Podcasts about Perspective

In this episode, Brian Brodersen joins us to share insights from decades of pastoral ministry, biblical exposition, and spiritual discernment. Now serving as pastor emeritus of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, Brian reflects on his transition out of the lead pastor role, and his current ministry leading a Sunday night Bible study through the New Testament - currently in the Book of Acts. This intentional, accessible overview of the New Testament continues to build up believers and equip the next generation with solid biblical foundations.The heart of our conversation focuses on the nation of Israel, biblical prophecy, and current events. Drawing from a dispensational framework without lapsing into speculation, Brian offers careful guidance for preachers navigating one of the most charged and misunderstood topics in Christian ministry today. Whether you're teaching through Ezekiel 38–39, responding to the news cycle, or wondering how to speak about Jerusalem from the pulpit, this episode will offer clarity, conviction, and a call to faithfulness.In the final section, Brian turns our attention to the spiritual realities behind gospel ministry. Drawing on themes from his book The Powers of Darkness & the People of God, he reminds us that the preacher is always a target for satanic opposition. This sobering yet hope-filled word will encourage pastors and Bible teachers to persevere in the face of unseen resistance.Guest Bio – Brian Brodersen:Brian Brodersen is pastor emeritus of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, where he served as senior pastor from 1993 to 2023. He is also president of the Calvary Global Network, chancellor of Calvary Chapel Bible College, and co-founder/director of Creation Fest UK.

“I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and a chasing after wind.” – Ecclesiastes 1:14Life is full of pursuits and ambitions, each one pressing for our attention. Like a collage, the individual pieces may not make sense until we step back and see the bigger picture. Today, we're talking about the gift of perspective—and how viewing our lives through an eternal lens can change everything.Zooming Out with EcclesiastesIf there's one book in the Bible that invites us to zoom out and take an honest look at life, it's Ecclesiastes. It's raw, reflective, and unafraid to ask big questions: What's really worth pursuing? What has lasting value? What are we building—and why?Our new study, Wisdom Over Wealth, explores the book of Ecclesiastes with these questions in mind. It helps us see how financial wisdom fits into the broader story of a life lived for God. I'll tell you how to get your copy in a moment.In our everyday financial lives, it's easy to be consumed by the immediate—this week's bills, that investment opportunity, or the looming tax deadline. Every issue seems urgent. But what if, instead of focusing on just one puzzle piece, we looked at how it fits into the whole? What if we could pull back and see our finances as part of a much bigger story?That's the gift of perspective. It lifts us out of the weeds and helps us see clearly. When we understand how our financial choices connect to our spiritual priorities, we begin making wiser, more intentional decisions.The Danger of Disconnected WealthEcclesiastes invites us to take a mile-high view of not just our money but life itself. The Preacher, on whom this book is based, says he has seen all the works done “under the sun” and found them to be vanity, a chasing after the wind. Not because work or wealth are bad, but because when they become our ultimate goals, they leave us empty.That's a message we need in a culture that constantly tells us to buy more, earn more, and do more. But Ecclesiastes points out that it's all meaningless if disconnected from God's purposes.Wealth as a Tool, Not a GodThis doesn't mean that wealth is meaningless—far from it. When we view money through a biblical lens, we understand that it's not something to be worshiped or hoarded. It's a tool to be used for God's Kingdom purposes. When stewarded wisely, wealth can be used for incredible good: to bless others, to support ministry, and to bring glory to God.That's where Ecclesiastes speaks into stewardship. It reminds us that we don't truly own anything. Everything we have is entrusted to us by God. We're stewards, not owners—and that changes everything.It changes how we think about earning, saving, giving, and even retiring. It redirects our focus from accumulation to impact. Instead of asking, “How much can I gain?” we begin to ask, “How can I use what I have to reflect God's character?”That's the heart of biblical stewardship—living with open hands, trusting God as our provider, and using what we've been given for His glory.The Value of ContentmentEcclesiastes also teaches us something else that's crucial for our financial lives: contentment. The writer encourages us to enjoy our work, to appreciate what we have, and to find joy in the simple gifts of life. It's a call to be present, to stop comparing, and to stop chasing.Whether we're in a season of plenty or a season of little, contentment helps us stay grounded. It reminds us that peace isn't found in having more—it's found in walking with God, where we find lasting peace no matter our financial situation.So, how do we begin to cultivate this perspective? How do we step back and see our finances in light of God's larger story?Start by asking some honest questions: “What truly matters to me?” “What do I want my financial legacy to be?” “How can I reflect God's values in how I manage His money?”When you pause to reflect, you begin to see money not as the end goal, but as a resource to be used wisely and generously. Perspective leads to peace because it ultimately leads us back to God. It frees us from the endless striving and invites us into a deeper trust in His provision.Introducing Wisdom Over WealthThat's why we're so excited to make our new study, Wisdom Over Wealth, available to you.

