by Aubrey Botha https://cpcchurchimages.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/14130359/July-12-Sermon.mp3 Genesis 25:21-34 21 Isaac prayed to the Lord on behalf of his wife, because she was childless. The Lord answered his prayer, and his wife Rebekah became pregnant. 22 The babies jostled each other within her, and she said, “Why is this happening to me?” So she went to inquire of the Lord. 23 The Lord said to her, “Two nations are in your womb,    and two peoples from within you will be separated;one people will be stronger than the other,    and the older will serve the younger.” 24 When the time came for her to give birth, there were twin boys in her womb. 25 The first to come out was red, and his whole body was like a hairy garment; so they named him Esau.[a] 26 After this, his brother came out, with his hand grasping Esau's heel; so he was named Jacob.[b] Isaac was sixty years old when Rebekah gave birth to them. 27 The boys grew up, and Esau became a skillful hunter, a man of the open country, while Jacob was content to stay at home among the tents. 28 Isaac, who had a taste for wild game, loved Esau, but Rebekah loved Jacob. 29 Once when Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the open country, famished. 30 He said to Jacob, “Quick, let me have some of that red stew! I'm famished!” (That is why he was also called Edom.[c]) 31 Jacob replied, “First sell me your birthright.” 32 “Look, I am about to die,” Esau said. “What good is the birthright to me?” 33 But Jacob said, “Swear to me first.” So he swore an oath to him, selling his birthright to Jacob. 34 Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and some lentil stew. He ate and drank, and then got up and left. So Esau despised his birthright.   Matthew 13:1-9 The Parable of the Sower 13 That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake. 2 Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people stood on the shore. 3 Then he told them many things in parables, saying: “A farmer went out to sow his seed. 4 As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. 5 Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. 6 But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. 7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. 8 Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown. 9 Whoever has ears, let them hear.” Transcript (Transcribed by TurboScribe) Well, thank you, Alexander, and thank you for all those who make me feel welcome on a Sunday morning in your own special way. I mentioned this last week. There’s a lot of good natured teasing that goes on, and that’s simply because, as Alexander shared, I’ve known the congregation a long time. I guess it was 2009, I came to what was then St. Andrew’s Church, just up the hill, and a few years later, St. Andrew’s and St. Giles amalgamated and became Westside Presbyterian Church, and stayed for several, well, more than some years after that, and retired, I think it would be about four years ago, but still active in ministry. I enjoy attending churches, church services on those Sundays. I’m not preaching elsewhere, but one of the things I look forward to is being here for a few weeks in the summer. So, again, thank you to Aubrey and the session for the invitation. Two readings this morning, from the book of Genesis and then from Matthew. Let us hear God’s word. Isaac prayed to the Lord on behalf of his wife because she was childless. The Lord answered his prayer, and his wife Rebecca became pregnant. The babies jostled each other within her, and she said, why is this happening to me? So she went to enquire of the Lord. The Lord said to her, two nations are in your womb, and two peoples within you will be separated. One people will be stronger than the other, and the older will serve the younger. When the time came for her to give birth, there were twin boys in her womb. The boys grew up, and Esau became a skilful hunter, a man of the open country, while Jacob was content to stay at home among the tents. Isaac, who had a taste for wild game, loved Esau, but Rebecca loved Jacob. Once when Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the open country, famished. He said to Jacob, quick, let me have some of that red stew. I am famished. That is why he is also called Edom. Jacob replied, first sell me your birthright. Look, I’m about to die, Esau said. What good is a birthright to me? But Jacob answered, swear to me first. So he swore an oath to him, selling his birthright to Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and some lentil stew. He ate and drank, and then got up and left. From Matthew’s Gospel, chapter 13, that same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake. Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat in it while all the people stood on the shore. Then he told them many things in parables, saying a farmer went out to sow his seed, and as he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path and the birds ate it up. Some fell on rocky places where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, but because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. Other seed fell among the thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. And still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop a hundred, sixty, or thirty times what was sown. Whoever has ears, let them hear. Amen. In the name of the Creator, the Redeemer, and the Sustainer. Amen. We are told earlier in Genesis that for twenty years Isaac and Rebekah had prayed for a child. Finally their prayers are answered, and the miracle of conception came. But it wasn’t smooth sailing. Even in the womb, the twins were struggling with one another. It’s a foreshadowing of what would continue on throughout their whole lives. It leads Rebekah to ask, while the twins are still in the room, it leads Rebekah to ask, why is this happening to me? And God answers, two nations are in your womb. One people shall be stronger than the other, and the elder shall serve the younger. We’re not told within the text how Rebekah would have received this news. It helps us understand what is about to unfold in foreshadows what’s taking place. But it wouldn’t have been immediate help at that time, and especially that latter phrase, the elder shall serve the younger. As I say, it’s not said in the text, but Rebekah must have said to herself, oh this does not bode well, because that’s not the culture. That’s not the custom. Firstborn, the elder, that’s the head, and the younger siblings serve the elder, but that’s not what Rebekah is told. Esau is born first. Jacob falls close behind, grasping at his brother’s heel. Even that small detail