What does it mean to fear God? And why is it essential for gaining biblical wisdom? In this episode, we dive deep into Proverbs 8 and explore the foundational principle that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.In this video, we discuss:✓ What biblical wisdom really means (it's more than just knowledge)✓ The true definition of fearing God and why it matters✓ How the fear of the Lord transforms your daily life✓ Practical steps to grow in godly wisdom✓ Why wisdom is more valuable than wealth✓ The difference between being afraid of God vs. fearing God✓ How God's forgiveness leads to greater awe and reverenceKey Scripture References:Proverbs 8:1-11 - Wisdom calls out to youProverbs 1:7 - The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledgeProverbs 9:10 - Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdomPsalm 86:11 - Prayer for an undivided heart2 Corinthians 7:1 - Perfecting holiness in the fear of the LordWhether you're facing difficult decisions, seeking direction, or wanting to live more faithfully, this conversation will help you understand why fearing God is the foundation for everything else in the Christian life.

We may have been born again, but that doesn't mean we've learned how to win the war within. We may have followed Jesus for years, but that doesn't mean we've grasped the key to Christian maturity. We can be gifted, but that doesn't mean we're seasoned; active in ministry, but that doesn't automatically mean mastery over self. The Holy Spirit doesn't just want to use us—He wants to form us, until Christ's life becomes the life that leads us. And this is how we finally win the war within—not by striving harder or serving more, but by surrendering deeper to the Spirit who transforms us from the inside out.

The flesh is not just our weakness—it's our willfulness. When it rules, it reshapes our desires, fetters our freedom and wars against the Spirit's work of ushering in peace. This battle isn't fought out in the streets; the war is waged in the soul. The flesh deceives us, arguing that life works best when we sit on the throne. But every time the flesh rules, peace dies—first in our hearts, then in our relationships — with people, places and things. The only way we overcome is to live life surrendering to He who has overcome the world.

Every day the world is shaping us — with screens, schedules, slogans, and algorithms whispering, “Buy this, chase this, be this.” We think we're free, but our loves are being trained; we think we are choosing, but our choices are being choreographed. Before we know it, we are more shaped by our feeds than our faith, more discipled by Netflix and podcasts than by Jesus. But there's another way — the greater love of the Father. His love frees us from restlessness, reshapes our desires, and makes us whole. We are being shaped by love — the false loves of this world, or the Father's love that makes us whole and free.

In this lecture, we discuss how the Prophet ﷺ exemplified perfect character, practical ways to control anger, and steps to cultivate true piety and good manners in daily life.

If you've ever thought, "Just build me a website," and assumed it was a straightforward process, this episode is for you! Daniel is joined by Paula Allera, Private Practice Elevation's own project manager, for a behind-the-scenes look at what really goes into website project management.  With a background in web design, development, and digital marketing, Paula brings a rare blend of technical knowledge and operations savvy that helps keep projects on track. In this conversation, Daniel and Paula unpack the often-invisible side of website development — from estimating timelines to handling revisions and communicating with multiple stakeholders.  You'll learn why timelines can shift, how a single project can involve dozens of communication touchpoints, and why having one main point of contact can save weeks of time.  Paula shares the tools she uses to create realistic projections (including the beta distribution method) and why even the most well-planned projects need buffer time. If you're planning a website project or currently working with a web designer, this episode will give you the insights you need to be a more prepared and empowered client.  Understanding the process isn't just helpful — it can actually speed things up and lead to a better result. Key Takeaways: Project timelines aren't guesses; they're calculated using a formula that considers best- and worst-case scenarios, plus client responsiveness. Revision requests should be thoughtful and consolidated — too many small changes can create delays and affect other projects. Website drafts are not the final product. There's a process in place for revisions, pre-launch QA, and ongoing post-launch edits. Technology limitations (like device compatibility) are real. Perfecting a site for every screen isn't realistic or necessary. Communication can quickly become overwhelming when too many people are involved. A single point of contact streamlines everything. Every project is an opportunity to learn. Paula shares how documenting "lessons learned" helps improve outcomes over time. Whether you're launching your first website or your fifth, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence to navigate the process smoothly.

