Wrong thinking can rob us of the life God has already provided through Christ. This message explores the power of renewing our minds and learning to think from an “in Christ” perspective rather than being driven by feelings, circumstances, or lack. Through Scripture, we discover that everything pertaining to life and godliness has already been given to us through Christ's finished work. As we align our thoughts and words with God's truth, we move from striving to receiving, from limitation to possibility, and from earthly perspectives to heaven's reality. Learn how right thinking unlocks what God has already placed within you.

In this sermon, Pastor Kyle Turner challenges us to move beyond simply believing in Jesus and become fully devoted disciples who follow Him. Using the Great Commission, he reminds us that faith was never meant to stay comfortable or self-focused. God calls every believer to wake up spiritually, grow in maturity, live on mission, and pass their faith on to others. True disciples don't just receive from God—they actively help others follow Him too.

What if cat sitting isn't a side-service anymore, but one of the fastest-maturing lanes in professional pet care? Collin sits down with Beth Pasek (Finicky Cat), Shannon Hendon (Ocala Pet Sitting), and Grace Taylor (Furever Friends Cat Sitting) to unpack why cat-only services are growing, what "maturing" looks like in client expectations, and how education around stress, behavior, and enrichment is reshaping demand. They discuss how veterinary-adjacent care shows up in real homes (especially with medical cases) and why language, scope, and standards matter as specialization increases. The group also tackles pricing, staffing, team structures, and the realities of cash flow when revenue is seasonal and peaky. The takeaway: cat sitting is not a fad, it's segmenting, professionalizing, and creating new opportunities for operators who build standards and stick to them. Main topics: Cat sitting industry growth and maturity Cat stress, behavior, enrichment Medical cats and scope Pricing, staffing, team models Technology, automation, reliability Main takeaway: "Businesses live and die on cash flow." That's true in every industry, but it's especially true in cat sitting, where busy seasons can feel like a tidal wave and slow months can sneak up fast. The answer isn't panic pricing or breaking your standards to "stay busy." It's knowing your patterns, planning ahead, and building a model that's honest about the highs and lows. Your care can be excellent and still fail if the business side isn't stable. Cat sitting is growing, so let's build it to last. About our guests: Beth Pasek runs Finicky Cat Sitting and Behavior in Cleveland, Ohio, with a cats-only focus and deep experience supporting behavior and medical-needs cases. Shannon Hendon is the founder of Ocala Pet Sitting in Central Florida and the Vice President of the Florida Pet Services Association, bringing two decades of industry experience and a cat-only transition perspective. Grace Taylor owns Furever Friends Cat Sitting in Baltimore, leading a cats-only team specializing in medical cats and building systems to support high-touch care at scale. Together, they represent a wide range of approaches to feline-focused business models and standards.

What does it look like to live free - and to love your neighbor? This week in our Galatians Sermon Series, Pastor Michael gives a message out of Galatians 5:13-15 on maturing in Christ. Be grown this week!

Are you growing spiritually, or just showing up on Sundays? In this powerful message, "Maturing in the Kingdom: The Power of Delighting in God's Word," we dive deep into what it actually takes to achieve true spiritual maturity. Hint: It doesn't happen by osmosis or just sitting in a church pew! Real growth happens when we intentionally delight in and honor Scripture. If you are ready to move past "Sunday excitement" and become a mature Christian who impacts every single room you enter, this sermon is for you. ✨ In this video, you'll discover: Why God is moved by His Word spoken in faith—not by our complaints or circumstances. How true prosperity and wholeness start from the inside out by renewing your mind. How to train yourself to respond to life's chaotic moments with a powerful "The Scriptures say..." instead of being ruled by your feelings or cultural opinions. It's time to move from spiritual milk to solid food. Let's stop letting our emotions run the show and start letting the Word of God transform our thinking patterns!

Ephesians 4:1-7, 11-15

let's continue to journey on drawing you to God through our Bible study lesson three call Christian maturity through the word. One of the ways we mature in Christ is to study his word diligently and apply it to our lives. we must allow the holy Spirit to ultimately guide us through the word to understand what God was trying to tell the people at the time and also what we can glean from the word today. take the journey with us and enjoy. you can contact us at church at www.witcfc.com or you can call and leave a message at our office at 314-279-1680. we will send you a copy if you leave us your email address.

The measure of our delight in God's Word is dependant on how much we believers value it. God will not override our will and make us delight in what He says, we have to put effort into it! And the wonderful thing is when you delight in His Word, God rewards you even more in your life - like a gift that just keeps on giving! It will change your life!

