Avoidance works. That's the problem. Every time you dodge the hard thing, the relief is real—and so is the price you don't see coming. In this final episode of the series on avoidance, Dr. Greg makes the case that the way out isn't escape or a burst of willpower, but presence: staying in the room one second longer than you want to, and letting God meet you in the mess you were trying to hide. Key Topics: Why the relief avoidance gives you is exactly what keeps you stuck Why good therapy and mentorship refuse to hand you advice—and why that's what actually heals How even "staying present" can quietly become one more way to avoid what's surfacing Why healing works like a bruise, not a breakthrough—slow, at its own pace, and impossible to rush What to do the moment the wall goes up: stay in the room one second longer than you want to Why God doesn't wait at the finish line of your healing, but walks through the locked door to meet you in it Learn More: Presence Virtual Retreat: As a gift to listeners of Being Human, we're offering two full months free.

Yemen's Houthi rebels have announced a maritime embargo against Saudi Arabia, raising fears of further disruption to Red Sea shipping. Previous threats have already disrupted Saudi oil exports, with crude loadings through the Bab Al Mandeb strait falling 36 per cent in two weeks. The conflict between the US and Iran continues for a 10th night. US Central Command said it targeted maritime capabilities, command centres, and missile and drone sites, while Iran launched attacks on Kuwait and Jordan again. In Lebanon, the US said pilot zones for the Israeli military's withdrawal from the south of the country have begun. The announcement comes ahead of Lebanese President Joseph Aoun's visit to the White House today. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump's Board of Peace has approved a pilot project to house Palestinians in Gaza, in a move that appears to stray from initial plans for reconstruction. And the UAE marks a milestone in its Emiratisation programme as more than 190,000 Emiratis are now employed by private companies, meeting the scheme's targets for the first half of the year.

Today I am speaking with food historian Peter Gilchrist and food writer Ross Clarke, who specialise in writing about and rediscovering the traditional foods of Scotland and Wales, respectively.Peter is a returning guest who goes under the name Tenement Kitchen and is the co-host of The Scottish Food History Podcast. Ross is a food and travel writer and author of The Welsh Kitchen on Substack.They both use a bakestone or griddle (or whatever you call yours – there are quite a few names for the usually round, usually iron piece of iron we bake our crumpets, drop scones, muffins and Welsh cakes upon) and I thought we should discuss using them and some of the best of British bakestone bakes. We talk about the place of bakestones and griddles in British food culture, Welsh cakes, bannocks and pikelets, classic writers such as Bobby Freeman and F. Marion McNeill and the applied uses of bacon fat, amongst many other things.Those listening to the secret podcast get plenty of bonus material where we discuss adapting traditional recipes to keep them relevant, how annoyed I get when classic recipes get messed around with, what we get out of recreating historical recipes and buttermilk – plus more.Follow Peter on social media: @TenementKitchen on Facebook, Insta, Bluesky, X and TikTokFollow Ross on Social Media: @theguiri on Insta, @rosswclarke on X and FacebookTenement Kitchen websiteThe Welsh Kitchen on SubstackSeason 10 of the podcast is sponsored by Netherton Foundry, makers of high-quality kitchen and outdoor cookware.

