In this message, “Making Room for More”, Johannes Escudero unpacks how true generosity starts with intentional stewardship. Teaching from Leviticus 23, Johannes reminds us that in God's Kingdom, generosity and tithing go hand in hand. When we understand our margin, we can make room for more of what God wants to do through us.
BONUS: The Evolution of Agile - From Project Management to Adaptive Intelligence, With Mario Aiello In this BONUS episode, we explore the remarkable journey of Mario Aiello, a veteran agility thinker who has witnessed and shaped the evolution of Agile from its earliest days. Now freshly retired, Mario shares decades of hard-won insights about what works, what doesn't, and where Agile is headed next. This conversation challenges conventional thinking about methodologies, certifications, and what it truly means to be an Agile coach in complex environments. The Early Days: Agilizing Before Agile Had a Name "I came from project management and project management was, for me, was not working. I used to be a wishful liar, basically, because I used to manipulate reports in such a way that would please the listener. I knew it was bullshit." Mario's journey into Agile began around 2001 at Sun Microsystems, where he was already experimenting with iterative approaches while the rest of the world was still firmly planted in traditional project management. Working in Palo Alto, he encountered early adopters discussing Extreme Programming and had an "aha moment" - realizing that concepts like short iterations, feedback loops, and learning could rescue him from the unsustainable madness of traditional project management. He began incorporating these ideas into his work with PRINCE2, calling stages "iterations" and making them as short as possible. His simple agile approach focused on: work on the most important thing first, finish it, then move to the next one, cooperate with each other, and continuously improve. The Trajectory of Agile: From Values to Mechanisms "When the craze of methodologies came about, I started questioning the commercialization and monetization of methodologies. That's where things started to get a little bit complicated because the general focus drifted from values and principles to mechanisms and metrics." Mario describes witnessing three distinct phases in Agile's evolution. The early days were authentic - software developers speaking from the heart about genuine needs for new ways of working. The Agile Manifesto put important truths in front of everyone. However, as methodologies became commercialized, the focus shifted dangerously away from the core values and principles toward prescriptive mechanisms, metrics, and ceremonies. Mario emphasizes that when you focus on values and principles, you discover the purpose behind changing your ways of working. When you focus only on mechanics, you end up just doing things without real purpose - and that's when Agile became a noun, with people trying to "be agile" instead of achieving agility. He's clear that he's not against methodologies like Scrum, XP, SAFe, or LeSS - but rather against their mindless application without understanding the essence behind them. Making Sense Before Methodology: The Four-Fit Framework "Agile for me has to be fit for purpose, fit for context, fit for practice, and I even include a fourth dimension - fit for improvement." Rather than jumping straight to methodology selection, Mario advocates for a sense-making approach. First, understand your purpose - why do you want Agile? Then examine your context - where do you live, how does your company work? Only after making sense of the gap between your current state and where the values and principles suggest you should be, should you choose a methodology. This might mean Scrum for complex environments, or perhaps a flow-based approach for more predictable work, or creating your own hybrid. The key insight is that anyone who understands Agile's principles and values is free to create their own approach - it's fundamentally about plan, do, inspect, and adapt. Learning Through Failure: Context is Paramount "I failed more often than I won. That teaches you - being brave enough to say I failed, I learned, I move on because I'm going to use it better next time." Mario shares pivotal learning moments from his career, including an early attempt to "agilize PRINCE2" in a command-and-control startup environment. While not an ultimate success, this battle taught him that context is paramount and cannot be ignored. You must start by understanding how things are done today - identifying what's good (keep doing it), what's bad (try to improve it), and what's ugly (eradicate it to the extent possible). This lesson shaped his next engagement at a 300-person organization, where he spent nearly five months preparing the organizational context before even introducing Scrum. He started with "simple agile" practices, then took a systems approach to the entire delivery system. A Systems Approach: From Idea to Cash "From the moment sales and marketing people get brilliant ideas they want built, until the team delivers them into production and supports them - all that is a system. You cannot have different parts finger-pointing." Mario challenges the common narrow view of software development systems. Rather than focusing only on prioritization, development, and testing, he advocates for considering everything that influences delivery - from conception through to cash. His approach involved reorganizing an entire office floor, moving away from functional silos (sales here, marketing there, development over there) to value stream-based organization around products. Everyone involved in making work happen, including security, sales, product design, and client understanding, is part of the system. In one transformation, he shifted security from being gatekeepers at the end of the line to strategic partners from day one, embedding security throughout the entire value stream. This comprehensive systems thinking happened before formal Scrum training began. Beyond the Job Description: What Can an Agile Coach Really Do? "I said to some people, I'm not a coach. I'm just somebody that happens to have experience. How can I give something that can help and maybe influence the system?" Mario admits he doesn't qualify as a coach by traditional standards - he has no formal coaching qualifications. His coaching approach comes from decades of Rugby experience and focuses on establishing relationships with teams, understanding where they're going, and helping them make sense of their path forward. He emphasizes adaptive intelligence - the probe, sense, respond cycle. Rather than trying to change everything at once and capsizing the boat, he advocates for challenging one behavior at a time, starting with the most important, encouraging adaptation, and probing quickly to check for impact of specific changes. His role became inviting people to think outside the box, beyond the rigidity of their training and certifications, helping individuals and teams who could then influence the broader system even when organizational change seemed impossible. The Future: Adaptive Intelligence and Making Room for Agile "I'm using a lot of adaptive intelligence these days - probe, sense, respond, learn and adapt. That sequence will take people places." Looking ahead, Mario believes the valuable core of Agile - its values and principles - will remain, but the way we apply them must evolve. He advocates for adaptive intelligence approaches that emphasize sense-making and continuous learning rather than rigid adherence to frameworks. As he enters retirement, Mario is determined to make room for Agile in his new life, seeking ways to give back to the community through his blog, his new Substack "Adaptive Ways," and by inviting others to think differently. He's exploring a "pay as you wish" approach to sharing his experience, recognizing that while he may not be a traditional coach or social media expert, his decades of real-world experience - with its failures and successes - holds value for those still navigating the complexity of organizational change. About Mario Aiello Retired from full-time work, Mario is an agility thinker shaped by real-world complexity, not dogma. With decades in VUCA environments, he blends strategic clarity, emotional intelligence, and creative resilience. He designs context-driven agility, guiding teams and leaders beyond frameworks toward genuine value, adaptive systems, and meaningful transformation.

