Why does it feel like our culture is unraveling? Why do so many Christians feel discouraged, disengaged, or unsure how to respond? In this episode of Truth Changes Everything, Darrow Miller and Naomi Smith explore the deeper worldview battle shaping today's culture and explain why recovering a biblical worldview changes everything. Together, they unpack the sacred-secular divide that has led many believers to separate faith from everyday life, work, politics, education, family, and culture. Pulling from their latest book, Occupy Till I Come: Equipping the Next Generation to Break the Sacred/Secular Divide and Disciple Nations at the Level of Culture, they explain what Scripture teaches about Christ's lordship over every sphere of life and why the Great Commission is about more than individual conversion—it is about discipling nations. You'll discover why Jesus' victory on the cross gives Christians confidence instead of fear, how to faithfully engage culture without retreating, and what it practically means to "occupy till He comes" in your home, workplace, church, and community. Whether you're wrestling with cultural decline, searching for purpose, or wanting to understand what it means to live out a biblical worldview in today's world, this conversation offers hope, clarity, and practical encouragement. In This Episode Why culture feels like it's unraveling The hidden worldview battle behind today's cultural conflicts Why many Christians have become disengaged from culture Understanding the sacred-secular divide Is there really any "neutral" ground? What it means to disciple nations How Jesus' victory transforms our approach to culture Practical ways to live out your faith every day How Christians can influence families, churches, workplaces, and communities Why every area of life belongs to Christ Have a question you'd like us to discuss on a future episode?

Star Trek has inspired generations of fans with its optimistic vision of the future, but where does the franchise stand today? In this episode of Eat Sleep Nerd, we tackle one of the biggest questions in modern sci-fi:Is Star Trek broken?From classic series like The Original Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, and Voyager to newer entries like Discovery, Picard, Strange New Worlds, and more, we explore what's working, what isn't, and whether the franchise has lost its way.More importantly, we each pitch our own ideas for how to fix Star Trek. Should the franchise return to its roots? Take more risks? Slow down? Focus on new crews and new stories? We debate it all.

Recorded at the Battle of Ideas festival 2025 on Sunday 19 October at Church House, Westminster. ORIGINAL INTRODUCTION Tinder, Grindr, Bumble, Hinge, Feeld – whatever your dating preference, there's an app for it. Gone are the days of hitting the town in the hopes of catching someone's eye in a busy bar. People moan about their problems, and some want to leave digital dating behind, but for today's generation, the first spark often happens over a keypad. Should we be worried about the prevalence of online dating? For some, the game-like approach to virtual romance, with love thwarted or given a chance with a swipe of the thumb, is degrading. Novara Media's Aaron Bastani recently called for a ban on dating apps, as they ‘encourage the worst possible behaviour towards other people'. Others argue that the addictive nature of online dating, where multiple partners can be found at the touch of a button, has fed the addictive and attention-deficit qualities of an already fidgety generation. When love is always just a click away, why would anyone stick with just one partner? On the other hand, without online dating many argue that finding love would be near impossible. Pub closures, lockdown-hangover regulation on social spaces and less intergenerational mixing means it can be hard out there to meet someone the old-fashioned way. Many argue that panics about online dating foget that the app is just a tool to facilitate what people continue to do – meet up in person and carry on as normal. Building a profile online is no different to a lonely-hearts advert in the paper, or wearing your best dress and standing by the bar. Is love only worthwhile if it's found in the flesh? Is the boom in hook-up apps merely the straight world catching up with what gays have been enjoying for some time? Should we loosen up about online dating? Or is there something lost when it comes to romance if the story we tell our kids of how we first met starts with a ‘swipe right'?

