The state of Minnesota is hiring a third-party auditor to look for fraud in 14 Medicaid programs. These programs are intended to provide housing and care for people with disabilities and severe mental illnesses. Gov. Tim Walz announced Wednesday the state will temporarily stop paying providers of these services while the auditor, Optum, analyzes billing. A statement from the governor's office said this pause will last 90 days, but's not clear when it will begin. Josh Berg is director of Minnesota services and strategic growth for nonprofit Accessible Space, Inc. He's also on the board of directors of Association of Residential Resources in Minnesota, which lobbies on behalf of disability service providers. He spoke to MPR News host Nina Moini about how this pause could impact how providers can care for people with disabilities and severe mental health illnesses.

Daily Dose of Hope October 20, 2025 Scripture - John 8:12-59 Prayer: Holy God, We pause before you. We become still, recognizing that you are God. You are Creator, you are Provider, you are Sustainer. Thank you, Lord. We repent for how we have failed you. We repent for our pride, our anger, our bitterness, our flawed view of others. We repent for not putting you first. Forgive us, Lord. We are broken and sinful people. Lord, use us anyway. We pray that you can lead us to a place of healing and peace so that we can then be useful to your Kingdom. Help us be your servants, open to your leading and direction. We are yours. We belong to you. In Your Name, Amen. Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional and podcast that complements the Bible reading plan at New Hope Church in Brandon, Florida. As most of you know, we are currently doing a deep dive into the Gospels and Acts. Today, we finish up John 8. This chapter is an interesting and complex set of narratives about Jesus' identity. In verses 12-30, Jesus attempts, unsuccessfully, to explain that he does not need the two witnesses required by the Law in any testimony because he already has them: his own and the Father's. To the Jews, this would have been impossible. No one could testify on their own behalf. Afterall, the Law, to ensure fairness and objectivity, required at least two witnesses. But let us not forget that the gospel is not necessarily historical but theological. We are reading the account of an early Jewish-Christian community engaged in heavy theological debate with the synagogue, a sort of family feud if you consider that everyone here is Jewish. Beginning in verse 31, John states Jesus is speaking to Jews who had believed in him. I think the tense is important here. These were once followers of Jesus but now they are not. Jesus tells them that if they hold to his teachings, they are his disciples. And Jesus continues to say that it is then that they will know the truth and the truth will set them free. But this gets them all confused. But why in the world would they need to be set free? They are Abraham's descendants and they have never been enslaved. Jesus explains that they are, in fact, slaves to sin. Keep in mind, that this is a group who thinks they will go to heaven simply because of their blood line. They are Jews, they are God's chosen people. How they think and behave is far less important than to whom they are related. And yet, Jesus pushes up against this. As the text continues, in verses 37-59, Jesus and the Pharisees and other Jewish authorities throw accusations at each other. Jesus says they are being children of the devil; they accuse him of being demon-possessed and a Samaritan. One can hardly think of a worse situation. No one was listening to one another. But John is making a point. He is leading up to Jesus saying in v. 58, Before Abraham was, I am. Of course, he is speaking of himself using the Biblical way of referring to God. He is saying that he is God. This escalates things. The Jews begin to pick up stones to begin to throw at him but he slips away. Jesus is God. Blessings, Pastor Vicki

God is our provider. He can meet our every need. Whether it be material, tangible, or practical, or it be a talent, skill, or character trait, God can give us what we need, when we need it.

