Podcasts about new vision

We’ve got a lot of new things to share with you this Sunday. First, and foremost, your ears may hear something surprising as we installed our brand NEW Sound System this week! This milestone marks countless hours of individuals from our community getting us ready for this install (special shout out to Thom & Ryan). This will make the making of sweet music to the Lord even sweeter than it already is! We will also be revealing our NEW Sermon Series, that will take us through the end of the year and into 2026. I can’t wait to share that with you. I’m very excited. AND finally, we will be taking this Sunday to share some NEW Vision regarding our big building renovation project that has been in the works now for some time. We’ve got big exciting updates to pass along as we slowly but surely move into the next steps in the project.

In this message from Ephesians 1:15–23, we dive into Paul's powerful prayer for the church — a prayer for new vision, spiritual wisdom, and resurrection power. Discover how prayer opens the eyes of your heart to see what God sees, and how you can live with the same power that raised Christ from the dead.

Last week, Senator Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) unveiled a new “national security war plan,” centered on reviving the middle class, winning the global tech race, and rethinking how Americans are protected in an era of shifting threats and changing geopolitical realities. Senator Slotkin joins Just Security's editors-in-chief Ryan Goodman and Tess Bridgeman to discuss the relationship between economic security and national security, the tools Congress should use to defend against threats to our democracy, the role for congressional oversight in domestic use of the military and in the recent military attack on a suspected drug smuggling vessel in the Caribbean, how the United States should engage with China in an era of increasing competition and cooperation, and a range of other national security and foreign policy priorities.Show Notes:  Senator Elissa Slotkin's launch of her new vision for American national security and foreign policy at the Council on Foreign Relations.   Just Security's AI and Emerging Technology Archive Just Security's Congress Archive

In this episode of the Mission Matters Podcast, hosts Matthew Ellison and Ted Esler welcome Dr. Matthew Elliott, President of Oasis International and publisher of the Africa Study Bible. Elliott shares his journey from serving with George Verwer to leading Oasis International, a ministry devoted to contextualizing discipleship resources for Africa. With over 350 contributors from 50 countries, the Africa Study Bible was designed to address the reality that over 80% of pastors in Africa lack formal training and access to solid biblical resources. Elliott explains how cultural disconnects (e.g. pastors using Western illustrations they've never experienced) underscore the urgent need for biblically sound, culturally relevant tools for leaders across the continent.The conversation explores “Bible poverty,” not merely as a lack of translation into heart languages, but as a growing crisis where millions of students are being taught the Bible in English without access to a physical copy. Elliott challenges the status quo of “toxic Bible charity,” advocating instead for building sustainable, local economic infrastructure that allows Africans to access affordable, printed Bibles. He also reflects on how African theologians and pastors offer the global church vital insights into community, generosity, and a more culturally attuned reading of Scripture. The Mission Matters Podcast is a place to talk about the importance of our Mission as Christians. The Mission Matters is a partnership of Missio Nexus and Sixteen:Fifteen, who have a shared passion to mobilize God's people to be a part of His mission.