Backstage at the New Orleans Jazz Museum during French Quarter Fest, we caught up with Cyril Neville, his son Omari Neville, guitarist Jake Eckert, and his son River — the teenage keyboard player who rounded out the lineup of the Legacy Coalition, a band built entirely from the sons and daughters of New Orleans music royalty.The conversation moves through what it means to inherit a sound rather than learn it — from sleeping on drum risers at Tipitina's as a kid, to stepping onstage next to your own father and realizing the torch has already passed. Cyril talks about the "osmosis" of growing up around the music. Omari opens up about his debut album, out now with a release party at the Louisiana Music Factory. And the whole crew previews their upcoming set at High Sierra Music Festival.Only In The Green Room goes backstage with the artists carrying jam, funk, roots, and Americana music forward.

Most parents are one conversation away from changing the trajectory of their child's life and most don't know it. In this episode, Lance and Annabelle Wallnau pull back the curtain on the parenting tools rooted in Scripture that actually worked raising their own kids and are now shaping their grandchildren. From a negotiation principle buried in Daniel Chapter 1, to the spoken blessing that acts like a vitamin for the soul, to why Jordan Peterson says you cannot raise children to be both safe and strong, this conversation is equal parts funny, practical, and prophetic. In this episode: * The "May I Make an Appeal?" method, straight from Daniel, that ends whining and actually works on strangers * Why making your child the center of the family backfires (and what to do instead) * The hand-touch technique that stops kids from interrupting mid-conversation * Affirmations vs. compliments and why one lands 10x deeper than the other * How to pass faith like a memorial stone to the next generation, the way Paul did with Timothy The legacy you leave isn't just money or memories. It's the stories of what God did and the tools you hand your kids to navigate a world that's getting harder by the day.

Madge Thomas leads a leadership academy most nonprofit professionals have never heard of — one that's quietly spent nearly two decades and $100M+ training over 165,000 nonprofit leaders worldwide. As president of the American Express Foundation and head of corporate sustainability at American Express, she's built it on a deceptively simple premise: invest in the leader, not just their programs, and the impact ripples outward — to the organization, the community, and long after any single initiative ends.Madge makes the case that the people powering nonprofits are the sector's most under-resourced asset — then shows how the Academy is changing that with funding, peer cohorts, alumni grants, and a curriculum rebuilt for this moment: AI training with Microsoft, storytelling with TED, and resilience for a shifting funding landscape. If you've ever poured everything into your programs with nothing left for yourself or your team, this episode names that tension out loud — and offers a different way through.In this episode, you'll hear:Why investing in individuals instead of just programs creates a "two plus two makes five" ripple effect that most funders never think to measureHow the Academy stacks funding, a peer cohort of ~75 leaders, and alumni grants to attack nonprofit burnout at the root — by removing the impossible choice between developing your people and running your programsWhat today's nonprofit leaders need that they didn't a decade ago, including AI training built with Microsoft and storytelling training built with TEDYou'll walk away with a new lens on where philanthropy should focus — and a reminder that you don't need a $100 million budget to start a ripple. A ripple starts with one tiny fracture in the surface.

