The sermon focuses on the transformative necessity of a dedicated, private prayer life. Drawing from a recent youth camp experience characterized by a "spiritual renaissance," the message challenges the congregation to move past cultural distractions and performance-based faith to seek a genuine, unhurried connection with God.Key Camp TeachingsErik begins by summarizing the core messages delivered during the recent youth camp, which laid the foundation for the students' spiritual breakthroughs:The Chalk Circle (Rodney Smith): A challenge to draw a metaphorical circle around oneself and pray fervently for revival to start exclusively within that circle.Discernment (Ralph Garcia): The importance of distinguishing between four distinct voices: God, the enemy, the world, and self. This is achieved through Scripture, the Holy Spirit, and wise counsel.The Power of Imagination (Travis): A call to stop surrendering the mind's eye to the enemy and instead use imagination to visualize God and cleanse the mind.Making Disciples (Robbie): A reminder that believers cannot lead others where they have not spiritually gone themselves.Student TestimoniesTo demonstrate the practical impact of these teachings, six students shared their personal breakthroughs from the camp:Ally: Overcame a strong reluctance to attend camp and experienced a profound sense of God's presence and peace during prayer.Carson: Broke free from a draining, performance-based faith and removed digital distractions (like phones) to find pure spiritual freedom.Evie: Conquered a lifelong fear of embarrassment and the judgment of others in order to fully surrender and worship openly.James: Navigated the fallout of a public mistake, a battle with pneumonia, and profound grief, ultimately finding the overwhelming presence of Jesus.Addie: Battled internal divides, anxiety, and shame by using Scripture (Philippians 4, Psalm 139) to renew her mind and silence lies.Liam: Transitioned from an inconsistent, wavering relationship with God to stepping up in leadership and finding clear spiritual direction.The Core Message: Fueling Ministry Through PrayerFollowing the testimonies, Erik grounds the message in Luke 10:38-42, using the story of Martha and Mary to illustrate the ultimate goal of prayer.The Danger of Distraction: Martha was frantic, working hard to prepare a meal for Jesus, but her busyness left her frustrated, burned out, and resentful. Erik warns against doing things for Jesus while neglecting to spend time with Jesus.The "Good Portion": Mary chose the better path by simply sitting at the feet of Jesus and listening. True spiritual peace and effectiveness come from proximity to God, not from frantic service.Motivations in Prayer: A healthy prayer life must seek the advancement of God's kingdom rather than personal glory. Erik challenges the congregation to examine if their prayers are focused on building up their own names or honoring God."No man is greater than his prayer life." — Leonard Ravenhill (Quoted by Erik Schlick)The sermon concludes with a call to action: to stop living out of anxiety or a desire for human approval, and instead adopt a posture of stillness, knowing that a public life of faith must be directly fueled by a private life of prayer.

The psyche behind the people who enabled Jeffrey Epstein was built on a toxic mix of ambition, cowardice, greed, access, and moral compartmentalization. Epstein surrounded himself with people who either wanted something from him, feared losing something because of him, or convinced themselves that the obvious ugliness around him was not their problem to confront. For some, he was a gateway to money, power, introductions, donations, jobs, private travel, elite circles, and proximity to billionaires, politicians, academics, royalty, and Wall Street operators. For others, he was simply useful, and usefulness became the excuse that swallowed every red flag. They did not need to believe he was innocent; they only needed to believe that staying close to him was more valuable than asking hard questions. That is the psychology of enablement: not always blind loyalty, but deliberate self-protection dressed up as ignorance, discretion, professionalism, or “I only handled logistics.”What made Epstein's world so durable was that every enabler could shrink their own role until it felt survivable. The banker could say he only handled accounts. The lawyer could say he only gave advice. The assistant could say she only scheduled meetings. The socialite could say she only made introductions. The institution could say compliance missed something. The powerful friend could say he barely knew him. And together, all of those little evasions created the infrastructure that allowed the abuse to continue. Epstein exploited that weakness perfectly, because he understood that elite environments often do not require people to be openly evil; they only require people to be useful, quiet, and ambitious enough to look away. The real horror is that his operation did not survive because one monster acted alone. It survived because too many people decided that their comfort, career, status, money, and access mattered more than the girls and young women being harmed right in front of them.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

