John and Sarah discuss the ethics of marital infidelity, the government breaking promises to themselves on spending, Tony Holohan's Presidential bid, and Molly Malone's bronze boobies.

Open Forum: Pastor Amos reflected on the past year since closing the CFE local church in Atlanta, realizing his focus should have been on building community groups rather than traditional structures, which has led to a plan to launch CFE community groups in multiple cities starting in September. He emphasized the importance of adhering strictly to God's blueprint, using biblical stories and parables to illustrate the dangers of deviating from divine instruction, and highlighted the need for discernment even when advice comes from religious authorities. Discussions with Bose and Deborah explored balancing trust in church leadership with personal spiritual guidance, the significance of genuine mentorship in non-denominational churches, and navigating leadership challenges through faith. Marital dynamics were examined, with Pastor Amos and others discussing biblical submission, reconciling disagreements, and overcoming negative patterns influenced by spiritual factors. Practical advice was also shared on handling a bee sting, and Pastor Amos introduced the "working genius" concept to enhance group functionality. He concluded with gratitude for participant contributions and a prayer for healing and strength.

Ever woken up in a sweat because your husband ninja-changed the thermostat? Or caught him bingeing your show while you slept like it was no big deal? SAME. In this short and spicy episode, I'm diving into the micro-annoyances that aren't grounds for divorce… but definitely grounds for a dramatic sigh and maybe a blanket tug-of-war. We're talking snack theft, dishwasher sabotage, one-sip-left offenses, and the emotional support sandwich he stole. It's petty, it's real, it's marriage. Because the truth is, love isn't just in the big moments—it's in the daily battles over coffee cups and covers. Laugh with me (or send it to your partner as a gentle warning). Because if you can laugh about it? You're doing just fine.   Connect with me, I'd love any suggestions for future episodes.

Rev. Jeff McDonald - July 6, 2025

Diverse Voices Book Review host Hopeton Hay interviewed Ivy Pochoda, author of ECSTASY.  Based on a Greek tragedy by Euripides, Pochoda explained how she wanted to address difficult truths about female oppression and marital patriarchy. As described on her website, "Ecstasy is a riveting, darkly poetic, one-sitting read about empowerment, desire, and what happens when women reject the roles set out for them."  Diverse Voices Book Review Social Media: Facebook - @diversevoicesbookreview Instagram - @diverse_voices_book_review