At electric vehicle charging stations across the US, some drivers overstay their time at “fast-chargers,” which are designed to help drivers quickly charge their cars and get back on the road. To resolve this unkind behavior, one of the largest charging networks has implemented strict time limits at some of its busiest stations. When a vehicle's battery charge reaches eighty-five percent, the driver must make room for the next car in need of a charge. The apostle Paul encouraged believers in Jesus to humbly “value others above [themselves]” (Philippians 2:3). He addressed an issue that was grating the Philippian church—self-centeredness. The people desired recognition and distinction, not from pure motives but from “selfish ambition” (v. 3). Paul urged the believers to have the mind of Christ and to look “to the interests of the others” (v.4). This didn’t mean that they should forget their own needs in an unhealthy way, but that they would care for others' needs as those who “have the same mindset as Christ Jesus” (v. 5). The apostle encouraged the Philippians to empty themselves of pride and to humbly make room for others. The ultimate motivation for making room? Love. As we seek to imitate Christ’s example each day (vv. 6-11), He can help us make room for others by viewing them with His loving eyes.

On a July morning in 1960, Jane Goodall stepped off a boat onto the shores of Lake Tanganyika in Tanzania. She was 26, untrained by universities, armed only with binoculars, a notebook and patience. What she saw in the forests of Gombe in East Africa altered science itself: chimpanzees who shaped tools, who mourned, who loved. She gave them names and with that simple act, insisted on their individuality. But Goodall did more than open a window into the lives of chimpanzees. She opened doors for women. In an era when female scientists were almost absent, she, alongside gorilla researcher Dian Fossey and orangutan expert Biruté Galdikas, staked a claim in a field dominated by men. Reluctant at first, passionate in time, she traded the intimacy of the forest for activism on world stages, becoming a gentle but firm voice for nature and for children who would inherit it. On Wednesday (October 1, 2025), Jane Goodall died at 91. She was still on tour, still speaking for the wild. Will we carry her hope and continue the path she opened for women in science? In this weekender episode, we talk about how Goodall's life reshaped research, storytelling and the role of women in conservation.

