In the final message of our series called One Another, Pastor Mel explains the importance of honoring one another. Honor is rooted in biblical love and therefore bears consequences for the condition of our hearts. Practicing dishonor corrupts a person's heart and limits his relationship with God. Familiarity breeds contempt and too much familiarity can lead to a lack of reverence for God. Scripture instructs us to honor our parents, our pastors, and even people we dislike. A Christian is able to honor others with right actions, words, appropriate times of silence, and sacrificial love from an authentic heart. God wants us to honor our enemies, but doing so is only possible when Jesus changes us by the power of the Holy Spirit.

when's the last time you asked yourself what YOU really want?

Sermon Scripture: Luke 12:13-34Jesus warns that bigger barns and fuller accounts cannot save us, because what we keep we eventually lose, and what we freely give away is what we end up keeping. Today we'll remind ourselves of the freedom that comes by living generously. Then we will learn about how the early church lived this out and ask ourselves how our own daily practices of generosity can lead us into a life of true freedom, contentment, and satisfaction.And maybe, just maybe, as God's people respond to this call, the world can become a little better, safer, satisfied, and provided for along the way.

Podcast Notes   Episode 480 Practicing a Relentless Empathy, w/ Dr. Brian Piccolo Host: Brian Miller, PCC Guest: Dr. Brian Piccolo Date: August 28th, 2025 In this episode, Brian interviews Dr. Brian Piccolo, author of Relentless Empathy. They discuss the transformative power of empathy in relationships, ministry, and everyday life. Dr. Piccolo shares personal stories from his marriage, ministry, and family that illustrate how empathy—understood as connecting, understanding, relating, and empowering—can heal, restore, and deepen human connection. Key Highlights Kobe Bryant's influence: A quote from Bryant about regretting not having more empathy inspired Piccolo to research the concept in depth, discovering empathy's relatively new place in language and culture. The C.U.R.E. model of empathy: Connect, Understand, Relate, Empower—Piccolo's framework for applying empathy in practical, everyday settings. Biblical grounding: Scripture passages such as Hebrews 10:24, Philippians 2:4, and Romans 12:15 reinforce the call to empathy as central to discipleship and relational wholeness. Personal stories of transformation: Piccolo recounts connecting with his suicidal father through empathy, and how listening, mirroring emotions, and meeting needs can restore purpose and hope. Takeaways Empathy is an action: It goes beyond feelings of pity or sympathy to actively connect, listen, and respond to others' needs. Questions equal love: Asking thoughtful questions communicates care and often does more good than offering advice or solutions. Empathy restores relationships: Whether in marriage, ministry, or family, practicing empathy opens doors to healing and deeper connection. Biblical call to empathy: Loving our neighbor as ourselves requires taking genuine interest in others' lives, needs, and emotions.

The Svadhisthana, or Sacral Chakra, is associated with emotions, creativity, sensuality, and the water element. Located in the lower belly, it is symbolised by a six-petaled lotus representing desire, sensuality, adaptability, emotional balance, creativity, and fantasy. The crescent moon within the lotus reflects the cyclical nature of emotions, reminding us to embrace change with grace.The chakra's bija mantra is “VAM,” and its mudra is Jala Hasta, symbolising emotional flow. When balanced, it fosters healthy desire, creativity, and the right to feel and express. Imbalances may manifest as emotional extremes, attachment, or numbness.Svadhisthana governs our ability to experience pleasure and emotional depth. The associated sense is taste, emphasising the importance of savouring life. Represented by water-associated symbols like the yoni and crocodile, it embodies fluidity and primal instincts. Practicing yoga helps cultivate awareness, balance, and a deeper connection to our emotions and creativity.To read more and to practice with Zephyr Wildman, click here.

The takeaway: enhancing developer productivity isn't just about tools—it's about habits, problem-solving, and continuous growth.

On the job, strength is measured in grit, control, and composure under pressure. But behind the badge (Amazon Affiliate), there's another kind of strength that's often overlooked: emotional intelligence. Why does it still feel “soft” or unsafe to express empathy, vulnerability, or self-awareness on the job? In this episode, Ashlie and Clint unpack the silent tension between tactical competence and emotional growth—revealing why the two aren't opposites at all, but deeply intertwined forms of resilience.

A Critique of Practicing the Way, Part 18 - Spirituality Divorced from Rationality, presented by Bob DeWaay and Barb Gretch. John Mark Comer claims that the most important goal of apprenticeship is being with Jesus - being aware of His presence and hearing His voice.

Disappointment is something we all carry — the gap between what we hoped for and what is. In this message, Alisha explores what it means to live in the “Saturday” space of life — that confusing middle ground between loss and resurrection, when God feels silent and hope seems buried. Instead of despair or denial, we're invited to wait — to bring our raw honesty before God in lament, to lean into community, and to discover that even in our deepest disappointments, Jesus is walking right beside us.

