Ash also supports you in connecting with loved ones with mediumship readings, guiding you in transforming your grief into even deeper wells of meaning and aliveness. This work of walking with grief and death found Ash after being diagnosed and hospitalized with a chronic illness called Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome. It was in their most challenging days and scariest moments where death was close---that Ash realized what it was they would offer to this world. "It was when I began to face my own death from my long term chronic illness that I was initiated in the astral plane by my grandmother Ida Canty, who was in spirit. She told me I would be supporting others in the physical world, lessening their fear of death and being a bridge of communication from the spirit realm to this physical realm." Certified as a death care provider through Alua Arthur's Going With Grace program, Ash's hope and prayer is to bring about healing from the other side and a profound peace regarding life after death. https://www.thesovereignspiritmedium.com/

Understanding Spiritual Warfare and Discipleship with Shodankeh Johnson In this insightful talk, Shodankeh Johnson, an experienced church planter and disciple maker from Sierra Leone, shares his journey and challenges in advancing the Kingdom of God. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing spiritual warfare, using the Word of God, prayer, and love to overcome obstacles and make disciples. Shodankeh recounts personal stories of facing threats, persecution, and miraculous transformations, illustrating the reality of spiritual battles and the power of faith. Join us to learn about the critical aspects of spiritual warfare, the nature of the enemy, and how to stand firm as a disciple maker. https://reallifetheologypodcast.supercast.com/  Key Takeaways  00:00 Introduction and Gratitude 01:36 Personal Background and Ministry 03:50 Understanding Spiritual Warfare 06:19 The Reality of Spiritual Warfare 11:22 Stories of Faith and Transformation 15:30 Critical Insights on Spiritual Warfare 24:38 Divine Weapons and Love in Action 32:26 The Armor of God: Spiritual Warfare Essentials 35:22 Faith and Perseverance in Adversity 37:01 Facing Persecution with Courage 42:05 Understanding Satan's Tactics 54:22 Identifying and Overcoming Strongholds 58:32 The Power of the Word and Prayer 01:01:40 Conclusion and Final Thoughts This episode opens with Shodankeh Johnson thanking the audience and leading a prayer, inviting God's presence and wisdom. He briefly introduces himself, sharing his background in disciple-making and church planting across the globe—especially in Sierra Leone, where he's seen God move in powerful ways, even in dangerous situations. Coming from a Creole father and a Muslim Shabro mother, Shodanke brings a deeply personal and cross-cultural perspective to his mission. The heart of the conversation centers on spiritual warfare. Shodanke stresses that spiritual warfare is real and unavoidable—like gravity, it's in effect whether we acknowledge it or not. He's witnessed the influence of darkness across cultures and emphasizes the need to preach the Word boldly and make disciples who are grounded in truth and equipped for battle. He invites the audience to share what comes to mind when they think of spiritual warfare—responses include prayer, fasting, and confronting evil. From there, he unpacks the spiritual conflict believers face: an invisible but fierce battle between the Kingdom of God and the forces of darkness, aimed at disrupting our relationship with Christ and stopping the spread of the Gospel. Quoting Ephesians 6:12, Shodankeh shares stories of personal threats, persecution, and near-death experiences—yet also moments of miraculous transformation, where former enemies of the faith became devoted followers of Jesus. These testimonies highlight God's power and the impact of responding with love and prayer. He outlines four truths every disciple-maker must grasp about spiritual warfare: You are in a war. The fight is spiritual, not physical. God provides powerful, non-carnal weapons. You must put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:13–18). Shodankeh also breaks down Satan's tactics—affliction, accusation, and destruction—designed to weaken believers and distract them from their mission (John 10:10, Revelation 12:10). He describes three types of spiritual strongholds: He concludes by encouraging listeners to tear down these strongholds through Scripture, the Holy Spirit, and disciplined prayer and fasting (2 Corinthians 10:5). The battle may be spiritual, but God's power is real and available to all who seek Him.