Hi, it's Neil Cowmeadow here with episode 435 of The Tutor Podcast, the Monday morning shot of uncommon sense for anyone who wants start, grow and love their own tutoring, teaching and coaching business – the same way I love mine.  As usual I've been rummaging through the ragbag of my mind and my notebooks, the ones I've made during all the courses, seminars, classes, webinars, conferences, field trips, research projects, books, trade press, videos and a ton of other stuff I've done over the years… Boiling it down to get at the good bits so I can give them to you in a no-nonsense, No BS kind of way... So I'm squeezing a little more juice out of it for myself, and –at the same time - sharing it with you here in the hope that it helps you have as much fun at work and in life as I do. And – of course - I'm not just here to talk, I'm listening - so if you have any ideas that might be worth sharing via the show – get in touch info@neilcowmeadow.com or on X where I am @TutorPodcast, and maybe you can help me to learn something new, something better? Because I'm smart enough to realise that I don't have all the answers, and if I rely on my own tiny, pea-sized brain to solve all of my problems…. Well..... If you're good with that, let's crack on...  This is an idea I've used for years, and I highly recommend it to anyone who can't get away fast enough... It's one of those simple, effective routines that makes so much sense, takes very little effort, and makes life significantly better, right off the bat. It's a few minutes, last thing at night – and it can remove oceans of stress and anxiety, letting you sleep better and get more epic stuff done. Here it is: Open up your diary or organiser – PAPER, please – to the page where you run the week or day. Paper, please - because it will make things more immediate and improve your thinking.  Previous ep 426 – exploring how writing longhand with a real pen improves brain function and learning Empty your brain out onto the page – simple note to yourself of all the things that are whizzing round in your tiny, pea-sized brain. Don't sort or judge – just dump everything onto the page Now go to sleep. Simple – but powerful... you see, your brain is for thinking with, not for storing large amounts of data. Forcing that data – all the stuff – out onto paper relieves the pressure on the brain to NOT FORGET STUFF. Reducing the load on your brain's limited resources by externalising cognition (getting it out into a different location) is like cleaning the desktop after a busy day, putting everything where it should go, ready to begin tomorrow with a clear desktop, uncluttered by yesterday's chaos. Write down EVERYTHING: jobs and tasks you suddenly remembered, the slides for tomorrow's lesson or presentation, a reminder to pay the cleaner.... everything. We've all had the experience of turning out the light, snuggling down for a good night's sleep and then – ooh!   Something pops up in your mind – usually minor but important. You now have to decide whether to turn the light on and find something to scribble it down on, or risk that sleep you were just drifting into... or – worst of all – swiping your phone and making a note to yourself on it... This CLOSEDOWN procedure is common in many high performance environments – including armed forces, intelligence services, spaces agencies and the like. So if it's good enough for them.... You can also use your brain dump to set up your most important 1-3 things to do tomorrow - once you've finished your dump.  I know a few of you will now be smirking like naughty schoolboys because I said “finished your dump”. You know who you are!  Running this routine every night ensures that less important STUFF slips through the net, and – perhaps more important than that – promotes better sleep whilst giving a feeling of being more in control of your life. So get started with this one if you want to do better work, forget fewer important things, sleep better and enjoy a more relaxed life with less stress... And let me know how it works for you via email to info@neilcowmeadow.com  AND if you have any comments, questions or problems,  get in touch  - again it's info@neilcowmeadow.com    or on X where I am @The Tutor Podcast Let's leave it there for today – I hope this show has got you thinking and has been some help to you. Join me – Neil Cowmeadow – for the next episode of The Tutor Podcast for more No-BS tips and ideas of how to Start, Grow and Love YOUR Tutoring Business – just like I love mine. Till then, remember that Life is largely what you make it, so make it gorgeous. Be excellent to yourself and to those you love - stay healthy, stay useful, and Have a Fabulous Day!