As the first Christians made room for sincere love and hospitality inside the community of faith, the New Testament reveals that Christ brought them into new places of spiritual maturity. In his letter to the church in Romans, Paul helps the early church to see that it is from that maturity that they are equipped and sent to bring the same grace and courage into a riskier, less inviting world.
Jazzy vocalist Mae Powell has experienced a major break-up. The kind of major break-up that led her to move to the farm where her mom lives so that she could take the time to process and figure out her next steps. Eventually she wrote “Where Will Love Go?” for her new album Making Room for the Light. Accustomed to devoting all of her attention to that one person that was no longer there, Powell felt overwhelmed by the love and care that she could no longer funnel through. Writing helped her figure things out and led her to realize that she’d need to learn to love herself before she could send that love anywhere else.

Jesus' ministry was defined by the table. He made outsiders insiders and used meals to teach grace. We'll explore Luke 14:12–24 and the radical hospitality of the kingdom. Opening our homes is a spiritual discipline, not a social luxury. When we understand our homes as extensions of God's grace in our lives, then we aren't letting people into our space, we are making space for people in God's grace.

In this episode, we dig into what it really means to make room at the table. We reflect on how the Lord has made room for us at His table and the importance of following His example. For some, hospitality feels natural, while for others it can feel uncomfortable—but it always begins with the heart. We talk through checking our hearts, the practical steps of preparing to host, and the call to be obedient even when it's hard. Most of all, we want you to remember this truth: God created you to be uniquely you, with a powerful purpose on this planet.
Play, connection, and the chaos of everyday parenting - this episode of Mucked Up My Self-Care dives into how play can be both a lifeline and a stressor for moms. Jill and Linda share real stories of finding joy in messy moments, how intentional play shifts their energy, and why sometimes self-care looks like sitting on the floor with your kids (even when you'd rather not). From sibling squabbles to popsicle-stick self-care activities, they explore how to weave self-care into family life without losing themselves.In this episode, you'll learn:How highs and lows can help reframe both overwhelm and joy in motherhood.Why play is a surprising but powerful form of self-care for moms (and kids).Practical ways to use play to reset your family's energy when chaos hits.When play works and when it totally backfires.Creative ideas for simple, low-energy play activities (like cars on your back or popsicle-stick self-care).How to navigate overstimulation when everyone wants your attention at once.The importance of shifting perspective so self-care doesn't just become survival care.Self-care doesn't always mean time away, it often means stepping into the chaos with a different lens. Whether it's pulling out a board game, painting flowerpots, or letting your child drive toy cars across your back, play can become an unexpected pathway to connection and care. And yes, sometimes it's messy, interrupted, and imperfect, but that's what makes it real. Until next week, we hope you can unstuck your muck!
Are you running on empty? In a world that celebrates hustle, many of us live with no room to breathe—no margin in our schedules, budgets, emotions, or spiritual lives. In this practical and powerful series, Margin: Making Space for What Matters, we'll learn how to create healthy space in four key areas: time, finances, emotions, and faith. God never meant for us to live maxed out and burnt out. When we build margin into our lives, we make room for rest, generosity, peace, and deeper connection with God and others. Discover how less stress and more space can actually lead to more purpose.