By Angela CroudaceGerman melodic death-doom outfit Nailed to Obscurity have just released their highly anticipated new album, Generation of the Void. For frontman Raimund Ennenga, the record represents the band's boldest and most diverse work yet.Following the critical success of Black Frost, the group set out to explore wider sonic territory. “We wanted the next one to be more diverse, more dynamic,” Ennenga explained. “On one side, you have the extremity of Glass Bleeding with blast beats, and on the other, songs like Allure, which is a full ballad. We even pushed into more accessible territory with tracks like Spirit Corrosion, which I would call catchy in a way.”This push into new territory demanded that Ennenga redefine his own vocal role. Known primarily for his harsh delivery, he embraced clean vocals more extensively than ever before. “I had to find the sweet spot for my voice,” he said. “It feels like more mature singing now, and we really wanted to make sure it worked both on the record and in a live setting.”Recorded across Woodshed Studio in Germany and Jacob Hansen's studio in Denmark, the album benefits from a balance of fresh experimentation and polished production. Hansen's calm yet meticulous approach provided the final layer of refinement. “It's still unbelievable that this is our album,” Ennenga admitted. “Jacob was on our wish list for years, and he lifted the songs to a new level.”Lyrically, Generation of the Void reflects a more cinematic scope while also resonating with the turbulence of recent years. Themes of isolation, social unrest, and emotional weight run throughout, offering listeners both intensity and catharsis.Though no Australian tour is currently locked in, Ennenga expressed the band's enthusiasm: “We would love to come down under one day—it would be really special.”Generation of the Void is out now.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Many business leaders craft successful companies but only a few elevate that to the level of a masterpiece. What is it about some companies and leaders that allows them to achieve this status? How does the vision of ‘the good life' differ across corporations, large and small?Charles Spinosa is a management consultant and the author of several books. His latest book is called Leadership as Masterpiece Creation: What Business Leaders Can Learn from the Humanities about Moral Risk-Taking.Greg and Charles discuss Charles's vision of business leaders as artists and creators who shape organizations into masterpieces, rooted deeply in humanities and philosophy. The conversation covers various business leaders, including Jeff Bezos, and how their leadership styles create distinctive moral orders within their companies. Charles connects principles from Shakespeare, Nietzsche, and Machiavelli to modern business practices and explains how leaders can cultivate courage and virtue within their organizations. They also explore the differences between founders and inheritors of businesses, the role of leaders in shaping corporate culture, and the implications for leadership education.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:The three questions behind masterpiece leadership18:05: My three questions are: What always goes wrong here? That tends to be an easy question for 80% of them to answer. What would you love to do instead? That is the hard question. That is the one you think is easy, but what would you love to do instead? That is hard because these men and women are geniuses at managing around what always goes wrong. They have been rewarded for managing around it, and they are good at it. And then, once we can get to “What would you love?”—what risks do you need to take to do what you would love? And that is where we begin to work out the kinds of risks, the hard risks they are going to take. Because when they make these changes, if they do not succeed, they are going to be seen as not just foolish, but actually evil. They have gone out and harmed people in careers and so forth. So we have to figure out those, and then we have to put them in a kind of strategic order. But that is, in short, my masterpiece-building strategy. Leadership as a moral masterpiece03:10: Masterpieces are not just attractive and compelling aesthetically. Masterpieces give us a distinct new way to live that we consider a good life. They are moral masterpieces, and they are morally distinctive.Cultivating courage in organizations42:34: It is not that hard to build a company that cultivates courage. When you realize that part of courage is realizing that you figure what you think is right, and then you compose a way for people to hear it.Why leadership calls for admiration22:15: I can admire Google, and I can admire Amazon. A lot of people cannot. I have had people walk out on me when I say that about Amazon. But choose another company—choose The Body Shop, choose Zuckerberg's company, Meta—quite different from Amazon. Again, if we can admire different companies, we do not have to embrace everything we admire, and that gives us a sense of different good lives that we can admire. And I want that to be the virtue that we develop, which is a step above tolerance. I mean, really, with tolerance, which is the modern virtue for dealing with difference, we tolerate things that are different that we cannot eliminate. They are too powerful. We do not consider them quite as good. We tolerate them, but it is never a happy tolerance.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Friedrich NietzscheJeff BezosWilliam ShakespeareOthelloIagoHamletJack WelchMartin HeideggerLorenzo ZambranoJames C.

I am Jane Hogan, the Wellness Engineer, and the host of Wellness By Design. I spent 30 years designing foundations for buildings until the pain and inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis led me to hang up my hard hat and follow my heart. Now I blend my backgrounds in science and spirituality to teach people how to tap into the power of their mind, body and soul. I help them release pain naturally so they can become the best version of themselves.    Wellness By Design is a show dedicated to helping people achieve wellness not by reacting to the world around them but by intentionally designing a life based on what their own body needs. In this show we explore practices, methods and science that contribute to releasing pain and inflammation naturally.

Where will you find the vision to break out beyond what you can now see into God's purpose for your life? “Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus went to a lonely place to pray.” In Christ, we are invited by grace, into profound communion with God that transforms us into people of grace and vision.