In this episode, Jesus calls out the religious leaders because they aren't following the law of Moses that they seem to be so passionate about. We are reminded that it is our inward motivations that we should examine as followers of Jesus!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.   I teach my personal narrative clients and students that their rigorous “depth of inquiry” steers them way from writing surface-level, first-available answer drafts to crafting a memorable story. What do I mean? Nice personal essays often recount the superficial events of what happened and to whom. Maturing storytellers grow their essays into unforgettable narratives by deeply exploring why what happened to them matters, probing motivations, and reflecting on how those experiences shaped their world view. For example, a nice personal essay focuses on content. Facts tell the reader what you did, the places you went, or the most obvious outcomes of an event. A memorable story focuses on context—the situation or circumstances the facts took place in. Together content plus context create meaning. Meaning reveals your underlying emotions, struggles, doubts, and the personal truths you uncovered along the way. Story listeners are drawn to meaning like filings to a magnet. Tip: To transform a nice essay into memorable story, dig deep by asking yourself 5 probing "depth of inquiry" questions: 1. What did you desire? 2. What choices did you make to get it? 3. What were the consequences of those choices? 4. Did you achieve what you desired, or fail? 5. How did the experience change you? Story Prompt: Think of a time when you were offered an unlikely opportunity. You said “Yes! Come what may!” What happened next? Write that story and share it out loud! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us!

Ryan Bloom grew up in a good family in Oklahoma with dreams of becoming a dentist. Life took a different turn and he built an electrical contracting business instead. When the business lost a major contract he turned to a small bank for help — and got pulled into a high interest invoice lending situation that ultimately left him owing over $2 million and forced to declare bankruptcy. Ryan thought everything he was doing was completely legitimate. Then the feds came for him. He was indicted for bank fraud — and discovered the prosecutor had a conflict of interest with the bank. He fought back. He spent almost $500,000 in attorney fees. And he beat the federal government. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Ryan breaks down the complete story — from the business collapse to the bankruptcy to the federal indictment to the courtroom victory that cost him everything financially but gave him his freedom. _____________________________________________ #fraud #TrueCrime #arrest _____________________________________________ Connect with Ryan Bloom: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rdbloom _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction and Early Life 01:52 Family Background and Childhood 03:23 College Dreams and Choosing a Career 04:44 Joining and Growing the Family Business 05:46 Family Infighting and Company's Downfall 06:34 New Start in Oil & Gas, Launching Own Business 07:46 Launching Pathfinder HDD and Business Pivot 08:22 Business Growth and Early Successes 09:14 Winning Big Contracts and Facing Setbacks 10:19 Losing Major Contracts and Transitioning to EV 11:16 Cash Flow Issues and Getting Hustled 13:06 Switching to Riskier Clients & Financial Mistakes 14:55 Survival Strategies and Bank Loans 16:46 Entering the Bank's Business Manager Program 19:09 Struggling with Loan Terms and Shrinking Cash Flow 23:32 Business Hits a Wall and Approaching Insolvency 26:00 Personal Consequences & Potential Bankruptcy 28:29 Winding Down Operations and Filing Bankruptcy 31:06 Bankruptcy Process and Asset Liquidation 35:51 Personal Impact and Family Resilience 39:03 Navigating Bankruptcy Exemptions 41:02 Life After Bankruptcy: Rebuilding 44:41 Facing Litigation and Bank's Aggressive Tactics 46:58 Legal Uncertainty and Approaching Discharge 50:02 Arrest by FBI and Shock of Indictment 54:41 Processing the Arrest and Immediate Aftermath 59:30 Public Reaction and Family Support 01:02:44 Beginning the Legal Battle 01:05:12 Prosecution's Case Building and Strange Accusations 01:10:01 Defending Against Fraud Allegations 01:17:01 Legal Strategy and Conflict of Interest 01:21:59 Superseding Indictment and Witness Tampering 01:27:53 Bank's Insurance Claim and Motivations for Prosecution 01:32:00 Preparing for Trial and Hiring Top Defense 01:39:13 Conflict of Interest, Disqualifying the Prosecutor 01:46:07 Case Dismissal and Pre-Trial Diversion 01:50:01 Financial Ruin and Emotional Toll 01:53:02 Life Lessons, Resilience, and Moving On 02:03:40 Advice on Integrity and Closing Thoughts _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