A Note from JamesThere's always been debate about whether college is worth it. But what if there's a better alternative—one that actually prepares you to become the person you want to be? My good friend Matt Smith just wrote a book with Doug Casey called The Preparation. It's not theory—he's been putting his own son through it as a real-world experiment. Instead of college, Maxim has spent the past two years learning skills like EMT training, firefighting, building houses, working cattle, and even launching a business. This is a practical roadmap for turning those years of 18–22 into a hero's journey. I loved this conversation, and I'm sending the book to all of my kids.Episode DescriptionJames talks with entrepreneur and writer Matt Smith about his new book The Preparation, co-authored with Doug Casey. The book lays out a four-year alternative to college built around “cycles”—three-month intensive experiences designed to build practical skills, personal codes, and real-world wisdom. From earning an EMT license to fighting wildfires, training in Muay Thai, or running a small business, these cycles are designed to help young people become independent, capable, and resilient. James and Matt discuss why the traditional college path often fails, how to build a personal code of values, and why the future belongs to “expert generalists” who know how to learn across disciplines.What You'll LearnWhy “be, do, have” is a more powerful framework for life than chasing possessions or credentials.How creating a personal code builds self-respect and identity.Why intergenerational relationships matter more than peer validation.How cycles of hands-on learning—from EMT work to entrepreneurship—prepare young people better than a classroom ever could.Why becoming an expert generalist is the best hedge against a future dominated by AI and automation.Timestamped Chapters[00:00] A Note from James: College vs. alternatives[01:00] Introducing Matt Smith and The Preparation[03:00] Origins of the book and Doug Casey's vision[05:00] Writing the book for his son Maxim[06:00] Why homeschooling replaced high school[07:00] “Be, Do, Have” explained[09:00] Stacking cycles vs. stacking skills[10:00] Why the book focuses on young men (and how women can adapt it)[11:00] How to build your own cycle[13:00] Why traditional education fails to prepare people for real skills[14:00] Establishing a personal code[16:00] Examples of personal rules for self-respect[18:00] Practicing courage and choosing virtues[20:00] Skills Maxim has gained so far—EMT, chess, horses, firefighting[22:00] Adventures with Doug Casey and small-country nation building[24:00] Maxim's cycles: EMT work, ranch apprenticeship, wildfire EMT[27:00] Structure, resistance, and learning by doing[28:00] Shelter Institute and learning to build a house[29:00] Entrepreneurship cycle: precision agriculture with drones[31:00] Lessons from entrepreneurship[32:00] Muay Thai training in Thailand[33:00] Cooking school in Florence[34:00] Travel with purpose vs. aimless wandering[36:00] James on biographies and meaningful decisions[37:00] Preparing for AI and the future of work[39:00] Why being an “expert generalist” matters[41:00] Learning how to learn across environments[42:00] The problem with peer-only education[44:00] Intergenerational relationships as mentorship[45:00] What comes after the preparation[47:00] Why the program can work for adults too[49:00] Rethinking retirement as another cycle of preparation[56:00] Matt's personal growth through writing and learning new skills[58:00] Designing The Preparation as a beautiful, interactive book[59:00] Closing thoughts and sending the book to the next generationAdditional ResourcesMatt Smith & Doug Casey — The PreparationDoug Casey's Take (Podcast): YouTube ChannelDoug Casey's Official Site: internationalman.comThe Shelter Institute (Learn to Build a House): shelterinstitute.comMuay Thai Training in Thailand (Example School): Santai Muay Thai GymFlorence Cooking School Example: Apicius International School of HospitalityStripe Press (Books mentioned by Matt): stripe.pressDoug Casey's Classic Book — Crisis Investing: AmazonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this week's episode, Paul Andrews addresses a common challenge among beginner guitarists: learning and actually remembering songs. Paul shares a structured approach to not just learning new songs but maintaining and improving them over time. Whether you're struggling to recall previously learned tunes or looking to build a solid repertoire, this episode offers practical tips and actionable steps to level up your song practice routine.Key Topics CoveredCommunity Update:Paul announces a live Zoom Q&A taking place on Sunday, 31st August at 9 pm GMT for Beginner Guitar Academy members. He details how to join, submit questions, and access the recorded session if you can't attend live.Practicing Songs vs. Practicing Skills:Songs are a collection of different skills (chords, rhythms, techniques).Key tip: Break songs down into their skill components to assess if they're suitable for your current level.Avoid picking songs that are too far above your ability; focus on skills first, then songs.A System for Learning Songs Efficiently:Step One: Pick the Right Song:Choose a song that aligns with your current skillset.Listen to the original, identify sections (intro, verse, chorus), and loop those sections in practice.Start with simplified versions and play the song slowly. Only increase tempo as you gain confidence.Step 2: The 3 Ps System for Maintaining Songs:Practice – For new or challenging songs/sections. Loop and break down tricky parts.Playthrough – For songs you can mostly play but need to keep fresh.Perform – For songs you know inside out; these are gig-ready or can be played start to finish confidently.Rotate songs between these categories as your abilities improve.Step 3 - Balancing New Songs and Old Songs (The 50/50 Rule):Don't just chase new songs or only maintain old ones. Spend half your practice on new material and half on revisiting and maintaining what you already know.Common Mistakes (and How to Fix Them):Always starting at the beginning of a tune.Not listening to the original recording.Neglecting old songs.Not keeping a song log.Collecting snippets instead of completing full songs.Practicing without a clear goal.Action Plan for This Week:Make a list of every song you can (or almost can) play.Categorize each into Practice, Playthrough, or Perform.Schedule a setlist run-through (like a mini gig at home).Add a new, suitable song to your practice pile, balance new and old (50/50).Track your song practice and progress.TakeawaysFocus on skill-appropriate songs, break them down, and use a structured maintenance method to truly own your repertoire.Rotate between learning new material and refreshing old songs to keep your playing both exciting and reliable.Set clear intentions with every song practice session to avoid getting stuck or demotivated.Celebrate your progress as songs move from “Practice” to “Playthrough” and finally “Perform”.Resources MentionedBeginner Guitar Academy: Join for a structured, supportive approach to learning, with access to live Q&As, workshops, a song library, and two weeks of access for just $1.Next Steps:Ready to make progress with your song repertoire?

