After serving in the U.S. Army and later working as a software engineer, Matthew set out to build something entirely different: a place where people could disconnect from technology, slow down, and reconnect with one another. Inspired by years of visiting bathhouses throughout New York City and around the world, Matthew saw an opportunity to bring a centuries-old tradition into a modern setting. Reunion Baths blends communal bathing, thoughtful design, and hospitality to create spaces where meaningful conversations, genuine relationships, and everyday wellness naturally come together.     In this episode of the SABM podcast, Scott chats with Matthew about: An Unconventional Entrepreneurial Journey: How an unexpected passion for bathhouses led Matthew from software engineering to launching Reunion Baths. More Than a Wellness Trend: Why Matthew believes communal bathing fills a growing need for deeper human connection in an increasingly digital world. Designing an Experience People Remember: The vision behind Reunion Baths and how every detail is intended to encourage conversation, relaxation, and community. Bringing a Big Idea to Life: Matthew shares what it takes to raise capital, navigate development, and turn an ambitious concept into a reality. Building for the Long Term: From expanding into major cities to helping shape America's culture around communal bathing, Matthew shares the vision guiding Reunion Baths beyond its first location.  Timestamps: 00:41 Spa Love Story Begins 02:26 Russian Turkish Baths Spark 05:40 Why Bathhouses Are Back 09:37 Funding and Brooklyn Location 11:13 Inside the Bathhouse Design 13:54 Timeline and Build Plan 15:49 Big Vision and Expansion 19:03 How to Help and Invest Connect with Matthew LinkedIn | Matthew Filbert reunionbaths.com matthew@reunionbaths.com  If you found value in today's episode, don't keep it to yourself—share it with a colleague or friend who could benefit.

Summer on the Mount — Week 1: The Upside-Down Good Life | Matthew 5:1–12 Texts: Matthew 5:1–12What if the life the world calls blessed is not actually the good life?In Week 1 of Summer on the Mount: A Better Way to Be Human, Pastor Kevin begins walking through the Sermon on the Mount by looking at the Beatitudes. Before Jesus teaches about anger, desire, prayer, money, anxiety, or obedience, He begins with blessing. He answers the question everybody is asking in some form: Who is really living the good life?This message shows that the Beatitudes are not a ladder to climb so we can earn God's favor. They are an announcement that the Kingdom has come near. Jesus blesses people the world does not know what to do with: the poor in spirit, those who mourn, the meek, the hungry, the merciful, the pure in heart, the peacemakers, and the persecuted.If you have been chasing a version of blessing built on success, control, comfort, image, or comparison, this message is an invitation to let Jesus redefine the good life—and to come to Him honestly, poor in spirit, hungry for righteousness, and ready to receive.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 1:00 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextstepsFollow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch

Matthew #56: Tasting The Tree Of Life (Matthew 26:17-30) Janelle Greene (6/28/26) When I was in college, one of my professors led an activity that has stayed with me ever since. He said the word “apple” and asked us to write down as many descriptive words as we could. We wrote things like fruit and tree. Then he showed us a picture of an apple, and our list grew with words like red, round, and leaf. Next, he brought out a fake apple, giving us even more details to describe. Finally, he passed around a real apple. Now we could write about its weight, texture, smell, the sound of a bite crunching, and other characteristics that were impossible to experience through the previous examples.The purpose of the exercise was to demonstrate how much more we learn when multiple senses are engaged. The professor encouraged us to involve as many senses as possible when teaching because it increases the likelihood that people will understand and remember what is being communicated. Hearing alone has its limits, but understanding grows when we add sight, touch, and even taste.I often think about that lesson when I consider why Jesus commanded us to eat and drink in remembrance of His sacrifice. We are not called only to listen or to watch. We are invited to taste and touch as we remember what Christ has done and worship Him.This Sunday we will continue our study in Matthew by reading chapter 26, verses 17 through 30. In this passage, we will see the Last Supper, where Jesus transforms the Passover meal into a reminder of the New Covenant established through His sacrifice. What stands out to you about Jesus' words and actions?If you would like to study more of the context ahead of time, The Bible Project has excellent resources on Passover and the biblical covenants that provide helpful context for this week's passage. We hope you will take a few minutes to explore them, and we invite you to join us this Sunday as we study God's Word together.Click here for a pdf of the teaching slideshow.