foreshadows the life that Jacob will lead, always grabbing and holding on. In fewer than 15 verses, the twins grow from newborns to young men, yet very little has changed in their lives or in their personalities. They were different in the womb, and they are different outside. Esau is impulsive. He’s driven by the moment, never thinking things all the way through. Jacob is patient, calculating, and as we see, he’s very opportunistic. With that understanding of who these twins were and their personalities, we come to the latter part of the story that I read to you. Esau comes in from the field, exhausted and starving. Let me have some of that red stew, I am famished. Jacob replies, sure. First, sell me your birthright. Sell. You’re firstborn. I’m to serve you. Sell it. Not even give it. Sell it to me. Esau, again, in the moment, not thinking it through. I’m about to die. What good is a birthright to me? And just like that, Esau gives away the birthright over a bowl of lentil stew. Now, I know something about the persuasive power of a good bowl of food. I know I’ve mentioned, I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before. After all, I’ve been coming here for some years. I’m sure I’ve mentioned the trophy I received for cooking chilli. Just happen to have it here. I have it at home, but if there’s a display case, I’m happy to leave it later. Yes, the People’s Choice Award from 2003. Okay, a few years ago. The Rotary Club of Brantford Sunrise, the ninth annual chilli cook-off, June 21st, 2003. The People’s Choice. Not just awarded by, the people spoke and gave me and my team this, I know the power of a good bowl of food. Now, some of you are saying, wait a minute, 2003, anything more recent? Funny you should ask. I thought I heard somebody ask. 2020, just before the world changed, we had in February of 2020, we had our annual Super Bowl contest up at Westside. Super, S-O-U-P-E-R. And yes, if you are asking, I placed in the top 10 of that competition. There were nine of us in entry, but that still places me in the top 10. A good bowl of chilli, soup, stew, that can certainly be tempting. But it’s probably not worth however good it is. It’s not worth your inheritance, your birthright. Neither brother comes out of this encounter looking particularly good. Esau acts impulsively with little thought for the future. Jacob sees his brother’s weakness. He sees it and he exploits it. Neither brother comes out looking good. And let us not completely overlook the parents. It says within the text, the father favoured one child and the mother favoured the other. It’s not just the brothers are not looking good. The family is not looking particularly good. Later in the book of Genesis, Jacob will deceive his own ageing father as well. So where does this ancient family story, and I know many of you would be familiar with this story, where does that ancient story about a long ago family meet us today in our circumstances? With our families. Well, when we think about our families, most of us still feel the pressure to convince the world that everything’s fine. Most often that’s certainly the image we would like to project in a natural way, that everything is okay. Family is normal. Everything’s under control. But when we’re honest, and we can be honest with each other at times and with good friends, when we’re speaking a little more honestly and it feels safe to do so, we know better. We know families can be complicated. We know relationships can be strained. Old wounds can linger. Misunderstandings happen, and sometimes as they’re explained, the situation does not get better. I’ve offered enough explanations over a misunderstanding that I have successfully made the situation worse with my explanations. Sometimes the people we love the most are the ones who can hurt us the most. And yet, let’s get to this, and yet God is still present. God is still there in the midst of that, in the midst of the strain, and the misunderstanding, and the friction, and the tension. That’s one of the great gifts of the stories in the book of Genesis. The very first book, the book that not only emphasises our ongoing, our original and ongoing relationship with God, but also talks about the families that are within that relationship with God. The Bible never pretends that God’s people are flawless. The Bible never pretends that families are not without their challenges. Quite the opposite. Again and again, God chooses to work through people. Again and again, God chooses to work through families that are imperfect. At the heart of Genesis is the inspiring truth that God accomplishes God’s purpose through some of the strangest, most awkward, most hard-to-understand families imaginable. When God looked across the world for people through whom to bless the nations, that’s where that phrase comes from Genesis, when God looked for people through whom to bless the nations, God did not choose people who seemed to have it all together, who had no flaws, that had never known challenges. Sometimes it looks like God would choose the B team, that God would choose not the best and the brightest, but God would still choose them. Families that argue, families that failed, people who doubted, people who made terrible decisions. God would still use them, people just like us. Many of the stories in Genesis make the very first book, as I said, of God’s story with God’s people. Many of the stories make this wonderfully clear. We do not have to be perfect before God can use us. We do not have to have everything figured out before God can bless us. We do not have to belong to a flawless family before God can call us to be a blessing to others. The good news is that God does not wait for perfect people. The good news is that God is faithful even when we are not. If God could work through Isaac and Rebecca, if God could work through Esau and Jacob, if God could bring blessings to people, to nations, to the world through that family, then surely God can work through us and ours. You’ve heard me say in the past, and I mean it with the utmost sincerity, Central Church has a lot going for it. And I hope this doesn’t shock you. But it’s not because you’re perfect. I’ve never heard anyone claim that about Central Church. What I have heard, it’s a group of people who care about each other, who care about the neighbourhood they’re in, who care about the community that you’re part of. Not perfect, but perfectly caring people. This is a church that God has, that God can, and God will continue to work through. Because by the grace of God, we are exactly the kind of people that God has always used and loved to use. People, people just like us. Amen, and so be it.

