In this episode, Ashanti Branch shares what he's been witnessing in schools and in the broader social climate surrounding ICE, Alex Pretti, and how it shows up in students' bodies, behavior, and sense of safety. He opens with a lunch conversation with a group of young men who name the pressures they feel: expectations, relationships, emotions, and not always having someone they trust when they're struggling.From there, Ashanti expands into a bigger message for educators and communities: when young people (and adults) don't have a safe way to release what they're carrying, they can end up walking around like “emotional landmines”, until one moment sets everything off.Don't wait for a crisis to make emotional well-being a priority. Ask students how they're doing, build spaces for honest conversation, and use mask-making as a practical tool for connection and healing.A lunch conversation with young men: pressure, relationships, emotions, and trust“Emotional landmines” and what happens when people store it all upMasculinity, power, and what violence can look like when manhood feels threatenedStories that show the impact of fear and rhetoric on young peopleWhy silence (and “staying in our lane”) isn't a protection planA direct invitation to educators: be proactive, not reactiveHow mask-making can open honest conversations in your school/community(0:00) Welcome + why Ashanti is speaking directly in this solo reflection(2:18) Lunch with young men: emotions, expectations, trust, and vulnerability(4:10) Naming “emotional landmines” and feeling the pressure personally(5:51) Early life reflections + how we learn to see the world clearly(7:54) A quote that frames masculinity, power, and the threat of equality(12:08) A young person's testimony: “How can I focus on school when I'm worried about my family?”(16:06) “What are we willing to do to protect what we say we believe?”(18:57) A story about a 10-year-old boy and the ripple effects of fear and threats(21:41) Why people “store it up” until one moment becomes an explosion(22:02) Protests, speaking out, and finding your lane for action(26:59) A direct ask for educators: don't wait for crisis—create emotional support now(29:21) Invitation: make a mask, invite others, and build connection before the “boom”Join/Contribute to our Young Men's Conference: https://everforwardclub.orgJoin our Skool Community: https://www.skool.com/efc-young-mens-advocates-2345Submit Questions, Reflections, or Episode IdeasEmail us: totmpod100@gmail.comCreate your mask anonymously: https://millionmask.org/Connect with Ashanti BranchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/branchspeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BranchSpeaksX: https://x.com/BranchSpeaksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch/Website: https://www.branchspeaks.com/Support the Podcast & Ever Forward ClubHelp us continue creating spaces for young men to be seen, heard, and supported:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/branch-speaks/supportConnect with Ever Forward ClubInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/everforwardclubFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/everforwardclubX: https://x.com/everforwardclubLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-ever-forward-club/#unmaskingwithmaleeducators #millionmaskmovement #takingoffthemask #totm #doace #diaryofaconfusededucator #emotionalsafety #emotionallandmines #maskmaking #everforwardclub

In this powerful message from John 15, Dave Bigler explores what it truly means to abide in Christ and bear lasting fruit as believers. Building on his previous teaching about the Parable of the Soils in Matthew 13, Dave reminds us that the seed is God's Word, and our hearts represent the different types of soil. He emphasizes that genuine disciples are called to remain deeply connected to Jesus—the Vine—allowing Him to prune us so we can produce the fruit He desires. Through personal stories, practical insights, and direct Scripture, the teaching highlights the joy, purpose, and intimacy that come from abiding, while addressing common struggles that keep us from bearing fruit.Dave unpacks key truths: the necessity of staying rooted in God's Word through consistent Bible study, prayer, and community; the reality that hardship and pruning are part of God's loving process to make us more fruitful; and the freedom found in surrendering control, naming our emotions honestly, and trusting Christ's easy yoke. Whether you're feeling spiritually dry, overwhelmed by life's "weeds," or simply desiring deeper growth, this message encourages you to let go, abide in Jesus, and experience the fullness of joy He promises.Outline:0:00 – Introduction: Dave introduces himself as an elder, shares excitement about teaching, and briefly recaps his prior message on the Parable of the Soils (Matthew 13) – the seed is God's Word, with four soil types (path/rocky/thorny/good).0:30 – Quick review of the soils: Rocky (shallow faith scorched in trials), hard-packed/path (Satan snatches the word), thorny/weeds (cares of life choke fruit), good soil (produces fruit).1:40 – Transition to John 15: Response to a request for a follow-up on abiding; prayer to open.3:15 – Reading John 15:1-17 aloud.4:00 – Key verse breakdown begins: Jesus as the true vine, Father as the gardener (v.1).6:00 – Branches and fruit: God cuts off unfruitful branches, prunes fruitful ones for more fruit (v.2); already clean by the word (v.3).7:30 – Core command: Abide/remain in Jesus to bear fruit; apart from Him, nothing (v.4-5); purpose is much fruit for God's glory and to prove discipleship (v.8).9:00 – Joy in abiding: Jesus' joy in us, complete joy (v.11); love and obedience like friends, not servants (v.14-15).10:00 – Chosen and appointed to bear lasting fruit; love one another (v.16-17).12:00 – Illustrations: Grape vine analogy; God as gardener/sower/potter; we are branches/conduits, not the source of fruit (Holy Spirit produces it).15:00 – Common false sources of fulfillment: relationships, social media, retail therapy, possessions, entertainment/TV stats, etc. – these are modern "idols" that can't satisfy.20:00 – What is fruit? Character of the Spirit (Galatians 5), good works, sharing the gospel; not a salvation requirement but evidence.25:00 – Pruning process: God removes dead/unfruitful things (even good things that hinder); pruning hurts but increases fruit; trust God's role as gardener.30:00 – Abiding practically: Stay connected through Bible study (cleaned by the word), prayer, community; name emotions honestly in hard times to reduce tension.40:00 – Takeaways / Steps:Know your place: God is God, we are branches (surrender control).Abide in the true vine: Daily prayer, Bible intake, obedience.See challenges/hard things as opportunities/pruning for growth.50:00 – Conclusion: Struggle of self-reliance; abide means letting go and trusting; God's yoke is easy/light.55:00 – Closing prayer: Gratitude for abiding, pruning, joy; request for strength to follow commands; Amen.Support Iron Sheep Ministries: https://Ironsheep.org/donateListen to the podcast: https://anchor.fm/ironsheepContact Dave & the ISM team: info@ironsheep.orgJoin the email list: http://eepurl.com/g-2zAD

