The Book of Malachi — a 10-episode verse-by-verse study from Beth Studies.Episode 10 — Prone to wander, the coming of Elijah, and "curse or Christ" — Malachi 4:4-6-------------------------Support us today to create more content!www.sharing-bread.com/donateEverything made up to this point has been done without donors, but now with your support we can multiply your giving to create unimaginable amounts of quality content to inspire, teach, and bring God's word into every household.------------------------Malachi is the last voice God's people will hear from heaven for four hundredyears. The next will be John the Baptist's. This minor prophet — whose namemeans "my messenger" — was sent to a remnant grown smug and skeptical:corrupt priests offering blemished sacrifices, men callously divorcing thewives of their youth, a people who had relegated their faith to mereformalism. Yet before God rebukes them, he opens with love: "I have lovedyou, says the Lord."Across ten episodes we walk the whole book — the seven challenges and sevenanswers, the call to give God our best, the warning to leaders, "I hatedivorce," the promise to send the messenger, the refiner's fire, theinvitation to "test me" in our giving, the scroll of remembrance, and theclosing prophecy of the Son of righteousness who will rise with healing inhis wings.Malachi ends with a warning. The New Testament opens with the Messenger.The Son of righteousness has come.▸ Start with Episode 1 for the introduction, or jump to any episode▸ Subscribe so you don't miss new studies▸ Share with a friend who would be encouraged----------00:00 Introduction00:30 Prone to wander01:24 Remember, remember, remember03:48 The coming of Elijah05:15 Curse or Christ06:00 Has the light shone?06:48 Closing prayer----------#BookOfMalachi #BibleStudy #BethStudies #MinorProphets #SonOfRighteousness

Have you ever asked for help, set a reasonable boundary, or admitted that you could not take on one more thing, and then immediately wanted to take it back?You may replay the conversation, question your tone, draft an apology, or feel compelled to prove that you can still handle everything. That uncomfortable morning-after feeling has a name: the vulnerability hangover.In this bonus episode, SaCola explores why honest self-advocacy can leave capable women feeling exposed and anxious, and how to stay with the discomfort without retreating, over-explaining, or abandoning a boundary that was right for you.In This Episode, You'll Hear• Why asking for support can feel more threatening than continuing to carry too much.• How the “strong one” identity can make vulnerability feel unsafe.• Why discomfort after an honest conversation does not automatically mean you made the wrong decision.• How to tell the difference between repairing a real problem and escaping the discomfort of being seen.• A practical way to use the N in the PRONE to Power framework: Navigate Your Mindset.• What to do before sending the “never mind, I've got it” message.Key TakeawayDiscomfort does not automatically mean you made a mistake.