We delve into a critical moment in Israel's history as described in Joshua 22. After seven years of conquest, Israel finally experiences rest, but a new conflict arises when the eastern tribes build an altar near the Jordan River. Misunderstandings escalate to the brink of civil war as the western tribes prepare for battle, believing the altar breaches God's commands. A delegation led by Phinehas confronts the eastern tribes, only to learn that the altar is meant as a witness to future generations, not for sacrifices. Through dialogue and reason, the conflict is resolved, and unity is restored.Support the showRead along with us in the Bible Brief App!

Misunderstandings about the Authority to Operate (ATO) process are slowing federal technology modernization efforts and driving up costs, according to David Raley, chief digital business officer for Operation StormBreaker in the Marine Corps. Speaking at GovCIO Media & Research's Federal IT Efficiency Summit, Raley argued that many delays stem from a fundamental misconception about what receives an authorization. Rather than granting ATOs to individual software applications, agencies authorize integrated systems operating within specific environments, taking into account mission context, infrastructure, users and data. Raley said this misunderstanding often leads to unnecessary delays for both government teams and industry partners. To accelerate software delivery, Raley highlighted the Marine Corps' Operation StormBreaker initiative, which leverages modern DevSecOps practices and continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines. By building applications on preauthorized platforms, teams can inherit the majority of required security controls, reducing compliance burdens and enabling faster, more efficient delivery of mission capabilities.

Next, Mandy Keyes investigates food misconceptions at a farmer's market in Pashook, Iowa, where a simple question about tomatoes leads to nightshade conspiracies, unusual educational materials, and some deeply confusing ideas about reproduction. Finally, in her first-ever field report, Gail "Shut Up Gail" Shephard accidentally investigates immaculate conception instead of misconception, uncovering mysterious pregnancies, impossible football outcomes, secret societies, and gardening techniques that defy explanation.

In this episode I am once again joined by Lorin Roche PhD, meditation teacher and author of “The Radiance Sutras”. I first met Lorin at the Summit at Sea conference in 2015 where we were both teaching. We attended each others' workshops and immediately hit it off. In those days, we both taught on the California conference circuit and were often booked to teach at the same gatherings. Over the years we spent many weeks enjoying extended conversations, raucous dinners, and long evenings of music and poetry. In short, we became true friends. It was a desire to share the rich conversations I was having with friends like Lorin that contributed to my decision to start the Guru Viking Podcast. And so, naturally, I asked Lorin to be my first interview subject. He went on to become one of my most popular, recurring guests. On the 18th of April 2026, Lorin died. What follows is our last interview and conversation, recorded a few months before his passing. The episode covers many of Lorin's most characteristic teaching themes and I have also included some of the conversation we had before and after the main episode content. There are many poignant and amusing stories from the years of my friendship with Lorin and there is a lot worth saying about his approach to meditation. One day, I might record an episode dedicated to those themes. For now I will say that it is obvious to all that Lorin was a vivacious man - the essence of his approach to teaching meditation was an encouragement to wholeheartedly embrace life. But I can also report that behind the scenes and off the stage Lorin was a generous man, irreverent, funny, and very kind. … https://www.guruviking.com/podcast/ep365-the-last-interview-lorin-roche-phd Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'. … Topics include: 00:00 - Intro 01:5 - Boats, geese, and hummingbirds 07:05 - Meditating with the flow of nature 08:14 - Being human is like being president of Earth 11:35 - The miracle of attention 13:51 - Teaching was easier in the 70s 15:15 - Agencylessness is a dumb idea 16:38 - Human reaction time 17:52 - Attending to the inner life 18:44 - Evil meditation teaching 19:58 - Misunderstandings about Patañjali's Yoga Sūtras 22:55 - Taming the body 26:33 - The genius of yoga 28:01 - Pros and cons of stopping the mind 28:57 - Where meditation went wrong 35:47 - Tuning the instrument 38:56 - Limitations of the “tuning” metaphor 43:24 - Monastic ideas sabotage lay people 45:41 - Religion vs meditation 50:56 - Is Loren's approach self-indulgent? 56:18 - Peak experiences and enlightenment 59:20 - Loren's drug experiences 01:02:20 - LA Yoga community's enthusiasm for drugs 01:04:50 - Loren asks about Steve's meditation … Previous episodes with Lorin here: - https://www.guruviking.com/search?q=lorin

In this episode, we open Romans 8 and tackle one of the most misunderstood ideas in Christianity: “God works all things together for good.” We'll talk honestly about suffering, why slapping “God is in control” on someone's pain can do real damage, and why nothing—no accident, no failure, no dark season—can separate you from the love of God in Christ.