Ep 225 One World in a New World with Paul Joseph RovelliWhat happens when creativity, spirituality, philosophy, and lived experience collide in a single life? In this episode of One World in a New World, Zen Benefiel welcomes Paul Joseph Rovelli—author, musician, philosopher, and founder of the Gnostic Church of Light—for a wide-ranging conversation on genius, sovereignty, consciousness, and the lifelong journey of becoming fully oneself.In this episode of One World in a New World, Zen Benefiel sits down with Paul Joseph Rovelli, founder and director of the Gnostic Church of Light, author, pianist, and host of The Gnostic Rebellion. What unfolds is a raw, intellectually rich dialogue exploring creativity, spirituality, individuation, sovereignty, art, mysticism, and the responsibility of self-creation.Paul shares his journey through Catholicism, punk culture, philosophy, music, metaphysics, and Gnostic thought—examining how genius emerges, how identity is formed, and why true awakening requires ownership rather than belief. Together, Zen and Paul explore paradox, ego, oneness, duality, culture, and the challenge of remaining human, creative, and awake in a complex world.This episode invites inquiry into:The nature of genius and self-acknowledgmentCreativity as a spiritual pathSovereignty, responsibility, and individuationWhy ancient wisdom must evolve for modern timesConsciousness, culture, and the myths we live byThis is not a conversation for passive consumption.It is an invitation to think, feel, and question deeply.If you're curious about spirituality beyond doctrine, leadership beyond conformity, and the courage it takes to fully claim your own path—this dialogue invites you in.

In this powerful episode of Apostle Talk, host Dave Bigler sits down with Ben Deeb, a quad-certified peer professional (CRPA, CJSR, PSP, CARC) and Center Staff Supervisor at Healing Springs Recovery Community and Outreach Center in Saratoga County, New York. Ben shares his raw, redemptive journey from severe cocaine addiction, repeated arrests (around 15 times), homelessness, and incarceration to becoming a transformative leader in recovery support. He candidly discusses how substance use disorders and mental health challenges affect a vast majority of the incarcerated population, the lack of meaningful rehabilitation or wraparound services in the justice system, and how a divine encounter with God during one of his jail stays ignited lasting change. Ben now supervises peer professionals, spearheaded the development of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) programs, recovery units, and reentry initiatives in the Saratoga County jail, helping justice-impacted individuals find hope, stability, and freedom.The conversation highlights the systemic failures in treating addiction as a moral failing rather than a health issue, the vital role of peer support and faith in recovery, and Ben's ongoing mission to train others and expand programs that bridge jail to community reintegration. This episode is a stirring testimony of God's redemptive power, the importance of compassion over judgment, and practical steps toward breaking cycles of addiction and recidivism. If you're struggling with addiction, supporting someone who is, or passionate about justice reform and recovery advocacy, Ben's story offers encouragement and real-world insight.If you or someone you know is struggling with substance use, reach out for help:Healing Springs Recovery Community: (518) 306-3048https://preventioncouncil.org/healing-springs/Shelters of Saratoga:(518) 581-1097https://sheltersofsaratoga.org/Subscribe for more inspiring testimonies of faith, recovery, and transformation.