He emphasizes the importance of education in ACL rehabilitation. The type of graft used in ACL surgery significantly affects recovery. Early intervention in rehabilitation can lead to better outcomes. Managing swelling is crucial for effective recovery post-surgery. Different graft types have unique healing timelines and considerations. Patient education is key to understanding the rehabilitation process. The strength of the graft can vary significantly based on the type used. Rehabilitation strategies should be tailored to the individual athlete. Understanding the risks and timelines of recovery can help prevent re-injury. The quality of physical therapy coaching is crucial for recovery. Limb symmetry index should be at least 90% for strength. Plyometrics should be introduced gradually in rehabilitation. Deceleration training is essential for athletes returning to sport. Many physical therapists lack knowledge in plyometric training. Re-injury rates for ACL injuries are alarmingly high. Education on plyometrics is lacking in physical therapy schools. Collaboration between therapists and strength coaches is vital. Athletes often shy away from loading their knees post-injury. Understanding knee and hip strategies can improve rehabilitation outcomes.

Sign up for our newsletter: https://renew.org/resources/newsletter-sign-up/  Creating a Culture of Discipleship: Insights from The Crossings Church In this episode, Kerry shares a detailed journey about fostering a culture of discipleship at The Crossings Church. Beginning with a prayer, he outlines his family's history in church planting, the growth of The Crossings Church since 2004, and their unique approach to making disciples. Discussing the importance of repentance, baptism, and the relational component in discipling, he emphasizes the need for leaders to model these practices. The video includes insights into their structured Bible study process, small group dynamics, and intentional church practices. Practical advice is given for churches seeking to emulate this model and address doctrinal adherence and growth challenges. https://reallifetheologypodcast.supercast.com/  Key Takeaways  00:00 Opening Prayer and Introduction 00:49 Personal Background and Church Planting Journey 01:55 Growth and Challenges at The Crossings Church 04:03 Cultural Shifts in the Restoration Movement 10:31 The Importance of Relational Discipleship 18:07 Teaching Repentance and Baptism 19:26 Bible Study Practices at The Crossings 30:01 Training New Disciples 31:57 The Importance of Repentance 33:43 Understanding Baptism 34:34 Challenges in Discipleship 38:07 Addressing Doctrinal Differences 45:09 Small Group Dynamics 47:54 Maintaining Church Culture 58:17 Concluding Thoughts "Farming vs. Factory Work in Ministry" In this episode, Kerry Cox shares lessons from his ministry journey, focusing on church planting, discipleship, and creating a culture of genuine spiritual growth. He opens with a prayer, setting the tone for a conversation centered on God's guidance and the power of community. Kerry reflects on his early exposure to church life, shaped by his parents starting a home church when they grew disillusioned with traditional ones. From a young age, he witnessed how the unchurched came to faith and became disciple-makers themselves—a foundation that shaped his approach to ministry. In 2004, Kerry and about 30 others moved west of St. Louis to plant Crossings Church. Over the next 20 years, it grew to around 650 members, especially connecting with youth and people new to church. Crossings stood out from typical Churches of Christ by building a culture that prioritized relationships, authenticity, and active discipleship. A key theme Kerry emphasizes is the need to move beyond a baptism-centered model to one that fully integrates faith, repentance, and ongoing discipleship. He challenges the tendency in some Restoration Movement churches to treat baptism as the end goal, arguing instead for a holistic, relational approach to spiritual growth. Throughout the episode, Kerry shares stories that bring this vision to life—like the high schooler who brought his troubled brother, TC, to church. Though TC's commitment was doubted at first, he went on to help lead their first church plant. Stories like this underscore the power of relational ministry and long-term investment in people. Kerry also breaks down how Crossings Church puts these values into practice. Every member joins a small group and engages in a foundational Bible study process that covers topics from seeking God to discipleship and baptism. Leaders are trained to model this lifestyle, creating a culture where disciple-making starts at the top and flows through the entire church. He answers audience questions on how to integrate new believers, tailor small groups, and avoid turning church into a checklist of activities. His central point: everything the church does should point back to its mission—making real, multiplying disciples. Kerry wraps up by urging churches to shift their culture—away from routine, and toward deep, intentional, Spirit-led relationships. His insights, drawn from years of hands-on ministry, offer a practical and inspiring roadmap for building vibrant, disciple-making communities.