//The Wire//1800Z July 16, 2026// //ROUTINE// //BLUF: UKRAINIAN ATTACKS CONTINUE ON RUSSIAN SHIPPING IN BLACK SEA, RUSSIA RETALIATES BY STRIKING UKRAINIAN SHIPPING. WILDFIRES CONTINUE TO SPREAD IN CANADA.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Europe: The war in Ukraine has continued to expand, with attacks on Russian merchant vessels remaining constant in the Black Sea. Russia has likewise retaliated by striking Ukrainian vessels also located within the Black Sea, as well as several port cities in southwestern Ukraine.Middle East: The war continues as before, with regular strikes taking place in the coastal regions which have been host to targeting for several days. Last night the US struck the port of Bandar Abbas again, and the Iranians have responded with attacks on Kuwait, which continued sporadically overnight.Analyst Comment: One aspect of the war that has not escalated for now, has been the conflict between Saudi Arabia and Yemen. After the initial mutual strikes two days ago, the Saudi's have chosen to back off of this line of effort, probably because they realized how bad of an idea it is to start a fight with the Houthis right now. That Saudi East-West Pipeline is the main asset that is keeping Saudi Arabia in the global oil market right now, and the Houthis can very easily threaten their main revenue source.Canada: Over the past few days, wildfires have continued to spread throughout the nation. As of this morning, at total of 859x wildfires are actively burning nationwide in Canada, most of which are clustered in Ontario, Qeubec, and the Northwest Territories. Of these active fires, 63x are out of control with zero percent containment. Evacuations of thousands of rural and tribal areas have been ordered over thousands of square miles, and air quality alerts have been issued for much of the American northeast and mid-Atlantic due to the smoke.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Though not exactly grabbing front page headlines, the war in Ukraine has continued to expand and become increasingly more serious during this year's summer offensive.Numbers are hard to independently verify, but the Ukrainians claim a total of 136x Russian vessels have been struck so far during this Black Sea targeting campaign since it began last week. This number seems a little high, but what is undeniable is that the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov have become a new front during this war...for both sides, as demonstrated by the Russians now targeting Ukrainian ships. Equally important is the impact this is having on the broader Russian oil market. Previous strikes on petroleum refineries resulted in fuel shortages throughout Russia, which have varied by severity and location. Striking tankers in the Black Sea really only impacts the petroleum export market, and the long-term impacts of this will be interesting to follow. Like it or not, the concept of globalization has functioned as designed, and most nations are linked to each other in ways that are not readily apparent at first. Russia mostly exports oil to India and China, and their exports have remained high during the Persian Gulf crisis. So Ukraine, in striking the oil intended for China, is directly playing a hand in the Gulf War...a conflict thousands of miles away. How this will manifest over the next few weeks will be important. Gas prices in the US have been MUCH cheaper than they should be, due to a long list of factors, one of which has been the Chinese dipping into their own reserves to sharply reduce their demand. Ukraine strikes ships intended for China, and China now has to either dip into their reserves more...or buy more oil from the Middle East, and demand goes up in an already restricted supply chain. The Gulf War is still hot to some degree, and the miniscule flow of oil that had begun to trickle out of the Gulf during the ceasefire has once again slowed to a drip...and now that Ukraine is striking Russian oil intended for China, an already tight oil market is probably going to be squeezed even harder.Analyst: S2A1 Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground NomadNet: 5fa68c88be727a0e1a250a75e5e79269 Disclaimer: No LLMs were used in the writing of this report. //END REPORT//

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, Today's Class, KUKUI, and Pit Crew Loyalty Watch Full Video Episode A viral social media clip about ADAS calibrations sparked thousands of comments and exposed a troubling reality: many automotive professionals still misunderstand when and why calibrations are required. In this episode, Carm Capriotto welcomes technical specialists and industry leaders Keith Perkins and Matt Fanslow to examine the industry's response, separate fact from fiction, and explain why following OEM repair procedures is essential for both vehicle safety and professional credibility. What You'll Learn The difference between static and dynamic ADAS calibrations, and why confusing the two leads to costly mistakes.Why programming, configuration, initialization, and calibration are separate procedures with different purposes.How fear of losing a sale often outweighs concerns about vehicle safety and liability.The real-world consequences of skipping OEM-required calibration procedures.How a properly calibrated vehicle helped protect Keith's wife and children during a serious highway rollover crash.How elevating the role of theCalibration Specialistreinforces professionalism and builds customer confidence. ADAS calibrations are not optional add-ons or revenue generators; they are critical safety procedures designed by vehicle manufacturers to ensure advanced safety systems perform as intended. Professional repair shops protect their customers by following OEM repair information, completing every required calibration, and returning every vehicle to the road safe and ready to perform.

Alan takes a deep dive into his understanding of the phenomenon of prophecy, how it operates, and its surprising purpose. Alan explains the different between prophecy and prediction, the tests a prophet will face, and contrasts his approach to that of the Old Testament prophets.

As we move closer to the end of July, an uncomfortable reality starts to set in for kids and their families. Summer break is slowly slipping away, and a new school year looms on the horizon. That means families need to start thinking about what gear and clothes they want and need in the fall.Yes, it's back to school shopping season. And whether you are getting a college student ready to go back to campus or are checking off your K-12 student's supply list, one thing is clear. You'll need to dig deeper into your wallet this year.This week, contributor Eileen Dallabrida conducted her annual review of the back-to-school shopping landscape and she joined Tom Byrne earlier this week to let us know what to expect.