You didn't burn your business down. You got bored — and nobody told you why. The Impulsive Thinker® finally digs into his own ADHD story. If you never fit in, this episode is for you.   In This Episode: Why masking and not fitting in hits hardest for ADHD Entrepreneurs How boredom and conformity kill the drive to build and create What happens when you mistake ADHD for being a "bad person"   What You'll Take Away: Not fitting in is the baseline for ADHD Entrepreneurs — not a problem to fix Masking starts young and scars deep, but doesn't erase who you are Boredom triggers chaos — your brain blows things up to feel something ADHD isn't the problem. It's the world's refusal to bend that breaks you. Diagnosing ADHD late means years of thinking you're the issue   GUEST BIOCassandra Morari is an ADHD brain and COO at The Rock, a Saskatchewan family ag-business. She knows small town. She knows family business. And she's been masking her brain for years. www.therackonline.com   ABOUT THIS EPISODE This episode of The Impulsive Thinker® tears the mask off the host's own ADHD Entrepreneur experience. No fluff. Cassandra Morari asks the questions nobody's put to The Impulsive Thinker® before — what did pre-diagnosis really look like? From growing up the oddball in a rural Catholic town to blowing up career moves out of boredom, The Impulsive Thinker® walks through decades of fitting everywhere but belonging nowhere. They hit on real ADHD challenges — masking, rejection, internalized blame, and how boredom and novelty drive business decisions. The Impulsive Thinker® explains that ADHD isn't the enemy. The problem is being forced to run on "society's measuring stick" instead of your own operating system. The worst damage isn't business chaos — it's the belief that your brain is broken. This episode is built for ADHD Entrepreneurs who know being different isn't a marketing slogan. If you're sick of pretending to fit in, hit play now.   Email me about it at andre@theimpulsivethinker.com. Remember — ADHD failure is measured on society's measuring stick. Not yours. Your brain runs on interest, not importance. That's not a flaw. That's a different operating system. ADHD is not a deficit. It's a difference.  

Kingdom Realities of the Holy Spirit | KWR0060 Kingdom War Room Description In this powerful episode of the Kingdom War Room, Dr. Michael Lake, Dr. Mike Spaulding, and Dr. Corby Shuey confront many of the theological errors and spiritual deceptions that have infiltrated the modern charismatic movement. Together, they examine the true biblical role of the Holy Spirit, the difference between the New Birth and Spirit empowerment, the misuse of spiritual gifts, and the growing danger of counterfeit signs and wonders in the last days. The discussion moves deeply into Scripture, exposing how emotionalism, entertainment-driven Christianity, and modern mystical movements have replaced authentic discipleship and intimacy with God. The team also explores the biblical purpose of the gifts of the Spirit, the importance of the fruit of the Spirit, discernment regarding modern revival movements, and how believers can prepare spiritually for the rise of deception connected to the Antichrist system. This episode is a sobering but encouraging call for believers to return to covenant faithfulness, authentic prayer, deep study of the Word of God, and genuine intimacy with Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit. Kingdom War Room #60 challenges the remnant to move beyond hype and emotionalism into a Spirit-led life grounded in truth, holiness, discernment, and the Word of God.

