Colorado communities adapting to the long-term strain on water supplies in the arid West are turning one of their largest demands—the irrigated landscape—into a source of new supply, with this year's historically low snowpack adding urgency to the work.The first episode of Resilience in the Rockies travels from the Front Range to the Western Slope to examine how local leaders, utility managers, landscape professionals, and residents are replacing thirsty turf with landscapes designed for Colorado's climate.In Westminster, where about half of the city's drinking water is used outdoors, a prominent transformation at City Hall is expected to save at least 1.5 million gallons annually while adding native grasses, pollinator habitat, walking connections, and climate-appropriate plants grown at the city's own greenhouse.At the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley, nearly 3.5 acres of lightly used lawn have been redesigned with gathering areas, shade, native vegetation, and more precise irrigation—a project expected to conserve nearly 2 million gallons each year.Longmont is using GIS mapping to locate nonfunctional turf and rank potential projects according to water savings, heat vulnerability, air quality, irrigation source, community value, and opportunities to coordinate with other construction.That data-driven approach helped shape Kensington Park, where residents selected plants and amenities and helped install a water-wise garden around a neighborhood memorial previously damaged by irrigation.In Eagle County, the Beyond Lawn program pairs rebates with on-site evaluations, irrigation guidance, customized conservation plans, and contractor or do-it-yourself resources, helping replace 60,000 to 70,000 square feet of turf and save about four acre-feet of water annually.Together, the projects show that outdoor conservation succeeds when communities move beyond simply removing grass and create landscapes that are useful, attractive, locally appropriate, and supported over the long term.waterloop is a nonprofit news outlet exploring solutions for water sustainability. Resilience in the Rockies is produced in collaboration with WaterNow and made possible in part by a grant from the Colorado Water Conservation Board, with support from PCL Construction, Norris Design, Merrick, and the City of Greeley.Attend the Resilience in the Rockies event on October 20 in Denver.

Who are the people and voices influencing your life—and are they leading you toward wisdom or away from it? Proverbs 13:20 reminds us that “whoever walks with the wise becomes wise,” challenging us to take a closer look at the relationships, influences, and environments shaping us.This message explores how Proverbs calls us to respond wisely to the wicked, our enemies, and fools, while also challenging us to examine our own hearts. True wisdom includes surrounding ourselves with people who will speak truth, sharpen us, and point us toward God. And ultimately, we find the perfect friend in Jesus, who knows us completely and never leaves us.This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.Visit our websiteFollow us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

What does it mean to have a good name? In a world obsessed with personal branding, online reputation, and social media image, the Bible offers a completely different perspective on what makes a name worth having.Drawing from Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, James, and Philippians, this message explores the biblical meaning of a name, why God calls people by name, and what it actually takes to build a life of lasting character and legacy.Whether you are thinking about the legacy you are leaving for your children, working through the consequences of past mistakes, or carrying a label that someone else placed on you, this message speaks directly to the question of identity, character, and where to find grace for a fresh start.This is a message for anyone asking questions like: How do I build a life of integrity? What does the Bible say about legacy and character? How do I recover from a damaged reputation? What does God think about my identity? How do I leave a meaningful legacy for my family?This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.Visit our websiteFollow us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

How do we make decisions that are not just wise by the world's standards, but aligned with God's will? In Proverbs, we find a clear picture of biblical wisdom: trusting God, seeking His direction, and allowing His Word to guide our choices.In this message, we explore what true wisdom looks like, how to seek God's guidance in everyday decisions, and the lessons we can learn from Solomon's life. Through Proverbs, Paul's missionary journeys, and practical steps for seeking God's direction, we discover that wisdom is not just about making the right choice—it's about living in a way that brings glory to God.This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.Speaker — Mary Jean PowersVisit our websiteFollow us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

Our words carry incredible power. In Proverbs, Solomon teaches that wisdom isn't just about what we know—it's revealed in how we speak. This message explores three marks of wise speech: listening before responding, speaking truthfully, and using our words to bring life rather than tear others down.No matter where our communication habits came from, Jesus is able to transform the way we speak. As we remember the life-giving words God has spoken over us—chosen, forgiven, redeemed, and loved—we learn to reflect His grace in every conversation.This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.Visit our websiteFollow us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

What does the Bible actually say about building a healthy family? Whether your home is a place of peace or a source of deep pain, Scripture offers real and practical wisdom for every kind of household. This teaching draws from Proverbs, the Parable of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15, and the love chapter of 1 Corinthians 13 to explore what it looks like to build something better, even in the middle of the mess.If you have ever felt like your presence in your family does not matter, or like certain relationships are beyond repair, this message is for you. God's heart is toward your home. He is not waiting for you to have everything figured out before He moves. He is already watching the road.This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.Visit our websiteFollow us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