Kommerzielle VPN-Anbieter wie Bitdefender Premium VPN, ExpressVPN, hide.me VPN, IVPN, Mullvad VPN, NordVPN, Proton VPN, TunnelBear und Windscribe versprechen, ihre Kunden für ein paar Euro im Monat vor quasi allen Bedrohungen des Internets zu schützen. Und nebenher kann man dadrüber anonym surfen, ausländische Streamingdienste nutzen oder, wenn man selbst im Ausland ist, die deutschen Abos und Mediatheken gucken. Einiges davon stimmt, anderes, naja, nur so halb. Und manches kriegt ihr auch mit einem eigenen VPN gelöst, was ja viele Router direkt anbieten. Im Podcast erläutert c't-Redakteur Keywan Tonekaboni die Vor- und Nachteile der kommerziellen VPNs. Die VPNs versprechen Sicherheit, wobei vor allem Sicherheit gegenüber dem Provider – also der Internetanbieter oder der Beitreiber etwa des Hotel-, Café- oder Zug-WLANs – gemeint ist. Sie versprechen Anonymität, was wiederum eher gegenüber der Betreiber der Websites gilt, die man besucht. Sie versprechen, das Geofencing einiger Dienstanbieter zu umgehen – was tatsächlich gut funktioniert. Und sie versprechen, bei Behördenanfragen weniger oder keine Daten herauszurücken, was ein etwas komplizierteres Gebiet ist. Ein Nebeneffekt der VPNs sind zudem Werbeblocker. Als Alternativen kommen vor allem selbst aufgesetzte VPNs in Frage. Wir erklären, für welche der Anwendungen das hilft und für welche nicht. Und wann und wovor vielleicht weitere Dienste wie TOR oder spezielle DNS-Server sogar besser als ein VPN schützen.

In his message on “Do Not Steal,” Pastor Will Ford explains that this commandment is about more than taking possessions—it's about loving and trusting God completely. People often steal out of fear, greed, or a lack of faith in God's provision, but true freedom comes from believing He is our Provider. Stealing can also mean robbing others of dignity, time, or trust—and even robbing God of worship. When we withhold praise or offer half-hearted worship, we align with the enemy, the first thief. Through passionate, wholehearted worship, we reclaim what's been stolen—God's presence, joy, and blessing. Ultimately, Pastor Will reminds us that we've all been forgiven much, and our response should be radical love and gratitude that gives God all the glory.

There is some angst in some media circles at the moment over funding for Māori TV news. A couple of programmes are facing some sort of cut, or cancellation, or realignment because of changes in the way money is handed out from the Māori funding agency. This is not new. Media in this country post-Covid has gone through a fairly major overhaul with many a casualty and a pile of significant change. The reality for media that is funded by the state is you are beholden to the purveyor of the purse string. Under the Labour Government, the amount of money handed out to media was ridiculous. The trouble with that sort of largesse is it can never last. Fill your boots while you can, because as sure as night follows day, reality, or reckoning, will come. In terms of Māori news programmes, here is the part that eludes me: how is it, as we have seen this past week, that all we ever get when funding gets adjusted is a complaint-athon? All we hear is people bemoaning their lot and fearing change. Here is the solution: if these programmes are of value, as they claim they are, what is stopping, and what has ever stopped them, from going to the commercial sector to get advertising or sponsorship support? Why is the Government i.e. the taxpayer, the only source of income? If the Māori news programmes are so valuable, then where is the Māori economy? I have read any number of times that the Māori economy is booming. There are any number of success stories in the Māori economy. It is a growth sector, and it is, by some reports, booming. Investment has led to expansion, reinvestment and riches - where are they? Why aren't they advertising or sponsoring these Māori products? Can they not see the synergies? How is it the connection has not been made? Business is always looking for advertising or marketing outlets. Why are the makers, producers and hosts of these programmes not looking to the commercial sector for an ongoing and stable level of support? Why is the taxpayer the sole provider of their paychecks?

Everything in our lives must rest on this truth: Jehovah Jireh, the One who foresees and provides, watches over us and is personally involved in every detail of our lives.Genesis 3:21Genesis 22:1-8Pastor Tope teaches that Jehovah Jireh is not just a name but both a posture and a mindset - a posture of rest and a mindset of unshakable trust that, no matter what happens, God will come through for you.Matthew 6:26 (MSG)Recognizing what Jireh means in our lives is like discovering a lighthouse in a turbulent sea - a constant reminder that guidance and provision are always within reach, even when we can't see the shoreline. God will always make a way, no matter the situation. He never fails.1 Kings 17:1-4God's provision begins when we are willing to let go of our own way. What God desires for us is far greater than what we desire for ourselves. Anything placed in God's hands multiplies.What are the steps to seeing God as your provider?- Seek the Lord in your need.- Know that the Lord will never lead you astray.- Step out in faith, just believe, and read Bible verses about provision.- Remember God's provision in the past.- Praise/Worship the Lord.- Follow the instructions that the Lord gives you.- Expect to see Jehovah Jireh.- To truly follow God, we must have crazy faith - the kind Abraham and David displayed in Scripture.Pastor Tope concludes this teaching with a powerful prayer session, declaring God as our Provider and presenting our desires before Him in faith.——ABOUT THE NEWWe are a people of love and excellence who are result-oriented, spirit-led, word-rooted, prayer-driven, and kingdom-conscious. Led by Pst. Shola Okodugha, we are on a divine assignment to equip and raise men; to release people from strongholds that have stifled them from taking their rightful places, and to give young people an avenue for their God-given gifts to find expression.