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has had a headline-grabbing week underscored by both public appearances and personal developments that are fueling further curiosity about the pop star's next chapter. On June 29, Justin and Hailey Bieber were spotted dancing and looking affectionate in the VIP section at Martin Garrix's Los Angeles show. According to InStyle, the couple's playful moment, with Justin shirtless and Hailey spinning him around, was caught on fan videos and widely shared on social media, serving as a rare display of unity amid ongoing rumors of marital tension. These public displays have only intensified speculation about the state of their relationship, especially as reports from Entertainment Tonight and other outlets suggest a “rough patch” behind the scenes, centering on Justin's supposed lack of motivation and Hailey's frustration with his attitude. Despite the rumors, Hailey was seen wearing her engagement ring during a solo New York weekend, keeping fans guessing about the true nature of their marriage.Instagram has also been buzzing with Justin's recent activity. On June 26, according to People, he posted a carousel featuring his son Jack Blues and simultaneously changed his Instagram username to @lilbieber, departing from his traditional full-name handle. The rebranding has not been officially explained but marks a notable shift in his social media strategy. Alongside the family glimpses, fans have noticed a string of cryptic posts, including reflections on forgiveness and emotional well-being. He's openly shared messages about conflict and mental health, referencing personal struggles and trauma, which have further grabbed the attention of followers and gossip bloggers alike.On the business front, Justin's entrepreneurial reach continues to expand. E! News recently highlighted his presence at night events and his ongoing investment activities while Max Tornow's business coverage and Fintech Wealth's YouTube analysis both spotlighted the massive scale of Bieber's empire. He's moved well beyond music, with ventures like the Drew House fashion line, strategic investments in tech startups like MoonPay and Wave, and reputedly lucrative catalog sales now defining his financial portfolio. Just last week, a Bieber-backed NFT fashion pop-up called InBetweeners debuted in New York, blending digital collectibles and exclusive apparel with a high-profile launch party. These moves are widely seen as a model for artists diversifying and leveraging their personal brand into lasting wealth beyond the charts.Meanwhile, social media reactions to Justin's recent appearances remain mixed, with some fans expressing concern for his emotional state at Rhode events and in public, while others admire his continued resilience and evolving identity as both artist and business mogul. All eyes now remain on the Biebers as fans—and detractors—await the couple's next steps, both personally and professionally.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has been dominating headlines and social feeds over the past few days, but not always for reasons his fans might hope. After sparking concern with a string of close-up, cryptic posts on Instagram—including now infamous nipple shots and selfie musings—Bieber shocked fans by changing his Instagram handle from @justinbieber to @lilbieber, his first username switch since joining the platform, and sparking wild speculation about a possible rebrand or even a new musical direction. Star Magazine reports that some fans on X joked about the name hinting at a rap alter ego, while others saw the shift as a cultural reset, but the confusion and worry about his well-being remain front and center. On June 16, Bieber shared an emotional message on Instagram confessing to anger and mental health struggles, saying plainly, “People keep telling me to heal. Don't you think if I could have fixed myself I would have already? I know I'm broken. I know I have anger issues.” This candor, while resonant for some, only heightened concern among fans and those close to him, as insiders tell Star Magazine his inner circle are “deeply concerned about his behavior” and fear his current path is “toxic and totally untenable.”In tandem with the social media drama, Bieber's marriage to Hailey Bieber is under intense scrutiny. Cosmopolitan and The Sun have reported that the couple, who looked picture-perfect in recent outings with their infant son Jack Blues Bieber, are facing serious marital struggles. Hailey was reportedly seen without her wedding ring—though it did return—and insiders cite Justin's irritability and Hailey's frustration with how much of their private drama is being aired publicly. She is said to be “beyond furious” with his social media behavior and even begged him to lay low, but so far he seems determined to do things his way. TMZ featured commentary from Dr. Drew, who cited Bieber's public outbursts as likely fueled by love life turmoil rather than career or fame stress, and highlighted just how much stakes have risen now that the couple are parents.On the business front, Justin has officially cut ties with his Drew House clothing brand and is now heavily teasing a new fashion line called SKYLRK on Instagram, sharing previews of sweatshirts, sunglasses, phone cases, and bold-colored slide sandals. Some fans pointed out that his SKYLRK phone case closely resembles one sold by Hailey's billion-dollar Rhode brand, sparking speculation about creative overlap or competition in the Bieber household. Hailey herself, despite the drama, remains professionally focused, retaining a leadership role at Rhode after its recent sale to e.l.f. Beauty.Most recently, Bieber was spotted dining at Bar Pitti in New York City, drawing interest from paparazzi and fans alike. In short, while the couple is putting on a united public front—posing for pictures with their son and even appearing together at Rhode events—behind the scenes, the tension is unmistakable and observers remain on high alert for what comes next. For now, the world watches as Justin Bieber balances the chaos of personal struggles, family pressures, and a possible reinvention—one eyebrow-raising Instagram post at a time.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

We were shooting some video footage of a group of teenagers and they were kind of surprised when they saw the result on a TV screen. We were seated in a little cluster on the floor discussing various youth issues, and what surprised them was the fact that when they saw it on the screen they realized we had focused close-up on each individual as they were commenting. Of course, they went, "Oh, no! Look at me!" See, they thought it was going to be this big group shot. We didn't want the viewers to be distracted by anyone else, so most of the time we would zoom our lens in a real tight close-up, so you would only see one person. The telephoto effect actually makes a big difference. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Love Through a Telephoto Lens." Now, our word for today from the Word of God comes from Proverbs 5:15, and it's talking about married love. It speaks about it in symbolic terms and then gets pretty direct. "Drink water from your own cistern, running water from your own well. Should your springs overflow in the streets, your streams of water in the public squares? Let them be yours alone, never to be shared with strangers. May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth." And then God expresses here as the Inventor of sex that He is, some of the joy that He intended married couples to have, "A loving doe," it says, "a graceful deermay her breasts satisfy you always, may you ever be captivated by her love." This is really a passage about focused love. It's about a man who has eyes for only one woman and doesn't let his springs overflow anywhere else, who really has decided there's only one place for his love. As a result he enjoys a fulfilling and exciting relationship with her. Now, whether you're a husband or a wife, this secret of happiness is still the same. Marital and sexual fulfillment is the byproduct of focused love. Lasered love. Notice here it says, "Let your ability to express love be yours alone" in so many words. And then in the King James Version, I like the way it says, "Rejoice with the wife of your youth. Let her satisfy you always." In other words there's a choice here. Let her/let him be enough. I choose to focus my telephoto lens on one person; there's no one else in my picture. As soon as you widen your focus, the discontentment, the dissatisfaction begins. Maybe you've been allowing other fantasies into your heart; maybe some of those sites you visited have fueled that kind of mental unfaithfulness. Where should your heart be? Focusing all your fantasies on your husband or your wife. Those sexually-oriented pictures, the ads, the videos, the movies, the websites - they let other women and other men into a place that should be reserved for just one person. That's the way The Creator made it. Maybe you joke about having a wandering eye. That's no joke! It dilutes your focus on that one man and that one woman. The soap opera love affairs, the flirtations with that other person, all those mental wanderings erode the excitement of focused love. Don't betray your lifetime partner in your fantasies. You'll both lose. Decide to let her or let him be enough. Ask for Christ's strength to narrow your focus and you'll see just a close-up on one person. The best of married love is for those who choose love through that telephoto lens.