What would you ask for if God offered you anything? Most of us would reach for money, comfort, or security. Solomon asked for wisdom, and what happened next changed everything.In a world flooded with information, conspiracy theories, and instant answers, genuine wisdom has never been harder to find. The book of Proverbs and the life of Solomon offer something different: a real, practical path toward wisdom for everyday life.This teaching explores what wisdom actually is, why it matters more than information, and how ordinary people can grow in it. Drawing from 1 Kings 3, Proverbs, the book of James, and the story of Job, we look at three concrete ways to pursue wisdom in real life.This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.Visit our websiteFollow us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

Are you feeling spiritually drained, distracted, or disconnected? Life gets busy, and faith can quietly take a back seat without us even realizing it. In First Corinthians 16:13-14, the apostle Paul gives five short but powerful commands that serve as a blueprint for staying spiritually strong, no matter what season of life you are in.These five postures of a resilient disciple are: be on your guard, stand firm in the faith, be courageous, be strong, and do everything in love. Each one is rooted in the reality of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, which means they are not about trying harder or doing more on your own. They are about receiving what God has already made available to every believer.Being on your guard means staying spiritually awake and intentional, not letting life just happen to you. Standing firm is about building your life on the unshakable foundation of God's kingdom rather than relying on willpower alone. Courage is not something you generate from within. It is something you receive, because God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind. Strength works the same way. Like a tree drawing life from deep roots, biblical strength comes from God's grace meeting us in our weakness, not from having it all together. And love is the operating system that holds everything else in place, keeping our motives and actions oriented toward others.Whether you are a new believer trying to build a strong foundation, a parent wanting to model faith for your family, or someone who has been walking with God for years and feels like you have drifted, these five postures offer a practical and biblical path back to spiritual vitality.Topics covered include how to stay strong in your faith, overcoming spiritual drift, what the Bible says about courage and strength, how to stand firm in difficult times, the role of love in the Christian life, and how the resurrection of Jesus Christ empowers everyday discipleship.If you are looking for biblical encouragement, practical faith application, or a deeper understanding of what it means to follow Jesus in real life, this is for you.This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.Visit our websiteFollow us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

Don and Tom take on one of investors' biggest blind spots: focusing on tiny costs while ignoring the factors that have a far greater impact on long-term wealth. Using a recent Jason Zweig article as a springboard, they explain how taxes can reduce stock market returns far more than the difference between low-cost fund expense ratios. The discussion covers tax-efficient investing, asset location, ETFs versus mutual funds, dividend taxation, capital gains, and why investors should pay more attention to portfolio design than chasing the lowest possible expense ratio. They also dissect a highly tax-inefficient YieldMax fund tied to MicroStrategy and Bitcoin, illustrating how taxes and poor fund structure can devastate returns. Listener questions cover Morningstar's acquisition of CRSP indexes and whether it threatens Vanguard investors, plus whether a retiree working part-time can contribute earned income to a Roth IRA.0:05 Big-picture investing versus obsessing over tiny details0:39 Why fund expense ratios matter less than most investors think2:06 Jason Zweig's research on taxes reducing long-term market returns3:20 How taxes often outweigh fund expense differences4:06 Qualified dividends versus ordinary income taxation5:03 Why investors should pay attention to after-tax returns5:40 YieldMax funds and the hidden cost of tax inefficiency7:19 The dangers of exotic income-focused ETFs7:48 Why ETFs can be more tax-efficient than mutual funds9:15 Tax knowledge as a critical investing skill10:30 Asset location: where stocks and bonds belong11:20 The YieldMax MicroStrategy fund and Bitcoin losses11:58 The truly important parts of financial planning13:15 Listener question from Longmont, Colorado14:17 Morningstar, CRSP indexes, and Vanguard concerns16:00 Why market-cap indexes are unlikely to be manipulated17:16 Morningstar ratings and conflicts of interest discussion17:58 Thoughts on the military-industrial complex19:23 UFL football, soccer, and sports tangents20:47 Listener question about Roth IRA contributions from part-time work21:30 Filing thresholds and earned income requirements for Roth IRAs23:21 Listener questions, voice submissions, and website tools24:08 AI voices and synthetic Don McDonald25:59 Romper Room memories and closing banterQuestions?