Transcript:Sv: Solen sken in genom de stora fönstren i kaffebryggeriet.En: The sun shone in through the large windows of the kaffebryggeriet.Sv: Doften av nymalda kaffebönor svävade i luften.En: The scent of freshly ground coffee beans floated in the air.Sv: Det var vår i Stockholm, och staden vaknade till liv efter den långa vintern.En: It was spring in Stockholm, and the city awakened to life after the long winter.Sv: Felix satt vid ett hörnbord, begravd i sina tankar.En: Felix sat at a corner table, buried in his thoughts.Sv: Det var en chansning att stanna för kaffe just här idag.En: It was a gamble to stop for coffee here today.Sv: Han hade alltid gillat den varma atmosfären med de rustika träborden och de exponerade tegelväggarna.En: He had always liked the warm atmosphere with the rustic wooden tables and exposed brick walls.Sv: Men han hade inte förväntat sig att se Linnea här.En: But he hadn't expected to see Linnea here.Sv: När dörrklockan pinglade och Linnea steg in, stelnade Felix först till.En: When the doorbell chimed and Linnea stepped in, Felix froze at first.Sv: Han hade inte pratat med henne på fem år.En: He hadn't spoken to her in five years.Sv: Det var som om all denna tid inte hade gått.En: It was as if all that time hadn't passed.Sv: Minnena från deras starka vänskap kom tillbaka, men även smärtan från missförståndet som hade skilt dem åt.En: The memories of their strong friendship returned, but so did the pain from the misunderstanding that had separated them.Sv: Linnea, alltid den utåtriktade, höjde sitt ögonbryn i förvåning när hon fick syn på Felix.En: Linnea, always the outgoing one, raised her eyebrow in surprise when she spotted Felix.Sv: Hon var här för att hitta lite tid för sig själv, inte för att konfrontera saker från det förflutna.En: She was here to find some time for herself, not to confront things from the past.Sv: Men att bara låtsas som ingenting skulle inte lösa något, tänkte hon.En: But pretending nothing had happened wouldn't solve anything, she thought.Sv: Hon tog ett djupt andetag och gick fram till hans bord.En: She took a deep breath and approached his table.Sv: "Hej, Felix", sa hon och försökte låta avslappnad.En: "Hi, Felix," she said, trying to sound relaxed.Sv: "Hej, Linnea", svarade han och försökte dölja sitt nervösa leende.En: "Hi, Linnea," he replied, trying to hide his nervous smile.Sv: "Kan jag bjuda dig på en kopp kaffe?"En: "Can I offer you a cup of coffee?"Sv: De satte sig ner tillsammans, och efter några artiga fraser förblev luften tjock av det osagda emellan dem.En: They sat together, and after a few polite phrases, the air remained thick with the unspoken between them.Sv: Felix kände behovet av att tala upp.En: Felix felt the need to speak up.Sv: Han hade funderat över dessa obesvarade frågor alldeles för länge.En: He had pondered these unanswered questions for far too long.Sv: "Jag har tänkt mycket på vad som hände", började Felix försiktigt.En: "I've been thinking a lot about what happened," Felix began cautiously.Sv: "Jag förstår fortfarande inte helt varför vi förlorade kontakten.En: "I still don't completely understand why we lost touch.Sv: Jag saknade dig."En: I missed you."Sv: Linnea tittade ner på sitt kaffe, rörde om i koppen medan hon funderade på sitt svar.En: Linnea looked down at her coffee, stirring the cup as she considered her response.Sv: "Det var ett missförstånd”, sa hon till slut.En: "It was a misunderstanding," she finally said.Sv: "Jag kände att du drog dig undan.En: "I felt like you were withdrawing.Sv: Men jag förstod aldrig varför."En: But I never understood why."Sv: Felix suckade djupt.En: Felix sighed deeply.Sv: Han insåg att hans egen osäkerhet och rädsla för att bli missförstådd hade fått honom att backa.En: He realized that his own insecurity and fear of being misunderstood had caused him to back away.Sv: "Jag ville aldrig att det skulle bli så.En: "I never wanted it to be this way.Sv: Jag trodde du var arg på mig och kände mig sårad, så jag undvek dig istället för att fråga."En: I thought you were mad at me and felt hurt, so I avoided you instead of asking."Sv: Linnea log svagt.En: Linnea smiled faintly.Sv: "Vi båda missförstod varandra.En: "We both misunderstood each other.Sv: Jag skulle ha pratat med dig tidigare."En: I should have talked to you earlier."Sv: De satt tysta en stund, men tystnaden kändes annorlunda nu.En: They sat in silence for a moment, but the silence felt different now.Sv: Det var inte längre en mur mellan dem, bara en uppriktig vila efter den uppriktiga konversationen.En: It was no longer a wall between them, just an honest rest after the frank conversation.Sv: "Vill du kanske träffas igen?"En: "Would you maybe like to meet again?"Sv: frågade Felix, med hopp i rösten.En: Felix asked, with hope in his voice.Sv: "Ja", svarade Linnea med ett varmt leende.En: "Yes," Linnea replied with a warm smile.Sv: "Det skulle jag gärna göra."En: "I would love to."Sv: När de lämnade kaffebryggeriet, hade luften klarnat.En: As they left the kaffebryggeriet, the air had cleared.Sv: Felix kände ett nytt lugn, och Linnea hade släppt den börda hon burit på.En: Felix felt a new calm, and Linnea had released the burden she had been carrying.Sv: De tog ett steg mot att återuppbygga sin vänskap, nu med en bättre förståelse för varandra.En: They took a step towards rebuilding their friendship, now with a better understanding of each other.

I met Juliet years ago in the sober community. She's always been a mix of sweet, feisty, and unapologetically blunt. We shared a lot of the same circles: mutual friends, events, weddings, fellowship halls, even the gym. Life kept unfolding, and over the years we'd cross paths here and there.Like many relationships, ours had its ups and downs. Misunderstandings eventually led to a break in communication. Still, whenever we ran into each other, it was always cordial. At the end of the day, there was never ill will, just the quiet understanding of how hard it is to watch someone struggle, especially with something as unforgiving as addiction. From the outside, Juliet's life looked full: beautiful family, meaningful relationships, travel, fitness. But underneath, she describes it as pure hell. There was a constant effort to hold everything together on the surface while battling untreated alcoholism and addiction behind the scenes.After years of talking about doing a podcast, we finally sat down and had the conversation. Over the past several months, Juliet has fully committed herself to change building a relationship with God, working on how she responds to life, helping other women, and sharing her journey publicly. What started on TikTok quickly grew onto Instagram, where her platform has taken off. She opens up about everything: addiction, recovery, marriage, motherhood, family, and the reality of putting your life out there inviting both support and criticism. She's also been intentional about navigating what to share, making sure to protect her children and respect her family while still being honest.This conversation gave us the chance to clear the air, revisit old misunderstandings, and acknowledge that sometimes outside voices can complicate things. We talked about boundaries, growth, and perspective but most importantly, about how sobriety and active recovery have transformed our lives and the lives of those around us. I'm grateful we finally had this conversation.Please enjoy the episode. If you'd like to connect or have questions, you can reach Juliet on Instagram @thejulietsocial.

