So there's a new coffee place up on Mountain View near Hover, Sandy's (SandΨ's). Some people call it “cute” or “vibey,” others call it “magical,” or “witchy.” (OK, those last two descriptions came from the owners, David and Nikki). After talking with them, I'd use the words “thoughtfully eclectic.” Listen to the show, and check the place out. Then, write to tell us your words for the place. In addition to SandΨ's, they also talk about renovating a duplex, owning part of a canning operation, and raising a son… all at the same time. PS: ALERT: WINCHELL'S NEWS

God's heart burns with an intense love for those who are far from Him, as illustrated through the parables of Luke 15. His emotions range from deep longing to determined searching, culminating in joyful celebration when the lost are found. We are called to align our hearts with His by allowing His love to flow through us to others, moving past obstacles like judgment or busyness.

This week we have a powerful and practical message from Tim Chaddick, Pastor for Preaching at Reality Ventura and a frequent speaker and mentor with Expositors Collective. Recorded live at a preacher training event in Indianapolis, Indiana, this teaching is concise, impactful, and brimming with honest and insightful wisdom. Tim encourages preachers to prioritise their reading, plan their rhythms, and practise their rules to cultivate personal spiritual health, relational well-being, and clarity in their public proclamation of God's Word. He outlines a strategic approach to sermon preparation, beginning with expositional resources to understand the biblical text, then connecting the passage to the broader narrative of Scripture through doctrinal and thematic resources, and finally incorporating cultural resources to address contemporary contexts. He also provides practical advice on balancing sermon preparation with the demands of pastoral care. From planning sermon series and crafting weekly rhythms to involving others in the feedback process, Tim offers valuable tools to help preachers stay spiritually grounded while effectively fulfilling their calling. Above all, he challenges preachers to preach first to their own hearts, rely on the Holy Spirit, and trust that God's Word will bear fruit—even in seasons of inadequacy. Tim's own journey began in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he pursued music and relationships as the source of his identity. After encountering the gospel of Jesus Christ, he experienced forgiveness and new life, leading to his calling as a pastor. Over the years, Tim has planted and pastored churches in Los Angeles, London, and Ventura, California, with a deep passion for urban church planting and gospel renewal. This episode is both practical and thought-provoking—a must-listen for anyone seeking wisdom on sustaining a healthy ministry life and preaching with clarity, power, and purpose.
