Have you ever walked through a season that felt uncomfortable or confusing, where things you once relied on began to fall away?In this episode, I am joined by Landry Bowers as we talk about spiritual pruning and why it is not a punishment, but a loving part of how God grows us. Just like a gardener prunes a plant so it can thrive, God removes what no longer serves us to make room for deeper growth and greater blessing.We look at biblical examples, including the Israelites' journey, to remind us that discomfort often comes before breakthrough and that trusting God in pruning seasons is essential to our faith.If you are in a season where things feel stretched, uncertain, or hard to understand, this conversation will encourage you to trust that God is working, even when it does not feel easy.Key Takeaways• Spiritual pruning leads to growth and renewal• Discomfort often comes before blessing• Pruning is a lifelong part of following God• Trusting God helps prepare us for what is nextYou can find Landry at:Honey Talk Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/11yoVcJ4GuItHYOIi9g3ME?si=G4e1h3bhTeKVp3IgX3sFWAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/honeytalkpodcast?igsh=dnF3NTd6cnk5NHpr

ADVENT WEEK THREE: JOYDecember 17 Rev. Jenny WynnTending Toward JusticeJohn 15:1-11I have said these things to you so that my joy may be in you and that your joymay be complete. John 15:11As a child, I was heartbroken watching my dad remove flowers and tomatoeson brand new plants before planting. I couldn't understand why he would dothis to the plant. Eventually, I learned about pinching, deadheading, and prun-ing. Each requires removing parts of plants at specific growth stages. Thisallows for redirection of energy for fuller growth and better tasting fruits. Ilearned careful tending leads to deep joy at harvest time.John 15:1-12 uses the metaphor of a gardener and a vine to illustrate an abid-ing relationship with God and Christ that is rooted in love. This relationshipproduces fruitful discipleship. When the vine branches stop producing fruit,they need some pruning to redirect energy toward what truly matters, love.In Advent, as we long for a fruitful future free from violence, scarcity, anddeath-dealing systems, we must ask: what needs pruning in our lives andcommunities? Perhaps our tendency to judge rather than love, our impulse tohoard resources instead of sharing with those in need, or our silence whenfacing injustice?Pruning may be difficult, but when harvest comes, when everyone has enough,communities are healed and restored, joy is made complete. Just as my fa-ther's careful removal of early fruit led to abundant tomatoes, spiritual pruningredirects our energy toward love and justice, and toward cultivating the worldthat we seek.Take time to notice moments when you're tempted to judge, hoard, or stay si-lent. In those moments, ask: “How can I redirect this energy toward love?” Letthese redirections be your pruning practice. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The online world is a weird place for Christians.You've got some legitimate life-changing, amazing, faithful humans doing amazing things as they partner with God in their business...Then you've got people who did it their way, and then label their success as God's doing...just to attract Christians into their orbit to monetize.In this conversation, Vince and Mukwenda talk about legitimately doing things differently. Allowing God to be a partner in your business. Letting go of outcomes. Worrying less about tactics and more about obedience.The answers aren't always what we want them to be, because the truth is, God disciplines those He loves. He prunes us so that we bear more fruit.There's no escaping the challenging times. The question is, what do we do in them?And how do we find peace within our businesses when it seems that business these days is all about hustle and grind and "being self made"?Find out in this epic talk.In this episode:0:00 Intro1:16 Faithustle origin story11:00 Where do the tactics come in?14:00 If God's not in your business...25:26 Open doors vs closed doors36:53 Being pruned41:00 Learn moreResources:Mukwenda on IG: https://www.instagram.com/thefaithustle/Faithustle: https://thefaithustle.com/tour---