We live in a time when the battle is no longer hidden — anxiety, violence, division, and deception press on every side. From the classroom to the boardroom, from our homes to our headlines, blows are aimed at the very place we think, hope, and believe. This fight is not against flesh and blood but against powers and principalities that seek to steal peace, distort truth, and destroy identity. In this moment, we dare not step into the fray uncovered. We must reach for a salvation that shields our minds, a word that becomes our weapon, and prayer that breathes heaven's strength into our earthly battles. This is not the work of one generation or one culture alone, but the call of the whole body of Christ, young and old, every tribe and tongue — to stand firm together covered from head to toe.

Syngenta Flowers' Dr. Jamie Gibson joins Tech On Demand host Bill Calkins to discuss best practices for growing high quality pentas—both seed and vegetative varieties. As Jamie said multiple times, one of the biggest keys to getting the most out of pentas is keeping them warm. But there's a lot more to maximizing production and there are nuances to understand with vegetative types, like Syngenta's Starcluster and Starcluster Cascades, as well as the seed range, which includes Beehive, BeeBright and HoneyCluster. Jamie and Bill kick off the discussion with vegetative pentas in the Syngenta range—Starcluster and Starcluster Cascade. Jamie calls out some key attributes like huge umbels, thick foliage and major pollinator attraction before digging into propagation from URCs or callused cuttings. If you're concerned about propagating pentas from cuttings, a good idea might be to bring in liners and just finish them in about 8 weeks or even start from enhanced, larger liners to cut off a few more weeks in production. Another tip is for growers in Northern climates to bring in cuttings after week 6 to reduce the risk of cold-chain damage. Remember, it's a heat loving crop and receiving vegetative pentas after week 6 still gives plenty of time to finish the crop for Mother's Day. Jamie follows production through finish and even teaches Bill a new term, “Xanthophyll,” the yellow pigmentation that sometimes makes pentas roots look like they're struggling even though they're completely healthy. Then Jamie and Bill turn the page and start on the seed-raised types. Jamie suggests buying in plugs from experienced pentas propagators because nailing pentas plug production can be quite tricky. Transplanted plugs still need to be grown warm (66-75F), and it's recommended to consistently test pH and make sure it stays above 6.2 and also consider adding calcium nitrate to keep the pH up and tone the crop. In terms of positioning the seed-raised series from Syngenta, Jamie suggests BeeBright for packs and smaller pots, HoneyCluster for quarts and Beehive for baskets.

What does it really mean to have faith that stands strong in every storm? Pastor Tim Delina shares a powerful word on the importance of "perfecting faith," walking us through four moments in Matthew where Jesus rebuked His disciples for having little faith. He explains how faith is essential for provision, for peace in the middle of life's storms, and for clearly hearing the voice of God. Using Matthew's Gospel as the main text, Pastor Tim challenges us to shift our focus from self-discovery to God-discovery, reminding us that true faith grows as we know Him more. With a striking illustration of Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps training in the dark, Pastor Tim calls us to trust God even when we cannot see what is ahead. Faith is not just believing God can act, but trusting Him enough to keep following Him through the unknown. Watch now and be encouraged to invite Christ into your life, grow deeper in faith, and stay on track with God's plan.

We're living in a day when it feels like the very air is thick with — fear, division, and pressure coming at us from every direction. And the battle isn't only out there; it rages inside us too, with voices of doubt, anger, and discouragement. Just like the Roman soldier couldn't survive without his shield, none of us can face today unprotected. What scripture calls the shield of faith is God giving us covering, courage, and strength. And when we lift it together, faith doesn't just guard our lives — it becomes a fortress darkness can't conquer.

Trying to raise kids who have a genuinely healthy relationship with food and their bodies? Join Jennifer Reid, MD as she speaks with Oona Hanson, educator, writer and parent coach, about how much power parents have to nurture kids who trust their own hunger cues, enjoy movement for joy rather than punishment, and develop the kind of inner voice that supports rather than sabotages them throughout life.Understanding Diet CultureDiet culture isn't just about dieting—it's pervasive beliefs about food and bodies that we're systematically taught."It's the air we breathe. It's the water we're swimming in... We aren't born with these ideas [about good/bad foods]. These are something we're systematically taught through culture."Parent Guilt and Self-Compassion"Parents don't cause eating disorders and parents can actually be the most powerful source of support for recovery."About OonaOona Hanson is a writer, educator, and parent coach specializing in helping families navigate diet culture.