Hey there Voices of the Bench community, this is Trish Jones with Ivoclar. If you've been curious about fast-firing zirconia to improve efficiency but aren't convinced it can deliver predictable, high-quality results, I'd encourage you to connect with us. Our new IPS Emax Zirconia offers multiple fast-fire protocols designed to help save you valuable production time while maintaining consistent results. Time is money in every lab. Don't wait. Reach out to your local Ivoclar rep today and discover how IPS Emax Zirconia can help streamline your workflow. As full-arch dentistry continues to grow, so do the demands on today's dental laboratories. That's why Knight Dental recently launched SimplyARCH Studio, a dedicated production environment built exclusively for full-arch restorations. To support this specialized workflow, Knight invested in an XTCERA milling system and carefully evaluated multiple CAM software solutions before choosing hyperDENT. The decision came down to exceptional milling quality, minimal hand finishing, and impressive production efficiency. But what truly set hyperDENT apart was the implementation process. From the very beginning, the team provided more than software training—they shared the knowledge and experience needed to build an optimized workflow for complex full-arch cases. With proven expertise in advanced milling strategies and laboratory production, hyperDENT helped ensure SimplyARCH Studio was designed for long-term success from day one. The Voices From the Bench microphones head to the FDLA Symposium for three conversations that perfectly capture what makes this industry so special. Thanks to the wonderful people at GPS Digital RPD, Elvis and Barb got to sit down with longtime friend Morris Fucarino to celebrate an incredible milestone—50 years as a CDT. Morris shares how he found his way into dental technology, what earning certification has meant throughout his career, and why he believes every technician should strive to be the best they can be. From belt-driven handpieces and gold crowns to running a successful one-man laboratory with just three loyal doctors, Morris proves that passion, relationships, and knowledge never go out of style. His stories are a reminder that while technology continues to change, craftsmanship and pride in your work remain timeless. Next, the conversation shifts to Enja Dorjchuluun from Sakr Dental Arts, who talks about helping lead one of Florida's fastest-growing laboratories while serving on the FDLA Board of Directors. She discusses the challenges of managing a lab spread across multiple buildings, the excitement of moving into a brand-new facility, and why giving back through organized dentistry has become such an important part of her career. From developing future technicians to creating educational opportunities and strengthening state associations, Enja shares why investing in people is every bit as important as investing in technology. To wrap things up, Elvis and Barb meet Joseph Núñez Reyes from GPS Digital Dental Lab, whose journey from Puerto Rico to Orlando is fueled by determination, curiosity, and a love for digital dentistry. After leaving biomedical engineering behind, Joseph found his passion in the dental laboratory, worked his way from the model room to supervising a modern CAM department, and now showcases laboratory workflows through social media to inspire the next generation of technicians. With dreams of one day returning to Puerto Rico to build a state-of-the-art laboratory, Joseph reminds us that the future of dental technology is in very capable hands. Ever notice the busiest labs aren't always the ones working the longest hours? They're usually the ones with a workflow that keeps moving—even after everyone heads home. Real productivity isn't about asking your team to do more; it's about having the right tools doing more for your team. That's where Roland's DGSHAPE DWX milling solutions really shine. Built to keep production moving whether you're milling a single case or running overnight, they free your technicians to focus on finishing cases, serving customers, and growing the business instead of babysitting equipment. That's what real productivity looks like: more output, fewer interruptions, and less time spent chasing problems. Because every hour your mill is producing is another hour your lab is creating value. If you're ready to get more from every production day, discover what Roland's DGSHAPE DWX milling solutions can do for your lab at rolanddental.com.Special Guests: Enja Dorjchuluun, Joseph Núñez Reyes, and Morris Fucarino CDT.

