility. Philippians 2:3-4 calls us to regard others as more important than ourselves — not from a place of overflow, but from a place of surrender. Jesus didn't wait until conditions were ideal. He stepped down from a heavenly throne, emptied Himself, took the form of a servant, and gave everything. Emily invites us to ask a searching question: what do we reach for when we feel like we're running on empty? The world offers endless distractions and temporary fixes — but God may be inviting us to something better. When we come to the end of our own strength, His strength can finally shine through. And an empty cup, offered to God in humility, may be exactly what He uses to fill others and conform us into the image of Christ. Today's Bible Verse "Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others." — Philippians 2:3-4, NASB Ponder Today The Christian life is one of sacrifice, not self-preservation. Jesus is our model — and He did not wait until He was "full" before giving. He emptied Himself completely, and in doing so, showed us the way of true humility. Weakness is not a barrier to serving others — it is an invitation to depend on God. When we reach the end of our own strength, His strength has room to shine. Our limitations are not obstacles to His work; they are the very conditions He works through (2 Corinthians 12:9). What you reach for when you're running on empty reveals what you truly trust. Worldly distractions and temporary fixes will never truly fill you. God wants to be your first stop, not your last resort. Vulnerability with others is an act of love, not weakness. Isolating ourselves when we're struggling robs the Body of Christ of the opportunity to serve us — and us of the opportunity to experience God's grace through community. God gives grace to the humble. When we stop striving to fill our own cup and bow before Him in our emptiness, He meets us there — with the grace, strength, and renewal we could never manufacture on our own (James 4:6). A Prayer for You Today Heavenly Father, there are so many days when I feel drained and weak — but I'm learning that is exactly where You want me, so I can fully rely on Your strength and not my own. You don't call me to grit my teeth and bear it. You call me to live by the power of Your Spirit, who empowers me to walk in obedience and humility. Thank You for showing me what great sacrifice looks like. Christ laid down His life for me — may I live to lay down my life for Him by serving others and preferring others above myself. In Jesus' name, Amen. Don't Miss an Episode If today's prayer shifted your perspective from self-reliance to surrender, we'd love to stay connected.

A German-American couple, Christian and Melissa Steffen, kept their three young children—a 10-year-old and 8-year-old twins—locked inside their villa in Spain for nearly four years due to an extreme fear of COVID. The children endured squalid conditions—including a room piled with used diapers—never left the house, had no outside contact, and received no medical care, resulting in severe physical and developmental issues such as difficulty walking, hunched postures, and bowel control problems.The children were discovered after a neighbor's suspicions led to a police raid, and the parents were convicted of habitual psychological violence and family abandonment. They received 28-month prison sentences and lost custody. They were also banned from approaching their children and ordered to pay compensation.

Get the notes!Can True Christians Drift Away? Understating New Covenant Accountability in Hebrews 2:1–4The book of Hebrews contains some of the most profound christological declarations in all of Holy Scripture, but it also contains some of the most sobering warnings. In Chapter 1, the text establishes the supreme, uncreated deity of Jesus Christ. He is revealed as the exact representation of the Father's essence, the immortal Architect of the cosmos, and the Sovereign whose throne is everlasting.However, immediately following this grand opening, the inspired author abruptly pauses the doctrinal discourse. Before detailing the high-priestly necessity of Christ's humanity, he introduces the first of five major hortatory warnings found in the epistle.This systematic study guide explores the critical mechanics of spiritual drift, reconciles the text's urgent warnings with the absolute reality of eternal security, and unpacks the powerful a fortiori (lesser-to-greater) argument constructed to demonstrate New Covenant hyper-accountability.I. The Doctrinal Grounding of Exhortation (Hebrews 2:1)Hebrews 2:1 — "For this reason we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away from it." A. The Conjunction of NecessityThe opening phrase “For this reason” functions as an architectural hinge point linking christian duty directly to the grand disclosures of Chapter 1. It establishes a permanent principle for the church: practical christian responsibility is always anchored in the objective reality of who Jesus Christ is. Because the Son is uncreated God and King, the audience bears a heightened obligation to guard His specific revelation.B. The Mandate for Urgent GuardingThe text issues a strict command to pay “much closer attention” to the received apostolic message. This identifies the primary defense against spiritual decay as continuous, purposeful immersion in the truth of the Gospel. Spiritual decline is resisted not by human willpower alone, but by actively anchoring the mind to christological truth.II. Exegesis of the Verbal Phenomenon: “Drift Away”A. Linguistic ProfilingThe text implements the specific Greek verbal form pararuomen (παραρυῶμεν). This word is classified as a hapax legomenon—occurring only this single time within the entire text of the Greek New Testament. The author chose this rare verbal marker intentionally to disrupt casual reading, forcing the student to contemplate the unique mechanical danger of spiritual sliding.B. The Nautical MetaphorIn classical Greek maritime literature, pararuomen outlines the behavior of an unanchored sailing vessel carried past its safe destination by local tides and prevailing currents. The vessel does not turn away in sudden, violent mutiny; it simply floats past its safe harbor because the crew is passive and unmonitored. This illustrates that spiritual decay within the church is rarely a deliberate departure, but rather a slow, unperceived slide into compromise caused by unresisted cultural currents.III. Theological Harmonization: Drift vs. Eternal SecurityA. Refutation of the Loss-of-Salvation PremiseArminian interpretations routinely isolate the warning language of Hebrews to claim that a true, regenerated believer can forfeit their salvation and experience ultimate condemnation. Isolating the text in this manner creates an artificial contradiction with the clear, systematic unity of the New Testament.B. The Uncompromising Blueprint of Eternal SecurityUnder the absolute blueprints of John 6:37–39, true believers are designated as a corporate love-gift from the Father to the Son. The preservation of the believer is maintained entirely by the omnipotent keeping power of Jesus Christ, who promises to lose absolutely none of those entrusted to Him, but to raise every single one on the final day. Christ performs this keeping ministry explicitly because it is the unalterable, sovereign will of the Father.C. The Nature of Salvation as an Unearned GiftSynthesizing this text with Ephesians 2:8–9 demonstrates that salvation is by grace through faith—a free gift completely detached from human works. Because human effort did not earn salvation initially, human weakness cannot dissolve it. Salvation belongs exclusively to the Lord.

