Israel was a covenant nation under God. As a people, they were to be Holy, set apart, and these are the rules He has established, including the consequences for breaking those rules.02:32 - clarification on a point made in last week's study (Leviticus 19.12-37) dealing with immigration in the United States and not “mistreating the foreigner residing among us” - Lev 19.33-34.03:22 - what is the two-fold sense of scripture?06:50 - Do we have to follow all of the laws that are outlined in Leviticus?06:50 - What are the different kinds of laws in Leviticus and which should we follow today? Moral Laws - These laws are timeless and should be followed today. These laws reflect God's character. Each of the laws that qualify as a “moral law” is reaffirmed and restated in the New Testament. A few examples of these types of laws include: Idolatry - 1 Cor 6.9-10; 10.14; Adultery - Matt 5.27-28; and Sexual immorality - 1 Cor 6.18, 1 Thes 4.3, Eph 5.3 and Gal 5.Ceremonial Laws - These laws symbolize separation from paganism and are not binding for today but are useful for understanding holiness (being set apart). Examples of these laws include eating clean and unclean animals and how an Israelite was to cut their hair (Lev 19.28). We are not called to follow these laws today. Here are a few New Testament perspectives on these laws: Mat 15.10-11 and Rom 14.14-18.Civil/Judicial Laws - These are laws related to the governance of the Theocracy of Israel in its day. These laws include punishments such as stoning and burning, as well as being isolated from the community. An example of this is the punishment for adultery (as stated in Lev 20.10) of stoning. John 8.1-11 shows Jesus' perspective on this punishment. See also 1 Peter 2.11-17 and Galatians 520:42 - Leviticus 20.1-5 - Child Sacrifices to Molek. Included in this discussion are Bible verses: Lev 18.21 as well as Deu 12.31, 18.10; Jer 7.31, 32.35 and 2 Kings 16.3, 21.6.

Forrest is joined by one of the world's top executive coaches, Joe Hudson, for a conversation focused on how we can reduce self-punishment and live more fulfilling lives by welcoming our emotions and loosening identification with the critical mind. They discuss Joe's “The Golden Algorithm” - our tendency to recreate the emotions we try to avoid - and explore the three pillars of emotional fluidity, cognitive clarity, and nervous system awareness. Joe emphasizes how good change usually comes from reconnecting with who we already are, and welcoming fear, pleasure, and imperfection along the way. Really enjoyed this one, I hope you do too!

The reading of this week's lesson.

When men cut themselves off from the transcendent, nihilism follows—and souls collapse.In this conversation, Paul and Fr. John Strickland unpack Dostoevsky vs. Nietzsche: why “will to power” ends in self-destruction, how Crime and Punishment exposes the cost of transgression, and what an Orthodox return to order, hierarchy, and worship offers modern men. If you're disillusioned with the culture and hungry for strength, stability, and brotherhood, this is for you.Ready to stop drifting and build on rock?Join our Genesis Workshop—a practical on-ramp into traditional wisdom, daily disciplines, and a living brotherhood of men walking toward God.Start here → https://pathofmanliness.notion.site/genesis-workshopSubscribe to our channel to stay updated on our latest content.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXPMCOblA-vdnIpE-4BR8PA?sub_confirmation=1Read more about our work:http://pathofmanliness.com#Dostoevsky #Nietzsche #OrthodoxChristianity #traditionalmasculinity #nihilism #CrimeAndPunishment #JordanPeterson #brotherhood #menscommunity #tradition

This MBM conversation is with Nadira Khatun, author of the book ‘Postcolonial Bollywood and Muslim Identity: Production, Representation, and Reception'. Through this book, Nadira traces the representation of Muslim characters within Hindi cinema in post-partition India, and how the socio-political and economic factors have contributed to varied representations across decades.We discuss the influence of Bollywood on our own personal upbringings, how cinematic representations contributed to the majoritarian perceptions of the Muslim identity and its interactions with us. From films like Mughal-e-Azam and Mammo to Gully Boy and Superboys of Malegaon, we talk about the evolution of Muslim characters and what would it take to make a movie with a truly effortless Muslim representation that does not fulfil any expectation or stereotype.We also discuss the many failings of Hindi film-makers in representing Muslim women - who were either exoticised or oppressed, leaving us with the hope that there is a whole world to cover when it comes to exciting possibilities in the space of truly bebaak representations.About Nadira KhatunNadira Khatun is associate professor at School of Communications, XIM University, Bhubaneswar, Odisha. She was visiting assistant professor at McMaster University, Hamilton from January 2021 to January 2022. She has contributed to academic journals and edited volumes on social media, Bollywood and Muslim identity. Her book tilted, Postcolonial Bollywood and Muslim Identity: Production, Representation, and Reception was released in August 2024 with Oxford University Press, UK.

