This week's No Doubt About It Podcast is loaded with breaking news, sharp analysis, and a little behind-the-scenes from our family trip to Washington, D.C.New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham is sending the National Guard into another city—this time Espanola—just months after doing the same in Albuquerque. We actually applaud the decision… but here's the kicker: she's blasting President Trump for sending the Guard into Washington, D.C. We take the gloves off and expose the blatant political hypocrisy.Mark lays out why good leaders make the right call no matter the politics, and why too many in D.C. would rather leave citizens unsafe than work with a president they oppose. We also dismantle the ridiculous claim from the left that “crime is going down in DC” as a reason not to bring in the Guard—showing how it's as false as saying “the border is secure” or “inflation isn't a problem.”But Republicans aren't off the hook either. The White House insists people shouldn't be worried about inflation. We explain why that's politically unwise when Americans are hurting, and how better messaging could help voters understand the real solutions. We've got polling on Trump's handling of inflation, party favorability, and why keeping the House could be an uphill climb for Republicans.Plus—Showboat Sam Bregman is heading to Carlsbad to raise money from oil and gas. Mark predicts which Dallas-style costume Sam might show up in to charm donors. And Krysty takes you inside our trip to Washington, D.C., including dropping Ava off at Liberty University… and the surprisingly intense process of decorating a girls' dorm room.Website: https://www.nodoubtaboutitpodcast.com/Twitter: @nodoubtpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/NoDoubtAboutItPod/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markronchettinm/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D

Jinger Duggar Vuolo and Sadie actually have a lot in common — from growing up on hit reality TV shows to now being married, raising kids, and running their own podcasts. Jinger opens up about how her view of God totally shifted from when she was younger and taught that stepping outside this super strict set of rules meant God would smite her — literally. She tells Sadie she used to live in constant fear, thinking God was out to get her for stuff she didn't even realize was “wrong.” Basically, she was living in straight-up superstition. But once she discovered who God really is — just, not judgmental — her whole faith journey took a turn. Oh, and the wildest part? They get into what it's actually like being a young girl getting marriage proposals (yep, actual proposals) from guys and even moms (on behalf of their sons) from all over the world.

Healing from trauma is a long and involved process — and it's not just Satanic ritual abuse that can cause deep wounds. Things like everyday rejections or difficulties can build up and create trauma effects too. Those minor wounds add up and, if not healed or addressed through the love of Christ, can become footholds for the Enemy in your soul.In this episode of the Revelations Podcast, host Reagan Kramer sits down for part two of an eye-opening conversation with Michelle Young and her daughter Samantha Miley. Together, they dive deep into the topic of triggers and trauma—ranging from the extreme cases of Satanic ritual abuse (SRA) to the more everyday emotional triggers in marriage and relationships that many people experience. This discussion is essential because it sheds light on the often misunderstood connection between deliverance and emotional trauma, offering listeners a path to deeper healing through the power of Christ.This episode is for all who suffer — whether from the grievous wounds of demonic influence and Satanic ritual abuse, or from the sufferings of daily trials. This is a call that goes out to the lost, the broken, and the hurt: God loves you and will heal you.Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode:Gain a deeper understanding of how trauma can fragment your soul and how God's love and healing can restore those broken pieces.Understand the spiritual principles behind emotional triggers and the importance of surrender, repentance, and holiness in overcoming deep-seated wounds.Learn practical steps to invite Yeshua into your healing journey, allowing Him to transform your pain and bring true freedom.Become Part of Our Mission!