In this episode, I'm sharing one of the most personal journeys I've ever shared: the path from having a C-section with my second baby to experiencing a home birth with my third, our sweet Sofia Kate McCravy. Just seven months after my C-section, I found myself pregnant again, facing a decision I never expected to make so soon: Would I try for a VBAC, schedule a repeat C-section, or try for the home birth I had always quietly longed for (but felt unlikely)?I walk you through the ups and downs of that decision-making process (and yes, there's a business lesson in here), from being told “no” by multiple midwives, sitting in doctor's offices feeling dismissed and even shamed, and ultimately learning how to advocate for myself and dig into the research around VBACs (vaginal birth after cesarean) and HBACs (home birth after cesarean). I also share how journaling, prayer, and conversations with supportive providers helped me process both my fears and my desires. And I'll tell you about the persistence it took (17 inquiries later!) to find the right midwife who believed in me and my ability to have this birth.If you're curious about home birth, considering a VBAC, or simply love hearing honest, real birth experiences, I hope my journey encourages you. And if you're a business listener who found this episode in your feed, stick around. You'll be surprised at how many lessons from pregnancy and birth apply directly to entrepreneurship, resilience, and trusting your instincts.Links Mentioned:- Read the full shownotes: https://elizabethmccravy.com/318- Home birth resource guide (with links): https://elizabethmccravy.com/home-birth-resource-guide-vbac-hbac/- Shop our Showit Website Templates (use code BBPODCAST for 10% off!): https://elizabethmccravy.com/showit-website-templates/  - Join me inside the Podcast Success Blueprint: https://elizabethmccravy.com/psb - Join me inside Booked Out Designer: https://elizabethmccravy.com/bod  - Want the insider scoop?