Watch this episode on YouTube.Ross Geiger is Co-Founder & President at Ciro, a YC-backed tech startup. His LinkedIn says he is “On a journey to understand & elevate the craft of Sales.” And he participated in the 2024 Soulful Impact Vision Quest.If that combination makes you raise an eyebrow, you're not alone. Ross is a unique and deeply multifaceted individual. Which is part of why I was so excited to invite him onto the show.Through guiding Ross on his quest, I got to witness his incredible depth. I had the opportunity to walk beside him as he did a very scary and courageous thing. He stepped away from a very full life to spend several days alone in the wilderness with no food. He ceremonially released the control of his ego so that he could dive deeper within himself than ever before and connect with the truth at the center of his calling.The result was profound. I'm incredibly grateful to Ross for his willingness to share some of that experience with you directly through this episode.A core theme we explore in this conversation is how the setting and structure of the quest supported Ross in putting his ego aside, how this enabled a realization of his innate worthiness, and how that spark opened the door for his soul to speak.We also explore what integration has been like for him so far, what's alive for him now in this next layer of his journey, and how he's finding deep soulful alignment without needing to make major shake-ups to the external realities of his life (which is something people often expect to happen after a vision quest).In this way, Ross' story is a powerful example of how it's really the internal shift that counts. When we consciously live and act from a place of soul, we are guided to make soulful impact in beautiful and unexpected ways.Enjoy!Links & Resources* Connect with Brooks on Instagram or LinkedIn* Soulful Impact: soulfulimpact.co* Connect with Ross on LinkedIn* Check out Ross' company, CiroChapters00:03:28 Introduction and Journey Overview00:06:24 Personal Background and Call to the Quest00:09:30 Preparation for the Vision Quest00:12:31 Experiencing the Quest: Inner Work and Transformation00:15:22 The Role of Nature and Wilderness in Healing00:18:40 Insights Gained from the Quest00:21:28 The Importance of Authenticity and Self-Expression00:24:15 Messages from the Soul and Personal Craft00:27:21 Reflections on the Quest Experience00:30:32 Future Directions00:44:01 Believing You're Enough00:46:06 The Journey of Self-Discovery00:51:50 Nature as a Teacher00:53:43 Understanding Our Place in Nature00:59:51 The Power of Asking for Support01:04:51 Embodying Soul in Leadership01:10:36 The Importance of Personal Transformation01:14:40 Integration After the Quest01:20:33 Advice for Future Questers—Get newsletter updates & future episodes delivered to your inbox: Subscribe to Soulful Impact on Substack Get full access to Soulful Impact at www.soulfulimpact.blog/subscribe

That exposure to peer evangelism started them on a journey with Josiah Venture to share Christ with the youth of Central & Eastern Europe. In 2002, they served as summer interns in Czech before marrying in January 2003. For the next three consecutive years, Ben and Kristy led short-term high school teams from southern New Jersey to the Czech Republic for camp ministry. During these summer trips, they felt God calling them into full-time missions. Josiah Venture suggested that they help launch a new team in Ukraine, and in January 2007, they moved there. After serving as camp directors and in a local youth group for several years, they began leading the Josiah Venture Ukraine team, Epokha, in 2011.

