Have you ever wondered what it really means to be made in the image of God? Genesis 1:27 reveals that being created in God’s image isn’t just about our unique qualities—it’s about our purpose. In Scripture, God appoints humanity to represent His character and authority on earth, reflecting His love, order, and goodness wherever we go. This devotional explores the deeper biblical meaning behind being made in God’s likeness, revealing how we were created not only with identity but also with divine responsibility. Like royal ambassadors, we are called to bring light into darkness, peace into chaos, and God’s presence into every sphere of influence. ✨ Highlights Being made in God’s image goes beyond identity — It’s about living out God’s authority and reflecting His goodness. Purpose and responsibility — We are meant to represent God’s character wherever we live, work, and influence others. A biblical perspective — Ancient Near Eastern kings used statues to represent their reign; in the same way, we represent God’s kingdom on earth. Humanity’s mission — Bring God’s order, kindness, and love into the spaces around you, from your home to your community. Practical reflection — Use your unique gifts not only to build yourself up but to magnify God’s presence and goodness in the world.

Lee Morris' life story is a raw and powerful journey from bank robbery and brutal prison time to redemption. Growing up in Duchess County, New York, Lee's childhood was shaken by his parents' divorce, leading him down a troubled path. After moving to Florida as a teenager, he fell in with the wrong crowd, began robbing houses, and eventually escalated to robbing a bank — a decision that landed him four years in one of Florida's toughest youthful offender prisons. Even after his release, Lee continued down a destructive road and was sent back to prison 16 years later for drug charges. Today, he's sharing his story of survival, the realities of prison life, and how he finally turned his life around after years of chaos and incarceration. #PrisonStories #TrueCrimePodcast #BankRobbery #PrisonLife #FloridaPrison #RedemptionStory #SecondChances #LockedInWithIanBick Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Use code LOCKEDIN for 20% OFF Wooooo Energy Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00 Intro: The Bank Robbery 00:18 Lee's Troubled Childhood 03:02 Family Background and Early Influences 06:00 Growing Up in Poverty 09:19 Early Delinquency and Moving to Florida 13:14 Getting Involved with Guns and Crime 15:36 From House Robberies to Robbing a Bank 18:16 The Bank Heist Unfolds 20:54 Aftermath: Getting Caught and Facing Court 25:00 Prison: Sentencing and First Days 27:00 Surviving Florida Youthful Offender Prison 33:36 Prison Violence and Racism 40:44 Learning Prison Rules and Inmate Justice 45:12 Family Support During Incarceration 47:51 Smuggling, Confinement, and Prison Life 52:52 Release: Getting Out and Reentering Society 55:40 Back to the Streets: Drugs, Probation, and Temptation 01:01:03 Drifting Back into Crime 01:04:49 Major Drug Case and Second Arrest 01:07:40 Second Prison Term: Adult System 01:13:33 Contrasts Between Youthful Offender and Adult Prison 01:15:54 Lessons Learned From Prison 01:20:27 Work Release and Returning to Society 01:24:12 Making a Fresh Start: Moving North 01:26:00 Finding Support and Unconditional Love 01:28:03 Life Today and Reflections 01:29:00 Advice for Young People & Final Thoughts Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

What if everything you've been told about retirement planning is fundamentally wrong? What if focusing on an arbitrary retirement age is actually preventing you from living your best life right now?In this eye-opening conversation, Scott Ford welcomes Derek Coburn, USA Today bestselling author of "Let's Retire Retirement," who shares a revolutionary financial perspective that could transform how you balance present enjoyment with future security. Through his "Tale of Two Tonys," Derek reveals a shocking mathematical reality: extending your working life by just 10 years could reduce your required monthly savings by up to 96%. This isn't about working forever—it's about recognizing that most people don't actually want decades of complete inactivity and adjusting your financial plan accordingly.The discussion takes a deeply personal turn when Derek shares his "Time Machine Effect," asking what you would pay to travel back in time for one more bedtime routine with your 10-year-old child. Most would gladly write a $50,000 check for such an opportunity, yet we rush through these priceless moments daily. Even more sobering: by the time your children leave for college, you've already spent 93% of the total time you'll ever spend with them. These insights aren't meant to induce guilt but to inspire intentionality about how we allocate our most precious resources—time, energy, and yes, money.Scott and Derek also explore Carl Jung's concept of individuation—becoming who we're truly meant to be—and how traditional retirement planning often works against this essential human journey. Through their candid exchange about making money "clean" and creating business models with fewer conflicts of interest, they offer a refreshing take on financial planning that prioritizes living authentically now rather than postponing fulfillment for some distant future.Whether you're just starting your career or approaching traditional retirement age, this conversation invites you to question your assumptions and consider a more balanced approach to wealth that honors both your future security and your present joy. Listen in and discover how you might be able to redirect resources toward what truly matters—today.Connect with our guest:Derek Coburn, Author, Let's Retire Retirement3511 N Potomac StArlington VA 22213(202) 714-7800Website: https://www.derekcoburn.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/derekcoburn/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/derekcoburnxdc/X: Hear Past episodes of the Way2Wealth Podcast!https://theway2wealth.com Learn more about our Host, Scott Ford, Managing Director, Partner & Wealth Advisorhttps://www.carsonwealth.com/team-members/scott-ford/ Investment advisory services offered through CWM LLC, an SEC-registered investment advisor.

Get your ticket today!Today I'm sharing some great insight today about my newest New York Times Bestselling book, "Make Money Easy". But first, I need to tell you about my dad and these $2 bills.

In 1975, NASA launched two spacecraft to Mars. Viking 1 and Viking 2 arrived at their destination less than a year later, each bringing a lander to explore the surface of the planet and an orbiter to survey above. What was supposed to be a 90 day mission ended up lasting until the early 1980s. Those years provided scientists with important data about the Martian landscape, from seismometer readings of marsquakes to the reddish color of the sky.But the Viking missions had another important task: they were going to look for possible signs of life. The Viking experiments would go on to become an important landmark in science, one that's helped researchers in a number of fields figure out what we can be doing better to find signs of life beyond Earth.Send us your science facts, news, or other stories for a chance to be featured on an upcoming Tiny Show and Tell Us bonus episode.

For 50 years, abortion was protected by the Supreme Court, but in the Dobbs decision in 2022, the court overturned Roe, allowing states to protect life by restricting abortion.

Wade?  David Closson joins the podcast to discuss his new book Life After Roe: Equipping Christians in the Fight for Life Today.