How you treat the Word of God determines the direction of your spiritual life. Jesus didn't just perform miracles—He proclaimed truth. His Word carried authority, freedom, healing, and life. And when we receive His Word with hunger and expectation, it stops being information and becomes transformation. The Greek word “paralambano” means to take as your own. God's Word was never meant to stay at arm's length—it was meant to dwell richly within you, to become so rooted in your heart that when life squeezes you, His truth flows out. This isn't about religious routine. It's about making room for the Word to shape your home, your decisions, your marriage, your faith, and your future. Don't just hear the Word. Receive it. Live it. Carry it.

We are unable to reply on this app, so include phone # or email address.In this episode, host Tim Hopper is joined by seasoned deacon McRay Simmons to reflect on what it means to grow in maturity and perseverance in diaconal ministry. Drawing on more than two decades of experience, McRay emphasizes spiritual growth shaped by the Holy Spirit's work through years of service. The conversation highlights common challenges deacons face—discouragement, overwhelming workloads, and the temptation to rely on their own strength rather than the Lord. A central theme throughout the episode is the need for intentional dependence on God through prayer, as McRay candidly reflects on his own struggle with a “do-first” mindset and the ongoing call to repentance and humility in service. The episode also underscores the importance of fellowship, communication, and mutual encouragement among deacons, especially in difficult seasons or contexts where resources may be limited. McRay shares how relationships with fellow deacons, elders, and his own family have sustained him, and offers practical encouragement in delegation, caring for one's household, and maintaining spiritual health while serving others. This episode underscores the reality that diaconal ministry requires perseverance, prayer, and a continual reliance on the Lord, who sustains His servants as they press on in their calling. Referenced in this episode:The OPC Deacon Check-In programThe Reformed Deacon podcastThe 2026 National Diaconal Summit (now at capacity, but a waitlist is in place)You can find all of our episodes at thereformeddeacon.org.

  Host: Dan Panetti   1 Corinthians 13:11 - When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways.   How can you mature from boyhood to manhood: Mature from being reactive in your speaking to reflective - thinking about what you say, why you say it, and how it will be received. Mature in your thinking from being stuck in the here and now to thinking about how things will impact the future Mature in how you reason and understand things, not with you at the center, but with Christ at the center and you playing an important role in stewarding the things that He has given you.

The best way to learn how to pray is by listening to people who know how. It's more caught than taught. Mature pray-ers have certain attitudes in the way they approach God. They are obviously confident He hears them and that their prayers are making a diference. There is an intimacy and warmth in the way they converse with Him and a profound trust that He is good and loving and is there listening to every word. They seem to enjoy what they are doing and are actually refreshed by it. And it's usually something they've built into their lives in a disciplined way. Often there's a set time of day and a simple structure they'll follow, yet within that structure there's room for much spontaneity. They feel free to talk to Him about whatever or whoever is on their heart. And mixed into this conversation is a lot of listening as well. God talks to them just as they talk to Him. So answers may be received even while needs are being voiced. Today, in this portion of Paul's letter to the Romans, he gives us a glimpse into his prayer life. We get to listen to a man with a mature prayer life tell us about a matter for which he has been praying a long time without growing discouraged. Let's listen and learn.

I love conversations that challenge the way we think about leadership and who we're becoming.On this episode of Mature Me, I sit down with my friend @ryanleak, a husband and father of two, New York Times best selling author and speaker.We talk about the moments that shape you- from his surprise wedding that gained national attention to his connection to Kobe and practicing with the NBA. We talk what it looks like to actually process loss and how stillness before God becomes essential in seasons of pressure.Ryan shares the shift that changed everything. Moving from chasing success to chasing failure. Letting go of fear and stepping into rooms believing God has already gone before you.If your communication is about you, it's ego. If it's for others, it's impact. Maturing is learning how to lay down the crown you were never meant to carry.

Maturing in our faith is not meant to happen in isolation—it's a byproduct of doing life within the Body of Christ. Belonging to the family of God is an invitation to grow, to be stretched, and ultimately to look more like Jesus. In this message, Banning Liebscher invites us into a deeper and more holistic understanding of God's design for His Church. Discipleship and spiritual maturity go hand in hand, and the community of believers plays a vital role in shaping who we become. What perspectives might be hindering our growth where God has planted us? How might the cultures we cultivate in our churches either support or stifle the process of maturing in Christ? This message challenges and encourages us to partner with God's heart for the Body—to champion one another, pursue genuine discipleship, and grow into the fullness of who we are called to be in Christ, together.