Our journey in exploring the death of Jesus takes us to many people's favourite golf club in our atonement bag of theories — Penal Substitution. It is an explanation that has been routinely accepted as the dominant understanding of the cross (at least within the Latin Western Protestant Church). However, it is also a theory that has had lasting and damaging consequences for our understanding of God's personhood and character.

The conversation delves into the concept of deterrence in crime prevention, emphasizing that the likelihood of being caught and punished is a more significant factor than the severity of the punishment itself. It highlights that longer sentences do not effectively deter crime if offenders believe they can evade capture.In the intricate world of criminal law, understanding the principles of punishment and sentencing is crucial. This post delves into the philosophical debates and practical applications that shape the justice system today. From historical shifts to modern challenges, we explore the core tensions and evolving standards that define this field.The Evolution of Punishment: Historically, punishment has transformed from physical and public sanctions to more regulated and humane approaches. This shift reflects changing societal values and the evolving standards of decency that courts use today. The question remains: why do we punish at all? This leads us to the two major philosophies in sentencing—utilitarianism and retribution.Retribution vs. Utilitarianism: Retribution focuses on the past act, advocating for punishment as a moral necessity. In contrast, utilitarianism looks forward, weighing the societal benefits against the costs of punishment. This philosophical divide influences every sentencing decision, from deterrence to rehabilitation.The Role of Deterrence: Deterrence is a key goal in utilitarian sentencing, aiming to prevent future crimes. However, the effectiveness of deterrence is debated, with studies showing that the certainty of punishment is more impactful than its severity. This insight challenges the traditional reliance on harsh sentences as a deterrent.Constitutional Limits and the Eighth Amendment: The Eighth Amendment serves as a constitutional check against excessive punishment. Its interpretation has led to significant legal precedents, particularly in capital cases. The amendment's role in non-capital cases, however, remains a topic of debate, with courts often deferring to legislative policy choices.The landscape of punishment and sentencing is complex, shaped by historical, philosophical, and legal factors. As we navigate these challenges, the balance between retribution and utilitarian goals continues to evolve. Understanding these dynamics is essential for anyone studying or practicing criminal law.Subscribe Now: Stay informed on the latest developments in criminal law by subscribing.TakeawaysThe deterrent effect of certainty is much stronger than severity.Longer sentences are ineffective if offenders think they can escape punishment.Severity deters only when the certainty of being caught is high.Offenders' calculations are influenced more by perceived chances of getting caught than by potential penalties.Understanding offender behavior is crucial for effective crime prevention strategies.Policies should focus on increasing the likelihood of apprehension rather than just increasing penalties.The relationship between certainty and severity is complex and requires careful consideration.Effective deterrence strategies must address the mindset of potential offenders.Crime prevention efforts should prioritize certainty over severity in their approaches.Research consistently supports the importance of certainty in deterrence.deterrence, crime prevention, certainty, punishment, severity, offender behavior

Are you a driven mom who wants to be present—but you're drowning in overwhelm and “control mode”?This conversation shows you how to get crystal-clear on your family vision, build secure attachment/connection, and set firm, kind boundaries so kids become self-directed—without you turning into the “mean, controlling parent.”In this candid episode, Greg and Rachel break down the yin–yang of parenting—high standards + healthy surrender—so you can lead your family without micromanaging. You'll learn time-chunking, strategic disengagement, and simple charts & systems (starting with the morning routine) that create calm, predictable days. We also unpack why quality and quantity time (especially in key developmental years) is the foundation of trust, attachment, and influence.If you've ever thought, “I've tried everything,” this is your roadmap to clarity, consistency, and connection—without burnout.Key Takeaways✅ Vision first: You can't hit a target you don't have—define your family vision and align daily “micro-visions.”✅ Attachment over control: Connection creates cooperation; control breeds rebellion or resentment.✅ Quality and quantity time: Presence (especially ages 0–6, and up to 25) builds trust and influence.✅ Boundaries you honor: Time-chunking + strategic disengagement protect work and family time.✅ Systems over stress: Start with a morning routine chart; train, then let kids choose how within clear boundaries.✅ Lead without micromanaging: Be playful + firm on non-negotiables; give freedom on details.✅ The obstacle is the way: Overwhelm signals where to build skills and systems next.Memorable Quotes