Happy New Year! I'm incredibly excited for you to hear this latest episode with Andy Tanner. Andy is known for his unique insights into investments and financial education. In this episode, we explored many valuable topics, from the origins of the 401k to the importance of financial education for families and the role of asset ownership in today's technological world. Andy also shared his personal journey, including his and his wife's survivorship over cancer, which has deeply influenced his approach to life and teaching.Introduction to Andy Tanner and His WorkAndy Tanner, a well-respected author and financial educator, recently updated his book "Form of Chaos." He is also known for his association with the Rich Dad, Poor Dad team, having spent 14 years traveling and learning with them. Andy's insights are shaped by his extensive experience in financial markets and education.The History and Evolution of the 401kThe 401k began not as a planned retirement strategy but as a loophole for wealthy executives to defer income. Richard Stanger wrote the original 800-word section, spurred by lobbying from companies like Kodak and Xerox through Congressman Barbara Conable. Initially, the financial impact of 401ks seemed minimal, but today, they account for $11 trillion. Andy highlighted that Congressman Conable was unaware of the significance of the 401k when it was enacted. Consultant Ted Benna later capitalized on the 401k for employee bonuses, which led to employer matching and the shift from pensions to 401k plans.Critique of 401ks and Wall StreetAndy criticized 401ks as favoring Wall Street due to the compounding costs that benefit the financial industry more than the participants. He urged listeners to examine the real value of their 401k plans and warned of hidden drawbacks. Financial education and understanding are crucial to make informed decisions rather than relying blindly on such systems.Personal Background and Family LifeAndy shared his personal journey, including a significant experience when his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer three years ago. Thankfully, they are doing well now, and this period kept Andy at home more, focusing on teaching from his home studio and spending time with his family. Both he and his wife are cancer survivors, influencing their decision to start a family later in life.Financial Education for KidsAndy believes in integrating financial education into family life. His children have benefited significantly from being homeschooled, especially during COVID. This homeschooling emphasized vital financial skills from a young age. Andy uses practical experiences and games like the "Cashflow" game to teach his kids about financial concepts.Investment PhilosophyAndy advocates for business owners to leverage their profits by investing in assets to expand ownership. Owning assets is crucial in a world increasingly dominated by technology and AI. Andy recommends benefiting from AI advancements by owning stocks in various sectors beyond just tech. He values operational cash flow over mere price speculation, aligning with Warren Buffett's investment principles. True compounding requires reinvesting profits, similar to business and real estate ventures. Andy views stocks as ownership in a business, stressing the importance of sustainable growth.Real-World Exposure and Financial Activities with FamilyAndy involves his children in financial activities from a young age. He shared how real-world exposure, like bringing his kids to real estate dealings and letting them invest small amounts in family ventures, helps them understand ownership. Andy talked about the concept of "sponsorship equity," stressing the role of financial education and involvement in tangible activities like stock trading and buying tangible assets like silver.The Role of AI in InvestingJoe mentioned...

Owl Have You Know is pleased to welcome Twice-Rice grad Will Eldridge – a consultant at Bain & Company and the president-elect of the Rice Business Alumni Association Board.Will earned his Bachelor of Science in Civil & Environmental Engineering at Rice in 2017. But after an unforgettable experience in MAcc program director Ben Lansford's class, he decided to pivot to accounting. Will went on to work at Deloitte as a senior auditor for oil and gas clients, before deciding to go back to school again for his MBA at Chicago Booth.Will chats with Owl Have You Know guest host Brian Jackson '21 about his path from accounting to strategy consulting, the importance of mentorship, and why board service has given him a way to give back to his community in fulfilling ways.Episode Guide:00:53 Will's Favorite Career Pivot02:00 Impact of Ben Lansford03:22 Choosing Rice and Career Path05:05 Experience at Deloitte08:11 Transition to Consulting09:46 Volunteering and Alumni Networks15:30 Consulting Challenges and Skills18:10 Personal Background and French Heritage20:39 Commitment to Rice Business23:33 Advice for Future Business Students25:01 Classic Cocktails and ConclusionOwl Have You Know is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:Ben Lansford and MAcc program's impact in Will's journey from engineering to accounting01:48: [Brian Jackson]: Tell me about Ben Lansford. What type of impact did he have on you? Are there any memories from your time in the program that really stick out?01:56: [Will Eldridge]: Yeah, of course. Ben is this amazing dad figure for a lot of us who found our way to the MAcc. I say that because he has these great dad jokes, but he also helps a lot of people find their way and is someone who has made accounting, which gets a bad rap in a lot of circles, you know, the favorite class that some people take. [02:26] And, you know, when they announced bringing this program back to Rice, there were no current or former students to speak to, but Ben Lansford had been hired. And I got coffee with him, I remember, and started talking about the program, the opportunities. And it was just a great connection that I know he's made with a lot of the students going through the program, and he really helped me understand how I could marry my current background with a master's degree in accounting and make that transition despite having not lot of accounting experience yet and gave me that confidence to make the transition.After realizing that accounting wasn't his long-term goal, Will pivoted to strategy consulting.I figured that I loved the client service aspect of the job I was in. I, at some point, figured out the accounting and financial reporting path wasn't what I wanted to do long term, but I wanted to stay in client service. Did some exploring, I actually circled back to the Center for Career Development at Rice, reaching out to them to talk about different paths to explore and spoke to some other alums. Figured out I wanted to go into strategy consulting, so, a bit more of results-oriented work in some ways but keeping that analysis piece that I had learned as an auditor when we're looking at trends. And with that, I figured out the best way to do that would be to go to business school to set myself up for that recruiting process and eventuality.The power of empathy in consulting19:10: [Brian Jackson]: What skills do you really draw upon to buy that credibility with your clients?19:16: [Will Eldridge]: For one, approaching whatever you're presenting to them with a mindset of context reset, you're deep in the details, and it's hard to sometimes pull up and look at the work that you're presenting and remember the limited context that your client might have and how much else they have going on. So, there's definitely a level of empathizing that is really critical. And so, to put yourself in their shoes and think, you know, what are they coming at this from? What do they care about? What do they need to get out of this? And what is the one or two things they should take away from this conversation is a good frame of mind to take.Show Links: TranscriptGuest Profiles:Will Eldridge | Jones Graduate School of Business at Rice University Brian Jackson | Jones Graduate School of Business at Rice University Listen to The Sky Is Not the Limit feat.

