What if the most important thing about Jesus isn't where he walked, but what he awakened? We sit down with author and pastor Robert Ochs to follow a forty-year trail from carpentry and sea training to ancient libraries and pulpits, tracing how a life of work, service, and study led him to reexamine the nature of Christ. Along the way, Robert reveals the moments that cracked open his curiosity—a gifted copy of The Mystical Life of Jesus from an agnostic friend, long stretches of quiet on the water, and an assignment in Athens that put him close to artifacts and the discipline of manuscript research.Robert's perspective is both reverent and adventurous. He explores the potential influence of the Essenes, suggests how prophetic schools could have shaped Jesus' early formation, and draws from texts like the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Library to illuminate a message centered on inner transformation. Instead of a distant heaven, he points to the kingdom within; instead of fear-driven devotion, he argues for a spirituality measured by love, stillness, and conscious practice. His engineering background surfaces as he connects spiritual growth to ideas of energy, frequency, and vibration, while his pastoral heart keeps the conversation grounded in compassion and everyday choices.We also talk about the realities of authorship—why purpose outlasts profit, how disenfranchised Christians are finding fresh hope in his work, and what his next book will tackle as it brings “secret teachings” into dialogue with modern issues. If you've ever felt loyal to a denomination but hungry for a deeper inner life, this candid, research-rich conversation offers a map: meditate, question, study, and let love recalibrate your way of being.

Send me a messageThe real Blackadder who fought at the Battle of Blenheim, 1704.Chris Green is The History Chap; telling stories that brings the past to life.Ways You Can Support My Channel:Become A PatronMake A DonationSign up to my NewsletterLong before Rowan Atkinson's comic creation, a real Blackadder was fighting in some of the bloodiest battles in British military history. Lieutenant-Colonel John Blackadder was a Scottish soldier who served under the Duke of Marlborough and fought at the Battle of Blenheim—where he nearly died from a musket ball to the throat.Born in 1664 to a firebrand Covenanter preacher who died imprisoned on the Bass Rock, John Blackadder joined the newly-raised Cameronians in 1689. This distinctively religious Scottish regiment—nicknamed the "Psalm-singing Regiment"—would become his military home for over two decades. His first taste of battle came at Dunkeld, where 800 Cameronians held off more than 3,000 Jacobite Highlanders.During the Nine Years War, Blackadder fought at Steenkirk, Landen and the Siege of Namur. But his career was nearly derailed when he killed a fellow officer in a duel at Maastricht—an act that haunted this devout Presbyterian for the rest of his life.The War of the Spanish Succession brought Blackadder to Marlborough's greatest victories. He survived Schellenberg, was wounded at Blenheim, served at Ramillies, and was hit twice more at the Siege of Lille. At the catastrophic Battle of Malplaquet in 1709, Marlborough personally promoted him to Lieutenant-Colonel on the battlefield when his commanding officer fell wounded.After retiring in 1711, Blackadder returned to service during the 1715 Jacobite rebellion, commanding the Glasgow Volunteer Regiment. He ended his days as Deputy-Governor of Stirling Castle, and his diaries—published in 1824—remain an