Parenting a child who doesn't respond to sticker charts, time-outs, or threats can feel defeating. You've tried rewards, consequences, and everything in between—and still the meltdowns, backtalk, and battles keep happening. You're not alone.In this episode, I explain why rewards and consequences don't land for dysregulated kids and what you can do instead. You'll learn the brain science behind why your child can't connect actions to outcomes in meltdown mode, plus practical strategies to shift from frustration to regulation.Why don't rewards and consequences work for my child?Many parents wonder why their child's behavior doesn't change despite sticker charts, time out, or taking away toys. The truth is:A dysregulated brain can't learn. When kids are in survival mode, their emotional brain takes over and logic shuts down.Rewards only stick when the brain is calm. Extrinsic rewards like tangible rewards or material rewards can't replace intrinsic motivation.Consequences may backfire. Punishment often increases frustration, lowers a child's self-esteem, and damages connection.It's not bad parenting—it's a dysregulated brain. Let's calm the brain first so your child can actually absorb lessons and develop lasting skills.How do I respond when my child's behavior feels out of control?When your child's actions push every button you have, it's tempting to react with harsher discipline. But behavior is communication, and what looks like “bad behavior” is often a stress response.Here's what helps instead:Pause before reacting. Ask yourself: “Is my child regulated enough for this to land?”Co-regulate first. A calm presence, gentle tone, and predictable routines teach safe and appropriate behavior more than threats ever will.Connection before correction. When your child feels seen and safe, they're far more likely to return to positive behaviors.This shift helps your child learn that they're not a “bad kid,” but a person developing the ability to manage emotions and actions.Want to stay calm when your child pushes every button?Become a Dysregulation Insider VIP and get the FREE Regulation Rescue Kit—your step-by-step guide to stop oppositional behaviors without yelling or giving in.Go to www.drroseann.com/newsletter and grab your kit today.What can I do to actually teach my child positive behaviors?Kids don't learn self-control through punishment—they learn through practice in everyday life when they're calm.Model regulation. Show how adults handle frustration with empathy and consistency.Teach in calm moments. Coping skills, flexibility, and problem-solving only stick when your child is regulated.Use natural consequences. These are more effective than arbitrary punishments because they're tied to specific behaviors.For example, if your child forgets homework, the natural consequence is explaining to their teacher—not losing screen time.Encourage effort, not just results. Praise hard work, practice, and small successes to build a child's self-esteem and intrinsic motivation.Remember, positive reinforcement doesn't mean bribery—it means helping your child connect actions to outcomes in a way that builds confidence and responsibility.Want real tools that actually work in the heat of a meltdown?

Parents most outlandish punishments for their kids!

Parents most outlandish punishments for their kids!

Parents most outlandish punishments for their kids!

In this episode of Arise + Abide, Curtis and Sally read Hosea chapter 9 and reflect on the painful consequences of Israel's unfaithfulness to God. As Hosea announces the nation's coming punishment, the chapter reveals both the grief and justice of God—how His love has been betrayed by those who turned to idols and false gods. Israel's worship has become distorted, their festivals corrupted, and their trust misplaced in fertility gods that cannot bless or sustain them. Curtis and Sally discuss how God's judgment in this passage is not arbitrary but the natural result of Israel's choices. When they reject His covenant, He allows them to experience the emptiness of what they have chosen. Yet even in these harsh words, the story reminds listeners that God's discipline flows from love—a desire to bring His people back to truth and life. Drawing parallels to today, the hosts explore how humanity still resists God's correction and dismisses His messengers as “fools.” Following Jesus means humbly listening, turning back when corrected, and surrendering self-made paths to walk in His way. Though Hosea 9 speaks of rejection, it ultimately points toward restoration—when “not loved” will once again become “the ones I love.”