Or that somebody said something mean to you and you didn't think you were good enough — or an earthquake.”You can experience brokenheartedness in your everyday life too, like going to bed angry. This gives the Enemy a foothold in your heart.Samantha shares a personal story about her daughter's sensitivity and how it gave the Enemy an opening.Addressing these issues is important early on to prevent long-term damage in children.However, not all trauma is extreme, and even small, unresolved issues can build up over time and cause significant emotional pain.[09:43] The Role of the Church in Healing Satanic Ritual AbuseThe church is important in providing healing and deliverance especially when many people feel rejected or unheard in church settings.Many Christians struggle with the idea of being affected by demons despite being saved from Satanic ritual abuse — although salvation came unto them, they have yet to heal.In the same vein, there's a critical difference between the regeneration of the spirit and the healing of the soul.Christians need to understand that healing is not a one-time event. It's a process.[15:36] Practical Steps for Healing and Surrender to ChristAs Christians, we must remember the power that comes from surrendering to Christ and immersing ourselves in prayer and the Word.Being prayerful and seeking guidance from the Holy Spirit are some of the most powerful tools for us to receive true healing.[18:25] Samantha: “You can't just expect the Spirit to just fall on, the Holy Spirit to just do everything. You have got to take initiative and surrender to the Lord.”Healing doesn't come from nothing — it's hard work. It requires us to take the initiative to heal ourselves as well.We need a genuine desire for Jesus and the willingness to do the difficult work that goes into healing your soul.[20:27] The Importance of Identity and Whose We AreIt is important to recognize your identity in Christ and understand who we belong to.David, despite his sins, was remembered for being a man after God's own heart because of his desire for the Lord.There is a need for discipleship and understanding the word to grasp one's identity in Christ.[29:43] Michelle: “I want you to know that when someone finally recognizes who they are and whose they are, this is one of the key things. Even while Daniel was in Babylon, Daniel never forgot who he was.”As Christians, it's our God-given obligation to love others and bear witness to the love of Jesus.[30:38] The Role of the Holy Spirit in HealingMichelle discusses the role of the Holy Spirit in healing and the importance of being open to His guidance.One story to remember in the Bible is that of the woman at the well, who, due to her faith, was transformed and healed by the love of Jesus.There's a need for genuine love and support from the Church to help others heal.Receiving healing lets a person help others in turn.The Church becomes the bridge between brokenness and healing.[36:28] Holiness and RepentanceThe role of the church in addressing triggers lies in providing healing for those who are struggling.The soul needs to walk in the power and authority of God and Christ — something a person's Church must understand.Healing requires holiness and repentance; part of a true desire for God comes from overcoming and repenting our sins.Healing comes from a place of genuine love and support, especially from the Church.Overcoming the deep wounds of Satanic ritual abuse requires addressing the root causes behind a person's emotional pain and trauma.[51:28] Closing Prayer and EncouragementThrough God's guidance and protection, we can overcome all adversity, even that which comes from the Enemy.May you remember to be a part of the remnant Church.Keep true to God's commandments and love.About MichelleMichelle Young is a devoted servant of God, with over 30 years of experience in discipling and counseling those seeking spiritual healing and freedom.