"Prone to Wander" (Luke 22:54-62) by Edgington EPC
On this episode of the Foil Life Podcast, Luc Moore sits down with Robert Ross (Ecuador Foil), Brazilian pro Mizo, and foil-drive specialist Paul to talk about the upcoming March retreat in Ecuador.They recap the strong May camp, the decision to bring two high-level coaches together, and what riders can expect from an open-window format across the first two weeks of March. The conversation covers coaching approaches for prone, tow-boogie, foil drive, and SUP foil; how the Ecuador spots work for different levels; gear choices and setups; the family-friendly logistics in Montañita; and how the Ecuador experience differs from the more intense, wave-focused Chicama camps Paul and Mizo are running in September and October.Episode Highlights:- Open-window March retreat (first two weeks) with flexible 7-night stays — Mizo committed for the full period, Paul aiming for at least a week (and potentially the whole thing)- Multiple disciplines on offer every day: prone, tow-boogie, foil drive, SUP foil, with boat support outside the reef and the option to add a second boat- Coaching styles: Mizo's progression path for riders coming from wing/boat backgrounds into prone (whitewater starts, weight forward, board choice), and Paul's foil-drive approach that works from complete beginners to advanced aerials and strapped riding- Gear talk: F1 Skate 850 as a daily driver, the new Sushi (680/740), Armstrong 690 MK2 and UHAs, Code 700X, upcoming KT Solace/Halo, and why the mini-pod + sport batteries have changed the foil-drive feel- Foot-strap positioning, the challenges of paddling with straps, and how foil drive makes strapped riding far more practical- Ecuador logistics: Montañita base (2 hours from Guayaquil), airport pickups, single-occupancy rooms/villas, private retreat pool area, family-friendly pricing, daily long-lens video, and consistent waist-to-double-overhead waves- Chicama contrast: long, predictable lefts, the intensity of wave time, tow/Zodiac logistics, wing vs. parawing vs. foil-drive options, and why the two destinations feel very different- Bonus: Mizo's upcoming Voyager SUP-foil downwind camp in Ceará, Brazil (early September) and the reliable 30-knot conditions thereA practical, high-energy conversation packed with coaching insight, gear real-talk, and clear details for anyone considering a multi-discipline foil trip to Ecuador (or Chicama).Stay tuned for more great episodes, including the return of additional guests and continued adventures.To book the Ecuador retreat send us a DM on Instagram or send us an email: info@foillifepodcast.com
I've known Jack Bark since he was a little kid; when he would be onboard his dad's escort boat during the Catalina Classic Paddleboard Race. Jack is one of the four children of paddling icon and master board builder, Joe Bark; so he's been immersed in the paddling world since birth. It is definitely in his blood. I've been around to watch him go from a young gun to becoming one of the most accomplished prone paddling athletes of his generation. The apple has not fallen far from the tree. Jack shares the stories of growing up in the awesome Bark household; surfing, fishing, spearfishing, paddling, growing up on boats and in the water from a very young age. If you know the Barks, you know Jack is part of paddling royalty; and the coolest, most inclusive and humble people you'll ever meet. Jack has established himself as one of the world's premier prone paddling athletes and has earned multiple prone paddling championship titles in the sport's most prestigious races. With wins in the Molokai to Oahu race (M2O) he went on to a defining competitive achievement in 2024, when he won the Catalina Classic Paddleboard Race and broke the 25 year long course record. The same year his sister Emily won it. Amazing. With this win he became the first person ever to complete the crossing in under five hours. If you've ever paddled the Catalina Classic, or crossed the Catalina channel on a prone paddleboard you know just how fast that is. Still in his early 30's, Jack is coming up on his 15th Catalina Classic, which is already an incredible accomplishment. It's a family affair as all of the siblings have paddled this iconic race. We'll have to wait and see if Jack pursues his dad's record of completing 38 Classics. You never know… and I would not be surprised. On top of all of this Jack has a long list of extreme endurance, adventure paddles and runs; and he shares the stories, and his why, in this interview. On top of the paddling, Jack is a firefighter, a board builder, a husband (to an amazing waterwoman) and a new dad. It's a heck of a life, and a hell of a story… and it's really just starting. 0:00 – Introducing Jack Bark 6:45 – Jack's Background & Early Life 14:10 – Discovering His Passion & Direction 21:35 – Early Challenges & Defining Experiences 29:05 – Career Turning Points & New Opportunities 36:40 – Overcoming Setbacks & Difficult Moments 44:20 – Discipline, Preparation & Personal Growth 52:05 – Memorable Stories From the Journey 59:50 – Relationships, Community & Mentorship 1:07:35 – Lessons Learned Through Experience 1:16:10 – Future Goals & What Comes Next 1:26:25 – Final Reflections & Closing Thoughts
Ryan and Evan are on the mic for a deep dive into one of fantasy hockey's trickiest questions: are injuries actually predictable, or are we just building narratives after the fact?They break down the difference between chronic injury concerns and plain bad luck, how much weight fantasy managers should put on recent games played, and why IR+ can completely change the value equation by allowing you to replace injured production from the waiver wire.Then they put the theory to the test with some of fantasy hockey's biggest injury-risk names, including Jack Hughes, Jack Eichel, Auston Matthews, Leon Draisaitl, Mark Stone, Matthew Tkachuk, Shea Theodore and Dylan Holloway. Which players have legitimate recurring concerns? Which injury histories are mostly a collection of unrelated events? And where is the market potentially discounting players too heavily because of the “injury-prone” label?It's data, history and risk — with the injury narrative put under the microscope.

The Giants starting QB Jaxson Dart joined Craig and Big Mac live from training camp!
Judges 20–21 teaches us that rejecting God's rule does not make us free to rule ourselves, but leaves us under the enslaving reign of sin. In a world where we want the freedom to determine what is right in our own eyes, Jesus Christ came as the true and better King who gave his life to set us free from sin's rule, so that we might discover true freedom by bending the knee to him.
Hebrews 11:32–12:2 gives hope to weak and weary people whose hearts are prone to wander. Because Jesus is the founder and perfecter of our faith, we can lay aside every weight and sin, run with endurance, and fix our eyes on him who will bring us to the end.