The standard understanding of life insurance goes like this: you buy a policy, pay the premiums, file it away, and hope it never gets used. Protection for your family if you die. That's it. But that's not what wealthy families are doing. American dynasties, high-profile entrepreneurs, and the country's biggest banks have been using life insurance as an active wealth-building tool for generations. Not as a replacement for investing. Alongside it. Valued specifically for what it gives them that a brokerage account never can: liquidity, access to capital, and control. https://youtu.be/773_NczfBww What follows unpacks the actual mechanics and why none of it is reserved for people with a Rockefeller-sized net worth. Table of ContentsThe core ideas:How do the wealthy use life insurance?The Trust and Insurance CombinationThe Cascading EffectThe Problem: Sequence of Return RiskThe Buffer in PracticeDo rich people have life insurance?How do the wealthy use life insurance?What is the Rockefeller strategy with life insurance?Why do banks own so much life insurance?Is using life insurance to build wealth instead of investing?What is the volatility buffer strategy?What is a family bank, and how does it work?Do I have to be wealthy to use this strategy? The core ideas: Wealthy families treat life insurance as a managed asset, not a forgotten product The Rockefeller blueprint combines trusts and whole life to create a cascading, multi-generational capital system Banks hold roughly $250 billion in life insurance for the same reasons: liquidity and stability Walt Disney, Ray Kroc, and others borrowed against policy cash value to fund businesses banks wouldn't touch Dr. Wade Pfau's research shows that whole life as a volatility buffer outperforms the "just invest the premium" alternative A family bank isn't a metaphor. It's a functioning system anyone can build. How do the wealthy use life insurance? Wealthy families use whole life insurance as the foundational “before asset” — a private, liquid capital base that comes before investing and supports every other financial move. They value it for tax-advantaged cash value growth, accessible liquidity that isn't tied to market cycles, asset protection from creditors in most states, and above all, control over their capital.  Through a combination of policy loans and trusts, they fund businesses, protect assets across generations, and create a cascading system in which each death benefit replenishes the capital pool for the next generation. The same mechanics are available at any level of wealth with a properly designed policy. How the Wealthy Use Life Insurance Differently Than Everyone Else Wealthy families could absorb financial mistakes more easily than almost anyone. A bad investment, a failed business, a lawsuit. They'd survive. Yet they still put guardrails in place, specifically through whole life insurance. If the people who can most afford mistakes still protect themselves this way, what does that say for everyone else? For someone for whom a serious financial mistake isn't just painful but potentially devastating, the case is even stronger. The mindset shift is this: wealthy families don't see a life insurance policy as a product they bought and filed away. They see it as an asset they manage and deploy. The attributes they value aren't what most people focus on.  They care about accessible liquidity that isn't tied to market cycles, so a bad year in equities doesn't force their hand. They care about asset protection from creditors and lawsuits, which whole life provides in most states (not all). And above everything: privacy, flexibility, and access to capital. Life insurance is private. The only way to know someone owns a policy is if they tell you. That's part of why this strategy stays largely out of view.  Some of the U.S. presidents who have publicly disclosed their assets have shown whole life among them. That's notable, not because presidents are financial geniuses, but because they're disclosing what they actually have. The wealthy don't open with "what return does this get?" They open with control, access, and certainty. That order of questions matters. The Rockefeller Blueprint: Trusts, Policy Loans, and the Cascading Death Benefit The Rockefeller name comes up constantly in Infinite Banking conversations. Almost nobody explains what they're actually doing. The Trust and Insurance Combination Here's the mechanism. The Rockefeller family combines legal structure and whole life insurance. A family bank can be structured in many ways, depending on the family's goals, need for asset protection, and desired level of complexity. It may be as simple as outright policy ownership, or it may involve a trust, an LLC, a holding company, or a layered structure where a trust owns a holding company that owns an LLC designed to manage family capital. The structure can vary, but the purpose is the same: to create a private, liquid capital base using whole life insurance. That capital can then be accessed and directed toward productive uses, such as buying businesses, investing, funding education, or building assets that strengthen the next generation. The Cascading Effect When a family member dies, the death benefit doesn't just get handed out. It's held in trust and distributed according to the family's stated intentions, then refills the capital pool for the next generation, who repeat the same cycle. This is simultaneously a legacy strategy, a banking strategy, a liquidity strategy, and a values-transfer strategy. The trust and the insurance connected together are what make it continuous. Neither piece alone does what both pieces do together. One nuance worth flagging: trusts are not income-tax magic. In most cases, a trust does not eliminate income tax; it simply determines who reports and pays it, whether that is the trust, the grantor, or the beneficiaries. What trusts can do well is provide structure, accountability, estate-tax planning when properly designed, and a measure of asset protection depending on the type of trust, state law, and how much control is retained. That is real value, but it is a different kind of value than people sometimes imagine.  This isn't a strategy reserved for famous dynasties. It works at a personal level too, one generation funding policies for the next, death benefits flowing down to nieces, nephews, grandchildren. Generation One is the hardest. The message isn't that you need to do this at scale immediately. It's about thinking long-term and taking small, high-quality steps. How a Death Benefit Becomes the Next Generation's Foundation The generational laddering concept, developed by Nelson Nash, sits at the heart of any family banking formula. A life insurance policy pays a death benefit. That death benefit funds the premiums on the next generation's policy. That policy pays its own death benefit, which funds the generation after. You can even skip a generation, grandparents to grandchildren. Each cycle creates a larger pool of capital. It's a growing family bank, not a one-time inheritance. The contrast between the two paths is concrete. A $1 million death benefit split four ways gives each child $250,000 outright. No strings. No direction. That's cutting the cord of accountability. The money is gone from the system. Whatever you hoped they'd do with it is just a hope. Hold that same death benefit in a trust, with clear intentions that it continues purchasing life insurance, and you have something different. Accountability with guardrails. Clarity and protective measures built into the structure. Not mandating, not controlling from the grave, but providing guidance and continuity. The goal isn't to control what your children do. It's to give wealth a structure that keeps it circulating in the family rather than dissipating in a single generation. Why Banks Hold Hundreds of Billions in Life Insurance This is the part many have never heard. Banks need somewhere to park their Tier 1 capital. Tier 1 capital is the core equity capital that absorbs losses and prevents insolvency. Regulators require banks to hold it and demonstrate they can access it quickly. What banks have consistently chosen as one of those safe places is life insurance. Bank-Owned Life Insurance, or BOLI, is how it works. Banks take out policies on highly compensated employees and hold the cash value as a capital asset. They use whole life, universal life, and a product designed specifically for banks. As employees age out, they cycle policies onto new people. Regulators cap life insurance at roughly 25% of Tier 1 capital. The numbers, as of June 30, 2025, are not small: Bank of America: ~$25 billion JPMorgan Chase: ~$12 billion PNC Bank: ~$11 billion Truist Bank: ~$7 billion U.S. banks total: ~$250 billion These figures are publicly available via bank rankings at usbanklocations.com, presented here as illustration, not endorsement. The institutions whose entire job is managing capital and risk at the highest level have parked a quarter-trillion dollars here for liquidity and stability. That's worth paying attention to. Not because banks are infallible, but because the reason they use it is exactly the same reason the wealthy use it, and the same reason it's worth considering in a personal financial plan. How Famous Entrepreneurs Funded Their Dreams With Policy Loans Walt Disney wanted to build Disneyland, but the banks said no, so he borrowed against his life insurance cash value.  Capital he controlled, on his own timeline, repaid on his own terms. No restrictive bank covenants, no lost equity stake, no waiting for approval. He used it to help build what became a multi-billion-dollar empire. The key point: he borrowed from his own capital base while the policy kept doing its job....