Every day, invisible powers are attempting to dress us — how we think, how we react, how we love, and what we fear. And often, without even noticing, we step into our day wearing their lies — clothed in worries, armored in self-protection and self-promotion. But there's another way to dress. God offers His armor—not for conquering people, but for standing firm in a world of shifting truths and manufactured fads. Dressing for the invisible war isn't just for protection; it's the daily practice of becoming who we really are in Christ.

This talk, presented by Allie Vaknin, is the second of a series of reviews during which she focuses on the Perfection of what are called Paramis, qualities of consciousness that, when fulfilled in their potential, nurture the realization of Nirvana.  Tonight's talk focuses on the Parami of Sila, virtuous thoughts and deeds, reflected in what […]

We go about our day — commuting, checking email, social media, debating over social issues — while an unseen enemy infiltrates our minds, shapes our desires, and rewires our beliefs. This isn't loud, obvious war. This war is subtle. And before it takes our peace, our joy and our purpose, it takes our attention. We are living in the midst of a spiritual war — not against people, as much as it's against powers. It's a war of ideologies, affections, and allegiances — and if we don't wake up to it, we'll be destroyed by it.

Summer may be winding down, but we're not quite ready to let go of beach days, backyard cookouts, or ice cream cones. We love ice cream here at SciFri, so we're pulling a few of our favorite ice cream science stories out of the freezer this week.Back in 2015, ice cream expert Maya Warren sat down with Host Ira Flatow to help us understand a science mystery of “unmeltable” ice cream that made the evening news in Cincinnati.That same summer, Ira spoke to Jeff Potter, author of Cooking for Geeks, and Brian Smith, founder of Ample Hills Creamery, who give us science-backed tips for making smooth, velvety ice cream at home.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

We live in a fallen evil world. Because of sin, the natural drift of the current of this world is downward. If we're honest, the darkness and evil isn't just out there; we feel it in us from time to time too.  The natural response is to resort to our own resources and efforts to make it — work harder, go to more therapy, be nicer, change schools or find new friends. All of these things may be appropriate, but without the wind of the Spirit it just leads to futility and exhaustion.  We need to be filled with the Sprit.  We need to be intoxicated Christians.

God can do all things and works through us to fulfill His purposes. Too often, we hold back because we think we lack what's needed. In Acts 3:1–8, Peter met a lame beggar and, in faith, trusted God to meet his need — and He did. Money can help, but it's not always the answer. God asks us to be available, to trust Him, and to believe He has already given us enough to serve others

Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. As we kick off Season 14, I've been revisiting past episodes and reflecting on the incredible insights our guests have shared since we first launched in 2019. I mentioned last week that this reflection started when a young filmmaker, Vishal Sharma[i], reached out to me and offered to create YouTube Shorts[ii] from past interviews. When I saw his first example, something clicked. As I reviewed older episodes, I realized I had only scratched the surface of the lessons within each interview. So as we dive into this review of past conversations, know that this review isn't just for you—it's for me as well. I've learned that slowing down helps us to uncover even more wisdom, and I'm excited for us to walk this path together. For today's Episode 367, we're going back to Episode 66[iii] with the late Bob Proctor—the first person who challenged me to think. Last week we covered our first YouTube Short[iv] where we picked out three important nuggets of wisdom that I had missed until re-listening to this episode. We covered in PART 1: ✔ Top Lesson from Episode 66 – Where we refined the question: “What do you really want to do with your life?” hoping that midway through 2025, we can refine our goals, and see if we are on track. ✔ Sage Advice Tip #1: “We have been given the mental faculties to create our own environment. “We explored how to go beyond our five senses and tap into the six higher faculties of our mind (further developing our reason, intuition, perception, will, memory and imagination.” ✔ Sage Advice Tip #2: “There's only one mind.” We looked at how our actions matter because we are all deeply connected. ✔ Sage Advice Tip#3: “We are a soul—we don't have one.” We reflected on the perfection within each of us, and how this perfection continually drives us toward bigger and better possibilities. Today, we are going to cover 2 short video clips and dive into the wisdom contained within each, making the connections with each nugget of wisdom learned. And since I'm always looking to connect the science to our learning, there are some age-old success principles we will cover today, that are proven to work time and time again. While science doesn't call out the success principles exactly as we will cover them today, Stanford University neuroscientist and tenured professor of neurobiology, Dr. Andrew Huberman does discuss “the science of imagination and its impact on creativity and learning” on his recent podcast episode “The Science of Creativity: How to Enhance Creative Innovation.”[v] Keep an open mind, as we discover how we can rise to new levels of success by applying the timeless principles we explored in Episode 66. For today's EP 367-PART 2 of our review of EP 66, we will cover: Sage Tip #1: In the first clip we learned that “If we want to improve our RESULTS, we must focus on the six faculties of our mind—reason, intuition, perception, will, memory, and imagination.” The key is to choose one of these faculties and dedicate time to studying and applying it until you see real results from your deeper understanding. You could even spend an entire year on just one faculty, and it would be time well invested. Sage Tip #2: In the second clip we learned that “Goals are not set to get; they are set to grow.” Sometimes goals don't unfold the way we expect, and that's okay—as long as we keep moving forward and growing. To do this, we must keep studying, learning about ourselves, clarifying what we truly want, and seeking specialized knowledge in our field from those who have gone before us. VIDEO 1 Watch by Clicking Here Click on the link in the show notes to watch video clip 1 where I asked the question “what are some of the common reasons why people don't reach their full potential” as I've always wondered why many of us get stuck. It really has boggled my mind over the years why there is such a puzzle around reaching high levels of success and achievement. Myself included. Bob replied with “well, the answer to that is pretty obvious. We were not taught anything about ourselves” and he went right back to how we were never taught how to live beyond our five senses, and most of us haven't fully developed the six faculties of our mind that we went into on EP 294[vi]  and he said that we let the outside world control us. That rang true to me. It's a rare individual who moves forward, towards their goals, past the many obstacles they face. Something always seems to get in the way, and delay progress, but those who achieve these high levels of success, have become masters at moving forward, despite what they face. Sage Tip #1: If we want to improve our RESULTS, we are going to have to narrow in on the six faculties of our mind (our reason, intuition, perception, will, memory and imagination). You can review the 6 faculties on EP 294[vii] where we covered each faculty, with examples on how to develop them. We could spend years working on each faculty, to really sharpen the saw. I remember when I first found a book on how to develop my intuition (one of the 6 faculties of the mind). It was my early days of living in the US (after moving from Toronto to Arizona in 2001, sometime after September 11th had happened) and I was cleaning someone's house (after the work I was doing in the seminar industry came to a fast halt without the ability for people to travel by air) I found work that brought me more money than I imagined possible. It was a humbling time, that's for sure.  I noticed this book on a book shelf and asked the owner if I could read her book, and bring it back when I returned. I remember she looked at me and said “keep it!” and took it off her book shelf. I must have given that book to someone else to read, (following her example) but I still have the next one I bought after that, called Developing Intuition by Shakti Gawain.