The Porch explores the theme of spiritual wandering, drawing parallels between the biblical imagery of sheep and believers who stray from their faith. It illustrates how believers are prone to wander, often enticed by worldly desires like the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. The faithful can fall but are always welcomed back by God's grace. The Good Shepherd seeks out and restores those who are lost, underscoring His unconditional love and commitment to His people.

Episode Summary:In this powerful bonus episode, SaCola Lehr tackles the pervasive "Guilt of the Pause", the feeling that rest must be earned, not simply taken. She challenges the "rise and grind" mentality, revealing how it sabotages our brilliance and leads to burnout. SaCola shares a personal origin story of hitting a wall due to relentless striving and introduces her Recharge & Rise Framework, a focused application of the PRONE to Power framework. This episode empowers listeners to dismantle guilt, embrace intentional pauses, and understand that rest is a non-negotiable requirement for sustained success and well-being.Key Takeaways:• The Productivity Prison: Understanding how societal conditioning ties our worth to our output, leading to guilt when we pause.• Rest as Fuel, Not Reward: Shifting the mindset that rest is something to be earned after depletion, rather than essential for optimal function.• The Recharge & Rise Framework: A five-step process to intentionally integrate rest:Recognize Rest as Fuel, Not Reward (P - Priorities): Proactively schedule rest.Establish Non-Negotiable Pause Pockets (O - Organized): Protect scheduled times for intentional pauses.Communicate Your "Why" (N - Navigating Boundaries): Articulate the purpose and benefit of your rest.Embrace Imperfection (E - Empowerment): Recognize that perfection is an illusion; a rested you is a more effective you.Reframe "Laziness" as "Strategic Recovery" (R - Rejuvenation): View rest as an investment in long-term capacity.Harmony Hacks (Actionable Steps):Mindset Shift: Consciously challenge the belief that you must earn rest. Remind yourself: "My rest is required, not rewarded."Schedule a Micro-Pause: Identify one 15-minute non-negotiable pause in your day this week. Treat it like a critical meeting.Practice Your "Why": The next time you feel guilty about resting, articulate to yourself (or a trusted friend) why this rest is essential for your well-being and effectiveness.Quote of the Episode:"My rest is required, not rewarded. It's time to reclaim your right to pause, without the guilt."Resources Mentioned:• Harmony Hustle for Women: Master the Art of Thriving in Life and Career• PRONE to Power Framework• The American Institute of Stress: https://www.stress.org/workplace-stress• Brown, B.

Prone to Wander XX: Doing Religion in Your Own Eyes (Judges 17:1-13) Senior Pastor Andrew Kim
Dan Mann makes surfboards for some of the best surfers on the planet; and for us normal humans. Dan has been shaping boards for over 30 years and in the last year he's been showcased through a number of surf programs that highlight the best and most celebrated surfers riding boards that have been made for them by the most accomplished board builders, but under the veil of anonymity. In the last two of these stealth contests, the only two he's been in, Dan has made it to the podium. He's won one and got second in the other; against the best and most recognized shapers in the game. Not a fluke. The two surfers? One happened to be the GOAT, 11 time world champion, Kelly Slater and the other is Australian super style master Ethan Ewing; with some of the best surfing I've ever seen. With more than 15,000 hand-shaped boards and tens of thousands more built from his designs, Dan has quietly become one of the most influential board designers of the modern era. And he's as passionate about shaping today as he's ever been. But this conversation is about much more than surfboards. I've known Dan since the 1990s, and he's always done things his own way. He's an exceptional surfer (who, believe it or not, only rides frontside… aka switch stance), a world-class prone paddler and Catalina Classic winner, and the founder of The Loop Race which is one of Southern California's iconic paddleboard races in San Diego. Dan has an authentic and passionate way of seeing the world and when you hear about the mentors and icons he's spent time with, you start to understand where some of it comes from. Dan shares the stories and lessons he's picked up along the way… which go far beyond surfing. This is a conversation about craftsmanship, competition, creativity, the ocean, doing hard things, finding your own “seam;” ultimately it's Dan's full story… which is way bigger than surf. 0:00 – Introducing Dan Mann & His Journey 4:10 – Early Life & Discovering His Passion 10:05 – Taking Risks & Following Purpose 16:20 – Overcoming Challenges & Setbacks 23:00 – Lessons That Changed His Perspective 30:15 – Building Meaningful Relationships 37:40 – Staying Motivated Through Difficult Seasons 45:10 – Finding Balance Between Work & Life 52:30 – Advice for Those Still Finding Their Path 1:00:20 – Looking Ahead & Future Goals 1:16:45 – Final Reflections & Life Lessons 1:27:30 – Closing Thoughts & Outro