Thanks for watching and listening!Gordon hosted his podcast and shared insights from his recent break, discussing his participation in the July Summer Accelerator program focused on setting and achieving three goals. He outlined a three-part framework for overcoming discouragement in three key areas: mind, body, and money. For mental challenges, Gordon recommended changing thought patterns through reading, writing affirmations, and listening to positive content. For physical fitness struggles, he suggested setting specific, achievable goals and creating daily activity schedules rather than trying to regain everything at once. Regarding money concerns, Gordon advised writing down exact financial goals and identifying actionable steps to address financial challenges. He concluded by inviting listeners to join the Capitalize Your Best online community, offering a free seven-day trial followed by a monthly membership fee of $29.

In this segment, Heidi Harris covers the latest developments regarding the preliminary hearings for Tyler Robinson, the individual responsible for the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk. Harris remarks on the overwhelming amount of evidence stacked against Robinson, noting how emotionally difficult it was for Kirk's wife, Erika, to remain in the courtroom as graphic details of the shooting were introduced. Diving into the details of the case, Harris explains that the investigation uncovered a clear trail of evidence against Robinson, including personal logs and a final note that sheds light on his motivations. She points out that Robinson targeted Kirk due to his vocal advocacy for traditional family values and American exceptionalism—principles that clashed directly with Robinson's own left-leaning beliefs. Wrapping up the segment, Harris emphasizes that regardless of any fringe online conspiracies claiming the incident was staged, the reality of the crime is undeniable, and the legal process is firmly moving forward to hold the shooter accountable.

This week on the People Centric Podcast, we talk about unhelpful motivations and the ways they can quietly shape how we work. Not every motivation leads to healthy outcomes. Sometimes the very thing driving us is also the thing holding us back.   In this episode, we explore what unhelpful motivations are, how to identify them, and how they can affect our choices, relationships, and effectiveness at work. Whether you are a frontline employee, a manager, or an executive, this conversation offers practical insight into understanding what is really driving behavior and what to do when that motivation is no longer helping.   Have questions about this topic?