In today's episode, we're diving into a powerful truth: the health of your marriage often comes down to what you choose to focus on. It's easy to fixate on what's not working, letting small annoyances grow into mountains of frustration. But what if the key to deeper connection and lasting joy is found in a simple but radical posture—gratitude? We'll explore how contentment isn't resignation, but an intentional choice to see the blessings amidst the imperfections. You'll hear honest reflections on prioritizing your spouse, the life-giving role of quality time, and how to navigate conflict in ways that build satisfaction, not resentment. Whether you're newly married or decades in, this conversation is a fresh reminder that gratitude, not settling, is the foundation of a thriving Christian marriage.   Episode highlights: Feeling content in marriage is different from settling. There's a way to work through conflict that makes both spouses feel more satisfied. Healthy conflict resolution is one of the strongest predictors of marriage satisfaction.  Silent discontentment leads to resentment that erodes at the foundation of your marriage.  The key is finding solutions that honor both spouses perspectives.   Questions to reflect: What are three things about our marriage that you're grateful for right now? Are there any small annoyances in our relationship that we've let build up? How can we address them gently and respectfully? How can we be more intentional about choosing each other—especially in the areas where our preferences or personalities differ?   Quotes from today's episode: “I found myself focusing on the things that weren't working in my marriage instead of thinking about the things that were.” “Small annoyances can grow into mountains of frustration” “Settling comes from a place of resignation” “Contentment flows from gratitude, an intentional choice we make.” “Contentment says I see the imperfections in our marriage but I choose to focus on the blessings.” “Nancy comes before my personal preferences.” “The key word is choice.” “Have a posture of gratitude while understanding there is room for growth.” “Quality time is oxygen for your marriage” "There's a way to work through conflict that makes both spouses feel more satisfied."

The author, coach, influencer industry is on it's way out.     Love it or hate it, it's the truth.    Back in the early 2000s, the Nigerian prince emails started coming out.     They were scamming people and soon after, Nigerians started getting arrested and the scam was exposed.    Something simliar happened to EBay.    Craigslist, same thing.    When I started doing the online information business, I made videos.    I'd purchase a camera.    Editing services.    And hosting services.    Youtube only allowed for 8 minute videos, so I had to create an hour long training and sell it as a package.    Over time, Youtube opened up the recording to 10 minutes and I was able to expand things and cut expenses.    Back in 2020, this industry started to really explode.    What I learned was those who couldn't or didn't know how to operate a business, started coaching people.    That's what I did as a result of not being allowed to make loans in the mortgagge industry.    But I was able to coach people on how to use social media and was able to make a living.    Right now, all of the coaches, influencers, and authors are starting to be exposed.    Marital challenges.    Financial hardships.    Everything was getting exposed.    I'm the Kat Williams of this industry and I know all the secrets.     I just store it and people are really struggling to sell event tickets.    I'm having a hard time now selling tickets.    But I'm okay with it.    I don't want to be grouped in with the grifters, and reduced my prices by 80% in Apex.     I'd feel like an asshole charging you $150K to coach with me.     This is why I made the pivot into Closer Capital............   In a season of people asking for you to donate or fund their investment deals, I'm loaning it out and I've already crushed my 5 year plan.    Lean in and listen.    I've laid the roadmap out for you right here.    About the THC Podcast  Nothing is off-limits in these weekly episodes of the Hardcore Closer Podcast with Ryan Stewman.  Politics, Finance, Religion, Tin-foil hat theories, and interdimensional space aliens.  Ryan Stewman takes a very factual approach to simplifying the most complex things we are experiencing in real time in this timeline.  Leave your feelings at the door and buckle up for a fresh perspective with no fluff, and just the hardcore stuff that reality is made of.