Burnout recovery starts with identity. If success feels empty or you fear it's too late to grow, this episode reveals why expansion isn't arrogance—it's alignment. Discover the root-level recalibration that restores clarity and courage.Do you ever wonder if it's too late to make a change—or fear you'll be too much if you step into the expansion you feel called to? High-capacity humans often hit this hidden ceiling, not in opportunity, but in permission.This episode of The Recalibration speaks directly into that quiet inner dialogue: Did I miss my window? Who am I to do this? Drawing on the story of Colonel Sanders, who franchised Kentucky Fried Chicken at 65 after more than a thousand rejections, Julie Holly reframes the cultural script of “too late.”You'll discover how Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) dismantles outdated roles like Prover, Performer, Provider, and Perfectionist—the very identities that keep leaders stuck in role confusion, decision fatigue, and spiritual exhaustion. Neuroscience confirms what faith reveals: when you recalibrate identity, the nervous system learns that newness doesn't equal danger—it equals alignment. That's when expansion shifts from fear to fruit.Unlike surface-level productivity tactics or mindset hacks, ILR is the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective. Expansion isn't about proving your worth; it's about receiving the permission that was already yours—and realizing the cost of staying small is too high, not just for you but for those you're called to serve.Today's Micro RecalibrationWhere have I been telling myself it's too late to grow?What if the opposite is true—that right now is exactly on time?As a leader, how might my willingness to expand unlock permission for those around me?If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Health insurance or health cost-sharing—which is the better fit for your family? With open enrollment upon us, it's the perfect moment to explore your choices. Joining me today is Lauren Gajdek to highlight the key differences between health insurance and health cost-sharing.Lauren Gajdek is the Senior Director of External Affairs at Christian Healthcare Ministries (CHM), an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Landscape of Traditional Health InsuranceOpen enrollment season is right around the corner—running from November 1 through January 15, 2026. For most people, that means navigating the world of traditional health insurance. These plans typically require you to select doctors and specialists within a designated provider network, often necessitating referrals or pre-authorization before receiving care.While insurance companies provide coverage, their structure can come at a high cost. Premiums and deductibles are often steep, and because insurers operate for profit, patient care and affordability don't always align. For many families, this creates a significant financial burden.How Health Cost Sharing Is DifferentHealth cost-sharing ministries, such as CHM, offer a unique alternative. The end result is the same—your medical bills are taken care of—but the process looks very different.No provider networks: Members are free to choose their own doctors and hospitals.Nonprofit model: Unlike insurance companies, CHM is a ministry. Members send in a set monthly contribution, which is pooled together to reimburse medical costs.Community approach: Instead of being absorbed into a bureaucratic system, members know that their contributions directly help fellow believers in need.Since its founding, CHM has facilitated over $10 billion in shared medical bills.How Does Health Cost-Sharing Work?Here's how it works for a typical family:Choose your provider. Members can see any doctor or hospital as long as the treatment fits CHM's guidelines.Identify as self-pay. This allows members to receive significant discounts often, sometimes as high as 40%.Submit bills to CHM. The ministry coordinates with providers as needed. In the meantime, members may set up a temporary payment plan until reimbursement arrives.The process is straightforward, designed to give families peace of mind while also offering flexibility and savings.What to Keep in Mind During Open EnrollmentWhen weighing your options, consider more than just the monthly premium. Ask:How much am I actually paying out-of-pocket after deductibles, co-pays, and coinsurance?Will my coverage travel with me if I go out of state—or out of the country?With CHM, members don't face co-pays or coinsurance, and qualifying medical bills are shared 100% according to ministry guidelines. Additionally, portability makes it an appealing option for families who want flexibility, regardless of where life takes them.A Biblical Approach to HealthcareAt its core, CHM is more than a healthcare solution—it's a ministry. Members not only share medical expenses but also pray for one another and receive prayer support in return. Every monthly contribution is a gift that directly helps another member in need.CHM reflects biblical principles of bearing one another's burdens while providing a practical, affordable path to healthcare.To explore whether health cost sharing is right for your family this open enrollment season, visit CHMinistries.org/Faith.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm refinancing my home and am unsure whether I should roll the closing costs into the new loan or pay them from my investments or retirement accounts. Rolling them into the loan would lower my monthly payment, but is that the wisest choice financially—and biblically?Could you explain where the funds actually come from with a reverse mortgage, who technically owns the home in this arrangement, and whether the FHA backs the loan?My wife and I recently took a required minimum distribution from her IRA and made a qualified charitable distribution to our church.

Have you ever faced a decision that left you feeling uncertain about which way to go? In today's prayer and devotional, Scripture reminds us that our steps are directed by the Lord, even when we can’t fully see or understand His plan. Christine Perry shares a personal story of feeling the Lord’s nudge to step away from her current path without knowing what would come next. What began as confusion and hesitation became a testimony of God’s perfect provision. Where Christine only saw uncertainty, God had already prepared opportunities for work, housing, and growth that she never could have orchestrated on her own. The truth is, our perspective is limited—we see only what’s right in front of us. God, however, sees the full picture. Trusting Him with our decisions means surrendering our desire for total control and stepping forward in faith, even when the path feels unclear. His direction may not always align with our original plans, but His way is always better. Today's Bible Reading "A man's steps are of the Lord; How then can a man understand his own way?" – Proverbs 20:24 (NKJV) Key Takeaways God often asks us to take the first step before revealing the next. Our plans may fall through, but God’s purposes never fail. Trusting His direction requires faith beyond what we can see. God’s provision and timing are always perfect, even when the process feels uncertain. Let’s Pray Together Lord, thank You for directing my steps, even when I don’t understand the way forward. Help me to trust Your wisdom and surrender my plans to You. Thank You for being my Shepherd, Provider, and Guide. Teach me to walk in faith, believing that Your direction is always good. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