From public leaders facing harsh criticism to powerful men avoiding accountability, this episode looks at what happens when fame comes before character.Pastor Bryant also talks about Diddy's upbringing, the lack of discipline, and how power without limits can lead to harm.

In this Bible Study, we dig into Leviticus 25, looking at both the Sabbath year for the Land as well as the Year of Jubilee. The Israelites were instructed, after entering into the promised land, to give the land a sabbath rest every 7 years. Additionally, they were instructed that every 50 years was to be a year of Jubilee in which all land ownership went back to the original owners, all debts were cleared and all slaves were freed. What was the purpose for both the sabbath land rest as well as the year of Jubilee? What are our takeaways for today? All this and more we discuss in this teaching.Outline: 01:54 Leviticus 25.1-7 - The Sabbath Year for the Land.Every 7th year, the land was to receive a Sabbath rest. So for 6 years you may Sow (plant) your fields, prune (maintain) your vineyards - your plants; and gather/reap/harvest - to gather to take to market to sell or save for future use. Then on the seventh year they were instructed not to: sow, prune or reap/harvest. Don't verses 5 & 6 contradict each other? No, V5 is speaking of “working” the land, to either reap/harvest - to sell or store up. V6-7, makes it clear that you can gather what you can eat - but not for profit or storage. You must trust the Lord. For an entire year, you must trust in the Lord's provision. Did Israel do this? - No, we will talk about that more later in our study. 10:01 - The year of Jubilee. Every 50th year (7x7 - 49 years), on the day of Atonement (10th day of the 7th month) at the sound the trumpet (shofar) the year of Jubilee started. Proclaim liberty, for all the inhabitants. At the year of Jubilee, everyone returns to their ancestral family property and family, and all land sales go back to the original owners (land ownership is a lease). If you purchase land, the price of the land (lease) is based on the number of crops you have until the year of jubilee.15:30 - Leviticus 25.25-34 - Redemption of land. The land belongs to God; the Israelites are only tenants, at any time after a sale, a family member may redeem the sold land at a prorated price.17:52 - What does “redeem” mean? As it relates to redeeming a person and redeeming land. The simple definition is to buy back at a price, to rescue to pay a ransom for something. What does the Bible say about redemption? Exo 6:6 - God declares that he will “redeem” Israel from the Egyptians. Exo 15.13 - Moses declares that God redeemed his people. Bought back. Jesus is our redeemer, bought us back, with a price (his blood). For more read Eph 1.7, Gal 3.13, and 1 Pet 1.18-19.22:26 - Leviticus 25. 35-55 - Redemption and Treatment of Impoverished Israelites Who Sell Themselves into Servitude28:22 - Why did God call for a land sabbath and for the year of Jubilee? To establish the land and the people are Gods - he is the owner. Lev 25.23, “the land is mine, and you reside in my land as foreigners.” To provide rest for the people and the land. - 25.20-22 God declares a massive blessing. To provide economic freedom to the people - no generational poverty or servitude. As a picture fulfilled in Christ - Typology. Jesus provides our ultimate jubilee - we are free from the debt or bondage of sin, we are adopted into our heavenly family, because we have been redeemed. 32:47 - Did they do this? Did Israel keep the land sabbath every 7 years? Did they follow the year of Jubilee every 50 years? What does scripture say? Read Chronicles 36.20–21, Jeremiah 29:10 & 25:11–12 (NIV).41:09 - Question for discussion: what are you missing out on because you are not trusting the Lord?43:21 - The Millennium Sabbath Rest for the world theory. https://answersingenesis.org/age-of-the-earth/Support Iron Sheep Ministries: https://Ironsheep.org/donateListen to the podcast: https://anchor.fm/ironsheepContact Dave & the ISM team: info@ironsheep.orgJoin the email list: http://eepurl.com/g-2zAD

During infertility, we can often blame ourselves for everything. This episode is about what that feels like, and WHY we do that!Blame shows up when we're desperately trying to make sense of the senseless. It can feel protective, even logical, but it slowly chips away at our sense of worth and hope. In this episode, we explore how blame sneaks into our thinking, what it does to our bodies and relationships, and how we can gently move toward compassion instead of self-criticism.Jesse and Doug dive into the topic of blame. Blame is part of a larger story about control, vulnerability, and the longing for answers. Understanding it can transform how we see ourselves and how we move through infertility. Together we explore how blame forms, why it sticks, and what it means to slowly let go of it.Help Make This Podcast Happen!We invite you to join the Uniquely Committed and help make this podcast happen.