Cindy Esliger tackles the reality of why avoiding difficult workplace interactions often makes things worse. She describes the familiar experience of conversations that make our stomachs drop, and our minds go blank, especially when dealing with colleagues who undermine or take credit for our work. Cindy explains that workplace bullying often shows up in subtle ways like interruptions, exclusion, and microaggressions, and it tends to continue when it is not addressed. She emphasizes that learning to confront these behaviors calmly and strategically, rather than ignoring them, is what shifts how others perceive and treat us.  She walks through the true cost of staying silent, from burnout and loss of credibility to becoming seen as someone who can be pushed around. Cindy outlines seven common behaviors that make these situations worse: 1. Apologizing excessively, 2. Overexplaining decisions, 3. Accepting microaggressive compliments, 4. Letting dismissive behavior slide, 5. Failing to document patterns of exclusion or bias, 6. Isolating instead of building alliances, and 7. Matching unprofessional behavior. Instead of suppressing emotions or ignoring the problem, she encourages a more strategic approach that focuses on choosing when to speak up and documenting patterns so that responses are intentional rather than reactive. Cindy shares her framework for emotional rehearsal, a practical way to prepare for tough conversations in advance. She breaks it into four steps: 1. Recognize our triggers, 2. Examine the thought patterns underneath triggers, 3. Practice the conversation in advance, and 4. Use a mindfulness framework in the actual moment. Cindy reinforces that discomfort is not a sign that something is wrong, but a sign of growth. By preparing ahead of time, professionals can respond instead of react and build real confidence through action. The goal is not to control others, but to take ownership of our responses, boundaries, and professional presence.

Episode Title: Anything is PossibleFeaturing: RussellIn this powerful episode of the Sober Coffee podcast, Mike and Glenn sit down with Russell to explore the paradox of finding victory through surrender. Russell's journey is a raw look at the grit required to move from the "addictive hell" of living under a bridge to a life of purpose, connection, and joy.The Road to SurrenderFor years, Russell battled a trifecta of addiction, depression, and PTSD. Despite multiple stints in rehab, he realized he was never "fearless and thorough" about his recovery. It wasn't until he hit his absolute floor—homeless and living under a bridge—that he finally stopped fighting and started surrendering.On January 5th, 2022, everything changed. Russell stopped going through the motions and started "buying into the hope" offered by those who walked the path before him.Key Takeaways & Lessons:The Anatomy of a Relapse: Russell identifies the four red flags that led to his past slips:Stopping meeting attendance.Ceasing communication with his Higher Power.Walking away from service.Isolating from his community.The Discipline of Freedom: To maintain his sobriety today, Russell follows a disciplined daily routine that includes morning prayer, staying connected to his support network, consistent meetings, and active service projects.Feelings Over Numbling: A major milestone in his recovery has been learning to "enjoy feeling his feelings" rather than silencing them with a drink.The Big Lie: Russell discusses how he learned to ignore the voice of addiction that claims a drink will make a bad day better.Notable Quotes:"I love life today versus going through the motions of addictive hell.""You can be as free as you want to be.""AA doesn't work for people who don't thoroughly work it."Looking ForwardToday, Russell is a man transformed. He is an active family man, a dedicated student pursuing a Computer Engineering degree, and a testament to the fact that you can walk with your head held high regardless of your past. His message to the "sober curious" is simple: Keep coming back until it works for you.