It's a process.[18:45] The Role of the Holy Spirit in Healing Your HeartThe book of Isaiah proclaims Jesus' mission to heal the brokenhearted and proclaim liberty to the captives.The Hebrew word for soul is the same as the word for heart — heal the heart, and you heal the soul. [20:07] Samantha: “If we follow Yeshua, how do we heal the brokenhearted?...How do we proclaim liberty to the captive? So there's healing of the soul.” Healing the soul allows faithful Christians to walk in victory and power.[22:07] Understanding Triggers and Their ImpactA trigger is something or someone that reminds us of past trauma, particularly unresolved pain.A memory, feeling, or event can pull someone back to the moment of their trauma, “triggering” what they felt at the time; hence the term “trauma triggers”.Partners in marriage need to understand each other's trauma triggers to avoid — or even heal — conflicts between them.Michelle shares an example of a survivor of satanic ritual abuse whose trauma triggers were specific words.Christians should not allow triggers to control them but seek help and healing to respond as Yeshua would.[34:24] Medication, Healing, and the Word of GodReagan shares her personal experience with anxiety and the decision to avoid medication in favor of healing through the Word of God.Medication isn't the only answer to managing your trauma triggers. It's more important to address the root cause.Healing is a process. Medication can help, but Christians should not be quick to resort to it without addressing the underlying issues.Discipleship and counseling are powerful tools in the healing process. [38:39] The Fragmentation of the SoulSoul fragmentation is where parts of the soul detach to cope with intolerable trauma.Michelle tells the story of a child who fragments their soul to cope with abuse, explaining how this coping mechanism helps them survive.True healing is achieved when a Christian can integrate the fragmented parts of her soul.Only Yeshua can integrate the fragmented parts of the soul and heal the wounds.[48:10] The Impact of Satanic Ritual Abuse on the SoulMichelle shares a story of a survivor of satanic ritual abuse who was triggered by certain words and needed to reject the thoughts and choose to do the right thing.Survivors of satanic ritual abuse often have deep-seated triggers and need specialized healing.As Christians, we have to understand the programming and mind control used in satanic rituals to address the trauma triggers effectively.It is only through Yeshua that Christians can heal the deep-seated wounds inflicted by satanic rituals and abuse.[58:48] Spreading True Healing to Those in NeedNot enough Christians understand the reality of how spiritual healing works, preventing them from receiving healing. [59:04] Reagan: “This is real. This is real life. It happens. It's in our churches, it's in our small, little towns, it's in our big cities. It's everywhere. But we're not believing that it's real, and so those people are sitting there hurting, you know, and and not getting the healing that they need from their fragmented souls” We can be emissaries of that healing and a channel for God's peace when we join movements to reach out, like Pulse 100.Becoming a channel for God's peace is also a way for us to grow spiritually. About MichelleMichelle Young is a devoted servant of God, with over 30 years of experience in discipling and counseling those seeking spiritual healing and freedom.

The desert fathers were incredibly sensitive to the simple things in life that we often take for granted; the ways that we speak with others and treat them. In this sense, they were psychologically astute; realizing that in the warp and woof of day-to-day life, it is often the small things that affect relationships the most and so also a place where we are provoked to sin. We often describe these aspects of our life as normal or natural; that is, being human. Yet, even that which is good must be perfected by the grace of God for it can be corrupted if the heart is impure or lacking in charity. Thus, without hesitation, the fathers can say “there is no passion, more terrible than familiarity, for it gives rise to all the other passions.“ At first this might seem to be hyperbole. Familiarity seems to be an essential part of relationships and intimacy. What the fathers discovered, however, is that it can break down the reverence, dignity and meekness with which we engage others. The more that we are around a person we begin to think that we can take liberties and dispense with courteousness and tenderness in speech. We can use our intimate knowledge of others to tear them down or to gain a position of emotional power within the relationship. What has been entrusted to us as precious can be used in ways that inflict emotional wounds. Similarly laughter is seen as a natural part and perhaps one of the best parts of our lives. Humor often is the means through which we are able to cope with a harshness of life. It seems to lighten the spirit. However, it can often devolve into buffoonery; nothing is taken serious at all, and humor is used to mock the others. Such laughter then makes us lose sight of the dignity of the other and more importantly makes us lose sight of their dignity as sons and daughters of God. We feel that we are liberty to make fun of them or to laugh at their misfortune.  Our consideration of these things shows us how important it is for us to have the mind of Christ. We are to live in Him and it is His grace that must shape all of our actions. There is only one appropriate way for us to relate to another person and that is to love them! --- Text of chat during the group: 00:03:56 Fr. Charbel Abernethy: Page 266 00:06:34 Fr.