Are you tired of hearing about “gentle parenting” — but still want to raise kind, confident, and emotionally intelligent kids?In this powerful episode, Greg and Rachel Denning unpack The Truth About Gentle Parenting — what works, what backfires, and what extraordinary parents are using instead.They reveal how gentle parenting often gets misapplied as permissive parenting, leaving parents exhausted, burned out, and unsure how to hold boundaries without becoming authoritarian. The Dennings share a better, more effective approach — one that blends empathy and structure, kindness and firmness, compassion and clarity.They explain how to develop your parenting intuition, create emotional safety without losing authority, and respond to misbehavior without yelling, punishing, or shaming. You'll learn how to raise respectful, resilient kids while staying calm, confident, and connected — even in the toughest parenting moments.Key Takeaways✅ True “gentle” parenting means connection with boundaries, not permissiveness.✅ Kids feel safest when parents are both kind and firm.✅ Respect doesn't mean letting your child lead — it means guiding with love and clarity.✅ Emotional awareness + structure = long-term cooperation and trust.✅ You can't pour from an empty cup — process your own triggers to parent authentically.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Extraordinary Parenting12:20 The Nuances of Gentle Parenting30:41 Pros and Cons of Gentle Parenting41:02 Navigating Disappointment in Parenting47:01 The Importance of Setting Expectations50:10 Balancing Empathy and Boundaries56:13 Authenticity in Parenting01:04:20 The Shift Towards Hybrid Parenting01:17:55 The Path to Effective ParentingMemorable Quotes

VIOLENT Black SCUMBAGS FIND OUT PUNISHMENT is coming! FAFO!

Fr. Mike focuses on the theme of disciplining children, reflected in our readings from Sirach and Proverbs today. He clarifies that there is a crucial difference between discipline and destruction, and emphasizes that disciplining children should always be grounded in love and oriented towards their success in the future. Today's readings 1 Maccabees 12, Sirach 30-31, and Proverbs 23:13-16. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

When a child feels overwhelmed, their autonomic nervous system kicks into a stress response. Logic shuts down, emotional regulation goes offline, and no punishment in the world can teach better behavior in that moment. That's why we have to calm the brain first. When we do, co-regulation creates emotional resilience, nurtures healthy relationships, and supports lasting nervous system regulation—for our kids and for us.In this episode, I share why nervous system co-regulation beats consequences every time and how you can begin using simple, practical strategies to help your child move from survival mode into a calmer, more regulated state.Why don't consequences work when my child is dysregulated?When kids are in meltdown mode, their autonomic nervous system is in fight-flight-freeze. Logic and reasoning are shut down.Punishment adds shame and fear—which makes behavior worse, not better.A stressed brain can't learn. The sympathetic nervous system is in survival mode.Regulation must come before correction. Calm brains are the only brains that can take feedback.Behavior is communication. If your child is screaming, throwing things, or shutting down, it's their nervous system saying, “I feel unsafe.”How can I calm my child's brain when they're overwhelmed?Co-regulation begins with your nervous system. You can't expect a child to self-regulate if you're dysregulated too.Anchor yourself first: use deep breaths, a soft tone, or grounding mantras.Offer presence over words. Sometimes just eye contact, gentle rhythm, or physical closeness (like deep pressure hugs) communicates safety.Avoid escalating threats. Instead of, “You're losing your tablet all week,” try, “I see you're overwhelmed. Let's breathe together.”Use environmental signals. Soft voice, calm body language, and steady breathing send cues of safety to your child's nervous system.Co-regulating teaches children over time that they can move from dysregulation to calm with supportive relationships.Want a calmer home in just one week? Try Quick Calm—your 7-day reset designed to help busy parents raise a more regulated child.What does nervous system co-regulation look like in real life?Parents often ask, “But what do I do when the meltdown starts?” Here's what it looks like in daily life:Less talking, more being. Put down the lecture until your child reaches a regulated state.Mirror calm. Your facial expressions and body language send powerful signals through mirror neurons.Stay nearby. Instead of sending your child away (“Go calm down in your room”), model calm by staying present.Shift from red to yellow to green. Once they move out of the red zone of survival mode, you can use words to guide them back to balance.These small but profound effects build emotional connection and nurturing relationships—the foundation for healthy child development.You don't have to figure this out alone.Become a Dysregulation Insider VIP and get your FREE Regulation Rescue Kit: How to Stay Calm When Your Child Pushes Your Buttons and Stop Oppositional Behaviors.Head to www.drroseann.com/newsletter and start your calm parenting journey today.How can co-regulation help me as a...