All of the companies dropped 90%+.LEARNING: Don't let greed, FOMO, and a lack of imagination drive you to a bad investment. “Don't take shortcuts. If you do, at least know that you're gambling and speculating. That's different from investing.”Jeff Sarti Guest profileJeff Sarti, CEO of Morton Wealth, leads a firm managing over $3 billion in assets. With a mission to empower better investors, Jeff helps clients achieve their financial goals while supporting employees in their career growth. A CFA charterholder, Jeff shares his insights through his Perspective newsletter. His expertise emphasizes challenging the status quo and fostering long-term, resilient investment strategies.Worst investment everIn the late 90s, during the dot-com boom, Jeff had just started making a bit of money. He bought a few dot-com companies, thinking it was smart and safe because he bought the big brands. All of the companies dropped 90%+ after a while.Lessons learnedDon't let greed, FOMO, and a lack of imagination drive you to a bad investment.Always do your research.Andrew's takeawaysWhen prices get untethered from earnings growth, our expectation of the future is what matters.Actionable adviceThe only way you can learn is by doing and making mistakes. But before you start doing, do the research, understand the underlying risk factors of your investments, and don't take shortcuts.If you do, at least know you're speculating and not investing. Keep that speculative piece of your portfolio small. It's always a good idea to balance speculative investments with more traditional, long-term investment strategies for a more secure financial future.Jeff's recommendationsJeff recommends checking out resources on his website, such as his investment guides and market analysis, and signing up for his quarterly newsletter if you want financial education.He also recommends reading Thinking Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman and books by Morgan Housel to understand how emotions drive investment decisions.No.1 goal for the next 12 monthsJeff's number one goal for the next 12 months is to continue traveling the country with his investment team, uncovering some new niche opportunities.Parting words “I really enjoyed the conversation.

For the first time as a host combination, Ben, Dan, and Cameron sit down to discuss the most controversial topics in personal finance. We begin with identity and how it informs decision-making. Then, we revisit the renting versus buying debate, why this remains a highly controversial topic, the ins and outs of income investing, and understating the fervor of dividend investing. We also unpack FIRE as a branch of self-help; how it informs happiness; and how personality influences one's approach to the FIRE principle. To end, we closely examine Bill Bengen's 4% rule, and the Aftershow encourages us to maintain high podcasting standards while revealing what you can look forward to in our latest Rational Reminder t-shirt release.    Key Points From This Episode:   (0:01:25) Cameron's positive LinkedIn experience regarding insurance.  (0:08:10) How identity informs decision-making.  (0:15:24) Why renting versus buying a home remains a controversial topic.  (0:27:50) Income investing, covered calls, and the fervor of dividend investing.

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta dives into the future of fragrance with the founders of iRomaScents, Avner Gal and Erin Berry, and celebrated perfumer Veronique Gabai. Together, they explore how artificial intelligence is transforming the way we discover and connect with scent—bringing personalization and clarity to an industry long defined by overwhelm and subjectivity.Avner and Erin share the origin story of iRomaScents, a platform designed to make fragrance discovery intuitive, accessible, and data-driven. What began as a dream to integrate scent into immersive experiences evolved into a cutting-edge solution to one of beauty's most frustrating problems: finding your perfect perfume. The result is an AI-powered “wizard” that uses lifestyle cues and emotional patterns—like your favorite colors or songs—to guide users to scent profiles they'll actually love.Veronique Gabai lends her industry insight to explain how this technology enhances, rather than replaces, the emotional artistry of perfumery. With scent linked so deeply to our reptilian brain, she explains, it's no wonder we struggle to articulate preferences—iRomaScents helps bridge that gap by refining, not replacing, human instinct.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by a perfume counter or struggled to put your preferences into words, this episode offers a glimpse into a smarter, more intuitive future.