ike a loving shepherd who keeps His sheep close, God gently redirects us when we begin drifting toward temptation, unhealthy desires, or paths that lead to disappointment. While His boundaries can sometimes feel frustrating, they are expressions of His love. He sees dangers we cannot see and lovingly guides us back to the path that leads to life and lasting joy. When we experience delays, closed doors, or the gentle conviction of the Holy Spirit, we can trust that God is not withholding good from us. Instead, He is protecting us and inviting us to remain close to Him, where we discover security, purpose, and the fullness of His presence. Highlights: God's guidance is an expression of His love and protection, not punishment. Psalm 16 reminds us that true joy and fulfillment are found in God's presence. God often redirects us when we begin wandering toward temptation or unhealthy desires. Delays, closed doors, and conviction can be evidence of God's loving care. Staying close to God allows us to experience His peace, wisdom, and lasting joy. We can trust that God's boundaries are always for our eternal good, even when we don't understand them. Join the Conversation Have you ever looked back and realized God was protecting you through a closed door, delay, or unexpected change in direction?

Full Transcript Below: When You’re Prone to Wander By Cindi McMenamin Bible Reading:“You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore” (Psalm 16:11 ESV). I recently learned something about myself—and my Savior—from watching my black cat, Mowgli. Each morning, I take Mowgli out on the patio with me so we can enjoy the cool of the morning. Mowgli has to be on a leash every time he’s outside, even if I’m right next to him, because he is afraid of other people and sounds he can’t identify. When he becomes frightened or when he starts to wander and his leash wraps around something and he suddenly feels restrained, he will panic, struggle out of his harness, and try to run away. For the most part, Mowgli and I enjoy peaceful mornings outside together as I work on my laptop and he sits contentedly on the patio, leash securely attached. When he tries to get a little further away from me to explore, I will say, “Not too far, Mowgli” and tug on his leash. But now and then, when a hummingbird swoops in low to tease him, or when a critter is rustling in the leaves nearby, he will lunge forward, panic at his sense of restraint, and wiggle quickly out of his harness and make a run for his potential kill. After I catch him, he’s very angry to be restrained. I bring him back inside and tell him firmly, “No going outside again if you can’t stay in your harness.” Today I found myself saying to him, after he was back inside and whining that he couldn’t go out again, “Why can’t you stay in your harness? Don’t you know I want to keep you close so I can keep you safe?” Oh, how God must want to tether my heart to Him to keep me safe as well. In Psalm 16, David—who knew what it was like to be hunted like a wild animal, to run for his life from King Saul, who wanted him dead—said this about the security of being tethered closely to his God: “You make known to me the path of life” (in other words, “You know how to keep me safe and alive). And David sang, “In your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” David was saying,” I am not only safe and secure in Your presence, but I am full of joy when I’m close to You, and I’m able to experience eternal pleasures.” Intersecting Faith & Life: How often have I tried to wander too far from God’s instruction, too close to temptation, and too close to something I might start loving more than Him, and He gently pulls me back to His side? How often has my Lord seen me try to escape the harness of His love and pursue something that will never satisfy? Certainly, He wants to keep me close to His side so I will be content and can enjoy life with Him. When have you sensed God restraining you as you started to wander from Him? What might God be protecting you from in the disappointments and delays you are experiencing? Can you, too, see how God’s restraints on us—what He keeps us from, what He won’t allow us to have or go near—are not restraints to punish us or make our lives miserable? He knows what’s best for you and me, and He wants to keep us close so we are not only safe, but filled with joy at being near His presence. When you sense that gentle nudge backward, that might feel frustrating because you can’t get ahead to what you want, will you trust that God knows exactly what He’s allowing—and not allowing—for your eternal best and for your pleasures forevermore, not just temporarily. Lord, Your Word says in Your presence is abundant joy. Why would I ever want to wander? Keep me close to Your side, ever bound to You so that I can experience Your very best for me and enjoy Your company like no other.