Your child smashes a TV. Or floods the bathroom. Or writes off the car. What now? In this episode, Justin and Kylie unpack one of parenting’s trickiest questions: should our kids pay for the damage they cause? You’ll hear real family stories, a breakdown of natural vs logical consequences, and a powerful mindset shift that helps kids take ownership without shame — and keeps relationships intact. KEY POINTS Why “natural consequences” aren’t the same as punishment How to teach accountability without blame, guilt, or control The “OAR vs BED” principle: helping kids own mistakes and grow from them When (and how) to talk about reparations or paying for damages How to balance compassion, responsibility, and fairness QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “Discipline isn’t about punishment. It’s about problem solving — together.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Happy Families Membership 10 Things Every Parent Needs to Know by Dr Justin Coulson Entitled [Upcoming Live Webinar] ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS When something breaks, pause before reacting. Ask: “What does my child need right now?” — not “What consequence fits this?” Guide your child toward ownership, accountability, and reparation. Keep the relationship more important than the thing.

In this liberating episode, Jennifer explores one of A Course in Miracles' most radical teachings from Chapter 19: that there is no sin, only mistakes that call for correction rather than punishment. She shares her personal journey from being attracted to punishment and making others (and herself) feel guilty to recognizing that punishment is actually guilt's protection mechanism that keeps the illusion of sin alive. Drawing from the section "The Unreality of Sin," Jennifer explains how the ego brings sin to fear demanding punishment, when actually love is what's being called for, and how she transformed her life by shifting from labeling things as "sins" to seeing them as "tactical errors" deserving compassion and correction - a shift that dissolved her own unconscious guilt and freed her from self-destructive patterns including alcohol abuse.To learn more about ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠A Course in Miracles⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ please visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Powerofloveministry.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, Elle and I are hitting the road — literally! We're recording from the highway on our way to the Maker's Mark Star Hill Farm in Kentucky. Along the ride, we dive into how Poker Power is teaching high school girls valuable life lessons through the game of poker, and discuss a fascinating Wired story where a journalist teams up with a hacker to uncover potential security flaws in automatic card shufflers. On Call the Floor, Elliott rules on a wild situation involving a full-on chip-throwing meltdown that has to be heard to be believed. Then, in this week's Hand of the Week, I take another spin on the Wheel of Punishment before Patrick and I break down a hand played with  10-9 off-suit from the button. And finally, I wrap things up with Joe's One Outer, where I share how the game of poker can teach us a few lessons about life on the road.

Do you want your kids to love learning—and become independent, capable adults who can handle life?Most parents want extraordinary results but stick to ordinary systems. In this video, Greg & Rachel explain why comfortable, convenient methods don't produce extraordinary results and why true education is lighting a fire, not filling a bucket. You'll see how to expand beyond the home with worldschooling and real-world experiences, use modern tools for a world-class education, and reclaim both influence and joy in your family culture.Key Takeaways✅ Method determines outcome—change methods to change results.✅ Worldschooling turns lessons into experiences kids never forget.✅ Raise independent thinkers through self-directed learning.✅ Time with your kids = influence (quantity and quality).✅ Use AI/online platforms to access the best teachers on earth.✅ Save “academic rigor” for the right season—after love of learning ignites.Chapters00:00 Welcome to Extraordinary Family Life01:06 The Importance of Intentional Living02:32 Extraordinary Education Through World Schooling05:02 The Limitations of Public Schooling06:41 The Need for Self-Directed Learning08:04 Experiential Learning and Travel09:42 The Impact of Environment on Learning11:30 Navigating Social Experiences for Kids11:52 Conclusion and Final Thoughts15:41 The Transformative Power of Modern Education19:47 Leveraging Online Resources for Homeschooling22:12 Balancing Personal Time and Homeschooling25:16 Quality Time vs. Quantity Time in Education26:44 Redefining Social Skills Beyond School27:25 Overcoming Personal Limitations as a Parent28:06 Embracing the Journey of Homeschooling30:13 The Importance of Following Interests in LearningMemorable Quotes