"There's a time when an exit is going to be inevitable — there may not be a time certain, but there is a time." Host Laurie Barkman reunites with Chip Scholz, founder of Scholz and Associates and author of Small Decisions, Big Shifts and the upcoming Handoffs, for a deeply personal and insightful conversation about the hidden leadership mistakes that quietly destroy business succession plans. Chip has spent nearly 30 years coaching executives and family business leaders through some of the most complex transitions in business — and he first met Laurie 13 years ago when she was a CEO candidate in a third-generation family business. Together they explore what great leadership evaluation looks like, why founders hold on too long, how hubris silently collapses delegation and decision-making, and the three stages every leader goes through on the road to retirement. Chip shares what he's learned — and what he's still learning — about the small decisions that ultimately create the biggest shifts.   Key Insights Culture fit is the foundation of every great leadership hire. The best organizations are people-oriented and performance-driven — in that order. When performance leads and people follow, bad things happen. Every hire, especially at the CEO level, should be evaluated through three lenses: strengths, motivations, and fit. Viewing the business as an asset — not a legacy — is what makes a clean exit possible. Founders who treat their company as an asset can make clear-headed decisions about growth, transition, and sale. Those who treat it purely as a legacy often hold on too long, stall the next generation, and turn what was once a strength into a bottleneck. Hubris is the silent killer of succession. When leaders believe they are the only ones who can run the business, delegation collapses, decision-making centralizes, and the organization becomes dependent on one person. Chip has seen companies where no one could spend $100 without CEO approval — and half the leadership team couldn't survive the transition when that CEO finally left. Retirement has three stages — and most founders only plan for the first one. Vacation, depression, and meaning and purpose. The honeymoon phase fades fast. Founders who haven't built outside interests, hobbies, or identity beyond the business hit a wall — and without a plan, depression follows. The goal is to reach meaning and purpose before a crisis forces the issue. Crisis is often the catalyst for transition — but it doesn't have to be. Whether it's a health scare, a lost client, or a market shift, crises force the introspection that should have happened years earlier. Chip advocates for doing that work proactively — in your 50s or early 60s — before external pressure removes your options. A hobby isn't a luxury — it's a succession strategy. Finding something outside the business that gives you purpose, community, and a sense of leadership is one of the most practical things a founder can do to prepare for transition. For Chip, it's woodturning. The point isn't the craft — it's the identity that lives outside the company.   Chapters: 00:00  Introduction of Chip Scholz 02:26  Reconnecting After 13 Years — A Personal Story 03:02  Leadership Evaluation: Strengths, Motivations, and Fit 06:37  Family Business Succession: Common Challenges 07:33  Asset vs. Legacy — The Mindset That Changes Everything 12:16  The Third-Generation Company: A Shared Story 14:04  Phantom Stock and Making 100 People Millionaires 16:00  The Five C's Framework for Leadership 17:42  Why Letting Go Is So Emotionally Hard 18:11   Hubris and Delegation: When Founders Won't Step Back 20:14  The $100 Approval Story 21:50  Why "Retirement" Triggers an Allergic Reaction 22:25  The Three Stages of Retirement 23:34  15 Years Preparing for Retirement — A Coaching Story 24:52  The Real Risk of the Depression Phase 26:44  What Does Retirement Really Mean? 29:33  Finding Purpose Outside Work: Woodturning 30:51  Handoffs — The Upcoming Book 35:02 Three Takeaways for Every Business Owner     Is your business truly ready—and are you?

Un acteur du monde du foot est l'accusé du soir. Il est ensuite défendu avant le verdict du juge.

Avec : Élise Goldfarb, entrepreneure. Yael Mellul, ancienne avocate. Et Benjamin Amar, professeur d'histoire-géographie. - Accompagnée de Charles Magnien et sa bande, Estelle Denis s'invite à la table des Français pour traiter des sujets qui font leur quotidien.

Egyptian print media has historically functioned as a cultural barometer, shifting from the early official bulletins of the 20th century into a relentless and aggressive form of capitalism on steroids. Professor Bahia Shehab discusses her book, "A Trade in Dreams: A Century of Egyptian Print Advertising", unpacking how visual culture has been both a witness to and a victim of political upheaval. Her research illuminates a century where advertising functioned as legalized psychological operations, deeply embedded in the daily life of Cairo. By dissecting the visual language of the past, she provides a necessary framework for understanding the mono-culture and flattening of aesthetic diversity in the modern era.   00:00 Introduction 01:32 Invention of the Egyptian Press 04:00 The Business Model of Early Advertising 05:50 Motivations for Researching Advertising History 08:20 Discoveries in Beauty Standards and Race 09:55 Sequential Chronology and Political Tectonic Shifts 12:13 Napoleon, Egyptomania, and Early Visual Communication 17:14 1920s–1940s: Agriculture and the Tobacco Export Industry 20:00 Professionalization and Multinational Ad Agencies 22:31 Hybrid Aesthetics: International vs. Local Design 27:21 The Nasser Era: Socialism and Nationalized Media 30:57 The Sadat Era: Peace Treaties and the Open Door Policy 32:33 Influential Figures and the Silencing of Female Voices 37:01 Domination of the Soap Industry 48:58 The 1940s: The Golden Age of Egyptian Advertising 57:04 Egypt's Leading Role in Regional Advertising 59:08 Book Tour and Future Perspectives   Bahia Shehab is a multidisciplinary artist, designer, political activist and historian whose work focuses on the interaction and intersection of modern identity and ancient cultural heritage. Her imaginative combination of calligraphy and Islamic art history produced cutting edge, beautiful, impactful street art during the Arab Spring and continues to inform her work as an educator and designer. Having always been concerned with identity and preserving cultural heritage, she investigates art history to reinterpret contemporary Arab politics, feminist discourse and social issues. Her culturally oriented work enables her to use history as a means to better understand the present and find solutions for the future. She believes that art may be employed for the purposes of social change and has explored this phenomenon through her artwork, which focuses on socially charged themes such as the Arab identity and women's rights. Her research is largely concerned with understanding the Arabic letters and has been preoccupied with Arabic calligraphy in much of her work. Her work has been displayed in exhibitions around the world and she has received several awards and recognition for her achievements.   Connect with Bahia Shehab