Software communication gaps are the invisible force behind most failed or delayed software projects—and they often start long before a single line of code is written. In the conversation with Thanos Diacakis, one thing becomes immediately clear: teams don't struggle because they lack talent or tools. They struggle because they lack a shared language. About Thanos Diacakis With over 25 years in software development, Thanos Diacakis has worked with early-stage ventures and tech giants like Uber and Included Health. He led the technical integration of the JUMP Bikes acquisition, scaling the platform to 45k vehicles and over 2 million monthly trips. Today, he helps teams deliver faster with better quality—without burning out in the process. Connect with Thanos on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thanosd/ The Real Cost of Software Communication Gaps At the heart of most broken projects is a simple pattern: business teams describe what they want, developers interpret it, and both sides assume alignment. That assumption is where everything breaks. Thanos describes a familiar scenario: a business writes a multi-page specification, hands it to engineers, and waits weeks for results. When the work returns, it's "not what we meant."   This isn't incompetence—it's translation failure. Natural language is inherently ambiguous. Code is not. Bridging that gap requires more than documentation. It requires a system for continuously refining understanding. Why Software Communication Gaps Get Worse Over Time Many teams respond to misalignment by adding more: detail documents requirements control That reaction feels logical—but it makes things worse. Instead of improving clarity, it increases rigidity. Teams become slower, less adaptive, and more frustrated. ⚠️ Warning: More documentation does not fix misunderstanding—it often amplifies it. The real issue isn't a lack of detail. It's a lack of feedback cycles. Without frequent validation, teams drift further apart with every iteration. Closing Software Communication Gaps with Iteration The solution Thanos emphasizes is deceptively simple: shorten the loop. Instead of building for a month, build for two days. Instead of guessing, validate continuously. This shifts development from a "delivery model" to a "discovery model."

Episode 95In this podcast, we welcome Dr. J.R. Andrews - Dr. Andrews is the author of *InnerShift: Spiritual Care in the Age of Distraction* and *Just Sayin': A Faithful Brother's Guide to Dating with Purpose, Pace & Peace*. Rather than offering simple advice, he tackles real-life challenges—such as aimless relationships, unstructured faith, and misaligned success—and brings fresh perspective with insight and honesty. We discussed the pitfalls of misguided relationship advice and how it can create confusion by steering people in the wrong direction. We'll also explore some common misunderstandings between men and women and consider the consequences that often result from these miscommunicationsFor more information:Instagram: @justsayinTikTok: @justsayinYouTube: @justsayindrjBuy the book: https://innershift360.com/just-sayin Take the Dating ID Quiz: https://innershift360.com/datin-id-quizSend us Fan MailMen Speaking Out...Talking to reveal, not conceal! menspeakingout.com

We went LIVE for the first time… and yeah, it got exactly as chaotic as you'd expect. No safety net, no edits—just straight Machismo energy hitting the internet in real time. Anything could happen… and it pretty much did. The guys kicked things off arguing about tipping etiquette—how much is enough, when you shouldn't tip, and which situations make you question your entire moral compass. (Spoiler: nobody agrees, and someone probably got judged hard.) Then things took a turn when Marty and Albert dropped a wild story about being out in public with their straight/gay friend combo that left an unsuspecting woman completely confused. Misunderstandings, awkward energy, and Machismo-level commentary followed. To bring the audience into the madness, the crew answered questions to let people really get to know them—unfiltered, unpredictable, and exactly the kind of answers you'd expect from this group. First live stream in the books… and if this is how we start, it's only getting crazier from here.

Conflict is inevitable. Misunderstandings happen. People say things they don't mean—or don't say what we needed to hear. The question isn't if conflict will come, but how we choose to handle it when it does.Jesus invites us to approach conflict differently—not with defensiveness or assumptions, but with humility, honesty, and a desire to restore.This week, we walk through a better way forward:1. Check your motive.2. Check your story.3. Share your motive.4. Share your story.5. Listen to their story.6. Own your part (even if it's just 1%).7. Ask for what you need.8. Take action and follow-up.Because it's not about being right—it's about getting it right together.

