Podcasts about passion purpose

In our final Passion + Purpose study, we discover the endgame of our Salvation. From justification to sanctification, the endgame of our maturation in Christ is the passion and purpose laid for us in Romans 14 and 15. Listen as we hold up our broken world to these passages and seek God's grace and truth to navigate us through these days. In this message we discuss: - How Christians have always been on the margins of society, culture, and political power and how Jesus instructs us to respond - How we might maintain our voice and maximize our witness, choosing to make a impactful difference rather than just make witty points - How the litmus test of our sanctification is found in our desire to and determination to love and serve others, especially those who are not like us - How we should continue to love and endure no matter what comes against us. Just as Christ bore our reproach, so we must bear one another's weaknesses

We often pray for God to hold up the systems and institutions of the world wherein we have placed our hope. However, the Bible invites us to shift our hope entirely - out of this world, on to Christ alone. When everything around us moves and fails, Christ remains secure.

God invites us to trade pressure for purpose, to exchange stress to perform for power to serve God.

TOWARDS THE ULTIMATE GALLERY. Thaddaeus Ropac is an Austrian born gallerist specializing in international contemporary art. He founded the Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac in 1981, and today he represents more than 70 artists with galleries located in Salzburg, Le Marais and Pantin in Paris, London and Seoul. In September 2025 he will open his new 280 m2 space in Palazzo Belgioioso in Milan, with a show titled Georg Baselitz and Lucio Fontana, L'aurora viene (The Dawn is Coming). “Milan is the heartbeat of Italian art making.” “We represent around 70 artists and estates.” “I was able to help some incredible collectors to build their collections over the last decades.”

Everyone wants to be independent and autonomous. Unfortunately, this just isn't a reality for humanity. We all are dependent on something. We all take orders from someone. In this message, we discuss our sinful nature and how we are often unaware of sin's influence and grip on us. We learn that in order to achieve true, lasting victory over sin we must find a new and better master. Listen as we hear the Bible's invitation to embrace and exalt Jesus as our King and how only through active, intentional submission to Him can we obtain Resurrection Life. We must see how Jesus died because and for our sin and then see that our victory is directly connected to His reign over our lives.

What if your emotions were signals guiding you toward growth, balance, and joy? In this episode of Real Things Living, I sit down with Monique Elliott—licensed clinical social worker, life coach, and host of Mind Health Matters, to explore how passion, authenticity, and self-care can transform your life.This episode is a reminder that growth, gratitude, and self-kindness are essential for navigating life's challenges.

We've all taken risks before- some that have paid off and others that we've regretted. Following and trusting in Jesus is often portrayed as a great risk, asking us to step into the unknown. However, as we learn in this message, to not follow Jesus is actually the greatest risk of them all. Romans states clearly that we have all lost our way from God, having a disconnect from God at our core. We all need to be reconciled to God, by receiving a right standing with Him. We all suffer from this condition because of one thing. And salvation is only obtainable through one way. Listen as we discuss what sin has done to every person and how only through faith can we receive God's righteousness. How will this change our life? What does God's righteousness do for us? Why can we be so confident that Jesus is the one and only Way? Learn all that and more in this message!

The book of Romans is held up as one of the great, if not the greatest, resources for theology and Christian living. The backstory to why it was written only adds to its importance. In this message, we marvel at the Apostle Paul's journey from sworn enemy of the church to a devoted evangelist of the Gospel. His desire to see the world won for Jesus ultimately compelled him to visit Rome and bolster the fledgling church in the heart of the evil empire. Listen as we follow Paul in his quest to visit Rome and see how that underscores his words in the opening passage to the Roman church. He calls them - and us - to be "set apart for the Gospel" and embrace a life that is unashamed and full of God's power. This passage brings several questions before us that are both convicting and comforting. God desire to set *US* apart for Him. We don't deserve such a privilege, but we risk great loss if we ignore this invitation. - How set apart are you for Jesus, His Church, and His Kingdom? - Does your life suggest that you are "not ashamed" of the Gospel? Are you convinced that prioritizing Jesus and His Kingdom will never disappoint you? - Are you living by faith, in and under the power of the Gospel?

