Could you use more peace in your life? For Advent, we're looking at the Abrahamic Covenant of Promise. Last week we introduced this covenant and looked at the Hope of the Promise. This week on the Advent calendar is about Peace, and we're dwelling specifically on the promise of land. Through this conversation, we see a sort of formula emerge: meditation on God's provision plus meditation on what is eternal brings peace. We can remember this with three Ps: Provision, Permanence, and Peace. Thank you for joining us - father-daughter duo Marcus Warner and Stephanie Warner - on the trail to a deeper walk with God!

Jeff Feinstein joins host Brandon Sedloff on The Distribution for a deep dive into the evolution and future of opportunity zone investing. The conversation traces Jeff's path from a decades-long career in technology to building Pinnacle Partners, a firm dedicated exclusively to opportunity zone development. Jeff explains how tax policy shaped his investing journey, why OZ legislation has become a powerful tool for individual investors, and how Pinnacle structures institutional-quality multifamily and build-to-rent projects across thousands of eligible zones. Throughout the discussion, he highlights the mechanics, benefits, risks, and real-world execution behind ground-up OZ development. They discuss: • Jeff's transition from tech operator to real estate fund manager and OZ pioneer • How opportunity zones were created, how they work, and what changed under OZ 2.0 • Why Pinnacle focuses on institutional underwriting, JV partnerships, and multi-asset funds • The role of RIAs, family offices, and private wealth in OZ distribution • What makes a strong or weak development partner in OZ projects • Key risks, real estate fundamentals, and why policy permanence matters • Markets and asset types Pinnacle favors, including workforce housing, BTR, and rural zones Links: Pinnacle Partners - https://pinnacleoz.com/ Jeff on Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jefffeinstein/ Brandon on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/bsedloff/ Juniper Square - https://www.junipersquare.com/ Topics: (00:00:00) - Intro (00:02:48) - Jeff's career and background (00:08:30) - The role of tax policy in investing (00:11:09) - The launch of Pinnacle Partners (00:13:51) - The evolution of opportunity zones (00:17:07) - How opportunity zones are created (00:20:20) - Pinnacle Partners' strategy and success (00:23:37) - Pinnacle Partners' approach to development (00:25:19) - Capital strategy and fund structure (00:26:46) - Who benefits from opportunity zones?

Theme: Covenant Renewal and the Danger of Compromise Pastor Matthew continued the Joshua series, focusing on Joshua chapters 9 and 10—the story of the Gibeonite deception and Israel's response. The message explored how deception, presumption, and failure to seek God's direction lead to spiritual compromise, but also how God's mercy and power still prevail through covenant faithfulness. The Gibeonite Deception (Joshua 9) After the miraculous victories at Jericho and Ai, news spread throughout Canaan about Israel's power under God's command. While other kings prepared for war, the Gibeonites chose deception: they disguised themselves as distant travelers, wearing old clothes and carrying moldy bread to make Israel believe they came from far away. “The devil doesn't always come at you head-on. Sometimes he comes dressed as something harmless, familiar, or even friendly.” Israel's leaders failed to consult the Lord before making a covenant with them. “They examined the evidence but didn't pray. That's where the failure happened.” Lesson: “Not everything that looks right is right. When you stop seeking God's counsel, you open yourself up to deception.” The Power and Permanence of Covenant Once the truth was revealed—that the Gibeonites were local inhabitants—Israel wanted to destroy them, but Joshua refused, because they had sworn an oath before the Lord. “You don't break covenant just because it's inconvenient. When you give your word before God, He expects you to honor it.” Joshua made the Gibeonites servants in the house of God, cutting wood and drawing water for the altar. “Even in discipline, God gives a place of grace. The Gibeonites ended up serving in the temple—better to be a servant in God's house than a warrior outside of it.” Application: Keep your word, integrity matters. God honors covenant even when we fail to discern perfectly. His mercy can redeem our mistakes and bring them into His purpose. Spiritual Warning — The Cost of Presumption Pastor reminded that Israel's misstep came not from rebellion but assumption: “They assumed they knew what to do because it looked obvious. But assumption is the enemy of revelation.” He linked this to modern believers: People presume God's approval because of success or blessing. Churches presume direction because of tradition. “We don't pray about things anymore because we think we already know the answer. That's dangerous ground.” Joshua 10 — When the Enemy Attacks Your Covenant Five Amorite kings formed an alliance to destroy Gibeon for aligning with Israel. The Gibeonites cried out to Joshua for help—and Joshua honored the covenant, marching all night from Gilgal to defend them. “When you make covenant before God, He'll expect you to keep it even when it costs you sleep, comfort, or convenience.” God honored Joshua's obedience with supernatural victory: The enemy was thrown into confusion. Large hailstones fell from heaven, killing more than the sword. The sun stood still over Gibeon as Joshua prayed for extended daylight. “When you honor covenant, God honors you. Heaven will move time itself to fulfill His word through a faithful servant.” The Sun Stands Still — God's Power in Partnership Pastor emphasized that God didn't act until Joshua spoke in faith: “The miracle didn't happen until Joshua opened his mouth. Faith is voice-activated.” This battle revealed divine partnership—God works through people who trust His covenant and speak His promises. “God didn't tell Joshua to pray for the sun to stand still—he just believed big enough to ask. That's faith that moves creation.” Application: Don't wait for the perfect conditions to believe in miracles. When you walk in covenant obedience, heaven backs your faith. God Finishes What He Starts Joshua captured the five kings and had them brought before Israel. He instructed his commanders to place their feet on the necks of the defeated kings. “That's a picture of what Christ does through us. He lets us stand in His victory.” Pastor tied this to Romans 16:20: “The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet.” Spiritual Principle: “God gives you victory not just to end a battle—but to establish dominion. When you stand in covenant authority, the enemy is beneath your feet.” Closing Reflections Never stop seeking God's direction, even after victories. Keep covenant—your word matters to heaven. Faith speaks boldly—God moves through the believing voice. Victory comes through obedience, not shortcuts. Don't mistake mercy for approval—learn from Gibeon's deception but walk in Joshua's faith. Bro. Matthew concluded with a call to vigilance and worship: “We're living in days of deception. Don't trust what looks right—trust what God says. Stay prayed up, stay in the Word, and you'll see the sun stand still in your life too.”