Therapy Twins Joan and Jane were raised in Connecticut. Both of the sisters are former nurses and their background and life experiences are varied and complex. Just to set up the relationships-Jane is two minutes older than he twin Joan. For most of their lives, they've always  been referred to as  as 'Jane and Joan', so now they like to refer to themselves as Joan and Jane.  Lori, their older sister by three years, is considered the twins 'second mama.'   My guests explain why they believe their mother was not overwhelmingly affectionate and loving.  They believe it began when  their  maternal grandmother abandoned all of  her five children, including the twin's mom, Evelyn. However, Evelyn's father insisted on keeping all of his children and raising them himself.  At that point in  time the twins mom's life changed  drastically.   Evelyn and her twin sister, Rita,  had to go work and take care of injured soldiers and the local elderly and live at a nearby facility. It was not a pleasant environment to say the least. Joan and Jane's  parents met while roller skating and it was love at first sight. Evelyn worked at the local elementary school in the cafeteria for years. She wasn't necessarily a good cook but every night there was a full meal on the table.  From an early age the family was very close. Dinner, conversations, fresh cut fruit every night. "Our mom was a doll" always dressed up and presentable. Joan explains "I think she sacrificed a lot of herself so we could have more. I couldn't even imagine somebody better than she was." Jane on the other hand has a different perspective. " As the 'other' twin, I was born with a glass half empty and I was a depressed child.  I understand now that a mother glows when a child glows. I grew up with a big chip on my shoulder that my mother preferred Joan. Recently I came to the conclusion that when I got my depression treated, and I was bright and airy, I got the look, the smile from my mother and I'm so grateful.  The fact that she didn't leave us was good enough and that's all you need is a good enough mother." Because of miscommunication they lost many years of a loving relationship. Fortunately Jane and her mom both admitted the miscommunication before Evelyn passed in saying to each another "Oh I'm sorry I thought you didn't like me" and vice a versa. Jane insists that "when you change your perception in life and view things a little bit differently, you'd be amazed at the lovely memories you could have."  All Jane can remember now is the good. My guest's mom said "being an identical twin forces you to be comfortable being seen through a  microscope.  Joan and Jane are therapists for anyone and everyone, not just twins.  Between the  two women, they've had some terrifying life experiences including PTSD, a  mugging, sexual assault, near airplane crash and more. They believe  that they experienced early childhood trauma beginning in the 1960's, when they spent 30 days in separate incubators  before they allowed mom and dad to touch the girls.  It wasn't till they got home after one month that they experienced physical and emotional touch. The twins feel that this trauma helps them with working with their clients suffering from similar experiences. You can hear endless stories of the twins sharing symbiotic experiences,  emotionally and physically. And yes, they both have criminal records so don't be surprised if their arrest records  show up when you google them.

As the daughter of the renowned intellectual Edward Said, Najla Said discusses the unique pressures of navigating her family's legacy while forging her own creative voice in the shadow of his immense influence. The conversation explores her journey from attempting to assimilate into American culture as a youth to confronting her heritage during a pivotal trip to Palestine and Lebanon. Said details her entry into professional theater and the development of her acclaimed one-woman show, Palestine, which grew from an intimate journal entry. She also offers a personal perspective on her father's moral backbone, the impact of recent global events on her sense of safety in New York, and the evolution of her activism through new collaborative theater projects. The discussion touches on the enduring intimacy of her memoir, Looking for Palestine, and how sharing her inner monologue has helped her find a community based on genuine solidarity.    0:00 Introduction 1:37 Childhood Stories and Typewritten Plays  2:54 Growing Up in the Shadow of Intellectual Giants  7:23 The Weight of Family Legacy  10:00 Journaling and the Discovery of a Personal Voice  12:47 Acting, Identity, and Hollywood Reality Checks  20:36 Defining "Arab" through Theater  22:10 Navigating Identity Shifts: Lebanon, Palestine, and New York  33:32 Misunderstandings and the Moral Backbone of Edward Said  36:58 Current Work: Dialogue in a Time of Hostility  44:30 Erasing Legacy: Columbia University and Global Activism  47:40 Politics and Perception  52:14 Looking for Palestine: The Vulnerability of Memoir  56:56 Shedding the Need to Be Liked  58:07 Solidarity as the Greatest Expression of Love  Najla Said is a Palestinian-Lebanese-American actress, playwright, author, and activist, recognized for her memoir Looking for Palestine: Growing Up Confused in an Arab-American Family (2013), which chronicles her struggles with cultural identity amid a privileged New York City upbringing as the daughter of prominent Palestinian intellectual Edward W. Said and his Lebanese-born wife Mariam Cortas Said. Said initially distanced herself from her Arab heritage, assimilating into American and Jewish social circles while attending elite institutions like Dalton School and Princeton University, before a transformative trip to the Middle East prompted her to embrace Palestinian roots more fully. Said's career spans theater and performance, including her solo show Palestine, which she has presented at over 25 high schools, colleges, and universities worldwide since its off-Broadway debut, addressing themes of diaspora, stereotyping, and Arab-American experiences. She has worked with New York institutions such as New York Theatre Workshop, The Public Theater, and Second Stage, and maintains affiliations like a "Usual Suspect" at NYTW. As an activist, Said advocates for Palestinian self-determination, drawing on her father's legacy of critiquing Western orientalism, though her public engagements, including support for campus protests, reflect a personal evolution from identity confusion to vocal solidarity with causes tied to her heritage.  Connect with Najla Said