In small churches, we're often the first people others turn to when life falls apart - whether we're on staff, leading worship, teaching kids, or serving on the elder board. In Part Two of the Do No Harm series, Laurie and licensed therapist Kati Quigley talk about what churches can do to help create more emotionally healthy spaces. This isn't about becoming counselors, giving advice, or providing solutions. It's about practicing empathy, allowing people to lean into their own painful places, listening well, and partnering with counselors and professionals we trust.In this episode:How small churches can normalize therapy and mental health supportWhy awareness of reactions matters (our own and others) in ministry meetingsHow to listen better and create safer, judgment-free spacesThe value of clear boundaries and trusted referral listsConnect with Kati Quigley:katiquigleycounseling.orgJoin our free Facebook Community: www.facebook.com/groups/smallchurchministryRate, Review, & Follow Laurie on Apple Podcasts"I love Laurie and The Small Church Ministry Podcast!!"

In this episode of Let's Be Clear, Pastor Jamal Bryant delivers a bold wake-up call about power, priorities, and misplaced faith in leadership. From a $250 million White House ballroom built during economic struggle to 7 million protestors marching for justice, he exposes how America's values have drifted far from “one nation under God.”Pastor Jamal Bryant  challenges the myth of who's really on welfare, reveals the truth behind food insecurity in America, and calls for a national economic shift — starting with a Target boycott and a movement to support 100 Black businesses.This isn't politics. It's a prophecy. And it's a message every conscience needs to hear.#JamalBryant #LetsBeClear #ImNotBuyingIt #BuyBlack #FaithAndJustice #EconomicFreedom #NoKingsMarch #SocialJustice #BlackEmpowerment #WhiteHouseBallroom #montgomerybusboycott  ------------The Jamal Bryant Podcast "Let's Be Clear" is a conversation that rips off the bandaid to serious relevant issues in the community and around the country. It assesses the wounds and offers prescriptions of insight, understanding and direction. No punches are pulled, but jabs are thrown to hit right between the eyes of every listener. New Episode Drops every Thursday at 12pm est. at jamalbryant.orgJoin our Membership or Support our Channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1yEY95beOqcUz5TUqxqVgQ/joinFollow or Subscribe on our socials ~https://www.facebook.com/jamalbryantpodcasthttps://www.instagram.com/jamalbryantpodcast/https://www.tiktok.com/@jamalbryantpodcast https://twitter.com/jamalbryantpod

Infertility is deeply physical. It's physically really hard.On the Infertility Feelings Podcast, we often talk about the mental and emotional challenges of infertility. In this episode, we are jumping into the PHYSICAL challenge.We have the honor of speaking with Dr. Meredith Brower, MD, from Reproductive Partners Medical Group in Beverly Hills. She is an excellent guide to what someone goes through physically when they are going through fertility treatment at a clinic. In this episode, we talk about all the ways that infertility physically impacts your life and what that means for your mental, emotional, and physical health. Learn more about Dr. Brower here! reproductivepartners.com/doctors/meredith-browerHelp Make This Podcast Happen!We invite you to join the Uniquely Committed and help make this podcast happen.

If you've been feeling more tired, foggy, or emotional lately — you're not imagining it. Science shows that seasonal changes can intensify grief, depression, and anxiety. A University of Michigan study found that on high-pollen days, suicide deaths rose by 7.4%, and among those already struggling with mental health, that number climbed to 8.6%.On today's episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I unpack how physical triggers like allergies, shorter days, and disrupted sleep impact emotional healing — and how to care for your mind and body when both are carrying the weight of grief.Remember that you can reach out anytime:sam@griefhab.orgJoin the Griefhab Community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/griefhab7Join Team Ruthless - for multiple support groups every week and EVERY holiday!https://forms.gle/Zw639P7htwg2qFDH6Become a Faces of Grief: Surviving Pet Loss Author:sam@griefhab.orgPre register for Healing Together Through the Holidays https://mailchi.mp/6ba0911aecfb/92dv5u9dkj

Infertility can make you feel old, at 28! Infertility messes with your own view of your age. Sometimes you get told that you have all the time in the world. That "you're young" and "you still have time." Then, in a weird twist, people will say, "You don't have forever."There are SO many emotions that come up when we talk about infertility and your age. In this episode, we are looking at all of them. We look at why Doug wanted to be a young age when he was a dad. We look at what people usually hear when it comes to their age. If you have ever felt like your age is bringing up feelings in your infertility story, this episode is for you. Help Make This Podcast Happen!We invite you to join the Uniquely Committed and help make this podcast happen.