A Fruitful Life, Matthew 13:1-23 by The Chapel Norwalk Campus

This sermon focuses on Matthew 26 and uses Jesus' unjust trial before the Sanhedrin as a model for how Christians should handle the trials of life while “growing up” in their salvation. The message emphasizes that following Jesus means learning obedience and spiritual maturity by removing destructive patterns and embracing the life Christ offers. Through Jesus' arrest, false accusations, silence before His accusers, and suffering, believers are shown how to respond when life feels unfair. The central lessons are to let God fight your battles and to speak truth only at the right time. Jesus remained silent when falsely accused, demonstrating trust, self-control, and dependence on the Father rather than reacting in fear or self-defense. Yet when directly asked about His identity, He boldly spoke the truth. The sermon connects this to the believer's need for spiritual discernment, power, love, and self-control through the Holy Spirit. It then broadens into practical teaching from James 5 on enduring life's trials with patience, eternal perspective, perseverance, and trust in God's compassion and purpose. Using examples from Scripture, personal stories, and passages about spiritual warfare and God's promises, the message teaches that trials are unavoidable but can become tools God uses for maturity, perseverance, testimony, and blessing. Ultimately, believers are encouraged to trust God's plan, stand firm in faith, anticipate Christ's return, and remember that God is compassionate, faithful, and actively working even through suffering.

Pastor Luke Simmons begins a new series called “The Blessed Life,” looking at what Jesus says the truly good life is in Matthew 5:1–12, the Beatitudes. In this message, he focuses on the first Beatitude: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Luke explores what “blessed” really means, how being “poor in spirit” is different from just being sad or shy, and why recognizing our spiritual need is the starting point for experiencing God's kingdom. He contrasts self-righteous confidence with humble dependence on God, using Jesus' parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector in Luke 18. This short sermon was preached when the church celebrated baptisms, highlighting how each story of life change begins with the realization, “I need mercy.”**HOW TO FIND US*** SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YouTube CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/@IronwoodChurchAZFACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/ironwoodchurchaz/ INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/ironwood.church/WEBSITE https://www.ironwoodchurch.org/

Jesus' resurrection proved he is the Son of God and demonstrated his victory over death and evil. We are invited to resurrection life in here and now and for all eternity.

In this episode, I sit down with Matthew McConaughey — Oscar-winning actor, author of the bestselling memoir Greenlights, and a man who thinks about fatherhood, legacy, and what it means to truly live with the same intensity he brings to everything else. This is not a conversation about Hollywood. It's about what it means to be a man and a father who doesn't half-ass the most important things in his life. Matthew opens up about his own father — a larger-than-life man who taught him three rules that shaped everything: don't say can't, don't hate, and don't lie. We get into the stories behind each of those lessons, the "don't half-ass it" moment when Matthew told his dad he wanted film school instead of law school, and what it takes for a father to recognize that his son has made up his mind — not asking permission, but declaring a direction. We also talk about Camilla, taking his kids everywhere he goes on set, and why three older actors all told him the same thing: they chose work over family time and would do it differently if they could. Then there's the passage from Greenlights that stopped Larry mid-workout — about living your legacy now, and the idea that most of us don't fly too close to the sun. We don't fly nearly high enough. Our alarms go off too early. This one is timeless.   Timeline Summary [0:00] Introduction to the Dad Edge mission and the movement to raise leaders of families and communities [1:02] Why this replay is one of the top ten episodes in Dad Edge history [2:18] What Matthew hoped would come from this conversation: waking men up to what being a dad really means [4:29] What brings Matthew joy: bringing people together and watching them build their own independent friendships [6:31] The role most relative to who he is as a husband and father — and why his family has always come with him on every job [8:52] Camilla's one condition before they started a family: "You go, we go" [11:02] Three older actors all said the same thing: they chose work over family, and they regret it [12:39] The 80% statistic: most of your one-on-one time with your kids is gone by the time they're 12 [14:00] Fatherhood is a verb — on screen time, saying no with love, and why the easy answer is almost always the wrong one [18:33] The birds and bees talk from his father: a lesson about respect for women that stuck word for word [20:34] Don't say can't — the lawnmower story and the lesson that there's always another way [21:57] Don't hate — saying "I hate you" at his own birthday party, and what happened next [22:28] Don't lie — the stolen pizza, four chances to tell the truth, and what Matthew actually remembers [24:10] "Don't half-ass it" — the film school conversation and what it means when a father hears conviction in his son's voice [28:04] His dad was alive for just five days into Matthew's first acting job — the first thing he committed to that wasn't a fad [30:55] How Matthew pursues Camilla in the middle of kids, career, and constant demands on his time [35:26] Why Matthew and Camilla go on dates every week — and what they tell the kids about why mom and dad go alone [35:43] The passage from Greenlights that stopped Larry in the gym: "Live my legacy now" [38:33] The inverted Icarus problem: most of us don't fly too close to the sun — our alarms go off way too early [41:59] The science in the rearview mirror — how everything connects, even the things that looked like mistakes [42:36] Ten years from now: what Matthew hopes to be celebrating with his family   Five Key Takeaways Fatherhood is a verb, not a label. It's not about helping make the baby — the work starts after. Teaching, shepherding, saying no, explaining why — that is the job. The three rules Matthew's father gave him — don't say can't, don't hate, don't lie — are not just household rules. They are the weapons a man needs to negotiate the world. When your child comes to you convicted — not asking permission, but declaring a direction — your job as a father is to recognize that and say "don't half-ass it." Most of us don't fly too close to the sun. Our alarms go off too early. We put a ceiling on our own potential before we've even started to soar. Your marriage needs intentional pursuit — even in the busiest seasons of parenting. It doesn't just hold itself.   Links & Resources Roommates to Soulmates Cohort & Preview Call: https://thedadedge.com/soulmates The Men's Forge: https://themensforge.com Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey: https://a.co/d/017KxpPw Episode Link & Resources (Episode 1458): https://thedadedge.com/1458   Closing If there's one message from this episode that stands out, it's this: stop waiting for the right moment to live your legacy — it's already happening right now. Matthew McConaughey's father gave him three rules, one five-second pause, and a standard he's been carrying ever since. Don't say can't. Don't hate. Don't lie. Don't half-ass it. The men whose kids will remember them the way Matthew remembers his dad are the ones who show up every day knowing that fatherhood is not a label you earn once. It's a verb you live out in a thousand small moments that add up to everything. If this episode hit you where it needed to, share it with a father who needs the reminder. Go out and live legendary.