Who do we actually owe our $36 trillion national debt to? What is the national debt? Why will it never be repaid? In this solo episode, Hans tackles this rarely asked but crucial question as he continues his "Know Your Enemies" series on understanding central banking.Hans explores the counterintuitive reality that the national debt isn't meant to be repaid - it's an accounting system where government debt functions as an asset for dollar holders worldwide. By examining the perspectives of economist Michael Hudson, he reveals the strange mechanics behind modern monetary policy.From the bizarre relationship between the Treasury and Federal Reserve to why interest rates should remain steady despite political pressure, Hans breaks down complex financial concepts to help listeners understand what's happening with America's financial system and its global implications.The Illusion of National Debt: An exploration of the counterintuitive reality that national debt isn't meant to be repaid. Government debt functions as an asset for dollar and treasury holders, creating a system where debt must continue to exist and grow rather than be eliminated.Three Pillars of American Debt: A breakdown of the three main holders of US debt: everyday people with paper currency, foreign central banks with treasury bills, and the Federal Reserve itself. This creates a bizarre accounting situation where part of the government is indebted to another part of itself.Global Dollar Dominance: An examination of how military and financial systems work together to maintain dollar supremacy worldwide. Dollars flowing internationally benefit Americans, even while creating problematic dependencies in the global financial system.Modern Monetary Theory Critique: A presentation of alternative perspectives on debt sustainability, acknowledging theoretical insights while questioning whether this system can continue indefinitely without major problems as interest payments grow.➡️ Chapters:00:00 - Introduction to Know Your Enemies Series01:00 - Trump, Powell, and Interest Rate Debates04:00 - Two Factors: Interest Rates vs. Congressional Spending 08:00 - Why Lowering Interest Rates May Not Work 12:00 - Key Questions About National Debt 14:00 - Government Debt as an Asset for Others 19:00 - The Federal Reserve's Unusual Relationship with Treasury 23:00 - Michael Hudson's Perspective on National Debt 27:00 - Paper Currency as Government Debt 31:00 - How Dollars Circulate Globally 35:00 - Foreign Central Bank Reserves 39:00 - The Dollar Standard Replacing Gold45:00 - The Federal Reserve Holding Treasury Bills 49:00 - Why the Debt Can't Be Repaid 53:00 - Financial Markets vs. Real Economy 57:00 - National Security Risks of Debt⁠Visit https://remnantfinance.com for more informationFOLLOW REMNANT FINANCEYoutube: @RemnantFinance (https://www.youtube.com/@RemnantFinance)Facebook: @remnantfinance (https://www.facebook.com/profile?id=61560694316588)Twitter: @remnantfinance (https://x.com/remnantfinance)TikTok: @RemnantFinance Don't forget to hit LIKE and SUBSCRIBE

"I was just feeling bad for myself… like, what's wrong? How do I figure this out? I just feel like nothing is gonna change for me. But I said yes to the work, and everything started to shift."In this inspiring and emotionally honest episode, Elshia Vasquez returns to share her story of going from self-doubt and anxiety to sustaining her business within just three months of private coaching with me.When she first reached out, Elshia was freshly out of a counseling job and struggling with self-worth, visibility fears, and the weight of unprocessed childhood wounds. But something in her said yes. Yes to diving deeper. Yes to healing. Yes to finally building what she was meant to create.What followed was a transformational private container where we addressed her inner child wounding head-on, cleared emotional patterns tied to worthlessness and procrastination, and built the tangible business foundation she had always envisioned. In just three months, she landed long-term clients, created her freebie, grew her email list—and perhaps most importantly, rewired her nervous system and confidence from the inside out.If you've ever felt frozen by fear, unsure how to move forward, or held back by invisible emotional blocks, Elshia's story will remind you: it's never too late to choose yourself, heal at the root, and watch your purpose take flight. TODAY'S HIGHLIGHTS(00:00) Intro(00:55) In Today's Episode...