In a world that constantly pushes us to hustle harder and do more, this week's conversation is a breath of fresh air. I sat down with the wise and grace-filled Kari Kampakis, and she reminded us of something so important: sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is make peace with accomplishing less in a day.As parents, it's easy to feel like we need to keep up with everything: our careers, commitments, expectations, and a perfectly run household. But what if slowing down is actually the bravest and most obedient thing we can do? Kari gives us permission to step back, breathe, and create space for the things that really matter.Here are four takeaways from our conversation:How doing less can actually strengthen your parenting and your peaceWhy margin in your schedule creates more room for spiritual growthWays to listen to God's leading in the pace of your family lifeThe freedom that comes when you stop chasing “shoulds” and start embracing “enough”Kari Kampakis is a mom of four daughters, a bestselling author, speaker, and host of The Girl Mom Podcast. Her books, including Love Her Well and More Than a Mom, have encouraged countless women to parent with purpose, grace, and deep faith. Kari's message is always full of wisdom and grounded in truth and this conversation is no different.I hope this episode helps you take a deep breath and remember: you don't have to do it all to be a faithful parent.(00:00) Introduction to Parenting Dynamics(03:08) Navigating the Challenges of Modern Parenting(05:58) Building Lifelong Relationships with Our Children(08:47) The Importance of Connection in Parenting(12:07) Embracing Imperfection in Parenting(16:24) Embracing Vulnerability in Parenting(17:16) Navigating Big Emotions(18:40) Understanding Adolescent Emotional Development(20:32) Staying Grounded as a Parent(24:01) Connecting Before Correcting(27:32) Self-Care for Moms(30:00) Modeling Healthy Behaviors for Future GenerationsConnect with KariKariKampakis.comInstagramGirl Mom podcastResources MentionedKari's booksRaising Kind Daughters episode on The Christian Parenting PodcastChristian Parenting resourcesA Great Cloud of Witnesses prayer journalThe Christian Parenting Podcast is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.

God is goodness in Himself. The miracle of creation is a manifestation of His goodness. In this parable, we are called to recognize that our salvation is not by our our means. Indeed, we cannot redeem ourselves. All we can do is recognize our own sinfulness and beseech God for the grace to assist us in this life. He owes us nothing.
Life gets busy, but Jesus calls us to slow down and make room for people. Learn how to live at God's speed and love others the way He loves us!

If the waiting feels heavy right now, you're not the only one. I know what it's like to carry a longing that hasn't been met yet — to wonder how to keep living fully when the ache is still here.In this mini episode, I'm sharing a practice that's helped me again and again: making room for beauty in the waiting. Because beauty has a way of reviving our hearts when we least expect it. Not as a way to distract yourself, but as a way to breathe, open your heart, and let God meet you here.I'll talk about why beauty can draw you outside of yourself, soften the ache, and even make you more receptive to the gifts He's giving right now. My hope is that you'll leave with encouragement, fresh perspective, and a renewed permission to move slower, look up, and allow beauty to revive you in your waiting.P.S.

Her latest single “Contact High” has origins in conversations with Powell’s elderly neighbor about a song with the spirit of being high socially, but […] The post Mae Powell: “Contact High” appeared first on KUT & KUTX Studios -- Podcasts.

Phyllis and Dr. Glenn Hill sit down with Elijah Runyan, Director of Certified Coaching for Connection Codes, to dive deep into the world of neurodivergence and emotional connection. Both Elijah and Dr. Glenn share personal stories of what it's like to live with unique emotional wiring—where everyday experiences, like dishes left undone or mismatched hangers, can trigger intense pain experiences. Through candid reflections, they reveal how shame and loneliness can take hold when these experiences go unseen or misunderstood, and how learning to process pain instead of judging it opens the door to authentic connection. This episode highlights how the Connection Codes framework—centered on regard, curiosity, and emotional awareness—has transformed their relationships, helping them move from miscommunication to genuine closeness with their families and partners.Links and Resources:Download the Core Emotion Wheel: https://youtube.com/@connectioncodes?si=phORYBsGMOOrj9mAFind out how to become a Certified Coach: https://connectioncodes.co/certified-coachingFind a coach: https://connectioncodes.co/coaches#find-a-coach-menuConnect with Elijah here: https://www.runyanstronghealth.com/Chapters: 00:00:00 - Opening Up: Why This Conversation Matters00:00:56 - What Neurodivergence Really Feels Like00:04:22 - When “Different” Becomes a Daily Struggle00:07:41 - From Shame to Identity: The Pain Behind Control00:12:14 - Why Being Seen Is More Powerful Than Being Helped00:21:15 - Raising Kids While Feeling Misunderstood00:22:22 - Making Room for Everyday Pain00:22:33 - Teaching Compassion Through Lived Experience00:25:10 - Travel, Triggers, and When Systems Break00:26:57 - Navigating Marriage with a Neurodivergent Lens00:29:13 - How We Learn to Speak Each Other's Language00:30:19 - The Great Hanger Debate (Yes, Really)00:32:37 - Celebrating the Things That Set Us Apart00:35:10 - Final Thoughts on Connection, Curiosity, and Courage