[viii] Take your time learning these six intellectual factors. Each one, will serve you well once you learn how to use them, and developing these faculties would be one of the main differentiators that Bob mentioned separated those who achieved their goals, from those who did not. The biggest lesson I learned from diving into my intuitive factor (from reading these books) was learning to trust myself with the insights that would flash on the screen of my mind, (as learned from The Silva Method EP 261),[ix] or listening to my body with what neuroscience calls interoception and finally, applying this intuition to my work life, something that 20 years ago, was not a concept ever spoken about in our corporate workplaces. I'll never forget when Greg Link, who took the 7 Habits Book to great heights with the Covey Organization, mentioned this book on Intuition, on EP 207[x] on “Unleashing Greatness with Neuroscience, Trust and the 7 Habits.” If Gawain's book on Intuition was on Greg Link's book shelf, I think that's enough to say it comes highly recommended. To sharpen your saw on these higher faculties, go back and review EP 274, and make it a mission to work on one faculty at a time, until you are using each one, effectively, in your daily life. This will be time well spent. VIDEO 2 Watch by Clicking Here Click on the link in the show notes to watch video clip 2. ✔ Sage Advice Tip #2: In this clip we learned that “Goals are set not to get, they are set to grow. And sometimes if the goals don't work, that's ok. As long as you keep going, and growing. The main thing is that you keep growing, and become more of what you are designed to become. We have to keep doing greater good, and expand on what we are doing.” Then he went back to Thomas Troward's quote that we covered last week, saying that “spirit is always for expansion and fuller expression” which explains that we will want to do bigger and better things all the time. To do this, he says, “we will need help, because specialized knowledge is so important.” Keep Growing There is a lot to think about with this tip. How do you keep growing? I think the answer to this is to keep studying and learning about yourself. I sometimes hear my kids say they want to do something (can we go to the mall) because they are bored, and I think, “why not read a book” and take your mind on a trip inside the pages of a book. I want to hand them Shakti Gawain's book on Developing Intuition and tell them to come back to me in a year and tell me what they have learned, but in order to study and do the work needed, it has to come from within each person. You'll agree with me if you have ever tried to force someone to read a book that you are enjoying. It's much easier to transfer knowledge to others just by living by example. Do your own work. Keep studying, learning, growing, and when asked what you are reading, share what you are doing. You won't be surprised when others come back and tell you that they have bought the book you are reading, and share with you what they have learned. Learning is contagious, but it must come from within each person, when they are ready. Specialized Knowledge We covered the importance of this topic on PART 3 of our Review of Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich book back on EP 193[xi] as this book has a whole chapter dedicated to Specialized Knowledge. Just to review, and further hone in on what it is that we want, chapter 5 of Hill's book reminds us that an understanding of specialized knowledge will separate you from everyone else, making you special with the knowledge you have acquired. In chapter 5 Hill teaches us that knowledge (general or specialized) must be “organized and intelligently directed” (CH 5, page 79, TAGR) “and is only potential power. It becomes power only when, and if it is organized into definite plans of action and directed to a definite end.” While we are working on whatever it is that we want, and we are studying and learning, and growing as a result of this, we now add the understanding of asking others who have knowledge that we need (specialized knowledge) that we will take, organize it, and use it in pursuit of whatever it is we are working on. REVIEW and CONCLUSION To wrap up this week's Episode 367—where we revisited two powerful clips from Episode 66, our interview with Bob Proctor—we explored: Sage Tip #1: In the first clip we learned that “If we want to improve our RESULTS, we must focus on the six faculties of our mind—reason, intuition, perception, will, memory, and imagination.” The key is to choose one of these faculties and dedicate time to studying and applying it until you see real results from your deeper understanding. You could even spend an entire year on just one faculty, and it would be time well invested. Sage Tip #2: In the second clip we learned that “Goals are not set to get; they are set to grow.” Sometimes goals don't unfold the way we expect, and that's okay—as long as we keep moving forward and growing. To do this, we must keep studying, learning about ourselves, clarifying what we truly want, and seeking specialized knowledge in our field from those who have gone before us. I hope that these tips that I wanted to revisit have helped you to continue to sharpen your saw, and bring you closer to whatever it is that you are working on this year. What I'm learning is that there isn't an end to this process. We will always seek “fuller and greater expression” and to dedicate time to studying and learning about ourselves, we separating ourselves from those who struggle to reach their goals, to the ones who attain them, and then reach out to help others do the same. With that thought, we will close out this episode and I'll see you next week, for PART 3 of our review of EP 66.

Every believer will endure fiery trials. It is not if, but when. The story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego teaches us how to navigate the difficulties of life. That even with personal struggles, challenges, or even persecution God is always present with us. We must remain faithful and trust God above the circumstances, even when the pressure tries to seduce us into compromising and bowing to the fire. Our outcome will not only be deliverance but lessons in endurance through the fire. Our unwavering faith during adversity serves as our testimony to the power and presence of a God who never leaves His people.

 When the incidents and accidents of life in this fallen world leave us bent over, today's message reminds us there is always hope in Jesus. There is no earthly power or might more able than the strong hand and compassionate heart of Christ our King. Though time may have caused us to settle for a less than existence, this word reminds us that despite religion's expectation, Jesus sees us, He frees us, and releases us to give Glory to His Name!