Episode Overview In this powerhouse episode, John Kitchens sits down with Oklahoma City powerhouse and brokerage owner Will Mahan for a raw, real, and revealing conversation about leadership, obsession, building culture, and the evolution every top-producing agent must go through to truly become a CEO. Will takes us through his 15-year journey—from life insurance to top-tier real estate producer, to team leader, to eXp influencer, and now the founder of a rapidly growing hybrid brokerage built around entrepreneurship, investing, and true wealth creation. He breaks down why most agents stall out, why leadership matters more than ever, and how to build a business that aligns with your strengths, your energy, and your long-term vision. If you're craving clarity on scaling, culture, leadership, and building a business that actually gives you time, money, and location freedom, this episode will hit you right between the eyes. Key Topics Covered Will's Origin Story & Early Pivots How selling life insurance built the foundation for his real estate success Why obsession—not interest—is the real separator in this industry The mentors who shaped his business mindset and leadership style The CEO Shift: From Hustling to Building a Business How Will realized "commission checks" weren't the same as "building a business" The mindset traps that hit agents once they reach $250K… $500K… and even $1M GCI Why ego is the silent killer of progress Leadership, Culture, and Obsession The difference between being interested, committed, and obsessed Why humility is the single greatest leadership trait What Will looks for in mentors and why "yes-men" are dangerous The Decision to Launch His Own Brokerage The strategic thinking behind leaving eXp How he identified a massive gap in the OKC market The rise of the Hybrid Agent and why his brokerage attracts entrepreneurs, investors, and multi-cultural talent Building a culture where agents learn flipping, BRRRR, private money, and wealth-building methods—not just how to get commissions Why Most Agents Never Grow—Even at 7 Figures The harsh truth: agents stop doing what got them to success The false comfort of leverage when you don't reallocate your time correctly How agents accidentally sabotage their growth by abandoning the fundamentals Pruning for Growth: Cutting 30% of His Brokerage Why Will intentionally reduced his agent count to increase production The dramatic results: double the transactions with fewer agents What his top 25 agents do that the others don't: They show up They take notes They stay coachable They stay consistent The Heart of the Business: People, Passion, Purpose – Why leading with energy and passion fuels culture – The fulfillment that comes from watching agents become wealthier, empowered, and confident – How to create a business that supports your life—not the other way around Resources & Mentions – The Need to Lead by Dave Berke – Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink & Leif Babin – Agent to CEO Coaching Framework – John Kitchens Executive Coaching → JohnKitchens.coach Final Takeaway You don't build a real estate business by accident—you build it with clarity, consistency, leadership, and obsession. As Will demonstrates, the path to real freedom comes from knowing who you are, what energizes you, and building the business that aligns with that vision. "Show up with passion. Show up with energy.

Presented by Julie Busteed Do you like to work in the garden? I love to see the results of all the work—planting, watering, weeding and pruning. In John 15, Jesus teaches the Father is the gardener who lovingly tends the vine. Part of that tending is pruning. Pruning is essential to the life of a vine, and Scripture uses that imagery to help us understand our own life with Christ. In a vineyard, pruning renews the vine and shapes it. Without pruning, a vine grows wild. It will produce many shoots and leaves but far fewer grapes. The gardener cuts back healthy branches—not to harm the vine, but to help it focus its energy so it can thrive. Pruning makes room for new growth and greater fruitfulness. Pruning happens when the vine is dormant, after the harvest season. Even in dormancy, the vine is still alive and still supplying what the branches need. This resting period isn't wasted time; it's preparation. The vine is strengthening its core, preserving its energy, and getting ready for the next season of growth and fruitfulness. In the same way, God prunes us. Seasons of pruning might feel like cutting back, slowing down, or letting go. God may remove distractions, attitudes, habits, or commitments that keep us from bearing fruit. Sometimes he even prunes good things so better things can grow. These seasons can feel quiet—almost dormant—but God is still at work, nourishing, shaping, and preparing us. Pruning is so important because it leads to even greater fruit. Jesus says, every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit (John 15:2). Pruning isn't punishment—it’s intentional care from a Father who wants our lives to flourish. When we remain connected to Christ, the true Vine, we can trust his pruning is purposeful. It clears away what hinders us, renews us, and positions us for greater growth in the seasons to come. For the Christian, pruning is a mark of God's love and his desire to make our lives fruitful, meaningful, and deeply rooted in him. When we stay connected to Christ, every season—even the dormant ones—becomes part of his transforming work in us. Joseph's life in the Old Testament is a powerful picture of pruning before fruitfulness. He endured deep hardship—sold into slavery by his own brothers, then falsely accused and imprisoned. Yet through every season of suffering, God was shaping his character and preparing him for a greater purpose. In time, Joseph was elevated to second-in-command under Pharaoh, where he used his God-given wisdom to save Egypt and ultimately rescue the very family who had betrayed him. His story reminds us seasons of pruning often precede seasons of remarkable fruit. May you and I remain faithful—connected to the true Vine—even during the dormant times. Even when we are being pruned. Because God is a loving Gardner and is doing this for even greater fruit in our lives.

Growers are turning to AI for vineyard advice — but what happens when the algorithms get it wrong? In this episode, Fritz sits down with Texas A&M Extension Viticulture Specialist Dr. Justin Scheiner to put artificial intelligence to the test and reveal where it helps…and where it falls flat. Fritz and Justin walk through real vineyard questions — on pruning cuts, choosing between cane and spur pruning, designing an effective spray program, and diagnosing puzzling leaf symptoms — then grade the answers provided by AI tools like ChatGPT and Copilot. Justin explains why, despite its convenience, AI can't replace Extension or experienced viticulture support. He breaks down how human experts interpret nuance, adapt recommendations to site-specific realities, and help growers navigate complex issues like fungicide resistance and disease pressure — areas where AI often oversimplifies to a fault. Listeners will come away with a grounded perspective on how to responsibly use AI in vineyard decision-making: as a tool for learning, not a blueprint for management. Justin also shares updates on forward-facing research at Texas A&M, including irrigation strategies powered by sensors and machine learning, and new work aimed at improving winery efficiency. In this episode, you will hear: AI can provide helpful general information — but often misses context critical for vineyard decisions. Pruning advice from AI may be incomplete or incorrect; human expertise is still essential. Spray program recommendations from AI can be risky without resistance management and site-specific strategy. Leaf symptom diagnosis requires more than a photo — pattern, vine history, and testing matter.