Who Gets to Define the Next Generation? Gen Z Finds Its Voice—and Its Anchor—in Christ Is Gen Z lost in the noise of culture, media, and politics—or are they quietly forging a radical new path of faith? In this powerful episode, Catherine sits down with high school senior and gifted poet Charis Shoemaker to explore how today’s young Christians are wrestling with identity, truth, and calling in an ever-fractured world. If you wonder what the next generation truly believes, and how Christian parents can encourage their kids to pursue God in the midst of cultural chaos, this is an episode you cannot afford to miss. About Our Guest:Charis Shoemaker is no ordinary teenager. A state award-winning actress, an eloquent poet, and—most importantly—a passionate follower of Christ, she represents a new wave of young believers speaking up for authentic faith. Charis’ original poem, “They Say,” recently brought a packed house to their feet at her homeschool graduation, voicing the hopes and struggles of a generation determined to follow Christ—no matter the cost. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: Gen Z Under the MicroscopeListen as Charis shares firsthand what it’s like to grow up constantly defined—often unfairly—by societal labels, politics, and the relentless barrage of social media. In an era of fractured opinions, what do young people really hear about who or what they’re supposed to be? The Power of Godly InfluenceCharis opens up about her own journey, including profound family challenges and the steady faith of her mother, a night-shift nurse who made time for Scripture and prayer no matter how hard life got. Her story testifies to the quiet resilience that shapes faith behind the scenes. A Poetic Anthem for Gen ZHear Charis' captivating poem, “They Say,” in full. Her words challenge generational stereotypes and culture’s attempts to define identity—while serving as an anthem for those who choose to be defined not by people, but by the voice of God. “If my life is to revolve around opinions, I would much rather they come from a God who is preeminent than a people who are insignificant... I would much rather they be words spoken by the Word who became flesh for me.” – Charis Shoemaker, 19:15 Dealing with Church Hurt and PainCharis recounts personal battles—including abuse and disappointment with the Church—and how those wounds could have derailed her faith. Yet, she found hope, healing, and her truest identity in Jesus. Parents will find wisdom here for helping kids process pain with grace rather than anger or withdrawal. Who Gets to Define Us?The conversation zeroes in on the theme of authority, urging listeners to ask tough questions: Is our identity determined by culture, by the Church, by ourselves—or solely by God, the Creator who names us and calls us His own? Hope Rising in Gen ZContrary to stereotypes, Charis reveals that a growing number of her peers are returning to church and hungry for real, unfiltered truth. She challenges parents not to underestimate Gen Z's capacity—and desire—for deep faith, and encourages both generations to risk bold, loving conversations about what matters most. “There’s a generation coming up after you that wants truth…Be there for us. Give us that thing to hold on to.” – Charis Shoemaker, 53:38 Why This Matters:In a season when so much is said about the failures and fears of the next generation, this episode highlights a surprising undercurrent: Gen Z isn’t just walking away—they’re wrestling, seeking, and often returning to the God who defines them. Catherine and Charis Shoemaker’s honest exchange offers hope to every parent praying for their child’s faith journey. Memorable Moments: The story of Charis Shoemaker's friend whose final words were simply, “Trust Jesus”—a moving reminder of the enduring legacy of authentic faith (35:33). An inspiring encounter with a peer who worships “mother earth” and how open conversation sows seeds of truth and friendship (52:53). The recognition that every generation faces labels, but the only voice that matters is God’s. Modern Application:Christian parents, take heart! The next generation is listening, watching, and longing for truth—especially from you. Your example, prayers, and honest conversations matter more than ever. As you foster their search for identity, remember: God alone must anchor our children in a world desperate to define them. Call to Action:How are you helping your children—or the young people in your life—listen to God’s voice above all others? This week, try having an open conversation about identity and faith at home. Share your own story, and invite them to share theirs—uncut, unfiltered, and real.