Mark Friese, a long-time criminal defense attorney who has worked some high-profile cases, including serving as disgraced former lawmaker Ray Holmberg's attorney, has been appointed to the North Dakota Supreme Court by Gov. Kelly Armstrong. Why does he want to serve on the court? "It's a lot easier to be critical of the court when you're sitting on the opposite side of the table," he told us on this episode of Plain Talk. "I'm hopeful that I can impact some change and offer a perspective that's, quite frankly, not been held by the court previously." Friese will be the only member of the Supreme Court with a background in criminal defense. He also touted his background as a former police officer, and working in the military courts as a member of the North Dakota National Guard, as unique experiences he can bring to the bench. While expressing deep respect for the current justices, he also had some criticism.  "There are instances where the court has not been consistent in its rationale, consistent in its reasoning," he said. "I think practitioners need to be able to rely on those decisions and know how those decisions are going to come down, and we haven't seen that universally from our court." In the past the Supreme Court has pushed toward allowing more digital access to court records, but it's a project that hasn't been completed yet. Friese said he thinks public access is important, but also noted that information contained in court records can be exploited for fraud and other nefarious reasons. "There has to be a careful balance. The public has a right to know. You have a right to sit in the courtroom. You have a right to access the docket," he said. "But the danger exists when those court records are used for improper purposes." He also said that serving on the bench will be "isolating" in a way, as he will no longer be able to serve clients, and he won't be able to speak as freely publicly about issues he's passionate about. "I had a great big box full of cards and letters and thank you notes from clients and their families for helping them through difficult times. I'm really going to miss that aspect of practice," he said. "Being on the court is going to be isolating. I won't be able to speak as openly and publicly as I have in the past on issues." Also on this episode, co-host Chad Oban and I discussed the upcoming Democratic-NPL and NDGOP conventions, the NDGOP's proposed rule to fine disloyal members, the state of North Dakota's legislative races, and we responded to some listener feedback.

Protecting without isolating How to raise our children Gurgaon Chaitanya Charan by Exploring mindfulness, yoga and spirituality

In a world where we're told to carry our entire lives in our pockets, we've reached a strange tipping point where the very devices meant to connect us have become windows into our private lives for those who wish us harm. It's no longer a matter of looking for the "shady" corners of the internet; today, the threats come from nation-state actors, advanced AI, and even the people we think we're hiring. We are living in an era where the most sophisticated hackers aren't just trying to break into your phone, they're trying to move into your business by pretending to be your best employee. Joining the conversation today is Jared Shepard, an innovative industry leader and the CEO of Hypori. A U.S. Army veteran with over 20 years of experience, Jared's journey is far from typical; he went from being a high school dropout to serving as a sniper and eventually becoming the lead technical planner for the Army's Third Corps. He is also the founder of Intelligent Waves and the chair of the nonprofit Warriors Ethos, bringing a perspective shaped by years of advising technologists in active war zones. We're going to dive deep into why Jared believes everything you own should be considered already compromised and why that realization is the first step toward true security. From the terrifying reality of his own 401k being stolen via identity theft to the future of "dumb terminals" that protect your privacy by storing nothing at all, this discussion challenges the status quo. We'll explore how to navigate a future where AI can fake your identity in real-time and why the ultimate battle in cybersecurity isn't against a specific country, but against our own human tendency toward laziness. Show Notes: [[02:12] Jared Shepard of Hypori is here to discuss how modern cyber threats actually play out in real life. [04:48] How modern attacks unfold slowly instead of triggering obvious alarms. [05:55] Why many victims don't realize anything is wrong until secondary systems start failing. [07:56] What identity theft looks like when accounts are targeted methodically over time. [08:48] How attackers prioritize persistence and access over immediate financial gain. [10:32] A real attempt to take over long-term financial accounts and how it surfaced. [13:07] Why financial institutions often respond late even when fraud is already underway. [15:44] The limits of traditional identity verification in an AI-driven threat environment. [16:52] Why layered authentication still fails when underlying identity data is compromised. [18:21] Deepfakes, voice cloning, and why video calls no longer prove much. [20:57] How laptop farms are used to bypass hiring controls and internal access checks. [22:18] Why insider-style access is increasingly coming from outside the organization. [23:33] Why some companies are quietly bringing back in-person steps for sensitive roles. [26:09] SIM farms, mobile identity abuse, and how scale changes detection. [28:47] The growing tension between personal privacy and corporate device control. [31:22] Why assuming device compromise changes everything downstream. [33:58] Isolating data from endpoints instead of trying to secure the device itself. [35:12] How moving compute and data off the endpoint reduces exposure without requiring device monitoring. [36:35] How pixel-only access limits data exposure even on compromised hardware. [39:11] Why AI training data introduces new security and poisoning risks. [41:46] Why recovery planning is often overlooked until it's too late. [44:18] The problem with victim-blaming and how it distorts security responses. [46:52] Why layered defenses matter more than any single tool or platform. [47:58] What practical preparation looks like for individuals, not just enterprises. [49:12] Rethinking privacy as controlled access rather than total lock-down. Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