How Thin Is the Line Between Patriotism and Nationalism? Curtis Chang and David French take a hard look at the rise of Christian nationalism and its growing influence on American faith and politics. They unpack how this ideology blurs the line between patriotism and nationalism, reshaping evangelical identity and challenging both biblical and constitutional values. Drawing from history and theology—from January 6th to modern evangelical movements—they reveal how love of country can be redeemed from the distortions of fear and power. Listeners are invited to reflect on what true patriotism looks like for followers of Jesus in a divided America.

Today's sermon explored the foundational truths of marriage through the lens of Ephesians 5:31 and the Genesis creation account. Using the metaphor of marriage as a garden, we examined how agape love—selfless, sacrificial love—is only possible through the Holy Spirit, not by human effort. The “soil” of marriage, as described in Genesis, is not perfect but good, and it is in this soil that God calls us to subdue sin and grow in sanctification. The sermon highlighted how the fall introduced shame, blame, and conflict into marriage, transforming it from a place of vulnerability and safety into a battleground for sanctification. Ultimately, marriage is not about achieving happiness or perfection, but about God using our spouse to shape us into the likeness of Christ, with prayer and humility as essential tools for this journey.

Even the “I ♥ My Marriage” t-shirt doesn't mean much when actions contradict the message. That's the challenge 1 Corinthians 13:8–13 addresses: love isn't just powerful—it's permanent.
Hey there, hero!Permanence. Import. Outcomes. Results.We make lots of decisions, and we talk a lot about the size of those small, medium and large decisions - but another way of looking at them is…permanence.The long lasting results of all those decisions, if any. The effectiveness of a decision that makes for real change.But instead of size, what about potency? What about import? What about the long-term permanence of your decisions?I found a really awesome way of looking at the effect of a decision that has a different vector than simply its size - and it speaks to how hard some decisions are to retreat from if they just don't work out.Hat, haircut and tattoo.Do you ever consider the finality, the permanence of your decisions?