"Fall in love with some activity, and do it! Nobody ever figures out what life is all about, and it doesn't matter. Explore the world. Nearly everything is really interesting if you go into it deeply enough. Work as hard and as much as you want to on the things you like to do the best. Don't think about what you want to be, but what you want to do. Keep up some kind of a minimum with other things so that society doesn't stop you from doing anything at all."~ RICHARD P.

astrology-a fantastic discussion for "The BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast" with Tam Veilleux! Here's how I'd approach answering those questions, keeping your example of Dr. Anthony Metivier in mind, and adding some podcast-ready hashtags and titles:Answering Tam Veilleux's Energy Almanac Questions for "The BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast"Host: Granda BillGuest: Tam Veilleux, Creator of The Energy AlmanacQuestion 1: Spend Time Thinking about a leader I respect. List Five Qualities of that person and then pick two skills or attributes to develop in that vein.Leader I Respect: Dr. Anthony MetivierYou've already provided a brilliant foundation with your five qualities, Granda Bill, and I wholeheartedly agree! Dr. Metivier truly embodies these, and they are excellent traits for any leader.My five qualities for Dr. Anthony Metivier are:Passion: His genuine enthusiasm for his work and his commitment to scientific inquiry are palpable. It's not just a job; it's a calling.Devotion: Dr. Metivier demonstrates unwavering dedication to public health and to the scientific process, even in the face of immense scrutiny and pressure.Calm: Through unprecedented challenges, he maintained a remarkably steady demeanor, which was crucial for providing clear, consistent information.Coherence: His ability to synthesize complex scientific data and communicate it in a logical, understandable way to a broad audience is a hallmark of his leadership.Empathy: Despite the scientific rigor, there was always an underlying sense of care and concern for the well-being of individuals and the community at large.Two Skills or Attributes to Develop in that Vein (Inspired by Dr. Anthony Metivier):Skill to Develop: Strategic Communication under Pressure.Why: Dr. Anthony Metivier's ability to maintain calm and coherence while delivering critical information during a crisis was paramount. To develop this, one could practice distilling complex topics into clear, concise messages, and engage in public speaking or media training exercises that simulate high-stakes environments. This isn't just about what you say, but how you say it, especially when emotions are running high.In Dr. Metivier's Vein: This directly ties into his "Calm" and "Coherence" qualities. He consistently conveyed urgency without inducing panic, a delicate balance rooted in strategic communication.Attribute to Develop: Resilient Conviction.Why: Dr. Metivier's "Devotion" and "Passion" were clearly evident, but what truly allowed him to lead effectively was his ability to stand firm in his convictions based on a thorough understanding, even when faced with significant opposition or misinformation. To cultivate this, one needs to deepen their own understanding of their principles, cultivate a strong sense of purpose, and practice staying grounded even when external pressures are intense.In Dr. Metivier's Vein: This attribute blends his "Passion" and "Devotion" with an unshakeable belief in the method, allowing him to navigate adversity with integrity.Question 2: Meditate on the topic of leadership while asking the question, What do I need to know about myself and leadership now?(Granda Bill's Meditation/Reflection)"As I meditate on leadership, particularly through the lens of a leader like Dr. Metivier, the question, 'What do I need to know about myself and leadership now?' This brings me to a realization about my own authentic voice and the importance of compassionate transparency.#TheEnergyAlmanac,#Tam Veilleux,#GrandaBill,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#LeadershipDevelopment,#InspiredLeadership#AuthenticLeadership,#PodcastCommunity,#PersonalGrowth,#SelfReflection,#EnergyWork,#MindfulLeadership,#WellnessJourney,#LeadWithPurpose,

Five Ps of Creative Learning: A model discussed by Dr. Leo Burd, focusing on Passion, Project, Play, Peers and the crucial addition of Purpose in creative learning settings. Purpose and Passion: A pressing concern about whether today's students are struggling to find their "why," potentially due to pandemic disruptions, over-accommodation, or screen time overload. Progress Principle: Dr. Teresa Amabile's research on the power of recognizing small wins to sustain motivation and creativity—a strategy for both teachers and learners. Creativity Across the Lifespan: The empowering idea that creativity isn't just for the classroom—it's vital for happiness and fulfillment into retirement and beyond. Conversation Starters: Encouragement for teachers to ask students what matters to them and what they're passionate about, to help spark deeper engagement. Episodes Discussed: Billy Almon is an astrobio futurist known for his work in biomimicry and innovative approaches to creativity.