In this episode of Quality Talks, NCQA President Peggy O'Kane speaks with Dr. Farzad Mostashari, Co-founder and CEO of Aledade. Farzad brings decades of experience in health IT, policy and primary care transformation to a candid and energizing conversation about what's holding back US health care and how we can move it forward.Farzad and Peggy explore the structural flaws in our system, from fragmented care and fee-for-service incentives to the undervaluing of primary care. They discuss how ACOs, Medicare Advantage and data-driven models can help shift the system toward better outcomes and lower costs.Peggy and Farzad explore:The Issue of Incentives: Farzad argues that while good care happens daily, it often occurs despite the system—not because of it. Misaligned financial incentives and lack of structural support hinder progress.The Key to Accountable Care: Access, point-of-care intelligence, care transitions and targeted wraparound services form the core of Farzad's actionable framework for improving outcomes.Medicare Advantage and ACOs: A nuanced discussion of how MA and ACOs compare, what each gets right, and how to align incentives across Medicare.What Works? A call for smarter learning networks that identify and spread what's truly effective in improving care and reducing cost.This conversation offers a timely and practical roadmap for advancing value-based care. Farzad's clarity, humor and strategic insight make complex topics accessible—and energizing. Whether you're a policymaker, provider or health system leader, this episode delivers ideas worth implementing. Key Quote:The most expensive thing in health care is the thing that no one wants. It isn't the fancy doctor's office or the upgraded scan. It's the hospitalization.Hospitalizations are ridiculously expensive and the cost has been going up. There's classic charts that show inflation and TVs are down 98% in cost, and hospitalizations are up. Like, the thing in the American economy that has had the most inflation over the past two decades is hospitalization. And no one wants that. No one wants to be hospitalized. And, look, if you need to be hospitalized, you're gonna be hospitalized. That's where we can break apart that concept of not needing a hospitalization is the highest quality hospitalization. What's the highest quality hospitalization? The one you didn't have!-- Farzad Mostashari, MDTime Stamps:(01:20) Distinguishing Incentives in Health Care(06:25) Unlocking the Potential of Primary Care(09:31) Thinking Holistically About Accountability (15:22) Measurement, Medicare, ACOs and More(26:07) The Doctor's Role in the Era of AI(33:04) Peggy's ReflectionsLinks:Connect with Farzad Mostashari

THE GOOD DEATH VIRTUAL BOOK TOUR: Suzanne B. O'Brien RN in Conversation with Dr. Karen Wyatt. Renowned expert Dr. Karen Wyatt joins us for a profound conversation on end-of-life care, sharing lessons learned from her work with hospice patients and urging us to embrace the inevitability of death with awareness and gratitude. We delve into the missed opportunities for meaningful dialogue within medical systems, the tension between profit-driven hospice models and the deeply personal nature of dying, and the need for better community training to prepare families for what hospice truly provides. Drawing on Dr. Ira Byock's white paper, we examine solutions to systemic issues like fraud, inadequate staffing, and the disconnect between corporate priorities and compassionate care. Together, we explore how compassion, forgiveness, and holistic practices can transform how we care for the dying, reminding us that presence, understanding, and the body's natural capacity to heal deserve a central place in healthcare's future.   (00:02) Transforming End-of-Life Care in America (10:03) Revamping End-of-Life Care System (13:57) Improving End-of-Life Care System (24:55) Embracing Healing Through Compassion and Forgiveness (35:31) Exploring End-of-Life Care Perspectives    Register to join us for FREE: THE GOOD DEATH BOOK CLUB EXPERIENCE: 12 MONTH FREE DEATH AND DYING COURSE  Or visit our website here!  GET THE GOOD DEATH BOOK Here     Meet our guest: Dr. Karen Wyatt Founder, End-of-Life University Best-selling Author Website: eulopodcast.com FB: End-of-Life University    Please Share!

In this Sunday Gathering sermon, Emily Perry draws inspiration from Frederick Douglass' powerful 1852 speech “What, to the Slave, is the Fourth of July?” to examine the gap between the high ideals of faith and the painful realities we see around us. Through stories of figures like Maximilian Kolbe, Martin Luther King Jr., and her own personal experiences, Emily explores how A Course in Miracles offers a new vision of faith—one that is not blind or hollow, but grounded in love, equality, and trust in each other's holiness. You'll learn: Why the Course teaches that God has perfect faith in you How we misplace our faith—and how to redirect it toward healing What it means to place faith in others and call forth their true nature How faith can become a living force for compassion, courage, and transformation If you've ever struggled with the concept of faith or wondered what it truly means on the spiritual path, this message is a call to embody the world we long to see. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles. We are the publisher of the Complete and Annotated Edition of the Course (known as the “CE”), which is available as a paperback*, ebook*, and via Audible. Our work grows out of our commitment to be as faithful as possible to what A Course in Miracles says,  years of dedication to walking this path ourselves, and a desire to see the Course's purpose realized in the lives of students and in the world.