This week on the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts ask the eternal tabletop question: what happens when your beloved fantasy RPG grows up, gets a driver's license, discovers firearms, and immediately becomes everyone's problem? We begin with PishPash My Memory is Trash merch, accidental mug design crimes, Pride, wizard bazookas, and Ash's long-simmering legal case against the movie Bright. Then we get to the real issue: how do you let someone fight Tiamat with an Uzi without turning your campaign into a spreadsheet, a war crime, or Shadowrun with the serial numbers filed off? Show Notes In this episode, the RPGBOT crew takes a deep dive into adapting fantasy tabletop RPG systems like D&D and Pathfinder to other technology levels, including modern fantasy, science fiction, cyberpunk-adjacent worlds, post-apocalyptic settings, and anything else where a greatsword might have to share table space with a grenade launcher. Tyler walks through the history of previous attempts to drag D&D-style mechanics out of the dungeon and into other genres, including d20 Star Wars, d20 Modern, Star Wars Saga Edition, Star Wars 5e, and the often-forgotten Modern Magic Unearthed Arcana. Along the way, the hosts dig into how those systems handled things like armor, hit points, wounds, vitality, class design, talents, occupations, reputation, and the eternal question of whether getting shot with a blaster should feel worse than being poked with a longsword. The conversation turns into a practical design checklist for anyone trying to run fantasy rules in a modern or sci-fi setting. The big issues are weapons, armor, hit points, movement, vehicles, skills, tools, hacking, currency, magic, classes, monsters, and access to dangerous gear. A gun that does more damage than a sword is easy to write down. Making that gun fun, balanced, available, expensive, illegal, scary, and not immediately campaign-breaking is the actual work. The hosts also wrestle with the big philosophical question: at what point have you changed D&D so much that you should just play a different game? Tyler's rule of changing three major things makes its return, Ash argues for fantasy with modern aesthetics, Randall brings up comet-based magic awakenings and Maximum Overdrive, and everyone briefly imagines what happens when a party of adventurers has to fight a kaiju from inside a tank. Finally, the Question of the Week asks the most important dice-related question possible: what is your favorite die, and which one deserves to be thrown into the sea? Ash defends the d8 and declares war on the foot-stabbing d4. Tyler gives some love to the underappreciated d12. Randall hates the actual d100 because it is basically a tiny chaotic bowling ball that refuses to stop rolling. D20 Modern on DMsGuild (affiliate link) D20 Future on DMsGuild (affiliate link) SW5e Bright RPGBOT.Store DnD 5e modern rules UA "Modern Magic" Dan Helmick's update IMDB Maximum Overdrive Dimension 20: A Starstruck Odyssey Dice Miner (affiliate link) Key Takeaways Adapting fantasy RPGs to modern or sci-fi settings is not just about adding guns. You have to rethink combat assumptions, armor, hit points, movement, skills, equipment, enemies, and the economy. Previous d20-based games offer useful examples. d20 Star Wars experimented with wounds and vitality. d20 Modern used basic classes tied to ability scores, occupations, talents, and advanced classes. Star Wars Saga Edition showed some early design DNA that later appeared in 4e. Firearms and modern weapons change the math quickly. A pistol, rifle, grenade, or blaster can make traditional fantasy damage assumptions look very strange unless the system accounts for armor, accuracy, availability, legality, and consequences. Armor may need to work differently. In a modern game, characters probably are not walking around in plate armor, so armor might reduce damage, resist ballistic attacks, or be replaced partly by class-based defense or plot-armor-style scaling. Hit points can still work, but they need a clear interpretation. They might represent luck, stamina, near misses, tactical positioning, or cinematic survival rather than literal meat points. Vehicles change encounter design. Horses and overland travel are one thing. Cars, motorcycles, tanks, aircraft, and spaceships make movement, chase scenes, distance, and random encounters much more complicated. Skills and tools need updating. Computers, hacking, piloting, driving, engineering, and modern medicine may need to be skills, tool proficiencies, lore-style specialties, or full subsystems depending on how important they are to the campaign. The modern world makes Strength harder to justify unless the game gives it a reason to matter. Close quarters, carrying capacity, melee restrictions, grappling, armor, and specialized builds can help keep strong characters relevant. Classes may need reskinning rather than replacement. A barbarian might become a super-soldier, a rage-serum bruiser, or a minigun-wielding menace. A cleric might serve an ideal, philosophy, cosmic force, AI god, or belief system rather than a traditional deity. Magic can stay magical, become technology, or sit beside technology. Fireball might still be a spell, or it might be a grenade, a rocket launcher, a plasma weapon, or a problem for your insurance provider. Monsters still work if you treat them thoughtfully. Vampires, mind flayers, zombies, kaiju, and the Tarrasque can all survive in modern settings if their defenses, tactics, environment, and narrative role make sense. Access matters. Just because tanks, RPGs, and military hardware exist does not mean the party can buy them at Fantasy Costco. Price, legality, scarcity, black markets, and consequences are balancing tools. Currency may be better handled abstractly. Modern money can become tedious fast, so a wealth stat or resource system may work better than tracking every nickel, dime, credit card, crypto wallet, and suspicious suitcase full of cash. Tyler's three-change rule is a useful warning sign. If you need to make three huge changes to force D&D into another genre, consider whether another RPG already does what you want better. The episode's greatest lesson may be this: you can absolutely kill Tiamat with an Uzi, but first you need to know what that does to armor class, encounter balance, campaign tone, and the local black market.