invaluable account of early 18th-century military life.Timeline of John Blackadder's Life:1664: Born in Dumfriesshire, Scotland1689: Joins the Cameronians; fights at Battle of Dunkeld1691: Kills Lieutenant Robert Murray in a duel at Maastricht1693: Promoted to Captain1704: Fights at Schellenberg and Blenheim (wounded)1705: Promoted to Major1706: Present at Battle of Ramillies1708: Wounded twice at Siege of Lille1709: Battlefield promotion to Lieutenant-Colonel at Malplaquet1711: Sells commission and retires1715: Commands Glasgow Volunteer Regiment during Jacobite rebellion1729: Dies aged 64; buried in StirlingSupport the show
Jeremy C. Park interviews Lieutenant Colonel (retired) Scott Mann, former U.S. Army Green Beret, Founder and President of Rooftop Leadership, bestselling author, and speaker, who discusses his 23-year military career and his transition into developing "rooftop leadership" concepts focused on building trust and human connections. Scott highlights his work as a writer, including his New York Times bestseller, "Nobody is Coming to Save You," and his upcoming book "The Generosity of Scars," which releases on May 12, 2026, and explores storytelling and vulnerability in leadership. The conversation concludes with a discussion of Scott's one-person show "11 Days" based on his best-selling book, which tells the story of the 2021 Afghanistan evacuation and demonstrates the powerful impact of storytelling in processing shared experiences and fostering connection.
« 72 heures de spéculations, de faux scoops et de rumeurs sur l'extradition de l'ex-président de la Transition du Burkina Paul-Henri Sandaogo Damiba. Et finalement, constate Aujourd'hui à Ouagadougou, l'info avérée tombe du côté de Lomé : l'illustre exilé renversé le 30 septembre 2022 a été remis au Burkina par le Togo sur requête des autorités burkinabè ». Commentaire du quotidien ouagalais : « le Togo reste fidèle à ses valeurs d'accueil humanitaire pour contribuer à la paix chez ses voisins mais il ne veut pas faire de son territoire un centre de déstabilisation contre ses mêmes voisins ! L'hôte Damiba, par ses implications supposées dans de multiples tentatives de déstabilisation dénoncées par Ouagadougou, semble avoir gravement porté atteinte au sacro-saint principe de neutralité attendu de tout exilé politique fut-il ancien chef d'Etat galonné ! Le Togo prévient ainsi tous les exilés politiques que le temps de l'impunité est révolu ! Accueil et humaniste oui mais déstabilisation Non ! » Le Togo a cédé Finalement, l'ex-officier putschiste a donc bien été lâché par les autorités togolaises… Jeune Afrique nous dévoile les dessous de cette extradition : « Lomé a reçu une demande d'extradition le 12 janvier, avec une accusation "de détournement criminel de deniers publics, enrichissement illicite, corruption, incitation à la commission de délits et crimes, recel aggravé et blanchiment de capitaux". Paul-Henri Sandaogo Damiba a été arrêté 4 jours plus tard, le 16 janvier, puis écroué. Le même jour, la chambre d'instruction de la Cour d'appel de Lomé donnait un avis favorable à son extradition. Les autorités togolaises, précise encore Jeune Afrique, disent aussi avoir reçu l'assurance que Paul-Henri Sandagogo Damiba aurait droit à "un procès équitable" et qu'il n'y aurait pas de "peine de mort", bien que la peine capitale ait été rétablie au Burkina Faso en décembre dernier ». Accusations et interrogations Alors, complète Afrik.com, « cette arrestation s'inscrit dans la continuité des accusations portées par le régime du capitaine Ibrahim Traoré contre son prédécesseur.

