N dreams of a tree, but the interpretation is that God will punish him with temporary insanity. Daniel is tactful again, “If only this were a message for your enemies…” and though probably afraid is still willing to tell the king the truth. Acknowledging God is necessary for N's recovery. Daniel calls on him to renounce his sin by doing what is right, and renounce wickedness by being kind to the oppressed. The antidote to a sick heart is good action. Attitude can be cured by action. N recovers and praises God. Possible application points: do you have to hit rock bottom to call out to God? (incl. CR testimony?) What sin do you need to renounce? What good action do you need to engage in to change your attitude towards the oppressed? Who are the oppressed around us?
After 25 years of being "Superman on the outside but a train wreck on the inside," John A. Mollenhauer has discovered the missing piece between high achievement and sustainable health. John is an entrepreneur who started his first gym at 19 and worked with Tony Robbins in his 20s—he learned the hard way that our culture rewards the very behaviors that lead to burnout. In this episode, John reveals how he developed the Performance Lifestyle framework after checking himself into a hospital from complete exhaustion. His method isn't about work-life balance—it's about knowing what to do, why, how, and when at the right intensity for sustainable results in both health and achievement. This conversation offers a practical pathway to break free from the hidden lifestyle challenges keeping you stuck in the energy-debt cycle.

Start Your Transformation Now Ever wondered why you're not getting the results you want in the gym, in your business and perhaps all the areas of your life?There could be many reasons but a huge reason is talked about in this episode, self-integrity. Are you being 100% integral with your word to yourself relative to your desired outcomes? Do you eat the way you say you'll eat? Do you go to the gym when you say you will go? Do you lead generate for your business like you say you will? Do you do what you say you'll do when you say you'll do it? If you just said no to the above questions you're going to love this episode because it's all about self-integrity! It's all about doing what you say you're going to do when you say you're going to do it. In this episode I discuss:[2:46] How you can have a 100-500% increase in your productivity when you keep your word to yourself.[7:08] How I used to lie to myself about integrity (and you probably do too).[22:44] How we speak our lives into existence.[23:12] Why not keeping your word affects your self-esteem.And, of course, much much more.Self-Integrity is VITAL to your success in any activity and according to a Harvard business professor who studies it, it's one of the most over-looked concepts in business and life.When we're out of self-integrity, nothing works, we keep failing over and over in many areas of life that we think are important to us.Let me rephrase the last paragraph, things work in life but they rarely work the way we want when we're out of integrity. Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway Be 100% impeccable with your word to yourself. Let's Connect: Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?

Triston Casas has a long road back before he can play baseball again and he might not even be the same that the Red Sox might need to think about finding a new long term option at first base.
On today's show, the WIP midday show following BG Day yesterday have some concerns over life without Brandon Graham! Have the Eagles done enough to replace BG, who will be the leader on a defense who only has 1 player over the age of 26, and could this prove to be legitimate threat to the Eagles team? Plus, after watching the New York Knicks have a statement win in Boston yesterday the Midday show has become jealous of the Knicks success. Have sixers fans also become jealous of the Eastern Conference rival? As well as, Bryce Harper seemingly taking a shot at the WIP midday show, more reaction to BG Day yesterday, and more!
From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): It was a rough weekend for the Red Sox as they not only lost their series at Fenway to the Twins, but also lost Triston Casas for seemingly the season and maybe longer. Gordo, Sammy, and Pat give their takes on how the Sox should address their new need at first base for both the short and long term. Then, the most recent stretch of losses have been when the Sox have had the lead, but what is the balance between the lack of offense and Garrett Whitlock among others not locking things down? And, the guys agree that fans need to get realistic about Luis Guerrero and the role he has for the 2025 Red Sox specifically.

Hello Lovlies! Happy Friday! I decided to do a little mini series of solo episodes as a follow up the episode of The Never Ending Story and Releasing Fear. To provide an offering for how to begin awakening our loving, trusting selves. And it starts with the heart. Inspired by the wonderful book by Dana Quade, Doing The Thing: How Finding Your Shine Will Brighten Our World I share what she refers to as the 4 chambers of the heart and will be covering each chamber in this mini series.On this episode I talk about the second chamber of the heart which allows us to find our Divine inner adult, The Clear Heart. I share the importance of having a clear heart rather than a heart muddled and clouded by fear and self pity. A Clear heart allows you to engage in life with objectivity & reason. When your heart is clear you don't think personally by deciding that you're not going to be the victim of anyone's behavior. When your heart is clear you find great love and appreciation for You.Doing The Thing: How Finding Your Shine Will Brighten Our World, By Dana Quade, https://www.amazon.com/Doing-Thing-Dana-Quade/dp/0692001689Donations To Women Waken To Support The Show Are Greatly Appreciated