“Misunderstood Messiah” John 12:12-33 March 29, 2026 Pastor Tony Felich  Sermon Application [file]   ----more---- John 12:12 The next day the large crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. [13] So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!” [14] And Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written,[15] “Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your king is coming, sitting on a donkey's colt!”[16] His disciples did not understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written about him and had been done to him. [17] The crowd that had been with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to bear witness. [18] The reason why the crowd went to meet him was that they heard he had done this sign. [19] So the Pharisees said to one another, “You see that you are gaining nothing. Look, the world has gone after him.”[20] Now among those who went up to worship at the feast were some Greeks. [21] So these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and asked him, “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.” [22] Philip went and told Andrew; Andrew and Philip went and told Jesus. [23] And Jesus answered them, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. [24] Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. [25] Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. [26] If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him. [27] “Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour'? But for this purpose I have come to this hour. [28] Father, glorify your name.” Then a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.” [29] The crowd that stood there and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.” [30] Jesus answered, “This voice has come for your sake, not mine. [31] Now is the judgment of this world; now will the ruler of this world be cast out. [32] And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.” [33] He said this to show by what kind of death he was going to die.   Misunderstandings about Jesus warns us about making Him in our image instead of following Him in self-denial.             I. Misunderstood Kingship       II. Misunderstood Mission      III. Misunderstood Identity      IV. Misunderstood Cross

T3-based thyroid medications, including desiccated thyroid extract and combination T4/T3 therapy, are some of the most misunderstood and controversial tools in thyroid care. Some patients feel dramatically better. Others feel briefly improved, then crash. Labs often look "optimized," yet long-term recovery stalls. So what's actually happening? In this episode of Thyroid Answers, Dr. Eric Balcavage breaks down the most common mistakes, misunderstandings, and miscommunication surrounding T3-based thyroid therapy — and explains why outcomes vary so widely between patients. You'll learn: Why so many people end up on T3 or desiccated thyroid in the first place The real physiologic arguments clinicians use to justify T3 therapy What a healthy human thyroid gland actually produces — and why that matters Where most of the body's T3 really comes from Why "poor conversion" is often an adaptive response, not a defect Why lowering reverse T3 doesn't necessarily mean recovery Why T3 helps some people and destabilizes others The difference between managing symptoms and restoring physiology This episode reframes T3 therapy through the lens of physiologic state, not just lab values — and explains why adding more thyroid hormone can sometimes push the body further away from recovery. If you've ever wondered whether T3 is helping you, hurting you, or simply masking deeper issues, this conversation will give you a clearer framework for understanding what's really going on.

In a time where man-made systems control nations, Bishop T.D. Jakes reminds us of how power can be dangerous and disruptive to a believer. In John 20:25-28, we see what some call “Doubting Thomas” interact with the resurrected Jesus. But was he doubting or was he disappointed? Thomas was known as a courageous follower who witnessed the death of Jesus, but rumors of His missing body shook Thomas' faith. Grief. Misunderstandings. Loss of trust. These were all his pains of believing. In eight days, Thomas went from “I will not believe” to “My Lord and my God.” Like Thomas, Jesus can use your pains to resurrect your faith and renew your mind by simply taking away what's not needed. God has not forgotten you. He knows exactly where you are and what condition you are in. So, whether you're doubting or courageous, don't let your faith die in oppression. Your belief in Christ will pay off. Message: “The Pain of Believing” Scripture: John 20:25-28 (KJV) Speaker: Bishop T.D. Jakes Date: Feb. 22, 2026 ✨ Welcome to Your Moment of Transformation You don't have to walk this journey alone. Let Jesus guide your steps and fill your life with purpose and peace.

We explore how our nervous systems, personal histories, and internal stories shape the meaning we make of our partner's behavior. By slowing down and getting curious, couples can interrupt the cycle and create more connection instead of escalating disconnection. Main Talking Points • Pursuer vs. withdrawer • Meaning-making stories • Nervous system responses • Projection in conflict • Windows of tolerance • Curiosity over certainty Check Out Relationship Academy Give Me Discounts!

JAWS can only mean one thing! The movie that forever changed how we feel about sharks. It did me, that’s for sure. To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the movie, we thought it might be time to help separate fact from fiction in a fun way……by playing audio clips from the movie and having a real shark expert react to them and tell us the truth about how dangerous they are, how sharks really think, why there’s been a surge in sightings in recent years, and so much more. Spoiler alert: you may or may not sleep better after this episode. Join me as I “dive deep” on sharks with Amani Webber-Schultz.