A Sermon by Rev. Douglas Ahamefula and Elder Brenard Rowe, Elders at Victory Church in Providence, RI. Opening Tribute and Introduction Reference to Biblical principle: "The seed we sow is the seed we reap." Honoring Bernard for 32 years of service to the church, emphasizing long-term commitment and various roles in ministry (especially choir/music). Mention of Bernard's wife, Fanny, who has passed away. Note of Bernard's journey to the church and his active, faithful involvement. Bernard's Acknowledgments Bernard expresses gratitude to Senior Pastor Richard and Pastor Lisa. Occasion: 36th church anniversary, international service. Bernard humbly accepts the opportunity to speak and share the good news of Jesus Christ. Theme: The Power and Nature of God's Love Encouragement to reflect on the strongest force in the universe: love, specifically the love of God. God's love described as eternal, unchanging, and foundational. Focus on unconditional (agape) love, not romantic or materialistic love. Illustrated Stories and Examples Story of a village fire: neighbors show overwhelming love and support to a woman who lost everything. Love stronger than the devastation caused by the fire. International service: church as a community of 26 nations, demonstrating God's love through unity and cultural celebration. Biblical Foundations of Love Biblical description of love (1 Corinthians 13:4-8, paraphrased): Love is patient, kind, not envious or boastful, not proud. Does not dishonor, is not self-seeking or easily angered. Keeps no record of wrongs, rejoices in truth, always protects, trusts, hopes, perseveres, never fails. Call to consistently demonstrate these biblical attributes of love. The Greatest Demonstration: Jesus Christ and the Cross Reference to John 3:16: God's gift of his only son as act of unconditional love. Example of Christ's sacrifice—pleading for forgiveness, promise to the thief: “You will be with me in paradise.” Analogy: judge takes punishment upon himself—parallels Jesus' sacrifice for humanity. Command to Love One Another Quote of John 13:34-35: “A new commandment I give you, love one another…” Must demonstrate love for others; cannot claim love for God while hating others. Forgiveness and Restoration Parable of the prodigal son: father's unconditional love and forgiveness; call to emulate this. Romans 5:8: God's love demonstrated while we were still sinners. Sacrificial Love in Practice Example: missionaries risking life for the gospel—sacrificial love. No one can outgive God; God's gifts surpass all. God's Love in Creation and Deliverance Genesis 1:31: God declares his creation “very good” as a sign of his love. God's deliverance in biblical history: freeing Israel from Egypt, crossing the Red Sea. Love like a shepherd rescuing a lost sheep. The Permanence of God's Love Romans 8:38-39: nothing can separate us from God's love. God's love is likened to a lighthouse—guiding through storms. Call to Action and Conclusion God's love is the greatest gift, endures forever, accessible to all. Challenge to receive and share this love unconditionally: “Love is like a candle, it doesn't lose light by lighting another.” Call for unity and acts of love among church community. Closing prayer of thanksgiving, blessing, and request to show sacrificial love.
In this episode, I respond to a listener question about how to handle situations where children want their creations or work in the playroom to remain untouched between sessions. Whether it's a LEGO build, a coloring page, or a carefully constructed scene, children often seek a sense of permanence and control. I walk through how to stay adherent to the CCPT model while addressing those needs with clarity, neutrality, and empathy. I share the importance of setting factual expectations, reflecting needs and emotions without overstepping into agenda-driven responses, and avoiding limits where they aren't necessary. This episode covers not only the clinical “how,” but the philosophical “why” behind these decisions—reminding us that our role is to allow children to process, feel, and grow, not to rescue them from discomfort.