Hello and welcome to this week's episode of the Veg Grower Podcast! I'm Richard, and my goal is to encourage and inspire you to grow more of your own food, no matter the space you have available. I share what I've been up to in my own allotment and kitchen garden here in Littlehampton on the south coast of the UK. After over 30 years of growing my own food, I'm still learning something new every single day. This week, I've been down on the allotment, getting stuck into some winter pruning, tending to my tools, and having a wander around the kitchen garden. Here's what's been happening. Winter Pruning It's that time of year to prune trees and bushes. I've been focusing on my apple and pear trees, both now fully dormant, making it easier to see the branches and plan the cuts. I start with the three Ds: Dead, Diseased, and Damaged branches. Clean, sharp secateurs are vital here to prevent spreading disease. These pruned branches go straight into the compost—yes, even the diseased ones, where they'll gradually break down over a few years. Next, I look for branches that cross or rub together and consider the overall shape and ventilation of the tree. Light and airflow are crucial for healthy growth, fruit production, and reducing fungal problems. One of my apple trees has been a bit of a challenge—it has a tendency to list over, despite staking. This week I hammered in a longer stake and tied the tree upright, then added straw mulch to protect the roots over winter. Mulching has worked really well this year, and I'm keen to continue using it wherever I can. Allotment Update Despite the cold weather, there's still plenty of life on the allotment. Some tender plants have succumbed to frost, but my brassicas and green manures are holding strong. The garlic is emerging nicely too, so I'm feeling optimistic about Christmas dinner straight from the garden! The council has been improving the roads and paths up to our allotment. The main track is still closed to vehicles, but it's looking much better than before. It's exciting to see this progress, although some neighbours have been trying to improve traction with old plant matter—trust me, it doesn't really work! After my allotment visit, I brought my tools home for a proper service. Tool Care Taking care of your garden tools is one of my passions. I give all my hand tools a thorough clean, sharpening, and treatment each year. Rust is removed, handles are sanded and treated with linseed oil, and metal parts are sharpened. I also use a bucket of sand mixed with used kitchen oil to store tools—it cleans, abrades, and coats them in one go. This simple routine keeps tools in great condition and ready to last for years. Chef Scott's Recipe of the Week This week, Chef Scott has been cooking Carrot and Parsnip Spiced Fritters. A brilliant way to use up stored root vegetables, these fritters are lightly spiced, crisp on the outside, and soft in the middle. Serve them with yoghurt or a poached egg—they're perfect as a light lunch, side dish, or garden snack. Ingredients: 2 medium carrots, grated 2 medium parsnips, grated 1 small onion, finely chopped 2 crushed garlic cloves 1 tsp ground cumin ½ tsp smoked paprika ½ tsp ground coriander 2 eggs 4 tbsp plain flour Salt and pepper Oil for frying Chopped parsley or coriander to garnish Method: Squeeze out excess moisture from the grated carrots and parsnips. Mix with onion, garlic, spices, eggs, flour, salt, and pepper. Adjust flour if too wet. Heat a splash of oil in a pan, spoon in mixture, flatten slightly, and fry 3–4 minutes per side until golden. Drain on kitchen paper and garnish. Feel free to swap spices—curry powder, garam masala, chilli flakes, or even grated apple can give a different flavour twist. Seed Planning Winter is also the perfect time to go through your seed collection.

Master Gardener Emily Clem talks with Urban Regional Extension Agent, Marcus Garner, about how to winterize your garden. Topics include pruning, mulching, and frost protection covers for plants during hard freezes. He also stresses the importance of tool maintenance and storage during the winter and suggests using the cold months to take inventory and plan for next year's garden. Other tips include wildlife deterrent, weather monitoring, and soil testing.Links:https://www.aces.edu/  (Alabama Cooperative Extension)https://mastergardeners-limestonecountyalabama.org/https://www.alcpl.org/Have questions about this episode?