Interview with Maura Kolb, President of Dryden Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/dryden-gold-tsxvdry-11m-exploration-budget-funds-32000m-program-in-high-grade-gold-district-9261Recording date: 2nd March 2026Dryden Gold Corp. (TSXV:DRY) is one of the more technically coherent high-grade gold exploration stories in the Canadian junior sector. The company holds an 80,000-hectare land package in northwestern Ontario, hosts mineralisation grading up to 53,700 grams per tonne gold, and is advancing a fully funded 32,000-metre drill programme in 2026 aimed at building the discovery footprint toward a future multi-million ounce resource.The company's primary focus is the Gold Rock target area, which has undergone a material transformation in the two years since systematic exploration began. At the outset, geologists had mapped three mineralised structures within the target. That count has now reached 15 parallel structures, with two separate drill holes separated by 500 metres of strike confirming the same structural inventory at each intersection. That spatial consistency is a meaningful geological signal: it suggests the system is not a series of isolated occurrences but a laterally continuous mineralised corridor with repeating, predictable architecture.The most recent drilling also extended the Big Master system, a secondary gold structure within Gold Rock, to a true depth of 460 metres, more than four times its previously drilled vertical extent. This depth extension effectively doubles the size of that target and introduces a meaningful question about the system's behaviour at depth, which the 2026 programme is well-positioned to begin answering.The company's broader geological model, the "string of pearls" thesis, holds that the 20-kilometre Gold Rock trend will ultimately host multiple discrete deposits, each analogous to the individual mines that define the Red Lake gold camp. The Mud Lake discovery last summer, which displays a geological footprint consistent with the Gold Rock target area, provides early validation of this model. Two further anomalies on the same trend remain untested and will be drilled in 2026.A property-wide soil geochemistry programme has added a further dimension to the targeting picture. The results align with the structural model, with the most pronounced anomalies occurring at the intersections the geological team had already identified as highest priority. The Hyndman target on the eastern side of the property is an emerging area of interest, with soil data indicating that initial drill holes tested only a fraction of the anomalous system.From a capital structure perspective, Dryden Gold is differentiated by its lean operating model. There is no corporate office; management and technical staff are based on-site in Dryden. Approximately 80% of all capital raised has been deployed directly into exploration. Centerra Gold holds a 9.9% strategic stake, providing third-party validation of the geological thesis without creating near-term dilution pressure.Management has been explicit about deferring a resource estimate until sufficient discovery footprint has been established to support a resource at institutional scale. The 2026 field season with 32,000 metres of funded drilling across multiple high-priority targets represents the most significant exploration period in the company's history to date, and the results will be the primary driver of value through the year.View Dryden Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/dryden-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

While Stanford University found that AI investments, optimism, and accessibility are rising, a recent MIT report suggests that 95 percent of organizations are realizing no returns on their generative AI investments. Research from Accenture found that only 8 percent of companies are scaling AI at an enterprise level and embedding the technology into core business strategy to maximize value. Mismatched expectations, misaligned applications, and poorly executed or untested implementation practices—not the technology itself—often keep organizations from realizing immediate value from an AI investment. For AI to increase efficiency, productivity, and value while conserving resources and lowering overall costs, organizations need to shift their focus from hype-driven experimentation to foundational capabilities and practical, measurable outcomes. In our latest podcast from the Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute, Dr. Ipek Ozkaya, technical director of AI-Native Software Engineering, sits down with Matthew Butkovic, technical director of Risk and Resilience in the SEI's CERT Division, to discuss their work on an AI Adoption Maturity Model that organizations can use to create a roadmap for predictable AI adoption and realization of AI benefits.

The midlife crisis. The anxiety attacks. An 18 month season that felt messy and disorienting. A detangling of identity, pace, and pressure.We talk about manhood and suffering. About grief and how to handle death. Growing your no. Changing your pace. Being present. One thing at time. Maturing is not avoiding pain. It's learning how to walk through it without losing your soul.Tune into the premiere tonight at 7:30PM on the Rich Wilkerson Jr. YouTube Channel

2026 marks my 13th year of mediumship development. In this episode, I reflect on what has truly sustained me on this path — not the phenomena, not the validation, not the performance — but the maturation process of ego, soul, and service. Mediumship is not about becoming special. It is about becoming spiritually mature. Through the lens of the energy centers, I explore how mediumship development mirrors human development: • Root — belonging, inherited beliefs, humiliation and dignity • Sacral — emotional awareness, “Is this mine?”, energetic repair • Solar Plexus — qualifiers, authority, ego maturation   Spirit School Retreat June 2026 Applications are Open! https://www.daniellesearancke.com/spirit-school-retreat