Joining me once again is Vanessa Beeley, here to follow up yesterday's interview with a more in-depth discussion on those issues as well the topics of censorship, Epstein, and the transgender movement. Overall, we focus on the rapidly encroaching globalist agenda, but without ignoring one of the most relevant, influential, and often omitted aspects of that discussion: Zionism. We also discuss the truth about ISIS and its US/Israeli connections, the way it is being used to destabilize and divide, and the weaponization of immigration alongside the demonization of Muslims at large.  !function(r,u,m,b,l,e){r._Rumble=b,r[b]||(r[b]=function(){(r[b]._=r[b]._||[]).push(arguments);if(r[b]._.length==1){l=u.createElement(m),e=u.getElementsByTagName(m)[0],l.async=1,l.src="https://rumble.com/embedJS/u2q643"+(arguments[1].video?'.'+arguments[1].video:'')+"/?url="+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+"&args="+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify([].slice.apply(arguments))),e.parentNode.insertBefore(l,e)}})}(window, document, "script", "Rumble");   Rumble("play", {"video":"v714no6","div":"rumble_v714no6"}); Source Links: The Wall Will Fall | Where mainstream media fears to tread (1) Vanessa Beeley (@VanessaBeeley) / X Vanessa Beeley | Substack New Tab (1) Attorney General Pamela Bondi on X: "President Trump is leading the most transparent administration in American history.

In this episode, I talk about building community - both through hoarding-specific peer groups, online spaces, as well as simply nurturing friendships outside the home. I share practical ways to reconnect, set boundaries, and remind yourself that you deserve care and companionship, whatever your home looks like. The Relationship Between Hoarding and Isolation How hoarding and isolation often accompany each other Feelings of shame and concern about being misunderstood Secrecy around hoarding, even from friends Impact of loneliness on motivation and self-worth The fundamental human need for connection Finding Community: Hoarding-Specific Support Benefits of speaking with others who “get” hoarding Relief and authenticity in hoarding-focused communities Misunderstandings and stigma around hoarding in general society Shared language and understanding in dedicated groups Types of Hoarding Communities Peer support groups (both for people who hoard and for their loved ones) Differences between in-person and online groups Dehoarding accountability Zoom groups run by the host Therapy groups led by professionals Online forums, social media groups, and subreddits Choosing a Support Group and Overcoming Barriers The process of finding the right group for your needs Not all groups will fit; trial and error is normal Common barriers: fear of judgment, privacy concerns, and feeling overwhelmed Exploring online versus in-person options based on comfort and access Managing triggers and emotional challenges when joining a group Broadening Community Beyond Hoarding Importance of connection outside of the hoarding context How hoarding can lead to progressive social isolation Ways to set boundaries while still building relationships Alternative Sources of Community & Connection Joining hobby or interest-based groups (gardening, book clubs, crafts, etc.) Attending classes and workshops (in-person or online) Volunteering for shared causes and the benefits it offers Engaging in outdoor activity groups for physical and mental health Involvement in faith communities (acknowledging varied experiences) Nurturing and Rekindling Friendships The value of maintaining and nurturing friendships Strategies for reconnecting with old friends (acknowledging awkwardness) Personal anecdotes demonstrating successful reconnection Maintaining and Deepening Existing Friendships Creative ways of keeping in touch (memes, postcards, regular outings) Showing care and interest without inviting people into your home Importance of honesty about personal limitations Navigating difficult moments with friends through gentle outreach Building New Friendships The importance of patience and consistent small efforts Transitioning from casual acquaintance to meaningful connection Reciprocity and mutual engagement as key to growing relationships Natural pace of friendship development The Value of Self-Compassion Being a good friend to yourself while seeking social connections Avoiding self-blame and catastrophic thinking Recognising your own worth despite challenges related to hoarding Taking Small Steps Toward Connection Encouragement to take actionable, manageable steps to build community Celebrating small efforts toward greater connection Realistic expectations about gradual progress Suggestions for relevant previous podcast episodes on loneliness, accountability, and community Links Podcast ep 200: Things I wish I'd known: a letter to Episode One Me Podcast ep 130: Loneliness and hoarding with Vassia Sarantopoulou: build human connections and combat hoarding-related shame Podcast ep 138: The Accountability Effect: Accountability, encouragement and mutual support when tackling hoarding and dehoarding Come to a Dehoarding Accountability Zoom session: Accountability Booking Form Website: Overcome Compulsive Hoarding Become a Dehoarding Darling Submit a topic for the podcast to cover Questions to ask when dehoarding: https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/podquestions Instagram: @thathoarderpodcast Twitter: @ThatHoarder Mastodon: @ThatHoarder@mastodon.online TikTok: @thathoarderpodcast Facebook: Overcome Compulsive Hoarding with That Hoarder Pinterest: That Hoarder YouTube: Overcome Compulsive Hoarding with That Hoarder Reddit: Overcome Compulsive Hoarding with That Hoarder subreddit Help out: Support this project Sponsor the podcast Subscribe to the podcast Subscribe to the podcast here