Matthew 5:31-32 / Pastor Christian Simas
Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Thank you for joining me today and following us throughout Project 23. If you would like to learn more about this project, click the link to discover more and partner with us. Our text today is Mark 13:1-2: And as he came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Look, Teacher, what wonderful stones and what wonderful buildings!” And Jesus said to him, “Do you see these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.” — Mark 13:1-2 The disciples were stunned by the glory of the temple. And rightly so. It was massive. Breathtaking. Some stones weighed over 500 tons. It dominated the Jerusalem skyline. And to the Jewish people, it wasn't just beautiful, it was sacred. It housed God's presence, their heritage, and their national identity. So when one disciple turns to Jesus and says, “Look at these stones!” He's marveling at a structure he believed would last forever. But Jesus responds with an upsetting declaration and prophecy: “Not one stone will be left on another.” In other words: "Don't get too attached to this building and its stones." Jesus was never impressed by architecture or religious infrastructure. He saw through the facade to the corruption, pride, and misplaced worship inside. And he knew it was all temporary. Forty years later, in A.D. 70, the Roman army would destroy the temple—stone by stone—just as Jesus said. We still marvel at impressive things. I do. Impressive buildings, homes, and cars. I love to look at them. But even the most beautiful, durable, and influential things in this world can, and will, crumble. Our homes. Our careers. Our churches. Our bank accounts. Our platforms. If your hope is built on what appears impressive, be prepared to have your hope dashed, as it will ultimately collapse. And that's not prophetic, it's just the truth. But this does not mean we should not appreciate beauty or build meaningful things. Jesus is reminding us not to confuse the temporary with the eternal. So don't be fooled by the size of the stones. Fix your eyes on the Cornerstone, the One who cannot be shaken. #FirmFoundation, #Mark13, #EternalPerspective ASK THIS: What made the temple so significant to the disciples? Why does Jesus predict its destruction so bluntly? What “stones” are you trusting in today that may not last? How can you live more focused on the eternal this week? DO THIS: Identify one earthly thing you've been placing too much trust in. Name it, then ask God to shift your focus back to what's eternal. PRAY THIS: Lord, I'm tempted to be impressed by what won't last. Help me trust in what's eternal. Anchor my life in what cannot be shaken. Amen. PLAY THIS: “Firm Foundation.”
On today's show, Alex and Calvin continue their series on “AI” and public discourse, focusing this time on the increasing proliferation of AI applications in government writing, policy, and social media. We characterize the second Trump administration as the "first totally post-AI presidency," which has adopted the "dumbest, most unreflective, most uncritical approach" to AI's use in communication, research, and analysis. Throughout the show, we emphasize how AI technologies are themselves rhetorical artifacts at the same time as they so often produce “bad” rhetoric, reflecting the intentions, values, and presuppositions of their creators, as well as the inherent biases of their training data and text generation models. This often results in an entry-level, overly dense writing style - often referred to as "slop" - which is almost written not to be read, but rather to fill space.We explore several concerning examples of AI's uncritical adoption by the secondTrump administration and their acolytes in the tech world. Early executive orders exhibited AI-generated formatting errors and formulaic, generic language, demonstrating a context-blind style that could lead to legal problems and erode public trust. Furthermore, the "MAHA Report" from the Office of Health and Human Services was found to fabricate studies and misrepresent findings, reflecting how large language models are "sycophantic," and can reinforce existing (often false) beliefs. Our discussion also covers Palantir's "Foundry" product, which aims to combine diverse government datasets, raising significant privacy and political concerns, especially given the political leanings of Palantir's founders. Finally, we examine xAI's Grok chatbot (run by Elon Musk), which illustrates how tech elites can exert incredible political power through direct interventions in AI tools' system prompts - which in recent months has led Grok to parrot conspiracy theories and make explicit antisemitic remarks on the public feeds of X/Twitter.Ultimately, our analyses emphasizes - once again - that these so-called “AI” technologies are not neutral; they are, in the words of Matteo Pasquinelli, "crystallization[s] of a productive social process" that "reinforce the power structure that underlies [them]," perpetuating existing inequalities. Understanding these mechanisms and engaging in what Pasquinelli terms "de-connectionism" - undoing the social and economic fabric constituting these systems - is essential for critiquing the structural factors and power dynamics that AI reproduces in public discourse.Have any questions or concerns about this episode?

The Paychex Business Series Podcast with Gene Marks - Coronavirus
With the tax and spending bill now law, there is much the government needs to do to implement the changes that include many tax deduction carryovers made permanent from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. Gene Marks offers his take, noting businesses should prepare to take advantage of changes to bonus depreciation and research and development – both now returned to 100%. Business owners will have a cap increase of $2 that will be tax exempt on their estates. Plus, employers should plan for changes to the taxes on overtime and tips for eligible employees.

C.S. Lewis once wrote, “If I find in myself desires, which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is I was made for another world.” Ryan Ingram explains why everyone has a longing and restlessness for something more. Join him in Genesis chapter 2 as he describes the perfect environment God created for Adam and Eve and why, since sin entered the world, our hearts ache to be reunited with our Creator.Main PointsWhat do I do about the ache within me?

LW1459 - Permanence Is Not a Property of the Medium All of us who are serious about photographic prints have been trained to care enough about our images to process them to the highest archival standards. The premise behind this is that the longevity of our work lies in the permanence of the medium. But is that true? Books are perhaps one of the most substantial ways that we can share our work, but books disappear. Maybe the key to longevity is not the medium but rather the content, relevance, and emotional impact of our work.