Most leaders are wired to start things. But what if the most powerful thing you could do as a leader isn't to start something new — it's to stop something old?In this episode, Jon Chasteen unpacks The Power to Stop — a countercultural principle that every ReLeader eventually has to learn. Using Michelangelo's sculpture of David as a metaphor, Jon explores how greatness is often revealed not by what we add, but by what we remove. Just like a sculptor chips away what doesn't belong, effective leaders must learn to prune, pause, and say no — not out of weakness, but out of wisdom.Through Scripture and stories, Jon walks through four truths every ReLeader needs to understand:1️⃣ Pruning Isn't Punishment; It's Preparation — God cuts back fruitful branches so they can produce even more.2️⃣ Stopping Isn't Quitting; It's Trusting — Like Moses learning from Jethro, wise leaders know when to let go and share the load.3️⃣ Saying No Isn't Weakness; It's Wisdom — Boundaries create margin, and margin fuels mission.4️⃣ Less Isn't Loss; It's Leverage — Jesus wasn't afraid of smaller crowds because He knew focus multiplies fruit.

Ever notice how sometimes choosing not to drink feels less like a positive choice and more like self-punishment?   Maybe the commitment was clear in your mind - tonight, no drinks. But then you watch someone order that dirty martini while you sit with your water, and suddenly saying no feels like you're punishing yourself. That familiar tension rises up: the part of you that wants to stick to your word battling against the part that feels resentful.   If not drinking feels like punishment, you're not alone. Listen in this week to discover why you might be relying on virtue as a way to decline a drink, the reason self-punishment doesn't work, and what to do instead to create lasting change.   Find a personalized approach that helps you change your habit in my new book, The Ultimate Guide to Drinking Less, here: https://rachelhart.com/guide/   Discover alternative approaches to drinking less inside our membership program, Take a Break: https://rachelhart.com/tab/   Get the full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://rachelhart.com/442

Does “launching” your teen mean kicking them out at 18?If your child only becomes capable when you separate, something's broken. In this video, Greg & Rachel Denning expose why “move out at 18” is a modern psyop that weakens families and robs teens of real independence. You'll learn how to build capability before 18—so your young adult is confident, competent, and contributing while still benefiting from mentorship, connection, and family legacy.Key Takeaways✅ Failure to launch is a parenting-skill problem, not an age problem.✅ By mid-teens, kids should be capable, confident, and contributing at home.✅ Comfort & convenience sabotage growth—skills and systems build it.✅ Teach life skills early: cooking, cleaning, finances, self-management.✅ Mentor through 16–25: support big decisions, deepen character, build skills.✅ Generational families win: keep wisdom, wealth, and warmth under one roof.✅ If independence only follows separation, change the method—not the goal.Chapters00:00 Epic Adventures and Homecomings03:02 Rethinking the 18-Year-Old Move-Out Myth06:06 The Impact of Cultural Norms on Independence08:43 Parenting Skills and the Failure to Launch11:54 The Role of Education in Young Adulthood14:41 Cultural Perspectives on Family Dynamics17:44 The Dangers of Social Media Influence20:31 Reframing Independence and Parenting Strategies27:42 Empowering Children with Life Skills34:52 The Importance of Parenting Techniques44:43 Building a Family Legacy and Financial StabilityMemorable Quotes

2 Chronicles 5 describes the ark being brought to Zion and its resting place in the Most Holy Place. The final picture of immortality the cherubim - represents the unity of believers with their Lord.; as it was made out of the same piece of gold and perpetually recognising his sacrifice and glory. The choir praises the "chesed" i.e. the lovingkindness of Yahweh. Chapter 6 describes Solomon's prayer at the dedication of the house. Note the humility of Solomon as he offers his prayer and the repetition of the phrase - "Hear in heaven, Your dwelling place". No physical house can contain our magnificent Sovereign. The whole ceremony is blessed by God. Note the pertinence of the words that we must extend the LORD's tender mercies i.e. loving kindnesses to others as we surely recognise our need of Yahweh's mercy. Punishment would be brought to Israel for their disobedience to their Sovereign to bring the nation back to God. Once again there is an allusion to Psalm 132. Ezekiel 41 tells us of the inner temple and the folding double leaved doors. Verses 1-26 describe the entrance rooms to the inner circle of buildings which constitute the Most Holy Place. Readers are encouraged to consider the writings of Henry Sulley - an architect from Nottingham - on Ezekiel chapters 40-48 in his book titled "The Temple of Ezekiel's Prophecy". Palm trees and cherubic figures are to befound in the vestibules of the Most Holy Place. Ezekiel's enthusiasm was heightened by the coming visionof the future house of prayer for all nations. May our contemplation of this glorious day likewise enlivenour hope and desire to likewise be there.John 7 records an unannounced visit of Jesus to Jerusalem at the Feast of Booths i.e. Tabernacles. There was a division among the people, as to whether our Lord was a good man, or a deceiver of the people. Jesus arrives in the middle of the feast. Many were convinced that he was the Christ. Although officers from the Sanhedrin were sent to arrest Jesus they could not do so because his time had not yet come. Jesus prophesied to them of his ascent to heaven and the giving of the Holy Spirit. Some said that this was the prophet like Moses. Others rejected this idea just because our Lord was from Galilee. Jesus just like Jonah, also from Gath-Hepher in Galilee told his audience to consider the sign of the prophet Jonah. We have seen in our earlier studies that the sign had many levels of significance and spoke primarily both of Jesus' resurrection and witnessing.Thanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow

Are you torn between protecting your kids' mental health and preparing them for real-world stress?Most parents feel this tension—and many swing too far toward pressure or protection. In this video, Greg & Rachel share a better path: don't inflict pressure—be the anchor while your kids face it. You'll learn how to build grit through trust, identity, and modeling, so challenge actually strengthens your bond instead of breaking it.What we cover:Identity over willpower: why saying “I'm not a smoker” beats “I'm trying to quit.”Anchor, don't apply pressure: your job is safety + modeling, not manufactured hardship.Results don't lie: how your life becomes the proof your kids can't ignore.Trust first, then stretch: push to the “next rock,” then keep your promise and carry them.Adjust your strategy: when you “get punched in the face,” learn, adapt, iterate.Do hard things yourself: kids spot hypocrisy—lead from the front.Make discomfort enjoyable: turn tough conversations, workouts, and cold plunges into shared wins.Big Idea: Grit grows in connection. When kids know you'll both challenge and carry them, they lean in, try again, and adopt a new identity that sustains lifelong habits.Key Takeaways✅ Be the anchor, not the pressure. Safety + example > force.✅ Model hard things. If you don't, they won't.✅ Identity drives habits. Become the family who does the hard, good things.✅ Keep promises. Stretch to the “next rock,” then carry—that's how trust is built.✅ Iterate, don't implode. When it's not working, change your approach, not your ideals.Chapters00:00 New Beginnings and Reflections03:18 Goal Setting and Identity Transformation03:31 Preparing Kids for Life's Challenges05:02 The Balance of Comfort and Growth05:30 Building Resilience Through Experience08:44 Adapting to Life's Punches09:59 The Journey of Parenting and Education12:19 Embracing Failure in Business and Parenting13:59 The Importance of Adaptability and Learning17:21 Influence Through Results and Personal Example19:32 Living an Extraordinary Life as a Family22:34 Teaching Resilience Through Real-Life Challenges24:58 Iterative Learning and Effective Communication28:39 The Power of Persistence in ParentingMemorable Quotes

Are you afraid to give something up—even if you know it's holding your family back?What if the “sacrifice” you're resisting is the exact bridge to the life you actually want?In this powerful conversation, Greg and Rachel answer a listener's question inspired by James Allen: “He who would attain highly must sacrifice greatly.” They share the real sacrifices they made to build an extraordinary family life—from walking away from comfort and conformity to investing tens of thousands into personal growth, ditching entertainment for education, and choosing experiences and character over stuff. You'll learn how to overcome the fear of loss, handle others' opinions, and trade short-term ease for long-term joy, health, and purpose.Big idea: It's hard to call it a “sacrifice” when what you get back is better than what you gave up. Bottom line: The most important investment you'll ever make is in yourself—and then in your spouse and kids.Key Takeaways:✅ Comfort is costly—trade it for purpose, health, and momentum.✅ Invest in yourself first, then your spouse and kids.✅ Entertainment steals growth; education multiplies it.✅ Ditch “peacock pageantry”—results beat credentials.✅ Own your outcomes—no blame, no excuses.✅ Failure ≠ final—it's fertilizer for your future.Chapters00:00 Daily Sacrifices for a Better Life23:14 Intentional Living and Personal Responsibility28:39 The Rewards of Sacrifice31:27 EFL YouTube Outro Full Updated.mp4Memorable Quotes