MMIP advocates fault police in Anchorage for not acting fast enough when young Alaska Native woman went missing in January. Kelly Hunt's body was discovered in April. Her death is now under investigation. It's the latest case revealing the persistent lack of trust Native communities have when it comes to MMIP cases. Hunt's case comes as the Trump administration is touting a surge in federal agents in selected locations to address the backlog in unsolved serious crimes, but tribal leaders and advocates say there's no real progress on the lingering disconnect between Native people and law enforcement officials on all levels. And despite some recent progress, there are serious hurdles when it comes to jurisdictional confusion and information sharing across agencies. GUESTS Regina Antone (Gila River Indian Community), lieutenant governor of the Gila River Indian Community Stephen Roe Lewis, governor of the Gila River Indian Community Alexis Savage (Iñupiaq), MMIP advocate LaRenda Morgan (Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma), Cheyenne and Arapaho MMIP chapter chairwoman and the governmental affairs officer for the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma Break 1 Music: Nakoda Healing Song (song) YB Nakota (artist) Break 2 Music: Bad Dude (song) Joe H Henry (artist) Real Things (album)

The Fresno Unified school board approved an $80,000 expenditure to renew its board leadership coaching contract for the next two years. The Fresno Unified School Board is divided over the city of Fresno’s decades-old Southeast Development Area plan. A proposed bylaw amendment would allow the legislative committee, comprised of three trustees, to “advocate and support legislation that aligns and improves student outcomes, goals, and guardrails.” The adjustment passed in a 5-2 vote after a tense back-and-forth between trustees. The Annenberg Wildlife Crossing over U.S. 101 in Los Angeles County is nearing its long‑awaited opening, with officials announcing a target date later this year.

Last week sparked a wave of reflection.This week goes deeper.If your collection is a reflection of you, then what happens when you change?In this episode, Brett breaks down how collecting motivations shift over time. Not in theory. In real life.He explores why most collectors enter the hobby reacting to hype, momentum, and the promise of fast outcomes… and what happens when that stops working.You'll hear: Why early collecting is driven by noise and external signals  The moment friction hits and forces real self-awareness  How taste develops through learning, not luck  The shift from accumulation to curation  Why mature collectors focus less on what the market values and more on what they value  How legacy, identity, and meaning start shaping decisions This is a conversation about growth.About moving from unconscious buying to conscious collecting.And about building something that feels like you.If you've ever looked at your cards and asked, “What am I really doing here?” this episode is for you.Sign up for Hobby Jobs and The Weekly Rip for freeGet your free copy of Collecting For Keeps: Finding Meaning In A Hobby Built On HypeStart your 7 day free trial of Stacking Slabs Patreon TodayFollow Stacking Slabs: | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | Tiktok ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

"Cancer and environmental disasters in particular, but the worsening of our environment, are really things that are great equalizers. And we recognize that we're all kind of in this world together. We can really face these issues on a more human level. I think always recognizing that if we look at something, we think, 'Well, that doesn't relate to me or that problem is it really isn't my problem'—it sure is," ONS member Margaret "Peggy" Rosenzweig, PhD, CRNP-C, AOCNP®, FAAN, ONS scholar-in-residence and distinguished service professor of nursing and Nancy Glunt Hoffman Chair in Oncology Nursing at the University of Pittsburgh School of Nursing in Pennsylvania told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about the effects of the environment on cancer care and outcomes.