Let us know!Season 8 - The CopDoc Podcast - Episode 157Colonel Eric Smith's journey from Boeing sheet metal mechanic to leading the Kansas Highway Patrol reveals what transformative police leadership looks like in action. After a chance encounter with a sergeant led him to volunteer as a dispatcher, Smith found his calling in law enforcement, spending nine years with the Sedgwick County Sheriff's Office before joining DEA for 21 years, eventually rising to high-ranking leadership positions.When Smith took command of a divided Kansas Highway Patrol in 2023, he immediately embarked on statewide listening tours, but with a crucial difference from traditional "meet-and-greets" – he documented every concern, created accountability spreadsheets, and demanded solutions from command staff. His approach shocked some senior leaders comfortable with the status quo, but resonated deeply with officers hungry for meaningful change.At the heart of Smith's philosophy is the belief that "you should be hard on problems and soft on people." This mindset transformed KHP's rigid disciplinary structure, creating an environment where officers aren't afraid to take necessary risks or admit mistakes. By recognizing that few errors are truly career-ending, Smith cultivates a culture of growth rather than fear.The parallels between Smith's DEA experience and his current role are striking. Just as he understood that federal agents must respect that "it's their town, I'm just walking through it" when working with local agencies, Smith approaches relationships with county sheriffs from a position of humility. "The question that should come out of our mouth is 'What can I do to help?'" he explains, not "I'm taking over now."Smith grounds KHP's purpose in three principles: service requires sacrifice, courtesy demands recognizing dignity in every person, and protection takes courage. By connecting these values to personal identity – "you are not playing FOR KHP, you ARE KHP" – he transforms abstract concepts into deeply meaningful guideposts for officers.Want to build an organization where people feel valued and accomplish extraordinary things? Listen to this conversation between two former DEA colleagues who understand that effective leadership isn't about position or power – it's about creating environments where people know they matter.

It's not that hard to kill a planet. All it takes is a little drilling, some mining, a generous helping of pollution and voila! Earth over. When you take stock of what's left, it starts to look like a crime scene: decapitated mountains, poisoned rivers, oil-soaked pelicans, maybe a sun-bleached cow skull in a dried-up lake bed. The only thing missing is yellow caution tape. On each episode of Lawless Planet, host Zach Goldbaum reveals the scams, murders and cover-ups on the frontline of the climate crisis, and the life and death choices people are making to either protect our world – or destroy it.Listen to Lawless Planet: Wondery.fm/LawlessPlanetSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send us a textWhat does it take to build a successful shed transport business from scratch? For Daniel Yoder, founder of GDR Transport / Shed Movers, the answer lies not just in logistics and equipment, but in something far more fundamental—personal development.Daniel's journey begins far from the shed industry, with military service in the 82nd Airborne Division and deployment to Afghanistan in 2009-2010. Through an unexpected opportunity, he received CDL training courtesy of the military, though at that point, hauling sheds wasn't remotely on his radar. Fresh from deployment and focused on healing, Daniel initially pursued biblical studies at Liberty University while working at a lumber yard. A series of connections eventually led him to drive for a shed manufacturer before taking the leap to start his own transport business in 2016.With remarkable candor, Daniel shares how he launched his business with minimal savings, securing financing for equipment—a move he describes as potentially "dangerously stupid" yet born from the confidence his military experience and newfound independence had instilled. Now in his tenth year with multiple trucks on the road, he reflects on the growth that's occurred not just in his business but within himself.The podcast delves into powerful metaphors that have shaped Daniel's philosophy: people as tea bags that reveal their true flavor when placed in hot water, the shed industry providing plenty of challenging "hot water" moments that reveal character. Through equipment breakdowns, difficult customers, and even a severe personal injury that required years of recovery, Daniel emphasizes taking responsibility for our responses rather than blaming circumstances.For those in the shed hauling business or considering entering it, this conversation offers invaluable wisdom about maintenance practices, business relationships, and the mindset required for long-term success. Daniel's story demonstrates that sometimes, the path to professional achievement runs directly through personal growth and development—a journey well worth taking for anyone in the shed industry.For more information or to know more about the Shed Geek Podcast visit us at our website.Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube at the handle @shedgeekpodcast.To be a guest on the Shed Geek Podcast visit our website and fill out the "Contact Us" form.To suggest show topics or ask questions you want answered email us at info@shedgeek.com.This episodes Sponsors:Studio Sponsor: Shed ProIFABNewFound SolutionsSolar BlasterShed HubShed Suite

When teenage Abbi finds herself pregnant, her parents pressure her to go to a maternity home run by Liberty University. There, she's promised free medical care, college tuition, and counseling on whether to keep her baby or give it up for adoption to a Christian family. But once at the facility, Abbi feels controlled and cut off from her boyfriend - and starts reconsidering her adoption plans. She finds that in the Liberty Godparent Home, keeping her baby is not an offered choice.The Wondery podcast “Liberty Lost” tells the story of women who sought help for their unplanned pregnancies, only to feel coerced into adoptions. Journalist T.J. Raphael explores the resurgence of religious-based maternity homes in a post-Roe world, whether laws there are being broken, and the emotional toll on young mothers and fathers told God believes they don't deserve to be parents. OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "LIBERTY LOST" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 14 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.In Crime of the Week: snakes on a plane.