"Nous ne sommes pas dans une démocratie", avait-il dit alors. "ous sommes bien en révolution". De fait, poursuit Le Monde Afrique, le capitaine Traoré a éteint toutes les voix dissidentes, civiles comme militaires. Ses opposants, mais aussi des membres de leurs familles, sont arrêtés (et parfois torturés) ou contraints à l'exil. Certains disparaissent pendant des mois, voire des années, sans que leurs proches n'aient aucune nouvelle. De quoi faire dire à ses détracteurs que le Burkina Faso, "le pays des hommes intègres", n'est plus celui qui il y a peu encore était loué pour la vitalité de sa société civile et de sa presse indépendante ». Enfin, ce commentaire du Point Afrique : la junte burkinabé « gouverne par la peur pour masquer le vide. Au lieu de s'attaquer aux racines du problème, qui ont pour nom corruption endémique, sous-équipement des forces armées, alliances douteuses avec des milices locales, la junte préfère désigner des boucs émissaires ».

The guest fell through, but the conversation we needed showed up anyway. What starts as a solo pivot becomes a candid look at why emotional performance so often replaces grounded compassion—and how a recent Minnesota tragedy revealed the script in real time. I unpack the psychology of meaning-making, the shift from “I do activism” to “I am an activist,” and the social rewards that elevate feelings as proof of virtue. When identity fuses with ideology, dissent reads as harm, analysis gets labeled cruel, and symbolism races ahead of facts.We also talk about the role of institutionalized guilt and the anxiety it breeds: overperformance at vigils, faster condemnations, louder declarations that center the self while sidelining the person who was harmed. Media ecosystems compound it with binary frames that can't hold nuance, turning complex events into morality plays. I walk through the Minnesota case details, why evidence matters, and how tragedies become props when narratives demand instant certainty. This isn't a hit piece—it's an attempt to understand how smart, sincere people can still drift into brittle certainty, where empathy without truth becomes manipulation and debate gives way to megaphones.There's a different path. Anchor emotions to something outside the self: responsibility, order, and humility. Let grief be sacred, not strategic. Ask what we know and what we don't before we pronounce judgment. Real strength requires restraint; real compassion requires listening; real justice requires truth. If that resonates—or rankles—lean in. I want to hear your take, your pushback, and your added layers.If this conversation challenged you or clarified something you've been feeling, share it with a friend, subscribe for more, and leave a review so others can find it.

Jason O. Harris is a retired Lieutenant Colonel, fourth-generation service member, professional pilot, best-selling author, and nationally sought-after keynote speaker on trust and leadership. Jason spent nearly three decades serving our country in the U.S. Air Force, flying 11 combat deployments and more than 470 combat sorties, ultimately commanding a Boeing KC-46 Tanker Aircraft Squadron. He carries those hard-earned lessons beyond the cockpit and into boardrooms, equipping leaders and teams to build trust, accountability, and peak performance when it matters most. Today, Jason shares how trust is built under pressure, why leadership is revealed in moments of uncertainty, and what it truly means to "make the dash count." He opens up about growing up in chaos, learning the power of environment and influence early in life, and how high-risk combat missions shaped his belief that you don't rise to the occasion… you fall to the level of your training. My friends, if you're craving clarity in your leadership, confidence in your decisions, or stronger relationships at work and at home, this conversation is for you. You'll leave with a renewed understanding of how trust is earned, practical ways to show up with intention, and a powerful reminder that your presence matters more than you think.
What if the question holding you back isn't “Why me?” but “Why not me?” We sit down with Dr. Ed Newton, lead pastor of Community Bible Church and author of Why Not You, to unpack a life-changing shift in identity and calling. Ed opens up about battling rejection, dyslexia, anxiety, and a season so heavy he almost didn't make it through—then shows how counseling, community, and the Holy Spirit rebuilt courage from the inside out.We explore why shame quietly fuses failure to identity, how guilt can lead to repentance without defining who you are, and why most of us carry “rent-free” voices from the past that still drive today's choices. Ed shares a practical path to renew your mind, grounded in Romans 12: capture the thoughts, test the story, replace the lie with truth. He makes the case that your design is not an accident—image of God is your baseline—and even your supposed kryptonite can become a superpower when it's surrendered to purpose.The conversation lifts from the personal to the practical: a pregame talk to a losing basketball team becomes the spark for a book deal, a fresh reminder that calling is usually discovered through ordinary faithfulness. We talk imposter syndrome, true humility versus self-deprecation, and the leadership question that rewires self-awareness: What's it like to be on the other side of me? Along the way, Ed points you to simple next steps—daily devotionals, teaching, and tools—to keep your inner script aligned with who God says you are.If God will use someone today, why not you? Hit play, reframe the question, and take your next bold step.

Lieutenant Colonel retired C. Scott “Sonny” Duncan joins me for one of the more thought-provoking conversations I have hosted on Moments in Leadership. Sonny's path is anything but typical. He enlisted in the Navy, earned an ROTC scholarship, commissioned as a Naval Officer, transitioned into the Marine Corps, became an F/A 18 pilot, graduated from Top Gun, instructed at NAWDC, and was slated to command an F35 squadron before the COVID mandate brought his career to a crossroads.We cover how he learned to lead through fear, how aviation culture built his approach to performance and accountability, why he and his wife made a values based decision during the mandate, and how he now serves at the senior executive level inside the Department of the Navy. There are hard moments in this episode, and there are leadership lessons that apply across every community.As always, thank you to the supporters on Supercast who help keep Moments in Leadership ad free and sustainable.GUEST BIO LINKSSES Bio, C.