Peter saw Jesus on the water. And he said, Lord, if it is you, bid me to come. Was he just defying gravity?
Or was there a deeper reality?

Title: The Upside Down Spiritual LifeSpeaker: Nate HoldridgeOverview: In this sermon from Matthew 6:1-18, Pastor Nate Holdridge walks through Jesus' warning against performative religion — the danger of doing the right things for the wrong audience. Jesus gives three illustrations of this temptation: giving to the poor with a trumpet blast, praying on street corners for maximum visibility, and fasting with a disfigured face designed to advertise spiritual discipline. In each case, Jesus contrasts the hypocrite who has already been "paid in full" with human applause against the disciple who practices righteousness in secret before a Father who sees, knows, and rewards. Pastor Nate shows how the Fatherhood of God — mentioned ten times in this passage — is the controlling center that transforms our motivations, turning us from an audience of peers to an audience of One. This teaching includes practical guidance on biblical fasting, an honest look at why the contemporary church has been slow to teach on fasting, and a call for every believer to embrace the secret life of faith that Jesus assumes of all His followers.Link to Sermon NotesLink to Discussion Questions

Title: Upside Down Interior LifeSpeaker: Nate HoldridgeOverview: In this teaching from the Sermon on the Mount, Pastor Nate Holdridge explores Matthew 5:21-32, where Jesus begins to reveal the radical, internal transformation He desires for His people. By addressing the root issues of anger, lust, and marital unfaithfulness, Nate shows how Jesus moves beyond external religious checklists to claim authority over our interior lives. We see that the Kingdom of Heaven isn't just about avoiding murder or adultery; it's about a radical devotion to reconciliation, a commitment to sexual purity, and a high esteem for the marriage covenant. Join us as we learn how Jesus' "upside down" ethics provide a protective shield for the vulnerable and lead us toward a life of true flourishing grounded in the Gospel.Link to Sermon Notes

In our series through the book of Matthew, we've just seen Jesus call His first disciples and begin His public ministry. The central theme of Jesus' teaching at this time was all about the Kingdom of Heaven. This morning, Jesus tells the disciples and the crowd what life in the Kingdom of Heaven is really like... and it's not what any of them expected, in the best possible way. - Pastor Arek O'ConnellSupport the show

Title: The Upside Down LifeSpeaker: Nate HoldridgeOverview: In this Sunday sermon from Matthew 5:9-16, Pastor Nate Holdridge explores what it means to live "The Upside Down Life" as citizens of Christ's kingdom. Drawing from the final beatitudes and Jesus' powerful declarations about salt and light, we'll examine four key aspects of Christian identity: imitating God as peacemakers, standing with the prophets through persecution, functioning as salt that preserves and flavors the world, and shining as light that cannot be hidden. Using examples from Abigail's peacemaking efforts and Jeremiah's suffering, this message challenges believers to embrace the central call of the Christian life—to simply be who we already are in Christ.Link to Sermon Notes

What could be sadder than standing before the Lord one day with nothing to show for the life He gave you? In this powerful message from Pastor Jeff Schreve, discover the sobering truth behind Jesus' parable of the talents — a story that reveals the danger of spiritual complacency and the cost of burying your blessings. God has entrusted every believer with time, talent, and opportunity. One day, the Master will return to settle accounts. Will He say, “Well done, good and faithful servant” … or will your life echo with the words, “It might have been”?

Those who treasure Christ above all else find in Him a satisfaction that never ends. Matthew 26: 1-16