In this episode, I'm answering a question your brain may already be asking without you realizing it. Maybe you're still in it, trying to stop binge eating or find some peace with food.

Gettysburg history is HOT this week. Once you dig deep into the Battle of Gettysburg, one thing leads to another. Today, we are led to WEATHER! ***A brief departure from Ask A Gettysburg Guide for the 163rd Anniversary week*** Was the Battle of Gettysburg even more miserable than we've been led to believe? In this episode of Addressing Gettysburg, we're joined by Jeffrey J. Harding, licensed battlefield guide, and Jon M. Nese, meteorologist, co-authors of The Weather Gods Curse the Gettysburg Campaign. Their book takes a fresh look at the Gettysburg Campaign through something every soldier experienced but most battlefield narratives don't fully explore: the weather. Heat, humidity, storms, mud, swollen rivers, brutal marches, and suffocating battlefield conditions all shaped what happened before, during, and after the fighting at Gettysburg. Using historic accounts, 19th-century weather observations, and modern meteorological reconstruction, Harding and Nese reveal how extreme conditions affected strategy, endurance, movement, morale, and survival during the campaign. From heat indexes that may have reached staggering levels to the torrential July 4th rains that complicated Lee's retreat, this conversation shows that Gettysburg's weather was not just background scenery. It was an active force in the campaign. Was Gettysburg hot as hell? Yes. But the real story is even more interesting.

Everyone else has a phone. Your child feels left out. And you’re the “mean parent” holding the line. So what now? In this solo Q&A episode of the Happy Families Podcast, I unpack one of the most common parenting dilemmas today: peer pressure, smartphones, and the fear that saying no will push your child away. If your 10–12 year old is desperate to “follow the crowd,” this episode gives you a research-backed, relationship-first roadmap to hold boundaries without losing connection. Because this isn’t really about the phone. It’s about identity, belonging, and trust. KEY POINTS Why friendship becomes central to identity around age 11 The real risk isn’t strict boundaries — it’s feeling dismissed The 3-step framework: Explore. Explain. Empower. What the research says about smartphones, depression, sleep, and obesity The exact script to say when the answer is “not yet” How to say yes to connection while saying no to the device QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “My job is to protect your developing brain — even when that feels unfair.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Study published in the Pediatrics on smartphone use and wellbeing Previous “Doctor’s Desk” episode on screens Submit your parenting question at happyfamilies.com.au ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Explore first. Ask: “Tell me what a phone would give you.” Listen without correcting. Explain calmly. Share the why behind your boundary — not just the rule. Empower together. Brainstorm ways to increase friend connection without a smartphone. Give a future pathway. Revisit the conversation at a clear milestone (age, responsibility, contribution). Stay warm. Boundaries don’t push kids away. Disconnection does. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