Jeff Halevy has lived many lives. After surviving a childhood brain tumor and living with undiagnosed PTSD, he poured himself into achievement – becoming an award-winning, multi-exit entrepreneur in health, wellness, and technology. He built businesses at the intersection of fitness and behavior change, served as a correspondent for NBC's Today Show, hosted the internationally syndicated Workout From Within with Jeff Halevy, and advised on Michelle Obama's “Let's Move!” campaign. Outwardly, he was thriving. Internally, he was struggling.The pressure to produce and the need to stay in motion became unsustainable. Jeff eventually hit a spiritual bottom that forced him to reassess how he was living – redefining how he channeled his energy and passion in a healthier, more sustainable way. Not long after that shift, tragedy struck: his wife died by suicide following severe mental health challenges compounded by postpartum, leaving Jeff to raise two young children alone.In this conversation, Jeff shares the pain and trauma that shaped him, the emotional cost of high achievement, and how fatherhood became the anchor that kept him grounded. He also reflects on how his journey – through undiagnosed trauma, success, loss, and recovery – inspired the founding of Continuum, where he now serves as founder and CEO. Continuum is a luxury wellness club that uses biometric data and AI to deliver individualized, precision-based wellness – with the mission to make the practice of wellness as precise and intentional as the practice of medicine.This episode is about trauma, sobriety, grief, and turning pain into purpose: how one man's healing journey became the blueprint for helping others.Topics include:Emergency brain surgery as a teenager and its lasting psychological impactLiving with undiagnosed PTSD while building a wellness careerWhen overachievement becomes survival – and how that is not sustainableLosing his wife to suicide and raising two infants aloneBuilding and exiting multiple companies in fitness and healthFounding Continuum: precision wellness through biometric data and AIHow Jeff has come to view success through the lens of fatherhood and being emotionally present For more information about Jeff's new wellness company, Continuum, please click here: ContinuumConnect with Zachttps://www.instagram.com/zwclark/https://www.linkedin.com/in/zac-c-746b96254/https://www.tiktok.com/@zacwclarkhttps://www.strava.com/athletes/55697553https://twitter.com/zacwclarkIf you or anyone you know is struggling, please do not hesitate to contact Release:(914) 588-6564releaserecovery.com@releaserecovery

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we discuss Apple's roadmap for new Vision headsets and smart glasses over the next few years. At the end of June, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo leaked an extensive roadmap of the company's plans for its Vision and smart glasses product lines until the end of the decade. Most recently, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman provided some clarifications about the new Vision Pro that is expected to launch this year. With the information from these two highly reliable sources, we're now expecting Apple to launch five new Vision or smart glasses products by the end of 2028. We discuss our thoughts on each of these devices, how they're likely to fit into Apple's lineup, and how customers may respond. In light of Samsung's announcement of the ultra thin Galaxy Z Fold7 and Z Flip7 this week, we also touch on Apple's foldable ‌iPhone‌ plans.

Download the Sermon Notes - https://bit.ly/NVC-Sermon-Notes In this powerful opening message, Pastor Duane unpacks what it truly means to live free from condemnation. Through Romans 8:1–2, we discover that freedom isn't something we earn—it's something we receive because of Jesus. Paul's honesty about the struggle between flesh and spirit reminds us that even in our weakness, the truth remains: if you are in Christ, you are not condemned. This message is a call to stop living in shame, to reject the lies of the enemy, and to walk in the freedom and identity Jesus has already secured. Freedom isn't your fight—victory is. Let go of the chains. You've already been set free. ---------------------------------------- New Vision, led by Pastor Duane Garner, is a non-denominational church located in Westmoreland, Tennessee.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this episode, Drew and I take you through a whirlwind week where politics, world affairs, and tech innovation collide. We dissect Biden's shocking cancer diagnosis and what it means for the country, dig into Bernie Sanders' eyebrow-raising admission about the Democratic Party, and go deep on just how broken the government really is—and how (or if) it can ever be fixed. We tackle the big questions: What does it take to create a thriving middle class? Should we trust the government to spend more and do more, or do we need to completely rethink the machine? Are we living through a crisis of vision, where our leaders offer no North Star to inspire the country? And with news breaking on both the NIH's gain-of-function research and China's clampdown on gene editing, are we prepared for the next wave of scientific disruption?