In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Ty Horn, who many of you might know from his presence on Instagram where he shares powerful insights about strength training, Jiu-Jitsu, and life.   Ty and I dove deep into his story—from being a Division 1 football player to hitting a major life setback, then rediscovering strength through strongman competitions and eventually falling in love with Jiu-Jitsu. He shared how strength training gave him not only physical resilience but a sense of identity and purpose again, especially after dealing with legal trouble, being ostracized, and navigating the post-athlete identity crisis.   This was a real, vulnerable, and fun conversation that covered so much more than just sports or lifting. Ty brought honesty, humor, and perspective to what it really means to train for life—not just for aesthetics or wins.   If you're a parent, an athlete trying to figure out “what's next,” or someone who's trying to find their groove in fitness and life again—this episode is for you.   Follow Ty and his training journey, insights, and life lessons here: Instagram: @mobility_monster74 YouTube: @mobilitymonster74  

Purpose is a factor of life that every man knows will improve his quality of life. Unfortunately, we seem to be in an era when purpose is increasingly abysmal in the lives of too many men. Men in all walks and stages of life are floundering around aimlessly, wondering why they're anxious, depressed, and alone. My guest today, Garrett Unclebach, former Navy SEAL, is a man who is intimately familiar with why and how purpose drives men to step up, take charge of their lives, and succeed. We unpack why a man must look beyond himself, how surrendering in certain circumstances could lead you to an incredible place you've never considered, the power of equanimity and how to cultivate it, why being faithful when you have nothing leads to a life of prosperity and abundance, and how to judge what you should be doing and who you should be doing it with.

Welcome to Day 2634 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2634 – New Testament Orientation – The Jesus of History Putnam Church Message – 05/18/2025 Sermon Series: New Testament Orientation Message 4: The Jesus of History   Last week, we returned to the intertestamental period between the Old and New Testaments and explored The Culture and Cosmology of the Intertestamental Period. Our core verses for last week were Galatians 3:26-29. Verse 28 summarizes the message. There is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus.  Today, we will explore how Jesus appears in history outside the Bible. Our core verses for today are: Matthew 25:31-36  “But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit upon his glorious throne. All the nations will be gathered in his presence, and he will separate the people as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will place the sheep at his right hand and the goats at his left. “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the creation of the world. For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.' (Opening Prayer) Heavenly Father, we gather once more, our hearts open to the enduring story of Jesus of Nazareth. We seek not just to remember him, but to truly understand him within the tapestry of his time. Expand our minds and hearts, Lord, as we delve deeper into the historical realities that shaped his earthly journey. May your Spirit illuminate the path of the Jesus of history, revealing the profound significance of his life for our faith today. It is in Jesus' name we pray, Amen. The Jesus of History (From the Perspective of Ancient Israelites and Early Christians): For generations, the whispers of the prophets had echoed in the synagogues and homes, foretelling the coming of the Messiah, the Anointed One who would restore the fortunes of Israel. They clung tightly to these promises during times of both fleeting autonomy and prolonged subjugation under foreign powers. The anticipation was a constant hum beneath the surface of the Israelites daily lives, a yearning for the promised deliverer. Yet, when Jesus of Nazareth finally appeared, his presence and his message often defied the very expectations they had nurtured for centuries. (Connecting to Current Context): Consider the anticipation surrounding a significant historical event or the arrival of a long-awaited leader. We often build up a mental image, a set of expectations based on news, past experiences, and our own desires. Think of the fervor surrounding a new era, a revolutionary movement, or the promise of a technological breakthrough. We imagine a specific outcome, a particular way in which the change will manifest. When the reality unfolds, it can sometimes be surprising, even challenging, to reconcile our...