During a recent trip to Nepal, I met with Lama Glenn Mullin, spiritual teacher, Tibetologist, and author of over 30 books on Buddhism. Glenn was in Kathmandu to lead a group of pilgrims into tantric retreat and graciously agreed to film with me at various sacred sites before and after their retreat. In this video, Glenn and I travel to Pharping where we explore sacred sites, temples, and meditation caves. We meet a student of Glenn's who performs a fire pūjā after a multi-year cycle of tantric retreat, enter the meditation cave of Padmasambhava, view a self arising Tara image, and encounter guard dogs at the Vajrayoginī temple. Glenn converses with monks, explains the meaning of prayer flags, and traces the esoteric history of the region. … Video version: https://www.guruviking.com/podcast/ep369-esoteric-pharping-lama-glenn-mullin Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'. … Topics include: 00:00 - Intro 00:57 - Pharping as a sacred site 01:32 - Pāṃthiṅpa brothers 02:21 - Fire pūjā footage 03:02 - Esoteric meaning of the fire puja 04:17 - Guru Rinpoche's enlightenment place 04:43 - Other great masters who practiced in Pharping 06:05 - History of Tibetan monasteries in Pharping 09:27 - Ra Lotsawa Tulku's monastery 10:17 - View of the developing valley 10:58 - Self-arisen (rangjung) Tara shrine 11:21 - Ganesh in Buddhism 11:51 - Entering the shrine and viewing the self-arisen Tara 12:26 - About the rangjung phenomenon 13:48 - Lighting the butter lamp 15:56 - Drupthob Rinpoche and persecutions 18:58 - 5 visions of Tsongkhapa 19:16 - Retreat huts 20:00 - About prayer flags 21:16 - Origin of the Dalai Lamas 23:00 - Prayer in Buddhism 24:52 - Evening vs morning kora advice 26:20 - About Thrangu Rinpoche 27:31 - Namo Buddha and the Buddha's sacrifice 28:28 - Towards the Asura cave 30:12 - Guru Rinpoche cave 31:51 - Hand print of Guru Rinpoche 33:00 - Entering the cave 34:04 - Walking and conversations 37:11 - Vajrayoginī temple 38:31 - Kathmandu's Buddhist past 40:25 - Remarks on religious conflict … Previous episodes with Lama Glenn Mullin: - https://www.guruviking.com/search?q=glenn%20mullin

This episode explores the part that goes numb, zones out, and checks out when things get hard, and what it means that so much eating happens while we're not fully there. I draw on my own experience of surfacing mid-binge and not knowing where I'd been, and look at why eating on autopilot makes complete sense as a protective strategy, and what it actually takes to start building enough safety to stay present.What You'll Discover:Why eating on autopilot and zoning out around food aren't about willpower and what the part doing the checking out is actually protecting you fromWhy the checking out tends to get harder to interrupt over time and what it costs you to keep not being thereWhat the part that checks out actually needs and why trying to force yourself to stay present tends to make it worseWhy the most useful moment isn't when you checked out and everything to do with what was happening right beforeIf you've ever found yourself coming back to awareness mid-binge and genuinely not knowing how you got there, this episode is for you.Previous episodes referenced:The Part of You That HidesUnderstanding the Part of You That Wants to Binge (Part 1)If you would like to explore getting support with your eating challenges, schedule a Breakthrough Call today.Want to know why you struggle with food and what to do next?