Welcome to The Daily, where we go through the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day. We are one week away from starting the Gospel of Mark. Go to the website and grab the Scriptural Journal for this study so you can study along with us. Today, we're looking at Ecclesiastes 11:9-10: Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth. Walk in the ways of your heart and the sight of your eyes. But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment. Remove vexation from your heart, and put away pain from your body, for youth and the dawn of life are vanity. — Ecclesiastes 11:9-10 Solomon gives a strong encouragement here: to enjoy your life. This isn't a call to reckless living—but to a joyful one. Life is short, and the days pass quickly. So don't waste them. But the freedom he describes comes with a boundary. He reminds us that everything we do—every diversion, every decision, every desire—is seen by God. And it will all be weighed. That's not meant to scare us. It's meant to ground us. God is not a killjoy; He's the One who gave us the gift of life. But He also cares how we use it. We're called to live with boldness and accountability. To enjoy life deeply and honor God fully. To chase good things—but not in a way that forgets the Giver. To pursue the desires of our heart—but also regulate those desires by his will. So what does that look like? It looks like joy without rebellion. Passion with wisdom. Zeal that's anchored in truth. It means dealing with the stuff that confuses our hearts—bitterness, anxiety, sin—and not letting it steal the true beauty of the moment. Then he adds to remove vexation and put away pain. In other words, don't let the weight of the world settle into your soul. Don't carry what you don't have to. Don't waste your youth—or your life—on what doesn't last. Enjoy your life. Honor your God. And let both shape the legacy you leave behind. And on to our last chapter of Ecclesiastes—chapter 12. #LiveWithPurpose, #JoyAndJudgment, #Ecclesiastes11 ASK THIS: Am I enjoying life or simply surviving it? How does the thought of God's judgment shape my daily decisions? What desires in my heart need more wisdom and accountability? What "vexation" or pain do I need to release to live freely? DO THIS: Enjoy your life today in a way that honors the God who gave it to you. PRAY THIS: Father, thank You for the gift of life and the freedom to enjoy it. Help me live with joy and accountability, honoring You in everything I do. Amen. PLAY THIS: Joy In The Morning.

Some schools of thought argue that we should transcend desires altogether, leading followers down a path of denial and disciplined detachment.

How do you rebuild your identity when alcohol has been woven into every aspect of your personal and professional life? Growing up in a rural fishing community where “drinking was a pastime, to put it mildly,” Peggy couldn't even remember her first drink. Her 28-year military career reinforced these patterns in predominantly male trades where working hard and playing hard revolved around alcohol. Finding the courage to stop drinking as a female veteran wasn't straightforward, especially when seeking help could jeopardize her security clearance and career. In this heartfelt conversation with Annie Grace, Peggy shares her journey to freedom from alcohol after retirement, how she navigated the transition, and why she's now training to become a coach to help others find the answers that are already inside themselves. In this episode, Annie and Peggy will discuss: The normalization of alcohol in rural communities and the military. The challenges of questioning ingrained drinking habits. The moment Peggy realized her drinking was no longer serving her. The fear of seeking help for alcohol issues within the military context. The support and understanding found within the This Naked Mind community. The concept of “duck mode” as a powerful tool for maintaining sobriety. Changing social dynamics and navigating friendships without alcohol. The realization of internal strength and wisdom. Peggy's motivation to become a certified coach and guide others, particularly female veterans, on their journey to stop drinking as a female veteran. The transformative power of self-acceptance and kindness.

Have you ever found yourself wondering, How can someone possibly believe that? Or maybe you've questioned your own beliefs after bumping up against someone else's certainty? You're not alone. In this episode, Tony Overbay, LMFT, dives into the complexities of perception, truth, and emotional maturity. He explores how individuals often encounter differing viewpoints—especially in today's social media-driven world—and how those experiences can lead to frustration, confusion, and even self-doubt.

Segment 1: • Christians struggle to disagree well—social media makes it worse. • Todd & Scott Klusendorf have debated for years but remain friends. • Theological debates often aren't about core doctrine but secondary issues. Segment 2: • You can reason someone into being pro-life, but only the Gospel saves. • Pro-life work must be gospel-driven, not just about changing culture. • Objective morality requires an objective moral lawgiver—atheists borrow from Christianity. Segment 3: • Scott partners with Catholics on pro-life issues—Todd is hesitant. • Does working together send a false unity message? • If the Gospel isn't clearly proclaimed, is it worth the partnership? Segment 4: • Both sides want abortion abolished—disagreement is on strategy. • Incrementalism saves lives now, abolitionists demand immediate justice. • Are abolitionists hurting their cause by rejecting practical steps?