✨ God's Pruning Shears Are Out — Preparing the Remnant for Kingdom Realignment | KIB 508

In this episode, we are discussing our next spiritual formation discipline: Pruning & Simplicity. Pruning is about cutting back so we can grow more fruitfully. It's recognizing the areas of our lives that are chaotic or distracting and making intentional choices to remove them. As we prune, we create space for God to work in us and in those around us. Simplicity goes hand-in-hand with pruning. It's about streamlining our lives so we can focus on who God is and what He wants for us. It's a reminder that busyness does not equal productivity, and that true spiritual growth often comes from removing the unnecessary. We'll challenge you to ask: What is God calling you to prune in your life? and explore how simplicity can lead to a deeper connection with Him. Episode Highlights:  Spiritual Formation Pruning Simplicity  Slowing Down to the Pace of God   Find More on Hope Bridge: Visit Our Website  Follow us on Instagram Follow us on Facebook  Join our Prayer Network! Join The Bridge  

Are you in a season where God is cutting things back—relationships, opportunities, plans you thought were His will? You're not alone. This message reveals the surprising truth Jesus taught in John 15: God prunes not because you're failing, but because you're fruitful. In this sermon, Morgan shares a raw personal testimony of fasting, breakthrough, and unexpected loss—followed by the revelation that pruning is God's preparation for multiplication. Through Scripture, biblical examples, and practical wisdom, you'll discover: - Why God removes good things to prepare you for greater things - The five blessings hidden in every pruning season - The danger of resisting God's pruning—and the freedom of surrendering to it - How to survive “the drift” between cutting and new growth - How trust, thanksgiving, and perseverance unlock God's next chapter for your life If you've been confused, hurting, or wondering where God is in this season, this message will help you see His hand clearly, love His process deeply, and embrace the increase He's preparing you to carry. This isn't loss. It's love. It's preparation. And it's the doorway to your next harvest.

What makes a city full of trees feel cooler, safer and more alive?  How do you actually keep that canopy thriving? And what illnesses and diseases should you be looking out for?  Lindsay and Bruce welcome City Forester Jeff Myers, a Certified Master Arborist, to answer those questions and many more!  With nearly three decades serving our City, Jeff pulls back the curtain on how suburban forestry really works, from the science behind pruning to the system that tracks our 33,000 street trees.We walk through the boundaries between city and resident responsibilities and why Dublin pairs sidewalk repairs with supervised root pruning. Jeff explains why late fall is your prime time for pruning, what 'live crown ratio' means for a tree's stability, and how different species demand different pruning cycles. You'll hear why topping weakens trees, how to use the three‑cut method, and what a good branch collar cut looks like.We also get candid about current threats and trends. Anthracnose flared up after a cool, wet spring while emerald ash borer remains at low but watchful levels. Drought stress lingers into the next season, so Jeff lays out when watering helps and when the root zone is simply too big to make a difference. Along the way, he shares how GIS maps show live pruning zones plus why Dublin holds contractors to a higher bar with on‑site certified arborists on every job. If you care about your street, your shade and your safety, this conversation gives you clear, actionable guidance to protect the trees you love. Follow the show and share it with a neighbor who has 'that one problem maple'. We guarantee they'll thank you for it!

Pruned to Bear MoreIn the finale of our Difference Makers series, Pastor Brad teaches from John 15 on abiding and pruning. Abiding isn't a quick recharge—it's a plugged-in life with Jesus that produces real fruit. Pruning removes what siphons our energy into “leaves” (appearance, busyness, distractions) so more life can flow into what matters most: love, joy, peace, and the good of others. We get practical with three areas—schedule, downtime, and relationships—and ask God for courage to cut what keeps us from fruitfulness.DATE: 08/31/2025SPEAKER: Brad Goode

In this heartfelt episode of Linking Arms, host Nadine Dyer sits down with Danica Eyler, wife, mom, attorney, magistrate judge, and candidate for Hamilton Superior Court 8, to talk about “Pruning for Purpose.” Danica opens up about her early life growing up with young parents, the challenges of a turbulent family dynamic, and the independence she was forced to develop at a young age. From buying her own bed and paying her own bills as a teenager to moving out before high school graduation, Danica reflects on how those difficult seasons shaped her character, resilience, and faith. She shares how her journey from a small southern Indiana town to becoming an attorney and now running for judge was marked by constant pruning—seasons where God removed comfort to prepare her for greater purpose. Despite hardship, she views those moments as part of her spiritual refinement, preparing her to serve others with empathy and integrity in both her personal and professional life. As the conversation closes, Danica offers encouragement to women navigating hard seasons: to trust that God uses everything for good, even when it feels unfair or overwhelming. The pruning, she reminds listeners, is never wasted—it's part of the equipping for the purpose God has ahead. Special Guest: Danica Eyler.

Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff made headlines when they placed a large share of the blame on Israel for failed peace talks in a 60 Minutes interview.  PA Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa outlined a $67 billion plan to rebuild Gaza, while President Trump prepares to host Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to discuss potential normalization with Israel. Netanyahu reaffirmed that the war will end only after Hamas is disarmed and Gaza is demilitarized, as U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio cautioned Israel against annexation steps that could complicate peace efforts.