‘To isolate Israel or to punish Israel will be the most irresponsible and unacceptable step to boycott Israel, for example. I think it's a huge mistake, because what we need is a dialogue.'Tim Franks speaks to Israeli author David Grossman about the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza as concerns grow over the increasingly fragile ceasefire. Grossman is one of Israel's most prominent writers, and since publishing his first novel over forty years ago, his works have been translated into 36 languages. He's won numerous literary awards over the years, including the Man Booker International Prize in 2017. Many of his works deal with the issues associated with Israel and Palestine.The 71-year-old is also well-known as a peace activist, and has been a vocal, long-standing critic of the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu - expressing concern over the direction the country is being led in.In an interview with the Italian newspaper La Repubblica in August, Grossman described Israel's actions in Gaza as ‘genocide', lamenting that he had been forced to reach that conclusion by the ongoing military campaign that began following the events of October 7.Thank you to the Newshour team for their help in making this programme.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! What if, from a young age, you realized you could see and hear the dead—but no one else around you could? For Andy Moore, this was reality. As a child, Andy quickly discovered that he could perceive spirits of those who had passed on to the other side. While his friends and family lived in an ordinary world, Andy's was filled with whispers, shadows, and presences that others could not see. At first, the gift felt like a curse. Isolating and overwhelming, it pushed him to try and block out the voices of the dead. But no matter how hard he tried, the spirits remained. Over time, Andy realized his ability wasn't meant to terrify him—it was meant to guide him. By embracing what he once feared, Andy uncovered the positive impact he could make on the lives of strangers, delivering comfort, validation, and connection that only a medium can provide. In this chilling yet inspiring episode of The Grave Talks, Andy Moore shares his journey of transformation—from frightened child to gifted spirit communicator. His story offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of someone living with extraordinary psychic abilities.

Over the years, I’ve encouraged and prayed for many battling loneliness for various reasons: nursing home residents whose family members don’t visit, the widow who spends her days outside so as not to be alone in her empty house, ministry leaders who don’t have anyone to confide in, and homeless people who feel ignored and alone. Loneliness can strike anyone at any time. Isolating during the pandemic unfortunately, only compounded those feelings of loneliness for many. The US Surgeon General released an advisory in May 2023 alerting the public about the epidemic of loneliness. About half of U.S. adults say they’ve experienced loneliness, which can be as deadly as smoking a dozen cigarettes daily, according to the advisory. When Moses was getting ready to pass the torch to his successor Joshua, he wanted to make sure the Israelites knew they wouldn’t be facing any battles alone as they entered the promised land: “Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you” (Deuteronomy 31:6). He also reminded their new leader, Joshua, that “the Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you” (v. 8). And he concluded with words that can encourage us today. “Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged” (v. 8). When we’re facing loneliness, let’s take comfort in knowing that God will never leave or forsake us.