Welcome to a special edition of LIFTS x Athletech, where we explore the future of fitness, wellness and human performance. Recorded LIVE at Athletech in New York, hosts Matthew Januszek and Mohammed Iqbal are joined by five industry leaders to discuss how the world's leading fitness brands are adapting to one of the fastest periods of change the industry has ever experienced. As consumer expectations evolve and AI, education, technology, partnerships and community continue to reshape the market, today's operators are rethinking everything from group fitness and member engagement to talent development and business strategy.

Joella explains how EōS has reinvented group fitness by bringing boutique-style experiences into the HVLP model, why live instructors remain essential, and how innovative programming is attracting younger generations. Lauren discusses how strategic partnerships are helping brands extend beyond the gym, strengthen member loyalty and create new revenue opportunities. Warren shares why the industry's biggest challenge isn't a shortage of trainers but developing better ones, why soft skills matter more than ever, and how AI is transforming education rather than replacing coaches. Pete introduces the HALO sector, explains why fitness should think bigger than traditional gyms, and shares his vision for creating stronger partnerships across the entire health and wellness economy. Natalia explores the global FitTech ecosystem, startup innovation, investment trends and the technologies shaping the future of health and fitness.

In this episode of Friday Field Notes, host Ryan Michler tackles a critical societal crisis: the rise of vanishing fatherhood. With nearly half of all men between the ages of 25 and 45 currently childless, Ryan breaks down why this trend isn't just an economic narrative, but a profound crisis of belief.  He exposes the cultural lie that children are a restriction on personal freedom and contrasts it with data showing that 90% of fathers find fatherhood to be their deepest source of joy. True purpose comes from shouldering responsibility, not chasing comfort. Tune in to learn why raising righteous children is the ultimate battlefield for our culture.