Highlights From This Episode "The process of establishing these research priorities usually happens every three or so years. And there's a lot of preliminary work of talking to multiple parties of interest regarding what they believe the research priorities are, what nurses are seeing in clinics and in the community, and really multiple opinions regarding where the direction of research for ONS should go. And we heard this time—loud and clear—from researchers, from nurses in clinics and in communities, from scholars, and multiple other interested parties, that the environment in a very broad context was very much a concern and specifically a concern for impact on cancer care delivery, quality, and outcomes." TS 1:49 "You can take some cancer outcome data and you can take patient data related to home address or zip code or even larger geographic areas and kind of do correlational studies to see 'Does one impact the other?' … There's been a lot of those in the literature. But they are very helpful because they're starting to define this idea that beyond the idea of just demographics—gender, age, race—that the whole concept of neighborhood and the influences of the neighborhood do impact cancer outcomes. And that's where we're seeing the sort of explosion in literature across multiple malignancies, stages of cancer, and across multiple questions—specific kinds of outcomes, everything from quality of life to tumor progression." TS 8:43 "There is growing literature around how cancer delivery can be better prepared for climate-related disasters. … There's a good article by Pamela Ginex that was published in Supportive Care in Cancer talking about climate disasters and oncology care. And that was really a systematic review looking at published literature and starting to classify where are the disruptions and how could we think about that from a research perspective. They ended up saying there are these patient-level outcome disruptions that of course include treatment disruption but also include this inability to communicate with the oncology care team, which is quite distressing. And there's a workforce disruption because there are very distressed clinicians who are experiencing the same climate-related disaster in their own lives and feeling like they are torn between their commitment to work and their commitment to family." TS 13:25 "After all these years in oncology nursing, I am convinced that we have to get the consideration of neighborhood. I think we do have to get back to the neighborhood level in order to boost the resilience of communities against cancer throughout the cancer trajectory." TS 31:53 "Let's take some of this to the community and boost the community in that way. I really feel like we have to think about just boots on the ground outside of the cancer center, instead of just documenting disparities or even doing interventional work, but still within our little ivory towers." TS 34:21 "You see the work of many in looking at the specific environmental risks to nurses through the toxic chemicals to which were exposed. But then thinking about the people who aren't as protected as nurses and the environmental workers, who are usually contracted out or not in unions, who don't have some of the same protections that nurses or other healthcare workers might have, and they are exposed to the chemicals without proper training or sometimes without protection. All of these things are very much worthy of an oncology nursing voice elevating these questions and saying, 'How can we study this? How can we best mitigate some of these risks?' Oncology nursing—we have to use our respect and good name in elevating all of these questions." TS 35:39

In this episode, Thomas Plümper and Eric Neumayer explore the hidden challenges in modern science, from outright fraud to the subtler practice of “tweaking” data that distorts results. They examine why the self-correcting nature of science often falls short, how incentives and academic pressure drive misconduct, and the double-edged role of AI in both enabling and detecting fraud. The conversation also tackles debates around p-values and statistical reasoning, shares cautionary case studies, and proposes solutions like greater data transparency and stronger verification standards.

When we discover a revelation of God's grace, Christians who have been inundated with doctrines of doing in order to maintain right standing with God will be confronted with something that may challenge their past mindset. Under a legalistic, self-righteous, mixed-covenant church culture, it was more about 'doing things' in order to please God; to receive blessings, to keep from being punished, or to be noticed by others (all in the name of having a good testimony). We were programmed to think it was up to us and our obedience to remain tethered into fellowship with God. Many came from a mindset where failing to do 'enough of the stuff' might risk how God will react to them. The motivation was based more upon avoiding God becoming angry with them or withholding blessings. While living in the unchangeable grace and perfect love of God at all times, what is our motivation compared to the above? Now that we know blessings and forgiveness are secure and complete in Christ by the gift of His grace, what is the motivation for loving and helping others and doing good things? In short, we'll find it in knowing and believing in God's perfect love and who we *already* are in Him. --Available on Amazon - "Clash of The Covenants: Escaping Religious Bondage Through the Grace Guarantee" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0713ZSKY7