Steve Gruber discusses news and headlines 

I call it, “Bumper-sticker Theology.” That's my label for the kind of theology that involves no deep, contemplative, pondering or meditation of the weighty issues of faith. But rather it's like a drive-by approach to significant issues where we just wave at them as we go past and summarize our conclusions in pithy phrases that fit well on t-shirts or bumper stickers. We have a plague of bumper-sticker theology in our generation.Daniel Schreiner, “Engaging with ‘Practicing the Way': Nine Thoughts on John Mark Comer's Best Seller,” March 12, 2025.

How do games like Dungeons and Dragons enable us to practice a CMM-informed way of relating, participating, and communicating? ...Today, Abbie and Tom explore Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) as a powerful practice and metaphor for developing more relational, emergent, and collaborative ways of being and leading, touching on the value of experiential learning in scenarios our brains will remember as real; the need (both in game and out) to coordinate across different meanings being made in each of our own imaginations; and the opportunity to transform and be transformed by collective storytelling and world building. ...Tom Watkin is a passionate business leader and writer who bridges the imaginative world of Dungeons & Dragons with real-world leadership and teamwork development. He is the creative force behind the DnD at Work blog, where he explores how roleplaying games can be powerful tools for honing soft skills like communication, collaboration, strategic thinking, and emotional intelligence in a safe, playful environment.Beyond the blog, Tom is a business leader in the environmental sector with experience across Australia, Europe, New Zealand and Asia.

What if everything you've been told about genetics and disease is keeping you trapped as a victim instead of empowered as the author of your health? In this profound episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily sits down with the legendary Dr. Jeffrey Bland, biochemist, researcher, and the father of functional medicine, whose work has transformed the lives of millions by shifting healthcare from "what do we call it?" to "how did we get here?" Dr. Bland reveals the life-changing truth that our genes don't determine our destiny—they simply offer potential. The real power lies in how we treat those genes through our daily choices: what we eat, how we breathe, how we move, and even how we think.

On this episode of In The Circle, I address a deep and personal question from Annesa: Can I recover from a lifelong struggle with food and body dysmorphia resulting from sexual abuse?This inquiry sheds light on the intricate relationship between trauma, self-view, and the longing for healing in a society where many women undergo sexual assault. For us to discover true healing, we need to confront and question our deep-seated identities and beliefs and reconnect with our emotional and spiritual essence. Practicing techniques like Kundalini Yoga and mindfulness can play a huge part in helping us achieve our ultimate goal of peace and freedom. We need to be striving daily to discover our truths, discard detrimental self-beliefs, and embrace self-love and acceptance, especially when confronted with societal challenges and personal traumas. Not only does this guide us to experience true healing and recovery, it extends a beacon of hope to those on a similar healing journey.Tommy discussesThe importance of discovering one's true self beyond trauma and storiesWhy recovery is about realizing the divinity within and coming to the truth of who you areHow trauma keeps you in a story that distances you from your true selfThe multiple benefits of practicing yoga and mindfulnessHow to create an identity filled with love, compassion, and presence.Further Links & ResourcesCatch a Meeting.

In his book Practicing the Way John Mark Comer makes the claim that Jesus believes in us.

How do you find joy when the diagnosis feels devastating? How can you become the joyful person God calls you to be—even in the midst of your deepest pain?Author Margaret Feinberg was nearing the completion of a book on joy when she received a life-altering diagnosis: aggressive cancer. What followed was a profound season of wrestling—an honest, raw search to understand what joy truly means when suffering feels overwhelming. Through that journey, Margaret discovered a deeper, more authentic belief about joy: that it can be a defiant act of worship in the darkest valleys. And when we choose to give joy away—even when we don't feel it—our own joy can begin to grow.In the midst of her pain, Margaret encountered the transformative power and presence of the Holy Spirit. Her latest book, **The God You Need to Know: Experience the Holy Spirit's Power and Presence Today**, invites readers to experience that same presence no matter what they're walking through.In this uplifting conversation, Davey and Margaret discuss how to truly show up for others in ways that heal rather than hurt, where joy can be found in suffering, and how to navigate the lingering fear that often follows hardship.If you're in a season where joy feels distant, this episode will encourage you to see that even small acts of sharing joy with others can help awaken it in your own heart as you walk through suffering.