Hosted by Meny Hoffman, this episode revisits Yanki's remarkable journey from encountering challenges in obtaining SBA loans to successfully facilitating over $600 million in real estate transactions. Yanki's dedication to empowering small businesses shines through as he shares his deep expertise on navigating SBA loan programs, particularly the flexible 7A and the asset-driven 504, both crucial tools in real estate financing. Throughout this insightful conversation, Yanki stresses the vital importance of financial literacy for business owners, covering essential topics such as tax returns, cash flow, and the strategic decision-making process of purchasing versus renting property. The episode also incorporates valuable perspectives from financial expert Dave Ramsey and underscores the necessity of maintaining financial clarity through regular accountant consultations. Listeners will be inspired by Yanki's values of hospitality, rooted in his upbringing, and the significant role of generosity and community in building meaningful relationships. Whether you're an experienced entrepreneur or just beginning your journey, this episode is packed with insights and actionable strategies for leveraging real estate to drive business growth and financial stability. Tune in to discover how to master business finance and make strategic real estate decisions that foster financial success.   00:01:34 - Small Business Financing With Janky Markowitz 00:03:31 - Government-Funded SBA Loan Program Overview 00:08:01 - Small Business Financing Options 00:09:20 - Real Estate Financing and SBA Loans 00:12:31 - SBA Lending to Startups 00:21:32 - Educating Business Owners on Risk 00:22:20 - Real Estate Investment vs. Company Ownership 00:26:51 - Strategic Real Estate Growth and Profit 00:27:29 - Real Estate Financing Decision Dilemma 00:31:02 - Real Estate Financing for Business Growth 00:33:22 - Understanding Business Owners Through Numbers 00:36:46 - Optimizing Inventory and Maximizing Profits 00:37:11 - Understanding Numbers and Strategic Business Planning 00:43:47 - People, Process, Product in Business 00:49:02 - Personal Background and Hospitality Values   One of the safest bets is that real estate appreciates over time - almost no matter what. It may take a while before it happens, but if your business can afford to do so, be your own landlord and own your own facility.    Every business owner hopes and expects to grow as quickly as possible. When investing in real estate - or, frankly, anything - keep this in mind so that you don't find yourself with a ten year commitment to a building that you outgrow in half that time.    Make sure to speak to your accountant at least once a quarter, and prepare an interim financial statement for that period. Being ignorant of your actual numbers is one of the biggest mistakes you can make, so avoid the problem by regularly updating your statements and being aware of what those numbers really mean.    If you're a business owner, you can outsource a lot but you can't outsource the fundamental strategy of where the company is going to go, and what goals it has to reach.

It's a long-term skin condition that affects about 1% of people worldwide. While it mainly changes the skin's color, vitiligo can also impact those who have it in many other ways. Living with vitiligo can be challenging, but it also teaches important lessons about strength, self-acceptance, and the value of community. Let's take a look at the basics of vitiligo, including its physical and emotional effects. Tune into this week's podcast as LaTrese Coyt talks about living with vitiligo, the treatments she's tried, and how she found confidence again.