Resource mentioned in the show: https://www.solvehighered.com/higher-ed-glossary Jaime Hunt welcomes a special guest, Dave Hunt, to celebrate his new role as the Senior Strategic Advisor for AI Enrollment Marketing and Brand at Solve Higher Ed. The conversation moves beyond the typical discussion of marketing tactics to explore the philosophy of professional growth and strategic leadership within higher education. Jaime and Dave unpack the common misconception that career success is solely defined by linear, upward movement on a corporate ladder. Instead, they champion the value of the lateral move. They argue that the most successful higher ed professionals are those who prioritize expanding their portfolio of skills over seeking new titles. By intentionally seeking roles that expose them to different departments—such as academic affairs, digital strategy, and creative operations—professionals can build the range necessary to see the university as a fully integrated ecosystem rather than a series of isolated silos. This is the essence of the T-shaped professional: deep expertise in one area coupled with a broad, empathetic understanding of how every department contributes to enrollment outcomes. Guest Name: Dave Hunt, Senior Strategic Advisor for AI, Enrollment Marketing and Brand, Solve Higher Ed Marketing Guest Social: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dave-hunt-a343048/ Guest Bio: Dave Hunt serves as Solve Higher Ed's senior strategic advisor for enrollment marketing and brand. With 18 years of experience in higher education, Dave brings a depth of expertise in enrollment marketing, digital strategy, brand management, reputation building and alumni communications. His career has focused on helping colleges and universities reach prospective students more effectively, differentiate academic programs in competitive markets and connect brand strategy to enrollment outcomes. Most recently, Dave served as Executive Director of Strategic Brand and Enrollment Marketing at Old Dominion University's ODUGlobal, where he led a team responsible for marketing online graduate and undergraduate programs. His portfolio included enrollment marketing, digital marketing, creative services, branding, content strategy and social media, giving him direct experience managing the full ecosystem of modern enrollment-focused marketing.  Prior to joining ODUGlobal, Dave was the inaugural Director of Strategic Marketing and Communications Miami University's Miami Online. There, he built the marketing operations for a new and expanding online education portfolio from the ground up, with a focus on enrollment growth, lead generation, program positioning, digital marketing and prospective student engagement. At Wake Forest University, Dave worked within the School of Business in a role focused on marketing graduate business programs and supporting the school's branding, rankings and reputation-building efforts. That experience gave him a strong understanding of how academic reputation, program differentiation, rankings strategy and prospective student communications intersect in highly competitive markets. Previous higher ed positions included serving as Director of Alumni Communications for Virginia Tech and as a graphic designer for Lawrence University. Dave holds a bachelor's degree in Liberal Studies and a master's degree in Marketing. He lives in Coastal Virginia with his wife and their surprisingly social tortoise. - - - -Connect With Our Host:Jaime Hunthttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jaimehunt/https://twitter.com/JaimeHuntIMCAbout The Enrollify Podcast Network:Confessions of a Higher Ed CMO is a part of the Enrollify Podcast Network.

Is it okay for followers of Jesus to disagree? Why did Paul and Barnabas disagree? How can we face disagreement with another follower of Jesus in a way that honors them and God? In this episode, Emma Dotter unpacks Acts 15:36-41 and answers the question, “How do we disagree in a way that protects both truth and love?” She gives listeners questions to consider when walking through disagreement with another believer and how to invite God into it. // ADDITIONAL VERSES MENTIONED: Acts 13: 13; Colossians 4: 10; James 1 // RELATED JOIN THE JOURNEY EPISODES:  “S4:263 – Introduction to the book of Acts” (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...)   “S4:269 – Acts 15-17” (https://open.spotify.com/episode/3NShJvbx2EPozwMwxJq2Hm?si=98ac89d64476429c)   “Episode 204: Acts 15” (https://open.spotify.com/episode/1C4nPaR3RZjQlAN7nYyAX6?si=2d16480ac3b34d66) // WHAT IS JOIN THE JOURNEY? Join The Journey is a realistic daily Bible reading plan that helps followers of Jesus at Watermark Community Church and beyond enjoy abiding in Jesus together.

Then, for the next six days, we'll return to the same passage with fresh focus, exploring insights about who God is and how we can enjoy him more deeply. Monday through Saturday, we'll approach the same passage from a different perspective each day—whether observation, interpretation, prayer, or another spiritual practice—to gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for God's Word. Then, watch or listen to the video podcast to tackle the week's toughest verses and discover key historical, theological, and practical insights. Daily Bible lessons for adults: https://jointhejourney.com Daily Bible lessons for parents and families: https://jointhejourney.com/jr Weekly Bible podcast for kids: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...  // MORE RESOURCES FROM JOIN THE JOURNEY:  Digital Bible study resources: https://jointhejourney.com/resources Previous years' print curriculum: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Waterma...