If you follow ultrarunning, you've probably heard the name Caleb Olson recently. In 2025, he broke through in a big way, winning the Western States 100 in 14:11:25, the second-fastest time ever on that iconic course.But his rise wasn't sudden. Raised in the Seattle area, Caleb was an All-ASUN runner at Liberty University, with PRs of 3:51 in the 1500m and 29:11 in the 10,000m. He entered the ultra world in 2018 and has built his career on quiet consistency and smartcoaching.Now running for the Nike ACG team, working full-time as a software developer, and adjusting to life as a new dad, Caleb is hitting his stride. In the last two years, he's racked up major results. In 2023 he got his Golden Ticket at the Grindstone Ultramarathon; in 2024 he came in 5th at Western States in his debut, while also securing 2nd at the Madeira Island Ultra-Trail 85K; and then in 2025 he set a course record during his win at Transgrancanaria in a time of 12:17:25.This led to his historic victory at Western States this past July.Trained by Jack Kuenzle and shaped by a background in mountaineering and triathlon, Caleb has become one of the most versatile and mentally tough athletes on the trail scene today.In today's conversation, Caleb takes me through his win at Western States, all that went into it, how he handles doubts and builds confidence, his crazy NIKE shirt he wore that broke the internet, being a new dad, what is next for him, and so much more.Tap into the Caleb Olson Special.  If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-BUY MERCH BEFORE IT'S GONE: https://shop.therunningeffect.run-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

After their “Act Like a Man” episode, the Perrys thought it would be beneficial to also have a conversation on womanhood. When Jackie first became a believer, she felt as though many books she read on womanhood leaned heavily on cultural contexts or norms instead of Biblical frameworks. As she has become more comfortable in her femininity, she's learned more about what it looks like to show up as a woman in everything God has called her to, whether that be marriage, motherhood, or ministry. Jackie and Preston discuss women's unique interpretations of scripture because of experiences men can't relate to, why a wife's submission to her husband is an act of tremendous strength, and how women's voices can be prioritized and dignified in the church. This Episode is Sponsored By: https://liberty.edu/Perry — Get your application fee WAIVED when you start your future with Liberty University today! https://www.covenanteyes.com/perrys/ — Get Victory by Covenant Eyes FREE for 30 days with promo code PERRYS Scripture references:Genesis 16 (the story of Hagar)Ephesians 5:22-24 & 231 Peter 3:5-6 Subscribe to the Perrys' newsletter.To support the work of the Perrys, donate via PayPal.www.withtheperrys.comboldapparel.shopwww.jackiehillperry.comwww.preston-perry.com

In Evangelical homes across the United States, sex outside of marriage is a sin against God. So, when Abbi becomes pregnant at 16, her devout parents hide her away at the Liberty Godparent Home, a little-known facility for pregnant teens on the campus of Liberty University. The Home says it helps girls decide what comes next – whether that's parenting their babies or placing them for adoption. But inside the facility, the girls hear a different message: God wants their babies to go to more “deserving” Christian couples. Some girls will find the strength to fight back. Others will have no choice but to give in. And some, like Abbi, will turn their grief into resistance – and take a stand against the system before more mothers lose their children to adoptions they never wanted. From Wondery, host and reporter T. J. Raphael tells a startling true story of young love, coercion, and defiance – and the dangerous resurgence of maternity homes in post-Roe America.Listen to Liberty Lost: Wondery.fm/LibertyLost_See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