The ocean doesn't care about your plan, and that's exactly why we love it. We invited part of the Taylor Jean crew aboard the show to share how a handful of friends—bankers, builders, and tinkerers—built one of the most respected teams on the offshore tournament circuit. The story starts with a seasick freshwater angler who fell in love under a sky full of stars 80 miles out, and it unfolds into a masterclass on preparation, judgment, and trust when the seas get sporty.We dig into the craft behind the glamour: why some captains believe certain hulls “raise fish,” how swapping to a Viking changed hookup rates with the same crew and tactics, and what it takes to rig for success when a nicked leader can cost six figures. Blaine walks us through the pre-season grind—thousands of hooks, fresh line on every rod, backup everything—and the game-day calls that make or break an eight-hour window. Jay connects the dots between life skills and fishing skills: communication, composure, and the discipline to do the boring work so the exciting moments go your way.Then the ocean tests the plan. A rogue wave breaks over the house, the cockpit floods, a rod disappears, and the call is to head in—until a blue marlin eats and forces the team to execute in chaos. They finish the fight, release cleanly after lines out, and live to fish the next day. Along the way, we talk release-first ethics, guest anglers, and the traditions that stitch a team together, from first-billfish jumps to prank wars on rival boats. COVID-era adjustments—dinners delivered to the dock, fewer tents, more focus—sharpened their edge and reminded them why they chase fish in the first place.If you're curious about offshore sport fishing, tournament strategy, and the strange alchemy of passion plus preparation, this conversation puts you right in the cockpit. Hear about wildlife encounters like a giant loggerhead and the famed Dolphin 56, learn why weather windows dictate 120-mile runs, and see how camaraderie turns pressure into performance. Subscribe, share with a friend who loves the water, and leave a review telling us your favorite moment—we read them all and it helps more anglers find the show.Support the showElsa's AMAZON STORE Elsa's FAITH & FREEDOM MERCH STORE Elsa's BOOKSElsa Kurt: You may know her for her uncanny, viral Kamala Harris impressions & conservative comedy skits, but she's also a lifelong Patriot & longtime Police Wife.

What happens when a daughter writes two letters a week to her mom for ten years while breaking into one of the most male-dominated industries in America? You get a time-capsule memoir packed with real deals, real setbacks, and real strategies that still work. We're joined by Dr. Mary Mitchell, who rose through the 1980s pulp, paper, and timber world negotiating 60 contracts at a time, feeding mills through strikes and shortages, and outmaneuvering intimidation with a calm, data-first style.Mary walks us through the volatile market forces that defined the decade—interest rates near 20 percent, housing crashes, export booms—and how she turned chaos into leverage with scenario planning, meticulous market intel, and relentless relationship-building with everyone from tug dispatchers to scale houses. She unpacks her “plain vanilla” negotiation approach: ignore the theatrics, return to price and inventory, anticipate failure modes, and have ten counters ready when they hit. The stories are vivid: rescuing a mill with hog fuel dug from a forgotten valley, barging sawdust into San Francisco, and earning a rival's backhanded compliment for never leaving a dime on the table.We also talk about boundaries and resilience. Mary shares how she handled inappropriate advances by steering back to business, why preparation disarms bullies, and how confidence grows when you ask the “dumb” questions first. For students of negotiation, supply chain pros, and women navigating male-heavy fields, this conversation doubles as a practical playbook and a compelling narrative. Her letters are now a memoir, and her methods are as relevant to today's complex markets as they were when strikes shut down mills and trucks lined the yard.Grab the book on Kindle now, with paperback, hardback, and audio on the way.

The hardest moments don't just test our faith—they rewrite it. Author Elizabeth Harris sits with us to share how grief, motherhood, and the daily work of love turned her from religious motions to a living relationship with God. After losing her grandfather, she began writing letters to heaven, a humble practice that shifted from ink on a page to prayer with a pulse. Those pages became a map out of despair, teaching her to feel what is real, name it without shame, and surrender what she couldn't fix.Our talk moves from the silence of loss to the music of nature. Elizabeth describes standing in a tropical grove as wind changed tone across different trees, a simple moment that revealed a language of the Spirit—one breath expressed a thousand ways. That insight fueled her choice to blend poetry and prose, because some truths need the space of a line break and others need the steadiness of narrative. We also walk through her unexpected path into late motherhood and the seismic shift of raising a son with autism and cognitive delay. Denial gave way to an honest, gut-level lament that cleared room for peace. Along the way, she learned to see people who wound us as carrying their own special needs of the heart, and to live from the inside out instead of performing for the room.Elizabeth now describes herself as a heartist, offering prayerful Reiki as gentle care that smooths stress and pours love without fanfare. Her throughline is disarmingly simple: be the child of God you are, and the rest finds its place. If you've been navigating grief, faith deconstruction, autism parenting, or the fear of sharing vulnerable work, this conversation offers practical hope and thoughtful perspective. Listen, breathe, and consider what love this moment is asking of you.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs courage, and leave a short review—it helps more people find these stories.

What if we could bridge the divide between healthcare leaders who understand that team member safety and wellbeing is essential and those who view it as nice-to-have with a small shift in focus? That's what happens when Carlton Abner, DNP, RN, NBC-HWC, reframes wellbeing goals as protecting capacity – whether capacity to learn or teach, perform or recover, or empathize and connect. In this episode of Caring Greatly, Dr. Abner shares what it means to protect capacity for students at Kansas City University (KCU), including medical students. He shares how important capacity protection is for a generation of students who want to engage differently in their work, with a strong focus on passion and connection.Dr. Abner's 30+ years of healthcare and leadership experience began as an ER/trauma nurse with the Army where he led interprofessional teams within various healthcare settings around the world. Today he serves as the Vice Provost for Student Engagement and Wellbeing at KCU.

Optimizing Software Development in Non-Tech Enterprises: Lessons from Nate Amidon of Form100 ConsultingIn this episode, host Josh Elledge interviews Nate Amidon, Founder and CEO of Form100 Consulting and Lieutenant Colonel in the Air Force Reserves. Nate shares how his background in both military leadership and enterprise consulting informs his approach to optimizing software development in non-tech organizations. From process mapping to team structure, he offers practical strategies for business leaders looking to improve efficiency, clarity, and scalability in their software operations.Optimizing Software in Non-Tech EnvironmentsNate explains that many organizations—manufacturers, service providers, and consumer brands—struggle with software development because it's not their core business. These companies often lack visibility into progress, rely on legacy processes, and face alignment issues across teams. His firm, Form100 Consulting, helps such enterprises identify bottlenecks, streamline workflows, and adopt lean, agile, and AI-driven practices that improve delivery speed without sacrificing quality.By mapping out the current workflow, teams can uncover where time and resources are being lost. Nate emphasizes focusing on the true constraint rather than over-optimizing non-critical steps. He also warns against chasing “shiny object” tools or AI solutions that don't solve the underlying process issues. Instead, organizations should apply AI incrementally to enhance existing systems.Drawing from his Air Force experience, Nate advocates for small, mission-focused teams—6 to 9 people—that communicate effectively and make decisions quickly. He stresses that sustainable improvement requires governance, ownership, and regular review. Ultimately, success comes from aligning teams, measuring progress, and committing to continuous improvement—much like in a high-performing military unit.About Nate AmidonNate Amidon is the Founder and CEO of Form100 Consulting, a firm that helps non-software-first enterprises optimize their software development processes. A Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Air Force Reserves, Nate combines military leadership principles with enterprise strategy to help teams increase alignment, efficiency, and long-term performance.About Form100 ConsultingForm100 Consulting partners with major enterprises—including Hershey, Boeing, Rite Aid, and Alaska Airlines—to modernize software development practices through process improvement, agile adoption, and data-driven transformation. The firm's mission is to bring structure, clarity, and sustainable efficiency to organizations where software is a critical enabler—not the core product.Links Mentioned in This EpisodeForm100 Consulting WebsiteNate Amidon LinkedIn ProfileKey Episode HighlightsCommon software challenges in non-tech companiesHow to identify and fix bottlenecks in development workflowsThe value of lean and agile principles for non-software teamsIncremental, ROI-focused AI integrationBuilding and scaling small, high-performing teamsApplying military leadership lessons to software developmentConclusionNate Amidon's insights bridge the gap between military precision and corporate innovation.
